A supercell is a thunderstorm that is characterized by the presence of a mesocyclone: a deep, persistently rotating updraft.1 For this reason, these storms are sometimes referred to as rotating thunderstorms.2 Of the four classifications of thunderstorms (supercell, squall line, multi-cell, and single-cell), supercells are the overall least common and have the potential to be the most severe. Supercells are often isolated from other thunderstorms, and can dominate the local weather up to 32 kilometres (20 mi) away.
Supercells are often put into three classification types: Classic, Low-precipitation (LP) and High-precipitation (HP). LP supercells are usually found in climates that are more arid, such as the high plains of the United States, and HP supercells are most often found in moist climates. Supercells can occur anywhere in the world under the right pre-existing weather conditions, but they are most common in the Great Plains of the United States, an area known as Tornado Alley.
Supercells are usually found isolated from other thunderstorms, although they can sometimes be embedded in a squall line. Typically, supercells are found in the warm sector of a low pressure system propagating generally in a north easterly direction in line with the cold front of the low pressure system. Because they can last for hours, they are known as quasi-steady-state storms. Supercells have the capability to deviate from the mean wind. If they track to the right or left of the mean wind (relative to the vertical wind shear), they are said to be "right-movers" or "left-movers," respectively. Supercells can sometimes develop two separate updrafts with opposing rotations, which splits the storm into two supercells: one left-mover and one right-mover.
Supercells can be any size – large or small, low or high topped. They usually produce copious amounts of hail, torrential rainfall, strong winds, and substantial downbursts. Supercells are one of the few types of clouds that typically spawn tornadoes within the mesocyclone, although only 30% or less do so.3
Supercells can occur anywhere in the world under the right weather conditions. The first storm to be identified as the supercell type was the Wokingham storm over England, which was studied by Keith Browning and Frank Ludlam in 1962.4 Browning did the initial work that was followed up by Lemon and Doswell to develop the modern conceptual model of the supercell.5 To the extent that records are available, supercells are most frequent in the Great Plains of the central United States and southern Canada extending into the southeastern U.S. and northern Mexico; east-central Argentina and adjacent regions of Uruguay; Bangladesh and parts of eastern India; South Africa; and eastern Australia.6 Supercells occur occasionally in many other mid-latitude regions, including eastern China and throughout Europe. The areas with highest frequencies of supercells are similar to those with the most occurrences of tornadoes; see tornado climatology and Tornado Alley.
Anatomy of a supercell
The current conceptual model of a supercell was described in Severe Thunderstorm Evolution and Mesocyclone Structure as Related to Tornadogenesis by Leslie R. Lemon and Charles A. Doswell III. (See Lemon technique).
Supercells derive their rotation through tilting of horizontal vorticity (an invisible horizontal vortex) caused by wind shear. Strong updrafts lift the air turning about a horizontal axis and cause this air to turn about a vertical axis. This forms the deep rotating updraft, the mesocyclone.
A cap or capping inversion is usually required to form an updraft of sufficient strength. The cap puts an inverted (warm-above-cold) layer above a normal (cold-above-warm) boundary layer, and by preventing warm surface air from rising, allows one or both of the following:
- Air below the cap warms and/or becomes more moist
- Air above the cap cools
This creates a warmer, moister layer below a cooler layer, which is increasingly unstable (because warm air is less dense and tends to rise). When the cap weakens or moves, explosive development follows.
In North America, supercells usually show up on Doppler radar as starting at a point or hook shape on the southwestern side, fanning out to the northeast. The heaviest precipitation is usually on the southwest side, ending abruptly short of the rain-free updraft base or main updraft (not visible to radar). The rear flank downdraft, or RFD, carries precipitation counterclockwise around the north and northwest side of the updraft base, producing a "hook echo" that indicates the presence of a mesocyclone.
Features of a supercell
Overshooting top
This "dome" feature appears above the strongest updraft location on the anvil of the storm. It is a result of a very powerful updraft; enough to break through the upper levels of the troposphere. An observer who is at ground level too close to the storm is unable to see the overshooting top due to the fact that the anvil blocks the sight of this feature.
An anvil forms when the storm's updraft collides with the upper levels of the lowest layer of the atmosphere, or the troposphere, and has nowhere else to go due to the laws of fluid dynamics- specifically pressure, humidity, and density. The anvil is very cold and virtually precipitation free even though virga can be seen falling from the forward sheared anvil. Since there is so little moisture in the anvil, winds can move freely. The clouds take on their anvil shape when the rising air reaches 50,000–70,000 feet (15,200–21,300 m) or more. The anvil's distinguishing feature is that it juts out in front of the storm like a shelf. In some cases, it can even shear backwards, called a backsheared anvil, another sign of a very strong updraft.
Precipitation-free base
This area, typically on the southern side of the storm in North America, is relatively precipitation free. This is located beneath the main updraft, and is the main area of inflow. While no precipitation may be visible to an observer, large hail may be falling from this area. A region of this area is called the Vault. It is more accurately called the main updraft area.
Wall cloud
The wall cloud forms near the downdraft/updraft interface. This "interface" is the area between the precipitation area and the precipitation-free base. Wall clouds form when rain-cooled air from the downdraft is pulled into the updraft. This wet, cold air quickly saturates as it is lifted by the updraft, forming a cloud that seems to "descend" from the precipitation-free base. Wall clouds are common and are not exclusive to supercells: Only a small percentage actually produce a tornado but if a storm does produce a tornado it is usually wall clouds that persist for more than ten minutes, wall clouds that seem to move violently up or down, and violent movements of cloud fragments (scud or fractus) near the wall cloud are indications that a tornado could form.
Mammatus clouds
Mammatus (Mamma, Mammatocumulus) are bulbous or pillow-like cloud formations extending from beneath the anvil of a thunderstorm. These clouds form as cold air in the anvil region of a storm sinks into warmer air beneath it. Mammatus are most apparent when they are lit from one side or below and are therefore at their most impressive near sunset or shortly after sunrise when the sun is low in the sky. Mammatus are not exclusive to supercells and can be associated with developed thunderstorms and cumulonimbus.
Forward Flank Downdraft (FFD)
This is generally the area of heaviest and most widespread precipitation. Between the precipitation-free base and the FFD, a "vaulted" or "cathedral" feature can be observed. In high precipitation supercells an area of heavy precipitation may occur beneath the main updraft area where the vault would alternately be observed with classic supercells.
Rear Flank Downdraft (RFD)
The RFD of a supercell is a very complex and not yet fully understood feature. RFD mainly occur within classic and HP supercells although RFDs have been observed within LP supercells. The RFD of a supercell is believed to play a large part in tornadogenesis by further tightening rotation within the surface mesocyclone. RFDs are caused by mid level steering winds of a supercell colliding with the updraft tower and moving around it in all directions; specifically the flow that is redirected downward is referred to as the RFD. This downward surge of relatively cool mid level air, due to interactions between dew points, humidity, and condensation of the converging of air masses, can reach very high speeds and is known to cause widespread wind damage. The radar signature of an RFD is a hook like structure where sinking air has brought with it precipitation.
A vault is not observed with all supercells. The vault can only be identified visibly due to it visibly appearing to be free of precipitation but usually containing large hail. On Doppler radar, the region of very high precipitation echos with a very sharp gradient perpendicular to the RFD.
Flanking line
A line of smaller cumulonimbi or cumulus that form in the warm rising air pulled in by the main updraft. Due to convergence and lifting along this line, landspouts sometimes occur on the outflow boundary of this region.
Radar features of a supercell
- Hook echo or Pendant
The "hook echo" is the area of confluence between the main updraft and the rear flank downdraft (RFD). This indicates the position of the mesocyclone, and probably a tornado.
- Bounded weak echo region (or BWER)
This is a region of low radar reflectivity bounded above by an area of higher radar reflectivity with an untilted updraft. This is evidence of a strong updraft.
- Inflow notch
A "notch" of weak reflectivity on the inflow side of the cell. This is not a V-Notch.
- V Notch
A "V" shaped notch on the leading edge of the cell, opening away from the main downdraft. This is an indication of divergent flow around a powerful updraft.
- Hail spike
This three body scatter spike is a region of weak echoes found radially behind the main reflectivity core at higher elevations when large hail is present.7
Supercell variations
Supercell thunderstorms are sometimes classified by meteorologists and storm spotters into three categories. However, not all supercells fit neatly into any one category, being hybrid storms, and many supercells may fall into different categories during different periods of their lifetimes. The standard definition given above is referred to as the Classic supercell. All types of supercells typically produce severe weather.
Low Precipitation (LP)
LP supercells contain a small precipitation (rain/hail) core separate from the updraft. This type of supercell may be easily identifiable with "sculpted" cloud striations in the updraft base or even a "corkscrewed" or "barber pole" appearance on the updraft, and sometimes an almost "anorexic" look compared to classic supercells. This is because they often form along dry lines, thus leaving them with little available moisture despite high upper level wind shear. They usually dissipate rapidly rather than turning into classic or HP supercells, although it is still not unusual for them to do the latter, especially if they happen to collide with a much moister air mass along the way. Although these storms usually produce weak tornadoes, they have been known to produce strong ones. These storms usually produce hail less than 1.00 inch (25.4 mm) in diameter8 but can produce large hail even with little or no visible precipitation core, making them hazardous to storm chasers and people and animals caught outside. Due to the lack of a heavy precipitation core, LP supercells can sometimes show weak radar reflectivity without clear evidence of a hook echo, when in fact they are producing a tornado at the time. This is where observations by storm spotter and storm chasers may be of vital importance. Funnel clouds, or more rarely, weak tornadoes will sometimes form midway between the base and the top of the storm, descending from the main Cb (cumulonimbus) cloud. Lightning is rare compared to other supercell types, but it is not unknown and is more likely to occur as intracloud lightning rather than cloud-to-ground lightning. In North America, these storms almost exclusively form in the semi-arid Great Plains during the spring and summer months. Moving east and southeast, they often collide with moist air masses from the Gulf of Mexico, leading to the formation of HP supercells in areas just to the west of Interstate 35 before dissipating further east. LP supercells can occur as far north as Montana, North Dakota and even in the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan in Canada. They have also been observed by storm chasers in Australia.
LP supercells are quite sought after by storm chasers, because the limited amount of precipitation makes sighting tornadoes at a safe distance much less difficult than with a Classic or HP supercell. During spring and early summer, areas in which LP supercells are readily spotted include southwestern Oklahoma and northwestern Texas, among other parts of the western Great Plains.
High Precipitation (HP)
The HP supercell has a much heavier precipitation core that can wrap all the way around the mesocyclone. These are especially dangerous storms, since the mesocyclone is wrapped with rain and can hide a tornado (if present) from view. These storms also cause flooding due to heavy rain, damaging downbursts and weak tornadoes, although they are also known to produce strong to violent tornadoes. They have a lower potential for damaging hail than Classic and LP supercells, although damaging hail is possible. It has been observed by some spotters that they tend to produce more cloud-to-ground and intracloud lightning than the other types. Also, unlike the LP and Classic types, severe events usually occur at the front (southeast) of the storm. The HP supercell is the most common type of supercell in the United States east of Interstate 35 and in the southern parts of the provinces of Ontario and Quebec in Canada.
Mini-supercell or low-topped supercell
Whereas classic, HP, and LP refer to different precipitation regimes and mesoscale frontal structures, another variation was identified in the early 1990s by Jon Davies.9 These smaller storms were initially called mini-supercells10 but are now commonly referred to as low-topped supercells. These are also subdivided into Classic, HP and LP types.
Supercells can produce large hail, damaging winds, deadly tornadoes, flooding, dangerous cloud-to-ground lightning, and heavy rain.
Severe events associated with a supercell almost always occur in the area of the updraft/downdraft interface. In the Northern Hemisphere, this is most often the rear flank (southwest side) of the precipitation area in LP and classic supercells, but sometimes the leading edge (southeast side) of HP supercells.
While tornadoes are perhaps the most dramatic of these severe events, all are dangerous. High winds caused by powerful outflow can reach over 148 km/h (92 mph) 1112 and downbursts can cause tornado-like damage. Flooding is the leading cause of death associated with severe weather.13
Note that none of these severe events are exclusive to supercells, although these events are highly predictable once a supercell has formed.

The supercell is a global phenomenon, as evidenced by these examples.
Some reports suggest that the deluge on 26 July 2005 in Mumbai, India was caused by a supercell when there was a cloud formation 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) high over the city. On this day 944 mm (37.2 in) of rain fell over the city, of which 700 mm (28 in) fell in just four hours. The rainfall coincided with a high tide, which exacerbated conditions.14
On April 14, 1999, a severe storm later classified as a supercell hit the east coast of New South Wales. It is estimated that the storm dropped 500,000 tonnes (490,000 long tons; 550,000 short tons) worth of hailstones during its course. At the time it was the most costly disaster in Australia's insurance history, causing an approximated A$2.3 billion worth of damage, of which A$1.7 billion was covered by insurance.
On February 27, 2007 a supercell hit Canberra, dumping nearly one metre (39 inches) of ice in Civic. The ice was so heavy that a newly built shopping center's roof collapsed, birds were killed in the hail produced from the supercell, and people were stranded. The following day many homes in Canberra were subjected to flash flooding, caused either by storm water infrastructure's inability to cope or through mud slides from cleared land.15
In 2010, on 6 March, supercell storms hit Melbourne. The storms caused flash flooding in the center of the city and tennis ball-sized (10 cm or 4 in) hailstones hit cars and buildings, causing more than $220 million worth of damage, and sparking 40,000-plus insurance claims. In just 18 minutes, 19 mm (0.75 in) of rain fell, causing havoc as streets were flooded and trains, planes and cars were brought to a standstill.16
That same month, on March 22, 2010 a supercell hit Perth. This storm was one of the worst in the city's history, causing hail stones of 6 centimetres (2.4 in) in size and torrential rain. The city had its average March rainfall in just seven minutes during the storm. Hail stones caused severe property damage, from dented cars to smashed windows.17 The storm itself caused more than 100 million dollars in damage.18
In 2009, on the night of Monday May 25, a supercell formed over Belgium. It was described by Belgian meteorologist Frank Deboosere as "one of the worst storms in recent years" and caused much damage in Belgium - mainly in the provinces of East Flanders (around Ghent), Flemish Brabant (around Brussels) and Antwerp. The storm occurred between about 1:00am and 4:00am local time. An incredible 30,000 lightning flashes were recorded in 2 hours - including 10,000 cloud-to-ground strikes. Hailstones up to 6 centimetres (2.4 in) across were observed in some places and wind gusts over 90 km/h (56 mph); in Melle near Ghent a gust of 101 km/h (63 mph) was reported. Trees were uprooted and blown onto several motorways. In Lillo (east of Antwerp) a loaded goods train was blown from the rail tracks.1920
On August 18, 2011, the rock festival Pukkelpop in Kiewit, Hasselt (Belgium) may have been seized by a supercell with mesocyclone around 18:15. Tornado-like winds were reported, trees of over 30 centimetres (12 in) diameter were felled and tents came down. Severe hail scourged the campus. Five people reportedly died and over 140 people were injured. One more died a week later. The event was suspended. Buses and trains were mobilised to bring people home.
On June 28, 2012, three supercells affected the Midlands of England. One of them produced hailstones reported to be larger than golfballs, with conglomerate stones up to 10cms across. Burbage in Leicestershire saw some of the most severe hail. Another supercell produced a tornado near Sleaford, in Lincolnshire. Severe thunderstorms also affected the North East region of England. One such storm struck the Tyneside area without warning at the height of the evening rush hour causing widespread damage and travel chaos, with people abandoning cars and being trapped due to lack of public transport. Flooded shopping malls were evacuated, Newcastle Central station was shut, as was the Tyne and Wear Metro, and main road routes were flooded leading to massive tailbacks. 999 land line services were knocked out in some areas and the damage ran to huge amounts only visible the next day after water cleared. Many parts of County Durham and Northumberland were also affected, with thousands of homes across the North East left without power due to lightning strikes. Lightning was seen to hit the Tyne Bridge (Newcastle).
In Europe, the mini-supercell, or low-topped supercell, is very common, especially when showers and thunderstorms develop in cooler polar air masses with a strong jet stream above, especially in the left exit-region of a jetstreak.
North America
The Tornado Alley is a region of the central United States where severe weather is common, particularly tornadoes. Supercell thunderstorms can sweep through any time between March and November, but are concentrated in the spring. Tornado watches and warnings are frequently necessary in the spring and summer. Most places from the Great Plains to the Eastern Seaboard and north as far as the Canadian prairies, Great Lakes region, and the St. Lawrence River will experience one or more supercells each year.
Gainesville, Georgia was the site of the fifth deadliest tornado in U.S. history in 1936, where Gainesville was devastated and 203 people were killed.21
The 1980 Grand Island tornado outbreak affected the city of Grand Island, Nebraska on June 3, 1980. Seven tornadoes touched down in or near the city that night, killing 5 and injuring 200.
The Elie, Manitoba tornado was an F5 that struck the town of Elie, Manitoba on June 22, 2007. While several houses were leveled, no one was injured or killed by the tornado.222324
A massive tornado outbreak of May 3, 1999 spawned an F5 Tornado in the area of Oklahoma City, OK that had the highest recorded winds on Earth. This outbreak spawned over 66 tornadoes in Oklahoma alone. On this day throughout the area of Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas, over 141 tornadoes were produced. This outbreak resulted in 50 fatalities and 895 injuries.
A massive storm on June 16, 2012 struck much of Maine, causing widespread wind and flood damage.citation needed Many cities reported heavy flooding, with precipitation in excess of 15 inches. Wind speeds were reported in excess of 75 mph. Storm characteristics resembled that of a High Precipitation Supercell. No known tornadoes were reported.
A series of tornadoes which occurred on May 2013 caused severe devastation to Oklahoma City in general. The first tornado outbreaks occurred on May 18 to May 21 when a series of tornadoes hit. One of the storms formed an EF5 tornado also known as the Moore tornado which traveled across Oklahoma City causing a severe amount of disruption, the tornado was first spotted in Newcastle, it touched the ground for 39 minutes crossing through a heavily populated section of Moore, winds peaked 210 mph (340 km/h), 23 fatalities were caused and 377 injuries by the tornado. 61 other tornadoes were confirmed during the storm period and 95 were reported. Later on in the month on the night of 31 May 2013, another 9 deaths were confirmed from a series of tornadoes and funnel clouds which hit nearby areas.
South Africa
South Africa witnesses several supercell thunderstorms each year with the inclusion of isolated tornadoes. On most occasions these tornadoes occur in open farmlands and rarely cause damage to property, as such many of the tornadoes which do occur in South Africa are not reported. The majority of supercells develop in the central, northern, and north eastern parts of the country. The Free State, Gauteng, and Kwazulu Natal are typically the provinces where these storms are most commonly experienced, though supercell activity is most certainly not limited to these provinces. On occasion, hail reaches sizes in excess of golf balls, and tornadoes, though rare, also occur.
On the 6 May 2009 a well defined hook echo was noticed on local South African radars, along with satellite imagery this supported the presence of a strong supercell storm. Reports from the area indicated heavy rains, winds and large hail.25
On Sunday October 2, 2011 2 devastating tornadoes tore through two separate parts of South Africa on the same day, hours apart from each other. The first, classified as an EF 2 hit Meqheleng, the informal settlement outside Ficksburg, Free State which devastated shacks and homes, uprooted trees, and killed one small child. The second, which hit the informal settlement of Duduza, Nigel in the Gauteng province, also classified as EF2 hit hours apart from the one that struck Ficksburg. This tornado completely devastated parts of the informal settlement and killed two children, destroying shacks and RDP homes.2627

The many myths of Notre Dame
Irish lies
Joe Raymond/AP ImagesShow Thumbnails
The tale of All-American Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o was too good to be true. A story that Te'o's girlfriend had died of leukemia — a loss he said inspired him to lead the Irish to the BCS championship game — was revealed to be a hoax, with the university calling it a sick joke played on Te'o while we're left to wonder if he duped us all. But really, when it comes to Notre Dame and it's folklore, there's always a big difference between the Manti and the myth.

Return to Oral Infection Management Overview
More on Oral Infection Management
Oral Infection Management
Many different kinds of infections can occur around your teeth and gums. Periodontitis, which can be caused by improper oral hygiene as well as some systemic conditions, is an infection of the gums that can spread to surrounding tissue, such as the ligaments supporting the bone, and can cause the destruction of underlying bone.
Other kinds of odontogenic infections (meaning those arising from the teeth) can be caused by wisdom tooth impaction or by infections at a tooth's pulp. Infected areas are inflamed, red and often painful, and may be accompanied by fever. These kinds of infections can cause abscesses (pus-filled swellings) and other kinds of inflammation. Serious oral infections can also cause the throat or tongue to swell, which can result in difficulty in breathing and in opening and closing the mouth.
Infections start out localized to a particular place in the mouth, but can then spread to other areas of the gums, as well as to underlying bones or other tissues if left untreated. A dentist can usually treat localized infections, such as most abscesses, but an infection that has spread or that is very inflamed usually requires the care of an oral surgeon.
Advanced periodontitis may require surgical care. "Flap surgery," which involves surgically lifting the gums, provides a way of cleaning deep underlying plaque deposits. In severe cases, underlying bone that has been partially destroyed must be surgically reshaped. Teeth may need to be extracted if their supportive tissue has been heavily damaged.
Treatment of serious odontogenic infections involves draining any pus that is present, and getting rid of the bacteria. An oral surgeon can drain pus or discharge by making an incision into the infected area and inserting a small tube. The drainage area must be cleaned daily, and must be removed by your oral surgeon. Antibiotics will be prescribed to kill the bacteria. Any infected teeth will have to be extracted. In most cases, infection management can be done on an outpatient basis; if the inflammation is obstructing breathing, in-hospital treatment may be necessary.

Public Advocate Bill de Blasio came under intense fire from his opponents during the final televised debate between the Democratic candidates for mayor Tuesday night. NY1's Grace Rauh filed the following report.
There is no doubt that Bill de Blasio is the candidate to beat in the Democratic primary. He leads in the polls, and his rivals are desperate to stop his momentum.
The public advocate came under intense fire during the final Democratic mayoral debate Tuesday night.
"We need a leader. We don't need a cheerleader," said Democratic mayoral candidate William Thompson. "Tell the people the truth about your tax proposal. Tell them about the term limit issue. Tell them about member items. Tell them the truth.
De Blasio has been on the hot seat for days. It got even hotter Tuesday after a new poll showed that 43 percent of likely Democratic voters are backing him.
Thompson is in second place, and City Council Speaker Christine Quinn is in third. She attacked de Blasio Tuesday for his recent calls to end earmarks, known as member items, in the City Council.
Quinn: If this was such an important issue to the public advocate, why, in all the time he was in the council, did he never propose one bill that would have reformed member items?de Blasio: Because people didn't go to jail until the last few years.
De Blasio also had to defend the viability of his plan to raise taxes on wealthy New Yorkers to pay for universal pre-kindergarten. The tax hike would require approval from Albany, and insiders have said there is no way Governor Andrew Cuomo would agree to it in an election year.
"Bill, bold proposal isn't about putting something forward that is never going to happen," Thompson said.
"The Daily News, the New York Times, they've all said, based on what they've heard in Albany, that his plan is dead on arrival, going to die on the rocks of Albany," Quinn said.
"The notion that we can't go to Albany and get what we deserve, that we can't convince the legislature that we need the right to tax people who make a half million or more, that's old thinking," de Blasio said. "That's not the thinking that is going to move us forward."
Regardless of whether he can get it done, many Democratic voters seem to like the idea.

Hey, did you hear? Ned Yost was fired. At 6:30 Central time (in about 5 minutes), they'll be having a press conference to fill in the blanks. The thread is open! [Note by battlekow,...
Caught some Brewers BP before Tuesday night's game. I swear it looked like Sheets was hitting up Simmons on hitting advice the entire 45 minutes they were out there.

TERRE HAUTE — It never ceases to amaze me how fast time slides past us… Or should I say, blows by. I've lived in my house 28 years; I've taught school for over 30, and I've been married a little longer than that. I honestly think I have t-shirts that are older than the high school students I have in class, and my two kids still don't believe I can remember a time when television went off the air around midnight after a rousing rendition of the national anthem.
Proving my point is the fact that this is already the 10th year of the Pizza Hut Wabash Valley Classic. It sure doesn't seem like it was that long ago when I first got myself saddle-sore watching those first Classic games from the bleachers at Terre Haute South. If I recall, we had a whole lot of snow that inaugural year too.
I think a 10-year anniversary is special. According to tradition, being in a relationship for a decade is proof of durability and commitment. It may seem mildly inconsistent, but 10th anniversaries are normally commemorated with either a gift of diamonds, or one of tin or aluminum. I may get all weepy about how much I love the Classic, but diamonds are beyond my budget, so we'll have to settle for simply tipping a can of soda sometime Saturday morning at Terre Haute — just before Bloomfield and Terre Haute South tip-off in the day's first game — in honor of this great tournament. Of course, I hope to have a slice of pizza to go with it.
Over the years, I've seen the WVPHC grow, not only in the size of the field and in attendance numbers, but also in stature as one of the very best high school basketball tournaments in the country. Last year provided perhaps the best year of all since a little guy — Marshall's Lions — broke through to win it in reminiscence of all of those small-school champions the old Wabash Valley Tourney had in its 57 years of existence.
I've had a load of favorite moments in the PHWVC — too many to mention here. But if I had to name just one, it would come from championship night in the 2001 tournament. The gym at North was, of course, packed that evening in anticipation of a David and Goliath match-up between Northview and tiny Turkey Run. The tournament that year came at a time when stress in this country was running like a high fever; terrorists had attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon just a few months before.
Everyone in the gym stood, addressed the flag, and, as many sang "The Star-Spangled Banner," I remember thinking that it was as respectful a crowd that I had ever seen. Before the spell was broken by the ensuing roar, I saw more than a few tears being wiped away. It wasn't an exciting dunk, or a go-ahead basket in a nail-biter, but it was special…
Now, here's the yearly PHWVC trivia quiz, and if you get them all correct, why I'll tip my can to you too. In the meantime, I need to figure out how to celebrate next year. Eleventh-year anniversaries are usually commemorated with a gift of steel… See you at the Classic.

Tipping my can in honor of the Classic's 10th
- Sidelines
Old friend missing as Pizza Hut Wabash Valley Classic begins
It occurred to me late last month, as I opened my morning newspaper to read up on the draw for this year's Pizza Hut Wabash Valley Classic, that when I walk through Terre Haute South's doors on Wednesday it will be the first time that I won't find my old buddy Dean Kendall sitting at one end of the gym, a smile on his face a good while before the first whistle is blown or the first shot is taken.
SIDELINES: Good for even a traditional Classic buff
Lights down, tree out, another year gone at the Classic.
Sidelines: Pizza Hut Classic is basketball on caffeine
I'm no coffee connoisseur. If it's hot and black and in a Styrofoam cup, I'll drink it.
Knowing I consume a good bit of brew every day, my family helps fuel the addiction by buying Christmas gift cards for me at a local coffee shop, but, since I make it into town only occasionally, the cards stay stashed in my wallet until the Pizza Hut Wabash Valley Classic rolls around. - Sidelines: Feeling cold? Here's a story that just might warm your feet Despite a glowing space heater that hums near my chilly feet, I still hug my arms and rub my legs as I sit to write this story. The sub-zero temperatures this weekend have brutally reminded us all of our human frailty, of our dependence on stoves and furnaces, electricity and natural gas, on blankets and fleece and wool and warm water.
- Tipping my can in honor of the Classic's 10th It never ceases to amaze me how fast time slides past us… Or should I say, blows by. I've lived in my house 28 years; I've taught school for over 30, and I've been married a little longer than that.
- Hayden's loyalty to Colts pays off Hours before the former University of Illinois cornerback was due to be designated as the Indianapolis Colts' franchise player, Kelvin Hayden — who had made it known that he wasn't interested in playing anywhere else — signed a five-year, $43 million deal with the team.
- Thumbing through a real history book My wife and I invest a bit of our time on the occasional Saturday wandering through antique stores and junk shops.
- Sidelines: When it comes to the Classic, it's better late than never… I'm normally pretty punctual. Despite having to slip into the back pew at church on the occasionally tardy Sunday morning, I'm not in the habit of paying late fees on bills, standing at the back of any buffet lines, or being the last guy in the neighborhood to mow grass. As a matter of fact, I'm often the first employee to pull into the parking lot every morning.
- Colts notebook: Team won't be very active in free-agent market Now that Indianapolis has re-signed unrestricted free agents Bob Sanders (strong safety), Dallas Clark (tight end) and Ryan Lilja (offensive guard), team officials are planning to sit back and see what's going to happen with the rest of the team's free agents.
- SIDELINES: Like fine wine, Classic gets better with age I know virtually nothing about wine, but I do know that the best of it gets better with age. That's apparently true of the Pizza Hut Wabash Valley Classic.
- Sidelines: A man has to do what a man has to do I have a job to do just after Christmas, and believe me, it's a tough one; it takes four days, involves putting in long hours, requires both physical and mental sacrifice, and perhaps even holds the chance for long-term injury. But a guy has to do what he has to do to bring home a paycheck.
- Metro roundup: ISU announces Hall of Fame class
- Sidelines: Illinois has its share of unique nicknames too Over the years, I've written at least four columns about unique school nicknames, but Casey resident Jim Blome reminded me in a letter about a year ago that I've never done a story about interesting names from Illinois schools. I think it's time I remedied that error.
- Sidelines: Advocates had their chance for higher basket Years ago, if atmospheric conditions were just right, I could occasionally dunk a basketball, particularly at one local gym where pick-up game artists like me knew that one rim was at least three inches lower than regulation height.
- Warm up for Classic with Clyde Quiz An obligation at work kept me from being at the Pizza Hut Wabash Valley Classic luncheon and tournament drawing at Terre Haute South a few weeks ago, but I don't intend to let much get in my way when it comes to showing up for the lion's share of the 28 games in the Classic, which, by the way, gets started today.
- Mike Lunsford: It's not how much we've gained, but how much we've lost I haven't seen much basketball this fall; the weather outside has been too nice lately to turn my attention to things indoors just yet. So this is the first Sidelines of the year; I was already writing about hoops in October last season. I hope the old adage of it being better late than never still rings true.
- Sidelines: Mail waste of time for some, but not for me No matter how many bills or how much junk mail I get, I'm one of those folks who anticipates going to the mailbox like Carter opening Tut's tomb. I've always enjoyed getting mail; there's a feeling of connectedness one gets when he sees his name on a letter from somewhere in the outside world. It makes little difference that what I most often get isn't worth the postage it took to send it, even at the bulk rate.
- Sidelines: It doesn't take much for me to name names It's no secret that I enjoy talking about old high school nicknames; I've done several columns on the subject before. I usually wait a little while before I write about a topic for a second (or third) time, but when Fred Myers of Riley dropped a letter to me a few weeks ago pointing out a potential mistake I made about a nickname, I just couldn't resist going into it again. After all, it has been a couple of years.

Hundreds Attend MLK Memorial Breakfast In Butler Co.
More than 500 people attended the program to enjoy music, food and much more at the Martin Luther King Junior Breakfast in Butler County. Greenville High School's JROTC did the presentation of the Colors and one student even read King's famous "I Have A Dream" speech. Among many of the guests, were people who participated in the Civil Rights Movement, including Evergreen resident, Robert Floyd. He took part in the Selma to Montgomery March in 1965 with Dr King and says he's overwhelmed with today's turn-out "I was a teacher at Thurgood Marshall High School. And the principal and I decided to go to Selma to be in the marches with the parade. We went there at the beginning of the march. Then we met them at St. Jude's school," Said Floyd. The Butler County Civic League hosted the program. It's an annual event that's been held for more than 20 years in Greenville. |

Added: Wednesday October 26, 2011 Where's the best place to find the freaky deaky chics* THE HOOD ofcorse!! We were driving around trying to get some lunch. We passed the BK we wanted to go to so we made a u turn. As we made that fateful turn we spotted a hottie posted up outside of a tattoo shop on a phone call. We're rude pieces of shit so interrupting her call was second nature to us. This girl is mad cute! She has long black hair, a cute face and she's all tatted up! We asked her how much it would cost to get a tat and the price was 60 bucks so we offered her 100 bucks to interview her and to see her body art. She was hesitant at first, but she hoped on the bus pretty quickly. You can tell the chick is quite fearless to get on board with abunch of pervs like us. After a lil Q and A we get right in to it. We offer her some more cash to get completely naked. So we could see all her tats ofcorse!! Once she was naked my friend straigh pulled out his cock and let this chic see it. Good God!! I never expected her to start stroking it right there, but she did!! Bang Bus does it again!!

How to hide redness on the face
"How do I cover up this redness on my face"?
One of our most frequently asked questions we receive at The Makeup Studio is How do I hide redness on the face. If you have blemishes, broken capillaries or age spots that you wish to cover on your face, The Makeup Studio staff can help.
"It's all about color theory"-Says Julie Farley.
The first step to hide redness on the face, is start with the color wheel to determine your shade of concealer. For example with redness on your face, you want to use a yellow/green concealer. Make sure your makeup concealer isn't too light or dark. If you use too light of a concealer it will appear lighter on the face and will accentuate the red spots on your face. Remember you want to see the effects of the makeup but not see the makeup.
Here is a step by step tutorial to achieve even toned skin:
Step One:
It's a good idea to prep the skin with moisturizer, then a face primer like the Senna Silky Primer or the Alison Raffaele "Acne" response primer. The primer will ensure a silky smooth surface to help your foundation and concealer glide on smoothly and help fill in fine lines.
Step Two:
Apply liquid foundation or tinted moisturizer. The Makeup Studio staff loves tinted moisturizers at The Makeup Studio because their light formula will give you adequate coverage and most of them come with a sunscreen in the formula.
Step Three:
Apply concealer with a concealer brush on all redness and blemishes. Use the warmth of your finger to stipple it in. Here are a few of our favorites:
- Senna Totally Transforming Concealer-A full coverage concealer
- Alison Raffaele True Concealer-Lightweight texture
Step Four:
Apply translucent powder to set the makeup. This final step is often overlooked, but is very important. Translucent powder will help hold your foundation and concealer in place throughout the day. We love the Alison Raffaele Loose Powder for this step.
So show your face with pride and don't hide!

We like Quick and Easy! And that is just what the Girlactik eye glazes are all about. The velvety texture helps them glide on smoothly with no tugging. They dry into a high pearl finish with a staying power that will last all day with no creasing. And if that isn't enough, how about the fact that they are waterproof, smudge proof and won't fade!
The Make-up Studio loves Girlactik eye glazes because:
- They are easy to apply.
- They will not crease or smudge.
- They wont come off until you take them off.
- They are lightweight and waterproof.
Makeup Artist Tip: Apply the eye glaze on your lid and blend in with your finger or small concealer brush. You have about a minute to blend it in before it dries. You can apply it under your lower lash line for a more dramatic, smokey effect.

The Ultimate Makeup Sponge
Never thought we would be blogging about an egg shaped sponge, but it is definitely blog worthy! If you don't have this pink sponge as a tool in your kit, you are truly missing out. Now you might say a sponge is a sponge, but not so!
This elliptical shape sponge called the Beauty Blender was designed to match the contours of the face so applying foundation and cream blush has never been easier. Not only is it the perfect shape for blending, but the texture of this sponge is amazing and you'll never go back to the cheap ones again. These pink sponges can be washed over and over and will last for months!!! The company will even recycle your old Beauty Blender.
Why we love them here at The Make-up Studio:
- They come in a 2 pack so you can share with a friend
- They're washable
- It's a multi tasking tool
- Environmentally Friendly
- Your makeup will never look better
- Wet sponge, then squeeze the excess water out.
- Either apply foundation with fingers, then blend in with sponge, or stipple makeup directly with sponge.
- Apply under eye concealer with fingers then use the sponge tip to blend.
- Turn sponge over and use large end for applying cream blush.
- Clean your sponge after every use.

Why we love Tinted Moisturizers
One of the best ways to update your makeup for spring is to incorporate a tinted moisturizer. These sheer foundations are easy to work with and they look and feel better on the skin than a traditional liquid foundation.
Some women feel that they need to apply a heavier foundation because they have pigmentation or redness to cover and don't know how to achieve flawless skin any other way. Then there are the women who just don't wear any foundation, but need to and are thrilled to discover that just a little coverage is a good thing!
We feel at The Make-up Studio that your skin should look flawless with the least amount of makeup. To achieve this unmade up look, and still have great looking skin, apply a tinted moisturizer followed by a face concealer. The point is to just spot touch where you need the extra coverage with the concealer and the finished look will feel lighter and fresher! We recommend setting with a colorless powder such as the Allison Raffaele transparent setting powder.
There are so many tinted moisturizers available on the market but they all have a different feel, coverage and SPF factor so it can be challenging finding the right one. Remember, if possible always ask for a sample so you can try it at home to make sure you like the color and feel, as not all tinted moisturizers are created equal!
Tinted moisturizers are easy to apply with either fingers, sponge, or foundation brush.
Here are some great options that we carry at The Make-up Studio:
- Girlactik Skin Tint Moisturizer
- The Balm Shelter Tinted Moisturizer SPF 18
- Senna Barely Base SPF 20
- Stila Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20
Stop by The Make-up Studio for your complimentary appointment to be color matched and receive your free samples. Remember, you should be your own best makeup artist and we can teach you how to accomplish that with one of the lessons we offer here at The Make-up Studio.

Keep your makeup looking fresh
Do you ever feel the need to touch up your makeup not long after applying it? If so, are you using a finishing powder to set your foundation?
Setting your foundation and concealer with a colorless finishing powder is an essential part of your makeup application. This will not only give you a soft matte finish but will help keep your makeup on longer throughout the day. One of The Make-up Studio's favorites is the Alison Raffaele Transparent Finish Powder.
Why we love it:
- Cornstarch based making it ultra lightweight
- All Natural-100% Free of Paraben, Talc, Oil, Gluten & Fragrance
- Provides a natural matte finish while banishing shine
- Colorless making it suitable for all skin types
For best results, use an all over fluff brush.
Remember, you want to see the EFFECTS of the makeup, not see the makeup. -Julie Farley

Under eye concealing made easy
What ages you most? Surprisingly, it might not be wrinkles or gray hair, but dark circles under your eyes. ~mayo clinic staff
Julie Farley at The Make-up Studio has the solution for covering
those unwanted dark circles.
The secret lies in color theory and Julie always references the color wheel to make it simple. When concealing blue/purple under eye circles you'll want to use a concealer that is a peach/salmon color which is usually opposite on the color wheel.
In three easy steps you can minimize your dark circles.
- Always use a hydrating eye cream before applying under eye concealer. A personal favorite of Julie Farley's is "Kiehl's creamy avocado eye" treatment.
- Apply concealer with a concealer brush and stipple in with finger. A customer favorite is "Girlactic C2 concealer".
- It's very important to set the concealer with a colorless powder. A best seller at The Make-up Studio is "Alison Raffaele's transparent finish powder".
Remember, you want to see the EFFECTS of the makeup, not SEE the makeup when applied correctly!

Service History Check
Is there a way to check what kind of dealership service a vehicle has had? Can I take my VIN into any Ferd dealer and have them bring it up?
Reason I ask, I was told my Exploder had a new, dealer replaced, engine. I never believe that stuff, but I came across a stock tag on the engine that has a later date than the vehicle...and there's a nut missing from the motor mount so it very well may have been a dealership job () |
February 27th, 2011, 04:19 PM | #2 |
dealers can run an OASIS report on a vehicle that shows all the repaired history. Some dealers do it without batting an eye, some won't do it at all.

I tried to get the service history for my truck when I bought it from Wenzel GMC in Grand Rapids and they wouldn't because they said it was for the privacy of the previous owner.
I didn't ask what they paid or for any of their info, just what has been done. They were the servicing dealer since the truck was new. |

RIM supports innovation at kwartzlab!
By DW
MASSIVE thanks to Research In Motion today for the infusion of $4500 to our maker space.
RIM supports employee volunteer efforts in the community by giving $500/employee to qualifying organizations through their Proud2Be program. With great help from our fearless treasurer and hardest-working-kwartzlabber, Ben, I submitted the paperwork and worked with relevant RIM folks to hook us in to this great opportunity. Not surprising, a full one quarter of kwartzlabbers work at RIM: seems makerly creativity and the do-ocracy span both professional and private life! So 9 (x $500) of us RIM-kwartzlabbers directed our Proud2Be dollars to the lab. Take a bow: Matt, Natalie, Andrew, James, Rob, Katchan, Ron, and Pawel
Special shout-outs to
Mandy Dennison, team lead of the RIM Community Investments group, for hooking me up to this program and listening to my lightning kwartzlab overview
Laura Richards, RIM community investments specialist, for streamlining and guiding our 9 applications through the process
Now anybody who knows us, knows that we know how to stretch a buck. I suspect that some portion of our new cash is going to make it possible to bring power, light, and ventilation into our awesome 1400 sqft Tool Room, where a kiln, and giant bandsaw, and a host of other tools have been waiting patiently for infrastructure. This really accelerates us along our capability arc plan. Stay tuned for more great projects and events.
If you too can support kwartzlab with tools/materials/services please ping me.
So after 8 years with RIM and 1 year lighting kwartzlab up, I have to say it's super satisfying to finally connect these two creative dynamos I love working on.
Happy making,

Release Date - 27/09/2013*
FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) returns in FIFA 14 for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, recreating the challenges and rewards of managing your own team.
FIFA Ultimate Team is your chance to compete with millions of other fans worldwide as you build and manage your dream football team. You can buy, sell and trade with other players in the Transfer Market, and boost your squad with items such as longer contracts, new kits and fitness items to help your team become as strong as possible.
Once you've built your team, you can compete online against other players around the world, with each victory taking you one step closer to winning your division. And on top of playing FUT within FIFA 14, you can interact with your squad using the mobile or web app, allowing you to play FUT wherever you go and on any device.
Pick your dream squad and sign up for FIFA Ultimate Team today!
*FIFA 14 release date
Team of the Week
Each week, FIFA Ultimate Team will assemble the best players in both club and international competition from around the world and choose the top 18 players to form the ultimate squad.
With improved attributes and ratings, these are the players you want on your squad to improve your performance this week, but be quick - you only have seven days to find them in Gold Packs!
Alternatively, you can pit your team against the Team Of The Week and reap the rewards of beating the best.
In Game Currency
There are two types of currency you can use to build and boost your Ultimate Team: Coins and FIFA points. Coins can only be earned in-game by playing matches in the FUT mode or by trading players on the Transfer Market. FIFA points can only be purchased using Xbox Live and PlayStation Network points cards.
Both Coins and FIFA Points can be used to purchase FUT Gold Packs. Each Gold Pack includes a mix of 12 items, which could include anything from managers, players and training staff to stadiums, balls, kits and fitness items. Gold Packs are also guaranteed to include at least one rare item, such as enhanced player attributes, longer contracts and the world's best players.
Building & Managing Your Team
With over 8,000 players from around the world to choose from, this is more than just your average fantasy league. Choose your team by purchasing gold, silver or bronze FUT packs from the online store, or by trading player items in the Transfer Market. Then pick your preferred playing style and formation, choose your kits and more!
Trade and sign new players to enhance your style, and sell those who aren't doing well. Manage your players' fitness and morale, and ensure they're playing to the best of their ability. The more you play and the more you succeed, the closer you'll get to putting together the team you've always wanted.
Moving Into The Next Generation!
A new generation of consoles doesn't mean you have to start a new FIFA Ultimate Team. If you're moving up to Xbox One from Xbox 360, or PlayStation 4 from PlayStation 3, you will be able to move your FIFA Ultimate Team with you.
Your FIFA Points will transfer across to your new console and can then only be used on that version of FIFA 14, but Coins will still be able to be used across both versions of the game, so whichever console you're playing on, you'll be able to purchase the FUT Gold Packs you need.
You'll also be able to access your full FUT roster and in-game items from either console. And any changes made to your team will be reflected on the console you're on, so if you're still playing on both generations, you'll be able to access and play with the most recent version of your FIFA Ultimate Team on either console, maintaining your current division in Seasons mode.
Play Online, Play Offline, Play Anywhere!
FIFA Ultimate Team combines the fun of fantasy football with the award-winning gameplay that the FIFA series is renowned for. Whether it's winning matches or just individual achievements, you can push your team forward with every game you play, both online against another player from FIFA's massive global community, or offline in single-player mode. And you can keep managing off the pitch - and off the console - using the FUT web app available at easportsfoobtall.co.uk or the EA SPORTS Football Club app for your mobile.
FIFA Legends - Only On Xbox
Exclusively on Xbox One and Xbox 360, your FIFA Ultimate Team can get even more legendary with the new FUT Legends.
For the first time in the series, classic players from football's past enter the FIFA Ultimate Team mix, with 42 legends available to join your team. From all-time greats like Pele, Ruud Gullit and David Seaman to modern legends like Robbie Fowler and Dennis Bergkamp, this is a veritable who's who of international football over the last few decades. FUT Legends gives you the chance to build a team made up of the best players of the past and present, a true dream team that will push you further to FIFA Ultimate Team victory!

Our History�
Greenlawn Memorial Park was the vision of Ed Helm (1891-1952). Having already established Bakersfield Monument Company in 1927, he witnessed a rapidly growing Bakersfield and knew that the time would come when additional interment property would be needed.
To that end, Greenlawn Memorial Park was established in 1931, and in 1934, the planning process began for Greenlawn Mortuary. In 1941 Ed himself turned the first shovelful of earth for what would become the location of the chapel. The following is taken from the forward of Greenlawn�s historical documents:
The word �cemetery,� of Greek origin and meaning �resting or sleeping place,� is merely a place where the bodies of mankind are laid to await the resurrection; and with the thought of this, death in itself is far from repelling. As we sleep, why not rest in a modern burial estate where all the arts of the landscape engineer finds its best expression? Where nature smiles forth in all her resplendent beauty, where in the very warmth and setting of our surroundings we live again? Where studious advantage is to be taken of the natural beauty of each setting, of shrubs, of flowers and of lawns? Each spot, each place of rest verily jewel-like in its perfection! Such is the opportunity afforded by Greenlawn Memorial Park, a veritable paradise of somber rest and beauty, created in the modern way.
It was the hope of Ed Helm that, for generations to come, Greenlawn Memorial Park would be a place that residents of Kern County would be drawn to, not only because of its physical beauty, but because of the dedication of the people who would work there. His dream has stood the test of time through the hard work of his son, Marshall E. Helm, and the continued commitment of his grandchildren.

Yes, many phrasal verbs could be described as idioms in the sense that their meaning is not obvious from the two (or three) words composing them.
But another way of looking at it is to say that a phrasal verb is just another verb, and you need to learn it whole, not try to deduce the meaning from its parts. Under this view, phrasal verbs could not be regarded as idioms.
Defining idioms is quite difficult and there are no hard borders. Even single words are sometimes described as idioms: for example, some dictionaries regard "fishy" (in the sense of "suspicious") as an idiom.

May 20th Solar Eclipse - Where will you Be
I am going to Bryce Canyon Utah. I should be able to get a nice view from there. I have been there before and I think I know a great spot.
See link of Google Maps and Solar Eclipse Paths http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEgoogl...20Agoogle.html I am going to try and get an HDR of the eclipse with the canyon in the background. (I don't even know if that's possible) I have seen some incredible "Ring of Fire" pictures and I have an idea of what I want but don't know if it's possible. Does anyone have any pointers you would like to share?

Cream of the Crop
Re: May 20th Solar Eclipse - Where will you Be
Yes. Do not try to shoot the eclipse without a proper filter. Ordinary ND filters are not good for this. While you can use them to block the visible light most of them will still let a lot of IR through - enough to fry your retina.
The Sun (and Moon) are very small (in terms of angular dimensions). Hold a dime at arm's lenght - that's a bit bigger than the sun's disc. In a wide-angle lens (such as one would normally use for a landscape) the Sun/Moon will be a near-invisible dot. |

Conventional mortgages offered by commercial banks and others now have interest rates that are so low, there isn't much of an advantage to taking out a loan under the housing fund's traditional program that is financed with bonds.
On Thursday a housing fund 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage financed with bonds carried a 3.836 annual percentage rate. Thursday's Wall Street Journal published a survey that said the average 30-year fixed rate mortgage nationwide carried a 3.64 percent interest rate, not including closing costs.
The Movin' Up Program offers mortgages with percentage rates of 3.25 or 3.625 percent.
Income and house price limits for the Movin' Up Program vary by the county where the house is located. In Kanawha County, the income limit for a family of one or two persons is $65,880. The limit for a family of three or more is $76,860. The maximum house price eligible for financing is $250,200.
Asked for an example of what a mortgage might cost using the new program, Gannon said that on a home with a sales price of $100,000, a buyer with excellent credit would qualify for the program's lowest interest rate, 3.25 percent. If the buyer made a $3,000 down payment, he or she would pay $639.70 a month. That figure includes the mortgage payment, a down payment closing cost assistance loan, hazard insurance, taxes and mortgage insurance.
Boggess said that by creating a self-sustaining program, the housing development fund can better manage its finances and still offer homebuyers an affordable home loan.
"The new program has some exciting changes," she said. "By removing the first-time homebuyer requirements mandated by the bond program, we can better serve moderate income buyers."
David Rathbun, the housing fund's senior director of single-family loan origination, said in a prepared statement that the housing fund will continue working with its statewide network of lending partners. Loans made under the new program will be serviced at the housing fund's Kanawha City office.
The housing fund also uses self-sustaining programs to finance its down payment and closing cost assistance loans. Gannon said the fund also has previously made some loans to customers who were not first-time homebuyers.
