Martha Schwartz to take on Spaghetti Junction
International landscape architect Martha Schwartz is heading a top secret project to revamp the notorious Spaghetti Junction in the West Midlands.The Boston-based designer has been approached by Birmingham City Council to head up the transformation of the infamous motorway intersection. It is understood that the council wants the junction - officially known as the Gravelly Hill Interchange - to become a landmark gateway for Birmingham. However, details of the scheme remain firmly under wraps because of Living Landmarks Lottery Fund rules which prevent publication of potential projects. The council hopes to receive a substantial grant from the lottery to fund the proposed overhaul of the junction, which was opened in 1972. The convergence of the M6 motorway and A38(M) Aston Expressway, the junction spans the rivers Tame and Rea and a number of key railway lines. by Richard Waite

SXSW: Band of Horses, No Age, Washed Out, Active Child, Freddie Gibbs
Plus the Golden Filter, Talk Normal
By Tom Breihan on March 20, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. EDT
Photos by Tom Breihan; Above: Band of Horses
Tom Breihan's SXSW Reports: Wed | Thu | Fri | Sat
Ryan Dombal's SXSW Reports: Wed | Thu | Fri | Sat
Amy Phillips' SXSW Reports: Wed | Thu | Fri |Sat
Band of Horses [Central Presbyterian Church; 8:55 p.m.]
Taking the stage (or really, the alter), Band of Horses frontman Ben Bridwell said, "Feel free to yell stuff at us. Just don't cuss." This was, after all, a church, which is a pretty weird place for a Band of Horses show, even when the building in question has the rich SXSW history that this one does. Unlike, say, Grizzly Bear, who sounded gorgeous at the same venue last year, Band of Horses don't make luminous music. It's pretty, certainly, but also earthy and plainspoken and way more suited to gigantic muddy fields than houses of worship. An odd fit, then, but there's no complaining about a great venue being matched up with a great band.
At this show, Band of Horses previewed songs from Infinite Arms, their forthcoming album. Based on those, we shouldn't expect any grand stylistic left-turns. A few tracks inch a little further toward old-school country and Southern rock without ever committing to either. On one, Ryan Monroe sings lead, which gives us a chance to hear Bridwell's voice singing backing harmonies, a nice little bonus. It's hard to say on first listen, but few of the new songs seemed to carry the same grandeur as something like "The Funeral", but then, this band always benefits from road-trip repeat listens, so immediate judgment is probably a bad idea. And they still played "The Funeral", so everybody won. And it was just a treat to see a band this big, and this destined to get bigger, playing in a small room with an audience so rapturous that they applauded even when Bridwell thanked his management. People are on this band's side, and with good reason.
No Age [Red 7 Patio; 12:30 a.m.]
The No Age we've come to expect from countless DIY tours isn't the one who showed up to Red 7. For one thing, they've got a third guy onstage, twiddling knobs and tweaking samplers in ways that rarely had any identifiable effect on the band's sound. For another, they seemed a lot less animated; guitarist Randy Randall, once a livewire, now rocks a beard and prowls a tiny sector of the stage. And the new songs we heard didn't carry much of the melodic sweetness that the band's always been able to weave into its fuzzed-out firestorm. Instead, they'd build quickly from ambient hum to basement-show pummel, and the drama was all in the transitions. I had to leave their set early, but the new songs I heard all sounded pretty great. If they keep playing relatively low-key and simmering shows like that, though, some people will miss the old abandon.
Washed Out [Klub Krucial; 1:00 a.m.]
When I interviewed him last year, Washed Out mastermind Ernest Greene said he had no plans to turn his bedroom recording project into a live concern, but he looked pretty content onstage at the cavernous Klub Krucial. For one thing, he had a seriously crammed-in mass of crowd completely behind him. Down front, it was so hot and packed that I could barely move, but people were still dancing hard. (Somebody crowdsurfed. To chillwave.) For another, Greene didn't have any tape hiss or synth-smear obscuring his hooks or his beats, so the songs actually sounded like dance jams, and they worked just fine as such. Onstage, Greene doesn't do anything much performative beyond dancing around while he pushes sequencer buttons, but those tracks, and that crowd reaction, proved that he belonged up there.
Greene started out the show himself, manning his electronics and sighing into his mic. Particularly on Klub Krucial's comically loud sound system, these tracks kicked pretty hard. Things changed a bit when tourmates Small Black joined Greene as his backing band halfway through. The band's instrumentation fleshed out the songs in important ways. But members of Small Black also sang along with Greene and did it exceptionally badly, turning his wistful bedroom jams into off-key bro-down singalongs.
Freddie Gibbs [Mohawk Patio; 10:50 p.m.]
Not too many new rappers have the confidence to attack stages without hypemen, and even fewer do it with the force and panache of Gary, Ind., gangsta revivalist Freddie Gibbs. In every fundamental way, Gibbs is a hell of a rapper: lyrics, hooks, timing, delivery, enunciation, volume. He has no weaknesses. You can understand every word he says from across the room at an industry party where nobody will shut up and listen to the music. He never stands still onstage and punches every line hard. And a few songs, like "What It B Like" and "Cradle 2 the Grave", sounded like huge bangers, though not necessarily actual hits. His beats carried a visceral punch, and he kept his brisk 20-minute set moving without lag time. Someone give him some more time next year. He's earned it.
Active Child [Latitude 30; 10:00 p.m.]
Active Child is Pat Grossi, a former choir singer who now makes hushed and otherworldly falsetto synthpop. His music and this venue were not, shall we say, an ideal match. It's hard to emit ethereal wails when the crowd won't stop talking. But Grossi, who looks a bit green onstage, makes it work anyway, just by playing music so overwhelmingly pretty that it absorbs whatever's around it. Grossi switches among keyboard, harp, and guitar while a bassist plays spacey new wave bass riffs. Grossi is definitely a bedroom guy, but the basic elements of a possible greatness are all there.
The Golden Filter [Emo's Jr.; 8:00 p.m.]
The Golden Filter frontwoman Penelope comes bearing at least a few pounds of ornamentation: bracelets, necklaces, scarves, kohl. But there's nothing particularly gussied-up about the band's glassy Italo-disco style. People have been pairing metronomic synth-burbles with breathy vocals for a long time. But the Golden Filter also have a live drummer and a keyboard player who bashes floor toms whenever he's not playing keyboards, giving a little muscle to the band's relatively bloodless arrangements. I'll always carry at least a tiny soft spot for anyone working that genre confluence in this day and age, but the group's hooks evaporate too quickly, and it's not like they're doing anything to dress that old Italo thump up in anything more memorable.
Talk Normal [Red 7; 12:00 a.m.]
I'd been hoping to catch guttural goth queen Zola Jesus, but it turned out Nika Danilova's band was playing way the hell out by the airport. So instead I saw this Brooklyn duo, who played incredibly loudly in near-complete darkness at Red 7. Their combination of sculpted, bottom-heavy noise and tribal drumming sounded ritualistic, almost elemental. But where Zola Jesus or even their NY noise contemporaries Magik Markers let in some melodic throb and try a few theatrical flourishes, these two were nothing but creeping dread all the time. They did that dread awfully well, but it's good that they only played for about a half-hour; I don't know if I could've withstood much more.

Nicola Adams won the first medal achieved by a female boxer at the Olympics and - like her - it was bright, beautiful and golden.
As if her indelible mark in the ring-dust of time were not enough, Adams will for ever signpost the path to glory for the generations of girls brave enough to dare follow her into the toughest arena in sport.

Jumping for joy: Adams was all smiles after her stunning victory in the flyweight final
That's mine: Adams shows off her medal on the podium after her comprehensive victory
Proud on top: Adams stands on the podium after easing to her triumph on home soil
Down and out: Ren Cancan was sent to the canvas by the unstoppable Adams
Royal approval: The Duchess of Cambridge watched the bout as Adams triumphed
Our Nicola did not so much make a statement yesterday afternoon as a command, defying the doubters to refuse a place in the permanent pantheon of the Games to women's boxing.
She did so with a performance against a world champion which was not only stupendous but which in terms of both Olympic and social significance surpasses even the poster-girl brilliance of Jessica Ennis.
At 28, with so little funding that she was financially dependent on her modest family and coming up to her third month confined to bed with a back injury, Adams was on the brink of giving up on her dream.
The sudden admission of her sport to London 2012 saved her, not only for herself but the country. But when the ultimate reward came in the Thames Docklands it changed her not one iota.
Where the lovely and loveable Jess has been nightclubbing with the capital's A-list celebrities, the admirable and adorable Nicky had this to say when asked how she would celebrate last night: 'I'm going out with the old man and the family to … Nando's.'
Bless her.
Above all rejoice with her in the triumph of the daughter of a humble immigrant family who has reached up to touch the stars and in so doing has shown millions like her that nothing is impossible if you have the heart of a lioness and the stomach for hard work.
Confidence: Adams was all smiles as she walked to the ring in front of the home fans
Easy street: Nicola Adams proved too strong for China's Ren Cancan at the ExCel
If there has been anything more uplifting in these two weeks of endeavour thus far then you will have to show me again on the video.
Yet there were no mawkish tears, no maudlin collapses. Just delight unconfined, exuberance held in modest restraint by satisfaction with a job supremely well done.That smile never seemed to stop shining, not even during the four rounds of hand-to-hand combat.
From the first bell of this, the first female final, Adams was too quick, too sharp, too brim-full of belief for China's hitherto omnipotent Ren Cancan. Her non-stop aggression was a nightmare for her opponent and the points piled up in the British corner as Ren was knocked down in a heap by a clinically executed left-right combination in the second round.
'I didn't see that coming,' grinned Adams. 'I was just thinking about becoming Olympic champion.' By then, so were we all and the final tally of 16-7 could have been wider.Ren got up to take the eight count and fought on but Adams certainly canned Cancan. So dominant was Adams that in the last seconds before the final bell she indulged in an Ali Shuffle.
'They'll have to call it the Nicky Shuffle now,' she joked, laughing now. That was one crowning moment. Then came another.
Take that: Adams was simply too strong for her opponent at the ExCel on Thursday
Feel the force: Cancan had no answer to the power from Adams
Packing a punch: Adams was delighted after making history at the Olympics
Happiness came to this girl with a ribbon around her neck: 'It's a dream come true. I have wanted this all my life and I've got it. It was an amazing feeling to step on the podium and taking the medal home to Leeds will be special.' To Yorkshire, where yet another postbox will soon be painted gold.
In fact, it was two jobs done to perfection within 24 hours, both different and cleverly so. Adams had met the swarming attacks of Indian icon Mary Kom in the semi-final a day earlier by boxing stylishly, keeping her at bay with a strict jab and picking her off with accurate counter-punches.
Ren was different, an elegant lady who likes to be unhurried. So Adams overwhelmed her with a furious and sustained assault from all angles. This remarkable, adaptable command of such a variety of boxing skills even asked questions of the status of the girl who followed her into the ring as the best female boxer in the world.
There can be advantages in being the smallest. As a flyweight Adams had the honour of winning the first women's medal. She was cheered to the rafters but the Irish had taken over a majority of the 10,000 seats and when their beloved Katie Taylor came in they again challenged the Games decibel level of 113 set the night their lightweight girl met Liverpool's Natasha Jonas in one helluva fight.
Come the golden hour, Taylor was made to struggle for her 10-8 win by the technically adept Russian Sofia Ochigava. She got there by changing her own style to that of a counter-puncher in the last two rounds and the great Barry McGuigan took the microphone to officially launch the hoolie for Ireland's first gold medal at these Games. But while Taylor is generally recognised as No 1 among her species, Adams stole that from her. Maybe for one night only, perhaps for a while now that the silver bridesmaid at two World Championships has acquired a taste for dressing in gold.
There were smiles, too, from Clarissa Shields as she spared the blushes of the first US men's boxing team ever to go home without a medal by winning gold at middleweight.
But ladies night in the East End belonged to a working-class English girl who dared to dream.

X-Men: First Class: "Charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga, and reveals a secret history of famous global events. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop Armageddon. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-Men."

Originally written on Baseball Prospectus | Last updated 11/17/14
The Monday Takeaway When the Marlins embarked on their nine-game road trip to San Francisco, San Diego, and Houston, manager Ozzie Guillen's team was a disappointing 7-15. Seven games in, Miami has improved to 14-15, going from an early afterthought to within 3 ½ games of the division-leading Nationals. Here are the Marlins' runs allowed totals during this road trip: 1, 2, 2, 8, 1, 3, 0. That's 17 combined runs allowed over seven games (an average of 2.43 per game) and, if you toss out the outlier—Friday's wild, 12-inning win over the Padres—nine combined runs allowed in the other six games. Carlos Zambrano has been responsible for 16 scoreless innings since the team left Miami, and he tossed a three-hitter in Houston last night, his first complete-game shutout since September 25, 2009. A low-risk gamble by Larry Beinfest amid the Marlins' big-ticket signings this winter, Zambrano has delivered five quality starts in six tries, and his 32-to-14 K/BB ratio suggests that the im...

Shining a Light
Oceanographers, water-quality experts and satellite remote-sensing scientists from around the world will shine light on developments in ocean optics and their application to environmental issues at a conference Oct. 25–31 in Portland, Maine.
Mary Jane Perry, interim director of the University of Maine Darling Marine Center in Walpole, is co-chair of the conference, Ocean Optics XXII, being held at Holiday Inn by the Bay.
"The conference gives optical ocean scientists from all over the world an opportunity to meet every two years to share ideas and exchange techniques," says Perry. "Such communication among professionals and students is key to advancing science and developing new ways to use optics to solve ocean problems."
Conference co-chair Steven Ackleson, oceanographer at the United States Naval Research Laboratory in Washington D.C., agrees.
"Optical observations of oceans on Earth are imperative," he says. Many core environmental issues related to climate change — the carbon budget, harmful algal blooms, environmental-based management and human health and recreation — "require knowledge of how light interacts with the marine environment, the ability to monitor conditions in near real time and the capability to predict future conditions."
Attendees from 38 countries can attend eight plenary sessions, including one led by Don Perovich of Thayer School of Engineering in Hanover, New Hampshire, who will discuss "Sunlight and Sea Ice in a Changing Arctic."
There also will be nearly 50 shorter discussions and more than 200 posters presented on a variety of topics involving ocean optics.
UMaine researchers and graduate students are well represented. Perry, UMaine marine scientist Ivona Cetinic, and UMaine graduate Wayne Slade are reporting on their work this past summer in the Gulf of Maine that combined ship, aircraft and satellite measurements to monitor phytoplankton species. They also will report on another summer field project that used robots to study the distribution of phytoplankton under the ice in the Arctic Ocean.
UMaine professors Emmanuel Boss and Fei Chai, and graduate students Nathan Briggs and Alison Chase are also among the conference presenters.
In addition to the scientific presentations, author Robert McKenna will give a talk titled "Smuggling at Sea During Prohibition: The Real McCoy, the Bootleg Queen, Rum Row and the Origin of the U.S. Coast Guard."

Extreme Living
In the southern Peruvian Andes, an archaeological team led by researchers at the University of Maine has documented the highest altitude ice age human occupation anywhere in the world — nearly 4,500 meters above sea level (masl).
Their discoveries date high-altitude human habitation nearly a millennium earlier than previously documented.
Despite cold temperatures, high solar radiation and low oxygen conditions at that altitude, hunter-gatherers colonized the remote, treeless landscapes about 12,000 years ago during the terminal Pleistocene — within 2,000 years after humans arrived in South America.
"Study of human adaptation to extreme environments is important in understanding our cultural and genetic capacity for survival," according to the research team, led by Kurt Rademaker, a University of Maine visiting assistant professor in anthropology, writing in the journal Science.
The Pucuncho archaeological site, 4,355 masl, included 260 formal tools, such as projectile points, nondiagnostic bifaces and unifacial scrapers up to 12,800 years old. Cuncaicha rockshelter, featuring two alcoves at 4,480 masl, contains a "robust, well-preserved and well-dated occupation sequence" up to 12,400 years old. The rockshelter, with views of wetland and grassland habitats, features sooted ceilings and rock art, and was likely a base camp.
Most of the lithic tools at Cuncaicha were made from locally available obsidian, andesite and jasper, and are indicative of hunting and butchering consistent with limited subsistence options on the plateau, according to the researchers. In addition to plant remains, bones at the site indicate hunting of vicuña and guanaco camelids and the taruca deer.
Pucuncho Basin was a high-altitude oasis for specialized hunting, particularly of vicuña, and later, herding of domesticated alpacas and llamas. While the Pucuncho Basin could have sustained year-round residence, wet-season storms and the dangers of hypothermia, as well as the need to maintain extended social networks and collection of edible plants, may have encouraged regular descents, according to the research team.
In addition, the lithic tools and debitage included nonlocal, fine-grained rocks — some stream-polished. That would have required the plateau residents to visit high-energy rivers in the lower elevations.
It is unclear whether the high-altitude human settlement required genetic or environmental adaptations. But with evidence of high-altitude human habitation almost 900 years earlier than previously documented, the implication is that there may have been more moderate late-glacial Andean environments and greater physiological capabilities for Pleistocene humans.
"The Pucuncho Basin sites suggest that Pleistocene humans lived successfully at extreme high altitude, initiating organismal selection, developmental functional adaptations and lasting biogeographic expansion in the Andes," write the researchers. "As new studies identify potential genetic signatures of high-altitude adaptation in modern Andean populations, comparative genomic, physiologic and archaeological research will be needed to understand when and how these adaptations evolved."
In addition to Rademaker, who received his Ph.D. from UMaine in 2012 and is now a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Tübingen, the research team members are: Gregory Hodgins, University of Arizona; Katherine Moore, University of Pennsylvania; Sonia Zarrillo, University of Calgary; Christopher Miller, University of Tübingen; Peter Leach, University of Connecticut; David Reid, University of Illinois-Chicago; Willy Yépez Álvarez, Peru; and Gordon Bromley and Daniel Sandweiss, University of Maine.
The team's research was supported by the Dan and Betty Churchill Exploration Fund at the University of Maine, the National Geographic Society/Waitt Grants Program, and the National Science Foundation.

Wu's Research Featured in Wild Blueberry Association of North America Blog
Vivian Chi-Hua Wu, professor of food science and human nutrition at the University of Maine, is featured in a blog "Wild Blueberries Making a Name for Themselves in China" on the Wild Blueberry Association of North America website.
Wu, who grew up in Taiwan, says she enjoys introducing people in China to the health benefits of wild blueberries, and since 2009, she has worked with the Wild Blueberry Association of North America to do promotional tours in China and introduce chefs and foodservice buyers there to wild blueberries.
Wu has researched antimicrobial properties of wild blueberries and how wild blueberries maintain gut health. Her recent research, which she anticipates will be published soon, indicates phytochemicals in wild blueberries can fight Norovirus. The contagious virus causes a person's stomach and/or intestines to become inflamed. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Norovirus leads to the hospitalization of as many as 70,000 people annually in the United States and causes the death of approximately 800.
Lobster Institute Data Cited in USA Today Report
USA Today cited statistics from the Lobster Institute at the University of Maine for a report about a fisherman who caught the same rare calico lobster twice. Lobster Institute oceanographers estimate the odds of finding a calico lobster at 1 in 30 million, the same as for a solid yellow lobster, the report states.
Blackstone Accelerates Growth Mentioned in Press Herald Article on Tech Innovator Conference
Blackstone Accelerates Growth (BxG) was mentioned in a Portland Press Herald article about a group of 10 Maine entrepreneurs and community organizers who will attend the PopTech innovation conference in Camden. The annual event is held to gather an elite group of innovators and entrepreneurs from around the world to discuss the impact that technology has on society and how it can be used to solve the world's most pressing problems, according to the article. This year, a group of Mainers selected by BxG will attend to direct energy and expertise toward solving some of Maine's social and economic challenges, the article states. BxG is committed to building a community of entrepreneurs and innovators throughout Maine by providing advisory services, investment funds, entrepreneurial coaching and support through partnerships with the University of Maine, Maine Technology Institute and Maine Center for Entrepreneurial Development (MCED).
Brewer Quoted in MPBN Report on BDN Cutler Endorsement
Mark Brewer, a political science professor at the University of Maine, was quoted in a Maine Public Broadcasting Network report on independent gubernatorial candidate Eliot Cutler winning the endorsement of the Bangor Daily News. Brewer spoke about the importance of newspaper endorsements today. "I think that newspaper endorsements do still matter — maybe not to all voters, but I think particularly for voters who may be undecided in a particular race or on a particular ballot question," he said.

Dr. Jeffrey Hecker Appointed to Fill Ongoing Position as Provost
University of Maine President Susan Hunter has appointed Dr. Jeffrey Hecker to fill the position of Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost on an ongoing basis.
Last August, Hecker was appointed to the position for a two-year term.
The ongoing appointment culminates an internal search conducted over the past several weeks to evaluate candidate materials and provide opportunities for the UMaine community to participate in this search. Following a daylong interview Sept. 26 and after evaluating feedback from members of the UMaine community, the search committee recommended Dr. Hecker's appointment to President Hunter.
"Dr. Hecker is an outstanding candidate, and is poised to lead UMaine in a capable and thoughtful manner," said President Hunter. "Dr. Hecker has had demonstrated success in working to achieve UMaine's tripartite mission not only as Provost during the past academic year, but as Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and as a faculty member in the Department of Psychology. He has an outstanding record of achievement in his academic discipline, as well as in all administrative positions he has held.
"Dr. Hecker is highly regarded by this community and by all of UMaine's constituencies. He will continue to work diligently and lead UMaine in fulfilling its student centered-mission as well as ensure that UMaine remains a top-100 research university. I am delighted to continue working with him in his capacity as Provost," President Hunter said.
Hecker received his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from UMaine in 1986 after earning the B.S. degree (Phi Beta Kappa) in liberal arts and sciences (psychology) from the University of Illinois. He joined the UMaine faculty in 1986 as director of the Psychological Services Center, the training clinic for UMaine's doctoral program in clinical psychology.
Dr. Hecker is a clinical researcher whose work focuses on understanding and treating anxiety, and more recently on risk assessment for people who have committed sexual offenses, including adolescents. He is the author of two books and scores of journal articles and presentations. A licensed clinical psychologist, Dr. Hecker has extensive experience in providing research and clinical consultation to the Maine Department of Corrections, Division of Juvenile Services; and as a mental health consultant for the Penobscot Job Corps Center and Penquis CAP Head Start, both in Bangor.
He advanced through the academic ranks to professor of psychology, chairing the Department of Psychology from 2002–07. In 2007, he was named interim dean and, a year later, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
Dr. Hecker has been honored during his distinguished service to the university, community and profession, with recognition including the 2006 University of Maine College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Outstanding Faculty Award for service and outreach, and the 1994 Maine Psychological Association Award for Outstanding Academic Contributions to Psychology.

Sorg to Lead State Effort on Violent Death Data Collection, BDN Reports
The Bangor Daily News reported the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has awarded almost $1 million to Maine to help pay for gathering data on violent deaths using the National Violent Death Reporting System over the next five years. The grant will allow the state to compile information about the relationships between domestic abuse, homicide and suicide, according to the article. The data will supplement the work of groups such as the Domestic Abuse Homicide Review Panel, which examines domestic abuse homicides to understand how the deaths can be prevented. Marcella Sorg, a forensic anthropologist for the state and a research professor at the University of Maine, is leading the effort with Margaret Greenwald, the recently retired chief medical examiner. The two doctors previously analyzed drug death statistics, and their work has been nationally recognized and has provided information to guide Maine drug policy decisions, the article states. WABI (Channel 5) also reported on the study.
Brewer Quoted in BDN Article on 1st Congressional District Race
Mark Brewer, a political science professor at the University of Maine, was quoted in the Bangor Daily News article, "With re-election bid seemingly secure, Pingree devotes attention — and cash — to electing other Democrats," about incumbent U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree and the 1st Congressional District race. Pingree is being challenged by political newcomers Isaac Misiuk, a Republican from Gorham, and Sanford independent Richard Murphy. "She has two challengers, but the reality is she's unchallenged — there's no way she's not going to win," Brewer said. "Especially when you have somebody who aspires to a leadership position, which everybody basically knows Pingree does, it's common for them to spread the money around to other candidates and call those favors in later."

Lara Katz, a senior from Arlington, Virginia majoring in wildlife ecology, with minors in anthropology and psychology, is this year's Robert I. Ashman Scholar, the top academic award in UMaine's forest resources and wildlife programs.
Growing up in the suburbs of Washington D.C., Katz began her wildlife career volunteering at the Smithsonian National Zoo where she discovered her passion for conserving wildlife and their habitats. At UMaine, she is involved in research focused on fish ecology and river restoration. Her career goals include working as a wildlife biologist and effectively communicating wildlife science to the public for sound conservation.
Also selected for recognition as top students in forest resources and wildlife as Dwight B. Demeritt Scholars are Lucas Lamond and Tabatha Hawkins.
Lamond is a senior from Brewer, Maine majoring in forest operations, bioproducts and bioenergy. He is a student employee working in the University Forests and plans to start his own business managing Maine woodlands for improved wildlife habitat.
Hawkins is a senior from Norway, Maine majoring in wildlife ecology.

Hawkins is co-president the UMaine Student Chapter of The Wildlife Society, and is a student ambassador for the Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Conservation Biology.
Monhegan Island Tourism Survey Led by Noblet Focus of Working Waterfront Article
A survey of Monhegan Island's summer visitors led by Caroline Noblet, an economics professor at the University of Maine, was the focus of the Working Waterfront article, "Monhegan tourism survey reveals low worry about wind project." Researchers asked 180 summer visitors their views on the university's proposed floating wind turbines off the island's coast. According to the article, more than half of the study participants did not know about the wind power proposal; 70 percent said if built, the project would neither detract from nor enhance their visit; and 88 percent said turbines would not change the number of visits they would make to the island. Noblet said the survey was less about the project and more about "how people react to scientific information in decision making."
BDN Advances Talk by Leading Rabbi in Christian-Jewish Relations
The Bangor Daily News reported Rabbi A. James Rudin of Florida will speak at 3 p.m. Thursday in the Bangor Room of the Memorial Union at the University of Maine and at 7 p.m. the same day at Congregation Beth Israel in Bangor. Rudin is the senior interreligious adviser of the American Jewish Committee and has served as the organization's longtime director of interreligious affairs, the article states. The title of Rudin's UMaine talk is "The Jewish Jesus and the Christian Christ: Is There a Difference?" Rudin's Maine appearances are sponsored by several groups including the UMaine Judaic Studies Program, Honors College and the Wilson Center.
Working Waterfront Interviews Rebar, Lichtenwalner About Pest Lab Bond Proposal
The Working Waterfront spoke with John Rebar, executive director of the University of Maine Cooperative Extension, and Anne Lichtenwalner, director of UMaine's Animal Health Laboratory, about Question 2 on the November ballot that will ask Maine voters to approve an $8 million bond for animal and plant diagnostic services. The bond would allow UMaine Extension to build a new facility on campus to house labs for the monitoring and testing of insects and pests that affect domestic and wild plants and animals in Maine. "As a state with a large international border, thousands of miles of coastlines, and people and goods coming to Maine ports every day, the threat of disease and invasive species is increasing annually. This threat can destroy crops, kill or injure livestock and pose a threat to public health," Rebar said, adding staff is "very limited" in what they can do in the current lab.
UMaine Study Cited in Mainebiz Article on Monhegan Island Residents
A University of Maine study was cited in the Mainebiz article, "On the edge: Monhegan Island's year-round residents take charge of their future." The study reported that residents of Maine's 15 year-round islands pay at least one-third more for basic food items than the state average, according to the article. Recent UMaine graduate Ben Algeo also was mentioned in the article. Algeo graduated in May with a bachelor's degree in political science and renewable energy. He is an Island Institute fellow working with Monhegan and Matinicus islands to identify their most pressing energy efficiency needs and possible solutions, the article states.

If you bear with the animal-centric cacophony of the first few spins, Panda Bear's surprise four-track EP, "Mr. Noah," delights with repeat listens.
If you're willing to shake it off and party in a kitten-filled, frosting-topped New York, Taylor Swift's "1989" is a lot of fun.
On "The Best Day," Thurston Moore moves from the folky elements of his past solo efforts to more of a rambling, instrumental-heavy, Sonic Youth feel.
London pop chanteuse Jessie Ware returns with another lovelorn round of catchy pop, setting her self up for a crossover third album, "Tough Love."
An album like "Tropical Jinx" is hard to put a succinct description on. Little Big League has made something close to punk, but not quite it.
California indie-psych darlings Foxygen return with a follow-up to their excellent debut album with a scatter-brained double LP, "…And Star Power."
Let's get right to the point: The new Weezer album does not suck. Actually, it's pretty good.
With his fifth LP, "You're Dead!," Flying Lotus addresses the specter of death with equal parts grim meditation and "no hard feelings" humor.
Coming in at 15 tracks and at least six bonus songs, SBTRKT doesn't hit cruise control on the lengthy release, "Wonder Where We Land."
Unlike anything Christopher Owens has done before, "A New Testament" is an old school country record. Also, the album cover is ridiculous.
