Wausau Paper Announces Second-Quarter Results
Wausau Paper (NYSE:WPP) today reported that:
- Second-quarter net loss per share, including discontinued operations, was $0.03 per share compared to year-ago net earnings of $0.07 per share.
- Second-quarter earnings from continuing operations were $0.04 per share compared to earnings from continuing operations of $0.10 per share the year before.
- Excluding special items, second-quarter adjusted earnings from continuing operations were $0.09 per share, reflecting strong performance by the Tissue segment, compared to $0.11 per share last year.
During the first and second quarters of 2012, the Company substantially completed the sale of its premium Print & Color brands, inventory and select equipment, and the permanent closure of its Brokaw, Wisconsin, manufacturing site. The Company began reporting the operations of the Brokaw manufacturing facility and related closure activities as a discontinued operation as of March 31, 2012, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, the discontinued operation is separately presented from continuing operations for all periods presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. All results discussed below exclude the discontinued operation unless otherwise indicated.
The Company reported net earnings for the second quarter of $2.1 million, or $0.04 per share, compared with net earnings of $4.8 million, or $0.10 per share, in the prior year. Net sales declined one percent to $212.9 million, as shipments were flat at 132,000 tons.
Second-quarter results included after-tax capital-related expenses of $0.9 million, or $0.02 per share, associated with the Tissue segment expansion project in Harrodsburg, Kentucky, and after-tax expenses of $1.4 million, or $0.03 per share, related to settlement charges associated with a defined benefit pension plan. Prior-year results included after-tax capital-related expenses of $0.7 million, or $0.01 per share, associated with a paper machine rebuild at Brainerd, Minnesota, and the Tissue segment expansion. Excluding these items, adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.09 per share in the second-quarter of 2012 compared to $0.11 per share in the same period of 2011. Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations for the first six months of 2012 were $9.3 million, or $0.19 per share, compared with prior-year adjusted net earnings of $7.6 million, or $0.15 per share. Although these comparisons are non-GAAP measures, the Company believes that the presentation of adjusted net earnings from continuing operations provides a useful analysis of ongoing operating trends. Adjusted earnings for the three- and six-month periods are reconciled to GAAP earnings below.

NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., has measured the mass of a nearby asteroid millions of miles away. This feat was achieved by Steve Chesley of JPL's Near-Earth Object Program Office by utilizing information from three NASA data sources, the Goldstone Solar System Radar in the California desert, the orbiting Spitzer space telescope and the NASA-sponsored Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico.
Chesley presented his findings Saturday, May 19, at the Asteroids, Comets and Meteors 2012 meeting in Niigata, Japan.
For Chesley to figure out the asteroid's mass, he first needed to understand its orbit and everything that could affect it including neighboring heavenly bodies and any forces that the asteroid could cause on its own.
Using remarkably accurate observations collected by astronomer Michael Nolan at Arecibo Observatory in September 2011, Arecibo and Goldstone radar observations made in 1999 and 2005, and the gravitational effects of the Sun, Moon, planets and other asteroids, Chesley was able to calculate how far the asteroid deviated from its anticipated orbit. He found that 1999 RQ36 had deviated from what the math says it should by about 100 miles in the past 12 years. The only logical explanation for this orbital change was that the space rock itself was generating a minute propulsive force known as the Yarkovsky effect.
See this blog here for more information about the Yarkovsly effect and asteroids.
According to NASA, "Asteroid 1999 RQ36 is of special interest to as it is the target of the agency's OSIRIS-REx (Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security, Regolith Explorer) mission. Scheduled for launch in 2016, ORIRIS-REx will visit 1999 RQ36, collect samples from the asteroid and return them to Earth."

2012 Kentucky State Fair: What to expect
By Courtnee Gray–
Louisville has been the official home of the Kentucky State Fair since 1907, and it is no wonder since the city is equally diverse as the many counties that come together to cultivate the highly anticipated fair. Whether you come for the coasters, contests or concerts there is something special for each individual who enters the gates.
With over 53 food vendors and tents you will not go hungry. The smorgasbord begins with the classic corndog and lemon shakeups and ends with trying all the strange fair delicacies, such as the deep fried Girl Scout cookies and the Krispy Kreme doughnut burgers.
Once you've had your fill of the foods, you can mosey over to one of the many attractions and shows including the Handsome Little Devils circus show, the largest pumpkin contest, the famous balloon sculptures or animal exhibits, educational booths and collectables.
The University will also be contributing its services in some of the exhibits. The University Hospital will be teaming up with the James Graham Brown Cancer Center to provide services at the Health Horizons section. This section will include free Mammogram screenings for women over 40, oral cancer screenings provided by the staff and students at the UofL School of Dentistry, along with many other beneficial, free health service programs.
After you hit all the exhibits and ride all the coasters at Thrillway, from discounted tickets with your Kroger Plus cards, it's time to go see the free concerts that start at 8p.m. (gates open at 6:30 p.m.). The bands include Cinderella, Hot Chelle Rae, The Oak Ridge Boys, Justin Moore, Young The Giant and many other fantastic, free shows.
We can't leave out the Main Stage stars including Hank Williams Jr., Journey, Rascal Flatts and The Band Perry. You can purchase tickets of these shows at the fair or the KFC YUM! Center, tickets for each show range from $35-$60.
Kentucky, and more specifically Louisville, has a way of bringing together divergent thinkers to create 10 days of Kentucky culture and fair fun. This brings to life the roots that we sometimes forget about and state pride that sometimes is lost in the chaos of our day to day lives. The Kentucky State Fair is a time for us as a state to celebrate our talents, bask in our uniqueness and not to mention get some delicious funnel cake. For more information about the Kentucky State Fair visit the website: www.kystatefair.org.
Also, keep a look out for a Young The Giant review and a Kentucky State Fair Recap in the next issue.

BBC World News Airs Episode 8: Fuel for Thought of HORIZONS Series Tonight
The world burns 2.5 million barrels of oil every day just to power car headlights. Figures like this illustrate the huge need to find highly productive energy sources that don't emit toxic pollutants and greenhouse gases. Global energy consumption is on the rise and making a long-term break from oil, gas and coal is also a long way off; but new ideas, new sources and new ways of utilising energy need to be looked at if we are to meet demand.
In this episode of Horizons, Adam Shaw hops aboard the latest incarnation of an electric bus in the South Korean city of Gumi. Here they've developed a system which allows the vehicles to be charged wirelessly. This innovation will save the bus company a small fortune in fuel costs and provide a greener alternative to diesel and petrol powered buses, all without the mess of wires and chargers normally associated with electric vehicles.
In Northern California, Akiko Fujita finds out how geothermal energy can be tapped into using a technique called hydro-shearing. The company Alta Rock energy says they've finally found a way of making this cost-effective now the geysers are creating less energy naturally.
300 miles from the Indian coast in Bangalore, reporter Shaili Chopra discovers how an inland company is harvesting seaweed to make a biomass fuel using the macro algae. They say there's more room to harvest seaweed in the ocean than using inland waterways to farm micro algae.
We also have an update on the world's most expensive Science experiment - a nuclear Fusion reactor. While construction is currently underway in France we visit one of the locations that are trialling experiments that will help with its creation. Finally at the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy in the UK, we hear how, if they can master nuclear Fusion it could, be the answer to most of the world's fuel problems.
About Series
Horizons examines the innovations and technologies that could change the way we live and work in the coming decades.
The fourth series of Horizons explores the technologies and innovations that could transform the way we live our lives over the next few decades. Where will the breakthroughs come from to tackle some of the biggest challenges facing the planet? Cheaper, cleaner energy, enough food and water for a growing population, cities that work and advances in medicine that allow people to live longer, happier and healthier lives.
Each programme will take one major topic and explore from different viewpoints and multi-locations with presenter Adam Shaw interviewing experts in their field - whether a CEO, scientist or opinion former. Destinations in this series include South Korea, US, Africa, India.

Noe Valley Apartment Rental Photos and Description
2 Bedroom, 1 Bath, Large Edwardian Flat In The Heart Of Noe Valley.
Steps away from the heart of hip NOE Valley, this Edwardian Beauty will satisfy even the most artistic soul.
- Suitability:
- Minimum Age Limit for Renters
- children welcome

Beth Nelson
British fashion designer, published writer, advocate for the Sustainable Cotton Project, professor of Fashion and Sustainability at California College of the Arts, mother, wife, and beachcomber!
I grew up in England, studied fashion design in London, came to America to work as a designer in New York and then moved to San Francisco. I fell in love with a San Francisco native, and we now live with our 13 year old daughter in a beach community of 240, next to Green Gulch Zen Center and Farm in west Marin.
We love to share our former home, and neighborhood, which we think is quite unique. Please don't hesitate to ask about special needs or services to make your stay enjoyable. We will always try to make everything as comfortable as possible for you.
We have savored this Noe Valley location for more than 20 years and watched our neighbourhood become more and more fun over time. I was originally drawn to Noe Valley because it was a safe, vibrant, sunny and creative San Francisco neighborhood, with its own newspaper: The Noe Valley Voice! Located a stone's throw from Castro Street, every amenity is accessible within a few blocks. We have a wide variety of restaurants, many shopping options, a great organic grocery store, yoga classes, a library, a local bakery, tennis courts and easy-to-access transport.
The house has character and is located on a quiet one block street, yet it's close enough to walk to the busy commercial center of the community. We also have an unusually large back garden for the city, lots of sun and an apple tree that my now-husband planted for my birthday, when we were dating!
Our beautiful large back garden, washer and dryer within the unit, the charming details of an Edwardian building, garaged parking, convenient location to the airport…only 15-20 minutes by car….the deep claw-foot tub and our friendly neighbors!

The Bangor Daily News reported engineers at the University of Maine's Advanced Structures and Composites Center are evaluating a 180-foot wind turbine blade for strength testing. Habib Dagher, director of the center, said the blade is the largest structure ever to be tested at the facility, which is one of two sites in the nation capable of handling the blade. He told the BDN there is a growing interest across the nation in using fewer but larger turbines because they are more cost-effective in energy production.

Ward Interviewed for Press Herald R&D, Innovation Fact-Checking CommentaryFriday, August 29th, 2014
A Portland Press Herald business reporter spoke with Jake Ward, vice president for innovation and economic development at the University of Maine, for a commentary titled "Fact checking LePage on R&D, MTI and innovation." Ward was interviewed in response to a recent comment made by Gov. Paul LePage stating the University of Maine System has 37 patents that are not being commercialized. Ward said the system has 77 patents assigned to it and more than a third are jointly owned with a private business or have a commercial license agreement or license options. Others are associated with ongoing research projects funded by both public and private dollars, he said.

Moran Talks with MPBN About Maine Apple CropMonday, August 25th, 2014
Renae Moran, a tree fruit specialist with the University of Maine Cooperative Extension, spoke to the Maine Public Broadcasting Network about this year's apple crop in Maine. According to the report, experts are predicting an excellent crop this year, with good size and color. Moran said most people who pick their own apples will not see much hail damage, and added most apple farms in Maine get a significant portion of their incomes from pick-your-own and retail farm stand sales. Moran said pick-your-own has started in southern Maine with summer varieties. Activity usually picks up after Labor Day, when the main crop harvest begins the second week in September in southern Maine and continues into October in more northern areas, she said.
Collins Center, Hudson Museum Mentioned in Mainebiz Article on Bangor EntertainmentMonday, August 25th, 2014
Daniel Williams, executive director of the University of Maine's Collins Center for the Arts, spoke to Mainebiz about the Bangor region becoming an entertainment destination. Williams said he remembered when the Collins Center opened its doors in 1986 under the name Maine Center for the Arts. "It changed our community overnight. I believe the MCA was the start of a cultural experiment that has been wildly successful. Ten or 15 years ago, we heard a lot of talk about the creative economy. I think we are seeing that concept in full swing in greater Bangor," he said. Indigenous arts at CCA's Hudson Museum and fine arts at the University of Maine's Museum of Art in downtown Bangor were also recognized in the article. An economic impact study on Bangor's Waterfront Concerts conducted by UMaine economics professor Todd Gabe also was cited in the article. Gabe found from 2010 to 2013, the series drew more than 300,000 people to the region.

Past, Present Hemlock Declines Focus of UMaine Research ProjectMonday, August 18th, 2014
The impact that hemlock tree die-offs have had — and continue to have — on freshwater forest ecosystems is the focus of a research project at the University of Maine.
Hamish Greig, a UMaine assistant professor of stream ecology, and Jacquelyn Gill, an assistant professor of terrestrial paleoecology at the Climate Change Institute (CCI) and the School of Biology and Ecology, are leading a research team that is studying past and present declines of the conifers known for their dense shade. The resulting biomass the dying trees introduce into the watershed, as well as the other tree species that take their place on the forest floor, affect freshwater systems, including streams and lakes.
Understanding those implications is particularly important in Maine, where hemlocks are now being threatened by the same exotic pest that, in recent years, has decimated the tree species in the southeastern United States.
"People in Maine have a huge affinity to their rivers and lakes. It's huge economically; it's huge socially, and through recreational activities," says Greig, who is joined on the research team by research assistant professor Krista Caps, postdoctoral scientist Robert Northington, as well as several graduate, undergraduate and high school students.
About 5,500 years ago, the hemlocks of eastern North America sustained a massive die-off that lasted about 1,000 years, brought on by severe drought and the hemlock looper, a native pest, Gill says. Today, the tree species has been nearly decimated in the southeastern United States by the hemlock woolly adelgid, an exotic insect from Asia.
Maine's cold winters typically protect against exotic pests. However, warmer temperatures have allowed exotic pests to thrive and move north. Since 2004, the hemlock woolly adelgid has been in southwestern Maine. This year, it has made it as far north as Owls Head, according to the researchers.
"As the climate warms, there won't be anything preventing the woolly adelgid from hitting our hemlocks in Maine as hard as they've been hit elsewhere," Gill says.
As part of their study, the research team has set up 36 livestock water tanks as experimental freshwater mesocosms, or isolated experimental environments. Hemlock needles, along with rhododendron and maple leaves, have been added to the ecosystems to observe what happens when a hemlock dies.
The mesocosms allow the scientists to study these isolated environments as they develop over time — in this case, into the fall.
"You can't really control something in a natural lake," Greig says. "And if you do experiments in the lab, you're really simplifying things down to two or three species of invertebrates. By having this happy medium, we can have natural complexity with the controlled replication of a true experiment."
Next, Gill and Northington will study radiocarbon-dated records from the bottom of lakes and bogs in southeastern, coastal and central Maine regions to help understand how aquatic systems were affected by hemlock die-off in the past. By linking the paleo record with a modern experiment, the team hopes to will new light on hemlock's role in changing ecosystems.
WLBZ Interviews Rice About Old Town Mill ClosureMonday, August 18th, 2014
WLBZ (Channel 2) spoke with Robert Rice, a professor of wood science and technology at the University of Maine, for a report on mill officials remaining optimistic about Old Town Fuel and Fiber's future despite the recent shutdown of the mill. Rice said if mill owners choose to sell, they should consider options, including whether the new owner will continue researching biofuels. He added one of the major challenges the mill faced was that it produced only market pulp, an operational structure that is becoming less viable in the United States.
Startup Weekend to be Held in Bangor, on CampusFriday, August 15th, 2014
Bangor's first Startup Weekend will be Sept. 19–21, focused on jump-starting companies and networking entrepreneurs.
Startup Weekend Bangor will be held Sept. 19 at Bagel Central, 33 Central St., Bangor, and Sept. 20–21 at the University of Maine's Foster Center for Student Innovation and the Innovative Media Research and Commercialization (IMRC) Center. Registration is $99 per person ($75 through Sept. 5); $25 for students. Registration and more information is online.
The hands-on, immersive event is part of Startup Weekend Maine, which brings designers, developers and entrepreneurs together to pitch their startup ideas and receive peer feedback. Teams form around the top ideas — determined by popular vote — and spend the remainder of the three days building a business model. Final presentations before local entrepreneurial leaders culminate the weekend.
Startup Weekend Portland was held June 13; Startup Weekend Auburn is Nov. 14. The events take their mission from the global grassroots effort Startup Weekends that helps community volunteers organize the 54-hour events to share ideas, form teams, build products and launch startups, according to its website.
The community organizers of Startup Weekend Bangor include Jesse Moriarity and Jennifer Hooper of the Foster Center for Student Innovation; Chuck Carter of Eagre Interactive; Gerry Hall of Emera Maine; UMaine students Silvia Guzman and Michael Kennedy; and Erika Allison, winner of Startup Weekend Portland.
UMaine is a Blackstone Accelerates Growth (BxG) partner and Bangor is one of three regional BxG Innovation Hubs.

Two Days Worth of Standing Against Gas Tax Relief on CNN
Two segments that aired on two days straight on CNN underscored the network's alignment with those who stand against a gasoline tax holiday during the summer driving season. First, Carol Costello's segment on Wednesday's "Newsroom" program used last year's bridge collapse in Minneapolis to advance the idea that "things like road construction and bridge repair" would suffer as a result of the lost revenues. The following day, on Thursday's "The Situation Room," host Wolf Blitzer pressed McCain campaign adviser Carly Fiorina, a former CEO of Hewlett-Packard, on McCain's proposal, asking, "So when you say that he would take the money from reserves, in other words, we would go further into debt to pay for this tax break?" During the interview, a chyron or graphic on the screen claimed, "Saving on Gas Could Cost You: Whether to Suspend Fed Gas Taxes."
Costello's segment, which aired 45 minutes into the 2 pm Eastern hour of Wednesday's "Newsroom," began by comparing the tax holiday to a Christmas present. "For cash strapped consumers, any reduction in gas prices would be like, well, like Santa coming into town early, or so it seemed on the stump." An animated Santa with his sleigh and reindeer flashed across the screen during Costello's voice-over. After giving a bit background on the tax holiday proposal and playing a clip of McCain touting how nice it would be to pay 18 cents less at the gas pump, Costello quipped almost sarcastically, "Ah, that sounds nice. But Santa aside, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Those federal highway taxes pay for things like road construction and bridge repair, something that was really important just last year, when the I-35 bridge collapsed in Minneapolis, killing 13 people."
In addition to this bit of fear-mongering, Costello quoted from the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, that according to this panel, "both Clinton and McCain's idea would drain the federal highway fund by $3 billion per month, creating a $12 billion shortfall. Not only that, but it would put at risk, 310,750 highway construction jobs." But she conveniently left out the fact that, like all House committees, it is under Democratic control.
The next day, 14 minutes into the 4 pm Eastern hour of Thursday's "The Situation Room," Blitzer played for Fiorina a clip of Obama at a campaign rally railing against the "Clinton/McCain proposal," and he used the same basic argument that Costello used in her segment, that "it takes money out of the federal highway fund that goes to rebuilding roads and bridges. And without that money, you could have thousands of fewer jobs here in Indiana and our roads and bridges won't be safe."
Blitzer then asked Fiorina about Hillary Clinton's version of the gas tax holiday. First, he brought up how "Clinton says she was would have a windfall profit tax on big oil to pay for the roads, for the bridges. How is Senator McCain going to pay for the roads and the bridges if this tax -- if this federal tax isn't included between Memorial Day and Labor Day?"
When Fiorina emphasized the savings of the American consumer and how Obama himself supported a gas tax holiday as an Illinois state senator, Blitzer then pressed her on the "windfall profit tax." "But what's wrong with a windfall profit tax? Exxon Mobil today announcing their first quarter profits almost $11 billion. They're raking it in right now.... What do you say? Why not do what Hillary Clinton says, tax them a little bit more? They can certainly afford it better than working-class people..." This began an exchange in which Blitzer hammered away at this point.
BLITZER: They're raking it in at a time when people are going to the gas tank and they're spending $3.50, almost $4 a gallon for unleaded regular. What do you say? Why not do what Hillary Clinton says, tax them a little bit more? They can certainly afford it better than working-class people in Indiana, North Carolina, or elsewhere around the country.
FIORINA: Yes. Well, let's just start with the basic idea that this started with -- give hard-working Americans a break at the pump. Let's go back to that fundamental.
BLITZER: But what's wrong with having it excise -- a windfall profit tax on ExxonMobil.
FIORINA: Probably because Hillary Clinton or Senator Obama would make that tax permanent. And that would distort markets.
BLITZER: Would Senator McCain support a temporary excise -- a temporary windfall...
FIORINA: I haven't had that conversation with him. But I think the most important thing...
BLITZER: Is it something -- as a corporate executive you understand this kind of stuff. What do you think?
FIORINA: I think taxing profits, particularly when the profits of that industry are not out of line, makes less sense right now than, for example, providing those same companies an incentive for, for example, refining.
In his final question on the topic, Blitzer talked strategy with Fiorina. "Are you worried though that politically this could be used to badger Senator McCain in a general election, that he's with big oil, they're against big oil?" In response, she stuck to her talking point, that "hard working Americans need a break. Let's give them a break at the pump this summer."

UPDATE: Search suspended for Northfield man presumed drowned
Instead, Army National Guard helicopters will be flying over the river today, combing the swelling river from above, according to Lt. James Kneeland.
"It's too high for us to consider going back there today, so we have pulled out," Kneeland said. "We'll play it day by day, hopefully we can get back in there by this weekend."
Teams are searching for Aaron Hoyt of Northfield, in what Kneeland said is now a recovery operation, as Hoyt is "presumed drowned," he said.
Two friends who were with Hoyt have not seen him since he jumped in the water just before 8 p.m. Monday, he said. The two swimmers called for help after he failed to surface.
The two friends were upset Tuesday, Kneeland said, that media reports indicated they had dared Hoyt to jump in. The reports came from statements made by rescue crews Monday night and Tuesday morning.
"I don't doubt that they were participating in a Polar Plunge, they were talking about it afterward and said they had seen it on the Internet," Kneeland said.
"We just don't have any specific evidence that anyone dared him to go in. They indicated they wanted to participate in a Polar Plunge, but we don't have evidence of a specific dare," he said.
The bridge at the falls where the search teams headquartered Monday night and Tuesday was underwater this morning, Kneeland said, and the waters were expected to continue rising.
Kneeland said Fish and Game and Marine Patrol search teams hoped to return to the scene by the weekend. When they next search, they will likely have "cadaver dogs:" dogs trained in finding bodies, he said.
Michael Hoyt of Northfield confirmed Tuesday that his son, Aaron Hoyt, is the person who was lost in the waters Monday night. Michael Hoyt said police met with him Tuesday morning. Michael Hoyt would not comment further.
Law enforcement authorities confirmed this evening that Aaron Hoyt is the victim.

California Firefighter Mourned a Year Later
Mario Cunha first met Jesse Casillas while they were showing off their customized Honda Civics at local car shows almost 15 years ago.
He said he holds no personal animosity against Zarco, though he and other firefighters believe Zarco received a light sentence. She could have been sent to prison for four years.
During the sentencing hearing for Zarco, Casillas told the judge he believes she should be penalized with prison time for leaving the scene of an accident and for driving without a license.
"Accidents happen," he said. "The one thing I know for sure is that Mario was doing what he loved when it happened. He died an honorable death."
Service planned today A memorial vigil to celebrate Mario Cunha's life will be at 4 p.m. today at the Soledad fire station, 525 Monterey St. The event is planned as a celebration of Mario's life, said Soledad Fire Chief Jesse Casillas. A memorial plaque also will be dedicated in Cunha's honor. The vigil is sponsored by the Soledad Firefighters Association.

The Miami Dolphins re-signed offensive lineman Nate Garner according to Ben Volin of the Palm Beach Post. Garner has played at multiple positions along the line for the Dolphins over the years, starting four games at right tackle during the 2012 season.
Garner started a total of 13 games during his four seasons in Miami and will serve to add depth to the offensive line. With Jake Long headed to the Rams, Miami needs to rebuild in the trenches and Garner is just a start.
If the Dolphins don't make any big free agent signings to address their line, second-year man Jonathan Martin is expected to slide into the starting left tackle spot and Garner could compete for the starting right tackle job or serve as the top backup for multiple positions.
It is likely that the Dolphins will look to bring in another free agent as a starting tackle or address the issue with one of their top picks in the 2013 NFL Draft.

Re Matt Wuerker editorial cartoon (Viewpoints, Nov. 20): As a nation, we are hopelessly divided and having more trouble with civil discourse as each day goes by. Cartoons like the one titled "Getting ready for Thanksgiving at the Cheneys" do nothing but widen that divide. You have a right to publish whatever you wish, but this cartoon is tasteless and unnecessary. I do not always agree with the viewpoints expressed in your editorials but I continue to read your paper because I want all viewpoints when considering current issues. What your readers see in The Bee could go a long way toward responsible and meaningful journalism that helps us heal. We don't need blogger trash in our mainstream media.

After the hideously ugly current model, the new estate is a seriously good-looking car. Citroen's design is on a real roll at the moment – the Tourer's ...

ItemRules is a simple to use, but highly configurable plugin for controlling how, when and even where items and blocks can be used, picked up, crafted, placed or broken based on the world, a players xp level, the faction they are in, their mcMMO skill level, their rank/group, their permissions, and more. It is a complete rewrite/revisioning of my previous plugin LevelRestrictions
Latest Builds
ItemRules can allow you to restrict items and blocks based on XP level and/or will integrate with Factions (e.g. allow only certain factions to use certain items), McMMO (e.g. restrict ores from being mined unless mining skill is a minimum level), Vault (e.g. restrict weapons based on permission group).
ItemRules will also allow you to configure certain rules that will be applied when players walk into defined regions (e.g. a PvP zone that only allows you to use carrots as weapons)
Configuration Examples
- Click here for details on configuring basic rules.
- Click here for details on configuring rules that only apply to specified areas.
Here is an example of restricting iron tools and equipment until player is level 2:
ironEquipment: description: 'Use of iron stuff until level 2' messages: restricted: 'You cant %s %s until level 2' actions: [USE, BREAK, PICKUP] xp: min: 2 items: restrict: [256, 257, 258, 267, 292]
Here is an example of McMMO integration that prevents cutting down Birch trees until woodcutting skill is level 2:
Woodcutting-Brichwood: messages: restricted: 'You cant cut birch until woodcutting 2' actions: [BREAK] mcmmo: skills: woodcutting: 2 items: restrict: ['17.2']
You can also specify rules to apply to groups (note this requires Vault) by adding this to your rule:
groups: applyto: ['newbs', 'badpeeps']
You can use the same format to exclude rules from groups (using Vault) like:
groups: exclude: ['vips']
Note that by default all OP's will bypass rules.
|Do not process ANY rules for player
|Do not process specific rule for player
|list all rules currently applied to player. No arguments for self

Update plugin plz :D

I would really appreciate a response as this problem still exists and I'm not sure how to proceed.
EDIT: This is one of my core plugins and an update or workaround (such as an /ir reload command maybe?) to get the plugin to recognize changes in a player's permissions immediately would be greatly appreciated...
PS. (A reply to this comment would be nice so I know you actually saw it)Last edited Jul 18, 2014 by kev3200
kev3200 Jul 02, 2014 at 22:21 UTC - 0 likes
Thank you for responding. Would it be possible for you to release an update? I have something I would like added.
It would be very helpful if the plugin recognized when a player's permissions were updated without me having to /reload the server after any change. Right now, everything works fine, but when I add or remove a permission from a player, I need to /reload the server from the console for ItemRules to recognize the change; something I would greatly prefer not to have to do since I run a bigger server and it takes a couple seconds to reload each time.
Also, in your examples file (for basic configs) the option for permissions, the exclude sub-option, has the permissions read just like this: mycustom.permission. However, after numerous testing and frustration, I realized that the config actually only reads the permission when it is in this format: ['mycustom.permission']
It would be nice to change that so others are not confused. And a new release would be very nice, just to change the reload problem I mentioned. Other than that, the plugin works great, I was just confused at first.Last edited Jul 02, 2014 by kev3200

I'm having a problem on my 1.7.9 server. I have this in my Config that I took from the examples:
rules: diamondEquipment: description: 'use of diamond equipment until level 5' messages: restricted: 'You cannot %s %s until level 5' xp: min: 5 actions: [USE, CRAFT] items: restrict: - 276
But it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I also have this:
rules: woodenEquipment: description: 'use of wooden equipment' messages: restricted: 'You cannot %s %s until a higher level' actions: [USE, BREAK, CRAFT] permissions: exclude: allowed.woodenSword items: restrict: ['268,270']
but that doesn't seem to do anything either... Is my syntax wrong or what?

I installed ItemRules v1.0.10 on my test server running Bukkit 1.7.2-R0.2 and everything worked fine in a new 1.7.4 world. I spot-checked new item ids that were released after the last ItemRules was published and it behaved normally.
I use McMMO, Factions, PermissionsEX and a few other plugins and ItemRules appears to be playing nicely with them all. Your results may vary. :-)

Update: I'm not sure why but the permissions aren't working for me, both default and ones added for exceptions or applyto. Same goes for groups, the exceptions and applyto's are not working.Last edited Jul 08, 2013 by digger514
