Best Places to Camp in California
1. Big Basin Redwoods State Park, North of Boulder Creek
Your pick of four waterfalls is the payoff for tackling the roller-coaster trails that fan out under gargantuan old-growth trees in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Consider the easy-to-get-to hike-in sites if you want more space and privacy. $25; (831)338-8860; book at reserveamerica.com
2. Camp Edison, Shaver Lake, Northeast of Fresno
Shaver is one of the Sierra lakes created as part of a Southern California Edison hydroelectric project, and Camp Edison's 252 campsites have electricity and cable TV. Half even have Internet.

3. Cold Springs Campground, Sequoia National Park, East of Three Rivers
A glacial-cut valley, Mineral King is surrounded by 12,000-foot granite and shale peaks. Pick a site alongside the Kaweah River or in the shade of aspens.

4. D.L. Bliss State Park, Lake Tahoe
It isn't easy (or cheap) to claim a spot along Tahoe's glorious west shore. But here you can swim and sunbathe at Lester Beach, marvel at Balancing Rock, or simply ogle Tahoe's famously blue waters. Reserve ahead to nab beachside ($35; sites 141–165). From $25; parks.ca.gov or (530)525-7232; book at reserveamerica.com
5. Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, Northeast of Crescent City

6. Kirk Creek Campground, Los Padres National Forest, Big Sur
Scattered across a bluff, the sites are open to the stars and the sea. Pack dress-up clothes and blow the money you saved on lodging with a prix fixe dinner at Post Ranch Inn's Sierra Mar ($$$$; (831)667-2800).$22; campone.com or 805/434-1996; book at recreation.gov
7. Minaret Falls Campground, Inyo National Forest, North of Devils Postpile National Monument
Riverfront sites overlook the Upper Middle Fork of the San Joaquin River; some have views of Minaret Falls. The short hike to the Devils Postpile lava formation is a must. $20 (plus $7 transit fee); no reservations; (760)924-5500.
8. Russian Gulch State Park, North of Mendocino
On the rugged Northern California coast, this campground offers an up-close look at Mendocino's natural beauty, like at Devil's Punch Bowl, where the ocean surges through a huge hole in the headlands. Don't miss the hike to Russian Gulch Falls. $25; parks.ca.gov or (707)937-5804; book at reserveamerica.com
9. Sabrina Campground, Inyo National Forest, West of Bishop
Bishop Creek flows past, and 2 miles away is trout-filled Lake Sabrina. Trails lead into the John Muir Wilderness with access to mountain lakes and the Sierra crest. Dine alfresco on hamburgers and homemade pie on the patio of the Lake Sabrina Boat Landing Cafe ($; (760)873-7425). $21; no reservations; (760)873-2500.
10. Saddlebag Lake Campground, Inyo National Forest, East of Yosemite National Park
At 10,000 feet, this is the highest drive-to campground in the state and has a dramatic, above-the-treeline feel. Insider tip: Just ¼ mile from the campground, you can hop a water taxi ($10 round-trip) across Saddlebag Lake for an easy hike into the stunning 20 Lakes Basin. $19; no reservations; (760)924-5500.

Ladies We Love: Stephanie Nelson
January 13, 2010 at 2:14 pm , by Sonia Harmon
After working in the corporate world for ten years, Stephanie Nelson decided to become a stay-at-home mom. With her attention focused at home, she eventually realized how much money she was spending on groceries and decided that her family budget needed an overhaul. So she developed a savings strategy—based on using coupons—and by 2001, CouponMom.com was born. Over the years she's garnered a huge following (1.7 million subscribers!) and now she's the author of The Coupon Mom's Guide to Cutting Your Grocery Bills in Half. In the book she shares her shopping techniques, from where to find the best coupons to how to save in the dairy department, as well as budget-friendly recipes. We also love that Stephanie started a program called Cut Out Hunger, which encourages shoppers to donate the money they've saved to food shelters across the country.
What makes me a lady: I try to follow the philosophy that it's better to be nice than to be right. You don't have to win every battle, especially at the expense of being mean.
Favorite guilty pleasure: Eating popcorn, drinking diet coke and reading a novel at 4 in the afternoon.
Three things on my life list: 1. Travel overseas to neat places with my family. 2. Learn how to play golf. 3. Learn how to cook really good meals.
If I could have a superpower, it would be: To be able to understand and connect with people immediately.
Ladies I admire: Ordinary women I know in my community who selflessly devote their time to helping people in need without accolades, fame or fortune. I know women who give all of their time to raising support for foster children, helping victims of child abuse, and helping homeless families without being paid a dime. They are heroes.

Charlottesville city planners and the planning commission are one step closer to finalizing the city's comprehensive plan. Tuesday night, planners hashed out some specifics in the draft they have been working on for months.
They worked on making the language more understandable and even made simple word changes.
They found that the land use chapter of the plan needs some more restructuring, while other chapters are closer to being finalized.
"I think [Tuesday] went really well. We've been working with the commission for many months on the comp plan and this has been another opportunity to have them respond to a draft based on comments they provided. I think they gave us some good insight and we're much closer than we've been," said Missy Creasy, planning manager.
The planning commission will have another work session next week.
It hopes to have a public hearing on the comprehensive plan in April.

Cheyenne is an American western television series of 108 black-and-white episodes broadcast on ABC (American Broadcasting Company) from 1955 to 1963. The show was the first hour-long western, and in fact the first hour-long dramatic series of any kind, with continuing characters, to last more than one season. It was also the first series to be made by a major Hollywood film studio which did not derive from its established film properties,[4] and the first of a long chain of Warner Brothers original series produced by William T. Orr.
Series history[edit]
The series began as a part of Warner Brothers Presents, a program that alternated three different series in rotation. In its first year, Cheyenne traded broadcast weeks with Casablanca and Kings Row.[5] Thereafter, Cheyenne was overhauled by new producer Roy Huggins and left the umbrella of WBP. The show starred Clint Walker, a native of Illinois, as Cheyenne Bodie, a physically large cowboy wandering the American West. The first episode, about robbers pretending to be Good Samaritans, is titled "Mountain Fortress" and features James Garner as a guest star. The episode reveals that Bodie's parents were massacred by Cheyenne Indians, who then reared him. Bodie maintained a positive and understanding attitude toward the Native Americans.
Cheyenne ran from 1955 to 1963, except for a hiatus when Walker went on strike for better terms (1958–1959); among other demands, the actor wanted increased residuals, a reduction of the 50-percent cut of personal appearance payments that had to be turned over to Warner, and a release from the restriction of recording music only for the company's own label.[6] The interim saw the introduction of a virtual Bodie-clone called Bronco Layne, played by Ty Hardin, a native of Texas. Hardin was featured as the quasi main character during Bodie's absence. When Warners renegotiated Walker's contract and the actor returned to the show in 1959, Bronco was spun off as a show in its own right and became independently successful.
The two series alternated in the same time slot from 1958 to 1962, with Bronco as the junior partner (only a snippet of his theme song was heard in the opening credits, as a kind of aural footnote to Cheyenne's). Occasionally both Cheyenne and Bronco appeared together in the same episode, both deadly serious as they worked together. Even after returning to the program — having been prohibited from seeking other work during the long contract negotiation — Walker was unhappy continuing to play a role he felt he had exhausted, complaining to reporters that he felt like "a caged animal."[6]
Though Cheyenne aired for seven years, the series had only 108 episodes because it was in repeated alternation with other programs and was out of production during Clint Walker's contract dispute with Warner Brothers.
At the conclusion of the sixth season, a special episode was aired. Called "A Man Named Ragan", it was a pilot for a program called The Dakotas, starring Larry Ward, Chad Everett, Jack Elam,and Michael Greene, that was to have replaced Cheyenne in the middle of the next season. However, because Cheyenne Bodie never appeared in "Ragan", the two programs are only tenuously linked.[2]
Walker reprised the Cheyenne Bodie character in 1991 for the TV-movie The Gambler Returns: The Luck of the Draw and also played Cheyenne in an episode of Kung Fu: The Legend Continues in 1995.

Broadcast history[edit]
ABC televised the show from 1955 to 1962: September 1955-September 1959 Tuesday 7:30-8:30 P.M.; September 1959-December 1962, Monday 7:30-8:30 P.M.; April 1963-September 1963, Friday 7:30-8:30 P.M. In its last season, Cheyenne still drew good ratings that forced the cancellation of the new comedy/drama It's a Man's World on NBC, co-starring Glenn Corbett, Michael Burns, Ted Bessell, and Randy Boone. In the spring of 1960, Cheyenne outdistanced singer Kate Smith's return to television on CBS's The Kate Smith Show, which was canceled after some six months on the air.
Cheyenne is now[when?] shown twice every weekday on the Encore western channels.
DVD releases[edit]
Warner Home Video has released the first season on DVD in Region 1. Seasons 2-7 have been released via their Warner Archive Collection. These are manufacture-on-demand (MOD) releases on DVD-R discs. The seventh and final season was released on November 12, 2013.[7]

Film festival director acquitted of sex charges by Bradford Crown Court jury
Updated 3:31pm Thursday 23rd January 2014 in News By Jenny Loweth, T&A Reporter
A former director of Bradford's Bite the Mango film festival was today acquitted by a Bradford Crown Court jury of charges of sexually assaulting two girls, including the rape of one.
It took the jury little more than an hour to find Adeni Rutter not guilty of all six allegations he faced.
Mr Rutter, 42, was discharged from the dock by the Recorder of Bradford, Judge Roger Thomas QC.
He had denied four charges of indecently assaulting a young girl in Keighley and one of raping her several years later when she was 14. He also pleaded not guilty to groping another girl, about ten years ago when she was 15 or 16.
During his defence the jury was told he had never touched either girl inappropriately and could not explain why they had made up the allegations.
He had originally been charged with 14 offences but the indictment was amended after the close of his defence case.
Mr Rutter, known as Addy and now of Fairfax Crescent, Southowram, Halifax, had also told the jury he had no criminal convictions or cautions.
The jury was told he had lived in Keighley before joining the Army when he was 16. He later worked for the National Media Museum marketing department and then became director of the museum's film department.
He was director of the Bite the Mango festival for two years but was made redundant by the museum in 2010.

If you need additioal help or have questions that are not answered below please visit our help desk.
How Does SmokeTip Work?
SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette works like traditional cigarette smoking – it delivers the enjoyment of smoking (the touch and taste) without the harmful 2000+ chemicals or problems caused by tobacco smoke. The exciting new SmokeTip product design is the key to making this happen. There is no flame with SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette – the small electronic "cigarette" includes a rechargeable battery and replaceable cartridges that provide the smoking experience, without tobacco! Inhaling on the SmokeTip gives all the same sensations of smoking. However, the unit releases only simulated smoke (vapor mist), that evaporates in the air.
How do you use SmokeTip?
To start using the unit, just attach a fully charged battery to a cartridge and you are ready to go!
What does SmokeTip taste like?
Most users say the flavor is just like a cigarette, without the lingering odor. Non users report that there is no noticeable odor emitted when standing or sitting near someone using SmokeTip.
Why do people use SmokeTip?
• Can use in more places
What are the nicotine strengths of SmokeTip's cartridges?
SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette offers nicotine cartridges in 4 strengths to suit your individual needs and tastes:
Does SmokeTip cost more or less than traditional smoking products?
You will save 60-75% compared to traditional cigarettes. A 2 pack a day smoker can save over $250 a month.
How long does a SmokeTip cartridge last?
Results will vary depending on the intensity of a person's average inhalation. One SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette atomizer cartridge will last the equivalent of approximately 1.25 packs of cigarettes. Should you experience little or no vapor, ensure that your battery is fully charged and properly attached to the device.
How long does the SmokeTip battery last before needing a recharge?
SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette uses a special 3.6V long life lithium battery, which is actually the top of the electronic cigarette. Depending upon usage, each SmokeTip rechargeable battery will last 3 hours to 3 days. The life of the battery is greatly dependant on usage. The indicator light tip will blink 30 times for about 9 seconds when the battery is getting low on power. We encourage all users to keep an extra battery available during high usage times or no access to recharging.
How do I buy refill cartridges?
That's easy! CLICK HERE
What are the Ingredients?
SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette atomized cartridges contain water, nicotine (16mg, 12mg, 6mg & 0mg strengths), propylene glycol (a water-based ingredient found in many medicines & health care products), tobacco flavoring, and other ingredients for flavor. NONE of the ingredients in our cartridges have been found to be carcinogenic.
Where does the "smoke" go?
SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette emits no "smoke" – it is a vapor mist that evaporates into the air within seconds.
Can I use SmokeTip anywhere?
Since SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette has no flame, contains no tobacco, and emits no secondhand smoke, it is not a form of smoking that would be prohibited under laws prohibiting smoking in public. SmokeTip customers have used the product without issue or complaint in restaurants, traditional workplaces, and many other locations.
I noticed the cartridge gets very warm sometimes, is this normal?
When your cartridge is running very low or is out of solution the atomizer (which heats the solution) will get very warm. When you first notice this, it may be time to change the cartridge. Also, excessive use will cause the filter to get warm - use caution.
My battery does not seem to be working right - what can I do?
The smallest dust particles can effect the battery charging process. A quick way to try and fix this problem is to blow very hard and draw very hard from the battery with no cartridge attached. This in most cases will clear the battery. CLICK HERE to download a PDF explaining this procedure.
Is SmokeTip a smoking cessation product?
SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette is an alternative to smoking. SmokeTip has never been tested or proven to be a cessation device.
Is SmokeTip right for anyone?
SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette is NOT a product for anyone under legal smoking age. SmokeTip is not to be sold to persons under the legal smoking age. Additionally, SmokeTip should not be used by anyone who is pregnant or has health concerns without first consulting the advice of a physician.
Is there anything I should be aware of when using SmokeTip?
SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette products are intended for use by persons of legal smoking age, not by nonsmokers or by children, women who are pregnant or breast feeding, or persons with or at risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, or taking medicine for depression or asthma. Consult a physician if you experience nicotine misuse symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, diarrhea, weakness and rapid heartbeat. If you smoke tobacco products, you are encouraged to stop. Please keep SmokeTip Electronic Cigarette products out of the reach of children and pets; ingestion of certain pieces can present a choking hazard, and ingestion of the non-vaporized concentrated ingredients in the cartridges can be poisonous. The statements made within have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration, and these statements and SmokeTip products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Is there any additional information for product use or replacement guidelines?
Please visit http://help.smoketip.com for additional product information and forums
Are there other cautions to consider when using an e-cigarette?
As with any electrical device, this unit should be charged on a fire-resistant surface. A bad connection may increase the risk of overheating and make the unit very hot. For issues, please contact us immediately. Do not leave unattended for safety purposes. For battery or cartridge leaks - do not continue using - place in a plastic bag for replacement. As with any electronic device, prevent it from mixing with metal articles in your pocket, purse or other bags - this will damage the battery and cartridge. We do have carry cases to prevent this issue.

BROWNSBURG — Police here are investigating the death of a 4-month-old girl at an unlicensed daycare facility.
The girl died July 18 at a home daycare, that Det. Sgt. Jennifer Pyatt with the Brownsburg Police Department said was unlicensed. Pyatt said the owner of the daycare was issued a "cease and desist notice" on July 24.
The child was found unresponsive in her play pen in the Lake Ridge subdivision home. Pyatt said Brownsburg Fire Territory was called to the home around 10 a.m. CPR was performed before the infant was rushed to IU Health West Hospital in Avon, where she was pronounced dead.
According to Indiana Code 12-17.2-5-1, a person may not operate a home child care without a license issued if there are more than six unrelated children in the home.
Pyatt said there were 10 to 14 children and five adults in the home at the time of the incident.
Pyatt said no charges have been filed and foul play is not necessarily suspected, but they are awaiting autopsy results from the Hendricks County Coroner.
"This is a death investigation," she said. "We are looking into every possibility."
The autopsy was done on July 19 and Pyatt said that it takes four to six weeks to get results.

By Leslie Combemale aka Cinema Siren
Game of Thrones' Kit Harington and Emily Browning make one hot duo in this entertaining historical disaster flick.
When HBO started the campaign for season 4 of Game of Thrones with the ubiquitous tagline "Winter Is Coming," little did they know it would be prophetic of the mini-ice age experienced by much of the country in the last month.
Still, for those who can't wait for the Thrones premiere, they can experience another facet of actor and sword-wielding heartthrob Kit Harington, aka Jon Snow, who stars in the new Paul W.S. Anderson flick featuring one of the worst disasters in history,
As much a sword and sandals story of gladiators as it is one of the last days of the doomed ancient seaside, Pompeii, which is being shown in 3D, is a perfect way to feed your need for death, distraction and the highly buffed-out and newly brawny Harington, who revealed in an interview with Cinema Siren he found his way into his character through systematically chiseling his body into that of a gladiator.
With its historically accurate layout of buildings and interiors, and its heavily researched volcanic eruption and all accompanying events (earthquake, tidal wave), and its highly entertaining but violent and kill-heavy gladiatorial sequences, the film is non-stop action all the way through to the rather curt and predictable ending.
With the exception of Titanic, movies released in the disaster movie genre have rarely gotten good reviews from critics. Hindsight make The Towering Inferno and Poseidon Adventure classics, but the nature of a disaster flick is that it include the kind of histrionics, fatal bravery and visual effects that critics sometimes think automatically remove them from consideration for serious viewing. Cinema Siren says pshaw.
On a bad day in need of personal realignment, there is nothing more cathartic and fun than an over-the-top scene of people running for their lives. In Pompeii, there is, of course, a love story a bit in the style of Titanic, with Aussie ingenue Emily Browning playing spirited aristo Cassia, who finds fascination in slave-turned-gladiator Milo.
Milo has grown up a slave after being captured as a boy when his clan of horse whisperers are decimated by Roman ultra-baddie Corvus, played by a scenery chewing Kiefer Sutherland. They run across each other again when a vengeful and adult Milo is brought to fight in Pompeii's arena against the best killers outside of Rome.
Corvus is the guest of Pompeii leader Severus, and has cast his lecherous eye on Cassia, who would rather take a scandalous horse ride through the open fields with Milo, grasping the muscled abs of her new potential paramour. Milo, in turn, is increasingly called upon to save various and sundry potential victims as Vesuvius erupts, aided by his new gladiator pal Atticus (played with hulking grace by Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) in a race against time and nature's nasty impulse to ruin frescos and perfectly good aqueducts.
Is Pompeii silly? You bet. Should the superior English-trained acting skill of Kit Harington, who began his career as the first lead in War Horse in London's West End, as well as the magnetism of Kiefer Sutherland and wispy-haired waif Browning override any doubt, getting you to sit in your local theater wearing goofy glasses? Absolutely!
Director Anderson's lifelong obsession with Pompeii and personal aesthetic, which leans towards the grandiose, has resulted in historically accurate live sets, impressive explosions and copious amounts of falling ash.
This movie is for anyone fascinated with this particular event in history and what led to the many victims frozen in time that were captured in the moment of destruction. This is a ripping "actioner" where a wronged slave does right by killing and killing again in the arena, then takes part in a sweet love story that gives new meaning to bad timing. The legion of fans of Kit Harington will enjoy filling the time as they wait for that first episode of the 4th season of Game of Thrones.

Published in 2000, "The Tipping Point" rapidly reached a tipping point. In the blink of an eye, it seems, Malcolm Gladwell's argument that social epidemics are spread by a small number of special people, whom he calls mavens, connectors, and salesmen, became conventional wisdom.
According to Jonah Berger, an assistant professor of marketing at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, conventional wisdom is wrong. More important than the messenger, Berger points out, is the message. In "Contagious," he identifies six ingredients or principles that are associated with messages, products, or ideas that go viral. Summarized in an easy-to-remember acronym (STEPPS), they are: Social Currency, Triggers, Emotion, Public, Practical Value, and Stories.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Isaac Redman suffered a concussion in Sunday night's game against the Baltimore Ravens and will not return, according to the team.
Redman had rushed for five yards on one carry on the night before he was removed from the game for evaluations. After extensive tests, Redman was declared to have a concussion and will not return on Sunday night because of the head injury.
Redman is among a bevy of Steelers to record some rushing yards on the night, but quarterback Byron Leftwich is surprisingly leading the team's leading rusher at half, with one rush for 31 yards that resulted in the Steelers' lone touchdown of the night.
Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall has three carries for eight yards, while Jonathan Dwyer has five carries for 15 yards at half.
The Steelers trail the Ravens, 10-7, at half in a key AFC North showdown between the two teams. The Ravens scored their touchdown on a Jacoby Jones punt return for a touchdown.

49ers DE Justin Smith has a partially torn left triceps, according to Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee.
Smith suffered the injury in Week 15 against the Patriots and did not play last Sunday against the Seahawks.
The Niners are hopeful Smith can play through the pain in the playoffs, as the injury likely requires surgery in the offseason, Barrows reports.
Ricky Jean Francois started for Smith and had six tackles, though the 49ers struggled to slow down Seattle's attack. Smith was named to his fourth consecutive Pro Bowl this week.

Police in Stroud remind residents about home safety after burglary spate
4:31pm Thursday 16th January 2014 in News
POLICE are reminding residents in Stroud about the importance of home safety after a series of burglaries in the district.
A number of houses in Bussage and Chalford have been targeted and officers are reminding the public to be extra-vigilant through the winter months.
Inspector Andy Poole said "Sometimes it is obvious that no-one is home, and advertising your property as vacant can be a great opportunity for a burglar.
Some simple precautions can help prevent you from being a victim of crime"
Those simple precautions can include:
• Leaving a light on in the house or getting a timed socket for the light to come on
• Net curtains to prevent easy viewing into your home.
• Adequate security lighting around the home.
• Strong and Secure Locks on doors and windows. Making sure you include gates leading to the rear of your property.
• Defensive Planting (thorns, bushes) can prevent casual intrusion.
• Mark all valuable property with either an Ultra-Violet pen or a forensic marking kit. Make sure you mark all valuable property in the house and the shed/outbuildings.
• Use a padlock on your shed. Some burglars take advantage of your shed being unlocked. Especially if you leave a lot of expensive garden equipment. Maybe consider a shed alarm.

VIERA, Fla. (AP) -- Washington shortstop Ian Desmond and second baseman Danny Espinosa seem to be always communicating -- on and off the field.
Their lockers are next to each other and in the Nationals' clubhouse they're always talking about something.
Desmond says they "keep pretty much an open relationship." He says they have good communication and talk about everything, "hitting, fielding . music."
More often than not, though, their conversation is about defense. They bounce ideas off each other about where to position themselves in certain scenarios and reminding each other where they like the ball when trying to make the turn at second base.
It's what good double-play combinations do, and with Desmond and Espinosa, the Nationals have a potentially dynamite tandem in their middle infield.

Today, Clarion University of Pennsylvania released its workforce plan.
"The actions in this plan are designed to ensure that Clarion University is positioned for the future," said Dr. Karen Whitney, Clarion University president. "At the forefront of this plan is for our students to graduate and succeed in their professional careers, thanks to the marketable skills they learn at Clarion."
Although some programs will no longer accept new students, the students currently enrolled in those programs will be able to complete their degrees.
Whitney recognizes that this plan will impact the employment of individuals.
"These difficult decisions do not reflect the quality of the affected individuals' work. Rather, they are necessary for alignment of staffing with university program needs," she said.
By simultaneously investing in growth and growth-supporting areas; eliminating areas of declining enrollments and activities that have not yielded desired results; and building enrollment through increased student retention, the university will address the budget deficit as follows:
$8.3 million reduction of expenses in specific reductions of the workforce;
$2 million increase in revenue through specific increases in student retention; and
$1.7 million reduction of expenses as a result of increased operational efficiencies and improvements.
Meeting the university's program needs includes investing in the growth areas of business, science and technology, and health professions, and realigning its traditionally strong teacher education professional program.
Highlights of the plan include:
The development of a Doctorate of Nursing Practice program, as well as bachelor of science degrees in criminal justice administration, nursing, and nutrition and fitness.
The realignment of the current College of Education and Human Services to form separate schools, the School of Education and the School of Health Sciences. The School of Education will focus on programs that best prepare teachers for the changing instructional profession. The School of Health Sciences will be comprised of programs currently in the School of Nursing and Allied Health, as well as athletic training, sports and wellness; communication and speech disorders; health and physical education; and rehabilitative sciences.
The integration of programs of the Center for Academic Enrichment into a new, one-stop Center for Student Success. The center will include: academic tutoring and testing; advising; career development and exploration; Clarion orientation and transition; early warning and student intervention services; first- and second-year experience programs; internship and external placement services; office of student disability accommodation; programs for underrepresented students and students of color; programs for academically underperforming students; TRIO grant-funded student support programs; and veterans' support.
The restructure of the College of Arts and Sciences, combining departments to reduce the total number of departments to five. Among them, the departments of communication and theatre will be combined to provide more opportunity for collaboration and sharing of expertise. The utilization of theatre faculty in communication instruction brings more tenured faculty into the classroom.
The discontinuation of two bachelor's degree programs, music education and language education/French, which will be placed in moratorium – the programs will no longer accept new students, but students already in the programs will receive the classes and support they need, through graduation.
"The new School of Education will build upon current strengths and opportunities which reflect student enrollment and employer demands," said Dr. Ron Nowaczyk, Clarion University provost and vice president for academic affairs. "In addition to the continued development of credentials leading to licensure, the school will also develop educational programs – from certificates to degrees – that are not focused on teacher certification."
The plan identifies 35.75 currently filled positions that are designated for elimination. Of those, 18.75 positions will be eliminated through retrenchment/furlough; seven by reassignment; nine by retirement; and one by reorganization. Beyond that, 14 currently vacant positions will be eliminated, and seven new faculty positions will be advertised for a net total reduction of 42.75 positions.
As part of the plan, the university will:
Introduce a new health and wellness model during the current academic year, in which student health services, counseling services, drug and alcohol education and intramurals and recreation will be combined under a single area with one director.
Appoint a committee comprised of student-athletes, coaches, community members and university administrators to review the current structure of athletics programs and to recommend, by July 1, 2014, a sustainable, tiered intercollegiate sports program.
Through these actions, Clarion University will be better positioned to achieve its mission to provide transformative, lifelong learning opportunities through innovative, nationally recognized programs delivered in inclusive, student-centered environments; its vision, to be a leader in high-impact educational practices that benefit students, employers and community partners; and its goals, to encourage student, faculty and staff success, to promote a diverse student body and employee workforce, to expand our engagement with society, and to thrive financially.
To view the workforce plan in its entirety, click here.
Clarion University is the high-achieving, nationally recognized, comprehensive university that delivers a personal and challenging academic experience.

NEW ORLEANS - One police expert said that not since Rodney King has he seen a worse case of police brutality against a man in handcuffs than what happened to Shane Gates on Nov. 16, 2006. But according to Gates, a 37-year-old law office manager, his injuries were only the beginning of a long nightmarish cover-up by St. Tammany parish authorities.
Photographs of Gates a few days after he was pulled over and arrested by St. Tammy Parish sheriff's deputies show how doctors used 27 stitches to sew up a snaking laceration that almost tore off Gates' left eyelid. Blood stains cover the sweater and shorts he was wearing that night.
Gates said the attack came without warning after he repeatedly tried to lift his head from the hood of a deputy's car because it was burning his face. He was being held against the cruiser – in handcuffs – after a traffic stop allegedly turned into a wild high-speed chase.
"They held me down on the hood of the car which was still running and very hot. And they were smushing my face into the hood of the car," he said.
As Gates recalled, when he tried to lift his head, he was first pepper-sprayed, then thrown to the asphalt where a deputy repeatedly pounded his face into the pavement.
"The officer grabbed me and spun me around, threw me to the ground. He then jumped on top of me and he held me there – while I'm handcuffed – and he grabbed the back of my head by the scruff," Gates said. "And he just started smacking my face into I-12 until I was unconscious "
Police report alleges Gates was drunk, Defense says he had just bought new car
The police report by sheriff's deputies, and the account brought to trial recently by the St. Tammany district attorney's office, states that Gates was stopped by Deputy Nathan Miller after a chase that ended with him stumbling out of his car drunk.
"The driver and sole occupant of the GTO, later identified as Shane Gates, after realizing that a sheriff's unit was behind him, suddenly accelerated to 104 miles per hour," the report reads.
Later in the narrative, the report states that Deputy Miller "observed an extremely obvious odor of some unknown alcoholic beverage emitting from Gates' breath and person. While trying to assist Gates from the shoulder of the road, Gates grabbed (Deputy) Miller and started wrestling with him."
Miller then called for backup and, according to the report, Deputy Roger Gottardi soon arrived at the scene. When Gates was combative and resisted arrest, Gottardi reported falling on the suspect trying to subdue him.
"Gottardi was able to bring Gates down and hold him there until other deputies could arrive," the report states. The narrative goes on to say that Gates suffered a "one half-inch laceration."
But a close investigation of the case raises questions about the sheriff's version of what happened, starting with the photographs of Gates taken several days later. In the photos, Gates' left eyelid shows a wound far more extensive than half an inch long, an injury that required Gates to be sent from Louisiana Heart Hospital in Lacombe to a second emergency room in Mississippi that had a plastic surgeon on call.
The DWI charge against Gates stems from medical records that reportedly show he registered a .273 blood alcohol level, more than three times the legal limit, and a level that experts say makes it nearly impossible to drive.
Gates denies drinking any alcohol. Evidence gathered by his legal team shows that when Gates was stopped, he was behind the wheel of a brand new Pontiac GTO he had just purchased just 20 minutes earlier from a Slidell car dealership.
Defense questions evidence
One of Gates' attorneys, James Williams, said the DWI allegation is ludicrous.
"Unless you had a syringe injecting the Jack Daniels directly into your veins from the car dealership to the stop, and even then, I think it would probably be impossible," Williams said.
Williams said the DWI allegation is just one of many troubling elements in the case.
For example, the medical reports showing the blood test have mysteriously disappeared.
"There is no evidence that they ever did any type of test whatsoever," Gates contends. "The .273 number is just a made-up number that fit the story so it fit the story that I can't remember what I did."
Gates and his lawyers also contest the chase, one in which he allegedly topped 100 miles an hour twice and trucks off the road, as fiction.
According to Williams, radio dispatch tapes show that the entire stop actually unfolded over about half a mile, and the deputy never even used his siren.
"So this big bad flight that gives rise to this felony flight jury trial lasted for six-tenths of a mile and 80 seconds, at the end of which, we get a beating unlike anything I've seen in my career," Williams said.
Some facts are undisputed.
The deputy who stopped Gates, Miller, admitted he later resigned from the sheriff's office after he was found guilty of violating several departmental rules, including falsifying testimony and sleeping on the job.
And the deputy who caused Gates' injuries, Gottardi, has since been demoted from detective for an unspecified violation.
"All of those factors combine to show just how incredible this is," Williams said. "It's egregious. It's frustrating. It makes me very disappointed in our legal system….The district attorney should not be prosecuting the victim. The district attorney should be prosecuting the perpetrators."
Former Supreme Court Justice weighs in
Williams isn't the only veteran legal mind to arrive at that conclusion. Former Louisiana Supreme Court Chief Justice Pascal Calogero said he was so outraged by the case, he joined Gates' legal team.
"Naturally it made me upset," Calogero said. "I've been part of the judicial system for an awful long time and I saw an injustice, personally, and that's why I took the case."
Despite the contradictory versions of what happened that night, Gates was cited for several violations, including DWI, obstruction of a highway, felony flight from an officer and resisting arrest.
St. Tammany Sheriff Jack Strain defended the action of his deputies. In a statement, Strain stated, "I know that everything we have done in this case has been ethical and appropriate. We look forward to having the evidence presented at the defendant's trial for driving while intoxicated and resisting arrest."
District Attorney Walter Reed's office said it could not comment on a pending case.
Gates said he is still searching for answers six years later. He already has undergone two surgeries, and is awaiting another one that he hopes will repair nerve damage to his face. In court, the obstruction of a highway charge was never pursued. Two charges are pending, the DWI and resisting arrest allegations.
When Shane Gates was faced a jury in July on a felony unlawful flight charge, prosecutors threw most of their evidence at him during the course of a five-day trial.
The verdict: not guilty. In fact, the jury returned their verdict within half an hour, one of the speediest acquittals in St. Tammany in recent memory.
"A week-long trial in this case, the jury comes back probably before they can sit down in the jury room and say, "Can we all see how ridiculous this is?" Williams commented. "They came back before they even had a chance to put down their purses and settle in. We prevailed. And prevailed in a venue where a lot of people don't prevail."
Gates' legal team believes the trial was pursued – after multiple delays over the past six years – primarily to block a federal civil rights lawsuit that Gates filed against the sheriff's and district attorney's offices.
"All this," Williams said, "is an opportunity to delay the inevitable justice that's coming in the federal court from civil rights violations that arise out of this egregious beating."
Calogero agrees.
"The state, at least the sheriff in St. Tammany Parish, is I think avoiding paying expenses for this boy's injuries," Calogero said.
The civil suit was filed in October 2007, eleven months after the traffic stop. By law, the suit has been put on hold because of the St. Tammany district attorney's office continues its prosecution of Gates.
Gates thought he would be able to go forward with his claims after his acquittal in July. But he has since been notified that the DA's office is pressing ahead with the DWI and resisting arrest charge. No date has been set, but as misdemeanors, the district attorney will be allowed to present the case to a judge rather than a jury.
Williams believes that putting Gates through a second trial would be a violation of his Constitutional rights against double jeopardy, which prohibits putting a defendant on trial twice on the same charges.
"I think it has all kinds of double jeopardy implications," Williams said. "As everyone knows, you can't be tried twice for the same crime in America."
WWL-TV legal analyst Chick Foret agrees that prosecutors might run into a double jeopardy problem.
"It seems to me that the evidence is going to be almost the same, if not the same," Foret said. "Clearly, to me, you'll have the same witnesses, you'll have the same evidence, and you'll have the same set of facts."
One key element of the resisting arrest charge is a letter requesting the charge that appears to come from Miller, the ex-deputy who stopped Gates. But during sworn testimony Miller said he knew nothing about the letter.
Chuck Hughes is an attorney for the sheriff's office, and his law firm also represents the insurance company that provides the sheriff's liability policy. In one courtroom exchange, Hughes admitted that the resisting arrest charge could protect against an insurance claim by Gates.
In one portion of the transcript of his testimony, Hughes said, "It would be in the best interest of the sheriff's office to have a resisting arrest conviction in a matter where there was a civil case, yes."
Calogero said, "I think perpetuating this, keeping him out of trial for his damages under these circumstances is just not justified."
But Sheriff Strain sees the complaints from Gates quite differently, saying he is posturing in order to leverage damages from the civil rights suit.
In a written statement, Strain said, "This is an unfortunate example of a defense attorney attempting to use the media to sway public opinion and strong-arm the government into settling lawsuits."

Git - .gitignore issue while switching branches :(
Hello all,
I have this project with two git branches. Dev and Master.
For some reason, when I checkout master, and checkout again dev, I notice that dev has lost files that where being ignored. Those files are present on master however.
I end up added some of those files back to dev, but now I need to look for another file on master and place it on dev, but I get (something like):
"Error: Can't checkout master. Some files are untracked.
I know they are untracked on dev. They were added on .gitignore a lot before, while before those checkout commands!!
1) Why am I having this msg ?
How can I solve this, in a way that, files ignored on DEV should also be ignored on MASTEr
I can provide all details you may require in order to help me out.
Please advice - I'm kind of stuck here... anything may help.

By Mike Redmond
— I'm sure we've all seen the commercial: A guy stands at his grill while the tag of his underwear makes all kinds of snarky remarks until Michael Jordan comes along and saves the day by ripping out the tag and throwing it into the fire.
And perhaps you've had the same question as me, namely: When did tags on your underpants turn into such a big deal? Also, when did they start talking?
Actually, I've been wondering about this for a couple of years now, ever since I started seeing men's unmentionables in the stores with big, bold declarations of taglessness on the outside of the package.
Between that and the commercials, you'd think tagless underwear was an innovation to rival Alexander Graham Bell's telephone, Thomas Edison's light bulb, and Samuel F.B. Morse's electric telegraph.
Why, I can hear the speech even now: "Today we learn of an amazing development, destined to change the course of history, proof yet again that there's no match for American ingenuity, no obstacle that cannot be overcome with good old Yankee grit: Underwear with no tag in it. Just think of it. Decades of underwear tags rendered obsolete with one stupendous achievement.
"All across this great land, men and women are cheering. Bonfires are blazing, church bells are ringing. Babies are being tossed into the air and in the majority of cases, caught.
"We shed a tear of joy as we stand proudly to declare our undying appreciation for this glorious news. American tagless underwear manufacturers, a grateful nation thanks you."
Looks to me like what's being manufactured here is a big load of what we used to shovel out of the barn.
I, for one, have heard no clamor for tagless underwear. Not that I spend a lot of time listening for people to mention it. Let's just say it has never come up in my social circle. And as an experienced underwear wearer (underwearer?) I can also tell you that not once have I ever thought to myself, "Boy, I wish my underpants were tagless."
My boxer briefs have never made snarky comments about my ability to cook on a grill. For that matter, I can't recall a time when my underwear tags made any kind of comment to me. And if they did, I don't think I'd be calling a basketball player for help. Not while there are psychiatrists on the planet.
What we have here, I think, is a solution to a made-up problem. People love to feel aggrieved, you know. In fact, there are lots of people who aren't happy unless they're miserable. They just don't always know what they're miserable about. This creates a perfect opportunity for a creative underwear company to swoop in and make a declaration about underwear tags, as if they were the root of all our suffering, and then offer a solution to a problem we didn't know we had.
Or maybe I'm wrong. Maybe tagless underpants really are an innovation like Bell's phone, Edison's bulb, and Morse's telegraph. In that case, let me point out that all those things are obsolete. If tagless underwear follows the same pattern, it won't be long until it, too, disappears and we all go commando.
And no, I do not want to see a commercial for that.

ANDERSON — School leaders and students, police and education experts convened at Anderson High School on Thursday to begin laying the groundwork for new anti-bullying programs.
The Indiana General Assembly this year passed legislation that changes the definition of bullying, and requires school districts to compile data and create new reporting and training programs for students and staff.
Thursday's meeting was the first discussion at the high school to discuss the new mandates and craft age-appropriate bullying education classes for all students by an October 15 deadline.
Anderson Police Chief Larry Crenshaw noted that when he "walked the halls" as an officer 16 years ago, bullying was characterized by "true physical violence."
In the years since then, however, the problem has become more subtle, but no less of a problem. With the rise of social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram, so-called cyber-bullying has become a national problem, highlighted by several suicides of teenagers who were subjected to online humiliation.
The rise of social media has changed popular definitions of what constitutes bullying, but students on Tuesday said differences in clothing, economic status, sexual orientation, and appearance are still the main drives.
"Most of what I've seen is if somebody is different in either appearance or the clothing," said incoming freshman Joe Kirkpatrick. "There's a lot of backlash."
Newly-appointed Anderson High School Principal Terry Thompson said a uniform dress code was established to try and minimize some of those differences, but noted he's heard about gray areas and inconsistent enforcement of the dress code.
"Our job is to make sure, because it's policy, that the rules will be enforced consistently, and you will hear that over and over again," Thompson said.
Despite a uniform dress code, however, students know who has money and who doesn't, members of the panel said. And race and sexual orientation are factors.

While many U.S. retailers are still weighing whether to grow internationally, e-commerce businesses outside of the U.S. aren't necessarily waiting around.
While many U.S. retailers are still weighing whether to grow internationally, e-commerce businesses outside of the U.S. aren't necessarily waiting around. Quickly sprouting around international consumers are online stores from large brand name consumer goods makers to smaller e-commerce sites. And it may have taken about 10 years for flash-sale sites to develop in the U.S., but businesses have hopped on board that model elsewhere.
Take Turkey. A country with a population of about 77 million people, it had the seventh-largest online population in Europe numbering 17.8 million in April 2009, according to comScore. In that same month, Internet users in Turkey spent the most time online, 32 hours per visitor, and consumed the most pages, 3,044, than any European country. This past May, comScore measured Turkey's Internet audience at 22 million, up by 25% from about a year ago.
In May, one of the top 20 most-visited retail sites in Turkey was flash-sale site TrendYol.com, which translates as trend road in English. TrendYol's sophisticated-looking home page features a gold-colored Vespa parked in front of a boutique in black and white. The site attracted 623,000 monthly unique visitors and about one million monthly visits in May, according to comScore. Sales scheduled on TrendYol for the week include both international brands, such as American Eagle, as well as products from Turkish manufacturers such as a shoe maker NR.39.
I had a conversation about international online retailing this past week with Tyler Smith, president of Niche Retail LLC, an e-retailer which has branched out to offer e-commerce services such as order management, search engine marketing, customer service and inventory management to consumer goods makers. Smith made an important point that e-retailers need to approach each country differently, accommodating the different customer expectations of each region. In Italy, consumers use credit cards less frequently than elsewhere in Europe and expect to pay for goods on delivery, he noted. In England, retailers face higher return rates and higher logistics expenses. As Smith pointed out, retailers looking at international sales can't just put up a translated site that accepts the local currency and expect to succeed.
In addition, retailers need to not only understand consumer expectations and practices but understand businesses that are already operating in other markets. But with some research, it can pay off, as international Internet users numbers grow and are primed for the convenience and benefits of online shopping.

Order Subtotal: $0.00
When the satirical newspaper The Onion printed the article "Girlfriend Overdoses on Lotion," the story of course was a joke.
"When we arrived, Ms. Nagler's blood-lotion level was 0.45. That's four times the lethal limit," said emergency responder Anne Jones. "We're guessing that by the time her boyfriend found her, she had been inhaling cocoa butter and eucalyptus fumes for over 45 minutes. One more Buf-Puf of jasmine serum and it would have been too late."
Funny stuff. But given that most good jokes are steeped in reality, is the idea really so far-fetched?

In The News
Nov 23, 2009
NATIONAL – Last month, the Department of Homeland Security announced that it is revamping a controversial program that allows state and local police officers to enforce federal immigration law. It will now focus on rooting out undocumented persons who have committed serious crimes, officials said, pledging to supervise the program more closely, flag problems and field complaints from the public, the New York Times reports. Immigration advocacy groups have charged that some police agencies have targeted immigrants who commit minor offenses, like traffic violations, and engaged in racial profiling.
NATIONAL – On October 28, President Obama signed into law the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which covers crimes against people based on their real or perceived gender identity and sexual orientation. The Act expands a 1969 federal hate-crimes law that covered crimes motivated by race, color, religion, national origin, and disability. The measure was attached to a military-spending bill.
AR – Curtis Vance was sentenced to life in prison on November 12 for the brutal rape and murder of Little Rock television news anchor Anne Pressly, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reports. Vance broke into Pressly's home last October and beat her so viciously that she died. Vance was arrested a month after the crime because he was implicated by DNA evidence collected from another rape.
CA – After an intensive and effective campaign by advocates throughout the state, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed emergency legislation on October 21 restoring $16.3 million in funding for 94 domestic violence shelters and centers. Three months earlier, he eliminated all state funding for domestic violence shelters in response to budget shortfalls. The restored funds were borrowed from California's Alternative Fuel and Vehicle Technology Fund, and must be repaid. "This one-year funding allocation means that we can prevent further shelter closures and restore services in agencies that have already closed," said California Partnership to End Domestic Violence Executive Director Tara Shabazz. But "the governor's veto eliminated the state shelter funding program, which this bill does not revive. We will not rest until we have found a permanent funding source for shelters." Click here and here for additional background on California's budget crisis.
MD – Mark Castillo pled guilty and was sentenced to three life terms without parole on October 14 for drowning his three young children in a bathtub last year, the Washington Post reports. After the murders, Castillo told police investigators that he was going through a bitter custody dispute with his wife and that he killed their children partly to spite her.
GUINEA – Gruesome pictures of women who suffered rapes, beatings and other acts of intentional humiliation surfaced on cell phones this month after soldiers reportedly joined a violent mob in attacking political demonstrators, and targeting women for extreme sexual violence, in Conakry, the country's capital. Soldiers shot and killed unarmed demonstrators, women were stripped and raped, and other acts of violence stunned the country. Human rights groups estimate that about 150 people died in the violence. Doctors Without Borders has corroborated the brutal sexual assaults, and Human Rights Watch asserts that top aides to military leader Captain Moussa Dadis Camara were at the stadium and did nothing to stop them, the Associated Press reports. The international community has begun to take actions to hold his government accountable. "Women as battlefield targets. We could never have imagined that," said Sidya Touré, a former primer minister who was beaten at the stadium, told the New York Times.
SUDAN – The Obama Administration announced a shift away from sanctions and toward "engagement" in the way the United States deals with President Omar al-Bashir's regime, the Christian Science Monitor reports. President Obama calls the new policy, "a comprehensive strategy to confront the serious and urgent situation in Sudan," a country the United States has accused of genocide. President Obama says the United States will offer "incentives" if the Sudan improves its record on human rights and advances peace. Human rights groups have said the U.S. is treading too cautiously in dealing with al-Bashir's government.

Our Science – Sommers Website
Connie L. Sommers, Ph.D.
Our research focuses on deciphering the role of LAT in T cell development and T cell function using transgenic mouse models. In particular, a knock-in mutant of LAT (LATY136F) has revealed an important role for LAT in immune homeostasis since these knock-in mice have a severe lymphoproliferative disease. Our research also investigates the roles of other T cell signal transduction intermediates in the development and function of LATY136F and normal T cells. In addition we have recently been investigating the role of microRNAs in lymphoproliferative disease.

Once Lovie Smith was fired, it was an almost certainty that all of "his guys" would follow him out the door. When Chicago Bears general manager announced that all the assistants would be retained, we figured it was just a matter of time.
There are now multiple reports that Rod Marinelli is indeeed out as defensive coordinator of the Chicago Bears.
Multiple sources reporting that Rod Marinelli will NOT be staying on as #Bears defensive coordinator.— Bob LeGere (@BobLeGere) January 17, 2013
Once it seemed that Lovie Smith would be sitting out the 2013 season, there was some hope that Marinelli would return to run the defense for new head coach Marc Trestman, but that hope seems to have faded.
It's interesting to note that reports are that he will join the Cowboys staff, but in Dallas he'll not be the defensive coordinator.
Marc Trestman has coached a team that ran the Cover 2, so keeping the scheme intact is likely.
