When most New Jersey residents' tax bills go out this month, assessments on more than 40,000 properties will have been reduced by a total of $4.3 billion due to Hurricane Sandy damage, according to previously unreleased figures by the state Department of the Treasury.
Those reductions were made in the months after the storm, when the Division of Taxation created a system for tax assessors in the hardest-hit communities to use that would help track losses to ratable bases. Through the spring, the state compiled that data into one document to help analyze which local governments would see their budget revenue be most affected by the storm. The Press of Atlantic City acquired that information through an Open Public Records Act request.
What the figures represent are reductions on properties that could not be immediately repaired and will therefore be valued less for 2013 tax purposes. In many cases, homeowners were waiting for more information or insurance money before repairing when inspectors conducted analyses in December and January.
Gov. Chris Christie's office originally estimated what those losses might be when it said in November that Sandy would cost the state $36.9 billion, but this data provides a more precise picture of losses to tax bases.
Ocean County lost $3.6 billion from its total ratable base due solely to storm damage, a 3.8 percent drop from 2012. Monmouth County saw the second largest drop, with about $511 million in reduced assessments, followed by Atlantic County at about $72 million and Cape May County at $26 million.
Outside of Ocean and Monmouth counties, no municipality lost more than 1 percent of its tax base due to Sandy, except for one: rural Downe Township in Cumberland County, which sits on the Delaware Bay and lost about $3.6 million in assessments, or almost 2 percent of its total property assessment.
Downe has been considered as an area where the state could buy flood-prone properties, but Mayor Robert Campbell has fought the idea that his small community needs to be bought off while oceanfront towns are protected.
"I don't see any reason why these communities should disappear rather than Ocean City or Margate or any of the rest of them," he said.
Ocean City accounted for almost the entire assessment reduction in Cape May County, but there was an apparent discrepancy in how much. The state's data said more than $55 million, but that figure is very different from the $22.6 million in Sandy-related reductions Ocean City Tax Assessor Joe Elliot said he had in his records.
The discrepancy could be due to the city's ongoing reassessment, said Lisa Ryan, director of communications for the state Department of Community Affairs, which has been using the data to assist municipalities with their budget issues.
Brigantine, where Sandy made landfall, saw the largest impact to its tax base in Atlantic County, with more than 354 properties losing a total of almost $21 million, which amounted to half of 1 percent of the city's total assessment.
"This was just for people that could not fix their homes immediately," said Brigantine Tax Assessor Barbara Saccoccia, adding that far more properties were damaged than the 354 properties that received assessment reductions there.
Overall, the data make clear that Ocean and Monmouth counties were the hardest hit, by far.
Mantoloking, where almost every property was damaged and scores of homes are still being demolished, lost one-third of its total ratable base. That is a reduction of $530 million from its total assessment of $1.6 billion in 2012.
In most shore communities, the land is worth the majority of the property's entire value, with the improvements accounting for one-third or one-quarter of the total. While most towns saw damage to homes, Sandy destroyed the land in Mantoloking by carving an inlet through the borough, which is why the losses were so dramatic.
Toms River Township lost more than $2 billion in value, about 13 percent of its total and nearly half of the total assessment loss for the entire state.
In Monmouth County, Manasquan saw the largest reduction by dollar amount at $82 million, while Sea Bright lost the most value by percentage at 13 percent of its ratable base.
The storm affected assessments in all but three of the state's 21 counties.
Funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency has softened the tax implications of these losses. Many municipalities have used Community Disaster Loans to support tax revenue that slumped from the damage and cover costs for repairs. Ryan said the state is using the information also to make Essential Services Grants available to bridge any funding gaps.
In many cases, the reductions will be only temporary.
"If they got a reduction, and if they made repairs, they could end up going back to full value at the start of the year," said George R. Brown, Cape May County's tax administrator.

Washington, Aug 10 (ANI): Italy striker Mario Balotelli has revealed his latest purchase to the world via Twitter, which is a pig named 'Super', but was confused over the sex of his new furry friend.
According to Fox Sports, Balotelli announced on Twitter that finally his 2-month old little pig had arrived.
The 22-year-old jokingly said in his tweet that he could not find the 'willy', so he could not know whether the pig was a she or a he.
The former Manchester City forward is famous for letting fireworks off inside his house among other incidents and is now back home in Italy with AC Milan. (ANI)

Wonderful!!These wipes are like magic. They are hypoallergenic for sensitive skin like mine, and leave skin fresh and cleansed. I use one at night before I wash my face, and one in the morning instead of washing my face. They smell fresh and lovely, and really leave your skin clean without drying it out. They also have really helped diminish blackheads. An amazing product for the price! — 9 years, 8 months agoScarlett23 | 75 reviews

A timeless asset to my beauty collectionThese gentle little towelettes are magical! They smell great, don't make me break out, and get rid of even the most stubborn waterproof mascara! They can dry out in the package if you're not careful. The flap on the top tends to curl up after a while and stop sticking so air can get in and dry out the cloths. But I just flip the package over so air can't get in. Also, you can run a little water over a dry towelette to reactivate the removing power! — 9 years, 8 months agoAndreaG | 3 reviews

Careful if you have sensitive skinI tried these immediately when I read about them because I am looking for anything to shorten my nightly cleaning routine. I may have been having an off-week, but my face broke out the next day BAD, and I don't get pimples very often. I can only assume that my sensitive skin reacted badly to something in the remover or the cloth. Very disappointed, because it was easy to use, felt good on my skin and smelled great.

Skin Care and Diseases
Red moles
Several years ago I cut my leg while shaving. I noticed that that spot became a red mole on my thigh. Since then I have noticed other red moles on my hips, under my arms and some across my abdomen. I wonder if this could be some type of poison in my body? My mother and my sister have the same red moles in similar places. Is this hereditary? If not does anyone know what causes them?
Thank you.
With the exception of the red spot that appeared in the cut on your thigh, you have described small cherry angiomas that are seen in virtually every individual over 25 years of age. Occasionally they occur sooner. They are not associated with any significant abnormality to my knowledge. They tend to increase with age, and the extent in number probably is genetically determined. The real understanding of why these appear is not clearly understood.
The red lesion on your thigh may also be one of the cherry angiomas, but at the sight of trauma, occasional pyogenic granulomas appear and these are inflammatory vascular lesions that may enlarge and may bleed but are completely benign.
In order to put your mind at rest, I would urge that you see a board certified dermatologist who can examine all of the lesions and be sure that they are of a benign nature. Please do that at your earliest convenience.

JERUSALEM (Sep. 30)
Premier Yitzhak Rabin has telephoned Finance Minister Yehoshua Rabinowitz who is attending the International Monetary Fund conference in Washington today to return home immediately because of the worsening crisis involving investments by the Israel Economic Corporation in the tottering financial empire of Swiss-Jewish banker Tibor Rosenbaum.
The government–sponsored corporation, established in 1969 with the assistance of Jewish businessmen from North America and Europe, is believed to have sustained losses in excess of $20 million as a result of the failure of Rosenbaum's International Credit Bank of Geneva.
The situation was discussed at length at yesterday's Cabinet meeting where Minister of Commerce and Industry Haim Barlev, filling in for Rabinowitz, announced that he has asked Treasury officials to draft new criteria for investments and deposits by government and government-sponsored corporations.
Meanwhile, Michael Tsur, managing director of the Israel Economic Corp, has been suspended, and board chairman Baron Edmund de Rothschild has reportedly asked Israeli legal authorities whether criminal action could be brought against Tsur for his conduct of the IEC's affairs.
Tsur said today that he would defend his conduct and his investment of IEC funds after the money was recouped or collateral secured. He refused to say how much money was involved but strongly denied that his investments had been speculative in nature as alleged in financial circles here. He refused to divulge details of the emergency board meeting last Friday called by Baron de Rothschild.
According to unconfirmed reports, Baron de Rothschild had ordered Tsur to withdraw all IEC funds on deposit with the Rosenbaum bank in the spring of 1973 after learning of Rosenbaum's financial difficulties. Tsur complied but subsequently invested larger sums in Rosenbaum's bank and other companies controlled by the financier without the knowledge of the IEC board, the unconfirmed reports allege.

A crowd of enthusiastic citizens – including a good number of veterans – turned out at the groundbreaking Oct. 10 for a Rogers Veterans Memorial.
The Veterans Memorial, scheduled to be opened officially July 4, 2014, will be located at the current Triangle Park, 21600 Rouillard Ave. The park will be renamed Lions Park.
It will include a monument representing the five branches of the service, a central flag pole, an engraved monument wall, donated granite pavers, granite benches, and a memorial garden. Eventually, the plan is to incorporate a park shelter building, a pavilion for community events, an asphalt trail, ballfield, horseshoe courts, a splash pad, basketball half-courts, and a children's playground.
"This is a very important piece of our community," Acting Mayor Rick Ihli said. "We want to remember our soldiers forever. We plan to never forget the service and sacrifices they have made."
Dale Fuller, chairman of the Rogers Park Board, said plans for the Veterans Memorial began several years ago, when the Lions expressed a desire to enter into a joint effort with the city.
"They wanted to identify a location they could call their own," Fuller said. "They wanted it to be a location the whole community could enjoy, something centrally located and easy to get to. This is a great place to do it."
According to Fuller, Rogers "has a long history of supporting our veterans and people who served in the military."
"This will be a place for reflection, to spend time and to be proud of," Fuller said. "Our veterans mean a lot to us."
Next summer's ribbon-cutting event will be part of Rogers' centennial celebration, he said.
"Next year will be a big year for our city," Fuller said.
Fundraising for the Veterans Memorial project was kicked off with a $50,000 donation from the city, Fuller said. The Rotary donated $5,000 for the flag pool and has committed a team to put in an estimated $8,000 in plantings at the new park.
"We need $150,000 for the first phase," Fuller said. "We are looking for donations."
Individuals, families or businesses may choose to make a direct monetary contribution, or donate by purchasing dedication pavers in memory of a veteran. They also may donate by sponsoring a vet, purchasing a granite bench or paying for a tree.
Checks payable to City of Rogers, c/o Veterans Memorial, may be sent to 22350 South Diamond Lake Road, Rogers, MN 55374.
Information: 763-428-8580.

This piece originally appeared earlier today on ETF Profits.
Though news on U.S. jobs and corporate earnings has made headlines in recent days, the reality remains that all eyes are still on Europe, and the progress -- or lack thereof -- made by the cash-strapped continent over the next six months will make or break the fortunes of global stock markets. Like it or not (and most of us don't), we're living in a world where advisors and hedge fund managers are rising in the middle of the night to check the news from Europe. Most likely, it's going to stay that way for the foreseeable future.
There's been much talk about the weakest links in the rapidly-eroding euro chain -- the so-called PIIGS nations (Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain) that seemingly hold the fate of global financial markets in their hands. If they get their fiscal houses in order, markets could thrive. If they head for bankruptcy, it could become a worldwide financial nightmare. At the other end of the spectrum are the "bright spots" of Europe, markets that we have been led to believe are relatively immune from the woes plaguing their neighbors and positioned to come through the recent struggles relatively unscathed.
German bonds, for example, have become a safe haven in recent months, standing out as a safe place to park cash when risk aversion spikes. But I'm not sold on Germany -- or any other European market for that matter -- as a safe location in this storm. Ten-year German bonds are currently yielding just north of 2% a paltry yield that will not, realistically, even keep up with inflation. The appeal of German bonds has resulted primarily from investor disgust with the alternatives. Investors have sold off Italian and Spanish Treasuries in droves, pushing yields up to record levels. But I'm just not comfortable with the idea of investing in "the lesser of two debtors," especially when there are better alternatives available elsewhere.
Rumor has it that Wall Street is sharply divided on the outlook for German bonds, with Goldman Sachs and Credit Suisse expecting a decline, while JPMorgan and UBS expect this asset class to continue to rally. I'm in the Goldman and Credit Suisse camp because I don't see the appeal in investing in debt of a country that is both running at a pretty hefty deficit and has been unfairly tasked with shouldering the burden heaped upon it by its less fiscally responsible neighbors. That's like buying the decades old Geo Metro because it looks not-so-shabby next to the Yugo. Sometimes, it's best just to stay away.
I'm not of the belief that German bonds should be avoided at all costs, but I am convinced that the return being offered to take on the risk profile is way out-of-whack; Germany is strong next to the fiscal weaklings of Europe, but it's far from a risk-free investment.
For those looking to diversify their fixed-income portfolios, I'd recommend trying some other, more fiscally stable destinations. Australian and New Zealand bonds, accessible through WisdomTree Australia & NZ Debt (AUNZ), are appealing. Those debt securities offer a more attractive yield that is backed by stronger currencies and markets that feature less credit risk. AUNZ currently has a 30-day SEC yield of about 3.7%.
Another nice choice is Chinese bonds; the Dim Sum market is a place to get some reasonable yields with little downside currency risk, credit risk or interest rate risk. PowerShares Chinese Yuan Dim Sum Bond (DSUM) and Guggenheim Yuan Bond (RMB) both offer interesting opportunities in this corner of the market. Canada offers more appealing funds. The often-overlooked yet always stable economy to our north is backed by massive reserves of natural resources. PIMCO Canada Bond Index ETF (CAD), a new addition to the ETF lineup from PIMCO, represents a much more effective safe haven that funds such as PIMCO Germany Bond Index ETF (BUND) and PowerShares DB German Bund ETN (BUNL).

U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Lamar W. Davis Jr. this month moved to a "recall judge" status, meaning he will continue to work as a judge full time but opens the way for an additional judge in the 43-county Southern District of Georgia bankruptcy court.
"I'd really like to continue working, but we need a fourth judge," Davis, 65, said.
By electing recall status with two years remaining on his 14-year appointment, Davis will be able to continue working but only on a three-year term that can be renewed.
The new judge could be at work by next summer, U.S. District Chief Judge Lisa Godbey Wood said.
Notice for applicants will go out in late July or early August.
As chief judge, Wood will be part of the selection committee consisting of chief judges from districts in Georgia, Alabama and Florida who will interview candidates and recommend "finalists" to the Atlanta-based U.S. 11th Circuit Court of Appeals whose justices will make the appointment.
"I think (Davis) sets the standard for what a bankruptcy judge should be," Wood said, calling Davis "fair, even tempered, diligent and intelligent and he has a true respect for the law and his country and he's been that way for decades. So I'm glad he will continue to serve."
Davis has served on the bench for 26 years.
Meanwhile, a fourth full-time judge may be on the horizon.
The U.S. Administrative Office of Courts conducts surveys nationwide to gauge workload levels and determine new judgeships to recommend to Congress.
The last such survey was conducted in late 2010 and found the Southern District did qualify for an additional judge.
Davis said that process traditionally plays out every two years, so the next survey is anticipated late this year.
There has been a strong upward trend in filings during the 24 years he has been on the bench, Davis said.
When Davis went on the bench in 1986, total filings were 3,574 which he split with Herman Coolidge, a recall judge, for 1,787 cases each.
Last year, total filings were 9,590 or 3,196 when split among the three judges.
Sharing the load
Davis was a 39-year-old attorney when he was sworn to a 14-year term as the district's new bankruptcy judge in May 1986.
During his watch the court has grown to three full-time judges — John Dalis, now in Brunswick, who started in October 1987, and Chief Judge Susan Barrett in Augusta, who started in March 2006.
Along the way Davis has served as chief or administrative judge twice and with the help of technology has been able to conduct business more efficiently while keeping the number of court employees steady.
Public service career
One constant had been Patsy Burkhalter, a 40-year veteran of the court and Davis' judicial assistant since he went on the bench.
"He inherited me," she said. "I'm staying."
Davis was with the law firm of Miller Simpson and Tatum and doing a significant amount of bankruptcy work when then Judge Coolidge took a recall judge status in 1985.
Davis had already served a term in the Georgia General Assembly and been active in Republican politics.
"I had an interest in public service," Davis said. "It was just a good time in my career."
Looking back he has no regrets about his decision to become a judge, nor is he disappointed that he will retire in the post.
"That was my hope, for a career position to take me all the way to retirement," Davis said.
"To have been granted the privilege of serving as a judge, helping advance and preserve the integrity of the system of law, is the highest honor any lawyer can receive and its is one I would never trade for any other calling."

This is awesome! Did you know that just today more then 140 prominent conservatives sent a letter to all U.S. Republican legislators telling them that in NO way are they to deal with those democrats on that fiscal cliff thing".and telling them that there WILL be consequences if the do! From the letter: "If Republicans cave in now, when it really counts, next time you will be weaker, because your conservative base will be outraged". "Many who worked hard to elect you in the past will never lift a finger for you again." I just love it when conservatives truly stand up for America! Wow! Even Virginia Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clearance Thomas, signed it! Just like we have been saying all along".those Republicans better toe the TeaPublican line and say NO to everything".or we are going to run them right out of office come the next primary election! We TeaPublicans WILL take back America in 2014 and 2016".and we WILL take back any un-patriotic Republicans too!
Typical small mined thinking coming from our right wing Tea party nuts.. So ideology is more important than protecting the country from financial disaster? How really is that being patriotic when you don't even know the definition of patriotic? Look it up! Get off your high horse soap box and breath a long dose of reality! Your parties ideas lost the election!
Its always funny when people talk about taking something back.. what do you think you ever had that was taken from you?
We have the lowest tax rates since I cant remember when! Businesses are making record profits. Rich people are rolling in rising wealth.. What do you want to take us back too?? Higher taxes? Lower business profits? Fewer wealthy people? Is that the new Tea platform? Think before you say stupid things like take it back.. what time in history exactly do you want to take us back to? Why would we want to go backwards rather than forward in to the future? You guys make no sense at all!
They never made sense. Most tea party types are generally uneducated and just reactionary. They blame their woes on the government and never look at themselves. It's always someone else's fault and they think lower taxes are the answer to everything from global warming to same sex marriage. Most of these people make above the poverty line. They feel paranoid because they're not educated so they lash out. They should take some community college class on how government works.

FOND MEMORY CORPORATION, Fall 2011
by Tom Ridout
About the Book
Fond Memory Corporation is an art concept about our memories of those who have passed on. Much like the (fake) flowers, the foggy lens of our mind smooths out the rough edges of the departed to create fond memories of who they were. Fake ideas. Some of these photos look like real flowers but they are not.
Time burnishes even the roughest of edges (and the fakest of materials).
About the Creator
Tom is a fine art photographer, an architectural photographer and a landscape architect. He started his University education at the University of Toronto and completed his Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree at the University of Guelph in 1980. As part of his BLA program he studied for a semester abroad at the Sir John Cass School of Art in London England in a visual arts program. Through his 34 years as a landscape architect he has developed a broad understanding of both urban and natural environments. His professional experience forms the basis of his current photographic projects.

With Stanza, a tap on the left side of the screen goes to the previous page and a tap on the right to the next page. The small screen actually makes single-handed operation (using either hand) possible since your thumb wouldn't need to travel far to switch pages.
I made an extremely simple mock-up of what I'd like in a reader. Basically, I want both left and right sides to have next/previous buttons since I tend to switch hands while reading. It's not really the most ideal mock-up and I didn't include any other buttons. Also, I think I should have made the sides a little bit wider so they're easier to grasp.

You hardly had a chance to miss her, did you? Though her platinum debut, Animal, has not yet celebrated its first birthday, the First Lady of whiskey toothpaste and Glad-bag couture announced its companion followup, Cannibal, earlier this week. Less than 48 hours later, the album's first single has landed online.
She is, you may be shocked to learn, still a connoisseur of glitter and good times. "We R Who We R" follows previous party-to-the-people anthems built on the talk-singer's extra-enunciated consonants and chanty non-sequiturs ("and no you don't wanna mess with us / got Jesus on my neck-uh-lace").
As she told EW yesterday, the song's inspiration was fueled by the recent spate of gay-related teen suicides, "a celebration of any sort of quirks or eccentricities" meant to "inspire people to be themselves." (And a companion piece, perhaps, to Pink's "Raise Your Glass," released last week?).

Lacrosse Coach Accused Of Solicitation Was College Instructor
A former high school lacrosse coach accused of trying to meet a teen for sex was an instructor at Columbus State Community College, and school officials said he was teaching classes as recently as this month.
Richard A. Case, Jr. was arrested Tuesday by undercover police who posed online as a 13-year-old girl, 10TV News reported on Thursday.
Case, 34, faces charges including importuning and attempted unlawful sexual conduct with a minor. He pleaded not guilty to all charges on Wednesday.
WEB EXTRA: Letter Sent To Parents Of Lacrosse Players
A Columbus State spokesman said Case has been teaching development education courses since September 2008.
During spring quarter, Case taught three courses at main campus, including basic communication skills, 10TV News reported.
He was dismissed as head coach of the Westerville North High School girls lacrosse team last month. Parents said Wednesday they were shocked by the accusations.
"It was kind of a difficult conversation, you know, I used it as an opportunity to explain to my daughter that no matter how well you know somebody, you don't really know them," said Jeff Hurl, president of the Westerville North Lacrosse Club.
Case's career as coach of the lacrosse team lasted only two years, 10TV News reported. He was fired in May because of his coaching philosophy, Hurl said.
"It turns out when they told me it was for soliciting a minor over the Internet, I was shocked," Hurl said. "Absolutely shocked and disturbed."
Westerville police said Case admitted he knew the girl was underage, and admitted he had child pornography on his home computers.
Investigators seized computers and other items during a search of Case's Westerville home.
Hurl's daughter, Taylor Hurl, learned about the charges against her coach, when her dad pulled her aside.
"It was kind of a difficult conversation. I used it as an opportunity to explain to my daughter that no matter how well you know somebody, you don't really know them," Hurl said.
There were more than 30 girls on the team.
Case passed a criminal background check when he was hired by the team, 10TV News reported.
Because the lacrosse team is a club sport at the high school, the school district is not involved in paying the coaching staff or managing the program.

New Frozen Character Pics Defrost
Meet Anna and the gang...
Following on from the teaser trailer (which, possibly due to its teasery-ness, didn't feature anyone of the main cast but only sidekicks), Disney has now released info and pictures about the full character list for its new 'toon Frozen. Take a look at the gallery below.
Frozen focuses on sisters Anna (Kristen Bell) and Elsa (Idina Menzel). Elsa is blessed – or cursed, depending on how you look at it – with the power to create snow and ice. After letting her powers get out of hand, she goes into hiding, only for her emotions to trigger a magical, eternal winter that freezes the kingdom of Arendelle in eternal winter.
With people like the Duke of Weselton (Alan Tudyk) plotting to turn everyone against Elsa for his own ends, Anna must journey with heroic woodsman Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) and reindeer sidekick Sven to find Elsa and make things right.
Along the way, they'll meet the likes of comedy snowman Olaf (Josh Gad), fearsome winter beast Marshmallow, noble royal type Hans (Santino Fontana) and trader Oaken (Chris Williams).
Directed by Chris Buck and Wreck-It Ralph co-writer Jennifer Lee, Frozen is set for release on December 6.

The Friends of South-wick Country Park have been busy this summer. As well as the usual volunteer working days, they collaborated with Wiltshire Council's Rights of Way and Countryside team to run three events for children. The aim was to get more people out and about in the park and encourage children to become more aware of nature and the fun available outdoors. The events were free, thanks to a Trowbridge Area Board grant, and held in the big field in front of the Hope Nature Centre.
The first celebrated Love Parks Week and children and adults made more than 60 bird feeders to take home. The feeders were complete with bird seed provided free by Wadswick Country Store. For the second event, the Friends constructed plywood kits for flying bird mobiles. More than 100 children came to assemble and decorate them. There were very colourful birds 'flying' home with children that day.
At the third event, children could choose to make windmills, fir-cone mobiles, kites or collages. The most popular were windmills and kites.

John Bryan Conant, the university president whose reforms of the 1930s and 40s made Harvard into a premier research institution, was fond of a remark that proved useful in his line of work: "Behold the turtle," he frequently said. "He makes progress only when he sticks his neck out."
Conant's words seem particularly resonant to university leaders now. Institutions of higher learning are being challenged as never before by many forces: the tough and uncertain economic climate, profound changes in funding, and unprecedented global competition for the best and brightest students and faculty.
Success today requires universities to pursue excellence in the core functions of teaching and research, and, at the same time, to be more and to do more. Universities are being re-defined in many ways: as levers of social mobility, as engines of local economic growth, as founts of technological advances that are changing society. All this makes painfully clear that academics can't do all this by staying in our protective shells – the so-called ivory tower of academia.
To be successful, universities now need top quality academic leaders and managers – be they heads of departments, chairs of faculty, pro-vice-chancellors and even vice-chancellors. We need the leadership of the kinds of people who are willing to stick their necks out.
The University of Warwick's ascent into the top tier of UK academic institutions in less than 50 years is a prime example of why this kind of leadership is so fundamental to success. Thanks to exceptional leadership, the university – rather improbably, one could say – has managed to position itself at the forefront of academic excellence and in a frontline position on many academic trends, particularly in forging international partnerships that will prove crucial in these competitive times.
But finding these kinds of people who have the skills and desire to take on this high-wire act is exceptionally difficult. Academics by nature are people suited to working "in the laboratory" – scientific or otherwise – and delving into the intricacies of their specialty with diligence.
Therefore a university leader needs to be an academic to gain the respect of the faculty he or she leads and to fully understand at the ground level the nature of the university's core intellectual functions. At the same time, a university leader needs to be an entrepreneur, able to make the bold business decisions demanded and to seize the initiative where required.
A university leader also needs to an adroit politician – able to work effectively with policy makers and to have the acumen to manage shifting political tides. He or she also needs to be a visionary – someone who can anticipate where trends are headed and to articulate a sense of mission to the university community and the public, to inspire people on the subject of learning at the top levels.
In short, mere managers need not apply.
It comes as no surprise that finding good quality heads of department, chairs of faculty, pro-vice-chancellors and vice-chancellors is an extremely difficult task. At the same time, it has become more important than ever. Top universities will need to be led by the best. We need to find a way to breed more of the rare and seemingly endangered species, the Neck-Extending, Progress-Forging Turtles.
Abhinay Muthoo is head of the department of economics, University of Warwick

Originally written in the early 1960s, this long lost manual was put together by Joseph G. Payer, Jr., who took his experience as a scientific glassblower (or lampworker) and translated it into an easy-to-follow guide for the 'average' person with 'below-average' funds.
In the book, Mr. Payer explains how to use scrap glass commonly found in every home - bottles & jars, marbles, light bulbs & flourescent tubes - to create artistic blown glass items - vases, ornaments, and glass sculptures.
The illustrated text includes a brief history of glass, descriptions of the tools and equipment you'll need, basic glass working techniques, and how to prepare your materials for use...
as well as several artistic glass projects you can create in your own home.
Mr. Payer guides you, step-by-step, as you learn the basic skills of lampworking (also known as Scientific glassblowing) - using a propane torch and glass rods & tubes.
You don't need to build or buy expensive equipment.
You don't have to pay for pricey materials.
You can jump right in... (today, if you want)
and start learning how to create your own artistic blown glass!
Long out of print, we've updated the original text with New Information and an expanded list of Resources, and now offer this book as a convenient, downloadable PDF format eBook that you can read right on your own computer with Adobe® Reader.
44 pages. 65 illustrations.

One Last Tale
Not too many years ago there was a young man who had the world at his fingertips and he knew it. He was the eldest son of a wealthy merchant, pampered and catered to his entire life. Now, this was not an evil young man, not really, but he was a generally selfish and uncaring lad, blind to the needs of others in favor of his own comfort.
He was set to marry the daughter of an influential farmer, a sweet and pretty young thing, but that did not stop him from chasing the skirts of any maiden who wandered too close to his snatching hands. He knew being the eldest meant he would inherit his father's lands and stores, and by rights of marriage he would be given plenty of farming land to call his own—all in all, the life laid out for him was such an easy one he never thought to learn how to live it. He dictated servants to complete his chores in secret, swindled tutors into completing assignments for him, and honed no skills but the one of his silvered lying tongue.
Like most of his peers the young man wiled away his youth gambling, drinking, and whoring. He never learned to fight with his fists, always able to talk his way out of this brawl or that. Often when he finished courting Lady Luck he would seek out some unlucky lady; he would charm her with a pretty word or two and after a passionate tumble would steal away before she could wake in the morning, leaving behind nothing more than a wistful memory and a false name (and surely more than one little bastard, but that was never really his problem, now was it). One such night, after sneaking from the bedroom of a lovely girl from the next town over, the youth lost his way in the woods, his mind full of his latest lover's cherry lips and ample bosom rather than the dark and twisted trees before him.
Now, this thick headed young man was not completely without sense and knew if he found the river he could follow it to his home. Deeper into the woods he ventured, giving no heed to the darkness that blanketed his path seeming to almost choke the moonlight from his eyes. Still, this cocksure fool was unconcerned, too arrogant to be afraid of the darkness that would send any sensible person searching for a torch and the way out.
Finally, after what impossibly seemed like hours in what he was so sure was only a small forest before his lover's jaunt, he caught the scent of water logged weeds and followed it until he spied a small open lake. The area was alien to him, but he knew he didn't travel that far for his dalliance (lazy as he was), so shrugging and hoping a closer look would point him in the right direction he pushed his way through the brambles, earning himself a deep X shaped slash below his right eye.
(What? Yes, very much like the scar I have myself. In fact, quite identical.)
As he neared the water's edge he finally became aware of a prickling down his spine, a chill in his bones…and a golden voice singing the most beautiful song he ever heard. Seated on a mossy log with her toes dipped in the water was a young woman with long honey hair and wide innocent eyes. She paused in her tune and trembled as the young man approached her, obviously lost in the woods herself. The young man thought himself lucky that he could be her hero, and imagined what tasty rewards she would so gratefully yield to him when he brought them both out of the woods.
He smiled and slowly approached, hands open to show no weapons and no ill intents (that she could see anyway). "Hello, are you lost as well? I was bringing my dear old granny some dinner and seem to have lost my way. May I sit with you?" The young woman nodded and smiled shyly. "I hope I didn't frighten you," he went on, "but I heard your singing and I just had to see what kind of a creature possessed such a lovely voice." His words oozed tenderness and affection, his smile radiated a wholesomeness he no longer possessed. He sat on the log, far enough to seem unthreatening, but close enough to encourage her to lean into him once his words had worked their magic. "What's your name?" he inquired, a pseudonym on his own lips in case she asked for the same. She smiled again, and shook her head softly.
Ah. Strangers in the dark, then—this was turning out to be a fortuitous night for our rake.
The young man began to unleash his silver tongue of compliments and false tales of home; his made up ailing father and mother, his simple minded but sweet hearted brother and crippled sister—all dependent on him, of course. He spoke of all the chores he had to do to keep everyone healthy and happy as could be, all the backbreaking hard work he endured, all the woman he bedded while his virtuous fiancée waited for him in her own home, all the times he cheated at cards and swindled poorer men from their hard earned money.
The young man shook his head and laughed—he tried to tell the young woman he was mixed up from spending the night telling his granny fantastic tales of heroes past, but instead of his pretty lies only more ugly truths continued to fall from his lips.
The time he pissed in his father's ale for selling a dog he liked; the time he dared his youngest sister to climb the highest tree so she broke her collarbone when she fell and blamed it on one of the unfortunate servant boys; the time when he made little Johnny—
He clapped his hands over his treacherous mouth and stared at the being in front of him, realizing far too late that this was no mortal woman. She smiled wider and wider until the man was sure she was going to rip through his throat with her glittering teeth. The young man was frozen, staring into the face of his doom and cursing his weak willed mind for suddenly up and forgetting every last prayer he ever lazily memorized at church.
A quiet polite cough from behind him was enough of a shock in the face of certain death that he, foolish foolish thing, tore his eyes from the woman in front of him and whipped around to see another fairy creature, this one a petite horned woman, lounging against the trunk of an old oak tree.
(Of course it was Rue, clever clogs, who else would dare enter my story right now?)
"Karina," the horned lady addressed the creature next to the young man, "I want this one, thank you."
The Rusalka, for the man finally could see the being for what it was, objected to having her prey taken from her. "But my Lady," she whined "he is mine by your rights! I didn't magic him here, I didn't do anything but sit and sing and he came to me with lies and impure intentions."
The fairy stared hard at the Rusalka for a moment, then stood up. And up. And UP, until she seemed to tower among the very tree tops herself—looking impossibly taller than she had just a moment ago nestled among the great tree roots. "I never said you did anything wrong, I never said you were in trouble, I only said I wanted him. And if I want him, I will take him, and you will thank me for it."
The Rusalka stared defiantly at the fairy before her, obviously torn between keeping her prize and obeying the imposing figure. Well she must have hesitated just a moment too long as the horned fairy, in turn, answered the Rusalka's stare with a tight smile and snapped her fingers. The young man backed away horrified as he watched the beautiful young woman in front of him twist and contort and fade before his eyes. The lovely creature was no longer there, before him now was the ghost of a woman formed of water and weeds, looking ashamed and frightened.
The water spirit sadly reached a hand out to the young man, who recoiled in horror, then turned to the horned fairy ( who was now just barely as tall as he) and bowed low before diving into the black waters, disappearing into the night.
"Well. That was stupid of her." The young fairy turned a fanged grin to the young man "Are you stupid, too?"
The young man fell to his knees to say he most certainly was not stupid, but found instead his traitor tongue wailing that he was the most foolish, the most thoughtless rascal, the worst scum to walk Oerth, a shame to the name his father bestowed on him, and a pestilence to his beloved. The youth slammed his mouth shut with a click that nearly lacerated half his tongue and felt his cheeks flame with shame as the fairy laughed at his pained expression. "Get up, and go sit on that log," was her command and the youth hurried to obey. "You will not move an inch until I come back, I will know if you do." With that she vanished.
The man sat on that chilly log, half of his instincts screaming at him to spring up and run far from the lake, the other half keeping him firmly rooted to the spot because where could he run to for safety? After what seemed an age and a day the fairy popped back in front of him, munching on a shiny red apple. "Your sweetheart has a very nice orchard," her words were muffled by the juicy fruit, "shame you'll never get to see it again."
The man, oh the fool the fool, sprang up and wildly began to threaten the fairy—if she hurt one hair on his sweetheart's fair head he would—
"Ha! Would do what?" the fairy taunted him, staring him down as she took another bite of her apple. "You have no iron, and don't think your pretty lies work on me. Besides, why would I hurt her—she didn't do anything wrong." The youth's head spun. But, then , why would he never see her again?
"Because you're awful." The fairy continued to eat while the youth looked at her in puzzlement. "What?" she asked his confusion, "You think you can just toy with anyone you wish and get away with it? You had one chance, why should you get two? There is a very nice carpenter who has loved her from afar, his trade is growing and I made sure she and her family noticed it. He's very sweet, I like him. He'll make a much better husband and father than you ever will." The fairy chucked her finished core into the woods, "I'm sure you thought you would settle down once you wed, but we both know you would start up your old ways soon enough. I've seen plenty like you, but you're at least not completely hopeless. Would you like to belong to me, instead?"
"Yes, my Lady, " the youth answered before he could think, surprised at the offer and beyond thankful to escape a treacherous end this night.
The fairy smiled, "You'll do my bidding and serve me as I please?"
"Yes, my Lady," the young man answered again, feeling himself puff up with pride if such an important creature wanted him for her own. He had heard tales of what fairies wanted from mortals, and truthfully could think of worse ways to spend his life. In fact, even if she grew tired of him in decades and discarded him back to this realm he would still have his youth and charm.
The smile grew wider, and fangs glinted in the moonlight, "So you are mine now?"
"Yes, my Lady," he answer a third and final time, sealing his fate. If only he had the sense of the blacksmith but his thoughts were clouded with imagined luxuries he knew would shame the ones he found in his father's house.
"Good. Now go away and tell everyone you meet what happened tonight." The fairy turned as if to walk away.
"I…what? I don't understand."
"Go. Away. And. Tell. Everyone. About. This. Night." The fairy spoke slowly and loudly, while gesturing, as if speaking to a particularly dense child. "Whatever else would I want you for?"
"Well…" the embarrassed youth trailed off as the fairy erupted into peals of laughter.
"What? You thought I'd take you on as a lover and play thing? I doubt very much my husband would allow you two steps through the door! True I want you for your silvery tongue, but not for pillow talk! Go and tell this story and when I give you more tales tell them far and wide."
"But, why, my Lady?" The youth sagged, the puffed up peacock reduced to a lowly cockerel, and resigned himself to his fate; he knew for once there was no getting himself out of the mess he had created.
A hardened look came over the fairy's face, and just briefly the youth considered biting off his own tongue to save him from more trouble. "Because I said so. Now go." With those final words the fairy vanished and left the youth alone in the night. She was not wholly unkind—he found next to him a large rucksack filled with provisions and some money, enough to get him from one inn to the next (although as he never cared to budget before he was ignorant to just how generous she was).
The youth followed the river upstream and before he knew it he was out of the dark woods and in the bright morning light, striding across the green common of a village he had never seen before. He wandered to the nearest inn and bought himself breakfast where the barkeeper noticed his thoughtful silence and asked him about his troubles. Before he could stop himself the events from last evening came pouring out of him, and soon enough he had a sizable audience coaxing him to tell more. Well, the youth was surprised to hear himself tell story after story of the Fairy Queen he met the previous night, until finally the last words faded and he admitted that was all he knew. More than a few kind souls placed coins next to his plate, and more so offered to pay for his room for the coming evening if he could think up anything more by then.
And so the feckless young man finally learned to keep his word, and traveled near and far to spread tales of Rue and other such sagas he picked up along the way.
And that, I am sad to say my friends, is the end for the fire is gone and my tongue is as empty of adventures as my cup is of wine. Oh, don't cry my little ones—just keep one ear to the winds because you never know when I'll blow into town again with a new tale to tell.

This particular award winner is the MC5 from Monte Carlo Yachts, a very smart range of craft distributed in Australia by Melbourne dealership Sundance Marine.
The company produces two ranges of luxury vessels, its larger breed marketed as Motor Yachts, the smaller, of which the MC5 is one, as Powerboats.
With an overall length of 15.2-metres (49'10'), the MC5 presents perfectly in the 'mid-size range'.
Sundance Marine's David Beck rated the level of comfort and quality aboard the MC5 as 'unprecedented' for a boat of its size.
'It benefits greatly from French and Italian influences which have come together to produce an exceptionally good-looing and sleek performing vessel,' he said.
The manufacturers claim the MC5 is the end result of complex development with a range of innovative ideas from highly experienced boat builders.
Each vessel carrying the MC 'moniker' is remarkably similar, size being the primary difference.
The three MC vessels, MC 4, 5 and 6 are all offered in either hard top or flying bridge designs; it will be a flybridge boat head lining the marquee's introduction to the Sydney International Boat Show.
With lavish master and guest staterooms, spacious and luxurious salon, well-equipped galley and stunning examples of clever design throughout, the MC5 seems destined to make quite an impression.
A 'healthy' beam of 4.29-metres (12' 1') allows for excellent stability and has assisted the designers create a very roomy vessel.
It carries two 650-litre fuel tanks to 'feed' the dual Volvo IPS 600 engines and dual 330-litre water tanks.
Definitely a class act from every angle.
For additional information on the Monte Carlo range, contact Sundance Marine, Melbourne, telephone 1300 550 089.
The Sydney International Boat Show will trade 10am to 6pm at Cockle Bay Marina, Darling Harbour and 10am to 8pm at the Sydney Exhibition Centre at Glebe Island.

Chatting with Christiansen
Flames Audio:
Nick Pierce of the Liberty Flames Sports Network recently caught up with Liberty senior Jacy Christiansen, on the heels of her impressive showing at the ISU Pre-National Invitational.
Christiansen placed 11th in the women's 6K white race at the ISU Pre-National Invitational, Saturday in Terre Haute, Ind., marking the highest placement ever by a Lady Flame at the meet. Her time was a season-best 21:57.4 despite the soggy racing conditions.
Christiansen and her teammates will now turn their attention to the 2014 Big South Men's and Women's Cross Country Championships, to be contested Nov. 1 on Gardner-Webb's campus in Boiling Springs, N.C. The women's 5K will begin at 10:30 a.m., followed by the men's 8K at 11:30. The Liberty men's squad will aim for its unprecedented 10th consecutive Big South team title, while the Lady Flames will chase their fourth conference championship in the last six years.
Christiansen could also contend for the women's individual title next weekend. The New Hampshire native is a two-time All-Big South performer in cross country, placing eighth in 2012 and third a year ago.

California Vehicle Code 23103 describes reckless driving as "wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property" while driving a vehicle upon a public road, highway, or offstreet parking facility.
Reckless driving may be observed as a variety of different actions taken by a driver and a combined lack of care of the driver which inhibits his ability to practice safe driving in accordance with the law. For instance, if a driver decides to go through a drive-thru and eat a hamburger while driving, doing so may require the driver to remove one hand from the wheel to hold the burger. Focusing on eating the burger, he may have less attention on the road and could begin to swerve. He then may be unable to stabilize the vehicle because he cannot grasp the wheel with both hands. If a police officer were present to observe the apparent lack of control of this vehicle, he may issue an offense.
The reckless driving offense is punished by imprisonment in a county jail for any amount of time between five and 90 days, or a fine between $145 and $1,000 depending on the specific situation. The punishment could also combine both imprisonment and a fine.
Like the hungry driver mentioned above, many drivers like to multi-task while operating a vehicle. Nowadays, people notoriously search for and change CDs, talk on cell phones, text with cell phones, and do other irresponsible actions while driving. Not all of these actions will be punished as reckless driving, but could cause a situation where the driver is seen as showing disregard for others on the road and creating a hazard. If these actions are observed by an officer of the law, a reckless driving,or other offense may be issued.
Other reckless driving offenses may be more deliberate on the part of the driver. Any combination of exceeding the speed limit, quickly changing lanes, tailgating other drivers, driving off the road or in opposing traffic, racing and playing dangerous games while driving, etc., may cause the driver to incur a reckless driving offense, as well as other sorts of offenses.
Drivers should remember to consider whether, at all times while driving, they feel as though they have complete control of the vehicle. If at any moment the answer might be "no", it is the drivers responsibility to correct his or her actions or stop driving.

EMS personnel would have to triage patients and make the decision on their level of acuity. Do they have the training to do this? Will there be legal actions if their reasoning is faulty? If a patient doesn't need to go to an ED, do they really need to be transported by an ambulance or would a cab suffice?.
Emergency MD
RMB below has made good points. I doubt that any EMS system will change any transport protocols unless they can be guaranteed freedom from legal liability from patients who feel "mis-triaged". I would postulate that such immunity would never be granted. Most people who arrive to the ED by ambulance could very well have come in a private car or taxi. A large proportion of the people who arrive in our ED by ambulance are discharged to home with no special treatment. At discharge, the question they ask me is "how am I expected to get home?".
John Leboube
Emergency MD, you forgot the patient asking for a voucher for their ride home..
This is SO right. BUT there could be complications related to private insurance restrictions. My 21 y/o daughter experienced severe pain in her chest, heavy pressure, and inability to breathe well. "FELT AS THO SHE WAS DYING" It eventually eased, and she was released. Went to Family DR. next day who could find nothing. The symptoms returned the next night, "again she felt like she was dying." After half the night, it eased and she was released. She thought she had insurance that would cover most of the costs. THEN she recv'd $5K+ bill for 2 ER visits. Ins K had "hidden" clause that it would not pay for ER unless checked in overnight. NOW, she has ACA policy, 1/2 price, and covers ER. Still has $5K bill..

The only product that has worked so far
By High expectation shopper
from Toronto, Ontario
We have tried to grow grass in 2 difficult places, under a tree and at the top of a hill for years with no success. We were about to give up, but decided to try the Grassblast. We used it for the first time last year, and the results were great. The roots were strong and the grass was thick. We followed the directions that pertain to application amounts, as well as applying at 3 different points in the season. This spring, we can't believe the shape of our grass. It is thick and green. We just got our shipment for this season. The only downside is it does have a bit of an odour, but then again, so does manure and other fertilizers. Have recommended this to our gardening circle.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Worked great
By Jo
from MILTON
My front lawn did take a beating this winter, the existing grass was black and I did not think it would grow back this summer. I did spread some cheap grass seed with this product and some soil. Well, all the neighbours have commented on how well the grass looks. All the new growth is thick and green. The weeds are much less as the new grass is filling in everywhere. I am going to apply again later in the season. Worth the effort.

Peru's disgraced former president, Alberto Fujimori, has shrugged off Interpol's notice for his arrest on murder and kidnapping charges, insists he is innocent and promises that he will someday return home to Peru.
Fujimori made the comments — his first since Interpol put him on its wanted list last week — in an interview Friday.
The former president personally delivered a video to AP that he said would be shown to his supporters at a meeting Saturday evening in the Peruvian Andes town of Huancayo. The half-hour video, which shows him speaking, was shot earlier Friday, he said.
Smiling often and looking relaxed in a dapper gray suit, Fujimori said the life of exile he has led in Japan since November 2000 has not changed after Interpol demanded his extradition to Peru.
"All these are accusations against me," he said, referring to charges of illicit accounts, murder and misdirected funds. "Where are the billions?"
Fujimori, 64, fled from a corruption scandal in Peru and has become a celebrity in Japan, where some are enamored with the idea of a man of Japanese ancestry reaching political heights abroad.
As president, he gave Peru's army sweeping powers in a successful campaign against Maoist guerrillas. He faces murder charges in Peru for allegedly authorizing massacres of suspected rebel sympathizers in the 1990s.
Japan has refused to extradite Fujimori or act on the Interpol request because he has Japanese citizenship and Tokyo has no extradition treaty with Peru.
"My intention to return remains strong," Fujimori said. But he added: "I don't know when."
Fujimori has been doing the rounds on the lecture circuit and is a favorite among conservative Japanese politicians.
He proudly showed his video, describing it as "a call to my supporters" and a pledge to return and resume his career in Peruvian politics.
"Did they find bars of gold? No. Did they find accounts, companies, stocks in any part of the world? No," he shouts in the video.
"Did I divert and improperly invest funds instead of constructing highways, schools and medical centers? No. Am I guilty of human rights violations and genocide? No."
Earlier this month, Peruvian politicians approved embezzlement and illegal-enrichment charges against Fujimori.
Carlos Raffo, a former press adviser who is promoting Fujimori's bid in the 2006 presidential elections, told the AP Lima bureau on Thursday that Saturday's video appearance will be the start of a campaign "with a view to the 2006 elections."

Washington fruit grower-shipper Chelan Fresh Marketing has created a free online resource for dietitians.
Chelan-based Chelan Fresh's digital "toolkit" provides dietitians with regularly updated information on the company's fresh apples, cherries and pears, according to a Chelan Fresh news release.
The idea for the toolkit came from a tour of Chelan Fresh by registered dietitians in July, and from the company's sponsorship of a Produce for Better Health session for nutrition experts at the Produce Marketing Association's Fresh Summit show in New Orleans in October.
"RDs are gaining influence in buying decisions for both retail produce managers and for consumers," Chelan Fresh marketing coordinator Kathryn Grandy said in the release. "Our RD toolkit, which is all-digital and print-friendly, is a very fun and Pinterest-like, with sections for each commodity."
The toolkit, Grandy said, cites current studies and provides tips for each fruit, sharing ideas about how to use them, how to clean them and how to prepare them in recipes.
RDs can register for the toolkit at chelanfreshtoolkit.com.

Kathleen Battle
Tonight @ the Pabst Theater - 7:30 PM
Mar. 25, 2008
Soprano Kathleen Battle earned great critical acclaim for her high voice and impeccable timbre, but became equally notorious for her erratic behavior. In 1994, she was terminated from the Metropolitan Opera, reportedly because of her demanding personality. She hasn't performed in an opera since. Instead, she's continued recording and touring as a solo act, and tonight she appears—on her own terms—at the Pabst Theater for a 7:30 p.m. show.

So impressive! Lovely logo material there!
It would be pretty cool if he got voted in, and I think on the basis of his actual play he deserves it. But I'm sure someone with neater stats will get in.
And pelicans are awesome, why are we even debating this.
Luck will get the fan vote, but he doesn't deserve them. He shouldn't be all pro this year. Shaub or Ben will get in.
Btw, not sure if someone mentioned this or not but he should get in anyways, there is like a 95% chance in my eyes that either the Broncos or the Pats will be in the superbowl and he would be the first alternate, hell he may even be the starter depending on who actually plays.
P.S. Kid Minneapolis what colts side do you frequent? you should checkout www.coltsauthority.com, it is pretty good, and you don't have to listen to the BS Brad Wells puts out all the time either.
To be honest, this is sort of my main Colts forum.... I've been looking for a good Colts-centric site for damn near a decade. Colts.com has some juveniles... Coltclique.com invited me and they were just too rude and crude for my tastes. I've been to 3-4 other sites and they just weren't cutting it for me.
I'm trying to find a good Colts forum that has the level of education and professionalism that Pacers Digest has. S'why I sorta gave up and just start posting in this "side forum of a Pacers site". Honestly if Pacers Digest just expanded and became "Indiana Sports Digest", with an equal focus on Pacers, Colts, and all the colleges, I'd be like :cloud9:.
I'll check out Colts Authority.
Simmons on Luck:
Meanwhile, here's the best thing you could say about Luck's rookie season: We're watching the greatest Colt ever (and one of the greatest QBs of all time) submitting one of the greatest comeback seasons in sports history and single-handedly willing another franchise into becoming a Super Bowl contender … and the Colts fans don't give a ****! NONE OF THEM CARE! How many NFL rookies could have pulled that off? Marino in '84, Luck in '12, Griffin in '12 … and we're done.
I don't see Andrew going to the pro bowl. Yes he has had a great year especially since he was a rookie that looked like a 4 year veteran with his knowledge of the system and his ability to stay focused under pressure. Next year might be a different story if he keeps progressing and we surround him with a better supporting cast.

Major Requirements
Core Courses
Students entering the geology major take the following courses to meet minimum department requirements for graduation with the Bachelor of Science degree in geology:
|103. The Dynamic Earth OR
|110. Environmental Geology AND
|115. Oceanography
|104. The Evolving Earth
|203. Mineralogy
|206. Invertebrate Paleontology
|211. Geomorphology
|216. Sedimentology
|302. Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology
|350. Structural Geology
|+ one elective at the 200-level or greater
Required Cognates
All majors (geology and Geology-Environmental Studies-Geology) are required to take a least one semester of the following courses: 1) chemistry (CHEM 103); 2) calculus (MATH 135); and 3) either physics (PHYS 151) or biology (BIOL 101). It is highly recommended that the two-semester sequence of each be completed.
None of these required core courses will be accepted toward the major if taken pass/fail. Normally, 200-level courses are appropriate for sophomores, 300-level for juniors and 400-level for seniors. Attendance at department seminars is required of all majors.
Minor Requirements
Students with a general interest and who wish to have a basic understanding of the Earth and its processes, or who have a strong interest in a particular aspect of geology or earth science teaching and want to learn more about the subject, may minor in geology. There are several areas of potential concentration within geology, and the geology minor is designed so that it may serve the needs of the widest range of students. A minor in geology can expand a student's background in support of a major in an allied science, environmental studies or economics, or in a major supporting interest in archaeology, photographic arts or global studies.
The minor can be designed to reflect general geology, or the courses may be grouped to focus on the history of life, surficial geology, bedrock geology, or environmental geology. A combination of the student's own choosing, in consultation with the faculty, is encouraged. Several electives are available as options.
Geology 103, 104 and at least four additional courses at the 200 level or above are required in all cases.
For a list of all courses and descriptions go to the University catalog.
