text: Ohio River anglers subject of creel survey By John McCoy March 24, 2012 Story Share If you've hear the question once, you've heard it a million times:"Ya catchin' any?"Whether you're knee deep in a trout stream, sitting in a lawn chair at a pay pond or pulling up to the dock in your bass boat, someone always seems to want to know.Ohio River anglers will get that experience a lot this year. From now through Oct. 20, they'll be answering that question and a few more. Fish and wildlife agencies in West Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky have launched a three-state effort to find out what anglers fish for, how many they catch, where they live, how much they fish and how much they enjoy the experience.The agencies have hired "creel clerks" to hang around popular fishing spots and ask anglers to answer about a dozen questions.Chris O'Bara, the Division of Natural Resources research biologist who heads up West Virginia's segment of the survey effort, said the survey should only take a couple of minutes to complete."It will be single-answer questions," he explained. "For example, 'How many fish did you catch today?' 'How long were you fishing?' 'What were you fishing for?' and 'Where do you live?' We realize that when people come off the river, they want to go home - so we're keeping the survey short and sweet."The survey will be nothing new. Fish and game agencies along the Ohio conduct similar surveys every 10 years or so. The last time it was done, West Virginia hired the clerks. Ohio will do the honors this time. The clerks will wear uniforms, but not West Virginia or Ohio DNR uniforms. "The uniforms will be pretty low-key, and they'll identify the clerks as part of the Ohio River angler survey," O'Bara said.Most of the surveys will take place at places where anglers on the Ohio tend to congregate - at fishing piers just downstream from navigation dams, and at boat ramps."We want to concentrate the effort where the heaviest fishing pressure is, and that's at the tailwater fisheries below the locks," O'Bara said. "The clerks probably will be there more than they are at the boat ramps. We definitely plan to hit all the boat ramps at least once, but we'll be hitting the tailwater fisheries several times apiece."After anglers answer the field survey, they will be put on a list and will be mailed a more detailed two-page survey. O'Bara said participation in either portion of the survey is voluntary.DNR officials plan to incorporate the information into future Ohio River fish-management plans."For example, if anglers tell us they have a lot of interest in fishing for a species we haven't intensively managed in the past, we might want to start managing that species a little more," O'Bara said."Or, if we find that harvest rates on a certain species are too high for the resource to bear, we might want to change the creel limits a little." Agency planners will keep in mind, however, that the survey is - as O'Bara puts it - "a one-time picture.""We have to take into account all kinds of things, such as weather patterns and river conditions," he explained. "If it rains for three straight months and nobody's out fishing, that's going to affect the survey. We'll need to take those things into account when we're deciding what to do with the survey data."

I can't keep her hove-to much longer, for this simple reason as she'll bury herself and us.
Old English byrgan "to raise a mound, hide, bury, inter," akin to beorgan "to shelter," from Proto-Germanic *burzjan- "protection, shelter" (cf. Old Saxon bergan, Dutch bergen, Old Norse bjarga, Swedish berga, Old High German bergan "protect, shelter, conceal," German bergen, Gothic bairgan "to save, preserve"), from PIE root *bhergh- "protect, preserve" (cf. Old Church Slavonic brego "I preserve, guard"). Related: Buried; burying. Burying-ground "cemetery" attested from 1711.
The Old English -y- was a short "oo" sound, like modern French -u-. Under normal circumstances it transformed into Modern English -i- (e.g. bridge, kiss, listen, sister), but in bury and a few other words (e.g. merry, knell) it retained a Kentish change to "e" that took place in the late Old English period. In the West Midlands, meanwhile, the Old English -y- sound persisted, slightly modified over time, giving the standard modern pronunciation of blush, much, church.

This Week's Reading
What We're Loving: Saintly Comics, High ReliefBy Sadie Stein
In 1974, David Esterly was pursuing a career as an academic when he encountered a limewood carving by the seventeenth-century master Grinling Gibbons. He gave up English literature, devoted himself to the art of high-relief carving, and in the process became not merely the foremost Gribbons expert, but a master carver himself. The Lost Carving: A Journey to the Heart of Making details Esterly's restoration of a Gribbons drop at Hampton Court, but it is more than this. "I was apprenticed to a phantom, and lived among mysteries," he writes of that time, and the memoir is indeed as much about engagement with the past, and the preservation of ancient arts, as it is one man's journey. If you are in New York, through January 18, you can see Esterly's intricate and beautiful work on display at W. M. Brady and Co. —Sadie Stein
No matter how hard you try, you can't help but stare at a train wreck, and Stephen Rodrick's behind-the-scenes New York Times Magazine profile of Paul Schrader's film The Canyons fills the guilty-pleasure, sweet-tooth fix quite nicely. A director desperate for a hit; a screenwriter (Bret Easton Ellis) more concerned with waging social-media jihads than actually writing; a porn star (James Deen) with a sensitive side; a budget that wouldn't cover Kanye West's ego; and, of course, Hollywood's favorite child-star-turned-TMZ-punchline Lindsay Lohan: while this equation might not add up to a box office hit, it's a fascinating look at the absurdity of Hollywood filmmaking. To see what's become of the film so far, check out the trailer. —Justin Alvarez

Course description
Learn about the geology of Mount Mazama and the Crater Lake caldera during an evening presentation and a one-day field trip. The evening session will introduce the mountain's geologic setting, describe its eruptive history and products, and review its potential hazards. The field trip will give students opportunities to study a variety of volcanic and glacial features around the margin of the caldera as well as explore one of the world's most spectacular lakes.
Course status
- Scheduled: Fall 2013 (23 and 24-Aug)
- Section number (CRN): xxxx
Course format
Crater Lake Field Geology (XNH 0330) is a non-credit course that is offered through the College's extension program in a short-term lecture plus field trip format. This course is intended for students who have completed Geology of Crater Lake (GEOL 0830) and wish to learn more. If you have not yet completed Geology of Crater Lake please do so before enrolling in Crater Lake Field Geology.
Information on Volcano Boat Tour
During our upcoming class, Crater Lake Field Geology, you will have the opportunity to take the boat tour of the caldera if you wish. The tour is conducted by the Park's concessionaire, Xanterra and costs $35 (not included, unfortunately, in the registration fee for the class). If you have not taken the tour before I highly recommend it, but there are a couple of things you should consider before making a reservation: 1) We will be at the Park on Saturday 24-August and, because of our schedule, if you wish to take the boat tour you need to sign up for the tour that departs at 1:30 PM that day. We will drop you off by 1:00 PM so that you have time to hike down to the dock. (For folks who do not wish to take the tour we will have alternate field trip stops along the eastern margin of the caldera). 2) To reach the dock where the boats depart you hike down the Cleetwood Cove trail which descends 900 vertical feet to the lake. The trail is well graded and partly shaded by trees, but you'll want to bring water and a hat (especially for the hike back up). There are bathrooms at both the top and bottom of the trail. 3) The tour lasts two hours and you're out in an open boat with lots of reflection from the lake surface, so you'll want to wear plenty of sunscreen and bring a windbreaker in case things turn cool out on the water. 4) Finally, there will not be time for you to get off at Wizard Island but you can always come back and do that another time! The boat tour gives you a unique perspective on the geology of the caldera and is a lot of fun. If you would like to do it you can make arrangements through the concessionaire's website: http://www.craterlakelodges.com/activities/volcano-boat-cruises/. Remember, you need to sign up for the 1:30 PM tour on Saturday, August 24. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. Looking forward to seeing you for our first class session on 21-August.

Ramirez fans 10 in RoughRiders' win
Rangers prospect allows two hits over six scoreless innings
By Jake Seiner / Special to MLB.com | June 15, 2013 7:59 PM ET
Among the most important tools in Neil Ramirez's bag? A nerve-calming deep breath.
The old inhale-and-exhale served the Rangers' No. 16 prospect well Saturday night, helping the right-hander settle his overly hyper self. That, paired with a deceptive changeup, helped Ramirez strike out 10 and limit Corpus Christi to two hits over six innings in Double-A Frisco's 3-0 victory.
The 10 strikeouts were one shy of a season high for Ramirez, who punched out 11 against Midland on May 14.
After he struck out Jiovanni Mier and Raoul Torrez to begin the game, adrenaline briefly got the better of Ramirez as he walked Jonathan Singleton and Domingo Santana consecutively.
"I just started kind of working a little fast," the 24-year-old right-hander said. "I had a little adrenaline going in the first inning. I slowed down and told myself to focus on making pitches."
Ramirez (8-2) regained control in short order, getting Erik Castro swinging to escape the jam and sailing smoothly through the next five innings. He issued a two-out free pass to Max Stassi in the second, but that was his last walk and he set down the next eight hitters allowing a double to Stassi in the fifth. He followed that by fanning Drew Muren and Mier.
Torrez led off the sixth with a single, but Ramirez struck out the next three hitters -- the heart of the Hooks' order -- to wrap up his outing at 95 pitches.
Ramirez worked primarily with a fastball-changeup combination, though he also throws a slider and curveball. The fastball can tick into the mid-90s and though he's long boasted a solid changeup, he thinks recent improvements to the offering have made it even more effective.
"The last couple of outings, I've felt like my changeup has come along pretty good," he said. "I have the confidence in my breaking stuff as well, but my changeup has been really good these last couple outings.
"I really like to throw it to right-handers as well as lefties. I just need to keep the same hand speed and throw it enough like my fastball."
The past few seasons have featured a whirlwind of promotions for the 44th overall pick in the 2007 Draft as he jumped three levels all the way to the Texas League in 2011. Last year, Texas bumped him up to Triple-A Round Rock, but after 15 disappointing starts, the organization sent him back to Frisco to rediscover his form.
Ramirez appears to have found that this season, posting a 3.12 ERA with 91 strikeouts and 36 walks in 75 innings. While small improvements to his repertoire, like his still-improving changeup, have helped, it's adjustments to his mental approach that have helped him corral occasional command problems.
"Sometimes I speed up a little and leave the ball up in my delivery," Ramirez said. "Having the intent to throw the pitch where I want it and with the stuff on it I want is what will keep me in the strike zone.
"I can't try to miss bats too early. If you get ahead, 0-2, then you can take your shot. And after that, then you come back into the zone. I need to be efficient with my pitches, not try to do too much. That's when I get in trouble."
Odubel Herrera went 2-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored for the RoughRiders, who snapped a four-game losing streak.

Post subject: My Thoughts on what 'REALLY' needs to be done.
I'm more of a Jets fan but I also love the giants. Mainly because I love my home New York. I'm the Jets fan in our family along with my dad... my 2 brothers are Giants fans but we all love the Jets and Giants equally. If it ever came down to Giants vs. Jets... my dad and i would pick jets and my brothers would go with the giants.
Quick wording of what i think needs to be done...
1 ) Strahan and Osi must stay healthy.. if they can, that D-line will be able to stop the run and be able to rush the passer to force him to throw quicker than he wants to (which will create mistakes for the qb)
2 ) Our Corners are fine.. Will, William, Cutris, and Frank are all Speedy and can stop the pass 75% of the time or even more if they can stay healthy. (whoever said our corners suck is a very dumb person, giants had one of the top 10 pass defenses this year)
3 ) There's a problem with our Strong Safeties. Gibril Wilson and Shaun Williams are both very good weapons to use.. so I think one of them should stay as Strong Safety and the other should convert to Free Safety because our Free safeties suck... they're old and they won't help us get any better. I don't even know if it's possible to convert to a free safety (but i hope the giants will give it a try) because if Gibril Wilson and Shaun Williams were out on the field together, playing side by side. one playing Free Safety and the other playing Strong Safety.. i think our secondary will be fine at stopping the pass along with Allen and Peterson.
4 ) Barret Green needs to stay as Right Linebacker and Carlos Emmons still has a couple years left at his position before he starts to slow down. The only concern left on defense is middle linebacker.. if Lewis or Greisen can promise to step up next season and play at their hardest.. i'm thinking we can trust them and not focus on a MLB in the upcoming draft and free agency.
5 ) We need to try and get a good Left or Right Tackle in either the draft or free agency. That way we'll have a much better o-line than last year. david d. can move to guard with snee... and luke and a new left or right tackle can provide outside protection and our center is fine for now. If you think about it.. our o-line isn't that bad at all.. tiki barber was one of the best running backs this past year (one of the top 5) .. so if our o-line can improve a little bit in the offseason.. then i think barber will be making another pro-bowl appearance in 2006 (hopefuly).. Doing all this will also give Shockey more chances to run out and catch some balls because usually he has to stay in the pocket with the o-line to help block to protect manning and make room for barber to run after catching a screen pass.
6 ) I think the giants can make the playoffs without adding a speedy wide reciever. I think Toomer and Taylor have what it takes to catch those deep balls (taylor has proved it recently) And with Tim Carter being healthy.. everyone knows he's fast as hell (just as fast as Terrel Owens But not as fast as Harrison, Holt, or Moss. But Manning can use a reciever with that speed and Carter will have to play at his hardest this upcoming season to prove that he belongs in new york as one of Eli's targets to pass to. I really don't think giants should focus on Wide Recievers in the upcoming draft and free agency.. I think they should focus on Middle Linebacker, Defensive Tackle, Offensive Linemen, and Back-up Power Running Back(for 3rd and short situations) I think we should focus on Wide Recievers in Next Year's Draft because we'll have our Round 1 pick back along with the rest of the rounds.
The Giants will get better.. i'm proud to have manning on the team, they just need a little bit of time, and i promise EVERYONE that Tom Coughlin will turn this team into an Elite Team that will be on the top charts with teams like the Eagles and Steelers. (by the way, did everyone watch the Giants vs. Steelers game?? Giants only lost by 3 points !!!!! That means they had a chance to win !!! and the Giants had most of their starters on Injured Reserve when they played the steelers.. so can you imagine what the giants could have done to the steelers with all of their starters healthy ???? !!!!!!
I'm confident, i know the G-men will be back in the playoff hunt. This upcoming season is gonna look good.. its the feeling I have that's telling me all of this.
thanks for reading

at least one of those OT's... They should make LB Bell a really good offer cuz nick greisen won't help us at all... make a really good offer to plaxico... and i also think Reggie Wayne will be a free agent so we should make him an offer too. I heard rumors on sports radio about giants wanting to go after Plax and Wayne. DT Jason Ferguson will be re-signed by the jets so he wont be available. They should try to get Josh Evans becuause he played pretty well before his season ending injury last year. I think they should just try there best to make all of these guys an offer and then they should see who is interested and who isn't. I'm hoping for a Free Safety... MLB... DT... OT ... and WR. If atleast one guy in each of these positions get's signed... we should be fine next season. All i want is to kick the eagles [inappropriate/removed] twice in a row, which hasn't happened in a while.

Post subject: I hear ya!
I really hope the Giants make some good smart moves with some of these players. The fact that alot of them are really not that high profile is a good sign. The Giants never sign any high profile guys. Now that Walter Jones signed a 7 year deal, the OT market just got a little tighter. Jonas Jennings is the guy the Giants will probably target, but I just don't know what he'll ask. If Bell and Evans check out healthy, then their addition to the roster would be huge. A good free agent FS would be icing on the cake, but some of these needs will come from the draft. I am definately hoping the Giants are motivated by the thought kicking the "snot" out of the Eagles this year. I hear you there! That is step 1 to the super bowl!

I think that health would beneift the Giants more than anything, with the exception of a top LT, which they probably wont get through FA.... personally I wouldn't pay a guy like Jennings what he's asking. Other than that...
D-Line: Although it would be nice to sign a few younger players, I'd hold off for one more year.
LB's" This is where the mess starts... Green cant stay healthy, we have no MLB and Torbor is a "tweener" who's great in a 3-4, but must improve to stay on the field in a 4-3 as an OLB. I like Emmons, but who knows how long he'll be around. I think this should be the second priority for the Giants in FA in the draft. I like Kendrell Bell and Hartwell, but if they're asking for too much, I think the draft is full of solid MLB's and a few OLB's.
Secondary: Move Gibril Wilson (assuming he's healthy) to SS and sign a FS. As for CB, get rid of Will Allen and draft a CB in round 2 (assuming there's no LT available).
O-Line: This is the big question mark.... Will Khalif barnes fall? Will the Giants overpay a decent LT? Jones and Pace are out of consideration, so I think we'll see the Giants try to draft a LT. If no one is worth the pick, Luke P. will be the starter again.
WR: Quite simply, a draft must, but I dont like the FA's. Either too old or headaches (Plaxico).
RB: Limited crop in FA, save for Lamont Jordan.... many in the draft.
Unofortunately, we're short on picks!

Post subject: FA/DRAFT STRATEGY
I think the Giants should sign Jennings at OT,Hartwell at LB, Josh Evans at DT, and maybe a good FS. I think the draft will be their best bet for evrything else. I think the Giants wil have a very good chance at having a very good receiver slip to them. Last year was a deep WR draft, meaning many teams will not be looking that way this year. I think Roddy White will be the guy the Giants end up with. I think Mike Nugent, the PK out of Ohio State would be the best pick for the Giants in the 3rd round. In the 4th round, there is that kid Jacobs out of So. Illinois. He is a 260 monster who could fill in at FB and he has the burst Dayne never had.

socalscholar... all good players, but i think the giants should focus elsewhere in the draft than a kicker and a fullback.... many starters were actually 6th or 7th round picks, and many more UFA's. i'd rather try to stack the defense with our top picks.

i think the giants should go all out on kendrell bell. we couldnt keep what shouldve been short gains last year from springing into first downs. as for hartwell, no because playing next to ray lewis can mask a lot of weaknesses. that should be our no.1 FA priority. no.2 should be to get a DT, and im liking tony williams. those 2 fa signings would bolster our D a great deal. and then get Kareem McKenzie at OT. he played very well for the jets, and could fill in and dominate at LT right away. then id focus in on the draft on offense. chris henry should be there when the giants pick, and believe me, he has the tools to be just as good as braylon or mike williams.his character could be an issue, but it seems to me a lot of collegiate foolishness is lost in the nfl, and under coughlin's tutelage, it wont fly. in the 3rd round id make sure to come away with a backup RB to tiki, preferably one that has a nose for those short yardage situation. vernand morency might be available, but if not, there are others capable of doing the job.

Post subject: PK
Nobody here is addressed the need for a place kicker. The Giants lost many close games last year due in part. a big part, to not having a decent kicking game. Feagles I still think is an incredible directional punter, but Steve Christie had no leg on kick offs and was a mediocre at field goals at best. If healthy, I like Joe Nedney, who was cut by the Titans. Otherwise, draft Mike Nugent, the stud PK from Ohio State. The special teams yards gained from the PK are quite often overlooked and can mean an extra series of downs each time an opposing offense comes on the field. So, we bolster up the defense along with the addition of a good PK and the Giants will be in the playoffs this year.

that was 2003 buddy. last year, outside of the GB game which we won anyway, steve christie had a very solid season, particularly in his 3/4 from beyond 50 yards. with the giants urgent needs elsewhere, they dont have the luxury of spending a 3rd rounder on a kicker, as good as mike nugent is. people look to adam vinatieiri and sure he is a great, but there is a team that gives him the opportunity to do so.

Post subject: PK
He was 78.6 % for the season and all I know is there were many 3/4 from more than fifty is a telling stat. They clearly did'nt have confidence in him from long distance if he only had four attempts all season. Also look at the average return yardage against him. He was fifteen in avg kickoff distance, 57.7 yards, which means a team starts running it back from their 8 yard line. He kicked 2 touchbacks all season! Not good! How is that not a vital need? Like I said, this is hidden yardage that wins games!

A PLAYMAKER on defense. After Strahan and Wilson were lost for the season, the defense was horrendous. The Giants will always need to be a defense-first team, it is their natural make up. The second round pick needs to be a middle linebacker which their are plenty of in the draft. They can't afford to have Greisen and Lewis getting blown up at the line and then chasing big plays because they are way too slow.
Draft a middle linebacker with the second round pick, and then a free safety with the third round pick so that Shaun Williams and Brent Alexander both way too slow can be erased from our memories forever. Then place Wilson at SS.
As for the offense, the Giants just can't draft wide receivers. Joe Jurevicius, Brian Alford, Ron Dixon, Tim Carter, Ike Hilliard, all awful. Go after a veteran at WR like Derrick Mason who got released by the Titans. Godd possesion WR who can help bring Manning along.
In summary, draft a MLB, and FS with the high picks. Help the offense with a veteran tackle and WR like Derrick Mason.
A short yardage back would be great too. Someone like a Zack Crockett. Kyle Eckel perhaps.
Keep bringing in the pass rushers and evrything else will take care of itself.

I feel MLB is our biggest concern. The Offensive line has been hurt with injuries. But I think they will be a much better group next year even without chaning the line up. Jason Whittle might lose his job, he's an 8 year pro now so he's getting a bit old but from what I hear Seubert is coming back. After having Diehl learn the Tackle position this year, he should be improved by next year too. So we have:
LT Luke Petigout
LG Rich Seubert
C Sean O'Hara
RG Chris Snee
RT David Diehl
Not too bad. But then we have Kevin Lewis and Nick Greisen. That is what really needs an upgrade. Maybe a guy like Odell Thurman or Kirk Morrison. MLB is definitely a need whether is be in Free Agency or the Draft.
FS is the safety need. But it may not be a need. Shaun Williams is over-payed. As for Gibril Wilson, he is ALREADY a Strong Safety. Brent Alexander is an old fart. He got lucky on a few plays, his days as a productive player are over. Williams has been injured so it's not like he has stunk the last two years but he has been a disappointment. I say move Wilson to Free Safety. He is smaller and faster than Williams and would be better in coverage as a Free Safety and Williams could play up closer to the line where he would cover slower guys like the TE's. After releasing Omar Stoutmire they have a need at FS and they're going to have to solve this problem whether it be moving a player's position or drafting a player in the draft.

The share market has fallen for a fourth straight session as investors weigh up a possible escalation of conflict in Ukraine and potential interest rates hikes in the US.
Reports that Russia is massing troops on the Ukraine border and anticipation that the US central bank is signalling the beginning of its rate-lifting cycle pulled US and Asian markets lower.
OptionsXpress market analyst Ben Le Brun said the local market's fall of 0.12 per cent was a better performance than others in the region.
"The market has not done that well but is definitely outperforming the region," he said.
Fear of escalating conflict in the Ukraine was not a strong factor for local investors, he said.
Strong earnings reports from companies in coming days and weeks could also partly insulate the local market from any correction on Wall Street, Mr Le Brun added.
"Looking at the performance of Rio Tinto, which is due to report tomorrow, there might just be a little bit of buying ahead of that fact," he said.
"We're playing a bit of wait-and-see, and, hopefully, we do start to march to the beat of our own drum with some stronger earnings despite whatever what is happening in an offshore context."
Rio Tinto added 49 cents to $65.82, BHP Billiton rose 31 cents to $38.32 and Fortescue Metals dropped one cent to $4.69.
Mining services provider Ausdrill sank 9.5 cents, or 8.9 per cent, to 97 cents, after the company flagged another profit writedown and warned a recovery in the industry would likely be slower than expected.
Among the major banks, Commonwealth Bank lost 35 cents to $81.71, ANZ dropped 16 cents to $32.98, National Australia Bank shed six cents to $34.63 and Westpac was steady at $33.67.
Explosives producer Orica fell by 68 cents to $20.67 as it unveiled plans to demerge or sell its chemicals business.
* On Wednesday, the benchmark S&P/ASX200 index was down 6.6 points, or 0.12 per cent, at 5,512 points.
* The broader All Ordinaries index was down 7.5 points, or 0.14 per cent, at 5,504 points.
* The September share price index futures contract was down 16 points at 5,458 points, with 26,152 contracts traded.
* National turnover was 1.46 billion shares worth $3.92 billion.
* The price of gold in Sydney at 1700 AEST was $US1,291.50 per fine ounce, up 50 US cents on Tuesday's price of $US1,291.

Bryan Vadheim of Miles City, who plans to combine his academic interests of chemical engineering and economics to benefit the environment on a global scale, has become Montana State University's first Marshall Scholar.
His selection as a Marshall Scholar, one of the most selective scholarships awarded to American students, means that Vadheim will receive two years of education in the United Kingdom. He plans to earn a master's degree from the London School of Economics as well as a master's degree in engineering specializing in water science and governance from King's College, also in London.
"I'd been looking at the Marshall Scholarship for some time because it allowed for two degrees, which was perfect for me," said Vadheim, who is a man of varied yet deep interests. In addition to majors in chemical engineering and economics, he will graduate in May with minors in statistics, mathematics and business administration. He credits an assortment of mentors at MSU with encouraging the development of his interests.
"One of the things that I have been most appreciative of is how many opportunities I've had while I've been here (at MSU) and how supportive the professors, faculty and staff have been of my efforts," Vadheim said.
An MSU Presidential Scholar and a member of MSU's University's Honors Program, Vadheim distinguished himself nearly the first time he stepped on campus, said Ilse-Mari Lee, director of the University Honors Program.
"Bryan is not only a highly gifted multi-disciplinary scholar, but also a leader among his peers and a compassionate individual," said Lee, who added that the Marshall Scholarship is very similar to the Rhodes Scholarship. However, while Rhodes Scholars must study in the Oxford University system, the Marshall Scholarship may be used at any institution in the U.K. Vadheim interviewed for the Marshall Scholarship at the British Consulate in San Francisco. About 40 American scholars across the country are selected to study at the graduate level at an U.K. institution for the scholarship, created by the Parliament of the United Kingdom in 1953 in honor of Gen. George C. Marshall as a living gift in recognition of the post-World War II European Recovery Plan, commonly known as the Marshall Plan.
Interestingly, Vadheim's longtime college roommate at MSU was Joe Thiel, who also learned last week that he received a Rhodes Scholarship. Both are Presidential Scholars and have at least one major in engineering.
"(Bryan) will serve as wonderful ambassador for Montana and MSU in the United Kingdom," Lee said. "We are so proud of all Bryan's accomplishments. He possesses the intellect, energy and compassion to make a pronounced difference in this world."
The youngest son of an internist and a nutritionist, Vadheim was born and raised in Miles City and has a deep passion for the outdoors fostered by summers spent in a family cabin in Silvergate, Mont., and hiking in the Beartooth Mountains. He knew he would like to study chemical engineering, his interest in chemistry encouraged by Brenda Martin, his chemistry teacher at Custer County High School. He said while he looked at a few other engineering programs across the country, MSU's excellence in chemical engineering as well as its proximity to a world-class environment and outdoor activities appealed to him. He was also impressed with the personal connection he received when he asked to tour the campus before his senior year.
"The associate director of the Honors Program (Bruce Morton, retired dean of the MSU Libraries) took time to come in and meet me and my family, even though it was summer. From that first moment I felt welcome on campus," Vadheim recalled.
Vadheim became involved in research at MSU even before his freshman year, according to Abigail Richards, professor in MSU's Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering and one of Vadheim's mentors. The summer before his freshman year he worked at MSU's Imaging and Chemical Analysis Laboratory and has since made significant contributions to several research projects, including a study of the interactions between biofilms and moving fluids conducted with Jeff Heys, MSU professor and interim department head of the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering. He received a National Science Foundation award to spend a summer with Ernest Blatchley at Purdue University researching a solar UV water disinfection system that can be used in Third World countries. The research resulted in both an article in the journal Water Research as well as an international patent application.
"Bryan remains at the top in his classes while simultaneously volunteering within the MSU and Bozeman community and still finds time to conduct undergraduate research," Richards said. "Bryan is a very talented young man who possesses a generous nature and altruistic core values that are combined with an impressive track record in research and outstanding academic credentials."
As part of MSU's award-winning Engineers Without Borders, Vadheim spent an earlier summer in Kenya as the leader of a five-person team that designed and implemented a composting latrine and installed a well for an elementary school in the Khwisero District of western Kenya. He has also served as treasurer for that group, overseeing an annual operating budget of $100,000 and assisting with writing grant proposals, one of which was funded by the Koch Foundation.
About the same time, he became passionate about economics when he took a University Honors class on the subject.
"It became clear to me that projects to correct the environment don't work without a change to the economics, likewise changes to the economics cannot work without projects to solve environmental problems," Vadheim said, adding that was the impetus to study both disciplines to truly effect change.
In addition, Vadheim has been involved in a long list of campus activities. As president of MSU's Alpha Delta Lambda Honorary, he has organized activities include ushering for the Bozeman Symphony, participating in the Relay for Life, and regularly visiting a local retirement home. He is active in the National Society of Collegiate Scholars, the student group "Men Stopping Rape," the American Institute of Chemical Engineers and the Network of the Environmentally Conscious Organizations. He also volunteers at the Museum of the Rockies as an exhibit guide.
Following his years in the United Kingdom, Vadheim plans to return to the U.S. to earn a doctorate in economics. He foresees a career with the International Money Fund or World Bank working in environmental policy.
"But I love Montana and I can't imagine being away from it for very long," Vadheim said. "I will always find time to come back to hike every summer."
Vadheim said if there was advice that he would give to other students coming behind him, it would be to ask for help.
"The professors around here are pretty incredible," Vadheim said. "They are very willing to take an interest in students and offer opportunity to people who ask."

im just trying to see how you see him winning, you must have an idea of how he will be successful in the fight?? Most people say why they think something and how they come to that conclusion.
If you didn't see it with your own eyes, or hear it with your own ears, don't invent it with your small mind and share it with your big mouth!
Ray's had a nice bit of time between fights now to improve which should help him. I thought ray should have finished warburton when he took his back and there seemed to be a cardio issue which doesn't bode we'll in a tournament structure. I'm hoping he comes in and really makes a statement though, Scotland needs a star.
Fuck no-gi
Stevie didn't have the best preparation for the Warburton fight as things were rushed going to Canada and the training that time around wasnt nearly as good as this time. He went for longer this time, done more training, sparring and personal sessions with their trainers and will have more time back in the UK now with the Dinky Ninja's to go over gameplans etc. He doesn't have any Cardio issues whatsoever plus there is a break in between so it's not as though he will fight 8 solid rounds.
We are looking forward to this event alot
www.ontoppromotions.co.uk - MMA Promotion/Fighter Management
Fuck no-gi
This time round he had 6 weeks there in the Dorms and has been sparring with all their UFC guys (even drilled with GSP) and had much more assistance with the trainers and extra paid for PT's etc. This time aswell there were guys in fight camp for this weeks UFC including Mike Ricci, John Makdessi and Mark Bocek (think he's out injured now though?) so he managed to get in on alot of training.
The tourny obviously has a wealth of talent. Each guy is good and will be tough to finish as if you look there are not many "finishing" losses on the records of the fighters (most of Steven's were at WW).
All being good between now and fight night then we feel that he has all the tools to win that belt

Good stuff. Hope to see the improvements in the tourney.

Poet laureate to speak at USC's Thomas Cooper Society dinner
By Peggy Binette, email@example.com, 803-777-5400
W.S. Merwin, a U.S. poet laureate, will deliver the address at this year's annual Thomas Cooper Society dinner Friday, April 20, at the University of South Carolina.
Merwin will speak at 6:30 p.m. in the Hollings Special Collections Library. At the dinner he will be awarded the Thomas Cooper Society Medal, the society's highest literary honor.
Named the U.S. poet laureate for 2010-2011, Merwin has written more than 30 books of poetry, translation and prose. His literary awards are numerous, including two Pulitzer Prizes and a National Book Award. His first book, "A Mask for Janus," was chosen by W.H. Auden in 1952 for the Yale Younger Poets series, and his most recent poetry collection, "Present Company," won the Rebekah Johnson Bobbitt National Prize for Poetry.
His other award-winning collections include "Migration: Selected Poems 1951-2001,"which won the National Book Award, and "The Shadow of Sirius," which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize. In 1999, Merwin was named Poetry Consultant to the Library of Congress, a position held jointly with poets Rita Dove and Louise Glück.
The cost to attend the dinner is $45 for Thomas Cooper Society members and $55 for nonmembers. For tickets, contact Maggie Bergmans at firstname.lastname@example.com or 803-777-3142.
Merwin will be the 16th recipient of the medal. Previous recipients were Pat Conroy, Joseph Heller, James Dickey, John Updike, William Styron, Ray Bradbury, George Plimpton, John Jakes, Derek Walcott, Joyce Carol Oates, Edward Albee, Norman Mailer, Larry McMurtry and USC's Matthew Bruccoli and Janette Turner Hospital.
The Thomas Cooper Society is the community organization for Thomas Cooper Library. Established in 1990, the organization provides support for the library's literary collections and programs. Thomas Cooper, for whom the main library is named, was the second president of South Carolina College, a friend of Thomas Jefferson and a distinguished scientist and political economist.

Adam Levine Jokes About What He Wore at First Wango Tango
Photo: Getty Images
By Sierra Marquina
Maroon 5 is the latest group to join this year's Wango Tango lineup!
Adam Levine phoned in to On Air with Ryan Seacrest and laughed about his first Wango Tango performance back in 2004, where we donned a red "Cancun" t-shirt.
"I remember that shirt … I was probably 23 or 24," says Adam. "I remember not knowing [anything] … I was like a kid … now I'm 35 — yikes."
Adam and Ryan also joked about what Ryan wore to his first Wango Tango … a graphic t-shirt and blazer.
And when he looks back to a decade ago, the now Sexiest Man Alive says he "was totally happy because all my dreams had come true."
However, when he considers his spot on NBC's hit show The Voice, continued success with Maroon 5, and not to mention is engaged to model Behati Prinsloo, the singer shares it is "kind of surreal."
When it comes to his fiancé and upcoming nuptials, Adam is mum, however does admit it's still happening.
"We've carved out some time … I'm still holding [time] before the end of the year to do my thing and … do all those wonderful personal things we like to do."

Agree, the last one from first post (slate look) is a keeper. It reminds me of one of the Quake logos. Can you recreate it in different shades: gray, blue and greenish tints would all be neat.

Gold beyond the 'brinkBronze now the best Calgary rink can do after loss to Swiss
By ERIC FRANCIS -- Calgary Sun
PINEROLO, Italy -- Overcome with sickness and emotion, Amy Nixon stepped off the ice, crumpled to her knees, lowered her forehead to the ground and cried.
Having just shaken the hands of Mirjam Ott's Swiss rink after a 7-5 loss in the Olympic curling semifinal, the exhausted third on Shannon Kleibrink's Calgary rink could finally let it all out.
Despite a long, rinkside hug from her father minutes later, the tears continued.
"It's been a tough two or three days," said her father and coach Daryl Nixon, of a flu-like sickness doctors haven't been able to pinpoint.
"She had worked so hard to build enough energy to play the game so, when it was over, that just kind of released. She probably was 60 percent at the start of the game and she was just trying to run on fumes. She just doesn't have a lot of energy left."
Two days after her illness forced her to miss the final round- robin game, the 28-year-old
Calgarian did what she could to help a team that gave up three in the third end and never recovered.
"Amy is not usually like that but she's also very sick, so it's very hard for her to be out there. I think she's pretty emotional because of that," said Kleibrink, 37, whose lead, Invermere's Christine Keshen, is just getting over some sort of bug.
"It's disappointing but, at the same time, we've had such a hard week with so many people getting sick. Amy can barely sweep halfway down the ice right now. If we can come away with a medal, we'll be very happy."
Forced to sit on the back bumper to rest after throwing her rocks, Nixon was unable to provide the type of leadership her Winter Club crew has counted on.
"When you're trying to stand up, it's a bit difficult to be positive and cheer on your teammates," said Nixon, who has lost considerable weight off her 118-lb. frame.
"I'm usually an energy, firecracker kind of person, so it's challenging for the team when that's the kind of person I was out there today.
"That's no excuse. I still have to make shots."
Whether she'll be well enough to make shots this morning will be decided after warmup as the team contemplates putting in Sandra Jenkins, who filled in admirably Monday.
Regardless of the quartet they ice for the bronze-medal matchup against Dordi Nordby's Norwegian rink, Calgary's Glenys Bakker said it will be easy to bounce back.
"Getting up for (today's) game won't be difficult at all -- we want to go home with a medal -- I don't care what colour it is," said Bakker, whose squad beat Norway 10-8 in the round-robin.
"We missed a couple key shots early on when we could have gotten deuces and they didn't miss after that."
Although Keshen curled at 84%, her teammates were all in the 60% range, making it surprising they crawled back into the game in the seventh end when a measurement gave the team two and closed the gap to 5-4. However, Kleibrink's final shot of the eighth end didn't curl and stayed wide, allowing Ott to finish with a delicate raise to score two for a 7-4 lead.
Anette Norberg's Swedish rink beat Norway 5-4 with a last-rock takeout in the other semifinal.
The Calgary rink will now look to extend Canada's Olympic women's curling medal string to three after the late Sandra Schmirler won the inaugural Olympic gold in 1998 and Kelley Law's team won bronze in 2002.
"I definitely don't have very good memories of this place yet," said Nixon. "So it would be good tomorrow to come out and have a memory to wrap around my neck."

"The officers suspected something not at all good was afoot."
Those officers described in a recent federal court of appeals decision had just responded to a tip about a prowler at a closed, under-construction apartment complex in North Salt Lake. It was Oct. 5, 2011, and they arrived to find Lance Petersen and his pickup truck.
The officers detained Petersen and searched his vehicle, which led to Petersen being charged in 2nd District Court with two felonies and three misdemeanors for burglary, weapons and drug possession.
The state charges were later dismissed when Petersen was indicted in U.S. District Court for being a felon in possession of a firearm and possession of marijuana.
A federal court judge later granted Petersen's request to suppress evidence in the case, agreeing that it had been collected illegally.
But the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals overturned that ruling last week in a decision penned by Judge Neil Gorsuch.
The decision begins by recounting Petersen's arrest, saying that he initially lied and told officers he never entered the building, then changed his story and claimed to be "engaging in some innocent apartment hunting." However, Petersen's truck bed was resting against the entrance of the building when police arrived, "as if for easy loading and leaving."
The officers handcuffed Petersen and retrieved his wallet from his truck. As an officer was grabbing the wallet, the decision states, he smelled marijuana. Petersen, 42, then denied the officers permission to search his truck.
"This didn't dissuade the officers, though, because they soon searched the truck all the same," the decision states.
The officers found marijuana and a loaded, .38 caliber pistol in the truck.
The federal court trial judge barred prosecutors from using evidence from the search, ruling that Petersen was illegally detained and "what started out fine enough became unlawful as it progressed."
But prosecutors appealed, arguing Petersen's detainment and the ensuing search were legal because "reasonable suspicion had seasoned into probable cause."
The appeals court agreed.
"By the time the officers asked to search the truck," the decision states, "we have no doubt a reasonably prudent person on the scene would have thought Mr. Petersen very probably guilty of burglary."
Petersen's case has been sent back to U.S. District Court for further proceedings.

Related story: Rancho Cucamonga mother allegedly tries to kill daughter on freeway
RANCHO CUCAMONGA - Criminal proceedings were suspended Thursday for a mother accused of trying to kill her 8-year-old daughter so the court could evaluate her mental competency.
Stephanie Aguilar, 31, of Rancho Cucamonga was wearing a mustard-colored jail jumpsuit - which represents unusual behavior - inside the West Valley Superior Court where she was scheduled for a pre-preliminary hearing.
Her attorney, Deputy Public Defender Gary Wynings, expressed doubt at Thursday's hearing concerning Aguilar's ability to stand trial and asked the judge for two psychologists' reports.
Deputy District Attorney Karen Schmauss requested that one of those reports be done by a psychiatrist.
Judge Cara D. Hutson ruled that the reports be completed by Dec. 6, which is the next scheduled hearing.
The evaluation is only intended to determine Aguilar's current state of mind and whether she can assist her attorney in her defense, Schmauss said.
Aguilar's mindset during the incident on Halloween will not be evaluated at this time, she added.
If Aguilar is found incompetent to stand trial, she will be sent to Patton State Hospital for treatment until she is deemed competent.
However, if the reports show Aguilar is mentally competent the court will reinstate the criminal proceedings.
Aguilar was arrested Nov. 1, the day after she allegedly tried to kill her daughter by slamming their vehicle into the back of a tractor-trailer on the westbound 10 Freeway near Mills Avenue, Montclair police officers said.
Witnesses reported seeing Aguilar punch the girl and slam her head into the vehicle's center console following the collision, authorities said.
When the California Highway Patrol arrived on scene Aguilar allegedly attacked the officer, police said.
Aguilar has been charged with seven felonies: attempted murder, willful cruelty to a child, inflicting injury upon a child, two counts of assault with deadly weapon, assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury, and resisting an executive officer, according to court records.
She is facing a life sentence.
The incident has shocked Aguilar's family, who were at court Thursday for the hearing.
"She is a very good mom," Aguilar's stepmother Christine Alba said about the mother of three.
Alba said she has never seen Aguilar hurt her children.
"Not even a spanking," she said.
Aguilar's father Abraham Alba said his daughter has never been in trouble with the law and that there is no history of mental illness in their family.
"This doesn't make sense to us," he said about the accusations.
"We're all asking questions, and we don't have any answers," Aguilar's brother Raymond Covarrubias said. "She just snapped, and this is where she is."

A former Rutgers University student convicted of bias crimes for spying on his gay roommate was sentenced to 30 days in jail in a case that drew international attention and illustrated the reach of the law into the realm of online social media. Dharun Ravi, 20 years old, had faced a maximum of 10 years in prison and still could be deported for his conviction of invasion of privacy and bias intimidation. Mr. Ravi used a webcam to stream video of his roommate, Tyler Clementi, and another man during a sexual encounter in their dorm room in September 2010. Mr. Ravi posted messages on Twitter about the encounter, and Mr. Clementi later committed suicide by jumping off the George Washington Bridge.

Helmut Lang Fall 2013
Nicole and Michael Colovos may take a subdued, laid-back stance when it comes to modern dressing, but scratch beneath the surface of their latest collection and there is more at play than urban daywear. The couple were captivated by the "Picasso Black and White" exhibition at the Gagosian Gallery last October and soon found themselves absorbed in Richard Prince's tome, Prince/Picasso: a gritty assimilation of the cubist artist's creations, where abstractly painted faces were graffitied over sketches of the female form. With both references as their starting point, the duo set about injecting their own take on collaged artistry into fall. Case in point: a duchesse satin T-shirt which had been screen-printed with purposeful graphic chaos, then soaked in a paint-like pigment for a rubberized effect. Meanwhile, what appeared to be a relatively straightforward liquid silk skirt, was, in fact, a hand-cut, 132-piece patchwork of laminated silks and leather.
But there was nothing remotely pretentious about this luxurious, wearable collection, which had been threaded together with the pair's signature sense of effortlessness. "Not as loose as spring, but not as strict as we've made it in the past," is how a cool, calm Nicole described the silhouette backstage before the show. "I call it a sharp slouch; it's the perfect combination of the two." Although there was plenty here that stayed true to Helmut Lang's masculine, monochromatic DNA—the glimmering argent tuxedos in the finale, for instance—with their amorphous flocculent fur coats continuing along spring's oversize trajectory, it is clear the duo are set on steering the brand in a more graphic direction.

Hendrick van Steenwyck the Elder
Interior of Aachen Cathedral
Hendrick van Steenwyck the Elder
Flemish, ca. 1550-1603
Interior of Aachen Cathedral, 1575
Oil on panel
50.8 x 69.5 cm (20 x 27 3/8 inches)
Gift of Drs. Arnold-Peter C. and Yvonne S. Weiss 2000.25
This quiet interior depicts the symbolic center of the Holy Roman Empire in the 16th century—the Palatine Chapel at Aachen Cathedral, which housed the remains of the Empire's founder, Charlemagne, who reigned from 768–814. In this view of 1575, van Steenwyck accurately describes the space within the Palatine Chapel, a structure whose domed octagonal core was ringed by an aisle and upper gallery, the whole set inside a sixteen-sided exterior shell. Completed around 800, the church was expanded in the early fifteenth century by the addition of the Glass Chapel. In this view, the clear fenestration of the Gothic structure may be glimpsed through the sober rotunda of the original chapel. The artist rendered the chapel faithfully, carefully plotting the space with light and shadow and dotting it with small figures in order to convey a sense of scale. Van Steenwyck was the first known artist to specialize in architectural painting, a genre that came to be associated with Netherlandish artists after 1600. This composition exists in more than one copy, which may be explained by Van Steenwyck's probable patrons: civic governments and princely courts who wished to associate themselves with the Holy Roman Empire.

Hump Day Hottie: Gael Garcia Bernal
Gael Garcia Bernal first came to our attention in the 2000 Mexican flick "Amores Perros," but he really won us over with the fearlessly sexy 2001 film "Y Tu Mamá También." Since then, the diminutive (saw him in person once, the tiniest) Guadalajara native has thrilled both Spanish- and English-language audiences. His latest, "No," is a Spanish-language political thriller about a populist campaign to take down Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet. Bernal stars as René Saavedra, a young upstart of an advertising executive who's tasked with creating a public campaign that will mobilize Chile's citizens to vote Pinochet out. It's based on a true story, is up for an Oscar, and looks really good.
You know what else looks really good? Gael Garcia Bernal.
