Jaundice occurs when excess bilirubin builds up in the blood. Bilirubin is a yellow-brown colored substance in bile. Bile is a liquid that carries waste products and bilirubin away from the liver. It also helps break down fats in the small intestine. It is formed during the body's normal process of breaking down red blood cells.
There are several reasons why too much bilirubin can build up in the blood. They include:

Factors that may increase your chances of getting jaundice are similar to risk factors for liver and gallbladder disorders. They may include:
Jaundice may indicate another condition or disease. In addition to jaundice, you may experience other symptoms. Symptoms may include:
Your doctor will ask you questions about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. In order to make a diagnosis on what is causing jaundice, your doctor may recommend tests. Tests may include:
In most other types of jaundice, the specific condition causing it must be treated. There are many treatments that may be used for liver and gallbladder problems depending on the exact condition. They include:
Mild jaundice in newborns is common and usually clears without treatment. If bilirubin levels rise above a certain level, the baby may receive phototherapy , which is treatment with a special ultraviolet light. In Gilbert syndrome, jaundice tends to clear without treatment.
If you are diagnosed with jaundice, follow your doctor's instructions .
Prevention depends on the disorder causing jaundice. You may not be able to prevent some of the disorders. However, you can take the steps below to decrease your chance of developing liver disease:

Recruiting Papers Please
By EARL COX
Sports Columnist
The Voice-Tribune
What a week!
I just wish we could know all of the interesting stories.
The best concerned a football prospect who had chosen his college. He had completed all of the recruiting papers.
Then his mother went to his high school and asked to see his recruiting papers. She did more than just look at them. She walked out with them! Why? Because she didn't want him to go to the college he had signed up for. I just wish I could tell you how that ended. But remember this: It never hurts to have a mother on your side.
I have heard all kinds of recruiting stories.
Valuable dog
Once there was a college football coach who visited the father of a great recruit. The father asked, "See that old hound by the fireplace? How much would you give me for him?"
Well, said the recruiter, "I'm not sure."
Said the father, "Well, Coach Jones from State U. offered me $5,000 for him."
I wish I knew how that turned out.
Sweetheart Helped UK
When Kentucky's greatest athlete, Wallace "Wah Wah" Jones of Harlan, was being recruited, the University of Tennessee entertained him. When he left Knoxville in 1945, he drove a new car.
Back in Kentucky, he called his sweetheart in Middlesboro, Edna Ball, and told her that he was going to the University of Tennessee.
"That's fine," said Edna, but I am going to the University of Kentucky."
That settled that. Wah's best buddy, Humzey Yessin, drove the car back to UT.
Cars often are involved. A new college coach was informed by a recruit that he would have to return a car to a sugar daddy.
"Why?" the new coach asked. "Keep the car. Do you think the other college is going to let anyone know that they gave you a car?"
Ole Miss landed the No. 1 prospect this year. That was the biggest surprise of the entire recruiting season. Do you know why? Because his big brother is a player at the Oxford, Miss., school. Obviously he has been treated just fine.

Earl, I'm glad to see you are still at it. I'm also glad to see that you still haven't cleaned off your desk. That gives me a point of reference when I get hassled about mine.

I am bad with names but the lady who helped me was very accommodating. I reserved a 10x10 over the phone a few days prior with a man. Once we saw the 10x10 and got home to start loading up to take a trip in, we realized that it wasn't going to be big enough. We loaded anyway, drove to the facility, and the lady was able to quickly help us find a larger unit. I was surprised on how fast that process took. It was nice as we were on a tight time line that day. Kudos on the service level.Samantha from Raleigh, NC

Warn Your Elders!! AARP Is A Parasite.
Posted by
TEXAS -- I have not seen a single aspect of this company that would lead me to believe them to be credulous in any way.
* It took a full 10 hrs over a 2 day period, just to enroll.
* I repeatedly experienced misinformation from the 12 reps that were "helping" me. Ask 3 different reps the same question, and see what happens.
* I've been placed on very long holds, only to be disconnected. I've been "disconnected" over a half dozen times. Sometimes while on hold, sometimes when the representative was obviously stalling.
* The automated phone system seems to be designed to promote frustration, in hopes you'll give up.
* I've had 2 reps supposedly email me a list of local providers. One took 60 seconds to put it together. The 2nd put me on 3 long holds over a 15 minute period. I've received nothing. (Not even in the "spam" folder)
* Beyond the dropped calls, I've been redirected to reps in other departments that don't even handle the issue in question, then disconnected while being transferred back.
* Trying to find some things on their website is similar to yearning for the Holy Grail.
* Hartford Insurance quoted me over double what I currently pay.
* Delta Dental only paid half of what their agreement states.
* Advertised "benefit" is "15% or greater" discount from Hewlett Packard. Actual discount offered was about 1.5%
*** Do not be fooled. This is organized crime. I firmly believe that they intentionally use aspects of old age against their clients. If you have another option, chances are incredibly high that the other is the lesser evil. AARP and the affiliates that I have dealt with have left me with the impression that they are all unscrupulous, unethical vultures. If you let your family members enroll with these companies, they will most definitely suffer in a variety of ways. But be certain there is another valid option, because if you drop them, you can't re-enroll for 12 months. Their online rating is one star out of five, and I can personally guarantee that this is only because "zero stars" is not an option. I personally experienced all of the above in the first 8 weeks of membership.

Dental insurance is usually NOT a good deal, no matter who sells it. I agree about AARP---they are in the business to just sell products, mostly insurance and do not represent old people very well at all. A much better senior organisation is AMAC and can be found at:

The Hartford - Dishonest Thieves
Posted by
LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY -- I sent this letter to The Hartford in response to their 'new lower rates' promo they sent me:
"The Hartford May 10, 2011
To Whom It May Concern:
I recently received the enclosed 'Lower Rate Notice' from you. The only 'lower rate' I am interested in was the one I had with you before you cancelled my policy. In January 2011, having almost no income, I did not have the full amount for the payment requested on the statement you sent me that was 3 times what I normally paid (under the guise of being an annual deposit) and I paid only my regular monthly amount. You promptly sent that back to me with a notification that you cancelled my policy. This happened after I had requested copies of all my many years of policy and payment history because your billing amounts are irregular and I could never get the amounts you wanted to balance with what I paid and what you said I owed. No matter what I thought I had paid in advance I was never paid in advance according to you and frequently accrued late fees because you said I still owed you money. After being a customer for many years I felt it was unnecessary for you to be charging me an annual deposit like any new client. That shows your loyalty is only to the almighty dollar and not your customers. After cancelling me and while I was searching for new insurance, you were then more than happy to provide me a quote with a 'new rate' that was almost $100 more per month.
You are rip off artists and I want to get the word out. I plan on doing that via the internet by explaining just what you did in order to inflate my premium and then cancel it. And in order to renew it I would be paying 1 ½ times what I had been. THAT is no discount.
I have moved on and gotten insurance elsewhere, you are thieves, do not contact me any further. I think AARP needs to know how you do business as well.
That about says it...don't trust them..it sounds good but they jerk you around and instanteously cancel your policy when you start asking questions...I have had car insurance for 41 years and have NEVER been cancelled until now.

azRider on 05/14/2011:
I'm confused. are you saying you sent them payments of what you think they should be charging and your upset they cancelled you because your payments are late? so they say you own $218 but you fill it should be the old payment of say $120 so that is what you sent them? and your upset when they say you did not pay and cancel? I think your a little off on this thinking. just because your with a company for years does not mean you can decide what the payment for a service would be. maybe they cancelled you because you refused to pay what you owned by contract? I'm with AARP Hartford and each renewal I get a letter that shows what the increase or proposed coverage and payment will be at renewal time. then they always start the new period with a starting deposit and payment plan. unless I pay cash for the full amount. which I do now, I find payments a pain in the a$$. so if your premise is you should pay what you want and expect them to take it, then I disagree with it. I think you should have read the renewal documents and then moved to a different plan with someone else, rather than try to force them to accept your payment.
Know your Insurance on 05/23/2013:
azrider, you must work for an insurance company. Why don't you tell them how insurers do the same thing this customer was allegedly doing. Have a claim with most insurers and they try to dictate the cost of the claim. Reality is, this is not indemnity. Indemnification is to make the person damaged whole, not to pay what they think the claim should cost. Insurance estimates, weather a home claim, auto claim,or any other claim, are for internal purposes only, not payment in full. The determination of a claim is determined by the actual cost of damages or loss. Don't be fooled by Are Way insurance.
Arthur Murphy on 07/14/2013:
The Hartford car insurance through AARP was higher than other companies and when I switched companies they say I owe them money. Could not lodge a complaint on the AARP site?

Victim of AARP The Hartford
Posted by
PENNSYLVANIA -- Attempting to receive a less expensive Auto Insurance policy, I decided to go with what was advertised as The AARP Auto Insurance program.
What arrived was a company called The Hartford? After going through the usual questions and required information over the telephone. I sent in my 6 month advance payment.
What arrived next, was a complicated 18 plus page form to fill out and sign. Page after page of statements and complicated legalese, with my signature in more than several places.
After completing what I though was the required info. I was informed by a phone call, that I had not signed the forms. A second set was sent to me, and I went through the lengthy and complicated process all over again. This time with The Hartford's agent over the telephone...
three weeks passed when, I received a notice from the State of Pennsylvania, stating that It had been reported to them that my auto policy had been canceled. New forms and legalese from the state to sign, that I had not driven my vehicles while the policy and been canceled.
The Hartford had notified the state of the cancellation, thus causing my insurance rate to go up. Essentially the Hartford told me that some part of the form had not been signed, and there was nothing I could do about it.
They left me scrambling for a new policy, at thanks to the Hartford, now at a a higher rate too.
It cost me 265.00 to find a new auto insurance policy and pronto.
The additional auto insurance forms are going to be real trouble in the state of Pennsylvania and The Hartford is going to screw you if make some understandable mistake on these things. Like miss a signature somewhere on these lengthy and confusing things!
We do not live in a Nazi Police State where insurance companies like the Hartford have the right to report unsigned documents to the authorities and compile a dossier on you, the irrelevant discarded customer.
My advice is to refrain from using the AARP and The HARTFORD .
Pennsylvania is also going to have a huge quagmire of problems over these silly and what should be unnecessary forms.

Unfortunately, there's even more to come -- good luck in getting off their harassment mailing lists.
I wasn't even old enough to join when I started getting crap from them. Join Now! Buy This! Give Us Money!!! Give Us Money!!! Give Us Money!!! Give Us Money!!!
After being repeatedly assured by numerous so-called service representatives that I would be taken off their mailing lists, I was still getting trash from them.
I finally sent a certified letter to their headquarters, outlining the future charges they would be assessed for continuing to dump trash in my mailbox.
Haven't heard from them since.
ok4now on 06/25/2009:
Sorry to hear about your bad experience with Hartford. They put you in a very bad position. I was insured with them for 3 years. During this time they offered good service and low premiums. When my policy came up for renewal 6 months ago they whacked me with a $550 rate increase. No tickets or accidents. Their explanation was an across the board increase for everyone. I'm sure they lost a lot of business including me. I switched to Amica and got an even better rate. You have to shop around.

Can a person really sue for receiving email and mail advertisements, and if so, can the defendant actually lose their eyesight?
PepperElf on 02/25/2011:
well you can sue...
but whether or not you'd actually WIN something is the real question... assuming the judge doesn't throw it out of court first.
trmn8r on 02/25/2011:
You got me Pepper. What I meant was, can a company really be held liable for sending solicitations, etc.
PepperElf on 02/25/2011:
I doubt it.. most of the flier are bulk mail, meaning they're not specifically addressed to anyone.
instead of going straight to a lawyer, perhaps the OP should ask the Postmaster what to do. Though the answer might be the same thing I"m thinking
1) Throw it out
2) Rip it into long strips, roll them up and tie some string around them and dip them in melted wax*
* Girl Scout method for making "Fire starters". They're great for camping cos they're water proof. Just build your kindling up around them and light the wick, and let it burn.
Thus, turning a hated flier into something fun. Plus you get the added bonus of telling yourself that your fire-starters are costing them money.

AARP is only an advertising front - and a poor one at that
Posted by
I have seen many complaints on the site about AARP and their less than pro-elderly tactics. More as acting as a front for other advertisers. Well, this morning I had an experience that reduced their credibility even further. Zero, in my book.
There is an ad on TV (endorsed by AARP) for supplemental Medicare health insurance. Next year my wife and I will begin getting Medicare. The logical thing to do get as much information as possible BEFORE you are faced with the commitments. Not the way the people that use the AARP tag to push their products see it.
I called the advertised number (1-800-495-9576) for the United Health Care Medicare supplement information. The girl asked several innocuous questions. One of which was my date of birth. No big deal. I am sure there are many people born on my birth date. Then asked if I was currently on Medicare. I told no, not until next year. Here is the killer: "We cannot give you this information unless you are currently on Medicare."
This was only supposed to be a request for a booklet of information. But their position was obviously to line you up with spending money by the end of the phone call.
I then called AARP. They claimed no connection with what the ad claimed. That is to supply you with information. Bear in mind the AARP logo is the largest print on the booklet you see on the TV ad. No matter. AARP is concerned only with the kickback. They are totally disinterested on whether these companies provide any service for their members.
With that I advised the AARP representative that since they provided no useful assistance, service and/or information when our membership expired it would not be renewed. Not that they care in the least. But I felt better.

Good review, Tnchuck. I'm not renewing with AARP, either. Their logo is for sale to the highest bidder and they take no responsibility for the company's quality (or lack of it).

Please, please, please...Do NOT choose AARP Medicare Complete Secure Horizons
Posted by
FENTON, MO -- I work in an internal medicine office with 2 physicians. This plan is an absolute nightmare. Originally, we did not accept the HMO plan. As of 01/09, we started to accept it. BIG mistake! I do coding/billing and am also the referral coordinator. Everything that the patient has to do outside of their internist's office, whether it be see a specialist or having surgery, has to be called in by your internal medicine physician. It's what is known as a "gatekeeper plan". On numerous occasions, I have a specialist office call and say, Patient X is going to have surgery tomorrow and I need it authorized. I tried to do it, but they said that the PCP has to call and get it authorized. Are you kidding me? Such a HUGE hassle. They have to call and give us the CPT and ICD-9 codes that they are using. If Secure Horizons has a question like, have they had a such and such test done, I most likely don't have that information. I have to hang up with them, call the specialist back and see, then call Secure Horizons to let them know. Stick with plain Medicare and get a secondary insurance such as Anthem or straight UHC. You will benefit so much more in the long run.
I just get so sick and tired of our elderly patients getting manipulated by the Medicare replacement plans. It all sounds great initially, but when it comes down to it, they are full of...well you get the gist.

It always sounded to "pat" to be real... I get offers of this EVERY week and will not get involved!

Thanks for the very helpful review. I always wondered the ins and outs of these plans. Too frequently they make it very difficult for the patient to receive the care that they need. It's great that folks like you shoulder the burden for them and make it seemingly seamless behind the scenes (all doctor's offices don't do this).
(Hope my spelling was up to par)
ginahip1 on 03/16/2011:
You're very welcome "bluediamond98". I try to do everything I can to empathize with our patients. Through research and experience, I have learned the pros and cons of a variety of insurance companies. I too have to see a doctor from time to time, so I know how frustrating insurance companies can be on both sides of the fence.
Yes, your spelling was up to par. The only reason I mentioned correct spelling and grammar regarding the other commenters is because I cannot stand when people make ignorant comments, when they obviously didn't coprehend my post. On top of it, they can't even spell... There's even a "Check spelling" link above the comment box. Sheesh!

Medicare Insurance
Posted by
GILBERT, ARIZONA -- Does AARP know the service offered by SecureHorizons/MedicareComplete is not what they claim to be? I doubt it. I changed my provider last November and have had NOTHING but problems since the very beginning. They enrolled me in the wrong plan. Insisted my primary care physician would not see me as he was not taking new patients. Made no difference to them that I was an established patient. After MANY phone calls and speaking to many different Customer Service people (who all promised) they would take care of the problem I still kept getting insurance cards with wrong PC name. It took several more calls to get the problem taken care of. I then went to a specialist this AM who is listed in my plan book, and has been my doctor for over a year, to only find out they do not take my insurance and never have. I need this physicians service as I am a recovering cancer patient. He did see me today and only charged me what my co-payment would have been. However, he will not see me again unless I get the insurance problem taken care of.
Since I cannot not change Medicare provider until next November I can only pray my cancer stays in remission until I can change insurance carriers. I have NEVER had so many problems with insurance in all my life. I would not recommend MedicareComplete/SecureHorizons to my worst enemy.

Your experience with Secure Horizons is horrible. They were purchased by United Health several years ago. Call the customer service number again. Ask for a supervisor and demand that they resolve the issues you are having. Tell them that if your issues are not resolved to your satisfaction that you will contact CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services), which is the government agency that over sees all Medicare plans. Their "contact us" website is http://www.cms.hhs.gov/ContactCMS/
The phone numbers are: Medicare Service Center: 800-MEDICARE (800-633-4227)
Medicare Service Center TTY: 877-486-2048
If United Health/Secure Horizons doesn't do the right thing, follow through with a complaint to CMS. They do NOT want a CMS complaint filed against them. I am sorry you are having so much trouble. Good luck to you.

Starting in January 2014 I started receiving mail from AARP for a James M. I sent the mail back to AARP marked return to sender as James M, does not live at this address. again in Feb. I received more of James M. what I now call junk mail from AARP again which I again marked return to sender as James M. does not live at my address. This continues to this day even tho I have called AARP 2 times and returned countless pieces of their junk mail. Yesterday I got more of their junk mail for James M. and this time in addition to writing return to sender all over the envelope I also noted for the postal authorities to please investigate this matter as I now consider this harassment on AARP's part and fraud due to James M, paying for but not getting his AARP. stuff through the U S Mail.When I called yesterday they ( AARP ) stated that they noted the file April 17th, as undeliverable, a lot of good that does me! The reason I an upset about this is I am disabled and some days it is very hard to walk to the mail box just to find James M's AARP junk Mail there.I would strongly advise anyone to avoid AARP as they don't care.

AARP Hartford Insurance - Ripoff
Posted by
WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA -- As a member of AARP, I got an offer from Hartford Insurance to save more than $300 per year on car insurance. I requested a quote and as promised it was more than $300 less than my current company for the same coverage.
My current agent told me if I could get that price I should take it. So, I switched to Hartford. One year later when I got my renewal bill the price went up by more than $300. When I called Hartford for an explanation I was told that "Hartford had re-evaluated their Illinois rates". I have no tickets or accidents. Fortunately for me, I was able to go back to my old company. Now once again, Hartford is sending me offers to save $300 per year. I wonder if Hartford pays AARP for their endorsement? At least in my case any endorsements I get from AARP are suspect at best.

PORT SAINT LUCIE, FLORIDA -- Part of your monthly United Healthcare insurance payment goes to AARP directly (they don't tell you how much). I paid $130 monthly for 6 months and they hardly paid anything out.. . . still had deductibles and had to pay portion. . What they tell you in order to get you to sign up and what is reality . . .it is a scam. Better off being with an HMO or just on Medicare. I paid $46 for RX through them and had high payouts and was constantly told by RX Store that I must be in the "black out " period or something of that nature. . . it's a joke. The only ones profiting from these plans are the insurance companies. I opted out and I am trying Humana HMO plan. . ..no monthly payments and I have getting better RX than with AARP and no deductibles to primary. . . so far so good.

AARP Selling Email Address to Other Companies
Posted by
SANTA ROSA, CALIFORNIA -- AARP has allowed one of their associate companies in California to sell my private/personal email address to other companies for marketing purposes WITHOUT MY PERMISSION or INFORMING ME THAT THEY HAVE ALLOWED THIS TO HAPPEN.
The associate company is the AARP Driver Safety Course which deals with this course in California.
Since I signed up for this course in May 2013 I have been receiving a huge amount of SPAM advertising!! I have NEVER had this happen before with ANY company.The worst part they DO NOTHING to address the issue. I recently received a false apology letter from the Washington DC office without a name or personal contact information!
This is how much RESPECT AARP gives to their subscribers!!!
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH AARP! And especially with their associate companies who offer ANT SERVICE be it Driver Safety Courses OR ANYTHING!!!

Why are you surprised that AARP would do something like that? They are in business to make money any way they can, usually by selling insurance. They are a big proponent of the new government health care scam and do little to help seniors. Best to stay away from them. There are many things you can due to stop this junk mail. Check out your email service and find out if you can label them "spam", "junk" block the address, etc. Good luck, but pass the word around about AARP doing this to you.
CU on 09/25/2013:
Nikal is spot on. AARP is a horrible, bottom feeding outfit that markets itself as a proponent for seniors. In reality they are a marekting/insurance outfit, and anyone who gives them their personal information is nuts.
cmthru on 09/25/2013:
Ages ago I was an AARP member. While I found their magazine a bit useful I was disappointed to find out months later that they have political views contrary to my own. They sold my name, address, telephone number and email to lots of merchandisers even after I requested them not to do so. Their discount programs were rather useless. Could get better discounts elsewhere.

RICHMOND, Va. - Four Powerball tickets sold in Virginia are $1 million winners.
The Virginia Lottery says each ticket matched the first five numbers but missed the Powerball in Wednesday night's drawing. They were sold in Arlington, Daleville, Harrisonburg and Richmond.
Fifteen tickets sold in Virginia each won $10,000.
Two tickets sold in Arizona and Missouri matched all six numbers to win the record $587.5 million jackpot.
The numbers drawn for Wednesday night are 5, 16, 22, 23, 29. The Powerball is 6.
Powerball sales surged in Virginia during the run-up to Wednesday's drawing. Lottery officials say the state reaped about $13.3 million in revenue from sales that began after the Oct. 3 drawing.
The Baltimore Sun reports that lotto-players bought Powerball tickets at an average of 569,000 per hour Wednesday as the jackpot climbed to more than $587 million. Total one-day Powerball sales on Wednesday reached $9.45 million.
An Edgewood woman won a $2 million prize, the Maryland Lottery said.

NikaNice Concept, But Too BigI definitely needed one of these for my makeup counter, which is overflowing with goodness! I like the concept of it, being able to neatly put away my makeup into the provided slots, but was not prepared for how big the thing is. It doesn't fit into the standard size drawer, and if put on the table, took up the entire counter. I would have loved to slot everything on the side, but it was just too big and clunky. So, nice concept, but not a big fan.2 out of 2 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

Greetings all,
I wanted to start a thread on something that is rarely discussed on Dhamma Wheel. And I want to include it here in 'General Theravada discussion' to accommododate those who may not engage on the level of meditation, but some other aspect of theory or practice that they may wish to contribute.
Do you think about the 37 requisites of enlightenment (Bodhipakkiya Dhamma) and how do you cultivate the Bodhipakkiya Dhammas in your life?
37 Bodhipakkiya Dhamma
- 4 Satipatthana (foundations of mindfulness)
- 4 Sammapadhana (right efforts)
- 4 Iddhipada (bases of success)
- 4 Indriya (controlling factors)
- 5 bala (mental powers)
- 7 Bojjhanga (enlightenment factors)
- 8 Magganga (path factors)
The bodhipakkhiya-dhammas are so called because they form part
(pakkhiya) of enlightenment or awakening (bodhi) which here refers to
the knowledge of the holy paths (magga-ñāṇa). They are dhammas
(mental phenomena) with the function of being proximate causes
(padaṭṭhāna), requisite ingredients (sambhāra) and bases, or sufficient
conditions (upanissaya), of path knowledge (magga-ñāṇa).
For those who are interested, an electronic copy of the wheel publication of Ledi Sayadaw's Bodhipakkiya Dipani is here:
I look forward to your contributions.

Local Jobs Through Local Banking
Video courtesy of Free Speech TV
Local businesses have created over two thirds of new jobs in recent years. But big-business banks won't lend to them; locally owned community banks provide the majority of small business loans.
Free Speech TV talks to Stacy Mitchell about the advantages of community banks and how they can aid economic recovery.
Stacy Mitchell is a senior researcher with the New Rules Project, a program of the Institute for Local Self-Reliance that challenges the wisdom of economic consolidation and works to advance policies that build strong local economies. She wrote "How State Banks Bring the Money Home" in YES! Magazine's latest issue, New Livelihoods.

After years of trying to redevelop the site into social housing, the Oakland Housing Authority (OHA) finally got a boost from HUD and brought on David Baker to re-envision the site. The new 7.5 acre neighborhood includes multiple housing types surrounded by green pathways, pocket parks, and open spaces. A defunct pasta factory on the north end of the site was retained and transformed into supportive apartments and a medical clinic. A three-story apartment building features an undulating green roof, and 22 townhouses built by Habitat for Humanity line the streets and serve as single family homes.
All of the residences enjoy a wide range of green strategies like solar power for on-site generation of electricity and hot water, hydronic heating, environmentally friendly and sustainable materials, energy efficient appliances and low flow fixtures. Most of the landscaping is drought tolerant and the vegetated roofs help infiltrate storm water. Public transit is within a 1/4 mile walk of the neighborhood and also close to jobs and schools. The new housing development is also expected to improve the local economy and add new retail and commercial spaces in the area.

Combed Cotton Legging with Stirrups
The same amazing fit and softness of Foot Traffic's cotton tights & leggings, but with stirrups to maintain a sleek look, in or out of cute boots.
The label says 90-160 lbs, but real-life testing has had great results for folks right up to and over 6' and/or 200 lbs.
Testing found the underwear elastic style waistband stretched up to 37 inches, but more sensitive waists may not like it stretched over 35 inches. The hips had lovely stretch up to 46 inches, with about 26 inches of stretch in the thigh.
Additional Info: Expertly crafted using the finest quality combed cotton, these tights are one-of-a-kind for their stylish design, comfy fit, and lasting durability. Our tightly woven, fine-spun fabric has a jersey-like softness. No need to worry about runs or snags that often appear in ordinary tights. Our cotton tights are a balanced mixture of cotton and spandex, so they are sleek but strong. Sporting a discreet elastic waistband and minimal seaming, these disappear under the most fitted dresses or skirts.
Made in Taiwan, Foot Traffic has worked with the same mill for over 20 years and assures us they meet all benchmarks of positive and conscientious standards.
PLEASE NOTE: Please be aware that leggings, tights, and other products considered intimate wear are non-returnable once removed from their original packaging.
Fiber Content: 60% combed cotton, 35% nylon, 5% spandex. Machine washable in cool water, tumble dry low.
Label: Foot Traffic
Is the inseam appropriate for tall persons?
If this doesn't FIT (one size) can I return w/ free shipping?
I have extremely flat feet, so when I have to dance with shoes with little support my feet tend to hurt. Do the stirrups add support in any way? I need the grip that you get with bare feet but I really don't want my feet to hurt!
I have never had a better experience with online shopping than I have with your company. I placed my second order about 45 minutes ago, and it's already been shipped. You guys are amazing. Thank you for existing.
~ Shana M.

so did i just witness a flop so anderson could go fight Roy Jones or did he just get caught being fancy?
so did i just witness a flop so anderson could go fight Roy Jones or did he just get caught being fancy?
"I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road."
- Stephen Hawking
I really think he was bored of playing with his food at MW and as long as he could goof around Ali-style and get away with it (see Bonnar), he would keep cashing the checks until somebody beat him, but being THAT invincible doesn't sell tickets and honestly going forward, I bet Anderson has more interest NOW than ever before.
IMO, nobody genuinely serious fights that mindlessly cocky against that level of competition. GSP and Fedor lost fair and square, Anderson just threw the worst pick in MMA history, which is weird for someone soooooo good and didn't really look to be offensively seeking victory.
I wouldn't say dive exactly per se, I don't think he sought to lose, but he'd resigned himself to it and wasn't overtly looking to win. The alternative is that Anderson had diluted himself to such an enormously arrogant degree that he literally thought he wouldn't get caught ever.
Anderson didn't lose on a fluke or by domination or being simply outworked. He lost due to being fucking clownshoes and something is ultimately hinky about that.
My Weidman card shrine is looking like one of the better investments I have made lately
I really believe that people like Bill Murray or John Belushi are just as great and just as valid as Robert De Niro or Al Pacino. And I don't think you can say One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) is a better movie than Animal House (1978); they're different genres. I think they're both examples of great craftsmanship.
-Sam Rockwell
If Anderson doesn't sign for a rematch, it would be logical that the next shot goes to Belfort. I wonder if they'd have the fight in Brazil because of Vitor's TUE.
Weidman would sign up for it regardless, but still.

With every iteration of iOS, Apple tweaks its software a little, but for the most part, the default lineup of apps remains unchanged since launch. For a lot of us, these apps just aren't cutting it anymore. Here are the best app to replace them.
The design and function of many of Apple's apps is beginning to feel a bit stale, and many people are growing dissatisified with the experience as a whole. On top of that, many of the apps lock you into Apple's data ecosystem and iCloud. However, plenty of superior replacements exist for Apple's stock apps. From Maps to Notes, we've got you covered regardless of where you're looking for better options.
Application to avoid: Maps
Indictment: Apple's new Maps app has been getting its fair share of bad press lately for numerous mistakes ranging from poorly updated maps, to badly implemented search. Thankfully, you have a few really solid alternative choices.
Superior Alternative(s): Waze, MapQuest, Google Maps (in browser).
Notes: Replacing Apple's Maps app really depends on what you're looking for in a maps app. If turn-by-turn navigation is your thing, then Waze is the best of the free apps that provides it.
However, Waze isn't that great as a simple map. For that, we like Mapquest. Even though the ads in the app are rather annoying, it's a simple way to get a top-down view of an area you might already know so you can become more self-reliant in your city. If you'd rather just return to Google, the mobile version of Google Maps works just fine.
Application to avoid: Safari
Indictment: On its own, Safari is by no means a bad browser. However, to get its best feature, iCloud syncing, you have to use Safari on your Mac. Not everyone wants to do that. Safari also has it's fair share of usability issues, like the inability to quickly swap to private browsing, and a limited amount of tabs you can keep open at a time.
Superior Alternative(s): Chrome, Dolphin
Notes: Picking the perfect browser for your phone really depends on what you use on your computer. If you're a Chrome user on your desktop, then Chrome is the logical choice on your iPhone or iPad. It syncs up your history, bookmarks, autofill settings, and everything else across every single device.
If you'd like a browsing experience geared specifically to mobile, Dolphin is a gesture-based browser that offers a fun alternative way to browse the web.
Application to avoid: Camera
Indictment: Apple's default camera is pretty boring. You can't really tweak your photos, and you don't get standard options like a timer or burst mode. As a straightforward point-and-shoot camera it works fine, but if you want more precision you need to dig deeper.
Superior Alternative(s): Camera+, Camera Awesome.
Notes: Camera+ is easily the most full featured of the iPhone camera apps. Not only does it replicate everything the iPhone's default camera does, it also offers a ton of built-in photo editing tools, filters, and features. You can also lock the focus, set up timers, and shoot in a burst mode for action shots.
For another similar option, we like Camera Awesome, which offers many of the same features as Camera+, but also includes a number of guides to help you take better pictures. Both are great camera apps that supercharge everything great about the iPhone's camera. However, neither do HDR photography, so if HDR is your thing, you'll want to keep the stock camera on hand.
Application to avoid: Calendar
Indictment: Much like the Camera app, Calendar is pretty barebones in its functionality. It's not hard to use, but you can't customize the look of it to really suit your specific needs, and overall it's a bit hard to see what's really going on with your calendar.
Superior Alternative(s): Week Cal, Cue, Agenda Calendar.
Notes: You have a ton of options for calendar apps on the iPhone. For a full-featured replacement, we like Week Cal because it does pretty much everything you'd ever want in a calendar. However, for a completely different experience, Cue makes your calendar more of a social experience and works great for people with more social dates than work ones. For a minimalist experience, Agenda Calendar is a simple, but still useful alternative to Calendar.
Application to avoid: Mail
Indictment: Mail is made to work well with Apple addresses, but if you're using Gmail it doesn't have a lot of the very simple, but much needed capabilities built directly into Google's email app.
Superior Alternative(s): Sparrow
Notes: If you use Gmail for your email, then the Apple Mail app is pretty lackluster. Sparrow gives you control over your Gmail with access to labels, starred emails, and plenty more. The newest version of Mail in iOS 6 isn't bad if you're not using Gmail, but if you are, Sparrow's the right choice.
Application to avoid: Contacts
Indictment: On its own, the Contacts app isn't much more than a digital replacement for pen and paper. You get basic information, and the new Facebook integration helps keep that information up to date, but that's about it.
Superior Alternative(s): Smartr Contacts
Notes: Smartr turns all of your social contacts into an address book. Instead of simply seeing a phone number or email, you get recent Facebook or Twitter updates. This way, you can see a complete history of your contact with someone, which provides welcome context for those people you don't talk to often.
Application to avoid: Messages and Phone
Indictment: For the bulk of iPhone users, Messages and Phone are perfectly fine and works as well as Phone and SMS apps possibly could. However, not everyone wants to use their carrier's phone and messages services.
Superior Alternative(s): Google Voice, biteSMS.
Notes: If you don't have a lot of minutes through your cell phone carrier, then Google Voice provides a great replacement. With a few tweaks you can make the experience as seamless as the standard Phone and Messages apps.
For jailbreakers, we like biteSMS because it makes sending and receiving text messages a heck of a lot easier. It offers a lot of great features like Quick Reply, contact pictures, and tons more.
Application to avoid: iCloud
Indictment: Okay, so iCloud isn't an app as much as it's a service, but it's built into every Apple app (and many third-party apps) and comes stock with every device. iCloud is great if you happen to use all Apple products. However, the fact that it's difficult to pull documents from it, and you can't share easily them, makes it a pain to use for anything more than a simple backup.
Superior Alternative(s): Dropbox and Google.
Notes: We love Dropbox for storing all your files, and since most productivity apps (and plenty others) support Dropbox directly it's an obvious choice as an iCloud replacement for transferring files. Dropbox gives you direct access to every file you make across any device (including photos), and you're not restricted to Apple's apps. While iCloud is great to backup your phone, it's not good for much else.
As for keeping everything else in sync (like contacts, email, calendars, etc) you can set up everything to sync with your Google account easily. The benefit is that you have access to your data regardless of where you are (or if you're on a Mac). You can push that integration further with all your files with the Google Drive app as well.
Application to avoid: Find My iPhone
Indictment: As we learned with Mat Honan's hack earlier this year, the helpful features of the Find My iPhone app can easily be used for evil.
Superior Alternative(s): Prey.
Notes: Prey doesn't have all the same features of Find My iPhone, but that's also part of the appeal. It'll help you find your phone, but you won't be able to erase data, or change any settings. If the Mat Honan hack makes you a little wary to use Find My iPhone, then Prey is an excellent alternative.
Application to avoid: iBooks
Indictment: Out of all of Apple's iPhone apps, iBooks is the biggest offender of skeuomorphic design. It makes reading look like a book, and that just feels weird on a digital device.
Superior Alternative(s): Kindle.
Notes: The Kindle app is very simple, but it works really well for reading. You get all types of settings for brightness and fonts to make the reading experience better. Also, your bookmarks are synced across every device you can access the Kindle on. The nice part is you get text on a page and that's it. No weird formatting, and no book-style overlay.
Application to avoid: YouTube
Indictment: YouTube isn't packed into iOS 6, but if you're not upgrading to the new operating system, then you're stuck with a pretty ancient YouTube player that doesn't do much but play videos.
Superior Alternative(s): Jasmine, YouTube.
Notes: The official YouTube app is just fine for most people who want to watch a video now and again, but Jasmine really nails the experience. Jasmine is easy to use, and you can do everything you can on a desktop from within the app.
Application to avoid: Voice Memos
Indictment: Voice Memos is an incredibly simple app that can record audio, and then share that audio over Email, Messages, or in iTunes. While it works okay, its functionality stops there.
Superior Alternative(s): Audio Memos, Evernote.
Notes: Audio Memos is great because it syncs up across Dropbox, Evernote, and FTP. It also has handy features like a lock code, the ability to link recordings together, and more. If you're a hardcore Evernote user, the Evernote app also features recording options that link directly into your Evernote account.
Application to avoid: Notes
Indictment: Notes is about as simple as it gets. It's a writing pad that syncs with iCloud. Not everyone likes iCloud, and a lot of people aren't fans of the ruled notebook appearance of Notes.
Superior Alternative(s): Simplenote, Drafts,
Notes: Depending on what you use Notes for, you have a couple of solid options. We're huge fans of Simplenote because it makes syncing your notes across a variety of devices simple. It's also a nice, minimalist writing environment with just a blank page and a spot for text. If you want the ability to organize those notes into different services, Drafts speeds up the process and lets you quickly jot down a note, and then send it off to a variety of different services.
Application to avoid: Reminders
Indictment: Reminders is an exceptionally cool to-do list app that uses geo-fencing to remind you to do tasks when you're in a specific location. Unfortunately, they're not particularly easy to set up and the Reminders app doesn't come with a lot of options.
Superior Alternative(s): Checkmark
Notes: The nice thing about Checkmark is that it's dead simple to use. Three taps and you have a location-based reminder. You don't need to futz about in menus or anything else. Checkmark also works just like Apple's Reminders app. When you're in a certain area, you'll get a notification reminding you to do something. As a trigger to get things done, it works remarkably well and is much easier to use than Reminders.
Application to avoid: Music
Indictment: Until iOS 6, the Music app hadn't been updated or changed since it first launched. Now, it's a little slicker looking, but it's still the same experience.
Superior Alternative(s): Panamp, Groove 2, Track 8.
Notes: Depending on what you want from a music player, you have a few different choices. Panamp is a much faster experience than Music, and even though it hasn't been updated in a while it's still a slick, easy-to-use experience. Track 8 is another visual overhaul, but it's definitely a better option for anyone looking for a more visual player. If you're not happy with Music's boring playlist creation, then Groove 2 does it all for you automatically. Groove 2 creates smart, interesting playlists on the fly, and does a much better job of choosing music than Music.
Application to avoid: Podcasts
Indictment: When Apple released its Podcasts app, it pulled those podcasts out of the default Music app and stuffed them inside an ill-fitting, counter-intuitive container. The Podcasts app's best feature is the fact it auto-downloads new podcasts, but it's not very easy to use, has an overly-complicated menu, and isn't the prettiest thing to look at.
Superior Alternative(s): Downcast, Podcaster.
Notes: Downcast does everything the Podcasts app does, and it does it much better. You can also use it to create customized playlists, and turn your podcasts into your own radio station. If you'd prefer a podcast app that functions about the same as the old Music app, then Podcaster does the trick.
Application to avoid: Stocks
Indictment: Stocks is great for quickly glancing at a few stock prices, but it doesn't have enough options to fully track your portfolios, or take an in-depth look at the stocks you're investing in.
Superior Alternative(s): Stockwatch, Bloomberg
Notes: If you need more than just a glancing info at your stocks, then both Stockwatch and the Bloomberg app provide all types of customizable information. You can create your own tickers, track stocks, and plenty more. You don't get the option for the stock ticker in Notification Center, but at least you'll get more useful information.
Application to avoid: Weather
Indictment: The default Weather app is fine for quickly glancing at the current temperature and looking at the upcoming forecast, but its usefulness stops there. You can't get an in-depth look at incoming weather, nor can you see otherwise common calculations like wind, or "feels like."
Superior Alternative(s): The Weather Channel, AccuWeather, Weather Underground.
Notes: It's not hard to find a weather app in the App Store, but the big ones made by the Weather Channel, AccuWeather, and Weather Underground are the most feature-rich for most people. All of these apps give you access to full five day forecasts, up to the minute data, and pretty much everything else you'll ever need.
Application to avoid: Calculator
Indictment: For most people, the default Calculator app is perfect for a quick calculation, and the added scientific calculator in landscape mode fills in the gaps for most people. But if you need features like graphing, you'll have to head into the App Store.
Superior Alternative(s): QuickGraph.
Notes: You have a lot of options for graphing calculators in the App Store, but QuickGraph is on the coolest of the free options. On top of normal calculator functions, you also get 2D and 3D plotting, a library of equations, photo library saving, and plenty more.
Application to avoid: Videos
Indictment: The only real problem with the Videos app is that its playback is limited to just a few different formats. If you download a lot of videos in a variety of formats, Videos simply doesn't do the trick.
Superior Alternative(s): GoodPlayer
Notes: GoodPlayer can handle a ton of different formats (way too many to list here). It's also a perfectly functional video player that does everything you'd expect, including subtitles, cropping, mirroring, and more. That said, the stock Videos app has access to decoders the other video apps don't and can often play in higher definition.
Obviously you don't need to go through and replace every stock Apple app on your homescreen, but if you're looking for more function out of your phone, you'll need to replace at least a few of them.

Mock draft 1.0: Johnny Manziel to Browns
Note: The 2014 NFL Draft order is not yet official. Selections Nos. 21-32 are determined by the results of the playoffs. A coin flip between the Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys will determine picks No. 16 and No. 17.
Pick No.1DESouth CarolinaBill O'Brien bypasses the chance to take a quarterback to pair Clowney with J.J. Watt to create a formidable frontline.
Pick No.2OTAuburnJake Long's injury prompts Jeff Fisher to secure a franchise tackle to protect Sam Bradford.
Pick No.3QBLouisvilleGeneral manager David Caldwell tabs Bridgewater to be the new face of the franchise.
Pick No.4QBTexas A&MJohnny Football would energize an organization desperate for a legitimate franchise quarterback.
Pick No.5QBCentral FloridaBortles is not a finished product, but the Raiders could view him as an upgrade over Terrelle Pryor and Matt McGloin.
Pick No.6OLBUCLABarr could give the Dirty Birds a pass-rushing presence that was absent in 2013 after the departure of John Abraham.
Pick No.7OTTexas A&MLovie Smith would like to find a pass rusher to solidify the defense, but Matthews would complete a physically imposing offensive line.
Pick No.8OLBBuffaloThe Vikings defense needs an infusion of youth and athleticism along the frontline. Mack fits the bill as a versatile linebacker capable of rushing the passer or dropping into coverage.
Pick No.9TENorth CarolinaGeneral manager Doug Whaley will look to add an explosive weapon in the middle of the field to help foster the growth of E.J. Manuel.
Pick No.10CBOklahoma St.he secondary has been the weakest link of the Lions defense for years. Gilbert will not only upgrade the back end, but he would become a star playing behind a ferocious frontline that creates persistent pressure on the passer.
Pick No.11FSAlabamaIt's time for the Titans to had a playmaker in the middle of the field. Clinton-Dix is capable of thumping runners in the hole, while also floating over the top to eliminate the deep ball.
Pick No.12OTMichiganGeneral manager Jerry Reese and coach Tom Coughlin will look to add a skilled big body to an offensive line desperate for a franchise player on the edge.
Pick No.13OLBOhio St.The Rams could add an explosive defender to a dominant frontline that features a host of young, athletic disruptors.
Pick No.14NTFlorida St.The lack of a dominant 3-technique rendered the Bears defense helpless against the run. Jernigan fills that void and gives the unit an energy player along the frontline.
Pick No.15CBMichigan St.As a former defensive back coach, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin recognizes the need to add a standout corner to an aging secondary.
Pick No.16DEMissouriJerry Jones has been known to gamble on a player with significant upside. Ealy is as talented as they come, but his production doesn't match his athleticism at this point.
Pick No.17WRClemsonA big-bodied receiver could be in play, and it would be hard for general manager Ozzie Newsome to bypass the top receiver in the draft at this point.
Pick No.18WRUSCSeveral receivers enjoyed better 2013 seasons, but the memory of Lee dominating the Pac-12 for two full seasons could prompt the Jets to pull the trigger on the explosive playmaker.
Pick No.19OTNotre DameThe Dolphins' offensive line struggled well before the Jonathan Martin incident, so identifying a solid offensive tackle is a top priority. Factor in Martin's ability to play inside or outside, he could be the ideal pick in Joe Philbin's mind.
Pick No.20TEWashingtonThe Cardinals need a legitimate threat in the middle of the field to take the passing game to the next level. Seferian-Jenkins is a big-bodied pass catcher in the mold of Rob Gronkowski.
Pick No.21NTNotre DameA safety could be in play at this pick, but a stout anchor in the middle would alleviate the pressure on the linebackers in the running game.
Pick No.22FSLouisvilleThe Eagles' secondary hasn't been right since the departure of Brian Dawkins. Pryor is a firecracker with the skills to shine as a run or pass defender in the Eagles' scheme.
Pick No.23WRLSUBeckham's explosive running skills makes him a terrific fit in Andy Reid's version of the West Coast offense.
Pick No.24ILBAlabamaMarvin Lewis could look to add a three-down linebacker with versatile skills to young, athletic defense.
Pick No.25CBOhio St.Roby would bring much-needed athleticism and playmaking ability to a Chargers secondary that struggled in pass coverage in 2013.
Pick No.26WRTexas A&MWhy not add Johnny Football's favorite target to the mix to alleviate the pressure on Josh Gordon on the perimeter? Evans would not only alter coverage, but he would give Manziel a jump-ball specialist to lean on in the red zone.
Pick No.27CBTCURob Ryan dramatically improved the Saints defense with his exotic blitz schemes. Verrett would encourage more man coverage with his versatility and skill.
Pick No.28WROregon St.Cam Newton would love the opportunity to throw to a Steve Smith clone on the perimeter. Cooks might be the best "catch and run" playmaker in the draft.
Pick No.29DENotre DameBill Belichick could view Tuitt as a Richard Seymour clone capable of wreaking havoc in the Patriots' hybrid defensive scheme.
Pick No.30DTMinnesotaHageman is the kind of athlete capable of blossoming in the 49ers' program. Far from a finished product, Hageman has the size, speed and athleticism to be a dominant player on the interior.
Pick No.31CArkansasIf Peyton Manning returns for 2014, it is imperative to add a solid body on the interior to fortify the middle.
Pick No.32WRFlorida St.The Seahawks are lacking a big receiver on the outside capable of wreaking havoc in the red zone. Benjamin is a Calvin Johnson-like playmaker with the size, speed and athleticism to succeed on the NFL.

How Not to Buy a Project Vehicle: The tale of the 1975 International Pickup
by Zach Bowman (RSS feed) on Oct 28th, 2010 at 11:57AM
Fifty miles. After 16 grueling hours of nonstop cursing, bleeding, sweating and huffing gas fumes from the open jerry can in the floorboard, I'm less than an hour from home, laying on the oil-soaked asphalt of a truck pull off on the side of I-40 with antifreeze in my eyes. Both of them. Admittedly, this was not part of the plan. Confession time: I spend an inordinate amount of time in the autos section of Craigslist. That site is like Krispy Kreme doughnuts dipped in crack cocaine for any connoisseur of bad ideas, and I, loyal readers, am the world's foremost authority on poor... Read More

26th November 2009
The final evaluation for the Staffordshire Hoard is welcomed following agreement
Birmingham City Council and Stoke-on-Trent City Council and have welcomed the final valuation of the Staffordshire Hoard of £3.285 million.
The Treasure Valuation Committee, which met in London on Wednesday 25th November, recommended the value to the Secretary of State and this has now been agreed with Birmingham and Stoke City Councils as well as the finder and landowner of the Hoard.
Cabinet Member for Leisure Sport and Culture; Cllr Martin Mullaney said;
"It is great to have a real target to aim for. We are already talking to major potential funders to help us acquire the hoard and bring it home to it's rightful place in the ancient kingdom of Mercia.
"Over 42,000 people saw the treasure when it was displayed at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery in September, and thanks to the generosity of the public we have already raised almost £40,000 towards the fundraising total.
"This will take a huge, co-ordinated fundraising effort to raise, and we have already been working hard with partners and had early discussions with fundraising bodies. We want as many people as possible to support the campaign and help ensure we keep the treasure in the region."
The two authorities will jointly acquire the treasure, and have now been given four months to raise the funds. There will be a further public appeal to increase the £40,000 already raised through public donations, and an initial book on the find has also been produced with £1 donation from each sale going to the Hoard appeal.
Councillor Hazel Lyth, Stoke-on-Trent City Council cabinet member for enterprise and culture, said: "We welcome the valuation of the committee. But now the real work must begin. We are working jointly with Birmingham City Council to acquire the treasure, and only have a limited amount of time to raise the funds.
The fundraising campaign has already gained the support of Government Office West Midlands and the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council. The two authorities have already been involved in talks with funding bodies the Heritage Lottery Fund, Art Fund and National Heritage Memorial Fund.
A selection of around 80 of the most significant artefacts, including items that have yet to be seen in public, will go on display at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, Stoke-on-Trent from February 13.
Collection boxes for public donations are available in Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.and the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery for donations or online.
The book by Dr Kevin Leahy and Roger Bland from the British Museum is available from the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery shop, the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, Stoke on Trent and online at the British Museum Shop. It retails at £4.99 with a £1 from each sale going towards the Hoard appeal.
