Brian Urlacher goes from media snob to media slob
BY RICK MORRISSEY Sports Columnist August 26, 2013 10:20PM
Updated: August 27, 2013 10:32AM
Many years ago, the NFL team I covered had a cornerback who refused to talk with reporters. No one knew where it all had gone wrong in his dealings with the media, but it was clear he rather would have gargled with Drano than associate with us.
No big deal. There were lots of other guys in the locker room who were willing to use their vocal cords. When the cornerback would get burned on a touchdown, we were left to sift through the ashes because he refused to give his side of things. Again, fine. His choice.
A few years later, the then-retired cornerback called the newspaper. Imagine being the reporter who answered. It must have been like hearing Alexander Graham Bell's voice during the first telephone call. The cornerback wanted to see if the newspaper was interested in writing a story about his new business venture.
How's that for nerve?
On Sunday, I heard someone mention Brian Urlacher was going to be a TV analyst. I thought I must have heard wrong. No way the former Bears linebacker would join the Dark Side. He wasn't as bad with the media as the aforementioned cornerback had been, but I never got the feeling he would have reached for a bucket if a reporter's hair were on fire. So no way he would put in with us media slobs. I went back to minding my own business.
On Monday, I Googled ''Urlacher'' and ''TV.'' And there it was. Urlacher will be an NFL analyst for the new Fox Sports 1 network. I guess I missed the news while covering the Cubs' big turnaround.
How's that for a 180 on Urlacher's part?
Maybe he will be great on TV. When he was in a good mood with the local media, which wasn't often, he could be entertaining and illuminating. But most of the time, he grunted one-word answers. It sounded like a guy trying to pull an airplane with his teeth in the World's Strongest Man competition.
Three things: 1) The networks don't care how a former athlete treated the media. 2) Many star athletes lack the self-awareness to understand that when they treat the media like crap, they are treating the fans like crap. 3) Fans don't seem to mind being treated like crap by star athletes.
So there's enough blissful fog to cover everyone involved.
But just for the record, here's what Urlacher said about reporters and fans while defending Lovie Smith in December: ''Two of the people I don't care about: fans or media. They can say what they want to about our head coach, about our players. . . . They don't know what they're talking about, obviously.
''I know there are a lot of experts in the media, a bunch of smart guys out there who know exactly what they're talking about all the time. They don't know what they're talking about. Lovie is the head coach of this football team and hopefully will be for a long time.''
The Bears sent Lovie packing after the season and made a one-year contract offer to Urlacher they hoped he wouldn't accept. He didn't, and now he is getting ready to join his pal Jay Glazer on Fox. I hope the network is coaching Urlacher to slow down when he talks. When he was in an expansive mood, he talked about as quickly as he moved from sideline to sideline on the field.
He won't be the first person to go from media critic to media member. The most egregious example is NFL Network analyst Sterling Sharpe, who refused to talk with Green Bay media late in his career with the Packers, then went to work for ESPN and NBC. Neither network seemed particularly bothered by the possibility his previous vow of silence suggested a certain disdain for the industry.
No one at ESPN had a pang of guilt over hiring Bob Knight, who as a coach and media hater had been the envy of dictators the world over. Quarterback Brian Griese could be difficult with the media as a player. So could golfer Nick Faldo. But they went on to careers as broadcasters because, well, I'm not sure why they did. Because they wanted to make amends? No. Because the money was good? Yeah, that sounds right.
I have a feeling that, as time goes on, very few people will recall how Urlacher treated the media in Chicago.
But some of us will remember as he yuks it up on Fox.

New York: Acura ZDX aimed squarely at BMW X6
by John Neff (RSS feed) on Apr 8th, 2009 at 12:15PM
After a few weeks of teasing, Acura has finally revealed the ZDX, its new four-door, luxury crossover "coupe" that is clearly aimed at the similarly proportioned BMW X6. The ZDX wears the now familiar shield grille and sharp styling that has spread across the entire Acura lineup. To further emphasize the crossover's coupiness, Acura designers have hid the rear door handles in the base of the C-pillar. The ZDX rides tall on 20-inch, 9-spoke wheels and also glints under the lights thanks to a number of chrome trim pieces including a pair of shiny dual exhausts out back. Inside you'll find...

KENTUCKY (10/29/13) - We typically use the vacuum cleaner hose to help clean the house, but did you know your vacuum cleaner hose and packing peanuts can be used to help teach an important science lesson?
• Vacuum Cleaner Hose
• Styrofoam Packing Peanuts
STEP 1: Place several Styrofoam packing peanuts on a table.
STEP 2: Spin the vacuum cleaner hose above your head while placing the other end of the hose close to the Styrofoam packing peanuts.
A low pressure forms inside of the vacuum hose as you spin it above your head. The higher pressure outside of the vacuum hose pushes the Styrofoam packing peanuts into the hose and out of the other end. Go to www.hookedonscience.org for more experiments that might get you and your family "Hooked on Science."

Microsoft announced that, it will begin automatically updating its users to the most recent version of its Internet Explorer browser. Customers on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 with automatic updating enabled via Windows Update will be upgraded up to the latest version of IE. For Vista and Windows 7, that's IE9, and for XP, that's IE8. The upgrades started with customers in Brazil and Australia, and then rolled out gradually to the rest of the world, Microsoft said on The Windows Blog.
If you want to upgrade at your own pace or keep your current browser, Microsoft has an IE8 and IE9 Automatic Update Blocker toolkit, which prevents automatic browser upgrades.
Note: If you've declined a previous installation of IE8 or IE9 via Windows Update in the past, you will not receive the auto-update. There's also the option to uninstall updates and return to the browser that came with your copy of Windows. Future versions of IE will also allow an opt-out for automatic upgrading.
So does this even matter? In short, Yes. Having an up-to-date browser is the safest way to surf the Web. Updates include security patches and fixes for bugs that might make your browser vulnerable to attacks. But many people don't take the time to update their browser or, in some cases, don't even realize such an option exists. That's one of the reasons why so many people are still running out of date browser like IE6.
Google's Chrome provides automatic upgrades for its users, usually with regular, incremental updates. Mozilla's Firefox recently switched to a faster release cycle similar to Google, and back in May, it automatically upgraded Mozilla users from Firefox 3.5 to 3.6. Microsoft, however, has kept its longer release cycle: IE8 made it's debut in 2008, IE9 early 2011, and IE10 is on the horizon. Part of the consideration for Microsoft, is its enterprise clients and in a separate blog post, Microsoft said the IE Blocker Tool will also be available to businesses.
"The IE9 Blocker Toolkit helps ensure that IE9 is introduced to PCs at the right time. This way you can still test any updates before they are pushed out to your users," Microsoft said. "For non-managed environments, this will improve safety and security of the browser experience as well as performance and standards compliance."

Piano Performance
Topics in Piano Performance explores many dimensions of piano performance, and focuses on different special topics each semester, made explicit by a decimalization of the course number, and the special topic designation as part of the course title. In addition to focusing on study of repertoire in a masterclass format, potential topics include performance practice associated with different eras in music, exploration of particular genres, issues surrounding public performance and memorization, improvisation in different styles, composition for the piano, sight-reading and score reading, collaborative piano, performance techniques for 20th and 21st century music, and jazz. Exact topics will vary each semester depending on student needs and interest. The class may be taken up to 4 times for credit.
The class is open to all piano majors, and to non-majors by audition. Class topics culminate in a Final Performance Project in Lang Hall, usually focusing on works of a particular composer and/or genre. Some examples from past and future semesters include Scriabin's Preludes and Etudes, Shostakovich Preludes & Fugues, Mendelssohn's Songs Without Words, Bartók's Mikrokosmos (Vols. 4-6), Debussy's Preludes, Schubert's Winterreise (the entire song cycle, with each pianist performing 1-2 songs, accompanying M.A. Voice Majors) and Cage's Sonatas and Interludes for Prepared Piano.
Auditions for non-piano majors are held just prior to and throughout the registration periods preceding the semester in which the class is offered. Students should be prepared to play at least one work, or substantial movement of a work. For more information, please contact Prof. Geoffrey Burleson.

Canadian, 19th century
Verge, 1850
silver mounts, ebonized wood
102.7 x 2.6 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Acquired with a repatriation grant from the Government of Canada through the Cultural Property Export and Import Act and unexpended acquisition funds
Metallic, Decorative Arts Silver
A verge is a staff borne by a bishop, or another person of authority, when entering or leaving the church, or on public occasions. This particular verge carries the engraving of a bishop's mitre over the initials F.M. (Francis, Montreal). On its reverse is engraved the date 1850. Consecrated the first Bishop of Montreal on July 25, 1850, the Reverend Francis Fulford carried this verge in procession during his enthronement later that same year at Christ Church Cathedral in Montreal. The maker, François Sasseville, served his apprenticeship under the Canadian silversmith Laurent Amiot. Sasseville was a successful and prolific silversmith, recognized particularly for his liturgical silver. He was often inspired by contemporary silver designs imported from France.

Honda expands headlight recall to include 820k Civic, Pilot models
by Steven J. Ewing (RSS feed) on Oct 4th, 2012 at 6:33PM
Back in March, Honda issued a recall of 554,000 CR-V and Pilot crossovers due to faulty headlamps. But last month, the automaker quietly issued an expansion of this recall that includes 820,000 Civic and Pilot models from the 2002-2003 and 2004-2005 model years, respectively. Honda began notifying owners of these newly affected vehicles in September. A possible wiring fault in the headlight switch could cause the low-beams to not work in these affected models, and we certainly don't need to tell you why that could be hazardous. Honda has stated that no crashes or injuries have been... Read More

Cold War Kids
Long Beach, CA's Cold War Kids make music with roots that go deep and wide, embracing influences as diverse as Bob Dylan, Billie Holiday, Jeff Buckley, and the Velvet Underground. Matt Aveiro, Matt Maust, Jonnie Russell, and Nathan Willett began crafting their soulful, blues-inflected take on indie rock as Cold War Kids in 2004, recording demos in Los Angeles soon after they formed. After signing to Monarchy Music, Cold War Kids released their debut EP, Mulberry Street, in spring 2005. The band's unique sound and impassioned live act generated a buzz -- particularly from bloggers -- that grew with each tour and release. Maust's clean but eye-catching designs for EPs like With Our Wallets Full and Up in Rags and the group's website also added to Cold War Kids' mystique. They spent much of 2006 on the road with Tapes 'n Tapes, Figurines, Sound Team, and Editors and appeared at that year's Lollapalooza. That summer, they signed to Downtown Records, also home to Art Brut and Gnarls Barkley. The band's full-length debut, Robbers & Cowards, arrived that fall. Loyalty to Loyalty, which moved in a slower, bluesier direction, was released in 2008. On Behave Yourself, an EP that had a digital release late in 2009 and was issued on CD early in 2010, Cold War Kids emphasized their soulful ballads. In 2010 the band went into the studio with Grammy-winning producer Jacquire King (Tom Waits, Kings of Leon). Their third album, Mine Is Yours, arrived in early 2011. - All Music Guide

Scroll saws help you make intricate designs for your woodworking projects
Scroll saws are unlike any other power saw. They create intricate decorative patterns and shapes in wood, metal or plastic. For fine woodworkers and craftsmen, a scroll saw is the tool that can make your project a work of art. Not only will you be able to create special projects, you'll be able to give them your own personal touch, from toys to furniture.
Sears has a wide variety of quality scroll saws from which to choose. While the tendency is to focus on the word power when purchasing a power tool, when it comes to scroll saws, the power of the tool comes in second to the features. It's key to have a scroll saw that you can easily use, so finding which model has the specifics you are looking for are key. With variable speeds, you have control over how quickly you trace the shape you've penciled onto the material you're working on. Go quickly on straight lines and slowly when making a lot of turns and curves. The dust blower and sawdust shield helps keep your line of visions clear while you use the scroll saw.
Also, consider the material you will be using the most often. Choose a machine that can handle the toughest materials you could ever see working on. If you undershoot to get a cheaper machine, you could end up having to upgrade in the future, costing you more. In addition, how quickly can you change blades? If the blade requires an extra tool to remove, you may want to choose an easier option.
One of our more popular options is the 16-inch Variable Speed Scroll Saw from Craftsman. Craftsman is America's most trusted brand. It measures 16 inches from blade to throat. The 1.6-amp scroll saw has a 60 Hz motor, operating at 120 volts. It has the variable speed you need for a scroll saw. The saw can operate at anywhere from 400 to 1,600 strokes per minute. With that, you can cut hard or soft woods, plastic and metal. It has a large cast iron worktable that tilts up to 45 degrees, allowing you to make bevel cuts. The multi-directional dust blower does the dirty work so you don't have to. It keeps your cutting line free of dust and debris. It also has a Shop Vac-compatible dust extraction port. It accepts standard 5-inch pin and plain-end blades. You can even stash extra blades right with the scroll saw, thanks to the on-board storage. It comes as a kit, which includes four pin and blank-end blades and a blade wrench.
In addition to Craftsman, Sears offers other trusted brands. So another scroll saw to check out while you're shopping today is the Rikon 16-inch Scroll Saw with Lamp. It's a variable speed scroll saw. The 5-inch blade can go from 550 to 1,650 strokes per minute. The cutting height is 2 inches tall with a 15 3/4-inch throat depth. The 10 1/16-inch by 16 1/4-inch table tilts, too, up to 45 degrees. The work lamp makes it easier for you to see where you're cutting, especially in low light situations.
You can make beautiful designs for your woodworking projects, thanks to scroll saws. The designs will set your work apart, which is great if you sell some of your products. You can also customize a project, putting initials and other intricate touches on it. In addition to buying one today, look at the band saws, radial arm saws and power tool combo kits Sears has online. Turn to Sears when you need quality tools at budget-friendly prices.

Pictures have power on the page — the power to grab your reader's attention and to convey or enhance your message. Pictures help the reader scan the page and find entry points into the text. They give the reader a quick summary of what the text is about and help the reader gauge his or her interest in diving into it. They also can help a reader quickly grasp complex ideas.
Pictures can relieve the tedium of gray type. But they can also distract the reader from your message if the pictures don't relate closely to the message. Make sure you are in control of your message with the pictures that you use in your publication.
When you create or select images for a publication, make them:
Top of Page
You can change the size and resolution of the graphics that you add, usually with good results. But sometimes a graphic can't be reduced or enlarged enough to fit your needs. That's why it is good to know what you need before you start and find the graphic that is the best match.
Graphics that are created by a paint program, a scanning program, or a digital camera are made up of a grid of differently colored squares called pixels. A picture contains the same amount of information, or number of pixels, whether you scale it larger or smaller in your publication.
The resolution of a picture is expressed in pixels per inch (ppi). You sometimes may see picture resolution expressed as dots per inch (dpi) instead of ppi. These terms are often used interchangeably.
If you want more details to appear as you enlarge your picture, you need to start with a picture that has more pixels, or a higher effective resolution. Enlarging a picture decreases the resolution (fewer ppi). Reducing the dimensions of a picture increases its resolution (more ppi).
If your picture resolution is too low, the picture will have a blocky appearance. If the picture resolution is too high, the file size of the publication becomes unnecessarily large, and it takes more time to open, edit, and print it. Pictures with a resolution higher than 1,000 ppi may not print at all.
Every picture in your publication has an effective resolution that takes into account the original resolution of the graphic and the effect of scaling it in Microsoft Office Publisher. For example, a picture with an original resolution of 300 ppi that has been scaled 200 percent larger has an effective resolution of 150 ppi.
To find the effective resolution of a picture in your publication, do the following:
If you plan to have color pictures printed by a commercial printer, the resolution of those pictures should be between 200 ppi and 300 ppi. You can have a higher resolution — up to 800 ppi — but you should not have a lower resolution. If you plan to use the pictures online only (on the Web or in Microsoft Office PowerPoint, for example), the pictures need to have a resolution of only 96 ppi, which is the screen resolution of computer monitors.
The file format can also affect file size. Before you change the resolution of your picture, make sure you use a file format that is appropriate for the content of the image. The following table lists common picture file formats, their uses, and their advantages.
If you have just a few graphics whose resolution is too high, you may have no problem printing them. If you have several high-resolution graphics, your publication will be printed more efficiently if you reduce their resolution by compressing them.
Before you compress a picture, determine its size on the page. When you compress a picture in Publisher, it loses detail, so later enlargement will likely result in lower quality than you intended. You can reduce the dimensions of a compressed picture further without a loss in quality. If you do so, compress it again to remove additional unneeded image data.
Important Before you reduce the resolution of a graphic that you intend to include in a publication that will be printed by a commercial printer, you should consult with your commercial printing service. They will be able to tell you exactly what resolution you need.
In Publisher, you can reduce the resolution of one, several, or all pictures by compressing them.
A compressed version of the same picture or pictures replaces the original high-resolution picture or pictures.
Each time you insert a picture in your publication, the publication grows in size. By linking to the pictures instead, you can avoid a large file size caused by embedded graphics.
When you link to pictures, any subsequent changes that are made to the image files will be reflected in the pictures in your publication.
Note If you move your publication to a different computer, be sure also to move copies of the linked pictures. When you use the Pack and Go Wizard, this step is done for you.
With good ideas, a good eye, and good equipment, you can take your own pictures or hire someone to take them.
If you don't have the ability to create professional-quality photos or illustrations, look for pictures at a variety of online sources, including:
The wide availability of images online makes it tempting to copy and reuse a picture from the Web without explicit permission or payment.
Avoid copyright infringement action by making sure that you have the right to use an image before you publish it. For example, you can use any image in the Office Clip Art and Media Library without restriction, except if the image becomes a product for sale.
When you buy stock photography, you buy the rights to use it for a variety of purposes. Most clip art and stock photography cannot be used for resale; that is, you can use it to promote your business, but you cannot use it as the product itself.
If you have any doubts about using an image, contact the source owner and ask for permission before you publish it.
When you know the kind of pictures that you want, the resolution that you need, the file format that works best, and the copyright and usage issues, you need to find the images that will work best for your publication.
How do you narrow your search within the vast array of images in clip art and stock photography libraries? The differences between each service call for different search strategies, but we will use the Office Clip Art and Media Library, with its more than 140,000 images, to demonstrate some strategies for finding the right picture.
This section has been excerpted from Make clip art look original in Publisher, by Mary Sauer, Microsoft MVP and creator of the Clip Art & Media Help Web site.
Finding the perfect clip on the Clip Art and Media on Office Online Web site is easy when you know what you want. You can search the Web site from within Publisher by using the Clip Art task pane, or you can go directly to the site's home page.
After you type a search term into the Search for box and click Go, clips that match the search term appear in the task pane. You can click a clip in the task pane to insert it into your publication.
If you decide that you want more search options, you can click Clip art on Office Online at the bottom of the task pane to open the Office Clip Art and Media Web site. On the Web site, you can limit searches by category or style, and you can choose many clips at one time to download and store in the Microsoft Clip Organizer for future use.
One of the most efficient ways to search on the Web site is to start with a category. For example, simple pictures of people always make good illustrations for business topics. On the Office Clip Art and Media home page, under Browse Clip Art and Media Categories, you can click the People category.
At the top of the home page, you can type words such as woman, desk, computer, or meeting, and then click Go.
If you don't know what category to look in, choose keywords from your publication and use these in the Search list. For example, if your topic pertains to catering, type words such as food, utensils, or waiter.
You can also limit your search by media type (Clip art, Photos, or Animations, for example) before you enter specific terms. In the Search list, click Clip art. Then type your terms.
You can find the clips used in the examples later in this article by clicking Clip art in the Search list and typing theaters or masks.
For more details about using the Office Clip Art and Media Web site, click a link in the See Also section.
Most clips on the Office Clip Art and Media Web site have a style number. To add consistency to a publication, you can choose clips that all have the same style number.
Note When you download clips from the Office Clip Art and Media Web site, you can no longer see the style numbers in Properties.
When you click the style number (436 in the illustration), the Office Clip Art and Media Web site shows clips in all categories that are similar in style.
From the Office Clip Art and Media Web site, you can add a clip to your publication or download one or more clips to your computer:
Tip To avoid problems with downloading clips, remember to keep your Internet cache cleared. Symptoms of a full cache include:
To clear your cache, do the following:
You can alter and enhance your pictures so that your publications have the unique look or character that suits your customers and your business. Although you can use a photo-editing program, such as Microsoft Digital Image 2006 or Adobe Photoshop, to create a nearly limitless number of changes, you can use the drawing tools in Publisher to make a wide range of refinements to a picture, including the following:
Remember: When you use any effect, you can give your publication a consistent appearance by applying the effect to all pictures in your publication.
Tip After you modify a clip, you may want to save it so that you can use it again. To save a modified clip, right-click it, and then click Save as Picture on the shortcut menu. In the Save As dialog box, in the Save as type list, click a file format. If you plan to use the modified clip in print publications, save it in Microsoft Windows Metafile (.wmf) format. If you plan to use the clip in Web publications, click Change, and then click Web (96 dpi). Save the clip in Graphics Interchange Format (.gif). Click a location in Save in, and then click Save.
When you crop an image, you are removing any areas that you don't want to be shown. In this example, all but the lower-right portion of the large image was cropped to focus tightly on the masks. The result is shown in the smallest image.
When you find the perfect clip for your document, it might not be the right size. Because cropping isn't always appropriate, you can enlarge or reduce the clip so that it fits within a certain area. For example, the first clip below was reduced to the second clip.
Note Dragging an open circle at a corner resizes the image proportionally. If you drag one of the side circles, the image grows or shrinks disproportionately, as shown here.
Rotating a clip can enhance a page design by adding a dynamic asymmetry. For example, this mask in its vertical orientation is static and predictable. Rotated slightly, the mask gives the impression of movement (without the distraction of animation).
Flipping a clip can provide symmetrical balance to the page. This pair of performers is created by copying the clip on the left and flipping its pasted duplicate on the right. They might serve as bookends for an important headline.
Adding a drop shadow to a clip can give dimension and depth to your publication, and it can provide a professional appearance.
Note To remove a drop shadow, click Shadow Style and then select No Shadow.
You can change the appearance of a clip by adjusting the contrast and brightness of the image.
Adjust the levels and compare the differences. For example, you can make a clip darker by decreasing the brightness, or you can subdue it by reducing the contrast.
If you want to place the clip behind text, you can wash out the clip by clicking Color on the Picture toolbar and then selecting the Washout option.
The mask that was rotated earlier in this article provides a good example of the value of ungrouping and deleting parts. The original clip that was downloaded from the Clip Art and Media Web site includes two masks and additional items. The goal is to use each mask separately.
After you paste or insert the clip into your publication, the first step is to ungroup it. Ungrouping breaks a piece of clip art into individual parts. Now you can delete the parts that you don't want and regroup a simpler picture.
Note A clip that has been ungrouped and regrouped looks dimmed in your publication, but it is printed sharp and clear.
The ungrouped clip is now covered with small, round selection handles. This is because you ungrouped the clip into all of its parts, and all the individual parts are selected.
If you select the entire mask, you can click within the left mask and drag it away from the other parts of the picture for easier modifying. You might want to delete the three triangles, recolor the masks, and align them differently, as shown here.
This colorful clip provides a more complex example of simplifying a clip. In its original form, this clip might distract from the message, but you don't have to abandon the clip. You can resize it, ungroup it, delete unwanted parts, and recolor it to subdue the colors so that it will serve exactly the purpose that you want.
You are ready to delete the unwanted parts.
For example, in the theater clip, you can delete the patterns on the buildings, the ground, the performer's costume, the highlights on the masks and performer's face, the sunbeams in the sky, and the box that surrounds the entire clip (most clip art has a transparent surrounding box), as shown here.
Tip You can select several parts at a time by holding down SHIFT and clicking each part.
When you have deleted all the unnecessary parts, you can regroup the clip. If you want to make some more changes to the clip, leave it ungrouped.
Tip If only one part is left after you delete the unwanted parts, you won't see the Group Objects button.
You could stop now, but the vibrant colors will jump out on a page of text. The picture will work better if the colors are toned down. Now that the clip is simplified, you are ready to recolor it so that it creates less of a distraction.
To recolor a clip, you first have to select it. After you click the entire clip, click again on a part that you want to recolor (dark gray circles surround the selected part).
Tip If the dark gray circles are difficult to see against the background color of the clip, you may want to ungroup the clip again so the parts are easier to identify. Selected parts in an ungrouped clip have white handles that stand out better. If you ungroup the clip to recolor it, be sure to group it again after you finish recoloring.
Here are some actions that you can take to recolor the parts of a clip. All of the buttons are on the Formatting toolbar.
Note To display the Formatting toolbar, on the View menu, point to Toolbars and then click Formatting.
In this clip, a gradient fill effect that varies from orange in one corner to indigo in the opposite corner creates the sunset. The buildings use a horizontal gradient fill effect that darkens near the base of the buildings to mimic the light at dusk.
Applying a uniform color to a range of clips that vary in color and style is a simple way to unify your publication. Using one spot color when you print your publication at a commercial printing service reduces printing costs while giving the publication the richness of an added accent color.
Note If the clip has been converted to a Microsoft drawing object, the Recolor button is unavailable. Use Fill Colors and Fill Effects instead. For more information about recoloring a drawing object, see the previous section in this article.
One way to add a professional look is to add text that wraps around an image. The Text Wrapping feature lets you place a clip amid blocks of text.
You can wrap text around, over and under, or through a picture. You also can choose to edit the wrap points, which can be useful with irregular shapes.
Tip You can place the graphic in your document either before or after you add the text, but it may be easier to position the graphic with a text wrap after all of the text is in the document.

Tangential the the thread on accepting rebirth, I wonder about belief in other aspects of the Pali Canon.
I understand that rejecting rebirth is outright contrary to the Pali Canon because it's inconsistent with the fundamental principles. That much is evident.
But what about belief in the existence of other aspects such as devas and supernatural powers (e.g. clairaudience, etc.), Would an agnostic or outright skeptical attitude toward these elements be contrary to Buddhist practice or a hindrance to development? My guess is not necessarily since they are not essential to the Eightfold Path, that they are not essential to the causes and cessation of suffering. But I'm not certain if this is the Theravadin view.
Can anyone say with greater certainty?

HENDERSON, Ky. (3/25/13) – South Middle School's after school program, Bulldog Boulevard, recently received the Lowe's Toolbox for Education grant in the amount of $2,345.00. The grant was received for a greenhouse/outdoor garden project.
The grant included materials to build a greenhouse, a concrete mixer to pour the foundation, and a tiller to break ground for a garden. Students will use the greenhouse to grow plants, make observations on plant growth, and experiment with different ratios of fertilizers to see which makes plants grow best. Students will plant two or three different types of beans or peas and then see which plant produces the greatest yield in the same soil conditions. They will develop the knowledge of when to plant various garden plants, study the life cycle of plants, move plants from the greenhouse to the garden, tend the garden, protect it from various insects and plant diseases, and finally, they'll harvest the vegetables from the garden.
The goal is for students to recognize the importance of raising fresh vegetables that have high nutritional values than those on the grocery store shelves. "We also wanted students to explore jobs that are available in the gardening/farming market such as farmer, agricultural agent, fertilizer agent, seed supplier and many more," said Ed Fruehwald, teacher and program sponsor at South Middle School.

For Immediate Release: Jan. 12, 2005
Revenue Department Granting Tax Relief in Graniteville
South Carolina Department of Revenue officials said today they will grant tax relief to Graniteville taxpayers affected by the recent chlorine leak.
Graniteville business owners whose operations were affected by the leak, or those taxpayers who have their tax returns prepared by tax professionals whose tax services were interrupted by the leak, will have more time to file their tax returns. The amount of extra time to be granted for filing returns will be determined on a case-by-case basis after the agency reviews each taxpayer's situation.
The revenue department will also temporarily suspend enforced collections of any affected taxpayer, will waive any tax penalties due as a result of deadline extensions or suspension of collection activities against them, and will provide at no charge to the taxpayer copies of any tax returns destroyed by the chemical leak.
Other tax relief may be available to affected taxpayers and that also will be determined after the department reviews the taxpayer's individual circumstances.
Those seeking relief should contact the Department of Revenue at (803) 898-5709.

The Cosmetics Cop Team strongly suspects that the interest in this product line from Finland is its prestige packaging, coupled with a relatively attractive price point. This is an eye-catching brand that really stands out on drugstore shelves; however, these products aren't really all that inexpensive, especially in comparison to products from Olay, Neutrogena, or RoC. In the United States, you'll find Lumene products at most CVS drugstores as well as at Ulta, Target, and Walgreens. Although the Cosmetics Cop Team loves to find and recommend inspired skin-care and makeup products at reasonable prices, this line isn't one of them.
Two major shortcomings are: (1), the jar packaging, which means any state-of-the-art ingredients in those products won't remain stable once the jar is opened because they deteriorate in the presence of air, and (2), most of Lumene's formulas contain only a dusting of the superstar ingredients they brag about. Vitamin C, ceramides, antioxidants, peptides, and the like are all essential, brilliant ingredients for skin, but when only minute amounts are included, your skin isn't getting much of the good stuff.
What it comes down to is this: Shopping Lumene shortchanges your skin, leaving it needing, and deserving, far better. A bargain isn't a bargain if it isn't the best possible care for your skin. What good is saving money on skin care if your skin is left wanting and, in fact, needing more?
Aside from the jar packaging and the paltry amount of important skin-care ingredients, there are other limitations, adding to this line's woes. If you have acne, skin discolorations, or uneven skin tone, you need to look elsewhere.
From a marketing point of view, Lumene capitalizes on the erroneous notion that age is a skin type, so they group their products according to decades. Complete nonsense! Age is not a skin type, nor is race, height, weight, or ethnic background. Regardless of your age, if you have acne, rosacea, dry skin, oily skin, sun damage, or blackheads, the same ingredients that work for someone in their 30s will work for someone in their 40s, 50s, or 60s. There isn't a single piece of research showing that any specific ingredients or formulations are better for skin depending on your age.
Like a vast number of cosmetics companies, Lumene leads you to believe their products are all natural and loaded with beneficial plant extracts, in this case, from the remote wilderness of Finland. Nothing could be further from the truth. These products are loaded with synthetic ingredients. That doesn't make them inherently bad, it just makes the marketing claims obnoxious and misleading.
For those intent on exploring what this Finnish line has to offer, despite the fact there isn't much here worth your attention, your best bet is to stick with the products for sensitive skin, which are truly fragrance-free, and the cleansers. Oh, and if you want to find out if the cult classic status of Lumene's Blueberry Curl mascara is deserved, look no further: It most certainly is!
One more comment: Many Lumene products contain an extract or oil from the Arctic cloudberry plant. Although there is research proving this plant has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, it is far from the only one, and isn't even close to being the best for skin. The fact that Lumene chooses to highlight this plant is about marketing nonsense, because stories sell better than reality. Whether it is from the Amazon, the Swiss Alps, or the Himalayas, geographic location is not what makes a plant extract of any kind superior for skin.

April Fulton
April Fulton is the blog host of The Salt, NPR's Food Blog. As an editor on NPR's Science Desk, she edits and prepares radio and web reports on food topics ranging from raw milk policy to growing African crops.
Fulton, who joined NPR in 2009 as a health editor, worked with NPR's Health Policy Correspondent Julie Rovner and All Things Considered Senior Host Robert Siegel in preparation for their White House meeting with President Barack Obama just before the health care legislation passed in March 2010. In 2009, she helped launch the Shots health blog, just as the H1N1 flu virus pandemic was making headlines. Also that year, Fulton was part of the team developing content for the newly redesigned NPR.org website, which won a George Foster Peabody Award in 2009.
Before coming to NPR, Fulton spent five years as a freelance food writer. Her work has appeared in The Washington Post, Capitol File Magazine, US Airways Magazine and on NPR.org.
As a legislative assistant for U.S. Senator Richard Durbin from 2004-2005, Fulton took a brief break from journalism to develop food safety legislation.
Covering health care, labor and transportation policy for National Journal, Fulton worked first as a reporter than as an editor from 2000-2004. During that time, she broke a story on a costly trip made by some Congressional staffers, who oversaw pharmaceutical companies, and paid for by a drug company.
Prior to National Journal, Fulton worked her way up from reporter to editor in chief for a Washington, D.C.-based newsletter covering the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
In 2010, Fulton was selected as a Knight Foundation Fellow and attended MIT's Medical Evidence Boot Camp. She earned a bachelor's degree in journalism with a minor in political science from the University of Rhode Island.
