MATLACHA: Vandals slashed the tires of 12 cars in one night on Matlacha. And as Lee County deputies search for suspects, the victims are left to pay the repair costs.
Deputies say most of the crimes happened off of Velma Street.
Some of the victims faired better than others, only having to replace one tire - while others had to get at least three new ones.
It's a costly replacement for some victims who were in town on vacation.
"It's too bad they don't have anything better to do with their time than just going around creating problems for people," said victim John Shelton.
Residents in the neighborhood say it's extremely uncommon for a rash of crimes like this to happen there.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – With two races already under their belt, the Jacksonville University men's rowing program is prepared to take on one of the world's largest rowing regattas in the Head of the Hooch. Head Coach Montia Rice has five boats competing in the head race which is set to begin on Saturday, Nov. 2 in Chattanooga
Last year, the men's Novice 8 and Championship 8 boats each had second-place finishes, finishing the course with times of 15:44.5 and 15:19.5, respectively. This year, the Dolphins will have two boats in the 5,000 meter Championship 8; one in the Novice 8+, and two in the Championship 4+.
"The guys have been grinding it out for the past couple of months training and not really racing," commented Rice. "I think it's safe to say that we are excited to get out and race against some really good competition. We are much farther along than this time last year, so it will be interesting to see how we stack up with some of the top crews in the country".
12:20 a.m. – Championship 8+

'Love hormone' hope for anorexics
12:44am Thursday 13th March 2014 in National News © Press Association 2014
A hormone naturally released during sex, childbirth and breastfeeding could provide a new treatment for anorexia, according to research.
Oxytocin - dubbed the "love hormone" or the "cuddle chemical" - has been shown to alter anorexics' tendencies to fixate on images of high calorie foods and larger body shapes, one study has shown. A further piece of research has found that the hormone changed anorexic patients' responses to images of angry and disgusted faces.
Research published in the journal Psychoneuroendocrinology revealed that anorexics who were shown images of food and fat body parts reduced their focus on images of food and fat body parts after being given oxytocin using a nasal spray.
The same 31 participants in a study published in the journal PLOS ONE testing their reactions to facial expressions such as anger, disgust and happiness, were shown to be less likely to focus on "disgust" faces. They were also less likely to avoid looking at angry faces.
Prof Youl-Ri Kim, from Inje University in Seoul, South Korea and lead author on both studies, says: "Our research shows that oxytocin reduces patients' unconscious tendencies to focus on food, body shape, and negative emotions such as disgust.
"There is currently a lack of effective pharmacological treatments for anorexia. Our research adds important evidence to the increasing literature on oxytocin treatments for mental illnesses, and hints at the advent of a novel, ground-breaking treatment option for patients with anorexia."
Professor Janet Treasure, of King's College London Institute of Psychiatry and senior author for both studies said: "Patients with anorexia have a range of social difficulties which often start in their early teenage years, before the onset of the illness.
"These social problems, which can result in isolation, may be important in understanding both the onset and maintenance of anorexia. By using oxytocin as a potential treatment for anorexia, we are focusing on some of these underlying problems we see in patients."
She added: "This is early stage research with a small number of participants, but it's hugely exciting to see the potential this treatment could have.
"We need much larger trials, on more diverse populations, before we can start to make a difference to how patients are treated."
Anorexia is one of the leading causes of mental-health related deaths both through physical complications and suicide. Patients often have distorted images of themselves, believing that they are fat when they are not.
As well as problems with food, eating and body shape, patients with anorexia often have social difficulties including anxiety and hypersensitivity to negative emotions.

52 teachers could lose jobs
Original post made on Mar 25, 2011
Read the full story here Web Link posted Friday, March 25, 2011, 10:55 AM
on Mar 25, 2011 at 11:42 am
This is nothing short of sad. At a time where our children are growing up with less morals we need more teachers that are dedicated to the children in the communtiy.
on Mar 25, 2011 at 1:23 pm
I take exception to many aspects of how government conducts business, and believe there is ample opportunity to increase efficiencies in the bureaucracy for cost savings.
However, laying off teachers, with the current methodology in place, risks losing high potential, high performing teachers that are needed to improve education performance in this country.
Cost cutting alone will create new problems, if fundamental change on how teachers are rated and promoted isn't examined. The use of tenure has its advantages, but also presents obstacles in removing teachers that underperform. Systems that remove the incentive to perform, inevitably lead to abuse.
If we truly value education and want to elevate the teaching profession, a competitive salary is a must, and is consistent with how we compensate people for their occupation. If we truly want to enable these teachers to achieve, then we need to recognize and reward good performance, and penalize bad performance.
As it goes at the federal, state and local levels, we need to restart/reset the conversation, from a question as to whether there is enough money to do the job, to how to best utilize the money that we have. Cutting expenditures through layoffs or adding funds through taxes is immaterial, when the mechanism for spending those dollars is broken.
on Mar 25, 2011 at 2:25 pm
This is all just a scare tactic as old as the hills school districts uses to instill fear in the voting public so they approve more tax increases. It happens every year, and this year is no different. Los Altos School District is hardly hurting like other districts. Many will be laid off and hired back. Some won't, and that should be viewed as a savings in a down economy. Just look up past articles.

Local advocacy group 'Eastern NC Stop Human Trafficking Now' tells 9 On Your Side that North Carolina is consistently ranked as one of the top ten states for Human Trafficking in the United States.
Recently, a new law called "Safe Harbor" went into effect that will hopefully change that statistic. Local non-profit Eastern North Carolina Stop Human Trafficking Now's founder, Pam Strickland, lobbied Senators and Representatives to support the bill, and traveled to Raleigh to speak at Senate Committee Hearings in favor of the bill.
Effective October 1, "Safe Harbor" ensures that minors who are exploited by sex traffickers will be rescued and receive services, and not be arrested for prostitution.
In addition to stronger laws, the group believes that more involvement by the community is necessary to stop human trafficking. Eastern NC Stop Human Trafficking Now tells 9 On Your Side that they want to create a community that actively works towards abolishing Human Trafficking locally and globally.
To that end, the group seeks to educate the public at community events like PirateFest and the Uptown Umbrella Market. Representatives sell Fair Trade products and talk to customers about how buying Fair Trade certified goods is human trafficking prevention.
ENC Stop Human Trafficking Now's founder speaks frequently on the ECU and PCC campuses, as well as to professional, church and civic groups.
This week, ENC Stop Human Trafficking Now is creating awareness about the issue of human trafficking in North Carolina by hosting its 5th Annual 5K to Stop Human Trafficking Saturday, October 12 at 8am at the Greenville Town Common.
Online registration is available through midnight Thursday, and on-site registration will be available Saturday morning from 6:30am until 7:45am.
The group says walkers and runners who raise at least $100 will receive a Fair Trade market bag as a thank you gift.
Walkers, runners and their supporters will also have the opportunity to learn more about Fair Trade, and to purchase Fair Trade products, as Fair Traders, the group's Fair Trade market, will be open. Nativities, ornaments, jewelry and other items from all over the world will be available for sale-all made by artisans paid a fair, living wage for their work.

James runs his hand along a shelf full of expensive, glistening glass water pipes before grabbing a small, clear one. It has a titanium disk where the bowl is supposed to be. The lanky, droopy-eyed lawn service owner sets it on a table next to a small blowtorch and twists the cap off a cylindrical rubber container. Using a pencil-like, stainless-steel utensil, he scoops out a small amount of a crumbly mustard-yellow substance that looks like Play-Doh.
He uses the torch to scorch the titanium disk until it's red-hot and then drops the yellow pebble onto it. He quickly hands the pipe to me, and I inhale a stream of white vapor, hold it in for three seconds, and then cough hard. My eyelids flutter, my hands tingle, and my cheeks flush. I feel as if I'm shooting through outer space at warp speed.
I slouch in a chair for the next hour and every few minutes mutter incoherent sentences. Eventually, I'm able to stand, but for about four hours after I leave James' cramped Homestead pad, misfiring neurons muddle my cerebral cortex.
The experience inside James' apartment might sound like the beginning of a public service announcement about huffing household cleaning agents, but in fact I had become part of the hottest trend in good old-fashioned weed culture. I'd inhaled fumes of Blue Dream wax, a strain of butane hash oil, the most potent form of cannabis on the planet.
When manufactured properly, BHO, as it is commonly known, is packed with galactic levels of tetrahydrocannabinol — THC — the chemical compound in marijuana that has the greatest effect on the brain. Nicknamed "dabs" and "wax," the oil has attracted legions of cannabis users. "This gets you as high as the first time you smoked pot even though you have been smoking pot for years," insists James, whose name New Times agreed to change for this story to protect his standing in the arts community. "As far as marketing, this stuff markets itself."
In the past 12 months, BHO use has exploded across Florida and the rest of the nation. Tens of thousands of people are uploading videos to YouTube, Instagram, and Vine of themselves making and smoking the oil. Rap artists such as B-Real, Action Bronson, Wiz Khalifa, and Juicy J are spreading the BHO gospel, and even stodgy mainstream media outlets such as the Atlantic have published basic guides to "dabbing."
Though dabbers believe BHO is the future of cannabis consumption, the movement could get derailed by its own popularity. From Southern California to Florida's west coast, dozens of novices have attempted to manufacture it, with disastrous results. These wannabe cooks have blown themselves up — knocking down walls, terrifying neighbors, and befuddling cops, who have mistaken the glass, steel, and aluminum tubes and explosive materials used in manufacturing BHO for bomb-making paraphernalia.
Just three months ago, two men in their early 20s splintered an efficiency apartment in St. Petersburg, the first such incident reported in the Sunshine State.
"It's no joke," says St. Petersburg Fire & Rescue arson investigator Lt. Joel Granata. "The explosion almost killed both of them. This butane hash oil is nothing to play with."
Marijuana smokers have been making hash oil using solvents such as butane or ethyl alcohol since the 1960s. Back then, the extract was dubbed "red oil," "jelly-butane hash," and "honey oil," the last a slang term also used for modern-day BHO. "Butane extraction has been done for decades by only select, knowledgeable hash makers," says Bobby Black, a senior editor at High Times magazine. "It wasn't widespread or produced on a large scale."
Though using butane might sound hazardous, it is a relatively clean solvent. Food manufacturers have always employed it to make vanilla, orange, mint, coconut, and other extracts.
To produce BHO, the process is simple: An empty tube, usually made of aluminum, stainless steel, or glass, is packed with pot leaves. The tube is capped on one end with a coffee filter, and on the other, there's a rubber stopper through which the butane is injected. The low temperature of the liquid butane crystallizes cannabis resins found in hairlike appendages that contain potent levels of THC called "trichomes." As the butane passes through the marijuana, it strips the resin into the solvent, which exits into a Pyrex dish.
Other solvents commonly used are hexane, isopropyl alcohol, ethanol, and frozen CO2 (dry ice). "Of all the hash techniques, butane is the fastest and produces the most potency," Black says. "You just pack a tube, shoot your butane through it, and a few minutes later, you have your product."
Solvent-based extracts remained on the fringes of pot culture until 2005, when a Vancouver man calling himself "BudderKing" introduced his own brand of concentrate — "Budder" — during a medical marijuana conference. According to a 2005 article in the magazine Cannabis Culture, Vancouver-based chemist and plant analyst Dr. Paul Hornby, who runs a company that tests marijuana, proclaimed, "Budder is the cleanest, most potent cannabis product I've ever tested."
BudderKing spread his technique on cannabis message boards and in High Times. Cultivators in California, Washington, and Colorado — states where voters legalized marijuana for medical use in 1996, 1998, and 2000, respectively — began making Budder to sell to dispensaries.

What is happening now is with all these mom and pop Grow "Rooms" and "closets"
a sucker might add anything to make it strong. Results for some of these additives
wont show up for years, after you thinking and memory is "F"ed Up. Trust me.
I smoke this bull shit for 50 years.
It's no good in the long run and bad for children in the short run.
I smoked a lot of kilowatt kush wax with my gardener buddy in the mountains...I must have high tolerance because it never game me those crazy soaring highs or whatever
""They are risking their lives and their property not knowing what the hell they are doing.""
Why not tell them how to do it then?
Do NOT make BHO inside of any building, structure, or vehicle.
Do NOT make BHO in any urban or suburban environment or anywhere people.
Do NOT make BHO while wearing synthetics (can cause static charges which can ignite butane).
Do NOT make BHO while possessing any lighters, cell phones, matches, or other sources of ignition.
Pretty dang simple really. So far every explained explosion has been either 1) inside a building or 2) someone lights a cigarette.
DO purge, thoroughly and properly.
DO be careful in dosing BHO - a little dab will do you, and the rocketship high described at the start of this article is due to an excessively large dose. Great if that's what you want or need...but in all other cases a tiny dab is sufficient.
I was one of the people in the recent Florida poll. I like to think doctors know what they are doing, but I can't help but wonder, why is this illegal in the first place? Where does government come off with their tax on a weed. Sounds like, if they wanted, they could tax the air we breathe.
I don't care for the idea of impaired people driving on the road with me. Still, that has nothing to do with government regulations. It seems that a person smoking does much less harm than alcohol. It's just that a drunk will try to smoke, while smokers don't care about drinking. When people are smoking, and drinking, the booze is what makes them try crazy stuff. I it might add, that when polled, I did agree to medical use. I have never tried hash oil or BHO, but maybe once I evaluate it, I might think differently.
I love how many people jump on here to voice their ignorance. They based their views off of a movie called refer madness, and try to use it as hard facts. DO THE RESEARCH DO IT FOR REAL. I have and I can shot all you "refer madness crazies" down all day with cold hard facts. Email me the info you have of some one dying from marijuana ill wait...
It kind of makes me wonder how many people got injured or died turning corn into liquor, potatoes into vodka, poppy sap into opium...
So we are promoting drug use now huh? Wtf guys?
First the people making this are fucking stupid on the can it says flammable second you have to use refined. Butane..there is also healthier ways to make hash for example using the ice method and if you dont make bho the right way there many toxins that can fuck you up. Instead he should have shined some light on that not to buy that street shit. Francisco Alvarado should have spoke on what medical marijuana can do for the sick and the state and what laws might take place.not talk about all these idiots that dont know what they are doing or making a quick buck on a product that people dont know about and putting in there bodys. There was only one sentence about ligalization of medical marijuana obviously he did not research what he wrote about. What a dick and waste of a read
vice lol
Damn, them dabs don't play...
This stuff just became a felony in Michigan, carrying the same penalty as crack. Despite Michigan being a medical marijuana state.
yum yum!!
Happening in north Texas too and its awesome
dab city bitch dab dab city bitch
Hmmmm, how to say this without offending anyone ? If you feel the need to try your hand at making this stuff, eventually legalized or not, don't do it around me or anyone I give a damn about. And that includes marketing it, selling it, using it and anything else you can think of. I want nothing to do with the criminal issues that this will eventually create. This also includes any addictions and financial shortcomings where one thinks they have to break and enter my home or car and rob me for their next fix. I'll be perfectly clear, I consider those that do make anything of this nature that ultimately hurts my position and quality of life as making my life that much more difficult than it has to be. I don't want to pay a penny more for insurance because another is under the influence of this crap and somehow a legislated act deems that I have some legal obligation to overcome their poor judgements and impairments. And bring another special needs aka retard into the world from genetic defects caused by this, I don't want to pay more for healthcare over that. Bad enough the human gene pool is polluted as it is that anyone would knowingly do this to themselves. And don't get on a soapbox preaching about alcohol & tobacco being worse. I don't want alcoholics around me either. I may lead a boring life, but I like it that way, there are enough challenges without handicapping one's self with this stupidity.
Colorado does it better than Cali...just sayin.
cuz its awesome strong as fuk but awesome- one time i broke out in a sweat!
Galactic's a pretty accurate description.
Butane treatment is not the future. It's the past.
Just legalize it already.
I'll just call my buddy Jesse and we'll get to cooking.
Welcome to what California has been doing for years.
Please dont go home and try and make this...don't be a fucking idiot. The process is similar to cooking meth and it extremely volatile...
@lenny14 if you're driving in S. Florida (probably n. florida too but idk) you are already driving surrounded by impaired people. at any given time there are 5 drivers around you on oxycodone if you're driving in southeast florida.
Butane hash is the purist form and its safe if you follow directions. Do you store octane in your living room??
@James G. Camp The only criminal issues that arise due to drugs are prohibition: ask the 1930's about how that worked out with alcohol. Marijuana is not physically addictive so no addict is going to break into anything over it. Marijuana's price is also hyperinflated, like all prohibited recreational drugs, which is why addicts resort to robbing people in the first place. Heroin can be created for 12 cents a dose that now cost $20. Do you think people would be robbing people at gun point for 12 cents? Let's use a little logic here.
If some one is on prescription pain killers it's okay to pay a penny more for insurance? What makes marijuana, cocaine, heroin or anything else any different? As long as they weren't at the level of inebriation it should have no bearing.
None of the commonly used illegal drugs (marijuana, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, psychedelics such as LSD or psilocybe mushrooms ect) are teratogenic so you can assuage your fears about malformed "retard" babies. Well not entirely since the following legal drugs are teratogenic: alcohol (ethanol), isotretinoin (13-cis-retinoic acid, Roaccutane), temazepam (Restoril; Normisson), nitrazepam (Mogadon), nimetazepam (Ermin), aminopterin or methotrexate, androgenic hormones, busulfan, captopril, enalapril, coumarin, cyclophosphamide, diethylstilbestrol, phenytoin (diphenylhydantoin, Dilantin, Epanutin), Dexamethasone, etretinate, lithium, methimazole, penicillamine, tetracyclines, thalidomide, trimethadione, methoxyethyl ethers, Flusilazole, valproic acid ect. and even possibly nicotine.
As an aside: I think the one polluting the human gene pool are vapid breeders such as yourself spreading your sub-genius IQ DNA like it was gold. This suffusion of low intelligence DNA is lowering world IQ, so please for the sake of the world stop breeding and stop any of your children if applicable. Have a nice day.
Ur an idiot and got no clue what ur talking about so the little old lady dabbing so she can remember her grand kids names is a criminal really so the Lil old man dabbing because he crushed his spin is a criminal??? Or better yet that vet that dabs cause he lost both legs and has PTSD to help cope is a criminal. Next time b4 u sound like a freakin retard do some research
So you've been cooking meth?? How do u know how to make meth? How do u know bho is like meth? Have you been blasting bho??
It is safe..if its made in a lab. By a prprofessional, not some kid in his backyard many think they know what they are doing. Those are the ones that make medical marijuana look bad.
Great job trying to rationalize drug use. What injury does the writer here have? Give me a freaking break.
Exactly if they sold cheap oil no one would be blowing shit up
Lol at get the sand out of your vagina. Though challenging, I managed to get through your post. I'm not attacking weed, that's another topic, I'm talking about this concentrated crap.
I don't drink caffeine by the way.
Marijuana isn't a drug. You are programmed to think that. It is as safe as breathing air. I can get cataracts, glaucoma, Alzheimer's, god knows how many cancers I can no longer get due to the fact I smoke weed. There for I see it as preventative medicine. That caffein you drink every day is more addicting and more dangerous. Do some research cause you just sound like an ignorant person. How is god wrong explane that to me???? Genisis 1:12 I have give you all the seed bearing plants and herbs to use... It cures chrons disease, dementia, multiple sclerosis. Oh whatch out now that dangerous I might not ever get any serous illness in my life... Meaning I might NEVER give big PHARMA a penny. No do u see why it's illegal. You probably take all kinds of pills and because the doctor gave them to you that a ok huh??? That's why every day they have comercials if you've experiences these symptoms call us so we can sue the shit out of some one. More people die every year from chocking on pen caps then marijuana. DO THE RESEARCH!!! NO ONE HAS EVER DIED FROM MARIJUANA. Marijuana has been used by man since 3000b.c. You lord witch ever one you believe in smoked weed because back then every one smoked weed. So get the sand out of you vagina.

Transport — personal and public
Europe's biofuel plans could cause huge environmental destruction 10.11.10
The first study to review the indirect land use change (ILUC)[1] impact of the anticipated EU wide increases in the use of biofuels up to 2020, concludes that European policy does not adequately protect the environment against negative consequences says a report from the Institute for European Environmental Policy (IEEP).[2]
Based on newly released national plans ILUC will lead to substantial land conversion and, as a consequence, additional greenhouse gas emissions beyond those that would arise from the continued fossil fuel use.
According to David Baldock, Executive Director IEEP, 'Promoting the use of biofuels with no consideration of indirect land use change (ILUC) has the potential actually to increase the EU's greenhouse gas emissions. It is vital that this situation is rectified and ILUC impacts are urgently addressed within EU law. It is essential to remember that the renewable energy Directive, which is driving EU biofuel use, was adopted to help combat climate change.'
This report[3] 'Anticipated Indirect Land Use Change Associated with Expanded Use of Biofuels and Bioliquids in the EU – An Analysis of the National Renewable Energy Action Plans'. It is available to download in full at www.ieep.eu
Under EU law all Member States are required to derive 10% of their transport fuels from renewable sources by 2020[4]. Plans from national governments[5] setting out how they will reach this target are only now becoming available. These confirm that conventional biofuels (derived from crops such as wheat, rapeseed and sugar cane) will be the primary technology used in delivery.
A new report by IEEP concludes that between 4.1 and 6.9 million hectares of additional land will need to be cropped due to the increasing conventional biofuel demand, set out in national plans. This is equivalent to an area of somewhere between the size of Belgium and the Republic of Ireland. The report estimates that this would lead to additional annual emissions of between 27 and 56 million tonnes of carbon dioxide between 2011 and 2020, associated with land conversion[6]. This would be equivalent to having 12 to 26 million additional cars on Europe's roads in 2020.
Under the renewable energy Directive, which specifies the 10% target, biofuels are required to deliver some limited greenhouse gas reductions compared to fossil fuels. However, this only takes into account the direct emissions associated with their production, from original crop to final fuel. Missing from this calculation are other significant consequences, such as ILUC. This occurs when crops displaced by biofuel feedstocks are cultivated elsewhere, causing new land to be brought into arable production.
It had been hoped that the 10% target would be used by EU countries as an opportunity to adopt innovative solutions such as use of advanced biofuels[7], electric vehicles and would drive investment in energy efficiency. However, the report shows that conventional biofuels will dominate up to 2020, accounting for up to 8.8% of transport fuel use or 24.3 million tonnes of oil equivalent (toe). 15 million toe of this total consumption would additional demand directly driven by the adoption of the 10% target. It is the impact of this additional usage that has been assessed within this report.
Catherine Bowyer, lead author, IEEP: 'This analysis underlines the need to include ILUC in the EU criteria for assessing whether biofuels should count towards the delivery of the renewable energy Directive's targets. The heavy reliance by Member States on conventional biofuel use in 2020 and the limited use of more advanced or energy efficient transport solutions are also a major concern; action by Member States to promote these would put Europe on a more sustainable pathway '.
The analysis of ILUC impacts is an evolving field and this study applies assumptions based on the best available data sets at the time of drafting[8]. While the figures regarding the scale of ILUC impact may vary between studies, sensitivity tests completed for this assessment show that even when much lower assumptions regarding land use impacts and associated greenhouse gas emissions are adopted, the ILUC impacts are such that biofuels do not deliver emission reductions required under EU law.
Biofuels remain devisive. They are regarded by some as important to achieving lower carbon transport, in particular by replacing future use of fossil fuels in heavy freight and aircraft. However, the green credentials of some conventionally produced biofuels are increasingly under scrutiny, with mounting concerns over their environmental footprint.
[1] Indirect Land Use Change (ILUC) is generated by the elevated demand for agricultural commodities as a consequence of biofuel consumption. In response there will be an expansion of the total area required for growing arable crops, often at the expense of grass or forest. Feedstocks for biofuels are often grown on land that is already arable, however, if total food production is to be maintained this is likely to result in the displacement of food production to new areas. The expansion in the area of cultivation leads to land use change, which is associated with significant GHG emissions as a consequence of the release of carbon locked up in soils and biomass. Moreover the expansion in cultivated area and more intensive use of agricultural land can pose a potentially significant threat to biodiversity globally.
[2] The Institute for European Environmental Policy is a respected, independent not for profit institute dedicated to advancing an environmentally sustainable Europe through policy analysis, development and dissemination.
[3] This report was produced independently by IEEP and at the request of ActionAid, BirdLife International, ClientEarth, European Environmental Bureau, FERN, Friends of the Earth Europe, Greenpeace, Transport & Environment and Wetlands International.
[4] The renewable energy Directive (2008/98/EC) sets targets for the delivery of renewable energy ie for 20% of all energy to be from renewable sources and 10% of transport fuels to be from renewable sources by 2020. Following concerns regarding the direct environmental impacts of the Directive it also contains a set of criteria intended to limit the land use change impacts of use of biofuels in transport and bioliquids in heat and power. These require that biofuels used to meet the EU targets must not be grown on certain sensitive lands and that a minimum level of greenhouse gas savings be derived from their use ie 35% reduction from 2011 rising to a 50% reduction in 2017. This only accounts, however, for impacts associated with the direct production of biofuels, it does not account for indirect impacts on land and associated emissions caused by displacement of existing activities to other areas ie ILUC.
[5] This report examined the National Renewable Energy Action Plans (NREAPs) produced by Member States. Required by the renewable energy Directive these set out how each national government plans to meet their 2020 targets and specify in detail their predicted use of biofuels. At the time of drafting 23 NREAPs had been published.
[6] Direct savings of greenhouse gas emissions required under the renewable energy Directive have already been subtracted from this figure; therefore, this represents the emissions anticipated to be additional to continued fossil fuel use up to 2020. The annualised figures take into account deductions over a 20 year period as specified in the renewable energy Directive for land use emissions - this is to take into account
that emissions from land use change represent a one off hit compared to emissions from production that are ongoing.
[7] Advanced biofuels are specified within the Renewable Energy Directive under Article 21.2 as those derived from wastes, residues, non-food cellulosic material, and ligno-cellulosic material and count double towards the delivery of the 2020 transport target
[8] This analysis was based primarily on comparative analysis of modelling results assessing ILUC produced by the Joint Research Centre, the research arm of the European Commission. The results and assumptions were, however, checked by experts in transport policy and against other analysis of ILUC consequences.

Emergency services called to multi-car crash in A414 North Orbital Road Eastbound
Updated 12:21pm Monday 10th February 2014 in News By Rebecca Perring, Senior Reporter
Drivers can expect traffic in London Colney this afternoon after a crash between multiple cars.
Emergency services were called to a crash on the A414 North Orbital Road Eastbound between White Horse Lane, Highfield Lane and the A1(M) J3/A1001 St Albans and South Hatfield, which involved a four-wheel drive vechicle and multiple cars at 10.29am this morning.
A spokesperson from the police said it is thought a lampost is currently blocking one lane, while another lane is blocked by a broken down Mondeo after it crashed with a Volvo.
At 11.22am the Highways Agency was called to remove the lampost, which was causing obstruction.

Vehicle Profile: The 2012 Scion xB
Dealer Specials
Looking to Save?
Check here for Dealer Specials.
The Scion brand has defined cool since it was first introduced to the U.S. market, and no vehicle has exemplified the success of the brand more than the xB. The boxy vehicle defies convention. It features the roominess of a crossover and the "cool factor" of a well-designed hatchback. The well-regarded xB continues its dominance for 2012 with more of everything that trendsetting buyers have come to expect from the Scion brand.
When looking at the 2012 xB with an eye on practicality, this segment-busting vehicle really impresses. The xB boasts 70 cubic feet of available cargo space, or more space than many expensive and fuel-thirsty crossovers. The xB features a 158-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine, yet that power won't hurt buyers at the pump. The EPA estimates 28 highway mpg for the xB.
The xB (MSRP starting at $16,300) comes with 16-inch wheels, keyless entry and one of the best standard sound systems on the market – a 160-watt Pioneer audio system that boasts top technology and amazing sound quality. The Pioneer system features an auxiliary audio input jack and USB connectivity for MP3 players, a must for today's tech-conscious buyer. Also standard is Scion's BLU Logic® hands-free system, which enables owners to utilize Bluetooth to interact with their smartphones. HD Radio is also standard as part of this system.
Offering standard features that can only be had as options on competitive makes is a hallmark of the Scion brand, and so is an endless array of customization options. Anyone looking to make their xB stand out in any crowd can enhance the exterior with special foglamps, a rear wind deflector, carbon fiber window trim and Genuine Scion Paint Protection. Since no component is more interchangeable than wheels, Certified Scion dealers offer upgraded 16-, 17- and 19-inch alloys that are of much higher quality than the aftermarket wheels offered at most tire stores. Best of all, Scion approves of these wheels, which tells tuners they're buying quality parts.
Customizing the exterior is a must, but what about a one-of-a-kind cabin? Scion offers a variety of interior enhancements including Scion Remote Engine Start, the Scion Security System and a variety of handy storage nets to properly maximize the vast space within the xB. While the standard Pioneer sound system is magnificent, Scion understands that audiophiles and techies can sometimes demand further refinement. That's why Scion offers Navigation System 200 with a seven-inch LCD screen that can also play DVD movies. Buyers can also opt for an upgraded Pioneer sound system with Bluetooth connectivity, the highly popular Pandora Internet Radio and iTunes tagging.
For xB drivers who are more interested in tuning their vehicle with added performance options, Scion offers TRD parts and accessories. Few brands have as much street credibility as Toyota Racing Development – "TRD" – which is why the xB and TRD make such a wonderful team. A TRD Sport Muffler improves airflow and sounds sublime, and for improved stopping power, there is the TRD High Performance Brake Kit. The xB can be lowered with a TRD Lowering Sway Bar, and a TRD Rear Sway Bar can be had to further stabilize the vehicle. Add upsized wheels to the TRD lowering kit and the already stylish xB turns into a genuine work of art.
Improved handling is also available courtesy of TRD Performance Shocks. Combine the lowering kit, upgraded shocks and upsized wheels, and the xB transforms into a sporty wagon that rivals coupes for driving refinement.
The xB is a top-notch value, and part of its successful formula includes industry-leading safety features.

Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are incurable chronic diseases of the intestinal tract. The two diseases are often grouped together as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) because of their similar symptoms. As many as 4 million people (including one million Americans, 23,000 Australians, and 250,000 Canadians) worldwide suffer from a form IBD. The cost of lost productivity to U.S. businesses due to IBD is estimated to be as much as $.8 billion a year.
Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis have similar symptoms, but are different in the manner in which they affect the digestive tract. Each disease also has different surgical options, and may be treated with a spectrum of diverse medications. The most common symptoms of IBD include, but are not limited to:
- Abdominal pain
- Weight loss
- Fever
- Rectal bleeding
- Skin and eye irritations
- Diarrhea
Several diagnostic tests are normally completed and studied by a digestive specialist (a gastroenterologist) before a diagnosis of IBD is made. The "gold standard" for diagnosis of IBD is considered the colonoscopy. During this test a fiber optic tube is inserted into the rectum while the patient is sedated to allow the doctor to inspect the lining of the large intestine.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is often confused with ulcerative colitis, making diagnosis difficult. The inflammation typical of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis is not present in IBS. The most common symptoms of IBS are alternating diarrhea and constipation, abdominal pain, bloating, spasms and nausea. IBS is treated with fiber, reduction of stress levels, proper rest and exercise.
Intervals of active disease, or "flares," and periods of remission characterize IBD. Prescription drugs are frequently used to prevent inflammation (known as maintenance drugs) or to control an existing flare. Conventional medicines used to treat IBD include:
- Sulfa drugs (sulfasalazine)
- Corticosteriods (prednisone)
- 5-Aminosalicylates (Asacol, Pentasa, Rowasa, or 5-ASA)
- Immunosuppressives (Imuran, Cyclosporine, 6-MP, and Methotrexate)
- Anti-TNF (Remicade)
Crohn's Disease
Crohn's disease can affect the small and large intestine as well as other organs in the digestive tract. Unlike ulcerative colitis, which only affects the inner layer, Crohn's disease commonly involves all layers of the intestinal wall. Some complications that can occur in Crohn's disease include:
- Strictures - a narrowing of part of the intestine.
- Fistulas - abnormal tunnels that connect two organs.
- Fissures - cracks in the anal skin.
Several types of surgery can be used to treat the symptoms and complications of Crohn's disease, yet none are a cure. The most common is the resection, during which surgeons remove a diseased piece of the intestine and reconnect the two cut ends. Surgeons use stricturplasty to open up narrowed sections of the intestine by making an incision lengthwise along the stricture and closing it in the opposite direction. A colostomy, removal of part of the large intestine, or an ileostomy, removal of the entire large intestine are other surgical procedures.
Ulcerative Colitis
In ulcerative colitis, the inner lining of the large intestine (colon) and rectum are inflamed. The disease does not affect the small intestine. A serious complication of ulcerative colitis is toxic megacolon, when gases collect in the colon and cause it to inflate.
There are several surgical options for the ulcerative colitis patient. Surgery for ulcerative colitis always involves removal of the entire colon, or a colectomy. With no colon, an alternative method of collecting stool must be utilized. In an ileostomy the end of the small intestine is connected to an opening (stoma) in the abdomen where stool is collected in an ostomy appliance worn on the outside of the abdomen. Fashioning a pouch from small intestine to collect waste, and connecting it to the rectum creates an ileoanal anastomosis (j-pouch).
Unfortunately the cause of each of these intestinal disorders is poorly understood, and none of them has a cure. The symptoms are distressing, embarrassing and even debilitating. Research and awareness are necessary in the fight to overcome IBD.

Having Fun With Aaron Gray
Just because we got donkeystomped in our last couple of games, I thought we'd need something to smile about. Love him or disgusted by him - recently one poster took the love a little too seriously - Aaron Gray's a good guy (I think he's an awful player, but every team has their own Scalabrine so live & let live) - and I thought these links would give people something to smile about when we take things a little too seriously. The above link's to Aaron Gray in a battle with his shoe while with the Bulls, and this link is to a video of the White Panther taking a dive like Pau Gasol. Who knows what the playoffs will bring but let's take it with a smile. After all, however we think it was accomplished, Monty Williams took us to a place through much adversity and had us overachieve significantly, and proudly, this season. Go Hornets!

Michael Lindner is an American pipe maker who was born and raised near Detroit, Michigan. He began making pipes in 2000 and has gained quite a reputation as a high-grade pipe maker. He had been repairing pipes since 1997, and, as is often the case, he tried his hand at making them from the beginning. Lucky for collectors all over the world, he not only figured it out, but developed a unique voice.
Michael carves around 100 pipes each year that are either turned or are strictly freehand, yet he also makes modern interpretations of old English classics. Not only does he pour meticulously over every detail in form, he does a fantastic job of bringing old-world colors and textures into modern production. One of his most recognizable features is his slot and button. Each Lindner pipe is made with a stem cut from ebonite rod complete with a turned tenon. The airway is larger at the button than most other brands, and a wide funnel and concaved button has become one of the signature elements. Very few carvers are recognizable by button, alone. The mouth-feel and attention to finishing each stem is a direct extension of his care in shaping and polishing the bowl. Not only will you find beautiful smooths or blasts, but many of them will sport materials such as horn, bamboo, and exotic woods.
13 Michael Lindner pipes in this category.

Volleyball Trumps the Purple Aces in Four
Champaign, Ill. - DePaul topped Evansville in four games (30-19, 28-30, 30-18, 30-21). A win against Evansville gave DePaul third place at the Illini Classic. The Blue Demons held the Purple Aces to a .074 hitting percentage. DePaul was able to lay down a .237 hitting percentage.
The Blue Demons came into the match with a winning attitude and it showed in game one, commanding the match from the first point. They took the game from the Purple Aces 30-19.
In game two the Blue Demons were unable to hold onto their lead and dropped the game 28-30. "As a team we lacked defense. We could not stay low and were releasing from our base position," Head Coach Dawn Dockstader said.
Game three and four the Blue Demons came out with a vengeance, wanting to win the match in convincing style. They pulled away from the Purple Aces 30-18 and 30-21.
Senior Janet Cotter had an outstanding match both offensively and defensively. Cotter laid down an impressive .312 hitting percentage recording 24 kills, one solo block and four assisted blocks. She also got down on 24 digs and served two aces. "This is the level that I have wanted to see Janet at this season and I expect her to stay at that level and continue to grow as a player, Dockstader said.
Freshman Denae Gibson had a break out performance for the Blue Demons both offensively and defensively. She started every game of the match and put down four kills, one service ace and solo block, four assisted blocks and got down on seven digs. "I was pleased with her on defense and was able to count on her during rallies," Dockstader said.
DePaul opens at home against UW- Milwaukee on Tuesday, September 9th at 7:00 pm at the DePaul Athletic Center.

Duration: 1 Hour
The 6-part IFC Original short-based comedy series PORTLANDIA, created, written by and starring Fred Armisen (SNL) and Carrie Brownstein (vocalist/guitarist, WILD FLAG, Sleater-Kinney), premieres on IFC Friday, January 21, 2011 at 10:30 PM ET/PT. Each episode's character-based shorts draw viewers into "Portlandia," the creators' dreamy and absurd rendering of Portland, Oregon.
"I love Portlandia. It really represents so much of what I love culturally, musically and in so many other ways," said Fred Armisen. "This started as just a fun summer activity for Carrie and me. We'd be hanging out in Portland and shooting whatever made us laugh, and that evolved into Portlandia."PORTLANDIA's inhabitants include but are not limited to: the owners of a feminist book store; a militant bike messenger; an artsy couple who attach cut-outs of birds to everything ("put a bird on it!"); an organic farmer who turns out to be a cult leader; an adult hide and seek league; and a punk rock couple negotiating a "safe word" to help govern their love life.

|Syria screens problems here
By Robert Reich
WHILE ALL EYES are on Syria and on America's response, the real economy in which most Americans live is sputtering.
More than four years after the recession officially ended, 11.5 million Americans are unemployed, many of them for years. Nearly 4 million have given up looking for work altogether. If they were actively looking, today's unemployment rate would be 9.5% instead of 7.3%.The share of the population working or seeking a job is the lowest in 35 years.

2.48/5 rDev -20.3%
Beer pours very pale red, hardly a red at all. Little to no head, no lacing to speak of. Not a very pretty beer.
Smells thick and bready, of cracker. Malty. Passable, nothing crazy.
Taste is decently malty, with some caramel, again nothing spectacular, just passable.
As with all Leinenkugel's brews, this is heavy on the carbonation, though not as much as some of their other brews. Just enough to kill the mouthfeel for me. It's a bit thin also, and this damages the drinkability, but it's light enough to offset this.
Overall, very passable, not recommended. I won't be drinking this one again.

This is one of my facorites that I have tried from Leines thus far. The small was very pleasant, while the taste was even better. I was given a bottle of this on accident while at a restaurant. I am very happy about the mixup or I would have never tried this beer. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good red beer.

Lienie's red does not give much of a show in the head department but damn, that is one pretty-colored beer. It is crystal clear, slightly effervescent, and a very striking orange/ red/ copper color. The nose is mostly fresh grain with berry notes and faint hop.
This is a crisp beer that starts off slightly bitter and mellows into creamy vienna malt goodness with a nice toasty undertone. There is a very soft wisp of hop in the finish. This is an extremely soft, smooth, and balanced beer. This is probably the best Vienna Lager I have had, althought I'd have to put it up against Negra to see for sure.

I may rate this higher than others but that's ok by me. its my lawnmowing, honey do list, football watching beer of choice.
chill it cold and enjoy. not your average lager as it has a bit of a malt backbone with a hop tingle at the end. nice ruby red color . try it as cold as you can.

12 brown bottle with a bottle code, no freshness date.
A- Deep orangey red color, very clear ... the head dissipates a little too quick for my liking.
S- Mild toasted malt aroma, wet with a caramel undertone.
T&M- Slight crispness, a tad slick on the palate with a moderate body. Thinning toasted grain meets a watery steely caramel malt, hoppiness stays on balanced bitter with very little flavor.
D- Better than Killian's Red, but that is not saying much is it. I guess my point is, if you are going to brew this style it can't be strip filtered and perhaps pasteurized. Lacks that malty lager freshness. Not bad but nothing to go out of your way for.

3.15/5 rDev +1.3%
This brewery is almost a rarity in the southern USA, so I jumped at the opportunity to bring a bottle home from the Leaf and Ale store, in Knoxville, Tn. This one pours an ultraclear, orange/amber body with a small and shortlived offwhite head. Lacing is minimal.
Aroma suggests a malt bomber. Sweet, caramel and toffee aromas are all over the nose, with only a hint of floral hops.
Mouthfeel is appropiate for style, with a light body and lively carbonation.
Taste is dominated by sweet maltiness, with caramel and toffee saturating the palate. Hops lend only enough presence to prevent cloying sweetness.
Easy drinking lager, overall, and crisp and refreshing in the right circumstances. Not very complex, with a sweet malt dominance. Worth a try, but I wouldn't seek it out.

2.75/5 rDev -11.6%
Pours light amber, redish (suprise) Leaves some nice lacing. Not much nose detected. Lightly flavored, malt, slight burnt flavor, chalky and dry finish. Light, redish beer, not really much going on with this one. Another middle of the road, slightly better then Macros brew from Leiny. Pass it by, you/we can do better then this limp and lame stuff.

Appearance: amber in color, 1/3 inch head, high carbonation, clear
Smell: caramel and toasted malt
Taste: caramel, hops, and toasted malt
Mouthfeel: high carbonation, medium/light bodied, moderately bitter with a sweeter end
Drinkability: An average Vienna Lager. I like the caramel malt, but it is rather tame--especially for this brewery. A solid beer that I would not turn down, but most likely would not rush out for either.

Poured a reddish orange , clear , with a thin and quikly dissipating white head. Smell is slightly malty , with just a bit of spicy hop in there. Taste is not bad , a little thin. Some caramel malt taste , slight hop. Better than killians and other big brewery reds ive had and wotrh a try , just not quite enough flavor for me.

12 oz. amber bottle. Poured a reddish-brown in appearance, with a bustling white head that lasts briefly. No lacing. Tough to pick out any distinct aroma, but finally some malts decided to show up. Flavor is more of the same...a rather uninspired attempt at an amber. Others have commented on a chemical-like flavor and I also noticed something amiss in the flavor. Malty sweet and not well-balanced. Finishes with nothing on the palate, like it just disappears. Mouthfeel and drinkability are par for the course. There's just nothing about this beer that stood out and kept me coming back for more. Any beer that often gets compared to against Kilian's can't be good. Pass.

Not a bad beer, and used to be one of my favorites when I thought this was "microbrew exotic". Pale red in color with almost non-existent head. The aroma was slightly sweet, although it was not malt, more of a corn/grain sweetness. The flavor was more of the same with slight hops appearing at the end of the flavor to give the lager taste. From Leine's offerings, I like the Original and Creamy Dark better. Not a bad beer for a change from the macro lagers and because of the high availability, can be found at most of the same places for the same price.

Appears as a dark amber / slightly red color. Good head but didn't hold all that long. Smell was underwhelming, but still pleasant. I couldn't discern any particular scent to describe it with. Taste is decent but nothing spectacular. Slightly on the dry side, but still pleasant. Mouth feel was on the lighter side, but not offensive. Overall I think its a pretty good lager that could be consumed en masse' if you so choose. Nothing out of the ordinary, but nothing to shy away from if you're just looking for a cold one.

Good ol Leinie's Feet, er, red. Good clear ruby red gleam to it. Aroma, of well, kinda footish. Nicknamed Leinie's Feet by those in the know.
Taste, not bad. Better than Killians, but not by much, nor anything to brag about. A real straight forward beer. Middle of the road. Got a lot more expensive lately, not worth anywhere near $6.99 a 6er.
