Two experiments explored the development of cynicism by examining how children evaluate other people who make claims consistent or inconsistent with their self-interests. In Experiment 1, kindergartners, second graders, and fourth graders heard stories with ambiguous conclusions in which characters made statements that were aligned either with or against self-interest. Older children took into account the self-interests of characters in determining how much to believe them: They discounted statements aligned with self-interest, whereas they accepted statements going against self-interest. Experiment 2 examined children's endorsement of three different explanations for potentially self-interested statements: lies, biases, and mistakes. Like adults, sixth graders endorsed lies and bias as plausible explanations for wrong statements aligned with self-interest; younger children did not endorse bias. Implications for the development of cynicism and children's understanding of bias are discussed.
We all tend to think of young children as naive and gullible. Indeed, some scientists have argued that gullibility in childhood is an evolutionary necessity required to enable children to learn a great deal in a hurry without doubting its content. Dawkins (1993), in describing a 6-year-old, stated such a view with characteristic flair:
When you are pre-programmed to absorb useful information at a high rate, it is hard to shut out pernicious or damaging information at the same time. With so many mindbytes to be downloaded, so many mental codons to be replicated, it is no wonder that child brains are gullible, open to almost any suggestion, vulnerable to subversion, easy prey to Moonies, Scientologists and nuns. Like immune-deficient patients, children are wide open to mental infections that adults might brush off without effort. (pp. 13–14)
But young children may not be completely naive and trusting. They may also have some sense of when to doubt, a drive to detect deceit and distortion that competes with an otherwise trusting nature. Children must eventually acquire some degree of cynicism as they move toward the adult practice of taking things with a grain of salt. In the research we report here, we explored the emergence of cynicism in early childhood. In some circumstances, even young children view the world with a healthy dose of cynicism, and may adjust their views of other people's statements in light of inferred motivations.
Many times, people cannot take what someone says at face value, and they must reflect on the speaker's knowledge, intent, and desires in order to evaluate the validity of the speaker's claims. When do children recognize the importance of these three factors? Even 4-year-olds understand that sometimes people do not have the right knowledge to provide accurate statements, and that others may be ignorant (Baron-Cohen, Leslie, & Frith, 1985; Sodian, 1988; Wimmer & Perner, 1983). Young children can use information about the knowledge and ignorance of speakers to learn new words (Birch & Bloom, 2003; Sabbagh & Baldwin, 2001). Older children understand that people sometimes employ sarcasm and irony, with the intent to mean something different from what is said (Creusere, 1999). Even 4-year-olds understand that speakers sometimes intend to deceive, saying something different from reality in order to get something they want (Bussey, 1992; Robinson, Mitchell, & Nye, 1995).
The third factor is the focus of the research we report here: How do people's assessments of the impact of desires or self-interests influence their judgments regarding the accuracy of a speaker's statements? Adults certainly think that self-interests and desires influence statements, actions, and beliefs (Miller, 1999). For example, people overestimate the influence of financial compensation on people's willingness to give blood; they also assume that group membership has a large influence on beliefs and attitudes (Miller & Ratner, 1998). Additionally, people expect that other people are motivationally biased when determining responsibility for positive and negative outcomes, a phenomenon termed naive cynicism (Kruger & Gilovich, 1999).
These intuitions drive how much adults credit or discredit the beliefs or statements of others. For example, if Michael is a member of one political party and makes an interpretation or a statement in favor of his own party and thus in accord with his self-interest, adults discount his statement (especially if they belong to an opposing party). Likewise, if Michael makes a statement against his own self-interest, adults are more likely to believe him (Murukutla & Armor, 2003). Much of the research suggests that adults assume that self-interests often unintentionally influence beliefs (a type of bias), as opposed to intentionally affecting what people say (a lie).
How do children move toward these adult intuitions? Little research has explored what children understand about how a desire or self-interest influences what people say or think. However, when children are told a story in which a character either likes or dislikes another character, even kindergartners understand that the character's preferences may influence his or her attributions of blame for ambiguous events involving the other character (e.g., a person who has been accused of breaking an object will be judged more favorably by a friend than by an enemy; Pillow, 1991). Thus, young children may have some understanding that desires, and potentially self-interests, can influence subsequent beliefs or statements, but the extent of that awareness remains unknown.
The experiments presented here address two issues regarding how children assess the impact of self-interests on what people say. First, do children even recognize that self-interests may affect the validity of someone's statements? In Experiment 1, children heard stories in which characters made statements aligned either with or against self-interest. The children were asked how much they believed the characters in question. We predicted that they would consider self-interests in making their judgments of believability.
Second, what mechanism do children endorse for how self-interests might influence what people say? In Experiment 2, children were presented with stories of characters that made wrong statements aligned either with or against self-interest; the children were then asked to choose from three potential explanations for the incorrect statements. These explanations corresponded to those that are often used in other research with adults, referring to lies (motivated, intentional errors in statements), biases (motivated but unintentional errors in beliefs), and mistakes (simple errors not influenced by intentions). Given that children under the age of 7 often overlook the importance of interpretation in shaping people's thoughts and beliefs (Carpendale & Chandler, 1996; Chandler & Lalonde, 1996), we predicted that young children might reject bias (an unintentional influence of self-interests on beliefs) as an explanation, preferring either lies or mistakes as an explanation of how someone could make an incorrect statement coinciding with or going against self-interest, respectively.
Twenty kindergartners (mean age = 6 years 0 months; range = 5 years 4 months to 6 years 8 months), 20 second graders (mean age = 7 years 11 months; range = 7 years 5 months to 8 years 7 months), and 20 fourth graders (mean age = 9 years 11 months; range = 8 years 10 months to 10 years 9 months) participated. The sample was gender balanced and reflected the distribution of ethnic and socioeconomic groups in the community. Children were recruited from the greater New Haven, Connecticut, area and were tested in a quiet room; each session took about 20 min.
Participants heard four kinds of stories, three of each type: with self-interest, against self-interest, truth, and lie. Half of these stories presented a character who would win a prize if certain conditions were met; whether or not these conditions were met was left ambiguous. For instance, in one story, Michael was in a running race, and he and another boy finished the race close together (thus leaving it ambiguous who actually won). For the with-self-interest stories, the main character affirmed that the conditions for him or her to win the prize had been met; for the against-self-interest stories, the character denied that the conditions had been met and claimed that he or she should not win the prize. It was left ambiguous what the main character actually knew about the outcome.
The other half of the stories were nonambiguous. For the truth condition, the character told the truth about his or her achievement, claiming to have won the prize. This kind of story controlled for a preference for people to disbelieve characters who say they won: For these stories, the character was truthful in saying that he or she won, and so participants should have believed the character. For the lie condition, the character lied and claimed not to have won the prize; these stories controlled for a preference to believe characters who say they lost.
All stories were about four sentences long. For counterbalancing, four sets were created, with 12 stories (3 of each type) in each, pseudorandomly arranged. The conclusions of the main character were varied (e.g., whether or not he won the race) so that each story served as a with-self-interest story for some sets and as an against-self-interest story in other sets.
Prior to testing, participants were trained to use a scale of 1 to 5 stars to rate how much they believed characters in a story, with 1 meaning do not believe at all, and 5 meaning believe completely. Children then heard several examples of statements made by a character named Jeffrey, and they were asked how much they believed each of Jeffrey's statements. All children were able to complete the training successfully, demonstrating an understanding of the different levels of ratings.
After training, participants were told that they would hear some stories, and that they would be asked to think about how much they believed each person. The experimenter then read the stories, periodically asking fact-check questions about the topic of the story and the statement made by the character in question. For each of the 12 stories, a pencil drawing was placed on the table to keep the children's attention. Each drawing referred to the topic of the story (e.g., a swimming competition, a bug collection), but did not provide any information about the outcome of the event. For instance, for the story about a swimming competition, the drawing depicted an empty swimming pool with lanes. Following each story, participants were asked to use the scale to rate how much they believed the main character in that story. They were then asked to explain why they chose that number.
For each story type (with self-interest, against self-interest, truth, and lie), we calculated the average rating across stories for children in each grade. See Figure 1 for participants' responses for the different story types.
A repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) with story type as a within-subjects variable and grade as a between-subjects variable showed a significant effect of story type, F(3, 171) = 119.91, p <.001, η2 =.678. We also found a Story Type × Grade interaction, F(6, 171) = 4.728, p < .001, η2 = .142.
As expected, all participants rated the believability of the characters in the truth scenarios higher than the believability of the characters in the lie scenarios, t(59) = 19.556, p < .001, d =3.681. Second and fourth graders believed characters in the against-self-interest scenarios significantly more than those in the with-self-interest scenarios, t(19) = 5.900, p < .001, d = 1.140, and t(19) = 2.471, p < .05, d = 0.689, respectively. Thus, these children thought characters who made statements against their self-interest were more believable than characters who made statements with their self-interest.
Kindergartners, however, showed the opposite pattern: They believed the statements aligned with self-interest more than the statements going against self-interest, t(19) = 2.251, p < .05, d = 0.548. According to many of their explanations, the kinder-gartners seemed to assume that someone who wants to win a prize or achieve a goal will do so. We touch on this finding again in the General Discussion.
In sum, even second graders are somewhat cynical in thinking about how self-interests influence what people say: They are less likely to believe statements consistent with self-interest than to believe statements against self-interest. But how do children come to think self-interests influence beliefs and statements? The explanations the children provided to justify their judgments offer some insight into this question. The children's explanations fell into three main categories: The character lied (made motivated, intentional errors in his or her statement), was biased (had erroneous beliefs that were motivated but unintentional), or made a mistake (made a simple error not influenced by intentions). From this study alone, however, it is difficult to draw conclusions regarding children's intuitions about the likelihood of each of these possible explanations of how self-interest influences beliefs and statements.
In Experiment 2, we followed up on these issues, providing children with similar stories, except that we explicitly pointed out that each character made an incorrect statement about the outcome of a competition (as opposed to leaving the outcome unclear). The children were then asked to choose between three potential explanations for why the character made that statement: The character lied, had a bias, or made a mistake. When adults are asked to provide explanations for similar types of stories, they prefer to explain incorrect statements in accord with self-interest as being the result of lies and bias, but see incorrect statements against self-interest as mistakes (Mills, Keil, & Effron, 2004). We predicted similar results with children, although we were unsure how often young children would endorse bias as an explanation.
Twenty kindergartners (mean age = 5 years 5 months; range = 4 years 9 months to 6 years 3 months), 20 second graders (mean age = 7 years 5 months; range = 6 years 11 months to 9 years 2 months), and 20 fourth graders (mean age = 9 years 8 months; range = 9 years 2 months to 11 years 9 months) participated. Additionally, 20 sixth graders (ages 11 or 12 years) completed a pencil-and-paper version of the task. Once again, the sample was gender balanced and reflected the distribution of ethnic and socioeconomic groups in the community. Recruitment methods were identical to those used in Experiment 1.
Each participant heard or read two kinds of stories, three of each type: with self-interest and against self-interest. These stories were similar to the stories in Experiment 1: Two characters that were friends were in a competition with uncertain results, and one character made a statement about the outcome of the competition; this statement was aligned either with or against self-interest. The knowledge state of the main character was once again not addressed in these stories, as we wanted to leave that open for interpretation (so as to allow for the children to posit mental states compatible with lies, biases, and mistakes). The counterbalancing methods from Experiment 1 were used.
Unlike in the first study, after the character made a claim about the outcome, the stories ended with a statement saying that the character was incorrect. For example, in the with-self-interest version of the running-race story, after the character claimed that he came across the finish line ahead and so should win the prize, the next statement said that the character was really wrong, that he came across the finish line behind his friend and so should not win.
For each story, participants were asked to choose the best explanation for the character's wrong statement. One explanation indicated that the character lied: The character knew he or she was wrong, but said differently to try to achieve a goal ("Michael knew he crossed the finish line behind his friend, but he said he was ahead because he wanted to win. His wanting to win made him try to trick his friend."). Another explanation indicated that the character was biased: The character's desire to get the prize made him or her misperceive the situation ("Because Michael wanted to win the race, he really thought that he finished ahead. His wanting to win made him think he finished ahead of his friend."). A third explanation indicated that the character made a mistake: Self-interest played no role in the character's error, but for some other reason (such as physical perspective or failure of attention), he or she misperceived the situation ("Because Michael just made a mistake, he really thought he had finished ahead. It was just a mistake: He could have just as easily thought he was behind.").
Each story was accompanied by six pictures. Three pictures depicted the story itself, representing the two characters in the story, what the main character said, and what really happened. The other three pictures, shown in two frames each, represented the three choices for explanations for the character's wrong statement. Sample pictures are available on the Web (http://pantheon.yale.edu/~cmm55/cynicism.htm).
Each experimental session began with a short training session aimed at introducing the children to the kinds of pictures that would accompany the stories. Next, the experimenter provided an example of bias, reading a story involving a character who really wanted a valentine, and who thought a pink envelope in her mailbox was a valentine for her, even though it was for her mother. The children were then given an example of a lie (Jeffrey knew that he broke his mother's favorite lamp, but said his dog broke it) and an example of a mistake (Jorge, playing hide-and-seek with a friend, mistakenly thought his friend was behind one box when he was really behind the other). The children were asked to explain what happened in each story so the experimenter could make sure they understood the example; if they did not, the experimenter reread the story. All examples were accompanied by pictures, which were described as just being there to help the children keep track of what was being said.
The children were then told that they were going to listen to some stories and answer some questions. At the beginning of each story, the experimenter introduced the characters in the story, displaying a picture with two stick-figure people wearing shirts of different colors. The children then heard the rest of the story. For example, Michael was in a running race, and he and another boy finished the race close together. The children were then told, "Michael says to the judge that he came across the finish line ahead, and so he should win. But Michael was wrong—he really crossed the finish line behind, and he should not win." Two additional pictures were placed on the table: one depicting what Michael said (with a speech bubble) and a second depicting what really happened.
The children were frequently asked fact-check questions regarding the topic of the story, what the character said, and what really happened. They then heard the three potential explanations (in random order) for why the character made the incorrect statement. For each explanation, a picture was displayed. The children were asked to point to the best explanation.
The sixth-grader pencil-and-paper version included a set of written instructions with the accompanying examples from the experimenter's script. Each of the stories was presented on a separate page, along with small versions of the corresponding pictures. Participants indicated their response by checking off a box next to their answer.
The number of endorsements was calculated for each type of explanation (lie, bias, and mistake) for both with-self-interest and against-self-interest stories (see Fig. 2). A repeated measures ANOVA with grade as a between-subjects factor and story type (with self-interest and against self-interest) and explanation type (lie, bias, and mistake) as within-subjects factors showed a main effect of explanation in that children preferred lies and mistakes as explanations more often than biases, F(2, 152) = 26.440, p < .001, η2 = .193. There was a significant interaction between story type and explanation type, F(2, 152) = 69.054, p < .001, η2 = .476. There was also a trend toward an interaction of story type, explanation type, and grade, F(6, 152) = 1.860, p = .057, η2 = .076.
To examine the differences in average number of endorsements as a function of the story type, we conducted separate repeated measures ANOVAs for with-self-interest and against-self-interest stories. For against-self-interest stories, there was a significant difference across explanation types, F(2, 152) = 54.644, p < .001, η2 = .418. There was no explanation-by-grade interaction. The children chose mistakes significantly more than biases or lies for these stories, t(79) = 6.443, p < .001, d = 1.993, and t(79) = 10.796, p < .001, d = 1.357. The children also endorsed lies more often than biases, t(79) = 2.446, p < .050, d = .428.
For with-self-interest stories, there was a significant difference across explanation types as well, F(2, 152) = 23.292, p < .001, η2 = .235. In general, children endorsed lies significantly more than biases or mistakes, t(79) = 5.188, p < .001, d = 1.03, and t(79) = 5.883, p < .001, d = 1.162, respectively. There was no significant difference between biases and mistakes, t(79) = 0.774, p = .441.
For the with-self-interest stories, there was also a trend for an explanation-by-grade interaction, F(6, 152) = 2.113, p = .136, η2 = .061. Given that young children rarely endorsed biases as an explanation for with-self-interest stories, we wanted to see if the endorsement of bias varied across development. While kindergartners, second graders, and fourth graders endorsed lies more often than biases, t(19) = 3.488, p < .005, d = 1.413; t(19) = 3.835, p < .005, d = 1.319; and t(19) = 3.857, p = .001, d = 1.615, respectively, sixth graders chose both lies and biases, not preferring either of these explanations to the other, t(19) = 0.603, p = .554.
By second grade, children hold the same intuitions as adults about how self-interests influence interpretations. They doubt individuals making statements in accord with self-interests, whereas they increase their belief of individuals making statements against self-interests. In addition, even young children intuitively explain self-interested incorrect statements in terms of lies, while explaining incorrect statements against self-interest in terms of mistakes. In a sense, young children seem to be even more cynical than adults in this task, assuming that people must be intentionally misleading others even when they may not be.
Understanding of unintentional influences on beliefs or statements shows considerable development. Although children occasionally offered bias as an explanation during the exploratory questioning for Experiment 1, kindergartners through fourth graders rarely endorsed bias as the best possible explanation for the stories in Experiment 2. The concept of bias may therefore be difficult to grasp early on. It is not until sixth grade that children begin to endorse lies and biases as equally plausible explanations for self-interested incorrect statements. An understanding of unconsciousness develops over the elementary-school years (Flavell, Green, Flavell, & Lin, 1999), and it may be difficult for children to grasp this concept and its causal influences. Future research should explore the emergence of an understanding of bias in children.
In sum, people's beliefs and statements are not always accurate. People may attempt to deliberately deceive others, they may be influenced by biases that they are not even aware of, or they may simply be mistaken. Adults are clearly sensitive to all three sources of inaccuracy and use information about a speaker's self-interests to adjust their interpretations of a speaker's message. The ability to make such adjustments starts to emerge quite early in development, but it does not first appear in the adult form. Young children are less likely than adults to give people who make incorrect statements in their own favor the benefit of the doubt, assuming instead that these kinds of inaccuracies arise from a malicious intent to deceive. In addition, kindergartners may think that really wanting an event to be true increases the likelihood that it is correct to state that it is true, apparently being strongly influenced by a desire for there to be a congruence between desired outcomes and actual outcomes. Children may be more gullible than adults and may at first assume that if one really wants something to be true, it probably is; but the seeds of doubt are also present from an early age and develop dramatically in the elementary-school years.

Zachary Quinto producing Hurricane Katrina drama
Zachary Quinto's production company Before The Door Pictures is teaming with Killer Films to produce "Imperial Palace," a love story that takes place in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. It's not known whether Quinto will appear in the film.
"Imperial Palace" centers on a Biloxi man who manages a casino that FEMA uses as headquarters for their relief efforts in the area. An ex-girlfriend also arrives on the scene, sparking an uncomfortable love triangle.
Killer Films' Christine Vachon and Pam Koffler are producing with Quinto Neal Dodson and Corey Moosa. The film will be directed by Victor Quinaz (the upcoming "TWV Project," also produced by Quinto), and is scheduled to start shooting next spring.
Quinto produced the financial crisis drama "Margin Call," now in theaters. It stars Quinto, Kevin Spacey, Jeremy Irons and Demi Moore.
"Christine Vachon is a mentor to us, and we feel very lucky to work with her and Killer on this project," said Quinto in a press release. "We're thrilled to take the momentum of 'Margin Call' and our experience working with Victor on his first film to move into a second feature with him. He's a truly original talent, and 'Imperial Palace' is a perfect example of his unique, commercial voice."
Vachon added, "Killer is very excited to be working on this great project. It's a thrill to be in business with Victor, Zachary and Neal. Quinaz has written the rare kind of film that puts its finger directly on the pulse of today's America. The country experiences these tragedies, be they man-made or (in this case) levied by nature, which bring out both the best in communities and the worst in our government. 'Imperial Palace' is a compelling story about the people who are caught in-between the human response of empathy and the social reaction of bureaucracy in the aftermath of such a tragedy."
On the acting side, Quinto will reprise his role as Spock in J.J. Abrams' upcoming "Star Trek" sequel.

Northwoods Girl Scouts Tackle Bullying
Submitted: 03/22/2013
Story By Lyndsey Stemm
- We hear more and more about bullying in schools every day. One local Girl Scout troop saw it was becoming a problem in their school. So they did something about it.
Junior Girl Scout Troop 7091 needed to do something to help the community to earn their teamwork badge. They wanted to tackle bullying.
"Because lots of it was going on and we just wanted to help prevent it," says Leah Shaver.
"It could happen at any age level. It doesn't just have to be the older kids. It can happen in kindergarten too," says Gabi Lawrey.
Together the girls wrote a screen play about a girl who is bullied. By the end of the project they had a video called "The Bully Diaries" that they could show to their younger classmates.
Each troop member has had their own experiences with bullies.
"I know I have been bullied. It has happened since, maybe, first or second grade," says Emma Beckman.
"This boy in my class, he bullied this girl a lot and it kind of got me a little upset because it was going on like every day," says Shaver.
"I know somebody who bullies people. She... I think she knows she's bullying people," says Lawrey.
The girls think they know why some kids might be scared to stand up for other kids to bullies.
"You always think, 'What if they come back and start bullying you'," says Lawrey.
But like their video shows, getting other people to stand up to a bully with you makes it easier. And they think it's worth taking the risk.
"They're all human beings, and they don't deserve to be bullied," says Beckman.
"I'm not scared. I know that it's right. Some people think they don't want to stick up for people because they'll get made fun of too. But if it's the right thing to do they should do it," says Shaver.
A lesson they hope their video teaches other kids.

- Watching her grandsons, Ben and Marty, learn to play in harmony with a large group of strangers, Jeanne Wieland knew the outdoor concert was a proud moment.
"Nice to see them develop the confidence in their abilities," Wieland said.
Wieland drove up to Stevens Point from northwestern Illinois to join her family at the UW-Stevens Point's "American Suzuki Institute."
The week-long camp brings together more than 1,000 students and families to learn the Suzuki method.
"There are so many ways to get the kids focused on what they're doing and if they, like normal kids, get off they are able to bring them back," Wieland said of the camp's instructors. "It's not painful."

Rhinelander community supports family in need
Submitted: 07/27/2016
- At 51 years old, Rhinelander's Chris Moore felt off for months. In May it got worse. His wife knew something was wrong.
"Oh no we're going to call an ambulance," said Chris Moore.
Doctors diagnosed Moore with unhealthy heart muscle, an irregular heartbeat, and heart failure. His heart now works at 20 percent. Moore had to resign from his job a grave digger.
"Hardest thing I've ever done was to sit and watch," said Chris Moore.
Moore's wife Sherri only works part-time and says Chris may have to wait months to years for social security disability to kick in.
"We sold a truck, boat," said Sherri.
But it wasn't enough to pay the bills. That's when a friend unexpectedly stepped up.
Janelle Schroder is putting on rummage and baking sales this week. She is also putting on a benefit for the Moore Family in August.
"I knew somebody had to do something," said Schroder.

The U.S. is one of the last GAAP holdouts but that could change by 2014. The SEC will make a final decision about IFRS in 2011 about universal use of IFRS but some 100 or so large companies with international operations could use the system sooner.
Executives have told me personally that they prefer IFRS because it is easier to use and more intuitive.
Here are some pros:
- IFRS will save money. As more companies go global, they won't have to spend money doing two sets of books.
- Being principles-based, IFRS allows more leeway in how companies can portray their financial performance.
- IFRS will make cross-border investments easier.
- Not many U.S. business schools teach IFRS.
- Inconsistencies in IFRS such as how research costs are explained and its tendency to allow higher earnings statements need to be worked out.
- Small and middle-sized firms may beunfairly hit with extra costs just as they were with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Teese wins the 2008 Sand green championships
One hundred and seventy-five keen golfers teed off for the 2008 Queensland Sand Green Championships held in Longreach over the Queen's birthday long weekend.

One hundred and seventy-five keen golfers teed off for the 2008 Queensland Sand Green Championships held in Longreach over the Queen's birthday long weekend.
People travelled from all over Queensland to take part in the event, and one ex-Longreach resident was keen enough to fly over from Fremantle in Western Australia.
Colin Teese from the Gold Coast won the event with a spectacular putt at the last hole. He said that he just kept his head screwed on and managed to get in front. "I had a few missed opportunities early and kept it together, and when I had an opportunity to make a birdie, I capitalised."
He's also looking forward to a future in golf and plans to ultimately get into coaching. "I'm applying to do my traineeship down at Royal Pines on the Gold Coast in 2009 and one day I'd like to have a crack at the tour, but we'll just see how things go from here."
Although this was Mr Teese first weekend playing on the Longreach course, he's had some experience playing on sand greens. "I grew up playing junior golf in Texas [Queensland]," he explained.
For many it was as much a social occasion as game of golf. Tim Mullins from Emerald said he particularly enjoys the social aspect of the game and he was also conned into the job of chief chef on the breakfast shift.
He spent a couple of years in Longreach before moving to Emerald and said that he's been hooked on the sand greens ever since. "It's a very social event and the sand green players are people by themselves, there's no doubt about that."
Eight players made the trip up from Roma and John Letheridge said that although the Roma course has grass greens he likes to support this event. "It's good to get all the country golfers together and a lot of those that used to be in the country come back - it was just a great weekend really."
He said that he didn't play too bad... "But I think this course is tremendous, it's a real challenge and so it's a real credit to the people of Longreach. I really urge the Longreach people to keep it going."
Adam Gemmel from Ipswich was one of the Queensland players sent out to challenge the western sand green players. He was the A grade gross winner and finished just one shot behind Teese. He was pleased about the free trip to Longreach. "I went out last year to Cunnamulla and they decided to send me out again this year which is good."
Greg Swan, is the Treasurer of the Longreach Golf Club and one of the key organisers of the event, he said that 175 players was a record. "That's a record for this club for sure and thankfully we got them through in the daylight with no problems."
Mr Swan was also the holder of the Longreach course record and that was trumped on the Sunday. "I believe it was," he said. "Michael Derrick from Roma had a 5-under today, I had it at 4-under, but they were lucky I wasn't out there playing this weekend!"
So who were the local players of note? "Mick Tanks won the B-grade, but we had Matthew Miller from Barcaldine and his father Jeffrey," said Mr Swan. "Unfortunately Mattie didn't get over the line but he wasn't that far behind. He's still a force to be reckoned with, Mattie, he hasn't given up yet!"
The C-grade gross winner was Peter Goody from Gracemere. More results from the 2008 Queensland Sand Green Championships are available on the Golf Queensland website (see link below).

Physics Today Daily Edition
Nearby small star has three planets in its habitable region
Atlantic: An exoplanet is commonly found by the telltale dimming of the light of a star as the planet passes in front of it. Earth-sized planets orbiting bright, hot stars like the Sun are nearly impossible to detect, however, because they are so small they don't block much of the star's brightness. For that reason, Michaël Gillon of the University of Liège in Belgium decided to look for planets in orbit around the smallest, dimmest stars. Most theories of planetary formation suggest that such stars should not have enough material around them to form planets, but Gillon argued that the theories are based on very few observations. Using the Transiting Planets and Planetesimals Small Telescope (TRAPPIST) located in Chile, Gillon and his colleagues have identified an ultracool red dwarf only 40 light-years away and orbited by three planets. Subsequent observations from TRAPPIST and other observatories have revealed that all three are Earth-sized and are located in the habitable zone—the region around a star where liquid water may exist. Because of the star's small size and dimness, its habitable zone is much closer to it than the Sun's habitable zone is to the Sun. The closest two planets orbit the star every 1.5 days and 2.4 days.

Different kinds of knowledge tied to concern about climate change
Ars Technica: Several past experiments have found that increasing people's knowledge of climate change doesn't necessarily raise their concern about the issue. However, a new paper argues that because those studies treated "knowledge about climate change" as a monolithic concept, they don't necessarily reflect reality. The researchers separated knowledge into three categories: physical knowledge, causes knowledge, and consequences knowledge. Physical knowledge includes understanding concepts such as how carbon dioxide is produced; causes knowledge includes comprehending the effect humans have had on climate change; and consequences knowledge includes grasping the predicted global and local effects of climate change. In a survey of 2495 people in six countries—the US, Canada, China, Germany, Switzerland, and the UK—participants were asked their level of concern about climate change; then they were given questions that tested the three categories of knowledge. Researchers found that although greater physical knowledge correlated with lower concern, greater causes knowledge correlated with greater concern. Greater consequences knowledge also correlated with greater concern, except in Canada and China. Although the new questionnaire has limitations, it provides groundwork for future surveys on the topic.
Second ExoMars mission postponed until 2020
Sputnik International: Less than two months after the launch of the first part of ExoMars, the Russian space agency Roscosmos announced that the launch of the second component will be delayed by two years, until 2020. ExoMars is a joint mission of Roscosmos and the European Space Agency. The first part of the mission, which will reach Mars orbit in October, includes an orbiter and a lander for studying the Martian atmosphere. Part two includes a rover that will drill into the Martian surface to search for life and perform geochemistry research. According to the team running the rover mission, the decision to postpone the second launch was made because of problems with the contractors and delays in production of the mission's scientific equipment.

Report supports ITER's delayed schedule but not its ballooning budget
Science: Last year, the council of representatives for the member states supporting the ITER fusion energy project in southern France created an independent panel to review the project's revised budget and schedule. Since construction began in 2013, ITER has been plagued with cost overruns and delays. In its report presented on 27 April, the panel said that although the revised startup date of 2025 is reasonable, the additional €4.6 billion ($5.3 billion) that will be needed to complete the project is not. In response, the council has instructed the ITER management team to find a way to continue with construction without exceeding the financial constraints. Projected costs for ITER, which was originally scheduled to be completed this year, have reached roughly $20 billion. The ballooning costs and sliding completion dates have caused several of the member states to consider cutting their support.

Microsoft begins testing DNA for data storage
Ars Technica: At nearly 1 zettabyte (1 billion terabytes) per gram, DNA has a significantly higher data storage density than conventional storage systems. And the molecule is extremely robust: Fragments that are thousands of years old have been sequenced. The successful encoding of binary data as DNA base pairs in 2010 opened up the potential for using the molecule for long-term data storage. Now Microsoft is purchasing 10 million strands of DNA from Twist Bioscience, a biotech startup that has developed a machine for producing custom strings of DNA. Twist has been producing DNA for biology research labs. Currently, the price is roughly $0.10 per base, but Twist hopes to reduce that cost to $0.02. Reading the data involves traditional genetic sequencing, which costs about $1000 per genome. In initial tests with Twist, Microsoft says it has succeeded in retrieving all the data that had been encoded in the DNA. The price of storage means that commercial use is still a ways off, but improvements in both creating and sequencing DNA molecules will likely lead to lower costs.

I for one do not short stocks -- I post opinions and have a hearty laugh at how seriously others defend their "knowledge" that WAG is a great company --- I do not dispute that WAG is a great company --- what I do dispute is those who say it is a great investment -- in the 21st century WAG has done nothing but go down in value -- for anyone to cry to the SEC about that is indeed a joke --- everyone has the final decision in their investments --- if you did not sell @ $45 a share the SEC will not rescue you!
We got some bashers here too, never realized the Street.com pays people to bash good companies but it makes sense. That's proably why these bashers here are so dedicated, just like whores they prostitute themselves out for the Street.com. Then Street.com can say look how good we are at spotting the bad companies, you must subscribe to us. I have heard the SEC has been looking into the practices of the Street.com, I hope they get their clock cleaned. I'll send an e-mail off to the SEC ASAP about these Wag bashers, lets see how HAHAHAHA they are with the SEC up their ass with a microsope.
hey dude with you as one of wag the fat hag longs, wag the hag is doom! you don't have a clue to investment.

Holstein Adult Horse Riding Jodhpur Boots - Black
Products benefits
Additional information
A very comfortable, well made, good looking boot. -
This is the first time I have bought from Decathlon and ordered the wrong size. I sent them back and they were replaced by return. All the staff I spoke to or contacted were really helpful. I will definitely use Decathlon again. Many thanks!
Well made, reasonably priced boots -
I have just purchased my second pair of these boots because I was so pleased with the first, which are still going strong after over a year of constant use. In the past when I have purchased this type of boot from other suppliers, the heels needed replacing after about a year because they had worn down so much. These boots have not had that problem at all.
Look good No padding
These are quite flimsy and have no padding at the top of the foot to protect against being trodden on, in fact there is no reason to think these are actually specifically for riding at all!!

The Burns Paiute Natural Resources Department was created to protect and enhance fish and wildlife, to prevent further resource losses that impact traditional land uses, to ensure environmental standards on the reservation are met, and to provide training and employment opportunities for Burns Paiute Tribal Members.
Our Current Projects
-Logan Valley Wildlife Mitigation
Help Fund the Malheur River Recovery Project
In recent years a primary focus of the fisheries program for the Burns Paiute Tribe has been to recover the Malheur River. Currently, invasive Brook Trout are the most devastating threat to native species as they have driven native Bull Trout populations to the brink of extirpation. This is a historically important watershed for the Paiute people and retaining native species, whether fish, wildlife, or vegetation, is a key to safeguarding its cultural importance. Please click and share this link to donate to the Malheur River recovery actions so the Tribe's Natural Resources Department can continue this vital work.
Contact us
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact any of our staff. Our office is open to tribal members and the public from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, with the exception of federal holidays.
From 395 southbound toward Burns: Turn right at junction of HWY 395 and 20 towards Burns. As you enter town, you will pass a park with playground equipment on your right. Take the next immediate right onto Foley Road. Go about a 1.3 mile until the road forks. Proceed straight through fork. Our office is about 149 yards on the left.
