Good afternoon.
Welcome to the 2013 State of the University address. We typically try to have this event earlier in the semester – during the first couple of weeks of September. But it seemed fitting this year to use the State of the University as the inaugural event for the grand reopening of our historic and iconic building – Academic Hall. We are using today's event not only to report to you on the state of Southeast Missouri State University, but also as an opportunity for faculty, staff, and several of our students to have the first look at our renovated landmark building. It also gives us the opportunity to publicly thank and applaud all of those here at Southeast who played a role in making today happen.
As you already know, today's event has become a tradition to afford the President the opportunity to update our faculty, staff, students and friends on our accomplishments and to thank you for all you've done to make this a successful year. This event also gives Chartwells an opportunity to show their appreciation to you by providing what is commonly called "the shrimp boat reception" following the presentations.
Today's celebration of the grand reopening of Academic Hall has also provided the opportunity for Board President Doyle Privett to publicly provide the Board's appreciation for what you do every day and their outlook on the state of the University.
To celebrate the grand re-opening of Academic Hall, our Publications Department has developed the booklet that you received when you came in this afternoon. As you will recall, we typically have a printed piece that celebrates our accomplishments for the previous year and highlights our broad-based goals for the upcoming year. The piece you received today highlights our accomplishments NOT just for the past year, but celebrates our successes over the past five years. And truthfully, it was very hard to narrow those to just the few that fit on pages 10 through 16 of your booklet. We're going to talk about a few of those accomplishments today, but before we do, we need to celebrate another tradition here at Southeast, and that is to welcome the new members of the Southeast Missouri State University community.
Would all of those who started their Southeast employment after September 2012 please stand. Please join me in welcoming these new members of the Southeast Missouri State University community.
For the past several years, we've lived with an awful lot of that orange construction fencing around our campus. In response to an aging infrastructure and deferred maintenance and repair issues, our Board of Regents worked cooperatively with Student Government, to implement a general fee to fund $58.2 million in bonds for several projects, including
· Academic Hall Renovations ($24 million, including dome)
· Magill Hall Renovation/Addition ($17,952,593)
· Power Plant conversion to natural gas ($6,080,600)
· Additional deferred maintenance priorities
You may have noticed from news reports that other colleges and universities, like Missouri State, are now following our lead and working on bond issues for facilities.
While we now see the fruits of our labor – new classrooms and laboratories in Magill Hall; cleaner air and no more ugly coal piles in back of the Power Plant; a fabulous new residence hall on the north end of campus; and this magnificent updating to our beloved Academic Hall, we know the last two and a half years have been difficult for many of you here on campus.
The reality is that the construction and remodeling of Academic and Magill Halls are dreams come true. But the dust, noise and confusion during this process has often seemed more like a nightmare to many of you. Remodeling creates mess, and that mess spills over to the entire campus. Desks, files, and faculty and staff in those buildings had to go somewhere during construction, and that place was usually somewhere else on campus that was difficult to access. Having numerous offices and items out of place can be very stressful.
Many of you moved out of old out-dated offices in Academic Hall into cramped, sometimes noisy, temporary offices in a variety of locations throughout the campus.
You experienced less than ideal environments,making it difficult sometimes to get things accomplished the way you'd perhaps prefer.
Those of you in Magill Hall suffered through not only the relocation issues, but also the noise, dust, and commotion of having half your building shut down while the other half was under renovation and/or construction.
And yet, you not only persevered – you thrived and found new ways to work, creating a dynamic culture and work environment that was collaborative and creative.
We want to thank all of you for your patience, your cooperation, your ingenuity, understanding and flexibility. Would all of those who have been displaced at any time over the past 2 ½ years due to the renovations and construction in Magill Hall or Academic Hall please stand and recognized? Thank you again for all you've accomplished this past 2 ½ years under less than ideal situations.
We kicked off the celebration of the grand reopening of Academic and Magill Halls this morning with a combined Board of Regents and City Council tour of both buildings, followed by a Board of Regents meeting.
So we are very privileged to have the members of the Board with us today, including the president of the Board, Mr. Doyle Privett of Kennett. Mr. Privett has served as a Board member for more than 14 years. He was first appointed to the Board of Regents in December 1994 by Missouri Governor Mel Carnahan to fulfill an unexpired term, and was reappointed in 1997 and served until January 2004. In April 2009, Mr. Privett was again appointed to the Board by Missouri Governor Jay Nixon to serve a six-year term, and was elected president of the Board in December 2012.
He received his bachelor of science in accounting degree from Southeast in 1973, and is a certified public accountant who currently serves as chief financial officer for Kennett National Bank.
He is a member and past Board member of the Missouri Society of CPAs and served as president of the Southeast Chapter of CPAs. He is a member of the board of directors of Kennett National Bank, and serves as chairman of the advisory committee of Southeast's regional campus in Kennett.
He has been married to his wife, Bonnie, since 1974; they have two children, Brian and Brooke, who are both also Southeast graduates. Brian and his wife recently had a new son, Evan, who we hope will be a member of the Southeast Freshmen Class of 2031.
To bring you greetings from the Board of Regents, please welcome, the President of the Board of Regents, Doyle Privett.
Thank you, President Dobbins, and on behalf of all the members of the Board of Regents, I want to welcome you to the grand reopening of Academic Hall. This is such a special occasion and to have the opportunity to be involved in this State of the University event and the Grand Reopening of Academic Hall is truly an honor for all of us.
We are equally impressed to watch this exercise that showcases the amazing loyalty and longevity just displayed by those of you who spent quite a bit of time standing. We certainly know how committed so many of you are to Southeast Missouri State University and we appreciate your dedication.
Before we proceed further, I do want to make several introductions. As you can see, joining us today to mark this historic University event are members of the University's Board of Regents. I would ask that Board members please stand and remain standing and please hold your applause until all have been introduced:
Ms. Kendra Neely-Martin from St. Louis, vice president of the Board of Regents
Mr. Daren K. Todd of Kennett
Mr. Thomas M. Meyer of Cape Girardeau
Mr. Jay B. Knudtson, former Cape Girardeau mayor and our most recent appointment to the Board of Regents
Mr. Kevin Magnan of Festus, student regent
I know I speak on behalf of all the Board when I tell you how truly amazed we have been at how well the historic elements of this building have been preserved. This is just a phenomenal renovation and we want to say thanks to several people who have been instrumental in the success of this project, and all the other ongoing projects, including the restoration of Dempster Hall after the July fire. I'm going to call on a few people to stand and be recognized today because I believe we all owe them a debt of gratitude for their dedication to this project. Would you please stand when I call your name and please hold your applause until all have been recognized?
First, Kathy Mangels, Vice President for Finance and Administration, would you please stand? We are indebted to Kathy for her overall leadership on the entire bond project – the administration of the selling of the bonds, and the overall supervision of the Academic Hall, Magill Hall, Boiler Plant, Dempster Hall, and new residence hall projects.
Angela Meyer, Director of Facilities Management – this is a person who has had a tremendously full plate over the past two and a half years, but who has done an extraordinary job of supervising all these projects, in addition to the day-to-day Facilities Management challenges.
Carolyn Figliolo, Facilities Management Project Director for Academic Hall
We also want to recognize the Magill Hall Facilities Management Project Manager Lisa Howe. Lisa would you stand?
Besides Magill's construction and renovation challenges of doing half a building at a time, the project posed additional challenges in that almost 20 years ago, Americium, a radioactive chemical element, was spilled in that building and the spill was only discovered in the early 90s. So in addition to recognizing Lisa for her work, we would be remiss if we did not recognize Dr. Walt Lilly who has spent more than a decade working on ways to not only clean up that spill, but to clean it in ways pleasing to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Dr. Lilly, would you please stand? And assisting Dr. Lilly for the past several years has been Dr. John Kraemer, director of the Center for Environmental Analysis, and Autumn Gentry, our Safety and Environment Officer.
Would all of you please show your appreciation to these folks for their outstanding service to these many projects?
We also want to thank several other groups for their outstanding work and support on these projects. As if all these bond projects did not keep you all busy enough, on Monday, July 15th, the unthinkable happened when the roof of the Dempster Building caught fire. We are very fortunate that there were few students in the building at that time and all those in the building got out safely.
I understand that it seemed like an agonizingly long time before the Cape Girardeau Fire Department arrived, but in actuality, it took less than 20 minutes to extinguish the fire. Again we were fortunate that the fire was contained to the roof area and it did not set off the sprinkler system. From the emergency communications process to the relocation process, all of you worked together to make a very difficult situation as painless as possible.
Again, Angela Meyer spearheaded the Dempster Project. But she had a lot of help from the Facilities Management Department.
Archie Sprengel, Assistant Vice President for Information Technology, and his staff - Rodger Chisman, director of Telecommunications, and Lenny Burford, manager of PC Networking and Maintenance. Would you gentlemen please stand? You can only imagine the miles of wiring, the number of Lan drops and wireless routers, the planning and implementation it has taken to prepare Academic and Magill Halls, and repair Dempster Hall, with all the computers, telephones, smartphones, tablets, televisions and video screens that will be used. We appreciate all the hard work Information Technology has put into making sure all these buildings are technologically state-of-the art for all our faculty, staff and students.
Would all of you in Information Technology and members of the Facilities Management staff who were involved in any of these ongoing projects – Academic and Magill Halls, the Boiler Plant Conversion, residence hall construction, or the rehabbing after the Dempster fire - please stand. Would you please join me in showing our appreciation?
I know I speak on behalf of all the Board of Regents when I say thank you. Thank you to those who have been affected in some way by the relocations, construction, renovations, and remodeling. Thank you to those who relocated. Thank you to those of you in all the other offices on campus who were squeezed out of your spaces, or who welcomed these interlopers into your buildings and your spaces. Thank you all for your cooperation, your patience, and most of all for your support as we have all worked to achieve the goal of updating and renovating these strategic campus buildings.
The members of the Board of Regents know that Southeast faculty and staff are loyal, dedicated, and hard-working. That is why we agreed with President Dobbins that a salary equity study should be conducted to ensure that our faculty and staff are paid competitive salaries. As you know, the Board supported the President and Budget Review Committee's recommendation last year to set aside $1.2 million to be used to implement recommendations from the salary equity study.
The salary equity study benchmarked our positions with 18 comparable Midwestern state universities and other appropriate salary studies. Today, the Board reviewed the study recommendations which were discussed campus wide for input from faculty and staff. Based on the parameters outlined in each employee group, I am pleased to announce there are 115 or 29% of the faculty eligible for an individual salary adjustment, 106 or 28% of the administrative and professional staff members, and 99 or 48% of CTS staff for a salary adjustment beginning the first of January. In the coming weeks, Vice President Mangels and our Human Resources staff will be providing each of you with the results of the study as it pertains to you.
Additionally, a salary equity study for the operating engineers will be completed by November 30th and we believe additional staff in that group will receive salary adjustments. On behalf of the Board, this is one way our Board can thank you for what you do for Southeast.
President Dobbins will soon be talking with you about the state of Southeast Missouri State University. As members of the Board of Regents, we have the opportunity to view the state of this university from a different perspective, and we unilaterally believe this is a very well-run, successful and progressive university.
We are blessed with excellent and dedicated faculty and staff, and we believe we serve some of the finest and most dedicated students in the Midwest. We hear from employers again and again that our students are well educated and have an excellent work ethic.
Today we not only celebrate the grand reopening of Academic Hall, but we also celebrate your success in making Southeast one of the top comprehensive regional universities in the country. On behalf of all the Board, again thank you for all you do and keep up the great work!
Thank you President Privett. Let's give him and the Board another round of applause for all they do in providing policies and guidance.
It is hard to believe Jeanine and I have been at Southeast for 23 years and this is the 15th State of the University address I've had the privilege to deliver. Each year, I feel more and more honored to serve as the President of this great institution. But this year, I speak to you with even more pride for what we've accomplished over the past five years and for where I see Southeast going in the next five years.
Today, as we celebrate not only the grand reopening of Academic Hall, but also the team work and the successes of our faculty and staff over the past five years, we must challenge ourselves to look to the future of our University and how we can best continue to serve the needs of our students, our region, and our nation.
As you can see from your booklet, we are using the theme "Honoring Traditions/Inspiring Success." This is the theme not only for the Grand Reopening of Academic Hall, but it also is the theme for Homecoming Weekend, and the theme for the University's comprehensive fund-raising campaign. Certainly today's grand opening honors one of the greatest traditions of this university – Academic Hall – a building which has hosted thousands of new students over its more than a century's existence. But this stately building with its domed roof, 1904 World's Fair lights, and beckoning massive columns, is also an inspiration. The renovation of this building inspires all of us to look to the future and to marvel at what changes might occur when this building reaches 200 years of age.
If you will refer to your booklet, pages 10 through 16 outline just a few of our Points of Pride over the past five years. It was extremely difficult to narrow down our major accomplishments to fit on these few six pages.
We honestly could have printed the entire book with what you all have accomplished over the past five years. You can take great pride in these successes and you can see from the inside back cover, or page 17, that your accomplishments have been recognized by wide-ranging national and international organizations, accrediting agencies, and web sites.
Certainly, as President Privett has just pointed out, one of the major accomplishments has been the successful completion of the $58 million in bond projects. But we also worked cooperatively to achieve the Higher Learning Commission's Reaffirmation of Accreditation; upgraded our services to veterans and military personnel and their families; passed a state audit with flying colors; created or enhanced more than 50 academic offerings; and strategically expanded our online academic programs. The Board of Regents, University administration, and Faculty Senate have worked cooperatively over the past several years to pass significant policy additions and revisions, including the Non Tenure-Track Faculty Appointments Policy, which sets a faculty-staffing ration of 75 percent tenure track and 25 percent non-tenure track positions.
Together, we have worked effectively and efficiently over the past five years to meet the priorities of the 2008 Strategic Plan and today we should celebrate our success.
In a moment, you'll see this last year's successes on our annual Year in Review video. But let me talk about just a few of our successes and challenges for the upcoming year.
· 1994 enrollment was 7,925 – in the last decade, enrollment has increased by more
than 50%. Total enrollment for this fall is 11,917, marking the 19th straight year
of enrollment growth for our institution and the 13th year of record breaking enrollment.
It also appears that the average ACT of full-time first-time students has increased
from 22.87 in Fall 2012 to 23.09.
· We are extremely pleased with this enrollment growth, but know that due to high school demographics, our incoming freshman classes and overall enrollments will be challenging over the next several years. We experienced record-breaking enrollments this year despite a reduced freshman class of more than 150 students. We are working on new enrollment and student success approaches to address this challenge.
· African American enrollment surpassed 1,000 for the first time ever, and international student enrollment surpassed 900 students. The progress we have made in this area is remarkable, considering we only had 315 African American students enrolled at Southeast in 1996, and our international student enrollment was once as low as 176 in 2005.
· Equally impressive is the fact that we successfully retain these students from freshman- to sophomore-level at a higher rate than the student body as a whole.
· Online courses continue to be very popular with students. The number of students taking 100% of their courses online grew from 851 (FA12) to 971 (FA13). There is also a significant increase in the number of students supplementing a face-to-face course load with at least one online course. This number grew from 2588 (FA12) to almost 3,000 (FA13). In total, 32% of our students are taking one or more courses online.
Dual Credit Online
· New Dual Credit Online format has proven to be extremely popular with school districts in the region. On opening day, there were 337 students from 23 school districts participating in this new online format. Courses offered included CH181, EN100, MA134, PY101, SO102, and US105. For the spring semester, we will be offering five dual credit online courses.
A wide variety of efforts on campus are calling attention to the importance of helping students stay in school, be successful, and graduate. In spring 2013, the Strategic Enrollment Management Committee's Retention Subcommittee, chaired by Associate Dean of Students and Director of Student Retention Trent Ball, was reconstituted.
Additionally, Southeast was one of only a couple four-year state institutions that participated in the Missouri Completion Academy in September in St. Louis. The Academy allowed us to provide ideas and use best practices to improve student success, retention, and degree completion on our campus.
Not only is it important to create an environment so that students can succeed, but one aspect of the state funding model for university appropriations is based on our retention rate. Unfortunately, Southeast in FY14 almost lost $300,000 in base budget by not meeting our retention goals.
Consequently, we will be planning and sharing with you best practices in several important ways to help students succeed. It will be imperative that we all assist with student success, retention, and graduation, especially in light of the state mandates regarding future funding of the University.
As you know, while we've been one of the leaders in the state in academic program review and finding innovative approaches to teaching and learning. We have also been aware that we could not just eliminate academic programs to meet budget needs. We must invest in the future and determine what the needs of our students and employers will be in the Year 2020. As a result of the Southeast in the Year 2020 plan, we established the Academic Visioning Committee with Dr. James Stapleton as chair.
Our goal is to seek out possible academic and instructional programs and centers of excellence based on emerging trends, issues, and opportunities. You will recall that several weeks ago, there was a campus-wide call for proposals so you could submit your ideas for new or enhanced academic programs.
Members of the Visionary Committee are now reviewing those more than 40 new ideas and working with deans and chairs to determine which might best work for our campus and our service region. I would urge you to attend the Brown Bag lunch on November 6th here in Academic Hall to hear about some of those proposals and how we will proceed with several new academic initiatives.
We are continuing to plan for the future of Southeast Missouri State University through our strategic planning process. As you know, the Strategic Plan Steering Committee, co-chaired by President Privett and me, is continuing to meet to revise our strategic plan to give us the guidance for our next five years of success here at Southeast. A first draft of the plan has been posted on the President's website, but the committee will be working on further revisions, a mission statement, and priorities.
You'll be hearing about open forums and opportunities to continue to review the draft strategic plan in the upcoming weeks.
As you know, we have a couple of vacancies at the executive level and we are currently working with search firms to find the best possible candidates. Airport interviews for our Provost position were held in St. Louis last week and the committee has narrowed the search to four candidates who will be on campus on Mondays and Tuesdays the weeks of November 4th and 11th. A news release on each candidate with their resume and campus itinerary will be posted in Newswire.
This is a very important leadership position for our campus, so I hope you will make yourself available to meet with each of these candidates in the open-forum interviews for your respective groups. I want to publicly thank the committee for their efforts and especially to recognize Dr. Hamner Hill who is chairing that committee, and publicly acknowledge and thank Interim Provost Gerry McDougall for all the positive accomplishments he has made as interim provost.
As I indicated earlier, our theme for the year, "Honoring Tradition, Inspiring Success," is also the theme for our current comprehensive fund-raising campaign. The Southeast Missouri University Foundation led by Vice President Bill Holland and the development staff have done a wonderful job raising money for scholarships and programs to support students.
When Jeanine and I came to this University in 1991, the Foundation had an endowment of $4.1 million, and had raised more than $28 million through the New Vision of Excellence Campaign. But scholarships were not even mentioned in the Foundation's annual report.
Through the generosity of the members of the Copper Dome Society, many of whom are our own faculty and staff,today the Foundation has grown to more than $70 million in net assets and our endowment allows our students to receive over $1.2 million dollars in scholarships every year.
And while that certainly helps, we will need to do even more to support our future students. We are pleased the Foundation Board of Directors authorized a comprehensive campaign be undertaken to raise $40 million to help students today and tomorrow.
Specifically, the campaign goals are $20 million for scholarships, $17 million for academic programs and $3 million for campus renovations.
Our efforts began three years ago and we have quietly, not silently, been working toward this goal. Tomorrow evening at the annual Copper Dome event, we will be announcing what we have raised to date. Additionally, we'll be thanking our faculty and staff who have donated to the University on November 6th at a special Faculty and Staff Donor Appreciation reception. I hope all of you who not only support this University in the work that you do, but who also give back to Southeast by donating to our Foundation, will plan to attend those special events.
All of these areas I've mentioned today are just a few of the many, many examples of your success during the past academic year. I would like to personally thank each and every one of you for what you do to educate, transform, and help our students be successful.
Suffice it to say, it is because of your support, your expertise, and your dedication that Southeast Missouri State University continues to be strong, prosperous, and a beacon to all in our region who seek higher education.
As in years past, the Department of Marketing and University Relations has produced a video highlighting many of the accomplishments of our University during the past year.
Baseball great Babe Ruth once said, "The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime."
So what you will view now is a short video highlighting the ways our University team played as a whole this past year. Ladies and gentlemen, "The Year in Review."(Click here to view https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLl4_eEHKpc) Thank you, Marcus Painton, Tonya Wells, and all the staff in Marketing and University Relations on a job well done! Wasn't this a great video of what you have accomplished this past year?
In conclusion, I want to assure you that while we will continue to face challenges in higher education in our state, the health, vitality, and future prospects for Southeast Missouri State University are strong and bright.
We should all be very, very proud of our University and the people and region we serve. One of our challenges for the future is to show that pride – to tell the Southeast story and to speak about what we have accomplished and what we plan to do in the future. Ladies and gentlemen, we have the right to toot our horns! We have overcome a lot of challenges, just like this century-old building we sit in today.
Our University sits among the top of all regional comprehensive universities in the nation, just as our Academic Hall with its copper dome sits at the top of the highest hill in this region.
Southeast Missouri State University is, as our alma mater says, "a beacon light to all below," and we should tell everyone we can who we are, what we have achieved, and what we can and will do to improve the lives of our students and the people of our region.
I am confident that we will continue to strategically work to educate and transform our students into the future leaders of this great state and nation.
Again, I want to express my personal gratitude to all of you who are a part of our progress and who bring dedication and optimism to our campus each and every day.
The state of our University is a reflection of the faculty, staff, students, and Board of Regents who are Southeast Missouri State University.
Now, before we dismiss, let me give you a few housekeeping details. You were given a map as you entered this afternoon, and it should provide you with an outline of all the offices and rooms.
You will find the annual "shrimp boat" reception food on the lower level of this building and we thank Chartwells for their generosity. We hope you will take this opportunity to socialize over some excellent refreshments, but also to take a tour of this magnificent building.
You can ONLY access the new Dome Room with the glass ceiling that allows visitors to see the beautiful interior of the dome from the main level elevator just down from the new Board of Regents room.
The Dome Room has limited space so only 40 at a time can access the room. You will need to go to the elevator on the main-level floor and you will be escorted into the Dome Room in groups, so please make sure you take time to see this area of the building.
There are folks in each area of the building that can answer your questions and give you historical perspective. There is an exceptional exhibit on the history of Academic Hall in one of the second floor classrooms.
Finally, I would invite you back here in the Auditorium at 5:30 p.m. for the official grand opening of the building. Board President Doyle Privett and former University presidents Bill Stacy and Kala Stroup, among others, will be our speakers for this very historic event. There will also be music provided by the University Symphony and Chorus.
On behalf of our current and future students, thank you – thank you very much - and have another Great Year!

Kenny Perry shoots 65 to lead Dick's Sporting Goods Open
- Kenny Perry birdied three of his final four holes for a 7-under 65 and a one-stroke first-round lead
- Perry holed out for eagle on No. 12 and had six birdies total in his round
- Bart Bryant%2C Brad Bryant and Joel Edwards are tied for second after each shot a 6-under 66
ENDICOTT, N.Y. (AP) — Kenny Perry's magical ride continues.
Chasing his third victory of the year on the Champions Tour, Perry shot a 7-under 65 on Friday to take a one-shot lead after the first round of the Dick's Sporting Goods Open.
Perry, the Senior Players and U.S. Senior Open winner this summer, had three birdies over the final four holes to surge past Bart and Brad Bryant and Joel Edwards.
LEADERBOARD:Dick's Sporting Goods Open
Esteban Toledo, Jeff Freeman, Rick Fehr, and Russ Cochran were tied for fifth at 67 as more than half the field broke par at the short-and-narrow En-Joie Golf Club under nearly ideal scoring conditions.
Perry's round turned with a brilliant shot at the par-5 12th hole. He holed a 6-iron from 187 yards for eagle. He also had six birdies to go with one bogey, hitting 15 fairways and putting just 26 times.
"I was 3-under par, playing nicely, cruising along," said Perry, who leads the Champions Tour in money winnings with over $1.5 million. "You have a lightning bolt hit you like that — 'Hey man, we can shoot a low score.' It really pumped me up. It really got me excited. It got me motivated. It made me more aggressive."
Just one shot behind, it felt like the good old days for the Bryants — save the aches and pains. They were tied for the lead until Perry came along in the final group.
"Someone looked at the scoreboard and said, 'Man, that Bryant, he must be good,' " Brad said, smiling broadly. " 'He's leading the tournament and went back out for 18 more (holes).' "
Bart, at 50 a rookie on the senior tour, is trying to recapture a lot of what he lost at the end of his PGA Tour career, when two wrist surgeries kept him away from the game for three years.
"It was frustrating. It was tough. I was out for a good three years and well over two that I couldn't even putt or chip or anything," Bart said. "Honestly, I really thought that I was probably done. It was a long three years. Just to be out here playing, it just feels so good."
Bart birdied No. 2, hitting sand wedge to about 10 feet right of the hole and made a good putt after missing one on the opening hole. At No. 12 he hit to 6 inches out of a greenside bunker and made another birdie, then hit 5-iron at the par-3 14th hole to 15 feet and made that. He capped the round with a 30-foot birdie putt on the closing hole.
"When I first came out here this year, I didn't have a lot of game," said Bart, whose best finish so far this year is a tie for fourth two weeks ago at the 3M Championship. "My golf muscles were not built back up. I just wasn't back at the level that I was when I left, or even close. As the year's gone on, I've gotten a little bit stronger, I've lost a little bit of pain, and I'm starting to get some of those shots back in my arsenal, so I feel like I'm kind of creeping in on some really good golf and maybe having the ability to compete. To win out here is very tough."
If not for a bogey at the par-3 fourth hole, Brad Bryant would have had a share of the lead. Still, despite a bad right foot that hobbled him all last year and an operation that has not provided any improvement to his health, Brad had a stellar round. He made three putts inside 6 feet, chipped in from 18 feet for birdie at the par-3 14th hole, and closed his round with a 12-foot birdie putt at No. 18.
Happy with his round. Even happier with that of his brother.
"Seeing Bart up there is always a good thing. He's world-class," Brad said. "It was really unfortunate that his wrists basically disintegrated. All the cartilage just went away and the doctors couldn't figure out why.
"I had a nice career on the PGA Tour, but I never was good as Bart. He was top 30 in the world for a couple of years. If he could get back physically, just healthy, every time he's been healthy he's really played well."
Edwards started strong, rolling in a 20-foot birdie putt at No. 2, then smoked the back nine with four birdies to match his best round of the year. Since tying for seventh at the Principal Charity Classic in early June, his best finish has been a tie for 35th at the U.S. Senior Open.
"It was a good, solid round. It was very important for me mentally to get that under your belt and see if you can do it again," the 51-year-old Edwards said. "It's been a long time since I played that well. That's exciting."

Seven jabs and one back kick
Start with your left foot in front, right foot in back, toes pointing forward, and hands by your face. With a slight bend in your knees, extend your left arm for a jab and then bring it back to your face. Then, rotate your back heel and throw your cross jab with your right hand and bring it back to your face. Do this jab-cross combination four times and then kick your right foot back for a back kick. Consider this one repetition. Do five repetitions for three sets.
Side kick with squats
Start with your feet hip-width apart and arms relaxed. Turn your left heel so it's facing the right and your toes are facing to the left. Then, flex your right foot and lift it up for a side kick. Think of this kick as an out-in motion. Then, bring your feet hip-width apart, knees in line with your toes, and do one squat. Consider this combination one repetition. Do three repetitions for three sets.
Two jabs with an air jack
Start with your feet hip-width apart and hands up by your face. Pivot your toes to face the right and perform two right jabs to the right. Then, reset in the center to gain energy and lift your arms up like you're doing a jumping jack, except jump up for the air jack. Consider this combination one repetition. Do three repetitions on the right and three repetitions on the left. To modify, do a jumping jack instead of an air jack.

Fencing is one of the most expensive requirements for ranchers. This is especially true since the cost of metal wire fencing has drastically increased in the last two years. Fences also have ongoing maintenance costs, when they must be repaired because of livestock pressure. In addition to such maintenance costs, ranchers also risk the loss of livestock to predators and highway traffic when fencing goes down. So many ranchers are switch from the traditional barbed wire to electrified high-tensile fencing that sends a powerful shock to predators outside the perimeter and to livestock inside the pasture.When electric fences were first introduced, they were powered by either a connection to an AC power supply or a 12-volt battery. But now ranchers are installing solar powered electric fence chargers much more frequently. A 12-volt battery eventually runs down and needs to be recharged or replaced, while an AC power supply is simply not available in remote ranch areas. That's why livestock ranchers are installing solar fence chargers much more frequently. In addition, a solar charger is powered with free energy from the sun. Many solar chargers cost between $300 to $400 for the initial installation cost, but thereafter make no dent in the rancher's electric bill. So a solar charger is a very cost-effective fencing solution when installing an electrified fence.A solar fence charger is ideal for fencing those medium to large size and remote areas to keep livestock in and predators out with 8000+ volts. Many solar chargers will electrify 25 to 30 miles of fencing. They also include a 12-volt battery that electrifies the fence at night and on cloudy days. In fact, many solar chargers can store enough energy to power an electric fence for 2 to 3 weeks without sunny days. For added security when fencing large animals, such as cattle and bison, it's best to electrify at least 2 wires in a four to six strand fence.A rancher simply needs to hang the solar charger in a sunny spot, install non-insulated fence tape or wire. Then drive a ground rod into the soil, connect up the charger, and turn it on.When shopping for a solar powered electric fence charger, make sure that it has a two-year warranty that cover defects in materials and workmanship. Many companies will also offer free shipping within the continental United States.

In a neighboring city, there is a development that got started right before the housing market crashed. You can tell they had big dreams for this neighborhood. It was supposed to be the premier development in town- with horse riding trails up and down the rolling hills. In theory, it was good- it just didn't work out that way. As it is now- there are a few houses back there and an enormous stable and horse training area. As we drove by the training ring, we noticed that there was a woman who was saddling up her horse. We decided to get out (except for Miles, who was dead asleep in the van) and watch the woman exercise her horse.
Here in Kentucky, there are "horse people" and "non-horse people". We belong in the "non-horse people" category. We don't really know a thing about horses other than that they look gorgeous in the fields all around our town. We live in the Saddlebred Horse Capital of the world and my poor husband has never even been on a horse.
Anyway... there we were huddled up around the fence watching this woman trot her horse around. She was nice enough to bring her horse, Tortellini, over to the fence to say hi to us. She gave the kids permission to walk around back and go through the stables and see all horses that were being boarded there. They were totally in heaven!
Then, the clouds parted, the angels started singing and we rounded a corner and saw...
... this darling little pony named Daisy. I kid you not- it only took about 0.3 seconds before I heard, "MOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!! Can we have a POOOOOOOONY?????? Oh my gosh Mom, we NEEEEEEEEEED a pony! Look how cute!!!!!"
I convinced them that we don't have room for a pony in our one car garage and that maybe we could discuss this later. Noah said he'd just ask Santa for one. After all, Santa did bring them a guinea pig so live animals are no obstacle. *sigh*
We were totally pumped up about getting to tromp through the stables and love on all the horses. As we were walking back to Kamron and Miles (who was still asleep in the van) we stopped at the fence to watch the woman exercise her horse a little more. She started trotting the horse back to where we were. I totally expected her to ask the children what they thought of the horses in the stable. Instead, that awesome stranger said, "Do you want to ride?" My kids lit up and could not stop grinning. They were rendered totally speechless and they stared at me to answer for them. There was a little bit of questioning in their eyes as they looked at me- as if to say, "Mom! Do not screw this up for us by saying no!"
Of course, we said yes and that sweet woman put the kids on the horse and let them ride.
We gave Tortellini lots of love and his owner many thanks and the kids walked back to the car saying, "Best night EVER!"
I love how a simple drive through the country turned in to such a treat- and how the kindness of a complete stranger made two kids the happiest kids on the planet! Sometimes the goodness in people just blows me away.

The online version of Grand Theft Auto V came out on Tuesday and followed the release of the console game, which won widespread critical acclaim and broke sales records.
Rockstar North, the game's makers, pre-emptively warned fans before the online game went live that "plenty of issues are bound to occur" and that huge demand will make the first few days "even more temperamental" than standard launches.
GTA V online lets up to 16 players form teams and enter the world of Los Santos to carry out crimes, take part in races, complete missions and play sports.
Rockstar will be releasing updates and fixing glitches in the coming weeks and has urged players to get in touch when problems arise.
Since hitting shelves last month the console version of the game has broken record sales, bringing in £500 million in its first 24 hours on sale and £1 billion after three days – believed to be the fastest entertainment product to reach the milestone.
This is a Future Publishing production.

Six Californias measure heading for 2016 ballot, backers say
Signatures qualify measure for 2016 vote, backers say
Silicon Valley venture capitalist Tim Draper will submit signatures Tuesday to put what could be one of the most dramatic startups ever on the ballot - a plan to divide California into six states.
Draper, a multimillionaire known as the Riskmaster, and his team are expected to announce in Sacramento that they've gathered more than enough signatures to put the Six Californias measure before state voters.
The measure, a constitutional amendment, needs 807,615 valid signatures to qualify. Because the deadline has already passed for November, the plan could end up on the November 2016 general election ballot.
Supporters would not say how many signatures they have gathered until Draper holds a news conference Tuesday in Sacramento. But they said they were confident they had plenty to spare.
Democrats have denounced Draper's idea, and worry that an outpouring of conservative support and a lengthy campaign for the proposal could hurt both Gov. Jerry Brown in November and the party's presidential candidate in 2016.
"This is a colossal and divisive waste of time, energy and money that will hurt the California brand" as well as the state's "ability to attract business and jobs," said Democratic strategist Steve Maviglio. "It's unfortunate that Mr. Draper is putting his millions into this effort to split up our state rather than help us face our challenges."
Trying to get new ideas
But Roger Salazar - a Democratic strategist who has worked for former Gov. Gray Davis, 2000 presidential candidate Al Gore and the Clinton White House, and is now the spokesman for Draper's effort - called Maviglio's take "the pessimistic view."
"California is a beautiful place to live, and any time you can get new ideas and have a conversation, it's a good thing for California," Salazar said. "If it helps to make government more responsible, that's a good thing, too."
Under Draper's plan, each of the six states would have its own government and own collection of elected officials, including congressional representatives.
A Field Poll in February showed 59 percent of Californians surveyed opposed the idea. Even if Draper can turn that around, there would be another major hurdle: The U.S. Constitution requires the approval of both Congress and the state Legislature, which is now firmly controlled by Democrats.
Under the proposal, San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose would be part of the state of Silicon Valley, which would extend to Santa Cruz and Monterey counties; San Diego and Orange counties would be in South California; Los Angeles, Santa Monica and Santa Barbara would be part of West California.
The Central Valley south of Stockton and the central and southern Sierra would be the state of Central California, while North California would include Marin and Sonoma counties and the greater Sacramento area. Rural counties in far Northern California would make up the state of Jefferson.
Doing 'something fresh'
Draper, speaking to a crowd of tech insiders in San Francisco earlier this year, insisted his plan was not - as some critics have suggested - a means of getting more Republican representation in California. He said he was simply aiming to spread Silicon Valley's spirit of innovation to the entire state, which he said has been struggling with partisanship and lack of leadership as businesses decamp for better climates.
"We have had really good people running California," he told the San Francisco crowd. "Why is this not working?
"Think of it as Sacramento being sort of ... rusted," said Draper, who is a registered independent. "We need to do something structural, something fresh. ... If we don't try, we're failing in our complacency."
Draper must now submit his petitions to county registrars, who will have eight workdays to conduct an initial check to see if enough signatures are valid. If necessary, a thorough check could take an additional two months.
Draper is no stranger to the challenges of expensive state ballot measures. In 2000, he spent $20 million on a failed measure to support school vouchers.
When he first floated the Six Californias plan in February, Draper said he didn't plan on putting a lot of money into the measure. But that changed: Draper spent $1.3 million and hired the signature-gathering firm Arno Political Consultants, which paid collectors as much as $3 per signature.
Central Valley support seen
Draper has admitted that the ballot measure is a longshot, though he said private polling shows some conservative regions, including the Central Valley, are in favor of it.
But he said can convince Californians that something must be done for a state that has "the worst-managed government in the country."
"This is not going to happen overnight," he said.

DAY 1: We meet.
I spent 20 hours on a plane. I have been in three continents and crossed and entire ocean. Many tears came that day. I cried leaving my Sadie and Noah and Kamron behind. I cried when the plane took off because I knew that my life would never be the same and I kind of liked my life before just fine. I cried when the plane landed in Kinshasa because I knew that within a few hours, I would be meeting Miles Dieudonne. My friend Cami and I navigated the Kinshasa airport like rock stars- and that is no easy feat. We asked a man in Paris if he had any tips for getting out of the Kinshasa airport alive and he said "Good luck."
We met Pastor Loma (Miles' foster father) at the airport. About three weeks prior to our arrival, Miles left the orphanage and moved in with the Lomas, who took great care of him and helped him get his passport. I was so happy to see Pastor Loma. Seeing his face brought about so many emotions.First- there was just the overall feeling of gladness that he was going to take us away from the crazy airport and then the amazing feeling of knowing that he was going to be taking me to my son! We drove in a taxi (more about the taxis of Kinshasa to come in another post) out of Kinshasa toward the Methodist-Presbyterian Hostel where we would be staying. Miles was going to meet us there. It was pitch black dark as we drove through Kinshasa but there were people everywhere. That is what sticks out in my mind about being in Congo- the sheer number of people everywhere. Thousands and thousands of people. All over the place. We asked Pastor Loma what were all the people doing. He said, "Some go for to drink the beer." That was as much info as we got about what the people were doing out on the streets.
After driving for what seemed like an eternity we pulled up to the gate of the guest house. While we were waiting for someone to come open the gate for us, a car pulled up behind us. Miles was in that car. I jumped out of our car. I saw him get out with Mama Josephine (his foster mother). She ran to me and hugged me over and over. I got a good look at Miles. The. World. Just. Stopped. I couldn't believe how small he was! He was just so tiny. At first I though that they had brought the wrong baby because he was way too little, but then I saw those puppy dog eyes and I knew that was my little guy. I wanted to run and snatch him up and love all over him, but I held back. I didn't know how he would react to me, so I took it slow. I rubbed his back a little while Mama Josephine held him. She kept telling him in Lingala that I was his mama.
We all went into the guest house together. I just couldn't take my eyes off Miles. Once we got in I held him for a second but he still wanted Mama Loma. I expected this, but it still hurt just a little. The Lomas didn't stay long- they said it was easier on the babies to get acquainted when they weren't around. I was grateful for their understanding. At the same time, I wanted to ask them a million questions. I mean, here is this child that I know nothing about. How does he like to be held. How often does he eat? Does he like to be sung to? They walked out the door and I just had to figure it all out. Once they were gone, Miles seemed to warm up. Actually I should say that he tolerated me. Miles never smiled. He just seemed to want to study me. I just wanted to stare at him too. All the emotions I had felt for months just seemed to flood me. This child who had endured God knows what was finally safe and sound and all mine! It was very late at night and Miles was sleepy, so after about an hour of staring at him and snuggling him, it was time for bed. I put on his pajamas and held him until he fell asleep in my arms. And for that moment in time- all was right with the world.

DC Universe Online is now free-to-play
At this point I have very little knowledge about this game but I'll try to learn it as I go along. If I can get past the first couple of hours without getting bored, then I'll probably keep playing.
The free version of the game does seem a little restricted compared to, say, World of Tanks, but let us not forget that DC Universe Online started out with a subscription-based model. You can still subscribe, fear not, but now there's the option to try-before-you buy.
I've currently downloaded about 10GB of the 14GB game client. Yikes! I'll probably fire up the game over the next couple of days.

I tried getting into City of Heroes and it was fun for a while but pve got stale pretty quickly and I don't think pvp existed much at all. And I would read chat and have no idea what people were talking about. It made me appreciate how daunting WoW could be to new players. DC Universe Online looks interesting, but a 10gb download just for a look for me is out of the question. Also a pity Captain America and Thor are both Marvel heroes.

I played that game right when it came out, then haven't again for several months. I've been wanting to give it a whirl again lately tho because I thought the game was awesome!
My favorite things were (1) the different outfit styles you can customize as you go, which would be absolutely essentially in a superhero game, and (2) an mmo with no auto attack and actual combo moves you have to enter made combat muuuch better than WoW. I never ever ever got bored of combat.
Oh and in my opinion, acrobatics was the best travel superpower, especially once you got acrobatic's flying ability. Running fast and the standard flying just got way too annoying to control over the course of leveling up. That's just me though.

Damn comment system... sorry about not replying earlier guys.
I tried to play it but quickly uninstalled it. I'm not even sure I'm going to write a short review of it.
I found the game to be terrible but maybe that's just me.
The character customization was pretty neat though.

New Clinton documents released
- Archivists release new Bill Clinton presidential documents
- Records include those of former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton
- Hillary Clinton may seek the presidency in 2016
The National Archives released another batch of Bill Clinton presidential documents on Friday, including records on the 2000 presidential election, that year's recount in Florida, and the activities of then-first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton.
The collection of notes, memos, and speeches features jokes Clinton made at press dinners -- including some about his wife, who may decide to seek the presidency herself in 2016.
"I think putting Hillary's office in the West Wing was a good idea," Clinton said at the 1993 Gridiron dinner. "It's a shorter walk for me."
Other records relate to then-Vice President Al Gore, the 2000 Democratic presidential nominee who lost the recount to George W. Bush after a still-disputed Supreme Court case.
In one Gore document, adviser Ron Klain urges aides to "underspin" a USA TODAY poll showing him closing the gap on Bush during the 2000 campaign and to tell reporters: "Polls go up, polls go down."
As with document disclosures last month, this group will be carefully scrutinized by journalists and political opponents as Hillary Clinton decides whether to seek the presidency herself in 2016.
STORY:Documents detail Clinton's role in husband's presidency
MORE:If Twitter is any indicator, doodles are the highlight of Clinton docs
The document dump also featured preparation notes for President Clinton speeches, including remarks after the Supreme Court decision that essentially stopped the 2000 recount in Florida and enabled Bush to claim victory.
Some include barely legible handwritten edits. In one draft, the phrase "just as a fabric torn and repaired becomes stronger than before" is crossed out. An editor calls the phrase "too negative" and the nation was "never torn apart" by the disputed election.
Other snippets: talking points prepared in case Quebec voted to secede from Canada, a discussion of whether to award the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Carl Sagan, prepared texts for Clinton comedy monologues at the Gridiron and other dinners with Washington journalists, and advice for Hillary Clinton when she attended the funeral of Princess Diana in 1997.
One proposed joke for a 1997 event got cut, a line drawn through it: "I can't stay too late, I'm starting to get nervous about leaving Al Gore alone in the White House."
In considering a medal for Sagan -- who died in 1996 -- a Clinton aide wrote in 1997 that "he was one of the very first to sound the warning on climate." The aide added: "Another good dead person is Ansel Adams. We're having trouble thinking up great living people. I guess that's everyone's affliction these days."
Another document said House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., and his backers -- swept into power after the 1994 elections -- were "not ready for prime time."
In a file on counter-terrorism, one handwritten note -- author unknown -- recommends that the State Department find "a prominent Muslim associate" to deal directly and indirectly with the United States government.
A 1997 memo from State Department aide Glyn Davies about Hillary Clinton's trip to the funeral of Princess Diana offers insight into views about the British royal family The memo said the first lady "will be the most prominent guest at the funeral and it is appropriate/expected that she make a brief statement," according to guidance Davies provided from Robert Bradtke, a U.S. diplomat in London at the time. Bradtke also advised that Clinton "answer no questions" so she wouldn't get caught up in what he described as "the increasingly 'nasty' Palace politics," Davies wrote.
Other topics in the Friday release include records on the transition to the Bush presidency, the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, records from then-health care adviser Ira Magaziner, and dealings with British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
The documents were released at the William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum in Little Rock, Ark., and on its website.
Many of the documents released Feb. 28 detailed the Bill Clinton administration's failed health care plan, led by Mrs. Clinton, as well as efforts by aides to "soften" the first lady's image.
Friday's release is the latest in a rolling series that is expected to total more than 30,000 pages this year.
These documents have previously been exempted from disclosure requirements because they involve appointments to federal office and confidential advice to President Clinton, according to the National Archives and Records Administration.
When the disclosure exemptions expired in 2013, the National Archives notified representatives of Clinton and President Obama of its intent to disclose the records. Lawyers have been reviewing the records to determine if new exemptions should apply.
Interest in Hillary Clinton's first lady years revived recently with the discovery of records from the late Diane Blair, a long-time friend of Mrs. Clinton who wrote about interviews she had conducted with her. Blair died in 2000.
Hillary Clinton, who lost the 2008 Democratic presidential race to then-Sen. Barack Obama, is considered the front-runner for the party's nomination in 2016, should she decide to run.
Most of the attention on Friday's documents focused on the jokes that aides and outside advisers prepared for President Clinton during public performances.
One joke dealt with what were then called "document dumps," reams of information that the Clinton administration provided to the press as well as congressional committees and prosecutors involved in various investigations.
One set of remarks said, "I want you to know that not only do I honor your work, but my administration has been working around the clock to help you do your jobs. What other administration would make thousands and thousands of internal memos and official documents available for your perusal?"

Winnipeg Now
Winnipeg Now is a pulse-taking exhibition in which equal weight falls on both words in the show's title: it is a measure of what art-making looks like in this city in 2012. Whether the artists are living here or away, a spirit of risk-taking and invention permeates the work.

Click here for excerpts from an interview between artist Dominique Rey and CBC's Terry MacLeod.
Winnipeg has earned a world-wide reputation as an art-producing centre and artists from here regularly exhibit internationally. Winnipeg Now brings their most recent work home: of the 13 artists in the exhibition, 12 are making new work for this exhibition. Whether it's the animated model schooner and the technicolour stratosphere of Sarah Anne Johnson's installation, Guy Maddin's shooting of a film a day for 4 days on set in the gallery, or KC Adams's porcelain forest of corporate-lit trees, Winnipeg Now will surprise and challenge audiences with work that hasn't been seen before. The city's past is its foundation; innovation is its present.
Historically, the art that Winnipeg's long-standing reputation rested on was drawing, painting, sculpture, and photography, with celebrated artists like Ivan Eyre, Don Reichert, Aganetha Dyck, Wanda Koop, Eleanor Bond, David McMillan and William Eakin. What the work in this exhibition indicates is that the younger generation of artists has adopted a more hybridized approach to art-making. The result is a collection of work that resists categorical boundaries and combines a number of art practices. Dominique Rey employs photography, video, collage, and even horticulture in her representation of a vanishing religious order of nuns. Paul Butler, who now lives in Montreal, joins video, drawing, writing, and sculpture in an installation that finds a way to record the personal dimensions of his life in a spare and elegant manner. Rodney LaTourelle, who works out of Berlin, will echo in concept and design the interior spaces of the Winnipeg Art Gallery and the inside/outside nature of our urban inhabitation.
Northrop Frye, the Canadian literary and cultural theorist, famously said that the centre is where you are. Winnipeg artists believe that, but they also recognize that there are many points of self-definition inside that centre. Winnipeg Now embodies that richness of identity; its artists articulate issues of sexual and cultural difference. Kent Monkman, a gay, aboriginal artist uses the diorama format of the natural history museum to investigate his own background, just as Michael Dudeck links the conventions of museum display with ritual performance in his role as a queer artist witchdoctor. In a more intimate way, the collaborative team of Shawna Dempsey and Lori Millan will perform unconventional readings from a story-telling corner in the gallery.
Jennifer Stillwell's large paintings occupy a space somewhere between modernism and cake decorating, while Daniel Barrow's employment of old technologies to project images onto the walls of the gallery makes him absolutely new. Finally, Marcel Dzama's fascination with Marcel Duchamp has turned his artful eye towards chess as a subject for art. Watch for the moves of his eleven foot tall turning Queen. Checkmate, all around!
Winnipeg Now will mark a new chapter in the ongoing story about how to make art outside the centre, a story that Winnipeg artists have been telling for over a century. The exhibition takes advantage of time; it builds on a past, in the present, to argue an artful future. Winnipeg Now is curated by Meeka Walsh, editor of Border Crossings magazine , and art critic and professor Robert Enright.

Nine protected areas in the European overseas territories in the Caribbean have been listed since 2010 under the SPAW (Specially Protected Areas and Wildlife) Protocol of the Cartegena Convention. The SPAW Protocol is the only legally-binding international agreement on biodiversity in the Wider Caribbean, and a key mechanism for strengthening cooperation and increasing consideration of ecological connectivity within the Wider Caribbean.
Since 2010, 16 protected areas in the Wider Caribbean have been listed in the Protocol. Among these, more than half belong to European overseas territories: six in the French Antilles and French Guiana, and three in the Dutch Caribbean islands. The listing took place after several years of developing criteria and guidelines by a dedicated Caribbean expert working group.
Being listed under SPAW means that the protected area is acknowledged for its quality and the efficiency of its conservation and management. The label can also be an useful tool to promote tourism and strengthen enforcement. Being listed also implies that the protected area is included in the cooperation programme developed by the SPAW Secretariat, and given priority for SPAW funding in view of improving management, developing science, and extending training and networking.
The process of listing protected areas under SPAW starts with countries submitting presentation reports, on a voluntary basis, on the areas they wish to see listed. The reports are then reviewed by the SPAW-Regional Activity Center and assessed by the SPAW Scientific Committee against the criteria that have been developed to that purpose, before a final decision is taken by the Conference of the Parties. For more information on the listing process and the criteria used to assess applications, see here.
You can find the list of all the Protected Areas that have been approved for listing under SPAW and the presentation reports submitted by countries to that purpose on the SPAW-RAC's website here.

Smart shopping can pay off
Smart shopping can pay off
Written by Michael Driehorst |
Every dollar does count.
And there are plenty of online resources and methods to help make sure earnings are spent wisely.
Paula Wethington has penned the "Monroe on a Budget" blog for the Monroe Evening News since January 2007. The often updated blog strives to be a resource for frugal living.
"Do not expect too much, too fast," Wethington said about how quickly people can see results from clipping coupons and other frugal activities. "It'll take about eight weeks to ramp up."
Toni-Lynn Barber of Sylvania operates two frugal shopping/couponing sites: GroceryPriceBooks.com, which she started in 2007, and The Coupon Cupboard, a forum started in 2008 where members can share couponing tips, learn about free samples and trade coupons.
Barber also maintains a blog at Grocery Price Blog.
"What you save depends on so many things," Barber told Toledo Free Press via an e-mail. "Are you brand specific? Will you only use coupons for things you buy normally? How many coupons do you have access to?
"I save over 95 percent on every trip, but I have been doing it for seven years," she wrote.
Wethington has been really serious about couponing since 2005.
Once into a rhythm, Wethington said couponing can reduce grocery expenses by up to 50 percent when combined with store sales.
Barber said there is no best method for tracking coupons and matching them up to store sales.
"Couponing isn't a one size fits all. It works best if you come up with your own method or maybe one modified from someone else's," she said.
Wethington said she clips coupons and separates them into two piles — one for her family and one that she uses for trading, to give away to friends. With her coupons, she reviews store fliers to see when products go on sale and plans her trip to those stores to use the coupon at the time of the sales.
"I normally go to two or three different stores a week. You do not have to drive all over. Match up the coupons and plan your trips based on the stores you normally pass on your errands," Wethington said.
In addition to couponing for trading and to give to friends, Wethington suggested keeping other needs in mind like school food drives and using the coupons to purchase items to donate.
Once you develop your own method, Wethington said, be smart with your weekly trips. Depending how many of the coupon fliers you look at in the newspaper, clipping coupons on a weekly basis can take 20 to 30 minutes. And, to get the family involved, Wethington suggested enlisting children to cut out the coupons.
Barber and Wethington said given time, couponing and timing purchases to coincide with store sales will pay off.
"Don't give up!" Barber stated in her e-mail. "You will not automatically save 95 percent on your bill like me. This takes time to learn your store sales, what coupons you have access to and so many other things.
"If you can go and save $20 that is fantastic. Start small and if you stay with it and be patient, in time you can save more," she said.
Wethington added, "Be very resourceful. Frugal living takes a lot of time, but these days, people have a lot more time than they do money."
