In numbers: UBS's Libor fine from the FSA
The £160m fine meted out by the Financial Services Authority to UBS for Libor and Euribor misconduct dwarfs the penalty handed out for similar wrongdoing to Barclays over the summer.
The regulator has argued that the huge difference is justified because UBS's misconduct was more widespread, known about by more people and exacerbated by control failings.
Financial News has taken a closer look at some of the stats detailed in today's penalty notice:
£160m – size of the FSA fine on UBS for misconduct between 2005 and 2010, more than doubling the total amount of financial penalties handed out by the regulator this year
£151.6m – previous total combined fines levied by the FSA on firms and individuals this year*
£182.5m – combined fines levied by the FSA on all firms and individuals between 2005 and 2010*
0 – UBS had no systems, controls or policies relating to making Libor submissions between 2005 and 2008, or to making Euribor submissions between 2005 and 2010
1,900 – requests made by UBS traders either internally or externally to other banks or brokers, in connection with the Yen Libor rate
1,000 – examples of UBS traders attempting to collude with external brokers in an effort to influence Yen Libor submissions of other banks
800 – examples of UBS traders making internal requests that UBS staff responsible for setting Yen Libor submissions adjust their submissions
80 – examples of a single UBS trader trying to collude with six staff at four other banks making Yen Libor submissions
11 – number of UBS staff deemed to be managers directly involved in the improper requests
7 – other managers and senior managers who were aware staff were manipulating submissions to help their trading positions
9 – so-called wash trades; risk-free trades that cancelled each other out, carried out by one UBS trader to generate £170,000 in fees for a broker in reward for their help in influencing other banks' rate submissions
2 – reviews of UBS's Libor systems and processes conducted by the bank, in 2008 and 2009
5 – audits of the relevant business area carried out by UBS's group internal audit team without detecting what the FSA called "routine and widespread manipulation of submissions"
4 – UBS managers given responsibility for the integrity and monitoring of Libor submissions after the 2008 review – ALL knew about the manipulation
58 – staff participating in a public electronic chat in June 2009 during which one UBS Libor trader-submitter openly solicited colleagues for requests concerning Euribor submissions
*These figures were taken from the FSA's website. All other figures were from today's final notice.

Woman jailed in fraud caseFebruary 12,2014Woman is jailed
on fraud charge
A Rutland woman was jailed on $10,000 bail after denying charges Tuesday she tried to get money from a vulnerable adult.
Stephanie Baker, 27, returned to jail after denying a felony charge in Rutland criminal court that she violated an abuse prevention order when she allegedly contacted a member of her family and asked for money.
In October, Baker pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court to a felony charge of financial exploitation of a vulnerable adult. Court records state Baker used a family members credit card to rack up more than $7,000 in charges without the cardholders knowledge or permission.
Baker was ordered by the court to not contact the family member, but according to court records, Baker called the family member asking for money.
The family member, in turn, called police, records state, and Baker was jailed on $15,000 bail. During the arraignment, Judge Theresa DiMauro lowered bail to $10,000.
Baker is being held in Rutland jail, according to the Department of Corrections.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON Long-term U.S. Full StoryMONTPELIER The Vermont attorney generals office says drug companies have complied with a state...

Many federal offices in Wisconsin closed Tuesday as part of the partial government shutdown affecting the nation. A few examples of programs and services that have been affected:
— The Wisconsin National Guard has furloughed 840 non-essential technicians, but spokesman Maj. Paul Rickert says 210 employees who work in fire and rescue, protective service and key maintenance jobs are exempt from the shutdown. The Guard is keeping military honors personnel on duty to perform services at military funerals this week.
— About 900 civilian employees at Fort McCoy, a sprawling training installation between Sparta and Tomah, have been furloughed. However, spokeswoman Linda Fournier says the fort's annual deer hunt for disabled people will take place this weekend because it is being run by contractors and training for a South Dakota Army National Guard unit that just arrived will go on as scheduled. The fort's campground remains open.
— The Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest and Apostle Islands National Lakeshore in northern Wisconsin have closed, along with all national parks. Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest spokeswoman Megan Healy says firefighters and law enforcement officers will stay on the job, but campgrounds, boat rentals and other facilities are closed.
— U.S. Geological Survey equipment that keeps tabs on water flow and levels in Wisconsin rivers and streams is operating, but other data collection handled by the USGS Water Science Center in Middleton has stopped. This includes samples taken to monitor water quality. The center works with numerous universities and municipalities on water issues.
— The Upper Mississippi River National Wildife and Fish Refuge offices in Winona and La Crosse are closed. All public activities are cancelled, but fish and wildlife managers will continue "limited functions," such as those necessary to respond to emergencies, perform essential functions and to protect human life or personal property.
News 8 reached out to several Wisconsin lawmakers to ask what happened, and how they will move forward.

- Abstract
- It is critical to understand fundamental failure processes in order to design coatings for engineering purposes. The failure of ZrO2-8 wt% Y2O3 plasma-sprayed coatings is examined in the present work. The coatings were incorporated in a tensile-adhesion test arrangement and the acoustic emission (AE) was monitored. The AE generated during failure is related to the cracking process, and these are both related to the fracture morphology. Heat treatment of the coating affected changes in the AE count-rate distribution. This may be interpreted in terms of the morphological features of the coating. The relationship of the bond-strength tests to AE and fracture behavior give insight into the mechanism of adhesion of plasma-sprayed coatings.

Allowed amount
This may also be called an "eligible expense" or "negotiated rate" or "payment allowance." It is the maximum amount on which payment is based for health care services that are covered by your insurance.
Balance billing
When a provider bills you for the difference between the provider's charge and the allowed amount. For example, if the provider's charge is $100 and the allowed amount is $70, the provider may bill you for the remaining $30. A preferred provider may not balance bill you for covered services.
The bill you or your doctor or health care provider submits to your health insurance company.
Your part of the costs of a health service that is covered by insurance. It is calculated as a percentage and you pay it in addition to whatever deductible you may owe. For example if your plan allows $100 for a doctor visit and you've already met your deductible, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $20. The insurance plan picks up the rest of the cost.
A co-payment, or co-pay, is the amount the insured person pays every time he or she receives a health service. For instance, if your co-pay to see a doctor is $25, you pay that amount each time you see him or her. The insurance takes care of the rest.
The amount you owe before your health insurance benefits kick in. For example, if your deductible is $500, your insurance won't pay for anything until your costs are more than $500.
Donut Hole, Medicare prescription drug
Most plans with Medicare prescription drug coverage (Part D) have a coverage gap (called a "donut hole"). This means that after you and your drug plan have spent a certain amount of money for covered drugs, you have to pay all costs out-of-pocket for your prescriptions up to a yearly limit. Once you have spent up to the yearly limit, your coverage gap ends and your drug plan helps pay for covered drugs again.
Essential health benefits
This is the set of health care services that must be covered by certain plans starting in 2014. There are 10 categories in which insurance plans must provide services and items: Maternity and newborn care, prescription drugs, rehabilitative services and devices, lab services, ambulatory patient services, emergency services, hospitalization, wellness and preventive services, chronic disease management, and pediatric services that include vision and oral care.
Excluded services
Health care services that your health insurance or plan doesn't pay for or cover.
Health Insurance Marketplace
A resource where individuals, families, and small businesses can learn about their health coverage options; compare health insurance plans based on costs, benefits, and other important features; choose a plan; and enroll in coverage. The Marketplace also provides information on programs that help people with low to moderate income and resources pay for coverage. This includes ways to save on the monthly premiums and out-of-pocket costs of coverage available through the Marketplace, and information about other programs, including Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program. The Marketplace encourages competition among private health plans, and is accessible through websites, call centers, and in-person assistance. In some states, the Marketplace is run by the state. In others it is run by the federal government.
Health Savings Account (HSA)
A medical savings account available to taxpayers who are enrolled in a high deductible health plan. The funds contributed to the account aren't subject to federal income tax at the time of deposit. Funds must be used to pay for qualified medical expenses. Unlike a Flexible Spending Account (FSA), funds roll over year to year if you don't spend them.
High deductible health plan
A plan that features higher deductibles than traditional insurance plans. High deductible health plans (HDHPs) can be combined with a health savings account or a health reimbursement arrangement to allow you to pay for qualified out-of-pocket medical expenses on a pre-tax basis.
In- and out-of-network
An in-network provider is a health care office that has contracted with the health insurance company to provide services for people on that insurance plan. An out-of-network provider is someone who does not have such a relationship with the insurance company. Typically, insurance will only cover the cost of services from health care providers who are "in-network."
Lifetime limit
A cap on the total lifetime benefits you may get from your insurance company. An insurance company may impose a total lifetime dollar limit on benefits (like a $1 million lifetime cap) or limits on specific benefits (like a $200,000 lifetime cap on organ transplants or one gastric bypass per lifetime) or a combination of the two. After a lifetime limit is reached, the insurance plan will no longer pay for covered services.
Out-of-pocket maximum
The most you pay during the period of your policy (most policies go for a year) before your insurance plan begins to pay 100% of the allowed amount. This total does not include your balance-billed charges, your premium, or the health care services your plan doesn't cover. Some plans don't count the out-of-network payments, co-insurance payments, co-payments, other expenses or deductibles toward this amount, so read the plan instructions carefully.
Pre-existing condition
A health problem you had before the date that new health coverage starts.
Preferred provider
A provider who has a contract with your health insurer or plan to provide services to you at a discount. Check your policy to see if you can see all preferred providers or if your health insurance or plan has a "tiered" network and you must pay extra to see some providers. Your health insurance or plan may have preferred providers who are also "participating" providers. Participating providers also contract with your health insurer or plan, but the discount may not be as great, and you may have to pay more.
The amount you must pay for your insurance plan.
Preventive care
Routine health care that includes regular checkups, patient counseling and screenings to prevent disease, illness and other health complications.
UCR (Usual, Customary and Reasonable)
The amount paid for a medical service in a geographic area based on what providers in the area usually charge for the same or similar medical service. The UCR amount sometimes is used to determine the allowed amount.

Engineer washes away Berlin water concerns
BERLIN The soft-sell of a new municipal water system is officially under way as nearly two dozen potential customers thirsty for information about the $5.5 million project turned out to hear what the engineer who has been working on it for the past six years had to say.
No commitments were made and none were solicited during a session that was pitched as a primer on a water project that has been talked about for more than two decades and seriously pursued since 2007.
On a night when one woman said she would like a free sample before making up her mind and others posed questions about costs and construction schedules, Mark Youngstrom of Otter Creek Engineering said it is possible that water from three capped town-owned wells could be flowing through distribution lines and spurting out facets by this time next year.
The plan is to be under construction first thing in the spring, Youngstrom said, suggesting the largest remaining hurdle involves rounding up enough committed customers to make the system proposed for the area around Berlin Four Corners financially viable.
According to Youngstrom, that means entering into formal agreements with property owners who would collectively use roughly 96,500 gallons of water a day, or 386 equivalent residential units (ERUs).
That, Youngstrom said, is a fancy name for home and an acknowledgement that many of the potential customers in the proposed service area would use far more water than the average residence.
When we get to the magic number (386 ERUs) construction starts, he said, ticking off the benefits a system that would provide a reliable source of potable water, and full fire protection including strategically placed fire hydrants and the ability to accommodate commercial sprinkler systems.
Youngstrom told those attending the first in a series of informational meetings about the water project Wednesday night that the town wasnt asking them to commit to anything yet, but they should start thinking about whether they want to hook on to the system and be ready to make a decision in the not-too-distant future. He said the time is fast-approaching when those who own homes, commercial property, and even undeveloped land will be asked whether they want to reserve what isnt an unlimited capacity of water.
If I could look five years down the road youre going to reach the capacity of your three wells, he predicted. You could sell out the (water) system in a short period of time.
Though it will take at least 386 ERUs to begin construction, Youngstrom said 500 ERUs is probably the maximum capacity of the current wells.
Tapping out a system that hasnt yet been built and searching for a supplemental source of water would be a welcome problem, according to Youngstrom, who encouraged those in attendance to seriously consider becoming a customer.
When somebody finally comes to you and ask you to sign on the dotted line, please sign, he said.
Asked about price, Youngstrom said rates hadnt yet been set, but the goal has been and remains to supply water at an annual cost of between $550 and $600 per ERU a figure he said is around the state average for a well-run municipally owned water system.
Youngstrom did say he would not recommend a price break to persuade high-volume users to hook on to the system.
Everybody understands fairness, and fairness is everybody pays the same, he said.
According to Youngstrom, a typical water bill would likely be broken down into three components flat fee to pay off the bond that will finance construction of the system, a base rate for the ability to use the water, and a per-gallon consumption fee.
Though the drop-dead date hasnt yet been established, Youngstrom said, those who commit to capacity in advance can avoid the expense of a yet-to-be-established connection fee that will be charged those who choose want to hook on at a later date. However, even those who take advantage of that incentive will be required to cover the cost of tapping into the water line that will stop at their property lines, he said.
With a voter-approved bond issue in-hand, and federal financing for the project locked up, Youngstrom said he is finishing up the final design and working on bid documents in anticipation that recruiting customers wont be a problem.
According to Youngstrom, the design-work is 60 percent complete, surveys are done, and soil borings have revealed no insurmountable subsurface problems with ledge along the five-mile route of the proposed distribution system.
Youngstrom said that route may yet change based on interest from potential users along Paine Turnpike North, which runs from the Route 62 intersection near the local fire station to the Fisher Road intersection where a new state hospital is now under construction. Adding that area into the project scope would likely require dropping a segment of Comstock Road between Granger Road and Paine Turnpike, he said.
Berlin resident Charlotte Brewer, who hasnt had water in her house that didnt come from the well in her yard, said she would be interested in a taste test.
Im dying to try it, she said of the water produced by the town-owned wells.
According to Brewer, her own well has good water pressure, but she isnt wild about the taste that her husband, Lee, attributes to an elevated salt content that has rendered several wells in the proposed service area undrinkable.
Ours isnt bad, but it (the water) does leave rust spots on our stainless steel knives, he said.

Going for the Split :)
We lost 6-2 yesterday. So much for a series win.
Chad Gaudin was terrible from the very beginning of the game. He didn't have his stuff at all, and it was not a good sign. Chad's struggled a lot this year. If he's not on at the beginning of the game, he's not going to have anything for the rest of it. He got his 10th loss of the season yesterday. Yikes.
He only went 3.1 innings, giving up six runs on nine hits with two walks and three strikeouts. He was terrible!!
The bullpen did very well, thankfully. Luis Perdomo went 2.2 innings, Greg Burke went two, and Joe Thatcher went one. Bullpen's been good. Starting pitching, bad.
We didn't get any runs until the bottom of the sixth. Will Venable hit a two-run homer, his fifth home run in the last seven games. We had seven hits, and that was it.
This is a forgettable game. I had hoped for a series win, but the Braves jumped all over Chad Gaudin and we couldn't get back.
Ah well. Negatives? Kouz grounded into three double plays. That is not the way to get things done around here, my boy…
Now the Mets are in town for four games. You'd better get at least a series split, boys!!
Oh man, that looks sooooo good!!
Clayton Richard is pitching tonight against Livan Hernandez.

The great thing about fans of losing teams is that some of them never quit. You are on of them Kaybee. Keep up the perseverance.
A split is better than nothing. Ok…that ice cream looks good.🙂
Good Luck against the Mets!
i for one cant stand banannas. man, the smell just overwhelmes me. it almost feels like im choking. i always want to puke when biting into one
DILLON, thanks so much. We'll get through this…eventually…
GINNY, thanks. I really hope we have a great series!!
MATT, tell me how you really feel. hahaha! I suggest that you stay away from bananas🙂
Kaybee: I'm sure the Padres can beat the Mets. The Mets players are all dropping dead like flies. They have so many injuries! I'm sure Kouz will have a bounce back game. In last nights game, my man Melky Cabrera (since Cervelli got sent down, he is my fav again) went hitless, but he did make a nice play in the outfield. The Yanks have a HUGELY anticipated series vs the Red Sox starting today, and I am pumped up! -Virginia
Your Padres are WINNING games!!! Yaaaaay. The Dodgers have been losing a lot lately too. Time for a win.
And you guys kicked Met behind last night! Way to go!
Well, Chad Gaudin isn't a Padre anymore, so I guess you don't have to worry!

The first significant snowfall of the season is putting La Crosse's alternate side parking rules to the test.
City of La Crosse Public Works Director Dale Hexom says for the most part, drivers are following the ordinance. It allows plow drivers to clear the streets after a snowfall.
This year, city officials are watching closely an alternate side parking relief area near the UW-La Crosse campus. The rules only go into effect in that area when city officials send out an alert. They're looking for more compliance this year.
"People haven't really signed up to be notified and we'd certainly encourage people to do that so they can be notified by e-mail, twitter or text when we put out the alert," Hexom said.
People who park in the alternate side relief area near campus can sign up to recieve the alerts by going to the city of la crosse website at city of la crosse dot org.

Small fire at St. Johnsbury Athenaeum called arsonOctober 07,2013
ST. JOHNSBURY A local youth who is accused of starting a small fire in an elevator at the St. Johnsbury Athenaeum over the weekend is to be charged with fourth-degree arson today at Caledonia County criminal court in St. Johnsbury.
According to police, 17-year-old Robert Rohaley was arrested in connection with the fire on Railroad Street shortly before 3 p.m. Saturday.
Rohaleys arrest occurred roughly 15 minutes after police spoke with a patron who found printed posters on fire in the Athenaeums elevator and extinguished the small blaze with his foot. The patron told police he saw two young men exit the elevator and that when he entered it he found the burning items.
On the strength of physical descriptions provided by the patron and surveillance video, police said they were quickly able to locate both youths and arrested Rohaley.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON The House on Thursday cleared bills to keep the government running through April and...

Calvello Stars Again at 'X' in UMass Win over Harvard
from press release
AMHERST, Mass. -- Spurred on by second-half offense and a stifling defensive performance, No. 16 Massachusetts men's lacrosse defeated Harvard in the home-opener for the Minutemen, 8-4 at Garber Field on Saturday afternoon. Attackman Nick Mariano earned his second consecutive hat trick as the freshman led both sides with three goals against the Crimson.
Grant Whiteway also earned three points alongside Mariano as the Billerica, Mass., native tallied two assists and one goal. Grant Consoletti, James Fahey, Connor Mooney and Andrew Sokol also earned one goal apiece.
Joe Calvello won 11 of his 16 faceoffs and scooped up 10 groundballs while dishing out his first assist of the year.Vincent Travaglini rounded out the UMass scorers with a helper, his first collegiate point.
Peter Schwartz led Harvard with three points on a pair of goals and one assist. Ian Ardrey and Brendan Newman accounted for the other two Crimson marks on the game.
Zach Oliveri backstopped the UMass defense, which caused 12 turnovers, with 14 saves, including eight during the pivotal second half.
The Minutemen tallied first only 88 seconds into the contest as Mooney notched a rebound goal at the crease afterMatt Whippen's initial attempt was blocked by Harvard goalie Jake Gambitsky.
After 10 minutes, 30 seconds of even competition, Harvard answered with a strike from Schwartz; however, the Minutemen rallied in the closing seconds of the frame behind James Fahey's long-pole goal.
The Boxford, Mass., native gained possession near the midline following an Oliveri save, dished to Whiteway five yards from the left post before Whiteway sent the play back to Fahey near the goalmouth. Fahey caught the ball in front and, in one motion, placed it into the back of the net before Gambitsky could react.
Mariano extended the Minuteman lead to 3-1 with 13:45 left in the second with his seventh goal of the season and first of the contest. However, Newman and Ardrey responded during the final five minutes of the half to knot the score at three entering the break.
The defense limited Harvard to just one more goal over the final 30 minutes while the attack provided four straight tallies that turned the tie game into a 7-3 UMass advantage.
Starting close defensemen Bob Fahey, James Fahey and Kyle Karaska accounted for five groundball and four caused turnovers while short-stick defensive midfielders Dylan Gruder, Ryan Izzo, Brendan Schroeder and Travaglini scooped up two more loose balls and forced a trio of turnovers during the game as the Crimson offense was unable to replicate success against the UMass backline consistently. On the strength of its defense, the Minutemen finished with a sizeable lead in groundballs, 27-13 while the Crimson only tallied four caused turnovers to the dozen earned by UMass.
Mariano tallied for the second time on the day to open scoring in the third quarter at the 2:09 mark. After a Whippen shot was blocked in front, Mariano raced to the bouncing ball 10 yards from the cage, scooped it up while running on-goal and deposited an off-balance attempt into the back of the net.
Consoletti stretched the lead back to a pair, 5-3 with only four seconds remaining in the third quarter. Whiteway tracked down an errant Harvard pass near the midline and fed the ball to Travaglini as he rushed up field. Travaglini found Consoletti at the left post in transition and Consoletti converted over the left shoulder of Gambitsky for his second goal of the season.
Back-to-back goals from Sokol and Whiteway in the span of six seconds pushed the home advantage to 7-3 with 13:49 to play. Sokol earned his tally with a leaping try from 15 yards away following a pass from Whiteway with 13:54 remaining in the game. After Calvello won the ensuing faceoff he dished it to Whiteway, who used a sidearm shot from distance to beat Gambitsky and make it 7-3 Minutemen.
Schwartz got his second goal of the day with 11:29 to play but Mariano responded to complete the hat trick less than two minutes later.
The game marked Calvello's second consecutive with double-digit groundballs following his program record-tying 13 scooped up against No. 14/9 Ohio State during UMass' 12-11 overtime victory on Feb. 16. Mooney and Austin Spencer each caused a pair of turnovers while combining for six groundballs.
The teams tied in shots attempts, 32-32 while UMass finished 14-for-15 on clears and Harvard went 19-of-21 in the category. Neither side recorded a man-up goal as the Crimson finished 0-for-3 on EMO chances while the Minutemen went 0-for-1.
The Minutemen face their second consecutive Ivy League foe next as UMass heads to Providence, R.I., to challenge Brown at 1 p.m. on March 1.

"Del" was always a sensitive kid. He grew up in a family where sensitivity was handled with insensitivity. His brothers never let up on the sarcasm, and his mom and dad were mostly too busy to be concerned with emotional matters and took the "rub some dirt on it" approach to hurt feelings.
Most people who knew "Del" thought he was a good kid, but said he "thought too much."
As he matured "Del" felt uncomfortable in his own skin. His feelings alternated between insecurity, hurt and resentment toward those who had hurt him.
Then he found alcohol.
When "Del" drank, he felt more comfortable. Much later, he would tell you he felt what he thought others might describe as normal.
At the time, though, he didn't know he was sensitive because it was the only state he had experienced except for drunk, numb and relieved. He couldn't tell his perceptions subtly had begun to shift so he was always hurt and, in his perception, always the victim of other's slights.
Sometimes he would be angry because someone didn't talk to him enough. Sometimes he read into their words, and sometimes he was offended by too many words in his direction. Sometimes he thought people were talking about him, and sometimes he was hurt because they weren't.
In other words, "Del" had reached a point where he was always hurt and convinced he was justified in his position.
The more he drank for relief, the more his drinking affected his thinking, until even the booze wouldn't drown out the overwhelming self-consciousness and fear.
Sure he was losing his mind and with nowhere to turn, he made an appointment with a psychiatrist. "Del" was looking for a quick and easy solution to his discomfort – maybe a pill. No stranger to addictive problems, the psychiatrist knew what he was dealing with and suggested "Del" try a treatment center first and foremost. "Del" did so and after completing an inpatient stay – he called it "drunk camp" – he followed directions to attend Alcoholics Anonymous and find an aftercare counselor.
Over time, "Del" discovered he suffered from a disease of perception and probably had suffered from the precursors of it long before he ever took a drink.

Coco Fusco in Radical Presence: Black Performance in Contemporary Art at Grey Art Gallery (September 10 through December 7) and Studio Museum in Harlem (Dec. 13)
Just in time for Performa 13, New York's November-long arts biennial featuring all things performative, NYU's Grey Art Gallery and the Studio Museum in Harlem co-present Radical Presence: Black Performance in Contemporary Art. At the top of the list of participating artists is Coco Fusco, winner of the Absolut Art Award 2013.
On view at Grey Art Gallery through December 7th – part one of the Radical Presence exhibition – is Fusco's Sightings, a 2004 photography series that addresses the still-current topics of racial profiling, police tactics and vigilantism: inspired by the story of Angela Davis, a 70s political activist who spent months as a fugitive, resulting in "frenzied mis-identifications" made by the public, the police and the government. The exhibit also features Fusco's video work a/k/a Mrs. George Gilbert, a video work incorporating the same anecdote and exploring the "radicalized fantasies" about Davis and other black radicals in the 60s and 70s.
For part II of the Radical Presence exhibition, housed at the Studio Museum in Harlem, Fusco will perform Observations of Predation in Humans: A Lecture by Dr. Zira, Animal Psychologist – the premise of which sees the female chimpanzee from the Planet of the Apes films "resume her life as a public intellectual," presenting years of research on human aggression in the 21st century.

Wangechi Mutu: A Fantastic Journey
at the Brooklyn Museum (October 11, 2013 through March 9, 2014)
Brooklyn-based Kenyan artist Wangechi Mutu has had a busy few years, exhibiting at museums and institutions the world over, from the Musee d'Art Contemporain de Montreal to the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney to the Deutsche Guggenheim in Berlin. Since October, the Brooklyn Museum has housed the first survey in the United States of Mutu's work, exhibiting more than fifty of Mutu's large-scale collages for a comprehensive look at the career of the skyrocketing artist.
Mutu's work addresses a wide range of subject matter - from gender and race to war and colonialism, and perhaps most notedly, the black female body and its perception in society. Composed of traditional collage material – magazine cutouts, found material and paint – Mutu's most recognizable works are provocative and awe-inspiring, most often depicting female figures that can only be described as blends of human, animal and machine. Staged in landscapes of pure (and sometimes dark) fantasy, Mutu's works are both mesmerizing and unsettling.
Wangechi Mutu: A Fantastic Journey also includes sketchbook drawings that have never been publicly exhibited, giving insight into Mutu's process and exposing the private processing of ideas manifested in her mammoth works. In addition, a selection of Mutu's video work, as well as site-specific drawings and sculptural installations provide a further look into Mutu's world.

Mike Kelley at MoMA PS1
(October 13, 2013 through February 2, 2014)
This October, MoMA PS1 in Queens, New York, has dedicated its entire facility to the largest exhibition of Mike Kelley's work to date – three stories of every kind of the work that the prolific, and recently deceased, artist ever made. Unquestionably one of the most influential artists of our time, Mike Kelley's work is both modernist and alternative, examining society and popular culture in an obsessive, yet poignant, manner.
At times whimsical, at times dark, at times academic, the exhibition includes over 200 works made over more than thirty years. With his paintings and works on paper representing the more somber and inquisitive parts of his body of work, Kelley's perhaps most popular works are sculptural – made of stuffed animals (often sewn together), knitted blankets, and quilted fabrics.
The exhibition's most striking characteristic is the unexpected variation between rooms – a shadowy beehive of rooms that explores the neon-lit heimat of Superman gives way to a brightly-lit convergence of suspended pastel-colored orbs of stuffed animals; an architectural installation of floor plans and statistics neighbors a room with a large carpet, mysterious shapes of objects under the carpet resulting in hills and valleys, and a visceral sense of unease. A large gallery with extensive video and projected works, arranged in an overwhelming flurry, traces his time-oriented creations, and a larger-than-life man made of glass-bottle shards towers above a color-coded landfill of refuse.
Kelley's variation in medium, tone and subject matter speaks to his importance as a cultural commentator – and the exhibition at PS1 provides an all-encompassing entry into our world – through his eyes.

Christopher Wool at the Guggenheim
(October 25, 2013 through January 22, 2014)
Christopher Wool is a painter who began working when painting wasn't cool. In the 80s, in New York, the popular art scene held painting as stuffy and old-fashioned, uninteresting to the avant-garde. Whether it's in reaction to this, or in keeping with it, Wool starting painting about painting – trading paintbrush for paint-roller, he set out to examine what painting is, or perhaps, what it could be.
Installation view: Christopher Wool, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, October 25, 2013–January 22, 2014. Photo: Kristopher McKay © Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York
With a visual aesthetic that was born of the punk and No Wave culture of New York in the 70s, Wool was producing his breakthrough body of work by the late 80s - using rollers stamped with floral designs, or sometimes geometric patterns, he produced paintings in an innovative and startling manner. Removing gesture and "the artist's hand" from painting, Wool's work was revolutionary. When he began using letters – breaking down words, omitting letters and paint-rolling them in grids – Wool juxtaposed language and formalism, exposing the visual impact that structure and broken-patterns could have.
The retrospective features more than 90 paintings and works on paper, as well as photographic works, whirling up and up around the Guggenheim's rotunda. Tracing Wool's earlier paint-roller days, through his more recent explorations in alternative collage, erasing-and-redrawing, and most recent digital work, the exhibition proves to be comprehensive – an exciting collection for fans of Wool's, and an in-depth introduction for those less acquainted with his work.

Isa Genzken: Retrospective
November 23, 2013–March 10, 2014. The Joan and Preston Robert Tisch Exhibition Gallery, sixth floor. The Agnes Gund Garden Lobby, first floor.MoMA, New York
This first major U.S. survey of German artist Isa Genzken spans some four decades of art-making that ranges from uncompromising to audacious. Genzken's prominent 2007 Venice Biennale installation "Oil XI" fills the Museum's ground-floor lobby with discarded luggage overseen by three ghostly NASA flight suits hanging overhead. On the sixth floor, the retrospective unfolds chronologically, starting with Genzken's inventive explorations as a student of Gerhard Richter in late 1970s Dusseldorf, of precision in man-made engineering and natural forms. Here, a group of monumental floor-pieces, "Hyperbolos" and "Ellipsoids", produced between 1976 and 1981, reflect her fascination with meticulous production and forms in space as these elongated, sleek, minimalist sculptures lightly touch the ground either solely at their center or their very tips.
Genzken's sharp observations on the individual's relation to urban environ- ments, and on architecture as sculptural surrounding, are further themes which thread throughout the exhibition. It's bitingly explored in works like "Fuck the Bauhuas" (2000) and "New Buildings for Berlin" (2004), and can also be retraced to her early concrete sculptures, which evoke the ruins and drab landscapes that characterized post-war Germany. Genzken often criticized what she deemed a "missed opportunity" in the urban renewal of Berlin; her dangerous love affair with the city of New York produced a plethora of works both romanticizing and com- menting on the city's unique mix of chaos and regulation.
The final space houses the chillingly moving series "Ground Zero" (2008). Here, Genzken suggests models for the reconstruction at Ground Zero, including a "Memorial Tower", an "Osama Fashion Store", and a nightclub named "Disco Soon". Working across a variety of techniques including sculpture, painting, photogra- phy, collage, drawings, film, installations and assemblages, Genzken's rare and radical artistic freedom lies at the core of her rich and influential practice, now duly introduced to a wider American audience.

Serena Frome, the beautiful daughter of an Anglican bishop, has a brief affair with an older man during her final year at Cambridge, and finds herself being groomed for the intelligence services. The year is 1972. Britain, confronting economic disaster, is being torn apart by industrial unrest and terrorism and faces its fifth state of emergency. The Cold War has entered a moribund phase, but the fight goes on, especially in the cultural sphere. Serena, a compulsive reader of novels, is sent on a 'secret mission' which brings her into the literary world of Tom Haley, a promising young writer. First she loves his stories, then she begins to love the man. Can she maintain the fiction of her undercover life? And who is inventing whom? To answer these questions, Serena must abandon the first rule of espionage - trust no one. McEwan's mastery dazzles us in this superbly deft and witty story of betrayal and intrigue, love, and the invented self.

Amazon Best Books of the Month, November 2012: One of McEwan's finest female characters, Serena Frome--"rhymes with plume," the author tells us in the opening line--is both clever and beautiful, a speed-reading lit geek and a math whiz, a 1970s version of the Harvard MBA types who launch life-changing Internet startups. But in the dark and troubled Cold War days in London, there were few options for bright young women. So when a mysterious lover recruits her for the British intelligence service, MI5, Serena throws herself body and soul into an undercover operation code-named Sweet Tooth. What unfolds is a mystery, a romance, and a dazzling display of literary workmanship. Though the action slows to a crawl at times, McEwan is a brilliant and entertaining storyteller whose lines--sometimes laugh-out-loud funny, sometimes wickedly wise--had me reaching for my highlighter. -- Neal ThompsonAbout the Author:
Ian McEwan is the author of two collections of stories and twelve previous novels, including Enduring Love, Amsterdam, for which he won the Booker Prize in 1998, Atonement and, most recently, Solar.

Arrests netted following city Christmas parade
Smith says goodbye to D&E grads
Retiring Davis & Elkins College President G.T. "Buck" Smith got up close and personal with the 2013 graduates at the school's 104th annual commencement ceremonies Saturday.
Serving as the commencement speaker, Smith left the stage to walk down on the seating floor with the graduates, delivering his comments to them face to face.
"I have a written speech up there," he said, gesturing to the stage as the students laughed. "I'll mail it to you."
Instead, Smith quoted to them the last line of "El Dorado," an essay by Robert Louis Stevenson: "For to travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive, and the true success is to labor."
Smith said the quotation was not only a sentiment to live by, but also a favorite maxim of Ward M. Canaday, a manufacturing leader whose company originally developed the Jeep automobile.
Smith said as a young man he'd met Canaday in the 1960s, when the manufacturer quoted the line to him. Canaday told Smith he'd read the essay when he was a student at Harvard decades ago, but had never been able to find a book containing the passage since then.
Smith made it his mission, as he traveled across the country in the following months for his job, to find the essay, searching libraries and book stores along the way. He finally discovered the essay in a library, copied it longhand, typed it up and sent it to Canaday, who was so moved that he and Smith became lifelong friends.
Smith offered other advice to the graduates as well.
"Don't talk all the time," he said. "Ask questions. Your education isn't over.
"Don't worry so much about the world you're going out into," Smith said. "Look inside. Be sure of what you're taking out into the world. Know that person ever so well."
D&E officials honored Smith during the ceremony. thanking him for his many accomplishments over the past five years. Smith was presented with a portrait of himself and his wife, Joni, by Dr. Joseph M. Roidt, vice president for academic affairs.
An honorary doctor of letters degree was conferred to John C. Allen, Jr., the author of the award-winning "Uncommon Vernacular: The Early Houses of Jefferson County, West Virginia, 1735-1835," during Saturday's ceremonies at Harper-McNeeley Auditorium.
Valedictorian Shannon Nicole Neuenschwander of Dalton, Ohio and Salutatorian Ellis C. Wyatt of Harman also spoke during the ceremonies.
