Wagner Noel Performing Arts Center gains scale and funding plan
The Wagner Noel Performing Arts Center design was unveiled at UTPB with a 1800 seat main hall, a 100000 square foot facility to be built near FM 1788 and Highway 191. Rising costs push the price to 89 million, prompting an additional 10 million raise with 6 million coming from the UT system if 4 million local is matched. Community support from Odessa, Midland, and surrounding towns, plus tributes to Buddy West, aims to open by early 2012.

Politicized justice and the Nixon era echoes
Stephen Chapman argues in the Chicago Tribune that politicized justice erodes fairness. The piece connects Nixon’s purge attempts with Bush era concerns over ideological testing in the Justice Department, citing 2006 firings of U S attorneys and investigations into hiring decisions in the civil rights division. It underscores the need for prosecutors to act without partisan aims to preserve public trust.
