Texas AgriLife Extension IPM agents in West Texas caution growers to watch for early-season insects that could cause significant damage, especially to plants already suffering from environmental stresses.
Spider mites and thrips are the primary targets.
Monti Vandiver, IPM agent for the Northwest Plains, has observedspider mites in corn and sorghum, particularly on field margins. "Now would be a good time to start developing a spider mite management plan," he says "Primary strategies are threshold based curative methods or a preventive approach."
He recommends tactics that protect beneficials insects. "When considering a preventive miticide application, remember current products are not systemic and will only protect the leaves that are sprayed—any subsequent growth will not be protected. Applications to small corn or sorghum are also less cost effective when considering that less miticide is intercepted by the plant versus an application made to larger crop near canopy closure."

An extra application could pay off, he says. "The additional cost of a 'dedicated' preventive miticide application would likely be a good trade for the added protection offered by more crop coverage."
He's also seeing increased pressure from thrips in cotton. "I have observed immature thrips in some cotton that had a seed treatment insecticide applied. If immature thrips are present following seed treatments, the treatment has lost or is losing its effectiveness. Treatment thresholds for thrips in cotton are dynamic; under good growing conditions a foliar treatment should be considered when one thrips per true leaf is present, but in cotton growing slowly due to poor environmental conditions or other stress, the threshold should be reduced by half."
Cotton stressed by recent storms should be watched closely. "It cannot afford additional loss of leaf tissue," Vandiver says. "The lack of leaf surface area will make application coverage even more important. I cannot stress enough the need make timely insecticide applications for thrips. Insecticide applications based on visual plant symptoms are late and will not provide the economic benefit of a timely application and are what I like to call a 'revenge' treatment."
Gaines County
Gaines County IPM agent Manda Anderson is also seeing thrips pressure on cotton.
"Thrips numbers have been below threshold levels in the IPM scouting program fields," so far, she says. "However, we have seen a few fields in which the threshold should be lowered because the plants are already suffering from environmental damage, such as wind and blowing sand. In these cases, producers may consider lowering their thresholds to one-halfthrips per true-leaf if they are seeing immature thrips in the already damaged fields." She says typical treatment threshold is one thrips per true leaf through the fifth true-leaf stage.
Anderson says presence of immature thrips indicate that thrips are reproducing in the field. She agrees that cotton farmers can't afford the damage. "Thrips' feeding damage, along with the environmental damage, will set the plants back and slow growth and development."
Farmers should monitor fields. "Weekly scouting will help you to accurately monitor thrips populations and help determine whether leaf damage is being caused by thrips feeding, wind or blowing sand, or a combination of the two. Never make a treatment based solely on leaf damage; only treat if thrips are still present and the population has reached the economic threshold."
She says thrips are out and looking for an attractive crop.
She's also found evidence of Kurtomathrips but says growers should not panic. "Earlier this week I found an adult Kurtomathrips on a cotton plant at the cotyledon stage, so we could see Kurtomathrips earlier this year, and a large Kurtomathrips population would likely be devastating on young cotton plants.
"Seed treatments would likely control this pest until the treatment starts wearing off. In 2011, we conducted three insecticide trials in Gaines County. Our data suggest that Trimax Pro (imidacloprid), Orthene (acephate), Intruder (acetamaprid), and Centric (thiamethoxam) all have excellent activity on Kurtomathrips."
Vandiver says farmers should continue to be vigilant for herbicide resistant weeds. "I have received several reports of potential glyphosate resistant pigweed," he says. "We need to be diligent in managing weeds using multiple and timely tactics."

In many developing countries with low agriculture productivity and economic poverty in rural areas, education systems must be planned to meet the needs of rural people and their economic and social development on many fronts simultaneously.
Moreover, in these countries, very few of the highly skilled and trainer man power find opportunities to use their skills and abilities if no employment is available for such expertise. The result is a great waste of trained human resources, a drain on the economy of the country and an unnecessary source of socio-political tension.
There have been several approaches to the question of manpower planning for the implementation of national, regional (provincial), district (country) and village rural development plans.
These may be considered as:
- Some educational analysts believe that the demand for educational manpower should be increased by creating new job opportunity in order to absorb the out put of the education systems in the form of trained graduates.
- A second approach has been that education should be adapted to job or role requirements, since the shortage of skills is most frequently seen in science, technology, agronomy, engineering and management. Here, the establishment of vocational, ability tests, a reduction in unemployment will follow. technical schools and also a change in the content of education to relate the skills taught to jobs is suggested.
- There are analysts who propose that limiting access certain kinds and levels of education and the selection of pupils based on assessment of ability should be the basis of decreasing or stabilizing school enrolment. These analysis believe unemployment to be the result of undue expansion in the education and thus recommend ''rationing" education.
- Other educational analysts propose a change in the pattern of demand for education as a solution to reduce unemployment among school leavers. By transferring some schooling costs to pupils, reducing the gap in earning differentials between groups with different educational attainments and allowing promotions on job- related
Implementation of any of the above educational approaches to manpower planning and human resource development demands varying degrees of cooperation from the public and private sectors of the economy, from non- educational sectors, ministers of labor, regional employment offices, and central planning organizations, in relation to political considerations of the government of each developing nation.
There are many factors and issues of importance to be considered when attempts are made to improve the rural education system in developing countries. These are:
1. Equal education opportunities for all.
2. Proper location of education facilities at the lower levels of education.
3. A sincerer endeavor to equalize the chances of achievement.
4. A review of present procedures of selection in education.
This factor, in terms of the socio-economic back ground of a student's family, influences a student's achievements considerably.
- Use of income-related subsides and fees can be effective in equalizing education opportunities.
- Provision of facilities for the education of adults in the labor force to improve their skills and education through full- time or part-time programs.
- To study how equalization of educational opportunities influences and relates to greater social mobility.
Taking in to account equal chances and access of rural people to education at different levels to meet their needs, the following points deserve special attention:
1. The educational and training objectives and the performance standards of formal and informal education should be well defined and should be specific in terms of rural development. In this are included minimum levels of repeat a grade.
2. Identifying factors which influence the efficiency of the educational system. Included in this category are factors such as dropout, repeater rate, systems of promotion, presence or absence of social tension, the distance students have to travel to school, testing systems, the language of testing, methods of teaching (good or mediocre), poor health of students and inability to meet educational expenses. It is also important to asses the causes of inefficiency in the social and educational conditions and to design cost- effective measures to cope with them.
3. The level of training and pay given to teachers has important educational and financial implications. large classes at the middle levels, short duration teacher training courses, supported by in- service training , better use of locally based primary teacher training colleges, all serve o reduce costs, improve efficiency and ensure more efficient use of resources without loss of quality in teaching and educational standards. Such measures as adopting school calendars to local economic activities, flexible promotion systems, combined with multi-grade teaching and also teaching in national languages, all improve attendance, use of resources, and children's attitudes towards education and schooling.
- To lower costs, teachers and students may help to prepare some of the teaching materials, equipments and facilities. Also, a central or mobile unit can be used to keep manufactured apparatus in one place while serving several schools.
- Use of mass media, such as television and radio, satellites (India is using it for rural education) should be based on careful cost production and distribution analysis a well as the availability of spare parts. The cost per head of production for the mass media changes drastically as the size of the student body increase.
- In countries where broadcasting facilities are easily available for the rural people, the involvement of teachers with the work of broadcasting in all phases of broadcasting programs ensure greater teacher cooperation, better teaching techniques and improved subject matter for classes
- Better nutrition can increase education efficiency. Food programs for schools, children and pregnant mothers and ease of access of nitration information and education, plus simple, and easy to read material for all age groups in all education institutions can have a far-reaching impact on educational investment for rural people in particular rural women.
- Change in the structure of education systems to maximize both efficiency and educational opportunities. The traditional 6 years primary, 3 years of lower and 3 years of upper secondary school (6-3-3) can be modified to 4-4-4 years or 4-2-2-4 years, each serving different needs for schooling, covering a larger, population of entry age group children and economizing on costs.
- Education work land may be once established and operating close articulation between formal. Non formal and even informal systems of education (see chapter 11)
- Basic education programs once established and operating effectively must be followed by vocational training in the form of short courses at vocational schools or rural training centers, or, as apprenticeships extension work cooperatives on or off the job training youth work groups, mass communication media and mobile training units in both urban and rural areas. These informal educational approaches may be more cost effective than replication of formal education and training institutions at the lower and upper secondary levels.
In developing countries, implementation of rural development programs must be coordinated with the background and requirements of the following groups of people participating in its different phases. These are
- High level national or regional policy markers
- National or regional planners who are usually sectoral professional people with very limited understanding of the relations of various sectors of rural development and should be given orientation courses or comprehensive simple information on rural development in its many facets
- Operators, agents, or implementers like field men, project leaders and directors who will be working in local regional and national levels, but are not concerned with formulating policies or planning, and are concerned with implementing rural development according to the operations schedule. Their levels of activity may be described as
- Management and project leaders working at regional provincial and national levels
- Supervisory capacity, where supervision is in the form of technical specialists, then project supervisors and project managers will need to be trained. The success of all projects undertaken depends on these groups of people must have the following attributes and qualifications
i. Leadership ability
ii. Some specialized knowledge of one or more subjects related to rural development such as agriculture planning management etc
- An understanding of all other main topics or subjects relevant rural development such as health, nutrition, extension education etc.
- Ability to understand and communicate with rural people
- Field or local level. Here extension agents field men field workers change agents in a system of hierarchy provide the necessary base and contact points with rural people, rural households and farmers at the lowest levels.
- The rural people they include artisans craftsmen, local technicians, farmers, rural women, rural educated young people, religious leaders, traditional leaders and the general mass of rural inhabitants
At present universities in many developing countries do not meet the increasing demand for agronomists, development planning specialists in certain fields to implement rural development programs together with some other inadequacies and also experiences gained.
- Training was limited largely to agriculture
- The task of communicating with the rural people was normally confined o one government Agency
- Inability to identify, to select and to train efficient and effective rural leaders for the different social strata of the rural community
- the ability of the higher academic institutions to train capable managers and supervisors for rural development project
- It has been show that on-the –job training is more effective and less costly than pre-employment training. Also in the rural areas of some developing countries, facilities are not available for on-the-job training so rural youth migrate to the towns and the area is depleted of potential entrepreneur
- Lack of coordination between on-the-job training facilities and formal and informal education facilities
- Employers putting emphasis on, and giving preference to graduates from formal education schools and colleges over vocational skill graduates.
- Government wage structures have further aggravated this situation in favor of academic graduates.
- Education of women is not oriented towards efficient home making, home economics subject matter, nutrition, child care, extension work rather than on medicine, dentistry, teaching professions, etc.
Normally, manpower with higher and intermediate level skills for rural development can not trained in the universities of most developing countries. But for adolescents and youth, these countries need a system of informal education, which so far has proved costly for educated persons and usable only if self-employed. However, the integration of an informal element in to the formal education system, for lout-of-school youth, and utilizing the same facilities and personnel on a year-round basis, seems to be the quickest and least costly system of education for rural development
Before examining the objectives of education and training, and being informed of some of the inadequacies in the structure of formal and informal education for rural development in the developing countries let us first examine the levels of education.
- Learning is a lifetime process, that is, continuous learning. Here a learner may start at any age and work at his own pace up to a level compatible with his abilities. This types of learning would generally include such skills as health care, family planning, farming, operating small industries functional literacy, home improvement and the like
- Instruction in skills needed for rural development and improvement of immediate environment
- Providing professional training, technical and specialized through primary and secondary centers of learning, such as universities and colleges.
In the developing countries the following structure of educational systems for implementation of rural development work-experience in rural sectors
- Formal education provides the knowledge and skills fore understanding and leadership, supplemented by knowledge and work-experience in rural sector.
- Secondary level education. At this level, the educational system can be a flexible system to allow for pre-vocational training that will provide skills for people to work in the rural sector. Instruction and training in agricultural play an important role at this level. The establishment of technical schools provides enough skilled labor for small scale rural industries and related farming needs.
- Primary level. This is the lowest level and must cover the majority of the masses of rural people. Farmers and rural leaders should also be given training in leadership and to develop their abilities.
Experience shows that the most suitable approach for teaching rural development principles and practices is the problem- solving approach with the simple, specific problems experienced by rural people, as against the more comprehensive training approach. Adult education should besides increasing the literacy level of rural people, promote self-reliance and participation in the decision making process at the village or rural area level. These trainings include group training sessions, demonstration sessions and exercises, audio-visual training sessions, face-to-face communications of the extension agent with rural people, distribution of information in the form of leaflets, brochures, pamphlets and group meetings, etc
Frequently, a major reason for low productivity and slow socioeconomic development in developing countries, is low participation in mass education in spite of the fact hat many developing nations are spending more one education than other sectors of the economy and services. For example, in 62 developing countries studied, the median spending of a total government expenditure on education is 18 percent and the number of countries spending over 20 percent is increasing. At the same time, the median expenditure on the education is only about 4 percent of the Gross national product (GNP) but there are increasing numbers of countries with 5 percent of median GNP expenditure, on education. In spite of the expenditure only 34 percent of total primary school age children are enrolled in 25 of the poorest countries and in the more advanced developing countries about 25 percent of the same age group do not go to school. The UNESCO projected estimates for school enrolment up to 1985 are shown in Table 20-1. It forecasts that school enrolment in the developing nations will have increased from 260 million in 1975 to 350 million in 1985.
UNESCO's school Enrollment Projections in Developing Countries (Million)
Age group
|Total 5 to 14 in all developing countries
|In school
|Out of school
The overall literacy of these countries during the 1960's rose from 41 percent to 50 percent, while the number of illiterates in the age group above 15 increased from 201 million to 756 million that is about 50 percent of their population. The increase in the out-of-school group by 1985 is likely to produce a total of 375 million illiterates in the developing countries. As it stands, a number of developing countries are now approaching the conditions the limits of their financial capability without having achieved even a minimum education for the majority of their population.
In conclusion, enormous number of rural development plans, programs, projects and schemes have been put forth by the well-intended experts and specialists in the last few decades but moral and humanitarian aspects of improving the conditions of the rural poor, of the landless and of the jobless, which lie at the very heart of development process have been largely ignored. This is because such issue affects the sponsors, the experts and the implementers in both the developed and developing countries. Some of the core problems are (6a).
- The process of rural development if sincerely undertaken must involve the rural people and lead to a world condition in which people in diverse regions with different resources and cultures can interact as equals, rather one in which some are always dependent on charitable actins and programs organized by others.
- Participation should not be viewed as involving rural people in a set of preconceived programs and procedures, rather a continuous process of consultation to derive benefits from the project. Here, establishment of an unbiased and compassionate mechanism of consultation becomes quite essential.
- Participation without community organization, creation and strengthening of institutions to encourage and protect the participants and also implement decisions is no more than an empty word.
- Learning of access to knowledge and information is a perquisite of an effective participation. This is not the same as training the rural people ti participate in a particular project and carry out a certain set of tasks and orders. Because, for the vast majority of human beings, whether in rural or urban areas, training o carry out orders without accompanying spiritual and intellectual development consolidates the present division between the modern and traditional sectors.
- At the very heart of the development process also lies the welfare of the human beings, rather than abstract indicators of social and economic progress which may be convenient for planners and planning. It is the organization of production improvement of channel of marketing and distribution, sound adaptation of technology education of human resources according to social needs and aspirations, the strengthening of the family, of the social structures, especially those of the decision making, the enrichment of culture, and serious improvement of basic services such as education, health etc
- At present intervention in many of these processes of development in the world is either frustrating or virtually impossible. Since the development of village or a rural area can not be considered in isolation from the macro conditions of the entire world, we cab not expect the rural people to shoulder the whole task of development and to disregard the many restrictions imposed by world conditions. Because justice and peace are prerequisites of material well-being then no amount of village effort can eliminate the restrictions imposed by a world at war and also by most prevalent of social injustice
- At the core of development also lies a process of universal education; both material and spiritual. This education should gradually involve every inhabitant of the region, independent of creed or social position. Far from being an academic pursuit, it must become a dynamic process of the population learning about its own path of development, the process of the individual, family and community life, their past roots, their nature, and their present and future directions. The basic purpose of universal education is to educate, within the population, the human resources necessary for brining about change, a sufficient number of men and women with a variety of skills and capabilities who are aware of the great difficulties of the task that lies before them, but who are determined to lead the community through successive stages of development, despite the great turbulence of this age of transition
Implementation of any of the above educational approaches to manpower planning and human resource development demands varying degrees of cooperation from the public and private sectors of the economy, from non- educational sectors, ministers of labor, regional employment offices, and central planning organizations, in relation to political considerations of the government of each developing nation
The level of training and pay given to teachers has important educational and financial implications. large classes at the middle levels, short duration teacher training courses, supported by in- service training , better use of locally based primary teacher training colleges, all serve o reduce costs, improve efficiency and ensure more efficient use of resources without loss of quality in teaching and educational standards.
Experience shows that the most suitable approach for teaching rural development principles and practices is the problem- solving approach with the simple, specific problems experienced by rural people, as against the more comprehensive training approach.
For the vast majority of human beings, whether in rural or urban areas, training o carry out orders without accompanying spiritual and intellectual development consolidates the present division between the modern and traditional sectors.

Infamous Rock Burglar Caught, Less Famous Grandma Bandit Killed
If your media-given surname is "burglar" or "bandit," and you've been spending your days actually engaged in the practices of burglary or banditry, then you're probably pretty depressed right now! Unless you're dead.
In Arizona, police nabbed Robert James Neese, aka the "Rock Burglar," who allegedly committed at least 340 break-ins over a 17-year career and stole $10 million in cash, baubles, guns, and other junk. Neese developed his personal brand by consistently throwing rocks through the windows of rich people's homes, entering the holes left by the rocks, and taking the rich people's belongings without their permission. How inconsiderately lo-fi.
Neese eventually switched from throwing rocks to prying doors, but "door prying burglar" wasn't as catchy so he'll remain the "Rock Burglar" forevermore. His capture surely pleases sadistic Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio—who took office the same year Neese's spree began— because now he can make Neese toil in the hot sun in one of Arizona's rehabilitative rock quarries, or wear a heavy outfit made of stones. Also happy (probably) is Dan Quayle, one of Neese's most famous victims. Neese stole nothing but a sack of potatoes from the former vice president, just to be cruel.
In other unfortunate nicknamed-criminal news, Atlanta police shot and killed a man who became known as the "Grandma Bandit" after robbing a bunch of drug stores while dressed as a woman. Apparently the bandit—who was also a licensed pilot—would tell drugstore employees that he had cancer, then ask for money. Police say they determined the bandit's sex after "further investigation," but that they aren't sure he truly had cancer. "Someone who commits this kind of crime is also someone who will most likely lie," says a former police sergeant who through years of experience has gained insight into the criminal mindset.
Just down the road in Florida, Michael Anthony Price—aka the "Brazen Bandit"—also received some bad news this week: he got a 52-year prison sentence for robbing some banks. During one of his robberies, Price shot a customer who is now paralyzed. Seriously, that was not necessary. The Brazen Bandit is a jerk.
Finally, in Washington state a man known as the "Barefoot Bandit" learned that he can't make any money off of books or movies related to his crimes, which were "sometimes shoeless." Twenty-year-old Colton Harris-Moore allegedly spent two years burgling and thieving all kinds of things, from cash to boats. Interestingly, Harris-Moore is also a pilot, just like the Grandma Bandit. Perhaps they were related, or there is some sort of pilot-bandit subclass.

The bounty scandal continues to percolate, with the head coach gone for the year and the interim coach soon to return the G.M. a couple of games away from coming back, and the suspensions of the players a couple of weeks (or more) from being resolved. And as the Saints try to climb out of the 0-4 hole that started their season, one of their key defensive players has an opinion as to what the team's record would be but for the distractions and problems created by the bounty case.
"If you have none of this bountygate in the offseason. If there's no problems. Through five games, instead of 1-4, what's your best guess as to what your record would be?" Erik Kuselias asked safety Roman Harper during Friday's Pro Football Talk.
Said Harper, "5-0."
"You'd be 5-0," Kuselias said. "So this has cost you four games?"
"Hey, it is what it is," Harper said. "It's all right. You know, you can't win 'em all. And at the end of the day we have to climb out of it from here. And we still have a chance in this division — that's the crazy thing. No matter how we started the season. I think the last two Super Bowl champs limped into the playoffs at 9-7. All you can ask for is a chance and an opportunity late in January and that's all we ask for."
They definitely have a chance. And their best chance to keep it going comes on Sunday, when the Saints play the Buccaneers in Tampa.This video is no longer available. Click here to watch more NBC Sports videos!

Dancing with the Stars" returns with new surprises and all the elements viewers have come to know and love including the Kids Ballroom competition. "Macy's Stars of Dance," which features some of the most renowned dancers and choreographers of our time will also be back on "Dancing with the Stars the Results." One of the Macy's Stars of Dance performances will be the hugely popular "Design-A-Dance" which made its debut last season. In addition, couples will once again take part in a team dance, group dance and face off as well as perform the Argentine Tango; a first in the series. And in an exciting new twist, the bottom two couples facing elimination will "Dance Off" to determine who is dismissed in the first weeks of competition.
In alphabetical order, the 13 stars making their ballroom dancing debut are:
BELINDA CARLISLE — Belinda Carlisle is not only known as the lead singer of the Go-Go's, the most successful all-female band of all time, but also as one of the late '80s' most glamorous adult pop soloists. The Go-Go's' 1981 multi-platinum hit debut, "Beauty and the Beat," spawned mega hits "Our Lips Are Sealed" and "We Got the Beat" and made the Go-Go's the first all-female band (who wrote their own music and played their own instruments) to achieve a No. 1 album. The following years saw continued success for the girls with hits "Vacation," "Head Over Heels" and "Turn to You." Belinda led off her solo career with the gold debut "Belinda," and followed with huge mainstream hits "Mad About You," "Heaven Is a Place on Earth" and "I Get Weak." Since then she has released five more albums, including 2007's French pop collection, "Voilà," and continues to tour internationally, both with her Go-Go's sisters and as a solo artist. She teams with Jonathan Roberts, who returns for his sixth season.
DAVID ALAN GRIER — David Alan Grier is recognized for his work in television and film – in TV he's known from roles in "In Living Color," "Life with Bonnie" with Bonnie Hunt, "DAG" and, most recently, "Chocolate News" for Comedy Central. In the feature world he has played memorable characters in numerous films, including "Baadassss!," "The Woodsman," opposite Kevin Bacon and Mos Def, "15 Minutes," "Boomerang," "Bewitched," "Jumanji" and Robert Altman's "Streamers." A multi-talented and Yale School of Drama trained actor, David began his professional career on Broadway as Jackie Robinson in "The First," for which he earned a Tony nomination. He then joined the cast of "Dreamgirls," and went on to star opposite Denzel Washington in "A Soldier's Play"; both actors continued their roles in the film version, "A Soldier's Story." Davis is paired with Kym Johnson, who returns for her sixth season.
JEWEL — She grew up on a remote ranch in Alaska, where her family were pioneers. From poverty and teen homelessness to the triumph of international stardom, the three-time Grammy nominee has enjoyed career longevity rare among her generation of artists and has sold 27 million albums worldwide. Her debut album, "Pieces of You," became one of the best selling debut albums of all time, going platinum 12 times. Last year the singer/songwriter released her first country record, "Perfectly Clear," which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. In May 2009, she will release an album of original and traditional lullabies. Jewel lives on a working ranch in Stephenville, Texas with her husband, World Champion bull-riding superstar Ty Murray. She teams with 2006 U.S. National finalist Dmitry Chaplin, who makes his "Dancing with the Stars" debut.
SHAWN JOHNSON — The youngest ever competitor on "Dancing with the Stars," 17 year-old Olympian Shawn Johnson was the gold medalist in balance beam at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where she also earned three silver medals in the team, floor exercise and individual all-around categories. The current two-time National Champion and high-school junior, Shawn appeared on a limited edition Cheerios box in early 2009, led the pledge of allegiance at last year's Democratic National Convention in Denver, was a headliner of last fall's Tour of Gymnastics Superstars, and was named Choice Female Athlete at the 2008 Teen Choice Awards. Her debut biography, "Shawn Johnson — Olympic Champion: Stories Behind the Smile," was released in December. She teams up with former "Dancing with the Stars" champ Mark Ballas, who returns for his fourth season.
LIL' KIM — Born Kimberly Denise Jones, Lil' Kim is a Grammy Award-winning, multi-platinum rapper, singer, actress and fashion icon. She is one of three female rappers to have a No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hit with 2001's "Lady Marmalade," featuring Christina Aguilera, Pink and M_a. As an actress she appeared on television shows such as "Moesha" and "The Game," and on her own reality series, "Countdown to Lockdown," which had the highest-rated premiere in BET's history. On film she has appeared in "Zoolander," "She's All That," "Juwanna Man" and "You Got Served." She's currently working on her fifth studio album, expected to be released in 2009. Lil' Kim teams with reigning champ Derek Hough, who returns for his fourth season.
GILLES MARINI — Gilles Marini exploded onto the scene as Dante, the Casanova living in the beach house next door to Kim Cattrall's Samantha in the "Sex and the City" movie, a role which has earned him international recognition. Born and raised in France, Gilles joined the French army and was stationed in Paris, where he served as a fireman for the famous Brigade des Sapeurs Pompiers de Paris. After fulfilling his military duties, he decided to come to the United States to learn English while working as a model. Gilles, who has appeared in series such as "Ugly Betty," "Dirty Sexy Money" and "Criminal Minds," will next be seen as Vanessa Redgrave's husband on FX's "Nip/Tuck." He currently resides in California with his wife, Carole, son Georges and daughter Juliana. He teams up with two-time champion Cheryl Burke. Cheryl returns for her seventh season.
TY MURRAY — Ty Murray has been labeled the most accomplished rodeo athlete in the century-long history of the sport. With a record-setting seven All-Around World Championship titles and two bull riding World titles under his belt, he has truly earned his nickname as "King of the Cowboys." Now retired from competition, Ty spends his time with his singer-songwriter wife, Jewel, on their 2,100-acre private ranch in Stephenville, Texas. He may have retired from the arena, but Ty hasn't slowed down as a cowboy. In 2004 he helped shepherd National Day of the Horse through the U.S. Senate, encouraging Americans "to be mindful of the contribution of horses to the economy, history and character of the United States." He runs his working cattle ranch and trains horses throughout the year. Additionally, he remains active with the Professional Bull Riders, Inc. (PBR), an organization he and 19 other elite bull riders founded in 1992. Ty serves as a board advisor, promotes a top level bull riding event in his hometown, and provides TV commentary for PBR events on NBC and VERSUS. He joins 10 Dance Youth National champion Chelsie Hightower, who makes her series debut.
STEVE-O — Determined to build a career in television and film, Steve-O, a.k.a. Stephen Glover, sent his self-produced videos to anyone he thought might watch them, including Jeff Tremaine (MTV's "Jackass" creator/director/producer). Steve-O wrote himself a "mile of work" to do for Tremaine and "Jackass." When MTV rejected his more dangerous ideas, he produced his own "too hot for TV" video series and stage show with the "Don't Try This at Home Tour." Steve-O also starred in his own show for MTV, "Wildboyz." 2006 U.S. Youth Latin champ and 2007 World Swing Dance champ Lacey Schwimmer returns for her second season to team with Steve-O.
NANCY O'DELL — The co-anchor of "Access Hollywood," Nancy O'Dell has contributed reports to NBC's "Today Show" and "Dateline NBC." Beyond covering events such as the Oscars, the Emmys, the Grammys and the Golden Globe Awards, Nancy has been chosen by NBC for the last eight years to host two of their big annual network broadcasts, the Golden Globes Arrivals Special and the Tournament of Roses Parade. Not only is she one of the country's most respected and leading entertainment journalists, she has also appeared in numerous films, including "Thank You For Smoking," "Scream 2," "Scream 3," "Martin Lawrence Live: Runteldat," and the television series "30 Rock," "Project Runway," "Charmed," "Joey," "Third Watch," "Beverly Hills, 90210," "Days of Our Lives," "Melrose Place," "General Hospital," "Just Shoot Me" and "Ally McBeal," among others.

Although she maintains a busy work schedule, Nancy regularly makes time for philanthropic endeavors. The Muscular Dystrophy Association, American Red Cross, March of Dimes, Best Buddies and Childhelp USA have all benefited from her time and efforts. She resides in Los Angeles with her husband, Keith, their daughter, Ashby, and two stepsons, Tyler and Carson. She teams with Tony Dovolani, who returns for his seventh season.
DENISE RICHARDS — Known for her roles in films such as "Wild Things" and "Starship Troopers," Denise Richards got her start as a fashion model before making her way into television and movies. She was cast as Bond girl and geo-physicist Christmas Jones in the 1999 James Bond film, "The World Is Not Enough," as well as appearing in films such as "Drop Dead Gorgeous," "Undercover Brother" and "Scary Movie 3." In addition to her film work, Denise has made regular appearances in the comedies "Spin City," "Two and a Half Men," "Friends" and "Seinfeld." She is currently working on the second season of her own reality television show, "Denise Richards: It's Complicated," airing on E! Entertainment Television. She teams with Maksim Chmerkovskiy, who returns for his sixth season.
LAWRENCE TAYLOR — Widely regarded as the greatest defensive player in the history of the National Football League, Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor rewrote the record book and built a legendary following during one of the most storied careers in the history of American sport. He spent his entire career with the New York Giants, leading them to two Super Bowl titles. He was the first player in history to be selected to the Pro Bowl in ten consecutive seasons. He was also a unanimous selection to the NFL's 75th Anniversary team, which honored the top players in the history of the game, was the NFL's Rookie of the Year in 1981, Most Valuable Player in 1986, and was the three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year. Lawrence was inducted into the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility in 1999. "LT" has written two bestselling books ("Living on the Edge" and "Over The Edge"), has appeared in feature films (including "Any Given Sunday," "The Waterboy" and "Shaft") and is an avid golfer and philanthropist. He teams with Edyta Sliwinska, who is the only pro to compete in all eight seasons of "Dancing with the Stars."
CHUCK WICKS — A gifted songwriter and vocalist, Chuck Wicks made a compelling impression with his Top 5 smash, "Stealing Cinderella," the fastest-rising single by a debut country act in 2007. By the time his first album, "Starting Now" (RCA Nashville), was released in January 2008, he had begun a year-long, 750,000 fan-packed tour opening for superstar Brad Paisley. Chuck co-penned 10 of the 11 songs on his debut CD, including his second hit, "All I Ever Wanted," and the new single, "Man of the House," a touching story-song about a boy taking on beyond-his-years responsibilities while his father is on military assignment.

"The Woz," helped shape the computer industry with his design of Apple's first line of products, the Apple I and II, and influenced the popular Macintosh. After leaving Apple Computer Inc. in 1985, he was involved in various business and philanthropic ventures, focusing primarily on computer capabilities in schools and stressing hands-on learning and encouraging creativity for students. In 2000 Steve was inducted into the Inventors Hall of Fame and was awarded the prestigious Heinz Award for Technology, The Economy and Employment. He is also a published author with the release in 2006 of his New York Times best-selling autobiography, "iWoz: From Computer Geek to Cult Icon."

The New Bern-Craven County Public Library hosts its Artist of the Month reception tonight for E. Lee Hood.
The New Bern-Craven County Public Library hosts its Artist of the Month reception tonight for E. Lee Hood.
The 7 p.m. public event features the opening monthlong November exhibit for Army veteran Hood, who does oils, acrylics, pastels, pencil, pen and ink and computer art.
�Art has and is a life-time journey. I am a self-taught artist who chose the military verses art school,� Hood said. �Within my 29 years service in the Army I continued to explore the world of art. I found many media fascinating and worked to learn them. I now have a grasp the knowledge in graphite, coloring pencil, pastels, oils and acrylics. I have not found a favorite subject, but enjoy pleasing people by adjusting according to my surroundings. Throughout my travels � foreign and domestic � I gained a great deal of exposure from other artists willing to share techniques here and there or just a suggestion which would improve my work.�
�Saturday Afternoon at the Movies� features �Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.� The film follows a group of British retirees who decide to outsource� their retirement to less expensive and seemingly exotic India. Though the new environment is less luxurious than imagined, they are forever transformed by their shared experiences, discovering that life and love can begin again when you let go of the past.
The movie, rated PG-13, is shown free to the public. Popcorn and lemonade will be served in the Hayden H. Jones Auditorium, beginning at 2:15 p.m.
On Monday, there is another of the �Let�s Talk About It � Affirming Aging� Book Discussion series. The series wraps up with this session�s featured novel �Crossing to Safety,� by Wallace Stegner.
The discussion will be led by visiting scholar Willie Nelms, retired, Sheppard Library. Advanced registration is required. This program is made possible by funding from the NC Humanities Council. It will be held in the Hayden H. Jones Auditorium at 7 p.m.
On Nov. 12, the library will be closed in honor of Veterans Day.
A �Lunch �n Learn � Introduction to Knitting� is Nov. 13, with Jan Beech.
Samples of knitted garments and yarn will be on display. And, if there is enough interest, she will set up knitting classes at the library. Bring a brown bag lunch. Beverages and desserts will be served in the Hayden H. Jones Auditorium for the noon event.

HICKORY � When then-Duke University coach Fred Goldsmith came to speak to Chris Coleman and his Crest High teammates after the Chargers had won its first state football championship in 1994, Goldsmith was hopeful Coleman might eventually follow him to Durham.
Goldsmith didn�t get his wish then as Coleman went to N.C. State and played against Goldsmith�s Blue Devils� teams.
But Goldsmith did finally get Coleman to join his coaching staff at Lenoir-Rhyne University � 16 years later.
Goldsmith retired two years ago, turning the program over to his hand-picked successor, Mike Houston, and Coleman has continued helping Goldsmith�s efforts to return the Bears� program to greatness.
Last week, L-R went a long way toward defending the South Atlantic Conference title it won last year in last Saturday�s 34-21 come-from-behind home victory over Mars Hill. The Bears (5-2, 3-1) visit Wingate (5-3, 4-1) this Saturday at 1:30 p.m. and Mars Hill (5-3, 4-1) also remains in the title picture.
�When I first got out of football, I immediately started working in real estate� in Charlotte, said Coleman, who became Crest�s first NFL player when he played for the Tennessee Titans in 2000. �But I always had it in the back of my mind that I wanted to coach. I called coach Goldsmith one day and I ended up being a fulltime assistant coach when he had some staff changes.�
Now, as a record-setting receiver at both Crest and N.C. State � he remains the Chargers� all-time leading receiver (128 catches) and is 10th all-time at N.C. State (122 catches) � Coleman became the wide receivers coach for a team that doesn�t feature passing.
L-R runs the triple option offense that highlights the running game and infrequently passes.
�It�s typically not the first choice of a wide receiver to coach this,� Coleman said with a chuckle. �But I�ve bought in to this. I love this offense.�
The Bears went 7-3 and shared the South Atlantic Conference title with Mars Hill last season � the school�s first league title since 1994 and only the fourth since L-R won or shared 14 of 18 Conference Carolinas titles from 1951-68.
�It�s tough for me to say what�s been done differently because I wasn�t here,� Coleman said of the rebuilding efforts of three coaches before last year�s league title-winning season. �From what I hear, the culture has changed completely. People think we can win and it starts in the weight room and continues on with what coach Houston has done with the foundation coach Goldsmith had built.�
With the chance for the second straight league title, what are Coleman�s coaching aspirations?
�I think college coaching is the career path for me,� Coleman said. �Where this thing will lead, I can�t really say. But we�ve got a great group of kids and I enjoy being here.�

Texas Sophomore
40: 4.43
PROS: Has excellent speed and range to make plays all over the field. Has good ball skills and has the burst to make plays on the ball when he keeps things in front of him. Can read the quarterback and make the big play. Closes quickly on the ball and ballcarrier and can deliver a hit. Does a nice job cutting a runner's legs in the open field. Has good burst upfield and can make plays in the box, filling the hole. Has good hips and burst to match up in man coverage and can cover tight ends and slot receivers.
CONS: Is undersized and needs to do a better job wrapping up vs. the run. Not as good at the point of attack and doesn't always break down in space. Will take some poor angles to the ball and get caught up in traffic in the box. Relies a lot on his speed to cover up many of his mistakes.
OVERVIEW: Thomas is a fast, rangy playmaker that seems to be always poised to make a big play in a big game. He's undersized for a safety, but makes up for it with his speed, burst, and ball skills. Started both years at strong safety and combined for 149 tackles, 8 tackles for loss, 10 picks, 43 passes defended, and 5 forced fumbles. Had 8 picks this past year and 24 passes defended.
NFL FORECAST: Thomas reminds me a lot of Louis Delmas in terms of his ability to play the run. He's undersized and it'll show at times, and can have some issues at the point of attack because he doesn't always wrap up. But for the most part, his closing burst and hitting potential will mean he'll make most tackles. The difference between him and Delmas is that he is so much more polished in coverage and works very well in centerfield. He has the potential to be an elite safety because of that ability to make plays in coverage. His speed and range are outstanding and will allow him to make plays on a level with Ed Reed. He can play corner because he has the hips and burst to do so, but will be better in a scheme that likes to play a lot of press coverage and zone. And I don't think he'll make the immediate impact at corner like he would as a free safety for most teams. He can start right away in a league as a ball-hawking free safety. He'll make his share of mistakes, but you'll see him start to iron out the kinks by his second year.
ATL FORECAST: Thomas is an upgrade for the Falcons in the secondary at free safety. His ability to make plays in coverage is superior to that of DeCoud's and his teaming with Moore could potentially give the Falcons the rangiest pair of safeties in the league, and any concerns about their pass defense would probably evaporate. Thomas could also potential work as a slot corner, which would allow DeCoud to still get work, but if he was drafted purely to play cornerback, I wouldn't be as high on his chances there as other corners available later in the draft. He could work there, but probably only as a nickel guy the first few years in the league, and not sure he'll eventually develop into the caliber of starting corner that the Falcons need opposite Robinson. But one could potentially draw comparisons to Rashean Mathis, who succeeded under Smith in Jacksonville.
VALUE: As a safety, Thomas is a Top 15 talent that for a team looking for a ball-hawking free safety can take in the Top 10. As a corner, I think while he has potential, he's not as polished there so I would wait until the middle of the second round.
1-poor, 2-weak, 3-above average, 4-very good, 5-elite

History of the City Planning Department
The Early Years
Sarnia's civic interest and participation in provincial town planning initiatives date back to at least 1912. Formalized town planning in Sarnia was originally proposed in the early 1930s by Dr. R.K. Stratford, founder of the Research Department at Imperial Oil. In 1940, Mayor John T. Barnes was authorized by City Council to create a City Planning Commission to make plans for a long-term program of city improvements.
1941 - Elements of a City Plan
In 1941, a master plan Elements of a City Plan outlined a long-term vision for the City. The Plan was prepared by Norman B. Wilson, designer of the original Toronto subway and opponent of the Gardiner Expressway. Its recommendations included expanding the City municipal boundary to Indian Road, the development of a green preserve along the City's future boundary, the waterfront park system, the protection of stable neighbourhoods, and warned against the health and aesthetic consequences of creating a built environment to serve the automobile.
1950 - Fringe Growth and Rural Health
In 1950, O.K. Milliken, Reeve of Sarnia Township, presented to the Association of Assessing Officers of Ontario on the ills of fringe growth for the Township and its impact on rural health. He promoted orderly, serviced development and the preservation of good farmland. To accommodate rapid growth, the City of Sarnia annexed areas north and west of the existing urban area in 1951. This extended the boundary from East Street to Murphy Road and from Exmouth Street to Lake Huron. One year later, the Township passed a restrictive zoning by-law which sought to limit severances and control fringe development outside of the new urban boundary.
1953 - Establishment of the Planning Department
In 1953, the City established the Planning Department and hired John Legate from the Town of Westmount, Quebec as the City's first Planning Director. The department has provided professional land use advice to City Council ever since.
1954 - Planning Advisory Board
In 1954, the City Planning Commission voted its dissolution. It recommended to Council that it should be reconstituted as a 9 member advisory board to the newly formed professional Planning Department. The Commission recommended that appointees should not represent any group, such as the Real Estate Board, but should be unaffiliated and speak for the city as a whole.
1955 - First Zoning By-law
In 1955, the City of Sarnia implemented its first zoning by-law. The Sarnia and Suburban Planning Board was formed and served to hear planning applications and provide recommendations to Council. During this period, the Planning Department coordinated the successful relocation of the Bluewater neighbourhood, and opposed commercial expansion.
1957 - First Inter-jurisdictional meeting to discuss regional concerns
In 1957, the first inter-jurisdictional meeting was held to consider regional planning concerns. The City of Sarnia, Village of Point Edward and Townships of Sarnia and Moore were in attendance. Two years later, the St. Clair District Planning Board was formed to provide a regional forum for planning issues.
1962 - New Official Plan
In 1962, after three years of research and study, the City of Sarnia adopted a new Official Plan. The Plan was finally approved by the Province of Ontario in 1965. A focus on efficient development, urban regeneration and a detailed traffic plan were key elements of the Plan.
1970 - Retirement of John Legate
In 1970, John Legate retired as Planning Director after 17 years, and was succeeded by Ray Jenkins.
During this period, urban growth had reached the Indian Road boundary and insufficient servicing on fringe lots in Sarnia Township was causing concern. The City attempted to annex the western portion of the former Township to Modeland Road, a bid which failed after a contested Ontario Municipal Board hearing between the two municipalities. In response, the Township developed its own Official Plan to accommodate growth in 1971, and established its own Planning Department in 1975. After 1970, the urban area doubled with the majority of urban expansion occurring in Sarnia Township, which prepared a new more detailed Official Plan by 1985. The role of the Township Planning Department focused on the development of infrastructure to support new development.
1974 - Supervision of Building Department transferred to Planning Department
In 1974, supervision of the City Building Department was transferred to the Planning Department and the joint department renamed the Community Planning and Development Department. It later became Community Planning and Renewal. A new Official Plan was prepared in the City in 1979. This period was characterized by the delivery of neighbourhood improvement programs and the management of urban renewal projects. These included the waterfront park system and various downtown land assemblies.
1991 - Amalgamation
Upon amalgamation in 1991, the Sarnia Community Planning and Renewal Department was merged with the Clearwater (formerly Sarnia Township) Planning and Economic Development Department. The amalgamated Planning and Development Department maintained a Planning Department that was divided into two sections; policy and development planning. In 1994, the City underwent a major reorganization that included the elimination of the policy section and a substantial reduction in staff.
1994 - Planning Advisory Committee
In 1994, the Sarnia Planning Board constituted under the Planning Act and successor to the Sarnia and Suburban Planning Board, was disbanded and replaced with the Planning Advisory Committee (PAC). While the Planning Board heard development applications prior to Council consideration, the PAC is an appointed citizen committee that advises Council on planning matters and works with Planning Department staff on a range of activities. The PAC participated in the development of a unified Official Plan that was prepared in 2001.
Present Day
The City Planning Department is currently part of the City of Sarnia Planning and Building Department with the Planning Director also responsible for oversight of the City's Building and Property Standards activities. The Planning department provides a variety of long-range and development planning services. In addition to development review, the Department undertakes research and policy development and is involved in several community initiatives to improve the quality of life of residents.

South Dakota DOT Reveals Spearfish I-90 Exit Plan
SPEARFISH, S.D. (AP) - Transportation officials say an $18 million reconstruction of Spearfish's main Interstate 90 exit could take up to 20 months to complete.
The Black Hills Pioneer reports that construction on the Exit 14 interchange is slated to begin in 2015. Officials revealed their preliminary design this week.
Engineering Supervisor Karen Olson says the design is a result of meetings held when the project was initiated in 2009.
Officials collected data on traffic volume and operations, finding that 66 accidents have occurred at the exit in the last four years. The study found insufficient distance between each signalized ramp intersection and no safe pedestrian connections.
Changes include lowering I-90 by 3 feet to improve sight distance, adding more 27th Street lanes and building a 10 foot wide pedestrian and bike path.
