Map of the La Plata Basin, showing the Tietê River flowing from São Paulo to the Paraná River.
The Tietê River (Portuguese, Rio Tietê)[3] is a Brazilian river in the state of São Paulo.
The source is in Salesópolis in the Serra do Mar, at 1,120 m altitude. Although the source is at most 22 kilometres (14 mi) from the coast, the escarpment of the Serra do Mar forces it to run in the opposite direction, to the interior, going through the state of São Paulo from southeast to northwest till it runs into the artificial lake formed by Eng Souza Dias (Jupiá) Dam on the Paraná River, in the municipality of Três Lagoas, about 50 kilometres (31 mi) from the city of Pereira Barreto.
The name Tietê was registered for the first time on a map published in 1748 by d'Anville.[4] The name signifies "The truthful river", or "truthful waters"[5] in Tupi.
Sources of the Tietê River[edit]
A "set of sources" make up the "Park of the sources of the Tietê River,"[clarification needed] which is situated in the municipality of Salesópolis. It is an area of about 134 hectares, of which 9,6 ha already is under environmental control. This park protects the varying sources of the river and will certainly form the most important protected area of the state of São Paulo.[clarification needed]
Initially, when the park was in the hands of private persons, the original flora were destroyed. When the property rights fell to the State, its area was recuperated and is now presenting secondary forest again. A local mural provides some data of the sources of the Tietê River. As these data indicate, one may verify that a source produces more than 3 cubic metres per hour (0.029 cu ft/s) of water. Along the length of its initial stretch, the Tietê River receives additional water from various small streams, turning into a current with an elevated volume of water, in the short distance it has run.
On entering the municipality of Salesópolis, it encounters one of the first hydroelectric power stations constructed in Brazil, which is the actual "Usina Parque de Salesópolis" ("park of Salesópolis" Factory), Constructed in 1912 by the old São Paulo Tramway, Light and Power Company, it generated energy from an artificial waterfall with a height of 72 m of the river. The park is open for public visits, and there is a museum next to the factory. From 2008 the production of electric energy has been resumed.
Area of influence[edit]
The Tietê River runs through the metropolitan area of São Paulo City and runs through 1,136 kilometres (706 mi) of the interior of the São Paulo state, up to the municipality of Itapura, into its mouth, the Paraná River, at the border with Mato Grosso do Sul.
Within the city of São Paulo, it runs next to the express highway Marginal Tietê, which, together with the Marginal Pinheiros, makes up the principal road system of the city. It is estimated that 2,000,000 vehicles pass through either one of the two "marginals" per day CET Company for Traffic Engineering.
Not far after leaving the city of São Paulo, the Tietê River turns to the municipality of Santana de Parnaíba at the hydro-electric station of Edgar de Souza and a little bit further the hydroelectric station of Rasgão and between these two the dam of Pirapora do Bom Jesus.
Both hydroelectric power stations were constructed by the old São Paulo Tramway, Light and Power Company and have contributed significantly to the energy used in the city of São Paulo.
The Tietê River drains an area composed of six hydrographic sub-basins (The high Tietê, Sorocaba/Médio Tietê, Piracicaba-Capivari-Jundiaí, Tietê/Batalha, Tietê/Jacaré and the Low Tietê).[citation needed]
Utilisation of hydroelectric power[edit]
Along the length of the Tietê River many dams were constructed with the intention of profiting from the hydroelectric power potential. Among these are:
- Salesópolis Dam, in Salesópolis.
- Edgard de Souza Dam, in Santana de Parnaíba.
- Pirapora do Bom Jesus Dam, in Pirapora do Bom Jesus
- Rasgão Dam, in the municípality of Pirapora do Bom Jesus.
- Laras Dam, near Laranjal Paulista
- Anhembi Dam, near the city of Anhembi.
- Barra Bonita Dam, near the city of Barra Bonita
- Bariri Dam, near city of Bariri.
- Ibitinga Dam, between Borborema and Iacanga.
- Mário Lopes Leão, near to the cities of Promissão and Avanhandava
- Três Irmãos Dam – Permitted the approval of using part of the water of the Tietê River in the plant of Ilha Solteira along the Pereira Barreto canal which connects two lakes and two dams.
In several dams, for instance the Barra Bonita, systems of locks were implemented to make navigation on the river possible. Many barges transport produce of the region at a cost which is lower than road transport. The waterway of the Tietê-Paraná permits navigation over a length of 1,100 kilometres (680 mi) between Conchas on the river Tietê (São Paulo) and São Simão (Goiás), on the Paranaíba River and then, up to ltaipu, attaining 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) of waterway. It already moves more than one million metric tons of grains (maize) per year, at an average distance of 700 kilometres (430 mi). If we calculate the loads with a small distance like sand, gravel, and sugarcane, the movement on the river Tietê is approximately 2 million metric tons. (source : DNIT) Of this waterway, about 450 kilometres (280 mi) of the Tietê River is fully navigable[6][7]
Pollution and environmental degradation[edit]
Although the Tiete River is said to be one of the most important rivers economically for the state of São Paulo and for the country, the Tietê River is best known for its environmental problems, especially for the stretch through the city of São Paulo.[citation needed]
The pollution of the Tietê River did not start long ago. Even in the 1960s, the river still had fish in the stretch within the capital. However, the environmental degradation of the Tietê River started subtly in the 1920s with the construction of the Guarapiranga Reservoir, by the Canadian firm São Paulo Tramway, Light and Power Company, for the later generation of electrical energy in the hydroelectric power stations Edgar de Souza and Rasgão, situated in Santana de Parnaíba. This intervention altered the regime of the waters in the capital and was accompanied with some rectification works also by the São Paulo Tramway, Light and Power Company, which left the bed of the river less winding, in the region between Vila Maria and "Freguesia do Ó."
Even in the 1920s and 1930s, the river was utilised for fishing and sports activities were famous as were the nautical races on the river. During this period boat race clubs were created along the length of the river, such as the Club of the Tietê races and the Espéria, clubs that exist till now.
The process of degradation of the river by industrial pollution of the river and household debris along the stretch of Grand São Paulo takes its origin mainly in the process of industrialisation and of the uncoordinated urban expansion from the 1940s to the 1970s, accompanied by the expansion of the population during that period, such that the city's population grew from 2 million inhabitants in the 1940s to more than 6 million in the 1960s.[citation needed]
This process of degradation from the 1940s also affected its main tributaries, such as the Tamanduateí and the Aricanduva rivers, the first particularly more dangerously because the Tamanduateí goes through the region of the ABC industrial waste of the huge factories of that region. The policy of permitting a grand expansion of the national industrial park of São Paulo without environmental counter measures instigated the rapid decline of the use of the Tietê river for the provisioning of the city and for leisure.
In the 1980s, the Governor of the state contracted the studies of SANEGRAN (Sanetisation of Grande São Paulo), by ENGEVIX, under the coordination of the sanitising engineer Jorge Paes Rios, However, the works were never executed because of the enormous costs and the lack of political will.
In September 1990, the Radio Eldorado made a special live program, with two reporters: one, the owner of Radio Eldorado, was in São Paulo, navigating on the Tietê river and commenting about the pollution and deterioration of the waters and the river, the other, of the Brazilian service emitting from London via the British radio BBC, was navigating the dirty and polluted waters of the Thames in London, England, commenting about the quality of that river, which was passing through a process of recuperation since the 1950s.
Such a radio program provoked a lot of comment from other organs of the press, mainly from the journal "O Estado de S. Paulo", of the same group as the radio.
A non governmental organisation, United Pro-Tietê Nucleus, led by Mário Mantovani, became the voice, canalising the public pressure for a cleaner river. The civil society cooperated by signing more than a million signatures, one of the best undersigned declarations of will yet realised in the country.
The Tietê project[edit]
Overcome by such a heavy popular pressure the governor of São Paulo, elected in October 1990, ordered the Sabesp—a company for basic sanitising of the state, to take it upon them to establish a program to clean up the river. The state at the same time sought help at the Inter American Development Bank—and proposed a project for the recuperation of the river, based on the former studies of SANEGRAN. The difficult task to put an end to the pollution generated by the drains of the Região Metropolitana de São Paulo received the name of Project Tietê. It is not an exclusively governmental project, because it counts on intensive participation of organisations of the civil society. Actually, the Tietê Project is the main environmental recuperation project of the country.
After more than 16 years, the cleaning up of the river Tietê is still far short of desired levels, but encouraging progress has been made. At the end of the 1990s, the capacity of sewage treatment has been expanded: the Sabesp made the expansion of treatment capacity of the Station "Wastewater Treatment Plant in Barueri", 20 kilometres (12 mi) from the municipality of São Paulo and began the "Seasons of the Sewage Treatment of New World Park", at San Miguel and ABC, to treat the rest of the sewage of the city of São Paulo.
At the beginning of the program, the percentage of treated sewage for sewage collected was no more than 20% in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo. In 2004, this percentage was 63% (including primary and secondary treatment). It is expected that by the end of the program, this rate will reach 90%. Currently, the program is in its third phase. The stain of pollution of the Tietê River, which in the 1990s reached 100 kilometres (62 mi), has been reduced gradually in the course of the works of Tietê Project.
However, one must remember that along the length of the whole river, outside of the Metropolitan Region, all of the municipalities of the basin collect sewage but not all their sewage is properly treated, which demonstrates that there is still a lot to be done. The program of the cleanup of the Tietê river also focuses on the control of industrial waste.
According to the State Government, through Cetesb, the São Paulo environmental agency, 1200 industries, corresponding to 90% of the industrial pollution load released into the river Tietê, joined the project and stopped to launch all kinds of wastes and contaminants into the water course.
Since the beginning of the program up in 1992, the program has spent more than 1.5 billion dollars.
However, according to experts in environmental sanitation and engineering, despite the investments, diffuse pollution in the metropolitan area, consisting of acid rain, dust, garbage and waste from vehicles (leaking fluid oil, residue from brake pads, among others) continue going into the gullies of rainwater without treatment instead of into separate gullies that deliver into the sewage system, because the network is not connected to the sewage system.
Apart from the problem of pollution, the Tietê river is also famous for another environmental problem: the inundations provoked by floods.[citation needed]
The Tietê was always a meandering river and because of the construction of the avenues on both sides of the river it was necessary to rectify its natural course. The disorderly growth of the city also has made the soil of the basin of the Tietê in the region of Greater São Paulo impenetrable: Asphalt, roofs, pavements and courtyards prevent the rain water from penetrating into the ground in order to be temporarily retained, and then slowly seep into the river. A large percentage of the rain immediately runs off to the streams that ultimately lead to the Tietê that, for lack of greater capacity is not able to absorb the volume, thus leading to inundations and flooding. Stimulating measures to retain the water, would require a greater awareness of the population to prevent the sealing off of the soil.[citation needed]
The filling occurs when the Tietê suddenly receives a large volume of water from its afluentes such as the Aricanduva River, which unloads thousands of cubic meters of water in some few minutes. It takes some time before the velocity of the water in the Tiete river rises to a new level, during which time the river water spoils onto its flanks. Because of this hydraulic phenomenon the Tietê river needs a lateral area to absorb the floodwater.
This area exists and is situated some meters below the marginal avenues. When the area of inundation is clean, without weeds, rubbish, sewage or barracks of invaders, the equilibrium is perfect: The flood occurs but is not able to invade the marginal avenues, let alone the neighbouring streets.
Governors and technicians have, during the last decades, not adequately maintained the bedding of the river, and in some cases have taken to technically erroneous measures, such as trying to dredge the river at the height of the rainy season.
Between 2002 and 2006, the then governor of the state, Geraldo Alckmin, concluded a great project of deepening and "urbanising of the flanks of" the river, a work that started in the decade of the 1980s. This deepening was done notwithstanding the dredging of the river, the deepening also obtained with explosives, sub aquatic bottom perforation and dredging.
The problem is yet far from being definitively solved. However, the Marginal Tietê managed to be without inundations for three years, between 2001 and 2004. On 25 May 2005, unexpectedly, there occurred a new inundation, caused by a terrific downpour, the second major one since 1943, according to the journal Folha São Paulo, which according to the municipal authorities and experts justifies an exceptional widening of the Tiete. From then up to now other heavy rainfalls have not resulted in a river going out of its borders like before.

The Tietê River in culture and arts[edit]
The Tietê River is frequently treated in culture and arts, as the symbol of the degradation of the quality of life of the inhabitants of São Paulo.[citation needed]
In the arts, one of the most famous personages linked to the Tietê is the comic strip series "Piratas do Tietê", of the cartoonist Laerte. In this series, bloody pirates navigate the rio Tietê river, provoking chaos in the city.[citation needed]

PARIS: Aztecs no dud in torching Hawaii
So while Hawaii was being sloppy, Aztecs fans were getting silly. This turned into a Mission Valley-style luau, with SDSU putting an apple in Hawaii's defense, and turning it ever so often in this roasting.
The Aztecs' 52 points were their most since they plucked Portland State in 2007. The 14 points allowed were the fewest since Army managed only seven in the season's second week.
The Aztecs' wobbly defense didn't march in Saturday. Or Hawaii was so bad that it wouldn't have mattered.
What did matter was Rocky's players getting a win. And, of course, thousands of extra SDSU fans seeing the rockets' red glare.

Published: Friday June 14, 2013 MYT 7:13:00 AM
ARDMORE, Pennsylvania: Phil Mickelson played the first round of the US Open on Thursday at Merion on only three hours of sleep after a cross-country flight so he could see daughter Amanda's eighth-grade graduation.
Battling exhaustion and a formidable course, Mickelson fired a three-under par 67 - his lowest US Open first round since 1999 - to seize the early lead at a long-sought major where he has settled for second a record five times.
"Yeah, it might be abnormal, but it actually worked out really well," said Mickelson. "I got all my work done on Merion when I was here a week and a half ago. I knew exactly how I wanted to play the golf course."
Mickelson, an American left-hander who turns 43 on Sunday and the clear fan favorite in cheers, departed Merion on Monday for his Southern California home and spent two days sharpening his game on his personal practice area.
"I didn't feel I needed more time at Merion. What I needed was to get my game sharp," he said. "And having a nice practice facility and nice weather for the last couple of days allowed me to do that."
Mickelson, a three-time Masters champion who also won the PGA Championship in 2005, was the US Open runner-up in 1999, 2002, 2004, 2006 and 2009 but hopes to finally collect that trophy on Father's Day.
"If I never get that win, it would be a bit heartbreaking," Mickelson admitted.
Being with his daughter was as important as preparing for the Open to Mickelson.
"Really proud of her. She did a great job. I was really glad I was there," Mickelson said.
"She told me, 'It's fine. Stay. It's the US Open, I know how much you care about it.' And I told her that I want to be there. I don't want to miss that. I don't want to miss her speech.
I don't want to miss her graduation. She has worked very hard and I'm very proud of her."
The last time Mickelson started a US Open this well, 14 years ago at Pinehurst, he was awaiting a potential pager call that would have sent him walking off the course to attend Amanda's birth.
The call never came but Amanda did the next day, with Mickelson there after finishing second to the late Payne Stewart.
Mickelson tried to say his cross-country flight wasn't unusual but he had only done it before for corporate outings and he wasn't planning on doing it again before round two, saying, "I don't want to push it, no."
Mickelson caught a flight at 11 p.m. Merion time, landed two hours before arriving at the course 94 minutes before his 7:11 a.m. tee time. He also napped for an hour during a 3 1/2-hour storm interruption.
"I feel great," he said. "I'll just go back tonight and rest, and I'll have all day tomorrow to rest and it's fine. It shouldn't be a problem."
Mickelson opened with a bogey at the par-4 11th, used as a starting hole due to Merion's layout, but rallied with birdies at the par-3 13th, the first and seventh and a 30-foot birdie putt at the par-3 ninth to take the lead.
"It was as good a putt from 30 feet as I could have," Mickelson said. "The odds aren't good, but it rolled in and felt great."
At the ninth tee, Mickelson had admitted to caddie Jim Mackay he was fading.
"I told Bones on nine tee box that I kind of hit a wall. And he said, 'Well, let's just take a little mental break as we walk down there.' And I ended up making the putt. So being able to tune in and tune out was kind of nice the last hole or two.
"Lefty" began to fade before he began his birdie run on the first nine.
"I might have used just a little caffeine booster at the turn, just to keep me sharp," he said. "I just wanted to make sure I had enough energy."
Mickelson warned the course was only going to get tougher as dry weather arrives through the weekend.
"This was as easy as this golf course is going to play," he said. "We had the best opportunity to score low. And we are all struggling because it's such a penalizing golf course.
"It's a course that's withstood the test of time and it's challenging the best players in the world." -AFP

Russell Johnson, The Professor on Gilligan's Island, dies at 89
Published on Jan 17, 2014 6:37 AM
(REUTERS) - Russell Johnson, the veteran character actor who appeared in science fiction films and Westerns before earning enduring fame as The Professor on the classic 1960s sitcom Gilligan's Island, died on Thursday at the age of 89, his agent said.
"He died at 5.21am of natural causes at home in Washington state," agent Michael Eisenstadt said, adding that Johnson's wife and his daughter were at his side.
"Gilligan's Island", which was created by producer Sherwood Schwartz, ran for three seasons on the CBS network, from 1964 to 1967, and attracted even more popularity in syndication.
The show followed four men and three women stranded on a tropical island after being shipwrecked on the S.S. Minnow.

As a Scarlet Knight, an alumnus of Rutgers University, the State University of the State of New Jersey (our official name, by the way), I guess I am pleased�the days of�the�underclassmen on the Division One sports teams, scholar-athletes all I'm sure, who�toil on the field of folly at High Point Solutions Stadium�or the hardwood court of the RAC�in Piscataway to the delight of corporate patrons and sponsors and perhaps an occasional fellow-student�as�members of the Big East conference�are drawing to a close.
That the Big Ten, their intended new affiliation,�which is actually twelve schools will then be the Big Fourteen without changing their name, apparently, and with no trace of irony is almost as remakable to me as the importance all of this crap seemingly has taken on. That all we're doing is changing the East to ten, or maybe twelve, or evern fourteen, disquiets me; maybe we're putting too much emphasis on Big. And all these numbers makes me wish we'd adopted�the binary vice�base ten numbering system. Take that IKO IKO.
"The purpose of an education," said 'Fast' Eddie, actually Dr. Edward Bloustein, who became the University President in the spring of 1971 addressing us freshman, the class of '74, on the green at the Voorhees Mall of the New Brunswick campus as he introduced himself, "is to learn the rules of the game better than anyone else so you can change the rules."
I guess we can treat the introductions as read now and hope the lessons have been learned because the books have been burned. We're poised to move on and become�the finest college campus for, by and of professional athletes in the Western Hemisphere. And if nobody on any of the teams can read a word of the professional contract we all hope they will land, well, that's why God invented community colleges, innit?
If you can't make everyone�smarter, make everyone�dumber. It's probably easier, definitely cheaper and and it'll all even out in the end, assuming we're here to see it. No need to�raise the Route 27 Bridge, just lower the Raritan. And, no pressure, but if you don't take the Pitt Panthers apart today, you might want to investigate�on-line college classes.

I put in the searchbox "headband" is this is the one that came up. The cute pattern caught my eye so I thought why not? I just got it today and already wore it. It is snug and soft which is perfect to keep back frizzy hair (which is what I have) it is great for working out, or I will probably just wear it with a hoody and jeans if I feel like it. For a girl who is known to always wear headbands, this is a great purchase and definitely one of my new favorites! I got the coral and it is a very pretty pink color.

From Our Editors
The dinner menu at Corfu is packed with traditional dishes that are classic and polite enough to carry out to meet the parents. A Greek coffee ($1.95) and an appetizer of dolmades (stuffed grape leaves, $3.95) or cheese boreg (pan-fried cheese turnover, $5.95) lay down a proper foundation to support a mealtime skyscraper. Follow the appetite whetters with traditional souvlaki, a filet mignon kebab marinated and flame-broiled with vegetables ($17.95), or moussaka (eggplant casserole, $11.95), or dip into the briny blue with the ahi tuna ($18.95). An after-dinner drink such as cappuccino (single $2.95, double $3.95) or caf? mocha ($3.25, $4.25) paired with one of the fresh dessert pastries (made daily, ask your server for pricing) closes the book on a meal with authority, staring lesser poets in the eye and daring them to steal a few flavorful lines.

Lori O'Neill surprised herself when she kissed her late husband's brother. Maybe it was pregnancy hormones, but this mother-to-be was looking at Carson in a whole new light. Carson had been there for Lori ever since she'd lost her husband, but, as her due date drew near, Lori suddenly wanted more than just a shoulder to lean on. She wanted to confess how special he was to her--and how his presence alone gave her goose bumps. She had one chance left to give her child the perfect father--but was Carson ready to be Lori's husband?

|Kelly signs contract extension at Notre Dame
|Written by Admin

Athletic director Jack Swarbrick said the school would not provide any details of the contract, but said he was excited that Kelly would continue to lead the football program. Swarbrick said Kelly has ``fundamentally changed'' and restored the Notre Dame program.
Kelly had said four weeks ago that a new deal was ``imminent.'' Swarbrick had announced in January after Kelly led the Irish to a 12-0 record and the national championship game against Alabama that the school was working on a contract extension. Kelly interviewed for the Philadelphia Eagles job the day after the BCS game in January.

Walter Pater
Pater, Walter Horatio
Walter Horatio Pater (pā´tər), 1839–94, English essayist and critic. In 1864 he was elected a fellow of Brasenose College, Oxford, and he subsequently led an austere and uneventful life. An exemplar of Victorian aestheticism and a proponent of the doctrine of
"art for art's sake,"
Pater believed that the ideal life consisted of cultivating an appreciation for the beautiful and the profound. His first work, Studies in the History of the Renaissance (1873), established his reputation. Then followed his masterpiece, Marius the Epicurean (1885), a study of the intellectual and spiritual development of a young Roman in the time of Marcus Aurelius. His other works include Imaginary Portraits (1887); Appreciations (1889); Plato and Platonism (1893); The Child in the House (1894); and two posthumous publications, Greek Studies (1895) and Gaston de Latour (1896). His style is noted for its precision, subtlety, and refinement.
See biography by T. Wright (2 vol., 1907; repr. 1969); critical biography by D. Donoghue (1995); studies by R. Crinkley (1970), F. C. McGrath (1986), and C. Williams (1990).

HUNTSVILLE, Texas It was not the beginning HBU was hoping for, but it was a beginning nonetheless and Huskies football is now a reality.
Fourth-ranked and national runner-up the past two seasons Sam Houston State handed HBU a 74-0 defeat in the Huskies first game in program history Saturday night at Bowers Stadium.
While we made a lot of mistakes and things you and would liked to have thought we were capable of playing better, you really can t put into context just how young we are and just how big of an opportunity this was to grow our program, HBU head coach Vic Shealy said. I m confident even though this was a tough game this was good for our program, in the sense we will narrow the gap between us and the rest of the conference a year from now, having played this game.
Freshman running back B.J. Kelly gained 53 yards on 13 attempts for the Huskies (0-1), while freshman quarterback Ka Darius Baker completed 6-of-15 passes for 33 yards and an interception. Sophomore wide receiver Trey Sudds caught one pass for 20 yards, while freshman Wesley Lewis caught two for 15 yards. Freshman safety Cody Moncure led HBU with 11 tackles, while Taylor Thompson added nine and Terrell Brown and Garrett Dolan had seven each.
We know we came in expecting a hard game, so we take away we have a lot to improve on, Baker said. I hope everyone sees the film and sees what they need to do to improve on the things they see they did wrong and work hard to get better.
We definitely picked up the speed of college football and we have a lot to learn, Kelly said. It was fun coming out with new guys and a new program, and it showed us where we can go.
Sam Houston State piled up 370 yards on the ground for the game. Steven Hicks rushed 17 times for 99 yards and a touchdown, while Richard Sincere had three carries for 64 yards for the Bearkats (1-0). Tim Flanders rushed nine times for 52 yards and a score, while Cory Idlebird had six carries for 51 yards. Brian Bell completed 5-of-9 passes for 90 yards and a pair of touchdowns.
Torrance Williams made two receptions for 72 yards and a touchdown for the Bearkats.
In the first quarter, SHSU opened the scoring as Flanders scored a four-yard touchdown with 11:27 left. Keshawn Hill added a four-yard touchdown run of his own to put the Bearkats ahead, 14-0, with 8:58 to go. Bell hooked up with Torrance Williams for a 66-yard touchdown pass with 6:19 left.
The Bearkats went up 28-0 when Josh Lyons made an eight-yard reception out of the backfield for a score with 13:12 left in the second quarter. Shelby Davis intercepted a pass by Fleming and returned it 48 yards for a touchdown to give SHSU a 35-0 lead with 11:38 remaining in the half. Bell kept the ball on an option and ran two yards to put the Bearkats ahead, 42-0, with 6:28 to go.
Steven Hicks scored on a rush from four yards out as SHSU took a 49-0 lead at the half.
SHSU got on the board in the second half on Luc Swimberghe s 48-yard field goal to take a 52-0 lead with 10:44 left. The Bearkats quickly scored again when Tristan Eche intercepted a Baker pass and returned it 25 yards for a touchdown. Don King III added a three-yard run for a score with 4:03 remaining. The Bearkats added a safety and Cory Idlebird had a three-yard touchdown run with 3:58 to go in the game.
Sam Houston State and HBU will be Southland Conference rivals when the Huskies officially begin FCS play next season. The two teams are tentatively slated to face off Nov. 15, 2014, in Houston.
The Huskies return to action when they travel to face Wayland Baptist Saturday, Sept. 14 at 6 p.m. in Plainview, Texas.

Engaging Foreign Audiences:
Assessment of Public Diplomacy Platforms Could Help Improve State Department Plans to Expand Engagement
GAO-10-767: Published: Jul 21, 2010. Publicly Released: Jul 21, 2010.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-4268
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Following budget cuts and attacks against U.S. embassies in the 1990s, the Department of State (State) began to close some public diplomacy facilities, such as American libraries, and move others onto secure embassy compounds. As a result, the number of visitors to these facilities declined and face-to-face interaction with foreign publics became more difficult. To improve its engagement with foreign audiences, State's new public diplomacy strategic framework calls for expanding outreach platforms. GAO was asked to (1) describe the outreach platforms State uses overseas, (2) examine the challenges and opportunities related to these platforms, (3) review State's plans for these platforms, and (4) assess the extent to which State has evaluated these platforms. GAO analyzed State's public diplomacy framework and planning documents; interviewed State officials; and conducted fieldwork in Brazil, China, and Indonesia. We selected these locations based on the mix of existing and planned platforms.
State utilizes a broad range of venues, both physical and virtual--referred to in this report as outreach platforms--to engage foreign audiences outside of embassy compounds overseas. These platforms include facilities in leased commercial space staffed by American diplomats, such as American Centers, which offer libraries and meeting space. They also include partnerships with other institutions, such as Binational Centers, which are autonomous organizations that conduct a range of activities, usually including English- language teaching, and American Corners, which are typically collections of American materials and programming spaces within a host institution. State also manages virtual outreach platforms, such as Virtual Presence Posts and social media, including Facebook pages, to engage foreign audiences. While State faces several challenges related to these outreach platforms, both U.S. and foreign officials have identified opportunities for using them to increase engagement with foreign audiences. Policies designed to safeguard U.S. personnel and facilities overseas have led to the relocation of embassies and their outreach platforms to sites outside of city centers, hindering their use. Additionally, technical and staffing issues pose challenges to the current use of social media, and host country restrictions can affect State's ability to expand its outreach platforms. U.S. and foreign public diplomacy officials have identified opportunities for using outreach platforms to engage audiences abroad, such as increased language teaching and working with nongovernmental partners. State's new strategic framework for public diplomacy calls for opening more publicly accessible platforms overall, and its plans for specific platforms vary. Following the issuance of the framework in February 2010, State convened eight working groups to examine the issues outlined therein, including one on outreach platforms. As of June 2010, the Office of the Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs was analyzing and prioritizing the working groups' recommendations. State's plans pertaining to individual platforms vary. While State plans to expand some platforms, it has postponed the establishment of others. The Under Secretary has also promoted various pilot projects for increasing engagement with foreign public audiences through new platforms, such as a space in a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia. Although State plans to expand its use of outreach platforms, it lacks information that would enable it to assess the effectiveness of these platforms. State has developed several tools to collect data on public diplomacy activities, including descriptions of events and audiences reached, but these tools do not include all outreach platforms. State has acknowledged the importance of using evaluations to inform resource allocation decisions, yet it has not evaluated the extent to which outreach platforms contribute to expanding engagement. The lack of such information limits State's ability to adjust its plans or reallocate resources toward activities that offer a greater likelihood of success. To improve plans for using and expanding Department of State outreach platforms, GAO recommends that the Secretary of State conduct an assessment of the relative effectiveness of each of State's overseas outreach platforms, such as by measuring how each platform has expanded engagement with foreign audiences. State concurred with GAO's recommendation.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: In a September 2010 letter to Congressional oversight committees, the Department of State said it recognized the importance of maintaining publicly accessible platforms to promote increased engagement with foreign public audiences and concurred with this recommendation. In response, State conducted an evaluation of American Centers in order to better understand how these Centers engage foreign audiences. While this evaluation, issued in 2014, is a positive step, it covered only one of the six outreach platforms discussed in the GAO report. As GAO's report noted, a more comprehensive, departmentwide assessment of all overseas outreach platforms would help policy makers make an accurate assessment of the relative benefits of each type of platform and effectively allocate scarce resources, especially in light of the wide disparities in the costs of these platforms. As of July 2014, State had not conducted such a departmentwide assessment.
Recommendation: To help ensure that plans for using and expanding State's outreach platforms are informed by data on the extent to which each type of outreach platform supports public diplomacy goals, the Secretary of State should conduct a departmentwide assessment of the effectiveness of State's overseas outreach platforms, such as by measuring how each platform has expanded engagement with foreign audiences.

Claude Julien: Andrew Ference not yet a game-time decision, Tuukka Rask 'has a temper'
|11.16.11 at 1:33 pm ET
WILMINGTON — After practicing for the first time since his lower-body injury, Bruins defenseman said that he is "still day-to-day," but the Bruins doubt he will play Thursday against the Blue Jackets.
"I don't think we're even at that stage yet for Andrew where it's a game-time decision," Claude Julien said. "I don't even know if he's been assessed well enough to make that comment, but maybe that will change tomorrow morning."
Perhaps the most interesting moment of Wednesday's practice came when an enraged Tuukka Rask banged his stick on the cross-bar four times and threw his stick through the door and off the ice following a goal from Patrice Bergeron's line.
"Tuukka has a temper," Julien said. "It's not the first time he's exhibited that. He gets mad and he's competitive. It's never a bad thing as long as it's for the right reasons."

13-year-old complained of giddiness after having malaria medicines
A 13-year-old boy fell to death while playing on the terrace of a three-storey house on Kalmandapam Road, Royapuram on Saturday evening. Relatives said he was suffering from malaria and had complained of giddiness after medication. This could have caused the accident.
Royapuram police sources identified the deceased as Prem Sai, a class VIII student at a private school in Royapuram. Sai was the second child of Rajendran, a supplier at an eatery in Washermenpet, and Angammal, who live in a small rented house on the second floor in Kalmandapam Road.
"Prem Sai was at home for the past couple of days as he was suffering from malaria and was under treatment. He often played alone on the terrace which has a parapet wall that is only 2.5 feet high. He was left unnoticed as his mother had gone out of station on Saturday," the victim's uncle Jayaram told The Hindu.
The boy allegedly slipped and fell to the ground through a cramped space between two buildings. His relatives and neighbours picked up the severely injured Sai and rushed him to a private hospital.
He was later admitted to the Government Stanley Hospital and succumbed to his injuries on Saturday night, Mr. Jayaram added.
A Royapuram police team carried out a preliminary probe and registered a case of unnatural death.
Following a post-mortem on Sunday morning, Sai's body was handed over to his family members in the afternoon following which the last rites took place, police sources added.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 11/19/14
Relief pitcher Bobby Parnell and the New York Mets have avoided salary arbitration, agreeing to a one-year contract worth $1.7 million. The deal was completed Thursday. Parnell has been a key member of New York's bullpen the past few years. He led the team with 74 appearances last season, going 5-4 with a 2.49 ERA and seven saves. The hard-throwing righty had 61 strikeouts and 20 walks in 68 2-3 innings. Parnell made $504,000 last season, when he fell just short in service time of being eligible for arbitration. He's been effective as a setup man, but hasn't been able to lock down the closer job despite several opportunities with the Mets. A pair of New York players remain in arbitration: first baseman Ike Davis and second baseman Daniel Murphy.

This home is not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow.
A Zestimate® home valuation is Zillow's estimated market value. It is not an appraisal. Use it as a starting point to determine a home's value. Learn more
Where's the Zestimate?
County transactional data for this home is insufficient so we cannot calculate a Zestimate. We are adding data all the time, so be sure to come back.
Tax Assessor's Value
Depending on the jurisdiction where you live, this value could be the tax assessed, tax appraised, or market assessed value. This value comes from the taxing authority of the city, county or state where you live; this is not Zillow's value.
Note: Tax assessor's values differ from Zillow's Zestimate, which is computed by entering numerous data points into a proprietary formula, often resulting in a more accurate value estimate.

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
Consider: If Tennessee Williams's script for Joseph Losey's 1968 turkey Boom! (an adaptation of his play The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore) saw the light of day, just how bad must a Williams screenplay unproduced for decades be? Actress Jodie Markell, directing her first feature after an earlier foray into Southern Gothic territory with her 1998 short of Eudora Welty's Why I Live at the P.O., is not allergic to dust and mold, apparently. In 1920s Mississippi, Bryce Dallas Howard as unbalanced heiress Fisher Willow struggles to sustain a credible Dixie accent while delivering lines steeped in the excesses of bonkers belle-dom: "I'm not going to crack up again! I must be with people who do things." She rents out Jimmy (Chris Evans, almost as catatonic as his character's mother, locked up in the loony bin), the son of a worker at her father's plantation, to escort her to Memphis parties, where she will be humiliated by weird twins but find life's answers from bedridden, opium-addicted Ellen Burstyn. If Markell's instincts for script exhumation are questionable, she's the victim of even worse timing: Who thought releasing her film 10 days after Liv Ullmann and Cate Blanchett's praised-to-the-high-heavens A Streetcar Named Desire closed was a good idea?

Maybe instead of just using the foundy of which there are quite a few really good KDF missons why not also change the pvp so Fed vs Fed is no longer possible. This might encourage more players to play Klingon faction which will result in more content being developed because the numbers of the KDF have increased. I am not trying to flame or get banned but I think it might help to balence the population a little. I know this will probably get me a warning or a ban but this is the first MMO that I have ever played where the content for one faction was so blatently lacking and isn't pvp supposed to be against another faction not your own?
Originally, PvP was set to be Federation versus Klingon. This was changed during play and it's highly doubtful that the decision would be changed (or, changed back, as it were).
Thanks for you input.

Most of the Augusta County fire and rescue positions created last year with $2.2 million in federal grant money are likely to be made permanent.
Last year, the county received emergency services funding from the Department of Homeland Security to add paid staff to assist the dwindling volunteer ranks at many of the county's rural fire departments.
However, that grant money covers just two years. Although Augusta County could apply to have it renewed or to have positions extended with federal money, members of the Board of Supervisors hoped to evaluate during the second year of the grant ...

The Mobile Register's Bill Barrow reports that Congressman Gephardt "made a stop in Mobile this week to collect campaign cash at a $1,000-per-person luncheon at the downtown law firm of Gardner Middlebrooks Gibbons Kittrell & Olsen." LINK
"The Monday afternoon fund-raiser, drew about 15 people, according to those in attendance. It was the second fund-raising trip to Alabama this year for the veteran congressman … "
"Gephardt is expected to attend a fund-raiser today in Oklahoma City hosted by local attorney Mike Lawter," reports the Norman Transcript's Sean Murphy. LINK Congressman Gephardt will be interviewed on NHPR's "The Exchange" tomorrow morning at 9.
This Blog post by DFA's Mathew Gross makes for interesting insider-y reading. LINK
The Caledonian-Record of St. Johnsbury, Vermont has endorsed Dr. Dean. LINK
Mike Glover explains Dean's appeal to his Iowa audience. LINK
Not because we're on a quest to prove Mickey Kaus's theory that the press tears down the idols it creates, we'll print some excerpts from a column by a conservative writer who isn't keen on Dean:
"On leaving office this year, Howard Dean sealed his gubernatorial papers for 10 years — almost twice as long as his two predecessors, but considerably less than the 20-year-lock he sought — determining himself, with his lawyers, what was covered by executive privilege." LINK "Well, at least he's up-front about things — or is he? Having supported Vermont's divisive civil union law, which confers the legal rights of husbands and wives onto homosexual couples — 'in many ways,' he said, 'the most important event in my political life" — he signed the controversial legislation behind closed doors. Why?"
"And speaking of controversial issues, is the Democratic Party ready to unite behind a leader who, as a med student, performed his OB-GYN rotation at a Planned Parenthood clinic? Vermont magazine reported on this in 1998, adding: 'While he has never performed an abortion himself, he is strongly pro-choice and certainly understands the medical procedures involved.' Which must rate as the medical equivalent of not inhaling."
"Dean's loudest claim to gubernatorial fame is to have provided "free" health care to some large swath of Vermont's 600,000 citizens while simultaneously balancing the state budget. Is this for real? As of 1998, Vermont had the third highest percentage of Medicaid recipients in the Union (while next-door New Hampshire ranked 50). This indicates that Vermont's state-provided health care comes, in large part, courtesy Washington, D.C. How can Dean take credit for state-provided health care when, in fact, the lion's share is funded by federal taxpayers in other states? And how does such a scheme work on the national level?"
"As governor, Dean raided special funds to even out budget shortfalls: Is that balancing the budget? And how can Dean blame President Bush's recent tax cuts for rising property taxes when, for the past decade-plus, he governed a state with one of the highest state and local tax burdens in the nation? Corporations have left Vermont; farm revenues are down; logging and manufacturing jobs have disappeared. Maybe the only sector to thrive in the Dean years is the public sector: why? Indeed, what exactly does the Vermont economy consist of minus federal funds and pork? How well does such a record bode for the national economy?"

Ranging from everyday scenesters to emerging punklebrities (Kyp Malone of TV on the Radio), Afro-Punk proves appropriately spiky. "When I was a kid, I was convinced that white people were cool," laughs the first interviewee. Another claims that the music grows out of a "mostly white experience," and many others attest to having been the lone African American students in suburban schools. (Proposed post-screening discussion question: Compare black punks with white B-boys.) But the remainder of the doc complicates these matters, layering alienation within alienation, with shared stories of clueless white-punk ignorance and some reports of uneasy relationships with fellow black punks, not to mention the hip-hop 'hood. "A lot of black people," says one of Spooner's subjects, "have tunnel vision of what black can be," while another confidently states that "black people plus punk rock equals me."
Spooner examines the past in greater detail in his "Afro-Punk Weekend" program for BAM. An early British precursor is honored in a mini-tribute to Don Letts, the dreadlocked DJ and film director who documented the early U.K. moment, but most of the selections are less punk per se than politically volatile revivals that Afro-punks themselves would love. These range from Agnés Varda's Black Panthers (1967), a cinephile treat and illuminating vérité recording of the political party's rally to support Huey P. Newton, to Horace Ové's beautifully rough-hewn rarity Pressure (1975). The first British feature from a black director, Ové's film could be seen as ancestor to both Wild Style's neorealist tactics and Do the Right Thing's explosive agitpop, set to a tight Brixton-Caribbean groove.
