KUSA - Rick George has high expectations - really high.
The University of Colorado new athletic director outlined his ambitious goals for the athletic program over the next three years, both fiscally and on the field, Wednesday. George expects that Mike MacIntyre and the Buffs football team should play in a bowl game in 2014 and 2015, and by 2016 they should compete in the Pac-12 Championship game.
"It's aspiring but is it attainable? Absolutely," George said, answering his own question. "If we set goals and said we were just going to be mediocre then that's not where we want to be. We want to be the best at everything that we do. Under my leadership we are going to set aspiring goals that push and motivate people to achieve."
Colorado went a disappointing 8-30 the past three seasons - they last appeared in the Big-12 Conference Championship game in 2005 - and there lack of success was a critical part of Mike Bohn's firing.
The plan also states that the Buffs should win a minimum of 12 Championships across many sports programs over this initial period. Other objectives includes that men's basketball program will compete in a Pac-12 Championship game by 2017, the women's basketball program will make at least one NCAA Sweet 16 appearance and that student-athletes will obtain a 2.95 grade point average each semester by 2017.
George also sets the framework that he and others will be accountable for these expectations.

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons hosted the No. 4 Duke Blue Devils on Tuesday night in Winston-Salem. The ACC rivals were both playing their second-to-last games of the 2011-12 regular season and Duke was the clear favorite on paper. Wake Forest made a game of it late, but a big early lead for the Blue Devils held up en route to the 79-71 victory for the visitors.
Duke opened an 11-point lead and headed into halftime on top by a score of 39-28. Wake Forest regrouped in the second half and outscored the Blue Devils 43-40, but the early deficit proved to be too much to overcome.

Duke's Ryan Kelly led all scorers with 23 points, also picking up eight rebounds. Seth Curry also contributed 15 points to the winning effort. On the Wake Forest side, Nikita Mescheriakov led the Demon Deacons' scoring by racking up 18 points.
With the win, Duke improves to 26-4 overall, with a 13-2 record in the ACC, where it remains a half-game ahead of the North Carolina Tar Heels. Wake Forest falls to 13-16 overall, with a 4-11 record in conference play.

One person is in custody after weapons were discovered at Chamblee Charter High School Tuesday, DeKalb school officials say.
No one was injured, and the type of weapon or weapons recovered remains unclear. Officials stated during a news conference Tuesday that three large bags containing 'long guns' were recovered.
A bomb squad was called in to investigate the scene. Authorities say one teenager, 16, is in custody from this incident. The arrested individual is a student at the school, and was recently suspended, officials stated Tuesday afternoon.
Officials say the student had two loaded guns in his possession when we was arrested. Additional weapons were located near the football stadium. Officials say the student admitted to being involved in a robbery near the school, where he obtained the weapons. Authorities say the student was attempting to sell the weapons and was likely not targeting the school for violence, however the investigation continues.
Images from SKYFOX 5 showed an increased police presence around the building near dismissal. All students were dismissed safely, officials say.

(WMC-TV) - A 14-year-old minding his own business, trying to get some change for his mother at the market, was caught in a crossfire one week ago. A convicted cop killer, released from prison less than a year ago, is the accused shooter, according to police.
Stuck in a wheelchair with a thigh-high cast, Wanya Phillips described the shooting scene. He was a happy go lucky Freshman a week ago when he walked into the North Memphis Market.
"They were just arguing and stuff," he said. "I was at the cash register fixing to get change, and that's when they started shooting."
He remembers hearing shots and he went down as two men continued firing.
Police say the shooter was Timothy McKinney, who was convicted of killing Memphis police officer Don Williams. He was sentenced to death row in 1999.
After the conviction was overturned and two subsequent mistrials, a deal resulted in McKinney pleading guilty to second-degree murder in exchange for walking out of jail on time served.
"It's a hot mess, and I'm glad they caught the guy, and I hope this time they do something more than just let him out," said Wanya's mother, Shavonda Smith. "I just thank God every day that me, him, and the rest of my kids are OK and safe."
One bullet hit Wanya.
"Can't feel my [foot]. It's numb right now," said Wanya. "Said 'til my nerve come back, it'll be six months."
McKinney was due in court Thursday morning, but is due back in one week. His sister says police got the wrong man.

Navitas Naturals Maca Power Raw Maca Powder - 7.1 oz. (200 g)
Maca is a root vegetable that is rich in vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Peruvians have used Maca for generations to enhance general health, increase energy and stamina, and to help treat the symptoms of menopasue and low libido. It is believed Maca achieves this by regulating the body's glandular function and promoting hormonal balance in both men and woman.
Navitas Naturals certified organic Maca is cultivated in Junin, Peru 14,000 feet above sea level. Maca Power is pure organic Maca that is non-irradiated and contains no additives or preservatives. A low temperature drying process and milled-to-order, non-oxidized product ensures maximum nutrient preservation. Maca Power is a fair trade product that is sustainably harvested with Navitas Naturals Peruvian partners.
Maca (ma-kuh ) a herbaceous plant native to the high Andes of Bolivia and Peru. It is grown for its fleshy hypocotyl, which is used as a root vegetable and a medicinal herb.
Incan Strength
The root of the maca plant has been used in indigenous Andean cultures as a source of nourishment and healing for many millenniums. A radish-like root, maca is indigenous to the mountainous and ragged terrain of the Peruvian highlands. Although its foliage may be small and unassuming, the harvested root of the maca plant was traditionally used by Incan warriors in preparation for difficult expositions and battles, and was consumed to increase stamina and energy. So esteemed was this special root, that it later became used as a form of currency by the Spaniards -- a practice which still carries on in some areas of Peru even today. Enjoying a massive resurgence in use, maca continues to be one of the most appreciated superfoods on the market. Navitas Naturals offers maca in 4 forms to suit all needs: a raw powder, a gelatinized powder, and a capsulated form of each.
The Power of Maca
Maca has long been used to increase stamina, boost libido, and combat fatigue for good reasons. The root is a superb adaptogen, as it enables the body to more easily adapt to and regulate stress factors imposed upon it. Studies have also identified four alkaloids present in maca, which are known to nourish the endocrine system (the system in the body which is responsible for the production and maintenance of hormones). Maca root is a highly nutrient-dense whole food, as it is packed with vitamins, plant sterols, many essential minerals, amino acids and healthy fats. This is a particularly powerful and balanced food for athletes and those who are looking to combat stress or increase stamina.
Energy Food
Maca is a very potent food, and just a little maca sprinkled into recipes turns any meal into a supermeal. With an earthy taste that is mildly nutty with a hint of butterscotch, maca is easily blended into superfood smoothies, various milks, chocolates, or mixed into flour for dessert recipes. Alternately, use maca straight by taking in a capsule form, and enjoy its benefits anytime and anywhere.
Peruvian lore tells of maca's use during the Tahuantinsuyo Empire. The root was prescribed to warriors in preparation for battle to increase their strength and endurance. However, outside of war-time, warriors were banned from maca as the leaders knew (and modern scientists have confirmed) that maca can increase the libido.
Navitas Naturals mission is to provide premium quality organic power foods that increase energy and enhance health. Navitas products are of the highest quality, sourced directly from farmers, cultivated sustainably and in accordance with fair trade practices.
As a dietary supplement mix 1/2 to 1 teaspoon Maca powder once or more per day into fruit juice, smoothies, yogurt, etc. or as directed by your health car practitioner.

Meet the Fish: Rainbow Trout The resident relative of the steelhead, the rainbow trout is native to the Kenai, Southern Interior, Bristol Bay and limited parts of Southeast Alaska. Available from April to November in both lakes and rivers, the prime fishing time for rainbows occurs in August and September. The rainbow will respond to a large range of patterns, and "Matching the Hatch" in Alaska takes on a whole new meaning, as Alaskan rainbows are voracious feeders. From alevin and fry patterns in the spring to dry flies, nymphs, and mice in the summer and flesh flies in the fall, these hungry trout like meat. Throughout most of its range, the rainbow averages 2-6 lbs, but some rivers host trout that can reach 20+ lbs. Known for its fierce fighting ability and amazing jumping prowess, the rainbow is one of Alaska's premier sport fishing attractions. To view photos of fly caught rainbows in our photo gallery, click here . Gear and Flies Rainbow trout are found in a wide range of water types, and these types will have a bearing upon the choice of rod weights for the angler. A five-pound rainbow in still water can be subdued with a 4wt, but the same fish in the heavy flows of the Kenai would be unmanageable. For still waters, 3, 4, and 5 weight rods are good choices, and for river and stream fishing, 5, 6, and 7 weight are the tool of choice. Reels should also be chosen with water types in mind, as a large rainbow in a big river can peel line off in a hurry. For river applications, the large-arbor, high capacity reels are tough to beat. Depending upon the method of presentation, fly line choices include weight-forward floating lines, sinking tip lines, full-sink lines, and multi-tip systems to deliver your offering to the proper depth. Fly choices for rainbows are many and varied, but popular patterns include the Loco Mouse, AFG Custom String Leech, Big River Bead Selection, and Lead Eye Articulated Flesh Fly.

Thunder Ridge Emu Products - Moisturizing Lotion - 8 oz. (225 ml)
Thunder Ridge Emu Products Moisturizing Lotion is a wonderful moisturizer for dry, aging skin. With daily use you will being to notice softer, younger, healthier looking skin. The skin, being the outer protection of your body, is the first line of defense against the invasion of disease and other harmful elements. Although often neglected, it is essential to maintain good skin integrity. Because of the Essential Fatty Acids naturally present in Emu Oil, the lotion is not only a good moisturizer for dry and irritated skin, but is also a great healer. Combined with Aloe Vera and other natural ingredients, Thunder Ridge Moisturizing Lotion not only hydrates the skin preventing loss of skin integrity, but is also able to penetrate epidermal skin layers down to the basal layer. Particularly important is the addition of both Sodium PCA and Dimethicone which not only act as moisture barriers protecting the skin, but also draw and bind moisture to the skin.
Thunder Ridge Emu Oil naturally contains Linolenic Acid (Omega 3), Linoleic Acid (Omega 6), and Oleic Acid (Omega 9) along with other Essential Fatty Acids. These Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's) have proven beneficial in aiding the healing process. Often called the "Wonder from Down Under", the Australian Aborigines have known for centuries that both the meat and oil of the emu possess special properties which explain its role as a traditional Aboriginal food and medicine.
Maintaining hydration, skin integrity and elasticity is essential for the prevention of dry, aging skin. The application of Emu Oil will allow the Essential Fatty Acids to penetrate the epidermal layers of the skin down to the basal layer where it enhances new cell proliferation. The hyper-oxygenation of the fatty acid esters contained in Emu Oil increase the local blood flow in the areas of application, accelerating the healing process.
A growing number of users, including professional sports teams, chiropractors, massage and physical therapists and other medical professionals, report excellent results from Emu Oil and Emu Oil basal rubs. There is clinical evidence that it contains a high level of Linoleic Acid (Omega 6), a substance known to ease the discomfort of muscle and joint pain. In addition to the healing effects Emu Oil has on the skin and inflamed joints, it is also rich in anti-oxidants which help to slow down the aging process and in some cases actually reverses it. It's anti-bacterial, hypo-allergenic and a natural non-comedogenic. Small Wonder it's a favorite among skin care professionals!
What Is Emu Oil?Emu Oil is an ancient healing tool first used by the Native Peoples of Australia to treat the skin, muscles, scalp/hair and joints. The oil is a base for a multitude of products including emu oil soap, massage oil, lotions and lip balm.
Emu Oil has demonstrated beneficial improvement for the following problems:
About Thunder Ridge Emu ProductsThunder Ridge Emu Products CEO Anne Geller has raised emus since 1993 on her 30-acre ranch outside of Manassas, Virginia. Today, around 2000 emus --flightless birds native to Australia-- roam freely in large fenced pastures in the foothills of the Shenandoah Mountains. Thunder Ridge is the largest emu farm in the eastern United States. Ms. Geller named the Thunder Ridge farm and her company after the low-pitched thunder sound that female emus make. The Australian aborigines' nickname for the emu is translated as "thunder chicken."
Thunder Ridge's unique all-natural feed program is a customized blend of grains and minerals. Thunder Ridge uses no steroids, antibiotics, growth hormones or animal proteins. All meat and oil products from Thunder Ridge emus are completely drug-free. The American Heart Association recommends emu meat, which is low in fat and cholesterol and high in protein and iron. Top chefs and educated consumers have discovered the taste of emu meat is similar to lean beef.
Emu Oil has been used for thousands of years by Australian aborigines for its moisturizing, anti-inflammatory and healing properties. It is one of the most promising ancient remedies to catch on in this millennium!

The screen was smaller than planned, but Dayna Hanson's film had its debut Friday night at the spot where it was shot.
Projecting the film on the big screen television proved too unwieldy, so audience members took turns gathered around the laptop.
Hanson, a choreographer and filmmaker, shot "Cold Light Day" in February at Lakebay Marina. For the debut, marina owner Mark Scott hosted a party.
Dancers Dylan Ward and Jim Kent of Seattle were on hand, along with Hanson and cinematographer Jacob Rosen, also of Seattle.
Scott's daughter, Samantha Scott, worked behind the counter. A student at the University of Puget Sound, she helps out at her parents' business. The old marina is being renovated by her parents and the marina's new owners, Mark and Cindy Scott, who took over the marina in 2012.
"I like how my dad has really preserved the originality of the marina," Samantha Scott said. "It's great to kick off the season with this event."
Hanson hopes to screen the piece at film festivals. Much of the backing track is the rhythm of Kent and Ward's feet along the long dock.
Kent said the technical problems just built up the anticipation for the five-minute film. He had previously only seen clips, but marveled at Hanson's technique in the editing room.
Hanson thanked the Scotts for hosting the crew and letting her live out a dream, and she was especially thankful for saving the marina from ruin.
As a little girl, Hanson spent time on the Key Peninsula. Her first feature, "Improvement Club," was partially shot along the peninsula The old, dilapidated marina was a place she hoped would be restored and become a backdrop for her art.
"It was a really magical day for us," she said of the filming.
Although it wasn't the premier that had been envisioned, there's hope for a repeat showing.
"I really do want to come back and see it bigger," Hanson said.Karen Miller: 253-358-4155 email@example.com Twitter: @gateway_karen

Tonight's Tampa Bay / Philadelphia game is another NBC Sports Network telecast, and that means we have to suffer another polarizing broadcast and the intermission stupidity of Mike Milbury.
Choose Your Own Adventure: "Horror at the Hockey Draft." A satirical take on some of the Islanders' past pitfalls at the NHL draft.
The best quote came from game 1 when Mike Milbury was asked of Roberto Luongo "Did you ever expect this guy to be this good...." and Mike being the total asshat that he is replied "oh absolutely"...I have never felt homicidal until that point...good thing I could fast forward over the rest of his BS.
There's not just the long history of bashing some of the Islanders Hall Of Famers for just being on a good team, or taking pot shots at the Islanders for being a laughing stock (Despite the Devils once being called a Mickey Mouse Organization by some great guy whose name I forgot) but now he claims that the #2 most overlooked Mt Puckmore honoree is Mike Freakin Milbury? Yes, according to Wysh Mike Milbury is more overlooked then Roenick in Chicago, Guy LaFluer in Montreal or Hitchcock in Columbus. In what world should you honor a guy who basically destroyed a franchise for 15 years.

Accounting for human resources: Implications for theory and practice.
Date: December 2001
Creator: Stovall, Olin Scott
Description: Knowledge workers are an important resource for the typical modern business firm, yet financial reporting ignores such resources. Some researchers contend that the accounting profession has stressed reliability in order to make the accounting appear objective. Others concur, noting that accounting is an insecure profession and adopts strict rules when faced with uncertainty. Accountants have promulgated a strict rule to expense human resource costs, although many know that such resources have future benefits. Some researchers suggest that any discipline must modify its language in order to initiate change toward providing useful social ameliorations. If accounting theorists extend this idea to the accounting lexicon.s description of investments in human resources, investors and other accounting user groups might gain greater insight into how a firm fosters and nourishes human capital. I tested three hypotheses related to this issue by administering an experiment designed to assess financial analysts. perceptions about alternative financial statement treatments of human resources in an investment recommendation task. I predicted that (1) analysts' perceptions of the reliability (relevance) of the information they received would decrease (increase) as the treatment of human resources increasingly violated GAAP (became more current-oriented), (2) analysts exposed to alternative accounting treatments would report a lower ...

Auditors' Information Search and Documentation: Does Knowledge of the Client Preference Or PCAOB Accountability Pressure Matter?
Date: May 2012
Creator: Olvera, Renee M.
Description: Auditors regularly make judgments regarding whether a client's chosen accounting policy is appropriate and in accordance with generally accepted accounting Principles (GAAP). However, to form this judgment, auditors must either possess adequate topic-specific knowledge or must gain such knowledge through information search. This search is subject to numerous biases, including a bias toward confirmation of a client's preference. It is important to further our understanding of bias in auditors' information search to identify its causes and effects. Furthering our understanding is necessary to provide a basis for recommending and evaluating a potential debiaser, such as accountability. the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) annually inspects the audit files of selected engagements, which introduces a new form of accountability within the auditing profession. This new form of accountability has come at great cost, however, there is little empirical evidence regarding its effects on auditors' processes. As such, it is important to understand whether the presence of accountability from the PCAOB is effective in modifying auditors' search behaviors to diminish confirmation bias. Using an online experiment, I manipulate client preference (unknown vs. known) and PCAOB accountability pressure (low vs. high) and measure search type (information –focus or decision-focus), search depth (shallow or ...

Balanced scorecards: An experimental study of the effects of linking the evaluators' and subordinates' balanced scorecards on performance evaluation.
Date: December 2008
Creator: Kang, Gerui
Description: In the early 1990s, Robert Kaplan and David Norton introduced and developed a new performance measurement and management system called the balanced scorecard (BSC). Most studies have found that evaluators tend to ignore or are not willing to use nonfinancial measures. This study attempts to examine whether the explicit linkage between the evaluator's BSC and the subordinate's BSC makes the evaluators use nonfinancial measures in performance evaluation. This study used an experimental design where subjects were asked to evaluate two managers' performance under explicit linkage versus nonexplicit linkage conditions. The difference between performance evaluation scores of the two managers under the two linkage conditions captures the influence of explicit linkage between BSCs on performance evaluation. I used regression analyses to test my hypothesis. The results of the regression analyses support my hypothesis. This study attempts to explore one possible reason for evaluators' not using nonfinancial measures much in performance evaluation. It is the first one that studies the influence of the linkage between the BSCs on performance evaluation.

The Changing Role and Responsibilities of Audit Committees in the United States
Date: August 2010
Creator: Teed, Dan Graham
Description: The corporate form that developed in the early 20th century created enormous pressure for corporate governance mechanisms to curb the power of corporate managers. Berle and Means, legal pluralists, warned about concentrating economic power in the hands of a small but powerful class of professional managers. They claimed this "new form of absolutism" required governmental oversight and viewed boards of directors as part of management, rather than monitors for shareholders. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposed that corporations establish a special board committee, made up of "nonofficer members" in response to the McKesson & Robbins scandal of the late 1930s. My dissertation examines the evolution of the U.S. corporate audit committee through three specific time periods: (1) 1920-1954; (2) 1955-1986; and (3) 1987 to the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. My purpose is to determine if evolution of the audit committee throughout these periods has been a reform continually couched in symbolism or whether the audit committee concept has evolved into real reform, allowing proper corporate governance and mitigation of unchecked corporate power. My analysis is a traditional empirical analysis, relying on both primary and secondary sources to develop a coherent ordering of facts. I use narrative ...

A Comparison of Cognitive Moral Development of Accounting Students at a Catholic University with Secular University Accounting Students
Date: April 1998
Creator: Koeplin, John P. (John Peter)
Description: Previous research has shown that accountants may be inadequate moral reasoners. Concern over this trend caused the Treadway Commission (1987) and the Accounting Education Change Commission (1990) to call for greater integration of ethics into the student's training. Ponemon and Glazer (1990) found a difference in cognitive moral development (CMD) between accounting students at a public university and a private university with a liberal arts emphasis. This study expands Ponemon and Glazer's research by examining two liberal arts universities, one a private, secular institution and one a Catholic institution. The primary research question asks if Catholic university accounting students manifest greater CMD growth than secular university accounting students. Additionally, this study examines and compares the priority that accounting students from the different institutions place on ethical values versus economic values. It was expected that Catholic university accounting students would manifest both greater CMD growth and a greater concern for ethical values over economic values when compared with non-Catholic university accounting students. The study utilized a two-phase approach. In the first phase, an organizational study of two institutions was made to determine how each strives to integrate moral development into their accounting students' education. In the second phase, lower-division and senior ...

Does the knowledge of unaudited account balances adversely affect the performance of substantive analytical procedures?
Date: December 2009
Creator: Pike, Byron J.
Description: Auditors use substantive analytical procedures to make assertions about the adequacy and appropriateness of client balances. The analytical procedure process consists of auditors creating independent account expectations and corroborating unusual fluctuations through obtaining and evaluating additional audit evidence. Prior analytical procedure research has found that knowledge of clients' unaudited account balances biases auditors' expectations towards the current year figures. However, this research has failed to examine the impact of biased expectations on the subsequent stages of analytical procedures. This dissertation assesses the full impact of biased account expectations on auditors' use of analytical procedures. I experimentally test the hypotheses of my dissertation through administering an experiment to senior level auditors. After inducing an account expectation bias that favors the client account balance in half the participants, I examine the auditors' cognitive investigation into an unusual account fluctuation. The results indicate that a biased account expectation negatively affects auditors' judgment quality. In particular, a biased expectation leads auditors to favor hypotheses and additional information that supports the proposition that the client's balance is reasonably stated. Alternatively, auditors with unbiased account expectations are more willing to consider all hypotheses and are able to identify the most pertinent additional information to the decision ...

The Effect of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 on the Accuracy of Financial Analysts' Earnings Forecasts after Mergers
Date: May 2005
Creator: Mintchik, Natalia Maksimovna
Description: This study examines the impact of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 and No. 142 (hereafter SFAS 141, 142) on the characteristics of financial analysts' earnings forecasts after mergers. Specifically, I predict lower forecast errors for firms that experienced mergers after the enactment of SFAS 141, 142 than for firms that went through business combinations before those accounting changes. Study results present strong evidence that earnings forecast errors for companies involved in merging and acquisition activity decreased after the adoption of SFAS 141, 142. Test results also suggest that lower earnings forecast errors are attributable to factors specific to merging companies such as SFAS 141, 142 but not common to merging and non-merging companies. In addition, evidence implies that information in corporate annual reports of merging companies plays the critical role in this decrease of earnings forecast error. Summarily, I report that SFAS 141, 142 were effective in achieving greater transparency of financial reporting after mergers. In my complementary analysis, I also document the structure of corporate analysts' coverage in "leaders/followers" terms and conduct tests for differences in this structure: (1) across post-SFAS 141,142/pre-SFAS 141, 142 environments, and (2) between merging and non-merging firms. Although I do not identify ...

An examination of the factors that influence an auditor's decision to use a decision aid in their assessment of management fraud.
Date: May 2006
Creator: Hayes, Thomas Patrick
Description: In recent years, the accounting profession has faced increased scrutiny because of scandals involving management fraud (e.g., Enron, WorldCom). In response, Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) #99 has expanded auditors' responsibility for detecting fraud, requiring auditors to gather significantly more information in their assessment of fraud. In addition, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) will focus on fraud detection through their inspections of registered accounting firms. In light of the increased emphasis on auditors' responsibility for detecting fraud, public accounting firms face the challenge of improving their fraud detection process, including their assessment of management fraud risk. Decision aids are one way for auditors to improve their assessment of management fraud risk. In fact, several studies from the decision aid literature suggest that aids are useful tools for a variety of tasks, including fraud risk assessment. At the same time, another stream of the decision aid reliance literature, which looks at people's willingness to rely on decision aids, suggests that individuals tend to be reluctant to accept the output given by an aid. Thus, the primary focus of this paper is on uncovering factors that would encourage one to voluntarily use and rely upon a decision aid. Toward that ...

An Experimental Examination of the Effects of Fraud Specialist and Audit Mindsets on Fraud Risk Assessments and on the Development of Fraud-Related Problem Representations
Date: August 2010
Creator: Chui, Lawrence
Description: Fraud risk assessment is an important audit process that has a direct impact on the effectiveness of auditors' fraud detection in an audit. However, prior literature has shown that auditors are generally poor at assessing fraud risk. The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) suggests that auditors may improve their fraud risk assessment performance by adopting a fraud specialist mindset. A fraud specialist mindset is a special way of thinking about accounting records. While auditors think about the company's recorded transactions in terms of the availability of supporting documentations and the authenticity of the audit trail, fraud specialists think instead of accounting records in terms of the authenticity of the events and activities that are behind the reported transactions. Currently there is no study that has examined the effects of the fraud specialist mindset on auditors' fraud risk assessment performance. In addition, although recent studies have found that fraud specialists are more sensitive than auditors in discerning fraud risk factors in situation where a high level of fraud risk is present, it remains unclear whether the same can be said for situation where the risk of fraud is low. Thus, the purpose of my dissertation is to examine the effects ...

One of Cleveland's most famous landmarks is kicking off its 30th anniversary celebration!
A Christmas Story House & Museum will be hosting a Christmas in July event, at the iconic house used in the filming of A Christmas Story movie.
A Christmas Story, released November 1983, is a delightfully funny holiday classic that tells the story of Ralphie Parker, a 1940's nine-year-old who pulls out all the stops to obtain the ultimate Christmas present. The movie is based on the childhood memoirs of humorist Jean Shepherd (from his hilarious book In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash).
A Christmas Story was filmed in Cleveland in the early 1980s and many of the infamous filming locations can be found around the city and enjoyed.
Events planned for the 30th Anniversary Celebration of A Christmas Story are as follows:

Skidmore Student Garden
In April 2009, the volunteers from the Environmental Action Club, with the support of Facilities Services, broke
ground to create the Skidmore College Student Garden. The garden supplies local food,
grown using organic practices, to Skidmore's dining hall. The garden facilitates
a connection to and appreciation for the food the students who eat in the Dining Hall and offers
hands-on learning opportunities for the Skidmore community. The garden provides an
outlet for students interested in environmental issues, social justice, and economic
sustainable development to learn about the local food movement and the ecology of
food. In its first season the garden produced over 1,100 lbs of food and the the
students hosted a "harvest dinner" that served over 150 students food that was either
produced by the student garden or donated by The Saratoga Farmer's Market. Please
click here to learn more about the Skidmore Student Garden.
- 2012 Season - The Skidmore Student Garden is already underway for the 2012 summer
season! Volunteers have helped throughout the spring and summer to plant, weed, harvest,
and provide assistance with other activities! In addition, Camp North Woods, which
has kids from 1st grade through 6th grade, also came to the garden on July 25th to
help out and learn about what grows there and what some of it tastes like! There
are many beds in the garden, planted with items such as: carrots, rainbow swiss chard,
zucchini, cucumbers, tomatoes, and herbs.
- Read the Student Garden blog - Can Ya Dig It?
- Students in the Environmental Action Club's Food Group put together an amazing Local Foods Cookbook. Special thanks to Jewels O'Brien '15 and Laura Mindlin '15 for putting a lot of
time and effort into this project.

Alison Sweeney dropped a big announcement on Tuesday during her interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, as reported by USA Today.
"I've been on Days of Our Lives for 21 years. I'm celebrating my 21st year," says Sweeney. "And I decided that it's going to be my last year with the show."
Sweeney, who is also the host of The Biggest Loser, has been on Days of Our Lives since she was 16. She has been doing both shows for the last seven years.
According to USA Today, Sweeney has decided to call it quits with the soap opera in order to spend more time with her kids.
"I just have, you know, worked so much and my daughter (Megan) just turned 5 and my son (Benjamin) is 9 and I just want to be with them and enjoy my last year. I'm going to be on Days all this year," says Sweeney.

Dan Blair led the way with three medals as four of Oxfordshire's top players enjoyed a productive trip to compete in the Hampshire Under 16 Open.
Blair, from Didcot, opened his account in the boys singles, thrashing Devon's Will Friar 21-10, 21-13 in the final.
He then teamed up with Brize Norton's Ben Roberts to claim the boys doubles title, beating Friar and his partner, Andrew Brownlie of Sussex, 21-14, 21-14. Blair could not quite complete a golden hat-trick in Winchester, as he and Kezia Lawson (Benson) had to settle for a silver in the mixed doubles.
They eventually lost a closely-contested final 21-19, 20-22, 21-19 to Dorset's Jack McGregor and Freya Patel-Redfearn, from Middlesex. Megan Ready, of Long Wittenham, completed the quartet, teaming up with Lawson to win a bronze in the girls doubles.

He's dealing with a sprained AC joint but isn't expected to be out for much longer. Claiborne says he'll be ready for Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers. He took part in practice this week and said he has full range of motion in his shoulder. He will receive a pre-game injection to help him deal with the pain next Sunday, Sept. 7.

Minnesota Vikings RB Adrian Peterson had a phone conversation with Dallas Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones in June where he stated he would be interested in joining the Cowboys when his time with the Vikings is over. Jones said he has not talked with Peterson since the phone call and does not believe that the call should be considered tampering.
Fantasy Tip: There is nothing to suggest that Peterson will be a member of the Cowboys in the near future. Peterson will continue to play for the Vikings and is one of the top running backs in fantasy.

Wed, 27 Aug 2014 10:47:00 -0700
Dallas Cowboys WR Dez Bryant met with owner/general manager Jerry Jones Tuesday, Aug. 26, to discuss his contract situation, according to sources. The two sides have talked about a contract extension for months but no deal has been reached at this point. The biggest obstacle in the talks appears to be the guaranteed money included in the deal.
Fantasy Tip: It would be nice if the two sides reached an agreement before the start of the season, but it should not be a distraction if no deal is reached. Bryant is entering the season as one of the top wide receivers in fantasy football.

After several hours of heated debate, a former Prairie Village school will not be turned into a senior housing development.
The City Council heard arguments on both sides of the debate before making the decision about 1 a.m. Wednesday.
In order to pass, the developers needed 10 votes, but they only received seven from council members.
Those opposed to the development have been vocal.
They mailed flyers that said, "The proposed mission valley redevelopment is a ridiculous fantasy. The real story will hurt Prairie Village."
The council was deciding whether or not the site of the old Mission Valley Middle School located at West 85th Street and Mission Road would become a senior housing development.
Tutera Senior Living and Healthcare submitted plans for the Mission Chateau Senior Housing Development, which called for a 327-unit senior living facility that spanned 18 acres.
Residents in the area put up signs all over town in protest, saying the plan is too big and just is not a good fit for their community.
They secured a protest petition forcing the council to secure a super majority- 10 votes to approve the plan.
Whitney Kerr is among those opposing the project. She says it's too large for the neighborhood.
"It's way out of character with the neighborhood," she said. "This project is nearly four times the size of the school that's there now. It's too large, it's out of character and the other concern is it's all rental property. We don't think it's appropriate to have rental property next to some of the nicest single family-owner occupied homes in the area. Owner-occupied homes is what made Prairie Village an attractive place to live."
The public comment session lasted several hours and prompted scolding from the city attorney.
"You know, audience, calm down. We are working hard up here. And your snide comments are obnoxious, and I hope the mayor will call them out of order. It is just unbelievable that you could be so rude to people who are up here working really hard," city attorney Katie Logan said.
City Councilman Dale Warman said he voted yes.
"I believe that the planning commission did their due diligence. They listened to the people and the developer and negotiated to make sure this met the requirements for Prairie Village zoning and regulations as well as the goal," Warman said
However, City Councilwoman Laura Wassmer had a different opinion.
"I vote no. I think the intensity, the two-and-half to three years of construction, the lights, the noise, the traffic, the parking ... that is a lot to ask neighbors to put up with," Wassmer said.
KCTV5 asked the developer and his attorney for comment after the meeting, but they declined.
Their only remaining option would be to appeal, and that would send it to Johnson County court. They haven't yet decided whether they will appeal.

CATEGORIES MoviesAre you sick of "Star Wars" news yet? I hope not, because Entertainment Weekly just confirmed some big stuff. In addition to the J.J. Abrams-directed "Episode VII," EW reports that Disney is planning spin-off films for two of the franchise's most beloved characters, Han Solo and Boba Fett.
According to EW, the Han Solo movie would focus on the smuggler's origin story and "would take place in the time period between 'Revenge of the Sith' and the first 'Star Wars.'" As for the Boba Fett film, that "would take place either between 'A New Hope' and 'The Empire Strikes Back,' or between 'Empire' and 'Jedi,' where the bounty hunter was last seen plunging unceremoniously into a sarlacc pit." These timelines would even allow Disney to bring back both Darth Vader and Jabba the Hut. However, EW also notes that the projects are in an early development phase, and that "the deal could be altered further."
Yesterday, Disney CEO Bob Iger said that writers Lawrence Kasdan and Simon Kinberg would be "working on films derived from great Star Wars characters that are not part of the overall saga," but did not elaborate any further. Kasdan co-wrote 1980's "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi." Kinberg is writing the sequel to "X-Men: Days of Future Past."
This news comes two days after Harry Knowles of Ain't It Cool News reported that a Yoda spin-off was in the works. While that has not yet been confirmed, EW's Anthony Breznican -- who broke the Fett/Solo story -- tweeted that this announcement does not negate the potential for a Yoda movie.
"Star Wars Episode VII" has been scheduled for a 2015 release date. No word on release dates for the spin-off films. For more on this story, head to Entertainment Weekly.

WSU Symphony Orchestra to feature faculty cellist
Dec 3, 2012 10:27 AM | Print
Faculty cellist Leonid Shukaev, a founding member of the St. Petersburg String Quartet, will appear as soloist with the Wichita State University Symphony Orchestra at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 6, in Miller Concert Hall. Featuring music by Tchaikovsky, Berlioz, and Mason Bates, the program will be conducted by Mark Laycock, director of Orchestras.
Tickets are $7 with discounts available through the College of Fine Arts Box Office at (316) 978-3233 or www.wichita.edu/fineartsboxoffice.
Shukaev will perform Tchaikosky's Variations on a Rococo Theme, a virtuosic showpiece for cello and orchestra. The work, named for an ornate style of early classical music, ranges in mood from melancholy to impetuous, intimate to heroic. Despite its title, musicologists believe the theme is Tchaikovsky's own original creation.
The program also features Berlioz' Symphonie Fantastique, one of the first great masterworks of the Romantic era. The revolutionary, faintly autobiographical work, composed when Berlioz was 26 years old, is a powerful, vibrant depiction of obsessive love and its fatal consequences. Opening the concert will be "White Lies for Lomax" by contemporary composer Mason Bates. Its jazz-inspired rhythm and harmony pay tribute to ethnomusicologist Alan Lomax, one of the first scholars to preserve the music of the American South.
A graduate of the St. Petersburg Conservatory, Shukaev studied with Emanuel Fishmann, the teacher of Misha Maisky and Boris Pergamenshikov. Shukaev served on the faculties of the St. Petersburg Conservatory and the Rimsky-Korsakov Music College, where he held the position of professor of cello and string quartet. He is also a former faculty member of the Oberlin Conservatory.
Several of his students have been winners of international competitions, and many of them now play in European and Russian orchestras and teach in conservatories in Russia.
