No I'm boring you know the White House unveiling a new form for students to help them understand just how much -- they'll be racking up.
-- a -- Washington's racking up where the form for this.
Hi everyone I'm Tracy -- in for Cheryl Casone welcome to cashing in fat cats in previous week Wayne Rogers down than hunting down -- -- and joining us from the Fox Business Network.
Melissa Francis of course from Economic Policy Institute Kristen Dorsey.
Welcome everybody all right Melissa iron.
Me here on the White House is no before you know form now.
How ridiculous is this an -- of the of the giant Xerox machine a whole bunch of papers sitting next to it.
They need to Xerox -- this bad boy and handed out to everyone in congress they've got to calculate what bail on everything they built for -- that be great prep for students.
This is a fantastic idea I think they should also have to calculate whether or not going to be able to pay it back -- -- proved that they know what the average income is in the field but they're going in and see if they can really afford to pay off this debt right.
But we you know this is certainly not gonna solve our one trillion dollar student debt problem is it -- out of form of -- couple little slots.
Not only did not notice on the did you see the form I mean he got you can carry a moron not did yeah I mean it's got fifteen plates it's like do and yes or no -- -- -- -- -- people who -- going to college but -- -- I mean you'd be you know you have to be blind not to be able to -- this one -- of course the congress is -- though they can't they can't -- And it's full of its -- some of these dumb questions you know can I do this could you do that can you pay this.
Promised crazy if you can't pay back ecology shouldn't be doing it in the first place and by the way there are a lot of scholarships out there that go begging.
It -- people don't qualify for -- so if you qualify for you get -- a good school bully me.
-- we have this national debt I -- up 143%.
From the end of 2010 to the end of march this year.
And they're handing out a form for -- expenses.
Of someone how can you criticize something that is the most important tool there's been given to students and families so that they can understand the true costs of what a higher -- We'll bring them up.
I mean this is the only thing.
That has been done that I call in recent memories actually assist families in making this very important decision -- the way to -- by the way everybody.
Congress knows full well the implications of everything that it does legislatively.
Everything escort from the congress and -- -- This by Christian -- -- off to perform the wrong way.
Chris in a lot of -- Giggling in the background and just got to point out though that -- loan debt about 275%.
From the end of 2010 to the end of march this year so.
Student -- a big deal -- -- that a student loans that government has incentivized.
And created -- -- Tracy this is hilarious thing in Christian the fact that you think that.
This one -- literally no joke it took three arms of government to come up with.
This one reform it's not even print on both sides and -- -- -- one -- form the White House the department of education and the CF peavy would testify and be hundred.
Million dollar budget I mean any -- -- -- lemonade stand to wait I don't.
Really how -- all -- -- again a look I want problem in this country right now if it's brilliant color problems student debt we've got to let our let her let's let's I don't.
Let's get sadly sealed in here right now and it and student loan debt -- 275%.
From the beginning of 2003.
Tune -- -- these kids do need some help but it is quite ironic that the government is issuing a form.
Christian is right -- this is a major problem in our economy right now -- student loan debt but.
-- -- I got -- collision with congress knows full well.
You can stop right there congress does not know full well what monogamy is good to -- but I wouldn't have -- Tiger Woods and Paris Hilton endorsing it OK I think that's an.
Senator that we got right here and -- that.
You're right well is the machine but good luck these guys are about to go on a fight week -- -- -- and I did.
I say an hour battery pack before they leave Washington tell they can't come back analysts they've finished their homework.
In free market -- consumers are very smooth Smart and -- rational they shop round they get value for value the problem is as -- in education as we've talked about for months.
It's anything but a free market -- -- stunts like this for the president his goal is not to free education to make it more competitive is to instigate more government control the yeah.
-- votes.
-- -- -- -- the did you appoint that you know what the government is supposed to help people understand things so you can argue they're doing the right thing.
Well absolutely and Jonathan you just brought it up in a free market people need to be informed and that's exactly what the -- -- if you actually isn't ready bring -- -- shooting in Indochina and -- -- -- -- free mark against it allows students to compare.
The awards across colleges so that they're on form that's all.
-- -- there's no I'm not gonna get past them to say how much they think they're gonna make at the end of the day and that's the biggest problem is that students have unrealistic expectations -- what they think that's -- as we headed.
I went back out and they -- the problem of course though is.
-- never puts out a one page sheet for itself -- -- Christian when you say congress knows exactly what they're doing listen -- and.
In the Dodd-Frank bill was 2200.
Pages long but never -- dog bank.
The obamacare is 2800 pages all they worry that they put out a one page long.
What these -- of -- -- they don't even -- that they have no idea what they're doing you're talking about an IQ of about minus sixteen and that's.
-- -- 35 people combined.
Don't tell me they know what they're doing they don't.
No -- what I said was congress knows the implications of everything that they do every decision that they make is scored on its yeah.
I'd say get money were not from the -- they're not I don't -- -- has been donated to him.
Dress up your -- battle here my -- there is no.
You could have -- this congress you're Smart man yeah man behind me aren't you article -- about the -- was student loans right now kids need to learn what the have a student -- how -- -- and oh this is like a possible problem -- students get out of what all the -- loans you have to create more -- a student loan -- and it is the problem and.
-- -- -- The fundamental issue here is second on this Melissa yeah I think you are kind of siding with Christian and not you know what this it might you know one good thing we've seen -- -- congress in a long time.
Seven director accidentally at least break down what you gonna go at the end of the acting what are the biggest problems is kids don't understand that there is a bill coming after all this what it's gonna be per month they have to decide rationally if they're gonna be able to paint if they want to be saddled with bad debt no one else is gonna pay it for them.
And if they default that's gonna somehow come back to the taxpayer.
I can't afford it they need to realistically understand what they might make when they graduate -- on what they're -- what.
Are gonna I think have a lot of and that's the only supposed to help bump please give me a great idea favourite browser problem -- -- yet.
But the problem I think Dwyane and everybody's -- -- -- this is that when you do -- family budget you do this I do it on the back of the napkin after breakfast but we do it right and why did the government doing it John a pair them so they.
Put out you play.
The because their purpose is to evade the reality -- instigate more government control or health care and certainly over education.
I mean I disagree this whole premise that people are so stupid the but when they buy an education.
They're not that stable when they buy a car or an iPhone if they need government to tell them how to -- for -- the reason we have -- still -- probably guys keep talking about is -- -- government is incentivizing.
Those still -- by evading reality in the president's and the worst of this he wants to -- student loans.
Are unusually short abnormally.
Low in price and of course pushes up the cost and that's the trillion dollars in student loan debt.
You know outweighing quickly -- you -- of them brought this up.
Free market Amazon -- example you go around -- hunt for the right price then you go to the the best place to -- it.
People do this kind of stuff and maybe that's what we should be doing as well with -- need we don't need this.
Well look I have half -- of that -- and -- that wouldn't be a need for commercial colleges and commercial gets they have ads on television all the time about you know going to various schools and getting a degree or whatever it might be.
If there was competition out there for the all of that and they are he has you wouldn't maybe half of this stuff I mean this is it this is a joke when you when you're saying that you've got.
I agree that everybody should try to get a college education if you qualify for -- you don't need a federal form that one page along made out by some more on in congress to like what.
Written or me and yeah now we're set up for good -- -- -- -- some MRI and did you.

Do you hear the people sing lost in the valley of the night?
It is the music of a people who are climbing to the light.
For the wretched of the earth, there is a flame that never dies.
Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.

Adult Excerpt:
Droplets of water dripped over Irina's neck and down between her breasts. The thin white tank top and cotton sports bra turned translucent beneath the sudden rainstorm.
Irina stood and lifted her braid of auburn hair, squeezing water from the thick rope before letting it fall limply against her neck. Picking up her now soaking bag and snake stick, she turned to find Javier's hot gaze on her breasts.
Irina glanced down to see her hard nipples pointed against the thin fabric, the darker circles of her areolas visible. "Shouldn't let yourself get distracted," she said with a half smile.
Javier shifted his stance in a way that made Irina wonder if he sported a hard-on. Thinking about her tall, muscled Hispanic mentor with his thick cock engorged with blood made her mouth and her pussy water.
"Maybe we should find some cover." Javier gestured to the sky. "No snake is going to be out in this weather. They're holed up in burrows or hiding in trees."
Irina nodded and turned toward a grove of close-knit cypress trees. The bromeliads beneath would provide some cushion, and hopefully the intertwined branches would stop the worst of the rain. Then they could get out there again and look for that python.
A new warehouse on the western edge of Miami had hired them. Two African Rock Pythons had been sighted, and the aggressive constrictors needed to be captured before they reproduced.
She leaned against the tree and squeezed her thighs together. Damn, she was so horny even thinking about snake sex had her aching. Pulling a water bottle from its holster on her belt, she took a long drink. When she lowered the bottle, Javier stood directly in front of her.
She gasped. Her fingers opened and the bottle tumbled with a soft thud at her feet. His big hand cupped the side of her breast, fingers perilously close to her hard nipple. She glanced down to see where he touched her, heat burning into her from his hand. She shivered.
"You're chilled. Dry off before you catch a cold."
"It's still raining," she replied, her voice no more than a whisper. The urge to squirm, to shrug her shoulder and bring his fingers closer to her nipple shuddered through her. Unable to stop herself, she reached out and pulled at the damp fabric of his shirt. "And I'm not the only one who's wet."
Javier groaned. His fingers brushed across her hard nipple and he leaned in to captured her mouth. A hard kiss, not asking, demanding, taking advantage of her gasp to thrust his tongue in.
Irina melted against him. Water, snakes, even the tree she leaned against faded away as the object of her fantasies made them come true. She opened for him, spreading her legs. When he moved closer, his cock pressing against her stomach, she hooked an ankle around the back of his calf. A moan escaped her. She kissed him again, drawing her tongue along the length of his, demanding he fill her mouth.

Great breakfast!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Met my needs"
Room was good- no complaints, breakfast was good, plenty of seating. Off highway location was convenient. The only thing I noticed was a sofa with a tear in it in the breakfast area- marred the otherwise satisfying appearance of the room.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
When I first walked into the room I honest thought I walked into a five star hotel! Room was very nice and clean, I recommend this hotel to anyoneGenuine Hotels.com guest review
This was a clean comfortable room for a good price. The breakfast waffles were good. We only stayed 1 night and we got in late and left early for a volleyball tournament.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
I had a great stay. I will definitely be back!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
very niceGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice stay"
My parents and I stayed at the Comfort Inn the night before my dad's early morning surgery at an Indy hospital. We were treated very well and the room had all you could want in an affordable place to stay. The room was clean, the bathroom and shower were nice and the motel was quiet (granted, it was a Monday night). Fast food restaurants and Denny's, […] plus Walmart and gas stations nearby for basics. When the surgery went well, we booked a second night and went back to the Comfort Inn to get some rest because we didn't find anything better. Continental breakfast wasn't the best I've seen but it was free and an OK trade-off for everything else that was positive about it. I would definitely recommend it for people - especially when the I-65 detour gets opened up. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very Friendly"
The hotel was nice and all the staff was very friendlyGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Best economy stay I ever had with comfortable bed, quiet room, and all the extras of a much fancier stay, including breakfast bar with waffle maker. Lobby and room were emaculate.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice Stay for the Value"
Clean, helpful, easy to access on drive to Cincy.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Quiet, clean. A working trip so it was perfect. Near to U. of Indy, but not much else.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Nice staff, excellent breakfast, pool was small, but fun for kids, and room was very nicely decorated.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel close to downtown"
Friendly staff, clean and comfortable room. This was a nice stay close to downtown.Genuine Expedia guest review
"online images look idealistic"
The images of the pool, rooms and halls look very nice online. In reality the pool is very very small. The halls look 40 years old with very old carpet and wallpaper. The rooms look nice and clean which was good.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Nice stayGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Musty smell in our room. Seemed outdated."
Hotel staff was awesome and very helpful. Great continental breakfast!Genuine Expedia guest review
"No place to hang my hat"
Decent room with lots of power outlets. But there was no "closet", no hanging rack. Thats not good if you want to have a workout and dry your gear.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"staff manager rude"
There were three of a us total in the room, and I had asked the front desk for three extra towels. The purpose of me asking was to be able to use it in my car for the ride back to the hotel after having done the Color Run (I did not want colored chalk all over my car). The hotel manager was very hesitant to release these towels to me. First, he asked […] what room we were staying in, and how many guests in the room. Secondly, he asked if the towels in the room were not enough. After being reluctant to release the towels, my friends and I walked out of the hotel with the three towels in our hands. The hotel manager chased us out of the hotel and demanded that we give the towels back as you are not allowed to leave the hotel with them. I told them I would return it once we come back to check out, and he did not allow this. He then said that he would charge $100 for towels. I told him there was a reason for him having my credit card information, in case of incidentals. He was extremely rude about the whole situation. I have never had an issue with taking the towels out of the hotel. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"not to far from downtown indianapolis"
overall my stay was okay, when we checked into the room right next to the floor lamp was a small childs t-shirt on the floor, the air conditioner needs to be updated it got cool in the room after several hours, but i had read others comments about this hotel before i booked it, for the cost compared to other hotels it was a good deal, the breakfast […] they offered was just horrible, the eggs,sausage,ham was just nasty i had to just throw it all away and just have a bowl of cereal, the crock pot was sitting on the counter empty all other comfort inn's have biskets and gravey and the owners of the hotel were there, they are a family, the older man seemed creepy, several times he just stood there staring at us and never said a word, as the young son, i would think if you are the owner and running the place you should welcome everyone when you see them or at the very least say hi......again the free breakfast was just horrible they need to get real eggs,sausages,ham..... go to the denny's that out front of the property. but overal we stayed here for the cost..........

"Nice hotel right off of i65"
I have no complaints whatsoever about this hotel. Staff was nice and helpful, room was clean, beds were comfortable and the hotel is located right off of i65. There is a gas station across the street and a Denny's next door. Great hotel.Genuine Expedia guest review
Air conditioner did not work very well also the shower quality was poorGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"It was ok"
The air conditioning did not work. It was clean and basic. Not the greatest location.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Bypass this one"
The first room was labeled as non-smoking, but clearly smelled of smoke and had a cigarette burn in the bedspread. The air conditioning did not work well, either. So we were "upgraded" to a different room . The desk clerk said she knew we would enjoy the jacuzzi tub in this new room. We may have, but the black mold surrounding the tub led us to forego […] even showering in it. Free breakfast was stale cereal, oatmeal in packets, and cold coffee. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"In the middle of no where"
No decent restaurants in close proximity. It's in a run down area. It was convenient to the interstate. Farther from the Indiana Convention Center than indicated. Must have POV or a rental if you select to stay at this location.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"clean room"
stay was fine breakfast lacked but not a big eater anywayGenuine Expedia guest review
"nice hotel close to Festival 500"

"Not bad, nothing special"
It was fine for an overnight to our destination. Breakfast was decent. Rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Convenient to downtown Indy"
The Hotel was clean and convenient to downtown Indy. The breakfast was not very good. Not much to choose from, but I know the hotel was in the midst of switching owners so that could be why.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Horrible Experience"
Could not believe the management at this hotel. We checked in on a friday night and overnight the ENTIRE staff left to begin work at a new hotel. There was absolutely NO staff!! The police came to help with guest checking out in the morning. The hotel was complete booked and very busy. Will never stay at this hotel again!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Clean but not for longterm stay"
Room is clean, though a little small at this price. Internet was slow. No frig in the room. Walls are thin, can hear baby crying until midnight. Breakfast is ok.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Well worth the price."
Looking for a reasonably priced hotel for a quick stop on the way to our final destination. This hotel served our needs well. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff was friendly and check in/out was quick and easy. Location was perfect, right off the highway. Would definately stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"comfort inn on national street Indy"
The lobby and pool area are up-to-date. Once off the elevator heading to the room it was apparent things were a little aged. The chairs and foot rest had stains and the window seals had dirt and grime build up. The bathroom was very clean and the shower had plenty of pressure. Overall I was happy with the room and price.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice hotel for the price."
The hotel was clean & updated, breakfast was decent, there was always a pot of coffee on...and the staff was very friendly! Our trip took us downtown everyday, and it was a short drive, but staying downtown would have made things easier on us...overall, this hotel was worth the price!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not a bad stay"
The room was clean. I wish there were heavier curtains on the window. The light from the building next door was pretty bright through the sheers and I'm not entirely convinced that you couldn't see in at night. Bathroom was clean. Bed was nice though I wish they would wash the blanket along with the sheets after each customer.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Will stay here again next year - On Wisconsin!"
Hotel was clean, beds comfortable and employees very friendly. The breakfast was also very good - eggs and sausage one morning and biscuits and gravy the next. Breakfast also included the usual waffles, cereal, bread, etc. Easy on/off interstate, only 5 minutes from Lucas Oil Stadium.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Indy for ISSMA State Marching Band finals"
Hotel was very easy to find & location of the hotel is very close to Lucas Oil Stadium - easily less than 10 min. Hotel staff was very friendly & accomodating. We had a very late check in (after 10PM) and we still got the room we had reserved (2-bed, non-smoking). Check-out was quick - just handed the guy the card & he said, "Have a good day" & we left. […] Other positive is that there is a Denny's practically in the parking lot. So awesome! Breakfast was typical hotel fair, so it was nice to get a good breakfast at Denny's. I can think of only 2 not-so-good things. One is that we had problems with the WiFi. We would connect, but it would be slow then we'd get kicked off. We didn't bother asking for help. The other is that a corner of the bathroom floor was rather dirty and it looked like maybe there had been some water damage on the wall in that corner. But we all got a good night's sleep and that what counted. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Hotel near downtown Indy."
This Comfort Inn is a great value. It's only minutes from downtown Indianapolis. The hotel is clean and comfortable. It offers amenities you would expect at a higher price. The front desk personnel couldn't have been more accommodating. I would highly recommend this hotel if you are staying in the Indianapolis area. Also, there is a Denny's in front […] of the hotel. We hadn't eaten at a Denny's in quite some time. It was excellent. The menu and quality far exceeded my expectations. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Not a well kept hotel"
This hotel property needs some serious cleaning. Stained carpets, bathroom tile was gross. Some bathroom fixtures not attached to the wall. The staff were friendly but the hotel is not one I would recommend.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Clean, quiet, adequate room"
Only stayed one night, but the room and stay were fine. Staff was friendly, the bed was comfortable, and, most of all, the room was quiet and clean. Breakfast was adequate.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"nothing to say."
Staff were kind. But. I asked front deck to fix my windows and bath tub at least 2 times, and she assured they would. I stayed there for 2 nights and they never came to my room. Bottom line, I was ignored with smile.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"nice employees & complimentary food"
The employees were very friendly and accommodating, and they offered complimentary snacks and drinks in the early evening of my stay. The building is an older style, but decent with updated finishes and furniture.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Very clean. Nicely decorated.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"great for families and singles"
the staff were all very friendly and helpful we were close to things including the hospital districtGenuine Expedia guest review
"Nice Hotel for Anyone"
Stayed for the Jacksonville vs Indy game, it was only 5 maybe 10min with traffic from the stadium. The hotel was clean and the people were very friendly! The only bad thing is the pool was closed when we checked in for some reason.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Keep looking"
A bit worn and tattered. It was an okay place to spend the night, but I wouldn't go back.Genuine Expedia guest review

I was thinking of buying a vest and fitting it inside my wetsuit for additional warmth.
However, I pulled up the oneil site and noticed they carry thermal rash guards. Have any of you tried one or similar?
The one they call thermal is 8oz, the thicker ones I own are 6oz. My other rash guards, if I had to guess, seem like 2oz or 3oz by comparison.
What do you use for additional warmth under your wettie?

Investors have been largely focused on the progress at Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd. over the past year, but it may be time to shift their attention away to its larger rival, Canadian National Railway Co.
A pipeline of growth opportunities and recent market share gains led to an upgrade of CN's shares Monday to an outperform rating by Walter Spracklin, RBC Capital Markets analyst.
"The end-to-end supply chain approach has enhanced CNR's relationship with key stakeholders and improved network fluidity, helping shippers compete in their own markets and supporting organic growth across CNR's franchise," he said in a note to clients. "Reliable service has also attracted new customers."
He noted CN has won four new customers away from rival, CP Rail, in recent months including APL and MOL this year and Chrysler and OOCL in 2014.
He said Chrysler and OOCL alone would likely be worth about $140-million in annual revenue starting next year.
CP said Monday it has made a conscientious decision to maintain pricing discipline on several contract renewals as part of its restructuring.
"We are building a premium service and its our railway's approach to not pursue volume with price," said Ed Greenberg, CP spokesman.
But Mr. Spracklin said it wasn't a matter of pricing that lost CP the work.
"Importantly, management emphasized that CNR was not awarded these intermodal contracts based on price — service and geographic reach were the primary factors in each carrier's decision to switch rail providers," Mr. Spracklin said. "Specifically, the intermodal customers valued the speed and efficiency of CNR's service offering, and its strong network access into the U.S. was a secondary motivation to sign with CNR."
As a result, he said he expects to see CN deliver industry-leading revenue growth over the next two years of roughly 6.5% annually, and double-digit earnings per share growth over the same period.
Mr. Spracklin raised his price target on CN to $120 a share, from $99 previously, alongside the upgrade as he rolled his estimates forward to 2015.
Jacob Bout, CIBC World Markets analyst, said he believed there was also room for CN to hike its dividend in January. The railway typically targets a payout ratio of about 30%, which would infer, based on his current estimates, that a 25% hike to its annual dividend was possible to about $2.15 a share, from $1.72 currently.
Mr. Bout has a sector performer rating on CN and a $110 price target on its shares.
Meanwhile, Mr. Spracklin also rolled back his earnings expectations for CP during the third quarter as volume growth decelerated at the railway from 10% in the first half of 2013 to just 0.7% in the third quarter.
He said he was now expecting earnings of $1.69 a share, down from $1.75 previously,, and below analysts' average estimate of $1.73 share for the quarter.
Both CN and CP are expected to deliver their third-quarter results in two weeks.
"While we expect positive mix to mitigate weaker volumes, we do not expect yield growth to entirely offset the negative impact of slower volume," Mr. Spracklin said.
He raised his price target on CP to $116 a share, from $105 previously, but urged investors to continue to exercise caution.
He kept his underperform rating on the stock.
"The key message here is that we consider the significant deceleration in volumes at CP to be at odds with the premium valuation that is being awarded the shares, and we continue to highlight the revenue trend as the key risk to CP's multiple," he said.

Anna Kournikova Shows Off Bikini Bod For Maxim Australia
She excelled at tennis at a very young age and his since landed herself a partner in heartthrob singer Enrique Iglesias, and now Anna Kournikova brings her hotness to a feature in the September 2012 issue of Maxim Australia.
The 31-year-old Russian beauty strapped on skimpy, skin-baring swimwear for the Jeff Olson shot summertime sexy spread lining the Land Down Under's magazine pages.
Meanwhile, a few of the highlights from Miss Kournikova's spotlight column are as follows:
On how we can know that she isn't a sexy Russian spy:
"I am for peace and truth and honesty, and I don't think I could keep my cover up if I were a spy. I tend to give too many things away with my eyes. Having said that... maybe i am!"
On whether she's still a big sports fan:
"Yeah, I follow soccer, and I love the Miami heat, since they're my home team. When Lebron [James] made his decision there was definitely a lot of celebrating."
On if she agrees with Serena Williams being named the best female tennis player ever by Sports Illustrated:
"That so hard! Obviously you can't forget people like Martina Navratilova and Steffi Graf. When I beat Steffi, I was the happiest person in the world. I was like, 'I can't believe this is happening to me and I'm only 16 years old!' But what Serena has achieved, being up there for so long, she's probably the best. She's also a great girl and a really good friend."

Optic Nerve 13. Adrian Tomine. Drawn & Quarterly. 32 pages. $5.95.
Each issue is an event, and this latest is no less a delight. The autobiographical stuff is as good as ever, and the antics of an odd, semi-recovering couple is imaginative and true — even if it's not. Tomine's fine line art and staging continues to improve, no small feat considering how accomplished he already is.
March, Book One. John Lewis, Andrew Aydin, Nate Powell. Top Shelf. 128 pages. $14.95.
This autographical work, illuminating the amazing life of civil rights pioneer and U.S. Congressman John Lewis, is entertaining, enlightening and inspirational. The first of three volumes, focusing on Lewis' early life and non-violent activism in desegregating Nashville, recounts history in a personal and powerful way. Aydin's adaptation and Powell's illustrations portray Lewis' Alabama childhood and growing social awareness in a naturalistic and compelling manner — the best way to understand history, at ground level.
Solo: The Deluxe Edition. Various Artists. DC Comics. 608 pages. $49.99.
Collecting the full 12-issue run of this limited series — in which a single artist was given 48 pages to write and draw almost anything in and around the DC universe — makes for a fat and fabulous volume. Richard Corben, Howard Chaykin, Paul Pope, Tim Sale, Darwin Cooke and others seized the singular opportunity and made some really imaginative comics. Though many of the stories employed the company's characters, the artists' personalities shine through distinctly. Highly recommended.
The Big Feminist But: Comics about Women, Men and the IFs, ANDs & BUTs of Feminism. Shannon O'Leary and Joan Reilly (editors/publishers). $20.
This Kickstarter-funded anthology of comics about the new wave of feminism is a varied collection of narrative and graphic styles. The diversity is an excellent means of conveying the varied angles from which each artist and writer approaches the topic. For most, it's autobiographical, recounting growing awareness of feminism, identity, gender roles, parenthood, romance and more. It's entertaining and thought-provoking. Not every strip will resonate with every reader, but there are plenty here that will.
Co-Mix: A Retrospective of Comics, Graphics, and Scraps. Art Spiegelman. Drawn & Quarterly. 120 pages. $39.96.
A retrospective museum exhibition by the Pulitzer-Prize winning Maus creator is abundant justification for this greatest hits collection. A number of Spiegelman's strips and covers for the New Yorker magazine, sketches, lithographs and stories accompany the more extended narrative pieces. The result is a revelatory and detailed portrait of this visionary artist who invigorated the graphic novel and introduced it to the mainstream cultural world.
The Infinite Wait And Other Stories. Julia Wertz. Koyama Press. $15.
In these days of rampant careerism and overreaching, cartoonist Wertz demurred when the time came to follow up her last book for a major publisher. Instead, she placed this work with a smaller, indie house. But her droll, rude humor and playful art are undiminished. Each story features outrageous, insightful and painfully honest tales from various chapters of her life. Though currently spending much of her time photographing abandoned urban sites, Wertz's future in comics remains blindingly bright, evidenced by this fine, must-have collection.

officiating ITFITF
ITF Officiating provides comprehensive training for those who want to become certified Chair Umpires, Chief Umpires and Referees.
The world of tennis officiating has changed enormously in the last 30 years. During that time, the Code of Conduct has been developed and a standardised approach to the application of the Rules has been established.
This has been thanks to emphasis on the concept of professional officiating, which started with the Men's Tennis Council and which has been significantly expanded by the ITF, ATP and WTA.
In 1999, a Joint Certification Programme for Officials was created by the ITF, ATP and WTA. For the first time in the history of tennis officiating, each tennis official's education, ability and experience was acknowledged by a certification that all three organisations recognise.
The need for good officiating at all levels of the game is widely accepted and it is for that purpose that the ITF has developed a global programme to improve the quality of officiating from grass roots to Grand Slams.
The education and training of Officials is a crucial part of the ITF Officiating Programme. Success in this area helps meet our aim of raising standards worldwide and ensuring that there is a consistent approach to the Rules of Tennis and Code of Conduct.
There are Schools for four levels of officiating:
LEVEL 1 SCHOOLS The are no Level 1 schools currently planned. Please check again later.
LEVEL 2 SCHOOLS The are no Level 2 schools currently planned. Please check again later. LEVEL 3 SCHOOLS Venue: Doha, Qatar Date: 3-6 March 2014 Application Deadline: 31st December 2013

It's never too early for football: 2009 Viking depth chart, part two
Here's part two of our ongoing look at the 2009 Viking football depth chart. Again, this is just our best guess. We covered QB and FB last week. I should further state that this depth chart - at least on offense - reflects our belief that Coach Tri will again use a version of the spread offense. Please feel free to jump online at Purple and Gold Pigskin at lakestevensjournal.com to add your comments or suggestions.
WRz Brandon Preslar 2. Arvid Isaksen/Billy Jo Baker
I'm not sure of the terminology used for the different WR positions...it seemed like Colton Tupen played a flanker-type position, lining up on the weak side usually. Anyway, we'll call the Tupen position z for the purposes of this discussion.
Much like FB, the Vikes appear to be set for two seasons with a potential All Area talent. Junior Brandon Preslar, or Sunshine - if you dig it, showed flashes of remarkable talent. He has great hands, prototypical height, and that big-play ability that you look for - the ability to score from anywhere. As he matures, Preslar is bound to add strength and speed to his tool set. When that happens, look out. If I were a betting man (and I am), I would wager that Preslar will own every receiving mark in the Viking record book by the time he leaves.
I am a big fan of senior Arvid Isaksen, and as anyone who's gone to a basketball game this season can attest, he is a hell of an athlete and a great kid. He's fairly new to the sport, and he wasn't able to participate in contact drills for much of last season due to an arm injury, but he's got the size, hand-eye coordination and athletic ability to have a break-out season as a senior, especially if he is able to make the seven-on-seven circuit during the offseason. Senior Billy Joe Baker will be ready to make his own name as his big brother leaves to play on Saturdays. The hard-working and enthusiastic receiver has a chance to make a big impact in 2009.
WRx Brennan Frost 2. Arvid Isaksen/Jamie Laurine
This is referred to as the x position - but for a better reference, I'm talking about the position that Tyler Bryant played last season. This is a bit of guesswork, but assuming that Brennan Frost is not a FB, he'll definitely be a WR. Frost could work out of the slot, but I think that there are others who fit that position better. Frost needs to improve his hands, but that will come with experience. He's already a deadly open field runner and a threat to score. Frost will be able to stretch the field and get deep, and he should prove to be a capable blocker as well - a skill of vital importance for receivers in the spread offense.
Should Frost be used elsewhere, I'd look for Arvid Isaksen to get this starting spot. Senior Jamie Laurine, the specials teams maven from a year ago, could also be in line for a promotion.
H-back/WRh Tyler Reside 2.Quade Saleh/Chameron Lackey
Slotback. H-back. H. Whatever. We'll call it the Trevor Riecks, since he pioneered the position in the Viking attack. This position calls for a hybrid running back/WR skillset. The ability to run the fly sweep, coupled with the hands and chutzpah to catch the ball in heavy traffic.
Senior Tyler Reside seems to be a perfect fit, and should be in line for a breakout, All Conference-type season. He'has every physical tool: speed, quickness, and a sturdy physique. He may not be as tall as the prototypical receiver, but neither is Wes Welker. In fact, I think that's an apt comparison.
Junior Quade Saleh showed speed, toughness and hands while working for the scout team last season, and depending on his offseason, he could be up for some significant varsity action
If Chameron Lackey is not QB1, this is another position he could excel at.
Tight End
TE/WRy Aaron Britton 2. Ross Jones
Granted, I have never seen Aaron Britton catch a pass, but I have seen him rush the passer, and I've seen him play basketball, and I've heard Coach Tri rave about him, so I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that Britton will be TE1 come September....and what a target the 6'7 junior will make!
If Britton concentrates on defense, the Vikes will be in the capable hands of senior Ross Jones, another tall and athletic end who has displayed solid pass-catching ability in practice.
Return Specialists
KR/PR Brandon Preslar Tyler Reside/Brennan Frost/Chameron Lackey
Brandon Preslar returned kicks last year with some success, and Tyler Reside and Brennan Frost both have the speed and shiftiness that you love out of punt returners. Again, if he's not the QB, then Chameron Lackey has considerable experience at this position as well.
Is it me, or is the roster looking pretty solid for next year?

(NBC NEWS) - Thousands of New Yorkers are still without power more than two weeks after Hurricane Sandy rocked the region.
President Obama on Thursday visited the communities in New York City hardest hit by the storm and promised help.
"We are going to make sure we stay here as along as people need that immediate help. That's FEMA's primary task," the president promised residents.
Meanwhile, the New York Attorney General has opened an investigation into two utility companies for their failure to restore power to customers.

Notoriously good
By Welshwaspy (126 reviews) from London , 08 Feb 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
The more I watch Hitchcock, the more I come to see his genius as a director of thrillers. Notorious is another example of the great director at work, telling the story of a female spy asked to find out what prominent Nazi supporters in Brazil are planning.
Ingrig Bergman plays Alicia, the daughter of a Nazi traitor in the US who is persuaded by spymaster Devlin (a wonderful complex Cary Grant) to help the US find out what a Nazi group in Rio is planning. As she begins to form deeper associations with the group, even marrying its leader Alex Sebastian. However, Alex becomes suspicious of his new wife and starts to take measures against her before Devlin comes to her rescue.
The film is one of Hitchcock's first in Hollywood and certainly one of his best. Grant is excellent as Devlin, giving an edgy and less charming performance than usual. Bergman simmers with beauty and performs her role with great fervour. Hitchcock again displays his visual flair with some fantastic leading shots, especially involving the wine cellar key. One piece of useless trvial - the long kiss between Grant and Bergman was the longest in cinema history at the time!- Was this review helpful to you?

Good old Hitchcock
By BeccyMalloi (124 reviews) from Kersey, Suffolk , 22 Feb 2011Ok so for me it didnt have the same impact as say Lifeboat, Rear Window or North by Northwest which I absolutely love, but it was still pretty good! I love the little effects he used, camera shots like that must have been pretty unusual when the film was first released; things we take for granted in modern cinema. But team his unique style with the fantastic cast and you've got a winner of a film. The one thing perhaps that let it down for me was the slighly abrupt ending, but other than that- a brilliant watch.- Was this review helpful to you?

I liked it. Liked the characterization and camaraderie between the two ladies. I do miss the Helena that was a lawyer, but she still seems to be the same smart girl (obviously since she's Batman's daughter.)
The art worked out better between the two than I had expected, not that I expected it to be bad...just more curious how the transition would work.
Not all who wander are lost....
I have to agree with everything the reviewer said. I loved this book. Excellent, detailed characterisation, a strong interplay between the lead and some brilliant artwork from both Perez and Maguire. Both this book and Earth-2 were fantastic.
I don't know why it bothers me so much, but I find it really irritating that they used to be Robin and Supergirl. It just seems to kind of detract from the characters themselves, IMO. I'm picking this up to read about Huntress, but it feels like I'm reading about a Robin posing as Huntress.
I felt similar to Earth 2 in that I don't know if I'll stay with it, though I will give it a few issues. At least they're not rookie heroes, which seems to be the norm based on what I've looked at in the NuDC.
I actually sort of liked that they had those associations. It was nice to have the Huntress, for example, be the Batman's child again, I thought.
I did like the distinction Robinson made between the Earth 2 heroes and their main-stream counterparts, that they were a little older and more experienced than the heroes of DC's primary Earth.I felt similar to Earth 2 in that I don't know if I'll stay with it, though I will give it a few issues. At least they're not rookie heroes, which seems to be the norm based on what I've looked at in the NuDC.
"The only thing true is what you do."
This book has the capacity to be absolutely central to the new DC universe. It is going to be so interesting to watch as Power Girl and Huntress gradually integrate into the superhero community of the Earth they now live on - meeting Batman and Superman etc (and Supergirl!).
Although Karen has only just become Power Girl, I am assuming Helena has been Huntress for some time . . does that mean she was a member of Birds of Prey?
Again, loved the story, characterisation, art . . . just hated PG's costume!
I'll echo what some others have said. I'm a big Power Girl fan from back in the day, and as such I don't really like the characterization of this new Power Girl. But comparing the two is an exercise in futility. This is not the old Power Girl, it's a different character. And while I don't like her characterization, I do acknowledge that she acts in a consistent and realistic way for someone who has lost all their family and been stranded in a different dimension. She's doing anything and everything she can to get back home, including lie, cheat, and steal. That's believable.
The story and art were solid, and I think this was a good issue even if it wasn't the issue I wanted. I'm willing to give it time to grow on me.
Actually, I am going to disagree with you here, but only by a matter of degrees. Power Girl's characterization here did seem to contain elements from her initial characterization (a sort of independent hardcore element) that I thought harkened back to the days when Wally Wood was drawing the character.
"The only thing true is what you do."
I loved this issue.... I was iffy on the book, was really just gonna pick up issue one and see. It won me over.
My one complaint:
Robin and Supergirl are falling after going through the boom tube..... Robin thinks about her training and goes into dive mode. She thinks about not wanting to lose her friend too.
She yells her friends name UNDERWATER. Should have been a thought bubble. Other than that, great issue. Im adding it to the pull list for a bit.
"The only thing true is what you do."
Well, Helena does care a little.
She is trying to do good as the Huntress.
Kara is another matter.
Even if she thought that E1 one heroes has stuff under control and she wasn't needed, the story made it seem that she didn't even lift a finger to help her fellow man for five years.
You would think a Supergirl (any Supergirl) would be running around the world saving folks and dashing of before she could be seen/photographed.
She could still make herself rich and do that.
"Who fights an army with purple tape over their nipples?"
Starfire can. She destroyed 3 tanks inbetween panels while wearing purple tape over her nipples.

"Never mind."~~ Emily Litella [Gilda Radner]Look, when you have an agenda, no sample-size is too small. I mean, it´s not like you´re actually pretending to do science. Right?
This is probably a government grant and I know that I cherish jellyfish, specially if they laah you when you are in water. They can grow very large and bloom is not a term that I would use. Kill all of them - they can make a grown man cry with pain.
Then explain the sudden surge of peanutbutterfish.
#3: "Kill them all"?But surely someone somewhere has pointed out they just might have the cures for cancer and AIDs! I mean, what doesn´t?
not just cry in pain - kill you in no short order!
Nuts. I was hoping we could weaponize exploding jellyfish.
But....but.....this was SETTLED SCIENCE!
Warmies convinced the world that jellyfish population was intimately tied to the earth temperature.Okay, let's accept that.Ergo if there is no jellyfish explosion, there is no global warming.Simple.Science settled it.Next!
If one of the late night comics referred to ´´the Global Jellyfish Group´´ I would be laughing along with the audience.
I think that squid feed off of jelly fish, so we´re talking a bloom of calamari here people.
Gosh, you mean the tree hugging warmers got it wrong...AGAIN? Mores the pity...
This is going to require more government-funded research.

John Reis' musical résumé includes at least four defunct bands that people would pay lots of money to see today. One is Hot Snakes, a San Diego-based quartet that blends the simplicity of three-chord garage rock (à la the Wipers) with the downstrummed aural assault championed by Johnny Ramone. But just because the 42-year-old guitarist reunited Hot Snakes in 2011 doesn't mean he feels the same about his other broken-up groups, which is a shame when you consider they are math-rock pioneers Drive Like Jehu, criminally neglected pop band the Sultans, and Rocket from the Crypt, a six-piece outfit also known as the best...

Everyone loves a glass of juice in the morning or during the day. There are many health benefits that come with juicing of fruits . Juicing can help you lose weight by delivering nutrients that our body need. In order to achieve this you need the best rated juicer in the market. Before rushing to buy a juicer, here are factors you should take into consideration:
1. Juicer Type
This is because there are many type of juicers in the market. They include Masticating Juicers, Centrifugal Juicers and Triturating or Twin gear juicers.
2. Price
Depending on your budget you can buy various juicers since they come in different prices. The more expensive ones are of higher quality and very efficient.
3. How to use it?
Do you need a juicer to juice basic vegetables and fruits or do you need it to juice leafy greens and wheat grass. Do you need it for domestic use or commercial use.
4. Ease of use
Check how wide the chute of your juicer is. The more spacious the tube, the more easily it will be for you to put whole veggies and fruits without chopping them first.
5. Motor power
In the case of Centrifugal juicer, a strong motor is very important.
Here are the juicers reviews 2013:
Best Masticating Juicer – Omega J8oo6
If you need a juicer for commercial services this is the best. It extracts juice at only 8o RPM, which is the lowest speed for quality juice. It combines dual stages so as to crush the fruits.If you wish to continue juicing it offers instant pulp ejection function. It is very quiet and comes with 15 years warranty.
Best Centrifugal juicer – Breville BJE200 – Watt Compact Juice
This is among the best Breville juicers in the market. Its big advantage is that its affordable. It juice's even the hardest vegetables and fruits. It ensures you have. It has a wide chute, therefore you can feed the vegetables and fruits whole.
Best Triturating juicer – Super Angel 5500 Stainless Steel Living Juice Extractor
This juicer produces the healthiest juice. It is among the most expensive of juicers. It operates at a lower speed hence preserving most of the nutrients.

Roland Organ/Strings 09 (RS-09)
The RS-09 is an analog string and organ synthesizer (similar to the Saturn-09 which only produced an organ sound). It's old, it's cheap and they're usually worth finding! The string sound and organ sounds are nice, fatty analog sounds. The organ and string sections can be played simultaneously or individually. An ensemble/chorus effect and external sound input are welcome features. But aside from all this, there isn't much else left to this synth. A simple 2-vco architecture with simple and limited editable parameters, no patch memory and a small keyboard.
There are three versions of this unit. The one shown above is a V.3. The differences are mainly cosmetic and in the control surface; the V.3 uses touch-switches, the V.1 uses rockers and tends to be more reliable due to that. This instrument can be found for around $100, and they could add a nice flavor to any modern analog-electronic keyboard studio. It has been used by Jimi Tenor, UB40, and The Cure.

[This is Part 3 of an In-Depth Report on The Future of Nuclear Power.]
A 98-foot-wide, two-mile-long ditch with steep walls 33 feet deep that bristles with magnets and radar reflectors will stand for millennia as a warning to future humans not to trifle with what is hidden inside the Waste Isolation Pilot Project (WIPP) outside Carlsbad, N.M. Paired with 48 stone or concrete 105-ton markers, etched with warnings in seven languages ranging from English to Navajo as well as human faces contorted into expressions of horror, the massive installation is meant to stand for at least 10,000 years—twice as long as the Egyptian pyramids have survived.
But the plutonium ensconced in the salt mine at the center of this installation will be lethal to humans for at least 25 times that long—even once the salt walls ooze inward to entomb the legacy of American atomic weapons. And WIPP will only hold a fraction, though a more deadly fraction, of the amount of nuclear waste the U.S. plans to store at Yucca Mountain in Nevada or some other site designated to replace it as a permanent repository for the residue of nuclear reactions.
The Desert Space Foundation, an arts group in Las Vegas, Nev., sponsored a contest to come up with a similar warning system for that site. The winner: genetically-modified yucca cacti turned cobalt blue that would be planted across the entire Yucca Mountain site—to serve as a warning to future civilizations of the radioactive waste within the mountain fastness.
But eerie blue cacti or massive monoliths in the desert may attract rather than repel future explorers—the warnings of the Egyptians did little to deter modern archaeologists. There already are those who see what would be hidden inside Yucca as a resource rather than a curse—after all, as much as 95 percent of the energy in fissile uranium remains in the waste. "The majority of the energy is still in the spent fuel," says Rod McCullum, director of the Yucca Mountain project at the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI), an industry group. "With Yucca Mountain, you can pull [the nuclear waste] out and reprocess it."
Lonely mountain
In 1987 Congress passed legislation that required the Department of Energy (DoE) to take possession of and properly store the spent fuel from the nation's 104 nuclear reactors by the then far-off date of February 1998. Now 11 years behind schedule, the DoE's primary response—to bury it deep within Yucca Mountain—is no closer to being a permanent solution.
The Energy Department last June finally applied to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), the federal government agency that oversees the nation's nuclear power plants, for a license to build the repository at Yucca. But taxpayers still spend roughly $1 billion a year in fines paid by the federal government) to utilities to compensate them for the delay.
All told, the nuclear reactors in the U.S. produce more than 2,000 metric tons of radioactive waste a year, according to the DoE—and most of it ends up sitting on-site because there is nowhere else to put it. "When we remove fuel from the core after its final usage, we store it in a pool on site. We have the capacity to store it there for many years," says Bryan Dolan, vice president of nuclear development at Duke Energy Corp., which operates three nuclear power plants in South Carolina. The amount of space required to store it, after all, is "incredibly small."

Comments about Heater Hog Beanie:
I've had the Heater Hog for two weeks and I feel like I haven't taken it off. I've been using it more and more as the harshening weather rolls into southwestern Ohio, both casually and on the run. As a self-proclaimed cold blooded human being I even wear this at the office. It performs great in both instances providing a great balance of warmth and breathability - it's simply the best beanie I've ever owned.

The Makita 18V Compact Lithium-Ion 1/2" Driver-Drill was named TOP TOOL by Wood Magazine in their December 2011 issue.
TORQUE: The Makita LXFD01CW features higher torque (480 in.lbs.), yet weighs only 3.3 lbs.
CHARGE TIME: Makita 18V Compact Lithium-Ion Compact batteries deliver the fastest charge time in the industry.
Media: Wayne Hart Communications Manager Makita U.S.A. (714) 522-8088 x 4410 firstname.lastname@example.com
Consumer: (800) 4-MAKITA makitatools.com
Editors impressed with LXFD01CW's long run time, fast charge, and high torque
WOOD Magazine (circulation: 505,000) rounded up eight 18V Compact half-inch driver-drills and tested them for torque, run time, and charge time. They also evaluated each drill's chuck, L.E.D. lights (if they had one), grip, and overall balance.
WOOD Magazine reaches over 505,000 readers each month.
Competitors included 18V Compact Drills from Bosch, DeWalt, Hitachi, Milwaukee, Ridgid, Ryobi, Skil, and Makita. In the end, WOOD named the Makita 18V Compact Lithium-Ion Driver-Drill (LXFD01CW) as their TOP TOOL.
The WOOD editor noted that the Makita "offers a trifecta of important features: long run time, short recharge time, and lots of torque." In fact, the Makita won both the lag-screw driving power (torque) test, and also the battery charge time test. The Makita was just two holes short of the lead in run time (1" spade bits drilled into 2-by lumber), but even in 2nd place the Makita drilled about 50 percent more than the DeWalt, Milwaukee, Ryobi, and Skil drills.
Makita 18V Compact Lithium-IonMakita created the 18V Compact Lithium-Ion category in 2006 with the BDF452HW 1/2" Driver-Drill. The LXFD01CW, the successor to this innovative drill, takes compact 18V Lithium-Ion to an even higher level with more power, improved ergonomics, less weight, and the fastest charge time on the market at only 15 minutes. Just like it was in 2006, there's nothing like it on the market right now.

Starting secondary or high school is one of life's rites of passage. Many children find it stressful, and there is a huge amount to take in – different teachers for different lessons, larger and more impersonal schools, and substantial homework. Even if your child goes to a local school where some of their friends are also going, there are going to be a lot of new faces in the class, and your child will have to try and fit into the new order. There are a number of things a parent can do to help. Making sure your child is not tired, and has had a good night's sleep is an obvious one, but others might include taking the time to listen to their feelings about starting school, or simply talking about the changes that are coming up. Practicing the route to school before term starts is useful. Try not to press the view of your own education, good or bad, onto your child. It is likely that their experience will be mixed, and they should be able to make up their own mind.
Once at school, children often find it difficult to deal with the extra organisation that is required. You can help by making sure bags are packed and uniform laid out the night before. We all want our children to be independent, but a little help in the first few weeks might make the transition easier. Your child has so many new routines to get used to that I always recommend being a bit more relaxed about home chores for the first term. You can provide a calm, loving sanctuary, so your child feels secure and supported, and can face the challenges of a new school.
In terms of academic work, there is a well-documented trend for children to fall behind in their learning over the summer holidays. To help your child start their high school education ready to learn, you can help them with some work over the summer beforehand. I really don't mean working through endless maths sheets, and making your child dread school. What might be more appropriate is stimulating your child's enthusiasm for learning by getting them some exciting new books out of the library, making a giant model with them, or perhaps a visit to a museum of your child's choice.

Your newsletter is such great inspiration! I have a huge tree in my back yard. I never take the time to enjoy the tree; instead I was always complaining how messy the tree makes my yard. I used to complain every day to my husband to "GET THAT tree cut DOWN!"
It was not until I read your newsletter that I finally took the time to see the beauty of nature at work. Not only is MY tree a home to birds and squirrels, it also gives me such pleasure sitting in its shade. Life truly is precious and we should take a little time out of our busy schedule to appreciate it. Thanks for giving me that! Annemarie
I have to remind myself to take notice and appreciate the little things. I'm writing this newsletter as much for me as for you (which is the case for most letters I write). Sometimes my world gets so busy I don't stop to recognize one beautiful or interesting thing about the day. It's like I wake up on auto pilot until I go to bed that night. So, open your eyes and I will too. We have the rest of the day to notice that new rose budding, ducks landing in the pond, or that a certain tree in our yard is the perfect place to rest in the shade. Just a thought.

Rachel Welte is the Weekend News Anchor and a General Assignment Reporter.
COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- It is that time of year, when high school seniors start applying for college.
But with the bad economy, and sky-rocketing tuition rates, should students look for the right school or the right price?
According to The Project on Student Debt, the average debt level for graduating seniors at the end of the last decade was around $24,000.
It also said 67 percent of students graduating from a four-year college or university have some student loan debt.
School District 11's Palmer High School hosted a college fair Monday night for all southern Colorado students in the hopes of helping them and their parents find a school that is right both educationally and financially.
"I am thinking about being a psychologist probably," Palmer Junior Maija Roscoe said.
"I have no clue, just going in and see what I like," Pine Creek Junior Andrew Wallace said.
It is one of the most important choices we make in our lifetime, where to go to college.
So how does one know where to go, and what to study?
Experts said unfortunately there is not an exact formula because everyone is different.
"When we advise kids about college, we want them to find the best fit, a college they can afford and a college that offers them the things they are looking for," Palmer High Counselor Nola Thomasson said. "We want them to come out of school with a great education, and a great vocation."
Thomasson said students should start looking at schools during their junior year.
She said they do need to think long-term, and be realistic about what they want to do when they graduate, and what kind-of debt they want to take on.
"Try to do their best to graduate in four years instead of five, and if they are working with a good admissions counselor there, they can make that happen," Thomasson said.
For the budget-conscious who do want to attend an out-of-state school, Thomasson said there are always scholarships, grants and work-study.
But she said to get them students have to do their research, and be willing to apply for a lot, even if they do already have some money in place.
"I do plan on applying for scholarships, and I have been saving up for college with my parents for a long time," Roscoe said.
"I have had the money talk, and my grandparents put some money aside for me, so it is nice I have some extra others do not," Wallace said.
