Fulfillment of the requirement includes honors research and writing a thesis (POL 493-494), as well as an oral defense at the end of each semester. Please see the Honors Program for more information; paperwork usually must be completed by April 15 of the junior year. Departmental Honors recipients count their Honors coursework sequence (POL 493-494) as 1 POL upper division and 1 senior seminar course.

The legend of Santa Claus is derived from the European figure of St. Nicholas and American children's holiday poems of the 19th century. Now, Santa Claus is the jolly folk hero all children dream about on Christmas Eve. He embodies childhood innocence and magical delight.
Each figural glass ornament produced for The Merck Family's Old World Christmas is hand crafted in age-old tradition using the same techniques that originated in the 1800s. Molten glass is mouth-blown into finely carved molds available only to the Merck Family's Old World Christmas, before a hot solution of liquid silver is poured inside. The ornaments are then hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful creations.

A little about me...
Thank you for stopping by.
I have been a widow for over 2 years. I am a caring, giving, loving person looking for the same. I am very affectionate and like hugging and holding hands. I am looking for a best friend, someone to talk with and just enjoy each others company
I enjoy cultural events, music festivals sports especially football and sometimes just cuddling on the couch with a good movie or book. I enjoy traveling to new places, camping and 4 wheeling with the family, and I am ready for any new adventure. I recently took up golf and need a patient partner to help me improve my game.
Paris in the spring would be my ultimate vacation.
I have a good sense of humor and can laugh at myself . I am very easy to get along with.
I recently moved to Livingston to be near my youngest daughter and her family.
I would like to find a gentle man who is loving and caring. Large family growing up so there are group gatherings, camping and 4 wheeling, fishing and Sunday dinners.
About the one I'm looking for...
I'd just like to add...
Send me a message.

By Wallace Witkowski, MarketWatch
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch)--Nike Inc. is reportedly matching an up-to-$285-million endorsement deal from Under Armour Inc. for Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant that would keep the NBA star part of Team Swoosh for years to come.
On Sunday, ESPN reported Nike (NKE) has stepped up its game, telling Durant's representatives, JayZ's Roc Nation Sports, it will exercise its right to match an estimated $265 million to $285 million endorsement deal from Under Armour (UA). The move would keep Durant with Nike after his current endorsement deal expires.
Under Armour shares dipped 1.6% to close at $69.44 on Aug. 21 while the broader market logged gains after the company offered Durant the 10-year deal. Shares have yet to fully rebound and closed down 1.9% at $68.38 on Friday.
Durant is a hot property for Nike, rivaling shoe styles endorsed by Cleveland's LeBron James and Kobe Bryant of the L.A. Lakers. In back-to-school sales, those Nike styles have driven a 51% increase in basketball gear sales, according to a recent note from Sterne Agee analyst Sam Poser.
"Strong sales were driven by the launches of the [Kevin Durant] KD7 "35,000 Feet," the "July 4th" styles for Kobe and LeBron, and the Air Jordan 3 -- Sport Blue," Poser noted.
As is often the case with high-profile sports endorsements, Durant stands to make much more endorsing gear than playing basketball. About $41.2 million remains on Durant's contract with Oklahoma City over the next two years.
Back in 2007, Durant signed a 7-year endorsement deal with Nike for $60 million, reportedly several million dollars less than a competing offer from Adidas, underscoring Durant's wish to be affiliated with Nike.
Sterne Agee's Poser also notes that Under Armour sales have been challenging Nike sales when it comes to children going back to school.
"In the [last four weeks], UA children' apparel sales increased +37.8% in the National Accounts channel, versus +16.2% for Nike brand," Poser wrote. "However, brand Jordan children increased 54.4%. UA, Nike, and Jordan constitute 27.8%, 39.8%, and 10% total children' apparel sales in National Accounts, versus 24.1%, 41%, and 7.5% for the same period last year."

over a long-running match-fixing case.
Metalist lawyers attended a two-hour disciplinary hearing at UEFA headquarters on Tuesday, and the Champions League organizer said its judgment is expected within 24 hours.
If the Ukrainian club loses the ruling, it can appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport and possibly continue in the competition while that case is processed. Metalist is scheduled to play Aug. 21 at Schalke in the playoff round.
UEFA opened disciplinary proceedings last week after CAS dismissed the Metalist sports director's appeal against a five-year ban imposed by the Ukrainian Football Federation. The official, Yevhen Krasnikov, was implicated in fixing an April 2008 league match against Karpaty Lviv.

Buurman hoping for F1 race seat by 2012
|D. Ricciardo
|J. d`Ambrosio
|S. Bird
17 November 2010 – Yelmer Buurman very much enjoyed his debut outing in a Formula 1 car on Wednesday. Following a planned drive for regular Force India reserve driver Paul di Resta which concluded at half past ten, the Dutchman stepped into the cockpit and hopes to be racing in the sport within the next two years.
"Obviously it's an amazing experience to finally get out on-track in an F1 car," he said. "You go into it expecting something and it's even more impressive than you imagined.
"I was really blown away by the performance and the steering, but I felt I got used to it quite quickly. It's been a great day although not everything worked out as planned, with several red flags that interrupted a lot of our runs.
"At the end we then stopped out on-track and ran out of time to do a run on the new tyres - and that would have put us higher up the order.
"This was my first step into F1. My aim is to do more F1 testing in 2011 - combined with GP2 or Superleague Formula - and to be a F1 race driver in 2012, with the support of some Dutch multinationals we are talking to.
"I am ready for it and like to thank Force India F1 for this test today."

2013 BMW 135is Coupe
BMW's Best 1 Series Gives Back What You Put In Every once in a while, I find myself, despite my solitary leanings and inherent modesty, working out in some kind of class setting. The tone and tenor of these classes ranges wildly – from the quiet, follow-the-leader variety, to those with a kind of Cult of Personality man or woman calling the shots, usually with idiom-laden shouting and theatrical hair. Despite their personal variation and range of professional effectiveness, there's one common concept that most instructors bring up at some point: working with intention. The idea... Read More

Fans of the original BMW M3 might not be enamored by the current V8 model, but the upcoming 1 Series M Coupe promises to bring it back to the source.

When BMW trotted out the 1-series coupe at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2007, the jumbo-tron was awash in videos and stills of the 2002 as the automaker attempted to associate the new 128i and 135i with BMW's iconic coupe.

Meghan met us at a beautiful River Ranch home and the UL Alumni Center for her bridal session.
Tessa certainly doesn't need a beautiful white dress to look beautiful, she is simply a natural beauty! But once we saw her adorned with her Maggie Sottero Bernadette wedding dress, she took our breath away! She found her perfect dress at Imaginations in Brookhaven, MS. We met up with Tessa at a very unique venue in Hattiesburg called The Barn at Bridlewood. This is no typical barn, it was build especially for weddings and events! Everything about the "barn" is very shabby chic. It was the perfect southern venue for this stunning southern bride.
Blooms -A Garden Shop provided Tessa's bouquet for the bridal session as well as for the wedding day. We have worked with Blooms Garden Shop several times in the past and they always do a great job. We'd absolutely recommend them if you are getting married around the Hattiesburg area.
I personally loved this wall, but it was in a hidden area of the Barn. Perhaps if you've been to the barn, you may be able to recognize it, tell me if you do!
Sadly, The Barn at Bridlewood was involved in a fire which almost destroyed it just a few weeks after we shot this session. Thankfully, they were able to rebuild! I know couples around Hattiesburg are thrilled to have this venue in their area, and I'm sure that many couples will be using it to host their ceremony and their celebration for years to come. I personally can't wait to get back, hopefully I'll have a chance to shoot a wedding there soon!
Be sure to check out Tessa and Brian's New Orleans engagement session that we posted a few months ago. I'd have to say it certainly was romantic, they are such a great couple! You can view those images here:
We'll be posting their wedding soon! They even had a special guest that many Hattiesburg residents and Southern Miss fans will recognize. Do you recognize the name Seymour? Stay tuned!!
Just a little something from my most recent workshop . Yes I love to teach all of the amazing attendees and help them build their knowledge , but I have to admit it is pretty fun to get to play as well .
Thanks to all of those who attended and to all of my lovely models !

Despite The Wanted?s Nathan Sykes?s prognostication of possibly working together in the future, Louis recently put to rest any ideas of such a partnership, saying: "It's a shame that the Wanted thing escalated, but there's going to be no kissing and making up, that's for sure.

Faction Lyrics - Candiria
This death is comfortable
Beggar's life intolerable
Running with the madmen
Lowest of fears can't fathom
Measure your breath in fractions
Fists clenched
Touch my heart it mends
Sour taste can't pretend
Visions of hope burn deep inside
Shine through the hidden eye
The burden of fixation preys
Won't lift and dissipate
The barking tongues
Sweetened breath invade my lungs
Now i can see the truth in full
A matter of fact impressionable
The love in me is sensual
Soul of mine disperse
Veins are boiling
Remedy deserts
Constant hurting
Give me back
All of my respect for self
And full of shit
Absence of the inner wealth
Time is racing
Slave puppet
Cut your life
From the point of view
That keeps you on your backside
Trust in my clique
Odds are
One to six
Revolution of the sick
Give it up Give it up
Give it up for the mastermind
rotherhood like family
Spiritual design
The verbal menace
Welcome to my madness
The cause
Factions ise up then deply
Non attractive
The language of the masses
Am I of the ashes?
My friend
Blood runs thick until the end
Upright position
Move in the forward fashion
Cambodia ascends
The striking similarity reeks
Bastardized to walk with
Weak of weak
Which do you seek?
The victory or defeat
Peace beautifies all,
A kingpin standing tall
Never fall
Who will be the first to crawl?
I respect.
If you need a hand I'll lend
If you respect me over backwards I will bend
Deny the disguise in disgust
Are you sleeping with the demons
To evolve into your lust?

Firm Networking and Bribery in China: Assessing Some Potential Negative Consequences of Firm Openness

Economic openness, both in terms of increased international trade exposure and enhanced inter-firm networking, has been a key element of China's economic emergence since the implementation of market reforms and the "opening-up policy" over 30 years ago. Unfortunately, these changes have also coincided with the increased incidence of bribery and corruption. Both in general, and in the specific context of China, research on the relationship between a firm's tendency toward openness and its propensity to engage in bribery is scarce. This study seeks to fill this gap based on empirical evidence provided by a large sample of Chinese firms. The findings of the study reveal that firms' increased networking and openness tend to occur contemporaneously with greater bribery and corruption. We suggest that this may be due to the misuse of guanxi-based networks that coincide with the presence of firms' open network strategies, heightened by the potential loss of resource and capability heterogeneity (and hence reduced competitive advantages) in the context of openness. We further find that firms paying bribes do so as an attempt to overcome unnecessary bureaucratic processes and ineffective institutional support that might tend to hinder their development.

Is there public information regarding State Trooper misconduct?
In truth, I don't know. The research I've done for you on the topic doesn't look promising as far as online searches go, but is more promising as far as in-person/written requests are concerned.
While a lawyer/court could probably subpoena information about a particular trooper from the Professional Standards Division, it doesn't appear as though this information is PUBLICLY available in a searchable online format. That said, publication of that information is made to the person filing the complaint:
Will the individual who signed the complaint be notified of the outcome of the investigation?
"A: The complainant will receive a letter from the superintendent summarizing the results of the investigation. "
It also seems that "investigative" reports are public record, and may be requested from the Custodian of Records office. (http://www.mshp.dps.mo.gov/MSHPWeb/PatrolDivisi...). In-person inquiries are handled in Jefferson City, 1510 East Elm Street, Jefferson City, MO 65102-0568, but you can also mail a request to them or fill out an online request form. There appears to be a charge for this service, but you have the right to inspect records for free before you purchase or copy them. I don't know how much purchase or copying costs, but the phone number for viewing appointments (573-526-6167) might be able to answer that question or direct you to someone who can.
Thanks for the question, it was good to have a chance to learn something about the process. Good luck!

The Cowboys will open the preseason at San Diego on a schedule likely to mean a shorter stay in California for training camp.
Dallas has a home game against Baltimore the second week before traveling to Miami. The Cowboys would double the length of their trip to Florida if they returned to camp in Oxnard, Calif.
The Cowboys spent almost four weeks in California a year ago. The stay could be around two weeks this year.
Denver's DeMarcus Ware, the franchise sacks leader in Dallas, is set to visit his old home but probably won't play in the preseason finale. Ware signed with the Broncos after the Cowboys released him.
Dallas has no preseason games scheduled for national television.

The WWE Hall of Fame was created 20 years ago this month. In February 1993, Andre the Giant was inducted. He was the sole inductee that year and I believe was a relatively low key event. In the years that followed, greats like Gorilla Monsoon, the Fabulous Moolah, and Buddy Rogers took their place in the hall. The WWE took an eight year hiatus on inducting wrestlers, managers, and announcers before making it a big ceremony prior to Wrestlemania. Legends like Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, and Harley Race were then given the nod.
Through the years though one man has not been a part of the festivities. Bruno Sammartino, the longest reigning WWE champion ever. He held the title twice for a total of more than 11 years. That is completely unheard of in this day and age. I know things are different now with more TV and pay per views, but none-the-less, Bruno is a legend.
There are a number of reasons why it took so long to get here, but the point of this blog is we're finally there. I'm glad to hear that the WWE has reached a compromise with Bruno to induct "the Living Legend." I've read that Triple H helped to broker the deal. Kudos to him for working so diligently to make this happen. It's a long overdue honor and in my opinion helps make the WWE Hall of Fame seem a little more legit. Add Bob Backlund to the mix this year and you've got two of the all time great champions going in.
I know some have argued Bruno had his chance and refused and the WWE should have moved on. I disagree. This is a significant moment and I'm happy to say I'll be live at Madison Square Garden to see the ceremony. While I'm not the biggest Bruno fan, I can recognize his place in history and how important it is for him to be in the Hall of Fame.

Manchester United arrived in Hong Kong on Saturday afternoon and, as has been the norm on Tour 2013 presented by Aon, were greeted by dozens of fanatical supporters at the team hotel.
It wasn't long before the Reds regrettably announced the cancellation of Sunday's open training session at the Hong Kong Stadium, due to the heavy rainfall that had saturated the pitch over the previous week.
So the Reds enjoyed a session at Kitchee FC's training ground on Sunday morning, before taking part in various media and commercial activities in the afternoon.
Those included a visit to a Nike store in nearby Mong Kok, where thousands of fans lined the streets to greet Tom Cleverley, Patrice Evra and Danny Welbeck, who took part in a Q&A session and played table football on a table created especially for the Reds by Hong Kong artist/sculptor Michael Lau.
Adnan Januzaj and Jesse Lingard attended a UNICEF event with children from deprived backgrounds in Hong Kong, joining in a game of dodgeball to highlight the importance of play and physical activity in the youngsters' development.
Meanwhile, two lucky competition winners got the chance to teach Anderson, Fabio, Phil Jones, Ben Amos and Michael Keane how to write their names in Chinese characters. And in the early evening, Jones joined David Moyes at a press conference to preview Monday night's friendly against Kitchee.

Breaking Local News
Police send reminder it's illegal to text and drive
It's illegal to text in a vehicle, even if you're stopped at a stoplight. It's okay to dial the phone to call someone while you're sitting at the light, but no texting. A state law making texting while driving a primary offense went into effect July 1. Talking on a cellphone while driving was made a secondary offense then, and beginning July 1, 2013 you'll have to have a hands free device to talk on a cell phone in the car. Police say despite the new laws in effect, they're still noticing a problem with texting while driving. Fines for first offenses are $50; for second offenses, $100; and for third and subsequent offenses, $200.
Sentencing today for ex-Lincoln Co. Sheriff
Federal prosecutors say former Lincoln County sheriff Jerry Bowman was a big help during the investigation into an election fraud scheme, and because of that he may get a break when he's sentenced for his role in it. Bowman has pleaded guilty to conspiring to influence outcomes with fraudulent absentee ballots. Bowman apparently helped prosecutors convince Lincoln County Commissioner Thomas Ramey to resign and plead guilty for his role. Bowman is scheduled to be sentenced today along with co-conspirator and ex-Lincoln County Clerk Donald Whitten.
Nitro honors late soccer coach
Nitro continues to remember a beloved soccer coach. Assistant coach Dick Green died Saturday after suffering a massive heart attack at the age of 57. The Nitro girls are just a few games into the soccer season and wanted to do something to honor the late coach, so Monday night a large crowd gathered at mid field of Nitro High School's soccer field to light a candle in honor of Green. he was a coach for many years in Putnam County.
Trooper shot and killed by suspect in Wallback
A violent and tragic incident Tuesday night at the Wallback park and ride off Interstate 79 left one State Police trooper dead. Two troopers were conducting a traffic stop near the Roane-Clay county border, when the suspect reportedly pulled out a gun and shot both officers and the driver of a wrecker. The other trooper is in critical condition. A Roane County sheriff's deputy who tracked the suspect down after he fled on foot was also injured by a bullet, but suffered non-life threatening injuries. The suspect was eventually shot and killed, and the wounded were taken to CAMC General Hospital. The investigation is underway, and more information should be released today.
Company to add hundreds of jobs in the area
TRG Customer Solutions is based in Jacksonville, Florida, but West Virginia call centers are about to add jobs. Governor Earl Ray Tomblin announced Monday that TRG will add 130 jobs and fill 195 vacant positions here, including 100 new hires at the company's Beckley call center, 125 in Charleston and 100 in Elkins. To apply, contact Workforce West Virginia offices, employment recruiters, or go to TRG's website. TRG outsources customer management and technologies and has about five thousand employees worldwide.
Mountain State students head back to class
The fall semester is underway at Mountain State. Students headed back to campus Monday, and then many of them may become University of Charleston students. UC agreed to take over the school in January, after Mountain State loses accreditation December 31. UC will assist Mountain State during this fall semester, and will continue some Mountain State programs next spring. Students who have enough credits to graduate this fall can do so with either Mountain State or the University of Charleston on their diploma. Fifty one academic programs have been approved now by the Higher Learning Commission for the teach out plan that allows students to stay in Beckley. There are about 550 students enrolled this fall.
Dunbar police investigate rape and assault
Police are still investigating a Dunbar break-in that happened early Sunday. A man and woman who lived at a home on Moore Avenue in Dunbar were attacked by three men and a woman who police say forced their way into the home. Cash and other items were taken, and the woman was sexually assaulted and the man beaten, according to police. Police think it's an isolated incident that the couple may have been targeted for valuables in the home. Dunbar is usually much quieter on the crime scene, and police have no reason to believe others are in danger. Dunbar police are investigating all leads now and appreciate any tips.
DUI arrest after accident
Two people were hurt Sunday in a traffic accident in Buckhannon, and a man was arrested for DUI afterward. The accident happened at the intersection of U.S. Route 33 and Vegan Road, and 55-year old Ronald Deuley of Ellamore is accused of pulling out in front of the car that hit him. Deuley was arrested for his third driving under the influence offense in the past 10 years, according to police. The other two men in Deuley's vehicle were injured. The driver of the other car was not hurt.
VFD's could be hurt by new regulations
Some say new regulations proposed by the State Fire Commission would be too expensive for volunteer fire departments, and could hurt their ability to function. The proposed rules would force adoption of more than 90 standards and require stricter training and certification processes. Late last week the Charleston Civic Center hsoted a forum for concerned volunteer firefighters to speak out against the proposed changes. The state code is not something that can be ignored. Each violation is a misdemeanor crime that costs $100 per infraction per day.
State is collecting photos for calendar contest
If you have good photos of wildflowers, those could end up in a new state calendar. The latest "Roadsides in Bloom" calendar is being put together now, and the state departments of Environmental Protection and Transportation are sponsoring. Photos should be submitted by October 1, and then judges will pick 12 for the calendar. The grand prize winner will get the front cover.
The rules of the contest are available through the Adopt-a-Highway program.
