FOX 32 News has teamed up with no-kill shelter PAWS Chicago to bring you an adoptable pet each week. This week, we're featuring gentle giant Kahlua.
This 5-year-old Shepherd mix came to PAWS from Chicago Animal Care and Control. He looked to have suffered neglect in the past, since he was significantly overweight, had a very poor coat, overgrown nails and some skin irritation.
But now this sweet dog is healthy again and would benefit from exercise and some serious TLC. Although he is timid when meeting new people, Kahlua would love to be pet while sitting with a quiet companion at home.
You can meet Kahlua and other animals in need of forever homes at the PAWS Chicago Adoption & Humane Center in the Lincoln Park neighborhood.

Naturally beautiful and easy to apply
I rarely wear makeup, but when I do I want to look beautiful AND natural. The color-coded brushes and products make it quick and easy to apply, but -- more importantly -- enhance the features you like the most and deemphasize those you like least. Thank you, Lauren, for creating products that make me look the way I remember looking at 30 as I'm rapidly approaching 50! And for making it easy to replace just what I use the most (sheer concealer).
—Sarah Edsall
The mirror has become my friend
I am 80 years old...wow...sigh...and have been using Lauren's makeup for about four years. Even this aging, worn, skin looks good! The mirror has become my friend.

The Batesville Herald-Tribune
GREENSBURG — A Rushville man was killed and three other individuals were injured in a two-vehicle crash on State Road 3, near Carver Street, Thursday morning.
According to a press release from the Indiana State Police (ISP), the accident occurred just before 10:30 a.m. when a southbound red 2005 Pontiac Vibe being driven by Linda L. Phillips, 57, of Rushville, failed to yield at a green light on State Road 3 and turned left onto Carver Street into the path of a northbound white 2005 Chevrolet Suburban driven by Margaret L. Folkman, 55, of Batesville.
The Suburban struck the Vibe on the passenger side. Phillips' husband, Stephen B. Phillips, 65, was pronounced dead at the scene from multiple injuries.
Decatur County Coroner Charity Banks ruled that Phillips died from blunt force trauma to the head and chest.
Linda Phillips was airlifted from the scene to IU Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis with severe chest injuries.
Folkman and her passenger, Carol A. Firsich, 77, of Greensburg, were both taken to Decatur County Memorial Hospital in a private vehicle to be examined for pain in their lower extremities.
ISP Trooper Chris Howell, the lead investigator in the case, was assisted by fellow Trooper David Noah, the Decatur County Sheriff's Department, the Greensburg Police Department, the Greensburg Fire Department, Decatur County EMS and the Decatur County Coroner.
The investigation is ongoing.

UNCW Cross Country teams Make Season Debut in Boone
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 04 September 2013 21:49
- Written by Super User
WILMINGTON, North Carolina – The new-look UNCW cross country teams make their season debut Friday (Aug. 30) when the Seahawks travel west to the North Carolina mountains to compete in the Covered Bridge Open in Boone. The Seahawks will carry eight men and 10 women to the High Country to battle four other teams in the race hosted by Appalachian State. The women kick off the race with a 5K trek at 5 p.m., followed by the men running an 8K at 5:45 p.m. "We're excited about the season and looking forward to what it brings," said Layne Schwier, UNCW's long distance coach. In addition to the host Mountaineers and Seahawks, the field includes East Carolina, Florida State, USC Upstate and VMI.
"The competition will be strong and a tough test for us early. We'll be treating it as an opportunity to get our feet wet, shake off some rust and work on some team racing strategy. We are nowhere near the top fitness-wise, but it will be a good early season indicator that we can compare ourselves to when we return there in mid-October to race the same course and race distances. That's when we hope to be racing well and seeing some progress as we get closer to CAA's." The UNCW men's team will be anchored by senior captains John Riemer and Dylan Skinner, along with junior Casey Buddenbaum. Transfers Zach Nifong (Appalachian State) and Will Bunch (N.C. State) give the men additional depth this season. Riemer, from Monkton, Md., was the team's top finisher in five of seven races last season and UNCW's top runner at the Colonial Athletic Association Championships. On the women's side, senior captain Ashley Wybersky and fellow senior Haley Kapheim are ready to lead the way.
Sophomores Sarah Alexander and Dakota Foskey have looked strong in time trials and newcomers Parker Navarro, Hannah Riordan and Michael Moran have positioned themselves to contribute this season. Wybersky, a Manassas, Va., product, started slowly last season, but finished strong and led the team in the last four races of the campaign, including the CAA meet and NCAA Southeast Regionals. The 2013 schedule features seven races, including a pair of trips to Boone and Towson, site of the CAA Championships in early November. "We enjoy going up to Appalachian State for cooler temperatures, good competition and the opportunity to get some running in at Moses Cone before returning. Despite being in the mountains, the course is not all that hilly. The challenge is the altitude of 3,300 feet because we're not used to that." Following Friday's season debut, the Seahawks return home to stage the Seahawk Invitational next Friday. The men will start at 6 p.m. and the women are scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. on the campus recreation fields. State rivals Campbell and East Carolina will join the Seahawks and several NCAA Division II and III schools for the race. UNCW then travels to Towson Sept. 21 to get an early peek at the CAA course at Oregon Ridge Park near Hunt Valley, Md.
The Seahawks will have a chance to test the hilly layout before returning Nov. 2 for the conference finale. -UNCW-

The last one got a hole in it, the tab on the zipper broke off, then the zipper snagged up and wouldn't close, or open. It did last two seasons before all that. This one seems to be made of a thinner vinyl rather than the cloth like nylon of the last one. Seems to be, as I tossed the old one before I got the new one to compare. I would gladly pay a couple dollars more for one made of a more durable nylon and a better zipper.Read All Reviews

My Way: Rawbin
My name is Rawbin. I'm addicted to raw food and sparkly sunshine. I have two cooked teens and a non-raw husband. I began my raw journey early summer 2007. Rewind a few years to see health issues including allergies, abdominal surgeries, and weight problems. Fast-forward to present and find I'm feeling symptom free almost all the time. I'm thinner and healthier. When I stick with raw food and remain meat, gluten, & preservative free, I notice that my mind is clearer, my energy is high, and my need for sleep is low. Unfortunately, I get to feeling so great, that I feel invincible. I occasionally go into denial or, in a way, self-sabotage. I start thinking that maybe I could eat a little cooked food, some wheat or cheese, perhaps? But then I only crave more. Sometimes I can get away with it, but often times it hits me hard with belly pains, acne, & headaches. I get bloated, crampy, sluggish, and irritable. A few days all raw and I'm feeling magically healed again!
Each morning I get up with the sunrise. I have certain things I do every morning, but try as I might, I can never do it in the same order every day, making it difficult to stick to a set routine. Let the dogs out. Put on my yellow bumblebee boots to feed the horses. Lure the escapee goat back into her pen. Make a green smoothie, which I share with my family. Make salad for hubs and daughter. Rough house with the dog. Offer fruit & veggie scraps to chickens. I skin brush, then bathe, but I only shampoo my hair once a week. I try to check email and twitter messages last, because they're distracting.
In my ideal routine, I intend to exercise, practice the piano, or do housework, but often those things are forgotten until bedtime, when I vow that tomorrow, I'll do it first thing.
Recently, my "routine" has been altered because we're working on the grandparent's old place, built in 1920 called Bayfields. We've been camping there a few nights a week, fixing, winterizing, running back and forth for school, work, and feeding animals. The house has no cable TV, no phone, and no internet connection. Cell phones have no bars. It's peaceful.
That said, here's a sample of my week, my way:
Up with the sun. Worked in the kitchen, preparing raw dishes to share at the Spirit Bliss Thanks Living Dinner. Made sprouted almond milk (needed the almond pulp for Coconut Maca Cream Pie). Pot of teeccino(pretend coffee) to drink with my almond milk. Mesquite Apple Pecan Crisp. Kale salad using fresh picked kale from my sister's garden and a raw tahini dressing. Saved coconut water in a cool green jar. Finally, I whipped up a huge green smoothie using all leftover scraps: almonds, coconut water, banana, kale, spinach, pecans, maple, and apples. Printed labels for my dishes, listing their wholesome fresh ingredients. Sewed smiley-face-flower-patches onto my old jeans to make them feel special again.
On the way to visit my parents before dinner, I snacked on avocado and raw flax crackers. I hiked with my sister around Bayfields to share plans for next year's orchard, barnyard and garden.
We arrived at Spirit Bliss Farm with 2 pies, a salad, and "fresh squeezed" coconut water. I was blown away by the spread of great looking food and was glad I had my camera with me! I was especially thankful, because my hubs voluntarily came with me, giving up his annual day of S.A.D. feasting to try out my world. He couldn't have picked a better day than this one! The drive was beautiful, the day crisp, cool, and sunny. The place was filled with wonderful friends and there was plenty of yummy food sampling. There were Natural Zing samples. There was homemade sauerkraut and raw pumpkin nut-cheez-cake.
At one point, Jeff, president of Natural Zing, asked if anyone wanted to go out and pick up Mike, a stranded motorist. Not knowing who Mike was, but thinking if he's raw, he should be here, I volunteered. As my hubs handed me the car keys, he asked me, "Do you know this guy?" Well, no, but I left Spirit Bliss armed with cell phone, a GPS, and Mike's number. When I arrived at the gas station I found Mike and Iva, who I remembered meeting before. They were happy, grateful, and hungry… a perfect combination for a Thanks Living Dinner, don't you think?
Woke at sunrise craving raw pie. Posted a slideshow on Twitter, labeling food pics before I forgot what they were. Off to Bayfields to meet with repairman. While he tinkered in the basement, I tinkered in the greenhouse. As I set my first 2 plants (cilantro and basil) in their sunny new home. Scavenged the fridge for food. Opting for portables, I grabbed celery and clementines. Later daughter practiced driving, picked up book drive donations, to my sister's, where we dug up kale plants and lettuce seedlings. Back at Bayfields, hubs convinced me to "just be still" for a moment. At dusk, we were outside admiring the beauty of fall. We dined together, I had kale salad. They had sad spaghetti. I shared greens, tomatoes, peppers, and celery. We enjoyed apple crisp. I could hear them whispering secretly, sneaking cookies in the kitchen. I ate a piece of raw cashew/cacao cookie from my purse.
After dinner movie plans were next door home. We puttered around a while, changing lightbulbs, pulling off wallpaper, poking into closets... The movie was good (Michael Clayton) and microwave popcorn was served. So much for a 100% raw day. I polished off a whole bowlful without guilt.
Woke up at Bayfields, glowing windows. Looked outside to see the sun just peeking up over the water. By the time I found my camera, the sunlight was blinding. Filled the blender with celery, agave nectar, spinach, greens, almond butter & coconut oil. No vitamix, so it was lumpy/stringy. Shared with hubs, who was careful not to complain... we all have a 2nd toothbrush for our 2nd house, but he doesn't want to encourage a 2nd vitamix. Finished off apple crisp. While sitting at the bay window watching swans glide by, my daughter and I sat and talked. Grabbed an avocado and hopped in the car filled with trash bags full of wallpaper and prehistoric drugs from medicine cabinets, first to the recycling center, then home to feed hungry animals. With vitamix, I blended up more maple/mesquite/cinnamon sauce for another apple crisp. Whipped up raw tahini dressing.
Dinner with Mom and Dad suddenly became a traditional turkey dinner for nine! I grabbed a bowlful of kelp noodles with cooked vegetarian spaghetti sauce. Out to the market for more food. Back at Bayfields, I noticed sails and little boats were just put away for the winter. In the kitchen, my brother and I worked as we chatted. He cooked beans while I made salad. He put out a veggie platter while I sliced apples for the dessert. My sister-in-law and I peeled potatoes. We all sat together, I had portabella mushrooms, leftover kale salad, serving of mashed potatoes(not raw). Everyone tried my raw dessert except Dad. With his diabetes, I hoped raw food would help him. He refuses to try anything raw and tonight was no exception. Maybe I should tell him it's cooked.
Woke late today (6:30am) Slept with daughter because she's still a little "creeped out" in the creaky, old house. From under the covers I had a full view of the 2nd floor patio. Grey day. Wet oak leaves blown into little swirls around the corners. Hubs left to feed hungry creatures at the other house.
Made a green lumpy with green powder(my mix of spirulina, barley & wheat grass), bananas, almond butter, and young thai coconut. My daughter eats her usual bowl of cereal with milk. She declines a green lumpy.
Hosted coffee hour at church with my best friend this week. She brought cookies and cakes. I brought fruits and veggies. My older daughter was packed and ready for her ride back to college. Car stocked with raw snacks and two dogs. First pit-stop, with my permission, both girls ran to a fast food restaurant. I walked the dogs and ate in the parking lot while they were inside. Rain combined with holiday traffic, a 5 hour drive became 8. Car filled with the smell of clementines.
Said our goodbyes and younger daughter and I headed back. Driving home was easier, less traffic, but encountered snow and fog. I had walnuts, grapes and celery for munching. I ate all my carrots and both grapefruits, not because I was hungry, but because I was tired and munching kept me awake. Eventually pulled off to nap on an exit ramp for a few hours. Got home at 2:30am.
Slept late, daughter missed the bus, rushed morning routine. To Bayfields to shampoo carpet. I ate a plate of leftover sad food from Saturday night. Contained foods I'm allergic to. Shampooed the carpet a second time. Very perfumey smell. Best friend brought fresh greens from her garden. I really wasn't hungry and was totally regretting my food choices that morning. We shared raw lunch with my tahini/spinach/basil dressing on tomato, red pepper, and celery. Then warm portabella mushrooms with shitake mushroom gravy. Still tasty apple-no-longer-crisp for dessert.
Home to shower and change for Annapolis Chorale practice. I finally got my voice back! At practice they always have water and cookies for sale. I brought a bag of organic apples to place on the sale table so people have a healthier choice. They sold 2.
Woke with sinus headache. Wheat or carpet shampoo? Sometimes headaches go away on their own and since it was mild, I opted for not taking anything for it. Had a simple green smoothie of just spinach and grapes. Dropped off daughter at school with 7 boxes for book-drive.
Drove to Natural Zing for an experimental workday. Ate the sweetest clementines and cherries together during the drive. Jeff greeted me with my favorite snack: a Wild Bar! I admired pounds of packages of raw cacao, goji berries, nut butters, and spiced olives. Thought up a nice mental shopping list as the day went on! During lunch back at Spirit Bliss, I grabbed red chard from the dome to snack on as I worked. Jeff gave me a mini tour of what was growing. Was excited to see volunteer parsley sprouting in big patches outside. He said I could have some for my greenhouse! I blended a kale, banana smoothie for lunch using their blendtec. Helen brought in leftover raw pies from the Spirit Bliss dinner.
Headache was so bad that I was no longer hungry. Smells, sounds, and light were overwhelming. Migraine- full swing. I needed 2 excedrin and 6 hours of darkness. I tried not to complain, but I did anyway. Whine, whine, whine. Driving home I arranged for someone to meet me halfway. Daughter drove me home and offered me excedrin. Then I went straight to bed.
Woke without alarm, feeling magically better. Discovered their produce scraps still waiting in the kitchen. Chickens were happy to see me. Offered horses our corncob door ornament. Onion bread for the dehydrator, opened last young thai coconut and made savory soup for breakfast. Later, I drank the coconut water while eating grapes. Worked on computer, phone calls, cleaned kitchen, then rewarded myself with a sweet maca nog from last of almond milk. Herbal tea with honey. Lunch was sea tangle kelp noodles with raw cashew alfredo sauce (takes 30 seconds with vitamix).
Out the door to choir practice with daughter. Bayfields dinner, eating spinach, young greens, tomatoes and tahini dressing in the kitchen. Must sleep, another exciting day at Natural Zing!
Yeah, I'm liking it my way.
Rawbin is a happy, sparkly, deeply compassionate person who also happens to be a core member of the raw food community. She lives in Maryland with her two kids and husband. Rawbin blogs and updates her twitter regularly.

One woman with one voice is hoping her new facebook page spreads across Southeast Texas so other's women's voices can be heard.
Samantha Deets, 25, of Orange, was diagnosed with endometriosis four years ago.
Endometriosis is a female health disorder where the lining of the womb grows on the outside instead of the inside.
On the facebook page, "Endometriosis in SETX", women can share their symptoms, stories of fighting the painful condition, and give each other strength.
"I didn't have anybody to relate to when I was diagnosed four years ago. So, I know that there were girls out there just like me that needed someone to talk to," said Deets.
She started the group two weeks ago and already has a good following.
She says in her years of suffering, she's had multiple surgeries.
"We have adhesions and lesions and cysts growing in us that cause pain."
Endometriosis not only causes pelvic pain, it causes infertility, and injuries to other organs.
Deets says those who suffer should have a shoulder to lean on.
"I don't encourage anybody to try to go through it alone. It's not easy. It's very emotional. It's linked to depression and chronic fatigue," she said.
March is Endometriosis Awareness month and Deets is already planning an event to take place that month in Southeast Texas.

Dear Forum Nokia User,
In my thesis research on 'Co-Creation', I am studying different approaches for an interactive collaboration between a company and online user groups.
I developed this questionnaire for all users of Forum Nokia, ranging from just readers of the message board to senior and expert developers of mobile applications. I want to better understand why and how you are using Forum Nokia. I am also very interested your perceived benefits as a user of Forum Nokia.
Results from this questionnaire will strengthen my developed conceptual model on user motivations and user satisfaction. This will form the input for recommendations regarding potential successful management approaches for developer platforms.
Similar questionnaires will be posted in message boards of other developer platforms.

ATTICA, Ind. —
Sharon Negele's second try for a state representative seat turned out to be a successful one.
Negele, a Republican, topped Democrat Mark Straw by more than 4,000 votes even though she lost her own Fountain County by seven votes and Straw's Warren County by almost 400 votes. She also will represent all or parts of Benton, Newton, Jasper, Tippecanoe, White and Montgomery counties.
"I won all the rest of the counties," Negele said Wednesday morning while performing her duties as Attica clerk-treasurer before heading to Indianapolis for her first meeting to pick party leadership Wednesday afternoon. She said the Republicans will have a "super majority" in the House.
Negele is not the only new state representative in western Indiana. Alan Morrison, a Republican from Vigo County, will represent Troy, Fulton and Wabash townships in Fountain County, Mound Township in Warren County, all of Vermillion County and parts of Parke, Clay and Vigo counties.
"I am really excited," Negele said. "I have been preparing for this for years."
She lost to state Rep. F Dale Grubb, D-Covington, two years ago in District 42. Grubb chose not to run this year.
District 13 is a new district that had no incumbent.
"I think I can represent District 13 very well," Negele said. "I think my values and initiative will fit very well."
Negele has been Attica clerk-treasurer nine years.
The District 42 race was almost dead even. Less than 200 votes separated the two candidates.
"It's a pretty 50-50 district," Morrison said of the split between Democrats and Republicans. "I certainly did not expect a blowout either way."
Morrison did well in Fountain County, which is his wife's home. A resident of Seelyville, he is assistant director for recreational facilities at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.
Mark Spelbring, Morrison's opponent and a native of Clay County, recently retired as Parke County Extension director after serving more than 25 years in Parke and Vermillion counties.
Vermillion County
Democrats won the two contested races in heavily Democrat Vermillion County.
Roger Lewis was elected coroner, while longtime commissioner Harry Crossley Sr. will retain his seat in the southern part of the county.
The North Vermillion School Board will have two new board members. Terra Naylor won the six-way battle for a Eugene Township seat, while Mark Swingle was unopposed in Highland Township.
Larry Bemis, who was first elected to the school board when he was 18, will retain the seat in Vermilion Township.
Vermillion County had a 46 percent turnout.

The 10th Annual Liz Hurley Ribbon Run was held the morning of Oct. 19.
A record 6,500 participants signed up for the Ribbon Run, which features a 5K Race and a Survivor's Walk. This event has raised millions of dollars over the years to help fund breast cancer research and raise awareness about the disease.
Liz Hurley, WAFF 48 News anchor and breast cancer survivor, attended the event and spent time with other survivors. The Ribbon Run is another way the community can band together to fight breast cancer. All proceeds from the event will benefit the Liz Hurley Breast Cancer Fund at Huntsville Hospital Foundation.
Thousands crossed the finish line, but Josh Whitehead won 15+, with Andrew Hodges coming in second.
For most people, participating in the Ribbon Run was a personal thing: they either ran on behalf of someone who has had breast cancer or they are a survivor.
Shannon Thompson was diagnosed with breast cancer when she was just 36 years old.
"This time last year, I had just come out of surgery and I had tubes, and there was no light at the end of the tunnel. But I pressed forward and today I am here, I walked, and I am cancer-free," she said.
She had no history of breast cancer in her family and she didn't have the breast cancer gene. "When I was diagnosed, I freaked out and cried like anybody else would, but I made a decision that a positive attitude was what was going to get me through," Thompson said.
It wasn't easy. This past year has been filled with chemo, radiation and surgery. Thompson documented her fight from start to finish on Facebook in hopes of raising awareness.
"Maybe that would encourage others to do self-breast exams and get their mammogram because at 36 years old, most people have never had a mammogram," she said.
Today, Thompson's friends and family joined her in the walk, while others cheered her on. Her story is one of many leaving their mark at this year's Liz Hurley Ribbon Run.
So far, this year's Ribbon Run has brought in $254,000 alone in online donations. This figure does not factor in sales of luminaries or sponsorships. Donations will continue to be accepted through the month of October. All proceeds will benefit the Liz Hurley Breast Cancer Fund at Huntsville Hospital Foundation.

Some emergency vehicle runs may no longer cost Oregon residents. The city held a meeting earlier this week to consider insurance-only billing.
Currently, if residents in Oregon have an emergency and are picked up by an ambulance, they have to pay for that service.
The city of Oregon is exploring the possibility of joining other cities in the region in doing insurance-only billing for ambulance services. This will provide free emergency transportation services for Oregon residents.
City administrator Mike Beazley says the cost of providing the service is increasing, and as the population in Oregon ages, the amount of calls increase. He says residents are already paying for the service through their insurance and this initiative will only make things easier for them.
"The city of Oregon ends up subsidizing the rest of the market when they fail to bill these insurance companies. The important thing to emphasize is that our residents won't pay anything for it, whatever the insurance company proffers or the Medicare or Medicaid system allows," said Beazley.
Beazley says if residents do not have insurance the service is still free. The city of Oregon is planning to adopt this initiative some time in 2013.

PHOENIX (AP) - Arizona's top health official says a remote community long dominated by a polygamist sect is responsible for much of a recent increase in whooping cough in the state.
Department of Health Services Director Will Humble says Arizona has seen an increase of over 300% in the past several years.
Humble says many recent Arizona cases of whooping cough are part of an ongoing outbreak in the Colorado City area of the Arizona Strip, the part of northern Arizona located north of the Grand Canyon.
According to Humble, most of the Colorado City-area cases involve children and most either are unvaccinated or not up to date on their vaccinations.
Whooping cough is also known as pertussis. It's a highly contagious and potentially deadly respiratory disease associated with coughing fits.

The Seahawks are beaming after their upset win last week, but they are not going to pull off another surprise at Soldier Field.
Seattle will challenge the Bears and this will not be the blowout that some are expecting, but Chicago's defense will make a big play or two more than Seattle's "D" does, and that will be the difference.
Playing with a lead for much of the game, Bears offensive coordinator Mike Martz will emphasize the running game and RB Matt Forté will be much more involved than he was the last time Chicago played Seattle, when he had a season-low eight carries.
As long as QB Jay Cutler doesn't set the Bears back with multiple turnovers, they should finish on top and be one win away from a Super Bowl appearance.
Prediction: Bears 24, Seahawks 14

Light aircraft crash at Caernarfon Airport in Gwynedd
Three people have been injured in a light aircraft crash at Caernarfon Airport in Gwynedd.
North Wales Fire & Rescue Service say they received reports of the incident just before 11.30am this morning.
They confirmed one light small aircraft had flipped onto its roof during the incident.
30 crew members and three officers are in attendance, with special appliances from Holyhead, Caernarfon, Llanberis and Pwllheli.
Off-road vehicles from Porthmadog and Llangefni are also at the scene.
