FIC: Breathing Room
Jul. 12th, 2009 at 1:37 AM
Title: Breathing Room
Characters/Pairings: Dan/Rorschach.
Summary: Some patrols go badly; then there are patrols like these.
Rating/Warnings: PG... 13? Gratuitous nudity, but nothing sexual.
Notes: Kinkmeme fill, prompt was for Rorschach having a panic attack/hyperventilating and Dan needing to talk him down. He's a pretty tough nut to crack so I had to pull out the big guns on this one, and bring them all to bear at once. Pardon the contrivances, CHEAP PLOT DEVICE IS CHEAP.
"Hey, hey, it's all right," he's saying, over and over again, a mantra of reassurance that isn't quite cutting through the panic, and the Owlship's decking is hard and abrasive under his knees. He's naked, and Rorschach is naked too, with all of its implications of vulnerability and throat-baring submission, and Dan's acutely aware of that fact because god, it's only making this worse – but he knows that if he lets go of Rorschach's face for even a second to reach for something to cover them with, he'll only slip further under.
It really isn't what it looks like – it isn't. The hideout they'd been tipped off to tonight had been rigged against them, and the acid released from a reservoir somewhere far above them had started eating through their costumes like hungry, licking flames the moment it had hit. It was a gruesome welcome; they both know perfectly well how a strong enough acid bath is its own cleanup, no bodies to dispose of, and the Owlsuit's synthetics had held up better than Rorschach's cotton and leather but they'd both had to shed layers as they ran for the ship, garments left dissolving into green-black puddles on the asphalt, a breadcrumb trail of stinking, bubbling defeat.
It wasn't surprising that the latex had held the longest, but by the time they'd gotten into Archie the top layer had burst, bleeding black and white, boiling and spitting in reaction – and Dan hadn't even asked, hadn't allowed for an argument, watching the caustic substance burrowing in towards his partner's face, his eyes. It'd had to come off. Rorschach had stumbled bodily against him, half fighting him and half just falling, fingers clawing at the remains of the mask – then had gone suddenly still, feeling with damning acuity all the places their bodies were touching, nothing more protective between them than a fine sheen of sweat, a bit of ash, a bit of blood. He hadn't breathed at all, for a good long moment.
They're on the floor now, hands on his face the only contact, and Rorschach is heaving gulping breaths, short and stilted, nowhere near deep enough; his lips are starting to turn vaguely blue. Dan knows what this is, recognizes the signs, remembers from his own awkward teenage years what an anxiety attack feels like - but he isn't sure how much of it is losing the mask and how much of it is their proximity, the smell of sweat and panic thick in the enclosed space. It's still dark because he hasn't had time to restart the electrics, and the only light is what diffracts through the Owlship's wide eyes, outlining everything in a delicate glow. There's so much skin and so many unavoidable implications and he knows he might be making it worse when he slides his hands down to Rorschach's throat, rubbing in at a slower pace than his wild, racing breath, encouraging him to match it.
"Come on, just breathe, this is okay, we're okay."
Under his fingers, throat muscles clench convulsively, a half-second from closing his airway entirely; the sharp, desperate puffs of breath are louder than they should be in the quiet of the shut-down ship. "Not-" he manages to choke out, and his hands are starting to shake and slacken where they're wrapped around Dan's wrists, an oxygen-starved grey-out draining the rest of the color from his face. "Like this. Touching. I – nnk. Shouldn't see me." A sound like he's choking, and Dan tips his chin back with both thumbs, trying to keep his throat open. "...Shouldn't see you."
"It's fine," Dan soothes, words out immediately because for all the broken, choppy attempts at communication, he does understand. "I don't mind, really, and it's not like we had a choice anyway." He shifts his weight to sit on the deck, massaging the rhythm of breath into the knotted and tense muscles under his hands – smoothing down over the raised ridge of collarbone to urge the air deeper. "Every night we go out, you trust me to have your back, right? To not let you down, or hurt you, or anything like that?"
There's no answer through the broken pattern of air, but he isn't saying no, isn't shaking his head in denial, isn't going on about how he doesn't trust anyone and that no one is worthy of trust; that's as good as an affirmative.
"Then it's okay, to be here like this. Because we're partners, we trust each other." The argument is simple, almost childlike, but not much else is going to get through right now; Dan knows that from experience. Small words, straightforward concepts, metered out carefully; a fragile length of line, reeled in an inch at a time.
He turns his head slightly, tracking the spill of streetlight through the round windows; the strange shapes it casts on the floor, and the way the amber glow of it is outlining Rorschach's entirely flawed and unfamiliar human shape in hard lines of yellow-gold and red, an impressionistic abstract of something warpainted and primitive and carnal, heaving breathlessly in the darkness. He knows he must look the same; lets out his own shuddering exhale. "...god. Okay. We'll just get back to the Nest, and get some spare things, and..."
The panic isn't dissipating; breath is there, is flowing, but is still too harsh, too fast, and when those hands finally slip free of his wrists, Dan can feel a sympathetic twinge of numbness in his own, of the sharp pins and needles of nerves drowning in deoxygenated blood. The words aren't working.
...standing at the lip of a cliff is only terrifying as long as you stay on the edge; step back or jump, doesn't matter which, and the fear transmutes into something else, something manageable. The teetering and waiting and feeling gravity tug and tug – that's the only part that makes the heart beat in the throat like a swarm of metal-winged butterflies, stirring terror, fight or flight, breath dragged out clawing and dangerous...
And the words aren't working.
His hands find easy purchase around Rorschach's back, not flinching away when his ribcage shudders and bucks under the contact. Dan pulls him in until they are flush skin-to-skin and that skittering, panicked breath is hitting his ear, is riding against his chest and under his arms. "It's okay," he mumbles, over and over again, "We're fine, this is fine, this is okay," but he doubts Rorschach's even hearing him; he's burying his nose into the crook of Dan's shoulder, blinding his eyes and hiding his face all at once –
(see no evil, show no evil)
-and maybe there's something else here, fueling the panic. Something beyond simple vulnerability and a identity violently stripped away and eyes and hands going beyond the bounds of propriety – and the smell of both of their costumes burning, evoking uglier sense-memories of worse nights, worse patrols. Something that hums restlessly between skin and skin and drives Rorschach to clutch fumblingly at flesh he should have no desire to touch, slick with cold sweat and fear. Maybe. But if there is, this is not the time to address it; and under the solid weight of unmoving hands, restraining him in place, breath slows and evens out and deepens.
They stay as they are for a few minutes, not so much molded as jammed together like mismatched jigsaw edges, elbows and knees refusing to line up, before Rorschach finally speaks, a dull vibrato against the skin of Dan's throat.
"...need clothes, Daniel. Too early in the night to stop patrolling."
And Dan laughs, and it rumbles through his chest and through Rorschach's too, and the situation is still insane – they're naked and unmasked and bleeding and acid-burned in patches and a long ways from safe ground, and they've just blown a bust and if any of this gets back to the criminal underworld it'll take weeks to put the fear back in them where it belongs – but it's suddenly a bearable insanity, with enough breathing room to regain their bearings; something they can walk away from, a new and tenuous understanding unspooling between them in the quiet.

I always get really giddy when I see you posting, because that means I can finally add your fics to my memories. This one gets an instant add, because the panic is written so well, and I love how Daniel keeps emphasizing how this isn't sexual, this isn't wrong, this is just them accidentally ending up naked together and needing to cuddle naked to feel better, there is nothing wrong here. Also, the use of the word unspooling makes me oddly pleased.
I am glad my brain's random word generator is pleasing!
But yeah, that was so much the point of this: that this crazy kind of shit can happen without it being sexual, without it leading to Convenient Porn, even if the undercurrent is there. That sometimes crazy shit is just crazy shit. XD
midnite_vision
Even if it is a cheap plot device, I think you made it work here. And I had to chuckle at the fact that the first thing Rorschach says when he calms down is that they need to go on patrol again. Oh, Rorschach...
Yeah, I just needed something that would strip away all sense of being safe, and that included the mask, so it had to be something that no amount of 'it's a line you just don't cross' would keep Dan from pulling it off of him. I'm glad you think it worked ok.
Yes, Ror, go get into some baggy Dan!pants and continue terrorizing the underworld like that. See how well that works.
por_queeee
Holy shit, I'M ALWAYS SO HAPPY WHEN YOU POST FIC! This one in particular is really... I don't know, just fantastic. I loved the fact that they're holding each other, both naked and yet you still get across how innocent it really is, and that Rorschach was reluctant to take off his mask despite the fact acid was burning through it.
Yeah, the innocence of it was a really important point, even if there ARE slashy undertones that I'm sure they're both aware of; that hurt, in the middle of patrol, stripped of all of their gear and masks and with Ror having a panic attack over all of the aforementioned goodness, it was in no way the time to even think about anything on that level.
__perplexity__
Uck, your descriptions are wonderful. I have to be rubbish and use your own words above and say how I LOVE the lack of convenient porn, love it love it LOVE it.
Sorry I can't be more constructive, but it's a really good piece. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much :D See, I never can tell! some people only want porn, some people prefer the lack of it; I just try to be as true to the characters and situations as I can, and whatever makes sense, happens.
jackiemei
I enjoyed this piece very much. I love calm gentle Dan, its always the way I imagine him as part of that duo. I liked the bit about the mask being the last thing to come off, and how its down to the point of threatening to burn his eyes out before it does, very symbolic and powerful.
Thank you, I'm glad you picked up on that. And I agree about Dan - I'm not sure where all of the aggressive, borderline nasty Dan comes from in the fandom; he's such a sweet, sweet guy.
cosmonautsister
That was brilliant, menacing and poetic... and I couldn't help but laugh at the image of Daniel and Rorschach running around naked.
They were very much not finding it funny at the time XD Thank you so much!
**meep** I love it. God, acid, that's scary. D: I know how Dan feels, my cousin has panic attacks like this, and really the best thing you can do is hold him until he starts breathing normally. Good job, Dan!
Dan strikes me as the type to have had social anxiety issues as a kid; quiet, extremely smart, with a somewhat sheltered, overbearing family life, and not a lot of peers to relate to. So he knows what's up with panic attacks, yes.

Poor Ror! I SO know what it's like to ahve a panic attack. ):
Really the only thing you can do to make it go away is be held and be assured until it goes away. ):
This was very cute and sweet, and like other commenter's, I'm glad it didn't turn into porn. mainly cause, I don't see Dan as a person to really initiate something like that. Hell he has to have the chick initiate it most of the time. xD
So yeah, plus as closet perv-y as Dan is I don't think he'd ever take advantage of Ror in a sorta situation like this. He'd just be very calm, sweet and re assureing, like a big bro or an uncle or a daddy. :D
Yeah, there's no way it would even cross his mind to take advantage of this kind of situation. He's way, way too sweet. He recognizes - because you know, adults here, he's not blind - that there's probably a sexual component to the freakout Ror's having, combined with them almost DYING and him losing his mask, and the general level of 'cant deal with it' that he has going on with nudity, but it's really, really not the time or place to even think about that.
Which makes me feel a little skeevy for using such a cheap plot device to get them gratuitously naked to begin with? But I really thought that extra level of vulnerability was needed to trip him over into actual panic-attack territory.
Yeah, and to be honest in most situations. People DON't pounce when they know theres a sexual componat to an anger or sence of panic. Which is why (As much as I LOVE smut) I HATE fics that are all "Oh, we are convinaiantly (sp?) naked. I will take advantage of your nakedness and vounerabilty (Sp?) and fuck you." Thats just not how the mind works. Or how people work. At least I like to think that.
No I know of a cheaper one. Yours makes sence. You coould have used a cheaper one like "MOLOCH USES HIS MAGICAL POWERS OF MAGIC NAKEDNESS TO MAKE THEIR CLOTHES POOF AWAY, LOL"
So yeah, no worries. :D
The only fic I've written of them where the nekkidness actually *precedes* the sex, was Nightswimming, and I think I can have a pass on that one since that was kind of the point hahaha.
But yeah. The 'I see an opening, I shall pounce now' thing doesn't really happen. Sometimes it works in fic, for certain characters, for PWP, but that's about it.
Yeah. ):
Plus this type of Emotion porn is better anyways. xD
snake_easing
Okay, that line about how standing on an edge of a cliff is the problem, with a move forward or back both making things bearable... that's inspired. Seriously. Best metaphor I've heard recently. It keeps coming back to me, especially when I was on the edge of a cliff the other day. It's so true to life.
Thank you! I've always felt that actual *falling* wouldn't be as viscerally scary as standing there, teetering, knowing you could fall, probably will fall, but haven't yet and that moment just *stretches*.
Go, Dan, go! C:
Dan is good at what he does. :3

TikTok is reducing the staff of Indian franchise after the countrywide long-standing ban.
By TechDot
FeaturedGadgetsNews

They said that they are hoping once the situation is finally done, they can get started with releasing TIkTok again in India and can help millions of artists, educators, story-tellers, users, and numerous other performances showcase their voices and actions.
India was a huge market for TikTok before the ban, it comprised of 30 percent of the total downloads from India alone, and before the ban the application had a total of 160+ million users just from India alone.
Indian government said that TikTok was banned because it was against the defense, integrity, and security of India.

Not only India, but other countries banned TikTok and reopened it again. Only time will tell if India will reopen TikTok or not.

Probably the easiest way to avoid hurting yourself more when you're struggling through a painful breakup is to stop talking to your ex. Most definitely, don't ask any questions that can spike your anxiety and make you feel worse if you don't get the answer you want.
Before you ask any question, ask yourself, "What's the worst answer I could get?" And if you can't handle that answer, don't ask the question. Because let's face it, you ask questions like, "Have you slept with anyone else?" so that your ex will say no. You ask to feel comforted that he or she is still connected to you. You ask because you're hoping to get back together.
However, think about how you'll feel if he or she says yes, and even elaborates in some way. Will that cause you to say things you'll regret? Cause you to break down uncontrollably? Haunt your thoughts and wake you up in the middle of the night? Maybe even all of the above? Why would you want to do that to yourself? You don't want to be your own worst enemy.
I've spent many hours trying to calm down clients after they asked their ex a question that sent them into a tailspin. I promise you, ignorance really is bliss when it comes to your ex. It's none of your business what he or she is doing now that you're not part of each other's lives. You truly will be happier if you don't know.
Plus the bonus of not speaking to your ex is that you can decide whatever you want is happening with him. Decide he's miserable without you, that he has commitment issues and he can't be happy with anyone. Decide that he's not good for you and that you deserve someone much better!
Your thoughts create your feelings so use your thoughts to make yourself feel better, not worse. Think about your future and focus on becoming the best version of yourself. Believe in yourself and be patient to find the RIGHT person for you. You deserve someone who will make you feel loved and appreciated, someone who will never want to leave you.

The Ketogenic Effect
Pediatric Neuro News
California couple find a palatable answer in Baltimore for their daughter's persistent seizures.
Eric Kossoff, M.D.
Emergency medicine physician Tom Minahan was working the night shift at a Los Angeles hospital when his wife called with concerns that their then 14-month-old daughter, Mallory, might have suffered a seizure. "Bring her into the ED and we'll get her checked out," Minahan said. When she did, the EEG showed no signs of seizure. The Minahans were relieved until a month later, when Mallory suddenly stared off to the left side for a minute. Similar seizures would follow.
"Our thinking was she was having some seizures and with medications she would grow out of it," says Minahan.
So, following tests and an evaluation by a pediatric neurologist, Mallory was put on one medication, then another and another, a therapeutic routine that the Minahans would re-live repeatedly over the next eight years as the seizures—along with the distressing side effects of the drugs—continued. When one anticonvulsant drug didn't work, doctors would prescribe another.
"I'm thinking, what are we doing here?" says Minahan. "What's worse? The seizures or the side effects?"
The Minahans also learned there was no surgical intervention for Mallory's type of generalized seizures, nor any other options, for that matter. But in searching the literature, Minahan read about the Johns Hopkins Children's Center's success with the high-fat, low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet as seizure therapy, including a study that showed one-third of ketogenic diet patients were either seizure-free or had a greater than 90 percent reduction in seizures (Pediatrics, October 2001;108(4)). Hopkins had also created a less-restrictive alternative to the ketogenic diet—the modified-Atkins diet—which the Minahans tried after consulting with an L.A. specialist. Mallory struggled with the diet, however, prompting a call to Hopkins pediatric neurologist Eric Kossoff and a flight across the country to meet with him.
Kossoff recommended the ketogenic diet, assuring the Minahans of the diet's efficacy in reducing the frequency and severity of seizures. Its mechanism is unknown, Kossoff explained, but theoretically the diet's suppression of seizures may be partially related to the buildup and breakdown of ketones, a chemical byproduct of fat. Kossoff added that the diet's therapeutic effects are often longer lasting than those of medications, and come with fewer side effects. However, the diet does require rigorous monitoring.
The Minahans started the ketogenic diet in July 2012. Within six weeks, Kossoff notes, the nature of Mallory's seizures began to decrease in overall number with some seizures clustering, but less severely.
"Most kids who improve on the ketogenic diet have decreases in their seizures within two or three months, so she's fitting into that category," says Kossoff. "She's still having seizures, but they're reduced somewhat in frequency and intensity. Hopefully she'll continue to get better and her seizures will become more sporadic and less intense."
Adds Minahan, "We may get seizure freedom, that's a possibility. So, we may have a phenomenal story to tell in a couple of years."

Usain Bolt Family in real life 2018
Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt (born August 21, 1986) is arguably the fastest man in the world, winning three gold medals at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China, and becoming the first man in Olympic history to win both the 100-meter and 200-meter races in record times. Bolt also won three Olympic gold medals at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London. He ran the men's 100-meter race in 9.63 seconds, a new Olympic record, making him the first man in history to set three world records in Olympic competition. He made history again at the 2016 Summer Games in Rio when he won gold in the 100-meter and 200-meter race and 4x100-meter relay, completing a "triple-triple," earning three gold medals at three consecutive Olympics for a total of 9 gold medals over the course of his Olympic career.

Riverton hospital moves to enter EPA tribal boundary dispute
By Ben Neary, Associated Press
Riverton Memorial Hospital maintains that a recent medical malpractice case filed against it in tribal court on the Wind River Indian Reservation underscores the problems the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency created in its recent decision that the city of Riverton and surrounding lands remain legally Indian Country.
Tribal spokesmen, however, say the tribal court has handled claims against the hospital for years and question why it would raise jurisdictional questions now.
The EPA's 2013 decision that Riverton and more than 1 million acres of surrounding land remain part of the Wind River Indian Reservation came in response to a joint application from the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone tribes to treat their joint Wind River Indian Reservation essentially as a separate state for purposes of administering the federal Clean Air Act.
The hospital on Wednesday asked the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals to allow it to file a friend-of-the-court brief. The hospital wants to join the state of Wyoming, the City of Riverton, Fremont County and others in fighting the EPA ruling.
Wyoming Gov. Matt Mead maintains Congress extinguished the land's reservation status 100 years ago when it opened the area to settlement by non-Indians.
In protesting the EPA decision, Mead and other Wyoming officials have said that a court ruling establishing Riverton remains legally on the reservation would affect provision of state services, including law enforcement protection, to non-Indian residents there.
In the malpractice case pending in tribal court, Riverton lawyer John Vincent represents Cody Armajo, a Northern Arapaho woman. The lawsuit alleges she was taken to the hospital in February 2013 complaining of an injury to her eye but that a doctor there examined her and found nothing much wrong.
The lawsuit states that Armajo was ultimately transported to jail in Lander and jail personnel took her to another hospital when she continued to complain of pain. Doctors there determined she had been shot in the eye and a bullet lodged in her head.
The Riverton hospital's request to dismiss Armajo's case is pending in tribal court. The hospital's arguments filed with the federal court this week state that tribal court is a quagmire where rules and the law are ill-defined.
"This is the impact of the EPA's decision: a non-Indian business has been hailed into tribal court," the hospital's lawyers wrote to the appeals court. "The expansion of the tribes' jurisdiction over an entire city has already begun to have negative consequences on the city's businesses."
Patrick J. Murphy, a Casper lawyer representing the hospital, didn't immediately return a telephone call to his office on Thursday seeking comment.
Vincent, a former mayor of Riverton, said Thursday that the tribal court had handled medical malpractice claims against the hospital before the EPA ruling. "I don't know all of a sudden why this case would stir the controversy up," he said.
The appeals court gave other parties including the tribes until June 8 to file a response to the hospital's request to enter the case. Mark Howell, spokesman for the Northern Arapaho Tribe, said Thursday the tribe would oppose the hospital's request.
Richard Brannan, a member of the Northern Arapaho Tribal Council, issued a statement Thursday saying the Riverton Hospital receives millions of dollars in funding through the Indian Health Service each year for treatment of tribal members.
"This is not the first time that they've had to manage claims for medical negligence in tribal court," Brannan said. He said the Council is confident the hospital will have a fair opportunity to present all its defenses.
Ronald Oldman, a spokesman for the tribe, issued a statement saying the tribe is actively monitoring Armajo's case.
"A tribal member was walking down the street in Riverton. She was shot at random by an unknown gunman, and taken to the Riverton hospital with a bullet hole in her head," Oldman said. "Hospital staff failed to notice the gunshot wound and discharged her."

Leaps and boundaries for Wyoming tribes
State battles Wind River tribes over expanded reservation and greater stake in energy management.
By Joshua Zaffos, High Country News
Riverton, Wyoming, looks like an All-American boomtown, fronted along a busy strip of hotels and fast food joints with steady traffic from industry trucks and pickups. But the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone tribes are arguing that Riverton is part of the Wind River Indian Reservation – and the Environmental Protection Agency agrees. That determination, now before the courts, could allow tribes to have greater involvement in energy development rules and also strike a significant win for tribes after centuries of losing ground.
A 1905 Congressional act opened nearly 1 million acres of Wind River reservation lands in central Wyoming for non-Indian homesteaders, miners and new towns. Later acts restored much of that area as part of the reservation, but 171,000 acres, including Riverton, were never officially returned to the tribes. Despite the developments, the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone, who share the reservation, say the lands have always remained under tribal ownership.
The matter boiled over in 2008 after the Wind River tribes applied to the EPA for "treatment as a state" designation under the Clean Air Act, which would allow them to implement and manage air-quality programs on their shared reservation. In a region heavily reliant on the production from thousands of oil and gas wells, the additional oversight – and a change in jurisdiction – poses some uncertainty for the industry.
The EPA approved the tribes' request in late 2013 and, as part of the proceedings, reviewed the reservation's boundaries. After studying historical records, the EPA announced that the disputed lands are still part of the Wind River reservation.
"It's a big deal for the Wind River tribes and for Wyoming because jurisdiction is what sovereign governments are all about," says Debra Donahue, professor at University of Wyoming College of Law. "It's important for the tribes just as an affirmation that the lands are still within the reservation and they are the primary sovereigns within that territory."
The state of Wyoming, the Wyoming Farm Bureau, and Devon Energy, one of the largest oil and gas companies in the country, all sued EPA over the outcome and asked the Tenth Circuit Appeals Court to review the decision. This month, ten other states filed an amicus brief, asking the court to fully review EPA's boundary determination, and questioning why the agency was wading into Indian law and boundary disputes.
Wyoming Gov. Matt Mead, R, has said the EPA's determination sets a "dangerous precedent" for administrative agency intervention in tribal boundary and state sovereignty issues. Mead has also battled the EPA – and complained of other dangerous precedents – over President Obama's proposed stricter rules and carbon controls for coal-fired power plants, and in defense of the state's own plan to reduce power-plant haze and improve air quality in national parks and wilderness areas, which is more lax than federal plans. Wyoming won backing from the courts on the latter issue last September, allowing coal plants to avoid installing new pollution controls.
If the appeals court upholds the EPA's boundary designations, the state can still tax local citizens and businesses in the Riverton area. According to the Equality State Policy Center, non-Indian people would be minimally impacted, although some new tax advantages could benefit businesses. Enrolled tribal members in the extended area, however, would be under tribal jurisdiction in criminal or legal cases, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs and tribal courts would have more authority.
Under the Wind River tribe-as-state application, the tribes aren't seeking all-out regulatory authority, but they would gain the right to monitor local air quality and to comment on regional projects that could impact environmental health. The state would maintain regulatory control over the oil and gas industry, and it's doubtful the decision would affect energy development. Along with the rest of Wyoming, the Wind River tribes rely heavily on oil and gas for government revenues, but some homes on the reservation have hazardous drinking water, possibly linked to industry activity, and the EPA has even ordered some residents to ventilate homes when bathing or running taps.
Many observers expect the appeals court to overturn the EPA's decision. Donahue says courts are typically reluctant to find in favor of tribes in such boundary disputes.
But one detail in the case could prove essential for the tribes' argument: The century-old law behind the dispute didn't set a single sum payment for the territory, like many other Indian Country purchases, but instead allowed for settlers to buy ceded lands one parcel at a time. "The U.S. Supreme Court has said that distinction is significant," Donahue says, since it's been interpreted to mean Congress wasn't reducing the reservation boundary while the tribes retained an interest in the area. If the appeals court or the Supreme Court upholds that view, tribes with similar circumstances could pick up the strategy.

The Climate Guide To Governors
Thinkprogress.org
By Tiffany Germain, Guest Contributor and Ryan Koronowski on July 1, 2014
Climate denial runs rampant in the halls of Congress, with over 58 percent of congressional Republicans refusing to accept the reality of basic climate science. A new analysis from the CAP Action War Room reveals that half of America's Republican governors agree with the anti-science caucus of Congress.
Click image to view detailed information on each state.
EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy has made it clear through countless meetings with governors and state figures that the only way the new Clean Air Act regulations targeting carbon pollution will work is if the nation's governors are on board.
Indeed, much of the progress that has already been made to address climate change and begin the switch from fossil fuels to clean energy started in the states. California has been busily implementing its cap-and-trade law, doubly approved by voters in 2010. It's been going so well that recent auctions have sold out of permits, and its governor, Jerry Brown, is implementing the rest of the law fairly smoothly. California is so far ahead of the rest of the country that when Congress passed the Clean Air Act, it granted special authority to the Golden State so it could adopt even stronger fuel efficiency standards.
RGGI (pronounced "Reggie") is the cap-and-trade program adopted by nine states in the northeast. Though it stalled at first, a simple correction last year lowered the cap and its last two auctions have been quite successful. This means that as those states seek to comply with the Clean Air Act regulations on power plant carbon pollution once they are finalized, it will be that much easier because their economies have already started to build in a cost of emitting carbon dioxide through RGGI. Most of their governors have taken additional steps to invest in energy efficiency and renewable power sources, but one of them, Maine Governor Paul LePage has denied the reality of climate change and stood in the way of clean energy development. Chris Christie actually pulled his state out of RGGI, and has rejected recent suggestions that rejoining the pact would be the easiest way for businesses to comply with the Clean Air Act carbon rule.
Governors who deny the science behind climate change can do significant damage to our nation's environmental and public health protections. LePage has claimed that "scientists are divided on the subject," when in actuality, less than 0.2 percent of published researchers reject global warming. During LePage's tenure, he has argued that Maine could potentially benefit from the effects of climate change, vetoed legislation that would help the state prepare for extreme weather, and has attempted to dramatically reduce the states renewable energy standards to benefit large corporations. He also tried to sneak through a proposal that would exempt the state from certain anti-smog regulations, undoing protections that have been in place for almost 25 years. These views are wildly unpopular among his constituents –- a 2013 poll found that 85 percent of residents believe climate change is happening and 75 percent believe it's the government's responsibility to take action.
Meanwhile, Governor Rick Perry (R-Texas) has reiterated time and again that he's "not afraid" to call himself a climate change denier. Yet his home state has suffered more climate-fueled disasters than any other, with an astounding 58 climate-fueled disaster declarations since just 2011. The ongoing severe and widespread drought has directly impacted the agriculture industry, which is one of the largest in Texas. 2011 was the driest year in state history, causing a record $7.62 billion in agricultural losses.
When asked if he believes in climate change, Florida Governor Rick Scott (R) replied "No." "I have not been convinced." Yet Florida is one of the first states that will feel the very severe impacts of climate change, as sea-level rise and severe storms threaten to wipe away popular tourist destinations along the coast. In fact, Rolling Stone reported that the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development has listed Miami as the number-one most vulnerable city worldwide in terms of property damage, with more than $416 billion in assets at risk to storm-related flooding and sea-level rise.
Fossil fuel interests have been funneling millions to Republican governors who are willing to block regulations that could potentially hurt their bottom line. In total, the fifteen governors who have denied climate change have taken $15,013,754 in campaign contributions from oil and gas over the course of their careers, with a large majority of that going to Gov. Perry. Republican governors who haven't denied climate change have taken only $3,019,123. In contrast, all Democratic governors have taken a total of $1,403,940. That means that over 77 percent of all oil and gas contributions are being funneled to governors who are outspoken about their disbelief in climate science. On average, climate deniers have taken $1,072,397, while the remainder of governors have only taken an average of $126,373.
While the oil and gas industry is able to reap the benefits, local communities and taxpayers are suffering the dire long-term consequences. Combined, the states who are represented by climate deniers have suffered from 167 climate-fueled extreme weather events that required a presidential disaster declaration in 2011 and 2012. This has cost the federal government, and therefore taxpayers, almost $17 billion in cleanup costs.
Now, more than ever, governors will play a critical role in combating the impacts of climate change. While Congress has refused to move forward on any climate action plan, even voting 109 times last year alone to undermine environmental protections, some governors have pushed forward on their own. "Governors see the impacts of climate change first hand, and have a real understanding of the costs related to health, infrastructure, and their state's economy," said Ted Strickland, President of the Center for American Progress Action Fund and former governor of Ohio.
"If the U.S. is serious about being a leader in addressing climate change and taking advantage of the economic opportunity in clean energy and energy efficiency, it is going to be because states and governors lead the way. The only way the Clean Power Plan is successful is with governors getting on board, as many already have."
Still, many governors will not be guiding their states to lower greenhouse gas emissions because they aren't convinced carbon pollution is a bad thing, while actively discouraging strong renewable energy industries in their states.

as one who attended art college, colour is important to me whether i want it to be or not. i'm also fortunate enough to have a modicum of colour invade my day to day, whether through assimilating pixels in photoshop or figuring out which ones to use in web coding. it's a subject that is, or has become eminently more complex than it at first seems, particularly if involved in any pre-press activities. digital devices view everything in red, green and blue, while that destined for print confusingly inhabits a different colour space altogether. you'll perhaps have come across this when printing out photos from your all singing, all dancing inkjet printer, wondering why on earth the colour seems less vibrant than it did when seen on the computer monitor.
this isn't a pre-press column, so i'll spare you the pantone process colours, and making a body-swerve from the world of digital capture and display, day to day in the world of reality depends frequently upon colour differentiation to make it from morning till night. and to be quite honest, that selfsame world of colour has an even greater job to do when darkness falls. at its most basic, having a red light at the rear of a bicycle not only alerts following cyclists or motorists to your existence, but through socialisation and education, informs that this is a bicycle not travelling towards but in the same direction.
what doesn't really come under the heading of colour or even visibility perception are the all but standard colours used and abused by a disturbing number of cycling apparel manufacturers. i can accept the arguments against producing jackets in unvarying shades of black, for it would seem logical that black outerwear in the darkness of night flies in the face of logic. however, strategic use of reflective panels and piping can often mitigate this apparent cognition problem, perhaps even more so than the all but ubiquitous fluoro yellow. it bears querying why car manufacturers are not as soundly beaten up over painting cars in black.
what cannot be denied is the necessity for some degree of visibility not only during dark evenings, but even in the light of day, when all around is fast moving confusion. as the number of vehicles on the road becomes greater by the day, and trucks and buses fail to diminish in size, there is more that requires concentration, thus anything that raises the profile of a lone cyclist is to be roundly applauded. that is perhaps the construct behind the commonality of red, yellow and blue; however, the ubiquity of the latter three could lead to uniformity in the eyes of the motorist, neutralising that which it was designed to counter. the chaps at hultra have taken the racy approach, combining visibility with go-faster stripes while maintaining a sense of speed.
earlier this year i reviewed the less than snappily monikered d211 short sleeve jersey, the first offering from a new company on the block. though the colours decorating the jersey are just short of fluorescent, they are bright enough to need a volume control. the new softshell ventoux currently inherits only the orange from the jersey range but continues hultra's raison d'etre with admirable fortitude. there's no way you can be ignored while dressed in this.
i cannot deny that a high degree of visibility is not at the forefront of cycling life on islay. even with an influx of summer visitors, traffic never quite reaches epidemic proportions; if i'm completely honest, cycling a bicycle on the island is enough to draw attention in the first place. however, none of that detracts from the need for quality cycle clothing, perhaps even more so than in the great metrolops, because in the rural idyll there is often nowhere to hide when the heavens open or the north wind blows. personal protection has a different meaning.
i was arrogant enough to ask hultra to send a medium, the same size of jersey i have worn since fausto coppi were a nipper; the fit is indeed, absolutely ginger peachy, but if you have wobbly bits where wobbly bits should not be, you would probably be better to heed their advice and nip up to the next size, for there is minimal stretch in the fabric. the full length zip would surely benefit from a so-called zip garage not only to prevent nipping the skin, but to prevent any accusations of chafing while riding on the drops. i wore a merino collar underneath. the neck however, is commendably high, keeping draughts at bay, and even in medium size, the arm length is excellent: orange cuffs are good in my opinion.
though the orange striping is neither reflective nor fluorescent, night time visibility is taken care of by reflective piping on the ventoux's back and front. though minimal and neatly incorporated into the fabric of the jersey, it is remarkably effective in use, even managing to effuse a blinding glare in direct sunlight. job done.
in my review of the hultra jersey, i moaned about the height of the rear pockets, something i found made it awkward to place and retrieve the assortment of paraphernalia one finds it necessary to place and retrieve during a bicycle ride. sadly, the pockets on the ventoux are no different. don't get me wrong, the depth of the main three would carry more than a small van, but the softshell material has little in the way of give which, combined with the height across the back makes life just a bit harder than it needs to be. either that or i need to stick in at my yoga exercises. it is gratifying to note, however, that the centre pocket has a zipped fourth sitting outboard; a mandatory fitting atmo.
the hard part is deciding just what the ventoux softshell is, and what it isn't. on a cold morning i'd habitually pop an outer jacket over a long-sleeve jersey, but a fleece-lined, windproof top surely doesn't need such safeguarding? in the interests of satisfying myself and reader, the softshell was paired with a long-sleeve merino baselayer and the great outdoors embraced with gusto, only to find myself perilously close to overheating. it's as well that the front zip is so simple to raise and lower from the saddle. as a winter jacket that promotes an incredible lightness of being on at least two levels, it proved itself hard to beat.
hultra promote the jersey as being of a water-resistant persuasion, and though you may find it hard to believe, i've had little opportunity to verify this claim. there have been a couple of days of torrential rain when it would have been grossly unfair to wear anything less than a deep sea diving suit, but the intervening days were bereft of anything other than a few splashy puddles. those few puddles did, however. highlight a shortcoming of using large areas of white in a cycle jersey/jacket; white, mudguards or not, has a magnetic attraction for muddy water. that is, however, a trivial complaint when the jacket's modus operandi is to make you stand out in a crowd, something it does with sporting aplomb. with a price tag of only £69.95, assuming you too are of race fit and have no regularly pressing need to fill and empty those rear pockets, adding one or two to your cycling wardrobe shouldn't involve too much endless discussion with yourself.

Donovan McNabb is set to retire as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles to end his career after stints with the Washington Redskins and Minnesota Vikings over his last two years in the league. McNabb never won a Super Bowl in his 13 seasons in the NFL as he lost in his only appearance in 2004 with the Eagles.
Philadelphia lost to the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl that year and McNabb threw three crucial interceptions in the game. Nevertheless, he will go down as one of the greatest quarterbacks in Eagles' history after 11 years with the team.
Last year, McNabb worked as an analyst for the NFL Network during the season and never returned to field though his name came up in free agents talks on a weekly basis. Any type of return is now out the question as Donovan McNabb is set to retire.
The 36-year-old announced his decision to retire as an Eagle on the NBC Sports Radio Show Monday night. McNabb believes the official retirement will happen in September though the Philadelphia Eagles have yet to make an announcement.
During his career, McNabb threw for 37,276 yards and 234 touchdowns. He is currently the Eagles' franchise leader in passing completions (2,801), passing yards (32,873), and touchdowns (216) while he practically wrote the record book at Lincoln Financial Field.
The Eagles' stadium was opened in 2003, during McNabb's fifth year in the NFL, and he posted his best season there in 2004. The University of Syracuse product threw 31 touchdowns and finished with a 64 percent completion rating in 2004, both of which are the highest of his career.
McNabb's started more games behind center than anyone as the Eagles' quarterback and he is now calling it quits and hanging up the jersey for good. He last started six games in 2011 for the Vikings in which he threw for 948 yards and eight touchdowns.
With Donovan McNabb ready to retire, do you believe he is one of the greatest quarterbacks in the Philadelphia Eagles' history?


May 18-19, 2000 Triumph has gone and thoroughly stuck its head into the hornets nest by releasing the TT600 about four years after it first came up with the idea. This time it is making no apologies for taking on the Japanese manufacturers at their own game in what is probably the most hotly contested class – supersport 600s.
A quick scan of the specs panel and a walk around the bike reveal no great surprises. The package hangs off an alloy frame with a four-cylinder, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected powerplant, six-speed transmission and so on.
The performance claims fall somewhere in the middle of the pack, with 170 kilos dry weight and 110 horses being claimed.
Why take on this class when Triumph was getting along quite nicely with its 900cc-plus chaps? According to export manager Ross Clifford, the 600 class is a monster slice of the world market and simply couldn't be ignored if the firm was serious about developing as a manufacturer.
That development is key to the plot. Producing a modest 25,000 bikes per annum at the moment, Triumph is on a mission to become a manufacturer that offers a full range of machinery.
Its reasoning is that a dealer will find it difficult to dedicate resources to the brand until there is a complete line-up on offer. To that end, the UK company says it will be launching two major new models per year for the forseeable future.
Which begs a question: what's next? Well, there's been plenty of talk of a big-bore Bonneville over recent months.
First impression of the TT is that it's among the taller bikes in this class, with a comparatively upright seating position and overall presentation that is reminiscent of the CBR600. Medium-height to tall people will love it, as the ride position is roomy enough to cater for longer limbs. Shorter folk may struggle – we suggest you check it out for size.
Firing up is the standard Triumph practice of pulling the clutch and thumbing the starter – with no throttle. The powerplant has got a note that is its own and is reluctant to wake up under 4000rpm. That last trait can catch you out until you get used to the idea of keeping the engine on the boil.
From 5000 to around 12,500 (redline is 14,000) there's a good, steady, supply of power. Entirely predictable off the throttle, and enabling to the rider to get on the power early on the way out of a turn.
The only exception is a 'step' in action from zero to a touch of throttle that seems to be typical of current fuel injection systems. For some reason the transition doesn't seem to be as smooth as with a conventional carb set-up.
The transmission is easily Triumph's best so far, with a light and positive action. If you get clumsy with the shift it will, if anything, refuse to shift rather than leave you in a false neutral. Good stuff.
Suspension (by Kayaba) is very well sorted stock settings for the road, with adjustment at both ends for preload, rebound and compression.
The TT proved surprisingly comfortable on some fairly snotty roads, and stable at speed. Clifford reckons much of this is down to the factory's efforts to minimise unsprung weight while providing better than average suspension. No argument so far.
Braking up front is compliments of the four-pot stoppers off the T955, working smaller and lighter discs for very good results. Up back there's a single-pot disc set-up.
Instrumentation is what is now becoming the standard analogue tacho and digital speedo/warning lamp/odometer cluster. While we're not fond of digital speedos, Clifford suggested we might as well get used to them as they represent a very significant weight saving for a machine of this type.
There is a range of accessories available off the rack, including pipes, paddock stand, pillion grab handle (which should be standard), pillion seat cowl, luggage rack plus a range of soft luggage designed specifically for the bike.
Over at Phillip Island, the bikes were first tried on road settings, and then with the recommended track set-up that involved bumping up rebound and compression at both ends. On road settings, the bikes started getting wobbly and emotional under the extra stress after a few laps. However the upped damping rates settled this down.
From there it would be a matter of sorting the overall set-up for personal tastes. We noted that the TT600s being used by the Australian Superbike School were running with the fork legs pulled up through the clamps by around 10mm for a little extra front end grip.
Bridgestone 010 rubber in an updated compound is stock fitment and seems to work well enough both on the road and track.
We also got a chance to play with the factory competition carbon muffler. This is a straight swap for the stocker, with a new tuning map downloaded to the bike from the factory diagnostic tool – all up a 20 minute job. Triumph says the more open pipe adds a couple of horses.
The TT feels good on the track and road, providing more comfort than we've come to expect from this class. Without comparing it side-by-side with the likes of CBR, ZX, GSX-R and R6, we can say it's well and truly in the ballpark.
Which is an impressive effort for a first-time stab at the class.
Launch price is $13,990 and it should do very nicely.


Thanks Cathy and Alan for your warm hospitality and great meals, making this beautiful place a special piece of paradise, at Whananaki. We will be back!!
Excellent hospitality, spot & house. Thanks very much. A gem of a spot. Breathtaking views + great hospitality. Will be back next summer.

Beautiful spot to hang out at with the family. It must be brilliant here in the height of summer. We'll have to find out.


Thanks to email, Facebook and Twitter, it's never been easier for parents to keep track of what their children are up to on their gap year adventures in far-flung corners of the globe. But when you get emails like these, collected for a book called Don't Tell Mum: Hair-Raising Messages Home From Gap-Year Travellers, do you really want to know what's going on?
This may come as a shock, but I am thinking of eloping with one of my students to Assam, coz he is from the Naga tribe, and I want to be a Naga girl and go hunting monkeys with bows and arrows and fishing with spears like they do, and then come back and do tribal dancing all night, coz it's so much fun, and all the tribal people here are so great and brave and strong.
Obviously the political situation in Assam isn't ideal, but I'll be OK.
Love you lots. Only an idea at the moment.
I have no clean clothes. Literally everything is smelly and wet. I haven't smelled nice for a month, cos even after a shower I have to dry with a dish towel. Please, Mum, could you fly out here and do my washing?
Sorry it's been so long. Had an eventful rafting trip. We were all kitted out in our wetsuits, waterproofs, helmets and lifejackets, and had just started out on the river (in Peru) when our instructor started shouting instructions to us to turn the boat and back it up.
I turned around to see the body of a young woman not much older than us floating in the water face up. Our instructor asked us to grab the body and attach it to the raft.
The six of us were all in shock, as it was for all of us the first dead body we had ever seen. So, dumbstruck, the only thing we could do was to keep paddling. We got her to the side. We all stood in a circle and said a prayer for her.
We carried on rafting, and luckily all was not ruined, as champagne was bought to celebrate my birthday and we stayed in a lovely campsite with an excellent view of the mountains.
Guess what happened to me last night (in Sydney)?
We were walking back to the hostel and some guy jumped out of his car and whacked me across the head with a hammer — the bit you take nails out with. Then he punched George in the face and drove off.
You keep complaining about my spending but the longer you fail to get this problem sorted out, the more money will get spent.
Beijing is an expensive place to p*** about going to banks all day, plus it's 39 degrees outside, which makes me annoyed the minute I step out of the hotel.
Seriously, I don't know how much longer I can last ... I'm f*** ing fed up with this, stop sending me sarcastic e-mails and telling me 'it doesn't add up'. I DON'T GIVE A F***.
Just go down to HSBC and don't leave until you're convinced that something has taken place which will enable me to come home... I don't care if you have to use all your savings to pay off my overdraft, or if you have to sell your car, PLEASE JUST GET ME HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As part of this traditional building survey, a comprehensive set of aerial photographs of the numerous roofs was required to supplement the report. This included aerial overviews of the grounds, general roof images and specific areas of particular detail.
To comply with CAA requirements, prior to every drone flight, air safety assessments and desktop feasibility studies are required to be completed to maximise the safety of people and property and mitigate risk. The take off and landing areas were cordoned off and following a few other risk mitigating exercises the drone could take off.
Throughout the survey, the clients had full view of the footage via a tablet showing a live feed directly from the drone's camera. They could see exactly which photographs were being taken and instruct me to manoeuvre the drone to any given location. They could also see first hand and in live video the condition of the roof including areas not visible from ground level. The location and angles the drone could fly were not restricted and it can fly safely over and around and safely within feet of the subject property to ensure detail can be seen close up and clearly.
R Pickering Ltd received detailed aerial photographs the following day, as well as the end user also receiving complimentary aerial photographs of Wydale Hall and its grounds. Two jobs for the cost of one.


William Hedrick's pain relief clinic in Muncie was raided in October 2014.
MUNCIE, Ind. — The trial date for a doctor whose Muncie pain clinic was raided nearly three years ago has been postponed.
The trial for William Hedrick had been set for May 15 but has been postponed until Aug. 21.
The delay was due to the late introduction of additional evidence in the case, Delaware County Chief Deputy Prosecutor Zach Craig told The Star Press.
Craig said the new evidence is related to forgery charges that the county will try first.
Hedrick faces three counts of forgery, three counts of prescribing controlled substances with a surrendered DEA registration number, two counts of unlawful dispensing of a controlled substance, Medicaid fraud and four counts of corrupt business influence. State licensing actions against the Fort Wayne-based pain doctor are awaiting resolution of the criminal charges.
Hedrick's medical office on Fox Ridge Lane, known alternately as the Centers for Pain Relief or Indiana Pain Center, opened in July 2013. And even at that time, The Star Press reported, Hedrick had already been placed on a two-year probation by the Indiana Medical Licensing Board.
Despite Hedrick being on probation, hundreds of patients — sometimes more than 100 in a single day, authorities said — came to the new Muncie clinic.
Hedrick and his staff prescribed pain medication in quantities that prompted at least one Muncie pharmacy to stop filling his prescriptions. The clinic also administered pain relief injections to many patients.
Craig said the state planned to call about 10 witnesses, including three former patients and four former employees. It's possible family members of deceased patients will testify in a later case over what the state alleges was reckless prescribing, Craig said.

ATVs can provide hours of safe, enjoyable off-road riding. But ATVs also can be dangerous if you don't understand your vehicle or know proper riding procedures.
Different types of ATVs have their own handling characteristics, so it's important for you to learn how to operate your particular model. For example, most ATVs have front and rear brakes, but some have linked brakes. You need to know the correct braking techniques for your ATV.
ATVs also use different transmissions, shifting mechanisms, throttle mechanisms, starting mechanisms, cooling systems, and axle designs. Controls and their locations also differ from one ATV model to another.

5 The Parade Coulsdon ?
Hello ,I have found on the electoral rolls a relation of mine living at 5 The Parade from 1933-1939 in Coulsdon , it comes under Brighton Rd . I can't seem to find the address now and wondered if anyone knew where The Parade was ?
Any suggestions welcome , thanks .
Re: 5 The Parade Coulsdon ?
I would imagine it was the Parade of shops in the centre.
Go google maps and get Coulsdon up. You will see the Brighton Road now bypasses the town, but when you zoom in, there is a part of the Brighton Road that does still go through the centre. If you get the little man to walk down that bit, it is indeed a "parade" of shops!
Thank you , I will give that a go .
I think you will find that The Parade is actually in what is now known as Old Coulsdon, and not in the Brighton Road. In the first half of the 20th century the original village of Coulsdon was renamed Old Coulsdon to distinguish it from the town that had grown along the Brighton Road in the valley a few miles away that had been called Smitham but had been renamed Coulsdon. The only 'Parade' and named as such, as opposed to a parade of shops, is in the Coulsdon Road near Bradmore Green. The shops are still called The Parade and number 5 is now Danny's Fish & Chip shop. The post code is CR5 1EH if you want to look at it on Google Maps.
Thank you Peter , I was able to zoom in on address , I wonder if they just lived above the shop or ran it ? Many thanks anyway .
Agree with Lizdb that the address was probably a row of shops or houses, possibly on a more major road. It may not even be marked on a map.
In the 1939 Register, the occupants are shown as Harold and Marjorie Turner. He was a Managing Clerk, Hardware and Domestic Stores, so the flat over the shop was obviously for the manager's use.
Thanks both , I have my relative Reginald Thomas Prout , his wife Ann and daughter Diane living at 5 The Parade ,Coulsdon? I think I got it off Ancestry's new releases on Surrey , he is supposedly there from 1933-1939 before moving to Chaldon .

Excavations during 2007 and 2008 at site 10-CN-05, an archaeological site located on the Middle Snake River, five miles south of Melba, Idaho, uncovered material culture remains dating to the Late Archaic (2,500, years ago). An analysis of the archaeological remains, consisting of artifacts, lithic debris, and faunal remains, has provided insights into activities that occurred along the Western Snake River corridor. These activities include maintenance of lithic tools and procurement of medium and small sized mammals. The archaeology of 10-CN-05 suggests a pattern of sparsely populated, highly mobile hunter-gatherers making infrequent use of the area with relatively few repeat occupations.

Sky Sports documentary maker passes on expert tips to multimedia sports journalists of tomorrow
News Page 25th January 2019
A leading television sports documentary maker took time out of his busy schedule to offer industry insights to students looking to follow in his footsteps.
Simon Watts, who has created football documentaries for Sky Sports, provided expert advice to Multimedia Sports Journalism students at the University of Northampton, who are busy working on their own sporting docs.
His visit, which took place on Thursday 24 January, saw Simon explain how to pitch documentary ideas to commissioning organisations, using his own experience of persuading Sky to back his Out of Contract project – a programme broadcast in 2016 that followed the fortunes of players facing life on the football scrapheap.
Simon, who also worked on Sky Sports' The Next Jamie Vardy, spent time listening to the students' own documentary ideas, offering them tips on how to improve them.
Course leader, Marc Webber, said: "Simon is the latest of a group of people working in our industry who has added to the wealth of knowledge and experiences students have studying Multimedia Sports Journalism at the University of Northampton.
"His understanding of the whole sports documentary process, from pitch to presentation, gave our future sports storytellers a real insight to the challenges they face not just for their forthcoming assessment, but for their careers in the future.
"It is just one of many of the real-life experiences future sports content creators get when they study in a town full of sport including world-class club rugby, motorsport, county cricket and numerous football teams. "
Find out more about Multimedia Sports Journalism on the course page.

270 years! That's how long this fabric has been in use by coal miners throughout the world; and our mill has been in business weaving it, since 1777.
The coal miners's gospel says, "Put a cotton moleskin shirt on in the morn, head for a grueling day below the earth's surface and this cloth is the only protection between you and your skin." Taking the shirt off as you walk through the kitchen door, holding the door open with one hand, while giving the shirt to your wife who has the waiting soap and hot water bath ready for both shirt and miner.
Fit Details: Many of the shirt's performance features, like side panels and bi-swing help to provide fit comfort – the size measurements in the chart below reflect standard industry sizing. We have built into our Signature shirts "body ease" - so if you find you are between two sizes in the standard chart below, we recommend dropping down in size, not up. There is little to no shrinkage due to garment wash of the fabric as part of the finishing.
