Sen. Alexander suggestions to ease budget woes
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The $85 billion in federal spending cuts that starting kicking in Friday could be here to stay.
Tennessee U.S. Senator Lamar Alexander says these budget cuts can still be fixed if the president leads.
"He could suggest that we spread it out over a discretionary part of the budget, that'd be a 2 percent cut. He could suggest we spread it over a whole budget -- that'd be a 7 percent cut. We could spread it over a whole budget. That'd be a 2 percent cut," Alexander said.
Lawmakers were unable to come to an agreement to prevent the deep spending cuts before the March 1 deadline.
Senator Alexander suggests, "We could do what Senator Corker and I have done -- a trillion dollar reduction in spending increases on mandatory spending. It would make the program solvent and lower the possibility of a debt we can't pay. But [President Obama] is doing none of that."
Budget talks are expected to continue on Capitol Hill, but so far no one is offering a specific proposal to roll back those cuts.

Stores a lot, Falls apart
by Disappointed from VT | March 29, 2009
We bought the Rodeo in 2003 for a great price from a dealership that was getting out of the Isuzu business. That should have been our first clue. The car gets driven a lot, but does not get driven to excess, does not get driven "off-road," or in any manner that would be damaging. If anything, the Corolla I bought a few months before this does; that's the car we take on long trips because the MPG on the Isuzu stinks. A lot of little things have had to be replaced on the Isuzu in the 6 years we've had it. Compared to my Corolla, which has only had to have a few belts replaced. My biggest concern, though, is the rust. The rear windshield wiper looks like it's going to rust completely off any day now. When you open the back hatch window, the arms are shockingly rusted, particularly for an interior piece. I guess that area wasn't designed very well. And yesterday the lock mechanism on the back door no longer works. That's right kids, our SUV now has a permanently unlocked door. It seems like there's just always SOMETHING on this vehicle that needs to be fixed. We're going to sell this thing for scrap metal and buy a Toyota.

Great SUV for the family
by R Mac from Winston-Salem, NC | October 28, 2008
My wife and I purchased our Rodeo in 2006 after our first baby was born. It has been an outstanding car. We have only replaced tires and brakes. It does have a slight rattle of the heat shield on the muffler, but that doesn't affect driveability or performance. My only complaint is that bumps tend to make the Rodeo move around a bit and feel slightly unstable. The 6 disc in dash cd changer and steering wheel radio controls have been nice, but the stereo has recently decided to die, and only allow us to play CD #5. Oddly enough, its a CD neither my wife nor I really like that much. I don't think this is a common issue with the Rodeo. The 4 wheel drive works nice, and has come in handy during a few family camping trips. I wouldn't take it on a baja adventure, but I have taken it down a trail or two with no complaints. Plenty of cargo space for everything that comes with a newborn when travling, and plenty of seating capcity for our family to grow.

My Rodeo is an outstanding family vehicle!
by SUV crazy from Fort Sill, Ok | November 26, 2007
Everything about the 2003 Isuzu Rodeo is great. Power is the key under the hood, also storage of personel equipment is great. I play Softball and I Golf and I am able to store all my sporting equipment in my Rodeo without taking away space for seating. This vehicle is made for the average family that loves to go hunting, camping, shopping, sporting, or just a Sunday picnic.

on October 5, 2012 - 12:13 AM
Exhibit No. 1 for why fantasy football can be tough to predict can be found in Cincinnati.
It's there that quarterback Andy Dalton and wide receiver A.J. Green are on the verge of fantasy stardom.
Green may already be there. He leads standard scoring ESPN leagues with 60 points in the first four games, thanks to 428 yards and three touchdowns. He's scored touchdowns the last three weeks.
The bigger surprise is Dalton, the second-year quarterback out of TCU. He's thrown for 890 yards and eight touchdowns in the last three weeks, putting up at least 20 points in each of those games. Dalton this week gets to face a Miami Dolphins' defense that ranks 30th in the NFL against the pass.
If he's not already, Dalton should be in fantasy starting lineups moving forward.
Here are a few other players who have exceeded their expectations heading into the 2012 season, and who you can start to trust in your starting lineup.
• Robert Griffin III, QB, Washington: He's putting up a Cam Newton-like rookie season for the Redskins. Speaking of Newton, he produced 30 fantasy points against Atlanta last week, Griffin's opponent Sunday. With 99 points, Griffin is the highest-scoring fantasy player through the first month of the season. Plus, he's got a nickname that rolls off the tongue.
• Kevin Kolb, QB, Arizona: Considering he was a backup to start the season, Kolb might be the biggest fantasy surprise. Last week against Miami, he had 324 yards and three touchdowns. His fantasy points have increased in his last three starts. Kolb and the Cardinals played Thursday night against St. Louis, so they get more than a week to prepare for their next game, when Buffalo visits. He's owned in only 16 percent of ESPN leagues, and is a good sleeper option for Week Six.
• Alfred Morris, RB, Washington: The rookie has earned the trust of coach Mike Shanahan, getting at least 16 carries in each of his first four games. He's produced, too, with 376 yards and four touchdowns. That makes him the fifth-highest scoring fantasy back. Sunday's opponent, the Falcons, rank 29th against the run, so keep riding the rookie.
• Jackie Battle, RB, San Diego: He's owned in just 44 percent of leagues, but an important trend could force that number to go up soon. Battle has nine carries and three touchdowns from the 5-yard line or closer in three games this week. That's pretty strong evidence he's going to get those chances over fellow Chargers running back Ryan Mathews.
• Brian Hartline, WR, Miami: He's got an NFL-leading 455 yards, thanks in large part to a 253-yard effort in Week Four against Arizona, but has shown to be more than a one-week wonder. Rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill has targeted Hartline 48 times this season, the second-most in the NFL.
Analyzing the Bills
Is there a tougher call to make in fantasy than Ryan Fitzpatrick? The Bills' quarterback is up to seventh in fantasy scoring at his position, but is almost impossible to trust. Against a dominant 49ers' defense, I'd sit him.
The same goes for running backs Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller, who are each other's own worst enemy when it comes to fantasy points. Coach Chan Gailey's rotation also makes it harder for either player to get into a rhythm and have a big game.
Receiver Stevie Johnson was targeted 10 times by Fitzpatrick last week, but came up with only two catches. Those two haven't seemed on the same page this season, and the numbers back that up. In his weekly ESPN column this week, Matthew Berry reported that among the 75 quarterback-wide receiver combinations with at least 20 targets this year, Fitzpatrick and Johnson have the lowest completion percentage.
I do like tight end Scott Chandler, who has four touchdown catches this year, especially if he can get matched up against former Bills safety Donte Whitner.
On the San Francisco side, tight end Vernon Davis is an elite must-start player every week.
Quarterback Alex Smith doesn't do much to excite fantasy owners, while the 49ers also don't have a wide receiver in the top 60 in fantasy scoring. If you're desperate, though, Michael Crabtree would be the one to start.
At running back, Frank Gore owners should be celebrating. The Bills did give up 243 rushing yards last week. Gore is a must start, don't worry about the presence of Brandon Jacobs, who's expected to play.
Bye week: Dallas, Detroit, Oakland, Tampa Bay.

Little rocket
by MorpheusRS from North Jersey | October 5, 2011
I have to take my hat off to BMW, the car, despite being small, very roughly sprung and not too powerful in the low rpm range, is a true racer at heart. It handles like I never imagined a car could, it gets good gas mileage for the power it puts down, and it is very fast once you pass the 4K rpm mark. The interior is very minimalistic, yet luxurious at the same time. the exterior styling is aggressive and the lines flow very well. The engine is a gem and the brakes are truly supreme. My only gripe is the roughness over bumps, but that is a price we have to pay for telepathic handling. It has been very reliable over 5 years of ownership, and NOTHING needed to be changed besides the usual: oil and filters, air filter, tires, brake and coolant fluid, and brake pads. The clutch is an original unit and performs flawlessly after 45K miles! Overall I am very very satisfied with the car.

Slightly modified now....but still a Z4M
by Supercharged Z4M from San Jose, CA | May 4, 2010
I too bought mine from a dealer new but a year old and saved about $10k off sticker. This car introduced me to tracking and now have made many changes enhancing the overall original M configuration. Starting with bigger brakes, wheels, tires, coilovers, strut supports, exhaust and finally supercharger now to 480+ horspower. I sometimes really question if I had left it all alone I would have had just as much fun, I think the answer is YES. The car is very capable right out of the box and performs admirably with other comparable cars with much more preparation for track. I never had one hick-up with stock configuration, but I was looking for something to compete with 911 turbos...I got there. The shifter could be a bit better, but trans has not been a problem even with a 50% increase in HP. The S54 engine is very robust and can be driven like it was meant to. The car just tends to be fun. If you want to go to anything but Autocross events with BMW clubs, better opt for the coup. Also it is better for track as well, little safer, but I still track my Rdster a lot.

The last true M car
by M driver from | May 3, 2010
With the high-revving naturally aspirated S54 inline-6 motor, this is the last BMW M car that hasn't gone to a V8/V10 or forced-induction. The S54 is a true piece of engineering art and was rightfully awarded the "Best 3-4L Engine" title from 2001-2006. By the time the Z4M was introduced (2006) the teething issues from the S54 had all been worked out, so reliability has been much better then what you'd expect. Keep in mind, it is still a high-strung performance motor and maintenance is crucial. M cars are not cheap. The car can be civil when driven around town, but hints at it's true nature. You can't help but blip the throttle while sitting at a light. It's raw, twitchy, rough, unapologetic, and wants to be driven at 12 out of 10. The harder you drive it, the more rewarding it is. Best suited for the track of twisty mountain roads vs the rush-hour grind. BMW built a true sports car here. Definitely a collector car in the making!

Z4M: Performance benchmark
by 330indy from Indianapolis | April 30, 2010
This car was the deal of the decade for me, as I found the untitled 2006 car at a dealer in Feb. 2008 with full warranty for 15k off the 57k sticker price, with only 100 miles on it. I told my wife: "I will regret this for a long time if I don't jump on this deal!" She made me promise not to ask for a Porsche in another five years or so.... deal! And, as a bonus I found the exact color combo I always wanted, silver gray, black leather, aluminum trim, no navigation! I mainly bought the car as it's the last production model BMW containing the incredible S54B32 naturally aspirated M motor with a 6 speed manual gearbox. Now most BMWs use turbos; been there, and don't want the high complexity and maintenance that goes with a turbo engine. The M also has a limited slip diff, as all M's come equipped, to put the 330 horses to the ground. The M is big fun to drive, makes you want to do bad stuff, handles like it's on rails, is also quite comfortable and makes you feel like you're in a race car especially when the top is down and you can hear and feel the engine. I could not otherwise afford it, and will never drop 50k+ / full retail price for a two seater. But ... I bought this M Roadster for the price of a standard Z4! This one is a keeper, and I highly recommend it if you can find a well-cared-for pre-owned car. I think it will become a classic. Oh yes, it also has a dipstick! cool :)

I finished up all my writing work for the morning, then went to the grocery store and moseyed (and I mean moseyed taking my sweet time) down each aisle. Not only did I have the whole cart to myself, I had no need to hurry back home. I gladly checked my email on my phone while I got in the slowest checkout line ever. I didn't mind.
I went to Starbucks. Made a ginormous pot of tortilla soup, like, I had to buy extra containers to store it all. Listened to Pandora (Phil Wickham radio) and then after a while was all wait a second and I turned the music off and just soaked in the quiet for hours. I mopped the floors. Cleaned a bathroom. Straightened stuff. Did some laundry, dreamed of a stacked washer dryer.
It doesn't seem like much for all that time, but I have lofty goals for next Monday. I'm talking clearing out the closets and finally organizing all the kids' outgrown clothes and figuring out what they need for fall. I might never return.
Oh, so, speaking of work. Here's some worth-while things I've written and would love for you to check out, share, do with what you want...

Got 160 points yesterday. 20 (Jan survery) + 100 (Apocalyptic Rewards) + 40 (2% of 2600 = 52 points, doesn't add up).
I don't think the January survey points would be deposited yet. The MyAchievements rebate and Apocalyptic rewards would be dated 12/31 and get counted, but the January survey would be dated 1/1 and have to wait. So the 160 you got fits. The MyAchievements rebates have appeared to get rounded up to the nearest 10, so that 52 became 60.

Tiny Houses in Seattle
This is a guest post from Derek "Deek" Diedricksen, our newest Tumbleweed Tiny House workshop host. This post originally appeared on Deek's blog.Again, the Tumbleweed Tiny House Co's Workshop in Seattle was killer! "All Killer, No Filler"- and aside from being brought out there to guest speak for a Q&A session, I had four days/night to hang out with some really cool, likeminded, tiny house obsessed people. One of the people I met was Sharon Read from Seattletinyhomes.com, who is great, as is her home one wheels.Check out some of these photos I snapped during this workshop's field trip on day one.
While out in Seattle, I also shot FOUR episodes (with Christopher Smith from "Tiny: The Movie") of my show "Tiny Yellow House" at some CRAZY locales (built by some equally crazy people). I took a ton of photos as well- some of which I'm collecting for Book #2.
My book "Humble Homes, Simple Shacks" has done so well, the publisher is already asking for another. If you haven't checked it out, its $11.29 on Amazon or better yet, buy it off a local independent store. I'm hosting a few workshops for Tumbleweed coming up soon!

The pop culture killers have typically seen just about every movie you've ever heard of and know all the qoutes. They will worship the sources of thier material as if they were some religious book. Deeply offended when criticised, and will use insults from thier movie collection.

Steve Lewis/Durango Herald Ignacio head coach Justa Whitt turned to defense to wrap up the Bobcats� victory over Bloomfield in Tuesday night�s season opener. Whitt, an assistant for the last three years, took over as the head coach this season.
Steve Lewis/Durango Herald Ignacio head coach Justa Whitt turned to defense to wrap up the Bobcats� victory over Bloomfield in Tuesday night�s season opener. Whitt, an assistant for the last three years, took over as the head coach this season.
IGNACIO � When the Ignacio Bobcats needed something to settle their nerves in Tuesday night�s season opener, they turned to a familiar remedy � defense.
The Ignacio High School girls basketball team, with a fourth-quarter surge fueled by defensive pressure, turned back pesky Bloomfield 49-34 in the first game under new head coach Justa Whitt.
�I told the girls, �Good job. Way to get that first win. Way to work hard,�� Whitt said after the Bobcats� victory.
�We�ve got some kinks to work out, but overall we did well,� said Whitt, who credited new assistant coach Bri Simbeck with a key defensive adjustment late in the game.
After leading by 10 to 12 points for three-plus quarters, Ignacio saw its lead shrink to 37-30 when Broomfield�s Jasmine Sappington turned a putback basket into a three-point play with 6 minutes, 27 seconds to play in the fourth quarter.
�My assistant suggested we press until we (extended the lead),� Whitt said of Simbeck, a former player at Durango High School and Regis University.
The defensive pressure, combined with relentless rebounding on the offensive glass by Michelle Simmons, Cloe Seibel, Mariah Vigil and Val Armstrong, produced a quick 10-0 run for Ignacio.
Pam Cotton started the run with a long 2-pointer.
Ellie Seibel followed with a 3-pointer from the left side after an IHS steal.
Armstrong canned a free throw, and Simmons hit a putback, and the Ignacio Bobcats rolled on to the final 15-point win over the Bloomfield Bobcats (0-2).
�They stepped it up (in the fourth quarter),� Whitt said after the Ignacio girls closed with 16 points in the final eight minutes.
They led 33-23 at halftime.
�We were getting some good looks. But I want us to execute much better than we did,� Whitt said. �We didn�t get enough rotation of the ball (around the Bloomfield zone defense).�
Ignacio�s offense improved when the defensive intensity increased.
�I think we were just nervous,� Simmons said after battling foul trouble in the season opener.
�We played like we never played before ... I think it was just nerves,� she said.
Simmons had a game-high 12 rebounds with 10 points for a double-double to start her senior season.
�We�ve been playing together forever. We know how to do everything,� Simmons said.
She, too, said the defensive pressure late proved the difference against Bloomfield.
�Defense wins our games ... that�s what (coach Whitt) says. That�s the main thing,� said Simmons, daughter of Kelley Herrera.
�Oh yes, we were very nervous,� said senior Pam Cotton, who led IHS with 14 points.
�We ... had a little bit more defense (in the fourth quarter),� said Cotton, daughter of Fred and Jennifer Cotton.
�We�ve got to work on some stuff, but ... we�re glad we got our win.�
Vigil and Cloe Seibel added six points each for Ignacio (1-0).
IHS will play Aztec at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, the opening round of the Shiprock Tournament.

Throes of Democracy
The American Civil War Era, 1829-1877
Walter A. Mcdougall
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
"And then there came a day of fire!" From its shocking curtain-raiser—the conflagration that consumed Lower Manhattan in 1835—to the climactic centennial year of 1876, when Americans staged a corrupt, deadlocked presidential campaign (fought out in Florida), Walter A. McDougall's Throes of Democracy: The American Civil War Era, 1829-1877 throws off sparks like a flywheel. This eagerly awaited sequel to Freedom Just Around the Corner: A New American History, 1585-1828 carries the saga of the American people's continuous self-reinvention from the inauguration of President Andrew Jackson through the eras of Manifest Destiny, Civil War, and Reconstruction, America's first failed crusade to put "freedom on the march" through regime change and nation building.
But Throes of Democracy is much more than a political history. Here, for the first time, is the American epic as lived by Germans and Irish, Catholics and Jews, as well as people of British Protestant and African American stock; an epic defined as much by folks in Wisconsin, Kansas, and Texas as by those in Massachusetts, New York, and Virginia; an epic in which Mormon prophet Joseph Smith, showman P. T. Barnum, and circus clown Dan Rice figure as prominently as Herman Melville, Walt Whitman, and Henry Ward Beecher; an epic in which railroad management and land speculation prove as gripping as Indian wars. Walter A. McDougall's zesty, irreverent narrative says something new, shrewd, ironic, or funny about almost everything as it reveals our national penchant for pretense—a predilection that explains both the periodic throes of democracy and the perennial resilience of the United States.

Bakersfield College helps students register
Students preparing for summer and fall classes get help from advisors at BC
Gary: Who do these candidates need to appeal to anyway? I think most Americans realize that this is a show for the richest political donors, the folks who slurp up the craziness because they know that's a great tool for distracting voters from the real issues - political and economic reform. Look, the government policies of the last 35 years have been tailored to the preferences of the economically advantaged, and the folks who reside in the bottom 99% have nothing in common with the people who occupy the White House and Congress. You can read this stuff in Vanderbilt U professor Larry Bartels book "Unequal Democracy" or Princeton U professor Martin Gilens "Affluence and Influence" or Yale U professor Jacob Hacker's book "Winner take all politics." So, it's out there if you want to educate yourselves and vote for reform, or we can continue down the path to apathy, ignorance and a failing political state!

An Asshole is somebody that works to better himself sometimes at the expense of other, usually the people who deserve to be hurt. He is generally liked by everybody in his presence no matter what he does. Although the most important person to an Asshole is himself, he does care about other things and people. Although he generally betters himself at the expense of others he can sometimes help other people in the process which can draw more positive attention to himself. Not to be confused with a douche-bag or a dick, a douche-bag is somebody that cares ONLY for himself and a dick is somebody that doesn't care for anyone.
Denis Leary: An Asshole who gains the admiration of millions by saying what he wants and hurting the people who deserve it. But he still is able to have a charity for fireman, drawing positive attention to himself.

The worst kind of person. You cannot fully construct a meaning that fully encompasses what this vicious insult means. If you're an asshole, you are disgusting, loathesome, vile, distasteful, wrathful, belligerent, agoraphobic, and more. Assholes are human fecal matter. They are the lowest of the low. They transcend all forms of immorality. It is the very worst of insults; to be called an asshole is to have your very soul ripped apart and shat on. I say that the word "asshole" is the worst cussword of the english language, worst than fuck, shit, and cunt combined.

No reason for insurers to cover contraception
I'm writing in response to Froma Harrop's Jan. 31 column wherein she comments that she can't wait for the year 2040 because we won't be talking about birth control due to its broad acceptance. Well, why are we talking about it so much now? Because it's being jammed down our throats by our government.
For the sake of discussion, let's take the religious aspect out of the Health and Human Services mandate. Why should everyone buying heath care insurance pay for someone to have sex? If people want contraception coverage for an optional activity, let them pay for it themselves. In contrast, if the elderly or sick need help paying for essential medication to keep them alive, shouldn't we help pay for this before we pay for contraception? Should we wait for these people to eat pet food or starve?
How about dental coverage? Studies have shown that people who have adequate dental coverage are healthier and have less chance of heart problems. Shouldn't we help pay for this before we pay for contraception? How about optical coverage? It's an essential need for people to see in order to perform any function necessary for a normal life. Shouldn't we help pay for this before we pay for contraception?
People, we have our priorities messed up. The majority of those who need contraception can afford it themselves. If they can't, they should abstain or go to some agency where they can obtain it for free. There's no need for the public to fund this in any manner. Let's use the HHS mandate to help those in need instead of funding wants. We can't afford it all. Let's let the users of the health care plan vote on the needs they want covered instead of letting the government decide what's best for us.
John Daigler

New Riegel
New Riegel Elementary School students visited the residents of Elmwood, Autumnwood and St. Francis nursing homes in Tiffin.

St. Wendelin Elementary Leadership, in conjunction with "Caring for Kids," sponsored a mitten tree in the school lobby where students, staff, faculty, parents and visitors were asked to bring in mittens, gloves and hats for the adopted families. A giving tree was adorned with paper ornaments listing toys a child requested as Christmas gifts. Faculty, staff, parents and students took the ornaments and purchased gifts for the children. National Honor Society students planned to collect monetary donations after Masses at St. Wendelin Catholic Church to purchase potatoes and ham and to supplement each of the Christmas baskets.
The school also collected new and gently worn coats that were donated to the "Coats for Christmas" program of Hancock County. Third-graders conducted a food drive for Fostoria's Sharing Kitchen.
Tiffin City Schools staff, administrators and the board of education had its sixth annual holiday giving project, and the drive brought in $1,864.07. The money allowed for the purchase of 254 turkeys that were donated to The Salvation Army. An additional $100 was donated to First Call for Help.
Staff, students and families at Lincoln Elementary School helped decorate the Christmas tree in the lobby of the school with donated hats, mittens and gloves, and the school conducted a canned food drive. All the donations - including more than 50 hats, mittens, gloves and scarves and more than 100 non-perishable food items - were to be given to The Salvation Army.
At Upper Sandusky Middle School, the staff adopted several Angel Tree families, and students and staff conducted a peanut butter drive because food pantries in the community were running short on the product due to the rising cost of peanuts. Also, several teachers and students planned to staff The Salvation Army kettles at local stores.

Huge crack closes lanes on West Gate Bridge
A giant crack on the West Gate Bridge is not a structural problem and is a likely to be a result of last week's heatwave, Vicroads says. All lanes should be reopen by tomorrow morning's peak.
Motorists are battling their way over the West Gate Bridge after a giant crack was discovered on the surface on Monday afternoon.
Vicroads closed two inbound lanes of the bridge near Williamstown Road until about 3.30pm and reopened them for peak hour, with a reduced speed of 60kmh. The two lanes will be closed again for repairs at 8pm but will reopen for Tuesday's morning peak.
VicRoads acting chief executive, Peter Todd, said the crack was "purely cosmetic", and most likely the result of last week's extreme heatwave.
Mr Todd told 3AW Fairfax Radio the crack had "no safety risk" to the bridge.
"It may well be with the extreme heat and a steel bridge expanding in that heat and then contracting as it's cooled down may well have created this problem," he said.
"There's no evidence of any structural damage at all."
He said the surface cracking in lanes one and two was identified on a steel section inbound during a daily routine inspection of the bridge.
"An immediate more detailed inspection from inside the bridge identified that there was no structural defect, but just a cosmetic problem involving the cracking of the bitumen," Mr Todd said.
"The cause is believed to be a result of last week's extreme heat causing the waterproof membranes underneath the asphalt to separate."
TRAFFIC: Large crack has appeared across two inbound lanes of the #Westgate Bridge. @VicRoads in attendance. #9News pic.twitter.com/QPqn70Sgh5 — Nine News Melbourne (@9newsmelb)
January 20, 2014
In August 2007, the Victorian Government announced a $240 million plan to identify and eliminate structural weaknesses in the bridge, prompted by the collapse of the Mississippi bridge in the US city of Minneapolis.
Despite these weaknesses, and concerns the bridge was dealing with traffic loads it was not designed for, it was announced in 2008 that the bridge would be widened from four lanes to five in both directions.
In 2011, the new lanes were opened and accompanied by strengthening works in the bridge that took two years to complete.
Each day it carries up to 160,000 vehicles, including 24,000 trucks, according to VicRoads.

Celebrity Central / Top 25 Celebs
Emma Stone
- 1988
Raising Arizona
Emily Jean Stone is born to Jeff and Krista Stone, co-owners of a golf course. "From the time I was 4, I just knew that I wanted to act," she tells the Chicago Sun-Times. Her dad, a film buff, weans her on classic comedies such as his favorite, The Jerk, starring Steve Martin. "I wasn't really a tomboy, but I was loud. And bossy," she tells W magazine. "I wanted to be Steve Martin. Or John Candy."
- 2000
Theater Geek
While at the all-girls Catholic school Xavier College Prep, Stone regularly performs improv comedy as part of the local Valley Youth Theatre in Phoenix. By age 12, Stone convinces her parents to home-school her so that she can go on auditions. Her tactic to convince them? "I made a foam-board presentation," she explains to PEOPLE.
- 2003
City of Lost Roles
Accompanied by her mother, Stone, 15, heads to Los Angeles to pursue acting. "I went up for every single show on the Disney Channel and auditioned to play the daughter on every single sitcom," she reveals. "I ended up getting none."
- 2004-2005
Reality Check
Stone finally gets a minor break: She's selected to appear on the VH1 reality show In Search of the Partridge Family, which auditions contestants for an update of the '70s singing-family series. Stone ultimately wins the role of daughter Laurie, but the show never makes it past a pilot. "It was ridiculous, I will say now," she tells the Arizona Republic. "But it introduced me to some…important people."
- 2006
Varsity Blues
Stone scores modest parts on shows such as Malcolm in the Middle before landing a regular role on FOX's short-lived series, Drive. Around the same time, she also tries out for NBC's Heroes. "It was down to the end, and I went in after Hayden Panettiere left the room," she recalls of auditioning for the role of the indestructible cheerleader. "As I passed her, I knew she had the part. I was so bummed out, but a week later, I got cast in Superbad."
- 2007
'Bad' to the Bone
Stone steals the show as Jules, the object of Jonah Hill's affection in the bromantic comedy Superbad. The newcomer wins accolades for being "as quirky and interesting as the boys," says the San Francisco Chronicle. The film grosses an impressive $121 million-plus at the box office.
- 2008-2009
On the Move
On the heels of Superbad, Stone appears in The Rocker, alongside The Office's Rainn Wilson and Teddy Geiger, whom she begins dating off screen. The romance soon fizzles, but Stone continues making her mark in The House Bunny and the blockbuster flick Zombieland, with Woody Harrelson.
- 2010
'A' List
After appearing alongside It girls Amanda Seyfried and Kristen Stewart on the cover of Vanity Fair's Young Hollywood issue, Stone lands her first lead role in the hit comedy, Easy A. Film critic Roger Ebert says the film "takes the familiar but underrated Emma Stone and makes her, I believe, a star." She receives a Golden Globe nomination for playing Olive, a high school student who lies about losing her virginity.
Live from New York…
Stone fulfills a childhood fantasy, hosting Saturday Night Live. "It's the greatest week of my life," Stone, 21, tells The Hollywood Reporter during rehearsals. "This is my biggest dream. This alone…this week."
- 2011
Spinning Her Web
Stone beats out a slew of young actresses for the role of Peter Parker's love interest Gwen Stacy in 2012's The Amazing Spider-Man. "She's one of the most spirited people I've ever met and just incredible fun to be around," leading man Andrew Garfield gushes to PEOPLE, feeding into reports that the costars are an item. "On top of which, she's beautiful and talented and kind of impossible to dream up."

As a mentally disturbed woman with a pistol took aim outside Ashley Hall in early February, school administrator Mary Schweers stepped into the line of fire and looked down the .22-caliber barrel.
Alice Boland pulled the trigger, according to the police, but the gun didn't go off. She had neglected to load a cartridge into its chamber.
But if Schweers hadn't confronted her, Boland might have chambered a round and shot some of the children that the official shielded at the downtown Charleston private school.
That's the account state Rep. Leon Stavrinakis, D-Charleston, gave in nominating Schweers for the Order of the Palmetto. He thought Schweers fit the bill for South Carolina's highest civilian honor, which is designated for recipients who display lifetime achievement with statewide impact.
There's no telling, Stavrinakis said, what lifetimes of achievement might have been foiled if Schweers hadn't acted.
"The lasting impact will also be felt in the legislation this inspired," Stavrinakis said of a new state law meant to make it more difficult for people like Boland to buy a firearm. "It will be felt in those kids' lives when they go on to accomplish great things."
But Gov. Nikki Haley's office disagreed. Though the order can be awarded to multiple recipients yearly, Stavrinakis' nomination was denied. Instead, Schweers was given a certificate.
In front of a sold-out crowd of 80,250 University of South Carolina football fans Saturday, Haley bestowed the order on Gamecocks women's basketball coach Dawn Staley.
During news conference Monday at the College of Charleston, Haley told reporters that a certificate was the appropriate way to acknowledge Schweers' bravery. But the governor said pitting Schweers and Staley, an Olympic gold medalist, against each other was a "tasteless" move by Stavrinakis.
"Those are two very great individuals of merit that are going to receive their due," Haley said. "We should all celebrate both of them instead of comparing the two."
Stavrinakis was at the football game when Staley was honored. Saying he was "floored" by the revelation, he took to Twitter and expressed his displeasure with the governor's choice. The resulting feud had representatives of each side alleging that the award was being used as a political ploy to garner support from voters.
In his Twitter posts, Stavrinakis said Staley deserved the honor too. But he wondered why the order was given to a sports coach and not a woman "who risked her life to save (elementary) students from death."
"I guess Mary can't bring 80,000 folks into a stadium to see" the governor, Stavrinakis wrote. "Yes I am steamed now."
Award standards
South Carolina governors have been giving out the Order of the Palmetto — profusely, at times — since John West's administration in 1971.
In 1999, though, Gov. Jim Hodges aimed to reform the award by designating panelists to determine who should be honored. Hodges said at the time that he was concerned about the order's political use.
That came after more than 700 orders were distributed during Gov. David Beasley's four-year tenure. Beasley often gave them to retiring legislators or politicians who lost their elections.
On Monday, Haley said each governor has had different standards. She said that she employs a committee which reviews applications, but that she gives the final word.
Many people who have risked their lives and made sacrifices for others, she said, have instead been given certificates honoring their actions.
"We never have too many people we can acknowledge," she said. "But we acknowledge everybody we can whenever we see goodness coming out of somebody."
Honorees from the Charleston area during recent years have included Jayne Ellicott, who was lauded for her work as principal of Ashley River Creative Arts Elementary, and Dr. M. Elizabeth Ralston, the founding director of the Dee Norton Lowcountry Children's Center.
Schweers has not spoken publicly about her role in the ordeal earlier this year that captured national headlines and prompted a closer look at the mentally ill and firearms.
But in an email Monday, Schweers said she was "humbled and honored" to be recognized for her actions that day. She congratulated Staley for receiving the Order of the Palmetto and for the coach's "contributions to the state."
Because of Ashley Hall employees and Charleston police officers, "the situation last February was resolved peacefully," Schweers said. "I am happy to be part of the strong Charleston community."
Among other charges, Boland is accused in the attempted murder of Schweers. She's also charged with pointing her gun at another school faculty member.
The Beaufort County resident, now 29, also faces federal counts relating to her purchase of the gun days before the incident. She had a past arrest for threatening to kill the president and was treated for schizophrenia — a history that federal authorities said made it illegal for her to buy a firearm.
Boland remained Monday at Federal Medical Carswell, a prison facility in Fort Worth, Texas, that specializes in treating female inmates with mental health problems.
Who's 'deserving'?
Boland's encounter with school officials and students at Ashley Hall inspired state and federal legislation to require the reporting of mental health data and a database of the mentally ill when it comes to gun purchases. While a bill by Sen. Lindsay Graham failed in Washington, Stavrinakis' measure passed in Columbia and was later signed into law.
Stavrinakis said honoring Schweers would add to the positive legacy of what nearly was a tragedy. He thought Schweers would be a shoo-in for the Order of the Palmetto, he said.
Last week, though, he got word to the contrary from Haley's office.
He hadn't planned to make an issue of it, he said, until he saw Haley decked out in Gamecocks regalia during the ceremony honoring Staley at Saturday's football game against the University of Florida.
After Stavrinakis posted on Twitter, he clarified that Staley was a "fine, deserving person."
But the governor's spokesman, Doug Mayer, said Stavrinakis should be ashamed of "diminishing the accomplishments of Coach Staley, a three-time Olympic gold medalist, member of the Basketball Hall of Fame and wonderful South Carolinian."
Stavrinakis later said in an interview that he hadn't intended to portray the award as a competition between Staley and Schweers. He urged Haley to change her mind.
"This is about her," Stavrinakis said of Schweers. "How many lives did she save that day? I can go down the list of deserving people who have gotten this award, but not many are more deserving than her."

"Small card with soft colors—perfect. Text easy to customize and to place. Wanted an 'I Wish for You...' Card for baby shower, and this fit the bill perfectly."
"I purchased these as thank yous for my bridal shower. I really like the thickness. I wrote with a super fine Sharpie and it did not bleed through. It is small, so keep that in mind. The website does say the size, but I managed to skip that important detail. I purchased the matching address labels and I spent extra on the nicer envelopes. Excellent design and quality. Highly recommend!"
"I loved that there were thank you cards that matched the invitation that I chose, however, I would have preferred to have a picture uploaded with it, and this particular invitation/thank you card set doesn't allow you to have a picture"
"These cards are really cute and fun! I love the pink, it is a great shade! These could be for a child or grown up and I love the scalloped edges! Makes them fun!"
"I love the elegant design with flowers that appear almost hand-painted in water colors on both sides and the texture of the paper is very nice. The teal color is my favorite and appropriate for either male or female receivers."

Paul Wilson of Cross was one of seven masons who competed Friday for the honor of being named The Carolinas Best Bricklayer.
Masonry teams from across the southeastern U.S. put their skill, speed and stamina to the test during the Spec Mix Bricklayer 500 Carolina Regional held at Tideland Equipment and Supply Company in North Charleston. For the event, teams comprised of a mason and one tender had one hour to construct a brick wall that was then judge based on the number of bricks laid and quality.
Wilson has been a mason for 40 years, but Friday marked the first time he has competed in a Bricklayer 500 competition.
Normally I focus more on quality than speed, but this is something different and I enjoyed it, said Wilson, owner of Wilson and Sons Masonry. Im always looking for something different.
He was introduced to masonry work during a Cross High School vocational class and knew he had found his calling.
Its challenging, which I love, and you get to create pieces of art, which I love, Wilson said.
He has laid brick all across the greater Charleston area. Burke and Fort Dorchester high schools are two of the more public facilities that feature his work.
According to him, the key to good craftsmanship starts at the bottom.
Its all in the wrist and making sure you get a good start, he said. If you start a job right then it is going to end up right. Get the foundation laid out and level and everything else is easy.
Tender Larry Bennett aided Wilson in the competition. While Wilson was busy spreading mix with his trowel and meticulously putting the bricks in place, Bennett kept a fresh supply of mix available and inspected the bricks to help ensure their wall had the fewest possible flaws.
The partners didnt win the competition, but they can always try again as Spec Mix teams up with companies such as Boral to host 16 regional competitions across the country every year.
This years Carolina Regional champion is Jerry Goodman of Jerry Goodman and Sons Masonry. By claiming the top prize he and tender Heidi Albea earned a trip to Las Vegas where they will compete against teams from the other 15 regions to determine the national winner.
That mason will earn the title Worlds Best Bricklayer, a $10,000 prize and a Ford F-250 XLT Truck.

Vanilla Ice Cream Without the Machine Recipe
Unraveling the mysteries of home cooking through science.
- Rated:
This recipe appears in:The Food Lab: Real Ice Cream Without an Ice Cream Machine
The Secret to No Machine Ice Cream is Here.
About the author: After graduating from MIT, J. Kenji Lopez-Alt spent many years as a chef, recipe developer, writer, and editor in Boston. He now lives in New York with his wife, where he runs a private chef business, KA Cuisine, and co-writes the blog GoodEater.org about sustainable food enjoyment.
- 8 large egg yolks
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
- 2 cups heavy cream
In large bowl or stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, whisk egg yolks, sugar, vanilla, and salt until pale yellow and mixture falls off of whisk in thick ribbons, about 5 minutes. Set aside. Stirring constantly, heat evaporated milk in medium saucepan on stovetop until it comes to a simmer. Slowly add hot milk to egg mixture, whisking constantly, until fully incorporated. Transfer mixture back to saucepan and heat, whisking constantly, to 180°F (it should become thick and custardy). Do not overheat, or eggs will scramble. Chill mixture completely.
Whip 1 cup heavy cream with whisk or in stand mixer until doubled in volume. Add whipped cream to egg mixture and fold with whisk just until no lumps remain. Pour mixture into ice cube trays and freeze for 4 hours, or until solid.
Combine frozen cubes of ice cream (use a spoon or a dull knife to remove them) and remaining heavy cream in food processor and process until smooth, about 30 seconds, scraping down sides and breaking up lumps as necessary during process. Transfer mixture to quart container, and freeze for at least 4 more hours before serving.

Rookie netminder Petr Mrazek made 24 saves to backstop the Griffins (5-4-1-1) to their first home win and improve his personal record to 3-0, marking the third-best debut ever for a Grand Rapids goalie. Only Ty Conklin (2011-12) and Mathieu Chouinard (2000-01) enjoyed better starts (5-0) in a Griffins uniform than Mrazek, who currently ranks third in the AHL in both goals against average (1.30) and save percentage (0.954).
Good stuff!!! Awesome to see the Griffs using him now.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – The Stetson men's tennis team improved to 2-2 on the season with a 7-0 sweep of NAIA member Northwood University on Saturday afternoon.
"I would like to start by thanking Coach Robinson for accepting to play us on such a short notice," Stetson associate head coach Christophe Noblet said after the match. "Overall, every member of the team performed well today and I am glad we got away with a decisive win. It was good preparation for the challenging matches that are coming ahead."
The Hatters began the match by winning two of the three doubles contests. Sophomore Cahit Kapukiran and senior Hans Adrien Riseng won 8-0 at the number one position to start things off. Junior Chester Espie and sophomore Laurynas Antropikas followed with an 8-3 win at number two to clinch the points.
Stetson didn't lose a set all day in singles, winning in straight sets in all six matchups. Kapukiran defeated Alvaro Iturriaga at number two singles, 6-1, 6-0, and freshman Graham Ball won 6-1, 6-0 at number four to give the Hatters a 3-0 advantage.
Antropikas clinched the victory for Stetson when he won 6-0, 6-2 over Niktia Borodatov at the number one position. Sophomore Egor Panyushkin followed up with a 6-0, 6-2 win against Diego Ortega at number six, and Espie topped David Uquillas 6-2, 6-3 at number three to make it 6-0 in favor of the Hatters.
Sophomore Gonzalo Arroyo, a newcomer to the team, put the finishing touches on the sweep with a 6-2, 6-4 win over Ernesto Laborda at number five in his first match of collegiate tennis.
Stetson will continue regular season play on Friday, Feb. 28 when the Hatters host Georgia State at 2:30 p.m. in the first of six straight home contests.

One of the nation's largest medical waste disposal firms has settled with five local public entities among the hundreds across the state that it has been accused of overcharging for its services.
Stericycle, based in Lake Forest, Ill., will pay a total of $2.4 million in compensation to various police and fire departments, rescue squads, schools, jails and hospitals, according to State Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman.
The local entities that will be compensated as a result of the settlement are Wyoming Correctional Facility in Attica, $12,932; the Lancaster Police Department, $8,601; Collins Correctional Facility, $6,311; the Marilla Fire Company, $4,540; and the Buffalo Police Department, $4,107.
According to the State Attorney General's Office, since 2003, Stericycle implemented a plan to charge automated price increases without giving notice to its customers, which is a violation of its contract.
