As Eagle stands poised to grow with the new Eagle River Station and Haymeadow developments, the community now needs additional water treatment capacity to meet potential demand.
Tuesday night, the Eagle Town Board began to answer that demand by approving a special use permit for a new lower basin water treatment plant. The new plant will be built immediately east - or upstream - from the town's wastewater treatment plant located near the confluence of Brush Creek and the Eagle River. Preliminary estimates indicate it will cost around $16 million.
The new plant will have an initial capacity of 2.5 million gallons per day and is designed for expansion of up to 5 million gallons per day. It will include two buildings - one covering 32,300 square feet and one covering 1,452 square feet.
"This plant is being designed to accommodate future growth of the town based on the 2010 Eagle Area Community Plan and will be constructed in two or three phases depending on demand," stated the memo prepared by Eagle Town Planner Tom Boni.
During discussion of the plant proposal, town board member Joe Knabel asked about scheduling - specifically the length of the planning period to get the facility up and operational. Eagle Town Engineer Tom Gosoirowski said in all likelihood, the plant is on at least a 30-month schedule to address permitting, financing and 20 months of construction.
Eagle Public Works Director Dusty Walls noted that at present, during the summer, Eagle hits the 80 percent capacity mark for its water system and that's the point when the state wants towns to begin work on new treatment facilities. Mayor Yuri Kostick noted that during the summer, town residents can use up to 2.3 million gallons of water per day but during the winter the number is closer to 500,000.
"It's all about watering lawns," he noted.
The town board unanimously approved the special use permit and Town Manager Willy Powell noted the action marks the beginning of a long process.
"Its not like this is the last action (regarding the new water plant) from the town board," said Powell. He noted demand and financing will play important roles in determining when the plant construction begins, but the community wants to have a "shelf ready" project when those factors indicate it is time to proceed.
In other action the town board:
• Reviewed the Marketing and Events quarterly report presented by Meg Stepanek. She detailed how marketing dollars were spent during 2012 and highlighted proposals for 2013
• Reviewed the third-quarter sales tax data for Eagle. Overall sales tax receipts are up approximately 4 percent over last year.
• Discussed design objectives for the former Swallow Oil site recently purchased by the town. Located at the head of Broadway on the north side of U.S. Highway 6, the town views the land as a "key visual landmark" rather than an active park space. Plans for the site include using part of the ground for a Highway 6 widening project and an expansion of the ECO bike path along with preservation of view corridors through the area.

Irving v. Lipstadt
Defense Documents
David Irving, Hitler and Holocaust Denial: Electronic Edition, by Richard J. EvansTable of Contents
|<< (iv) Irving's suppression...
|< (i) Introduction
|(vi) Conclusion. >
(v) Irving's further arguments.
1. Irving tries to bolster his position with three arguments, all of them spurious. First, he argues that the 'special circumstances and imperatives of ... Ribbentrop, writing under duress in Allied captivity and facing the inevitable death sentence, had to be borne in mind'.17 Irving nowhere explains exactly what these 'special circumstances and imperatives' are. Does he mean the imperative of a condemned man to tell the truth? Or does he mean the imperative to try and exonerate himself before history by arguing that he must have known nothing of the extermination of the Jews because Hitler knew nothing? If Ribbentrop wrote under 'duress' then why does Irving not dispense with the whole document, as he does for example with the memoirs of Rudolf Höss, rather than trying to maintain that this 'duress' was manifest only when Ribbentrop implicated Hitler but not when he did not?
2. Secondly, Irving suggests that Hitler's political testament 'does not explicitly specify a Hitler knowledge [sic] of the extermination.'18 This repeats the argument presented by Irving in his letter to Harold Evans of The Sunday Times, on 14 September 1977. Irving wrote that 'Hitler's Testament was written in April 1945, and Ms. Serenyi [sic] knows it; in any case, its wording is as ambiguous as every other document that has ever been produced purporting to prove Hitler's guilt.'19 Even if true the fact remains that Ribbentrop saw enough in the document to revise his opinion that Hitler knew nothing of the 'Final Solution'. However this is not true. Hitler's political testament, dictated during his last days in the bunker in Berlin, bristled with anti-Semitism. It was brutally clear:
I also made it quite plain that, if the nations of Europe are again to be regarded as mere shares to be bought and sold by those international conspirators in money and finance, then Jewry, the race which is the real criminal in this murderous struggle, will be saddled with the responsibility. I further left no one in doubt that this time millions of Europe's Aryan peoples would not die of hunger, millions of grown men would not suffer death, nor would hundreds of thousands of women and children be allowed to be burnt and bombed to death in the towns, without the real criminal having to atone for his guilt, even if by more humane means.20
3.This passage is in no sense ambiguous. Hitler unmistakably informs posterity that he has made good his threat that 'this time' [i.e. in contrast to World War One] the deaths of millions of Aryans would not go unavenged. This can only refer to his speech before the Reichstag of 30 January 1939. This speech has already been mentioned a number of times above, and was constantly referred to by members of the Nazi leadership during the war when they referred to the extermination of the Jews. In it (it will be remembered) he said:
Today I will once more be a prophet. If the international Jewish financiers inside and outside Europe should once again succeed in plunging the nations into a world war, the result will not be the bolshevization of the world and thus the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation [Vernichtung] of the Jewish race throughout Europe.21
4. With the radicalisation of Jewish policy during the course of the war his 'prophecy' took on a prominent place in Hitler's thinking. On 30 January 1941, for example, Hitler reminded his audience:
And I do not want the remark forgotten, which I once made in the German Reichstag on 1 September 1939. The remark namely, that if the other world is thrown into a general war by Jewry, then the whole of Jewry will be done for in Europe. 22
5. Hitler returned to his 'prophecy' yet again a year later in another speech making it absolutely clear that he now considered himself engaged in a war against the Jews in which either one side or the other would end by being exterminated:
We are certain that the war can only end in that either the Aryan peoples will be exterminated or that Jewry disappears from Europe. I already pronounced before the German Reichstag on 1 September 1939 - and I guard myself against hasty prophecies - that this war will not end as the Jews imagine it will, namely that the European-Aryan peoples will be exterminated, rather that the result of this war will be the annihilation of Jewry. For the first time this time the real ancient Jewish law will be applied, 'an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.'23
6. This 'prophecy' also became common currency in higher Nazi circles, as we have already seen. Here too there was a clear understanding of what it actually meant. The propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels wrote in his diary on 13 December 1941:
Concerning the Jewish question the Führer is determined to make a clean sweep. He predicted to the Jews that if they were to once again bring about a world war, that they would thereby experience their annihilation. That was no idle phrase. The world war is here, the annihilation of Jewry must be the necessary consequence. 24
7.Another leading Nazi, the Governor-General of occupied Poland, Hans Frank, spoke before his government on 16 December 1941 in similar terms which also made it clear what he understood by the phrase 'deportation to the east':
An end must be made with the Jews one way or another - I want to tell you that quite openly. The Führer once pronounced: if united Jewry should once again succeed in unleashing a world war, then the blood-sacrifice will not only be brought by those peoples incited into war, but the Jew in Europe will also meet his end. [...]
But what will happen to the Jews? Do you believe that they will be housed in village settlements in the Ostland? We were told in Berlin: why all the screaming; we can not do anything with them in the Ostland or the Reichskommisariat either, liquidate them yourselves!25
8. Hitler, of course, was considerably less brutal in the language used in his testimony, and used the term 'even if by more humane means'. All this should do, however, is alert the historian to the well-documented fact that murder by gassing was considered (without any justification, it must be added) to be more humane than shooting or starvation, and that Hitler included in his testament the propagandistic point that the killing of civilians by bombing raids, at least when the civilians in question were German, was inhumane.
9. These points can be illustrated by an infamous memorandum of July 1941 in which SS-Sturmbannführer Rolf-Heinz Höppner drew the attention of the Jewish expert of office IV B 4 of the RSHA, Adolf Eichmann, to considerations amongst SS men in the Warthegau regarding the 'solution of the Jewish question'. Point 4 read:
This winter there is a danger that not all of the Jews [of the Warthegau] can be fed anymore. One should weigh up honestly if the most humane solution might not be to finish off those Jews, as far as they are incapable of being put to work, by some quick-working means. At any rate, this would be more pleasant than letting them starve to death.26
10. Irving cited this selfsame document in trying to convince the historian Martin Broszat that there was no Hitler order for the 'Final Solution', rather that it was the result of a number of ad hoc local initiatives.27 And yet the same tale-tell reference to starvation and more humane means of killing occurred both in this document and in Hitler's final testament.
11. Thirdly, Irving claims that he 'had a fund of collateral documentary evidence on which to base his decisions on how to paraphrase or edit over-long documents. This includes the transcript of a conversation, secretly recorded between Ribbentrop and a British officer at this time, relatiung [sic.] to what had happened in these concentration camps.'28 This fact, he further claims, has been overlooked.
12. The transcript referred to does not seem to have been included in Irving's First List of Documents, but presumably this refers to the interrogation of 11 August 1945 cited in Irving's Nuremberg: The Last Battle. Far from being collateral evidence of Hitler not having ordered the destruction of the Jews, it is as contradictory as the Ribbentrop notes detailed above. In Irving's book, Ribbentrop answers the question if Hitler knew of the fate of the Jews in the concentration camps thus:
I have so often thought about that. It would absolutely ruin my picture of Hitler if I thought this. I know one thing, that after the Russians [in September 1944] had taken over the concentration camp in Poland, Majdanek I think it was called, that was the first time I heard of these persecutions in concentration camps, misdeeds, atrocities. This was the first thing I heard when our representatives from abroad sent telegrams that Russian propaganda was making a tremendous row in neutral countries. I got these telegrams and placed them before the Führer. I said that if this were true in any respect it would be quite impossible to make foreign policy. So he took the matter in hand and said it was not my business to discuss this. That's the only thing I heard.29
13. This, therefore, is the first piece of 'collateral evidence' which Irving cites in order to justify his procedure in 'editing' Ribbentrop's testimony.
14. Ribbentrop is likewise quoted in Irving's book on Nuremberg as having said to the Nuremberg psychologist Gilbert: 'You know, I didn't know anything about the exterminations - until the Maidanek affair came out in '44.'30 Thus even by his own admission Ribbentrop did know about the concentration camps and had discussed them with Hitler at the latest in 1944, contradicting his own testimony whilst in the dock. Ribbentrop's account here is as unreliable and self-serving as it is on other aspects of this question.
15. These allegedly 'collateral' pieces of evidence thus in no way justify, as Irving claims they do, the suppression of important parts of Ribbentrop's public and private evidence at Nuremberg in Irving's account. He is not engaged in the neutral 'editing' of 'over-long' documents in order to convey their essential sense in a few words. He is, once more, engaged in the skewing of the evidence by editing out parts of it which run counter to his argument.

20. The translation is that in Jeremy Noakes and Geoffrey Pridham, Documents on Nazism, 1919 - 1945 (London, 1974), 678 - 80, p. 678, but minus a small mistake which translated 'Millionen von Europäern der arischen Völker' as millions of children of Europe's Aryan people'. The German original reads 'Ich habe aber auch keinen Zweifel darüber gelassen, dass, wenn die Völker Europas wieder nur als Aktienpakete dieser internationalen Geld- und Finanzverschwörer angesehen werden, dann auch jenes Volk mit zur Verantwortung gezogen werden wird, das eigentlich Schuldige and diesem mörderishcen Ringen ist: Das Judentum! Ich habe weiter keinen daräber im Unklaren gelassen, dass dieses Mal nicht nur Millionen von Europeäern der arischen Völker verhungern werden, nicht nur Millionen erwachsener Männer den Tod erleiden und nicht nur Hunderttausende an Frauen und Kindern in den Städten verbrannt und zu Tode bombadiert werden dürften, ohne dass der eigentlich Schuldige, wenn auch durch humanere Mittel, seine Schuld zu büssen hat.'

21. Noakes and Pridham, pp. 485 -6. The original reads 'Ich will heute wieder ein Prophet sein: Wenn es dem internationalen Finanzjudentum in und außerhalb Europas gelingen sollte, die Völker noch einmal in einem Weltkrieg zu stürzen dann wird das Ergebnis nicht die Bolschewisierung der Erde und damit der Sieg der Judentums sein sondern die Vernichtung der Jüdischen Rasse in Europa.'

22. 'Und nicht vergessen möchte ich den Hinweis, den ich schon einmal, am 1. September 1939, im deutschen Reichstag gegeben habe. Den Hinweis darauf nämlich, daß, wenn die andere Welt von dem Judentum in einen allgemeinen Krieg gestürzt würde, das gesamte Judentum seine Rolle in Europa ausgespeilt haben wird!' Domarus, p. 1663. The reference to a speech of 1 September 1939 is wrong, that of 30 January 1939 being the only one to contain such a prediction.
23. 'Wir sind uns dabei im klaren darüber, daß der Krieg nur damit enden Kann, daß entweder die arischen Völker ausgerottet werden, oder daß das Judentum aus Europa verschwindet. Ich habe am 1. Septemeber 1939 im deutschen Reichstag es schon ausgesprochen - und ich hüte mich vor voreiligen Prophezeihungen - daß dieser Krieg nicht so ausgehen wird, wie es sich die Juden vorstellen, nämlich daß die europäisch - arishen Völker ausgerottet werden, sonder daß das Ergebnis dieses Krieges die Vernichtung des Judentums sein wird. Zum ersten mal wird diesmal das echt altjüdischen Gesetz angewendet: 'Aug; um 'Aug;, Zahn um Zahn.' Damorus, pp. 1829 - 30.
24. Bezüglich der Judenfrage ist der Führer entschlossen, reinen Tisch zu machen. Er hat den Juden prophezeit, daß, wenn sie noch einmal Weltkrieg herbeiführen würden, sie dabei ihre Vernichtung erleben würden. Das ist keine Phrase gewesen. Der Weltkrieg is da, die Vernichtung des Judentums muß die notwendige Folge sein.', Elke Fröhlich (ed.), Die Tagebücher von Joseph Goebbels, part 2, Diktate 1941 - 1945, vol. 2, October to December 1941 (munich, 1996), p. 498.
25. 'Mit den Juden - das will ich Ihnen ganz offen sagen - muß so oder so Schluß gemacht werden. Der Führer sprach einmal das Wort aus: wenn es der vereinigten Judenschaft wieder gelingen wird, einen Weltkrieg zu entfessseln, dann werden die Blutopfer nich nur von den Krieg gehetzten Völkern gebracht werden, sondern dann wird der Jude in Europa sein Ende gefunden haben. [...] Aber was soll mit den Juden geschehen? Glauben Sie, man wird sie im Ostland im Siedlungsdörfen unterbringen? Man hat uns in Berlin gesagt: weshalb macht man diese Schreiereien; wir können im Ostland oder in Reichskommisariat auch nichts mit ihnen anfangen, liquidieren sie selber!', Werner Präg and Wolfgang Jacobmeyer, Das Diensttagebuch des deutschen Generalgouverneurs in Polen, 1939 - 1945 (stuttgart, 1975), p. 457.
26. 'Es besteht in diesem Winter die Gefahr, daß die Juden nicht mehr sämtlich ernährt werden können. Es ist ernshaft zu erwägen, ob es nicht die humanste Lösung ist, die Juden, soweit sie nicht arbeitseinsatzfähig sind, durch irgendein schnell wirkendes Mittel zu erledigen. Auf jeden Fall wäre dies angenehmer, als sie verhungern zu lassen.'. A less satisfactory translation using 'device' as 'Mittel' is in Raul Hilberg, Documents of Destruction. Germany and Jewry 1939 - 1945 (London, 1972), pp. 87-88.

United States and China to Cooperate on Clean Energy
President Obama talks with China's President Hu Jintao in Beijing during Obama's first trip to China. Enlarge this image.
President Barack Obama and China's President Hu Jintao announced on November 17 a far-reaching package of measures to strengthen cooperation between the United States and China on clean and renewable energy. The presidents began by establishing a U.S.-China Clean Energy Research Center to facilitate joint research and development of clean energy technologies by scientists from both countries. The center will be supported by $150 million in public and private funds over the next five years, split evenly between the partners. Initial research priorities will be building energy efficiency, clean vehicles, and carbon capture and storage.
Also, building on the first-ever U.S.-China Electric Vehicle Forum in September 2009, the two leaders unveiled a U.S.-China Electric Vehicles Initiative, which will include developing joint standards, building demonstration projects in more than a dozen cities, creating technical roadmaps, and carrying out public education projects. Both nations said they share an interest in accelerating the deployment of electric vehicles in order to reduce oil dependence, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and promote economic growth. The countries will also leverage private sector resources to develop clean energy projects in China through the U.S.-China Energy Cooperation Program (ECP). More than 22 companies are founding members of the program. The ECP will include collaborative projects involving renewable energy, smart grids, clean transportation, green buildings, combined heat and power, energy efficiency, and clean coal.
As part of their joint efforts, the two powers will hold an ongoing series of forums. For example, a new U.S.-China Energy Efficiency Forum will be held annually, rotating between the two countries. This will be part of the new U.S.-China Energy Efficiency Action Plan, launched by President Obama and President Hu Jintao. The action plan commits the two countries to work together and with the private sector to improve the energy efficiency of buildings, industrial facilities, and consumer appliances. Similarly, the new U.S.-China Renewable Energy Partnership will feature an annual rotating forum. Under the partnership, the two countries will develop roadmaps for widespread renewable energy deployment in both countries. In addition, the countries will encourage state-to-state and region-to-region partnerships in order to share experiences and best practices. Also included in this undertaking will be a new Advanced Grid Working Group, which will bring together U.S. and Chinese policymakers, regulators, industry leaders, and civil society to develop strategies for grid modernization in both countries.

At Davos, Mary J. Blige Tops Google's Invite List
When you have roughly $50 billion in cash, you can afford to throw a good party.
And that is how Google, Inc. got singer Mary J. Blige–winner of nine Grammy awards, who has sold more than 50 million albums in her career–to a company-hosted party in the modest function room of the Intercontinental Hotel in Davos, the Swiss village now home to the World Economic Forum.
Ms. Blige's next gig, according to ticketing websites, is likely at the 72,000-capacity Louisiana Superdome.
Tonight, however the stage wasn't much larger than a dining table, as she sang a handful of songs to an audience that numbered in the hundreds.
The invitation described the performance as an "intimate Google nightcap" hosted by Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt and Chief Business Officer Nikesh Arora.
Economist Nouriel Roubini was at the front, capturing the scene on his cell phone; to the right, British entrepreneur Richard Branson. Other VVIPs among the guest list included Bank of America Chief Executive Brian Moynihan, Dell, Inc. Chief Executive Michael Dell and the Crown Prince of Norway, among others.
Outside the room, Google Glass-bespectacled company staff ensured only those on the short list got the red wristband needed to enter.
During the set, Ms Blige paid tribute to Bono, the U2 singer and frequent Davos attendee, and then sang "One," a song she recorded with Bono and U2 in 2005.
Ms. Blige left after performing a handful of songs, though she returned to meet guests later.
Idris Elba, the British actor who played Nelson Mandela in "Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom" then deejayed, dedicating his first song, "Free Nelson Mandela" by The Special AKA, to the recently-deceased South African statesman.
Earlier Thursday, local media reported that Ms. Blige's father, Thomas, was critically injured after being stabbed in the neck in Battle Creek, Michigan.

Threat Metric
The Threat Meter is a malware assessment that SpywareRemove.com's research team is able to give every identifiable malware threat. Our Threat Meter includes several criteria based off of specific malware threats to value their severity, reach and volume. The Threat Meter is able to give you a numerical breakdown of each threat's initial Threat Level, Detection Count, Volume Count, Trend Path and Percentage Impact. The overall ranking of each threat in the Threat Meter is a basic breakdown of how all threats are ranked within our own extensive malware database. The scoring for each specific malware threat can be easily compared to other emerging threats to draw a contrast in its particular severity. The Threat Meter is a useful tool in the endeavor of seeking a solution to remove a threat or pursue additional analytical research for all types of computer users.
The following fields listed on the Threat Meter containing a specific value, are explained in detail below:
Threat Level: The threat level scale goes from 1 to 10 where 10 is the highest level of severity and 1 is the lowest level of severity. Each specific level is relative to the threat's consistent assessed behaviors collected from SpyHunter's risk assessment model.
Detection Count: The collective number of confirmed and suspected cases of a particular malware threat. The detection count is calculated from infected PCs retrieved from diagnostic and scan log reports generated by SpyHunter.
Volume Count: Similar to the detection count, the Volume Count is specifically based on the number of confirmed and suspected threats infecting systems on a daily basis. High volume counts usually represent a popular threat but may or may not have infected a large number of systems. High detection count threats could lay dormant and have a low volume count. Criteria for Volume Count is relative to a daily detection count.
Trend Path: The Trend Path, utilizing an up arrow, down arrow or equal symbol, represents the level of recent movement of a particular threat. Up arrows represent an increase, down arrows represent a decline and the equal symbol represent no change to a threat's recent movement.
% Impact (Last 7 Days): This demonstrates a 7-day period change in the frequency of a malware threat infecting PCs. The percentage impact correlates directly to the current Trend Path to determine a rise or decline in the percentage.

PMS-linux worked great until 2 days ago when I saw my wife's new windows 7 laptop on the list of devices to stream media from on the xbox360, and like a moron I selected the windows 7 machine. after that the xbox360 will only show the windows machine. and the pms-linux server is gone
I have removed the windows machine from the network and it still shows up, I have reset the xbox360 and pms-linux, and still only the windows 7 machine(that is off ) shows up on the xbox360.
I feel like this is an xbox360 issue and not a psm-linux issue but I did not know where else to ask for help.
has any one else had this problem and if so what was the solution

text: Belgium is to witness its biggest corruption trial as the two business champions viz. Jo Lernout and Pol Hauspie will be arraigned for defrauding investors up to $300 million in the country's biggest ever corporate crime trial. Founders of Lernout & Hauspie Speech Products (LHSP), Jo Lernout and Pol Hauspie, the main accuse of defrauding investors in the firm, will be scanned with 19 others for falsifying accounts and stock price manipulation from 1997 to 2000. The company was founded in 1987 and steadily it's worth grew up to $10 billions. Company's growths and their dealings have earned praise from then prime minister, country's crown Prince and even from Microsoft founder Bill Gates. The company did well from its inception, but the suspicion arouses, when its market value ruined to the ground within a six months. The company's shares, was listed with the Nasdaq and Easdaq, security exchange. In 1999, its share was just under $20. However, in the new millennium company's shares rose on the normal pace, but in the month of March Company's shares mounts exceptionally high to $70, and within a six month shares destroyed to below $10. In this mishmash, some 50,000 investors, including public bodies, lost millions of hard-earned dollars, which were calculated between $250 to $300 million. The defendants deny the charges. On highly soared company's shares, company's prosecutor defends that the company inflated its sales figures over the four-year period in which the stock price soared. Its accounts seemed to show that sales to South Korea in particular had rocketed. The trial for the biggest ever Belgium fraud case, in which 21 accused will be questioned is being held in a conference centre in the Flemish city of Ghent as courtroom could not accommodate the infuriated investors. If defendants found guilty, they could face incarceration up to five years. Image: BBC Via: dailytimes

RADIO: NewsRadio 1360 KKTX (Yannis Koutroupis)
The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi men's basketball team will open its 2012-13 season with an exhibition against future conference foe Incarnate Word at the American Bank Center. This marks the third straight season that the Islanders and Cardinals have faced off in a preseason exhibition.
• The Islanders have one of the youngest teams in Division I, with an average age of 20 years, three months and 11 days as of tonight.
• Texas A&M - Corpus Christi has no seniors on its roster, with five juniors, five sophomores and five freshmen.
• Sophomore Johnathan Jordan is the leader of the team after topping the Southland in assists per game as a freshman.
• Sophomore Nate Maxey also returns after posting the fourth-highest block total in school history last year.
• The Islanders do not have a group of five players who will see action this year that have previously played together in a competitive contest.
• Junior college transfers Will Nelson and Joy Williamson are expected to play a major part for the Islanders this season.
• Texas A&M - Corpus Christi is ineligible for the postseason because of poor results in the NCAA's Academic Progress Rate. No Islander who played under Wilson had anything to to with the subpar score.
He's only a sophomore, but Houston native Johnathan Jordan has been thrust into the role of leader on the young Islanders squad. Jordan led the Southland in assists per game in 2011-12 and despite his newbie status, was also among the leaders in minutes per game. With 26 starts, he has nearly as many Division I starts as the rest of his teammates combined (34).
Jordan is also one of the most athletic Islanders, having twice won the slam-dunk contest at Islanders Invasion, thanks much to his 48-inch running vertical leap. His 138 assists last season were a new school record.
Fellow sophomore Nate Maxey also jumps off the page when looking at statistics and measurables. The San Diego native posted the fourth-highest block total in school history in his freshman season, and heading into this season was measured as having a 7-foot-10 wing span.
Maxey, who averaged 3.5 points and 3.0 rebounds a year ago, has added about 15 pounds to his 6-foot-11 frame and has also matured greatly off the court heading into his sophomore season.
With 67.9 of the team's scoring gone from a season ago, a large amount of the scoring pressure will fall on the new Islanders. Chief among those are Will Nelson and Joy Williamson, who are expected to play a major part in the Islanders' offense.
Nelson did not play last season to focus on academics, but was a standout performer at Hutchinson and Baton Rouge Community Colleges the two years prior. Williamson was an all-conference performer at Redlands CC a year ago, averaging 18.7 points and 8.2 rebounds.
The two are joined by six other newcomers – junior college transfer Zane Knowles and freshmen Jelani Currie, Dale Francis, Jerred Kite, Cole Martinez and Brandon Pye.
The Islanders have one of the youngest teams in Division I, with an average age of just over 20 years, 3 months, and are one of just a handful of teams that have no seniors on their roster. In a fact that will make most reading this feel old, only one player – Will Nelson – was born in the 1980s.
Texas A&M - Corpus Christi is also one of just eight teams that has an average of less than one year of experience per player. The Islanders have 14 years of college playing experience among their 15 players, though only eight of those years are at the Division I level. Navy, with its 13 years of experience among 17 players, is the least experienced team in the nation on average, while Rice's eight total years of experience is the lowest overall total.
Overall, the Islanders have played a total of 2,933 minutes at the Division I level, which comes out to an average of just under 196 minutes per player. Taking Johnathan Jordan out of the mix – as he finished in the conference's top 10 in minutes per game – and the remaining 14 players have averaged just 142 minutes – just over 3 1/2 games – in their careers.
Texas A&M - Corpus Christi men's basketball will be ineligible for the postseason in the 2012-13 season, due to low Academic Progress Rate scores that occurred in the 2010-11 school year. Only one current player – Ted Wang – was on the team that season, and he is one of the top students on the Islanders, earning Second Team Southland All-Academic honors last year.
As the youngest member of last year's freshman class, Hameed Ali showed flashes of being a strong player for the Islanders, hitting game winning shots against Utah State and Sam Houston State in addition to having the ball in his hands with the chance at a win against South Alabama.
But Ali, who turned 19 in August, has shown significant growth in his maturity, particularly as a vocal leader for the Islanders. Formerly one of the most shy members of the team, Ali has become a constant voice in practice – whether he is on the court or on the sidelines. The native of Hayward, Calif., averaged 4.3 points per game in his 30 contests a year ago. He made 13 starts and shot 32 percent from the field.
Though the last two years have been slightly less successful at home, the Islanders still enjoy a high level of success when playing at the American Bank Center. Texas A&M - Corpus Christi is 68-32 (.680) in 100 games at the facility since it opened in 2004. With a capacity of approximately 8,100, the Islanders have one of the finest home courts in the Southland Conference.
This is the third consecutive year that the Islanders and Cardinals will face off in an exhibition contest. Last year, UIW came away with a 69-65 win in the first contest with Willis Wilson at the helm of the Islanders. Tha Cardinals will become an even more frequent foe in the near future, though, as they will become members of the Southland Conference beginning next season. UIW, Abilene Christian, Houston Baptist and New Orleans will join the league, giving it 14 members starting next year. UIW and ACU will be going through the reclassification process from Division II to Division I over the next four years.
Entering his second year at the helm of the Islanders men's basketball program, head coach Willis Wilson is entering what he terms the first rebuilding year of Islanders Basketball. With the limited time after his hiring, Wilson and his staff had only seen a couple of the players who they signed a year ago, making last season a transition year. But with the first full class of his tenure, the future looks strong for the Islanders.
Wilson, who spent 16 years at the helm of the Rice program and is the school's all-time winningest coach, enters this season with 225 wins in his career. One of the most respected coaches in the college game, Wilson also spent time at Memphis and Stanford in addition to his time as a player, assistant coach and finally head coach at his alma mater, Rice.

First you have to learn the rules; then you can break them.
It's an adage Ron Hicks knows well. After attending the Columbus College of Art and Design on a scholarship and graduating from the Colorado Institute of Art, he found his own expression - outside of traditional viewpoints.
Not that he believes there's anything wrong with academic training. In fact, he found it essential. But after working on photorealistic painting - trying to represent an apple almost like a photograph - he discovered there's more to artistry than "transferring information."
Now, he interprets information into an expressive idea or statement, which he creates on a canvas.
"I find that the more I'm burdened with the technical aspects of painting, the less I see," Hicks said. "So before I lay my first brushstroke, I have to clear my mind so I can paint from the heart."
Vail International Gallery in Vail is showing up to 20 new paintings by Hicks in the gallery through Jan. 10. A reception is set for this evening from 4 to 6 p.m.
"Every two years we ask Ron to create an important one man show for our gallery and dedicate our entire exhibition space to the paintings he gives us," said Gallery co-owner Marc LeVarn. "Each of these shows produces paintings which I consider among the most significant works our gallery has ever sold."
Painters process
One of the ways Hicks clears his mind is by literally viewing models and landscapes differently - a technique that now comes to him naturally, allowing him feel more than he analyzes.
He has trained himself to focus primarily on shapes and values, rather than color in landscapes and figures he paints. For example, if the ear of a model is bright, he rates it high on a scale of 0-10, and then relates everything else in the composition to that value. Rather than perceiving separate objects in a scene, he views them more as shapes in relation to each other.
As a result, he rarely uses pure color. Instead, he might use a muted palette, including gray, which allows him to capture the atmosphere, mood and layers of emotion of a subject.
"If you consider all of the visual elements - shape, value, color, edges, texture and line - I personally believe shape and value are most important," he said.
Following his heart
Once he develops his visual approach to a painting, he then turns his attention to what he wants to say through the composition. In fact, his inspiration stems from his attitude that he "could paint the same subject matter a hundred times and still come up with something different to say each time." He says he's as satisfied painting a paper towel as he is a couple in a cafe due to his intent to sophisticatedly convey the shape and value of subjects.
His style, which blends representational characteristics with impressionism, incorporates loose brushwork that imbues depth into the painting. Likewise, he allows models to find a "loose," comfortable pose, rather than imposing a stiff, contrived position.
"Models will fall into something that's more natural and more them," he said.
In the end, art to Hicks is all about following his heart.
"The French novelist Andre Gide said: 'Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does, the better,'" Hicks said. "My goal is to share my vision. My hope is that whoever views my work will have their own intimate encounter with it. I consider myself simply the vehicle used to deliver the work to them."

Barry Knapp: Stocks Will Slump, Then Finish 2013 Strong
While Barclays strategist Barry Knapp is optimistic 2013 will turn out fine for stocks, the early part of the year could be particularly problematic.
Earlier Monday Knapp unveiled a 1525 S&P 500 price target for the end of next year, or about a 7% gain from current levels. But getting to that estimate won't be easy, at least at the beginning of the year, as uncertainty surrounding the fiscal cliff will likely prompt stocks to kick off 2013 on a sour note.
"The first significant market move next year could be downward," Knapp says in a note to clients. "Earnings estimates look overly optimistic, share prices have overshot core fundamentals and policy uncertainty is quite elevated relative to market risk measures."
He's convinced, however, that such a downturn would be shallow and short-lived as opposed to the beginning of a sizable move lower.
"Overall, it's tough for us to see a particularly poor end to 2013, but policymaker missteps could lead to a messy first half, particularly if it opened up weakness in Europe and Asian export channels," Knapp says. "Still, we think the probability of the market staying depressed is low and we'd view a market downturn as a buying opportunity, particularly for capital spending-exposed cyclical stocks."
The S&P 500 recently rose 0.1% to 1419.
Knapp is slightly less optimistic than the Street consensus. The 11 Wall Street strategists that have released their 2013 estimates expect the S&P 500, on average, to finish next year at 1530, according to Birinyi Associates.
Citigroup and Bank of America, thus far, are the most optimistic, with 2013 targets of 1615 and 1600, respectively. Both estimates would wipe out the S&P 500′s previous record high of 1565, set in October 2007.
Wells Fargo UBS and Morgan Stanley are currently the most bearish, with targets of 1390, 1425 and 1434, respectively.
Knapp began 2012 with a year-end target of 1330, which is about 6% below current levels. While his estimate fluctuated throughout the year, he lowered his view to 1325, from 1395, the day after the presidential election, when the S&P 500 tumbled below 1400.
At that time, he suggested investors should cut risk ahead of the brewing fiscal battle over large tax increases and spending cuts. The post-election stock swoon continued for more than a week before the market bounced back beginning in mid-November.
Through Friday's close the S&P 500 is up 13% on a year-to-date basis.
Even as Knapp is still concerned about the fiscal cliff, he's optimistic that positive catalysts will overshadow negative concerns and fuel the market higher by the end of 2013.
"In our base case, we assume there will be a decent amount of fiscal drag," Knapp says. "However, we expect this fiscal drag and policy uncertainty to dissipate in the second half of 2013. Earnings growth deceleration, attributable to slowing global growth and the U.S. political environment, should trough before mid-year."

Dye Your Own Semisolids:
Playing with the Louet Hand-Dyed Sock Kit
The perennial popularity of semisolid sock yarns and Jane's Hedgerow sock pattern got me thinking more about semisolid yarns, how high the demand and the supply are right now, and how we mere mortals could make them for ourselves—in colors exactly to our liking.
One of the most popular suppliers of yarn for sock knitters and hand-dyers alike is Louet, and they are the same folks who make this kit. I bought mine a few months ago and decided that this would be the perfect time to finally open it up and test it out.
My mission? First, to find out how the kit really works. And second, to see if I could really make my own semisolid sock yarn.
Because this kit was created for one specific dye method, that's the method we'll be talking about here—but remember that there are many, many other ways to dye yarn.
What's In the Box
I'm a sucker for packaging, so I had no problem with the fact that the box was much larger than its actual contents. This is a solid box that begs to be reused. I see mine quickly being filled with more jars of dye, well-used rubber gloves, various squirt bottles and syringes, and pages and pages of dye-splattered notes.
But right off the shelf, here's what's in the box:
- Three skeins of Louet Gems superwash merino sock yarn (approximately 555 yards total)
- One plastic squeeze bottle
- Three 10g containers of Gaywool dye
- One small sample bottle of SOAK woolwash
- A two-page, black-and-white hand-out with dye instructions and a simple ribbed sock pattern, all written by Trudy Van Stralen
What's Not in the Box
The following list is just as important as what's in the box because you can't dye without these things, and yet you otherwise won't find out what they are until after you've bought your kit.
First and foremost, you need a microwave oven to follow the instructions in this kit. I was rather surprised that the instructions made absolutely no mention of the potential health risks of using a kitchen microwave to dye yarn that has been treated with chemicals.
I did some research on my own and found several references to increased safety with increased enclosure—that is, the more you wrap the yarn and contain the fumes and/or splatters, the less risk you run with using a microwave that you also use for food preparation.
Ultimately, though, you really should use a separate microwave oven for dyeing yarn. I took the risk for this review alone and had so much fun that I do plan on buying a separate inexpensive microwave for future dyeing.
Second, you need a glass measuring cup. Again, there's no mention of safety here, but conventional dyeing wisdom dictates that you use separate containers for dyeing and never use these for cooking or eating.
But even if you went out and bought one glass measuring cup for this kit, I don't think it's enough. The instructions tell you to use only one measuring cup for all three colors, to mix the first dye and apply it, then rinse the jar and repeat with the second and third dyes.
I found this approach far too cumbersome and creatively restrictive, so I picked three canning jars (with ml/oz markings on the outside) and declared them permanent dye jars. I could see and have access to all three dyes at once. For semisolid dyeing, you really need this degree of flexibility.
Third and most essential, you want rubber gloves. You don't need industrial-strength mitts, any standard old-fashioned rubber gloves will do. You just don't want this dye on your skin. It won't sizzle and eat through your flesh, but it will stain, and—again—these are chemicals.
Fourth, remember the paper towels. You want a big roll of paper towels by your side at all times to catch any excess drips and splatters.
Fifth, make sure you have any standard clear plastic wrap handy. You'll use this to tightly wrap the skeins before you cook them.
Sixth, at least two large freezer bags. After you wrap each skein in plastic wrap, you'll put them all into two doubled-up freezer bags. The more layers between the yarn and your microwave, the less chance of anything bad getting into your microwave. The risk is ultimately yours to take, and if you plan on doing lots of this, you may want, like me, to invest in a separate microwave for dyeing.
Ready, Set, Splatter!
Now let's get started. The first thing you're told to do is prepare the yarn by soaking it in hot soapy water (using the SOAK woolwash that comes in the kit). The dyes are still safely in their jars, so I used my favorite mixing bowl and didn't bother with the gloves yet.
This step is crucial to preparing the yarn to receive dye. You're told to let the yarn soak for a minimum of 30 minutes, which was just enough time for me to get my workspace ready.
Van Stralen instructs you to cover your table/counter/surface with plastic wrap, but I found it much easier to simply lay out a large plastic garbage bag and tape down the edges. Do cut the bag open so you can use its entire width—I didn't, and I had to run an extra length of plastic wrap under one side.
The dyes come pre-measured and ready to go. One benefit of Gaywool dye is that it contains everything—the dye, mordant, and dyebath acid are all combined into little crystals that you simply pour into a jar and dilute with boiling water. I found that the boiling water tended to splatter the dye around the jars just a little, so I kept a wet napkin handy to wipe up the spots. (Time to put on those rubber gloves!)
I chose a set of wooden chopsticks to stir the dye. They served three purposes: First, they kept me from mingling my food utensils with my dye utensils. Second, they allowed me to see how the dye would look on something. And third, they were an easy visual reminder of what was in each jar. But this was just the beginning.
Next I took out a piece of paper, dipped each chopstick in dye, and drew one long line with each dye. Then I drew shorter lines of the other colors next to each long line so I could see how the colors interacted with one another. Because dark colors tend to bleed into the lighter colors and overwhelm them, I decided to use the lightest blue (aptly named Blueberry) as the dominant foundation color, and then merely dot the skeins with the grayish Silverbirch and stronger blue Cornflower for accent.
Semisolid dyeing is most effectively done when you have all the colors in front of you and ready to go. The kit's one mere squeeze bottle didn't do the trick, so I used two 10ml plastic syringes for the accent colors. (You can find these online at Amazon.com—this link will take you to the 20ml syringes, which I think would work better. I kept having to stop and refill my syringes.)
I was finally ready to dye. I lifted the skeins from their bowl and squeezed out the excess water, putting them in a colander so that they could continue to drip a little longer. Then I set them out on my table and got started. I first applied the Cornflower in a zigzag formation and rubbed the dye evenly into the skeins. I chose the zigzag direction rather than even and rhythmic stripes so that the color repeats would be more randomly staggered. If I had wanted to create self-patterning yarn, I would have used more precise and rhythmic striped repeats.
Next, I slowly and carefully began dotting the other colors on the skeins, being careful not to create large splotches of one single color and always pausing to rub the dye into the yarn. I turned my skeins and continued, always working to fill the white spots without painting over the spots I'd just painted. Some overlap is inevitable, so don't panic if you do this. The real goal is to create a basic backdrop of one color but repeatedly interrupt it with smaller random spots of the contrasting colors.
When I was finally done, my skeins looked like this. You may find that you run out of the primary color before the others. The kit was created on the assumption you'd be dyeing in equal amounts of each color. Don't fret, just do the best you can.
Finally, after I'd used up all my Cornflower and had filled up all the other white spaces satisfactorily, I wrapped each skein tightly in plastic wrap. Pull a generous length of wrap and lay the skein along it lengthwise. Then fold the wrap over the edge of the skein and start rolling until you've enclosed it all, pushing out any large air pockets as you go. Finally, twist the ends tight to secure.
Then it was time to put those skeins in the plastic freezer bags. I folded them in thirds and they fit perfectly. After filling the first bag, I did not seal it—sealing these bags may cause them to explode, which you do not want. Instead, I tucked the open end underneath and then slid that bag—tucked-end first—into a second freezer bag whose end I also tucked underneath. By staggering the openings, my goal was to trap even more bad stuff before it could get into my microwave.
Then I carried my work into the kitchen, popped it in the microwave, and cooked it on high for four minutes. Once those four minutes are up, you need to very, very, very, very carefully flip the bag over, re-tucking the end underneath, and cooking it again for another four minutes. I say "very" so many times because this bag will be hot. Be careful. When my yarn was done, I removed it from the microwave and set it out on the porch to cool.
Every ounce of you will be dying to rip open the bag and see what your yarn looks like, but resist the temptation. It really does need to cool. I let mine sit outside for about two hours until I could comfortably handle it again.
At that point I filled a sink with warm water (made bubbly with a few more squeezes of the SOAK woolwash), ripped open my plastic-wrapped skeins, and lowered them one by one into the water.
Just two rinses later, the water was clear and my skeins were ready to go back outside.
I draped them on a chair out in the yard and let nature do her thing. At far right you'll see a fourth skein. This was an extra skein of Louet Gems from my stash. It was originally a very pale lilac color, but I mixed up my leftover Silver Birch and Cornflower dyes and dyed it to see what would happen. It came out a lovely deep blueberry color.
As the yarn dried and the colors became more true, I'll confess that I was very pleased with the results. The kit really did enable me to create a semisolid yarn. Not only any semisolid yarn, but a yarn that's perfectly suited for Jane's Hedgerow sock pattern—and I've already cast on a new pair with my yarn. We'll see how it knits up.
In Summary: The Pros
This kit has several things going for it. First, it uses arguably the best materials for basic sock yarn dyeing. Louet Gems Merino is one of the most popular and well-respected sock yarns on the market, and many of the most popular hand-dyers use it as their core material.
And second, everything is right there, premeasured and ready to go. The instructions are extremely easy to follow. As an added bonus, you don't have to try and decide which of the (currently) 61 colors of Gaywool dye to use—something I'd find impossible.
Louet currently has five color options for this kit: Blues (which I used), Reds, Browns, Pinks, and Greens. You can also play around with blending the dyes in your kit to create different colors. I'd be careful, though, because you only have so much dye in your kit. If you use too much in an experimental blend you don't like, you're stuck.
Kit Wrap-Up: The Cons
Are there any drawbacks? Just a few. First, at $49.95, this kit is costly. But buying the individual components would be even more expensive because you can only buy Gaywool dyes in 100g jars (priced at $16). I think the investment is worth it if you're curious about dyeing, curious about dyeing sock yarns in particular, and are looking for a very easy method.
Note: In 2009 I checked in with Louet again and discovered that the kit cost has been lowered to $31.99. Most recently in July 2012, the kit price is $36.
This kit makes the dyeing process extremely easy and fun, and, if you fall in love with this form of dyeing, then you can invest in your own set of Gaywool dyes. (Each 100g jar dyes approximately 800g of fiber, or 18 skeins of Louet Gems yarn.)
The second drawback, safety, is really only an issue if you bought the kit without reading this review. I'm uncomfortable with the notion of people being told it's safe to use cooking utensils to mix their chemical dye, and likewise I'm still nervous about what I may or may not have introduced into my microwave. I wish the instructions had included just a few more safety precautions. If hear any compelling arguments why my concerns are unfounded, I'll let you know.
In the meantime, does anyone have a used microwave I could buy?
Suggested Retail Price: Was $49.95 in August 2007 when this review was first published; as of July 2012, the price is now $36.

Hi all,
Hoping I can get help for this issue.
I am getting an error during playback of video files on the latest version of ps3 media server.
During playback of Video Files converted with latest version of MKV2VOB or just normal Divx/Xvid Files playback will go to a stop and display Network Error 80710723. It may go another frame then stays still with the Pause Sign on the Bottom Left Hand Corner. This mainly occured when I was watching videos on the PS3 while my brother was playing Company Of Heroes on the PC thinking its a processing issue. But when just browsing simple webpages while watching videos it happened again.
After this PS3 Media Server loses connectivity, resetting the PS3 does not help, but resetting the PC does followed by the PS3.
My modem/router is a Billion 7402-GLM with latest firmware on an Ethernet Wired Connection.
PC Specs Core 2 Duo @ 3.2GHZ, 4GB Ram.

One nabbed in construction company thefts
Published: Monday, July 22, 2013 at 7:22 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 22, 2013 at 7:22 p.m.
A 20-year-old Houma man was arrested Monday in connection with a string of burglaries at a local construction company, the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Office said.
Dylan Duplantis, 3603 Fallon Drive, stole scrap material from his former employer, Frisco Construction, three separate times since May, Terrebonne Parish sheriff's Capt. Dawn Foret said.
The most recent burglary allegedly happened over the weekend, and evidence suggested that Duplantis was involved in the crimes, Foret said. Detectives allegedly found him Monday afternoon in a scrap yard trying to sell the stolen items.
When Duplantis was questioned by detectives, he allegedly admitted to taking the goods from the company, and later told police he had burglarized the business two other times since May.
Duplantis is charged with one count of burglary of a business and three counts of felony theft, Foret said. He is being held at the Terrebonne Parish Jail, awaiting a bond hearing.

NC shouldn't deal a blow to transparency
Published: Wednesday, May 22, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 21, 2013 at 6:04 p.m.
North Carolinas public won a victory in the fight to keep government from hiding information on public matters, but as The Associated Press reported Monday, the war isnt over.
Two bills in the N.C. House that would have chipped away at newspaper monopolies over public meeting notices failed to meet a legislative deadline to be considered by 2014. But a Senate version of one of the bills could still move forward.
One of the House bills would have allowed 10 counties, including Henderson and Buncombe, to post public meetings on government websites instead of in newspaper ads. Under the bill, governments would have to mail or email notices to people who ask for them, and could still opt to run newspaper ads. The other House bill would have replaced newspaper notices with electronic notices for certain announcements from the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
Theres no getting around the fact that newspapers have a financial interest in continuing their role as publishers of public meeting notices. That fact does not diminish the argument that government should not be trusted to perform this role on its own. The fact that some legislators want to end or fundamentally alter the public notification process suggests that (a) politicians want to hide certain information in places where the public is unlikely to find it; and (b) newspapers retain a vital watchdog role.
Supporters of the measures argue newspapers are no longer the chief source of information in the digital age. But the vast overload of information online, along with the propensity of government to serve its own interests, argues for the opposite conclusion.
Newspapers remain the publics first line of defense against government overreach when it comes to laws, regulations, taxes and expenditure of taxpayer dollars. How convenient it would be for politicians to avoid messy controversies and the give and take that comes with facing an informed citizenry if they could bury public notices on government websites.
North Carolinians can thank Rep. Marilyn Avila, a Wake County Republican whose amendment spelled an end to two of the House bills. Avila rightly said the bills would have allowed government to shirk its responsibility of transparency to save money. The House voted 68-41 for her measure, which keeps newspapers responsible for printing public notices, but with discounted rates in cases of multiple notices, and free Web publishing.
It is baffling that our own representative, N.C. Rep. Chuck McGrady, R-Henderson, chose to be a lead sponsor of these dubious bills along with his Buncombe County GOP colleagues, Nathan Ramsey and Tim Moffitt. McGrady says he views Avilas amendment as a reflection of pressure from local newspaper editors on lawmakers.
Its about how we best get notice out to the public, and my bill, if somebody wants notice, theyre going to get first-class mail notice, McGrady said, adding: This is about money.
But this is about much more than the money governments would save by ending public notices in newspapers. Its about the publics right to know. And thats a battle newspapers will never give up.

Career Center > Careers in Statistics > Which Industries Employ Statisticians
The U.S. Census Bureau is a pioneer in survey methodology. It is the agency that introduced scientific sampling methods into large federal surveys. It introduced methods to quantify and control measurement errors in surveys and it introduced the use of computers in large-scale data processing.
True to its pioneering history, the bureau continues to develop methodology, making it an exciting place for statisticians to work.
The variety of problem-solving opportunities at the bureau calls for statisticians who can work on many projects simultaneously, who are creative in their approaches to problems, and who are adaptable. Statisticians often carry out theoretical research on such topics as the following:
- Time series
- Estimation
- Frame comparison
- Treatment of nonresponse
- Statistical approaches to maintaining confidentiality of respondent data
Theoretical research may be published in such organs as the Journal of the American Statistical Association, the Journal of Business & Economic Statistics, the Journal of Official Statistics, and Survey Methodology.
The breadth of research opportunities at the U.S. Census Bureau attracts many statisticians from other settings to work under the ASA/NSF/Census Research Program, run by the American Statistical Association and jointly supported by the National Science Foundation.
In addition to the widely known Census of Population, the bureau conducts censuses of the following:
- Housing
- Agriculture
- Manufacturing
- Business
- Transportation
- Governments
There are statistical issues for each of these censuses. Following are some examples:
- Estimating an undercount
- Designing public use files with statistical procedures to prevent the inadvertent disclosure of confidential data
- Designing new ways of displaying data graphically
The U.S. Census Bureau also conducts large-scale surveys that are the basis for important public policy decisions. For example, the monthly employment and unemployment survey is designed and implemented by statisticians at the bureau.
For all the surveys, statisticians do the following:
- Develop sampling frames
- Design the sample
- Develop the most appropriate estimators
- Decide what to do about nonresponse
- Analyze data
- Develop methodology for assessing measurement error
- Assure the quality of the surveys
Moreover, the bureau works closely with international organizations, giving statisticians the opportunity to analyze and compare data from many nations. This work requires comparing the impact of different methodologies used to produce the data to assess the effect on estimated differences.
The bureau sponsors an annual research conference attended by statisticians from around the world. Bureau statisticians have the opportunity to not only present their work, but also to discuss cutting-edge research with other statisticians.
Altogether, the U.S. Census Bureau provides a stimulating environment for statisticians to work on a variety of surveys that affect the lives of all of us.

NEW YORK (October 9, 2012)--Evangelical leaders worried that Mitt Romney's Mormonism could suppress conservative turnout are intensifying appeals for Christians to vote.
About two-dozen prominent evangelical leaders issued a statement last month emphasizing conservative moral values over a candidate's particular religion.
Influential Pentecostal publisher Steve Strang, who is also working to get out the vote, told a group of pastors last week that many churchgoers are having trouble setting aside theological concerns about Mormonism to back the Republican presidential nominee.
Strang fears Christian conservatives will stay home on Election Day.
Romney is the first Mormon presidential nominee from a major party.
Evangelical voters have said repeatedly in polls that they'd back Romney despite concerns about his religion, but Southern Baptist leader Al Mohler says that hypothetical question now faces a real-word test.

PHOENIX -- Warriors center Andrew Bogut will join forward David Lee in missing a second straight game due to injury, as the two big men will sit out Saturday's game at Phoenix, according to coach Mark Jackson.
Jermaine O'Neal and Draymond Green will once start in their place, with O'Neal playing through some discomfort with his surgically repaired wrist after missing practice Friday.
"He's a pro, a tough guy that's willing to play, and I'm sure it'll be fine," Jackson said of O'Neal.
Bogut has been dealing with left shoulder inflammation while Lee has a sprained left shoulder and strained left hip.
