Mexican discount airline Volaris has been slapped with a $130,000 fine for failing to alert passengers to potential baggage fees -- the first such fine levied under a new regulation, the Department of Transportation said Friday.
Airline passengers still want it all: low prices, comfortable seating, "free" baggage check-in and other freebies.
Blogger Jenny Larson tells our Randi Kaye why she thinks it's a bad idea.
The U.S. Department of Transportation is going high-tech in hopes of keeping bus passengers safe. A new app, SaferBus, allows passengers to review a bus company's safety record before they book travel or buy tickets.

Spirit Airlines isn't happy with the new airline price advertising rule. The big "Warning!" sign popping up on the carrier's website makes that pretty clear.
New airline rules will raise prices, but it's a benefit for consumers.
We've all seen that "great deal" airline ad, only to discover that with surcharges, taxes and fees, the great deal is not so great. Starting Thursday, when airline consumers see an advertised price of $500, that will be the price they pay. (Of course, there will still be some additional irritating "optional" fees like baggage charges, seat reservations, etc.)
When you look to buy airline tickets later this week, it might seem like prices have shot up. For once, that's not actually the case.
Airline passengers won't have to wade several steps into the booking process to see the full price of an airline ticket after a new rule goes into effect next month.
Some 32,885 people died on the nation's roadways in 2010 -- a number that, while slightly higher than preliminary figures released in April, shows the downward trend in traffic deaths is continuing, now reaching low levels not seen since 1949, the U.S. Department of Transportation reported Thursday.

The Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Transportation proposed two new designs for fuel economy labels Monday that would be used on all new vehicles.
That airfare you booked because it looked like a great deal can actually end up costing you 50 percent more because of extra airline fees, a watchdog group has found.
We weren't supposed to see headlines like this anymore: "Passengers held on hot plane for hours" -- not after a tarmac delay rule went into effect in April imposing stiff fines on airlines that kept fliers stuck in grounded aircraft for a long time.
Those baggage fees really add up: The airline industry raked in nearly $8 billion from fees last year, according to a government report.
Airlines hoping for exemptions at some airports to the tarmac delay rule going into effect next week are out of luck.
US Airways has joined a handful of other carriers in filing for an exemption from the tarmac delay rule going into effect next month. The airline has asked the Department of Transportation for a waiver to the rule for its hub in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The U.S. Department of Transportation said Thursday that traffic fatalities in 2009 reached their lowest level since 1954.
A runway closure at John F. Kennedy International Airport has prompted JetBlue Airways and Delta Air Lines to ask for a temporary exemption at JFK to a rule designed to keep planeloads of passengers from getting stranded on the tarmac.
The Department of Transportation slapped US Airways with a $40,000 civil penalty Monday for violating price advertising rules.
The U.S. Department of Transportation slapped United Airlines with a $30,000 fine Friday for violating price advertising rules, and the airline also will have to pay the balance for a previous infraction.
In what one advocate called "a Christmas miracle for airline passengers," the Department of Transportation on Monday announced a rule prohibiting U.S. aircraft on domestic routes from remaining on a tarmac for more than three hours with travelers aboard.
The government promised $27.5 billion in stimulus funds to help fix the nation's crumbling roads and bridges as part of a broader effort to save jobs. The effort is working...sort of.
After the mad rush of car sales sparked by Cash for Clunkers, dealers will now find they have plenty of downtime to count their money.
Cash for Clunkers is just about at the end of the road.
A poor decision by a regional airline was being blamed Friday for Continental Airlines passengers getting stranded overnight as their plane sat on a tarmac in Minnesota, federal transportation officials said Friday.
Cash for Clunkers, the very successful federal program that has brought car buyers back to showrooms, is about to reach a very rough end of the road.

All the while, native brands always belong to Chinese native car makers, such as Chery, Geely and BYD. In recent months, some joint venture brands released their own native sub-brands.
In April of 2008, Guangqi Honda, a JV between Guangzhou Automobile Group and Honda Motor, unveiled Everus (Li Nian in Chinese), the first native brand of Chinese JVs at Beijing Auto Show. Following some impressive concept cars for various auto show debut, the final production model S1 was unveiled at Guangzhou Auto Show this month. Everus S1, based on the last generation of Guangqi Honda City/Fit Saloon with few changes, will go on sale in early 2011.
SAIC-GM, a JV between Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation and General Motors, started late, but moved fast. On July 18 2010, SAIC-GM-Wuling, a SAIC GM's branch in West China, released its native sub-brand Baojun with a meaning 'great horse'. 4 months later, the first Baojun 630 passenger car rolled off the line at SGMW. The Baojun 630 is based on the old SGM Buick Excelle (Chevrolet Excelle in Europe). It will also go on sale in early 2011.
The relationship between JVs and native makers dates back to 1995. At that time, FAW began to assemble Hongqi CA7220 based on Audi 100 with the permission from its partner Audi, to revive China's first native car brand. After that, FAW assembled different models of Hongqi and Besturn based on Lincoln Towncar, Mazda 6 and Toyota Crown. In addition, Changan, BAIC and some other state-owned enterprises have brought partners' platforms for native brands as well.
However, Everus and Baojun are different. They are brands belong to the JVs rather than the Chinese partners. With old but mature platform, the mission of JV's native sub-brands is to enter the low-end market, fighting against Chinese 'real' native brands.
China is a multi-dimension car market. Unlike Europe and American, China's each car segment also can be divided into various markets. For example, in A-segment, FAW-VW provides various markets with up to 4 different models. The high-end Sagitar (Jetta A5) and Golf A6 are mainly for metropolitan consumers, the low-end Jetta A2 aims at towns and villages, while the New Bora A4 focuses on the mid-market.
It is beyond doubt that to maintain market share, the old Jetta A2 and Santana B2 have also damaged VW's brand image seriously. VW have paid much for it. But thanks to the native sub-brands, Guangqi Honda and SAIC GM will never face this problem. JV's low-end native sub-brands may become a new trend of Chinese auto industry. Chinese 'real' native brands will have to be alert in 2011 and will have to move fast to counter their new 'enemy'

The book of questions, Volume 11415 VIPs have spoken »
Friday is The Book of Questions Day around these parts. Today's query comes from the aptly titled book "The Book of Questions" by Gregory Stock, Ph.D.
And here it is, Question 181.
What do you like best about your life? Least?
The part I like best: I'm the adult in charge; what I say goes. This answer is based on the fact that I live with three children 24/7 — except during the school year when that's more like 18/5 Monday through Friday and 24/7 on the weekends and holidays.
If I did not have children the answer would still be the same — The best part of my life is being an adult.
You may have noticed that I have massive control issues. I get it, I understand why I have them and I'm happy that I can finally live by my mantra — live and let live. You do your thing — without forcing it on me — and I'll do mine.
I do lay down rules and consequences for my kids, but when they disagree I give them two choices on how to proceed.
For instance, they can choose to help me clean the living room or they can choose to sit in time out for a bit before they help me clean the living room.
If they drag their heels while getting ready for school I tell them they can step it up or they can go to school wearing pajamas and/or sporting bed head. Whatever choice they make does not impact when the train leaves. That's how a real train station works.
If you go to Grand Central Station and board the train on time, you're going to enjoy a trip across the countryside. If you're standing on the platform bitching about whether you should have to brush your own hair when the whistle blows and the doors shut, you're not going to get to your destination on that particular train.
They call that consequences. My kids choose to stand defiantly on the platform once every six months or so to get a refresher on whether the train actually leaves or not.
It always leaves.*
The part I like least: Hmm. Paying the bills. The way I see it, there's no real downside to being an adult.
*No, I've never left one of them home alone to take the other two to school. However, I did make one of them go to school with messy hair because she had a screaming fit about it all morning.
She refused to brush it and she would not let me brush it. And yes, she screamed, cried and yelled until we pulled into the parking lot at school.
She didn't fight with me about her hair for a while after that.

Albany - - The South Georgia Peanuts played their first game at home Thursday night in front of a big crowd of fans.
It seemed the Paul Eames Sports Complex was the place to be. Thousands of people showed up to enjoy the game, many of them just excited to have a team to call their own.
They're bringing baseball back.
"I think it's a great opportunity for the people of Albany to enjoy some good all American baseball," says fan Kenneth Manuel.
The South Georgia Peanuts came and delivered for fans who took their place in line to get a ticket. 1,500 tickets were sold in advance. Thursday, some 4,000 fans bought their tickets on the spot.
Tommy Roberts signed up his granddaughter Casey into the Peanut's Kids Club. She gets a t-shirt and free admission to games. She's excited.
"Because I've never been to a real baseball game before," says Casey Askew.
Chris Cartmell made sure he brought his son, Andy. He says it was just the right thing to do.
"Having your son. Dad going to a ball game. That's just the American way," Cartmell said.
And with all of the food, fun, and excitement, there were enough cheers to go around.
"You can only hope future homes games are just like this. Definitely, future home games we want to be just like this," says Peanuts staffer Chris Bell.
Even little Casey is now a huge fan.
"Ummm. I like it!"
The Peanuts have 45 home games so there will be plenty of opportunities to see them. The next game is Friday night.

Lawmakers work on higher gas taxMarch 10,2013
MONTPELIER — A Vermont House committee is soon expected to finish a gasoline tax increase that would take effect over the next two years.
The House Transportation Committee is expected to approve a 2 percent sales tax on gasoline that would take effect in June. In July of 2014, the sales tax would go up another 2 cents on a dollar, to 4 percent.
Meanwhile, in fiscal 2015, the cents-per-gallon tax would drop by nearly 6 cents from its current level of 19 cents per gallon. The upshot would be nearly $26 million more in gasoline taxes collected by the state.
Lawmakers have been looking for ways to shore up transportation revenues. Declining sales of gasoline have cut into revenues from gasoline taxes that historically have been raised mainly on a per-gallon basis.MORE IN This Just InBOSTON Rookie Matt Shoemaker didnt allow a hit through 6 2-3 innings and the Los Angeles...

It will be easy for the casual fan to forget you, especially on a day when one of the most beloved Steelers of all time is released. But today, two giants of the most recent era of Steeler football have been sent packing. You never received the accolades that Hines, The Bus, Farrior or Troy received, but I assure you that you were just as valuable. Casey Hampton is often referred to by the casual fan as the reason for the consistent success of our linebackers, but few stop to think about the role you played in Coach Dad's defense. You were a nose-tackle playing defensive end, an offensive tackle taking on blockers, a rush defensive end, and one of the best defensive ends in the game, but mostly, you were an under-appreciated player who just may be the best 3-4 defensive end to ever play football.
When people talk about the Hall of Fame, they say that you have to be the best at what you did, and you have to dominate for a substantial length of time. You meet these qualifications, but on a day when Hines Ward's Steeler career ends, no one will discuss the chances of you making the HOF. You are the Ray Guy of 3-4 defensive ends. All those who come after you will wait for their chance in the Hall, and at the end of every great 3-4 DE's career, people will briefly weigh the merits of electing this player to the Hall. This talk will quickly be shrugged off with the comment, "The Hall won't recognize Player X until Aaron Smith gets recognized, and that isn't happening." Aaron, this will be your legacy to future generations of fans. To fans of other teams, or casual Steeler fans, you will just be another veteran leaving us as we move ever-younger on defense for the next run at number 7; but, to fans like me who grew up on the Steelers, and love the old-school style of football the Steelers have played for the last 40 years, Aaron Smith will always be an all-time great Steeler, and deserving of a place in Canton.
Thank you,
Michael Uhlhorn

Finding Honest Casinos OnlineIt's no secret that there are plenty of dishonest casinos out there, but there are also plenty of honest ones. Sometimes it's obvious which are which, but sometimes even the most experienced gamblers can begin to question whether their online casino is playing fairly. Here are a few things to help identify truly honest casinos online.
Easy Cash Outs
One of the most important things honest casinos can do to distinguish themselves as fair and legitimate is to make it easy for players to get at their money and their winnings. This means making it as easy as possible for players to withdraw, offering a number of different means to do so. Whether they allow for direct transfers to players' bank accounts, release funds to ewallets, or issue and mail paper checks, honest casinos will always be more than happy to accommodate withdrawals at any time. If players encounter problems while trying to use their own money, then the casino is probably going to cheat them in other ways as well.
Fair Winnings
Honest casinos should have winners as well as losers. Half the fun of playing gambling games is the chance to hit the jackpot and win huge amounts of cash. If a casino is playing fairly, then even though millions of players will not win, someone will. Online reviews should have reports from people who have won while playing each of the many games. If everyone is a loser, then the casino may be rigging the games and cheating players out of their money.
It's not hard to find an online casino that promises players the world and all its riches. Whether those promises hold any truth, though, is another matter. Players should be careful to confirm any claims of the casino they are playing at, to make sure that the games are fair, and the casino is always honest.

Crytek Confirms TimeSplitters 4 Is Not In Development
Posted on Friday, April 27 @ 14:29:54 Eastern by Alex_Osborn
Earlier this week, word around the web was claiming that a new installment in the dearly beloved TimeSplitters franchise was in development at Crytek and that the game had been seen in playable form. It goes without saying that this juicy little rumor left a whole bunch of FPS fans brimming with joy.
Unfortunately, rumors are labeled as such for a reason, and in the case of a new TimeSplitters title, the report - as exciting as it may have been - was unreliable.
In an effort to squash the speculation for good, a Crytek spokesman issued the following heartbreaking words: "No, it's not in development." While it doesn't get much more blunt than that, hopefuls unwilling to face the evil truth will undoubtedly keep the dream alive, so just bear that in mind when new rumors resurface in a few months time.

The Yorkton Peewee Sherring Gold Terriers played two games at the Farrell Agencies Arena recently.
One, against the rival Melville Millionaires, was a regular season tilt. The other, meanwhile, was game one of a two game provincial total points series against the talented W eyburn Youngfellow Wings.
Thursday night
On Thursday the Terriers faced the Melville Millionaires in their final regular season game and handed their Highway 10 rivals a 5-2 loss.
The Millionaires scored the lone goal of the first period when, with Yorkton's Tanner Hoffman in the penalty box for hooking, Byers Johanson put the puck past Terriers goalie Spencer Welke for a 1-0 Mils lead after one period.
Melville held their 1-0 lead for over half of the second period before Kaeden Korczak took over.
The talented Korczak scored three straight Terriers goals, his 18th, 19th and 20th, including two just 20 seconds apart, to give the Terriers a 3-1 lead after 40 minutes of play.
Kaeden's brother Ryder Korczak gave the Terriers a three goal lead under two minutes into the final frame when he beat Tyler Harasymuk for his 11th of the season.
Melville's Sheydon Woodhouse would get the Mils to within two with 14:08 remaining in the period, but Zach McIntyre's 33rd of the season restored the Terriers three goal lead and sealed the 5-2 victory for Yorkton.
The win gives the Terriers a 17-2-1 final record and combined with a Weyburn 4-4 tie on Sunday against Estevan, the 2013-14 SSMHL Peewee regular season title.
Walloping Weyburn
On Saturday the Sherring Gold Terriers hosted the Weyburn Youngfellow Wings for the first game of a two game total points series provincial match up.
The Wings have been the only team to cause Yorkton any kind of trouble this season and on paper it looked like it would be a very close game. On paper.
On the ice it was a different story as the Terriers took a 4-0 lead into the second period on a pair of goals from Ryder Korczak and one each from Kaeden Korczak and Zach McIntyre.
Colby Vranai made it 5-0 for Yorkton midway through the second period when a beautiful stretch pass by Aiden Bulych sent Vranai in alone on Matthew Dutchak.
Steven Kesslering got Weyburn on the board less than a minute later to make it 5-1, but Ryder Korczak would get that one back for the Terriers. With 2:06 remaining in the period Korczak fired a weak shot that eluded Dutchak for his third goal of the game.
Four more goals in the third period, two more by McIntyre and one each for Bulych and Ethan Evanovich, gave Yorkton a 10-1 win and more importantly a commanding nine goal lead in the two game provincial total points series .
The win, while expected, still shocked Sherring Gold Terriers head coach Chad Korczak. "Going into this game, I'll be honest, I was hoping for a couple goal win for sure. But 10? That came as a shock," offered Korczak. "This 10-1 win is just a bonus heading back to Weyburn with this kind of lead. It definitely gives us some breathing room."
Korczak had previously mentioned how tough it can be when trying to convince young kids the importance of continuing to push the tempo of play. With a 6-1 lead after two periods it would have been easy for the Sherring Gold Terriers to take their foot off the gas pedal and allow Weyburn back in to the game. However, Korczak felt what he said to the kids in the locker room really sunk in. "heading into the third I told the kids 'you're in a great spot here to really open it up' and they responded well with four goals.
"We just asked for another 20 minutes for them to play as hard as they could and whatever it is it is and that's how they came out."
Next action
The next action for the Yorkton Sherring Gold Terriers will be Friday, February 21 when they travel to Weyburn for game two of their two game total points series.
For Yorkton to win they need to either win the game, or lose by less than nine goals.

i just found this link which is talking about a new update lurking around for Belle users.
Just wondering whether this is NEWS or has been doing the rounds for a while?
Any insider info on how big the chnages are going to be? And please, a browser update so desparately needed!

It's a bit strange because the date of the article is for today but they are describing updating the phones to Belle, which happened back in February.
18-07-2012 11:36 - edited 18-07-2012 11:39
This article says that Nokia Belle phones will get more updates. However, there's no official announcement for all I know (Nokia stated that more updates will become available for 1st gen. S^3 devices but they haven't posted any article saying that those updates have already become available).

I have listened to this song, like, 1 million times since I've heard it. I have their album "Cycles" and I never even thought about checking out any of their other music. But I'm glad I did. And BTW, someone made a comment about not liking famous bands, and I just had to say how lame that is. I hate people that try not to conform, if you like it, then like it no matter how popular it is. Anyway, great song and band.

Connecticut Public Utilities Regulatory Authority Vice Chairman John Betkoski III has been named to leadership positions with two organizations focused on utility regulatory issues.
Betkoski was named president of the New England Conference of Public Utilities Commissioners and to the Executive Committee of the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners. His new positions were announced in a news release Friday by the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, PURA's parent agency.
NECPUC provides regional regulatory assistance on matters of common concern to the six New England States. It addresses issues regarding electric, gas, telecommunications and public drinking water public service companies.
NARUC represents utility regulatory authorities in all 50 states as well as the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. NARUC represents the interests of state public utility commissioners before the three branches of the federal government.
Betkoski has served on Connecticut's utility regulatory authority since 1997 when he was named a commissioner of the Department of Public Utility Control. He was elected vice chairman of that body in 2007. When PURA was established on July 1, 2011, as the state's new regulatory authority, Betkoski was appointed a director by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and elected as vice chairman of the new authority.

A scary crash on the Loop 202 Monday slowed the morning commute.
Check out the pictures from SkyFOX over the accident scene just north of the Loop 101 exit.
Two cars were involved in the crash and as you can see, they were smashed up against a barrier wall.
Firefighters had to cut the roof off of the black car to get the driver out.
Amazingly, no one was hurt.

There are two types of fiber -- soluble fiber and insoluble fiber. While insoluble fiber has not been shown to lower cholesterol, soluble fiber has the ability to especially lower your LDL, or "bad" cholesterol. In fact, The National Cholesterol Education Program recommends that you should consume between 10 to 25 grams of soluble fiber each day.
If you are not getting enough fiber each day, there are many easy ways to add it to your diet. Here are just a few diet tips for adding fiber to your healthy diet:
- Make sure that you are including plenty of fruits and vegetables in your diet. Both can be eaten alone or added to your favorite dishes. These contain both soluble and insoluble fiber, which can help to slightly lower your cholesterol, improve your digestive health, and add plenty of nutrients to your diet.
- Don't be tempted to eat chips and cookies during a snack break. Instead, snack on veggies or nuts, which are high-fiber foods.
- Replace white bread with wheat bread. Making this simple switch can lower the amount of sugar you consume in a meal and increase your fiber intake.
- Leave the peels on your favorite fruits and vegetables. While you may be tempted to cut away the peel, the peel itself contains a lot of fiber, too.
- Finding yourself grasping for that doughnut in the morning? Instead, why don't you make a bowl of oatmeal, add fruit to your cereal, or reach for a bran muffin instead. All of these foods can add a little bit of fiber to your diet.

JU head men's basketball coach Cliff Warren has been named a finalist for the inaugural Ben Jobe Coach of the Year Award presented by Collegeinsider.com.
The Ben Jobe Award was created to recognize the top minority coach in the country. The award is named for coaching legend Ben Jobe, who spent the majority of his career at Historically Black Colleges and Universities, won 524 games in 31 years. He is best known for his accomplishments at Southern University, where he took the program to four NCAA Tournament appearances and one NIT berth.
Warren is one of 15 finalists for the award, joining an elite group that is comprised of Tommy Amaker (Harvard), Mike Anderson (Missouri), Tevester Anderson (Jackson State), Tony Barbee (UTEP), Todd Bozeman (Morgan State), Ed Cooley (Fairfield), Mike Davis (UAB), Stan Heath (South Florida), Ron Hunter (IUPUI), Sydney Johnson (Princeton), Johnny Jones (North Texas), Marvin Menzies (New Mexico State), Shaka Smart (VCU), John Thompson III (Georgetown) and Cliff Warren (Jacksonville).
"I'm extremely honored to be considered for this award as Coach Jobe is one of the legends in the coaching ranks," said Warren. "But this is recognition more for what the young men in our program have accomplished this year."

Boeing Machinists On Verge Of A Tense Vote
November 12, 2013 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
SEATTLE (UPI) — Jobs are hanging in the balance as machinists in the Seattle area prepare to vote on a Boeing contract proposal, union and company officials said.
At a signing ceremony where Governor Jay Inslee put his signature on corporate tax breaks that were rushed into law at Boeing's insistence, Boeing Commercial Airlines Chief Executive Officer Ray Conner said, "it's not a bluff," referring to the company's threat to pull 777X production out of the state if the union turns down the proposal in a vote on Wednesday.
Inslee said 56,000 jobs were at stake, including 20,000 Boeing jobs and thousands of other jobs supported by Boeing employees.
Along with tax breaks, the state quickly passed other concessions for Boeing, which has a second assembly plant in the non-union state of South Carolina that could take away 777X production from Boeing's facilities in Everett, Wash., near Seattle.
Washington agreed to speed up regulatory approval of Boeing projects and support aerospace training with State funds, The Seattle Times reported Tuesday.
"Most importantly, this is about the future. It's about jobs," Machinists District 751 President Tom Wroblewski said at the signing ceremony.
Wroblewski, however, would not say which way he would vote on the contract proposal that he tore up and denounced less than a week ago.
The contract would give members of the machinists union a 1 percent raise every other year plus a cost of living adjustment. It would also make changes to pension and health benefits, the Times said.
Some union members remain angered by the proposals, the Times said.
"I've gone on strike for months over contract offers that were way better than this," said Robley Evans, a forklift driver and a union steward and vice president in the union's Local F unit.
The new proposal, "completely stinks," he said.

Phils' Oswalt Plays LF After Howard Ejected
This just cracks me up. Roy Oswalt was forced to play left field last night after Ryan Howard was thrown out for arguing a check-swing strike call after his 5th strikeout of the night (he went 0/7). Oswalt recorded a routine putout in left but also made the final out in the 16th inning in the 4-2 loss to the 'Stros. Classic Phillies.

ODU's Colberg-Ochs quoted in WebMD article
Old Dominion University exercise physiologist Sheri Colberg-Ochs was quoted in a Jan. 14 WedMD article, "Taking 10,000 Steps a Day May Lower Diabetes Risk."
The article, by Denise Mann of WebMD Health News, discusses new research in the journal BMJ. As Mann notes in the article: "Of 592 middle-aged Australian adults, those who increased the number of steps they took during a five-year period and built up to 10,000 steps per day had a lower body mass index, less belly fat, and better insulin sensitivity than their counterparts who did not take as many steps daily during the same time period."
The article cites Colberg-Ochs as an ODU faculty member and an American Diabetes Association spokeswoman, who says that taking extra steps can help improve diabetes control, even among those who do not exhibit weight loss.
"It's a good idea to walk or exercise more, but this may not necessarily lead to weight loss, but it will help improve insulin action and diabetes control," Colberg-Ochs says in the article, which goes on to note: "Physical activity may lead to changes in body fat composition instead of weight loss, and these changes may help prevent or treat diabetes."
WebMD, an American corporation, is well known for its public Internet site, which offers health and health care information.
An ODU professor of exercise science, Colberg-Ochs chaired a combined ACSM/ADA committee that wrote a joint position paper of the American College of Sports Medicine and the American Diabetes Association, which was published concurrently in the December 2010 issue of the journal Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise and the ADA journal Diabetes Care.
Colberg-Ochs, who specializes in diabetes and exercise research, is a frequent national lecturer and author. She has written eight books and more than 200 articles on exercise, diabetes, healthy lifestyles, fitness, nutrition, aging, weight loss, diabetic Latinos and more.

Heading into the final two weeks of most teams' regular season, a clear Top Five has emerged in both major polls, and, I suspect, the Blogpoll. In recent weeks, work life has kept me from working the poll, much less other blog duties. For the next two weeks, at least, I am in blog-plosion mode, but my poll ballots will be a great deal more subjective/conventional. We'll say that I have been too consumed with the only two hate weeks that, for me, are really legitimate.
This week's ballot is brought to you by blind rage.
I hope you find it satisfactory, nevertheless.
1. Auburn
2. Oregon
3. Boise State
I expect little disagreement exists regarding the Top Five.
6. Michigan State
7. Wisconsin
8. Stanford
9. Nebraska
10. Ohio State
After its eighty-point win over the weekend, Wisconsin looks like the best team in the Big Ten, but then I remembered that Sparty beat Wisconsin. Head-to-head means something, which is why Ohio has to be behind Wisconsin. To boot, Stanford and Nebraska have more wins over Top 25 teams than does Ohio State.
11. Oklahoma State
12. Alabama
13. Arkansas
14. Missouri
15. Oklahoma
The Cowpokes handed Texas its jeepers-inducing sixth loss in Austin. Alabama has losses to almost-certain New Year's Day bowl teams (of course, so does Arkansas). Missouri grabbed a win over a ranked Kansas State team and has the head-to-head win over Oklahoma.
16. Virginia Tech
17. Nevada
18. So. Car
With a trip to Miami next, Virginia Tech may actually earn its lofty sixteenth ranking. Nevada squeaked out a thrilling win over a Fresno State team we know well. South Carolina is your SEC East Champion. And, of course, the other USC beat Arizona on the road.
21. Arizona
22. Iowa
23. State
24. Northwestern
25. Utah
Speaking of Arizona, they have looked pretty good. Looking forward to hosting Arkansas, Mississippi State might find itself unranked next week. And Utah is ranked, but I'm not sure why.

Prolonged heartache
23 years on and still no official printed apology from The Sun and News International. And, would a sincere and meaningful "sorry, we lied to sell more papers" be a suitable atonement?
Let's not let them off the hook
The media coverage Hillsborough received had severe consequences not only on those associated with the disaster but the Liverpool population general. Not only did the families and community have to deal with the distraught news of their loses, but to be then faced with alarming allegations that their deaths were caused by their own fans, was nothing short of a disgrace.
The Sun lied, plain and simple
Britain's best selling redtop was disturbingly at the heart of these devastating reports. The Sun unethically claiming that Liverpool fans were robbing the dead bodies, urinating on servicemen and fighting amongst the terror of the incident. "The Truth" was the headline they ran with, the truth was what they failed to mention.
Not only was this a vicious and unruly attack on those dealing with the horror, it seriously tarnished the reputation of us Liverpudlians.
The inexcusable actions of both the source of the story and The Sun will forever be remembered in Liverpool, but as families fighting for the justice of their loved ones, they're also calling on The Sun to reveal the identities of those who sourced those sickening lies, somebody still needs to take responsibility for those horrific remarks.
I'm still angry for the families
I'm angered at how The Sun have practically ignored and avoided any wrongdoing, it's as if they're hoping the memory will just fade and even when faced with an opportunity to apologise, their arrogance proceeds them.
Take a look at this passage from Kenny Dalglish's autobiography, after he received a call from the then editor of The Sun, Kelvin MacKenzie.
"How can we correct the situation?" he said.
"You know that big headline – 'The Truth'?"
I replied. "All you have to do is put 'We lied' in the same size. Then you might be all right."
Mackenzie said: "I cannot do that."
"Well," I replied, "I cannot help you then."
Time is supposed be the healer of pain and misery, however in this case that time has caused further distress and frustration for a community in the North West of England. I am sure an apology alone will not suffice to address the destruction "The Truth" article caused, but it's at least be a start.

Just a quick note for everyone that uses Flipboard, I started a magazine that curates news from Cowboys sites around the Internet including the best one of all "Blogging the Boys!". Just open it up and search for the Dallas Cowboys.
It includes the mothership, news sites, a few other blogs like bleacher report etc, as well as some others. When setting it up you really realize how great the coverage is here and how balanced and fair it is compared to some places that just post sensational stuff as link bait. I tried to include only the best.
If you know of a site you want included please let me know.

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) – A convicted ax murderer, on Delaware's death row for some 18 years, was executed on Friday at the state prison in Smyrna.
Robert W. Jackson III, 38, was put to death by lethal injection shortly after midnight, Delaware Governor Jack Markell announced.
He was sentenced to death for killing Elizabeth Girardi, 47, with blows from an ax he wielded during a 1992 burglary attempt at her home in Hockessin, Delaware.
It was Delaware's first execution since 2005.
Governor Markell denied a last-minute request for a reprieve, noting that the U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals and the U.S. Supreme Court had already decided not to stay the execution.
"Mr. Jackson's death sentence was recommended by a jury, imposed by a judge, and reviewed by state and federal appellate courts at all levels," the governor said in a statement issued at 12:12 a.m. local time, shortly after the death of Jackson, who was 18 at the time of the murder.
"It is my prayer that his victim rests in peace and her family finds some closure, May God have mercy on Mr. Jackson," Markell said.
It was the 30th execution in the U.S. this year compared with 46 in all of 2010, according to the Death Penalty Information Center.

As reported on the news last night and in an article by our friend Aaron Wilson of the National Football Post, the Baltimore Ravens' Ed Reed said the team refused to send him game film to watch and he's a bit ticked off at them. Head Coach John Harbaugh says he is not concerned about Reed's attitude in another story by Wilson.
I'm sure the team is disputing Reed's accusations and something tells me this will alll blow over as Reed goes on to say that he is not concerned with the money as much as he loves playing the game. Seems like he's playing both sides of the argument but if he is healthy, I say give him the money so he can finish his career as a Raven, and one of the greatest safeties to ever play the game.

St. Charles North High School ranked No. 26 and St. Charles East High School ranked No. 41 on an annual list of the top high schools in Illinois released by U.S. News & World Report this week.
The methodology, which was unchanged since last year, looks at three main factors to decide a school's ranking: whether students are performing better than statistically expected for the average student in the state; whether disadvantaged students are performing better in math and reading than the state average for their peers; and the school's "college-readiness" performance, based on AP or International Baccalaureate test data.
In Illinois, the Prairie State Achievement Examination is used to gauge student performance to determine the ranking.
You can read more about the methodology here.The top four schools are all Chicago selective enrollment high schools. The highest-ranked suburban school was Adlai E. Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire at No. 5, followed by Deerfield High School and Hinsdale Central High School. You can view the full list here.

Thursday: We'll wake up and get out the door to face chilly temperatures, but at least there won't be any spotty rain, drizzle or clouds around. Instead, here comes a blue sky with plenty of sun tomorrow. Temperatures will start in the 30s and make it all the way into the middle-upper 50s by afternoon in Upstate & NE Georgia towns. Western NC towns will reach the low 50s in many places with some middle 50s in the valleys, especially south and east of Asheville and Hendersonville.
Friday: Friday will feature more sunshine and more blue sky as the next cold front approaches from the northwest. Temperatures across Upstate towns will reach the upper 50s to near 60° in the afternoon with Western NC highs reaching the low 50s with some breezy winds in the mountains.
Saturday: Windy and cooler conditions will be the focus on Saturday as a strong, cold front makes its entrance. Because of the wind and Canadian air mass settling across our region, temperatures won't feel warm at all. By afternoon, Upstate towns will range between 38° and 44° with Western NC towns only making it into the 30s with some low 40s.
Also, a brief snow flurry isn't out of the question Saturday night. Although, even with the air being plenty cold enough for snow, the upper level jet stream structure won't be aligned correctly for a system. Without any storm system around Saturday, that will drastically limit the precipitation possibilities. This will primarily just be a windy, dry and cold air mass settling into place.
Sunday: Lows in the morning will be the toughest part of Sunday. Expect teens early in the morning for Western NC towns and low 20s with some teens possible in Upstate/NE Georgia towns.
By the afternoon, expect chilly conditions, but most of the wind should be dying down at that point.

CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) -- The Nevada State Education Association has enough signatures to force the state Legislature to consider a business tax increase to fund public schools.
The secretary of state's office ruled Friday the teachers union collected nearly 107,300 valid signatures for its 2 percent business profits tax petition.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports (http://bit.ly/VSkPKt ) that's well more than the required 72,000.
The state Supreme Court still must decide whether a 200-word petition description signed by registered voters sufficiently explains the $800 million-a-year tax measure. Justices heard arguments Wednesday.
If they OK it, the proposal will be one of the most controversial items before the Legislature.
Teachers union chief Lynn Warne says Nevadans support having corporations pay more to fund K-12 schools.
Gov. Brian Sandoval has vowed to veto any new tax.

QuickMemo, the handy note-taking feature from LG, will be available for Virgin Mobile's LG Optimus Elite.
The previously leaked G3 Stylus will be unveiled in Berlin next week -- but don't expect it to steal the thunder from Samsung's Galaxy Note 4 announcement.
A tablet for a dollar? AT&T's latest bundled offer makes it so.
The prepaid carrier starts selling its most affordable LTE-ready smartphone to date.
LG's new flagship smartphone will sport a 4.7-inch WXGA screen and 13-megapixel rear-facing camera.
After the disappointment of the first L series, the LG Optimus L Series 2 reveals the L7 2, L5 2 and L3 2.
A stylus-toting G3 variant has leaked, but will this rumored LG phone have what it takes to usurp the mighty Samsung Galaxy Note?
The LG smartphone will be offered with Simple Choice Plans for zero down as part of a limited-time promotion.
The LG Optimus Regard has a 3.5-inch touch screen, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, and runs on Cricket's nascent 4G LTE network.
Don't like LG's placement of its smartphone control buttons on the back of the G3 as it's done with some earlier phones? Better get used to it, because they aren't going anywhere.

Princess Anne visits Plumpton Racecourse
10:51am Tuesday 1st April 2014 in News
There was a royal reception at Plumpton Racecourse as The Princess Royal visited.
Her Royal Highness, President of Racing Welfare, hosted a lunch for more than 300 guests in aid of the charity.
The charity raceday also featured a silent auction in the Pavilion marquee.
The day was made even more memorable by a jockey space-hopper race. The going was good and the good got going on the popular Seventies toy.
Racing Welfare provides specialist counselling and support services for anyone in need who works in the thoroughbred breeding and racing industry.
