Hmm...not too much for the elder statesmen track fans to look forward to. And that would mean the next successful USA bid would be 2048 or 2052? Or more likely, never.

Hull Comedy Festival Comedian Of The Year 2008
Show type: Misc live shows
Held at the Quality Royal Hotel on October 30, 2008,compered by Jamie Sutherland and sponsored by Tenfoot City
, Ben Harland
, Ian Smith
, James Christopher
, Sam Gore
, Sam Harland
, Simon Gunnell
Original Review:
Is comedy slipping back to its bad old ways? Another new act final, another all white-male line-up. Since Edinburgh, the Scottish Comedian of the Year, City Life, Reading Comedy Festival, Beat The Frog World Series and now the Hull Comedy Festivals new act finals have, between all five them, featured only one non-white act (half-Chinese Eddie Hoo, who won City Life) and three women: Rachel Fairburn, Carly Baker and Helen Huscroft. Does the new act circuit really have the diversity of the Lords members bar?
Theres also a question about diversity of material. Of the first seven acts in Hull, five had a gag about paedophiles. And one of the two that didnt had an incest gag to compensate. Shouldnt comedy be about thinking outside the box? Child molesters have become the new mother-in-laws.
Putting those questions to one side, here are the runners and riders from the second Hull Comedy Festival competition a noticeable improvement, incidentally, on last years line-up.
Sam Harland felt old-fashioned; both in delivery and outlook, as he ran through an unambitious menu of subjects: internet porn, chavvy single mums feeding their kids at Greggs and how his home town is a shithole. At least, in this case, his home town is Hull, so he had plenty of local references with which to endear himself to the audience. His presentation is slick, but you can see many of the punchlines coming.
Sam Gore, who triumphed at the Frog & Bucket earlier in the month, took the crown tonight, too. Hes a young Marcus Brigstocke, aloof and uncompromising in his distain for all that displeases him, letting rip with a savage battery of acrid bile. The insults are extravagant, if sometimes a bit too horrible, but its the sheer relentlessness of the attacks from this self-confessed nasty, vicious, cynical bigot that raise the laughs.
Young Ian Smiths languorous pace and amiable soft-spoken voice conceal a nicely pointed attitude; with a few neat gags to match. But his low-key approach failed to grip the audience, and the closing set piece, reviewing his own act in revenge at a dismissive earlier critique, doesnt work nearly as well as it could. He doesnt yet feel complete as a comic, but the emphasis is on the yet.
James Christopher is a likeably jolly chap, with a nice line in self-deprecation at his own geekish demeanour, even if he mines it to exhaustion. Theres an enjoyable, if trivial, anecdote about him being an accidental racist, and a longer section gently mocking a few ridiculous church brochures hes come across. Theres some quite nice material here, but he doesnt make the most of it. The punchlines need to be highlighted more and the set needs considerable tightening. But, its early days yet and hes got more than a little charm.
Character act Bob Torquay is a brash driving instructor giving a seminar on the rules of the road. But the delivery is too shouty and the jokes too poor. If you think writing the word cock on an overhead projector transparency is the height of humour, you might enjoy him as he does three variations on that juvenile gag. There then follows a few hand-drawn road signs he asks us to guess the meaning of and when the audience shout out the gag immediately, its an indication of just how little thought the comic has put into it. Whats the sign for Danger: poor material ahead?
In contrast, Simon Gunnell has a very, very slow delivery but hes playful with it, which keeps the audience alert. Hes come up with a good structure for his set, too, attempting to run down his top 100 films, with reasons, in his allotted ten minutes, even though, with his speed, its unlikely hell make it. The idea turns out to be a red herring, just a framework for a collection of gags, some of which are rather good indeed. Quite some invention has gone into this act; expect to see more.
Ben Harland the second Harland brother of the night had a style far removed from his slick brother who opened the show. His persona is of an awkward, nervously fey comedian ill at ease on stage. Its a difficult tightrope to walk, as the ever-present danger is that the audience cannot distinguish fake nervousness from the real thing, and so lose that all-important confidence that the comic is going to be funny. Indeed Harland almost came a cropper on that front. But behind the odd, effeminate act, genuine charm shines through. Unfortunately, hes let down by some patchy material, but his approach is strangely intriguing. He took second place on the night, for originality alone.
Theres no kind way to put this, but Richard Scully died a horrible death tonight; and no small wonder with a catalogue of truly dreadful puns, all of which fell on deaf ears. Perhaps his place in the final is an indication of the tastes of competition organiser Agraman, whose own act is a litany of tortured wordplay, more than that of audiences. Scully did have one excellent gag about Parkinsons disease but thats not enough for a whole set. To his credit, he knew when he was beat and left the stage with some dignity before his time was up.
Closing the show was Alfie Moore, a working policeman. Hes more of an anecdotalist than a comedian, but his profession has provided him with more than enough raw material. He has a nice, relaxed style a roomful of strangers perhaps one of the lesser intimidations hes faced which combines with the inherent interest in the on-the-job stories to make him someone you just want to listen to. With few actual punchlines a run-through of some Lidl brand names notwithstanding ten minutes doesnt seem enough to hear all of his experiences and thoughts on political-correct policing. But wanting to hear more from a new comedian is no bad thing. Theres no way of escaping this conclusion: hes an arresting storyteller.

On the flight to Raleigh, I sneezed, and the cough drop I'd been sucking on shot from my mouth, ricocheted off my folded tray table, and landed, as I remember it, in the lap of the woman beside me, who was asleep and had her arms folded across her chest. I'm surprised that the force didn't wake her—that's how hard it hit—but all she did was flutter her eyelids and let out a tiny sigh, the kind you might hear from a baby.
Under normal circumstances, I'd have had three choices, the first being to do nothing. The woman would wake up in her own time, and notice what looked like a shiny new button sewn to the crotch of her jeans. This was a small plane, with one seat per row on Aisle A, and two seats per row on Aisle B. We were on B, so should she go searching for answers I would be the first person on her list. "Is this yours?" she'd ask, and I'd look dumbly into her lap.
"Is what mine?"
Option No. 2 was to reach over and pluck it from her pants, and No. 3 was to wake her up and turn the tables, saying, "I'm sorry, but I think you have something that belongs to me." Then she'd hand the lozenge back and maybe even apologize, confused into thinking that she'd somehow stolen it.
These circumstances, however, were not normal, as before she'd fallen asleep the woman and I had had a fight. I'd known her for only an hour, yet I felt her hatred just as strongly as I felt the stream of cold air blowing into my face—this after she'd repositioned the nozzle above her head, a final fuck-you before settling down for her nap.
The odd thing was that she hadn't looked like trouble. I'd stood behind her while boarding and she was just this woman—forty at most—wearing a T-shirt and cutoff jeans. Her hair was brown, and fell to her shoulders, and as we waited she gathered it into a ponytail and fastened it with an elastic band. There was a man beside her, who was around the same age and was also wearing shorts, though his were hemmed. He was skimming through a golf magazine, and I guessed correctly that the two of them were embarking on a vacation. While on the gangway, the woman mentioned a rental car, and wondered if the beach cottage was far from a grocery store. She was clearly looking forward to her trip, and I found myself hoping that, whichever beach they were going to, the grocery store wouldn't be too far away. It was just one of those things that go through your mind. Best of luck, I thought.
Once on board, I realized that the woman and I would be sitting next to one another, which was fine. I took my place on the aisle, and within a minute she excused herself and walked a few rows up to talk to the man with the golf magazine. He was at the front of the cabin, in a single bulkhead seat, and I recall feeling sorry for him, because I hate the bulkhead. Tall people covet it, but I prefer as little leg room as possible. When I'm on a plane or in a movie theatre, I like to slouch down as low as I can, and rest my knees on the seat back in front of me. In the bulkhead, there is no seat in front of you, just a wall a good three feet away, and I never know what to do with my legs. Another drawback is that you have to stow all of your belongings in the overhead compartment, and these are usually full by the time I board. All in all, I'd rather hang from one of the wheels than have to sit up front.
When they announced our departure, the woman returned to her seat, and hovered a half foot off the cushion, so she could continue her conversation with the man she'd been talking to earlier. I wasn't paying attention to what they were saying, but I believe I heard him refer to her as Becky, a wholesome name that matched her contagious, almost childlike enthusiasm.
The plane took off and everything was as it should be until the woman touched my arm, and pointed to the man she'd been talking to earlier. "Hey," she said, "see that guy up there?" Then she called out his name—Eric, I think—and the man turned and waved. "That's my husband, see, and I'm wondering if you could maybe swap seats so that me and him could sit together."
"Well, actually—" I said, and before I could finish her face hardened, and she interrupted me, saying, "What? You have a problem with that?"
"Well," I said, "ordinarily I'd be happy to move, but he's in the bulkhead, and I just hate that seat."
"He's in the what?"
"The bulkhead," I explained. "That's what you call that front row."
"Listen," she said, "I'm not asking you to switch because it's a bad seat. I'm asking you to switch because we're married." She pointed to her wedding ring, and when I leaned in closer to get a better look at it she drew back her hand, saying, "Oh, never mind. Just forget it."

The SEC announced today that it has suspended Georgia DL Kwame Geathers and SS Shawn Williams — along with Vanderbilt C Logan Stewart — for the first half of their next game. Williams is a starter.
Geathers was suspended for fighting, while Williams is out for committing a personal foul by hitting a defenseless opponent above the shoulders.

David Hill is no stranger to tackling big events, but that doesn't make his new job any easier.
The former Fox Sports chairman has been tapped to oversee Fox's "American Idol" and "The X Factor," both of which are in turmoil, struggling through ratings and unfortunate publicity in the last year.
Thrown into the breach after the departure of Fox reality chief Mike Darnell, Hill doesn't have the option of cashing out on one show -- primarily "X Factor" -- and focusing his resources on just veteran hit "Idol."
The net and Hill, then, are stuck with both shows at least in the near term, compounding viewer fatigue in a genre where NBC's "The Voice" has become a formidable player.
Fox is clearly treating "Idol" as priority No. 1, with a series of sweeping changes. Not only is Darnell gone, but longtime exec producers Nigel Lythgoe and Ken Warwick have been shown the door, with Per Blankens stepping up to exec produce for FremantleMedia. Last season's judges Nicki Minaj, Mariah Carey, and original judge Randy Jackson have also left.
Judge Keith Urban's status on the show remains unclear, and the only sure thing "Idol" seems to have going is host Ryan Seacrest, who has remained steady on the program for a dozen seasons.
Hill's appointment arrives after the Fox Sports vet virtually changed the face of live sports programming. Whether it's the constant presence of a game's timer and scoreboard on screen during a sports event, the brightly colored first-down lines in football or the cross-cutting camera angles of baseball broadcasts, Hill brought visual innovation to live sports and redefined the viewer's experience.
As "Idol" and "X Factor" are often produced like live event programming, Hill's sports chops will be well-suited for the skeins. As it is, Fox has announced a split-screen advertising initiative for "Idol" that underscores Fox's efforts to market it as a live, must-watch event in the era of DVR.
Yet, "Idol" and "X Factor" won't be saved with mere graphical bells and whistles. Hill's achievements in the sports realm derive from offering sports fans informational power and a more visually-stimulating experience; but in the singing competition space, success is bought from judge chemistry, authentic storylines, and distinct formats.
Aside from the obvious need to find compelling judges for "Idol" (Jennifer Hudson is said to be in talks for a spot at the table), the real work may lie in retooling the format of "X Factor," a lesser-known brand, in order to differentiate the two shows on Fox's lineup.
A more intimate approach to auditions and judging would immediately distinguish "X Factor" from "Idol," offer competitive edge against the Peacock's "Voice," and give new judges Kelli Rowland, Paulina Rubio and Lovato the chance to showcase their musical chops.
As for "Idol," tinkering with the format will only be part of the process, particularly with a new showrunner and almost entirely new lineup of talent to introduce.
Hill has thus far been mum about any specific plans, but the clock is ticking for the former sports honcho, the ball is clearly in his court, with Fox hoping he scores.

Ithaca College is a private college located on the South Hill of Ithaca, New York, United States. The school was founded by William Egbert in 1892 as a conservatory of music. The college has a strong liberal arts core, but also offers several pre-professional programs and some graduate programs.[2] The college is also known internationally for its communications program, the Roy H. Park School of Communications, which was most recently ranked as a top school for both journalism[3] and film.[4] The college is set against the backdrop of Cayuga Lake, the city of Ithaca, and several waterfalls and gorges. The college is perhaps best known for its large list of alumni who play or have played substantial roles in the worlds of media and entertainment. The college has been ranked among the top ten master's universities in the North by U.S. News & World Report every year since 1996.[5] For the 2010 rankings, the college was ranked 7 in this category.[6]
Ithaca College was founded as the Ithaca Conservatory of Music in 1892 when a local violin teacher, William Grant Egbert, rented four rooms and arranged for the instruction of eight students. For nearly seven decades the institution flourished in the city of Ithaca, adding to its music curriculum the study of elocution, dance, physical education, speech correction, radio, business, and the liberal arts. In 1931 the conservatory was chartered as a private college. The college was originally housed in the Boardman House, that later became the Ithaca College Museum of Art, and it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.[7]
Modern eraEdit
By 1960, some 2,000 students were in attendance. A modern campus was built on South Hill in the sixties, and students were shuttled between the old and new during the construction. The hillside campus continued to grow in the ensuing 30 years to accommodate more than 6,000 students.
As the campus expanded, the college also began to expand its curriculum. By the 1990s, some 2,000 courses in more than 100 programs of study were available in the college's five schools. The school attracts a multicultural student body with representatives from almost every state and from 78 foreign countries.[8]
Ithaca College's current campus was built in the 1960s on South Hill. In 1968 the College's final academic department moved to the South Hill campus from downtown, making the move complete.
Satellite campusesEdit
Besides its Ithaca campus, Ithaca College has also operated satellite campuses in other cities. The Ithaca College London Center has been in existence since 1972. Ithaca runs the Ithaca College Los Angeles Program at the James B. Pendleton Center. Additionally, there is an Ithaca College Washington Semester Program, and a recently launched Ithaca College New York City Center.[9]
Former programs include the Ithaca College Antigua Program and the Ithaca College Walkabout Down Under Program in Australia.
Ithaca College also operates direct enrollment exchange programs with several universities, including Griffith University, La Trobe University, Murdoch University, and University of Tasmania (Australia); Chengdu Sport University and Beijing Sport University (China); University of Hong Kong; Masaryk University (Czech Republic); Akita International University and University of Tsukuba (Japan); Hanyang University (Korea); Nanyang Technological University (Singapore); University of Valencia (Spain); and Jönköping University (Sweden).[10]
|This section requires expansion. (November 2010)
The college offers a curriculum with more than 100 degree programs in its five schools.
Student lifeEdit
Media and publicationsEdit
- The Ithacan is Ithaca College's official newspaper. The paper is written, edited and published by students. The Ithacan is available in print every Thursday morning and online.[11] The Ithacan and its staff have won many major collegiate journalism awards, most notably, the Associated Collegiate Press' National Pacemaker Award, which it has won five times, most recently in 2008.[12][13] The Pacemaker has been widely considered the Pulitzer Prize of collegiate journalism.[citation needed]
- Ithaca College Television (ICTV) is the student operated television channel that has broadcast since 1958. During the 2012 Spring Semester, ICTV has 23 student-run shows on the air. ICTV has a wide variety of programming that can be viewed on Cable channel 16 in Tompkins County. The majority of the productions take place live in studio, and they include: Backstage Comedy, College Gourmet, Down with ASP, Entertainment 16, Experts Say, Fake Out, Game Over, ICTV Special Projects, Ithaca Eats, Leave the Light on with Dave, Pop Quiz, The Director's Chair, and The Screening Room. ICTV also has an entire host of shows to cover all the athletics on Ithaca's campus, as well as at Cornell University. This semester, the line-up includes: Sports Final, Big Red Face off, Bombers Live, and Hold That Thought. ICTV also has 2 web-series that can be viewed exclusively on www.ICTV.org: Dual Redundancy and Stop Me if You've Heard this One. There are also shows that are filmed outside the confines of the Park School, and they comprise the Field Show section: College Kids, Ithaca College Investigations Unit, Poutine on the Fritz, and Boys of 213. ICTV's flagship program, however, is Newswatch 16. This program is ICTV's longest-running show and one of Tompkins Counties most trusted sources for weekly news, sports, weather, and what is going on all around Tompkins County.
- WICB is an FCC-licensed station that operates at 4,100 Watts[14] at 91.7 on the FM band. The majority of its programming falls under the modern rock category. While broadcasting modern rock, the station is run similarly to a commercial modern rock station, with the inclusion of playlists planned by the programming and music departments that include leeway for listener requests and DJ choices. The station was recently honored with the MTVU Woodie Award for Best College Radio Station. Other programming ranges from mainstream hip-hop and R&B, to underground, downtempo, and other lesser-known genres of what is generally considered urban music. In addition to a lunchtime Jazz show, WICB broadcasts a number of other specialty shows throughout the week. These shows, which usually run 2–3 hours in length, come from genres such as blues, broadway, jam band music, and "homeless" music, that is not normally heard on the public airwaves.
- Buzzsaw Magazine, formerly Buzzsaw Haircut, was founded in 1999 and is the college's monthly alternative news magazine. It is available in print and online every month.[15] The magazine is produced by the Ithaca College community and printed by Our Press of Binghamton, New York. It is funded by the Ithaca College Student Government Association, the Park School of Communication, local advertising, community support, and a grant from Campus Progress. It has won a number of national awards, including the Campus Alternative Journalism Project's award for "Best Sense of Humor" in 2003 and the Independent Press Association's Campus Independent Journalism Awards for "Best Campus Publication with a Budget Under $10,000" and "Best Political Commentary" in 2005.
Greek lifeEdit
Historically, various independent and national fraternities and sororities had active chapters at Ithaca College. However, due to a series of highly publicized hazing incidents in the 1980s, including one that was responsible for the death of a student, the College administration removed all but five Greek letter organizations from campus, and adopted a non-expansion policy, prohibiting any new Greek houses from affiliating with the College.[16] As of 2008, three recognized Greek organizations remain on campus, all of which are music oriented:
- Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia (Delta Chapter)
- Sigma Alpha Iota (Epsilon Chapter)
- Mu Phi Epsilon (Lambda Chapter)
- Delta Phi Zeta (Inactive)
- A fifth, performing arts oriented house, Kappa Gamma Psi (Iota Chapter), went inactive in 2008 due to insufficient membership on campus after Ithaca College refused to grant them an extension to allow interested freshman to pledge the following semester.
However, there are various Greek Letter Organizations at Ithaca College that are unaffiliated with the school, and therefore not subject to the same housing privileges or rules that contribute to the safety of their members such as non-hazing and non-drinking policies. While uncommon, it is permitted for Ithaca College students to pledge for Greek houses affiliated with Cornell University.
- Alpha Epsilon Pi (Iota Eta Colony) (Unaffiliated: Re-founded 2012 + Non-hazing)
The Ithaca athletics nickname "Bombers" is unique in NCAA athletics, and the origins of the nickname are obscure. Ithaca College's sports teams were originally named the Cayugas, but the name was changed to the Bombers sometime in the 1930s. Several possibilities for the change have been posited. The most common explanation is that the school's baseball uniforms—white with navy blue pinstripes and an interlocking "IC" on the left chest—bear a striking resemblance to the distinctive home uniforms of the New York Yankees, who are known as the Bronx Bombers. It may also have referred to the Ithaca basketball team of that era and its propensity for half-court "bombs". Grumman Aircraft also manufactured airplanes including bombers in Ithaca for many years. The first "Bombers" reference on record was in the December 17, 1938 issue of the Rochester Times-Union in a men's basketball article.[17]
The name has at times sparked controversy for its perceived martial connotations. It is an occasional source of umbrage from Ithaca's prominent pacifist community, but the athletics department has consistently stated it has no interest in changing the name. The athletics logo has in the past incorporated World War II era fighter planes, but currently does not, and the school does not currently have a physical mascot to personify the name. In 2010 the school launched a contest to choose one. It received over 250 suggestions and narrowed the field down to three: a phoenix, a flying squirrel, and a Lake Beast. In June 2011, President Rochon announced that the school would discontinue the search due to opposition in the alumni community.[18]
Ithaca is a member of the NCAA's Division III, the Empire Eight Conference, and the Eastern College Athletic Conference. Ithaca has one of Division III's strongest athletic programs.[citation needed] The Bombers have won a total of 15 national titles in seven team sports and five individual sports.
Coached by Jim Butterfield[19] for 27 years, the football team has won three NCAA Division III National Football Championships in 1979, 1988 and 1991 (a total surpassed only by Augustana, Mount Union and Wisconsin-Whitewater). Bomber football teams made a record seven appearances in the Division III national championship game, the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl, which has since been surpassed by Mount Union in 2003. The Bombers play the SUNY Cortland Red Dragons for the Cortaca Jug, which was added in 1959 to an already competitive rivalry. The matchup is one of the most prominent in Division III college football.[20]
Most recently, the women's crew won back-to-back NCAA Division III championships in 2004 and 2005.
Women's soccer has won two national championships in Division III and is consistently ranked in the top 20 nationally.
The Men's Wrestling team won NCAA Division III National Championships in 1989, 1990 and 1994.
This past year in 2013, Paula Miller, head of Woman's Swimming team completed her 30th year as head coach of the Ithaca Bombers. She has lead the team to many victories. The past four years the Bombers have been undefeated throughout their season defeating tough competition. Ithaca has finished first or second at 25 of the past 29 state meets. The Bombers have also won the Empire 8 crown in each of the past nine seasons.
The 2013-2014 season ended with regaining the NCAA Division III Championship trophy.
Ithaca is also home to more than 60 club sports, many of which compete regularly against other colleges in leagues and tournaments.
Ithaca ForeverEdit
Ithaca Forever is the official alma mater or school song of Ithaca College.[21]
Ithaca, forever shine your light on me
In our hearts together we shall always be
And here's to Ithaca, my Ithaca how beautiful you are,
Your Towers high upon South Hill, reach from stone to star.
Ithaca, forever I'll recall a smile,
Clasp a hand in friendship, walk a snowy mile,
And here's to Ithaca, my Ithaca - Alma Mater true,
Although I leave Cayuga's shore, I'll remember you.
Ithaca, forever guide us on our way,
Like a shining beacon, light our night and day,
And here's to Ithaca, my Ithaca, how bright your vision seems,
May all your sons and daughters dare to live their dreams.
Along with Intercollegiate athletics, Ithaca College has a rather large Intramural sport program. This extracurricular program serves approximately 25% of the undergraduate population yearly. Fourteen traditional team activities are offered throughout the year and include: basketball, flag football, kickball, soccer, softball, ultimate frisbee, ski racing, and volleyball.
For most activities divisions are offered for men's, women's, and co-recreational teams. Throughout the year usually two or more activities run concurrently and participants are able to play on a single sex team and co-recreational team for each activity. The most popular activities recently have been 5-on-5 basketball with over forty teams entered for the past three years, for the past two years there have been over thirty indoor flag football teams and teams have been turned away.
During 08-09 new records were established for total teams in both 4-person and 6-person volleyball, 3-on-3 basketball, and co-recreational indoor soccer. During the 08-09 year there were 1,559 intramural participants and over 500 female participants. It was estimated that the 2009–10 year and the 2010–11 have even more participants in intramural sports.[22]
Ithaca's School of Business was the first college or university business school in the world to achieve LEED Platinum Certification.[23] The College composts its dining hall waste,[24] runs a "Take It or Leave It" Green move-out program, and offers a sustainable living option.[25] It also operates an office supply collection and reuse program,[26] as well as a sustainability education program during new student orientation.[27] Ithaca received a B- grade on the Sustainable Endowments Institute's 2009 College Sustainability Report Card[28] and an A- for 2010.
Environmental recordEdit
Commitments to action on climate changeEdit
In Spring 2007, then-President Peggy R. Williams signed the American College and University President's Climate Commitment (ACUPCC), pledging Ithaca College to the task of developing a strategy and long-range plan to achieve "carbon neutrality" at some point in the future. In 2009 the Ithaca College Board of Trustees approved the Ithaca College Climate Action Plan, which calls for 100% carbon neutrality by 2050. In 2009, the Ithaca College Board of Trustees approved the Ithaca College Climate Action Plan, which calls for 100% carbon neutrality by 2050 and offers a 40-year action plan to work toward that ambitious goal.[29]
Energy profileEdit
The college purchases 14 percent of its electricity from renewable sources and offsets 3 percent of its energy use with renewable energy credits.[30]
Energy investmentsEdit
The college aims to optimize investment returns and does not invest the endowment in on-campus sustainability projects, renewable energy funds, or community development loan funds. The college's investment policy reserves the right of the investment committee to restrict investments for any reason, which could include environmental and sustainability factors.[30]
Community impactEdit
While the Ithaca College Natural Lands has issued a statement that Ithaca College should join efforts calling for a moratorium on horizontal drilling and high volume ("slick water") hydraulic fracturing, or fracking,[31] the college as a whole has refused to issue a statement regarding the issue.
Current presidentEdit
Ithaca's current president is Thomas Rochon. Thomas Rochon was named the eighth president of Ithaca College on April 11, 2008.[32] Rochon took over as president of the college following Peggy Williams, who had announced on July 12, 2007, that she would retire from the presidency post effective May 31, 2009, following a one-year sabbatical.[33]

Washington, D.C. – Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi held her weekly press conference today in the Capitol Visitor Center. Below is a transcript of the press conference:
Leader Pelosi. Good morning. In just four days, the American people will see the Affordable Care Act come into effect. On October 1st, the health insurance marketplaces will open for enrollment offering Americans, American families, more competition, more choices, and most importantly, affordable, quality health care.
A new study out this week shows that 95 percent of uninsured Americans will see insurance premiums that cost much less than expected. The average American consumer will be able to choose from 53 different plans offered by insurance companies they know and, hopefully, can trust. Premiums are even lower for workers, are even lower for workers and families who qualify for the tax credits. An openly competitive marketplace is just one way millions of Americans are seeing lower costs and higher coverage thanks to the Affordable Care Act.
Nearly 13, just think, nearly 13 million Americans received $1.1 billion in rebates from insurance companies last summer. That's because in our bill, we had the medical loss ratio that said insurance companies must spend their money insuring people and not on advertising, CEO pay, and the rest. And 6.3 million seniors have already saved $6.1 billion on prescription drugs medication. That's because we closed, are closing the donut hole. And 105 million Americans have received lifesaving preventive health care services for free. You all know, being young adults yourselves that, well, you don't need to, but for those who need to be on their parent's policy, they can do so until they're 26. That's already in effect. There are children, children are already not subjected to discrimination because of preexisting medical conditions.
So much is already in effect, but so much more will happen January 1st and people can begin enrolling on October 1st. That's transformational. [It's] about life, a healthier life, liberty, freedom, the liberty to pursue your happiness, whether you want to be a photographer, a writer, start your business, be self-employed, [and] change jobs. You're not job locked. You can follow your passion, not your policy, be job locked by your policy. It's entrepreneurial. As the President said yesterday, and is one, I think, great speech on the subject, it's entrepreneurial, it frees people up to go, again, start their own businesses and not stay where they are because of health insurance.
So, it's pretty – I think it's very exciting. I mean, can you imagine being there when Social Security first came into effect? Or Medicare when it became the law of the land and people began to enjoy the benefits of the legislation? We've had ideas, compromises made. It translated into legislation that has become public policy that will improve the lives of the American people. Very exciting!
On the other hand, in a matter of days, four days until the enrollment for the Affordable Care Act, and in just three days we will see the question as to whether our government will be shutdown. We must do everything we can to avoid that. But over and over again we find ourselves in the same question: why are we at the brink again? That's the question we are asking and people ask us as I travel throughout the country. Just to put it in context chronologically, you know, I love temporal markers: Where we are today? How did we get here?
On March 1st, you will recall, the President called the four leaders to the oval office to talk about how we would proceed with a legislative agenda that included the budget. The Republican leadership, Speaker Boehner and Leader McConnell said that they wanted to proceed under the regular order. That was their mantra. For those outside the Beltway, the regular order means you pass a bill in the House; you pass a bill in the Senate; you send it to conference to negotiate, to reconcile your differences. Of course, we've always been for regular order, so we welcomed that. We welcomed back the era of conference committees because I think that transparency is good for the process and for the American people.
So, the regular order was going to be. House passed its bill. The Senate passed its bill. And that was the end of the call for regular order. After the House passed its bill, you remember – you remember, right? That the Republicans were saying, "no budget, no pay," as far as the Senate was concerned. "When are they going to pass their bill?" It wasn't only a matter of weeks, but nonetheless, both Houses passed their legislation, and then we said: "Ok, regular order, we now go to negotiate at the conference table." And for around six months, nearly six months, the Republicans have refused to negotiate. They have refused to negotiate. And they say that the President was a 'no.' The President was following the path of the regular order that they suggested.
So by doing that, by turning their backs on what they said they wanted – and we certainly do, too, want regular order – the Republicans sowed the seeds of this dangerous, partisan path we find ourselves on today. It's impossible for Democrats to negotiate with House Republicans when they can't even negotiate with themselves. Instead of legislating responsibly, they want to live dangerously, and that's not good for the American people.
And now, with only three days left, Republicans are threatening a shutdown that will hurt our economy, threaten jobs throughout the job creation, leave our families with less security and our country with less certainty, and our economy with less stability. This is the most irresponsible way to negotiate a budget. It isn't negotiating, especially when Democrats have been ready and willing to work with Republicans to pass a responsible, balanced, bipartisan bill.
You know that, I told you, and you've seen him here, our Ranking Member on the Budget Committee, Chris Van Hollen has proposed presenting a budget that would end the devastating across the board sequester cut, reduce the deficit in a responsible way, [and] keep the government open and working for the American people. We have asked over, and over, and over again for a vote on that budget, and the Republicans don't bring it to the floor because it made so much sense. If the American people saw the alternative that it is, I think that clarity of the distinction would be made.
And what Mr. Van Hollen is suggesting is in keeping with what the Chairman of the Republican's Appropriations Committee, the Chairman, Chairman Rogers. He said: "The House, Senate and White House must come together as soon as possible on a comprehensive compromise that repeals sequestration, takes the nation off this lurching path from fiscal crisis to fiscal crisis, reduces our deficits and debt, and provides a realistic top line discretionary spending level to fund the government in a responsible and attainable way," Chairman Hal Rogers, Chairman of the Republican Appropriations Committee. The committee has always been a bipartisan committee, but even their Chairman is proposing a path that we fully subscribe to. The number is too low for government to function in a responsible way for the American people and it isn't anything that the Republican majority in the House seems inclined to follow.
If that were not enough, if that were not enough, the House Republicans' astonishing disregard for the stability of our economy goes well beyond their threats to shut down government's basic services for the American people. They are holding the entire economy hostage, and their Tea Party ransom demands come at a significant cost to our economic security. If they succeed, you can expect higher interest rates for your mortgage, your car payment, your credit cards, your student loans; higher interest rates on your business loans that used to pay employees and expand your business, the loans that grow your business; and significant blows to your 401(k) – we've been through this again – when the stock market reacts.
House Democrats agree with the President: the full faith and credit of the United States of America is nonnegotiable. You can have any conversation you want, but threats and willingness to default – mere discussion of it lowered our credit rating two years ago. The ideology of the Republicans is a luxury the American people cannot afford, especially when it comes to putting in doubt the full faith and credit of the United States of America. That is why House Democrats and the leadership of Deputy [Democratic] Whip Peter Welch, as you saw him profess this week, are calling for a clean increase in our debt limit. One hundred eighty-six Democrats have signed on to prevent another GOP-manufactured crisis. Regular order. Oh, never mind. Uncertainty within their own conference. We don't even know what we're going to vote for from one minute to next because I don't think they know what we're going to be voting on from one minute to the next and the threat to the full faith and credit of the United States of America.
It is beneath the dignity of the first branch of government, the legislative branch. We have a responsibility to come here, to represent our districts, to advocate for our point of view, and to come to terms with what compromise will work for the American people. Any questions?
Yes, ma'am?
Q: Have you had any conversations with Speaker Boehner? And do you have any plans to?
Leader Pelosi. I speak with, I see the Speaker and speak with him about this. And he, I mean, I have a great deal of respect for him, for the office he holds. He's my friend. I have not received any – I'm just trying to think, I don't know. I mean, I speak to him if I see him, or we speak by phone with an intentional. You know. I mean, in other words, we've had a number of conversations. And I just say, you know: "Don't expect us to be helpful when it comes to the debt ceiling because we don't think that's negotiable." But let's see what…
Q: What about the CR, though?
Leader Pelosi. Let's see what we can do, working together, for the CR, but the path that they're on is one that just gets farther and farther away from any – but you know what, let's just see what they send. I don't know. And in all fairness, I don't like – I'm not, again, I respect the Speaker; I respect his role and I respect the confidentiality of our conversation, only to say we stand ready to help on one, but not to take down the full faith and credit of the United States of America. I don't know that they even know what they're doing. So, it's impossible to say how we might react to something that they don't even know yet what they're going to suggest.
Q: Democrats have done a very good job of holding fast and being disciplined on such things as the Farm bill and other things, not helping them out. I guess, I suppose. Is this a different scenario?
Leader Pelosi. It's not about helping them out. It's about standing up for the American people.
Q: But the Democrats have been very disciplined…
Leader Pelosi. Right.
Q: …in sharing that.
Leader Pelosi. Right.
Q: Is this a different moment in the CR fight? You said you are willing to help them out. Are Members allowed to? Do you think it will come to that? And will you allow your Democratic Members to sort of bail them out of this?
Leader Pelosi. It isn't a question of "allow." Members will vote the way Members will vote. But nobody can say what will happen until we see what they're going to propose. We had hoped that the Republicans in the Senate, that the tail would not be wagging the dog there to the point that they couldn't bring up the bill last night, but the tail did wag the dog and so the bill won't come to the floor for another couple of hours. Probably an hour and a half. Then, we'll see after that how the Republicans will react to that. And people make judgments. Again, nobody can tell you how they're going to vote unless they know what it is they're voting on.
But I do think that they'll get – I don't think they'll get any support. Well, you see 186 Members signed the letter, and many more who don't sign letters are there on the debt limit. So that, again, is nonnegotiable. The other, we'll see. We'll just see.
Q: Do you think a shutdown is more likely now than you did a few days ago?
Leader Pelosi. I hope not, no. I'm always optimistic. I'm always optimistic. Every day is a new day. You think what could, you know, what path could be taken? I mean, look: this leadership on the Republican side has brought bills to the floor, have not had the majority of the majority there. Fewer than 40 of them voted for Sandy aid, for example. Fewer than 40.
Q: Forty nine.
Leader Pelosi. Huh?
Q: Forty nine.
Leader Pelosi. On one amendment, but on the powerful amendment that really matters. But so fewer than 50, ok, on any Sandy Aid. Fewer than 50. So, you know, that's like 20 percent, what, of their conference? Twenty-five, 20 percent of their conference voted for Sandy aid. Not anywhere near 51 percent.
A majority of them, in a strong way, voted against the Violence Against Women Act. And yet, because we made the issue too hot to handle, they had to bring it to the floor 600 days after its authority expired and 90 days after Sandy. I mean, very late and overdue. But nonetheless, they all largely voted against both of those measures. You know the fiscal cliff vote, another budget bill, and what happened there.
But in any case, it appears that there is a solution. It's bipartisan and everybody had their say [and] made their point. And again, beyond that, they are a luxury the country cannot afford.
Q: Madam Leader, how important is it for House Democrats to have even just a short term CR be above sequestration level? And do you think, if it comes to it, a shutdown would make a debt ceiling fight less likely as many folks are starting to…
Leader Pelosi. I just can't buy into a government shutdown. You know, again, as I say, I wouldn't be able to sustain the energy level, the intellectual challenges all the time if I thought we are on the path that it looks like we are on. But how do we get off it?
So, let's hope that sanity will reign, that what the Senate turns over, everyone will have had a chance to make his or her point, and then we can make progress for the American people. We would love to see split the difference on what we all agree to in the Budget Control Act in a bipartisan way. The $1.57 [trillion] figure versus the $988 [billion]. Let's split the difference at one point, what, 17, something like that? Mr. Hoyer would like to see that happen, as would I. And he would like to see that we eliminate sequestration altogether. We'd like to go to a place like that, but I don't know if Republicans are likely to compromise.
Q: But do you think it's important even for say one month or two months to hold out on that? I mean, there is some debate as to that's…
Leader Pelosi. Hold out on what?
Q: Hold out in having a budget level above sequestration even in the short term.
Leader Pelosi. Well, we'll see what the Senate sends back to us, and we don't have, you know, we're talking about a matter of hours. We're talking about a matter of hours. And what we'd love to see, of course, is the Senate send the bill back. They've made their point. They may feel confident about the progress they made on the fighting, the fight on, you know, their reaching their goal of putting your medical decisions in the hands of insurance companies, back into the hands of insurance companies because that's what this is all about. And now, let's go forward.
I mean, most people, don't you? In your work and all the rest, something happens; you make your attempt; it doesn't work; and how long do you just bang your head against the wall at the expense of our country? So, let's just see what they send. As I said to you yesterday and the day before and all the rest, it's really hard to talk about, speculate on where Members will be and how we will work together and build our consensus when we don't even know what the Republicans will send us.
You and then you.
Q: Madam, what is the functional effect in terms of getting an eventual agreement if what transpires over this weekend is a much shorter term CR that brings the whole process closer to the debt limit so that those things become a little more congealed, I'll say, closer together? What is the functional effect of that from where you sit if those become one big negotiation?
Leader Pelosi. Closer together. Well, in fact, they were closer together. They were on the same path. They were in tandem. And then the Republicans realized that they couldn't get their people to vote to raise the debt ceiling no matter how much baggage they attached to that engine. So look, the full faith and credit of the United States of America is not something that should be tied to closing down government. The closer it gets, the more unreasonable it gets [and] the more irresponsible it gets.
So, I would hope that the scenario described is not one that we come to, because it's two different subjects. It's two different subjects. Yes, they're all about budget, but one is the full faith and credit of the United States of America, and the other is a priorities debate on spending and saving and growth. They all should be about growth, and everything that the Republicans are talking about. Whether it's not lifting the debt ceiling, or making the cuts they want to make without making the investments that we should be making, it's all about slowing growth. And we'll lose a million jobs as it is with their $988 [billion], with that sequester number. We'll lose a million jobs. Some say 1.6 million. I'll be my usual conservative self and say one million on that subject, most defensible number.
So, this is about, this is silly. This is maybe – they didn't get some orientation on how serious the work is that we do here, and clearly, they are a manifestation of what President Washington cautioned against when he left office, which were political parties at war with their own government. And that is what we have wagging the dog; the tail wagging the dog of the Republican party now.
Yes, sir?
Q: Madam Leader?
Leader Pelosi. Chad?
Q: Last line of questions. Thank you. You've been into some of these legislative 'cul-de-sacs' before when we've had a crisis. Something has to be done by a time certain, but the other point that was made a moment ago, are you surprised that we are this late in the game and that there is not back and forth with the White House, back and forth meetings down at the White House, you and Speaker Boehner and Reid and McConnell going down, back channel talks between your Chiefs of Staff and the, you know, Chief of Staff on Boehner's side? I mean, none of that seems to be happening. That seems very strange at this point.
Leader Pelosi. Well, it's very strange, especially in light of the fact that in March. On March 1st in the Oval Office, the Republican leaders said they wanted regular order. And regular order is you pass the bill; we pass the bill; House passes a bill, Senate passes a bill; we go to the table. And seeing what happened there, we were very pleased because, as I said: "Regular order is what we come here to do." It's in the Beltway way term, but it's fraught with meaning, until you abandon it, and then it becomes confusing to people.
Q: Why has this been abandoned?
Leader Pelosi. Because they won't go to conference. They will not go to conference. They will not negotiate. And typical of them, they say: "We won't go to conference to negotiate, to reconcile the difference between the House and Senate bills," which are quite different. And then they say: "The President won't negotiate." The President is always negotiating. And bravo for him for declaring that the full faith and credit of the United States is not negotiable, but everything else is the normal discussion that you have.
And so, I think you see what is happening here is they can't even come forward. What they say in the morning doesn't exist in the evening. As I say, they can't even negotiate with themselves, much less with anyone outside because there is not a talking point. You know, really, let's clear the air with this. We have a responsibility to pay our bills. A large part of the deficit that is being subjected to the debt limit increase was amassed during the Bush years. Find me, please, one statement that any of these people made about the deficit and its rapid growth under the Bush Administration. And the change from when President Clinton was President, four – depending on how you measure it – or five of his last budgets were in balance or in surplus.
President Bush comes in with his failed economic policies, grows the deficit, two unpaid for wars, a prescription drug bill that gives away the store to the pharmaceutical industry, and tax breaks to the wealthiest people in our country who do not create jobs. We support the middle income tax cuts. We all do. But the high end does nothing except increase deficit.
Did you ever hear any of these endangered species budget hawks saying, boo, hoo, woo, or anything else that hawks say at that time? They simply did not. And so, now President Obama comes in and the deficit is coming down at a very rapid rate, being half by, what, the end of this year of what it was when he became President. He said he would cut it in half in four years; it will be closer to five, largely because they have resisted his job creation initiative. But nonetheless, that's the path that we're on. And the deficit is coming down because of the slowing down of the rapid increase of medical costs to our economy. So, people are working on this. People care about the deficit.
When President Bush became President, in just a few years, he had the biggest fiscal swing in the history of our country, a path of $5.6 trillion to a surplus, to $5.6 trillion to deficit – $11 trillion plus change.
So, we all care about the deficit. And how we reduce it, is by growth; more revenue coming in because more people working, and better jobs, more opportunity. How we reduce it is to have more – let's take a look at our tax code and see where we can have savings then. Why should we be giving $38 billion in tax credits to Big Oil? So that, that's an incentive for them to drill and make a trillion dollars in profit, and then say: "We're going to cut education rather than eliminate Big Oil." And that's part of their policy. And then we have to put everything to the scrutiny of this is work. As the money that with the investments they were making, are they, let's reevaluate our priorities, their effectiveness, and cut cost where we can. But that's what you go to the budget table to do, and that's where they refuse to go.
And why did they refuse to go? Because they're afraid of the contrast that the transparency of a conference committee will reveal. The differentiation between our statement of values about how we grow our economy, reduce our deficit, and make our future better, investing in the future versus the Republican budget, which voucherizes Medicare. I won't even go into the whole litany of bad things that it does.
So confusion is their friend, and they like the confusion rather than the clarity of going to conference. Because they took that step, after saying that's the path they wanted to go down, as soon as those first two steps were taken, they made an about-face – and one to take us on the path that is very harmful to growth and can have serious consequences for our economy. I hope it doesn't happen. We'll see.
To end on a happier note, because I think we're ending. You said last question, right, Chad? Okay.
How can I resist another chance to talk about Oracle Team USA for their extraordinary victory in the 34th America's cup, the oldest trophy in international sport. Once again, in San Francisco, the race made history with AC72s, the fastest catamarans the competition has ever seen. I wish you could have been there to see some of it. Perhaps you were. Nineteen races over 15 days. The longest time, the longest number of days on record, the most race days. The first-winner-take all final race, that it came down to the last race in 30 years. After trailing one to eight, after trailing one to eight, Oracle Team USA surged ahead to an unprecedented eight straight races to once again hold the America's cup high above their heads. It's a beautiful sight: "USA, USA!" We were there cheering them, but it wasn't on days when we made much of a difference, but huge crowds that amassed there as the races picked up, brought us to victory, and that was what was exciting about it.
I have to thank Larry Ellison for his vision to democratize the race. Nobody knows much about the America's Cup because I mean – people do, who follow it – but most Americans, because it was always at sea. You went out there open your yacht or your sailboat or whatever to see it. But anyone who could see San Francisco Bay could see the race. As I said, it went from white caps to blue collar and that was pretty exciting. Our mayor, Mayor Lee, our former mayor, Gavin Newsom, Mark Buell, all the people who worked locally to make it a success, we're very proud of all of them, and it's something pretty exciting going from eight to one to nine to eight, don't you think? One of the biggest comebacks in sports history. I know you're all interested in sports so…
Q: And your Giants did not come back this year, much like the U.S. team?
Leader Pelosi. Say what?
Q: I said your Giants did not come back, rally, miraculously like…
Leader Pelosi. We have an every other year program. Two of the past three and maybe three of the five.
Q: Niners won, though.
Leader Pelosi. Niners won last night. Oh, my God, thank God, at last. We had a hard time getting it here, though. At home, they said: "Just go to ABC; it's on ABC." But not here, or CBS, I think. But it wasn't. It was not here. So in any event, more on sports, more on sports later.
Thank you all very much.

anyone else pre pay their order for copy of tunzis cool clips dvd#2[ i think we are going to be diaapointed again] , i sure was disapointed with vol 1, also look forward to my copy of ROCK IN BLACK [sr label] cd, i was told that they are only pressing 500 copies, aparently this will be very hard to get, the guy i;m ordering from in montreal , will have only 8 copies to sell, again i hope we all get our wants this year.
I have no idea if it's pro footage, i wanted to get it from him but he hasn't replied to my email. So i guess that's not a good start. I just did a search for Elvis DVD Madison Square garden and found him that way.
Elvis at 21 Book
?...the image is one thing and the human being is another...it?s very hard to live up to an image.?
This might sound silly but I want an Elvis Barbie doll, Mattel. I don't care if it's "Barbie Loves Elvis" or that Eagle Jumpsuit one. I found a 68 comback one on ebay and people are really battling over it!
I won that Elvis 68 Comeback 30th Anni. doll This is how it looks:
Can't wait to get it. Y'all think it's worth $31.00?
Last edited by Awickedreigndrop; 02-20-2007 at 10:48 PM.
It is worth on how much a collector is willing to buy that item. Never go by price guides. Go by what is in your heart on how much you are willing to pay. For me I have the ones that came out by Hasbro. I only have two of the three dolls. I am missing the Jailhouse Rock doll. I got the 68 Special and Teen Idol dolls. The other one I might get when I pay check comes in.
The cbs tapes and all the footage that was shot for that special..

Hi Awickedreigndrop,
That is one of the cutest things I've heard in a long time, I didn't know they made them, either (I've never had a real barbie doll, either ) lol
So, are you buying your Elvis doll a mate?
P.S. I think it is worth more than $31.00.....congrats!
What do I want?? Anything that's NOT the CBS EIC footage or a soundboard recording.
I would however, like a sound/package upgrade of the original EIC soundtrack album. Hopefully, FTD will do it someday.
THere So much I want , I still stuck With 8/13/70 Dinner show my main thing, i got copy of CBS special.
I never Heared Of Rock In Black, It's Concert Or Studios Stuff?
