She was covered in black latex catsuit with black latex hood and latex gloves. On top of that, a nice puffed latex blouse and a miniskirt.

STATE OF TENNESSEE v. RICHARD BURTON
Court: TCCA
Tom W. Crider, Trenton, Tennessee, for the appellant, Richard Burton.
Robert E. Cooper, Jr., Attorney General and Reporter; David H. Findley, Assistant Attorney General; Garry G. Brown, District Attorney General; Edward L. Hardister and Harold E. Dorsey, Assistant District Attorneys General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.
Judge: MCLIN
The defendant, Richard Burton, was convicted of one count of introducing contraband into a penal institution. On appeal, he argues that he was erroneously convicted of an offense for which he was not indicted. In addition, the defendant argues that the trial court's interpretation of the statute resulted in a duplicitous indictment and the trial court's jury charge prevented a unanimous jury verdict. Following our review of the parties' briefs, the record, and the applicable law, we reverse the judgment of the trial court, vacate the conviction and dismiss the charges against the defendant.
STATE OF TENNESSEE v. JOHNNY B. COX
Court: TCCA
George Morton Googe, District Public Defender, and Gregory D. Gookin, Assistant Public Defender, for the appellant, Johnny B. Cox.
Robert E. Cooper, Jr., Attorney General and Reporter; Leslie E. Price, Assistant Attorney General; James G. Woodall, District Attorney General; and Shaun Alan Brown, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.
Judge: TIPTON
The defendant, Johnny B. Cox, was convicted by a Madison County Circuit Court jury of two counts of assault, a Class A misdemeanor. He was sentenced to the maximum sentence of eleven months and twenty-nine days for each count, to be served consecutively, with his release eligibility set at seventy-five percent. The defendant was ordered to pay a fine of $2500 for the first count and a fine of $500 for the second count. In this appeal, the defendant raises the issue of whether the evidence was sufficient to support his convictions. We affirm the judgments of the trial court.
STATE OF TENNESSEE v. CAMELIA MONIQUE FIELDS
Court: TCCA
Gregory D. Gookin, Jackson, Tennessee, for the appellant, Camelia Monique Fields.
Robert E. Cooper, Jr., Attorney General and Reporter; Lacy Wilber, Assistant Attorney General; James G. Woodall, District Attorney General; and Alfred L. Earls, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.
Judge: MCGEE OGLE
The appellant pled guilty in the Madison County Circuit Court to theft of property valued between $1,000 and $10,000. The trial court sentenced her as a Range I, standard offender to two years to be served on probation supervised by Community Corrections. On appeal, the appellant contends that the trial court erroneously denied her request for judicial diversion. Upon review of the record and the parties' briefs, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
STATE OF TENNESSEE v. MONTREAL LYONS
Court: TCCA
Gerald S. Green, Memphis, Tennessee, for the Appellant, Montreal Lyons.
Robert E. Cooper, Jr., Attorney General and Reporter; Cameron L. Hyder, Assistant Attorney General; William L. Gibbons, District Attorney General, and Stacy McEndree, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.
Judge: SMITH
Appellant, Montreal Lyons, was convicted by a Shelby County jury of four counts of aggravated robbery and one count of especially aggravated kidnapping. The trial court merged the four aggravated robbery convictions into two convictions. Appellant was sentenced as a Range I, Standard Offender to twelve years for each aggravated robbery conviction and as a Range I, Violent Offender to twenty years for the especially aggravated kidnapping conviction. The trial court ordered the sentences to run consecutively to each other, for a total effective sentence of forty-four years. On appeal, Appellant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the especially aggravated kidnapping conviction and his sentence. Because the evidence was sufficient to support the conviction it is affirmed. We also find that the trial court properly ordered consecutive sentencing. Furthermore, Appellant's remaining challenge to his sentence has been waived and we decline to address it via plain error review.
CHARLES V. MOSLEY v. JAMES MORROW, WARDEN
Court: TCCA
Charles V. Mosley, Pro Se.
Robert E. Cooper, Jr., Attorney General and Reporter; Renee W. Turner, Assistant Attorney General, and J. Michael Taylor, District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.
Judge: MCGEE OGLE
The petitioner, Charles V. Mosley, appeals the dismissal of his petition for writ of habeas corpus. The State has filed a motion requesting that this court affirm the trial court's judgment pursuant to Rule 20, Rules of the Court of Criminal Appeals. The petitioner has failed to meet the mandatory procedural requirements for filing a habeas corpus petition, and the petition fails to establish a cognizable claim for habeas corpus relief. Accordingly, the State's motion is granted, and the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.

U.S. To Face Grenada, Honduras and Haiti in 2009 CONCACAF Gold Cup
CHICAGO (April 2, 2009) — The United States will kick off its Gold Cup title defense against Grenada, Honduras and Haiti after being drawn into Group B of the 2009 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
The U.S. will first take on Grenada on July 4 at 6 p.m. PT at Qwest Field in Seattle. The team then crosses the country to face Honduras on July 8 at 9 p.m. ET at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C., before rounding out group play against Haiti on July 11 at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., with kickoff slated for 7 p.m. ET. The U.S. has never lost a match in group play, holding a 21-0-1 lifetime record.
The U.S. is seeking to become the second team to win three consecutive Gold Cups, having claimed the crown in 2005 and 2007. Mexico won three consecutive titles from 1993 to 1998 and also won in 2003. The United States has won four times since the tournament began in 1991, including three of the last four events.
The U.S. will face Grenada for only the third time in history, and the first in the Gold Cup. The teams squared off in the second round of qualifying for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, the U.S. winning 3-0 on June 13, 2004, in Columbus before taking the away leg with a 3-2 win in St. George's eight days later.
Qwest Field will host the U.S. for the second time in Gold Cup action, as the MNT won group matches at the venue against Cuba and Canada en route to capturing the 2005 title. Overall, the U.S. holds a 3-0-0 record in the new home of Seattle Sounders FC.
The United States will be playing against Honduras for the fourth time in Gold Cup history, and the first in the nation's capital. The teams squared off in the championship match of the inaugural tournament on July 7, 1991, at the Los Angeles Coliseum, with the U.S. claiming top honors with a 4-3 win on penalty kicks following a scoreless 120 minutes. Most recently, the U.S. overcame a 1-0 deficit with two late goals to snatch a 2-1 win in the semifinals of the 2005 Gold Cup on July 21 at Giants Stadium. Overall, the U.S. is 2-0-1 against Honduras in tournament history.
Despite having played 17 times at historic RFK Stadium, this is the USA's first Gold Cup match in Washington, D.C. The U.S. is 11-3-3 lifetime in the building. The U.S. and Honduras met once before at RFK during qualifying for the 2002 FIFA World Cup. The 3-2 loss for the United States marked the last time they were defeated by a CONCACAF opponent on home soil, a string of 52 matches.
The meeting with Honduras will come one month after the teams meet in the final round of FIFA World Cup qualifying at Soldier Field in Chicago on June 6. More than 15,000 tickets have been sold for the match, which is the next at home for the U.S.
The meeting against Haiti gives the U.S. a chance to draw even in the series between the nations. Haiti is one of two teams in CONCACAF to have a winning record against the United States, holding a lifetime 6-5-4 advantage. The teams have met once before in the regional championship event, a 3-0 win for the U.S. on Feb. 12, 2000, in Miami.
The U.S. is no stranger to seeing Gold Cup action in Foxborough, having played seven times at Gillette Stadium since 2003. The U.S. has never lost in the venue in tournament play, boasting an unbeaten 6-0-1 record that includes six shutouts, 18 goals scored and only one surrendered. The U.S. has played quarterfinal matches there in the past three tournaments, defeating Cuba, Jamaica and Panama respectively. Landon Donovan became the fourth player in U.S. history to record four goals in one game when the U.S. overwhelmed Cuba 5-0 on July 19, 2003.
If the U.S. advance out of the group in the top two places, they will head down the Northeast Corridor to Philadelphia's Lincoln Financial Field for a July 18 quarterfinal. The U.S. Men haven't played a match in Pennsylvania since 1993 in Bethlehem, and the appearance in the City of Brotherly Love would be the first since a match with England's Sheffield Wednesday at Veterans Stadium on Aug. 2, 1991. The last international played by the U.S. in Philadelphia was a 4-0 loss to Israel on Sept. 25, 1968. If the U.S. advance as one of the two best third-place teams, their quarterfinal will be played on July 19 in the Dallas Cowboys new stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The Gold Cup semifinals and finals will be played in stadiums where the U.S. has clinched their last two Gold Cups. The site of the 2007 final, Chicago's Soldier Field, will host the semifinals on July 23, while Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. will host the final as it did in 2005.
The U.S. claimed the regional crown in 2007 with a come-from behind victory against Mexico at Soldier Field. After falling behind just two minutes before halftime, a Landon Donovan penalty kick in the 62nd and a highlight reel volley from Benny Feilhaber in the 73rd put the U.S. on the podium for the second consecutive time.
In addition to the four aforementioned titles in the first eight editions of the regional championship, the U.S. has also finished second twice and third twice. Overall, the U.S. has a 34-4-5 record in Gold Cup play, and the U.S. is 3-1 in penalty shootouts. Brazil and Mexico are each responsible for two of the U.S. defeats, while Colombia eliminated the U.S. on penalties in the 2000 quarterfinals.
Prior to the Gold Cup opener in Seattle, the U.S. will be coming off a stretch of at least five games in the previous 31 days. The U.S. plays at Costa Rica on June 3 in FIFA World Cup qualifying, before returning home to host Honduras in Chicago on June 6. Then the U.S. heads to South Africa for the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup – a tournament for which the U.S. qualified as 2007 Gold Cup champions – for matches against Italy, Brazil and Egypt in the group stage.

Am I Making a Terrible Mistake?Visitor's Question from a 21-30 year old Female
I'm interested in him but don't know how to let him know. Every time I see him I get really excited and nervous. I've been dropping very subtle hints but I don't think he's noticed. I'm afraid to go all out because I'm afraid (of rejection, embarassment, etc.) I can't get him out of my head, but at the same time I'm terrified! Is there a way to tell if he's shy vs. not interested?
RomanceClass.com Advice
A good way to find out if he is shy or if he doesn't care is to walk up and talk to him.
If he is shy, it will be obvious by the way he acts.
If you are too shy to do that try this approach: whenever you meet him in the hall, look him straight in the eyes, say hi plus his name, and give him a big smile.
If he is shy he will look away or weakly say hi back to you. If he is not shy but not interested, he will say hi but without much enthusiasm.
But don't give up on him because it is really difficult to always tell the difference.
Good luck! George

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

November 9, 2009 — Vol. 25 No. 36
Jason Pretty Boy, an Idaho State University political science student and a coordinator of the ISU College of Business Native American Business Administration (NABA) Program, has been awarded a First Nations Leadership and Entrepreneurial Apprenticeship Development (LEAD) Program Fellowship for 2009-10.
I was surprised I received it, but I am very pleased, Pretty Boy said. The program is designed to develop leadership positions in tribes and nonprofit organizations that deal with Native American issues.
Pretty Boy, a Lakota Sioux tribal member, grew up in the Burley-Declo area and earned a two-year degree in business at the United Tribes Technical College in North Dakota. His work background is varied and he is now also a part-time employee at the KISU radio station and was once the news director there. He is a senior political science student. As a coordinator for NABA, Pretty Boy assists Native American business students to prepare for careers as entrepreneurs, business managers and administrators.
We are delighted that the First Nations Development Institute has recognized the leadership roles that Jason occupies and the work he has accomplished with our Native American students and educational programming at ISU, said Stephen Adkison, ISU associated vice president of academic programming. Jasons selection as a LEAD Fellow is great honor both for him and for our institution, and we are happy to support his fellowship activities.
The First Nations Development Institute is funded by a consortium of private foundations as well as contributions from individual supporters including the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Ford Foundation and American Express. LEAD is an intensive one-year program that brings current Native nonprofit leaders and their organizations together with young Native professionals identified as having the potential to become the next generation of Native nonprofit leaders. Currently, First Nations has LEAD program cohorts based in Colorado, Oregon and Washington.
The LEAD programs goal is to develop a new pool of nonprofit leaders to meet the needs of the growing Native American nonprofit sector. LEAD Fellows are employed by a nonprofit organization or planning a career in the nonprofit sector, are committed to a career working in Native communities, and are affiliated with a tribe.
The one-year mentorship program will train participants in areas critical to successful nonprofit leaders, including financial management, factors affecting Native or reservation-based nonprofit organizations, fundraising, program evaluation and service leadership.
Pretty Boy is a member of the 2009-10 Seattle LEAD Apprentice Cohort, which has selected the Potlatch Fund to be the host organization for a cohort of five to 10 emerging native professionals who could benefit from mentorship and leadership training. There will be monthly mentoring meeting held at the Potlatch Funds office in downtown Seattle and quarterly training sessions to be facilitated by either the Potlatch Fund or the First Nations Development Institute. He will also attend LEAD training events including that annual LEAD Institute in Albuquerque, N.M., Jan. 13-15 and he may have the opportunity to attend the Native Americans in Philanthropy annual conference. This is a yearlong commitment for Pretty Boy that runs through Oct. 31, 2010.
The First Nations Development Institute has its main office in Longmont, Colo., and has a field office in Virginia. For more information on this organization visit www.firstnations.org.
Ali Crane, enrollment and student services director at the Idaho State University-Meridian Health Science Center, has been honored for exemplary service by the Pacific American Association of College Registrars and Admission Officers or PACRAO.
Crane was recognized at the 83rd annual PACRAO Conference in Newport Beach, Calif., in early November. PACRAO created the award this year to honor exceptional members whove belonged to the organization five years or less.
PACRAO has more than 1,500 members representing approximately 400 institutions from Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington, the territory of Guam and provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
At the Fall 2009 IAHPERD (Idaho Association of Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance) Convention in Moscow, two Idaho State University professors and one student were recognized for outstanding achievement.
Karen Appleby, PhD was recognized as the Outstanding Collegiate Educator of the Year. Appleby is an assistant professor in the Sport Science and Physical Education Department. Her academic training is in sport psychology, sport management, and cultural studies. She teaches both undergraduate and graduate courses in research and writing, sport psychology, management of athletics, and sport sociology.
Her research interests include gender issues in sport, injury in sport, and the master's athlete population. She currently serves as the Vice President of Marketing for the National Association for Girls and Women in Sport (NAGWS) and as the co-Head of the Diversity Committee for the Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP). Appleby has been published in journals and books such as Teaching of Psychology, Women Sport and Physical Journal, Eye on Psi Chi and the Encyclopedia of Extreme Sports.
Lauralee Zimmerly, a dance instructor at ISU, was awarded the Outstanding Dance Educator of the Year. In addition to instructing courses in dance technique, movement theory and dance choreography, Zimmerly is also working towards a doctoral degree in Educational Leadership at ISU. She has also been instrumental in the development of DANSON, the ISU student dance company, and I-Move, the faculty dance company.
ISU student Tymeron Turk was named the Outstanding College Student of the Year. Tymeron is currently a senior majoring in Physical Education with a Sports Management emphasis and a minor in Coaching. She has served as the President of the PE student majors club, SHEPERDs for the past two years. She plans to attend graduate school at ISU (Athletic Administration) starting in spring semester 2010.
Biological Sciences Department Chairman Terry Bowyer was elected as Director of the Pocatello Zoological Society Board.
The ISU Womens Club Annual Holiday Fair is set for Friday, Nov. 13 10 a.m. 5 pm. in the Student Union Ballroom. All proceeds benefit scholarships for ISU students.
More than 30 vendors will have art, pottery, books, outerwear, jewelry and more. Lunch is available as well.
Theatre/Dance ISU presents The Playboy of the Western World, opening Friday, Nov. 13 in the Rogers Black Box Theatre of the L.E. & Thelma E. Stephens Performing Arts Center. Shows continue Nov. 14, 16, 19, 20 and 21.
The Playboy of the Western World is an intriguing Irish comedy dealing with self and social perception. This story was written by Irish playwright John Millington Synge in 1907.
All shows start at 7:30 p.m. and tickets are available now at the Performing Arts Center box office, by phone at ext. 3595 or online at www.isu.edu/tickets or at Vickers Western Stores in Pocatello and Idaho Falls. Prices are: adults $14; children ages 6-12 $8 and ISU students with Bengal card are just $5. Discounts are given for early purchases.
While the play would be rated G or PG were it a film, it is not recommended for small children as its themes and characters are geared to older audiences.
In a recent letter to faculty, Provost Gary Olson said he hoped to clear up some misconceptions and inaccuracies circulating around campus.
Here are excerpts from the letter:
Faculty Workload Policy
First, there still seems to be some misunderstanding about the faculty workload policy. Apparently, some faculty believe or are being told that the policy was implemented in order to increase everyone's course load. This could not be further from the truth. As we increasingly become more of a doctoral research university, we will need to move away from a model where everybody has the identical course load (3/3, for example) toward a variable course load, where very research-productive faculty may have a light load (Ill or 1/2, for example), while non-research-productive faculty may have a heavier load (3/4 or even 4/4, for example).
This is how research universities generally work. Faculty who are winning major federal grants or publishing groundbreaking scholarship or creative works are afforded the time to continue to be as productive. The revised faculty workload policy attempts to facilitate this movement.
Let me give you some facts about the policy . The newly revised policy is not substantially different from the one that was first implemented in November 1993. For example, the original policy stipulated 15 workload units, as does the current version.
In 2005, the policy was revised to address concerns expressed by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities regarding workload expectations for additional faculty appointment types other than tenured and tenure-track (i.e., clinical faculty, research faculty, adjunct faculty). This revision provided clarifying changes, but the original definitions of faculty workload approved by faculty vote in 1993 were unchanged.
In November 2008, at President Vailas' direction, a revised faculty workload policy draft, which included further clarification of the expected average workload distribution patterns for faculty with various types of appointments (i.e., tenured/tenure track, clinical, research, lecturers), was forwarded to the Faculty Senate, department chairs, and faculty from the Deans' Council for review and comment. The revisions did not alter the workload expectation of 15 units of effort. The revised policy draft, however, did include more flexibility in allocation of those units of effort among the three categories of faculty work-instruction, research/scholarship, and service-to reflect the increased research focus of the institution and the increased expectation of research/scholarly productivity for the core faculty.
Specifically, the suggested (not mandated) distribution of the original was 9/3/3 (9 units for teaching and 3 each for service and teaching), while the suggested (not mandated) distribution of the revised policy was 9 units for teaching, 4 or 5 for research, and I or 2 for service. In May of 2009, the Faculty Senate voted for proposed edits to the November 2008 draft. The Senate's draft was reviewed by the Deans' Council, Provost, and President. Some of the Senate' s edits were accepted and some were not. (I'll note that shared governance means that all constituents have an opportunity to provide input, not that the proposed edits were required to be accepted.) The final draft of the Faculty Workload Policy was approved by the President, and is now the official faculty workload policy of the University. I should note, as well, that all policies are subject to change, and any faculty or senators can initiate a process to recommend changes.
The changes made to the 2005 workload policy were not substantial and in no way altered the requirement of 15 workload units of effort for all full-time faculty, regardless of type of appointments. The "average" of nine units of instruction for faculty in the aggregate remains; however, for faculty members who are actively engaged in substantial research/creative activity, additional units of effort may be allocated to this activity, with a concomitant reduction in units of effort assigned to instruction and service. This also implies, of course, that faculty who are no longer engaged in substantial research/creative activity may be assigned additional units of effort in instruction to fulfill the IS units of effort requirement.
The key Senate-proposed edits that were not accepted are the following:
... I am providing you on the Academic Affairs website a full summary of these unacceptable changes as well as a complete timeline of the faculty workload policy over its entire history.
I should point out another important fact that has gone unnoticed by some: this is an umbrella policy. It only establishes the general framework for how actual workloads get distributed. Each department has been charged with devising its own set of procedures for establishing how it will assign course load given the uniqueness of its disciplinary area. Much more important and consequential than this overarching university-wide policy is the actual set of procedures that you help devise within your department. It is these departmental procedures, articulated by the departmental faculty (and subject to approval by the dean), that actually govern how the broader university policy will be implemented for faculty in a given department or program. The suggestions for weighting and distribution in the university policy are only examples and meant to offer starting points for discussion at the department and college levels and should help to ensure some base level of consistency across departments and colleges. Again, the discipline-specific considerations articulated by the departmental faculty will govern the actual implementation of the workload policy at the departmental level.
Graduate Students and Full-Time Temporary Faculty
As you know, during the budget givebacks of last year, each department was charged with determining how it would respond to the state-mandated cuts. Many opted to return vacant faculty lines or to "nonreappoint" full-time temporary faculty (lecturers and instructors). This process (along with the nonnal process of nonreappointing that occurs each year as departments assess their priorities) resulted in 43 nonreappointments of full-time temporary faculty. These were decisions that departments and colleges made. Contrary to what you might have heard, there is no master plan of the administration to eliminate all such lines and replace them with graduate students.
It is certainly true that I have said publicly on a number of occasions that as a doctoral institution, ISU has had an unusually high proportion of full-time temporary faculty and an unusually low number of graduate assistants--especially doctoral students- but there is no grand plan to trade one for the other. While I would like to see this imbalance corrected, such decisions are generally made at the departmental level.
Program Closures
At no time has the administration mandated or devised a plan for closing academic programs.
Closing an academic program provides no short-term savings, so it is not an effective response to budget givebacks (which must be provided immediately). That being said, we have initiated discussions among chairs and deans to examine their programs and to assess whether some are performing so poorly that this might be a good time to consider closing them. In fact, the data demonstrate that a number of our programs have graduated only a handful of students over the last seven years, and some as few as zero! This process of continually examining the progress of your programs is a standard procedure in any healthy institution. Here's why. Each department must attend to its commitments before it can ever think about providing course releases for increased research or for administrative posts. That is, it has an obligation to offer its gen-ed courses (if applicable) and the courses in its majors and other programs before it can have the flexibility to do other things. If a department has created too many commitments for itself, it may find itself in the position of having no such flexibility. This is the case with many of our departments; they have created countless commitments over the years without trimming out those programs that are no longer a priority. We have asked department chairs to hold discussions with faculty to make sure a department wishes to continue with its present level of commitments or whether some strategic trimming might not be in order.
College of Engineering
Some have stated that the administration has a plan to close the College of Engineering. In fact, I was distressed to learn that certain individuals have been saying this to students. The facts are these: in last year's budget process, the Special Budget Consultation Planning Committee was concerned that the College of Engineering had no options for meeting the state-mandated reductions and recommended that the institution conduct both an external and internal review of the college. The President accepted this recommendation and directed the Office of Academic Affairs to initiate both processes. I am delighted to report that the external review is now complete. We have seen a preliminary report and are awaiting the final version. The reviewers were impressed with many aspects of the college and provided a number of recommendations for strengthening the college. Far from seeking to close the college, we are seeking to strengthen it and increase its viability, especially given the central role that energy studies plays in our strategic mission.
Looming Budget Cuts
As you know, both President Vailas and I have repeatedly stated in numerous public forums that our priorities in approaching the present and upcoming budget givebacks remain the same: to protect student enrollment and student services, to protect core faculty and programs, and to protect faculty salaries (that is, no furloughs or across-the-board salary cuts). We stand by these priorities, and we believe that barring some scenario that is much more dire than anyone expects, we are certain that we can continue moving forward with these priorities. Our strategy has been to trim administrative costs and to suggest organizational efficiencies that will result in cost savings while preserving jobs.
The Idaho State University Cosmetology program will be offering complimentary haircuts for all veterans and military personnel on Thursday, Nov.12 from 9:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Walk-in appointments will be accepted or you may schedule an appointment by contacting the Cosmetology program at ext. 2866. The Cosmetology Center is located at the ISU College of Technology, Roy F. Christensen Building.
Between the Folds, a film about finding inspiration in unexpected places, is showing at the Bengal Theater in the Pond Student Union Nov. 10, 5:30 p.m. The show is free to the public, and free popcorn and soda will be available.
Blurring the mysterious lines between art, science, sculpture and math, the film is an adventure into origami, or paper folding, featuring works of art whose emotional expressiveness and engineering complexity defy logic.
Kathy Hodges of the Idaho Humanities Council will present a history of Mexican American culture in Idaho Thursday, Nov. 12, noon, in the Wood River room at the Pond Student Union.
The lecture, Promoting Technology and Engineering Education in Developing Countries, scheduled for Friday, Nov. 13, has been cancelled. The lecture was part of the ISU Reading Project lecture series.
The Idaho State University Janet C. Anderson Gender Resource Center, The Cultural Affairs Council, ISU Psychology Department, Genesis Project and the Idaho Humanities Council announce a film screening and community discussion with filmmaker, Gwen Haworth. Haworth is a transgender filmmaker, editor, and instructor. The screening of her award winning film, "She's A Boy I Knew" begins at 6 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 12 in the College of Education auditorium.
The auto-ethnography is not only an exploration into the filmmaker's process of transition from biological male to female, from Steven to Gwen, but also an emotionally charged account of the individual experiences, struggles, and stakes that her two sisters, mother, father, best friend and wife brought to Gwen's transition. Under Haworth's sensitive eye, each stepping stone in the process of transitioning becomes an opportunity to explore her community's and our own underlying assumptions about gender and sexuality.
The film will be followed by a discussion with the filmmaker about trans representation in cinema. For more information, or to view a trailer of the film please visit: http://www.artflick.com/.
ISU faculty, students and Idaho health care partners are invited to Research Day at the Kasiska College of Health Professions scheduled for April 9. The theme is Communities and KCHP: Advancing Idaho Health Care Together. Abstract submissions will be accepted soon.

"Everyone loves the Twilight track. We work really well together, we've
found we really do connect in that way. It will be something a bit more
electronic, it won't be like my music."
Ellie also opened up about their split for the first time: "It's
literally because we didn't see each other enough.
"It's really sad. He's one of my best mates it's a shame.
"He is a really beautiful person, he's the nicest human being.
"He's very kind and we connect. He's a really wonderful person. It's good

I finally finished my Vikings vignette. This is my second vignette. I tried hard to emulate the stormy sea effect. I used a modelling technique I learned from one of dreamspiritwargaming's videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFSMpb6QZ_w&feature=relmfu In this video Milos shows how to make snow effects using white glue, white paint and baking soda. I used this technique to create water foam. The base is dental plaster and DAS modelling clay. I modelled the waves with these and than used the baking soda mix to create the foam. After that I painted the waves with a "crystal gel" material that I bought from the hobby section of my local art store. It's a water based product used to create textured glass effects. It dries clear and gloss. And finally I drybrushed white. Hope you like the final result :)
And a little teaser of my next project: a kinght from Italeri's English Knights and Archers set. I don't know if he is "historically accurate". I painted him more like a "generic" men-at-arms for my medieval fantasy project. Hope to paint the rest of the gang very soon :)

It's hard some days to figure out what to make for dinner! Can I get an Amen!?
I've talked about this year I've started using a meal planner, and it's helped a ton. It at least helps me to know in advance what dinner will be that night (instead of wandering around the kitchen at 4PM trying to decided what to make). It has also helped in not wasting groceries which has been nice because I'll check the calendar and make my grocery list based on the lunches and dinners planned for the next week. Every Saturday I have a "NEW RECIPE" night. Pinterest and all the delicious recipes from amazing blog buddies help with that night. There are seriously so many options, which means I am always trying something out each week, and I LOVE finding new favorites!! This next recipes is one of those…
It comes from Love, Pomegranate House. If you haven't been to Talitha's site before, you MUST check it out. So many great creations on there!! My kids love chicken but are sometimes picky when chicken is mixed into things (ridiculous, I know) so I thought I would make this Easy Fettuccine Alfredo without the chicken. The kids loved it (and so did the hubby and I!) It's very simple and will definitely be added to the meal calendar on Italian night (every other Thursday). 🙂
Doesn't it look delicious?! I've always been a HUGE fan of Fettuccine Alfredo so I knew I'd like it. If you love pasta and Alfredo you'll definitely like it too!
- 1 lb. fettuccine pasta
- 2 TB butter
- 2 tsp. minced garlic
- 1 pint heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ tsp. garlic pepper
- Cook noodles as directed on package.
- While noodles are cooking, add 2 TB butter to a pan and let melt. Add minced garlic and saute for 1-2 minutes.
- Add whipping cream and bring to a simmer. Add 1 cup Parmesan Cheese and mix well. (Sauce will thicken up)
- Add pasta and mix until covered. Top with garlic pepper (salt if needed) and more Parmesan Cheese.
Wishing I had a big bowl of this right now with some delicious Bread sticks! Mmmmm!
To make this a full on meal I'd also add:
Such a great meal!!

As Michael Owen swooped over Dubai in a helicopter to promote property in the region, he may have seen Steven Gerrard Tower and the half-built Boris Becker Business Tower below. He may have just made out the luxury villa that David Beckham still owns on the huge Palm Jumeirah development reclaimed from the Gulf.
Now the future of many of those developments named after, and actively promoted by sports stars, and Dubai's continued ability to invest in ever more ambitious venues to attract global sporting events are in doubt in the wake of Dubai World's request for a six-month repayment moratorium on $60bn of its $80bn debt.
"I chose to invest in Dubai because I believe there is huge investment potential in Dubai," claimed Owen in the glossy promotional video for the First Group, one of a number of investment companies that sell the dream of luxurious living in the manmade oasis of Dubai. "United Arab Emirates is certainly one of the world's top property hotspots."
The Manchester United striker has long counted Dubai among his favourite holiday destinations. But when he hangs up his boots, he is unlikely to embark on a second career as a financial adviser - Owen was also an ambassador for Allen Stanford's bank and had money invested with it when the flamboyant Texan was arrested for fraud earlier this year.
Owen is just one of a string of global sports stars, including Nikki Lauda and Michael Schumacher, and sporting events, from the long-running Dubai Rugby Sevens to more recent forays into golf with the Dubai World Championship and tennis with the Barclays Dubai Championship, to have been used by the emirate as a shortcut to global exposure.
In almost all cases, the stars involved have been sold property at knockdown prices and been paid handsome retainers in return for the use of their names.
Golf courses in the region bear the names of Ernie Els and Tiger Woods. A spectacular shot of Andre Agassi playing Roger Federer on the roof of a skyscraping Dubai hotel made the front pages of newspapers around the world.
Tim Crow, chief executive of Synergy sponsorship consultancy, said: "It's cost them a lot of money but as a strategy you'd have to say it's been incredibly successful. But we have reached a point where things are obviously going to change."
Just this year, the world class 25,000-capacity Dubai Sports City cricket stadium was opened with great fanfare, the latest stage in a drive to attract the world's best cricket teams to the region.
The sport's world governing body, the ICC, was persuaded to move there from the historic environs of Lord's in 2005 by the favourable tax rates on offer, in a move that at the time seemed to embody the shifting sands of the global sports world.
It was envisaged as the first of four stadiums to be completed as part of the wider Dubai Sports City development, with a 60,000-capacity football stadium, a 5,000-capacity hockey ground and an indoor arena for 10,000 to follow.
"What they've done in sport has been fantastic for the region. They always got the best people there and they've sold lots of property off the back of it. The model they have used of attracting people to the region via their sporting events has worked," said Andrew Dwyer, managing director of sports agency BrandRapport. "The International Cricket Council are based there. But other sporting bodies might think twice now."
Like many before them the development companies, including the now embattled government-funded Nakheel property group, recognised that celebrities and sports stars were a shortcut to global recognition as it sought to attract global investors for grand building projects and turbo-charge its transformation into a tourism and business hotspot.
German company ACI Real Estate is building a vast business park just one of the bewildering array of developments that were already starting to spark questions about their sustainability even before the global economic slump, that is intended to house towers named after Becker, Lauda and Schumacher. Those towers are now behind schedule and a beach resort and tennis academy in Ras al Khaimah named after Becker is on hold. Across Dubai, major projects are in stasis. There are fears that the ambitious Palm development and its neighbouring man-made islands will never be finished, leaving behind a building site rather than a slice of paradise. More than 400 projects worth more than $300bn are said to have been cancelled or shut down.
Dubai World, the government-owned conglomerate that sparked panic in the global markets by asking for a repayment holiday, owns Nakheel, the company behind the Palm Islands and their even more ambitious cousins, Earth and Universe. Nakheel made no secret of its focus on the luxury end of the business and honed in on sports stars as a means of marketing them. On their way to the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea, the entire England football squad stopped off and Beckham and others including Kieron Dyer and Joe Cole signed up for apartments at discounted rates on the Palm, constructed from 94m cubic metres of sand that doubled the length of Dubai's coastline to 84 miles.
Andrew Flintoff recently spent time there recuperating from injury. Like Owen and golfer Sam Torrance, he also had a contract to act as a First Group ambassador but his agent said yesterday that the agreement had "come to a natural end". Beckham is understood to still own his villa, holding on to it as an investment.
Nakheel's woes could also impact on the newest addition to golf's calendar. Much speculation surrounded whether the Dubai World Championship, the new end of season finale for golf's European Tour would take place at all. In the event, Lee Westwood this month picked up £1.5m in prize money after winning both the tournament and the season-long Road to Dubai. The ragged landscaping around the Earth course and the unfinished clubhouse betrayed the touch and go nature of the enterprise.
Earlier this year Nakheel took over Leisurecorp, the development company which signed the original five-year contract to sponsor the European Tour, valued at around $50m a year. The demise of Leisurecorp ultimately led to a renegotiation of the deal with European Tour, with prize money reduced by 25%.
Nakheel's current woes will lead to inevitable questions about the final four years of a deal that seems to encapsulate the boom and bust of Dubai's relationship with sport.

Tosco to reopen Avon refinery in about 8 weeks
Published 4:00 am, Wednesday, April 28, 1999
The troubled Tosco Avon refinery will reopen in about eight weeks, the company's president announced.
Dwight Wiggins, president of Tosco Refinery Co., made the announcement Tuesday afternoon while meeting with employees of the Martinez plant, adding that they would receive pay in the interim.
Wiggins' announcement drew sustained applause.
The future of the Tosco oil refinery, including concerns about the Avon plant's safety, were the main topic of a packed meeting Tuesday of the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors. The meeting drew a standing-room-only crowd that overflowed into the lobby.
In February, a flash fire killed four workers and badly injured a fifth. The plant has been shut down since mid-March. Tosco has been giving full-time safety training classes to its 700 employees, and has pledged to continue paying the workers.
Tosco's plans to open came with a pledge to adopt recommendations from a highly critical report of Arthur D. Little, an independent consulting firm hired by the county to evaluate the refinery's safety practices.

During a public comment period, numerous Tosco employees rose to express confidence in the plant. "I think it's a safe company to work for," said one, Benson Shiner. "The environment I work in, as far as everybody's attitude, has changed 360 degrees in the last six weeks."
Employees have spent that time in intensive safety training programs, they said, and have noticed a new, friendlier relationship between management and labor.
Among the findings from the $100,000 report:
*Management's commitment to safety is lacking.
*Communications up and down the ranks regarding safety are blocked.
*There is no review of how organizational changes already made would effect safety.
*The refinery fails to take full advantage of lessons learned from previous plant accidents.
*There is a feeling among employees that senior management is unconcerned with safety.
Wiggins also promised "a new cooperative spirit between labor and management."
Poor relations between managers and workers at the plant had been cited as one of the safety concerns in the Little report.
In full-page ads in Contra Costa newspapers Sunday and Monday, Tosco pledged that safety would be a top priority. The ad features a photograph of a worker reading a safety manual. His hard hat has a sticker with the Tosco logo and the message: "There's always time to work safely."
"We will not reopen the refinery until we are certain the safety of our 700 employees and the peace of mind of their families are not at risk . . ." the ad said. "Reinforcing a safety-first culture at the Avon refinery is and will be our top priority."
Supervisors John Gioia and Gail Uilkima said that they believed Tosco officials were sincere in their stated renewed commitment to safety, and that they hoped Tosco would reopen.
The midsized refinery is "very important to our economic base," Uilkima said. "And 700 jobs are at stake."
But Supervisor Donna Gerber was unimpressed with the newspaper ad and Tosco efforts so far.
"I wish they'd spend their energy in dealing with their internal problems, and less time and energy in trying to change public opinion," she said. "That seems so superficial. This is serious stuff. People have died.
"It's going to take much more than taking out ads and telling the public that all they needed is a few safety classes."
What has to change, said Gerber, is that workers and managers must truly believe that safety comes before profit, and that the priority of safety becomes an embedded philosophy of the workplace. <

3DS XL Circle Pad Pro Unveiled
The 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro has some noticeable change in its design. It's easy to spot the curvy edge on the right, probably to help players get a better grip.
The 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro also caters to the XL's new layout as can be seen on the image above. The headphone jack can be inserted on the left-most part of the device whereas the old one is in the center. It's probably a little too early to tell but it looks more natural than the old one.
The old Circle Pad Pro was priced around $20. Hopefully, the new device will come out for only a few dollars more or at the same price.

Everything you've heard is true. Classified as "one of the creepiest films since The Exorcist", and as "scary as hell," The Blair Witch Project was hyped to be one of the scariest films of the 90's. Prior to its cinema release in the United States, The Blair Witch Project website was launched and created the hype for this creepy film. The website, still online today, offers many insights into the Blair Witch, and includes a detailed description of the rich mythology surrounding her. It was one of the most anticipated theatrical releases in the US, and scared millions of American audiences.
The theatrical release in Australia in early December 1999 scared "the believers," bored the "non-believers" and made anybody prone to motion-sickness nauseous. The film wasn't as big as it was hyped up to be, with many newspaper articles being published about the quality of the filming. The film was made on handheld cameras, and the film was made without tripods or camera support - what do these people expect? - a smooth, bump-free film? Rated MA for violence, language and a horror theme, the theatrical release did succeed, even against the harsh critics' reviews.
While not being the most technically advanced or boasting the best art direction, this film still does manage to scare audiences. If you go into watching this film for the first time thinking that it is real, it will scare the pants off of you. Watching this film on DVD is better than the cinema, as the camera shake effect has been lessened due to a smaller screen.
The Blair Witch Project follows three student filmmakers who are making a documentary on the local myth about the Blair Witch into the woods near Burkitsville in Maryland. But then, after getting lost, the hunter becomes the hunted. Alone in the cold, being hunted by mysterious noises and finding bizarre trinkets around their tent starts to set them off, but little do they know that this myth may be more than it's said to be. The film shouldn't need any more explanation - and can't have too much more without giving it all away. So turn off the lights, turn up the sound, cuddle up with someone and learn the secrets of the Blair Witch.
The video is in the original Australian theatrical format of 4:3, or 1.33:1. This fullscreen version is the theatrical release, but differs from the American DVD release which is 16x9 enhanced and in widescreen. By doing this, the American DVD has lost the top and bottom of the picture. For once the full screen image shows the complete picture!
This is an interesting video transfer to try to analyse, as the actual master film shot isnt of a high standard to start off with. The scores given for this title have all been given taking away the fact that it was shot on handheld cameras that always produce a lot of grain. That is just the way the film is and hasnt influenced the scores. But saying that, especially on the CP footage there is a large amount of grain, but nothing distracting as all of the grain adds to the authenticity of the footage and the atmosphere created by it.
There is some minor aliasing during some of the opening scenes, but this can always be expected when using a small handheld camera. On the CP footage, there are some minor artefacts, but they too add to the atmosphere of the film. There are a lot of solid black colours, and many different shades of grey used in the colour palette, especially during the night scenes. These all come up superbly, with solid definition and no MPEG artefacts.
This is a dual layer disc with the layer change occurring at 74:17, which is really bizarre as this is in the middle of the end credits. Surely there should have been enough room to store an extra minute of video?
There are two audio tracks on this disc a directors commentary and English 2.0 Stereo, which is Surround encoded. This means that the same audio signal is sent out to all of the speakers to surround the audience to increase the atmosphere. The quality of the audio is superb, also given that the master isnt of a high standard. However saying that, the audio does peak and distort many times throughout the film. But this can be expected, and given the quality of the master, the audio transfer is very nice, with the surround aspect just adding intensity to the film.
This disc does offer a great feast of extra features, most of them of an incredibly high quality.
Audio Features - this page just shows the available audio features of the disc, including the option of the Directors Commentary featuring Robbie Cowie, Daniel Myrick, Eduardo Sanchez (II), Gregg Hale and Michael Monello. This group of people includes the producers, writers and directors of the film, and all get along really well. The commentary itself is quite interesting to listen to, and quite humorous as well. It does offer interesting trivia about how things were shot and done, and is really informative on top of the notes also included on the disc.
Curse of the Blair Witch - this is the 50 minute documentary that was on television in Australia (and I presume America too) prior to the release of The Blair Witch Project in the cinemas. It focuses on the mythology surrounding the Blair Witch, and is really creepy to watch. This is one feature that can be watched before the film without anything being given away.
Newly Discovered Footage - this is a 5:10 long clip of the three characters inside the tent discussing the Blair Witch. Fairly boring, and it can be seen why it was cut from the film. But where are the deleted scenes that are always mentioned in the commentary?
The Blair Witch Legacy - This is a time line on 19 pages, each with background music, that tells the story and evolution of the Blair Witch mythology. This accompanies the Curse Of The Blair Witch documentary really well, as it highlights the major events in the Blair Witch myth.
Biographies - These are simple, uninformative and brief biographies on the main characters and the crew.
Notes - These are good notes to read, and are a good accompaniment to the commentary.
Easter Eggs - There is an Easter egg on this disc, but check out the Easter Eggs page to find out the details, rather than spoiling it for others here.
The menus are very slickly made, especially the main menu, and are animated with music. The Extra Features page is incredibly hard to navigate through as the options keep appearing and disappearing. The scene selections page is animated too, but doesnt show animations from the film, rather just a list of the chapter names in the form of Day 1, Night 1, etc...
Overall, this is a very nice disc, and given the quality of the original footage, a superb transfer to DVD. The extra features compliment the film as well, and add another level of eeriness to the mood of the film. The film itself can be scary depending on how sceptical you are. Whilst it may not be as classic as Jaws or The Exorcist, it does stand out as one of the better horror movies to emerge from America in the last few years. If you are a fan, it is a must-have disc, if you havent seen it then at least hire it to find out what youre missing out on.
One Perfect Day"One Perfect Day leaps off the screen with vibrancy, life and emotion, all wrapped up with a slick soundtrack and effervescent editing..."

In the first of an occasional series of features JOHN GEORGE talks to the characters of grassroots cycling
RISING stars Abby Mae Parkinson and Amira Mellor bagged podium places at the National Cyclos-Cross Trophy event.
Parkinson (RST) and Mellor (Holme Valley Wheelers) took second and third places, respectively, in the girls Youth category in the meeting held in Southampton.
Parkinson got off to an excellent start and soon established a significant lead, but teammate Grace Garner stayed with her throughout and managed to take the win with a very strong last lap.
With a fine display of intelligent and determined riding Mellor kept the pressure on the rest of the field to take a very well deserved third.
In the Women's category Louise Robinson (Isla Bikes) turned in yet another powerful performance to take the win and maintain her domination of the series as she held off a very strong challenge from her rival Adela Carter (Hope Factory Racing).
In the Junior category, Louise's nephew Jake Womersley produced arguably the performance of the meeting in chasing down Jelle Vanden Dries (BKCP Enertherm).
Womersley proved to be the strongest challenger to the Belgian as the race went into the final lap, but was beaten by the smallest of margins at the line.
Kirklees Cycling Academy rider Fin Cooper secured his second win in as many weeks in the Under 12's category in the Norton Trophy Cyclo-Cross Races at Graves Park in Sheffield.
Cooper rode strongly throughout the race to take the win from clubmates Henry Hollyman in second and James Ince in fourth, while Huddersfield RC rider Tom Whitworth finished fifth.
Holme Valley Wheelers Frances Hodgson rode very strongly to finish second in the Under 10s girls category, while her brother Ben secured a deserved second place in the Under 8s boys and younger sister Victoria (aged 6) rode well in the Under 8 girls.
Star Wheelers Alex Bailey was second in the Under 10s boys race, with clubmates Luca Longo and Dylan Boyes clinching fourth and fifth respectively, and Ella Hampson took third in the Under 10s girls.
In the Under 14 boys category Harry Hardcastle (Kirklees Cycling Academy) found the technical course much to his liking and finished second, while Holme Valley Wheeler Joe Williams put in a fine performance to clinch fourth Under 16 boy.
Honley rider John Hick produced another gutsy ride to take fourth place in the Senior, Vets, Women and Junior race, and Huddersfield RC rider Andy Whitworth had a strong race to finish 17th, closely followed by club mate David Beachill.Š
Huddersfield Star Wheeler Ivan Boyes also put in a strong performance to finish 24th.
Holme Valley Wheelers' Go Ride training will be staged on Saturday, Wooldale Rec (9am) and all junior members present and new. See www.holmevalleywheelers.org.uk for more details.

Cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis) are a critically important nonhuman primate in biomedical research, used in large numbers by investigators in pharmacology, breast, uterine and other cancers, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other fields. Cynomolgus macaques are closely related to rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta). While clearly distinct in body size (cynomolgus macaques are smaller), physiology, and susceptibility to infectious diseases, these two species can form reproductively viable hybrids in the wild.
Because they are relatively small in comparison to other Old World monkey laboratory species, cynomolgus macaques have been widely used in drug development, drug testing, and toxicology. They also show a valuable pattern of lipoprotein and other cardiovascular responses to dietary cholesterol, dietary fat, and other risk factors. This species is highly responsive to stress, and thus has frequently been used to test interactions between stress and other cardiovascular risk factors. Diabetes is also characteristic of a significant fraction of cynomolgus monkeys, and this has been exploited by numerous investigators. Estrogen physiology, the effects of psychosocial stress on reproductive function, and the interactions of estrogens with dietary and other risk factors for disease have all been studied in this species. Finally, cynomolgus macaques have received significant attention as models for drug abuse, alcohol abuse, depression, and other psychiatric/psychological disorders.
The cynomolgus, or crab-eating macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is native to Southeast Asia. They are widely distributed in Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. They inhabit tropical forests, but are quite tolerant of captive housing and diets. There are several major breeding colonies in the U.S., but large numbers of these animals can be imported from Indonesia and other sources, making them readily available to laboratories at much lower cost than rhesus monkeys.
The impact of whole-genome sequencing of the cynomolgus macaque is significant. Accurate information about gene content and the specific sequences for cynomolgus genes would improve opportunities for studies of pharmacology and pharmacogenomics, responses to infectious disease, and metabolic disorders such as diabetes and osteoporosis. While cynomolgus macaques are closely related to rhesus, differences in gene number and sequences mean that quantitative studies of gene expression may benefit from species-specific genomic data. Given their small size, lower cost, and more convenient handling, use of this species would likely increase, if sophisticated analyses and tools based on state-of-the-art genomic data were available. Expansion of the diversity of primate species used for biomedical research is a goal within the NIH, given the high cost of overdependence on rhesus macaques.
Genetic, morphological, and physiological differences among populations of cynomolgus macaques are significant, and becoming well-known. This species is well-suited to detailed studies of genomic variation, the phenotypic consequences of genetic variation, and the consequences of selection on the primate genome. While closely related to the rhesus macaque, there are biologically meaningful differences in physiology, especially susceptibility to infectious disease. Therefore, detailed comparison of these two species of macaques at the physiological, cellular, and genomic levels would provide insight into both mechanisms of disease and primate responses to selection and the neutral forces of evolution.

Former WWE Diva Gearing Up for Return?July 21, 2013
Is one former Diva gearing up for a return to WWE?
Veteran women's wrestler Lisa Marie Varon was surprisingly released from TNA last week. The release of Varon, who went by the name "Tara" for her stint with America's No. 2 wrestling promotion, was attributed to budget issues, per PWI via WrestlingInc.
Varon more famously worked for WWE between 2000 and 2009. As the rage-prone, emotionally unstable "Victoria," Varon become one of the most well-known Divas on the roster. It helped that she was a great wrestler too: The Victoria/Trish Stratus feud in 2002 and 2003 churned out some of the company's best women's matches ever.
Now that Varon is a free agent, is a WWE return on the table?
Well, interestingly, the former WWE Women's champion has been hinting frequently on her Twitter account over the past week that she is in the gym training for some sort of comeback. This has, unsurprisingly, led to speculation from sites like Diva-Dirt that she's gearing up for WWE return.
When discussing Varon's TNA release, I observed that the wrestler may now be too old (she's 42) for the youth-obsessed WWE to be interested in her again. Most of the current Divas are in their 20s or are just turning 30 with only Tamina Snuka (35) and Layla El (36) being the exceptions.
However, it's possible the division is in such a dire state that WWE will overlook this and sign her to a new deal. Maybe even as a trainer for its new developmental facility in Orlando.
