I'm loving these threads with the great team names like Sand Aggies and Purple Kansas.
I'm thinking maybe most of them came for Shaggybevo?
Anyway, do we want official names or is it more fun to just keep making up new/different ones each time a thread is posted?
Based on what I've observed:
TTech: Sand Aggies
Okie: Land Thieves
OSU: Okie Lite or Orange Okie
KSU: Purple Kansas
Haven't seen much on TCU
Saw a recent post on WVU, "Mountain Folk". Maybe we can do better
Haven't seen anything on Texas; I like "Hamburgers"
Don't remember any for KU
We could also throw in some ideas for EIU, maybe "Skeletal Parrotheads". That's pretty lame but maybe will get somebody's thought jumpstarted.
No matter what, I could NEVER cheer for Dirt and Urine.
WVU: Burning Couches.
The Aggies call the Longhorns "sips," whatever that means.
***King of Diplomacy***
***Surviving Member of the Sandlot Mafia***
I think Kansas should just be left alone. They're not worthy of the creativity it would take to come up with a nickname at this point.

This is what I found...
Urban Dictionary: t-sips
I went to college thinking I wanted a career; turns out I just wanted paychecks.
A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
Emaw was calling us flood aggie.

sips is short for Tea Sips. Aggies have this huge thing about being military academy-esque and insinuated that during whatever war, Aggies went to fight and kids who went to UT stayed home sipping tea. Also, Texas thinks of themselves as a pretty "upper crust" university, so it is also said sometimes that they "sip their tea with their pinkies out" and the like.

EMAW is a bunch of retards and shouldn't be brought into any conversation on this board.
EMAW is the sound a donkey makes is it not?
Ruh-taards, emaws are. I'm just adding to the fun.
Names for Kansas State observed on the KU boards:
Texas: uteri (as in the plural of "uterus")
Kansas is purple kittens
Gotta keep making them up as we go.
Texas - South Park Cows
Texas Tech - Sand Aggy
Baylor - Baptists, Green Aggy
TCU - Lizards, Horny Purple People Eater, Purple Texas
Oklahoma - Toby Keith, Where the wind BLOWS, Land Thieves
Oklahoma State - I'm a Man, Boone State
Kansas - Mythological Bird, John Brown
Kansas State - Purple Kansas, Wheat Aggy
West Virginia - Couch Burner, Mountain Folk, John Denver

Behold the courage of Portuguese filmmaker Miguel Gomes: hoping to do a film in the vein of "Meet Me In St. Louis," he and and a crew traveled to the small Arganil Municipality in the country to begin work on a movie featuring a small family band -- that is until the movie's investor died before signing the dotted line. Instead of calling it a day, Gomes pressed on and made "Our Beloved Month of August," a doc/fiction hybrid that captured the essence of the lively environment while commenting on the fragility and banality of a film production. It's a special, beautiful beast of a movie that unfortunately didn't see much of a release. Luckily, Gomes has quickly followed up with the brilliant "Tabu" (which we gave an A-grade review to out of TIFF).
Beginning with a rather conventional opening chapter titled 'Lost Paradise,' the filmmaker tells the tale of middle-aged activist Pilar and her starlet neighbor Aurora, the latter who believes her African maid is practicing witchcraft on her. Set in a chilly, modern-day Lisbon, the droll days pass and Aurora suddenly becomes gravely ill, confiding in Pilar about a man she had an affair with -- a man who the dedicated friend seeks out, urging him to relay his story. The second he opens his mouth, Gomes begins a new journey, abandoning Pilar for 'Paradise,' a nostalgic romance in a freewheelin', colonialist 1960s Mozambique. 'Paradise' is a strange segment, one completely coated in melodrama yet told in a rather distant, unaffecting way (for instance, there is no dialogue -- all of 'Paradise' is told via voice-over). Both segments transform the the other in mysterious ways, commenting on the way time and memory can distort reality.
All in all it's another distinct effort from Gomes, one you can catch in New York on December 26th. The director spoke to us during the New York Film Festival about the inspiration for the story, his distaste for the conventional three-act structure of screenplays, and his longing for silent cinema.
Starting With The Hangover
While the inspiration for the first chapter of "Tabu" is a bit ordinary (Gomes explained that the characters and situations were relayed to him from a relative), the following branch, 'Paradise,' has a much more colorful backstory. "When I was doing 'Our Beloved Month Of August,' I discovered that a song in the film was originally done by a Portuguese band in Mozambique in the 60s, so I met them. They talked to me about the old times in Africa, about the songs they played (whatever were the hits at the time), how they picked up girls, etc," explained the filmmaker, noting their nostalgia for a terrible colonialist regime. "They were attached to the regime and missing it, which is not my case, but what I think they were missing the most was their youth, and that intrigued me very much." As for how the divergent stories were eventually structured as one, the director described the idea in terms of binge drinking. "If the second part is the drinking, we start with the hangover. When you get to the section of partying, you continue to have the sensation of this hangover, so when you see the love affair, she's already gone, she died in the first part. The guy that is going to tell the story, he's an old man, and you can feel the weight of time contaminating this story, and all the fatigue that is in the first portion charges the second."
Grandpa Cinema
It's not part of the inflated "cinema is dead" declarations that have been going on as of late, but Gomes does have a unique perspective on the current state of movies. "Just as the guys playing in this band were missing their youth, cinema too is missing its youth. Now it is more than 100 years old, and during the process of aging a person becomes more aware and loses their innocence. You cannot believe in the same things you believed in as a child," the director said. "I tried to regain a little bit of this innocence that cinema lost (or we as viewers lost) with my film." Is it too nostalgic? Gomes fills the memories contained in 'Paradise' with artificial constructs such as a copious amount of voice over to distance the audience, making it so that cinema-goers will have to actively believe in the fiction he is weaving. "The beauty of cinema is that it allows us to go back in time, to our childhood maybe, and believe in unbelievable things. All of this is a construction so it's artificial, it's not reality, it's not the same world we are living in, it is cinema. But I guess that cinema can generate an inner truth, and there is a truth that exists in artificial structures that you can relate and react to in an emotional way," he resolved.

Gaming Companies Meet the Public in Prince Georges
The three gaming companies vying to build a casino resort in Prince George¹s County went before the Maryland Video Lottery Facility Location Commission and the public recently to make their cases as to why they should be awarded the lucrative gaming license.
Each of the companies hosted a site visit followed by a presentation at Fort Washington¹s Friendly High School before the video lottery commissioners. They wrapped up with a public hearing.
Penn National, which has proposed building the $700 million Hollywood Casino Resort at Rosecroft Raceway in Fort Washington, appeared on Oct. 21. The company¹s plan includes a 300,000 square-foot casino with 3,000 slot machines and 100 table games. There are plans to build a new grandstand for the horse racing track, restaurants, a 258-room hotel and spa and a 2,500 seat concert arena. Officials said the facility will generate 1,600 jobs and millions in tax revenues.
Greenwood Racing has proposed the $761 million dollar Parx Casino Hotel and
Spa entertainment complex to be built off Indian Head Highway in Fort Washington. Company officials announced at its session on Oct. 23 that it had just purchased four additional acres of land for a total of 26.
Greenwood promises 5,700 permanent jobs.
The Parx¹s plan includes 3,000 slot machines to start to increase to 4,750 by the year 2021. The facility would have 120 table games, 50 poker tables, a 250-room hotel and, like the other two, an entertainment and theatre complex and restaurants.
MGM National Harbor has proposed a $925 million dollar (up from $800 million) resort about a mile from National Harbor, just of I-95. It would include 3,600 slots machines, 140 table games, including poker, a 300-room luxury hotel, a theatre, a spa and other amenities. MGM National Harbor said they would hire 7,500 employees. Its session was held on Oct. 25.
The meetings provided the first opportunity for the commission to hear ³It¹s very important for us to do that,² said commission chairman Donald C.
Fry, ³because all we have received up to this point are mounds and mounds of
papers to sort through. And I don¹t think you can get a true reflection of w until you have seen the people face to face, until the public has a chance to say, "Hey we live here, this is what we are concerned about¹ or "This is what we like about these ideas.¹²
Fry said they expect to award the license by mid-December. The selection process is in the final stretch. The competition is ramping up and the bidders are sweetening the pot.
Penn National Gaming said that it would put nearly $320 million dollars into the county¹s health and education system if it gets the license.
Greenwood Racing said it will infuse $100 million into much needed local road improvements. For its part, MGM National Harbor announced it was bringing in Radio One Founder Cathy Hughes and her son, Alfred C. Liggins, III as investors. A company spokesperson said the duo plan to invest $40 million. Radio One owns or operates 54 radio stations targeting African-Americans and owns the controlling interest in TV One.
Tom Martin of Clayton, Md., told the AFRO that he supported the Parx site. ³They reached out to us and they said, "What are you guys worried about? What are your concerns? What are your expectations?¹ Let us know.²
Many residents spoke against the casino, saying one in any of the locations would exacerbate traffic problems and draw crime.
Said Bridgette Davis, of Fort Washington, who spoke against the Parx site: ³To have these people buy this property in a completely residential neighborhood and kick people out of their houses and come here talking about how they are gonna improve our lives with a casino is insulting to me.²
Another resident repeatedly referred to Nation Harbor as ³National Horror² and said current problems with traffic and noise would increase significantly if MGM got the license.
Claudia M. Bias of Fort Washington opposed any casino. ³I grew up in a family that believed in gambling,² she said, adding that her father lost whole paychecks, and ultimately their home, to gambling.
Carmela Goodall of Fort Washington took offense at the soundtrack for a video played by Parx Casino. It featured Teddy Pandergrass¹s song ³Wake Up Everybody.²
³To me that implies that we¹re stupid cause we are speaking out against something that we, as a community, don¹t want in our community,² she said. ³We need to wake up. That was very offensive to me. I took that as shot.
That was very offensive.²
Fry said the commission will be spending the next several weeks sifting through the testimony and materials presented to them. It is too soon to tell which way the seven-member commission was leaning, he said. The law stipulates that the earliest the casino can open is July 2016.

Your question is confusing. What units are you asking about?
Yeah that was confusing. Units 18,28,37,371
I don't know much, but I got 18 this year. Hopefully someone can help. I know there is a lot of high elevation so lets hope we don't get snowed out.
Yeah hopefully not too much snow. I'm looking at 371 in the eagles nest wilderness.
Heading up to 28 in the morning to scout the area. Hope to find some deer
Sweet let me know how it goes. I will be scouting 371 for 3 days in a few days. Ill let you know how it turns out.
The deer success rates are extremely low in 371 for second rifle (12 bucks for 181 hunters). I think this is because many of the deer have migrated out by that time. Eagles Nest is pretty high and rugged. You would probably have better success in the other units which you can hunt with that tag. Checkout the NW Region Hunt Guide. http://wildlife.state.co.us/SiteColl...WHuntGuide.pdf
Thanks for that info. I struck out in 28 scouting. I did find some logged area which game trails I may try sitting over. I'm not looking for a giant, just a good experience.
I know some decent bucks come out of unit 37 in the area across Highway 9 from Green Mountain Reservoir. I haven't personally hunted there but guys from work talk about it. I know of a place in 28 as well that can be good for deer weather dependent. Shoot me a P.M and I will help you out.
A bad day in the woods is better than a good day at work.
Shoot the best, Shoot PSE!

|10-year smoking trend shows significant decline in Colorado
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
According to a report released recently by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Colorado's cigarette smoking rate has significantly declined from 1998 through 2007.
The CDC analyzed data from the 2007 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System survey and found that smoking prevalence decreased in 44 states including Colorado—which decreased from 22.8 percent in 1998 to 18.7 percent in 2007.
Despite declines in smoking rates during this period of time, cigarette smoking continues to cause large numbers of deaths and disease.
"The deaths of approximately 4,400 Colorado men and women are attributed to smoking each year, at an estimated cost of 1.3 billion dollars," said Ned Calonge, chief medical officer at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. "This downward trend in smoking prevalence shows that Colorado is certainly heading in the right direction, but we must continue to implement effective strategies that are proven to work—not only to save lives but to reduce the exorbitant health-care costs related to tobacco."
According to the CDC, the only way to achieve substantial reductions in tobacco use in all states is to implement comprehensive, evidence-based tobacco control programs. Although Colorado ranks ninth in the nation in tobacco control spending, it meets only 50 percent of the recommended funding level for tobacco cessation efforts.
Jason Vahling, director of the State Tobacco Education & Prevention Partnership at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, said, "The significant decline in smoking over the past 10 years is great news for Colorado. This trend can be attributed to implementing effective strategies of a comprehensive program, such as implementing smoke-free policies; supporting 'quit lines'; and conducting media campaigns that encourage quitting use of tobacco, preventing youth from starting to smoke and educating the public about the dangers of secondhand smoke."
Increasing the unit price of tobacco products may be a smoking
deterrent. On April 1, the federal tax on cigarettes will increase by 62 cents. According to national research, this could increase the motivation for smokers to try to quit and decrease smoking prevalence in the long term.
Another outcome of Colorado's comprehensive tobacco control program is a significant decline in cigarette pack sales - from 76 packs per capita per year in 1998 to 46.3 packs per capita per year in 2008. The national per capita consumption rate is 63.4 annually.
The Colorado QuitLine provides tobacco users with a free telephone coaching service and a free supply of the nicotine patch. Quitting can save the average Colorado smoker $1,800 per year. The Colorado QuitLine gives people a valuable service that has been proven to work.
To contact the QuitLine, call 1.800.QUIT.NOW (1-800-784-8669) or visit www.coquitline.org for web-based cessation tools. The Colorado QuitLine is operated by National Jewish Health under contract to the State Tobacco Education & Prevention Partnership at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. QuitLine coaches are available Monday through Friday, 7 a.m.-9 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

- Excitation and relaxation of the electronic subsystem in solids after high energy deposition (2011)
- The present dissertation contains the theoretical studies performed on the topic of a high energy deposition in matter. The work focuses on electronic excitation and relaxation processes on ultrafast timescales. Energy deposition by means of intense ultrashort (femtosecond) laser pulses or by means of swift heavy ions irradiation have a certain similarities: the final observable material modifications result from a number of processes on different timescales. First, the electronic excitation by photoabsorption or by ion impact takes place on subfemtosecond timescales. Then these excited electrons propagate and redistribute their energy interacting among themselves and exciting secondary generations of electrons. This typically takes place on femtosecond timescales. On the order of tens to hundreds femtoseconds the excited electrons are usually thermalized. The energy exchange with the lattice atoms lasts up to tens of picoseconds. The lattice temperature can reach melting point; then the material cools down and recrystalizes, forming the final modified nanostructures, which are observed experimentally. The processes on each previous step form the initial conditions for the following step. Thus, to describe the final phase transition and formation of nanostructures, one has to start from the very beginning and follow through all the steps. The present work focuses on the early stages of the energy dissipation after its deposition, taking place in the electronic subsystems of excited materials. Different models applicable for different excitation mechanisms will be presented: in the thesis I will start from the description of high energy excitation (electron energies of \(\sim\) keV), then I shall focus on excitations to intermediate energies of electrons (\(\sim\) 100 eV), and finally coming down to a few eV electron excitations (visible light). The results will be compared with experimental observations. For the high energy material excitation assumed to be caused by irradiation with swift heavy ions, the classical Asymptotical Trajectory Monte-Carlo (ATMC) is applied to describe the excitation of electrons by the impact of the projectile, the initial kinetics of electrons, secondary electron creation and Auger-redistribution of holes. I first simulate the early stage (first tens of fs) of kinetics of the electronic subsystem (in silica target, SiO\(_2\)) in tracks of ions decelerated in the electronic stopping regime. It will be shown that the well pronounced front of excitation in the electronic and ionic subsystems is formed due to the propagation of electrons, which cannot be described by models based on diffusion mechanisms (e.g. parabolic equations of heat diffusion). On later timescales, the thermalization time of electrons can be estimated as a time when the particle- and the energy propagation turns from the ballistic to the diffusive one. As soon as the electrons are thermalized, one can apply the Two Temperature Model. It will be demonstrated how to combine the MC output with the two temperature model. The results of this combination demonstrate that secondary ionizations play a very important role for the track formation process, leading to energy stored in the hole subsystem. This energy storage causes a significant delay of heating and prolongs the timescales of lattice modifications up to tens of picoseconds. For intermediate energies of excitation (XUV-VUV laser pulse excitation of materials) I applied the Monte-Carlo simulation, modified where necessary and extended in order to take into account the electronic band structure and Pauli's principle for electrons within the conduction band. I apply the new method for semiconductors and for metals on examples of solid silicon and aluminum, respectively. It will be demonstrated that for the case of semiconductors the final kinetic energy of free electrons is much less than the total energy provided by the laser pulse, due to the energy spent to overcome ionization potentials. It was found that the final total number of electrons excited by a single photon is significantly less than \(\hbar \omega / E_{gap}\). The concept of an 'effective energy gap' is introduced for collective electronic excitation, which can be applied to estimate the free electron density after high-intensity VUV laser pulse irradiation. For metals, experimentally observed spectra of emitted photons from irradiated aluminum can be explained well with our results. At the characteristic time of a photon emission due to radiative decay of \(L-\)shell hole (\(t < 60\) fs), the distribution function of the electrons is not yet fully thermalized. This distribution consists of two main branches: low energy distribution as a distorted Fermi-distribution, and a long high energy tail. Therefore, the experimentally observed spectra demonstrate two different branches of results: the one observed with \(L-\)shell radiation emission reflects the low energy distribution, the Bremsstrahlung spectra reflects high energy (nonthermalized) tail. The comparison with experiments demonstrated a good agreement of the calculated spectra with the experimentally observed ones. For the irradiation of semiconductor with low energy photons (visible light), a statistical model named the "extended multiple rate equation" is proposed. Based on the earlier developed multiple rate equation, the model additionally includes the interaction of electrons with the phononic subsystem of the lattice and allows for the direct determination of the conditions for crystal damage. Our model effectively describes the dynamics of the electronic subsystem, dynamical changes in the optical properties, and lattice heating, and the results are in very good agreement with experimental measurements on the transient reflectivity and the fluence damage threshold of silicon irradiated with a femtosecond laser pulse.

- Velocitiy-resolved recombination dynamics in a laser-produced Ta plasma (1995)
- Ion energy spectra of a laser-produced Ta plasma have been investigated as a function of the flight distance from the focus. The laser (Nd:YAG, 20 ns, 210 mJ) is incident obliquely (45°) and focused to an intensity of about 10^11 W cm-2. The changes in the ion distributions have been analysed for the Ta+ to Ta6+ ions in an expansion range 64 - 220 cm. With increasing distance from the target, a weak but monotonic decrease is observed for the total number of ions, which is essentially due to the decrease in the number of the more highly charged species. For the Ta+ and Ta2+ ions the net changes approximately cancel. A more sophisticated picture of the recombination dynamics is obtained, however, if the changes within individual groups of ions expanding with different velocities are compared. Here, in the same spectrum, both increasing and decreasing ion numbers can be observed. This can be interpreted as direct evidence of recombination and its dependence on temperature, density and charge.
- Two-component structure in the angular emission of a laser-produced Ta plasma (1994)
- The particle flux produced by an obliquely incident Nd Q-switched pulse (20 ns) on a Ta target has been analysed with regard to its angular distribution resolved for both its neutral and ion components. The laser intensity has been varied in the range between about 10^10 - 10^11 W cm-2, which is appropriate for many low-irradiance applications. It is observed that, at all emission angles and for the whole range of laser intensities, the number of neutral species clearly dominates the composition of the particles. At 1.3 x 10^10 W cm-2 the total number of emitted particles is 4 x 10^14, scaling as E_L^¾ with the laser energy. While for relatively low laser energies the angular distribution shows the usual smooth cos-behaviour, an additional strong directive emission cone, superimposed upon the cos-distribution, develops if the laser energy is enhanced. Both the strength and the width strongly depend on the laser intensity. While at lower intensities a fit by a cos^n function with n ~ 10 seems appropriate, n increases to 26 at an intensity of 10^11 W cm-2 . It can be assumed that secondary energy transfer processes that are not yet fully understood are responsible for this anomalous emission.

One person in hospital after double shooting
ELKHART — One person remained hospitalized Saturday following a double shooting late Friday night in Elkhart.
Police did not release any reports on the shooting, but a spokesperson for Elkhart Police said an adult male was treated and released from an area hospital and that a girl who was also shot remains hospitalized at Memorial Hospital in South Bend.
The shooting happened about 10:45 p.m. at 720 Kilbourn St., west of North Riverside Drive on Elkhart's west side.
Family members at the house were confronted by three people, according to a neighbor.
Iverson Grove, who lives across the street, declined to identify the victims, but said he was told the girl who was shot is about 7 years old. He said she was shot in the head and was in critical condition late Saturday afternoon.
He said he was told three assailants ran south after the shooting.


text: By Jan SchultzThe Imperial Republican A former District 44 state senator wants his old job back. Tom Baker of Trenton plans to run for his former legislative seat next year, now held by Mark Christensen of Imperial. Baker, 61, hinted of a possible run in July. He made his intentions formal last week in an email announcement to the paper. Baker said his priorities in the Legislature will be "job creation, cutting state spending, tax relief and sensible solutions to the state's water challenges. "My focus in the legislature will be on serving the people I represent in southwest Nebraska, not special interest groups," Baker said. Baker said people across southwest Nebraska have encouraged him to run again. He said he looks forward to working hard in the upcoming campaign. The former senator represented District 44 from 1999 to 2007, and served four years during that tenure as chairman of the Legislature's transportation and telecommunication committee. Nebraska law limits state senators to two terms, or eight years, in the legislature. Once a former senator sits out one full term he can run for office again. "I hated being term-limited out," he said. "I really miss it." He resigned last month from the Board of Educational Lands and Funds to be eligible to run for the legislature. State law prohibits board members from running for political office. He was appointed to that post by Gov. Dave Heineman in January, 2007. Baker is a farmer, rancher and small business owner who lives outside of Trenton. He's a former Trenton school board member and served on the Nebraska Oil and Gas Commission. His wife, Pat, is a teacher. They have three grown children and seven grandchildren.

Dover Race Report - June 2012
Posted by: lori on Jun 04, 2012
Tagged in: Untagged
Dover, DE (June 3, 2012) – Casey Mears entered Dover on a positive note after a near Top 20 finish a week ago in Charlotte, and nine Top 25's in his first twelve starts. With positive momentum carrying the GEICO Racing team, Dover served as further opportunity to continue a successful run.
While Dover is not without its challenges, Mears' first challenge came in the opening NASCAR Sprint Cup Series practice when he ended up 39th on the speed chart. Seemingly undaunted, Mears took to the track for Happy Hour and landed the #13 GEICO Ford Fusion a resilient 11th on the board, improving a stunning 28 positions from the earlier session. Hope was abound, but qualifying provided more fuel for the team's rollercoaster ride when the GEICO Fusion bottomed out during qualifying and left Mears starting 40th on Sunday.
Bright sunshine and reasonable temperatures greeted Mears and his teammates when they took to the starting grid for Sunday's FedEx 400 benefitting Autism Speaks. When the green flag turned the field loose, Mears made quick work of his competition, netting five positions before the conclusion of the opening lap. He navigated his way up to 32nd before the Monster Mile reared its ugly head. Just nine laps into the 400-lap event, Mears was collected in the largest crash of the 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season. A seasoned veteran who rarely falls victim to crashes, Mears was collected along with twelve others, including Tony Stewart, Juan Pablo Montoya and Regan Smith. For all of his efforts, he was relegated to a 41st place finish.
Mears was quick to point out that although Sunday proved frustrating, it hasn't negated the success the team has experienced in the 2012 season.
"This is racing. It's not fun, but it's racing and these things happen." Mears said as he surveyed the damage to his #13 GEICO Fusion. "It's frustrating because I had a clear line through the crash and then I got hit from behind and ended up in the wall." He continued, "We keep getting better and better and just because this happened doesn't change anything. We're not the only team sitting in the garage right now; a lot of guys got caught up in that mess. We're in good shape. You saw the improvement from the first practice to Happy Hour and you saw how fast we were moving up in the race. I feel really good about our effort and how we came together this weekend."

Sukispa is a cosmeceutically-active, results-driven, targeted line of products formulated for specific skin issues and goals and should be used to amplify your regular Suki skin care routine.
Suki continues to challenge industry standards of purity and effectiveness by utilizing scientific advancements to create a multidisciplinary solution for your skin helping to correct even the most stubborn issues and prevent future imperfections by naturally tuning your skin's biological mechanisms to visibly deliver long-term results and provide a significantly healthier, more flawless complexion. Delivering up to 84% younger looking, healthier, more radiant and a clearer, more balanced complexion. Suki is serious about the impact on the environment too – all Sukispa products are packaged in eco-friendly glass, FSE certified and wind power papers and vegetable inks.
When you visit a luxury spa, the office of an esthetician or the practice of a dermatologist, you can expect your complexion to be treated to safe treatments that produce noticeable results for the look and feel of your skin. Enjoying similar benefits from over-the-counter skin care formulas can be difficult, as often the products sold for use at home contain synthetic ingredients that can irritate and dehydrate your skin. Also, those that are of natural origin are often not as effective as clinical skin care treatments.
The Suki Sukispa collection is formulated to be different from other home spa products. Containing 100 percent natural formulas, the products in the Suki Sukispa range offer benefits that truly rival those of clinical interventions. The collection includes products intended for a variety of skin conditions, including acne, hyperpigmentation, reduced skin elasticity and signs of aging. In clinical tests, 84 percent of women who used products from the Suki Sukispa range reported that their skin appeared dramatically better after treatment with the formulas. Bring the spa home with the completely natural Sukispa range!
Discover the Suki Sukispa collection and harness the healing power of nature to use it to transform your complexion. The 100 percent natural formulas in the range offer the exceptional results that you'd expect from a visit to a luxury spa.
Suki Targeted Bio-Brightening Face Serum allows you to fight back against hyperpigmentation without having to expose your skin to synthetic ingredients, harsh laser or light treatments or prescription medications. To achieve results, the serum uses natural licorice extract, which reduces the concentration of the skin pigment melanin to eliminate all types of tissue discoloration.
The Suki Facial Lift Ultimate Firming Cream is like a facelift in a bottle, leaving the skin tighter and more youthful in appearance without the need for surgery or exposing the skin to synthetic ingredients. The wrinkle-fighting, firming formula contains an anti-aging complex that consists of vitamin C glucoside, resveratrol and acetyl tetrapeptide-9, all derived from natural sources. The formula is time-released to gradually provide the skin with its beneficial ingredients throughout the day.
The Suki Bio-Active Purifying Face Serum is an intensive, yet gentle skin care treatment for acne-prone complexions. Goldenseal extract present in the formula kills bacteria and prevents its return, eliminating infections and disinfecting the pores. Apple enzymes included in the serum restore moisture levels in the skin and ease the throbbing, redness and pain that is commonplace with acne. A blend of salicylic acid and retinol are also used in the serum to prevent blockages in the pores.

Thanks for looking to help!
I already did a test map with the tutorial's exact settings and measurements. The map turned out pretty well and I see where I need to improve. I took it upon myself to try and reproduce the same effects of the tutorial on a much larger map to see how well I could handle something larger. This is where I'm very confused why a certain step will not work.
I've got the land masses edited to where I want them with the black and white paint, on page 2 and 3. I select all, copy merged, pop over to channels, make the alpha 1 channel, paste, delete threshold layer, create land layer, load the alpha 1 selection, fill foreground color... nothing. It does nothing.
I've tried inverting the selection and filling. I've tried deleting the alpha selection, re-pasting, re-filling, and still nothing. I don't know what I've done that this isn't working. I'm also working from an older save of the current map as I later found out on the oceans bit that I had some land artifacts at the edges of the map I didn't want at all. I couldn't figure out to edit them out once I started working on the oceans (shallow parts), so I decided to pick a point where I didn't get that far.
Can I upload the .psd file and have someone examine it? I truly have no idea why it's not working. It's got me sad because I really liked the landmasses I have now and I'd rather not start again. Thanks for your assistance.
EDIT: I've been fighting with my .psd file and still nothing. This is starting to suck.

Recently, the U.S. House of Representatives, often mocked for being a do-nothing chamber, did something. It rejected the nearly $1 trillion farm bill, sending waves of surprise through Washington, D.C. By rejecting the farm bill, House members sent a message to leaders in both parties that reform-minded legislators still have sway. The lawmakers expressed a healthy wish to reform farm subsidies and get the food stamp program back under control.
These lawmakers, like their constituents, are tired of the annual scramble to fill the farm bill with goodies for various segments of the farming industry, from large corporations to rich, so-called farmers who own land but have other careers. More than 60 Republicans joined with most Democrats to shoot down the bill.
The bill had been supported by House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and his leadership team � but a number of Republicans from rural, farm-rich districts voted against the $940 billion measure.
The farm bill is usually tied to the food stamp budget. The food stamp budget for the defeated farm bill was $740 billion over 10 years. A chance to separate the food stamp portion from the agricultural subsidies and price controls was defeated in the House. That was a mistake.
The food stamp program is growing too fast. Four years after the Great Recession ended, the program pays out to one in seven Americans. And tying the food stamp program to the farm bill no longer makes sense, except to make sure both items cannot be reformed separately.
Reformers need to take aim at price supports and direct payments to farmers. Sugar and milk, for example, have their prices propped up by federal subsidies. But the markets for sugar and milk would not collapse if price supports were withdrawn. The farm bill is so large and unwieldy, it even tries to set olive oil prices. Why?
Agriculture subsidies don�t make much sense anymore. The family farms that received such support in the past are becoming a smaller and smaller part of the economy. Many farmers have higher-than-average incomes.
Large corporations such as Archer Daniels Midland Co. control a large portion of the farming business now. Congress needs to stop giving taxpayer money to large corporations and sharply limit the focus of the farm bill.
For now, such wasteful spending will continue because Congress and the White House cannot agree on a budget. But the House sent a message: It will no longer just say yes to needless subsidies, price supports and a ballooning food stamp program. That�s good news for taxpayers and the marketplace.

Your mama always reminded you to put on your sunscreen and guess what? She was right. Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the U.S. today, and despite your perceived manly invincibility, you are not immune! Protecting yourself from the harmful UVA and UVB rays of the sun is critical to your health and it needs to be done year-round, not just in sunny weather. You can get zapped by those pesky rays in any type of weather. UV rays also reflect off of water, sand, snow and concrete. Excess sun can cause painful burns and it has the added punch of advancing the skin's natural aging process, causing your skin to appear leathery and wrinkled. Fear not, Superman. Your Kryptonite awaits: sunscreen!
Choose here from a number of sun-protecting products for body and face, available in ultra light, non-greasy water resistant and sweat resistant formulas to provide maximum protection. Some products deliver extra moisture to nurture and help repair the damaging effects of the sun. If you're looking to achieve that golden, sun-kissed glow without subjecting your skin to the sun, choose a hydrating self-tanner.

|Phillips County Economic Development
|Written by Julie Worley, PCED executive director
Economic development—What is it?
If you were to ask five people on the street of Holyoke or Haxtun what economic development is in Phillips County, you quite possibly would get five different answers.
The dictionary doesn't really have a definition for "economic development," but an individual working in economic development once defined it as "the process by which a community creates, retains and reinvests wealth and improves the quality of life in that community." (David Dodson, MDC, Inc.)
So by that definition, economic development could seemingly include just about anything that happens in a community that affects the lives of its community members.

Popular principal leaves Lincoln Orens
Parents vent at rancorous board meeting
1 2 Next page >
Many Island Park parents were surprised when they received a late June newsletter from Island Park superintendent Dr. Rosemarie Bovino that said, "I was notified last Friday that Lincoln Orens principal John Barnes will not be returning in September. He will have a much easier commute from the Bronx to his new job in New Rochelle."
Several parents called the Herald to say that they were at first perplexed by the fact that a popular school administrator was leaving the district with little notice and without saying goodbye and then angered by the lack of information as to why he had resigned his position. The parents got together over coffee a few days after the notice was given.
"Barnes told the kids in June that he would see them in September," said one parent of a seventh grader who asked not to be identified because she fears "negative retaliation."
"Why would he leave like that? He brought light out of the darkness that the school had become. He loved and respected the kids and they returned that love and respect. He stopped bullying in the school. He was the perfect principal and then he just up and left with no explanation, no goodbye to the kids. They are devastated. My son does not want to go back to school."
The parents got together a petition calling on Bovino to do what she could to bring Barnes back to Island Park, even though the information the parents heard through the grapevine was that he had taken a better-paying job closer to home. The parents quickly got 300 signatures. More than 100 parents and students crowded the Island Park school board meeting on July 6, angrily demanding to know why Barnes was leaving and to demand that Bovino bring him back.
Forty parents and students spoke. Some were openly angry at the former principal's leaving. Others got emotional and cried at the thought. School board members and Bovino told them that it was a simple matter of Barnes finding a new, better-paying job closer to home.
Parents, however, do not believe that. At the meeting, the parents challenged Bovino and board members to provide "the real truth about why Barnes abruptly resigned a job" that he repeatedly said that he loved.

ST. CLAIRSVILLE - St. Clairsville senior Dan Monteroso had a pretty pedestrian opening game if you look at the numbers.
He had just four catches for 37 yards and with the Red Devils running all over Wheeling Park during the McDonald's OVAC Kickoff Weekend at Wheeling Island Stadium, there wasn't much need to throw the ball.
So just how is it he was one of the reasons St. Clairsville was able to dominate the second half?

Dan Monteroso
''I'm not a much of a vocal leader, I just kind of go about my way and try to lead by example, but in the locker room I was kind of screaming a little bit,'' Monteroso said, saying his words might not be suitable for print. ''We locked down the locker room and said some things that needed to be said. We had a bad first half and we came out and dominated the second half.''
Whatever came out of his mouth, it sure worked as the second half belonged to the Red Devils in a 47-27 rout, 35 points of which came in the final 24 minutes.
As St. Clairsville showed, it is as talented a team as there is in the Ohio Valley and will surely be one of the most watched.
Much of the summer headlines belonged to teammate Michael Ferns and his recruiting saga which eventually saw him commit to Michigan.
Meanwhile, Monteroso was getting his own looks from Division I schools.
In early July, the senior decided Boston College was going to be his new home, beating out 12 other schools.
''Boston College was my favorite,'' Monteroso said. ''The people I was around and the environment, the city of Boston, the Boston College campus, the football players are great guys. That is what made me fall in love with Boston. They made me feel like I was one of their own before I even committed.''
Also intriguing was the addition of offensive coordinator Doug Martin, a former Kent State coach that is expected to open up the offense.
''Coach Martin and Coach Spaz (head coach Frank Spaziani) always talked to me,'' Monteroso said. ''They are going to throw it around a lot. But I will worry about that after basketball season. My goal right now is to go 2-0 next week and keep going. My mind is on Brooke.''
Monteroso missed three games last season following shoulder surgery but bounced back with 23 receptions for 454 yards and seven touchdowns.
At 6-foot-3, Monteroso is a big target for any quarterback but with Ferns and teammate Jaylon Brown, who rushed for 150 yards and four touchdowns (plus a touchdown coming on an interception return) against the Patriots, there might be more days like Thursday where Monteroso isn't always a part of the game plan.
''Jaylon and Michael run the iso like it's their job,'' Monteroso said. ''If I have to score five touchdowns to win, so be it. If Matt (Kinnick) has to run for two and Mike has to score and Jaylon has to score, whatever it takes. A 'W' is a 'W' in my book.''
And to think, football might not be his best sport. Monteroso is a standout basketball player where he was first-team All-Ohio, All-OVAC, All-Valley (Big School co-captain), and the Division II co-Player of the Year.
''In basketball, I'm the short one,'' Monteroso said. ''In basketball, I'm 6-3 and I'm short. In football, I'm 6-3 and I'm tall. I had some Division I basketball offers but I decided football would be the best chance to play in college and maybe, if I'm lucky, further.''
Northeastern, also located in Boston, was one of his favorites.
One person that is sure you will see more of Monteroso once he leaves St. Clairsville is football coach Brett McLean.
''I think the sky is the limit and people don't really know how athletic this kid is,'' McLean said. ''You have to make it through that buffer period of being on the bottom of the totem pole again. But he is as coachable as anybody, as competitive as anybody. He is going to get into a weight program and gain some strength. As long as he makes it through that buffer period, I think you are going to be hearing a lot more of his name.''

Admission as a Freshman Student
A student who meets the criteria for admission to The University of Alabama as a freshman student is eligible for admission to the freshman class of the College. Specific information about these criteria is available from The University of Alabama, Office of Undergraduate Admissions, Box 870132, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487-0132; (205) 348-5666 or toll-free 1-800-933-BAMA in the continental United States.
Admission as a Transfer Student
A student seeking to transfer to the Culverhouse College of Commerce and Business Administration from another college or university must have an official transcript sent directly to the UA Office of Undergraduate Admissions (see address in preceding paragraph) from each college or university previously attended. A grade point average of "C" (2.00 on a 4.00 scale) or better for all college-level work attempted is required for admission to the University and to the College. For admission directly to the College's upper division, a grade point average of 2.5 is required. Transferred credit hours will be applied as appropriate to a student's degree program. The authority to apply or to deny transferred credit rests with the College.
Transfers from two-year colleges. A maximum of 50 percent of the total number of hours required for the bachelor's degree in business may be taken at two-year colleges and applied toward graduation requirements. Most of the business programs in this catalog require 124 semester hours; therefore, in most cases, the maximum number of two-year-college hours applicable to a degree in the Culverhouse College of Commerce is 62 hours.
Only courses that are equivalent to courses numbered 100 or 200 at the University (freshman- and sophomore-level courses) may be transferred to C&BA from junior colleges. Junior college transfer students may transfer courses equivalent to (a) the College's general education requirements; (b) restricted and unrestricted electives; and (c) the University's sophomore-level courses satisfying business administration functional field requirements [i.e. the introductory courses in accounting (AC 210), statistics (ST 260), and the legal environment of business (LGS 200)]. All courses for which credit is to be transferred must be of essentially the same quality as the equivalent courses at The University of Alabama.
Transfers from senior colleges and universities. Courses transferred from institutions accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business–International will be accepted within the broad limits of the graduation requirements of the College and the University. Students seeking to transfer credit from institutions not accredited by AACSB–International or by a regional or national accrediting agency may be granted transfer credit on a provisional basis. Provisional credit may be validated by completing 24 semester hours in residence with a "C" average or better. Consult the C&BA registrar or the UA Office of Undergraduate Admissions for more information.
A maximum of 6 semester hours of professional courses taken at another institution may be applied toward a student's major program requirements (in Curriculum I, these requirements total 27 semester hours; see p. 134). Approval is required from the head of the department in which the student expects to earn a degree. All courses for which credit is to be transferred must be of essentially the same quality as the equivalent courses at The University of Alabama. All coursework required in the major program of the Culverhouse School of Accountancy must be done in residence.
Transfers from other divisions of The University of Alabama. Students who wish to transfer from one division of the University to another should consult staff members in the student services office of the division into which they intend to transfer. Students are encouraged to contact the new division well ahead of the time they intend to actually transfer. Students will need information about the applicability of previous and present coursework to the new division's requirements, and on the procedures involved in transferring.
Admission to the College's Upper Division
Business students are required to apply for admission to the upper division of the College and to a major program. Application for admission to the upper division and to a major program must be made upon completion of a set of specific requirements outlined below.
Entering freshman students who plan to major in programs offered by C&BA are designated "PREB" (prebusiness) students until they have been admitted to the upper division. All prebusiness students are administratively housed in the College, and they receive academic advising in the A. H. Bean Undergraduate Student Services Center in 10 Bidgood Hall.
Requirements. Students are eligible for admission to the upper division and to a major program—and are therefore entitled to enroll in 300- and 400- level business courses—only if they meet the following standards:
- Students must have achieved junior standing, defined as a minimum of 61 hours of credit. Students may apply for admission to the upper division either in the semester during which junior standing will be achieved or after junior standing has been achieved. Credit earned by such means as Advanced Placement (AP), CLEP, or departmental placement is counted toward the 61-hour requirement. Students who have completed coursework at other institutions and wish to have that work applied to the 61-hour requirement must see to it that transcripts from the other institutions are forwarded as soon as possible to The University of Alabama. Hours completed but not officially transferred to the student's University of Alabama record cannot be included in the calculation of the 61-hour requirement. Courses (and hours) in which a student has earned a grade of "Incomplete" ("I") cannot be included in the calculation of the 61-hour requirement until the grade has officially been changed to a passing grade.
- Students must be enrolled in or have completed with grades of "C-" or higher the following required general education courses:
CS 102 (or CS 114 and CS 116)1
EC 110 and EC 111
EN 101 and EN 102
MATH 112 and MATH 121 (or MATH 115 and MATH 1252)
In addition, students must be enrolled in or have completed with grades of "C-" or higher the following lower-division business administration functional field courses:
Students will have a maximum of three (3) attempts at completing the general education and the lower division business administration functional field courses with a grade of "C-" or higher. A grade of "W" counts as an attempt.
The remaining hours applied toward the 61 hour requirement should consist of courses required in the University of Alabama Core Curriculum and must include courses in the following categories:At least 4 hours of natural science
At least 3 hours of fine arts, literature or humanities
At least 3 hours of history or social and behavioral sciences (in addition to EC 110 and EC 111)
- Students admitted to the upper division of the College and approved to begin C&BA coursework at the 300 and 400 level must have grade point averages of 2.5 or higher for all college-level coursework attempted, and they must have grade point averages of 2.5 or higher for all University of Alabama coursework attempted. A student whose grade point average falls below these standards may petition the assistant dean of undergraduate programs for admission to the upper division if the student's grade point average for the last 30 hours attempted is 2.5 or higher. These admission standards have been established by the C&BA faculty and are subject to change.
- Please refer to the sections of this catalog devoted to the majors in accountancy and in management information systems for details on admission in those programs.
- Requirements for admission to the college's major program in general business may be found on p. 143 of this catalog.
2Students concentrating in quantitative finance are required to complete MATH 125 and MATH 126.
Applying for Admission to the Upper Division
Students seeking admission to the College's upper division should apply in the A. H. Bean Undergraduate Student Services Center, 10 Bidgood Hall. Business students will not be permitted to enroll in upper-division courses unless they have applied and been admitted to the upper division. Students who have completed all requirements for admission to the upper division but have failed to complete the required application for admission will be barred from enrolling in upper-level courses unless and until the application is completed. The application deadlines are specified below:
- A student who wishes to apply for admission to the upper division and to a major program, and who wishes to begin taking junior-level courses and courses in the major during the Interim term, summer session, or fall semester, should apply by March 1 preceding those terms.
- Qualified new transfer students, and returning students who will qualify as a result of attending summer school, should apply for fall-semester admission no later than July 15.
- A student who expects to begin upper-level work in the spring semester should apply no later than October 1.
Students who are applying for admission to the upper division at the midpoint of a semester will be applying based on coursework they expect to complete during that semester. A decision concerning admission will be conditional until the successful completion of coursework produces the required cumulative hours and grade point average. Admission will be revoked should a student fail to achieve the required average or complete the required courses and hours in which he or she is enrolled during the semester in which application is made.
Students who attempt to enroll in 300- or 400-level C&BA courses in violation of any of these policies will be administratively disenrolled from courses for which they are not eligible.
Admission to the Culverhouse School of Accountancy
The Culverhouse School of Accountancy has developed its own standards for admission and retention. Please consult the Culverhouse School of Accountancy section of this catalog (p. 139) for details.
Admission to the Management Information Systems (MIS) Program
The MIS program has developed its own standards for admission and retention. Please consult the MIS program section of this catalog (p. 142) for details.
Non-Business Majors in Upper-Level C&BA Courses
Students from other divisions of the University may enroll in 300- and 400-level C&BA courses subject to the following conditions:
- Students must have achieved junior standing, defined as a minimum of 61 hours of credit. Economics majors and economics minors in the College of Arts and Sciences may enroll in 300-level economics (EC) courses prior to achieving junior standing.
- Students must meet specific prerequisites established for the courses in which they wish to enroll and must have completed EC 110.
- The total number of hours in C&BA coursework for which a non-business major may enroll may not exceed 30 semester hours (excluding EC 110, EC 111, and ST 260).
Students who attempt to enroll in 300- or 400-level C&BA courses in violation of any of these policies will be administratively disenrolled from courses for which they are not eligible.

Winterthur Museum Garden and Library has announced that the missing snuff box has been found.
The snuff box was found by a Winterthur staff member and was located in a place where it had never been exhibited. The museum discovered in October that the small, colonial silver snuff box with sentimental value was missing from the museum. The box has been on display for 60 years in the museum rooms with other colonial New York silver items. It was given to Winterthur by Henry Francis du Pont.

Exactly 50 years ago yesterday, poet Robert Frost died at the age of 88. For a man so closely associated with New England, you may not realize that he was born and lived the first 11 years of his life in San Francisco. After his father died, the Frost family moved east to Massachusetts with a grand total of eight dollars to their name.
At the age of 20, Robert Frost sold his first poem, "My Butterfly." Several volumes followed as he attended Dartmouth and Harvard (although he never quite finished at either college). A trip to Europe brought local, then international recognition and he and his family returned to the United States in triumph. Frost eventually won four Pulitzer Prizes, became unofficial poet laureate of the US, read at John F. Kennedy's Presidential inauguration, had a mountain named for him in Vermont, and became a staple in classrooms. If you had to memorize "Mending Wall" or "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening," you're not alone.
Fifty years later, his legacy as one of the most important American poets ever is solid. Stop by and pick up one of his poetry books here, perfect for a cold winter's reading right here in Robert Frost's world.

Lunker City Spanky 5" 8pk
The Lunker City Spanky is designed from the ground up to be the ultimate wacky rig worm. The Spanky is made with a special plastic formula loaded with the heaviest salt concentration in the industry! Wacky rig the Spanky through the "bulb" located in the middle for best results.
Cast the Spanky near a dock, stump, or at the edge of a weed bed and let it sink naturally. Give it a gentle twitch or two as it sinks to flex the lure in the middle for enticing action. With its bulbous ends and exclusive 'center-flex' design, the Spanky maximizes the typical wacky worm 'U' action. If the lure reaches bottom unmolested, let it sit for a few moments before twitching it back to life.

Customer Reviews
Comments: Fall rate too slow for me. Not even close to senko in my opinion. Sure it will catch fish,just can't pick this over a senko in a tournament. Will stick with what has produced over and over. Yamamoto for the win.
From: David: VA 5/9/15
Comments: These things are much better for wacky rigging than senkos! I think the shape exaggerates the action and bass just love it. They are pretty durable as well and it is one of my go to lures.
From: Pat: Worcester, MA 6/28/14
Comments: This is one of the best wacky rigging baits out their.Either along weed edges or under docks,this worm is amazing.My best colors are bluegill and most of all green pumpkin.A very nice bait.
From: Noah: Sioux Center, IA
Comments: my go to wacky rigged worm. I use only green pumpkin. Amazing for skipping under docks or tossing into lillypads with a weedless hook.
