Academic Help: Getting Started
If this is your first time using LexisNexis Academic, this article should help you quickly learn the basics. Click on the highlighted articles that will take you to other articles in the wiki if you need more information.
The URL for Academic is http://www.lexisnexis.com/hottopics/lnacademic. If you're on campus, your IP will be automatically authenticated. If you're off-campus, you may need to travel through your library's portal page. We're probably found in the "Databases" section. If you need help getting access, ask a librarian!
Main Search Box for Most Searches
The first thing you see when you get to LexisNexis Academic will probably be the main Academic Search box. You may not need to travel any further to any other search form, but that will depend on your research goals. The main page was designed to handle 80% of research needs.
If you find yourself in the 20% who needs a more defined search, we will get to that later in the article.
The search box on the main page of Academic searches four major group files at once, which gives users a broad mix of content in their results lists. The Main Page's Academic Search Box is a combined search of the following content sets:
- Newspapers (a group file of all newspapers, US and international, in LexisNexis Academic)
- Law Reviews (a group file of all Law Review titles)
- Company Profiles (a group file of all sources that provide Company Profiles)
- Federal and State Cases (a group file of all Federal and State Cases content)
Simply type in a term and your results list will bring back news, cases, law reviews, and company information relevant to your search. However, as previously mentioned, you might want some more precise.
Advanced Options for Precise Searching
There may be reasons that you need more options than what are offered on the Easy Search form. Here is a small list of reasons that you may need to use the Power Search form instead of the Easy Search form:
- You need to add index terms to narrow a large search into a smaller set of results.
For example, searching "Obama" and "Oil Spill" will bring back thousands of results. Using a controlled vocabulary and searching for major terms only will bring you back extremely relevant results.
- You need to search more than one specific source.
If you want to search The Washington Post and The New York Times together.
- You need to use a complex Boolean search string.
To find stories about therapy animals you might search on: (dog OR cat OR pet) w/s patient
- You need to narrow your search by date.
If you want results only from a specific date or a specific set of dates.
Any source in LexisNexis Academic can be searched on the Power Search form.
Check out our help text for the Power Search article if you want more information.
Specialized Forms for Content-Specific Searching
Although any source can be searched on the Power Search form, other specialized search forms on LexisNexis Academic may serve you better.
- You will always find specialized group files of sources on these forms. Legal search forms make it possible to search by specific jurisdiction. News search forms make it possible to search specific content types like all transcripts, all U.S. newspapers, etc. Business search forms will allow you to select the most popular business sources to search through.
- You will usually find content-specific search options on these forms. For example, on the All News form, you will see that you can select an option that will only search editorials and opinions. The specialized search forms highlight options that you may not know exist on the PowerSearch form.
- These specialized forms provide a guided search. You can enter a term in the box, and then select an area to be searched from the drop-down box. The specialized search forms are more intiutive and usually point you directly to the content you want.
If you need to find a specific source, click on the "Sources" section. Then, the Find Sources form. Type the source name into the Keyword box. When you get the list of results, you should see your source in the list. Click the box next to the source name to select the source.
If you would like to know more about the source, like when it updates or how current the source is, click the "i" icon next to the source name, as in the image below:

In 2011, Spike (also known as Spice) was living in a squalid basement. Tied to a wall with a short leash, he had no access to food or water. He was severely emaciated, weighing only 32 pounds when the ASPCA rescued him. Over the next two years, staff at the ASPCA nursed him to health and brought his weight up to 54 pounds. But despite his sweet, loving temperament, Spike just couldn't find a home. We worried he might never get adopted. Then, on Christmas Eve, we got the greatest gift of all.
Joe and Lou, two brothers from New Jersey, first learned about Spike on Facebook. They had been looking for a dog for a while when someone shared Spike's photo on their timeline. "I figured the right dog would come along eventually, and he did," said Lou. The very next day, December 24, they went to the ASPCA Adoption Center and adopted Spike.
Many ASPCA staff said goodbye to the precious pit bull with tears of joy—no one more so than Animal Care Technician Trevor Simms. Trevor worked with Spike daily during his time at the ASPCA. Despite the bittersweet goodbye, Trevor couldn't have asked for a better holiday miracle.
"Finally," was all he could manage to say.
Spike now spends his days with Joe and Lou at their racing shop in New Jersey. He spends his nights in their warm, loving home.
Ready to help more animals like Spike in 2014? Join us! Become an ASPCA Guardian, and for just a few cents a day, you can make a huge impact on countless lives.
This story brought tears to my eyes. How this baby must have suffered in the hands of a so-called human being. I hope the person who did this was fined and put in jail. That is the only way this sort of thing is going to stop. A slap on the wrist will not send a serious message at anyone else that has done or is doing this sort of thing to another animal.
We have a small rescue on our farm in Kentucky, We have 21 dogs- most with shelter backgrounds, some abused, some thrown away and some were just "meant to be here. We love each and every one of them, they are very expensive and time consuming, but we could not imagine a better way to spend our spare time, if we are not working to afford the rescue we are with them feeding watering vetting cleaning up after them or just plain loving them. I will never understand how someone could look into the eyes of these innocent babies and cause them pain and suffering. I just can't wrap my mind around the minds of these sick bastards. I would split my last bite of food with any animal that needed it. I will never stop helping these wonderful creatures. We will never not have enough room for one more. We also have over 40 cats, we lost count after 40. Most are outside barn cats or heated huge dog house cats, but we know each and everyone's name attitude and make sure all get a mama or a daddy cuddle as often as we can. All our fur children are spayed/neutered/ up to date on shots and make sure all get what they need no matter what we have to do without. The story about spike makes me so sad but then makes me very happy. I wish more people felt like the awesome people here and all animals would know love, warmth and the feeling of being a family member. One more thing- my second job is keeping this place clean. I will not have a smelly or dirty house. We deserve it and so do our fur covered children.
I think the furnaces of hell get turned up a notch for the monsters.... I love all fur babies they are not just a 4legged companion, they are part of your home.
I couldn't agree more!!! I just cannot imagine what could possibly make a person do such as this.
Add old people to the list and I totally agree.....
Be careful what you say. you will get old someday !!
Lin, we can only hope that place exists for the monsters who torture God's precious animals and children. Every day in the news I hear of horrible stories and can not believe there are such people but they are. We need to continue to fight for animal and childrens rights and make punishment stronger for the crimes commited.

The 2015-2016 school year marks the eleventh year of the Women's Mentoring Program! The program connects new and transfer undergraduate women one-on-one with a mentor (a UI staff or faculty member, or a local community member) who strives to provide them with personal, academic, and professional support, guidance and encouragement. In addition to the one-on-one relationship, all participants will be strongly encouraged to participate in Women's Center activities, and to attend informal group luncheons and events. There are a number of successful Women's Mentoring Programs throughout the world, and mentoring has been proven to be an invaluable tool for career success.
Mentors: Female staff, faculty, or community members.
Mentees: All undergraduate-level women are eligible to participate, but the program focuses specifically on first-year and transfer students.
Course credit: All mentees are required to register for one credit of SOC 498 or WMST 498 to participate in the program.
The Women's Mentoring Program seeks to strengthen the experiences of first-year/transfer women and professional staff/faculty at the University of Idaho through a non-hierarchical mentoring model based on networking, community involvement and service.
Participants in the 2013-2014 Women's Mentoring Program created the purpose, values, and vision statement below during the mentoring course offered in the Fall 2013 semester.
The Women's Mentoring Program promotes equity, inclusion, and collaboration, and provides academic, emotional, and social support for participants. The program is available to women students of all backgrounds. Activities and group projects attached to the mentoring program aim to create a safe, mutually respectful environment for the sharing of personal challenges and goals, as well as creating shared learning experiences. Based on a shared leadership and networking model, the program will teach and require accountability and professionalism, in order to empower mentors and mentees to achieve academic, professional, and personal success.

We'd Like to Exchange Numbers with Armani Model Caleb Halstead – The Daily Swoon
Sometimes you come across photos of a male model and you're just like, "Uh … huh …" and you forget what words are for a minute. That's how we feel about Caleb Halstead.
This guy makes me feel like a cavewoman who has to develop language for the first time. When I found these photos, I let out an audible "Guh." I think that means I'm on my way to inventing the words "OH MY GOD."
Meet Caleb Halstead, a model for Armani Exchange, Abercrombie and Fitch, and Azul Jeans — among many others. Caleb also does runway work, obviously, because who doesn't want to see this guy in motion?
He graduated from high school in 2006, where he previously earned letters playing in various sports, duh. At just 19 years old, Caleb was nabbed by IMG when employees there snapped some Polaroids of him on the spot and declared him model-worthy. He's currently represented by both Wilhemina models in New York and Nous in Los Angeles and continues to expand his portfolio with tons of glorious print work.
Bonus: I found this cute Armani Exchange video interview with Caleb, in which he doesn't wear a shirt for half the video and also reveals himself to be a horrible dancer, but I'm sure you can overlook one of those things.

Men's Basketball Rallies from 12 Down in Second Half; Fall in Final Seconds at Limestone 78-75
February 5, 2011
GAFFNEY, S.C. A second half rally by Pfeiffer University was almost complete until a free throw by Danny Friend broke a 75-75 tie as Limestone College barely held on for a 78-75 win over the Falcons in Conference Carolinas mens basketball on Saturday night at the Timken Center. The Saints improve to 16-3 overall, 10-1 in league play while the Falcons erased in a 12-point second half deficit falling to 8-11, 6-5.
Trailing 57-45 with 13:39 to go in the second half, a three-point play by Jeff Pettiway by started the Pfeiffer comeback. Josh Humphrey followed with a three and short jumper that brought the Falcons within four at 57-53 at the halfway point of the second. Back-to-back layups by Reggie Hollinger tied and gave the visitors a 63-61 lead with 7:33 to play.
Chris Woods gave Pfeiffer a one point lead twice with free throws at the 4:28 mark and with a dunk 52 seconds later. With 3:14 left, Woods pushed the Falcons ahead for the final time with a layup at 3:14 taking a 71-70 lead. Hollinger tied it twice late with two more easy baskets, but Friend and a basket by Jarrell Douglass sealed the win. Douglass came up big with a block in the final 15 seconds to prevent a possible overtime situation.
Douglass led all scorers with 19 while Friend had 13, just two of four Saints in double figure scoring. Hollinger paced Pfeiffer with 18 while Woods contributed with 15. Humphrey wrapped up with 11 points and team high eight rebounds while Davon Gilliard chipped in with 10.
Pfeiffer returns to action on Monday taking the long trip up to Mount Olive for a 7:30 p.m. tip with the Trojans.

Reality check: Shop or drop this Open Season
Monday - 12/3/2012, 2:00am EST
For most federal workers and retirees, going over the fiscal cliff in January isn't the problem du jour.
Sequestration will happen or not (probably not) and there is little — other than worry — you can do about it.
Six months from now, we will most likely have forgotten what a hot topic the tax and spend issue was. But...
If you or a family member gets really sick or has a serious accident in the new year, that is reality. That, rightly so, will be your No. 1 problem. And whether you come out of it alive and kicking or financially strapped could depend on what you do between now and next Monday. Doing nothing is an option, but not a good one.
When it comes to shopping for the best health insurance deal, most federal and postal retirees have the same strategy: They do nothing. Although the health insurance Open Season ends at COB next Monday, the vast majority of retirees made their decision years ago. Stay the course!
Year after year, the vast majority of federal retirees stick with the same health plan that they had while working even though for most their medical expenses have increased while their income — annuity vs. salary — has dropped.
For the majority of retirees, the plan of choice is Blue Cross-Blue Shield's standard, which expert Walton Francis calls "the gold standard" of the federal health program's plans. Francis edits CHECKBOOK's Guide to Federal Health Plans. Many federal agencies subscribe to the online version so their employees can compare plans at work. Members of the AFGE and NTEU unions also have access to it as part of their membership perks.
Whether you are a 100-year-old retiree or a super-healthy 25-year-old, it pays to shop around. Francis says individuals can save $1,000 a year in 2013 by picking the right plan. Couples even more.
Many retirees assume that with Medicare Part A (which is free), most of their medical bills will be taken care of. Many with Part A and B know it. Or think they do. But while they are the primary payers, retirees have more aches, pains and problems than younger and middle-aged feds. According to Francis, people older than 65 have a 12 percent chance of having high-cost ($25,000 or more) medical bills next year. Younger employees have only a 4 percent chance of hitting or exceeding that number. So, although both groups in the same plans pay the same premium, older individuals typically have higher costs.
In his CHECKBOOK guide, Francis estimates that a single retiree with Medicare Parts A and B who has an "average" medical year in 2013 will spend a total of $3,980 in premiums and out-of-pocket costs in the Blue Cross basic plan. Someone 55 and under, in the same plan who has average expenses next year will pay out a total of only $1,800 in 2013, he says. Both active and retired people pay the same FEHBP premiums. The difference in out-of-pocket payments is that they use more medical services and need more prescription drugs.
One way retirees can give themselves excellent coverage, while reducing their premiums, is to consider the managed-care HMOs. Francis gives top marks to Kaiser, CareFirst Blue Choice standard and Aetna basic. If you prefer fee-for-service plans he says that GEHA standard option, Foreign Service, Blue Cross basic, the MHBP standard Medicare Pilot and APWU high options will cover you nicely, and at lower premiums than the Blue Cross standard provided to remain in their network of physicians.

Changes coming in 2013 to flexible spending accounts
s federal employees weigh health plan options during Open Season, registered employee benefits consultant Ed Zurndorfer advises feds not to overlook flexible spending accounts.
Agencies making inroads with workforce, succession planning
IRS, DoD and Interior all are pursuing an assortment of initiatives to prepare for personnel reductions. DoD will release an updated workforce strategic plan by 2015. The IRS is using an online assessment tool to measure how ready employees are to move into leadership positions. Interior is getting managers to understand their important role in workforce planning.

A North Carolina senator urges officials to act immediately to combat the "sexual assault crisis" the military is facing.
"I don't want (troops) wondering or worrying, will today be the day I become a victim of sexual assault?" U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan, D-NC, said this week during a teleconference with media. "No one … when they are already putting their lives on the line to protect our nation … should have to worry about sexual assault."
Hagan was responding to a recent report released by the Department of Defense on sexual assault in the military. The report announced a series of actions that will be put in place to prevent and respond to sexual assault in the armed forces.
"Right now too many victims don't come forward because they are either afraid of retaliation, don't believe their confidentiality will be maintained or they don't have faith in the military justice system," Hagan said.
Marine Corps officials agree that something must be done.
"Sexual assault is unacceptable in the Marine Corps," said Col. Michael Hudson, the head of the Marine Corps' sexual assault prevention and response branch. "We must allow our current initiatives to take effect, while continuing to explore new ways to reduce — with the goal to eliminate — sexual assault and further increase the quality of all aspects of our response system.
"Our leadership remains personally committed to stopping all forms of this crime within our ranks."
In 2012 there were 3,374 reports of sexual assault involving service members as victims or subjects — an increase from 3,192 in 2011. The reports range from abusive sexual contact to rape. This is the first update to the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Strategic Plan since 2009.
"Our goal is to change the culture of the Marine Corps, to create an environment in which all Marines can serve proudly with dignity and respect," Hudson said.
The strategy to eradicate sexual assault in the military will use prevention, investigation, accountability, advocacy and assessment, according to the Department of Defense report released on May 7.
Hudson said the report indicates that sexual assault continues to be a challenge in the Marine Corps. He emphasized there are programs in place to try and help.
"Our Sexual Assault Prevention and Response training programs teach Marines how to help, emphasizing bystander intervention, an initiative designed to prevent the crime before it happens, and outlining all the resources and options available to victims should the crime occur," he said.
The Department of Defense has established a federal advisory committee to conduct an independent review and assessment of the systems used to investigate, prosecute and adjudicate crimes involving adult sexual assault. The panel will convene no later than July 1.
"Sexual assault is a big issue in the Marine Corps because it contradicts the values that every Marine has sworn to defend, results in an irrevocable loss of faith in the institution and leads to the degradation of unit cohesion, mission capability and morale," Hudson said. "The commandant recognizes these devastating effects and he and all Marine Corps leaders are personally committed to leading the change against this crime."
Contact Daily News Military Reporter Thomas Brennan at 910-219-8453 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Follow him on Twitter @ thomasjbrennan.

More than monkey business
Disneynature's 'Monkey Kingdom' is its strongest yet
"Did you know monkeys could swim?" asks Tina Fey in Monkey Kingdom. While she's asking, a toque macaque (a two foot-long monkey with red-white fur and great hair) breast-strokes under the surface of a pond, yanking out lily pad flowers by her teeth and dragging them ashore to munch later.
Turns out monkeys can swim. And slide down telephone poles. And do the thing from Flashdance where you bring down a cascade of water on your head and shake it off in slow-motion.
All will happen in Monkey Kingdom, the eighth film in nine years from Disneynature, Disney's wildlife documentary outlet. > Read more.

Hey Mick, I see you're the TD for the Iroquois tournament later in October. If you make a flier for the tournament let me know and I'll get it posted at Georgetown. They have a nice new locking bulletin board right next to hole 1. I got a copy of the key from the parks department and would be glad to post your flier in there. Just let me know.
And clear out your PM's dude, I couldn't send you one because your mailbox is full.

NFL Preview - Atlanta (2-0) at San Diego (2-0)
By Lyle Fitzsimmons, Contributing NFL Editor
(Sports Network) - Thanks to Michael Turner, the Atlanta Falcons have been among the NFL�s most prolific ground-gaining teams since he first landed in Georgia from San Diego back in 2008.
But this Sunday afternoon, when the Falcons will travel back to the West Coast to meet Turner's old Chargers team at Qualcomm Stadium, it's not clear whether he'll be any help at all.
The 30-year-old, a nine-year veteran who was selected by San Diego in round five of the 2004 draft, made headlines early Tuesday morning with an arrest for drunken driving and speeding just hours after Atlanta jumped to 2-0 with a 27-21 Monday-night defeat of the Denver Broncos.
Turner spent two hours in custody in Gwinnett County, Ga. and was released after posting $2,179 bond.
"It was a bad decision on my part," he said.
Though Turner is expected to escape any league discipline for the incident, Falcons head coach Mike Smith was noncommittal about whether the running back would play.
"This is a legal matter, and it's very well-defined how we have to proceed with it through the league, and we'll let this process run its course," Smith said.
With the 5-foot-10, 237-pounder or without him, this game is still one of two Week 3 matchups of remaining unbeaten teams.
Turner has been less a factor through the first two weeks of this campaign compared to his previous four seasons with the Falcons, who've been more of an air-first outfit with first-year offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter in 2012.
Quarterback Matt Ryan is the league's top-rated passer with a figure of 117.6, and he's completed 70.1 percent of his throws for 518 yards and five touchdowns. The Falcons and New Orleans also are the only teams with three players with at least 122 receiving yards over the initial two games. Wide receiver Roddy White has 189, tight end Tony Gonzalez has 123 and second-year wideout Julio Jones has 122.
On the ground, the Falcons are 28th in the league with an average of 3.0 yards per carry. Atlanta ran for 67 yards on 28 attempts in the victory over Denver, with Turner contributing 42 yards and a touchdown that stretched his team record to 51.
In one previous game against the Chargers, Turner ran for 120 yards and Ryan threw for 207 with two touchdowns during a 22-16 win in San Diego in 2008. Atlanta has never lost in San Diego and is 7-1 in the all-time series.
The Falcons have not begun a season with three consecutive wins since 2004.
The Chargers are already over their usual early-season norm, having recorded their first 2-0 start with sixth-year head coach Norv Turner at the helm. After beginning the year with a 22-14 win at Oakland, San Diego opened its 2012 home schedule with a 38-10 rout of Tennessee.
"The thing that is unique to me is how close they are," Turner said of players. "The number of new guys we brought in (are) the right types of guys -- (tight end) Dante (Rosario), (linebacker) Jarret (Johnson), (running back) Le'Ron (McClain). They feel the chemistry that's already there."
Starting for the injured Antonio Gates, Rosario caught three touchdown passes in last week's defeat of Tennessee. Subbing for ailing running back Ryan Mathews, Jackie Battle -- another new addition -- rushed for 69 yards and scored twice.
"It is a super unselfish team all the way through, it's just win," quarterback Philip Rivers said. "I just want to win and that's how every guy thinks: 'I just want to win. How can I help us win?'"
Rivers is second in the league with a 73.8 percent completion percentage, and the offense expected to have Mathews back for Sunday's test after missing the first two games after fracturing his collarbone in preseason. Gates, who's battling a rib injury, is considered questionable but is close to returning as well.
San Diego has scored 60 points while allowing just 24 through two games. The defense, now under first-year coordinator John Pagano, is allowing 41.5 rushing yards per game.
Atlanta, meanwhile, has allowed 270 rushing yards and four touchdowns on the ground thus far and faces a Chargers team that put up 148 rushing yards without Mathews in Week 2.
"At some point in time this year, even though this is a passing league, you're gonna have to stop the run," Smith said.
Falcons lead 7-1
Streak: Falcons have won last five meetings Last Meeting: Falcons 22, Chargers 16 (Nov. 30, 2008 at San Diego)
Falcons HC Mike Smith vs. Chargers: 1-0 Chargers HC Norv Turner vs. Falcons: 0-3 overall, 0-1 with San Diego Smith vs. Turner Head-to-Head: Smith leads, 1-0
Notes: Falcons are 5-0 all-time at Qualcomm Stadium, with the Chargers' only win in the series a 10-7 decision in Atlanta on Sept. 15, 1991. San Diego has scored more than 16 points only twice in its eight lifetime matchups with Atlanta. Turner has lost to the Falcons as the head coach of three different teams: Washington (1994), Oakland (2004) and San Diego (2008).
Offensive Team Rankings
Atlanta: 21st overall (325.5 ypg), 26th rushing (75.5 ypg), 12th passing (250.0 ypg), 2nd scoring (33.5 ppg)
San Diego: 19th overall (337.0 ypg), 22nd rushing (90.0 ypg), 14th passing (247.0 ypg), 5th scoring (30.0 ppg)
Defensive Team Rankings

San Diego: 3rd overall (266.5 ypg), 1st rushing (41.5 ypg), 12th passing (225.0 ypg), 2nd scoring (12.0 ppg)
Turnover Margin

Red Zone Touchdown Percentage (offense)
Atlanta: 63.6 percent (11 possessions, 7 TD, 4 FG) -- 12th overall San Diego: 54.5 percent (11 possessions, 6 TD, 5 FG) -- 19th overall
Red Zone Touchdown Percentage (defense)
Atlanta: 100.0 percent (5 possessions, 5 TD, 0 FG) -- tied 30th overall San Diego: 50.0 percent (4 possessions, 2 TD, 2 FG) -- tied 11th overall
Ryan has thrived in limited exposure against AFC foes, winning 14-of-18 such games for his career. He posted a 130.2 passer rating in his only previous start at San Diego and leads the NFL through two games with a 117.6 mark. For his career, the Falcons are 25-0 when Ryan posts a rating of over 100. Though he's had a difficult off-field week, Turner - a fifth-round pick of the Chargers in 2004 - is third in the NFL since 2008 with 5,355 rushing yards and second with 51 rushing touchdowns. In Atlanta's last meeting with San Diego, with whom he spent four seasons, the veteran back ran 31 times for 120 yards, and his team are 27-2 when he carries at least 21 times. Among Ryan's targets, White has 88 catches for 1,288 yards and 11 touchdowns in his last 11 games against AFC foes, and had six catches for 112 yards the last time he faced the Chargers. Since the start of 2007, White leads the NFC with 485 receptions as well. His partner Jones has five touchdown grabs and an 18.5 yards-per-catch average in five career games against the AFC, while Gonzalez has five career 100-yard games against San Diego. In his last three meetings with San Diego alone, the trusty tight end has averaged 105 receiving yards per game, caught 26 balls and scored three times. Three more scoring catches will give Gonzalez 100 for his career.
For San Diego, linebacker Shaun Phillips is third all-time in Chargers' history with 62 sacks, trailing only Leslie O'Neal (105 1/2) and Lee Williams (65 1/2) since the stat became official in 1982. In the backfield, ball- hawking safety Eric Weddle is tied for the NFL lead with eight interceptions since the start of 2011.
Though he's not won the hardware of his colleagues from the 2004 draft, Rivers is beginning to compile outstanding career numbers. He's just 200 passing yards short of joining Hall of Famer Dan Fouts and John Hadl as the lone Chargers to reach 25,000. Rivers has been especially good at home, where he's compiled a 98.3 passer rating while winning 38 of 49 lifetime starts. Against the NFC, he's 14-10 with 45 touchdown throws, 20 interceptions and a 95.1 rating in 24 starts, and the Chargers are 39-8 when he gets over 100 in the rating department. In the backfield, the relatively anonymous Battle scored a career-high two rushing touchdowns last week. Among Rivers' targets, Gates is three catches shy of becoming the fifth at tight end to reach 600 for his career and owns 76 career touchdown catches, trailing only Hall of Famer Lance Alworth (81) for tops in franchise history. Reserve tight end Rosario had three touchdown catches last week, while wide receiver Malcom Floyd exceeded 100 yards for the eighth time in his career during the Tennessee win. In his last three meetings with Atlanta - all while with New Orleans - wideout and offseason acquisition Robert Meachem compiled 15 catches for 245 yards and two scores.
For the Falcons, defensive end John Abraham leads all active players with 113 sacks and linebacker Sean Weatherspoon had a team-best 10 tackles on Monday. Safety William Moore added a sack and an interception of Peyton Manning in the defeat of Denver, the first time in his career he's had both in one game.
Call it the first in the annual cavalcade of "possible Super Bowl previews" for 2012, matching two of the last six unbeaten teams in the league through two weeks. Ryan and his mates have been super-prolific over the first two games, but they encounter a stubborn foe in the Chargers - who have an offense of their own and a defense that's been strong in its own right. While the Falcons may be flying a bit higher, the home-field advantage calls for a razor-thin win for San Diego.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Chargers 28, Falcons 27

Update: Rock Cut will be having a drawing for trapping. Please read our news release for more information.
out of the states far northern region is Rock Cut State Park in
Winnebago County. Nearby are other "rocky" landmarks - the mighty
Rock River and the place where wagons once forded it, Rockford. Its
an area of rolling plains, interesting history and recreational variety.
lakes set off the parks 3,092 acres. Pierce Lake, with 162 acres,
is a retreat for people wanting to fish, ice fish or ice skate. A second
50-acre Olson Lake is especially for swimmers. Rounding out the parks
recreational options are camping, hiking, horseback trails and cross-country
skiing. Whatever the season, you can be sure theres quite a bit
of activity going on at Rock Cut State Park.
Summer Hours (April – October) Gates open at 6:00 a.m. – Gates close at 10:00 p.m.
Winter Hours (November – March) Gates open at 8:00 a.m. – Gates close at 5:00 p.m
the middle of the 17th century, Miami-speaking tribes of Native Americans
entered the region of Rock Cut State Park after the Iroquois drove them
from territory on the southern end of Lake Michigan. From about 1655 until
1735, the Rock River was within the range of the Mascouten, who were also
pushed westward by the Iroquois. The Winnebago ranged southward from Wisconsin
to the Rock River from the 1740s until 1837, while the rivers upper
portion was on the periphery of the Fox and Sauk territory from about
1765 to 1833. By 1800, the Potawatomi, Ottawa and Chippewa nations had
extended their range into the area, but they ceded their lands to the
United States 32 years later following the Black Hawk War.
of Winnebago County Began after the Black Hawk War. The region that is
now Rock Cut State Park was settled partly by Scots around Argyle - named
for their Scottish home of Argyllshire - and partly by Canadians, New
Yorkers and New Englanders around the town of Harlem - named for New York
Citys Harlem. The Illinois version of Harlem was moved in 1859 when
the Kenosha-Rockford Rail Line was built. The dammed waters of Pierce
Lake now cover much of the railroad bed within the park, although portions
of the railroad grade are visible along Willow Creek below the spillway.
But blasting operations in a rock outcrop that railroad crews conducted
during the 1859 construction left lasting impressions here - they cut
through rock to provide a suitable roadbed and gave Rock Cut its name.
Park's Present
water serves as a welcome mat to birds and animals, wildlife watchers
to the area wont be disappointed. Birders report good viewing, with
waterfowl being abundant. Deer, fox, muskrat, woodchuck and beaver inhabit
Rock Cut State Park as do opossum, raccoon and both gray and fox squirrel.
Over 100 types of wildflowers offer a showy display each spring and summer,
while the hardwood trees dazzle you with their reds and golds every fall.

This is a great hiking sandal with excellent tracktion. i love wearing the sandals on bike rides to keep my feet cool. they also provide excellent traction when i get off my bike and go on hikes.
Purchased my second pair! Chacos last a very long time and give you a very consistent experience. They take a good hike to break in and become very addicting. Sizing is consistent, don't order big! Having them fit well is important for your comfort. They are on the heavy side, but it is needed to provide a sturdy base for aggressive hikes.
These sandals offer unmatched longevity, traction and quality. Minimalist design with single synch means there are few fail-points, and are quick to get on and off. I know some people that have gone though several "re-lacings" and the things still had traction on them. Can't beat Vibram. Super comfortable as well.When packing them up I with they are lighter/less bulky, but it seems to be worth it.
Has the grip to perform in all kinds of conditions. Climbing, hiking, at work, anywhere. Comfortable, and worth every penny. Last a long time. Look a little nerdy, but the comfort level is well worth it. Sole gives you plenty of use out of this sandal. You'll be wearing them everywhere.
i bought these on sale for like $50 and was a little skeptical at first. i wore them very very lightly for about a year and decided i needed to start getting my money's worth out of them. i did a week long wandering trip in europe and only packed these. once my feet got accustomed to the chacos, they became best friends and have been inseparable ever since. these are incredible, and can be worn any time...when its cold, you loosen the straps and make room for wool socks. they dry quickly, come off easy for when its time to go barefoot.....perfect in every way, i'd pay $100 for 'em
Vibram soles on sandals equal awesome. Your feet stay put in the sandal and don't slide around, they are stiff enough to hike in and don't have that stupid toe hole to cause any blisters. Plus all black sandals look B.A.
I didn't hear about these shoes until I went away to college, where just about every person had a pair for these. They are the most comfortable shoe, & they had a certified foot doctor design them. They are great for a hike or day to day occasions.

Pierce Jens, Baratza Email Support Guru, shares his thoughts on how to choose the best grinder for you!
What grinder is best for me? This question has popped up more than a few times in the Support department, I hope that this blog will help inform and educate how to optimize your grinder selection for your caffeination needs.
The first thing you need to decide is what kind of brew method(s) you plan on employing. Next, think about how far down the rabbit hole you want to go. Coffee, like all things, can be a basic enjoyment, or a scientific art. Having expensive equipment definitely helps procure good extractions, but spending money is not going to guarantee you delicious shots, beautiful art or delicate flavors in your pourover. Those things come from practice, understanding, and appreciation of the process. Are you interested in drinking a tasty cup of coffee, and that is all? Do you want to find the perfect balance of complimentary notes in your manual extraction? Or, do you want to procure an exact 30 second, two ounce with crema shot (or whatever parameters you prefer) and have the ability to change the shot time in increments as small as one second?
We have two different families of grinder models- conical and flat burr grinders. The discussion of which is better between conical vs flat burrs could be compared to the argument of Ford vs Chevy; people will stick to their side of the argument tooth and nail depending on personal preference. Right now we have one hopper design on the market that holds 300 grams of whole beans- our new hopper with the bean shutoff lever will be available later this summer.
The current conical lineup includes the Encore, Virtuoso, and Preciso. These grinders all have 32mm conical burrs made in Liechtenstein. We pride ourselves on having high quality conical burrs that generally last for about 500# of coffee. The 160 watt DC motors are low revving compared to AC motors, spinning the burrs at ~450rpm and keeping heat transfer to the grounds down. Our new gearbox layout, the GB2.0, accurately meshes the helical worm shaft of the motor with the reduction gear for a smooth, direct drive transfer of power. The grind is adjusted in a cork screw type fashion, with the adjustment ring threads pulling the stationary upper burr closer or further from the rotating lower burr. Grounds retention in the machine is about a gram, which reduces the amount of coffee needed to purge. The 100 gram capacity bin and the discharge chute are made of an anti-static plastic, which helps battle the inevitable static better than a coating.
The flat burr lineup includes the Vario and Vario W at this time. The Forte is pending release, it is designed for heavy commercial use. The Vario and Vario W have 54mm flat ceramic burrs that are very resilient and last longer than steel burrs- around 750# estimated. The digital front panel is capable of saving 3 preset functions, and the adjuster levers are easy to read and adjust. Grind size is adjusted by a milled metal camshaft. As you raise the adjustment lever, the lobe on the camshaft presses up against the bottom of the lower burr, decreasing the gap between the lower burr and the stationary upper burr. The same 160 watt motor powers the burr, using a belt drive transmission that reduces noise.
Our entry level conical burr grinder is the Encore. At $129 USD, it has the ability to grind a coarse French press grind and a 40 setting range that produces an espresso fine grind as well. The Encore has an intermittent pulse button on the front of the machine as well as an on/off knob on the side. I recommend the Encore for those who do not want to commit substantial time for brewing, but understand and appreciate the benefit of fresh ground coffee at home. The Encore does grind slowest of our models, at a rate of about a gram a second.
The Virtuoso is a step up from the Encore with a price point of $229 USD. With a sharp looking cast zinc upper casing and base, this grinder immediately catches the eye. Besides being nice to look at, it excels at a consistent coarse grind, and readily produces espresso fine grind. Like the Encore, the Virtuoso has an intermittent pulse button, but on the side of the machine it has a 60 second timer switch. The timer switch is nice to have over the on/off switch of the Encore, because you can turn it a quarter of the way or so when grinding by dose. The machine will chug through the beans and power itself off while you prepare your filter/brew equipment. With a max throughput of around 2 grams a second, the Virtuoso is very efficient and quick enough for impatient coffee connoisseurs. I highly recommend the Virtuoso, as I enjoy operating mine at home for single cup pourover.
The next step up in our model line is directed for users who are seriously making espresso, along with manual extractions, and desire more control than the 40 step adjustment. Although the Virtuoso and Encore models will grind fine enough for espresso, a user may find it difficult to procure an exact shot time. The Preciso, at $299 USD, addresses this issue with the addition of a micro adjustment which allows users to find a grind setting in between the 40 macro steps. When pulling espresso shots the micro adjustment function can be used to adjust the shot time by as little as one second, ceteris paribus. I recommend the Preciso for users who are pulling shots and are controlling the other variables such as dosage, water weight, shot time, temperature, tamp pressure, and of course having fresh beans (preferably less than two weeks from the roast date).
The Vario is our ceramic flat burr grinder at $449 USD that grinds based on a time input (ten seconds, fifteen seconds, etc). With macro and micro adjustment options, the Vario is superb at grinding for espresso. It is also available with a set of steel burrs that are cut for manual brew grinding ONLY. The digital display holds three preset times that are programmable by the user. A Porta Holder is included with the Vario, allowing users to grind hands-free into the espresso basket. The regular grounds bin has a 140 gram capacity. I recommend the Vario for espresso fanatics, and encourage heavy users to buy the Vario over the Preciso.
Vario W
Mechanically speaking, the Vario W is identical to the Vario. However, rather than grinding based on a time input, the Vario W grinds based on a desired weight input and will grind the dose within 0.2 grams of the desired input. This allows users to control another variable in the brewing equation without additional equipment/steps. With a 300 gram maximum capacity of the load cell, the user cannot grind by weight directly into an espresso porta filter- only into the 120 gram capacity grounds bin provided. The Vario W is priced at $549 USD.
At $129 USD, the Esatto is an attachment for our conical burr grinders that allows the users to grind by weight directly into the 60 gram capacity grounds bin provided, saving the user the extra step of weighing the dose on a separate scale. The Esatto has a 300 gram max cap for the scale and cannot grind by weight directly into an espresso porta filter. The Esatto fits the Encore, Virtuoso, Preciso, as well as our superseded models Maestro Plus and Baratza Starbucks Barista P/N 1MP1SP.
If you are looking for a grinder for Turkish
No Baratza grinders are designed for Turkish coffee grinding. Although our grinders are capable of producing a Turkish fine grind, the demands on the machine are high. Our grinders have a thermal overload protection circuit that will cut power to the motor if it draws a large amount. Power consumption for Turkish is great, which will cause the machine to shut down into protect mode until it has cooled down for 15 or 20 minutes- perhaps before even grinding a full dose. I have helped several customers with Baratza grinders and the intention of Turkish over the years; none in my experience have been satisfied. I recommend a hand grinder for home Turkish grinding.
