Campaigners can challenge tax deal
2:55pm Wednesday 13th June 2012 in National News © Press Association 2014
The legality of an alleged 'sweetheart' deal between Goldman Sachs and HM Revenue and Customs can be challenged in court, a judge has ruled
Tax avoidance campaigners have won High Court permission to challenge an alleged "sweetheart" deal between Goldman Sachs and HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).
UK Uncut Legal Action was given leave by Mr Justice Simon, sitting in London, to seek a declaration that an agreement allowing the banking giant to skip a multimillion-pound interest bill on unpaid tax on bonuses was unlawful.
It wants £20 million allegedly involved to be returned to the public purse.
The judge ruled UK Uncut had "an arguable case" that should go to a full judicial review hearing.
Ingrid Simler QC, appearing for UK Uncut, said HMRC reached a settlement in a dispute over National Insurance due on bonuses with Goldman Sachs in 2010 without requiring the payment of interest.
The potential cost to the taxpayer is officially put at £8 million but a whistleblower says the sum could be as high as £20 million. The bank was allowed to skip the interest bill after the country's top tax official, Dave Hartnett, was wrongly advised there was a "legal impediment" to collecting it.
Ms Simler said the error was quickly noticed, but, despite legal advice that the agreement with the bank was not binding, HMRC unlawfully withdrew a County Court claim for what was owed without seeking to re-negotiate. She added: "Does it put embarrassment over the acknowledged mistake to one side and correct the error - or does it put the embarrassment first and avoid correction?"
James Eadie QC, appearing for HMRC, had argued that UK Uncut's application for permission should be refused.
He said the National Audit Office (NAO) was producing a report for Parliament on an investigation by a senior judge into a series of highly controversial tax deals, including the Goldman Sachs deal. Mr Eadie argued that it would be more "appropriate and convenient" to allow Parliament to deal with the whole matter.
Disagreeing, the judge said the report was likely to decide a number of important factual questions relevant to maladministration, but it would not deal with the legal issues raised in court. The judge said: "There is plainly public interest in this matter, and maladministration and legality are separate issues."

Fort Wayne, Ind.—Indiana congressman Mark Souder (R) announced his resignation effective Friday, after admitting to having an affair with a staffer.
"I sinned against God, my wife and my family by having a mutual relationship with a part-time member of my staff," said Souder.
The 59-year-old congressman likely would have faced an investigation by the House of Representatives Ethics Committee had he not stepped down. Souder did not want to put his family through that investigation.
"I'm resigning rather than put my family through a painful, drawn-out process, of which any legal question would have been clearly resolved, and I would have been exonerated, but, the political price to pay and the personal price for my family was not worth it," said Souter.
The self-proclaimed Evangelical Christian was well known for being an advocate of abstinence in sex education. In a video on his youtube channel, Souder is interviewed by one of his staffers about his support on the issue. That staffer on the video, Tracy Jackson, is the one he reportedly had an affair with.
Souder's admission comes just two weeks after winning a tight Republican primary in Northeast Indiana. Previously, he was an
aide to former Senator Dan Coats. When Souder first ran for office, he promised to serve no more than 12 years. He's now in his 16th year in the House.
"I can never fully thank all those who have worked so hard, given so much and supported me through eight contested primaries and eight general elections," Souder emotionally said. "Only when you have been the recipient can you really feel the humbling power of such generosity."
Republican and Democratic precinct leaders in Souder's district will have 30 days from friday to select candidates to run in a special election to fill the remainder of souder's term.
That election would likely take place in the next two or three months.
"It is with great regret I announce that I am resigning from the U.S. House of Representatives, as well as resigning as the Republican nominee for Congress in this fall's election. I believe it is the best decision for my family, the people of northeast Indiana, and our country.
I will submit my resignation to Speaker Pelosi effective this Friday. I can never fully thank all those who have worked so hard, given so much and supported me through eight contested primaries and eight general elections. Only when you have been the recipient can you really feel the humbling power of such generosity.
It has been a privilege to be a part of the battle for freedom and the values we share. It has been a great honor to fight for the needs, the jobs, and the future of this region where my family has lived for over 160 years. It has been all consuming for me to do this job well, especially in a district with costly, competitive elections every two years I do not have any sort of "normal" life - for family, for friends, for church, for community.
To serve has been a blessing and a responsibility given from God. I wish I could have been a better example. I sinned against God, my wife and my family by having a mutual relationship with a part-time member of my staff. In the poisonous environment of Washington D.C., any personal failing is seized upon, often twisted, for political gain.
I am resigning rather than to put my family through that painful, drawn-out process.diane and my family were more than willing to stand here with me. We are a committed family. But the error is mine and I should bear the responsibility, not only am I thankful for a loving family but for a loving God. My comfort is that God is a gracious and forgiving God to those who sincerely seek his forgiveness as I do. But I am so ashamed to have hurt those I love.
I am so sorry to have let so many friends down, people who have fought so hard for me. The ideas we advocate are still just and right. America will survive and thrive when anchored in those values.human beings, like me, will fail, but our cause is greater than individuals. It is based upon eternal truths.
By stepping aside, my mistake cannot be used as a political football in a partisan attempt to undermine the cause for which I have labored all my adult life. I love this area. This is my home. It has been such an honor to serve you. For sixteen years, my family and I have given our all for this area. The toll has been high.
As I leave public office, my plans are focused upon repairing my marriage, earning back the trust of my family and my community, and renewing my walk with my Lord. I humbly ask you, for the sake of my family that you respect our privacy in this difficult time."
The precinct leaders in Souder's district have 30 days from his resignation to select a replacement. One name reportedly being considered is State Senator Marlin Stutzman, who ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Senate earlier this month.
Car dealer Bob Thomas, who almost beat Souder in the primary two weeks ago, is another possibility. Democrats must also caucus and select a candidate, to face off in a special election, which would likely take place in the next two to three months.
The likely democratic candidate would be Tom Hayhurst, who held Souder to 54% of the vote four years ago.

A grand jury has indicted a Richland Hills man accused of cutting a pentagram into his son's back with a box cutter.
Brent Bartel called 911 last December saying he carved the
symbol on the 6-year-old because it was a holy day. The cuts were not life
threatening, but covered the majority of the child's back.
Bartel was indicted on a charge of aggravated assault with a
deadly weapon.
If convicted he will face up to 20 years in prison.

Friday was my last day to ice fish, but something besides catching fish was on my plate. The ice would soon be gone, and it was time to plan for the future.
My first two holes produced right away, but then I know where to fish on this lake. I was fishing with good friend Todd Staley and cousin Jay Bramwell. They were catching fish, too.
When the pit owner showed up, I asked for some twine and a cement block. He had both. I quit fishing and began gathering bushy tree limbs that had blown down during the winter. Once I had my brush pile organized, I tied it all together and then to the cement block.
It was tough to build a crappie hotel while my friends were catching fish, but this was a project I had put off all winter.
Like most pits, this one has shoreline weeds and logs but little structure in deep water. The crappie always seem to be scattered and difficult to locate. Now they have a home. Their new hotel is in about 16 feet of water along a ledge. The highest branches will be at 10 feet — a perfect situation for crappie and big bass.
This brush will be a medium cast from shoreline, and many a guest will curse my name when they get hung up. Unfortunately, I probably will not get the credit when they leave with a bag full of fish.
Late afternoon Monday, the pit owner witnessed the brush pile slowly descend through the ice. First the block broke through, and then gradually the hole got larger and could hold the wood no longer. It took about two hours.
Crappie like to roam, and when they find this place they will set up house cleaning. As algae forms on the branches, it will attract minnows. The prey will draw the predators.

First Round Management today announced that two of its clients, who also happen to be top contenders in their respective divisions, were recently rewarded with multi-fight contract extensions.
Former World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) champions Carlos Condit (welterweight) and Ben Henderson have re-upped with the world's largest mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion. Exact details of either deal were not disclosed.
"The Natural Born Killer" and "Smooth" have both enjoyed significant success since switching promotional sweaters, combining for six wins in seven appearances. Condit has been in the fold longer, riding a four-fight win streak after dropping his Octagon debut to Martin Kampmann back in 2009.
Henderson, meanwhile, has won back-to-back fights since his premiere performance, including a dominant win over top 155-pound contender Jim Miller at UFC on Versus 5 just last month.
"These fight contract extensions show the MMA world that the UFC values Ben Henderson and Carlos Condit as two of its top, young stars," their manager, Malki Kawa, said in a statement. "Both are only 27 years old and have proven that they are contenders for titles in their weight divisions and also have strong fan bases. Fans will now be able to see them continue to grow in the Octagon."
Condit is currently preparing to take on former world champion B.J. Penn at UFC 137: "St. Pierre vs. Diaz" in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Oct. 29, 2011. Henderson does not have an opponent lined up at this time; however, he and Clay Guida have been trying to coordinate a fight together through social media.

Will the next four years get any better? Two political reporters say that it depends on who you vote for.By Jamelle Bouie, Philip Klein Photos: Results from ARCHITECT's online pollThe Poll: From Aug. 30 until Sept. 12, we asked you: Who will get your vote as the best candidate for architecture?

With the presidential election coming up, we asked two seasoned political writers to break down the case for which candidate would most benefit architects and other design and construction professionals—Jemelle Bouie of The American Prospect defending the Democratic ticket of Barack Obama and Joseph Biden, and Philip Klein of The Washington Examiner defending the Republican ticket of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. (In true debate style, we also gave Bouie and Klein the opportunity for a rebuttal to each others' cases. Check back tomorrow to read those.)Below, we begin first with Bouie's defense of the incumbent. Klein's defense of the challenger begins on the next page.* * *A Vote for Obama/Biden By Jamelle BouieSo far this year, a lot of pundits have wasted a lot of digital ink on the idea that this is an unusually high-stakes election. Commentators say this for every election, and most times, they're wrong. But, at the risk of sounding cliché, even a stopped clock is right twice a day, and in this case the pundits are on point.But if this is an important choice for the public writ large, then it's a critical one for architects. As a profession, architecture has been in a tough spot for the last four years. Compared to other workers with college and graduate degrees, architects were hit hard by the housing bust and financial crisis—unemployment for experienced architecture college graduates is 9.2 percent, according to the American Community Survey, compared to 4.1 percent for college grads as a whole.A critical choice, though, doesn't have to be a tough one, and if one looks at recent public policy, it's clear that the profession would be best served by a continuation of the path set by the Obama administration.Since entering office in 2009, President Barack Obama has pursued a series of tax measures to benefit small businesses. The stimulus, the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act, and the Small Business Jobs Act included tax exemptions for key investments, tax credits for hiring out-of-work Americans, greater deductions for startup costs, capital-gains tax cuts, and a measure that raised the small-business expense limit to $500,000.The Affordable Care Act is another measure that benefits small architecture firms. Under the law, businesses with more than 50 employees will have to provide insurance to their employees—or face a penalty. Of course, this exempts most architecture firms, the large majority of which employ fewer than 10 people. Those firms—and the people they employ—will have the opportunity to purchase insurance off of the regulated markets established by Obamacare, where insurers will compete with each other for customers on the basis of price. The hope is that this will lower costs and make it easier for small-business owners to provide a key benefit to their employees. Businesses that take this step will receive a tax credit to help cover the cost.On the other hand, Obama has promised to raise taxes on high earners in his second term, and there's a real worry that this will affect small-business owners and middle-class workers. But the good news is that, according to the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation, just 3.5 percent of small-business tax filers—or 940,000 individuals—would pay a higher rate. Another analysis, from the left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, notes that only 2.5 percent of small-business owners who are taxed at individual rates—a somewhat smaller pool of people—fall into the top two income brackets. Given architects' median income of $72,550—according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics—odds are good that most architects will see little change in their tax burden.There's also the issue of the architecture students and graduates who have been hit hard by high tuition costs and a sluggish economy—at a time when average in-state tuition and fees for bachelor programs in architecture have increased by 3.4 percent to $20,115. (For graduate programs, the increase is closer to 2 percent.) The Obama administration has recently moved forward with a program that would ease the burden on those struggling to repay federal student loans. The Income-Based Repayment Plan would allow borrowers to cap their student-loan payments at 15 percent of their discretionary income. And for the long-term, it has proposed a "Race to the Top"–style program for higher education to reward schools that lower tuition costs and boost value.Other than a few references to cutting taxes for small businesses or helping out students, you won't hear much about these policies from Obama on the trail. But they are all concrete steps that will continue if he's elected to a second term, and might even expand if he can get congressional support. That's what happens when you elect a president who sees a role for government in the maintenance of the economy.This isn't to say that the administration has been perfect for the architectural field; to wit, its lackluster response to the housing crisis has been tough for architects, whose fortunes are tied tightly to the performance of the housing market. But on a whole host of other concerns, the Obama administration has proven beneficial. This is especially true for the roughly 21 percent of architects who the IRS reports are self-employed.It's possible that Gov. Mitt Romney will see a need to pursue similar policies to Obama if he's elected president. After all, he built his fortune as a sensible businessman who took wise advantage of benefits provided by the government. But, it's also true that he's the leader of the Republican Party, which has little interest in government as a proactive tool for improving the economy.And while the president isn't bound by the beliefs of his party, he is strongly influenced by them. A vote for the status quo isn't inspiring. In this case, though, it's the best bet for an economy that works for both architects and all workers.Click to the next page to read Philip Klein's defense of the Romney/Ryan ticket.

Here is a brief guide to our new Linux Redhat 7.3 server in Astro to get you started. All requests for help and enquiries relating to the server should come through the astro helpdek by email. There is ~80GB of space in the /home partition for all users. The 1.1TB Raid array is housed under /data and each user has a directory on the data disk. There are no quotas imposed but disk usage will be monitored so don't use more than your fair share. Backup data to DVD and remove it from the disk once you have finished using it.
You can logon astro via xterminal however once you logon you may like to change to a less graphic intensive window manager for your 8-bit terminal. To do this go to the main menu -> programs -> settings -> desktop -> windows manager and choose something like ICEwm.
Our new server is not a mail server. Do not advertise your email address as 'firstname.lastname@example.com' under any circumstances as mail to that address will be blocked at the central unsw mail server and bounce back to the sender. At all times you should advertise your email address as either email@example.com or email@example.com School of Physics is currently setting up a dedicated centralized IMAP mail server which should be online very soon. This will enable to you to read your mail on any server using any program and always see the same mail folders which are centralized on this server.
In the meantime........
When the new dedicated IMAP server is online I will send out a guide that will enable you to upload your existing mail folders, addressbooks and configuration files to it making the transition to IMAP seamless.As we are now transitioning over to the new imap server I recommend everyone read this page.I have also also setup a quick page that tells you how to read your mail via imap using evolution.

The internet has been buzzing about Filly Brown. The film starring Gina Rodriguez, Lou Diamond Phillips, Edward James Olmos, and Jenni Rivera hit theaters this past Friday and made close to $1.5 million over the weekend. It's an impressive opening for an independent Latino film.
Historically, Latino films have struggled at the box office but once in a while there's a breakout hit. Last year's most successful Latino film Casa de mi Padre, a Spanish-language comedy starring Will Ferrell, Diego Luna, and Gael Garcia Bernal, made $5.9 million. Only two other films were able to surpass the million dollar mark, For Greater Glory starring Andy Garcia, Eva Longoria, and Ruben Blades ($5.6 million) and Girl in Progress starring Eva Mendes ($2.6 million). The remaining top grossing Latino films of 2012 each made less than $200,000. (Take into consideration that mainstream Hollywood blockbusters make hundreds of millions of dollars.)
What does it take for a Latino film to hit it big?
It's hard to predict what makes any film successful but there are a few factors that can help. Last year's hits all had big name stars. So far this year's Latino blockbusters (I'm using this term loosely) have also had the benefit of celebrity lead actors, an Oscar nomination, and being adapted from a popular Chicano novel. NO, starring Gael Garcia Bernal, grossed $2 million and earned Chile its first ever Best Foreign Language Film nomination. Bless Me Ultima brought Rudolfo Anaya's beloved book of the same title to the screen and reached $1.5 million.
Is that all it takes, a famous actor?
No, not really. There are lots of examples of films with celebrities attached that bombed at the box office. But, it definitely helps. So does using targeted traditional marketing, getting some good reviews, employing grassroots techniques such as advance screenings to build word of mouth, and engaging audiences with social media. It's not rocket science; it's the same for all indie films not just Latino ones. But, despite the fact that Latinos go to movies way more than other ethnic groups marketers have mostly failed at attracting Latino audiences to Latino films, en masse.
There was a time in the eighties known as the "Hispanic Hollywood" when major studios distributed films like the smash hit La Bamba ($45 million), Born in East L.A. ($17 million), and Stand and Deliver ($14 million). For the first time they created bilingual marketing campaigns and even circulated film prints that were subtitled or dubbed in Spanish.
In the early nineties, studios moved away from grassroots campaigns and poured their money into English and Spanish-language television advertising. They also hoped for a few good reviews from newspaper critics to help raise a film's visibility. Towards the late nineties, as it became apparent that Latino films were not likely to be box office hits distributors began to experiment with "hybrid films" that included multiethnic casts and targeted a general audience.
What do we do now?
What's been tried in the past hasn't worked, except for a few outliers. I personally think that the theatrical distribution of Latino films is a mistake. It is not a moneymaking venture. Yes, Latinos go to the movies a lot but these filmgoers are mostly young English-speaking Latinos who, up until now, have not shown interest in Latino films (in English or Spanish.) But, I do think there is way to make it work, to get Latinos to watch Latino films.
Let's use what we know about this audience. Latinos watch movies more than other ethnic groups and they are the fastest growing group of internet users. The moviegoers are young, speak English as a first language, and use social media. They also watch a lot of television, in English and Spanish. Recently, the Spanish-language network Univision has been beating out NBC in primetime ratings for the key demographic of adults aged 18-49 (mostly because Latinos love novelas.)
Independent Latino films can't spend a bunch of money on T.V. ads, print advertising, or make multiple copies to circulate in theaters. So, what's the magic formula? Maybe a small theatrical run (N.Y. and L.A.) for a weekend preceded by a big bilingual social media push and then followed by a V.O.D. release and online streaming. On demand screenings via Tugg might help build buzz too.
Obviously, it's all a gamble. Who knows if it will work but I truly believe that the failure to attract Latinos to watch these films is a marketing issue. Talk to Latinos in their language (maybe Spanglish) via media channels that they use (i.e. Facebook and Twitter) and give them the option to watch the film on a small screen as soon as they hear about it. It's worth a try!
P.S. If anyone wants to give me money to employ this distribution strategy, I gladly welcome it.

Great insight! That strategy won't work. Your strategy has missing pieces. Which means when not marketed correctly will create an additional loss. So then funding becomes even less likely in the future. Interesting point of view! Saludos

When Persepolis cleared $23m+ on a $7.3m budget, it wasnt because it was marketed as a Persian/French animated film. It was because it was a great film that got a great viral push. American Me, Stand and Deliver, Zoot Suit and La Bamba were great films. Bless Me Ultima, Go For It and I imagine Filly Brown cannot hold the weight of the craft. Sorry to say but Jenni Rivera is just not as accomplished an actor as Rosanna DeSoto. I'd pay real money to watch Rosanna act the phone book and unfortunately, I wouldnt pay any money to watch Jenni act in anything. Id argue that its not the fame of the actor but rather the talent of the cast and crew that makes a film work.

You guys have a talent for examining an issue and issuing solutions that seem obvious in retrospect. But I thought that these films from the 80's and 90's were legacies of identity politics that got their start in the sixties. I dont mean it as a bad thing, I would kill to see something that doesn't ply the same tired tropes like dozens of others. Could it be that the lack of explicitly Latin films is symptomatic of a climate where there is a sort of identity fatigue from the larger public? I mean, it seems after 9/11, we've been obsessed with showcasing our sameness. I'm probably completely wrong, but that's what it feels like.
Mauricio Alexander | April 25, 2013 12:24 PM
I LOVE this strategy and I will gladly give you Juan and/or Vanessa someone else's money (I personally don't have enough) to hire you to employ this strategy when I have a budget and backing for our first feature film (will seek feedback :) ). I hope you're not joking. I'm not.
I honestly don't have the kind of mind that enjoys thinking about how to 'get' people to go watch, listen and purchase what I write or produce whether it be music or film and television. Of course, this maybe why I'm poor and at the other end of a career compared to my colleagues currently 'making' it in Hollywood. However, I do know the difference between a great story and a great performance and a not so great story and not so great performance. And here is where it gets tricky. Deep inside all of us, I believe, we want to see ourselves and our fellow Latinos succeed tremendously, often regardless of whether the "product" is one of excellence or one that is not bad, but not amazing. After all we have experienced being marginalized for so long in a country where our heritage and our history rightly deserves to be honored and recognized. But, are we here in this country to succeed in selling record box office tickets or are we here in this country to succeed in making excellent films and storytelling? I don't think, for whatever reasons, they go hand in hand sometimes.
The large diaspora of Latino men and women originating from over 20 countries in the world, with different primary languages, different regional experiences, different music and film influences makes me realize that it isn't about telling the "LATINO" story that attracts Latinos. There are dozens of Latino stories that do not always bring us under one roof. In the past year, I watched our friends/colleagues blow-up on the scene and loved and supported "Gun Hill Road", "America", "Go For It" and "Filly Brown", and I'm proud of their accomplishments. But, I grew up with Mexican and U.S. citizenship in a low-income all African-American neighborhood in D.C. in the 80's raised by a Peruvian-born family, went to an all white Quaker school and got college degrees (aside from music and theatre) in Soviet/East-European history and politics. So, none of the films I mentioned speak to my story that much, even though they all star Latino talent and are important stories from Latino culture in the United States (with the exception of Filly B, as hip-hop music is a part of my culture). So, why do I like these movies? Not because my idols and mentors star in/produced or directed them, but because they mostly tell a universal story. And I think that IS VERY important to try to sell to the Latino audience. A story that anybody from anywhere can empathize with, can put themselves in the characters' shoes, can say, "wow, that could be me or my friends or my family". I think this element is a more valid reason to creating a Latino Blockbuster (and we all should keep raising bar), and not because it is Latino-made or Latino-produced and therefore we should all go out and support or because some marketing campaign told me that this is the coolest film ever. I don't want my son to go see a mediocre Latino made film because he feels obligated to or to say it was a good film because criticizing it is blasphemous... I want him to go see Latino made films because everyone, black, white, latino, asian or green knows that that producer or director or that writer, or those actors and that STORY is the real Ish. The internet IS a amazing place to prove the value of a film, and we should also be listening carefully to how the next generation consumes stories to understand what makes a 'Blockbuster' a Blockbuster.
I look forward to seeing us and our stories flood the US and world film markets online in a way that we don't have to beg or demand the people come watch, but instead the people gladly invite themselves to be a part of our experience.

In fact, the entire board is united behind President Carruthers. We believe that under his leadership New Mexico State University will expand upon the excellence of our richly diverse and academically strong institution.
Below are a few examples of why we are excited about the future.
As the state's land-grant university, we are uniquely positioned to enhance the well-being and quality of life for the people of our state. Our Cooperative Extension Service touches the lives of one in every three New Mexicans. Extension faculty address the challenges important to each community such as economic and community development, human nutrition, agriculture, environmental stewardship and family/child development. For many New Mexicans, the Cooperative Extension Service is an important part of their lives and we will continue to support their needs with practical, research-based knowledge and programs.
NMSU researchers are working hard to solve the most pressing challenges of our day and they have demonstrated strengths in a number of areas that are important to our state, nation and beyond. As we look at the severe drought conditions facing New Mexico and many areas of our country, NMSU faculty are examining the concerns and challenges surrounding the availability, quality and quantity of water. NMSU serves as headquarters for the statewide and federally supported (in part) New Mexico Water Resources Research Institute, which studies aquifer salinity, water availability, quality, sustainability, and water-related border and international issues. Given the importance of water research, NMSU established a master of science and doctor of philosophy in Water Science & Management. The new degree programs will help train the next generation of water resource teachers, scientists and managers.
We meet our public mission by providing our students with a top quality, high-value, affordable education. NMSU faculty are among the best in their respective fields. They give our students the tools they need to be successful in the 21st century work force and train students to use critical thinking skills to solve the problems facing society. Our students make us proud every day with their academic accomplishments and service in our communities.
When we began the presidential search process, our first step was to hold listening sessions to ask about the important qualifications you, our alumni and stakeholders, wanted in our president. This valuable feedback was used to guide our search and identify qualities in our new president. We believe President Carruthers provides an outstanding combination of the strengths you shared as necessary to advance our university. Now, we ask for you to join us in united support behind our new president. With your assistance, we can help our university shape the future for the benefit of all New Mexicans.
Mike Cheney is chairman and Javier Gonzales is vice chairman of the New Mexico State University Board of Regents.

Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
Week 4 Contest.
Give me your analysis and we'll give the best analysis this weeks' prize.
Re: Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
What went wrong?.....EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!
Re: Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
It's a sad testiment to the state of the Viking's Offense that it took us over 12 QUARTERS of play to score an Offensive touchdown.
That's 3 complete games!!!
With starting field position near midfield on 3 seperate occassions, the Vikings were - once again - unable to put drives together.
Defensively, with Fred Smoot now playing EVERY receiver like they're Steve Smith just waiting to torture him, the sure-fire completion seems to be, "Throw Left".
Buffalo tortured our secondary all game long...even on improbable plays.
Up front, the Vikings played well, but not well enough to stop J.P. Lossman from making them look bad on far too many plays.
McGahee didn't rack up big yardage on us, but the threat of him doing so seemed to make our coverage slip.
Brad Johnson uncharacteristicly looked fairly sad today, throwing 2 INT's (Only 1 of which I lay at his feet).
Troy Williamson dropped balls - again - and caused us to halt in our tracks.
Robinson dropped one he should have had, but he still looks better than Troy.
Play calling didn't get aggressive until the end of the game - the only time the Vikings moved the ball except the opening drive.
Why isn't Childress opening up earlier?
Teams now expect us to play hyperconservative, and it shows by how often we went 3-n-out.
Childress needs to step up the tempo of this O-Unit and force Defenses to play a little more off balance.
Penalties, penalties, penalties.
Do we LIKE shooting ourselves in the foot?
Several penalties late in the game might have wound up costing us the game.
The false start during the 2 pt conversion and the Udeze encroachment call - we lost time and points on those, both of which we needed more of.
All in all, my initial reaction is to say that we are in trouble.
Sure, we're 2-2, but we could have been 4-0 right now.
We beat ourselves in both contests by playing too conservatively, commiting stupid penalties, and blowing critical coverages.
Maybe it would be better to say that we could be 0-4 right now, but I don't honestly think we played above ourselves in the 1st two contests...I think we played beneath ourselves in the last two.
It's going to take me at LEAST 24 hours to cool off an look at this game objectively, but right now I'm disgusted.
And, quite frankly, I'm concerned about our ability to win.
Re: Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
What went right: Absolutely Nothing...
What went wrong: Everything..
What was unexpected: Our defense playing like sh!t behind of course the one and only Fred Smoot...
Need I say anything more?
Re: Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
Two positives I saw
Greg Blue had a smokin hit
Vikes scored a touchdown
Team looked like they didn't practise last week, penalties, offense sputtered, missed tackles.
Poor overall game
Re: Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
What went wrong:
The first 3.5 Quarters of the game. Sad stuff to watch. Almost unbearable.
What went right. The last 4 minutes of the game or so other than the last brad pass were actually pretty good. Had we had our head on straight the entire game like that, we would have crushed them handily.
Unexpected?: That the loss of Ben Leber would mean so much to our team.
Re: Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
Woulda coulda shoulda...
Man...where do I start? I feel sick to my stomach.
First off, Smoot is a joke. Simply horrid. Secondly, ol' alligator arms Williamson is really driving me nuts. This is the second game where catchable passes dropped right between his arms. Sickening. He's paid to catch the gol 'darnit ball. Catch it! I'm having a hard time justifying his dropped passes anymore. He simply doesn't have good hands.
All in all, the entire team played a sloppy game. Longwell was the only one who didn't make any real mistakes. Even Kluwe was hot and cold.
On a positive note, we were still in this game right to the end. Even though he did have a couple of obvious bad passes, Brad didn't let it get into his head and he played like the veteran leader he is until time sadly ran out. Yeah, he should have went deep and just thrown it out to stop the clock, but you do have to put the ball in a playmakers hands to make plays. Unfortunately no one could make a play after the catch. But, when it comes to these close games, live by the sword, die by the sword and we've died the last two games. It's the nature of the beast.
We need to tighten up our play and make less stupid mistakes on both ends of the ball. Our defense needs to tackle better. We should have ran it more in the first half of the game. We gave up on the run too easily. I also think we need to get the ball to Mewelde Moore more often on offense. He does have the ability to be a playmaker when healthy.
Man, I could go on and on...but, I think it's best if i just let this loss sink in for a couple days and move on to our next game.
In the meantime, go Seahawks! and go Bengals! and go Eagles!!! At least I still have something to root for this weekend ( or at least teams to root against)...Even babies know the difference.

Poor overall game
That Greg Blue hit was awesome... I really think Brad Childress should consider starting either Cedric Griffin or Roynell Whitaker in Smoot's place next week.. If either of those guys can step up, I think the Vikes are better off releasing Smoot.. He is over paid, and over hyped.. He flat out sucks..
Re: Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
Childress gives up on the run way too easily... The whole team needs to go back to tackling 101... Smoot is garbage... Williamson has too many drops but this is his first year starting and you cant expect a 'rookie' to be perfect... Penalties have been brutal... Marcus Johnson has been pretty disappointing lately
Re: Bills Game: What went right, wrong, and was unexpected?
Yeah, Fred Smoot had another bad game.
When he played for the Redskins, they always had a very good pash rush, and that always makes it easier on your secondary. The Vikings have an ok pass rush, but it's not what Smoot was used to in Washington.
Fred Smoot had 16 interceptions in just 4 seasons while he played for the Redskins. And that's why he's seen as a good cover cornerback, but he's been exposed since he signed his contract with the Minnesota Vikings.
In the P.J.'s, my blend tape plays, bullets are strays
Young bitches is grazed
Each block, is like a maze, full of black rats trapped
Plus the Island is packed
From what I hear in all the stories when my peoples come back, black

Oh, the irony. The DukeBasketballReport.com website has posted the following jovial blog entry about Dalonte Hill:
Duke Basketball Report has generally been one of the top-notch fan sites for college basketball. It comes with the typical swarmy and arrogant Duke attitude that we have come to know and abhor. But, it is still highly informative, well-written and occasionally insightful. It usually pokes fun at other team's misfortunes when appropriate.
However, their cavalier attitude about Dalonte Hill's very serious problems is classless and callous. They use this situation as an opportunity to poke fun at Dalonte Hill and Maryland. Also, it implies that Dalonte Hill's much-needed rehab is no more serious than a rehab stint by Lindsay Lohan. To the contrary, this is a very serious issue in which MD is correct to continue to support Dalonte Hill. MD has offered financial support by continuing to employ him even though he is most likely finished as a coach at MD.
The irony, of course, is how Duke takes pride in conducting themselves with the utmost propriety and class to the point where they seem to take themselves too seriously. DBR has used this very serious situation as an opportunity for a punchline like some two-bit comedian. Meanwhile, the MD administration is showing true class and empathy by supporting Dalonte Hill even though Dalonte will most likely never coach for MD again.

Whisenhunt must keep Cardinals in title hunt
While Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt is in no danger of losing his job any time soon, we hear he could be if the Cardinals don't at least seriously contend for the NFC West title in 2011.
Draft countdown: Pick No. 5
PFW looks back at the last 10 players chosen with the fifth pick in the NFL draft, including LaDainian Tomlinson by the Chargers in 2001.
Draft Dose: Who needs an outside linebacker?
In the 30th installment of the Draft Dose series, PFW takes a look at 10 teams in need of an outside linebacker like Texas A&M's Von Miller.
Draft Dose: Who needs an inside linebacker?
In the 29th installment of the Draft Dose series, PFW looks at five teams that are in need of an inside linebacker, with Illinois' Martez Wilson a top option.
Fitzgerald shows commitment to Cardinals
Although WR Larry Fitzgerald is no lock to remain in Arizona after the 2011 season, he showed his commitment to the Cardinals for the time being by organizing voluntary workouts for his teammates.
Fitzgerald organizes workouts for Cardinals
Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald has organized informal workouts with 20 of his teammates on Tuesday at an Arizona State practice field, according to PFW correspondent and Arizona Republic writer Kent Somers.
Draft Dose: Who needs an interior lineman?
In the 26th installment of the Draft Dose series, PFW takes a look at six teams that could consider drafting an interior lineman, like Florida's Mike Pouncey.
Cardinals' WR situation looks rather shaky
We hear it's far from a given that Larry Fitzgerald, Steve Breaston and Early Doucet, in that order, will enter next season as the Cardinals' top three receivers.
Draft Dose: Who needs a tight end?
What teams in this year's draft could be in the market for a tight end like Notre Dame's Kyle Rudolph? The Broncos are one team that figures to be on the lookout after releasing veteran TE Daniel Graham.
Bidwills, Whisenhunt see Gabbert in private workout
Cardinals president Michael Bidwill, owner Bill Bidwill and head coach Ken Whisenhunt were among team officials to see Missouri QB Blaine Gabbert in a private workout on Wednesday.
Under siege under center
Adding to the uncertainty due to the current lockout are the undeniably shaky QB situations facing one-third of the league's teams, including the 49ers and holdover starter Alex Smith.
NFC team needs
The Vikings are looking for a successor to QB Brett Favre, as PFW identifies the top three draft needs of each NFC team.
Cardinals latest team to reduce pay for employees
The coaches and front-office employees of the Cardinals will see a large slice of their paychecks taken out due to the league's labor situation.
Playing hurt might have hindered Cardinals S Wilson in 2010
A torn abductor muscle might have been at least partially responsible for what daily Cardinals observers considered probably the worst season of veteran SS Adrian Wilson's career.
Cardinals cut ticket prices
As disputes over a new Collective Bargaining Agreement continue, one NFL team has announced that it will cut ticket prices for next season.
Campbell is back for the Cards' defense.||||||| Campbell was sidelined for last Sunday's game against the Jets due to a calf injury.
Campbell is sidelined for Sunday's game against the Jets due to a calf injury.||||||| Campbell has now missed three straight games.
Campbell says he is relieved that the long-term contract he and the team had sought has been completed and he hopes he "can be a great player in this league for a lot of years to come." The defensive end spoke at a news conference Friday, one day after negotiations were completed on a five-year contract extension reportedly worth $55 million with $31 million guaranteed.||||||| The Cardinals had played the "non-exclusive" franchise tag on Campbell while continuing to negotiate a long-term contract. Removal of that tag should clear the way for the Cardinals to add a player or two to their roster under the salary cap.
Campbell agreed to a five-contract extension Thursday with Arizona. Terms of the deal weren't disclosed.||||||| The 6-foot-8, 300-pound lineman had 51 solo tackles and 73 overall tackles last season. He also had eight sacks, two forced fumbles, 11 passes defensed, one fumble recovery, his first interception, and blocked three field goals.
The Arizona Cardinals have placed a non-exclusive franchise tag on Campbell.||||||| The Cardinals can continue to negotiate a long-term deal with the 6-foot-8, 300-pound player through July 16. If another team signs him to an offer sheet, Arizona has the right to match it or receive two first-round draft picks as compensation.

It's paramedic Pat Stewart's first day back to work in Essex after volunteering in storm-torn New York and New Jersey.
"We were deployed for about seven days total," he says.
Essex Rescue has a government contract with FEMA and offers aid when they can during natural disasters. Pat and his partner, Greg Wolf, were initially dispatched to an air force base in New Jersey but were rerouted when Superstorm Sandy hit New York City.
"What a drive that was," he says.
The team recorded cell phone video of their treacherous drive to Manhattan.
"It's not everyday you see New York City black," they said.
The team was headed to New York University. The hospital there lost power and hundreds of patients needed to be evacuated. The Essex crew helped the city's responders and ambulance teams from around the county get everyone out safely.
"It was just an amazing sight to see everything working so well together and flawlessly," Stewart says.
In the days that followed, the Essex paramedics joined 300 other rescue crews at a staging area in Brooklyn. They took turns evacuating more patients, this time from Bellevue Hospital.
"It's great for us to come down there and provide that kind of care for that we don't even know," Stewart says.
During the entire deployment, they would unroll sleeping bags and catch a few hours of sleep where they could.
"I'm very proud of the work they're doing," says Essex Rescue Executive Director Dan Manz. "In a big disaster no states got enough resources to be able to mount the response."
Manz is big believer in mutual aid, as long as service to his own coverage area isn't compromised.
"It means people work a little harder around here," Manz says. "Folks are pulling a lot of extra hours but everybody here is pitching in as part of supporting our deployment to New York."
"We brought together a piece of the puzzle," Stewart says.
A new team has relieved Pat and his partner. Essex Rescue will continue their storm relief rotation until mid November.

CAP Server Online for EAS
Washington - Nov 28, 2011 - Radio magazine found that FEMA has released the information necessary to allow CAP compatible EAS equipment to poll the IPAWS-OPEN system. As equipment manufacturers update and release firmware for their systems, stations will be able to enter a URL (https://apps.fema.gov/) into their encoder/decoders. Stations should check with manufacturer of their EAS units to determine if their units are capable of capturing the CAP data. Radio magazine is told many units are already capable of receiving the CAP data.
While the server is live, sources tell Radio magazine that no data has yet been posted there.

A Dakota College at Bottineau athlete was killed in a drive-by shooting in his native Chicago this week.
19-year-old Dashamone, or DeShaun,
McCarty was riding in the back seat of a car with friends on Wednesday when their car was sprayed with bullets.
McCarty died of his wounds yesterday.
McCarty was a three-sport standout athlete at his Chicago-area high school and came to Bottineau to play football and basketball for the Lumberjacks.
His best friend from high school said DeShaun was a giving person.
(Ryan Jones, McCarty's High School Friend) "He was a great person, if he had a dollar he'd share it with you - he was just a caring person. It was about sports and being successful and that's what he was doing, just wrong place, wrong time."
(Dr. Ken Grosz, Dakota College at Bottineau President) "He was perhaps the hardest worker on the basketball team. He was respected and looked up to by his teammates. He was kind of the guy they needed to calm them down in intense moments and the kind of guy who would get them fired up when they needed firing up. So he was really a team leader."
There have been no arrests in the shooting case in the Chicago suburb of Maywood.

A brain cancer therapy at the University of Minnesota that worked on dogs is now being tested on people. It's still experimental, but the lead researcher, Dr. Christ Moertel, says the results are encouraging.
"What we've learned so far is that it's been safe in all the people we've treated. We started at a low dose, and we've worked out way up to maximum dose of the vaccine." "We were very worried that exposing people to these brain tumors stem cell antigen might cause them to have an immune response against their normal brain cells or against other parts of their body, and we've seen no evidence of that what so ever."
A mutt they call Batman has received a vaccine made from his own purified tumor cells. That vaccine trained his own immune system to attack its own tumor. Batman recovered from the brain cancer last year, but recently died from a heart condition.
Researchers pushed on and are now testing the vaccine on humans. It is being tested on seven patients from all over the nation. Moertel says it's too early to confirm if the therapy is safe, but says things are looking good. The cancer isn't gone, but with the vaccine, it hasn't grown either.
Moertel says the vaccine has the potential to be an alternative to chemotherapy and radiation. However, there's still no timeline as to when it might be available to the public.

Lions Rally in Closing Seconds to Beat Marymount 46-45
1/21/2013 — ALTOONA, Pa. - Penn State Altoona senior Matt Gehret (Altoona, PA/Altoona) is used to dealing with high pressure situations late in ballgames to pull out a win for his team. As the closer on the baseball team, he is asked to maintain a lead in the final inning to clinch a victory. On Monday night, he used the same mentality to win the game for the men's basketball team, stepping to the free throw line with three seconds left and sinking the game-winning foul shots in the Lions' thrilling 46-45 comeback win over Marymount University.

text: Slippery When Wet made them superstars. New Jersey established them as a great rock band, but Keep The Faith just proves that Bon Jovi is not just another band from the 80's. There are the trademark Bon Jovi songs with the catchy chorus and guitar riffs, but it's the songs that are different to Bon Jovi fans that makes this album work. The opening track I Believe is a solid rock that grabs your attention and it is followed by the title track which is a departure from anything on the New Jersey album. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead is a typical Bon Jovi sing-a-along that's fun to listen to and In These Arms is a cool rock ballad for the ladies, but it was Bed Of Roses that got all of the women to cry. It was also the biggest hit off of the album. The best track would have to be Dry County. Jon Bon Jovi is at his best vocally and Richie Sambora pulls off an excellent guitar riff that will blow your socks offf. The most underrated song would have to be Fear. This song definitely stands out on this album compared to the other songs. To give you my honest opinion, this is Bon Jovi's best album and I am a huge Bon Jovi fan. The songs are more solid and put together than any other Bon Jovi tune. This album also proves than Bon Jovi can be taken seriously as artists and not just another 80's rock band lying by the waste side.
