CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — The Australian government pushed a new 30 percent tax on big mining companies through Parliament on Monday but faces an uphill battle to reduce the tax burden on struggling companies outside the booming commodities sector.
The Senate passed the legislation 38 votes to 32, allowing the government to take a bigger slice of profits from a mining boom driven by Chinese and Indian demand for raw materials.
The boom kept Australia out of recession during the global financial crisis while creating what the government describes as a patchwork economy. Industries outside the mining sector are struggling against a strong Australian dollar and shortages of skilled labor as big mining wages lure away workers.
The government expects the tax will raise 3.7 billion Australian dollars ($3.9 billion) in the fiscal year starting July 1 from mining giants including BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto and Xtrata. The tax will only apply to iron ore and coal mining — Australia's two most valuable exports.
The government wants to use the new revenue to reduce the Australian company tax rate from 30 percent to 29 percent.
Small businesses with revenue of less than AU$2 million a year would receive the tax cut from July 1, under legislation to be introduced to Parliament this week.
The same lower tax rate would apply to big businesses from July 1, 2013, under legislation to be introduced to Parliament in May.
But the center-left Labor Party government does not yet have the support in the Senate to deliver the tax relief to big business.
While the Greens party is willing to support the government's tax cut for small businesses in the Senate, it won't support tax relief for big businesses. The Greens would prefer that money went to health and education.
The conservative opposition coalition opposed the mining tax and has vowed to reject the related tax cuts. The opposition argues that the mining tax would drive investment overseas and cost thousands of jobs in Australia.
Prime Minister Julia Gillard on Monday declined to comment on the state of her negotiations with the Greens or opposition to deliver the company tax cuts.
"We continue to be determined to provide Australian businesses, large and small, with a tax cut," she told reporters.
Her deputy and treasurer, Wayne Swan, told Parliament that the mining boom "will mean that we must maximize the opportunities that flow from that boom and spread them to every corner of our economy."
"This important reform will provide a revenue stream to ensure that businesses in particular that are not in the fast lane of the resources boom get some tax relief," he said.
The mining tax replaces the current state-by-state royalties system in which miners are charged for the volumes of minerals that they extract without reference to the soaring market values of those minerals.
China is Australia's biggest export market and high prices paid for iron ore and coal are providing Australia with its largest monthly trade surpluses in its history.
Chinese demand has driven the price of iron ore up 23 percent a year since 2005 and coal by 8 percent a year. Australian export volumes of iron ore and coal have grown at 10 and 5 percent respectively a year as the Chinese manufacturing sector grows.

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher Just Got Stealth-Married
Hardcore Jackie and Kelso 'shippers, rejoice: The former That '70s Show co-stars have said "I do."
Hardcore Jackie and Kelso 'shippers, rejoice: The former That '70s Show co-stars have said "I do."
Ashton Kutcher decried the lack of changing tables in most men's restrooms in a post that went viral on Facebook.
Former 'That '70s Show' co-stars Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have been dating since April of 2012, but they don't do too much in the way of PDA. So when they smooch or snuggle in public, it's a big deal.
It's not as brilliant as 'Dude, Where's My Car?' but Ashton Kutcher's acceptance speech at the Teen Choice Awards was still pretty impressive.
Clearly not realizing she can do a lot better, Mila Kunis somehow agreed to move in with Ashton Kutcher.
Let's play a game. Based on the image at left, which side is Apple founder Steve Jobs and which side is Ashton Kutcher, the actor playing him in the upcoming biopic 'jOBS'?
One of the biggest films to premiere at Sundance in the coming week is 'jOBS,' the biopic about the late Apple founder Steve Jobs, and we've got a peek at stars Ashton Kutcher and Josh Gad in the lead roles of Jobs and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, respectively.
Media outlets have been spreading rumors about Demi Moore's alleged relationship with newby model Blake Corl-Baietti, since both were seen together in LA not too long ago. We know that's no reason to jump on the gossip train, but wouldn't he make a hotter boytoy than Ashton Kutcher? Let's speculate wildly!
Khloe Kardashian is the latest victim to be 'Punk'd' by Ashton Kutcher on his hit TV show that pranks some of entertainment's finest. In the new season that premieres in just a couple of months, Kutcher calls on some help from a few other famous faces for the episode featuring the reality television star. Both Miley Cyrus and Kelly Osbourne play Kutcher's partners in crime as they have a girls night at Cyrus' Los Angeles home.
Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher have announced they are divorcing, putting an end to rampant speculation about their relationship. The tabloids have had a field day about the state of their marriage for months, with rumors he cheated on her with several women spreading faster than you can say "Dashton."
But is that the real reason they're going their separate ways? We think not. Here's the real inside scoop on why this Hollywood super-couple has decided to call it quits. Add your reasons in the comments.
Television producer Mickey Stern is working on a new reality show called 'Divorce Hotel,' and he's invited Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore to be its first guests.
The actual Divorce Hotel, located in the Netherlands, offers couples "a quickie divorce over the course of a three-day stay, while enjoying five-star accommodations." Several luxury US hotels will offer the same amenities next spring, so Stern sees a golden opportunity to base a reality show around the concept.
Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore spent their sixth wedding anniversary apart Saturday, which has led to rampant speculation that their unlikely union has run its course.
Adding more fuel to the fire is the fact that the couple, who are avid users of social media, haven't been as busy as they usually are on Twitter with Moore not posting a single tweet since Saturday.

I worked at CTS Corporation full-time (More than 8 years)
Nice place to say you have experience, a foot in the door in basic manufacturing.
The buddy system management was a huge downfall in management style. Lot a lot of great people and skills lost so they can promote only drinking buddies from within, a former company transition created a residue that stains current growth.
Advice to Management
To the newest CEO, good luck. I like the direction you are trying to take the company. With that said, visit the facilities without them knowing you are coming. The amount of time I have personally spent "prepping" for a visit from you is worse than having a mother in law visit. A great company doesn't need to "prep" for internal visits like they do for you. Wasted time if it is all to trick you into thinking we really have it together... when you leave the same-o, same-o.....

eyes pls - I need opinions if this is a +OPK or just my hopes are up
im not familiar with those tests is it the kind that the test must be as dark or darker then the control or the kind wher eyou just need a line to be postive?
Quoting Jojo3400:
All the txt pkt says is a "distinct" line.
Negative on the description Page say:" only one colored band appears on the control region c . No color band in the test region t.
I got mine today, this is what a positive looks like :) GL!
What brand is that? All the ones I've seen say the test line has to be as dark or darker than the control line, which would make that a negative. But if yours has different instructions I would go by the manufacturer instructions.

I cook for the holidays the traditional way, though my definition of "traditional" might not be the same as yours. For me, "traditional" means going to the market, picking out what looks good and fresh, and ignoring the rest. It means starting with fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and beans and using meat as a seasoning or garnish, the way our ancestors did. It means looking to other people's culinary heritages for ingredients and seasonings—things like real Parmesan cheese, smoked Spanish paprika, or Thai fish sauce—that make the dishes I grew up with more interesting and exciting.
My holiday cooking isn't rigid or static, nor is it innovative for the sake of being innovative. What it is is good for my health, good for the planet, and, most importantly, delicious. --Mark Bittman
Makes 4 servings
Time: 1 1/2 hours with cooked or canned beans, largely unattended
4 ounces Italian sausage, casings removed, optional
1/4 cup half-and-half or cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary, or 1 teaspoon dried
3 cups cooked or canned navy beans, drained, liquid reserved
Salt and black pepper
1 small butternut squash, peeled and seeded
1/2 cup vegetable stock or water, or more as needed
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, optional
Heat the oven to 325°F. If you're using the sausage, put a small skillet over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add the sausage and cook, stirring to break it into small pieces, for 5 to 10 minutes; don't brown it too much. (If you're not using the sausage, skip to Step 2.)
Combine the half-and-half, rosemary, and beans in a 2-quart baking dish; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Tuck the crumbled sausage (if you're using it) into the beans.
Cut the butternut squash halves into thin slices. Spread the slices out on top of the beans, overlapping a bit; press down gently. Pour the stock over the top, drizzle with the oil, and sprinkle with more salt and pepper.
Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until the top is browned and glazed, another 45 minutes or so. Add a little more stock if the mixture seems too dry. And sprinkle the top with the Parmesan if you're using it for the last 10 minutes of cooking. Serve immediately or at room temperature.

Now that I've actually thought about this carefully, I like them both equally. Compared to some other legendary designs I've seen they're sleek and badass! Also it's interesting how Yveltal is essentially a flying Y, while Xerneas horns are crossed in an X, I like how Game Freak cleverly put it there.
And I'm agreeing with Jake :3, honestly Game Freak went overboard with dragon-type legendaries. I'm tired of seeing them making a return, generation after generation when there are so many more countless possibilities out there. Yveltal has the look for a dragon-type though honestly but I'd also say there's quite a chance its a Dark/Flying.
As for Xerneas, I'm actually not too sure :B. Originally I was thinking of a grass and fighting but now I'm moving onto more unusual combos such as Grass/Steel, it'd be an interesting legendary to see :B. What do you guys think? :3
and as the world comes to an end,
I'll be here to hold your hand.

Re: its Star Trek IIIs 30th anniversary!
Mount Seleya - where the actors were standing around - was represented, basically, by painted canvas, on the set! Like amateur night, I guess. And Nimoy - very wisely - chose to focus the lense on the actors as much as possible and tried to blur out the background as best he could, in-camera. The worst of these canvas backdrops was a sort of stack of blocky, boulder like formations going up the side of the mountain. It looked like a mural, it was so bad. Nimoy's direction positioned him in front of that, more so than the others, whom he chose to stand against the orange Vulcan sky. But how these things got agreed upon boggles the mind. The minute someone said, "we're going to use painted canvas to represent Vulcan" I would've fought against that. And maybe Nimoy did, but obviously ... they'd won out. Lenny didn't have enough clout, I guess ...

Re: its Star Trek IIIs 30th anniversary!
I wonder how things would have turned out if the producers hadn't chosen to replace the art department leads from TWOK, who dated back to phase 2, production designer Joe Jennings and art director/storyboard artist Mike Minor. Jennings is on record (and this is for TWOK) as saying it would be bad science fiction to postulate a whole new world with its own custom ecosystem and then try to depict that with a real-world location that has signs of man's presence all over it, which is one reason why he did Ceti Alpha and the Eden cave inside Regula on stage instead of on location.
That would suggest Jennings would have continued this thought on SFS and stayed on stage ... but I keep thinking it would have turned out much more credible. The Ceti Alpha set works in part because of all the atmospherics and in part because it isn't on screen long, but the main thing is it WORKS. In SFS, there aren't that many shots where Vulcan really works as a location (for me, the stuff at the college is good and the ILM landing stuff.) And the early stuff on Genesis doesn't work for me at all, especially the cactus that to my eye looked more like somebody threw a flocked tablecloth over an inverted tripod.
I have a feeling Nimoy would have taken Jennings input more seriously than Meyer did, too, out of respect for his bg with Trek.
I rag on Nimoy for the flatness of the direction on both of his films, but there are quiet moments that really work in SFS, like Kirk finding McCoy in Spock's quarters, and McCoy talking at Spock on the BoP, which is my alltime favorite McCoy moment outside of THE EMPATH and BREAD & CIRCUSES, even more than the euthanasia in TFF. I think Nimoy's attempt to differentiate locations through color was a callback to TOS in some ways (including how it fails at times), and on blu-ray it comes through much stronger, reducing some of my objections to his approach.
I just hate that he gave ILM such free reign for creating the style and size of all the bits that gave the film its scale, because for me that is where the StarWarsification of TREK really took hold (except for the genesis tape and the eden cave painting, ILM was pretty much just following orders and executing the concepts of others on TWOK, whereas SFS they were designing and even contributing story stuff, like the dog and the bi-plane game.)
My biggest objection to Nimoy as director remains the fact that he didn't fight Bennett over the many story flaws (I accept that Nimoy couldn't fight studio heads over his casting, that would have been too much - but Olmos and Prochnow would have made for fearsome lead Klingons, he was really on the right track with them.) Even Shatner managed to protect a sliver of his concept (but couldn't keep out the injection of forced humor) when Bennett and Loughery went astray while on their own on the TFF script.

November 27, 2015
LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - A fire that started in a home early Tuesday morning caused a woman to have a medical emergency that resulted in her death, family members say.
The fire started just after 3:00 a.m., at a mobile home off Eastland Drive between Loudon Avenue and Industry Road.
Corie Everhart says his mother, 55-year-old Linda Buell, woke up and lit a cigarette.
"My mom was lying in bed smoking on oxygen unfortunately," says Everhart.
He says Buell fell asleep and her cigarette caught an oxygen tube on fire.
"Whenever it did that, my stepdad came running down the hall and got me," Everhart explains. "I went in there and practically dragged her out of the bed, laid her in the hallway and went back in there and put the fire out myself."
Everhart says he used a blanket and his bare feet to put out flames that had spread to the bed and carpet.
"I came back out after I got the fire out and started doing CPR and stuff on her, trying to get her back, but she couldn't come back," he says.
Everhart says his mother had been battling COPD for the past five years and only had about six more months to live. But, he says the panic of the fire caused her to have a heart attack.
Buell was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at the hospital.
"She actually sat and told me just yesterday," says Everhart. "We were sitting in there talking and she said she was ready to go. So, she loved God."
Everhart also suffered second and third degree burns to his right foot while trying to put out the fire.

text: myatesThreads: 1Posts: 5Author: Michelle Yates Jan 10, 2009 #1I wish i had found this forum last week...at least i found it.Does my essay fit the prompt?The 18th century French philosopher Denis Diderot said, "Only passions, great passions can elevate the soul to great things." Describe one of your passions and reflect on how it has contributed to your personal growth.As children, many of us have dreams of becoming famous or someone who everybody knows or aspire to be. I was once that child who looked on the movie screen and said, "That should be me". Rather than discourage me, my parents provided a myriad of opportunities where I could explore my strengths and talents through a home school experience.My first educational experiences came literally from my parents. I was a homeschooled from kindergarten through sixth grade. Many would think that this learning scenario was isolating and overbearing but rather it provided a love for learning and motivation. My schooling was the world around me and I use it as my canvas.My parents were not hippies and I their love child but both consider themselves public servants. My father is an officer in the army (who is now serving in Iraq). My mother is an educator who now teaches in the public school system. Both believe (and in turn instilled in me) that there must be purpose in all we do. That life is a ministry and we must treat it as such. With this mantra in mind, I was educated remembering to search for my purpose. I did not know exactly what my purpose would be but I had the opportunity to find it in my school without walls. After our daily academic ritual, we would then take our education on the road. I would travel to art museums with my sketch book in hand, mimicking great artist like Picasso and Cassatt. I often visited the science center where I saw artists perform monologues as great inventors and learned about the discoveries of great inventions. I learned early that within me is greatness and to search as to how I can make the world even better.Now a senior in high school I realize I have a great talent in art, math and science. Through my art both I and others experience tranquility. Through math and science I understand the world and how it works. When I put my talents and natural gravitation to these disciplines, I see my purpose and peace in this chaotic world. When I walk through an old building, It excites me observe its structure and how the building maintains it strength. I notice its' fluidity and how the structure fits in with the community. As an architect, I will bring not only a safe reliable structure but artistry to the community. While in college I plan participate in programs that develop housing for the underprivileged. I would also like to live abroad for a year and do the same in a third world country. To understand the culture and build sustainable housing gives me purpose that highlights my talents.In order to fulfill my purpose proper education is a necessity and the University of Southern California has the reputation of developing great leaders and public servants in all of its' disciplines. If selected, plan to become one of professionals that the school is proud to have produced and I am proud to become.

Technical Abstract: In deer, the lesions caused by Mycobacterium bovis are primarily seen in the lymph nodes of the head, the lungs and thoracic lymph nodes, and the body nodes respectively. Experimental inoculation via the tonsil has produced a pattern of lesions in red deer and wapiti that is consistent with that seen at necropsy in field infections and at abattoirs. Antemortem diagnosis by intradermal injection of PPD in the cervical skin has good sensitivity early in the infection in red deer and wapiti but may fail due to anergy later. Antibody may not be detected at all in some infections in red deer but is a good indicator of disease severity. Some deer species such as sika deer and axis deer may have a different pathogenesis of the disease, particularly pulmonary infections.

Hamilton County has been killing people more often than Ohio counties of similar size, despite actually asking for the death penalty less often. Today's Enquirer takes a look at the growing opposition to the death
penalty in other states and recent legislation and task forces aimed
at either studying its effectiveness or stopping the practice
altogether. Prosecutor Joe Deters says he's going to kill all the people who deserve it because the law is still the law.
Would you like to pay tolls or higher gas taxes in order to have a new Brent Spence Bridge? No? Then you're like a majority of people who take the time to respond to Enquirer polls.

President Obama hooked up an 11-year-old kid with a note excusing him from class on Friday.
"He says, 'Do you want me to write an excuse note? What's your teacher's name?" Sullivan told ABC. "And I say, Mr. Ackerman. And he writes, 'Please excuse Tyler. He was with me. Barack Obama, the president.'"
Fortune magazine has taken exception to Mitt Romney's recent criticism of Solyndra, the solar panel company that went out of business despite a $500 million Department of Energy loan.
So last Thursday Romney held a surprise press conference at Solyndra's shuttered headquarters. During his prepared statement, Romney said:
"An independent inspector general looked at this investment and concluded that the Administration had steered money to friends and family and campaign contributors."
Romney then repeated the claim later in the press conference.
Small problem: No inspector general ever "concluded" such a thing, at least not based on any written reports or public statements.

Apparently, some Republicans across Ohio disagree with their GOP colleague, Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters.
In a motion filed Wednesday with the Ohio Supreme Court, the County Commissioners Association of Ohio (CCAO) seeks to intervene in the complaint that Hamilton County commissioners filed against Deters. The CCAO, which is a bipartisan group that has numerous Republican members, asks to join the case as a "friend of the court" on the commissioners' side.
Ricky Jackson was just 20 and fresh out of the Marines when he went to jail for murder in 1975. Authorities pinned the killing of Harold Franks, a fifty nine-year-old money order clerk in Cleveland, on Jackson and two of his friends, brothers Wiley and Ronnie Bridgeman. The conviction came on the testimony of a single twelve-year-old boy with bad eyesight and a confused story.
He spent the next 39 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit.
Jackson was released last Friday, the last of the trio to be freed after that witness, Eddie Vernon, admitted he made up his testimony under police pressure. Today, Jackson was in Cincinnati to thank those who worked tirelessly to help free him.
"I would have walked if it would have come to that," Jackson said to a packed house on University of Cincinnati's campus. "I wanted to come meet the people instrumental in saving my life."
The Ohio Innocence Project, which runs out of University of Cincinnati's College of Law, has been working on Jackson's case since 2010, digging for years to get public records about the case. A Cleveland Scene article in 2011 focused more attention on the story as well. Since those beginnings, OIP has played a huge role in getting Jackson exonerated.
OIP was founded in 2003 to investigate and litigate cases where prisoners have been wrongly convicted and imprisoned. The group is made up of UC Law professors and students who use DNA evidence, new witnesses, evidence of police misconduct, and other information to exonerate wrongfully convicted inmates. In just over a decade, they've helped free 18 inmates who were wrongfully convicted of murder and other charges. Jackson is the longest-serving inmate in Ohio to be exonerated.
Jackson's codefendant Ronnie Bridgeman was paroled in 2010, but Jackson's parole board continued to keep him in prison. Jackson says parole boards wanted him to admit guilt and express regret for the crime before they released him. The only problem was, he was innocent.
"I was on the cusp a lot of times," he said of confessing. "It seemed like, to me, the only way I was going to get out was to admit guilt. But there was a lot more at stake than just me saying I committed the crime when I know I didn't. That man's family gets no justice, I get no justice… at the end of the day I just couldn't lay down with that in my heart."
He passed the time by staying fit and helping run the prison's horticultural project. He ran a greenhouse, something he enjoyed immensely. Still, the time was wearing on him.
"After my last parole board hearing, I was really at an all time low," he said. "I'm running out of time. I'm 57. How much time to do I really have left? I hate to use this cliché, but they came through like a knight in shining armor. When I was at my eleventh hour, didn't know what direction I was going to take… these guys came."
Mark Godsey, director of the Ohio Innocence Project, says Jackson was steadfast in his innocence. He recalls first meeting Jackson at a recent hearing on his request for a new trial in light of witness Vernon recanting his testimony. Prosecutors were offering Jackson a deal — once again, if he would say he was guilty, he could walk free.
"He just looked at us and said, 'I don't need anymore time to think about it. I will not take that deal,' " Godsey recalls. Prosecutors soon conceded that without their only witness, they had no case. Jackson was free.
There are challenges ahead, to be sure. He spent many of his formative years — when most people go to college, start careers, and build families — behind bars.
The OIP is stepping in again with assistance. The group has raised nearly $43,000 to help Jackson get a new start. They're also fighting the state of Ohio to get a settlement for him based on his wrongful conviction. That could be huge — $40,000 for every year he was imprisoned, plus lost wages and other damages. But it's not guaranteed. Sometimes, prosecutors fight against these settlements. So far, the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's office has not officially acknowledged that Jackson and the Bridgemans are innocent or that they were wrongly imprisoned.
In the meantime, Jackson says he's not sure just yet what he'll do. But he says he's up for the challenge of building a life.
"It's not difficult at all," he said. "Compared to what I just came from, this is beautiful."
Connecticut will soon join the list of states that have ended the use of capital punishment.
In an 86-63 vote, legislators in Connecticut's House of Representatives passed the bill Wednesday night. The state Senate approved the measure April 5, in a 20-16 vote.
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, a Democrat, has indicated he will sign the bill when it reaches his desk, probably sometime this week. A similar bill was vetoed by then-Gov. Jodi Rell, a Republican, in 2009.
Connecticut's law is prospective in nature, and won't affect the sentences of the 11 people currently on the state's death row.
In the last five years, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York and Illinois have repealed the death penalty, according to CNN. California voters will decide the issue in November.
Other states that have abolished capital punishment are Alaska, Hawaii, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
Meanwhile, a man who spent 21 years on Ohio's death row until he was exonerated in 2010 will speak tonight at a forum in Clifton.
Joe D'Ambrosio will discuss his experience and why he believes the death penalty should be scrapped at 6:30 p.m. at the St. Monica-St. George Parish Newman Center, located at 328 W. McMillan St. D'Ambrosio will be joined by the Rev. Neil Kookoothe, a Roman Catholic priest who worked to get him released.
D'Ambrosio was wrongfully convicted of the 1988 murder of Anthony Klann in Cleveland. Cuyahoga County prosecutors withheld 10 pieces of evidence that would have exonerated D'Ambrosio at his trial and implicated another suspect in the crime, a judge ruled in March 2010.
D'Ambrosio is the 140th Death Row exoneration in the United States since 1973 and the sixth in Ohio.
This week's Porkopolis column looks at a report from Amnesty International about the use of capital punishment throughout the world, and how the United States is one of the only industrialized nations that still condones the practice.

Cal running back Jahvid Best will face obstacles this season that force him to prove he's worthy of being considered one of the best players in college football, even a Heisman Trophy hopeful.
The Gophers hope to be his first test.
'We have to attack him,' senior linebacker Lee Campbell said of the 5-foot-10, 195-pound Best, who leads No. 8 California (2-0) against the University of Minnesota (2-0) at 11 a.m. Saturday in the second game at TCF Bank Stadium. 'He's going to run. He's going to try to find cutback lanes. We've got to come downhill and attack.'
In Week 1, the Gophers overcame the unknown against a former basketball player, Greg Paulus, starting at quarterback for Syracuse. In Week 2, they faced Air Force's unorthodox triple-option offense, something no other U opponent will run this season.
There won't be a more explosive offensive player the Gophers see the rest of the season than Best, who rushed for 1,580 yards and 15 touchdowns as a sophomore in 2008.
The Vallejo, Calif., native ranks fifth in the nation with 281 rushing yards and four touchdowns through two games, doing it on just 27 carries (10.4 yards per carry). He is No. 3 on ESPN.com's Heisman Watch list behind former Heisman winner and Florida quarterback Tim Tebow and Texas quarterback Colt McCoy.
"Within the course of the game, if he puts up those numbers, then we're excited about that," Cal running backs coach Ron Gould said.
How does Minnesota's defense avoid being a steppingstone for Best in the Heisman race?
"You're talking about a Heisman Trophy-caliber back that can go 99 yards for a touchdown against anybody, not just against Minnesota," Gophers linebackers coach John Butler said. "He's got ridiculous speed. Our kids know that. They've been studying him. They know we have a plan. But to defend a guy like him, it's not (about) one guy; it's 11. But if one guy gets out of his gap, if one guy does what he's not supposed to do, he'll find it — then he's gone."
Best hasn't been shut down since Southern California held him to 30 yards on 13 carries last season. Maryland limited him to 25 yards in 10 carries a year ago, while tackling Best so violently on a screen pass that he was seen vomiting on the field in a classic YouTube video.
Best was able to laugh at the clip, telling reporters, "It's rare to see somebody do that." Of course, that was after he gained revenge against the Terrapins two weeks ago, rushing for 137 yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries in a 52-13 blowout victory.
The Golden Bears, who have outscored their first two opponents 111-20, focus on establishing the run with Best, freshman Covaughn DeBoskie-Johnson and sophomore Shane Vereen. But they also are capable of throwing the ball, thanks in part to Best's presence.
"Their play-action pass game is absolutely dynamic," Gophers coach Tim Brewster said, "because they can hand the ball off to a guy that's maybe the fastest guy in America. I think he's a national sprint champ. He's got size, he's got tremendous speed."
Brewster, an assistant coach at Texas when running back Ricky Williams won the Heisman Trophy in 1998, called Best "that kind of back," with similar power and speed.
The last Heisman Trophy winner the Gophers faced was Ohio State quarterback Troy Smith, who had 221 total yards and two touchdowns in the Buckeyes' 44-0 win in Columbus in 2006. Before that, Minnesota held Wisconsin's Heisman Trophy-winning tailback Ron Dayne to 80 yards rushing in a 20-17 loss at the Metrodome in 1999.
"I think you'd have to include him in the conversation, you know, based on the numbers that he had last year and the numbers that he'll put up this year," Brewster said about Best. "He's just like a wide receiver when he's split out, and so he's a very multidimensional player. He's a tremendous threat. You've got to understand where he's at all times."
That's a message the Gophers are hearing from Brewster all week.
"He's a great player, but I think we have a great defense," Gophers junior safety Kim Royston said. "It's a challenge that we're definitely prepared to seek out. I don't think one player can beat our defense."

A couple of months ago I bought a third-party zoom lens* cheap (28-70 made by Vitacon) with the knowledge that the AF wasn't working and that it would have to be used as a manual lens.
Ok, fine.
When I looked closer, I discovered that one of the CPU pins was missing, so I got my soldering iron out and put in a replacement. Ok, so now my F4 recognises it as a lens with a CPU (and can therefore be used in P or S modes), but the AF doesn't work. Not a problem, it could always be used as a manual lens at a pinch.
Fast-forward to a couple of days ago when I got an F90x. Bizarrely, the lens works as an AF lens for this camera.
I am slightly surprised by this, and didn't realise that the CPU communication would be different... is it just because the lens is from a cheap third-party, or is my F4 faulty in some way? (incidentally other Nikon AF lenses work perfectly with both cameras)
Just odd, that's all
* I was going to use it as a donor for the lens mount.

Her lawyers have graphic details of Phillips forcing himself sexually, and Phillips' lawyers are denying little of it, claiming "consensual" contact between adults.For those of us in the Christian homeschool community, this is just as bad as guilty.

Premise: Robin Harris tries to impress the object of his affection, a girlfriend named Jamika, by caring for her son and the children of her friend Bebe. The children present a challenge for Robin by being the most obnoxious, ill-mannered kids he has ever taken care of.
How Can You Forget: "We don't die, we multipy."

Here are 9 ways you can have WAY more fun with your iPhone! Did you know you could do all of these things?
iScanU: This app pretends to be super high tech, promising to scan a person's face and generate a picture of that person 10 years in the future. Then after all the anticipation and special affects, BAM, a pic of a really old man or woman pops up on the screen. This will surely get you and your friends lots of laughs.
iFart Mobile (the #1 Fart Machine): Ofcourse you can't complete the list of iPhone pranks without the ultimate fart machine! And this, my friends, happens to be the number 1 on the market.
