The two-lane route in Harwood has all the markings of a classic country road. That is, until the daily caravan of 18-wheel trucks arrives.
Over the past year, residents say, the daily truck traffic to and from a rubble landfill in the South County community has turned the serpentine road into something more like the New Jersey Turnpike. Worse, they say, many of those trucks are dumping from out of state.

The Hozomeen Lake Trail leads three and a half miles one way from the Hozomeen Campground to the lake. The trail gains a total of 500 feet as it leads through gently rolling terrain east of Ross Lake. The lake lies at 2,820 feet.
Begin this hike from the Hozomeen Campground, which lies in the northernmost portions of the park on the eastern shore of Ross Lake. The trail leads eastward from the camping area, following Hozomeen Creek for the first mile. The trail bears right (south) and leaves the creek to follow the eastern base of a ridge line that follows the shore of Ross Lake.
The trail continues along the base of the ridge for two miles to a trail junction. At this junction the trail to Hozomeen Lake bears left. The right side of the fork leads past Willow Lake to Lightning Creek. Hozomeen Lake lies approximately three quarters of a mile east of this junction. There are primitive camping sites on the southeastern shore of the lake. Permits are required to use these sites.
Directions: From Hope, British Columbia, Exit Highway 1 west of Hope at exit number 168 leading toward FloodHope Road and Silver Hope Creek. Turn right on to Silver-Skagit Road and look for signs for Hozomeen Campground. After passing the Ross Lake Campground bear left to enter the Ross Lake National Recreation Area.

Moyes ignoring Shinji's qualities
Creativity in the final third has been an undoubted issue for Manchester United this season and David Moyes knew it would be a problem – their disastrous deadline day blunders illustrate their concerns.
However, Shinji Kagawa continues to be overlooked for selection by Sir Alex Ferguson's successor, despite possessing considerable creative skills going forward. May are baffled as to why the Japan international has not been given his chance and the continued exclusion of him could end up being a damaging decision by the new Old Trafford boss.

Katniss has always been confused by her feelings for Gale, though she used to insist she didn't think of him as more than a friend. She knows that her romance with Peeta must upset Gale, but she is still shocked when Gale kisses her in the woods after she returns home from the Games. However, when Gale tells Katniss that he loves her, she does not know how to react, and their relationship suffers significantly as a result. Katniss realizes Gale is brave and selfless, while she has been a coward who wants to run away from everything and leave everyone behind. Despite their damaged friendship, he is the only one who is able to reach Katniss at the end of the novel when she is too broken, angry, and sad to speak to anyone.

The National Research Development Corporation, part of the British Technology Group, proposes using handwriting recognition to make smart cards, a form of 'intelligent' credit card, more secure (British patent application 2 235 802).
A smart card has a computer memory and a processor chip built in. The card can record transactions and authorise immediate transfer of bank funds.
The NRDC patent application, which names John Parks as inventor, uses the owner's signature, rather than the personal identification number used for normal credit cards, for authorisation. But the card does not carry any visible signature which could be copied and forged.
When the owner first gets the card, they sign it with a pointed stylus. An electrically sensitive grid inside the card registers the shape of the signature and the speed at which it is written.
When a transaction is made, the bank or shop puts the card in a reader ...

Rajan used to compose the melodies and set the notations for the orchestra. nagendra used to dictate the lyrics and tune of the song to the singers.
The lyricists who wrote unforgettable lyrics for them are late Hunasur Krishna Murthy, Uday Shankar,Vijiya Narasimha, Geetha Priya, Dodda Range Gowda, Vyasa Rao and manny more. The prominent Telugu lyricists are Narayana Reddy, Dasarathi and late Vetoori Sundarama Murthy and many others. The most prominent Tamil lyricists are late Kanna Dasan and many more.
The main male vocalists who enriched the melody of their songs are late Gantasala, Kala Govindarajan, P.B.Srinivas, late Kishore Kumar, Balasubramanyam, Jesudas, Rajesh Krishna and many more. The popular female vocalists are Bala Saraswati, Soolamangalam sisters, P.Leela, S.Janaki, Vaani Jayaram, Rani, L.R.Easwari, P.Susheela, Jikki, Chitra and many more.
Their first award film in Kannada was "Eradu Kanasu" in 1973-74 and "Parasangada Gende Thimma" in 1978-79, they were the first recipient of best music director award for the Telugu film "Panthulamma" in 1979 and many more awards from private and public associations such as south Indian film fans association, Chitra Rasikara Sangha, Karnataka films directors association, Kannada chalana chitra pathra karthara sanga, Madras Telugu academy, ugadi puraskara award, Abhinandana film awards Hydrabad kalasagar, Madras etc., Throughout south India. Many of their films have celebrated hundred days and silver jubilees.
Naa Ninna Mareyalaare, Gandhada Gudi, Eradu Kanasu — these huge musical hits of the Kannada screen featured the music of Rajan-Nagendra. Their team was exceptionally good at composing cheerful love duets, although they did come up with a couple of sombre numbers like Baadi hoda balliyinda (P B Srinivas, Eradu Kanasu)
Rajan-Nagendra were in the same class as Hindi cinema's popular composing duo Shankar-Jaikishen. They excelled composing technically flawless and violin-rich orchestral interludes, and enjoyed an equally long innings in the industry.
They had a successful stint in Kannada film industry from early 50s till late 90s, but they started shining from 1973 with Gandhada Gudi songs becoming popular throughout Karnataka and dimmed in early 90s, when new generation music took over thus covering a span of two decades of lilting melodies that has been hugely popular till date in Karnataka and other states of South India.
Nagendra sang a couple of songs in his five-decade-long career. The most popular was Yaaru yaaru née yaaru for the comedian Narasimharaju. He also sang Nammoora santheli in the Jai Jagadish-Lakshmi starrer Gaalimaatu. Somehow his voice was typecast for comic scenes.
Hundreds of Rajan-Nagendra songs were sung by Legendary singers P.B.Sreenivas, S. Janaki, SPB. Almost all of them remain etched as the unforgettable melodies of Kannada Cinema. The Love songs of SPB-SJ-Rajan-Nagendra combination is considered to be heavenly. Such a everlasting haunting melodies Rajan-Nagendra pair created. The duo is also reported to have introduced another illustrious playback singer K. S. Chitra to the Kannada cinema back in the early 1980s.
Rajan-Nagendra made delightful songs in the Rajkumar-Lakshmi starrer Naa Ninna Mareyalaare and Eradu Kanasu, which starred Rajkumar, Manjula and Kalpana.
The pair directed music for about 400 films in Tamil, Telugu, Tulu and Sinhalese including 200 in Kannada.
Hombisilu, starring Vishnuvardhan, was another big hit. In the '80s, they made the music for some Telugu films, including Maa Intayana Katha, Puli Bebbuli and Vayyari Bhamalu Vagalamari Bharathulu. They composed the music for about 35 Telugu films.
Rajan-Nagendra also did a series of films starring Anant Nag, and Lakshmi, notable among them being Benkiya Bale and Chandanada Gombe etc.

Last I checked Obama does not have enough delegates to win the nomination. Perhaps you need a refresher on first grade math.

Come on Susan, just report the news and leave your opines to yourself!
There are plenty of jobs out there. Just check Yahoo Hot Jobs....and they are local jobs.

It's all about hustling and selling yourself and what value you can bring to a prospective employer.
You are spot on jvh, Susan clearly did not research the subject here and pulled a typical drive by media tactic. Me thinks Susan has never read the constitution nor the bills of rights. In summary, she is a journalistic hack for the LEFT.

Clergy Salaries: Market and Mission
Historically, clergy salaries have ranged anywhere from the clergy and laity shared all resources, to where clergy were land-holding nobility. Today the market-driven professional model predominates. This Methodist clergy salary study shows a strong correlation between church size and compensation. Clergy with a multi-point charge are compensated less than clergy with a single-point charge even when the total size of their respective parishes is the same.

'Rookie Blue' Season 4, Episode 5 recap: 'Poison Pill' tough for Andy to swallowAdd to Favorites | Rookie Blue
Just when you don't want to know someone any better, you end up quarantined together.
Such is the luck of Officer Andy McNally ( Missy Peregrym), who found herself forcibly isolated with her ex-love Sam Swarek's ( Ben Bass) current girlfriend -- Officer Marlo Cruz ( Rachael Ancheril) -- in Thursday's (July 18) ABC "Rookie Blue" episode "Poison Pill."
Uncomfortably partnered for the day and following a lead on a drug dealer, the women suddenly found themselves covered in heroin tainted with anthrax ... and stuck in the art gallery where they had collared the dealer, after he up-ended a table that sent the powder flying all over the two cops. 'Just another day at the office," as Swarek wryly summed it up.
In the course of being treated with antibiotics, McNally and alleged "ice queen" Cruz had plenty of time to hash things out. The initially confrontational tone changed, though, once Cruz confessed she was bipolar and "managing it" with medicine. Fearing she'd be suspended, demoted or fired, she asked Andy to keep her secret.
Bipolar disorder factored into the story in another way, with Dov ( Gregory Smith) suspecting Chloe ( Priscilla Faia) might have the condition -- which she angrily denied when he eventually confronted her about it -- after he spotted a pill box that actually was Cruz's.
Gail ( Charlotte Sullivan) used the drug case to volunteer for work with Detective Jacob Blackstone (recurring guest star Louis Ferreira, also of ABC's "Motive"), really hoping to learn the nature of her cop boyfriend Nick's ( Peter Mooney) dealings with Andy during their recent undercover mission. Realizing what she was after, Blackstone steered her back on a work path by advising her to "suck it up and get your head in the game."
The return-to-the-precinct hug that Gail later saw Nick give Andy did little to allay her worries, prompting her to seek out and pick up Blackstone at The Black Penny. Meanwhile, Andy shared with Traci ( Enuka Okuma) her new conclusion that Cruz is "not that bad. I wish she was."
And in the closing scene, Chris ( Travis Milne) took a presumably final look around 15 Division, his transfer to another city and police department having been finalized.
Things keep changing, indeed, for the officers of "Rookie Blue." And almost midway through Season 4, don't expect that to stop ... particularly since we now know there also will be a Season 5.

Participating in the official ribbon cutting at Friday's grand opening of Knight Nissan in Swift Current were: Steve Mitchell - Dealer operations Manager, Nissan Canada (LEFT) and Al Watkins - Fixed Operations Manager, Nissan Canada (RIGHT) along with Knight Nissan staff members (L to R) Joel Courchaine - General Manager, Storm Dafoe - Reception, Terry Martens - Sales Professional, Travis Sigmeth - Finance Manager and Dave Chan - Sales Manager.
Swift Current's Knight Nissan held a formal ribbon cutting ceremony last Friday during their grand opening weekend at their South Service Road location.
The formal ceremony was held as Swift Current's newest car dealership hosted their grand opening during a two-day celebration.
"We're super excited," admitted Knight Nissan General Manager Joel Courchaine. "I think Swift Current's been wanting more selection over the last few years, as we're expanding with more population you get more selection…just to be able to add to their selection it's so exciting. And to make it official today is perfect."
Courchaine said that bringing the Nissan name to the Southwest is a perfect market fit.
"They have the most SUVs in a brand," he noted. "You and I both know that we need four by four in the Southwest with the weather. It's the perfect brand to have, good quality, lots of new stuff coming down the pipe. So we're really excited to be working hand in hand with the Nissan brand."
They have also made an effort to have a wide vehicle inventory selection on their lot.
"We decided to make a splash," he admitted of their sizeable inventory. "It's important that when you go on the lot that you're able to actually pick the colour you want. We're big on selection. There should be no need to travel afar to get the vehicle you need. We made the investment. We're dedicated. And we've got the staff to back it up. But more importantly we've got the selection to back it up."
With a staff of approximately 15 people, Knight Nissan boasts both a full sales and service department. Plus, thanks to their dedicated staff, customers are dealing with knowledgable sales people who can answer their questions immediately.
"We've been talking about that lots lately. It's one thing to have the product, but it's another to be able to explain how it's going to work and how it's going to benefit you in your day to day driving."
Courchaine notes that Knight Nissan, located at 1420 South Service Rd. E., is ideally situated just off the TransCanada Highway.
"This location works out so perfect, right off the highway, easy to get to," he said.
He welcomes customers to visit their location to see the quality vehicles they offer.
"Nissan is full force in Canada and they're having their best year ever and the price is competitive," he said. "When people walk into the showroom they'll see why right away that it's nothing like it used to be."

Mustang MonthlyEvents
Mustang 50th Birthday Celebration - The Great American Cruises
Neither rain, snow, ice, nor the threat of tornado warnings could keep the long-haulers away from the Mustang 50th Birthday Celebrations
"Driving" is a relative term. For the majority of Mustang owners, it means commuting to work daily in a newer Mustang or weekend cruising in a vintage model. A few hardy souls even drive their older Mustangs on a daily basis. Others may only move their Mustang a few feet, like from the trailer to their spot for concours judging, while another group drives to the track, puts the pedal to the metal on a road course or quarter-mile, then bolts the street tires back on for the drive home.
Then there are the serious drivers who participate in long-distance cruises, like David Turnbull's Great American Pony Drives or Sam Haymart's Mustangs Across America. It's one thing to commute 15 or 20 minutes to work; it's totally different spending several days crossing this great country of ours while dealing with changing weather conditions, road construction, traffic, and inconsiderate non-enthusiast drivers. And while most Mustang long-haulers these days choose the comfort and reliability of newer models, we have the utmost respect for owners who make such long treks in their older Mustangs, which are prone to convertible top leaks in the rain, overheating, and bucket seats that were never designed for long-distance comfort.
To celebrate the Mustang's 50th Anniversary, both GAPD and MAA staged long-distance cruises last April, plus the Mustang Club of America hosted its own 50th Pony Drives from Norman, Oklahoma's 50th Kick-Off Party to the Mustang 50th Birthday Celebrations in Charlotte and Las Vegas. The GAPD herded Mustangs to Oklahoma for the start of the MCA Pony Drive, while Mustangs Across America made the longest haul of all from Los Angeles to Charlotte.
After spending four days and over 1,100 miles with the MCA's Pony Drive from Oklahoma to Charlotte, we have a new appreciation and admiration for anyone with the stamina to cruise long-distance. As Haymart explains, "Staying in a different hotel each night gives you an idea of what it must be like to be a rock star on tour!"
Resisting the temptation to drive our own '66 Mustang on the multi-state MCA ride, Pam and I accepted Ford's offer to supply a '14 Shelby GT 500 as part of Heacock Classic Insurance's participation in both the Charlotte and Las Vegas legs of the MCA's 50th Pony Drive. For some reason, 662 hp, A/C, and Recaro seats in a brand-new Mustang seemed a tad more tolerable, comfortable, and reliable than a 48-year-old GT hardtop that has barely left the city limits since its restoration two years ago (It's OK Donald, I would have picked the Shelby too!-Ed.).
We picked up our Ruby Red Shelby in Dallas and immediately discovered that 662 hp is useless in rush-hour and construction traffic. Not a good start for a five-day highway adventure. We eventually escaped the I-35 log-jam and tapped the speed control at 80 mph, which translated to a loafing 1,800 rpm for the Shelby's 5.8-liter supercharged DOHC powerplant. At the Oklahoma welcome area, an attendant spotted our GT 500 and mentioned that a long line of Mustangs had zoomed by a couple of hours earlier, a reference to the southeastern leg of Turnbull's Great American Pony Drive that was closing in on Norman after departing Jacksonville, Florida, a few days earlier.
As a pre-cursor to the MCA's Oklahoma Kick-off Party, Turnbull organized seven GAPD cruises from all corners of the country to Oklahoma. In all, the GAPD (not to be confused with the MCA's Pony Drives) delivered over 200 Mustangs to Norman—just so they could reload for the drive to Charlotte or Las Vegas!
By the time our Shelby rolled into Norman, Mustangs filled the parking lots at the NCED Hotel and Conference Center, a resort-style facility that serves as a training center for U.S. Post Office employees. Inside, the MCA set up a registration area and organized a Saturday night banquet, where Heacock Classic Insurance handed out cards with a phone number to call for free towing. We hoped that wasn't an omen.
On Sunday morning, we awoke to the rumbling of Mustangs coming alive before sunrise to line up at the rear of the hotel for the 9:00 a.m. start of the eastern Pony Drive. It was cool and windy when I ran downstairs to position our Heacock-sponsored Shelby near the front. By 8:30, the line of Mustangs stretched around the NCED facility, nearly 200 cars according to Trail Boss Turnbull, who had just completed his Great American Pony Drive to Norman before leading the stampede to Charlotte in his black '64½ convertible with nearly 400,000 miles on the odometer. The on-time departure took us along rural roads to I-40, where Mustangs filled our vision through the windshield and rearview mirror. We were on our way.
And so was a major storm front. It caught up with us just as we arrived in Fort Smith, Arkansas, for our lunch stop at Randall Ford, which had emptied its sales lot to make room for the Pony Drive Mustangs. Out came the umbrellas as Mustang owners scurried across the pavement to the dealership showroom for some Arkansas barbecue.
The big gob of yellow and red followed us on our smartphone's weather radar as we hit I-40 again for the day's last leg to Little Rock. I felt bad for the owners who had spent much of the previous evening cleaning their Mustangs. By the time we arrived at our Little Rock hotel, the rain and wind had picked up, pretty much canceling the best-laid plans for a cruise-in hosted by Central Mustangers of Arkansas at the Shackleford Crossing Shopping Center. When tornado warnings were issued, many Pony Drive participants elected to stay put at their hotels. That's how we learned that the Embassy Suites in Little Rock has great baby-back ribs!
The clouds stayed with us for Monday morning's chilly departure from Crain Ford but the rain stayed away long enough for our Mustang caravan to roll into Memphis, accompanied by a police escort to Beale Street, where Mustang Club of Memphis volunteers staged the Pony Drive cars in a lineup that ran the length of the famous street. By the time the last Mustang arrived, the lane was packed with Mustangs as owners scattered to the various restaurants for lunch. Our return to I-40 was greatly aided by the Memphis Police Department's motorcycle cops who braved a downpour as they escorted us out of town.

New speaker encourages music on the move
4 February 2009 — 5:00 PM
With a number of the latest phones coming equipped with music players and wireless connectivity, a new speaker system could be of interest to some.
Logitech announced the launch of its latest audio unit that can connect to devices from up to 33 feet away using Bluetooth Advanced Audio Distribution (A2DP) technology.
The manufacturer's Pure-Fi Mobile system also comes with integrated stereophonic sound and a call-answer feature.
Subrotah Biswas, Logitech's manager for India and southern Asia, said: "Millions of people now use a mobile phone to listen to music. If you're one of those people, now you can toss your earphones aside and pump up the volume."
He added the Pure-Fi was ideal for those who like to play their music outdoors, but was also great for "hanging out at home" with.
A2DP technology is incorporated into a number of the latest phones - including the Google Android-powered T Mobile G1.

Revenge Season 2, Episode 5, "Forgiveness" Spoiler Clip: Kara Wallace Clarke Makes a Surprise Visit to Grayson Manor! (VIDEO)
For someone who has spent the last 21 years on the down low, Kara Wallace Clarke certainly doesn't seem shy in this new episode of Revenge.
She pays her former nemesis, Victoria Grayson, a surprise visit, interrupting Vicki's mid-afternoon gardening. Similar to the Queen of England, you're not supposed to touch Victoria Grayson without permission, but apparently Kara doesn't know this rule.
Mama Clarke quickly goes in for a hug — a privilege typically reserved for Charlotte when she gets good grades — saying, "I'm so glad you're safe."
Girl, we know you're not glad! Vicki stole your husband, threw your pregnant faux-daughter off a balcony, and was connected to the death of your lover, the White-Haired Man.
So what's with the hug, and why is Victoria clutching those pruning shears so tightly? Watch the clip and tell us what you think below!
Revenge Season 2, Episode 5, "Forgiveness," airs on Sunday, Oct. 28 at 9 p.m. ET on ABC.

Do you think wearing on-body cameras on duty should be mandatory?
Nothing in recent history has compelled such emotional debate and constitutional controversy as the so-called Megan's Law. These laws require registration and community notification when a convicted sex offender moves into a neighborhood. Designed to protect children from manipulative and violent sex offenders, these laws have become involved in a controversy concerning possible constitutional rights violations.

S. Korean Puppet Defense Minister's Call for War Flailed
|Pyongyang, May 16 (KCNA) -- The puppet minister of National Defense during his recent visit to the command of the puppet 3rd field army openly called on "the troops to be combat ready to win the battle that may break out right now" while telling the fictitious story about "provocation by the north".
In another development, warmongers of the puppet military reinforced armed forces including warships in the waters along and near the illegal "Northern Limit Line" in the West Sea and formed "a unit on alert to go into action in a half hour" and deployed it on Yonphyong Islet, crying out for defending the line. They also staged a secret special warfare exercise by use of military planes.
On May 13 and 14 they staged a south Korea-U.S. "combined exercise for surprise air assault," kicking up war atmosphere.
A spokesman for the National Peace Committee of Korea in a statement issued Saturday said:
The anti-DPRK war cry again made by the warmongers of the puppet military and a reckless racket for a war kicked up by them are extremely dangerous military provocations prompted by its criminal design to launch a war of aggression against the north at any cost.
The reality goes to clearly prove that the Lee group is one of heinous war maniacs and anti-reunification traitors who seek to inflict the holocaust of a war on fellow countrymen, denying national unity, reunification and peace.
The group will get nothing but shameful ruin and death if it makes desperate efforts to escalate the confrontation with fellow countrymen and ignite a war of aggression against the DPRK quite contrary to the desire of the Koreans for peace and reunification of the country.
The Lee group had better stop its rash acts, clearly understanding what a miserable end those who disregard the desire of the times and the nation met.

Modified Mustangs & FordsHow To Chassis Suspension
Mustang & Fords Performance Suspension Guide - MMF Tech
Modified Mustangs & Fords' Guide To Performance Suspension Systems
Saleen Speedlab '05-'06 Mustang suspension kit
Saleen (www.saleen.com; (800) 888-8945), one of the very first companies to develop premium suspension systems for late-model Mustangs, has powered many Mustangs and Fords to the winner's circle over the years.
That expertise has been carried over from the racetrack to the street, and today Saleen's Speedlab division offers up its premium suspension kit for S197 Mustangs. This includes specially calibrated and tuned front struts and rear shocks, progressive-rate springs front and back, along with a replacement front sway bar. Installing this kit not only provides improved looks by dropping your Mustang 1 inch in front and 3/4 inch in the rear, but it noticeably improves the car's cornering ability, giving it a much lighter, more controllable character compared with the stock suspension. The Saleen kit is listed as PN 10-1300-A11503 and we found it listed for $799.99.
Tokico HP Suspension Kit for '87-'93 Mustangs
Having demonstrated the potential of its suspension equipment on cars such as the esteemed '01 Mustang Bullitt, Tokico (www.tokicousa.com; (562) 295-2500) now offers a wide range of upgrades for '87-to-present Mustangs. Fox aficionados might want to check out the company's HP suspension kit designed for the '87-'93 5-liter cars. The kit comes with front struts and rear shocks and a set of ultra-high-grade steel/alloy lowering springs and is a direct bolt-in for the factory hardware. The lowering springs reduce ride height by approximately 1 inch in the front and 3/4 inch in the rear.
Two packages are available, one with non-adjustable HP struts and shocks, and another with Tokico's Illumina five-way adjustable units, designed for more serious drivers who like to fine-tune their Mustang's shock valving to suit their particular driving style, along with road conditions. Both kits carry a limited lifetime warranty and will noticeably improve the handling and poise of your 5-liter Mustang. We were able to find a list price for this kit of $414.95.
Tokico HP Suspension Kit for '89-'97 Thunderbirds
When introduced, the MN12-chassis Thunderbird was a smooth-riding and well-handling car. However, now that the youngest specimens are more than 10 years old, the suspension could probably use an upgrade.
Tokico's HP suspension package, designed specifically for these cars, can help. It includes a set of four premium lowering springs (made from chrome silicon spring alloy that are heat-treated and shot-peened) which drop the car by 1.25 inches front and rear, to lower the center of gravity and improve cornering, along with a set of Tokico HP gas-charged shocks, which are designed to ensure a compliant ride at lower speeds and deliver improved control and handling at medium to higher velocity.
The kit is designed to work in conjunction with larger-than-OEM wheel and tire combinations, which are popular on these cars. The kit will fit base Thunderbirds with the normally aspirated 3.8L V-6 engine, the 5.0L and 4.6L LX/Sport models, and the 3.8L supercharged Super Coupe. Listed as PN T38HPK221, the kit retails for $391.36.

A historian guides you through Pecos and the Forked Lightning Ranch of Hollywood star Greer Garson in one of the Southwest Explorations offered by Santa Fe Community College Continuing Education Program.
Need inspiration? The New Mexico Museum of Art is showing two exhibits to mark the 50th anniversary of the American studio glass movement: Chromatic Fusion, and Emerge 2012, both featuring artists from around the globe working in kiln-formed glass.
The Museum of Indian Arts and Culture is showing a rare, major exhibition of North American Indian baskets, each revealing a complex woven identity. And for a true smorgasbord of New Mexican craft, visit the 24th Winter Spanish Market, with six award-winning artist demonstrators, a storytelling and flute performance, a screening of award-winning films, and the Winter Nite preview party on November 30.
Don't forget the Last Friday Artwalk in the Railyard Arts District to get your contemporary-art fix. Or go to hear Iris Häussler, one of the artists exhibiting in SITE Santa Fe's More Real? exhibition, discuss her focus on conceptual- and installation-based practices.
Classical concerts dominate the musical offerings this month as symphonies and orchestras open their 2012-2013 season. Santa Fe Pro Musica presents its Fall Classic Concerto with pianist Per Tengstrand performing Beethoven. The Santa Fe Symphony presents Handel's Messiah; Canticum Novum Chamber Orchestra and Chorus focuses on neglected works from the 17th to 21st centuries; and conductor and Santa Fe Concert Association artistic director Joseph Illick presents The Life and Music of Debussy, with special guest soprano Gina Browning, as part of his continuing series of performance talks marked by candid humor and enlightening anecdotes.
In popular music, world-renowned acoustic guitarist Ottmar Liebert performs with Luna Negra in a benefit for Waldorf School at the Lensic Performing Arts Center. The hot Irish acoustic group Lunasa comes to Santa Fe, as does the popular Americana band Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band. And for an insider's peek into Santa Fe's music scene, check out the casual gigs at the new Gig Performance Space.
Also in entertainment this month is Mark St. Germain's hit drama Freud's Last Session, and the popular Thanksgiving tradition Circus Luminous, featuring performers from Wise Fool New Mexico. Another holiday favorite is The Nutcracker, with a cast of more than 60 in lavish sets and costumes from the Aspen Santa Fe Ballet.
Expand your knowledge of New Mexico with lectures such as "Whatever Happened to Cabeza de Vaca" at the Museum of Spanish Colonial Art; and "New Mexico Women: The Road to Statehood." Or enjoy German curator Hans Grunert's introduction to the New Mexico History Museum's exhibition Tall Tales of the Wild West: The Stories of Karl May.
At the Lensic Performing Arts Center, David Suzuki speaks on climate change; African-American poet Kevin Young talks with Colson Whitehead; and public radio station KANW presents An Evening with David Sedaris in a one-night appearance in Santa Fe.
Of course you'll also want to honor of Georgia O'Keeffe's 125th birthday, maybe by entering the flower photography competition, or at another event such as the free screening of Bone Wind Fire, a film that incorporates various thoughts and meditations of Georgia O'Keeffe, Emily Carr, and Frida Kahlo. Sharyn Rohlfsen Udall, author of the book that inspired the award-winning 30-minute film, will introduce the film.
The chefs of the Santa Fe School of Cooking will honor O'Keeffe with a three-hour demonstration class and birthday celebration meal. An illustrated talk by biographer and art historian Roxana Robinson explores how the artist's complex body of work illuminates her life. Jazz artist Karyn Allison will honor O'Keeffe with a special concert. And the whole family can wish the artist a happy birthday at the Free Family Birthday Party at the museum.

But that was before she met the children's guardian, Julius. Afterward, she realized that even common sense and a practical nature couldn't stop her from falling in love
with a man who didn't even know she existed!

BALTIMORE, MD (CAA) – Towson senior forward Jerrelle Benimon was selected as the Colonial Athletic Association men's basketball Player of the Year for the second consecutive season in voting by the league's head coaches, media relations directors and members of the media. The announcement was made Thursday night at the league's pre-tournament awards banquet in Baltimore, Md.
Also receiving top honors were Delaware's Monte' Ross as the CAA Coach of the Year, William and Mary freshman guard/forward Omar Prewitt as the CAA Rookie of the Year and Northeastern junior forward Scott Eatherton as the CAA Defensive Player of the Year. William and Mary senior forward Tim Rusthoven was the recipient of the Dean Ehlers Leadership Award.
Benimon becomes the eighth player in conference history to receive CAA Player of the Year honors in multiple years. The senior forward has recorded a nation's-best 20 double-doubles in 31 games and he also leads Division I in rebounding with 11.7 per contest. Benimon, who ranked fourth in the league in scoring with 18.9 points per game, reached double figures in 28 of 31 outings and tallied 20 or more points 17 times. He broke his own Towson season record with 363 rebounds, which was the fourth-most in a season in CAA history and the most by any CAA player other than Navy All-American David Robinson. Showing his all-around game, Benimon was also third in the conference in assists (3.7 apg), fourth in field goal percentage (52.8%) and fifth in blocked shots (1.3 bpg).
Ross guided Delaware its first CAA regular-season championship with a 14-2 mark. The Blue Hens reeled off 13 straight victories between January 1 and mid-February, and matched the best start in conference history with an 11-0 record. Delaware's 22 overall victories are tied for the fourth-highest total in school history and it's the most for the Blue Hens in more than a decade. He is first Delaware coach to be honored as CAA Coach of the Year.
Prewitt is just the third William & Mary player to receive Rookie of the Year honors and the first since 2004. The freshman guard/forward led all CAA rookies in scoring with 11.8 points per game and tallied double figures 19 of the Tribe's 29 contests. He was also second among all conference freshmen in rebounding with 4.7 per game. Prewitt ranked among the top 15 in the league in assists (1.9 apg/15th), free throw percentage (77.2%/4th), 3-point FG percentage (37.6%/7th) and 3-pointers per game (1.6/13th).
Eatherton is the second Northeastern player, and first since 2006, to garner CAA Defensive Player of the Year accolades. The junior forward led the league with 54 blocked shots and had 16 games with two or more rejections. Eatherton was also second in the CAA and 14th in the nation in rebounding with 10.1 per contest. He grabbed double-digit caroms in 19 of his 30 contests.
Rusthoven is the third William & Mary player in the past five years to receive the Ehlers Award, which is presented annually to the men's basketball student-athlete who "embodies the highest standards of leadership, integrity and sportsmanship in conjunction with his academic athletic achievement." Rusthoven ranked among the top 20 in the CAA in scoring (12.2 ppg/12th), rebounding (4.9 rpg/17th), field goal percentage (57.7%/1st) and blocked shots (21/11th). Earlier this year, he was one of 75 Division I men's basketball players nominated for the NABC Good Works Team, which honors student-athletes who have made significant contributions to the great good of their communities through volunteerism and civic service.
Joining Towson's Benimon on the All-CAA first team were Drexel senior guard Frantz Massenat, Delaware senior guard Devon Saddler, William & Mary junior guard Marcus Thornton and Delaware senior guard Davon Usher.
Massenat received first-team honors for the second time after leading the conference in assists (4.8 apg) and ranking seventh in scoring (17.4 ppg). He also topped the conference and was among the best in Division I in assist/turnover ratio. Massenat ranks sixth on Drexel's career scoring list with 1,627 points and his 546 career assists rank third all-time at Drexel and ninth in CAA history.
Saddler is a member of the All-CAA first team for the second year in a row. The senior guard led the nation and ranked 22nd in the nation in scoring with 20.2 ppg and was fourth in the league in assists (3.4 apg). Saddler is Delaware's all-time leading scorer with 2,154 points and ranks seventh on the CAA's career scoring chart. He scored double figures in 23 of his 24 games this season.
Thornton moves up to the first team after receiving second-team accolades last year. The junior guard was fifth in the CAA in scoring with 18.6 ppg and seventh in assists with 2.8 apg. He scored double digits in 26 of 29 contests. Thornton leads the CAA and ranks 25th nationally with 85 three-pointers. He's among the CAA's top 10 in field goal, free throw and 3-point percentage.
Usher earned a spot on the All-CAA first team in his first season at Delaware. The senior guard ranked third in the league in scoring with 19.4 ppg, which included 20 straight games in double figures to end the regular season. He also excelled in other phases of the game, leading the conference in steals (1.8 spg), ranking fourth in 3-pointers (74) and 11th in rebounding (6.0 rpg).
Earning second-team All-CAA honors were Northeastern's Eatherton (15.5 ppg/10.1 rpg), Drexel graduate student guard Chris Fouch (17.9 ppg/3.2 rpg), College of Charleston senior forward Willis Hall (12.2 ppg/9.0 rpg), William & Mary's Rusthoven (12.2 ppg/4.9 rpg) and Hofstra graduate student guard/forward Zeke Upshaw (19.6 ppg/4.2 rpg).
Named to the All-CAA third team were Delaware senior forward Carl Baptiste (10.9 ppg/8.3 rpg), James Madison sophomore guard Charles Cooke (14.3 ppg/5.0 rpg), Towson senior forward Marcus Damas (11.4 ppg/5.3 rpg), Towson senior forward/guard Rafriel Guthrie (12.0 ppg/2.9 rpg), James Madison sophomore guard Andre Nation (15.2 ppg/5.3 rpg) and Hofstra graduate student guard Dion Nesmith (13.2 ppg/4.3 apg).

BALTIMORE, MD (UNCW) — UNCW returns to the Colonial Athletic Association Men's Basketball Championship this season following a one-year hiatus due to APR sanctions. The Seahawks enter this week's event as the No. 9 seed after losing their final regular season game, 70-57, to top-seeded Delaware on Feb. 26, 2013 in Wilmington.
POST-SEASON HISTORY: UNCW is seeking its fifth berth to the NCAA Tournament following a Cinderella run to the Big Dance in 1999-2000, a national splash in the 2001-02 NCAA's, a near-upset of Maryland in the first round of the 2002-03 NCAA Tourney and a heartbreaking loss to George Washington in the 2005-06 event. The Seahawks have reached the post-season six times: NIT (1998), NCAA (2000), NIT (2001), NCAA (2002), NCAA (2003), NCAA (2006).
2013 CAA TOURNAMENT: The Seahawks did not compete in the 2013 CAA Championship due to APR sanctions. It marked the first time the Seahawks, a charter member of the league, had not competed in the season-ending tournament.
CAA HONOREES: Senior guard Tanner Milson and senior forward Shane Reybold were honored for their work in the classroom at Thursday night's post-season championship banquet. The pair was named to the CAA's All-Academic Team, joining eight other players on the list.
LAST CAA TOURNAMENT APPEARANCE: In their last appearance in the CAA Tournament, the Seahawks went 1-1 in the 2012 CAA Championship. UNCW defeated James Madison, 70-59, in a first-round matchup before falling, 59-47, to top-seeded Drexel.
CAA TOURNAMENT HISTORY: UNCW is making its 29th appearance in the CAA's post-season gala. Overall, the Seahawks have lost in the first round four times, been eliminated in the quarterfinals five times, advanced to the semifinals 18 times and reached the championship nine times.
TOURNAMENT SITES: UNCW has played a CAA Tournament game at four different venues through the years. The Seahawks stand 0-1 at William and Mary Hall, 1-0 at Trask Coliseum, 0-1 at the Patriot Center, 5-3 at the Hampton Coliseum and 26-19 at the Richmond Coliseum. Here's a look at the results by site.
SO LONG OLD FRIEND: In 23 visits to the cavernous Richmond Coliseum for the CAA Tournament, the Seahawks compiled a 26-19 mark. UNCW advanced to the semifinals 13 times and reached the championship game seven times at the arena.
NO. 9 SEED…AGAIN: UNCW is the No. 9 seed for the third time in its last four appearances The Seahawks have been the No. 1 seed five times (1998, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2006). Here's a look at UNCW's seedings by year:
ALL-TOURNAMENT PICKS: The Seahawks have featured 25 All-Tournament selections and four Tournament MVP's through the years at the CAA Championship. Brett Blizzard was named CAA Tournament MVP three times and All-CAA Tournament four times.
COACHES IN THE CAA TOURNEY: Brad Brownell registered an .818 winning percentage in 11 CAA Tournament games to lead UNCW's eight coaches who have directed teams in the event.
REGULAR SEASON HISTORY: The Seahawks, predicted to finish eighth in the CAA's preseason, wound up ninth in the CAA standings behind first-round opponent Hofstra. UNCW has won or tied outright five regular season championships. UNCW tied for the league title in 1997 and 1998, won back-to-back regular season crowns in 2002 and 2003, and tied again in 2006.
LAST CAA TOURNAMENT PLAYER: UNCW did not compete in last year's CAA Tournament due to APR sanctions. In their last appearance in the event in 2012, the ninth-seeded Seahawks split a pair of games against No. 8 James Madison and No. 1 Drexel. UNCW topped JMU, 70-59, in a first-round game on March 2, 2012, before being eliminated by the top-seeded Dragons, 59-47, on March 3, 2012.
LAST REGULAR SEASON GAME: In its last appearance before the CAA Tournament, UNCW dropped its home finale, 70-57, to CAA frontrunner Delaware on Feb. 26 at Trask Coliseum. The Blue Hens trailed by nine points with 15:55 remaining, but rallied down the stretch behind junior guard Jarvis Threatt to survive an upset. All five UD starters reached double figures, topped by Threatt's game-high 24 points on 7-of-10 shooting from the floor.
STARTING LINEUPS: Coach Buzz Peterson used his 16th different starting lineup of the year in the regular season finale when he started five seniors. All 14 players on the active roster opened at least one game during the course of the campaign.
OFFENSIVELY CHALLENGED: UNCW has scored 584 points over the last 10 games for an average of 58.4 ppg. The Seahawks rank last in the CAA in scoring offense, last in scoring margin, last in field goal percentage and last in three-point field goal percentage.
BACKYARD BULLY: Since returning to the lineup 10 games ago in UNCW's matchup at Delaware on Feb. 1, senior forward Shane Reybold, who lives just minutes from Baltimore Arena, has averaged 7.3 ppg and 5.9 rpg in 22.3 minutes per game. In that span, he has made 30-of-58 field goals for 51.7 percent from the floor and contributed a team-high 12 blocks. He missed six games and the Seahawks were outrebounded by a 3.3 rpg margin.

WICHITA, KS (HUTCH) -– The Hutchinson Community College men's basketball team unleashed its best defensive effort at the most crucial of the season on Thursday in the Region VI Tournament semifinals at Charles Koch Arena.
Playing each other in the postseason for the first time since the 1997 Region VI championship game on the very same floor, the Blue Dragons held archrival Butler to the lowest point total they have surrendered all season and held the Grizzlies to just 34.4 percent from the field in the second half to advance to the Region VI semifinals with a 71-61 victory.
Hutchinson (25-7) advances to the Region VI semifinals at 5 p.m. on Friday in the first of two men's semifinal games. The Blue Dragons will take on non-Jayhawk Conference opponent Northwest Kansas Tech, which defeated top-seeded Independence 97-92 in triple overtime on Thursday.
Tied at 34-all at halftime – the first half featured 13 lead changes and six ties – the Blue Dragons scored the first six and 12 of the first 14 points of the second half. From there, the Blue Dragons rode the wave of their sharpest defensive effort of the season.
HCC held Butler to just 11 of 32 shooting in the second half, just two buckets from 3-point range in outscoring the Grizzles 37-27 in the final 20 minutes, the 27 points were the fewest allowed by the Blue Dragons this season. For the game, HCC held Butler to 39.3 percent (24 of 61), just 5 of 21 from 3-point range and 8 of 12 from the foul line.
Hutchinson held an opponent to less than 70 points for the first time since Independence on Dec. 17, a span of 19 games.
A pair of Blue Dragons had double-doubles to lead the Blue Dragons into their 37th Region VI semifinal appearance.
All-American Kadeem Allen had his eighth double-double of the season and ninth of his career with 21 points and 10 assists. Allen had 13 first-half points, but seven second half assists. Allen also had six rebounds and two steals.
Allen moved into third place on Hutchinson's career scoring list with 1,397 points. He is also No. 3 on the Blue Dragon single-season scoring list with 826 points. He moved into second place on the career assists list with 313 assists.
Sophomore Darrick Wood became the sixth Blue Dragon this season with a double-double, posting the first of his career with 16 points and a career-high 11 rebounds. Wood had eight points and six rebounds in the Dragon second-half surge.
Freshman DeShawn Freeman had 16 points, four rebounds, two steals and two assists in a stellar defensive effort. Sophomore Coreantae DeBerry finished with 11 points, eight rebounds and four blocked shots.
The Blue Dragons shot 48.3 percent from the field (28 of 58), including 5 of 12 from 3-point range and 10 of 16 from the free-throw line. Hutchinson out-rebounded Butler 41-31. The Blue Dragons tied a season high with 10 blocked shots. HCC turned the ball over 16 times.
Sean Goodwin led the Grizzlies (22-10) with 16 points and seven rebounds. Shomari Triggs had 14 points on 6 of 18 shooting. Bakari Triggs had 12 points on 5 of 12 shootings.
Butler did have three early 3-pointers in the first 10 minutes of the game. The third of those from Bakari Triggs gave the Grizzlies their largest lead of the opening half at 23-19 with 10:10 to play. The Dragons went through a stretch of only two baskets over a 5-minute stretch, but recovered with a Freeman free throw and late a dunk and took a 24-23 lead on a Wood bucket with 6:21 remaining in the first half.
The lead changed hands four more times in the first half. The Dragons shot 48.0 percent to Butler's 44.8 in the first 20 minutes. The game was tied 34-34 at intermission.
A Nathan Jackson jumper and back-to-back Wood layups boosted the Blue Dragons to their largest lead of the game at 40-34 with 17:51 to play. A Goodwin basket stopped the run, but the Dragons got a Freeman layup, Wood jumper and dunks by DeBerry and Freeman to cap a 12-2 run to start the first half and build a 48-36 lead with 15:04 to play.
