Why did you apply to be a Skylights Sideline Shooter? I applied to be a Skylights Sideline Shooter because I love video production. Filming and editing allow me to express my creative and artistic side and show people my passion for video. When I heard about the opportunity to work for WPXI I immediately decided that this job would be perfect for me.

What do you do in your spare time? I do a lot of extra-curricular activities in school. I am President of FBLA, Senior Class Vice President, and a member of the Varsity Swim team. I am also a member of clubs such as Student Council, Interact, DECA, and National Honor Society. When I am not doing school activities I enjoy volunteering and doing community service work. I also currently have two jobs which I enjoy very much.

What do you plan to do after high school? I plan to attend a 4 year college to study either business or medicine.

Voters To Decide Pollock/Mobridge Consolidation

It's up to voters in Pollock to decide whether its school should consolidate with Mobridge. If approved, the Pollock school building would keep its K-12 students the first year. After that, the school would stay open for elementary school students as there’s six of them. The older students would go to Mobridge. The Pollock School District has had to be efficient over the years. "I teach everything from normal art classes to junior high exploratory to video editing, desktop publishing, computer applications and supervised distance learning classes," Waynette Geigle said. So in her 16 years of teaching in Pollock, Geigle has seen many students come through her class year after year, every year, K-12. "I know if they have reading problems or certain educational challenges and so I can devise my teaching to meet those needs," Geigle said. But now that total enrolment numbers have dropped to almost 50, the money coming in isn't enough to keep up. "As far as a budget is concerned for next year, we don't feel we can meet a budget so we couldn't operate on our own for another year," school CEO Wayne Hanson said. So, student now have to wait for voters to decide where they'll go to school and their teachers will work out their futures after that. "It kind of depends what that teaching assignment would be but I would like to, yes, continue teaching in the area," Geigle said. The one thing known for certain: the current Pollock school district won't be around much longer, efficient or not. People will vote on the issue February 26.

The counterfeiters: Inside the world of art forgery

Scotland Yard, in turn, revealed that the "everyman" offering him items for sale was a suspect in one of the biggest and longest-running art-forgery cases in history. His name was Sean Greenhalgh, and along with his 84-year-old father, George, and his mother, Olive, 83, he was suspected of having spent almost two decades creating fake paintings, sculptures and artefacts in a council house garden shed.

At a subsequent trial, it emerged that the Greenhalghes, who became known as the Bolton Forgers, had copied works by LS Lowry, Paul Gauguin and Barbara Hepworth. Among their victims had been Bolton Museum, which paid 440,000 for one of their phoney Egyptian statues (its experts believed the object dated from 1350BC). All three admitted to defrauding art institutions between 1989 and 2006, and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to conceal and transfer 410,392.

Resistance 2 will feature a 60 player online mode, which I can imagine will be insane. If Resistance 2 expands on the same gameplay and amazing storyline the first Resistance left off on, Resistance 2 will no doubt be one of the best games of the year.

Gears of War 2 - It's already time for a sequel of this game? I'm still replaying the first one!!! Gears of War was easily one of the most spectacular games ever created, and Gears 2 promises to deliver even more punch. Cliffy B (he gets on my nerves, but he made a heck of a game) has said that Gears 2 will have much more storyline than the first one did, and that's about the only thing the first game lacked. If we see an even more ridiculous gun than the Chainsaw Lancer in the first game, I wouldnt be surprized. Only thing I'm concerned about with this game is how hard my jaw will hit the floor when I play it.
