Random Nickelback Fact #1
Posted on February 12, 2008Random Fact - This one comes to us via email from a guy named Disturbed. His words are as follows: "i keep reading stories about random nickelback stuff and i was wondering if u were aware that the lead singer chad was a song producer for a band called default. that's not really what i'm getting at, but i wanted to share with u that he makes a guest appearance in their video....he's one of the guys fighting and the 2 girls trying to break them up...it's kind of hard to see their faces cuz it's blurry, but i watched it a few times and noticed it was him. i just thought it was odd cuz i'm hearing of them everywhere and then they pop up with default. just thought ya would want to know that" We checked out this story with Nickelback's A&R Rep and all is true... If you have a Nickelback random fact, drop us a line.

After an impressive freshman softball season, Frank Phillips College Lady Plainsmen outfielder Janelle Smith was named to the First Team WJCAC All-Conference and the Region V All-Region teams for the 2011 season.
Smith posted a .353 overall batting average, including a .385 mark in conference play, along with 41 hits, 21 runs, seven doubles, two homeruns and 20 RBIs.
The production at the plate impressed FPC Head Softball Coach Jenneffer Kohler, who said, "When she came into the program in the fall we were told that she had the potential to perform well. However, I will say she went far above the expectations I had for her as a freshman."
In looking at Smith's numbers you can see that the outfielder has some power, but Kohler said what sets Smith apart is how well of a job she does putting the ball in play.
A Victoria, British Columbia, native, Smith is just the latest from a Canadian pipeline of players that have came to Borger to be a part of the Lady Plainsmen program and have had success in doing so.
In why FPC has enjoyed success in attracting solid players from Canada, Kolher said, "It's kind of a different world up there because there are limited opportunities for players to be able to play and get an education. I am not exactly sure how the relationship with the people in Victoria and us started but there is no question we have had several players come from there that have played key roles in are program, including Janelle."
Not only has Smith enjoyed success on the field, but the freshman also had a good year in the classroom by holding a 4.0 grade point average for both the fall and spring semesters.
The good news for Kolher and the FPC Softball program is Smith is expected to be back with the team next season.
Smith is the first player to receive All-Region honors in the FPC Softball program.
Earning WJCAC All-Conference honorable mention honors was sophomore outfielder/pitcher Rachelle Vasquez.
A Howard College transfer, Vasquez had a solid season with 22 runs, 42 hits, eight doubles, triple, 17 RBI's while striking out seven times in 134 plate appearances.

Hey All,
I bought this router and i dont like it. I bought it for the VPN part of it so i could connect to my VPN at work from home.
Any way it just doesnt do what i thought it would. I just want a plain old 4 port router, i'll take care of the firewall and vpn and all the business on my own without the help of Linksys.
Here is a link on compusa dot com where i bought it.
I'm just asking $50!
E-mail me or IM me if interested

Prices vary based on delivery destination (it's a tax thing), so please change it if you're not shipping within United States as it might affect the price! (Why?)
The beginnings of the Glenturret whisky distillery are rather vague at best. The owners claim the distillery is one of Scotland's oldest and it is certainly rumoured that distillation was carried out in the area during the early 18th century, this was, though, by illicit means. It was in 1775, that the Hosh distillery was established by a group of smugglers. The buildings sit at the banks of the River Turret, not far from Crieff. Today, the distillery is perhaps best known for its housing of the Famous Grouse Experience. The visitor centre is a top tourist draw and was installed in 2002, for the princely sum of £2.5 million. Famous Grouse is one of the world's best-loved Scotch blends and Glenturret is said to be a component. In 1826, a distillery called Glenturret was established, though it closed a couple of decades later. It was in 1875, that the Hosh distillery adopted the name Glenturret, Thomas Stewart was the manager. The whisky distillery was sadly closed for much of the early part of the 20th century. Following the acquisition by Mitchell Bros Ltd in 1903 the buildings were used as whisky storage. They deemed that whisky production would not be so lucrative. Mitchell Bros went into liquidation in 1929 and for some time the buildings were used for agricultural storage. Glenturret's saviour arrived in 1957 in the form of James Fairlie who acquired the distillery and subsequently refurbished it. Spirit ran from the stills once more in 1959 and, shortly after, the Glenturret distillery was acquired by Remy-Cointreau. Following purchase by Edrington and William Grant and Sons of previous owners, Highland distillers, the Glenturret distillery is under Edrington Group ownership. Glenturret holds its own place in the record books; The Guinness Book of World Records sites Towser, the now woefully deceased cat, as having caught more mice than any other; in her 23 years she is said to have caught 28,899 mice, the real question remains: who counted? There is but one official distillery bottling, though there are independent expressions.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — It's easy to choose the big story of the week, right? Well, if you're a Californian, maybe not.
On Tuesday, the nation voted to give President Barack Obama a second term, deciding that he was a more credible steward of the nation's future than Mitt Romney.
California voted overwhelmingly for Obama, which was no surprise. What was a surprise, and is considered by some observers to be as big a deal, is that California voted to raise taxes by $6 billion a year for the next few years to stave off billions of dollars of cuts to the state's once-great public education system.
Yes, California, which in 1978 started the nation's anti-tax revolt with Proposition 13, has voted to raise taxes. It's interesting to consider whether Prop. 30 will one day be seen as the start of a new, national tax-related trend whose driving mindset is that some essential services are worth protecting, even if we have to pay higher taxes to do it.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.03% rose 4.1 points on Friday to close at 12,815.39 a negligible gain. For the week the index lost 2.1%. The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, +0.21% climbed 9.3 points or 0.3% for the day to close at 2,904.87. The technology heavy index lost 2.6% for the week. The benchmark Standard & Poor's 500 Index SPX, -0.10% rose 2.3 points or 0.2% on Friday to close at 1,379.85. For the week the index fell 2.4%.
Stay tuned to MarketWatch over the weekend. We'll have all the news you need to organize your portfolio and your life.
Please take a moment to watch our week ahead videos.
U.S. week ahead: Lingering earnings, retail sales
Europe's week ahead: Greece, U.K. top the bill
— Christopher Noble, assistant managing editor.
Back to work
Fresh off a grueling re-election victory, President Barack Obama will have to pivot quickly to resolve a fast-approaching budget crisis that could tilt the economy back into recession. He'll have to do so by working across party lines with a divided Congress that has shown little appetite for compromise. Obama victory sets up the next battle.
Love at first trade
The stock market loves President Barack Obama. Equities benchmarks have risen more under Obama than during the first terms of Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush or Bill Clinton. And chances are that the industries that did well in Obama's first term will keep on rolling in his second. Where to put your money now that Obama has won.
Four horsemen
Whether you exhaled or gasped over the presidential election result, there's no denying what comes next: A fiscal slugfest that will play out against a vulnerable U.S. economic recovery and Europe's own debt mop-up. If you believe the so-called fiscal cliff threatens the growth-stock strategies favored during the election run-up, it may be time for a little insurance. Markets eye the 4 horsemen of Obama's second term.

Saturday, 7/23/11
Last weekend I did something that I don't usually do. I played with guns. Real guns. With live ammunition.
We were in Texas, celebrating Joe's dear mom Sonia's 80th birthday, and on Saturday we all needed to come up with some fun activities that would address the broad demographic range within the family. Most of the Democrats went to see the movie "The Tree of Life." And ordinarily I might have done that, too. But for some reason, I decided to buck the stereotype, and I went to the shooting range with the Republicans and the one other trend-bucking liberal. I'm sure that my conservative Texas father-in-law and brother-in-law were both surprised that I decided to go with them. But I was just balancing out the group dynamic, along with my fun-loving, Illinois biologist brother-in-law, and the biologist's 11-year-old son. (That really smart boy knows all about guns, and he owns and is training to use a compound bow, of the type that has to be registered with the state as a lethal weapon.)
So last Saturday I somehow ended up at Red's Indoor Shooting Range. I had never been to a shooting range before, and for an overly sensitive pacifist with an exaggerated startle response, such a place takes a fair bit of getting used to. But once I had made the initial BIG cultural and sensory overload adjustment, I noticed that the folks who ran the place actually had an aura of real mindfulness about them. Perhaps I shouldn't have been surprised by that; after all, it would quickly become a bleak venue for The Darwin Awards if shooting range managers did not embody and foster an attitude of mindful presence. Still, it was eye-opening for me to notice their mindfulness, especially given my casual, unexamined assumptions about gun-toting Second Amendment types.
Father-in-law Harry had brought his Sig Sauer 9 mm, and Andy brought his Beretta 387. I shot both guns a few times. On my second shot with the Beretta, the hot bullet casing ricocheted directly and perfectly into the tiny space between my glasses frame and my face, lodging there securely. The burn mark is still visible a week later; but I set the gun down carefully and mindfully before I started jumping around, yelling and clawing at both my protective safety glasses AND my normal vision glasses. (Being kind of a reactive-nervous-system type, I hadn't been really sure that I could actually be trusted to even be safe around guns; so I was glad to note that I treated the gun carefully even when in sharp pain reaction mode.)
The guys had already fired several times each by the time Andy's Beretta was passed to me, and the target had bullet holes all over it. So instead of clustering my shots in the same center area that everyone else had been aiming for, I pointed the gun at a diamond-shaped sub-target in the lower left corner of the printed target sheet. I thought that several new holes appeared in the immediate vicinity of that diamond, and I was pretty sure those were my shots; but I couldn't say for absolute certain that those holes hadn't already been there when I took the gun. "How can you tell whose holes are whose," I yelled to brother-in-law Sam. He disappeared briefly, and reappeared with a fresh, new target just for me. They put the target up in Harry's shooting slot, and I changed places and switched to Harry's 9 mm.
As I took my TV-cop-show firing stance, Harry stood behind me and put his hands gently on the backs of my shoulders. (I was quite touched by how sweet and supportive he was being; but he told me later that he was just making very sure that he was well out of the way, in case I shot wildly.) I lined up the two aiming marks on the gun, breathed in, and on the second half of my out-breath, I gently squeezed the trigger. The major recoil nearly knocked me over, but I just barely managed to absorb the shock and remain steady on my feet. I paused, adjusted my stance, aimed carefully, and brought my focus of awareness to my breathing again three more times. "Oh my God!" yelled nephew Isaac, sounding shocked. "Aunt Russ is a really good shot! " On the fresh, new target, there were 4 bullet holes, all within just an inch or two of the circled heart. My father-in-law seemed to look at me with new respect, and he remarked several times that day about my shooting prowess. Somehow I felt very validated by that.
Going to a shooting range was really a marked departure from my usual type of activities. I couldn't help but wonder whether the folks there would have been as friendly to me as they were if they'd known who and how I really am in my normal life. I happened to be wearing a dorky fishing vest with a lot of pockets that day, so, at first glance, I might have almost passed for a person who routinely carries bullets around in her pockets, just like the guy behind the counter. But I knew how different our world views were, and I was actually kind of nervous about just being around people who were so into guns.
However, after shooting those big pistols, I could really feel at a visceral level how target practice, and maybe even shooting in general, could be really appealing. There's a certain mindful stillness that's really required in that activity. Maybe that's how the folks I think of as "Second Amendment types" get in touch with that side of their nature. Maybe meditation and shooting actually kind of appeal to a somewhat similar impulse in people. I don't know for sure. But it's an interesting possibility to consider.

The Best Dressed Celebrities of 2013. See Who Made The Cut
- 1 of 14
Though there were countless style stars this year, 15 people in particular stood apart from the pack and had a major year. Find out who made the cut!
- 2 of 14
Red Carpet Maven: Kerry Washington
We knew Scandal actress Kerry Washington had great style—she was our January Guest Editor, after all—but it wasn't until she hit the red carpet for Django Unchained that we really saw her tastemaker potential. Washington turned heads in straight-off-the-runway designs and glamorous confections, landing her on our best-dressed lists for The Golden Globes, Oscars, and Emmys.
- 3 of 14
Best All Around Style: Lily Collins
Lily Collins stole the style spotlight this summer when she embarked on a global press tour to promote her latest film, The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. The actress hit one sartorial high note after another in designs from Givenchy, Valentino, and Celine, mastering a series of of-the-moments looks—think: daring crop tops, cool cutouts, and slinky slip dresses—along the way.
- 4 of 14
Favorite Fresh Face: Lupita Nyong'o
It seemed as if 12 Years A Slave actress Lupita Nyong'o became fashion's favorite up-and-comer overnight. Not surprising, considering right out of the gate the Kenyan beauty was wearing heavyweight designer brands, including Prada, Miu Miu, and Chanel. Here's the good news: her next film, Non-Stop, hits theaters in February, which means we can expect more stellar fashion moments from Nyong'o in the New Year.
- 5 of 14
Dapper Newcomer: Michael B. Jordan
Get ready to see a lot of Michael B. Jordan in the near future. The handsome actor, who had critics buzzing earlier this year for his performance in Fruitvale Station, is hitting the big screen again in January with That Awkward Moment alongside Zac Efron and Miles Teller. Naturally, we're excited to see more of his impeccably tailored suits on the red carpet.
- 6 of 14
Model Muse: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
It's not just that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has exquisite taste in designers—Isabel Marant, Givenchy, and Balmain are among her wardrobe regulars—it's that she has a way of creating seriously enviable ensembles, too. Whether she's wearing a suit without a shirt, white in winter, or the new It boot, our November Guest Editor continues to inspire us daily.
- 7 of 14
Risk-Taker: Miley Cyrus
First she buzzed her hair, then she starting wearing hot pants, and then there was the VMA performance; it's safe to say Miley Cyrus had one heck of a year, and one heck of a style transformation. Embracing a provocative new look, the singer left little to the imagination, shocking everyone with midriff baring tops, see-through dresses, and plenty of pantless moments.
- 8 of 14
Next-Level Style: Nicole Richie
Richie's style is like a fine wine, it gets better with age. The tastemaker set the fashion world abuzz with her gorgeous Marc Jacobs dress at the CFDA Awards, and let's not forget all of the trends she owned this year: bold black and white stripes, neckerchiefs, chunky chains, long-sleeved mini dresses, and fuzzy jackets.
- 9 of 14
Haute Mom: Gwen Stefani
Stefani isn't letting her growing baby bump get in the way of her rocker chic sensibilities. In addition to maintaining her statement-making style and affinity for cool eyewear, the mom also created a new nail polish collection, which launches in January.
- 10 of 14
Street Style Savant: Miranda Kerr
The Aussie model practically lives and breathes great style. In fact, we can't recall a fashion misstep in 2013. Off duty, her outfits are flawlessly executed and perfectly polished. Simply put: We can all learn a lesson or two from Kerr.
- 11 of 14
Best Transformation: Kim Kardashian
We don't know if it was Kanye's influence or the pregnancy hormones, but Kim Kardashian is making some different fashion choices—and they're noteworthy. Aside from the fact that her post-baby body is amazing and she's running around Paris wearing big-name designers like Givenchy, Max Mara, and Proenza Schouler, the girl can rock an oversized coat better than anyone we know.
- 12 of 14
Most Stylish Couple: Beyonce and Jay Z
Beyonce and Jay Z are the ultimate power couple—in music and in fashion. The two nearly started an eco-friendly craze when they announced they were going vegan for 22 days, and then Beyonce went ahead and surprised everyone with 17 fashion-filled videos in one night. Whether they're attending President Obama's Inauguration or vacationing in Cuba, the two live a fabulous life filled with fabulous style moments.
- 13 of 14
Fashion's It Boy: Harry Styles
The obvious joke here is that his last name is Styles, but who are we kidding, the One Direction heartthrob does have dapper sensibilities. The recipient of this year's British Style Award is like a young Mick Jagger with his reverse pompadour, tight dark jeans, and skinny scarves. It's no wonder he makes all the girls swoon.
- 14 of 14
Reader Favorite: Diane Kruger and Olivia Palermo
We took to Twitter and Facebook to find out who you thought was the best-dressed celebrity of 2013, and it came down to a tie between Diane Kruger and Olivia Palermo. It makes sense: while Palermo was a front-row fixture at Fashion Week, Kruger wore a series of stunning outfits on the red carpet. Nice picks, guys!

MORRISTOWN An apartment received moderate damage in a fire early Sunday at the Paddle Inn Bar, 3347 County Route 6.
An occupant of an apartment over the bar escaped without injury.
The Morristown Fire Department was alerted at 1:58 a.m. and arrived at 2:03 a.m., saving the building and keeping damage to a minimum. Two residential rooms of the building were destroyed, but the remaining residential areas suffered minor smoke and water damage. The bar area and a storage area in the building suffered minor smoke damage.
Assistance was provided by the Redwood, Lisbon and Ogdensburg fire departments.
The apartment was occupied by Robin Greenley, who was looking after the property for owner John Bussa, who is staying in Florida. The apartment is above the restaurant and bar. Nobody was harmed in the fire.
Morristown Fire Chief Kevin Crosby said Ms. Greenley was awakened by a smoke detector.
This obviously saved her life, he said in a news release. Without the working smoke detectors we most likely would have been looking at a fatal fire.
The cause of the blaze remains under investigation by the St. Lawrence County Cause and Origin team. It was unclear if the building was insured.

Photo: Johan Santana in the Mets' new blue jersey for 2013
The Mets posted this picture this morning on Twitter of Johan Santana sporting the team's new alternate home jersey (and All Star Game patch) for next season.
9:26 am: The new blue jersey will be for sale at the Mets Team Store at Citi Field today, and later today on Mets.com.
8:47 am: The team at MetsPolice.com has been saying for weeks that the team planned to announce a set of new jerseys this week. Today, MP's Shannon Shark says, "We are still expecting an away-alt, with silver lettering (uniform). Similar to 2011 Los Mets. Potentially I will be updating this post in minutes. Still unclear to me is if the roads will say Mets or N E W Y O R K."
Last month, Shark said the Mets will feature six different uniforms next season, all with an All Star Game patch on the sleeve.
Chris Creamer from SportsLogos.net, which has broken several uniform-related stories over the last year or so, later added that the Mets will feature a blue road uniform with silver and orange lettering and New York on the chest, which Shark again referenced in his post this morning.
According to Creamer, next year's uniforms will also again feature the pinstripe cream and plain whites at home and the same road grays from 2012, as well as a blue jersey at home with orange lettering (pictured in this post). The team will also bring back a black jersey, which Shannon speculates could be a way to honor Mike Piazza, who is finally eligible for the baseball Hall of Fame this summer.
Update, 10:15 am: Here is a picture of the new road blue jersey for 2013, which will be available at the team store along with a free All-Star Game hat at Citi Field later today:

The colonial boundaries created by Britain to delimit Uganda grouped together a wide range of ethnic groups with different political systems and cultures. These differences prevented the establishment of a working political community after independence was achieved in 1962. The dictatorial regime of Idi Amin (1971-79) was responsible for the deaths of some 300,000 opponents; guerrilla war and human rights abuses under Milton Obote (1980-85) claimed at least another 100,000 lives. The rule of Yoweri Museveni since 1986 has brought relative stability and economic growth to Uganda. During the 1990s, the government promulgated non-party presidential and legislative elections. In January 2009, Uganda assumed a nonpermanent seat on the UN Security Council for the 2009-10 term.

All other measures derived from the International Religious Freedom reports were coded from the reports for 2008.

This summer, the Membership and Leadership Development (MLD) program is providing training to local and state League leaders from nine states that are entering the program for the first time ever. After a wonderful financial out-pouring of support for the MLD program at the LWVUS Convention in June 2012, Cheryl, Carol, Kelly, and I (the League trainers for the MLD program) have been met with enthusiasm for the program and for the future of the League.
The Regional Training for LWV State Coaches this past weekend was a great success! Thirty League leaders from 9 states (mostly in the central region of the United States) gathered with LWVUS board, staff, and 8 of the 23 Ruth S. Shur Fellows in Houston, TX from April 13-15, 2012.
LWVUS Board and staff will be training some 30 League leaders from 9 states in Houston, TX on Friday, April 13 until Sunday, April 15, 2012. The training will bring together individuals who have volunteered to be state coaches as part of the Membership and Leadership Development (MLD) program, funded by the Fund for Local League Growth.
With the Nebraska state legislature scheduled to start debate on January 18 on a proposed voter ID bill, the Nebraska League rallied in Omaha with other groups in opposition. Linda Duckworth, president of the League of Women Voters of Nebraska, noted that such legislation "unfairly targets citizens with low income, seniors, youth and citizens with disabilities." Arguing that impersonation is not a problem in her state, she declared, "As a former English teacher, it pains me to say — if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Read more here, here and here.

- How to Read a Study Record
The purpose of the study is to test an online behavioral intervention to improve medication adherence in children diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Interested families will be monitored for four weeks to determine how frequently their child's IBD medication is taken. Patient's taking less than 90% of medications will be randomized to one of two intervention conditions to complete intervention sessions online. The study consists of 4 online intervention sessions with topics differing by condition and 5 online assessments to complete quality of life questionnaires over a 14 month time frame.
Crohn's Disease
Ulcerative Colitis
Indeterminate Colitis
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Behavioral: Telehealth Behavioral Treatment (TBT)
Behavioral: Education Only (EO)
Phase 3
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Single Blind (Investigator)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|Telehealth Enhancement of Adherence to Medication in Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease
- Medication adherence [ Time Frame: 15 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Medication adherence will be measured using electronic monitoring. The specific device is the MEMS TrackCap. Immunomodulators and/or mesalamine medications will be assessed.
- Health-related quality of life [ Time Frame: 15 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The IMPACT III measure will be used for this assessment. This is an IBD-specific HRQOL assessment tool.
- Disease Severity [ Time Frame: 15 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index (PCDAI) and Partial Harvey-Bradshaw Index (PHBI) will be used to assess disease severity in patients with Crohn's disease. The Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Index (PUCAI) will be used in patients with ulcerative colitis.
- Health care utilization [ Time Frame: 15 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Health care utilization will be assessed via medical chart review and all IBD-related hospital admissions, procedures, communications, clinic appointments, and other encounters with the health care system will serve as indicators of utilization.
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|February 2012
|Estimated Primary Completion Date:
|August 2016 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
|Experimental: Telehealth Behavioral Treatment
Behavioral: Telehealth Behavioral Treatment (TBT)
Families in the TBT condition will receive three individually-tailored behavioral intervention sessions in addition to the online education intervention with 1) guided problem-solving and behavior management training tailored to the unique needs and/or barriers of the family, and 2) discussion of the patient's adherence since the previous session. In addition, patients in the TBT condition will be signed up for text message reminder service offered free of charge via www.mymedschedule.com. These are generic reminder text messages are used to assist with adherence in adolescents. Intervention sessions will be conducted via telehealth delivery with trained postdoctoral psychology fellows or masters-level graduates using webcams, supplied by the study, and SkypeTM free software.
|Active Comparator: Education Only
Behavioral: Education Only (EO)
Families in the EO condition will receive three individual sessions in addition to the online education intervention to review 1) online educational intervention material to answer questions participants have, 2) educational brochures from the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA), which contain additional information (e.g., Guide for Parents, Living with IBD, Guide for Kids and Teenagers), and 3) general healthy lifestyle recommendations (e.g., sleep, exercise, etc.). Sessions will be conducted via telehealth delivery with trained postdoctoral clinical psychology fellows or masters-level graduates using webcams, supplied by the study, and SkypeTM free software.
Detailed Description:
The purpose of the study is to test the efficacy of a telehealth behavioral treatment (TBT) protocol to improve medication adherence in children and adolescents with IBD via a randomized controlled clinical trial. Participants in the TBT condition will be compared to those in an education only (EO) condition. In order to examine clinical significance of the intervention, treatment outcomes will include disease severity, HRQOL, and health care utilization. This randomized controlled clinical trial for nonadherence to medication randomizes participants to either the TBT or EO intervention condition, with assessments occurring at baseline, post-treatment, and 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up. Both conditions will participate in a self-guided educational intervention during week 6 of enrollment, with three intervention sessions at weeks 8, 10, and 12. A 4-week run-in phase immediately preceding randomization is utilized to establish participants' baseline adherence. Assessments will occur at week 5 (Baseline Assessment 1), week 14 (Post-treatment Assessment 2), and 3-, 6-, and 12-month post-treatment follow-up (Assessments 3, 4, and 5). Intervention topics will differ for each condition; however, the frequency of contact is equivalent across conditions.

Submission Intel's Six-Core 'Gulftown' Numbers Leaked->
MasJ writes: "PCLab's Polish Website prematurely published test and performance results of Intel's new 6-core 'Gulftown' CPU. Soon after, the article was taken down at Intel's request. Numbers reveal that the new CPU performs almost 50% faster than the previous Quad-Core chips in parallel processes and consumes nearly 50% less power. The 'Gulftown' chip will ship under the Core i9 name and will be Intel's first 6-core dual-socket CPU to hit the market. AppleInsider got a good look at the article before it was removed and says that the CPU will use a 32nm process and might ship as early as Q1 2010."

Businesses and leaders recognized for innovation, energy, and impact in employee volunteering at 2010 VolunteerMatch Client Summit
SAN FRANCISCO – VolunteerMatch has honored Hagerty Insurance, Exelon Corp. (NYSE: EXC), and UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH) for leadership in employee volunteer program management in VolunteerMatch's annual survey of corporate volunteering in the United States.
The awards, announced each year at VolunteerMatch's client summit, recognize outstanding achievement and impact within the nonprofit's network of 120 leading companies and brands. This year's honors were presented at an event sponsored by MGM MIRAGE at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas.
VolunteerMatch recognized Chicago-based Exelon Corp. for the third consecutive year as Corporate Volunteer Program of the Year. This award is presented to a company that illustrates outstanding achievement and results against VolunteerMatch benchmarks for communications, volunteer participation, overall hours tracked, and other key metrics. Exelon ranked ahead of 37 other qualifying companies with 10,000 or more employees.
Hagerty Insurance, based in Traverse City, Mich., received the 2010 award for Corporate Volunteer Program of the Year in the Small to Medium-sized Business category. The inaugural award reflects growing participation in the VolunteerMatch network by smaller companies. Working with a smaller budget and team, the insurer of collector cars and boats rated highest for social impact among a community of similar-sized businesses.
Sue Osten and Debra Krause of UnitedHealth Group, based in Minnetonka, Minn., were recognized as "Champions of the Year" for outstanding teamwork, leadership, accomplishment, dedication and spirit by individual program managers. As leaders in UnitedHealth Group's Office of Corporate Social Responsibility, Krause and Osten organize the company's efforts to engage employees and consumers in volunteering. In addition to company employees logging more than 123,000 volunteer hours in 2009, UnitedHealth Group launched an ambitious cause-related marketing campaign, "Do Good Live Well," and co-published a survey with VolunteerMatch investigating the health benefits of volunteering.
This is the fourth year that VolunteerMatch, the Web's most popular volunteer network, has recognized the achievements of key partners within its client community.

Candy products come and go. Some you don't miss, others you miss terribly.
I miss the braided caramel and chocolate Marathon bars and Bub's Daddy Bubble Gum (especially the apple flavor).
I don't miss the Peter Paul Caravelle bar.
I wish Tootsie Roll Industries would offer a box of just red Dots. I also wish a manufacturer would come out with a really good drug store version of an English toffee bar with a thick layer of milk chocolate. Heath doesn't do it for me. (My kids wish for edible Japanese erasers, but I have a feeling those are already invented.)
Looking back on 2010, several brands/line extensions were "invented," including Jelly Belly Honey Beans, M&M's Pretzel, American Licorice Co.'s Natural Vines, and Gimbal's Honey Lovers.
Also in 2010, a handful of vintage brands made surprise comebacks like Bonomo Turkish Taffy, McCraw's Flat Taffy, and Astro Pops.
Heading into 2011, are there any candies you'd like to see invented, reformulated (e.g., I wish Nestle Crunch Bars could be made with quality chocolate), or coaxed out of retirement?
Anything's possible, so post your ideas below or on Facebook. You never know who's reading.

UPDATE AT 4:00 P.M. (WZZM) -- A Muskegon County judge has upheld a personal protection order (PPO) against Kent County commissioner Gary Rolls.
The judge's decision comes after two days of testimony over the circumstances of the order.
A 28-year-old Muskegon County woman is accusing Rolls of having a sexual relationship with her dating back to her childhood. She also claims Rolls has threatened her over revealing their relationship.
Rolls' attorney cross-examined the woman Friday, the second day of the hearing.
WZZM 13 has crews following developments of the hearing. they will have a live report on WZZM 13 News at 6 p.m.
MUSKEGON, Mich. (WZZM) -- We are learning new details about a Kent County Commissioner facing allegations of sexual assault.
A personal protection order (PPO) hearing was held Thursday morning for Fourth District Commissioner Gary Rolls. The alleged victim now lives in Muskegon County, and took out the PPO in September saying Gary Rolls threatened her.
The victim, who is now 28 years old, testified Thursday that Rolls started abusing her when she was nine years old. The two lived on the same street in Rockford, which is how they know each other.
She told the judge that by the time she was 13, Rolls had intercourse with her and that the abuse continued until she was 23.
Also Thursday, a State Police investigator told the court he anticipates Rolls will be charged with both first- and third-degree criminal sexual conduct. The detective says the charges have not yet been filed because they are still processing evidence taken from Rolls home in Ada.
Rolls attorney requested Thursday's hearing, asking the PPO be dropped.
The victim's attorney defended the need for a restraining order alleging Rolls threatened her, saying, "He knew people in high places."
Rolls just won re-election to the Kent County Commission in the Fourth District Tuesday.
Our lakeshore reporter Jon Mills is in court and he will have more later today on WZZM 13 News and wzzm13.com.
