Chase Fine Arts Center 50th Anniversary Gala: Newel and Jean Daines Concert Hall Opening
Welcome to this evening \u27s grand gala performance in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Daryl Chase Fine Arts Center! Thank you all for joining us this evening. This anniversary and grand reopening celebration is one of the primary reasons that we have declared this Year A Year of the Arts: USU and the Cache Valley community have been leaders in the arts for the state of Utah, and I am proud as president of Utah State University to reaffirm our commitment to continue to make the arts a vital component of our land-grant mission at USU.https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/music_programs/1132/thumbnail.jp

Big Brother Declares War on Consumption
Doctors routinely advise patients to avoid a wide range of unhealthy behavior, such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, a poor diet, and lack of exercise. Beyond these salutary suggestions, however, there is also a growing paternalistic trend to prohibit activities like smoking—and through targeted taxation, governments are taking aim at food deemed unhealthy for having too much fat, preservatives, salt, or sugar. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg\u27s ban on large, sugary drinks was just ruled unconstitutional in a unanimous decision by the state Supreme Court\u27s Appellate Division—but this ruling isn\u27t likely to discourage hardened advocates.https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/huntsman_news/1141/thumbnail.jp

Rediscovery of the Threatened River Sharks, Glyphis garricki and G. glyphis, in Papua New Guinea
Recent surveys of the shark and ray catches of artisanal fishers in the Western Province of Papua New Guinea (PNG) resulted in the rediscovery of the threatened river sharks, Glyphis garricki and Glyphis glyphis. These represent the first records of both species in PNG since the 1960s and 1970s and highlight the lack of studies of shark biodiversity in PNG. Two individuals of G. garricki and three individuals of G. glyphis were recorded from coastal marine waters of the Daru region of PNG in October and November 2014. The two G. garricki specimens were small individuals estimated to be 100–105 cm and ~113 cm total length (TL). The three G. glyphis specimens were all mature, one a pregnant female and two adult males. These are the first adults of G. glyphis recorded to date providing a more accurate maximum size for this species, i.e. ~260 cm TL. A single pup which was released from the pregnant female G. glyphis, was estimated to be ~65 cm TL. Anecdotal information from the fishers of pregnant females of G. glyphis containing 6 or 7 pups provides the first estimate of litter size for this species. The jaws of the pregnant female G. glyphis were retained and a detailed description of the dentition is provided, since adult dentition has not been previously documented for this species. Genetic analyses confirmed the two species cluster well within samples from these species collected in northern Australia
