Dylan Chanter has watched the video which graphically shows his unconscious body convulsing after smashing his head on the ice during a fight on Saturday in a USHL game between the Dubuque Fighting Saints and Cedar Rapids RoughRiders.
"I couldn't believe it was me," Chanter told The Dreger Report. "I don't think it was as bad as the video looks."
Understandably, Chanter's memory of the incident is sketchy. He says he remembers the initial stages of the tilt, but little else.
"I remember being strapped into the CT scan, really confused and thinking the hospital was part of the arena," he said. "My trainer said I was unconscious for two to three minutes."
Remarkably, Chanter is doing very well and says aside from some fatigue he feels normal and strong enough to get on a stationary bike later this week. But until he sees a neurologist (next Wednesday), he won't be able to predict a full return to the Fighting Saints lineup.
Chanter says this is his second concussion. His first suffered as a 16-year-old while playing in the BCHL with the Merritt Centennials and recalls the post-concussion symptoms then being far worse.
Now 18, he appreciates the interest this incident has generated, but, sees it as a "freak accident" and says he doesn't intend on changing his style.
"This is not going to stop me from fighting again," Chanter concluded.
The 6'3 defenceman who has committed to the NCAA's University of New Hampshire Wildcats was playing in just his second game of the season after returning from a broken collarbone suffered in the preseason.

Vitamin D Toxicity in Cats
Vitamin D is vital in regulating the calcium and phosphorous balance in your cat's body. It also promotes the retention of calcium, thus aiding bone formation and nerve and muscle control. When ingested in exorbitant levels, however, this fat-soluble vitamin (i.e., stored in the fatty tissues of the body and liver) can cause serious health issues.
Chemicals used to kill rodents are the most common source of vitamin D poisoning in cats, though excessive use of vitamin D in the diet or drugs containing high levels of vitamin D can also lead to toxicity. Cats of all ages are susceptible, but young cats and kittens are at higher risk.
Symptoms and Types
Symptoms usually develop within 12-36 hours after ingestion of rodent killing agents. However, the time in which the symptoms become readily visible may vary depending on the source of vitamin D toxicity. Such symptoms may include:
- Vomiting
- Weakness
- Depression
- Lack of appetite
- Increased thirst (polydipsia)
- Increased urination (polyuria)
- Dark tarry feces containing blood
- Blood in vomit
- Loss of weight
- Constipation
- Seizures
- Muscle tremors
- Abdominal pain
- Excessive drooling
- Accidental ingestion of rodent-killing chemicals
- Excessive use of vitamin D dietary supplements
Your veterinarian will take detailed history about your cat's diet and any supplements it may be taking. He or she will also ask if your cat has access to rodent-killing chemicals at home or in your yard. A complete physical examination will then be conducted, including routine laboratory tests such as a complete blood count, biochemistry profile, electrolytes, and urinalysis.
If your cat is suffering from vitamin D toxicity, the biochemistry profile will indicate abnormally high levels of calcium and phosphorous in the blood. It may also indicate abnormally low levels of potassium in the blood along with an accumulation of nitrogenous waste products. In some cats, the biochemistry profile may even indicate an abnormally high level of liver enzymes and low levels of protein (called albumin) in the blood. The urinalysis, meanwhile, will indicate abnormally high levels of proteins and glucose in the urine.
Some patients with vitamin D toxicity also show various blood clotting derangements, like bleeding from various body sites due to excessive loss of platelets (cells responsible for the clotting of blood).
More specific testing will include measuring the levels of vitamin D in the blood and an ECG (echocardiogram) to evaluate your cat's heart. Various abnormalities, including abnormally slow heartbeat, may be found in cats suffering from vitamin D toxicity.
Vitamin D toxicity is an emergency that requires immediate treatment and hospitalization. In fact, the initial 72 hours are crucial in saving the life of your cat. If the compound containing toxic amounts of vitamin D was ingested recently, your veterinarian will induce vomiting. There are also various drugs which bind the toxic compounds and prevent further vitamin D absorption.
To maintain proper hydration and correct electrolyte imbalance, intravenous fluid therapy may be utilized. Additionally, intravenous fluids are important in promoting the excretion of calcium through urine.
In case of severe anemia, blood transfusion may be required. Secondary bacterial infections are also commonly associated with vitamin D toxicity. In these cases, antibiotics are prescribed. If seizures become a problem, your veterinarian will prescribe anti-seizure medication.
Living and Management
Due to the prolonged hospitalization required, treating cats with vitamin D toxicity is very expensive and laborious process. To monitor the progress of therapy, periodic laboratory testing is required, including determining the cat's calcium and phosphorous levels.
The best way to prevent vitamin D toxicity in cats is to keep rodent-killing agents out of your pet's reach and consult your veterinarian before changing your pet's diet and/or starting it on a vitamin D supplement regimen.
Excessive urination
An involuntary action in which the muscles contract; caused by a problem with the brain.
An in-depth examination of the properties of urine; used to determine the presence or absence of illness
A medical condition involving excessive thirst
A bundle of fibers that are used in the process of sending impulses through the body
A condition of the blood in which normal red blood cell counts or hemoglobin are lacking.
Eliminating or the material that has actually been eliminated
A type of protein that can be dissolved in water; found in milk, egg white, certain muscle, blood, and some urine.

Awesome doctor!!!!! Fixed my foot problem from a previous surgery for a neuroma. My foot feels like the "old foot" again!!!! I can't say enough positive things about him!!!

What a great experiance! I had both my feet fixed by Dr. Ledesma and couldn't be happier. Many friends said bunion surgery was horrible, and had a long recovery. Not me!! Dr Ledesma took time to explain everything he was doing, followed up after surgery and after doing exactly what he told me to do after the surgery my recovery was easy and quick. My feet are pain free after 30 years of hurting. I would recommend Dr. Ledesma to any one.

Excellent doctor. He took the time to examine my feet properly and gave a detailed explanation of treatments. Great bedside manner. I highly recommend Dr. Ledesma. I've seen other podiatrists and Dr. Ledesma is by-far the best and most thorough podiatrist I've seen. Very friendly and listens to your concerns.

My wife and I went to see Dr. Ledesma when our 8 year old complained about her feet and legs getting tired and hurting after just minutes of walking in the grocery store or any length of time on her feet. Turns out she is really flat footed. Dr. Ledesma was able to see her and perform a surgery to help her range of motion in her ankle and addressed the flat foot with an implant in the foot that helps support the arch in her foot. The entire experience was very relaxed. He explained all our options, both surgical and non surgical, and his post op care was second to none. He has excellent bedside manner and is an excellent listner. If anyone is concedering seeing him I can tell you it will be a very informed visit with a Podiatrist who utlizes the latest technology to care for his patient's.

I am a patient who traveled from Canada to see Dr. Ledesma and have him perform the EDIN procedure (Endoscopic Decompression of the Intermetatarsal Nerve),minor surgery to relieve the pain and discomfort of a Morton's Neuroma. I chose him as he was highly rated on this site, and recommended highly by the Surgical Podiatrist who developed this procedure. He was also very accessible, and very helpful in discussions that I was able to have with him over the phone and by email from Canada prior to coming to Arizona. Post-surgery, I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Ledesma. He is highly skilled, highly knowledgeable, very supportive, highly communicative and pretty much the best one could hope for in every respect in terms of treatment and patient care. I would have no hesitation in recommending him in the most enthusiastic terms to anyone seeking a highly competent and caring surgical podiatrist.

Dr. Ledesma is an outstanding doctor who is on the cutting edge of podiatry. He is incredibly knowledgeable and has a very positive, easy going personality. He will take time to answer any questions, explain all medical options and employ the best possible treatment plan. His staff is also extremely professional and courteous. He is one of the few doctors I've ever had who contacted me at home to find out how I was doing after he performed surgery on my hoof. I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Ledesma and his skills as a physician!

Shippensburg University Residence Hall History Project
Over the past fifty years, tens of thousands of Shippensburg students have called the Shippensburg's residence halls home. Beginning in 2012, Shippensburg University will begin demolishing some of the older residence halls to make way for new university housing.
The Shippensburg residence halls are not only brick and mortar—they were the spaces where students lived, studied, socialized, dreamed, loved, played, and learned. Most Shippensburg students spent more time in their residence halls than any other building on campus. The communities that flourished in these structures are a critical part of the Shippensburg story—a history that should be remembered and preserved long after the buildings have vanished into rubble.
To document and preserve that history, History professors Dr. Steven Burg and Dr. David Godshalk in cooperation with librarian Karen Daniel of the Shippensburg University Archives have launched the Shippensburg Residence Hall History Project. This effort seeks to document, preserve, and share the experiences of Shippensburg students who lived in the on-campus residence halls. We are particularly interested in documenting the history of the halls facing imminent demolition-- Lackhove Hall, Kieffer Hall, McCune Hall, the Seavers Apartments—but we would also welcome memories of life in other residence halls. In the spring of 2011, students in Godshalk and Burg's research methods classes, History 203: Theory and Practice of History, are beginning the work of researching and writing historical studies about life in Shippensburg's residence halls and the men and women who called them home.
While the Shippensburg University Archives contains a wealth of historical documents, those sources contain little information about the day to day life of students who lived in the residence halls. In order to tell those stories, we are asking Shippensburg graduates to share their stories. We would love for you to dig deep both into your memories, and perhaps memorabilia tucked into your closet or attic, to share your experiences while you were at Shippensburg. We are particularly interested in the early history of the post-World War II residence halls and student life in the 1960s and 1970s, but our goal is to document the entire span of residential life on campus. Our students will use your stories as part of their research projects, and then your materials and the students' research papers will be donated so that they can become a permanent part of the collections of the Shippensburg University Archive.
IMPORTANT: Due to confidentiality and copyright consideration, we are only able to accept materials that are accompanied by a signed release form. We ask that individuals only submit information if they are willing to share that information with the public, and if they are comfortable with the conditions described within the release form. Unfortunately, we will need to destroy all materials not accompanied by a signed release form.

Government launches £2.7m 'shocking' anti-smoking campaign
The Department of Health has returned to hard-hitting anti-smoking advertising focusing on health harms for the first time in eight years with a spot showing a tumour growing on a cigarette as it's smoked.
In an attempt to "shock" smokers into quitting, the Dare-created spot explains that smoking 15 cigarettes could cause a mutation that leads to cancerous tumours.
The Department wants to trigger an immediate response from smokers, particularly the third research found still believe the risks associated with smoking are exaggerated, by focussing on the harm cigarettes do in the short-term. Anti-smoking ads have talked of the long-term affects since 2004's "fatty cigarette" ad, which claimed smoking clogs the arteries.
Speaking at a briefing unveiling the campaign, DH marketing director Sheila Mitchell said the ad will be seen by a generation of smokers that have not been exposed to hard-hitting campaigns but have grown up in an environment less accepting of smoking as a result of the 2007 smoking ban in public places and last year's display ban in supermarkets.
"Long-term harm messages don't register. We want to focus on the short-term hidden harms and trigger a pavlovian response," she added.
The spot, part of a £2.7m campaign that also includes outdoor and online activity, has been handed an "ex-kids" rating, which means it cannot be shown during children's programming but could still be seen by children watching television with their parents.
Mitchell told Marketing Week the department is expecting the Advertising Standards Authority to receive complaints from adults claiming the spot is upsetting to children.
The Department has been rapped by the regulator over anti-smoking ads before. A 2007 campaign that featured a man dragged along by a fish hook piercing his cheek in a bid to demonstrate how hooked smokers are by their addiction was banned after receiving 774 complaints from people who found it distressing.
The campaign launches today (28 December) and will run until mid-February.
Readers' comments (4)
Smoking is very dangerous and smokers should understand this fact. Hopefully this campaign will bring about some changes, because till date all efforts seem to be in vein.
Spending money on advertising is right since it opens peoples eyes to the potential dangers of smoking however ore money should be spent on helping smokers overcome addiction which i believe to be the main problem of smoking. Many smokers wish to stop smoking yet do not have enough will power to overcome the highly adicitive nature of smoking. The Government thus should spend money on programs aimed at solving addiction.
I think it's a lazy attitude that allows smokers to say "I don't have enough willpower to quit smoking". If you had reason to quit, you'll try your damn hardest to quit. Advertising that is hard hitting like this can help to make people realise the dangers of smoking.
If I wanted to stop smoking, I would.
It's naive to think the Smoking community walk around believing they are puffing on the elixir of life.
Yes, it's harmful. But what on this planet isn't to some extent?

Voices of Giving: Christine Buttress, Esq
In the 1980s Chris became a member and a volunteer for CET's largest fundraiser. Throughout the late '80s and '90s, she also willingly devoted her expertise as an attorney to further CET's future - authoring planned giving articles for the member magazine and offering an estate planning seminar for donors.
In 2006, CET relaunched planned giving as one of its top strategic initiatives. Immediately ''on board,'' Chris proceeded to recruit 15 of the finest IRS, legal and financial planning talents from across the city to form CET's planned giving committee. Under Chris' leadership, the committee has guided board and staff in developing a phenomenally successful program. When they began in 2006, CET was aware of only 4 planned giving donors. Just 4 years later, there are 60 CET Visionaries of record.
Many of these CET Visionaries came to make their gifts to CET thanks to Chris' encouragement. She has worked with numerous clients and donors and helped them find the best ways to transform their passion for public broadcasting into lasting, perpetual support of CET. Our thanks to Chris for her seminal role in helping CET in its quest to ''engage, enlighten, entertain and educate'' our community and enrich our lives for generations to come.

Five mobile homes and a shed have been destroyed during a fire that started at a motorcycle salvage yard.The Bicycle Fire, as it's being called, reportedly started on All Bike property, which has been around since 1988. It spread quickly, causing evacuation and concern that it could grow out of control. "I went in to let my dog out and I kept the palm tree from burning. When they drug me out of there, it didn't take long. The palm tree caught up and it just it was bad," said Ron Adler, All Bikes owner. Adler says he didn't want to leave his property when fire started spreading through the thousands of antique bicycles, motorcycles and cars he owns. It was around 8:30 p.m. Saturday when firefighters first arrived. "The residence towards the back was fully involved when we got here," said Payson Fire Battalion Chief Dan Bramble. According to Bramble, it took several agencies four hours to gain control of the bicycle fire; it burned for 12. Water had to be brought in from Payson. Two-acres and five mobile homes were destroyed. The area behind the property was a major concern."There is really nothing in between this and Payson...except for forest. If this got away from us then we're off to the races and we didn't want that," said Bramble. "I could see flames when I come down off the hill out of Payson," said Sgt. David Horning, with Gila County Sheriff's Office. Horning says a number of propane tanks exploded as a result. 40 people sought refuge inside a shelter set up by the Red Cross and seven spent the night, including Adler, who hopes to rebuild."Hang in there. There's a lot of bikes that are still savable and cars that are still on the property that can be redone," said Adler. The cause of the fire remains under investigation. State Route 87 is open to traffic despite the fire.

The Addison Lee Story
John Griffin – Chairman
After beginning training as an accountant, John was forced to give up his apprenticeship and focus his efforts on rescuing his father's business, working as a minicab driver to make ends meet during this period. Having helped his family firm and following the birth of his two sons, John was inspired to start his own business and came to the conclusion that he could run his own minicab business a lot more successfully than the companies he had worked for.
The name Addison Lee was chosen because 'A' is always at the top of the phone book. A colleague mentioned to John that people thought his address, Addison Gardens, sounded very posh. John added 'Lee' to complete the name and so Addison Lee was born.
Founded in Battersea in 1975 with just one car, Addison Lee now carries 10 million passengers and couriers 1 million deliveries a year.
The secret of Addison Lee's success lies not only in its commitment to technology but also in the company's respect for the driver — a principle founded by John's experiences of the long hours he himself worked as a driver.
Despite its size, Addison Lee is still very much a family company. The two young boys who were John's inspiration to start the company are now both married with two sons each and sit on the board as John's fellow directors — Liam Griffin is MD, Kieran is Marketing Director. John's partner, Daryl Foster, is the son of his original partner Lenny, who sadly died in 1992. Daryl has been with the company since 1977 and is now Chief Executive. John's nephew, Peter Ingram, as IT Director has controlled and managed some of the most radical technological changes in the transport industry.
Business and the Environment
John has always taken an interest in the wider issues associated with his business. In 1976 John formed the Private Hire Car Association in response to the Miscellaneous Provisions Act 1976. As Chairman of the association,
John was instrumental in helping minicabs transition to a fully-fledged, licensed industry.
John is still chairman of the Private Hire Car Association and is also president of the Private Hire Board.
John has also been appointed a Skills Ambassador for London by the Learning and Skills council, this is in recognition of the work he has done promoting young apprenticeships and supporting training of young people.
John has become an active member of the Green500 — the Mayor of London's scheme which aims to encourage businesses to cut their carbon emissions. Addison Lee is a leader in this field, and the only double winners of the Green500′s Diamond award.
Entrepreneur of the Year
As an active investor with a keen eye for a good deal, John currently has a number of diverse business interests, and was recently named 'Entrepreneur of the Year' by Ernst and Young.
Charity and Outside Interests
Alongside heading Addison Lee and his position with the Learning and Skills Council, John supports a number of local schools, charities and youth centres. John is also a member of the Variety Club Golf Society and has sponsored the annual Addison Lee Footballers' Golf Classic at La Manga Golf Club since 1996, raising thousands for good causes. In 2010 he also became a Member of the Enterprise Fellowship of The Prince's Trust.

--Change to oil windfall tax to give central bank more hard currency to distribute
--New tax structure reduces allocations to Chavez's Fonden discretionary fund
--Oil minister says no bond offers planned; announcement comes as analysts expect a currency devaluation
By Kejal Vyas
CARACAS, Venezuela--President Hugo Chavez has approved a change to an oil tax that will allow state energy monopoly Petroleos de Venezuela to divert more dollars to the central bank to distribute into the private sector, Oil Minister Rafael Ramirez announced Monday.
The new scheme reduces the amount of money allocated by the government to a controversial discretionary development fund called Fonden and will increase the central bank's dollar sales by $2.47 billion while freeing up another $1.42 billion for PdVSA, as the state company is called, Mr. Ramirez said, as he showed Mr. Chavez's signature on the legislation.
The president hasn't been seen or heard from for more than a month as he continues a lengthy recovery from cancer surgery, but government officials insist that the populist remains in charge and say his signature on recent policy measures is an indication of his ability to fulfill his presidential duties.
The announcement comes as pressure builds for the government to tweak its tightly controlled currency regulations that give the state a monopoly on dollar distribution. Many speculate that a devaluation of the local bolivar currency could be in the works, a move that would increase the government's local currency income when it converts the dollars it earns from oil sales and would free up greenbacks to make available into the local economy.
A shortage of hard currency in Venezuela has contributed to runaway depreciation of the bolivar against the dollar on the black market, and private-sector businesses say they don't have enough dollars to buy goods from abroad, leading to shortages of food and other consumer products in this import-dependent South American country.
The changes announced by Mr. Ramirez on Monday apply to a new tax structure adopted by the government in April 2011 to take advantage of high international oil prices. At the time, the tax allowed the government to take 80% of earnings made with oil above $70 per barrel, 90% when the commodity was between $90 and $100 per barrel, and 95% when above $100.
The taxed funds would be transferred to Fonden, the subject of much criticism as it remains off-budget. Many charge that it is used as a private bank by Mr. Chavez to finance pet projects domestically and abroad.
But the new tax structure raises each of the price levels by $10 per barrel, and now, 80% of earnings above $80 per barrel will be sent to Fonden, 90% when oil is above $100 per barrel and 95% when the price is over $110. Oil partners would pay 20% of their earnings if oil is below $80 per barrel.
The change cuts PdVSA's allocations to Fonden by $2.7 billion. PdVSA diverted more than $15 billion to Fonden in 2012 and has transferred nearly $60 billion since the development fund was launched in 2005.
The average price of Venezuela's basket of heavy oil and petroleum products posted a record high of $103.42 in 2012, topping the previous record of $101.06 hit in 2011 and above the $100-a-barrel level that the ministry says is a fair price.
The new bill still needs to be approved by the National Assembly, which is closely allied with Chavez.
Speaking to reporters at the PdVSA headquarters, Mr. Ramirez said that there were no plans for the government to issue new dollar debt, which authorities in the past have used as a way to distribute dollars locally.
"It doesn't make sense economically," Mr. Ramirez said, adding that the country doesn't need to pay double-digit interest rates on its risky dollar bonds when they are able to get loans from China for around 6% interest.

Data Updates
Keeping you up to date on the latest data releases.
October 2014
- 06.01.2011
- Construction Spending
In April, private construction ticked up slightly for a gain of 1.7 percent over the month. While spending is down about 10 percent over the year, the April increase is the largest we've seen in five months. Both residential and nonresidential construction spending posted gains over the month, but residential came in much stronger (up 3 percent over the month) than nonresidential (up 0.5 percent over the month). All of the gains in residential spending came through home improvement spending, which was up 7.6 percent over the month from a downwardly revised March number. Interestingly, spending on home improvements is down as much as spending on new housing over the year, about 12 percent. On the nonresidential side, six industries were down over the month while five were up, bringing the topside number to $250.8 billion (seasonally adjusted annual rate). Nonresidential spending is currently around levels last seen in 2005. Notably, manufacturing experienced a small decrease over the month, after increasing in February and March.

(a) For circumstances where noncompliance cannot result in loss of life or loss of mission, statistically-based sampling plans or 100 percent inspection shall be employed based on determination of risk (Requirement 42130).
(b) For circumstances where noncompliance can result in loss of life or loss of mission, Government Mandatory Inspection Points (GMIP) shall be performed to ensure 100 percent compliance with safety/mission critical attributes (Requirement 42131). Safety/mission critical attributes include hardware characteristics, manufacturing process requirements, operating conditions, and functional performance criteria that, if not met, can result in loss of life or loss of mission.
(3) Be reevaluated and adjusted based on changes to risk factors (Requirement 42132).
(4) Include prework assurance measures that provide increased confidence for meeting prescribed requirements (e.g., preaward surveys, qualified source selection, training), concurrent assurance measures to ensure that work is being performed in accordance with requirements (e.g., process control, process witnessing), and postwork assurance measures to ensure that work was properly performed (e.g., inspections, tests, record review, configuration control) (Requirement 42133).
(5) Flow applicable quality assurance requirements down to successive levels of the supply chain to ensure control of subtier suppliers and verification of safety/mission critical attributes at all levels of the supply chain (Requirement 42134).
(6) Continually be improved through: advocacy; awareness training; teaming and sharing of quality assurance tools, techniques and data; integration of quality assurance processes to prevent duplication of effort; and dissemination/implementation of lessons learned and best practices (Requirement 42135).
(7) Ensure that customers and Government authorities are quickly notified concerning noncompliant products or failure experiences potentially affecting product safety, reliability, or functionality (Requirement 42136). Customers and Government authorities include: contracting officers, Government contract management agents, authorities responsible for assigning, managing, or overseeing work, and, where noncompliant conditions might constitute evidence of possible fraud, malpractice, or other serious misconduct, the NASA Office of Inspector General.
(8) Provide for investigative and corrective actions upon discovery or notification of noncompliance (Requirement 42137).
(a) Investigative actions shall identify the proximate and root cause(s) of noncompliance and the scope/population of noncompliant items (Requirement 42138).
(b) Corrective actions shall include the correction, replacement, repair, or authorized disposition of noncompliant items/conditions, implementation of preventive measures to eliminate the causes of noncompliance, and validation that implemented preventive measures have effectively eliminated recurrence of the noncompliant condition (recurrence control) (Requirement 42139).
(9) Ensure clear and mutual understanding of prescribed quality requirements among organizations responsible for contracting or assigning work, performing work, and assuring conformity of work (Requirement 42140).
(10) Be performed by persons that are competent on the basis of:
(a) Demonstrated knowledge, skills, and experience related to quality assurance principles and practices, and related to the specific product, process, or attribute for which assurance is being provided (Requirement 42142).
(b) Meeting formal certification or qualification requirements where prescribed in required/invoked documents or where deemed necessary to ensure personnel competency to perform specialized quality assurance functions (Requirement 42143).
(11) Be performed by persons that are not assigned direct responsibility for ensuring that cost or schedule objectives are met (Requirement 42144).
(12) Be supported by records demonstrating compliance with technical/quality requirements. Records shall be legible, traceable to the applicable product, identifiable to the applicable requirement, and readily retrievable for requirement verification (Requirement 42145).
(13) Include the collection and analysis of quality data for the purpose of identifying and initiating resolution of problem areas (e.g., projects, products, processes, operations, organizations), common deficiency causes, nonconformance trends, defect anomalies, and process variations (Requirement 42146).
(14) Be performed in accordance with a documented quality system that follows the criteria specified in Attachment A (Requirement 42147).

The authors found higher levels of CSF opioid activity, determined by
radioreceptor assay, in patients with anorexia nervosa who were severely
underweight than in 1) the same patients after weight restoration and 2)
normal controls. Another group of patients who had chronic anorexia nervosa
but were not severely underweight had normal levels of CSF opioid activity.
Endogenous opioid systems have been shown to be related to eating behavior
and metabolic regulation in animals. The association between decreased
weight and increased CSF opioid activity observed by the authors may be a
compensatory response to weight loss or may be etiologically related to
anorexia nervosa.

Bus featuring artwork unveiled at Louisville Zoo
Thirteen local children have been named winners of TARC's annual Design A Bus competition and will get to see their artwork adorn a bus that will be unveiled at the Louisville Zoo tomorrow morning.
Participants were asked to produce artwork following the theme "Helping Others – Building A Compassionate City." The 13 winners, ranging from grades 1-8, were selected out of 250 entries from almost 20 local schools as best illustrating that theme.
"It was thrilling to see all these talented students enter this contest with such creativity and thoughtfulness," said Executive Director J. Barry Barker. "The 13 winners can see their artwork on the bus, and there are many others who submitted outstanding work."
Approximately 75 TARC employees helped judge entries. The winners will attend a party and awards ceremony at the zoo beginning at 9 a.m. Saturday that starts with the bus unveiling.
Visit www.ridetarc.org to see the winning entries, or TARC's Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ridetarc.

Undergraduate Majors
Studio Art: Illustration
Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree
Through the University of Central Missouri's Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in Studio Art, with an emphasis in Illustration, students develop their creative talents and technical skills to become illustrators.
Students master creative problem solving, conceptual and aesthetic judgment, and the use of traditional and digital techniques through instruction from highly experienced faculty and from hands-on experience in studios and laboratories.
Traditional and Electronic Media
The Illustration Emphasis Area stresses mastery of traditional media in drawing and painting, but students are also encouraged to use 3D media when the idea warrants this approach. Students also learn to use the computer as an art tool.
In early program area classes Studio Art, Illustration majors follow the same path as Graphic Design majors, allowing them to learn basic graphic design skills that make intensive use of the computer. In this way students come to better understand how the illustrator's job relates to that of the graphic designer and the teamwork that is an important part of work in both fields.
Career Opportunities
There are career opportunities available globally and for a wide range of salaries. Work assignments include illustration executed for printed and web advertising, entertainment, and technical fields. The Illustration program serves the needs of a changing industry and graduates hold fulfilling employment across the nation and in many foreign countries. The combination of talent, motivation, program content, and excellent instruction continues to serve our Illustration students' career objectives well.
State-of-the Art Facilities
For their work using electronic technology, students utilize labs containing up-to-date Macintosh computers, software, scanners, Wacom tablets, printers and other peripherals that are standard in their career field.
UCM's Department of Art & Design is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD). UCM is the only state-supported four-year school in Missouri with such accreditation. UCM has held NASAD accreditation since 1986. Of the approximately 2,000 college art programs nationwide, NASAD has approved less than 15 percent, based on proven rigor and content.
Career Services
UCM's Office of Career Services assists students seeking internships, summer and campus jobs, part-time, and full-time employment. They also provide assistance with writing cover letters and resumes and offer a career library, mock interviews, and career counseling. The office also serves representatives of business, government, industry, and education who are looking for prospective employees. Over 700 employers visit UCM each year to conduct interviews on campus. Career Services may be reached at 660-543-4985 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Visit their website at ucmo.edu/career/students/.
Scholarships & Financial Aid
UCM's Student Financial Services Office offers nearly $7 million in merit-based scholarships each year to students who demonstrate academic excellence, leadership, special talents, or potential in a specific field of study. The primary mission of the office is to help students and their families identify and apply for appropriate financial resources to help pay the educational and living expenses they'll incur to attend UCM. Student Financial Services may be reached at 660-543-8266 or visit their website at ucmo.edu/sfs.
