The National Architectural Accrediting Board requires that the following statement be included, in its entirety, in the catalogues and promotional materials of all accredited programs:
In the United States, most state registration boards require a degree from an accredited professional degree program as a prerequisite for licensure. The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), which is the sole agency authorized to accredit U.S. professional degree programs in architecture, recognizes three types of degrees: the Bachelor of Architecture, the Master of Architecture, and the Doctor of Architecture. A program may be granted a 6-year, 3-year, or 2-year term of accreditation, depending on the extent of its conformance with established educational standards.
Doctor of Architecture and Master of Architecture degree programs may consist of a pre-professional undergraduate degree and a professional graduate degree that, when earned sequentially, constitute an accredited professional education. However, the pre-professional degree is not, by itself, recognized as an accredited degree.
Morgan State University, School of Architecture and Planning offers the following NAAB-accredited degree programs:
- M. Arch. (pre-professional degree + 36 graduate credits: "3+2 Master of Architecture Degree Program)
- M. Arch. (pre-professional degree + 60 graduate credits)
- M. Arch. (non-pre-professional degree + 90 credits)
Next accreditation visit for all programs: 2017

College Hockey:WJC Returnees Spark Wisconsin Past SCSU
Badgers Flatten Huskies After Disappointing Holidays
ST. CLOUD, Minn. — Maybe two guys do make that much of a difference.
At least in the case of the Wisconsin Badgers, they do. Jeff Likens and Jake Dowell spent the last two weeks in Grand Forks, N.D., playing for the U.S. World Junior team. The rest of their regular team spent the time getting embarrassed at home, sputtering to a disappointing second-place finish in the Badger Showdown.
The tandem was back in red Friday night, and even though Wisconsin didn't need any motivational help getting up for this weekend's series with St. Cloud State, the two provided a spark.
And that spark turned into an all-out fire, as the Badgers thumped St. Cloud State 6-0 before 5,861 disappointed onlookers inside the National Hockey Center
"It's been pretty intense since I got back," said Dowell, who set up three of the first four Badger goals. "The guys filled me in on what happened last weekend, so we were real focused going into tonight."
That was the case from the opening faceoff, as the Badgers quieted the building early and often. And when they needed help, Bernd Bruckler was there with support, turning away all 30 St. Cloud State shots to pick up his second consecutive shutout against the Huskies.
Wisconsin jumped the Huskies for two goals in the first period. Tom Gilbert started the onslaught, getting the Badgers on the board with a power-play goal just over four minutes into the game.
Andrew Joudrey set up Gilbert's goal, and then made it 2-0 some 10 minutes later. After a St. Cloud State turnover in the left-wing corner, Joudrey gathered the errant puck and skated out into the slot untouched, circled the crease waiting for Boron to commit, then lifted a backhand upstairs.
It could have been worse. Joudrey's goal swung the momentum towards the Badgers, and the play stayed in the St. Cloud State end for the rest of the period. Gilbert had a terrific chance to make it 3-0, but Boron got a toenail on his shot.
Gilbert got him back early in the second, with another power-play goal just 20 seconds in, ripping a one-timer from the right-wing circle that beat Boron low and to the stick side.
"I got a hold of that one," said Gilbert.
It was the apparent backbreaker, but the Huskies did have chances to get back in the game in the middle period. Bruckler turned away all of them, and made his best save on a shot from Mike Doyle, camped in the slot during a St. Cloud State 5-on-3 advantage. Wisconsin killed off the front half of the two-man advantage, then put the game out of reach.
A.J. Degenhardt fought off a pair of Huskies at his own blueline, forcing the puck to center ice, then beat everybody to it before racing in on Boron shorthanded. Degenhardt made move to his left, then shoved a shot into the net.
"The second period was the difference," said St. Cloud State head coach Craig Dahl. "We had 32 shot attempts to their 10 but got outscored 2-0. That says it all."
Wisconsin head coach Mike Eaves agreed.
"We took advantage of the chances we had," said Eaves, whose Badgers improved to 14-6-1 overall and more importantly 11-4 in the WCHA, keeping themselves on top of the league standings.
Forth-liner John Funk added a pair of garbage goals in the third, emptying the building with over 10 minutes to go in the game.
"It's embarrassing," said St. Cloud State senior Dave Iannazzo, who had a number of chances end up under Bruckler. "It's our own building and we didn't have any fans in the stands in the third period. This is not the team we've had all season. It's flat-out unexplainable, but we're not getting the job done.
Iannazzo led a players-only meeting after the game, and basically told them the same thing.
"It comes down to work ethic," he said. "And it wasn't there tonight."
It should be Saturday, and the Badgers are well aware of that.
"No team likes to get swept in the WCHA, especially at home," said Gilbert. "We'll have to play even better tomorrow night if we want to get out of here with two wins."

From 6:30 p.m., guests were welcomed into the new location to enjoy beverages from the events sponsors Juice Press and Martha Clara Vineyard. An art show curated by Lorinda Ash was displayed around the venue featuring local artists. With work from artists including Ross Bleckner and Eric Freeman and a portion of all proceeds going to the Children's Museum of East End, the exhibition will run until through the summer until Labor Day.
Alexandra Lebenthal commented on the opening: "We brought a very successful team from Morgan Stanley to Lebenthal Wealth Advisors in February. One of the new advisors, Andy Stern, lives in Amagansett year round, so we opened the office here. We do have room to expand so are currently talking to other financial advisors, and are also currently planning a Friday afternoon investment roundtable for women that will be held at the Bridgehampton office on August 15."
Attendees included: James A Lebenthal, Jonathan and Lizzie Tisch, Andy Stern, Carrie Gallaway, Jimmy Lebenthal, Bonnie Lautenberg, Randy Slifka, Wilbur Ross, Hilary Geary, Bryan Hunt, Lucy Winton, Noelle Beck, Jesse Pasca, Spencer Peterson, Pamela Boulet, Amy Heilberg, Rajan Mantani, Eric Freeman, Ross Bleckner, Tatiana Platt, Randy Polumbo, Sari Mandel, Susan Zises.

I was invited to join the editorial team of HungryGoWhere after winning a contest on their site. Winning was unexpected for me, as I had submitted my entry for this contest very hastily.
It began with me typing a paragraph in my phone while getting off a bus, expressing my views on food bloggers and how social media can influence our dining options and eating habits. I guess I came across as keen to discuss and explore these topics further, which led to my entry being selected.
I am a culinary student but I love to eat more than I love to cook. I am constantly exploring new and affordable places to dine, keeping myself updated with the latest news and trends. I was very excited to be given this opportunity to visit the offices of HungryGoWhere, as this is the place where interesting food media and content is produced, discussed and presented. This is where I am able to meet people who are into food and social media as much as I am.

When I arrived at the office, I was introduced to the team and started to understand the different roles that contribute to the success of the website. I was immediately given a desk and assigned tasks to complete. I was bestowed ownership of the official HungryGoWhere Instagram account. I was humbled by such a great responsibility — photos and captions from me would be viewed by thousands of followers on their phones! I began 'work' right away and started researching new dining places that the website could feature.
Next, I was given a choice of three places to select for lunch. The editor of HungryGoWhere was taking me out for lunch (she pays for it out of her own pocket first, and we dine anonymously), and I had to write a restaurant review after our visit! I read up on the different places and chose Miska Cafe, a Mediterranean restaurant at Quayside Isle. I was interested in this place as it was quite new and did not have much social media coverage online yet. I had also heard a lot about Quayside Isle, and wanted to experience the destination myself.
As Christmas was just around the corner, the editor also wanted me to conduct a taste test and recommend my favourite gingerbread men cookie to our readers. So after lunch, we headed to VivoCity to shop for cookies. We searched high and low for cookies from different bakeries and cafes, finding cookies in different shapes, sizes and genders. It was fun bringing these back in the office; we broke off the arms and legs of the gingerbread men and shared them with the team.

Then, I proceeded to start my restaurant review of Miska Cafe while the lunch experience was still fresh in my mind. As a culinary student, I know that a chef has to work very hard to produce all the dishes in the menu. A simple sauce may take hours of preparation in the kitchen. So I chose my words for the review carefully — a restaurant's image and reputation might be affected based on how readers respond to my review.
In the evening, we went to the launch of a new restaurant in River Valley: Tony's Pizzas. This was very exciting for me as well, as I have not been to a restaurant launch party before. The restaurant was lively and crowded and full of personalities. The pizza chef was spinning pizzas to entertain the crowd and demonstrating the construction of the pizza from scratch. I was introduced to different people and I was genuinely happy to be there.
My day as a guest food critic was very eventful and fruitful. Being a food critic is not an easy job, and there is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes, such as managing relationships with clients and generating content that is impartial and interesting enough to engage new readers. I am very thankful for this 'one-day internship' at HungryGoWhere, and I wish the team all the best in the coming year!

Do recent NFL drafts suggest a shift in "premium" positions?
The conventional wisdom — and the salary structure — says that there are four premium "positions" in the NFL, and teams need to get quality players at those positions. Quarterback. Offensive (left) tackle. Outside pass-rusher. Cornerback. And yet, during the past five years, teams drafting in the top dozen picks have strayed from that strategy.
Quarterback: 2
Offensive tackle: 3
Outside passrusher: 3
Cornerback: 0
Other: 4
Comment: Two receivers went in the top dozen, with the Raiders seeming to reach for Heyward-Bey.
Quarterback: 1
Offensive tackle: 2
Outside passrusher: 3
Cornerback: 1
Other: 5
Comment: The "other" includes linebackers Jerod Mayo and Keith Rivers, who are playmakers but not primarily pass-rushers.
Quarterback: 1
Offensive tackle: 2
Outside passrusher: 2
Cornerback: 0
Other: 7
Comment: Two running backs and two receivers (including Ted Ginn Jr.) in top 12. A great cornerback (Darrelle Revis) slipped to No. 14.
Quarterback: 3
Offensive tackle: 1
Outside passrusher: 1
Cornerback: 0
Other: 7
Comment: Two safeties in the top 12. Ernie Sims and A.J. Hawk are primarily run and coverage linebackers.
Quarterback: 1
Offensive tackle: 0
Outside passrusher: 2
Cornerback: 3
Other: 6
Comment: Three running backs in top 5, including Ronnie Brown. We may never see that again.
Which players man the premium positions in the AFC East?
Quarterback: Chad Henne
Left tackle: Jake Long
Top cornerback: Vontae Davis
Top pass-rusher: Cameron Wake
Comment: Since Bill Parcells, Jeff Ireland and Tony Sparano took over, the Dolphins have invested two first-round picks and two second-round picks on traditionally premium positions (including Sean Smith) and plucked Wake out of the CFL. Wake, at 28, is the oldest of the group.
Quarterback: Mark Sanchez
Left tackle: D'Brickashaw Ferguson
Top cornerback: Darrelle Revis
Top pass-rusher: Calvin Pace
Comment: This is why the Jets figure to be dangerous for a while. They were already loaded with young talent at these spots, and they've already added 25-year-old former Pro Bowl cornerback Antonio Cromartie. Imagine if pass-rusher Vernon Gholston gets a clue.
Quarterback: Tom Brady
Left tackle: Matt Light
Top cornerback: Leigh Bodden
Top pass-rusher: Tully Banta-Cain
Comment: Brady's elite, and Light is a proven veteran. But the Patriots' defense isn't anything special anymore, and that's evident by the lack of starpower on this list. Banta-Cain, a former seventh-round pick, was a surprise last season, outplaying pricier Adalius Thomas.
Quarterback: Trent Edwards
Left tackle: Demetrius Bell
Top cornerback: Terrence McGee
Top pass-rusher: Aaron Schobel
Comment: Much work to do. Bell is a seventh-round project. Edwards has regressed. McGee is a good player, and the other starting cornerback (former No. 11 overall pick Leodis McKelvin) has a chance to be. Schobel is second in the NFL in sacks since 2001 (to Jason Taylor).

* A boxscore an play-by-play are located in the LINKS box to the right, and a more detailed recap will be posted shortly.
EUGENE - Sophomore Jessica Moore staked her third win in as many Civil War starts to lead the No. 19 University of Oregon softball team (31-11, 3-7) to a 7-1 decision over Oregon State (18-17, 1-9) in Thursday's Civil War series opener at Howe Field.
Moore (16-6) posted her 10th complete game of the season, struck out four, walked five and gave up six hits. The Sutter, Calif., native pitched six shutout innings until the Beavers scored their only run with on a one-out, sixth-inning sacrifice fly.
Beating its third Pac-10 opponent this season, UO scored one run in the third, and added three more runs in both the fourth and sixth innings.
The first run came via a single by sophomore Samantha Pappas to center field, and scored freshman Courtney Ceo from second base after the centerfielder made an error fielding the ground ball.
An inning later, senior Kaitlin Vitek opened the fourth with her sixth homer of the season – the team's 50th of the season. After freshman Alexa Peterson reached on a hit by pitch, and sophomore Allie Burger singled via a bunt, Ceo singled in the next run. Sophomore Kaylan Howard drove in the final inning's run on a sacrifice fly to center field.
In the sixth inning, Peterson singled and Burger reached on an error to start the inning. Pappas knocked in her second run via a single to shortstop, and senior Monique Fuiava followed with a two-run double to left field. For the Lynwood, Calif., native Fuiava, it was her 35th career-wise, and moved her into sole possession of sixth all-time for UO – breaking a three-way tie with Katie Mackey and Lindsey Welch (34).
For the game, Ceo went 2-for-3 and turned in her team-leading 18th multi-hit game of the season – twice as most as the next-best hitters on the team (Burger, Fuaiva – 9).
Pappas also went 2-for-3, and four other Ducks had one hit (Burger, Fuiava, Peterson and Vitek).
For OSU, starter Tina Andreana (5-8) pitched the first 3.1 innings, struck out four, walked two, allowed five hits, and two of her four runs allowed was earned. Paige Hall worked the final 2.2 innings, struck out two, walked one, gave up three hits, and all three of her runs allowed were earned.
Held to one run or less for the sixth time in 10 Pac-10 games this year, the Beavers stranded three runners in both the fourth and sixth innings. The first two batters in each both reached base, and a third batter also got on after two outs, but Moore forced foul pop-outs to end each threat.
Looking ahead, Friday's second game of the series will start at 6 p.m., and will be televised live by the Oregon Sports Network on Comcast Sports Net NW
Promotions-wise, Friday's game is 'Crowd Howe' Day, with special Student Night/Greek Night and O-Heroes Night. As part of the 'Go Green' theme, fans that wear their bike helmet or bring two cans of food receive free admission.
The two teams will also meet again Saturday in the series finale that starts at noon.

As a Boulder County Cyclist...
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
From the Daily Camera
On Thursday Oct. 14 Boulder County Parks and Open Space will open up another critical link for the Dirty Bismarck off-road recreational loop. This is another example of why you should support open space and vote yes on 1B.
Marshall Valley to Marshall Mesa to Cowdrey Draw to the new Mayhoffer-Singletree trail to a soon-to-be-built connector to Coalton to High Plains to Greenbelt Plateau to Community Ditch to Coal Seam. This will make an all dirt loop mirroring the route of the Morgul-Bismarck Loop of the Coors International Bicycle Classic from the 1980s. This will be an awesome four-season loop trail!
You should vote yes on ballot issue 1B this year. You love biking in Boulder County. You enjoy Hall Ranch, Heil Valley Ranch, Walker Ranch and Betasso Preserve. A vote for 1B will get you more trails -- including another Hall Ranch sized recreational open space park and the possibility of connecting existing parks like the Picture Rock Trail did for Hall and Heil.
Some of the best, last private property in the county is up for sale. If we don`t buy it now, private developers will. And they won`t build biking trails, organic farms or wildlife corridors. Please spread the word. Vote yes on 1B and support open space, recreation, our economy, ecosystems and wildlife. For more info check out yesonopenspace.org.
The most important thing you can do to support MountainBike Alliance`s closest partner in building world-class single track is to spread the word. Please take the time to send an e-mail to educate your friends and colleagues.
President, Boulder MountainBike Alliance
Written with the help from those concerned
You have a chance, right now, to affect the future enjoyment of our sport.
You owe it to yourself to vote yes on County Ballot Issue 1B.
Simply put, Boulder County has run out of money to buy open space. Now, it's easy to say in this down economy that open space taxes just aren't a priority. But for cyclists, open space is as important as the rides we do every weekend. We rely on public land to have trails to ride. Or to have open spaces next to the roads we pedal. Those pieces of nature are a big part of why we live here.
And here's why it's a priority right now: the parcels of land for sale have great impact for cyclists. If we help the county buy them, we will see more trails near Boulder, as well as the protection of open land along Highway 36. Vote no on 1B, and your road ride north of Nelson might feature 250 homes instead of hawks, coyotes and wide-open horizon. Those will be gone forever.
|From Picture Rock Trail
And don't forget about recent trail projects paid for by open space taxes: Wild Turkey, Picture Rock, the Betasso/Benjamin loop, and the Rock Creek/Coal Creek connector.
Besides, the tax isn't much of a hardship. Spend $100, and 15 cents of it goes to open space. Not a bad deal for what open space does for us. Not only does it provide access to the beauty of nature and recreational opportunities, but it helps our businesses, our community and our quality of life.
Preserving open space has been part of Boulder County's heritage for decades. Let's not be the generation that won't contribute.

Love this information here!
Today in the daily camera a letter to the editor complains that BMA should stop with the call for access (below) and then the guys at 303 posted a video of rider access issues in WA http://303cycling.com/access-issues-for-cyclist. If no access is given then cyclist aren't going to support the tax and if access isn't given some will get their own access on their own and that nobody wants.
Drop request
for trail access
E nough already! Regarding Saturday`s letter from the president of Boulder MountainBike Alliance, Jason Vogel, supporting passage of Boulder County Issue 1B.
I`ve always advocated purchase of more open space -- it`s an important part of what makes Boulder special; and I wholeheartedly encourage athletic activity of all kinds, including mountain biking. My fervent wish, however, is that organizations like the BMA will be content with the already sprawling network of biking trails and with the "awesome four-season loop trail" that will open to them on Thursday, Oct. 14.
On behalf of those of us who enjoy quiet contemplative running, hiking and walking in the woods, I ask that they drop their request for biking access to the Enchanted Mesa and Mesa Trails west of town.
The recent gouging out of so-called non-native growth up there is bad enough -- the thought of bringing mountain bikes back to those areas is appalling and should be unacceptable. Let`s not make these Mesa Trails another Boulder Creek Path.

During the Nov 22, 2012 Detroit Lions/Houston Texans game, Lions head coach Jim Schwartz challenged a scoring play where the runner appeared to be down by contact. Since scoring plays are automatically reviewed, Schwartz was correctly penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct. However, it does not appear there was any review of the play at all. What exactly happened, and why?
See NFL Rulebook rule 15 section 9.
Houston RB Justin Forsett touched the field (knee and elbow) and should have been called down. The play would have been reviewed, as are all scoring plays, and the ruling on the field would have been overturned.
Because Schwartz threw the challenge flag on a play he couldn't challenge by rule, the play could no longer be reviewed. Instead, The ruling on the field stands and the offending team also gets a 15 yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct.
That's the rule.

Seward County Lady Saints Basketball player Rachel
Barnes has been named the NJCAA National Player of the Week for her
performances in two Seward wins last week. The sophomore from Windsor,
Connecticut averaged 21.5 points and 9.5 rebounds in Seward County wins
over 7-2 Clarendon and 8-0 Frank Phillips. In Friday's win over
Clarendon, Barnes scored a career high 30 points and had 7 rebounds in
just 23 minutes of play followed by a 23 point, 12 rebound, 6 assist
effort against then undefeated Frank Phillips. Barnes will lead the
Lady Saints into battle Wednesday against arch rival Hutchinson at 6:00
in the Greenhouse in Seward's Jayhawk West Conference opener.
The game airs on B107.5 and kscbnews.net.

With the spike in temperatures comes swimsuit season. Here are some tips and tricks to help you feel your best at the pool, on the beach and on vacation!
1. Know your measurements. As fit models change from brand to brand, swimsuit sizes vary from one manufacturer to another. Two measurements that will take you a long way: dress size and vertical body type (VBT). Go down one size from your dress size for a good fit. If your dress size is an 8, your swimsuit size is usually a 6. VBT tells you if you have an average, short or long torso which makes it easier to choose the right suit for your body type. You may need to buy a petite or tall suit, even if you are of average height.
2. Choose your activities. In Austin, will you be doing cannonballs into Barton Springs, lounging by the pool at the W or watching flicks at Deep Eddy? Or instead will you take a trip to the coast to long board? Choose your suit based on your activity. The more lounging you'll be doing, the trendier your suit can be.
3. Support the girls. What are your bra preferences? Do you prefer tie straps, regular bra-type straps, or a halter-style strap? If you need to minimize broad shoulders, use regular type bra straps. Also avoid halter top styles if you have neck problems. Jump up and down in the dressing room to make sure the suit is secure.
4. Tankinis (like this one from Kenneth Cole) look good on no one. The tops ride up and the compression is nil, so they make most women look heavier than they actually are. If you're not quite brave enough to wear a bikini try a monokini or a tank suit with cutouts for an on trend look.
5. Want the functionality of a traditional racing suit, but not the boredom it induces? Try mixing and matching. Stylish options include boy short or Capri bottoms with bikini or bra tops, like those available at Athleta. Consider wearing a rash guard over your bikini top so you can stay in the sun without worrying about getting burned.
6. Protect yourself while trying on suits! Wear a skimpy pair of underwear or a thong when trying on swimsuits. While specialty stores offer paper thongs as an option, they come in only one size: small. Those paper liners "for safety" have probably been worn against a number of bodies, so wash your suit before wearing it for the first time.
7. Spend money on your suit, not your cover up! Cover ups are overpriced and aren't often worn. Here are some cute cover up options. Try throwing on a pair of jorts and a gauzy peasant top from Forever 21 over your suit. You can just wear the top or bottom with flip flops as you cruise the beach or pool. For a more sophisticated option, try a flowy ankle length skirt from H&M with an open knit sweater from Macys that shows your bikini top through it. For an easy swim to dinner option, consider using a strapless sundress from SOMA as your cover up.
8. Do wash your suit to remove chlorine, sand, sunscreen and sweat, which can break down the fibers in your suit. Wash your suit by hand with your regular liquid laundry detergent or a swimsuit soap, not Woolite. Woolite will break down the fibers in your suit more quickly than regular detergent.
9. There are great inexpensive options in Austin for finding the perfect suit. For budget suits try retail outlets such as Target or Costco. Costco usually has a one piece and a bikini option available to size 18, but these styles will not be listed on their website. Buy a couple of suits and try them on in the bathroom afterwards so you don't have to make the trip back to the store for a return.
10. For higher end, longer lasting suits, try Everything But Water or East Side Bikinis in Austin. Everything But Water has options to size 16 (so dress size 18). They carry both trendy, fun suits as well as slimming options such as the Miraclesuit brand. If you don't quite know what you want, their staff is helpful and knowledgeable, regardless of where you fall on the size spectrum. East Side Bikinis will design your dream suit or recreate an old favorite suit. Their available fabrics are varied, with over 40 solids and 200 prints from which to choose. Note that it can take awhile to get custom suits made during summer time, so act earlier rather than later for a custom creation.
Whatever suit you choose, make sure it's in a color that makes you happy and brings a smile to your face. as there are so many styles available, you will be able to find swimwear that suits your body and your budget. Happy Summer!

You Tube can provide a person with hours and hours of entertainment and this week I found the latest thing trending on You Tube. However, it appears I am a bit late in my discovery. The Harlem Shake videos are all over the web and have been viewed by millions prior to my discovery. I must say my wife and I got a good laugh at the Harlem Shake videos on You Tube. How did it take so long for me to see these videos.
I have attached a link that explains what the NPR has found to be the start of what we all now know of as the Harlem Shake.
The video at the beginning of this post was definitely in my top 5. If you have a good one, I'd love to view it. Please attach a link in the comment section or direct me what to search for on You Tube or anywhere else it could be on the web.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I have. I was able to find some videos made in Duluth, Minnesota. They are attached at the end of the post.
Have fun!

The Swiss Franc increased in value against 16 other currencies on worries that the situation in the Middle East and North Africa may bring about a disruption of oil supplies. Furthermore, a report showing acceleration in February's inflation gave rise to speculation regarding a possible hike in interest rates.
Meanwhile, the Euro currency traded mixed; the 17-nation currency weakened against most of its counterpart currencies as Portugal was asked to make a bigger payment during a debt auction. This showed that investors are concerned about the fact that the region is having a tough time containing the debt crisis. However, the Euro rose somewhat on rumors that the European Central Bank may buy securities from the countries in debt. Evidence of such a move was supported by the ECB's inquiry into the prices of Irish Bonds. The British Pound rose against the greenback as reports indicated that trade deficit went down and exports rose to a record high.
Yesterday's FX news revealed that the central bank of New Zealand lowered interest rates by 50 basis points, thus causing a drop in the currency's value.
In Canada, the central bank raised its second-quarter foreign exchange rate forecast for the Euro versus the Dollar as ECB's President Jean-Claude-Trichet hinted at increasing the cost of borrowing money.
Australia's Dollar dipped in value on the announcement that home-loan approvals diminished for the first month of the year. The monetary unit recovered after Glenn Stevens, Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia's, reaffirmed that this did not indicate a major problem.

Best Lyricists of 2011 (So Far)
(This list includes only those artists who released an album between January and August of this year)
A brilliant lyricist is one who not only crafts a hook that is appealing to the listener, but also one who succeeds in conveying palpable, genuine emotion through his or her words. Yet at the same time, he or she must have an inherent feel for how to express certain emotions at certain times. Take anger for example, a universal feeling. At times, the expression of anger requires all the subtlety of a sledgehammer. In other instances, the anger being conveyed is one that is slightly more indirect, and requires an abstract execution in terms of how it is presented to the listener in the lyrics. This calls for maybe an absence of those f-bombs and perhaps a little more intricacy. It is a fine line to say the least, but one that a gifted lyricist has an innate ability to manage and discern. Above all, the songs created must not only communicate emotion (complex and simple) in a manner that draws the listener in and connects with him or her, but also ultimately reach beyond personal feeling and delve deeper into the intrinsic nature of human spirit and existence, whether by purpose or accident. An entire experience is created from their words. Here are the top lyricists of 2011 so far:
Note: This is not a judgment of the albums or artists overall, but purely on lyrical content.
5. Cass McCombs, Wit's End (Lyricist: Cass McCombs)
Cass McCombs has finally begun to gain some of the recognition that he deserves with the release of his fifth album, Wit's End. McCombs succeeds best in creating settings and physical representations with his lyrics. He conveys emotion through tapping into striking visual imagery to form an analogy, metaphor or symbol. This is seen in "Buried Alive" when he begins with, "Waking up to the breath of the ore/ in the sea of Black / If you cut a worm in two the other half will grow black" to convey the message that his soul will live on after death. Though this approach can sometimes appear cliché and forced if implemented by a lesser talent, McCombs is skilled enough to avoid these traps and craft exceptional lyrics.
Highlights: "County Line," "Buried Alive," "Memory's Stain"
4. The Antlers, Burst Apart (Peter Silberman)
Their last album, Hospice, was an emotional rollercoaster of a record that somewhat stuck to a narrative of a relationship between a terminally ill patient and a hospice worker. Having already established himself as a lyricist who could deal a heavy emotional punch to his listeners, Peter Silberman followed that up with a record that contained no glaring concept or narrative structure. The result is a scattered but personal LP whose lyrics still show why Silberman is a force to be reckoned with in the lyrical realm. A little light comes in every now and again, but for the most part he sticks with somber situations and feelings of failure and despair. In "No Windows," Silberman almost revels in the idea of going through life in isolation, expressing how he would be hardly missed if tragedy struck. Serious stuff, yes, but these are emotions that all have dealt with or felt at one time or another. Some lyricists simply have a gift for conveying the darkness of human emotion, and Silberman is one of those.
Highlights: "No Windows," "Parentheses," "Every Night My Teeth Are Falling Out"
3. TV on the Radio, Nine Types of Light (Lyricists: Tunde Adebimpe and Kyp Malone)
Coming off of two previous albums that abstractly protested the current state of the world, TV on the Radio tweaked their lyrical approach a bit on Nine Types of Light. Rather than brilliantly channeling their anger into a critique on a larger issue ("DLZ'), these rockers explore a new subject: love. Though the lyrics may seem a little more straightforward and direct than in previous outings, there is still much underlying conflict beneath the surface. Is "You" an unapologetic declaration of love, or does the lover have a warped idea of the state of the relationship and his actions? Never underestimate TV on the Radio.
Highlights: "Killer Crane," "You," "Will Do"
2. Radiohead, The King of Limbs (Lyricist: Thom Yorke)
Obviously, there is no need for an introduction with these guys. One of the most revered rock groups of the twenty-first century, Thom Yorke has always matched the otherworldly sound with fittingly cryptic lyricism. At times one has to wonder whether Yorke himself is truly of this world, considering his unprecedentedly unique perspective communicated through the songs, coupled with an imagery and symbolism that is totally distinct from any other artist. Similar to the music on the album, King of Limbs showcases a slightly different lyrical approach for Thom, although some of that eerie imagery remains intact. On "Codex," the listener finds Yorke in a rare peaceful state, urging himself or another to "jump off the end/ into a clear lake." As with most Yorke constructions, however, a paranoia and uneasiness rests underneath this peaceful surface, perhaps in this case a false feeling of innocence or a final resignation. Eight albums into his lyrical career with Radiohead, Thom Yorke is still able to invoke apprehension and discomfort in his audience. The listener, even on the more minimalistic Limbs can still feel every twinge of guilt and anxiety that haunts Yorke.
Highlights: "Codex," "Give Up the Ghost," "Lotus Flower"
1. Bon Iver, Bon Iver (Lyricist: Justin Vernon)
For the most part, Justin Vernon chooses to embrace broader compositions on the follow-up to his cult classic For Emma, Forever Ago. Yet his lyrics remain firmly entrenched in personal relationships and struggles. In possibly his strongest lyrical performance yet, he laments in "Holocene" that "And at once I knew I was not magnificent/ High above the highway aisle/Jagged vacance, thick with ice." Clearly, For Emma was not an accidental lyrical masterpiece, and it appears that Justin Vernon's lyrics are only improving with time. Few can articulate raw emotion so delicately and connect on a powerful level with the audience as well.
Highlights: "Holocene," "Calgary," "Towers"
Honorable Mentions:
Kurt Vile, Smoke Ring for My Halo (Lyricist: Kurt Vile)
Vile has an indelible ear for a great lyrical hook, yet does not sacrifice real emotion or brutal honesty in the process of creating one.
Tyler, the Creator, Goblin (Lyricist: Tyler Okonma)
This rap artist seems to specialize in shockingly dark lyrics, but beneath the bravado is an insightful commentary on the state of society.
Fleet Foxes, Helplessness Blues (Lyricist: Robin Pecknold)
Beautiful images of nature abound in Robin Pecknold's lyrics, yet there are authentic stories of human struggle underneath the splendor.
Wild Beasts, Smother (Lyricist: Hayden Thorpe)
No deep interpretations needed here, but simplicity, literary references and unabashed emotional honesty works for the Wild Beasts on Smother.

CONJURE ONE - Under The Gun EP by KarezoidWatch
©2013-2016 Karezoid
I'm just observing his works and trying to figure out, with reference to this cover, as will be the cover of the next album by Conjure One
I love Conjure One!!!! This is a marvelous cover art!!
Can you tell me what font you used for his name? Love it.
well done.. lovely work
This looks great! But i don't like the font treatment at all. There's 3 lines of text, 3 colours, 3 style variations. That's simply too much. It's okay to mix lowercase with all caps of the same font for the first 2 lines, but the 3rd line sticks out like a sore thumb. And then, there is the kerning/tracking (the gaps between letters): the second line to me reads like "UNDE R THE GUN".
Hi. Yes I see now that's the error between the E and E in album title. About three different colors and fonts. Sometimes you must do what client wants .
Congratulations on this work!
Oh yeah, Rhys Fulber does some great work. Always like your photography!
well done!!!

Fox has announced that its popular "24" TV series will begin the new season with a premiere covering four hours over two nights.
That's a lot of prime time hours to devote to one show, but zap2it.com pointed out Thursday the formula generated great ratings last winter.
The coming season takes place nearly two fictional years after agent Jack Bauer's last cliffhanger concluded. Some horrific terrorist attacks have occurred in the meantime, and Wayne Palmer is now president.
The cast will include a number of new faces, including veteran actor James Cromwell as Bauer's estranged dad.

Just when you thought it was safe to pack those Rock Band drums up and cram them into the far reaches of your wardrobe; the guys at Harmonix are back with a Green Day –specific release of their highly popular series of rhythm games.
Unlike The Beatles: Rock Band, this will be a software release only. So fans of the band hoping to get their hands on a replica of Billie Joe's famous "Blue" guitar will be left disappointed. The good news though is that all previous Rock Band peripherals will be compatible, making it easier than ever to start rocking.
The core gameplay elements found here are completely unchanged from those of previous games, but if the formula works then there's really no point in making drastic changes. The unique element is found in the main portion of the game, which chronicles the bands rise to superstardom, and unlike The Beatles offering you're allowed to choose your songs as you progress as oppose to having them forced upon you. Another key point is in the animation process, which sees unique movements used to authenticate certain songs, as oppose to replaying the same tired patterns on alternating loops.
The game will feature a 47 track setlist exclusive to Green Day, instead of games such as Guitar Hero: Metallica, which feature an array of songs from the band and then a selection from other artists. The complete setlist is as follows…
21st Century Breakdown, American Idiot, American Eulogy, Are We Waiting/St. Jimmy, Basket Case, Before the Lobotomy, Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Brain Stew/Jaded, Burnout, Chump, Coming Clean, Emenius Sleepus, Extraordinary Girl, F.O.D., Geek Stink Breath, Give Me Novacaine/She's a Rebel, Good Riddance (Time of Your Life), Having a Blast, Hitchin' a Ride, Holiday, Homecoming, Horseshoes and Handgrenades, In The End, Jesus of Suburbia, Last Night on Earth, Letterbomb, Longview, Minority, Murder City, Nice Guys Finish Last, Peacemaker, Pulling Teeth, Restless Heart Syndrome, Sassafrass Roots, See The Light, She, Song of the Century, The Static Age, ¿Viva La Gloria? (Little Girl), Wake Me Up When September Ends, Warning, Welcome to Paradise, Whatsername, When I Come Around.
A very impressive list indeed and one that will please Green Day fans no end. The list includes the full line-up's from critically albums Dookie and American Idiot, plus over half of the tracks from their newest album, 21st Century Breakdown – the rest of which can be obtained from purchasing the 'Plus' edition of the game. The tracks will also be available as downloadable content if you wish to purchase them at a later date.
All tracks will also be exportable to both Rock Band and Rock Band 2 for a small fee, although this can be waivered if you shell out for the 'Plus' edition. You can also dodge the fee if you take advantage of various offers stores such as GameStop are offering.
The game will feature a whole host of unlockable media content in the form of photographs and raw video footage that should act as bait for the more hardcore fans amongst us.
Green Day: Rock Band will be released worldwide on June 8th for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii consoles.
Craig Bryan, NoobFeed
This game isn't in my list of purchases, but I sense great news for the fans of Green Day and Rock Band!
Good news for the music fans but this isn't really my type of game.
Yeah baby, this one's coming home on day-1 :D

Mobility now driving the industryWed, 9 Sep 2013
It's apparent that the world's appetite for electronics has never been greater. That has increasingly taken the form of mobile electronics, including smartphones, tablets and tablets and the new "phablets." People want to watch movies and live sports on their phones.

Baltimore County News
County Executive Kevin Kamenetz
'Twas the Day After Thanksgiving
'Twas the day after Thanksgiving, when all through the mall,
shoppers stood in long lines that reached the back wall.
With walkways too crowded and parking a mess,
Black Friday was causing consumer distress.
When just down the street, there arose such a glow
from the storefront of a local shopkeeper I know.
He invited us in - even offered us chairs -
and was ever so cheerful while he showed off his wares.
He had handcrafted specialties and homemade delights
and gadgets and gizmos.and the best Christmas lights!
He wrapped what we purchased with delicate care,
and we finished our shopping with a few hours to spare!
So, support small business as you shop this December
for the gifts that'll make this a holiday to remember.
And if you really need another good reason,
don't forget - parking is free - so shop local this season!
Amy Mantay
Baltimore County Department of Planning
While big-box stores and malls are getting ready for Black Friday, some of Baltimore County's traditional Main Streets are getting ready for something a little smaller—something with a little more charm. On Saturday, November 30, Dundalk and Reisterstown join other traditional commercial districts in the fourth annual Small Business Saturday.
By shopping in locally owned businesses on Small Business Saturday, you discover unique gifts you'll never find at the big stores, experience the charm and genuine customer service that you only get from small business owners, and enjoy the sights, the sounds and the beautiful chill in the air that can only be found on Main Street.
In Reisterstown, on historic Main Street, "Holiday Cheer Starts Here!" To kick off the holiday season, businesses are offering a donation discount, which allows consumers to not only shop locally but also give locally. On Small Business Saturday, participating merchants are offering a 10% discount to customers who bring in a canned good donation for the Reisterstown United Methodist Church Food Pantry. When you shop at these small businesses, the money you spend here stays here, and the donations you give stay here, too.
Main Street Dundalk, one of 26 designated Main Street Maryland communities across the state, offers a variety of shopping, eating and entertainment during the holiday season. Dundalk Renaissance Corporation and Little Crystal Bijoux are hosting a Holiday Gallery and Gifts Pop-Up Shop at 79 Shipping Place through December 23. The pop-up shop offers original holiday gifts by local artists and craftsman.
Starting Small Business Saturday, Main Street Maryland is offering a coupon for deals at Dundalk's Holiday Gallery and Gifts Pop-Up Shop. For every $50 spent from November 30 - December 23, you will receive a $10 gift card for your next purchase. You can download the coupon right now.
Baltimore County also offers a great holiday deal: you won't have to feed the meters anywhere in Baltimore County from Thanksgiving Day through December 1. Just look for the red "Seasons Greetings" bags and enjoy the free parking while you support local shops in your neighborhood.
From Catonsville to Pikesville, Essex to Randallstown, get out this Saturday and support your favorite small business. It's a great way to find unique gifts for the folks on your holiday list while you support your local neighborhood business owners. Such a deal!

Baltimore County's "Cease the Grease" program was created to prevent sewage overflows and basement backups resulting from fats, oils and grease (F.O.G.) in the County's sewage system. For residential customers, Baltimore County is implementing a public education program consisting of educational outreach, informational F.O.G. flyers and a page on the County's website. For commercial food service establishments, the County enforces F.O.G. requirements under the Food Service Facility Regulations.
The primary F.O.G. sources are everyday foods such as cooking oil, sauces, butter, shortening, etc. These ingredients make their way into the sewage collection system through kitchen drains. Once inside the system, fats, oils and grease will cool, harden and begin to coat the inside of the sewer pipes. Over time, F.O.G. buildup will clog pipes, restrict the flow of wastewater and result in sewage overflows and/or basement backups. These overflows result in raw sewage overflowing into our streets, parks and homes, exposing the public to harmful disease-causing micro-organisms. In cases of backups on private property, the property owner is often responsible for the cleanup costs. To avoid these overflows and backups:
- Never pour F.O.G. into your sink or toilet. Instead, put F.O.G. into a small can and store in the freezer until full. When it's full, throw it into the trash.
- When there is F.O.G. residue in a pan or on a dish, wipe it with a paper towel before washing and throw the towel in the trash.
- Place a strainer in the kitchen sink drain to catch food scraps and other solids, then empty the strainer into the trash.

Most hybrids combine petrol and electric power to lower emissions and increase efficiency, but that's not the approach that PSA Peugeot Citroen has taken. The engine they're developing with Bosch combines petrol and compressed air.
The French car maker is aiming to achieve economy of 141 mpg by the year 2020 from the new technology and hopes to have the Air Hybrid on the road by 2016. The powertrain, which our shots show currently being tested in a converted Citroen C3, includes a small capacity petrol engine and a unit of compressed air attached to a hydraulic motor pump which is fed through to an automatic gearbox. The car is used in exactly the same way as a 'conventional' petrol / electric hybrid, so there are three modes in which it can be driven – zero emissions, as petrol only or the two combined. The ECU will control the mode depending on the road conditions, but PSA expect that 60% to 80% of city miles will be carried out with zero emissions.
Without the need for a heavy battery pack, the car can be lighter than rivals with petrol / electric power. This will lead to further efficiencies and will give designers more space to work with in the cabin. At the moment the powertrain is returning 97.4mpg and CO2 emissions of 69g/km in a Peugeot 208 or Citroen C3, but further economy will be found when a chassis is designed specifically for the new powertrain.
Peugeot and Citroen will offer this technology in B-segment cars to begin with and then release it in C-segment cars like the 308 and C4. When combined with the firm's new EMP2 platform, which is 70kg lighter than the current platform, perhaps the 141 mpg could become a realistic target.

Once again this offseason, our Saints coverage team has ranked the top 25 players on New Orleans' roster. We'll unveil the list every weekday as we count down to training camp.
The criteria is largely based on one question: Who would be the best players on the field if a game was played today? Past accomplishments and future potential also are taken into account.
There were tough decisions, which likely will lead to plenty of second-guessing. So let the debate begin.
No. 22: OT Zach Strief
Last Year's Rank: 21
Season: 8; Age: 29; Height: 6-7; Weight: 329
Strief had an ugly 2012 season, allowing six or seven sacks (depending on the stat service) in 12 games. A year earlier, Strief allowed only two sacks in 11 games as the starting right tackle. Part of the problem was injury. Strief battled a groin injury midway through the year and tried to come back too early from it. But he also had a nightmare performance against Kansas City early in the year.
We're still willing to give Strief the benefit of the doubt. He had been steady as a well-used backup for six years and starter until last season. He has decent athleticism for his huge frame and has been an asset in the run game, in pass protection and as a down-the-field blocker. He's also a respected leader who was elected as a team captain last season. But obviously Strief can't afford another performance like last year if he wants to hang on to his starting job.
No. 25: DE Kenyon Coleman
No. 24: TE Ben Watson
No. 23: CB Patrick Robinson

TEMPE, Ariz. – The Arizona men's golf team concluded the first round of the 42nd Annual Thunderbird Invitational at ASU's Karsten Golf Course (par-71, 7,013 yards) on Friday. The Wildcats ended with a team total of 284 (E), which was good enough for a fifth place tie.
"The team did a very good job staying patient today," head coach Jim Anderson said. "We did not play our front nine particularly well. Fortunately, no one panicked and we had strong finished on the back nine. Tomorrow, we will look to come out ready to play the front a little better and then roll some positive momentum into the back again."
Arizona State currently leads the field of 15 after shooting 13-under 271. Iowa sits in second place with a team total of 278 (-6).
Leading the Wildcats was junior Alex McMahon who shot one-under 70 and is tied for 12th place. This is McMahon's third time beginning a spring tournament at or below par. In both tournaments with a low start, McMahon finished in the top-15.
Both Erik Oja and Kolton Lapa followed directly behind McMahon shooting 71 (E) and both sit in a tie for 22nd place. Despite a rough start, Benson Liu was able to finish the day shooting 72 (+1) on the day. Although just four scores count towards the team's total, Brenden Redfern ended the day with a 79 (+8).
Round two will continue on Saturday at 7:30 a.m. MST. Live stats will be available at golfstatresults.com. For continued coverage, follow @UAWildcatsGolf on Twitter and Facebook.com/ArizonaWildcatsGolf.


text: UMass pulled off its third dramatic win of the season Wednesday with a 64-63 win at Siena on a Chaz Williams layup with 3.3 seconds remaining. Williams, who scored his 1,000th career point in the game, finished with 23 and Terrell Vinson added 17 to key the comeback. The Minutemen trailed by as many as 17 points late in the first half. Its the third time since January that UMass has erased a 17-poiunt deficit and won a game - against Saint Joseph's at the Mullins Center, at Drexel in the NIT quarterfinals and Wednesday.

About Us
Launched on July 24, 2011, our founders birthday, EponToday features a daily deal on the best stuff to do, see, eat, and buy.
Our company philosophy is pretty simple: we treat our customers the way we like to be treated. That boils down to a few key things:
- We offer deals we want to buy. A great price is only half the battle - it's also got to be a great product or service. Between our top-rated business partners and unbeatable prices, you should feel comfortable venturing out and trying something new - just because it's featured on EponToday. We want EponToday to be an addiction you can feel good about.
- No BS. We really want you to love EponToday. "Gotchas" and buried conditions that sour the experience are a terrible way to accomplish that goal. We want each EponToday purchase to feel too good to be true, from the moment you buy to the day you use it. If there's anything unusual about a deal (e.g. an inconvenient location) we go out of our way to point it out.
- Unbelievable customer service. Like you, we've suffered through voice mail boxes with messages claiming to be customer service departments, or waited days for an email reply to a simple question. If you contact us, we'll do what it takes to make things right - and we'll do it fast. Email us at email@example.com or speak with a human (during normal business hours): (409) 832-4178
EponToday Origins
EponToday grew out of a newspaper called The Examiner, launched in 1996 as an investigative and entertainment resource for the people of Southeast Texas. The Examiner has won numerous national awards due to it's advocacy for the citizens of our community, who may not have a voice otherwise. The Examiner informs educates and entertains on a weekly basis. The Wall Street Journal once referred to The Examiner as "That feisty little paper in Southeast Texas"p>
We came up with the idea for EponToday as an antidote to a common ailment for most consumers: instead of gambling their hard earned money on new places to eat or things to do, sometimes the easiest and safest thing is to go to a familiar restaurant, or just stay at home and watch a movie. As a result, we miss out on trying all the cool things our area has to offer. By focusing on one deep discount on goods or services each day, EponToday makes it simple, and by leveraging The Examiners reputation for honest business practices and being an advocate for what's right, EponToday is able to offer deals that make it very difficult to say no to our daily deals.
While we started EponToday as a side project of The Examiner, it's taken on a life of its own.

Cartoonist Batton Lash has been writing stories about Supernatural Law's lead characters since the late '70s, and he introduces them with a quick question and answer. Q: "Who's scarier than Frankenstein?" A: "His attorneys."
Alanna Wolff and Jeff Byrd first appeared in his weekly comic strip Wolff and Byrd, Counselors of the Macabre, which ran in a Brooklyn newspaper. Later, the lawyers for supernatural creatures, werewolves and vampires included, appeared in comic books, web comics and graphic novels. This year, a Kickstarter campaign for a colored trade paperback of his Supernatural Law story The Werewolf of New York more than doubled its $7,000 goal.
A former New Yorker who hasn't lost his accent, Lash moved to San Diego about 20 years ago for love. He and his wife, Jackie Estrada, run Exhibit A Press, which publishes Supernatural Law. He's also known for his work for Archie Comics, including the story Archie Meets The Punisher, and Bongo Comics, which publishes comic books featuring Simpsons characters.
And recently, he started work on a new web comic called The First Gentleman of the Apocolypse for Aces Weekly. "I'm also drawing the series of a post-apocolyptic high school student named Glory Lori," he adds. "The trial issue came out recently. I'll have copies at the Salt Lake Comic Con."
Lash says he's had ties to Salt Lake City for years, thanks to support from Night Flight Comics, where he's done many signings. He's excited to meet more Utah fans at Salt Lake Comic Con, where he'll appear all three days, Sept. 5–7.
In anticipation for the nerdy event, we got in touch with Lash for a quick Q&A.

Have you always been a fan of monsters?
I grew up in New York, and I'm sure every local TV station ran their version of Chiller Theatre, which I had in New York. And there was the Universal monsters, the B pictures and the 1950s horror stuff. And I'm old enough to remember when Plan 9 From Outer Space was actually scary. It was so frightening, because it was so odd looking. I loved all the monster movies and bought the monster models when they came out, so I've always had affection for them. I still do.
Tell me a little about Wolff and Byrd.
Alanna Wolff and Jeff Byrd are two attorneys who just found a niche for themselves representing the supernatural, because as they say, somebody has to do it. I always thought both of them represented my yin and yang. Alanna is a very sleek, confident, no-nonsense litigator, and she was everything that I always thought a person should be and how I always wished I was—she can give an icy stare that would devistate any opponent. On the other hand, Jeff Byrd, her partner, is a little more easy going and maybe a little intimidated by authority. I'm sorry to say I'm much more like him than her.
How did Supernatural Law get started?
I was freelancing for a local newspaper called The Brooklyn Paper, and they said I could do a comic strip if I wanted to. They distributed mainly along the municipality of downtown Brooklyn, which is where all the courts and civil service places were—lots of attorneys with small firms. And I just thought maybe it would be fun to create a series about attorneys . . . On Court Street, I saw there was family law, employment law, there seemed to be little small operations for every aspect of the law, and I thought maybe if there was one that specialized in supernatural that might be fun. I could draw monsters and just have fun with it. I always thought I would do this until I came up with my big idea that I'd want to do for the rest of my life, and a year into it, I was having so much fun, it occurred to me this is what I've been waiting for.
Any chance for a Supernatural Law cartoon or TV show?
There's a whole separate interview in itself. For the last 25 years, this has been on-and-off optioned for a movie or TV series . . . People are always discovering it, and they climb aboard and very rarely do they get off, but as far as the TV stuff goes, they can't seem to convince their supervisors or people who can green light stuff. Those people just can't see it the way we see it. We're still plugging away. If you know anyone who owns a major studio or network, let me know.
Have to ask: What was the origin of Archie Meets The Punisher?
Victor Gorelick was the production head at Archie Comics and he was moonlighting, doing some lettering for me, so I always kept in touch with him . . . And it just came to a point where we were having lunch one time and I told him my plans to move to San Diego and we were talking about comics in general. I said something along the lines of "You should do a crossover with Archie meeting Jimmy Olsen, and Superman will be confused between the two of them." And he said, "We're not going to do that, but we were kidding with Marvel that Archie could meet the Punisher." And I said, "Boy, that's a great idea!" And he said, "Wow, how could that possibly work?" And I wasn't lobbying for the job, but I said "It's very simple how it could work. You just do A, B and C" . . . And he said "Write that up." And my astute business sense said, "Yeah right." So, I went home and forgot about it, and a week later, he calls me up and says "Where's that outline?" And I said, "You were actually serious about that?'"
Any messages for the Salt Lake City fans?
They're in for a treat, because comic convntions are a lot of fun . . . It's just a great way to escape, and I think when you have other media people like William Shatner and Adam West, it introduces an audience who wouldn't normally read comics to the world of comics. They may be there to see the TV stuff, but when they walk around, they see all of this wonderful medium they may have been either indifferent to or overloooked. And it's the source material for all the great stuff we have now.

Did the SEC Ruin Rakoff's Christmas?
The headline was for effect. No, U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff didn't say the SEC ruined his Christmas. He did, however, note sourly in an order Thursday that he "spent the intervening Christmas holiday" considering the SEC and Citigroup's requests to freeze a lawsuit against the bank over allegations that it defrauded investors.
But he also made a much more serious charge: That the agency misled him and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in seeking to halt the lawsuit while the agency appeals Rakoff's rejection of a $285 million settlement with the Citigroup. FT has the story here.
The Rakoff decision that prompted the appeal, for those of you who still need context at this point, questioned the SEC's practice of settling cases with companies in which they neither admit nor deny wrongdoing. The SEC says requiring admissions of fact in settlements would harm investors because the agency would have to take many more cases to trial, which would burn through its resources and curb its reach.
In Thursday's order, Rakoff said the SEC requested a stay in his court, and the parties discussed an expedited schedule, where Rakoff would issue a decision well before Dec. 30.
On Dec. 27, the SEC filed an emergency application for a stay in the Second Circuit but didn't tell Rakoff, even during a telephone conference with Rakoff hours after they made the filing, he said.
The SEC told the Second Circuit it needed the stay because, without it, Citi would have to respond to its lawsuit by Jan. 3. If the bank denied some of all of the allegations in its response, the settlement would be in jeopardy, the SEC said.
Rakoff believed these statements to be misleading.
Even if Citi filed a motion to dismiss, as a legal matter, that would not constitute and admission or denial, Rakoff said. Plus, in their pleadings with him to freeze the case, neither the SEC nor Citi mentioned Jan. 3 as a key date, Rakoff said.
So, at 4:20 p.m. on Tuesday, the Second Circuit granted the emergency hold without benefit of a lower court ruling. About one minute later, Rakoff issued his order denying the SEC's motion to stay the case, as we wrote about here.
The SEC told the FT it would respond in court.
Thursday's order is embedded below.
