"Liberty Power's devotion to our nation's foremost duty preparing our youth for the challenges and opportunities of the future is commendable, and we are honored to partner with them in this endeavor," said Marc Rodriguez, USHCC Chairman of the Board.

The Bright Horizons Scholarship was geared towards eligible college students pursuing an education in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) with an interest in pursuing a career in energy or the environment. A selection committee comprised of business leaders and policymakers within the energy industry selected one grand prize winner to receive a $10,000 scholarship and two runners-up to each receive a $5,000 scholarship. The three winners were honored by David Hernandez, co-founder and CEO of Liberty Power, and the USHCC during the annual convention's closing gala on September 17.

"I was very impressed with our first-ever group of Bright Horizons Scholarship winners; it has been a privilege spending time with them. It is very rewarding to know Liberty Power is helping them prepare for their future," said Mr. Hernandez. "We are delighted to partner with the USHCC Foundation as we continue to support bright young minds pursue their educational goals."

The $10,000 scholarship was awarded to Tatiana Narvaez, who is earning her undergraduate degree in chemical engineering from Rice University.

"I am honored to be a recipient of Liberty Power's Bright Horizons Scholarship mostly because I can be a role model to other Hispanic women pursuing careers in engineering," said Ms. Narvaez. "This award not only gives me a sense of accomplishment for all my hard work but it also helps me continue my goal in providing the future's energy as well as protecting the environment, and for that I am thankful," she added.

The two $5,000 scholarships were awarded to Jonathan Taylor Fairey, an undergraduate student at the Georgia Institute of Technology majoring in industrial and systems engineering, and Lawrence Valverde, who is earning his doctorate degree in materials science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

"I felt both very honored and thrilled when I found out that I was awarded this scholarship. I've always been intrigued by energy and how it is generated and transmitted and how it affects the environment," said Mr. Fairey. "With the support of this scholarship, I look forward to continuing my education and pursuing a career in energy."

"Receiving the Bright Horizons Scholarship carries great meaning for me. As a young Hispanic pursuing graduate study in a STEM field, I hope to inspire and provide confidence to my younger peers to pursue careers in STEM as well," said Mr. Valverde.

Liberty North’s football seniors — one-of-a-kind

Posted on by

LIBERTY, Mo. Sometimes good things dont happen overnight.

Liberty North High School was opened back in 2010, and its then-newly-fielded football team took its lumps, losing all nine of its games in season number one.

However, those young Eagles are growing up, and so far, 2013 seems to be their chance to take flight before seeing its original class of freshman call it a career.

Liberty Norths first complete class of seniors are getting one last go-round. Its the last opportunity for a group of Northland athletes whove savored every opportunity to play ball.

26 players in Liberty Norths camp are seniors, who will forever brag that they grew up in this system, beginning with their freshman year when LHNS didnt find a single W.

Its a sense of pride, Liberty North Senior Linebacker Nick Hess said. Were all really into this. We really love Liberty North, and we want to do the best for our school and our football team.

Fourth-year coach Ken Clemens has been there for the entire ride, joining when the new high school opened its doors. Clemens looked on as his Eagles stumbled through their early days, while contending with low student enrollment in the new school and general football inexperience in the huddles.

We viewed that as sort of a weakness in the program our first year, Clemens said. Every year, we try harder to be as physical as we can be. The seniors have molded themselves into what weve asked out of them.

Since that winless debut three years back, Liberty North has averaged seven wins per season during their two most recent campaigns. Players say the never missed being moved away from Liberty High, a crosstown football powerhouse.

It was a little strange going to a new school. Nothing was really different after that, Liberty North Wide Receiver Paul Silvio said.

Libertarian Charlie Earl to enter Ohio gubernatorial race

Posted on by

By Joe Vardon

The Columbus Dispatch Friday September 20, 2013 6:02 AM

Charlie Earl last served in the Statehouse 30 years ago, completing a three-year stint in the Ohio House. He also ran as a Libertarian for Secretary of State in 2010.

A former Republican lawmaker says he has tea party support to run as a Libertarian for governor next year.

But Charlie Earl, 67, a retired college professor who announced his bid to challenge Republican Gov. John Kasich yesterday, supports legalizing marijuana and gay marriage social issues that conservatives (and Kasich) oppose.

Some speculate that a credible Libertarian candidate like Earl could eat into Kasichs base because of some anger toward the governor among tea partiers.

The government has no moral authority to determine who individuals can love, Earl said in an interview posted last week on the Findlay 9.12 Projects website. Governments have no hearts, no minds and no souls. Why should we trust them to make personal, moral choices for us?

In a brief interview with The Dispatch yesterday ahead of his campaign announcement in Tiffin, Earl said, Weve got tea- party support.

The disaffection, the dissatisfaction people have with both parties is palpable, Earl said.

The likely Democratic candidate in 2014 is Cuyahoga County Executive Ed FitzGerald.
