text: Mining causing widespread water damage, judge told By Ken Ward Jr. May 8, 2012 Story Share HUNTINGTON, W.Va. -- Mountaintop removal mines like the Highland Reylas operation proposed by Alpha Natural Resources are causing widespread water quality damage across the Appalachian coalfields, a federal judge was told Tuesday.Emily Bernhardt, a Duke University aquatic ecologist, detailed what she said are the conclusions of numerous scientific studies about mountaintop removal's impacts on the region's important headwater streams."It's an enormous change in the chemistry of streams compared to what we see before mining," Bernhardt told U.S. District Judge Robert C. Chambers.Bernhardt said the science is clear that mountaintop removal not only buries streams with valley fill waste piles, but also sends harmful levels of various pollution runoff into stream reaches beyond those fills.Testifying as an expert witness for citizen groups, Bernhardt said the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ignored this science when it approved Alpha's Clean Water Act permit for the 635-acre Highland Reylas Surface Mine near Ethel in Logan County.Alpha hopes to employ about 100 people for six years of mining, and then create a 235-acre site with paved roads and utilities that could be used for temporary housing during flooding and other emergencies. The mine, though, would bury about 2.5 miles of streams beneath a valley fill and associated runoff-control structures.The Ohio Valley Environmental Coalition and other citizen groups argue that the mine would add to existing pollution problems in the Dingess Run watershed, and that the corps did not allow public input on the company's proposal to mitigate mining damage.Citizen group lawyers Joe Lovett and Jim Hecker want Chambers to block the Alpha permit and force the corps to conduct a more detailed study, called an Environmental Impact Statement, or EIS, before deciding if the project should go forward. Late last week, Chambers refused to allow the citizens to challenge the Alpha mitigation plan, agreeing with the company that a federal appeals court ruling leaves that issue solely up to the Corps of Engineers.Lawyers for Alpha and the Obama administration argue that same appeals court ruling severely limits what sort of evidence Chambers should consider and greatly ties the judge's hands in overruling any decisions the corps makes about mining permits.C.J. Morris, a lawyer for the corps, has argued that citizen groups should not be able to produce new evidence, and should instead be forced to argue only over the documents the agency included in its formal permit record.Alpha lawyer Bob McLusky complained citizen groups are inappropriately suing over the corps permit as a backdoor way to challenge decisions made by the state in the company's surface mining and water discharge permit.Chambers has not fully weighed in on those issues yet. But at Alpha's request, Chambers did block an effort by citizen groups to argue that the mine would add to existing public health problems recent scientific papers have linked to living near mountaintop-removal mining. The judge rejected an effort by Alpha to block University of Maryland biologist Margaret Palmer, a top researcher on mining-related water quality issues, from testifying.While the Obama administration's crackdown on mountaintop removal slowed the issuance of new strip-mining permits across Appalachia, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has given its blessing to some corps-issued Clean Water Act "dredge-and-fill" permits and not stepped in to block others, such as the one for Highland Reylas. During Tuesday's opening day of an expected weeklong trial, University of Tennessee hydro-geologist John Tyner explained what he said were major weaknesses in the way corps officials considered the Alpha mine's potential to create selenium runoff that could be toxic to aquatic life downstream.Tyner said the corps allowed Alpha to rely on one set of coal-seam samples that predicted no selenium runoff, despite the fact that readily available data indicates the mine site would likely generate selenium."I believe that's an improper extrapolation," Tyner said. "It's worse than useless. I think it's misleading."Citizen groups also argue that the corps wrongly concluded other Alpha mines in the area have not caused selenium problems, noting that streams in those areas already have high levels of the toxic pollutant.Bernhardt walked Chambers through a list of previous scientific papers that have shown impaired aquatic life -- measured through reduced diversity of insects -- downstream from mining and valley fill sites. Bernhardt said studies have clearly shown this impairment related to high levels of electrical conductivity, caused by sulfates and other mining pollutants."The weight of the evidence is very strong," Bernhardt said. Lovett asked if any peer-reviewed scientific papers have been published that contradict this conclusion. "Not that I'm aware of," Bernhardt said.Bernhardt said that, in approving the Alpha permit, corps officials mentioned only one scientific paper about mining damage, a major U.S. Environmental Protection Agency study by agency biologist Greg Pond.Corps officials cited that paper only to note that Alpha disagreed with Pond's conclusions, but Bernhardt said the agency cited no peer-reviewed research that supported Alpha's contention.Lovett asked Bernhardt if the corps could have found a peer-reviewed paper that supported the company's argument. "Not that I'm aware of," Bernhardt replied.Reach Ken Ward Jr. at email@example.com or 304-348-1702.

Just when we were least expecting it, here is the "Poiret: King of Fashion" Costume Institute Gala at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which just happens to be the most celeb-packed red carpet we've seen since The Oscars. Seriously, how did all these folks get to NYC so quickly? Here are some of the ladies, but check out the gallery below to get the full splendor. In general, the women looked smashing on the arms of their dates (if they had one) -- be they boyfriends, husbands, or esteemed older gentlemen/designers (like Ashley Olsen on the arm of Christian Louboutin himself). Anna Wintour must have been a happy hostess.
I must say that I am especially proud of my Olsens. Ashley looks hot hot hot, but MK is holding her own, too. On the other side of the spectrum, Kirsten and Kate Bosworth apparently got the wrong memo and thought it was an actual costume party. Also, is Jennifer Garner 39 feet tall? Who knew! Finally, Jessica Simpson is a little overtly sexy for my taste, but oh well. Oh, to be a fly on the wall of this party! What do you think of all the ladies fabulous looks? Vote Here

Research topics available for this degree:
There are several research topics available for this degree. See below for full details of individual research areas including an outline of the topics, the supervisor, funding information and eligibility criteria.
|Research title
Archives in Art Practice; Diagrams in Art Practice; Drawing and the Delineation of Animals; Drawing Animal Traces
Archives in Art Practice: This research project takes as its starting point an artistic engagement with one or more archive collections. The identification of the collection/s to work with, will depend on the researcher�s own areas of interest and the agreement of the library or institution that manages the archive. The aim of the research is to test new artistic approaches to exploring and reactivating historical material that is preserved in storage. For example, the researcher might work with archival photographs, objects, letters or manuscripts to develop their own responses through art practice. The formal modes of access to such material is a factor in this research. The extent to which historical narratives are revealed through the resulting artworks is a topic to be investigated, as is the extent to which the historical material becomes an inspiration for new works that have only a tangential connection with the archival sources. This may raise questions of historicity, agency, affect and ethics. The anticipated outcome is a body of artworks with accompanying evaluation and contextualisation of the research process.
Diagrams in Art Practice: A topic for artistic research is the role of diagramming within art practice. Although this has been studied art historically in relation to particular artists or movements (such as process-based, performance or conceptual art), this research project would be an opportunity for investigation through practice, by an art practitioner. The research would be conducted using artistic strategies and propositions to test the potential of two-dimensional plans, projections, maps, schematic notations and other types of diagram. A diagram may precede, follow or substitute for other artworks. It may be the only visible outcome of an artistic process, or an end in itself. However, it could be argued that it cannot exist in isolation. By referring to ideas, bodies, objects, actions and directions beyond its surface, the diagram visualises a set of relationships. The research would question the capacity of diagrams to move, provoke, influence or shift these relationships. It is likely to raise questions about dimension, surface, space, speculative thinking, provisional forms and performativity. It may draw on New Materialism as a body of thought that emphasises the agency of materials. The thesis is expected to consist of a documented process of artistic research, with accompanying evaluation and contextualisation.
Drawing and the Delineation of Animals: An area for artistic enquiry is the role of drawing practices in human/animal distinctions. In recent years, increasing research in the humanities and social sciences has taken a critical position toward determinations of �human� and �animal� as mutually exclusive categories, in which the former is positioned as superior, based on anthropocentric criteria. While there has been attention to text, film and photography in this regard, there has been little consideration of the way in which drawing practices, specifically, have worked to either re-inscribe or disrupt human/animal distinctions. This project would be conducted using art practice methods and artistic strategies to revisit modes of drawing, which historically have had a role in defining animals within particular systems of knowledge. For example, the starting point could be scientific taxonomic illustration, bestiaries, narrative drawings, mythological drawings or diagrams that partition the space for animals. It is expected that from this starting point the project will develop both critically and creatively to re-imagine creaturely life and work with notions of hybridity, contagion, elusiveness, or blurring of forms and categories. The anticipated outcome is a body of artworks with accompanying evaluation and contextualisation of the research process.
Drawing Animal Traces: This research project is an investigation of drawing as a trace of bodily movement or mark of presence and identification. The research would be conducted by means of the researcher�s own art practice, using drawing as one of the methods. A starting point for this research is to consider drawing as an animal practice, avoiding human-centred definitions. Drawing would be viewed within the context of intentional marks or visible traces of movement. For example, traces could include tracks, footprints and scratches. Marks could include territorial markers (visual, auditory, olfactory), rubbings and droppings. Terms that could be significant within the project are motility, gesture and form. It is anticipated that the research may raise questions of semiotics, particularly the indexical and iconic meanings of animal marks and traces. The researcher�s artistic enquiry could engage with forensics, digital tracking devices, photography and mapping in order to log, follow and track other animals. Likewise, the researcher�s own marks and traces might be considered as a signifying residue of transit or marking of territory, but also positioned and inspected critically within a contemporary art and research context. The anticipated outcome is a body of artworks and documented artistic process, with accompanying evaluation and contextualisation.

Art and Design Education; Advanced and Functional Textiles; Creative pattern cutting and anthropometrics; Knitting and knitwear Design
ICE and Honeypot are two projects based in the school of Art, Design and Architecture which are funded through the Royal Academy of Engineering visiting professor scheme. They act as a catalyst to networking across the different departments and schools across the University of Huddersfield. Illustrating that design is the interface for many disciplines. The students are very passionate when working together and the interdisciplinary nature of the project enables a toolkit of skills to be developed beyond the traditional discipline. The project has been recognised as a model of good practice and has a number of published case-studies acting as a blue print for embedding interdisciplinarity in the Higher Education sector.
The �Innovation Creative Exchange� (ICE) at the University of Huddersfield provides a successful structure for embedding enterprise education through interdisciplinary industry collaborations. ICE provides a dynamic and unique environment outside the traditional curriculum for undergraduate students to work on industry led challenges which crosses discipline boundaries. It introduces disruptive parameters to impact on learning, placing students in a time controlled environment, challenging students both creatively and technically in a competitive environment, thus developing essential entrepreneurial skills. The Honeypot builds on the notion of a �trap� in which all forms of ideas can be brought together, dismissed or debated in both a physical and on-line environment. The presentation focuses around the success and challenges of designing and implementing this platform for innovation and its subsequent impact. Dr Power is Academic Lead for both projects.
Dr Power has been involved in, and managed a variety of internally and externally funded research projects in the areas of technical textiles, performance clothing, anthropometrics, knitwear sizing and pedagogical evaluation. The University has state of the art textile manufacturing and apparel production equipment which extend beyond fashion into apparel and functional clothing. Dr Power has authored a number of publications in this area. Including investigation of high performance clothing, specifically focusing on the objective measurement and subjective assessment of advanced textile materials. Dr Power is a management member of the University of Huddersfield Institute of Skin integrity and infection projection, which aims to promote a fully integrated, complete and coordinated, applied science to clinical practice, ethos; including investigation into the function of the skin as a barrier against medications, wound dressings and antimicrobials, design and development, clinical evaluation of products and devices and exploration of quality of life indictors for patients and their significant others. She is also a member of Innovative Design Lab within the School of art, Design and Architecture. Dr Power recently led an interdisciplinary team of experts in the Design of a textile device that safely and comfortably, contains the tubing inserted into the chests of youngsters during chemotherapy treatment. This was a collaboration by University of Huddersfield and a local charity and set to improve the quality-of-care for child cancer patients. Dr Power welcomes collaborations with the commercial and not-for-profit sector.
The University of Huddersfield is devoted to practice based, scholarly research in creative pattern cutting and ways in which it can be explored, much further through the intellectual relationship between theory and practice. The School of Art, Design and Architecture hosted the First and Second International Conference for Creative Pattern Cutting in 2013 and 2016. Dr Power has been involved in, and managed a variety of internally and externally funded research projects in the areas of technical textiles, performance clothing, anthropometrics, knitwear sizing and pedagogical evaluation. Her PhD research was an investigation into parameters affecting the 3-Dimensional weft knitting of high performance yarns, in particular those of a conductive nature. This lead to further research in the field of electro conductive textiles and the integration of wearable�s within clothing, otherwise known as smart/intelligent clothing. Dr Power is a specialist in the area weft knitting and has published extensively in this area. The School has state of the art textile manufacturing and apparel production equipment which extend beyond fashion into apparel, functional clothing and technical application. The University of Huddersfield hosted the Transition Conference: Re-thinking Textiles and Surfaces in 2014 and has a heritage in the textiles area. Dr Power is a member of Innovative Design lab within the School of Art, Design and Architecture and a management member of the University of Huddersfield�s Institute of Skin integrity and infection projection, which aims to promote a fully integrated, complete and coordinated, applied science to clinical practice, ethos; including investigation into the function of the skin as a barrier against medications, wound dressings and antimicrobials, design and development, clinical evaluation of products and devices and exploration of quality of life indictors for patients and their significant others.

Art and engagement; The artistic encounter; AON (The Archive of Nothingness); Intersecting practices
This began as PhD research around the artistic encounter and the notion of�affect, and through Research Excellence Framework 2014 impact case study work it developed a focus on measuring the impact and value of arts projects in the public realm. Today this research incorporates collaborative work on the�ROTOR exhibitions programme at Huddersfield Art Gallery and evaluation consultation for a Creative People and Places programme of events to explore public engagement as both concept and method; cultural citizenship; cultural leadership; and the notion of the 'civic university'. Related publications include�http://www.cambridgescholars.com/what-is-to-be-http://ijaspc.cgpublisher.com/product/pub.233/prod.110
Stemming from MA and PhD research which explores art-audience relationships and�challenging or subversive exhibition techniques which complicate this relationship, subsequent research has addressed�the relationship between expectation and interpretation; exhibitionary �disjunctions�;�artistic encounters as game-playing;�the notion of the chance encounter;�and the impact of document and media upon art�s ability to function � both practically and conceptually � within and outside of its exhibition context.�
The connections between histories of art and graphic design�and �the role, influence and �authority� of archives, archivists, exhibitions and curators. It uses the medium of�a Tumblr weblog which functions self-reflexively and critically, providing a vehicle for data collection while simultaneously as an ongoing and potentially infinite piece of �living� research (see�http://archiveofnothingness.tumblr.comhttp://archiveofnothingness.tumblr.com�and�http://www.intellectbooks.co.uk/journals/view-Article,id=19826/)
a cross-organisational project which assesses the role and impact of contemporary art sited in heritage spaces, exploring the ways in which we might capture, measure and articulate the value of these intersections and the challenges they create (see�http://www.ccsmgh.leeds.ac.uk/research/intersecting-practices-assessing-the-role-and-impact-of-contemporary-art-in-heritage-spaces).

Contemporary documentary photographic practices; Contemporary art and social agency; Photography and magic realism; Jacques Ranciere and the relationship between aesthetics and politics
My research explores the use of documentary imagery in relation to art practices that explicitly operate in social and political realms and is interested in how antagonistic socially engaged art practices are a vital force in democratic society. I am interested in the discursive qualities of photography that have been expanded through the convergence of digital imaging devices and the increased speed of data transmission that has come to be known as web 2.0. This convergence has had the function of transforming our understanding and use of photographic images from objects that could be described as factual statements, into flows of data, becoming ephemeral gestures more equivalent to speech.�The social agency of photographic practices lie within maintaining a �productive tension� created by the photograph�s paradoxical roles of documentation and the aesthetic abstraction of events or moments, that is a vital force in the use of photographs as discursive documents. One means of considering this productive tension, this paradoxical double function is through an exploration of the subversive and transgressive qualities of the literary genre, �Magical Realism.� It is the oxymoronic ambiguity of the term Magical Realism that makes it so useful in discussing photographic practice. The productive tension created by the photograph�s indexical relationship to its referent and its abstraction into imagery is equivalent to Magical Realism�s inherent inclusion of contradictory elements. Magical Realism explores the impact fiction has on reality, reality on fiction and the reader�s role in between; as such, it is well suited for drawing attention to social or political criticism.

Contemporary photography; Inter-disciplinary & practice based methodologies in art research; Appropriation in art and photography; Philosophy in art practice and research
Photography that blurs the boundaries between genres and questioning the material base and object, photography beyond the two-dimensional surface, this encompasses contemporary modes of artistic inquiry and interaction with the photograph, from the ways with which we interact with the photograph on a screen, digital manipulation, to output as a physical print. What are the boundaries of the photograph as object and how does it extend its presence beyond the two-dimensional surface of the wall? This can extend to photography as sculpture or photography as installation. These can include for example: using archives as primary research material to build or create an art project, using methodologies from visual anthropology, digital and physical collages, the uses and re-uses of imagery in visual culture. My interest lies in interrogating and questioning the legacy of the Dadaists, Duchamp, Andy Warhol and Robert Rauschenberg, looking at contemporary uses of collage and image appropriation in photography as well as enquiring into the nature of artistic production and process through the works of Henri Bergson, Giorgio Agamben and Gilles Deleuze.

Design Art; The Studio; Design Fiction; Transdisciplinarity
Design art is the dynamic interface between design and art in the production of a new hybrid art form. Examples include Richard Hamilton's homage to Dieter Rams and Olafur Eliasson's pavilions. Tate Publishing released the first book on the subject in 2005 and MIT/Whitechapel the first anthology of critical texts on it in 2007.
The studio is a space in which art and design driven work is conceived and fabricated. Most recently it has been explored in 'The Transdisciplinary Studio'.
First developed in the writings of Bruce Sterling, Design fiction is a genre of design that uses fiction as a conceptual device to explore speculative scenarios.
Transdisciplinarity refers to the ongoing melting of boundaries between disciplines, especially art, design and architecture.

Sculpture and Archives; Sculpture in Public; Sculptural Plasticities; Sculptural Thinking in Groups
Since 2009, I have exploring different approaches to archives and archival content in and through artistic research. This registers�the archive, as an important site for the generation of different narratives of sculptural thinking. Projects include the curation of an exhibition Thought Positions in Sculpture�(Huddersfield Art Gallery 2015-2016), a project�which used the exhibition environment as a platform and starting point for considering the sculptural facets of thinking activity. This project works with the themes of research-creation, concepts-in-the-making and the democracies of experience evolving out of the practices of artistic research.
I have an interest in public, social and artistic places and spaces within which sculpture and sculptural thinking may sit. This includes the specific environments and landscapes of sculpture parks and sculpture festivals. Recent projects include a symposium entitled Putting Space into Action (2016), which explored the ways in which�artistic projects, past and present, have deployed different approaches to the dynamics of activating space in art and culture.
I am currently working on several projects in and around sculptural plasticity�and�the discourses of neuroscience.�I am investigating �sculptural plasticity� as a distinct mode of thinking in art and science. This research has evolved out new materialist readings of sculptural practice. With an interest in Catherine Malabou�s work on 'plasticity' and Karen Barad�s writings on �diffraction�, I am seeking to address how plasticity, as it is formed in and through examples drawn from art, philosophy, literature and neuroscience, may provide new methodological insights into sculptural thinking. In particular, the diffractive patterns of exchange between sculptural formations of plasticity in the context of the phenomenon of the �brain-body-in-culture�: a double condition where the formations and transformations of human and non-human activity are in continuous intra-action.
As�part of the processes and practices of collective social engagement and collaboration, I am addressing the sensory-aesthetic registrations of sculptural thinking in groups and how this manifests itself in and through the choreographies of the body (performance art), the self-forming and self-fashioning of identities within group matrices (social sculpture) and the social formations of being and becoming in neuronally diverse creative spaces (community art practices). This research sits within�the�spatial, social and sensorial registers of sculptural thinking in group matrices.�

Textiles and art; Crafting communities; Rethinking creative practice in relation to public transport; Site-specificity
This research area comprises a critical engagement with a wide range of practices that draw on the daily conditions and associations of textiles as a communicator of ideas about the social, political and artistic. Traditionally an undervalued medium, textiles innate elasticity and ability to move flexibly into a range of interdisciplinary discourses are increasingly relevant and thought provoking within the contemporary world. The investigation involves the transformative potential of art and craft in facing contemporary social concerns and as a catalyst for community cohesion with ability to achieve new definitions of value and community through the depth of the research. The research process can comprise community-led models of collaboration, social engagement, crafting and volunteering within the realms of education, curatorial practice and relational art. A research area that considers the transient interconnection with others encountered during travel on public transport systems to achieve unexpected and meaningful connections with the functionality of a journey. Working partners in this research area include small-scale transport businesses, community rail networks as well as public art commissioning bodies. A methodology that is led by new research, insights and discoveries into our public and private spaces through a consideration of spatial, aesthetic, historic, geographic and conceptual concerns. This will inform interventionist practice-based approaches to site-specificity and the ability to insert creativity into the context of social, economic and environmental challenges, such as the consideration of community voice during periods of road building, the creativity and regeneration of Britain�s towns and cities and residencies engaging with rural communities.

Express-News Area Story of the Year: Edison softball coach Mary Ann Villarreal
Published 12:00 am, Sunday, June 27, 2010
For a snapshot image of Edison softball coach Mary Ann Villarreal's outlook on life, ask the radiant 49-year-old about her fight against cancer.
She has breast cancer that has spread to her lung, spine and brain, making exams, chemotherapy and radiation practically weekly events for the coach.
It's the kind of grind that could crush even the strongest of wills — making Villarreal's reaction when talking about the disease all the more unmistakable.
She smiles.
Unwilling to let cancer define her, Villarreal redefined sports toughness in leading the Golden Bears to a historical season this spring.
Sports Channel
Edison reached the third round of the Class 4A playoffs as Villarreal claimed her first District 28-4A title in nine seasons at the school.

During the Great Depression in the United States many creative workers found employment in federal government programs. Various projects of the WPA provided income for artists, musicians, actors, writers and craftsmen.
Like the popular Chautauqua presentations, the WPA projects often reached isolated areas of the country. For many rural citizens these programs introduced them to their first theater, art or symphony experience.

Wieters fine after rolling right ankle
SARASOTA, Fla. -- Orioles catcher Matt Wieters exited after rolling his right ankle in the bottom of the fourth inning during the Orioles' 6-5 loss to the Red Sox on Tuesday afternoon.
"Just precautionary," manager Buck Showalter said of the move. "He's fine. [He] went in and got some ice on it."
Wieters walked with the bases loaded to drive in a run in the fourth and moved to second on a wild pitch, suffering the ankle injury running to third on Ryan Flaherty's inning-ending groundout. With a home game Wednesday and then a pair of road games, Wieters could get a few days off just to make sure everything is fine.
Showalter said there were no plans yet for X-rays.
"[Head athletic trainer] Richie [Bancells] said during the season he would have continued to play," Showalter said. "Just wanted to get some ice on it make sure it doesn't turn into something worse."

Employers may ask you for additional information during the job application process. We'll show you examples of a reference list and a salary history. Depending on your field, you may also be asked to provide examples of your work such as writing clips, artwork, video production, web site development, computer code or other samples. Be careful that you don't use examples that are the intellectual property of a previous employer without prior permission.
We recommend bringing a reference list to job interviews in case it is requested. Preparing this list is very simple. You'll want to list the name, title, and contact information for professional references that are familiar with your work. If possible, it is best to give former supervisors as references. Before submitting someone as a reference, let the individual know that you are applying for a new job and ask if they would be willing to be a reference for you and your work.
Some employers do not allow supervisors to provide feedback on former employees. If they agree, verify the contact information that they would prefer you submit (i.e., some people prefer being contacted at home rather than at work.) In terms of format, try to stay consistent with the format used in your resume.[Read More...]

We've forgotten how powerful it is to have markets fight back from bad openings like we had this morning. When we were in sea-of-red mode, you could see that this market could go down for the count, given that the insane prattle out of Washington is so toxic as to make you feel like an idiot for buying anything.
I find it so disabling. In the old days, the Republican Party was the party of fiscal conservation, but it spends just like the Democrats did under Bush. It was always the party that business could count on. But by simply pushing the notion that the debt ceiling is something that isn't routine, as opposed to offering a real plan that can win over Democrats who know we overspend as a nation, the Republicans can't even work with business.
So it was reasonable to think that this market couldn't come back from that ridiculously harmful rhetoric that the president gave us, even as it is true that a shutdown of the government by Republicans making a stand over a refusal to pay our nation's bills is not what the Constitution intended. How much better would it be for the Republicans if they just immediately agreed to a debt-ceiling deal and at the exact same time showed where $2 trillion could and must be cut? They would be heroes.
Nevertheless, the market shook off the negativity. I think that's because people want in, not out, and they are afraid of missing tomorrow's action.
New pattern.
Very bullish for the longer term.

Hunter education classes filling up fast
AUSTIN, Texas — The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is encouraging hunters in need of certification to enroll soon as fall hunter education courses are filling up fast. As hunting seasons draw closer, demand for hunter education classes is expected to increase.
"It would be much better to enroll early and avoid the rush right at the beginning of hunting seasons," said Terry Erwin, Coordinator for Hunter Education at TPWD. "If you wait, you might find that getting into a course will be more difficult."
Hunter education courses are conducted by certified volunteers all year across the state of Texas. Courses cost $15 and students can either take the free classroom study portion on the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Hunting Education Web site plus a one-day field course component or take the traditional two-day course that averages 14 hours of instruction. Anyone born on or after Sept. 2, 1971 must complete the education program to legally hunt or be accompanied by an individual who is at least 17, who is certified or exempt by law (born before Sept. 2, 1971). The minimum age to receive certification is 9. Certification is not required to purchase a license.
Hunters who are at least 17 years of age and have not completed the hunter education course can purchase a one-time-only year-long deferral for $10 and must be accompanied. Hunters who opted for "deferral" last year must complete the hunter education course to hunt legally this year.
"The deferral is only available once. The license point-of-sale vendors are not allowed to sell a deferral once it has been purchased by an individual," Erwin said. "The database keeps track of the sale, and will not allow a sale to occur with the same individual."
More than 30,000 aspiring hunters become certified every year in Texas and since 1972, and more than 820,000 Texans have completed the hunter education course, which is mandatory in all 50 states and 10 Canadian Provinces. Currently, hunter education courses are taught by 2,900 volunteers comprised of game wardens, professional educators and TPWD volunteers.
Hunting is safe and getting safer because of hunter education," said Erwin. "Make sure you are one of those responsible individuals who wish to continue the heritage of hunting for generations to come."

I very rarely put up my trades, but this is something I wanted to share. It's doubtful that it would happen.
IND gets:
F Lamar Odom
G Jarrett Jack
LAL gets:
F Troy Murphy (only if we get Odom, IMO)
G T.J. Ford
F Reggie Evans
TOR gets:
G Jordan Farmar
G Sasha Vujacic
F Adam Morrison
Speaking as the Pacers' GM, this would give us a player similar to Troy, but Odom's game is better inside the post rather than behind the arc usually. He would start at PF and Tyler would back him up. As for Jack, this is where I doubt things would happen. He's a player that fit in last season and with the defense added, he would be a fit to the rebuilding puzzle at PG. We also get rid of Ford so now we have a true PG for the team. Earl would back him up.
For the Lakers, it's tough to determine if they would make any trade like this, but they're still get some good backups in return in Troy and T.J. rather than just 1 reliable backup in Odom, they get 2 and also a defensive Reggie Evans from Toronto who can play center with Troy backing up Gasol at PF and T.J. backing up Fisher at PG.
For the Raptors, they are giving up much, but are getting some good reserves in return for Jack and Evans. Farmar would take the place of Jack and Vujacic can start or backup either DeRozan or Belinelli. Morrison can spot some minutes backing up Turkoglu at SF and battling Wright for time. They are getting 2 expiring contracts in Farmar and Morrison.
Again, this is something I wouldn't count on happening, but it's something that can possibly help us and probably LA and Toronto too.

Eight Colts are questionable for Monday night
Posted by Mike Florio on October 1, 2011, 10:21 PM EDT
APAs the Colts prepare to return to Tampa for the first time since an epic Monday night game eight years ago, eight members of the team are listed as questionable.
Perhaps the biggest surprise is that quarterback Kerry Collins, who apparently has a concussion, hasnt been ruled out for the game. Hes officially listed as questionable with a head injury. The team has not specifically said that Collins suffered a concussion last Sunday night, but coach Jim Caldwell has suggested that Collins is suffering concussion-like symptoms.
The Colts already have said that Curtis Painter will be the starting quarterback.
Also questionable is defensive end Dwight Freeney (ankle), defensive back Antoine Bethea (ankle), tackle Ryan Diem (ankle), tight end Brody Eldridge (knee), defensive tackle Fili Moala (ankle), offensive lineman Joe Reitz (ankle), and linebacker Ernie Sims (knee).
Freeney practiced fully on Friday and Saturday. He did not practice on Thursday
I want to pick us in this one, but I just can't trust Painter enough. That and they will be amped for what seems like their first MNF appearance in eons.
I'll say...

Colts 16

The next 12 months will be amongst the biggest in Pokémon history, says The Pokémon Company.
The firm is gearing up to launch multiple new games, a new TV series, events, a film and new toys throughout 2013, all climaxing in the launch of Pokémon X and Y on 3DS this October: the first ever worldwide release of a major Pokémon game.
The firm also says it has 'cleared the decks' in terms of licensing, and Tomy International has been brought onboard to ensure that everyone around the world gets the same toys as the ones out in Japan.
"Undoubtedly 2013 is a key year for us to grow and usher in a new era for Pokémon with Pokémon X and Pokémon Y and the introduction of new characters as the launch platform," The Pokémon Company International's marketing director Anthony Cornish told MCV.
"We believe these games will appeal to all generations both veterans and newcomers to Pokémon."
But before the launch of X and Y, Nintendo will release Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity in Europe on Friday, May 17th. And the firm will this month launch a Skylanders-style toy/game hybrid called Pokémon Rumble U in Japan, although there's currently no word on a European release yet.
For licensing opportunities, contact Ted Kochowicz at email@example.com.

FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif. — The Wet Seal reported that total sales declined 9.9% to $48.3 million for the month of September. Comparable-store sales fell 12.7% compared with same-store sales that were essentially flat last year.
E-commerce sales, which increased 15% for the month, were a bright spot for the company.
"Our September consolidated comparable store sales reflect progress from our comparable store sales decline of 18.3% in fiscal August. These results are in line with expectations we had at the beginning of this quarter for progressive improvements from month to month," the company said in a statement.
The company is expecting comparable-store sales for the fiscal third quarter to be within or slightly better than its initial estimate of a decline ranging from 14% to 18%. It also expects the loss per diluted share will remain within the range of its initial estimate of between 13 cents and 16 cents.

I was wondering, since the Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan poll numbers were so wrong, was their plan to cut back and shave billions of dollars taken from the same source? Just a thought.

Entry into FWCS (Fort Wayne Community Schools) should require the parent(s) acknowledge they have read, understood and instructed their child(ren) on the "rules of conduct." When those rules are broken, both the parent(s) and student face the consequences. I, for one, am tired of excuses.
Simply reminding people that America is not a Christian theocracy doesn't constitute a war on Christmas.

After rejecting countless concepts from external design houses for the "Type 7" car, Porsche decided it would design the car itself. The man charged with creating it was Mr Ferry Porsche's son, Mr Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, AKA "Butzi", who was still only in his twenties. The brief given to him by his father was that the new car must retain the Porsche shape, but be reimagined for the 1960s with more space inside, and that it should include "luggage space that could take an owner's golf clubs".
The result, designed with Porsche's body engineer Mr Erwin Komenda, was a model that encompassed a long bonnet, a sloping roofline and a powerful six-cylinder engine. It was simple and beautiful. "Design must be functional, and functionality must be translated into visual aesthetics without any reliance on gimmicks that have to be explained," its creator explained.
At the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1963, Porsche unveiled the 901. And if it wasn't for the fact that Peugeot complained about the name - the French manufacturer claimed a patent on three-digit numbers with a zero in the middle - we would probably still be talking about the 50-year longevity of the 901. As it was, Porsche simply swapped the "0" for a "1".

The North Platte Community College Lady Knights advanced their early-season record to 7-1 Saturday, with two wins in the Colby Classic.
The Lady Knights then continued their strong play to defeat the Trinidad State Junior College Lady Trojans 3-1 (21-25, 25-18, 25-15, 25-15).
The Lady Knights started out slow Saturday morning and could never get any momentum against the Lady Trojans. They dropped the first set 15-25. But the team stormed back to win tightly contested second and third sets 26-24 and 25-23, before winning the fourth set 25-19 to defeat Colby.
Joli Hopping paced the Lady Knights with 16 assists and two ace serves. Sabrina Hallahan led the Knights with 13 kills while Samantha Kennedy was also in double figure kills with 11 and led the team with three blocks. Shannon Liewer led the Lady Knights with 25 digs. Laura Beckman contributed double-digit assists with 12.
We got off to an incredibly slow start against Colby (Community College), said head coach Sally Thalken with only five kills in the first set! We fought back to win the second set which gave us momentum into the third. It was another dog fight. We showed some character to win the third in a tight set. We worked hard to get a lead and keep momentum to win the fourth. Colby is a really good team and our girls played really scrappy defense and stayed aggressive to earn the victory.
In the second game of the day the Lady Knights again started out slow as they dropped the first set to Trinidad State 21-25. As they had earlier in the day the Lady Knights responded by winning the second set 25-18. The Lady Knights held onto the momentum as they cruised to identical wins in the third and fourth sets at a score of 25-15.
Samantha Byrn led the way against the Lady Trojans with 14 kills as the only Lady Knight in double figures. Sabrina Hallahan had 22 digs to pace the Lady Knights while Shannon Liewer was right behind with 21 digs. Laura Beckman led the Lady Knights with 16 assists while Joli Hopping had 13.
Trinidad State is another big team with good volleyball players, said coach Thalken. We once again came out a little flat and lost the first set; frustrating that we cant start faster. I am pleased that we came back. Our aggressive serves, really scrappy defense, hustle plays that keyed momentum and controlling the net brought home the win.
Overall I was pleased with the weekend. We all will enjoy the extended weekend as it will bring some needed rest for the legs and some girls that are not playing at 100 percent.
The Lady Knights return to action on Thursday, Sept. 5 in Sterling, Colo. where they take on the Northeastern Junior College Lady Plainsmen at 7 p.m. CST.
The Lady Knights then return home on Wednesday, Sept. 11 to face Nebraska Community College Athletic Conference foe McCook Community College at 7 p.m.

There seems to be an interest to move the statue of General Wayne. Why not consider the northwest corner of the Citizens Square parking lot and face toward the Courthouse. Maybe some volunteer groups or organizations would help with the move. Maybe Little Turtle could be put on the northeast corner of the parking lot. I take 15 different maintenance medications. Sometimes I go without because I went over my own fiscal cliff long ago. The fiscal cliff deal and its tax increase now afford me less "universal healthcare" to the tune of four generic meds I will now miss every month.
President Obama isn't going to take your guns. He said he supports the Second Amendment. His executive order is only going to take all the clips, magazines and ammunition. See, we'll still have our guns.
These low-information voters who hate capitalism and want the government to take care of them obviously don't like freedom either. Unfortunately, the government does take care of them.
Second Amendment allows guns to protect family and for hunting. The NRA is a special-interest group. … Why does an ordinary citizen need an assault rifle with hundreds of rounds? You paranoid people are scary!
Thought Clown Car was gone, but more of the same stupid and paranoid people survive. Arm teachers, college students, cops in theaters, churches, YMCA, library, McDonalds. These mass killings can and have happened anywhere. When will it ever end? All these guns don't make us safer.
When the Second Amendment was written, it was meant for citizens to be able to protect themselves from their government. There were no assault weapons, but all sides had to rely on one-shot muskets to even things out. Today is an evolution of that concept.
Charles Shumer, senator from N.Y., asked Walmart to take its guns off sale, which amazingly they did … .
Saying tougher gun laws will take guns out of the hands of criminals is ludicrous. They have no regard for the law now and will not if new laws are passed.
It's hard to believe that intelligent people really think a "law" will keep a "killer" from getting a gun.
Gun bans are like drug bans — they only make illegal dealers rich.
The question nobody seems to ask, "Is there ever going to be an end to the debt ceiling?" When the debt reaches $20 trillion, maybe China will want Hawaii as payment since the United States apparently is never going to have a reduction in spending and a balanced budget.
Friday received the first paycheck of the year. We are what I consider a middle-class family, and we were looking at possibly purchasing a new car this year. Well, looking at my paycheck stub between the increase in my insurance premium and increase in Social Security, I am $245 a month behind last year's wages. Needless to say, insurance is more important than a car so will have to stick with the 8-year-old vehicle.
Was that the Notre Dame boys team or girls team who was exposed by Alabama's men? Talk about humiliating.
How about first let's get a definition of all types of "assault weapons" before we ban them.
President Obama and his left-wing cronies won't deal with the real issue, mental illness, because none of them would be allowed to touch a weapon of any kind.
Locking schools down is a great idea. But what happens when the gun-toting suspect waits until a door is opened because someone is exiting the building. How does this help those inside.
Mayor Henry, do you know how stupid that sounds, "Mayors against Illegal Guns" coalition? Dude, 99.9 percent of the human race is against "illegal guns!"
President Obama should set a limit on how much money, possessions and property a person needs to live comfortably. If you have more than that, it should be confiscated and given to us of lesser means. Fairness demands it.
If quick-firing, high-capacity weapons are not useful for a citizen's self-protection, why does President Obama's security use them?
Once again, President Obama and the Democrats see an opportunity not to let a crisis go to waste. They see another dream come true in banning some guns. They will have a totally thought-out plan on how to do it after several weeks of phony talks. True discussion and study of gun violence isn't possible in two weeks, but they have to strike while the irons hot.
The insurance people out there need to stop asking for Social Security numbers just to get a quote on their insurance. You don't need to have our Social Security number in your system unless we become a customer.
To the two guys wrapped in the United States flag at the polar bear plunge. Wearing the flag is not patriotic. You should read up on the Flag Code.
When the president says we must compromise, he must hear we must do it 100 percent my way!
Those nice, new, very expensive, … informational billboards outside our high schools are useless if the so-called "intelligent" educators are unable to program them — the one outside Wayne High School is still set for Daylight Saving Time.
Mayor Henry says we all will be paying for the legal fees to condemn Aqua. How much will that bill be? The last one was more than $1 million in legal fees for Aqua North! I am a taxpayer and a City Utilities customer. I should not have to pay for this; it has no affect on me!
I went to my husband's doctor's office to pick up his prescription. While waiting for it, a nurse came up to the four nurses at the front desk and asked them if they had gotten a flu shot. All said no. She asked them if they wanted one since she had just enough left for them. All said no. Now we wonder why so many people get the flu and from where.
Why don't we ever hear anything about increasing the penalty for committing a crime with a gun, especially those when someone is shot. These robberies are not accidents. The penalty should be far more costly than they can hope to gain by committing any crime. It is not the guns that commit the act. We have to stop recycling these people.
I'm amazed at the ignorance and immaturity of those rushing to clean out the gun stores. No one is taking your guns or threatening your right to have them. The basis is the need for large automatic, full-clip weapons. Hunting? How much meat is left to eat, Sport?
I'm doubtful using the City Light money to repair the streets is sensible. Granted, they need fixed, but if the repair is the usual patch with 2-inch drop or gravel fill, you may as well throw the money in the hole with it. Street repair money should be budgeted along with infrastructure and other maintenance of city property … . Put it (Legacy funds) in riverfront improvement like San Antonio River walk so everyone has an opportunity to appreciate and enjoy our three rivers history.
If Mayor Henry wants to move the statue, let him pay for it himself. He makes enough money being mayor of Fort Wayne.
