The Biology Department honors a limited number (up to 10%) of graduating majors with Distinction in Biology. Each spring the faculty review the research papers and presentations of the student candidates, and award this academic honor to those who fulfill departmental ideals of academic excellence and research scholarship. Information about Distinction at St. Olaf College can be found in the academic catalog page linked here.
Distinction is open to seniors who have achieved a GPA in their biology major of 3.50 or greater. The biology major is defined as all courses that are counting as major requirements (including the year of general chemistry). Candidates for Distinction must have completed a significant research project, and must turn in a major research paper and present publicly on this research (usually at a department poster session). The biology faculty will evaluate each candidate on the quality of the paper and of the public presentation, and make a decision about whether or not to award the honor of Distinction.
Please note that the research paper is a major piece of work that is written for an audience of general biology faculty. It is not a publication-ready manuscript. It includes significant background information and literature research, in-depth analysis, critical reflection, and clearly emphasizes the significance of the research questions and results to the general field of biological knowledge. Any biology faculty member who reads the thesis should be able to determine why the question is interesting and important, whether or not the methods used to test the hypotheses were appropriate, whether the analysis and interpretation was reasonable, and to identify the broader significance of the research. In order to help candidates prepare such a high-quality paper, each student will be assigned a faculty person as a Pre-Reader, an assessment rubric to be used by the department will be provided ahead of time, and peer-editing opportunities will be arranged.
First-semester seniors who meet the GPA criterion above, and who have conducted (or are conducting in Fall 2013) a significant research project, are invited to apply for nomination as Distinction candidates. The timeline for the entire process is given below.

Task Force to President Bush: 'If it's good for the Baltics and Russia, what about here at home?'
Roberta Sklar, Director of Communications
National Gay and Lesbian Task Force to President Bush:
"If it's good for the Baltics and Russia, what about here at home?"
- Matt Foreman, Executive Director National Gay and Lesbian Task Force
Speaking in Latvia on the 60th anniversary of the end of WWII, George Bush lectured Russia and Vladimir Putin, saying, "The promise of democracy is fulfilled by minority rights, and equal justice under the rule of law, and an inclusive society in which every person belongs."
Mr. President, you support amending the U.S. and state constitutions to deprive a minority - gay people - of a right the majority takes for granted and sees as fundamental, namely marriage. You oppose giving gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans equal protections under the law from discrimination in employment, housing, and public accommodations. Your administration has relentlessly sought to exclude even the words 'gay,' 'lesbian,' 'bisexual,' and 'transgender' from any federal funding initiative.
So, the question is, 'If minority rights, equal justice under the law, and inclusive society are good for the Baltics and Russia - why not here at home?'"
The mission of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force is to build the political power of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community from the ground up. We do this by training activists, organizing broad-based campaigns to defeat anti-LGBT referenda and advance pro-LGBT legislation, and by building the organizational capacity of our movement. Our Policy Institute, the movement's premier think tank, provides research and policy analysis to support the struggle for complete equality and to counter right-wing lies. As part of a broader social justice movement, we work to create a nation that respects the diversity of human expression and identity and creates opportunity for all. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., we also have offices in New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis and Cambridge.

Ravalli County Commissioners move forward with a lawsuit against embattled treasurer Valerie Stamey.
In a procedural vote held Monday, commissioners asked the county attorney to initiate a civil suit asking for $29,000 from Stamey.
Montana Code Annotated 7-6-2113 reads, "Effect of failure to make treasurer's report. If a county treasurer neglects or refuses to settle or report as required in 7-6-612, the county treasurer forfeits and shall pay to the county the sum of $500 for each neglect or refusal. The board of county commissioners shall institute suits for the recovery of the sum."
Commissioners say they have 58 documented cases of Stamey refusing to file reports, which leads to the $29,000 fine. The county attorney will now draft the paperwork needed to file suit against Stamey.
Stamey has said county commissioners are corrupt and framed her.
Meantime, separate investigations into Stamey and allegations she made against county commissioners continue.

Dallas, TX -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/08/2014 -- After a 5.5% drop in sales in 2012 (reflective of the tough macroeconomic environment during the year; the July 2012 flooding and ongoing violence in the country), BMI continues to forecast that the new vehicles market will post a strong rebound in 2013 and in 2014, when we forecast a 7.8% rise in sales, to 59,598 units.
The Nigerian economy is set to be one of the continent's strongest performers in 2014. We expect headline real GDP growth to register 7.2%, up from an estimated 6.5% in 2013. Furthermore, coming in at 8.2% year-on-year (y-o-y) in August 2013, inflation is at five-year lows and this will provide a boost to the purchasing power of Nigerian consumers.
Complete report available @ http://www.marketreportsonline.com/304204.html.
Meanwhile, there are signs that the Nigerian government is finally beginning to shoulder a serious role in encouraging – and protecting - domestic production. Nigeria's Federal Executive Council has approved a new Automotive Industrial Policy Development plan, aimed at addressing the shortcomings of previous policies and attracting investment in domestic production, in order to reduce the country's soaring vehicle import bill. Given the growth in vehicle imports in recent years, BMI believes the level of demand will gain the attention of major manufacturers, assuming the policy can be successfully implemented.

WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAU) - Officials at the Boys and Girls Club say a group is using their name and logo to pass itself off in a scam.
An authentic looking job listing was posted on Craigslist in Wausau, advertising an open position at the Boys and Girls Club. When applicants responded, they got a replay sending them a form to get their credit info and credit score. Director Kim Larsen says the letter is not coming from them. "We got a contact from the national Boys and Girls organization saying this is an problem across the country." Other similar ads have popped up from Fargo to Eau Claire to Iowa.
Larsen says the club will never ask for that kind of information in an interview process. "If you did hand out that info, you should contact the police." Larsen says a number of other groups were also targets by the scam.

By Bryan Alvarez |
| @bryanalvarez
We're looking for reports on tonight's Smackdown/Main Event tapings in Omaha. Main Event features Wade Barrett vs. Sin Cara for the IC title, while Smackdown features Dean Ambrose vs. Kofi Kingston for the U.S. title. We're still looking for reports on Saturday night's WWE show in Evansville.
There are three issues of the Observer that are on the site this week. The back issue, from 1996, goes back to a period that changed the wrestling business, when Kevin Nash signed with WCW. It's what went down at the time, and what was going on behind the scenes months before the NWO was formed. We look at the state of both WCW and WWF, as well as all of the news from that period.
-- Also, if you haven't checked it out, last night's Observer Radio is a FREE download, so please spread the word about the site and all the great audio content. We really appreciate it.
-- Story here about WWE's latest head of creative, Adam Richman, being fired after just six weeks. We have confirmed that this is true.
-- John Cena is expected back on Raw next week. He was off TV last night selling injuries, but he worked before the live crowd in the dark match main event.
-- Latest in the Triple H storyline is that he told the WWE app last night that he only remembered coming to the ring, and couldn't even remember who he had the match with. Go Curt Axel!
-- And Jerry Lawler on Twitter today: "I want to apologize to Triple H and his family for insinuating that he may have had a stroke. I know firsthand how upsetting it could be."
-- As noted on the front page, Renan Barao is now officially off UFC 161 with a foot injury.
-- The Countdown to UFC 160 show airs tonight on FUEL TV at 9 PM Eastern/6 Pacific. Main card line-up for this Sunday's PPV has Cain Velasquez vs. Antonio Silva for the heavyweight title, Junior Dos Santos vs. jetlagged Mark Hunt, James Te Huna vs. Glover Teixeira, TJ Grant vs. Gray Maynard with the winner getting a future title shot against Benson Henderson, and Donald Cerrone vs. KJ Noons.
-- Jon Jones' manager says even though Jones is still recovering from his toe injury that legitimately could have cost him the light heavyweight title vs. Chael Sonnen, he still wants to fight at least two more times in 2013.
-- Bryan Caraway responded to claims that he elbowed Cat Zingano purposely in the back of the head prior to her fight with Miesha Tate by essentially saying that if someone had elbowed his woman, he'd have said something about it immediately, not a month later. This is not the best excuse I've ever heard anyone make, particularly since the story had been talked about for a month, just underground, and there are numerous witnesses who claim to have been there when it happened.
-- Mike Kogan, the manager of Nate Diaz, also stated yesterday that Nate Diaz is not at all apologetic about his $20,000 fine and 3-month suspension based on using a gay slur to describe Caraway on Twitter. Kogan is making a name for himself of late, and not in a good way.
-- Nate recently tweeted #urstillasorryassbitch
-- Story on Donald Cerrone in USA Today here where he says, among things, that he never thinks about being sore or hurt the next day because all that means is another shot of whiskey.
-- It was announced here that this year's AAA TripleMania will be available on PPV, iPPV and in movie theatres.
-- James Storm update from his Twitter: "Just so everyone knows. Doc said I have a slight tear in my right abdominal & a adductor strain "groin pull" 6-8 weeks. Busting ass 2 b back".
-- From TNA and the Georgia Lottery: The Georgia Lottery Corporation has partnered with IMPACT WRESTLING to launch its new instant game IMPACT WRESTLING. "We are pleased to partner with IMPACT WRESTLING to offer a fresh, new game to our players and wrestling enthusiasts," said Georgia Lottery Corporation President and CEO Debbie D. Alford. "Every dollar raised by this game will benefit HOPE and Pre-K students." The IMPACT WRESTLING instant game went on sale statewide Tuesday.
-- Impact last week officially did an 0.8 and 1.1 million viewers, lowest number in forever. Both hours pretty much sucked.
Bad because the stipulation involved demands a winner 43.7%
Not a good finish, but it wasn't the time to beat Ryback or take the title from Cena and they should build a rematch 21.8%

Academics raise concerns at calculator ban for SATs (From thisisoxfordshire)

Academics raise concerns at calculator ban for SATs
7:00am Friday 16th May 2014 in News By Sophie Scott, Education Reporter, also covering West Oxford. Call me on (01865) 425437
TEACHERS and academics have raised concerns about the impact of banning calculators in primary school tests.
Children in Year 6 have this week been sitting their National Curriculum SATs tests and for the first time under Government changes they cannot use calculators in the maths exams.
Ministers believe pupils are becoming too reliant on calculators, saying pupils should know their times tables and be able to add, subtract and divide before learning to use calculators.
But others have warned that the ruling could have a big impact on results.
Teacher April Warren, whose Year 6 pupils at Larkrise Primary School in East Oxford, were due to take the maths test yesterday, said it was difficult to know the impact the ban would have.
She said earlier: "What will have an impact is whether the test paper reflects not being able to use a calculator.
"We won't know for definite how that has gone until we open the papers. If the tests are still set at the level that they were last year then it could have a big impact on results."
Experts at Oxford University have argued children would lose vital skills and it will be detrimental to their learning.
Professor of Educational Studies Terezinha Nunes said calculators helped children develop mathematical reasoning.
She said: "There is a balance between assessing computation skills and reasoning.
"But if you take away the possibility of calculators, either you are going to not focus at all on reasoning and just thinking about how to do the sums correctly, or demand less on reasoning skills and so spend time calculating."
Oxfordshire County councillor and education expert John Howson agreed that it could have an effect on results.
He said: "We won't know what effect it will have until we get the results. I can see both sides."
But he added: "Asking children to not use them does seem a bit like a step back."
"It's like going back to logorithms instead of using a computer. If the technology is there it should be a skill they should learn."
Anne Watson, Emeritus Professor of Mathematics Education at Oxford University, said: "There is a substantial amount of good evidence on calculators in schools, mainly from the US, and none of it shows their use is detrimental to pupils' learning.
"In fact, students who use calculators regularly in lessons score as high or higher in tests, taken without calculators, compared to those who do not."

SPOKANE COUNTY, Wash.--A rash of phone scams were surfacing across the Inland Northwest in February. Suspects identify themselves as lieutenants with the Spokane County Sheriff's Office, according to police.
Police said the suspects then demand money from people for missing jury duty.
One suspect even tried to convince a legitimate employee of the Sheriff's Office that they were in fact colleagues.
"We received a call out of the blue last week from an individual who was stating he was Lt. Carl Jones from SCSO. He was claiming my wife failed to respond to a jury summons," said one person.
Victims said the caller identifies himself as either Lieutenant Bill Campbell or Lieutenant Carl Jones. They said sometimes the suspect will even identify himself as Captain Davis.
The scammers try to get people to cough up about $700 for missing jury duty.
Official employees of the Sheriff's Office reached out to the suspect to get his side.
"Not only was he adamant that he was a Lt here, but he handed his phone to his Sgt who was with him and had his Sgt. complete with the legitimate employee of the sheriff's office here," said Craig Chamberlain with the Spokane Sheriff's Office.
An official Sheriff's Office employee then tried to set up a meeting with his alleged colleague.
"Not surprising, they didn't show up but they did not say...oooh and hang up or try to dispute anything, which is scary. They went along with the conversation which is scary," said Chamberlain.
The numbers the suspect was using have been disconnected. The phone numbers were registered out of Ephrata, but detectives believe the scammers use untraceable pay as you go phones, according to police.

Lyn goes to find Frank and Amber tells a lie
Amber dropped the towel to the floor and tip-toed across the room to where her fiancé slept soundly and completely unaware of her presence. She gently pulled back the covers and slid in beside him tensing her body and praying that he wouldn't wake. She settled in next to him and sighed with relief as he lay flat out on his back snoring lightly. Amber closed her eyes and let thoughts of Bob and the time they shared in Christa's house flood her mind. A small smile played on her lips as she remembered their kisses and love making and how wonderful it all felt. Her smile didn't last long as she thought about the position she had now put herself in and the things she had admitted to Bob and herself whilst they were together. She was torn as to what to do but as she drifted off she decided that she'd deal with all of it once she was awake for now she'd sleep and just be glad that she had gotten away with it.
'Will you please tell me what we're doing here?' Marcus asked impatiently as he shut off the engine. They had been driving around for much too long looking for Frank's new home and while they had finally found it Lyn had refused to tell him anything so far.
'Ok listen you can't tell anyone….' Lyn started looking around nervously as though someone my overhear her.
Marcus rolled his eyes 'who am I going to tell?' he asked 'seriously?'
'Whatever' Lyn said 'Ok so look, Frank's in love with Cheyenne.'
'Really?' Marcus said his eyes lighting up at the gossip 'ooooh no way.'
'He and Cheyenne have been seeing each other behind Gerard's back' Lyn told him swallowing back the bitter taste the words left in her mouth.
'Get-out' Marcus gasped 'Shut up! Are you serious? They've been having an affair. Oh that bitch! After everything she said to you.'
'This is different I guess' Lyn said with a shrug 'the thing is they're in love and Frank was convinced they were going to start a life together but it turns out Cheyenne's pick Gerard after all and that's why Frank suddenly disappeared. His heart is breaking'
'Ah man, poor guy' Marcus said taking his wife's hand in his thankful that they didn't have a problem like that 'so we're here to check on him?'
'Yeah' Lyn said looking at the dark house and feeling unnerved that none of the light were on 'just want to make sure he's….'
'Not dead?' Marcus cut in.
'No' Lyn gasped hitting him 'I wanna make sure he's ok'
'Not dead. Ok, same thing right?' he said with a casual shrug.
'Just wait here I'll be back in a few' Lyn said kissing his cheek before jumping out of the rented car.
Lyn raced around the side of Frank's house to find the back door unlocked she wasn't sure if that was good sign or not and she wouldn't know until she found Frank and saw him with her own eyes. She didn't bother quieting her footsteps, one because she didn't want to scare him and have him attack her thinking she was a burglar and two because as she climbed the stairs she wasn't even sure he was home.
'Frank!' She called out finding the hallway light and flicking it on. She opened the first door to her left and found a room filled with boxes. She closed it and headed further down the hallway.
'Frank, are you home?' She asked opening another door and filling the room with light that fell upon a sleeping body on a queen sized bed.
Lyn smiled and sighed with relief as she crossed the room and snapped on the lamp side light. She studied him careful and frowned at the empty bottle of Wild Turkey beside him on the bed. Did he drink all of that? In a panic Lyn started shaking him awake, the drink was strong and she hated to think he drank the whole lot in one go.
'Frank, wake up' she said unable to hide the alarm in her voice.
'Whaa?' he slurred not opening his eyes 'go 'way'
'Are you alright?' Lyn asked sitting beside him.
'I fine' Frank said 'so fine'
'I just came to see if you we're ok' Lyn told him taking the empty bottle and placing it on the nightstand.
'I'm okay' he said then giggled 'I'm na okayaayaay. That's my song is about me'
Lyn smiled despite herself 'yeah it's about you' she agreed stroking his hair back from his face.
'She's gellin married' Frank sighed his eyes finally opening 'she's gonna marry him.'
Lyn didn't know what to say. What could she say? That is wasn't true, he knew it was.
'Was 'upposed to be me' he sniffed as fresh tears fell from his sore red eyes 'she's 'posed to be my wife'
'I'm sorry Frankie' she said willing away her own tears. She lay down beside him and whispered to him hoping to lull him back to sleep so he wouldn't have to hurt anymore for the night 'I'm sorry it didn't work out the way you wanted but it will be alright' she soothed 'tomorrow will be different.'
'There is no tomorrow whiffout her' he cried 'she was my tomorrow.'
They lapsed into a silence, Lyn holding him close to her and stroking his hair trying to think of anything she could say to make him feel better but nothing came to mind.
'Why doesn't 'nyone want me?' Frank whispered 'what's wrong with me?'
'Nothing' Lyn insisted propping herself up on her elbow 'there's nothing wrong with you Frank Iero, you hear me? You're one of the nicest guys I've ever known.'
'Then why am I alone?' he asked 'why's everyone got someone bah me?'
'I don't know' Lyn said sadly 'maybe you just haven't met the right girl'
'But I have' he implored 'bah she met him first and now I'm all alone. I wish…I wish…'
'What Frankie?' Lyn asked 'what do you wish?'
'I wish Jamia was here' he sighed 'she'd know what to do but I made her leave.'
'You let her go' Lyn said softly
'Because she deserves better' Frank said 'everyone I know deserve better than me, I'm not good 'nough for no one'
'Stop it' Lyn insisted 'stop talking like that. There aint nothing wrong with you and the truth of the matter is you're too good for most people Frankie, guys like you are few and far between.'
'Nice guys finish last' he said rolling over to face her. The action seemed to use more effort then Frank thought it would.
'That's not entirely true' Lyn smiled 'nice guys get what they deserve'
'Jus not me' he sighed
'You will too' Lyn reassured him laying on her back and closing her eyes 'you'll see'
Frank quietly watched Lyn's profile as the alcohol weaved its way through his blood he licked his lips as his eyes fell on the small natural pout of her lips and the swell of her breasts as they rose and fell with each breath. Lyn was nice, she was pretty and soft and warm and she was here with him. As long as she was here he wasn't alone, she made him feel a little bit better but he wanted to feel good. She could make him feel good.
'Maybe I should just take what I want' he said gathering the courage and the energy to turn his words into actions.
'Hmm' Lyn said not opening her eyes 'what did you say?'
Frank didn't answer her with words but rolled on top of her instead as quickly as his inebriated body would allow.
'Frank what the he-'Lyn's words were cut off as Frank's mouth covered hers in an urgent kiss. Lyn's eyes grew wide as Frank forced his lips to hers. She clamped her mouth shut denying his tongue the access it desperately wanted as her hands pushed at his chest.
'Whas the matter?' Frank asked grabbing at her hands and pinning them above her head 'never thought you the type to deny a man.'
Lyn seethed as the heavy weight of his body held her down. She knew he wasn't himself and that he had every emotion plus alcohol running through his body but if he didn't stop she'd scream for Marcus and she didn't want Frank to get his ass kicked. 'Get off me' she fumed.
'Make me' Frank grinned wrestling her wrists into one of his hands and trailing his free hand down her body and grabbing a handful of her breast.
'Don't act like you don't like it' Frank panted as he groped her, his erection pressing into her thigh as he ground his hips roughly against her.
'Frank stop' Lyn breathed 'I want to do this but just calm down' she said willing her body to relax under his. 'Just take it easy' she pleaded. Frank released her arms but his body continued to pin her down as he trailed wet kisses across her neck. Lyn snaked a hand between them reaching for the bulge that pressed against her and she gripped it firmly squeezing him in her palm.
Frank moaned at her touch and instantly stopped his assault on her body 'well that's more like it' he praised giggling drunkenly 'I want more of that'
'Sit back' Lyn nodded with a grin 'and gimme some space to make you feel good.'
Frank eagerly did as she asked and sat back on his knees looking down at the woman who was willing to lay down with him and his mind flew to Cheyenne. It should be her underneath him but it wasn't and her rejection hit him hard once again but not a hard as the punch that landed square across his jaw and sent him flying off of Lyn and tumbling over the side of the bed.
'Asshole' Lyn huffed sitting up on her knees and shaking out the pain in her fist. She hated to fool him like that but she couldn't let him continue either. 'What were you thinking Frank?'
She waited a beat for a groan or a reply but heard none 'Frank?' she called out again crawling to the side of the bed.
'I'm sorry' Frank whispered his face full of the remorse of his actions. He stared up at the ceiling, not wanting to close his eyes but too embarrassed to look into the eyes of the woman he just threw himself at.
'It's ok' Lyn said quietly sliding off the bed and landing beside him. 'You didn't mean it.'
'No I didn't' Frank agreed 'but it was still wrong. Everything is wrong.'
Lyn reached her hand out and wiped the single tickle off blood that fell from the side of his mouth. She felt bad that she had hurt him but thankful that the alcohol was numbing his pain, she just wished it could numb his emotional pain too.
'Come on lets get you back into bed' Lyn said
'Why?' he said 'what's the point?'
'The point is the floor is damn uncomfortable' Lyn said 'and if you want me to stay with you 'til the morning the bed is where we'll be sleeping.'
'You wanna stay with me?' Frank asked, feeling grateful but unable to show it. 'Why, no one else does?'
'I'll stay' Lyn said ignoring his question 'If you want me to'
'Do I have a say?' Marcus asked suddenly appearing at the doorway. He had wandered in wondering why she was taking so long.
'No' Lyn joked winking at him. She stood up and pulled Frank up with her and he swayed on his feet before falling onto his back onto the bed.
Lyn walked over to her husband and spoke in a low tone 'I don't want to leave him like this honey, if something happened…'
Marcus nodded understanding 'I get it' he said looking over at Frank 'he needs you.'
'You understand?' Lyn asked
'Of course, I'd be a little worried about him too' Marcus admitted as he wondered which room they'd be sleeping in. He had seen four other doors in the hallway and wondered what was behind each one.
'You can sleep in here with us if you want' Frank giggled 'the more the merrier.'
'You're sleeping with him? In here? Marcus frowned as images of their sex tape flashed through his mind.
'Well not like that' Lyn said screwing up her face like a bad smell had passed under her nose 'but I'm going to sleep with him. The bed is big enough for the three of us.'
'No thanks I'll take the couch.' Marcus said walking further into the room. He eyed Frank but his eyes were closed and if he hadn't just been talking Marcus would've been convinced he was asleep.
'I'll see you in the morning' Marcus said kissing Lyn's lips not bothering to hide his frown.
'Looking forward to it' Lyn said pecking him once more and mouthing the words "thank you" to him. He really was a wonderful husband.
'Hey clown' Marcus said nudging Frank's foot 'you gonna try and fuck my wife?'
'Nope' Frank hiccupped 'the only wife I wanna fuck is Gerard's' he stated and then he burst into a fit of giggles.
Marcus shook his head but laughed too and took the pillow that Lyn handed him, he snatched a blanket that was lying on the bed and left the room without another word.
'Get undressed you' Lyn said unbuttoning her jeans. She'd keep everything else on but jeans were a bitch to sleep in.
'I thought we weren't fucking' Frank said his hands lazily undoing his belt; he unbuttoned his jeans and slid them down his thighs.
Lyn sighed and tugged them the rest of the way off 'Ok lay properly' she said and she watched Frank drag himself up to his pillows and rest his drunken head. She slid in beside him and switched the lamp off plunging the room into darkness.
'I'm having a sense of déjà vu' Lyn joked 'Have I comforted you before?'
Frank chuckled. 'Thanks' he said finding her hand under the cover and squeezing it.
'Anytime Iero, I got a soft spot for you.' Lyn admitted
'A G-Spot did you say?' Frank laughed 'can I feel it?'
'Enough!' Lyn laughed slapping his shoulder playfully. 'Go to sleep.'
'It's all over isn't it?' Frank whispered the sadness taking him over again.
'Hush now' Lyn said cuddling close to him 'no more talking, just sleep'
Cheyenne woke to the sound of Gerard's laughter, she opened her eyes to find his side of the bed cold and empty and realised the sound of his voice had travelled up the stairs.
She donned her robe and left her room in search of him. She found him in the kitchen on the phone, his back to her.
'Good morning' she whispered in his free ear, dropping a kiss on his head. He looked up at her and smiled mouthing he'd only be a minute but Cheyenne waved him off, he could take all the time he wanted.
Cheyenne walked into the living room and settled on the sofa choosing to watch the news channel Gerard had left it on instead of changing it. She listened to Gerard talk in the other room, whoever he was conversing with he was telling them about their engagement. Cheyenne's left hand suddenly felt extremely heavy under the weight of her new ring and her commitment to Gerard.
'You've made the right choice' she whispered to herself 'this is the right thing to do'
Her eyes fell upon a picture of Gerard and Frank that lined the windowsill with so many others. It was one of her favourites of the two of them. They were at a party, people filling the background of the photo but those two stood close together, looking into each others eyes and laughing hard, an inside joke that only they shared and Alicia had captured it at just the right moment. It was a great picture and as Cheyenne looked at it she wondered what the picture would look like with a big tear down the middle of it, because that's how it would look if Gerard ever found out about her and Frank. Their friendship would be torn apart.
'Good morning fiancé' Gerard said strolling into the room his happy grin practically leading the way. He threw himself onto the sofa beside her and planted a kiss on her cheek 'beautiful morning isn't it?'
Cheyenne looked out of the window at the sunless sky and laughed 'maybe only to you' she giggled
'Not to you?' he asked his smile fading a little
'And to me' she said placing a kiss on his lips 'I was just watching the news, you know waiting for our engagement announcement to come up'
Gerard laughed 'I haven't told anyone yet' he said and Cheyenne raised an eyebrow a sceptical look on her face.
'Ok' Gerard backpedalled 'I may have told some people this morning but not anyone that would tell the press so it's still just between us.'
Cheyenne laughed delighted that he was so elated, his happiness was infectious and she found her spirits picked up too.
'So when do you want to get married?' Gerard asked half serious half joking.
'Whenever you want me' Cheyenne said ignoring the horrible churning in her stomach as Frank flashed through her mind.
'Tomorrow it is then' Gerard laughed 'Ok maybe not tomorrow' he said 'next year sometime'
'Something small and intimate' Cheyenne said 'nothing big and fancy'
'Just us' he promised kissing her head 'and the family'
'Sounds perfect' Cheyenne admitted snuggling close to him 'and everyone will have a role.'
'I wouldn't have it any other way' Gerard nodded in agreement and he thought about how easy their wedding would be to plan if they agreed on most things already. 'Now do you want some breakfast?'
'I do' Cheyenne said then giggled realising what she had said
'I do too' Gerard grinned 'come on wifey' he said rising and pulling her up 'lets eat.'
'Whoa what are you doing?' Cheyenne giggled as they neared the door and Gerard swept her up off her feet.
'I'm carrying you over the threshold' Gerard laughed 'it's what bridegrooms do'
'Yeah after the wedding' Cheyenne laughed clinging to his neck
'Well I gotta practice' Gerard told her carrying her into the kitchen 'I don't wanna knock your head on the door frame or anything.'
'That doesn't really happen' Cheyenne smiled shaking her head 'only in the movies'
'Oh yeah? Just ask Frank' Gerard laughed setting her down on the counter top and walking over to the coffee machine.
Cheyenne felt her body deflate at the mention of Frank's name and all the happiness she just felt quickly melted away and she quickly lost herself inside her head thinking about the man she had not chosen.
'Did you hear anything I just said?' Gerard asked from across the room as he prepared their breakfast.
'I'm sorry' Cheyenne said coming to and forcing the images of Frank and their short romance out of her mind 'I was miles away. What did you say?'
'I was talking about Mini and Paige' he said 'I was thinking about going over to Mom's in about an hour so I can have some time with Paige before she leaves. Is that ok?'
'Of course.' Cheyenne said instantly thinking of Frank. She needed to see him just to know he was okay, maybe to talk if he'd let her. She'd apologise and let him know how very sorry she was 'I need to go to the store so we'll leave together and I'll meet you there'
'Cool' Gerard said 'sounds like a plan.' And Cheyenne nodded in agreement, it wasn't just a plan it was a good plan and she crossed her fingers and her heart praying that Frank would talk to her.
'Morning sleepy head' Richard greeted Amber who walked into the kitchen with a frown. 'That is not a happy face' he noted holding out his arms to her.
'I'm still tired' Amber lied. In fact she wasn't tired at all she felt guilty and confused about last night. She had woke to a full head and a heavy heart as she replayed her night with Bob and thought about her future with Richard. She reluctantly walked into his arms ignoring the horrible feeling in her stomach as he held her close.
'How was last night?' he asked kissing her red hair. 'Was it good?'
It took Amber a split second to realise he was talking about dinner and not the sex she had with her ex at her friend's house.
'It was great. The food was to die for as usual, I envy Cheyenne's cooking skills' she admitted with a nervous laugh.
'Maybe you can get her to teach you a thing or two' Richard joked
'You'd love that wouldn't you?' Amber smiled
'Don't get me wrong it's not like I don't love your cheese on toast honey' he chuckled 'but a man cannot live on that alone.'
'Hint well and truly received' Amber laughed 'I'll see what I can do'
'So what time did the festivities end last night?' Richard asked. He had come home after looking for Amber at Gerard's and waited for her to arrive but she never did and he fell asleep sometime after 2am waiting for her.
'Oh really late' Amber gulped swallowing the truth and praying it didn't show all over her face. 'We all stayed 'til really late. What time did you get home?'
'About 11' he said telling truth. He had come home first and then went back out to find her. 'I fell asleep pretty much straight away.' Now that was a lie. 'So how late did you leave?' Richard asked casually ignoring the unease in his stomach at the conversation.
'I left after 1am' Amber said leaving his embrace and heading over to fridge to hide her flushed face 'Ray and Christa brought me home for around half past.'
'Hmm' Richard said shaking his head at her lies 'I'm sorry I missed it, sounded like you had a good time.'
'I had a wonderful time' Amber said smiling as she remember Bob's kisses and the words he whispered to her as they lay together cuddled up on the floor. 'I always have a good time with them, I'll miss them when we leave for London' she sighed.
'I'm sorry we have to go' Richard replied staring at her back as she rummaged through the fridge.
Amber shrugged and changed the subject 'can I interest you in some breakfast? Cheese on toast' she grinned looking at him but not into his eyes.
'Yes thank you' Richard replied. He watched his fiancé whirl around the kitchen making a mess as she prepared their simple breakfast. She was completely oblivious to the fact that he had caught her in a lie and the only thing left for him to do was find out was why she was lying.

Luis Suarez hints towards Liverpool exit – Barca and Munich on the prowl
3/21/13 in Soccer | JamesSmith23 | 1413 respect
Liverpool star Luis Suarez has finally hinted towards an away move. The Uruguayan striker has hinted towards a possible exit from Anfield this summer. Luis Suarez has announced he would be willing to listen to offers from other clubs.
The 26-year-old is currently preparing for the World Cup qualifiers with the Uruguay national team. They will be playing against Paraguay on Friday.
The former Ajax forward, who is currently the leading goalscorer in the Premier League with 22 goals under his belt, admits he will consider moving to a club with "more prospects" if an attractive offer arrives.
Luis Suarez has attracted a lot of attention from top notch European clubs in the last year. Europe's elite football powerhouses such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Manchester City and Chelsea showed a lot of interest in acquiring Luis Suarez during the winter transfer window, but the Uruguayan declared he was committed to Liverpool for the long haul.
However, with Barcelona and Bayern Munich continuing to pursuit Luis Suarez, the Nacional bred player has accepted he might move away in the future.
"I am very happy at Liverpool, but you never know in football," Luis Suarez was quoted in the Liverpool Echo. "A player's ambition is always there, the ambition of wanting to play in elite teams is always there.
"I'm in a world-class team, an elite team like Liverpool. We have to realise we have a new manager who is imposing a philosophy and a way of playing that the players are adapting to as best we can. We hope that it will bear fruit next year.
"If another team comes around with more prospects of competing in international club competition games, which is willing to have me, they are welcome. We would talk to the club, we would see if I want to go, if I don't want to go."
Luis Suarez also explained that his fiery character was what made him one of the best strikers in Europe. The Uruguayan claims its part of what he is, therefore it's not possible for him to change.
"If I didn't have the character that I have today on the pitch, I don't think that I would have become the player that I am today," Luis Suarez added.
"I have a very strange way of playing football. I'm my own severest critic and I realise when I make mistakes. There are times that I get yellow cards that can influence a game. I have improved and I have to continue improving.
"You can lose some things, but you can never lose the slyness, the passion that you have had since you were a kid playing in the street."

Experiencing a Seminole Reservation Near Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Sparks fly as legends of unconquered Seminole Indians swirl around the campfire, including tales of Sam Jones, the Native American leader, medicine man, and namesake for the camp at the Seminole Tribe's reservation near Fort Lauderdale. Spend the night sleeping inside an authentic thatched chickee hut, chew on gator nuggets, fry bread and other native specialties, and visit the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki (meaning "to learn") Museum. Excursions on the reservation's wetlands include Billie Swamp Safaris for sightings of bison, eagles and Florida panthers, or book a wild hog hunt for a different type of gaming than what you'll find at the Seminoles' Hard Rock Casino.

Leung Chun-ying (CY), the forth Chief Executive of Hong Kong was elected by 1200 election committees on March 25, 2012. He is alleged as underground communist party member and violated freedom of speech in the past. A famous Hong Kong blogger Kay Lam's Facebook account was suspended after posting a picture with caption "Finally the lights are all gone, The Death of Hong Kong 1841-2012", just three hours after CY was elected as Chief Executive.

Would the magnificent view of derrick cars lining up outside Henry Tang's (Hong Kong former Financial Secretary, current candidate of Chief Executive election 2012) mansion still appear after stalking is legislated? Whoever from the pro-government camp win the election would very likely push for this regulation that shelter the powerful and the rich.
Stalking law may threaten Hong Kong freedom of press and assembly.
[Editor: The Hong Kong government is consulting the public on stalking. Journalists and activists are worried that their right of reporting and demonstration will be threatened. Chong Yiu-kwong, a Hong Kong lawyer, wrote articles to express view on this issue.]
Chinese original text Apple daily (27.2.2012)
The government is consulting the public on stalking. There have been a number of abuses in Britain after stalking was legislated. In 2007, Npower, a British energy company accused demonstrators for harassing their staff and applied for a restraining order according to anti-stalking acts in order to get rid of demonstrators and stop journalists from reporting. An exemption was granted after 3 months of legal process. Articles in The Guardian pointed out that the British anti-stalking acts had been used to suppress demonstrations. In 2001, a group of demonstrators who protested at a US military intelligence agency were prosecuted under the anti-staling acts as American staff felt harassed by the slogan "George W Bush? Oh dear!" written on the signboard held up by demonstrators. In 2004, a woman sent an email to the administration staff of a medicine company twice, urging them to stop using animals for experiments. Despite her politeness she was arrested. Laws in Hong Kong are greatly influenced by cases in Britain, abuses as such would easily happen frequently if stalking is legislated.

After Commissioner of Police (CP) Mr Tsang took office, his tough measures against the demonstrators have raised social concerns about the anti-stalking legislation. Law Reform Commission (hereinafter referred to as "LRC") published "anti-stalking" consultation document on 19 December last year which is called "The press 23" by the society. According to the document, stalking "may be described as a series of acts directed at a specific person which, taken together over a period of time, causes him to feel harassed, alarmed or distressed". These acts might not be objectionable but, when combined over a period of time, interfered with the privacy and family life of the victim, and causing him distress, alarm or ever serious impairment of his physical or psychological well being. These acts may cause annoying or panic but still lawful at the beginning act, evolve into a dangerous, violent or likely to cause others to death. If a person ought to have known a course of conduct which amounted to harassment of the other, he should be guilty of a criminal offense. A maximum penalty would be a fine of $ 100,000 and imprisonment for two years, and with civil liability. The victim would be able to claim damages for any distress, anxiety and financial loss resulting from the pursuit and apply for an injunction to prohibit the stalker from doing anything which causes him alarm or distress.
Hong Kong In-Media has published the e-version of its research work on Social Media and Mobilization at Amazon under the title: Social Media Uprising in the Chinese-speaking World.
This book is an elaborated study of the use of social media in grassroots struggles in China, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Malaysia by local researchers and activists. We would like to work out a self-finance model for research and publication of social movement and media activism experience in Asia, in particular among Chinese speaking communities. Please support us by buying a copy.
You may also download a sample preview copy here [pdf].
Below is an introduction written by Jack Qui, a scholar on New media and politics from the Chinese University of Hong Kong:
Editor note: This article is originally written by Leung Mantao, a cultural critic based in Hong Kong, in Chinese. It is a response toward the Chinese state media' propaganda campaign against the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize being awarded to Liu Xiaobo, a political dissident who is still in the Chinese prison.
What they said is right, the Nobel Peace Prize is really no big deal! Why letting a bunch of Nordic Europeans to decide who the world's academic heroes are? Or who makes the greatest contributions to peace? This doesn't really make a lot of sense! They are right, any award has in itself some sorts of bias. That is why Jean-Pail Sartre refused to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1964. His reason was, "A writer must refuse to allow himself to be transformed into an western institution, even if the prize itself does not mean to be one." (Sartre also declared reluctance to accept the "Lenin Prize"). Therefore, I do not wish to argue here whether Mr. Liu Xiaobo deserves the Nobel Peace Prize, or what is the meaning of him taking or not taking the award. I do not even concern whether the decision to award him is in the end a "blasphemy" called by the spokesman for China's foreign ministry.
(Editor note: This article is a part of an investigative report originally published in Changcheng Monthly (長城月報)in Chinese. The report, written by ChangLei (張蕾)traces the history of government and party hired online commentators, the so-called 50 Cent Party.)
Since October 2004, Communication Office of Changsha Municipal Party Committee has been insistent in delivering a daily opinion digest, Changsha Yuqing Kuaibao (《長沙輿情快報》) to major officials of Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government. For this, the office have recruited members from units such as the Municipal Party Committee Office and Training School of Changsha Municipal Committee of CPC to form a team of net commentators. These astroturfing commentators are hired with a basic monthly salary of RMB 600, with commissions depending on number of posts they posted. Each of their posts would be logged on a "net commentators management system" and counts for 50 cents.
(Editor note: This article is originally written in Chinese by An Tao at inmediahk.net on October 10, 2010, commenting on the 2010 Nobel Peace Award to Chinese dissident writer Liu Xiaobo. The writer explores the usage of the term "peace" in contemporary China and the implication and practice of Liu Xiaobo's peaceful act in such context.)
Over the years, I have been puzzled by the swift change of discourse from the "powerful rise" of China to its "peaceful rise". Peace is neither derived from Marxist-Leninst principles, nor observed by the Chinese Communist regime as a virtue. How the slogan of "peaceful rise" can be realized remains in doubt.
The meaning of "peaceful rise" per se is confusing enough. Does it mean that a rising power is still peace-loving and unthreatening to other countries, or peace is a feasible or even necessary strategy during the rise of a nation?
Editor note: This article about the use of microblogs by Chinese police is originally published in Xinhuanet
Recent years, the People of the Republic of China police has created MicroBlog and has caused great concern in the Internet.
Is it a "show" or "internet politics"? How do law enforcers adapt the liberal and free internet atmosphere? How does MicroBlog reflect the governance mentality? Reporters visited the police MicroBlog to take a look.
On 25th of July, a "Support Cantonese Crowd Action" has taken place in in Guangzhou Jiangnanxi subway. Although it was officially classified as "unlawful assembly" and "Ying Ye", the 18-year-old founder, was brought to "drink tea" (by the Mainland police) twice, it did not prevent the Guangzhou people from supporting Cantonese. There were more than 2000 participants joined that action.

The Planning and Zoning Commission of the City of Borger took time to discuss various items during a session held Monday evening.
First on the agenda was to receive and consider a request from Jeff Whittington to re-zone 1.5 acres of land located in the SE/4 of Sect. 18, Block "Y", M&C Survey, from single family (IF-2) zoning district to commercial zoning district to be known as 100 Denton. This piece of land is located off Houston and Gardner.
WICHITA FALLS-As the Borger Lady Bulldogs were entering the 4A soccer playoffs for the fourth season in a row, the expectations were that the team would hopefully find a way to break through to the area round to capture the first playoff victory in the history of the program in their contest against the Abilene Wylie Lady Bulldogs yesterday in Wichita Falls.
Unfortunately, Abilene Wyile showed what they entered the contest with an impressive 19-5-1 record and showed they were the District 6-4A champs by coming out early on their way to getting the 7-1 win to end Borger's season.
Despite the cold conditions, the Borger Bulldog boys golf team shot an impressive 306 to extend their lead in the District 1-3A standings after the second round of the district tournament on Monday at the Phillips Golf Course.
The Bulldogs were led by senior Will Paulsell who followed his 69 from a week ago with a 72 to have a two-round total of 141, which places him 10 strokes ahead of Hunter Wade of Perryton for the overall lead.
West Texas High's Comanches opened up district baseball with a disappointing 7-5 loss to Follett Saturday. The Comanches made four costly errors, but made a great comeback attempt in the bottom of the final inning. They had the runners on base, but just couldn't get them across home plate.
Logan Hoff pitched four innings and gave up five earned runs. Carlos Juarez threw three innings and gave up zero runs and allowed just one hit.
The new Hampton Inn of Borger will open on March 31. This hotel will have such features as 32-inch LCD televisions as well as free high-speed internet access.
A "Suite Shop" will be available for late night snacks or goodies for the road, along with a fitness center for people wanting to get in a good workout.
There is a Business Center that will be available 24 hours a day for hotel guests to print documents and boarding passes, check email messages or surf the web, etc., and a free continental breakfast is available.
The Crime Stoppers is seeking the help of the public in the resolution of an unsolved burglary that occurred earlier this month.
On March 17, 2011, during the evening hours, a residence in the 1100 block of Carpenter Street was burglarized.
During the burglary, several firearms were stolen from the residence. Also taken from the residence were gun sights, scopes, and rifle cases.
According to Lt. Anthony Griffin of the Borger Police Department, the estimated loss value of the firearms and accessories totaled near $2,000.
Vera Doughty, 85, of Stinnett, passed away Saturday, March 26, 2011, in Amarillo.
Vera Fay (Chase) Doughty was born in Bovina on May 24, 1925 to Edgar and Marie Chase. She married Oscar Doughty 66 years ago on Nov. 24, 1944, in Carlsbad, N.M. She was a housewife and a member of Fairlanes Baptist Church, where Vera was proud to be a charter member. Vera was involved in the WMU, Prayer Chain, and taught Sunday school classes through the years at several churches.
She is preceded in death by her parents.
A new business will be requesting a re-plat at the upcoming meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
The meeting is set to be held at 7 p.m. this evening in the city council chambers of Borger City Hall, 600 North Main.
The commission will receive and consider a request from CVS Pharmacy for a re-plat of Lots 4-11, Block 24, Unit 4, Thompson Addition, containing 1.303 acres, to be known as Lot 4, Block 24, Unit 4, Thompson Addition, 230 N. Cedar Street.
MIt's almost here!
The Hutchinson County Friends of the Library Spring Book sale is set to begin this Thursday, March 31, and it will run through Saturday, April 2, set to be held at the Borger branch of the Hutchinson County Library.
The sale will be open to members only on Thursday, with hours of 4-7 p.m. On Friday and Saturday, the sale will be open to the general public, with hours of 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on April 1, and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. April 2.

Arizona State Sun Devils
Graham: Winning a bowl game just the 'next step' for ASU program
Under first-year head coach Todd Graham, ASU gained bowl eligibility for the third consecutive season and defeated in-state rival UA.
But with just weeks left in his first season with the Sun Devils, Graham wants more from his team when they take on Navy on December 29 in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl.
"You're going to a bowl game first to win it and for the experience second," Graham said Sunday after practice. "The bowl experience is a great experience, but it's not any good if you don't win.
"Our goal is to win our eighth game and to win a bowl championship. Winning a bowl championship would be the next step for our program."
The Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl will be Graham's fifth appearance (3-1) as a coach in a bowl game. He previously took Rice to the New Orleans Bowl and Tulsa to the GMAC and Hawaii Bowls.
While the extra game allows the Sun Devils to practice 15 more times in 2012, similar to a spring camp, Graham was also very pleased to have the chance to play in a California-based bowl game for recruiting purposes.
"It's a great location for us and for our recruiting base," said Graham. "To go to the Bay Area is nice, because obviously California is such an important place for us. It's where a lot of our players' families are, and we have almost 20,000 alumni in that area. It's a perfect situation for us."
Graham and Co. will go up against a good 7-4 Midshipmen team led by the running duo of Gee Gee Greene and Noah Copeland. Before they play ASU, however, Navy still has its annual rivalry game on December 8 against Army.
"I've gone up against them quite a number of times," said Graham. "They are fierce, they are disciplined and very tough. They do a great job executing their system and scheme."
The Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl will mark the first time the two programs have met in football.

In his statement, Rono said Navarro was tied up and attacked by a group of men when he visited a female friend at her condominium unit in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig last Wednesday.
The film director said that while Navarro is now recovering, he may undergo an operation due to the injuries he sustained. The comedian, according to Rono, is also unable to talk properly following the attack.
"It's Showtime," which Navarro has co-hosted since 2009, carried on with its regular programming on Thursday and Friday, without mention from co-hosts of including Vice Ganda of the comedian's condition.
According to Rono, Navarro will temporarily not be seen on the noontime program and his other television projects as he continues to recover.
"Si Vhong Navarro ay naimbitahan sa isang condominium unit sa Fort ng isang kaibigang babae. At sa di pa malamang kadahilanan, siya ay piniringan, pinagtulungang bugbugin, ginapos, tinakot, at hinihingan ng pera ng isang grupo ng kalalakihan noong January 22, Miyerkules.
"Si Vhong ay kasalukuyang nagpapagaling at mawawala ng pansamantala sa 'It's Showtime' at iba pa niyang proyekto."

So I've officially decided that I'm done trying to start anything with people.
I've been putting in too much effort and energy into something which hasn't bore any fruit, and that I'm not entirely sure I like anyways. So I'm not going to try anymore, as much as I am terribly attracted to the idea, and wanted to. I'm just not.
I haven't got the time or the patience for it right now, and I guess it's just not meant to happen. It simplifies life so much when you're not going to give people anymore than they deserve. And I think from now on I'll stick to what I know and leave that business with those who want it more. I'm just getting in their way anyways, it's also causing me far too much distraction from more important tasks such as my studies. It isn't even as though I'm giving up or quitting, I just don't want it anymore.
I really just need to think things through more before deciding on a course of action, I feel like I've been wasting my time and I absolutely hate waste. I'm going to put my effort toward more effective ventures from this point on and hopefully will get more bang for my buck.
Talk to you guys in the future~
Boys are too much trouble, I'm sticking to the ladies.
There is no boob drooping
Really, think about it. If you went out to the middle of nowhere and just sat down in a ditch and cried by yourself until you were dead, who would be the first person to wonder where you'd gone?
Call them up! Maybe they want to get ice cream?"—Joey Comeau
So as week two of being single rolls around, there are significant changes in my behavior. People seem to appreciate it a little more so I suppose these changes will continue. I'm not too sure how they are actually taking it. I wish I could get an honest appraisal of my actions, but I can't rightly ask people to evaluate my life. That would be far too much of a task, and I'm not nearly as observant of myself as I am of others.
I've surely enjoyed the freedom that comes with being single; the lack of stress, no guilt when flirting with other people (that takes a little of the excitement away but it feels like the right way to do it), the dependency on me was the largest stressor related to my relationship, but I feel like there will be good done by people learning to become independent.
There's so many things going on right now it's hard to pick which one is more important. I guess I'll know which one to choose when I get to it.
Talk to you guys in the future~
