At 3:01 p.m., two callers alerted sta- tions 20 (county), 17 (Arbala) and 13 (Brinker) to a possible grass fire at 740 County Road 1181, where callers could see and smell smoke, according to 911 call logs. “We would hit the head of the fire, and by the time we got around, the wind would pick back up and it would take off again,” said Arbala station’s Christy Fairchild. Although one home approximately 50 yards from the fire was in the path of the flames, the home was not damaged. Fairchild estimated the total damaged area of the fire to be greater than or equal to 20 acres. The Texas Forestry Service re- mained on scene after the fire was ex- tinguished to establish a cordon around the home and continue monitoring for safety, Fairchild said. “I just want to say thank you to each fire station that came out today to put out our pasture fire,” landown- Career and Technology Education Director Jenny Arledge (left) er Brandie English said. “It spread SSHS kicks off CTE Month and Mayor John Sellers display the CTE proclamation Sellers read from the back tree line in the matter to kick-off CTE month at Sulphur Springs High School. of minutes, and if the fire department By TAMMY VINSON “This is an important Staff photo by Tammy Vinson wouldn’t have gotten there so quickly, tammy.vinson month,” Sellers said. “It’s won- @ssnewstelegram.com I’m scared to think we could have lost derful what the school does employability skills necessary rience, which enables them to with these career programs.” our home.” for true career readiness by Sulphur Springs Mayor John Sellers read from the proc- make informed and beneficial English said she “can’t say thank providing students with career you enough,” because even though the Sellers officially kicked off Ca- lamation, “CTE programs of- decisions about their academic reer and Technical Education fer students the opportunity to exploration opportunities ear- fire “looks far away … the fact that it Month at SSHS Monday. gain academic, technical and lier in their educational expe- See CTE, page 3A moved so quickly and right for our house has me so thankful we were at home when we were.

This book is intended for the traveller in that special world called Imagination. Some would say that Somery does not exist. That is true, in the same sense that Middle-Earth, Utopia and Hogwarts do not exist. But still, to some people, when reading the books, those places may feel as complex and vivid as if they actually did exist. To me Somery is such a place, even if it is merely there in my head. I see it as a tool for my imagination; a trigger for my creativity. Why, I still hear some of you ask, do grown up men spend hours on something that might seem so meaningless as creating imaginary countries? Well, you could ask the same question about many things. Why do people collect stamps? Why do people dress up as characters out of Tolkien’s books? Why do people spend a whole weekend playing computer games on a network? We all get something back that makes us smile, and enjoy life. Bo Bernvill Kaxholmen 2008 4 5 SUNDRIES HOW TO GET THERE Somery has regular airline connections with a number of large cities.

  • I Want to Be a Part of It: Popular Music and Me an Honors Thesis (HONRS
    - I Want to Be a Part of It: Popular Music and Me An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by William L. Allen Thesis Advisors Dr. Tony Edmonds Mr. Stan Sollars Ball State University Muncie, Indiana April 1996 May 1996 (expected graduation date) " , " - I .~.!~, Author's Note: IA6~ What you are about to read is basically my autobiography. It concerns my relationship with popular music, which, outside of family and friends, is the most important part of my life. It's a relationship that has been going on for more than two decades, and I feel it is worth close examination on my part. For my senior thesis, I decided to perform my own concert. I would like more than anything in life to be an entertainer. Since show business is so hard to get into (and be successful), I thought I should perform while I still had the chance--before I had to settle down and get a real job. The written part, which you are now reading, is very informal. Throughout high school, I was always told not to use contractions and not to write in the informal second person. I've always questioned this. After all, it's my work. Who has the right to tell me what I can and can not put in it? I write in a very conversational style. When I tell a story, it helps if I feel as though I'm conversing with or writing a letter to you, the reader. Consequently, I use the pronoun "you" from time to time. I use contractions because that's how we as human beings speak.
