Hi all , I am new to TF. I've been working on the design I wanted to upload to psd category but it got rejected.I did 7 pages and it took my a lot of time so really dissapointed..
The theme itself was suppose to have that rugged/masculine feeling but I suppose it's all about keeping it clean.
I'd would love to get some guidance and advice from senior members.

While a pair of schools won their seventh consecutive state titles, a two-time runner-up finally realized his championship dreams, and another competitor hit the triple crown with her third state title, a course record and a team title.
All in a days work at the Washington State Cross Country Championships.
Perhaps no one was happier to cross the finish line first Saturday at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco than Meads Andrew Gardner, who finished second in the Class 4A boys race the last two years but crushed the field by 14 seconds, winning in 15 minutes, 2.3 seconds.
Meanwhile, Glacier Peaks Amy-Eloise Neale capped a marvelous state career with her third title plus the Grizzlies second team title in three years.
Neales time of 17:03.6 not only was a course record, but it was 41 seconds better than future University of Washington teammate Katie Knight of North Central, who beat Neale for the title last season.
It feels awesome, Neale said. Coming into this weekend, I didnt want to leave anything out there undone. My goal was going under 17, and I came very, very close.
Added Knight: If you have just a not-perfect race against Amy, youre not going to win, and she had a perfect race. Im so happy for her.
The North Central boys posted their seventh consecutive 3A championship, moving two shy of the nine Mead put together ending in 1996. However, judging by coach Jon Knight (Katies father), catching up with Pat Tysons old teams is not the goal.
Each team is a team unto itself, he said. We dont put that burden on them.
The states other seven-time defending champion, the girls of Northwest Christian (Lacey), placed four in the top 10 and buried a good St. John-Endicott team 40-74.
Meanwhile, Sehome doubled up in the 2A ranks, winning the boys and girls titles for the third time in five seasons.

Dean Zerbe, Contributor
I write about tax policy and how it affects business.
Let's start with good marks. The President had heartening things to say about the role of small business, recognizing that it is they that create the jobs, and he put forward proposals that will be of some help.
To that end, the President proposes cutting in half the payroll taxes for businesses (limited to the first $5 million in payroll for all companies). This proposal will put some dollars in the pockets of business owners. With businesses desperate for lines of credit and cash-in-hand this will be of some help.
Of note: the President expands the payroll holiday on the employee-side (everyone working) from last year to now he proposes increasing it to half of payroll tax.
Also good news for business – the allowance for continuing to allow businesses to write off investments in 2012 means a continuance of current law as to accelerated depreciation (100% expensing) and Section 179.
The President's proposal for a payroll holiday for any increase by a business in payroll is interesting (available for businesses with growth in payroll up to $50 million — pretty generous). Meaning if payroll for a company goes up (from previous year) because of increased hiring or an increase in wages than no employer-side payroll tax due on the increase in payroll for the year. Pretty straightforward.
The credit for new hires ($4,000) is somewhat more bells and whistles. This proposal requires proof that the new hire has been looking for work for 6 months. I hope Congress looks closely as to how easily for small businesses to qualify for the new hire credit. Also a sidenote, worried that there is chaff with the wheat – businesses can be sued under the President's proposal if found to discriminate against the unemployed in hiring. This is one of those sounds-good proposals but in practice places another grind on business (but at least a jobs bill for employment lawyers).
As discussed in an earlier column, the President has put forward a proposal for a tax credit for hiring veterans. That will certainly be popular – but again hope Congress makes it simpler and easier for businesses to qualify. The proposal won't help veterans if businesses view it as too complicated. In addition, be nice if Congress added provisions to encourage veterans to start their own business (basically wish more tax policies in general to encourage investments in new businesses – disappointing).
While not tax, the unemployment insurance extension – coupled with the Georgia plan of allowing training while collecting unemployment is well-considered to give the Congress greater comfort in looking at an extension.
Now the incomplete marks. The President again leaves us with rhetoric and not practical proposes on tax reform and closing tax "loopholes." The President needs to lead with actual proposals with details not 10,000 foot, pie-in-the-sky rhetoric (especially tax reform – enough jawing already). Cutting taxes is always popular – but raising taxes, eliminating loopholes – that is not a happy place for lawmakers. If these tax proposals are going to happen they are going to be offset it appears – with both Congress and the White House saying a jobs bill needs to be revenue neutral. The price tag of the President's proposals is significant ($245 billion on the tax-side alone according to the White House – and probably a low estimate – will see what Joint Tax says).
The president's proposals make sense to me. The economy has faltered and jobs growrh, stagnated. His proposals are not designed to impact long-term growth, but short-term growth to avoid a double-dip recession. It provides more money in the hands of small businesses and average-income Americans that should encourage hiring at home and boost demand for good and services, which just might lead to more hiring or, at least, fewer layoffs. Closing special interest tax loopholes to help pay for a matter of significant public interest — stabilizing our economy and promoting jobs growth and small businesses — is a fair tradeoff in my view. Increasing taxes on the wealthiest among us to help pay for the stimulus and raise revenue for the long-term is good fiscal policy also, provided it is combined with long-term austerity measures. After all, the gap between the rich and poor has widened over the past few decades, and especially during the Great Recession, so why shouldn't the tax burden?
Dean, thanks for the insightful opinion and trying to keep to the facts. Personally leaning to the left, it's hard to take another persons opinion when it only involves bashing the other party. Both sides are going to need to work together in order to get out of this mess. That will probably include increased taxes and entitlement cuts. Times are tough, we all have to share the pain.
Rob C.
Good article. I'm confused by the President's comments last night regarding small business owners. The President wants reforms for small business owners in order to grow jobs, and then wants to raise taxes on the wealthy, aren't many small business owners considered wealthy (making over $250k annually)?
It looks to me that the raisers in the bill are just there for politics. Why should percentage depletion and Section 199 be ended for just oil ?
The limit on getting capital gains for carried interest has new language. I think larger hedge funds will be able to beat it.
I'm afraid that the limit on itemized deductions will end up being a tax on charity.
Picking five thins from the populist grag bag and then punting the balacne to the Select Committee seemed really cynical to me.

Students in the Department of Psychology may elect a major within the psychology program, or they may elect an interdisciplinary major in neuroscience, sponsored jointly by the departments of Psychology and Biology (see Neuroscience). The program in psychology examines contemporary perspectives on principles of human behavior, in areas ranging from cognition, language, development, and behavioral neuroscience to interpersonal relations and psychopathology. Its approach emphasizes scientific methods of inquiry and analysis.
Requirements for the Major in Psychology
The psychology major comprises ten courses. These are selected by students with their advisors and subject to departmental review. The major includes Psychology 1101 {101}, which is a prerequisite to further study in psychology, and Psychology 2510 and 2520 {251 and 252}. These three core courses should be completed before the junior year when feasible. The major also includes laboratory and advanced courses. Students have the option of taking either (a) two laboratory courses numbered 2700–2799 {260–280} and two advanced courses numbered 3000–3999 {300–399}, or (b) three laboratory courses numbered 2700–2799 {260–280} and one advanced course numbered 3000–3999 {300–399}. Note that no more than one course from among Psychology 2750 {275}, 2751 {276}, and 2775 {280}, may count toward the two-course laboratory option; no more than two of these courses may count toward the three-course laboratory option. Similarly, no more than one course from among Psychology 3010 {320}, 3011 {321}, and 3013 {323} may count toward the two-advanced-course option; and no more than one course from among Psychology 3050 {315}, 3051 {316}, 3052 {319}, 3056 {313}, and 3059 {322} may count toward the two-advanced-course option. Finally, the major includes three electives chosen from among all psychology courses. Students are encouraged to consider an independent study course on a library, laboratory, or field research project. Independent study courses at any level count as electives, but do not count toward the laboratory requirement or the advanced-course requirement.
Students who are considering a major in psychology are encouraged to enroll in Psychology 1101 {101} during their first year at Bowdoin and to enroll in Psychology 2510 and 2520 {251 and 252} during their second year. Students must take Psychology 2510 {251} before 2520 {252}, and Psychology 2510 {251} must be taken prior to any course numbered 2700 and above {260 and above}. Psychology 2520 {252} must be taken concurrently with (or prior to enrollment in) any laboratory course (numbered 2700 to 2799, with the exception that 2520 {252} is not required for 2720 {260}) but must be taken prior to any advanced course (numbered 3000–3999 {300–399}). If possible, students should begin their laboratory work no later than the fall of their junior year. Those who plan to study away from campus for one or both semesters of their junior year should complete at least one laboratory course before leaving for their off-campus experience and plan their courses so that they can complete the major after returning to campus. Students should speak with the chair of the department regarding their off-campus study plans and transfer of credit toward the major. Laboratory or advanced courses taken elsewhere may be counted as electives but are not normally counted toward the laboratory or advanced course requirement.
Requirements for the Minor in Psychology
The psychology minor comprises six courses, including Psychology 1101 {101}, 2510 {251}, and 2520 {252}, and one laboratory course.
Grade Requirements
To fulfill a major (or minor) requirement in psychology, or to serve as a prerequisite for another psychology course, a grade of C- or better must be earned in a course. There is one exception: Psychology 1101 {101} may be taken with the Credit/D/Fail grading option, and it will count toward the major (or minor) and serve as a prerequisite for other psychology courses if a grade of CR (Credit) is earned for the course.
AP/IB Policy
Students who receive an AP score of 4 or higher on the psychology exam are considered to have met the prerequisite for courses requiring Psychology 1101 {101}. Students who receive an IB score of 5 or higher on the (higher level) psychology exam are considered to have met the prerequisite for courses requiring Psychology 1101 {101}. If students place out of Psychology 1101 {101}, ten psychology courses must still be completed for the major, and six for the minor.
Requirements for the Major in Neuroscience
See Neuroscience.

Destiny Rising
Dancers snuck out for a break at the Pinkberry Yogurt shop during the NYC Dance Alliance Foundation's first anniversary at The Joyce Theater.
The NYC Dance Alliance Foundation (NYCDAF)
celebrated its first anniversary at The Joyce Theater on January 16th with a dazzling evening of dance artistry "Destiny Rising" featuring outstanding NYCDA alumni, the dynamic choreography of NYCDA faculty and special guest performances by stars of prominent dance companies, all to benefit the NYCDAF College Scholarship Program.
Many of the performers who made their Joyce Theater debut are NYCDAF scholarship winners.
Monday evening's gala performance certainly lived up to its title, as audiences were treated to magnificent performances by well known alumni and tomorrow's dance world stars. With a cadre of young dancers – some only 14 – these future stars executed performances that were astonishing in their level of technique, polish, poise and passion.

Launched by
Joe Lanteri
, Founder & Executive Director of The New York City Dance Alliance, the foundation last August distributed an astounding $2.8 million in scholarships to promising young dancers at NYCDA"s Summer Convention last year.
As a result, The Joyce was packed to the rafters with aspiring young dancers many from colleges participating in the NYCDAF Scholarship Program including Marymount Manhattan, Philadelphia's University of the Arts and Mercyhurst. They were there to cheer on their fellow students and celebrate an organization whose mission is the empowerment of young professional dancers through education.

The proceeds raised from the live auction and ticket sales totaled approximately $750,000 and will benefit the Palm Beach Police Department and its employees. Following the auction, the guests enjoyed a sumptuous dinner and entertainment provided by Party on the Moon that kept a constant crowd on the dance floor.

Official Mobile Nations #TM13 teaser!
Mobile Nations' own Kevin Michaluk of CrackBerry, Phil Nickinson of Android Central, Rene Ritchie of iMore, and Daniel Rubino of Windows Phone Central, are joined by John P and Cali Lewis of Geekbeat.tv to tease our huge new [redacted].
Suffice it to say, you know how we used to do those monster Smartphone Round Robin events? You know how you've been bugging us every day of every week ever since about doing another one? Well, we've been listening. And in typical Mobile Nations style, we'll be taking things to a whole new level.
That's all I can say for now, but stay tuned to all of our sites, follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and G+, and look out for #TM13 for more!
There are 6 comments. Add yours.
This better not be another "mind-blowing" suspense-ridden crackerberry thriller ;) *jk*
Having now watched the vid it sounds fantastic! Hope you guys all have a great week and a great time together! Really looking forward to the fruit of your labors =)
Maybe they're going to say they were bought out. Or that a vicious attempt was made to do so, but they successfully repelled the attack in the canyons of Manhattan in an architectural onslaught as seen in the beginning of The Meaning of Life.
Can't wait!
Your job trumps mine this month. Have fun.
Does anyone else see the resemblance to The Big Bang Theory cast?
Looking forward to it! (But please don't turn it into "The Samsung and Google Show," like Geek Beat sometimes degenerates into.)

CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) -- The oldest person in the United States has died at age 113, just weeks before her 114th birthday.
A spokeswoman from Elsie Thompson's church in Clearwater, Fla., said she died March 21.
The Gerontology Research Group, which verifies age information for Guinness World Records, listed Thompson as the oldest living U.S. citizen after January's death of 114-year-old Mamie Rearden of South Carolina.
Thompson was born in Beaver Falls, Pa., on April 5, 1899. Her husband, Ronald Thompson, was a Republican state senator in Pennsylvania, and in 1971, the couple moved to Clearwater, Fla. Mr. Thompson died in 1986.
Mrs. Thompson is survived by her son, who is in California, and four grandchildren.
She often said the secret to her longevity was loving people and greeting each day with a smile.

At 66 years old, Fred Haggard plans to spend about three more years as executive director of Food Runners Collaborative, a Raleigh nonprofit that supplies food to the elderly, homeless and disadvantaged in the Triangle.
When he departs, he wants to ensure a smooth transition at the organization he has led since 2008. So he made time last year to attend a seminar on succession planning offered by the N.C. Center for Nonprofits. Since then, hes worked with his board and team on building a plan that ensures candidates for senior roles at the nonprofit are identified, trained and ready to step up if needed.
I was in the U.S. Air Force for 25 years, and there I learned vividly that succession happens all the time, Haggard says. Every three years or so, you were moving on. You need to be ready.
Many nonprofits here and throughout the United States, however, are not.
A report by the Bridgespan Group in 2009 predicted that several hundred thousand nonprofit leadership jobs would need to be filled nationally between then and 2016 as Baby Boomers retired from those roles. And the impact is being felt right now in North Carolina.
The Charlotte Observer reported last month that the top executives of at least 35 of the citys nonprofits have stepped down over the past year, and numerous fund-raising roles are also open. The reasons for the departures range from retirement to better jobs elsewhere.
In these situations and also those where executives leave because of health problems or other emergencies, nonprofits that have not planned properly risk seriously disrupting day-to-day operations, alarming donors and overburdening remaining staff. And yet many organizations, chronically short-staffed, under-funded and pressed for time, have not made succession planning a priority.
Its a very big issue and one that the center sees as critical for the health of our sector, said Trisha Lester, vice president of the N.C. Center for Nonprofits. With a challenge grant from the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation, the Center will do a statewide survey to gauge the full extent to which nonprofits need assistance with executive transitions and talent pipeline development.
Get started early
In the meantime, succession planning will be a central focus of the centers annual statewide conference, scheduled for Sept. 19-20 in Concord. Consultants Tom Adams and Jeanie Duncan will lead a full-day workshop for nonprofit chief executives, board members and key staff.
Theres one thing thats inevitable, and thats a leadership transition, Duncan says. Sooner or later, its going to happen.
Before it does, say Duncan and other experts, there are several important steps that nonprofits should take right away.
The first of these: simply get started on a succession plan.
Nonprofit leaders are often intimidated by the work involved in creating it. But tools and templates exist that make it possible to develop a well-conceived plan in a relatively short amount of time and will be highlighted at next months succession workshop
Communication, transparency key
A good plan identifies key positions in the organization and the current employees who are capable of being promoted into them. It ensures those individuals will receive training that prepares them to take on those duties if necessary. As plans are developed, effective communication and transparency among the board, executives and staff is crucial. And when a leadership transition does occur, the work still isnt done. Board members should stay closely connected with newly installed executives to ensure they are getting the support they need early in their tenures.
Floyd Davis, president and CEO of Community Link, a Charlotte nonprofit focused on affordable housing, got serious about succession planning two years ago.
Ive observed what has happened to nonprofits after their executive director or president or CEO leaves, Davis says. Many of them really flounder for a while and some actually end up going out of business. I dont want that to happen.
So Davis and his board have developed an emergency transition plan. They also created a routine plan that names Davis eventual successor and also targets other staff for development and promotions. Davis has led Community Link for 12 years and hasnt set a departure date yet. But when that day comes, he says, it wont be a surprise to the organization or for the thousands of state residents who count on its services.

With the borough working aggressively to rebuild its boardwalk, Belmar will vote today to keep beach badge costs at 2012 prices.
Belmar mayor and council had originally thought an increase was necesary to cover the cost of debris removal and boardwalk rebuild. The Belmar boardwalk was all but totally destroyed in Hurricane Sandy.
With a bid to rebuild coming in less than half the estimated cost, today's meeting will instead feature a resolution that keeps beach badges at the same price.
Beach badges are $50 for a seasonal pass; $15 for seniors; $7 daily; free for children 15 and younger and active duty military and their families
Earlier in December, mayor and council considered a $1 increase to daily and a $5 increase to seasonal badges.
Belmar planned to spend $17 million to rebuild its boardwalk, destroyed in Hurricane Sandy. The borough approved a $6.59 million contract for Epic Construction to rebuild the boardwalk as it was, but with increased hurricane protection.
Mayor and council aim to have the boardwalk open by Memorial Day, in what Mayor Matt Doherty called an aggressive push to be at the front of the line of towns hoping to rebuild their boardwalk.
On today's meeting agenda, in addition to setting the 2013 beach badge rates, the borough council will also vote to waive construction fees through June 30.
The borough previously voted to waive construction fees to ease the rebuilding costs for residents affected by Hurricane Sandy.
The meeting is at 10 a.m. in borough hall.

New York Times bestselling author C.J. Box's novels have been called "red hot" (Booklist) and "edge-of-your-seat read[s]" (Omaha World-Herald). Now he delivers a novel that will steal your sleep as much as it will wrench your heart. Three Weeks to Say Goodbye is a novel about something that could be anyone's worst nightmare. . .
Jack and Melissa McGuane have spent years trying to have a baby. Finally their dream has come true with the adoption of their daughter, Angelina. But nine months after bringing her home, they receive a devastating phone call…
Angelina's birth father, a teenager, never signed away his parental rights—and he wants her back. Worse, his father, a powerful Denver judge, will use every trick in the book to make sure it happens. The McGuanes attempt to meet face-to-face with the father and son…but soon it becomes clear that there's something sinister about their motivations—and that love for Angelina is not one of them.
A horrifying game of intimidation and double crosses begins that quickly becomes a death spiral where everyone is suspect and no one is safe. Now Jack and Melissa will stop at nothing to protect their child—even though time is running out…

IT WAS SATURDAY MORNING, November 3, and the first thing I noticed when I entered my office was that my telephone message light was blinking. Since I'd left the building late the night before, it meant someone had called my extension during the night. Odd.
My name is Jack McGuane. I was thirty-four years old at the time. Melissa, my wife, was the same age. I assume you've heard my name, or seen my image on the news, although with everything going on in the world I can understand if you missed me the first time.

I am writing in support of Gov. Cuomo's "Women's Equality Agenda," a bill that protects women's rights in 10 critical areas of continuing discrimination and inequality in New York state. Among other important reforms, the bill proposes moving the regulation of abortion out of the criminal code and into the Public Health Law, where it belongs. In doing so, New York state law would ensure that a doctor can provide the medical care a woman needs if something goes terribly wrong at any point in her pregnancy without being subject to criminal investigation.
Some have tried to scare the public by claiming that Gov. Cuomo's bill expands abortion rights. This is not the case. By aligning state and federal law, women and their doctors will be assured that in New York, women's health is a medical issue that will be managed in accordance with medical standards, not ideological ones.
I urge all who support the New York Women's Equality Bill to write immediately to their state representatives.

RALEIGH — Police on Sunday added more than a dozen felony charges to their case against a St. Augustine's University student who they say passed counterfeit $50 bills at area Target stores.
Brian Keith Moore, 21, was scheduled to be in court Monday to face the new allegations.
He was being held in the Wake County Detention Center when police filed new arrest warrants Sunday night.
Some of the new charges push the case back into February after earlier charges against Moore and Kyree Reginald Easter of Wilmington involved visits to Target stores only in April.
The warrants filed Sunday say Moore went to Targets on Feb. 4, 5, 13, 15 and 16, and April 12 and 16 to pass phony $50 bills.
The stores involved in the charges were 4841 Grove Barton Road, 7900 Old Wake Forest Road and 4191 The Circle at North Hills, the warrants say.
Altogether, the warrants filed Sunday cite nine counts of possessing a counterfeit instrument, 10 counts of obtaining property by false pretenses and two counts of conspiracy with Easter.
Last week, police charged Moore with two counts of forgery, three counts of obtaining property by false pretense and one count of uttering a forged instrument, arrest records show.
Raleigh police also filed new charges against Easter on Sunday, saying he bought a $100 iTunes card with two phony $50s at the North Hills store on April 6 and two cards with four bills on April 10.
Tuesday morning, Wake Forest police had searched Moore's suite in Lynch Hall at 1315 Oakwood Ave in connection with the case against Easter, who already was accused of passing phony $50s to buy iTunes cards at Target stores in Wake Forest and Raleigh.
A search warrant said the plan was to return the cards for a refund, getting legitimate money, and that Easter said he got $40 for each successful purchase and refund.
Sunday's charges allege that until Feb. 16, Moore was using a single $50 bill and "redeeming U.S. currency from the transaction."
That day, the charges first mention the iTunes cards.
Moore was being held Monday on a total bail of $325,000.
Easter's total bail stood at $310,100.
