More than 1,000 acres of land along State Road 135 in Greenwood will open up for development once the city finalizes a sewer service deal with Bargersville.
In court, Greenwood and Bargersville fought over land near State Road 135, with both wanting to annex land ripe for development in the unincorporated Center Grove area. The court battle went to the Indiana Supreme Court and ended in 2011. Now, each owns sections of sewer system within the other's boundaries. The land war, as well as rules and expenses related to sewer service to the area, have hindered development there, officials have said.
Greenwood currently provides sewer service to two subdivisions and several businesses, including Tobacco Road, a Marsh store and Louie's restaurant, within Bargersville. Bargersville's sewer system in Greenwood serves Copper Chase apartments and residential health care facility The Hearth at Stones Crossing, which weren't part of Greenwood until the court case ended and the city annexed the land.
Greenwood doesn't let development hook on to Bargersville's sewer system, even though it's less expensive for homes and businesses to do so because the town has a sewer main nearby. But to allow for development, Greenwood is temporarily changing the rules.
The city and town agreed last week to swap sections of sewer pipes to allow coming projects, such as possible Franciscan Alliance medical offices and a Taco Bell restaurant, to hook up to Bargersville sewers. Right now, Greenwood doesn't have a nearby sewer main for businesses to hook on to but plans to build one within the next several years.
Existing buildings Greenwood will get as customers include the Copper Chase apartments and The Hearth at Stones Crossing, but much of the land near State Road 135 and Stones Crossing Road is undeveloped.
In the meantime, Bargersville will offer sewer service to new customers that build in Greenwood so that new development can happen in the area. Bargersville should pick up the Greenwood customers within three or four months as part of the deal, city attorney Krista Taggart said.
Developers can't build in the area without being able to offer sewer service, so the communities need the infrastructure in order for development to happen. The communities also earn income from sewer fees that customers, including residents and business owners, pay.
The swap will give Greenwood the pipes on the east side of State Road 135, and Bargersville gets the sewer lines currently within its town. Greenwood doesn't yet have a sewer main in the area that can handle the sewage flow from the properties it will gain as customers, so Bargersville will continue providing sewer service there until the city builds the infrastructure it needs.
The city and town will take 30 days to inspect pipes, land and manholes and look at construction plans before closing on the deal, Bargersville Town Council President Ken Zumstein said.
The communities agreed last fall to negotiate so development could happen in the area and have been trying to work out a way to make the exchange as equal as they can so Bargersville would lose as little revenue as possible. The deal is of greater benefit to Greenwood, but Bargersville wants to improve its relationship with the city, town manager Kevin McGinnis has said.
Greenwood is gaining more paying customers from the apartments than Bargersville is getting from the businesses, homes and church. The city is letting Bargersville retain the customers on the Greenwood side and provide sewer service to them, as well as to any additional development in the area, for at least 12 months. If Greenwood builds a sewer main for the area before the year is up, then the city will pay Bargersville $8,200 per month until the 12-month period ends.

Ace Telugu filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli hopes to explore new avenues for his upcoming Telugu period-drama "Baahubali" at the ongoing 16th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF).
Rajamouli's "Eega" is being screened at SIFF along with other Indian films such as "3 Idiots", "JOLLY L.L.B.", "Murder 3", "Barfi" and "Pushpak".
"(I'm) going to shanghai tonight to attend the film fest. (I will be) exploring new avenues and territories for "Baahubali"," posted Rajamouli, who left Saturday to join the fest, on his Twitter page.
"Baahubali" is Rajamouli's most anticipated high-budget film that features Anushka Shetty, Rana Daggubati and Prabhas in the lead roles. The film has been in pre-production for months and is expected to go on floor soon.
Touted to be high on visual effects and daredevilry stunts, the film's cast spent last few months in getting trained in sword fight and horse riding.
"Baahubali" will be simultaneously made in Hindi and Tamil as well along with its Telugu version.

Unlike Jesus, my father tried to follow the Bible. So there were two ANGRY MALES in our house, Dad (Francis Schaeffer) and our Jewish/Christian "God."

Republican Victory Proves That Lies Work With White Evangelicals
The Republican Party base is white evangelicals. So no wonder the GOP lies about the country, the economy and the president worked. The folks who base their lives on religious mythology have spent lifetimes being trained to believe lies.

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.Rated 4 out of 5 by pinkyponk Good overall quality Very good looking and well made but with one flaw. My Honda Jazz from 2009 has fixing levers for want of a better word on both front seat sides of the car. The mats supplied only have holes in the drivers side mat. 02 May 2016Rated 5 out of 5 by Flards19 Good car mat quality.... But.. I am pleased with the quality of the car mats but I am very disappointed that the proper clips to locate the mats in the car were not supplied. Eyelets are included on the mats but the product was let down by the complete lack of clips to secure the mats in the car and stop the mats sliding forward and interfering with the foot pedals. It seems ridiculous that proper securing clips are not supplied. 03 April 2014Rated 4 out of 5 by Nishhi I'm happy with mats Reduction in noise is noticeable. And the quality of the mats is good. Only had it for few weeks so can't comment on the durability. The set comes without the fitting pegs (for the drivers side) so I've not been able to use one of the mats - as the dealer of the car did not supply the pegs either. Not a big deal I guess a couple of velcro (hook & loop) will do the job. I wish the mats came in different colour too. 24 June 20131-3 of 3

Anyone who wants to join me for a short hike is also welcome. I want to hike up to overlooks in Little Pine State Park, on Mount Tom and Gillespie Point, and along the West Rim Trail. It's no more than a few miles for each.

What's something that has, or still does, bug you? Is it hypocrites? Something you said a few years back? Something that the public does that gets on your nerves?
Elaborate and feel free to give a mini-rant too (but play nicely and abide by the rules, please!)
As for me, I just thought of something that may sound petty.. but it was back on one of the "America's Next Top Model" Cycles, where for one of the makeovers, Tyra Banks decided she wanted to give a girl a gap in her teeth.
I'm actually really enraged by that. That's not just a makeover, that is considered COSMETIC SURGERY. What the heck!! And then Tyra tries to vouch for "real women"? Oh come on, then she shouldn't pick a girl and then tell her she needs to go through cosmetic surgery to stay in the competition. Seriously. Cutting your hair is one thing, but this is a whole other matter. She might as well round up anyone tall and thin and give them all botox and boob-jobs!
Yeah. Your turn!

Hi,I am having a Kindle Fire ebook reader bought just two weeks ago. Due to some reason I need to format the device. But before that, as my title suggests, I need to backup all my content (ebooks) and want to restore the same after formatting it completely. Now as this is my first ever ebook reader or tablet (whatever we call it) I am new to this and I don't know how to backup, restore or format.
So, am here. I request you guys to please let me know step by step process for doing the same. Thank you in advance.

The German parliament has relieved Muslims and Jews by passing a law Wednesday (Dec. 12) that allows infant male circumcision for religious reasons.A spring ruling by a regional court in Cologne equated the practice with inflicting bodily harm, and resulted in charges against a German rabbi for circumcising a baby boy on the eighth day of life, as Jewish law dictates.

About Sapphire
HakkasanAbout Hakkasan
Hakkasan is recognised as the pioneering concept that single-handedly changed the face of Chinese cuisine within the United Kingdom. Since 2003, the Michelin starred London location has set the standard for Chinese cuisine and haute Chinois interior design. The name "Hakkasan" pays homage to the 'Hakka' people from the New Territories of Hong Kong while 'san' is the respectful Japanese form of address. Although Hakkasan is rooted in the culinary traditions of China, the restaurant's philosophy and cuisine are not chained by convention.
Background to the caseThe finance team at Hakkasan had been using a Sage accounting package. A complete ERP solution was required that could be used by the whole team to manage the business, with a proper purchasing process and comprehensive reporting functionality included. SAP Business One was considered as a potential solution on a recommendation to Alan Yau, owner of Hakkasan, by the Kuwaiti Food Group. SAP subsequently put the management team at Hakkasan in touch with Sapphire.
A full review of potential financial accounting and business management systems was undertaken and Infor SunSystems was shortlisted alongside SAP Business One.
Why SAP Business One from Sapphire was chosenPersia Morawej, Finance Manager at Hakkasan, explained that "Sapphire's help and advice during the initial phases of finding the right business solution was very good. The team were very professional, easy to work with and they got things done on time. We were given a really good overview and tailored presentation by the Sapphire sales team and as a result our Managing Director was adamant that we use them."
She added, "SAP Business One is a good fit for us as it is an international system; Hakkasan is expanding globally so we wanted a scalable solution that would work well in other countries too. For our accounting requirements the finance module can do the job as well as a specific finance solution - and with SAP Business One we also have the other modules available in the solution as standard."
Some of the key product features that made SAP Business One the ideal choice for Hakkasan:
- the HR module
- Fixed Assets
- the query generator – which enables the team to put together tailor made reports
- the fact that it is a truly international, scalable solution
Implementation and words of advice"During the design and implementation of SAP Business One the communication between the teams at Sapphire and Hakkasan was excellent" said Persia, "We had regular meetings and Sapphire personnel came in and supported us onsite. The process was very structured, it was all taken care of and we just had to do our role.
"The Sapphire development team who did the import services deserve a special mention – the development consultant who came in was extremely knowledgeable regarding SAP Business One, but everyone we worked with from Sapphire from our Account Manager to the Project Manager to the Application and Technical Consultants were all really good and very professional."
Persia also commented "We had very tight deadlines in place and in the end we did run over. We should have allocated more of our own time to the project and I would advise others not to underestimate the time required away from day to day work to get in a new system. Sapphire was very good though and was able to accommodate the overrun."
She went on further to advise: "Before you make a decision on which new software solution to implement, try to visit existing clients to see the system in action. This will give you an idea of how it would work in practice and will give you an insight into effective reporting. Do proper research and make sure you implement the right solution for your business."
SAP Business One in operationSAP Business One is currently used at Hakkasan's head office and at 2 restaurants, with 8-10 users logged in at any given time. There are plans in place to open further overseas restaurants and SAP Business One will be implemented there too.
"We are finding SAP Business One very good as a system. I would say that we could do with a bit more training in order to become even more self-sufficient. The whole of the head office is using it – we're very happy with it!" said Persia
She went on to add "Now that SAP Business One is in place workload has been reduced; we are able to get more done without needing a bigger team. We have integrated B1 with other systems that we are using and have more automation; for example, we used to have to type on sales results weekly, but now we have integrated B1 with Mission, our till system, and can import figures on a daily basis automatically – journals just flow in automatically, so there is no more adding of journals. The next planned integration will be with FnB shop, a web-based food and beverage supplier."
Comments on cost savings and ease of use"I would approximate that the implementation of SAP Business One will save us around £15k per year. When a member of the team left, it was not necessary to find a replacement as we were able to manage with a smaller team thanks to SAP Business One, so we have additionally saved the cost of an annual salary.
"It is easy to provide relevant information to other teams and reporting is quick and easy. We can also put together ad hoc reports whenever needed, on whatever information is needed.
"SAP Business One is very user friendly – I have used SAP R/3 before, which can be a bit complicated and B1 is a lot easier; it is designed for the whole company to use – not just finance, all departments can benefit from the various modules. Reporting functionality is a key reason for recommending the system, the query generator and the ability to easily analyse data is very useful."
A final word on working with Sapphire"The team at Sapphire are always helpful, they are all friendly and we have no issues with communication. Sapphire is an easy company to work with. Plus, the support provided is excellent, the support team is really, really good."
Persia finished by saying: "Sapphire is a very professional and target driven organisation. They look after customers all the time, not just during implementation, it is an on-going two-way working relationship. I would definitely recommend working with Sapphire to others."

Gourmet Rip-Offs: Tracing Trends From Chefs to ChainsBy Kelly Dobkin | January 21, 2014 By Kelly Dobkin | January 21, 2014
Much like the world of fashion, the food industry has its own trickle-down from haute couture to the $10 bargain bin knock-off: One chef popularizes a truly great dish that is copied to death by everyone else, eventually making its way down to the chain restaurant level. That's exactly how Sriracha and kale caesar salads became mainstream culinary icons. Here, we pull a culinary Malcolm Gladwell - and explore the real roots of America's trendiest chain restaurant dishes. In some cases, finding one true inventor of a popular dish is hard, so we give props to a few different chefs. Let us know in the comments if we missed a key player.

Adaptation Finance
Reducing the vulnerability of local communities exposed to climate change by increasing the volume and effectiveness of finance directed towards adaptation.
Governments in both developed and developing countries are recognizing that climate change is already affecting the economic and social development of vulnerable communities. In response, national governments are developing policies and financial management systems to allocate and manage adaptation finance. Too often, the effects of climate change are experienced unevenly. Poor rural areas are frequently the most in need of financial support to strengthen their resilience to climate change. We explore whether national finance systems are designed in such a way that countries can access international adaptation finance, and whether these systems are effective for addressing the needs of the most vulnerable.
Our work focuses on building capacity in national governments to manage and channel adaptation funds to those countries that need it most, and increasing the ability of civil society organizations to hold governments accountable for this spending. We explore ways to improve the ability of governments to mobilize domestic funding sources and use innovative financial instruments to support adaptation initiatives. WRI's adaptation finance program focuses on two challenges:
- Preparing countries to access and effectively manage adaptation finance
- Ensuring transparency and accountability in the use of adaptation funds at the national and sub-national level
Our vision is that adaptation finance should be integrated into sustainable development for the benefit of vulnerable people and communities. We work with non-governmental organizations to strengthen their capacity to monitor and track adaptation finance from the national to the local level. These activities will make adaptation spending more transparent and more effective, leading to societies that are more resilient to the impacts of climate change.
Climate finance for developing countries to adapt to climate change and strengthen climate resilience has increased in recent years in the form of both international commitments and domestic spending. But there are still significant questions about the implementation of these funds:
- How much adaptation finance is actually available within developing countries?
- How is it being directed and used and by whom?
- Is it reaching the local level? Are the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable communities being met, and do they have a say in how adaptation finance is used?
To address these essential issues, Oxfam, the Overseas Development Institute, and the World Resources Institute – together with civil society groups in developing countries – are launching the Adaptation Finance Accountability Initiative. The initiative's purpose is to examine how climate adaptation and resilience finance is delivered at the local level, pilot new tracking and monitoring tools to improve finance transparency, and press for strengthened accountability for adaptation and resilience finance.
Building on ongoing work at national, regional, and global levels to monitor and strengthen accountability for adaptation finance, the initiative will initially focus on Nepal, the Philippines, Uganda, and Zambia in collaboration with civil society groups there. We will also collaborate at the regional and global level to share civil society lessons of adaptation finance monitoring and advocate for increased transparency and accountability, including with international institutions and donors.
Together we will:
- Develop tools to enable civil society and other stakeholders to track and monitor adaptation finance flows from a multitude of sources down to the local level.
- Identify institutional constraints to the effective delivery of climate finance to poor and vulnerable groups, and opportunities to empower local civil society to overcome these constraints.
- Support national and local civil society capacity to advocate for improved transparency, coherence and alignment of climate finance, and increased accountability to citizens for the use of this finance.
- Develop opportunities for South-to-South learning by enabling civil society groups across a number of Asian and African countries to share insights, exchange experiences, and jointly develop advocacy strategies.
- Distill lessons from piloting monitoring tools and advocacy to improve transparency and accountability in climate finance delivery.
- Influence global efforts to mobilize and manage climate finance, including the oversight under the UNFCCC, the operationalization of the Green Climate Fund, and bilateral institutions delivering climate finance.

Security fix for IIS Extended Protection released
Microsoft has just released a fix for the Extended Protection for Windows Authentication feature in IIS. The details about the issue are in security bulletin MS10-040.
Important things to note about the issue/fix:
- The fix is only applicable if you have Extended Protection installed.
Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 have this feature in the OS. However all previous platforms require you to install KB 973917 to get this particular feature. So if you did not install KB 973917 on your Windows Server 2008 machine for example, you won't need this update.
- The issue will occur only if you set Extended Protection tokenChecking flags to 'Allow' (partially hardened).
Your server configuration is NOT vulnerable if the Extended protection feature is not in use, i.e. tokenChecking=None, or your server is configured to a 'hardened' state, i.e. tokenChecking=Require. Your server is vulnerable on if it is configured to a partially hardened state, i.e. tokenChecking=Allow. In this state your server will allow Windows Authentication without a Channel Binding Token from clients that do not support it.

Stefan Achatz has been working with a vendor known as Roccat to improve their Linux support. Roccat manufactures a few different mice and keyboards along with some other gaming products like mouse-pads and headsets, but is not a vendor we previously have ever heard of. Their products also don't seem to be available at Amazon, NewEgg, or any other major American Internet retailer for that matter. They do seem to have some presence though in Europe and the rest of the world.
Stefan has already written a Linux kernel driver for the Roccat Kone mouse, which was integrated into the mainline Linux kernel. He also tells us that for the Linux 2.6.37 kernel he plans to have a driver ready for the Roccat Pyra mouse and potentially the Kone[+] as well. He has also written the open-source user-land utilities for these Roccat products too and those can be found on SourceForge.
These products do look interesting though they may be to not quite the same quality and feature-set as the latest Razer mice and their technology, but at least there's growing open-source support for their products.

I have no mechanical experience but my dad helps me sometimes. I have been feeding my car oil weekly for a year to keep it going. I don't know where the oil is going. It isn't leaking. When I pull out in first gear, dark smoke comes out of the exhaust, it then smokes a little less as I drive. It doesn't seem to be a constant smoke, only as I accelerate and gear up. Does anyone know what the problem could be?

First of all, I am definitely using .ORG and a Child Theme. I unfortunately cannot provide a web link but have attached pictures below.
I would like to find out if it is possible to:
1) Shift the primary menu up, to align it with the header image.
I did manage to do this by using:
#menu-primary {
top: -30px;
left: 300px;
However, the mobile version of the site would then move the primary menu waay off the screen in mobile view, so this was not suitable.
2) I also wish to re-position the title text of the slider (featured images) to the top-right hand corner and into a box. If this is not possible, whether there are any very good, free sliders that will do the same? I am yet to find one.
3) How to make the footer appear full-width.
I've attached pictures of what my website looks like currently and how I wish for it to look:

Thank you for any help, it would be really appreciated!

The host Boston Bruins rallied from a three-goal deficit and went on to beat Toronto 5-4 in overtime in Game 7 of their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series.
BOSTON — The Boston Bruins turned back Toronto's comeback with a rally of their own.
Trailing by three goals in the third period and still by two with less than 90 seconds left, the Bruins scored twice in a span of 31 seconds to tie the score and then eliminated the Maple Leafs on Patrice Bergeron's goal at 6:05 of overtime to win 5-4 in Game 7 on Monday night.
"It was one of the crazy ones I've been part of," said Bergeron, who assisted on Milan Lucic's goal with 1:22 left in regulation and connected to tie the score with 51 seconds left in the third.
Tuukka Rask stopped 24 shots for Boston, which led the best-of-seven series 3-1 before the Maple Leafs won twice to force a seventh game.

According to Elias Sports Bureau, the Bruins are the first team in league history to win a Game 7 after trailing by three goals in the third period.
The Bruins will play the New York Rangers in the Eastern Conference semifinals, which begin Thursday in Boston.
Toronto opened a 4-1 lead in the third period, but Nathan Horton cut the deficit to two midway through the third period and then Lucic and Bergeron scored in the final 1:22 with Rask on the bench for an extra skater.
"Anything can happen," Lucic said, "and that's exactly what happened."
Cody Franson scored twice, and former Bruin Phil Kessel had a goal and an assist for Toronto.
James Reimer made 30 saves for the Maple Leafs.
But it was the one he missed that left him sprawled in the crease, face down, while the Bruins celebrated.
"I was trying to be pretty even-keeled," said Reimer, who was teary-eyed in the locker room after the game. "There was time left, they could come back and they did. When you're up 4-1, you'd like to be able to hold onto that lead."
Of the Maple Leafs, Boston coach Claude Julien said, "They had us on the ropes and we're glad we're done with them. Drained is obviously the key word."
Hundreds of fans, if not more, had left in the third period and begged security to get back into the TD Garden after the Bruins rallied.
Rangers romp
WASHINGTON — Led by Henrik Lundqvist's 35 saves in a second consecutive shutout, the New York Rangers beat the Washington Capitals 5-0 in Game 7 to reach the East semifinals.
The Rangers won a Game 7 on the road for the first time in franchise history.
Arron Asham, Taylor Pyatt, Michael Del Zotto, Ryan Callahan and Mats Zuccarello scored.
The last NHL goalie to have shutouts in both Games 6 and 7 was Detroit's Dominik Hasek in 2002 against Colorado.
"There's moments where you enjoy it and you think, 'Wow, this is great.' And you have fun. But there's also moments where you don't feel great. You feel the pressure and you just want to get it done, so badly," Lundqvist said. "You try to control your emotions. That's the key for me. I'm an emotional guy when I play.
"I try to just stay calm. Good or bad. I just try to stay calm and focus on my thing."

What does the Pentagon spend to fight ISIS?
Bernie Sanders said that "less than 10 percent" of the Pentagon budget "actually goes into fighting ISIS and international terrorism." The purported fact-checking site PolitiFact rated Sanders' statement as "mostly false," based on the claim that the share of Pentagon spending devoted to fighting international terrorism is a fundamentally unknowable fact. But they could have asked an expert like Carl Conetta, director of the Project on Defense Alternatives, who said Sanders' statement was "Mostly True". Ask PolitiFact to correct the record >

Eczema is a skin condition caused by inflammation. Atopic dermatitis is the most common of the many types of eczema. While the word "dermatitis" means inflammation of the skin, "atopic" refers to an allergic tendency, which is often inherited. These eczema sufferers have a higher risk of developing other allergic conditions (like asthma or hay fever).
Typically, eczema causes skin to become itchy, red, and dry -- even cracked and leathery. Eczema most frequently appears on the face and extremities, but it can show up in other areas, too.
Eczema is a chronic problem for many people. It is most common among infants, many of whom outgrow it before school age. Read more about eczema.

Note This pattern makes several dishcloths. Black cloths are particularly nice for the barbeque chef -- they REALLY don't show the soot!
20 stitches = 4 inches (10 cm) in pattern. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size
specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be
sufficient. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is based on what
the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person.
If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller
size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Info for Alumni
Notes from the Chairman
Dear Alumni and Friends of Biology,
We have had a very busy year with many exciting events, some of which are partly responsible for our delay in sending this letter out to all of you. I will mention a few of these major events below.
Integrated Science Complex is Open: The biggest event was the move to the new Integrated Science Complex (ISC) which began in January 2015 and continues today. The ISC is the first new academic building on the campus since our founding. It houses most of the Biology research labs and faculty offices as well as research spaces for Physics, Chemistry, the School for the Environment and some Psychology. The labs are wonderful and are this new "open lab" style. Multiple research groups with common interests are located adjacent to one another with access to many common, multi user spaces. This style facilitates interactions among faculty and students working in related fields. It also allows us to expand and contract easily to accommodate the space needs of different groups. The overwhelming feeling within the Department is one of excitement. The ISC also houses new freshman biology labs and these too are spectacular and spacious. The students love these new facilities and these will most certainly help us maintain what I have been calling our "brand" in biology; provide to all of our students the hands-on laboratory experiences that they will need to pursue their choice of careers and to be marketable whether they aim at research, a medical profession, teaching, environmental or biotech profession or careers in policy. Come visit us and see for yourself all the changes taking place on your campus.
Best wishes,
Rick Kesseli
Biology Department

Additional Information
About Fondo EsperanzaFondo Esperanza (FE) is a private non-profit organization that supports entrepreneurship by providing micro-credit and training to people living in poverty in well over 100 cities throughout Chile. By providing these services, FE aims to improve the living conditions of the entrepreneurs and their families. In 2010, FE provided loans to more than 41,000 entrepreneurs. It utilizes a communal banking model in which groups of 18 to 25 clients meet on regularly and guarantee each other's loans. The members use their portion of the loan to create or expand their own businesses. In the group meetings, clients receive training though the FE Entrepreneurship School, which enhances clients' personal and business skills and ability to work in groups.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Though many IRA owners aren't aware of the pitfalls, the IRS is.

The IRS has since modified its procedures and is taking a closer look at IRAs. Read more...

One of the most anticipated developments of training camp and the preseason will be how much the Miami Dolphins' offense will change with receiver Brandon Marshall on the field.
We weren't given any hints during offseason workouts. Marshall's hip surgery kept him off the field, leaving us to imagine how he will transform an offense that relied on the run before he arrived. Will quarterback Chad Henne air it out more?
With that in mind, I revisited some data from ESPN Stats & Information to see where Marshall might be able to help most.
One of the numbers that stood out is the Dolphins' lack of pass plays that went 20 yards or longer.
The Dolphins had the NFL's lowest percentage of pass plays that went 20-plus yards. They recorded 29 of them total -- only 8.7 percent of their pass plays.
The St. Louis Rams and Seattle Seahawks had the next-lowest numbers at 10.3 and 10.5 percent.
You might be surprised to see the New England Patriots were in the bottom five. Despite having one of the all-time great deep threats in Randy Moss (18 receptions of 20-plus yards by himself), the Patriots throw to Wes Welker so often their percentage of 20-plus pass plays was only 11 percent.
It's not difficult to understand why the Dolphins didn't do better in this area. While Henne is known for having a live arm, his receivers either didn't possess the proper speed (Greg Camarillo, Davone Bess, Brian Hartline) or the hands (Ted Ginn) to be vertical threats.
The Dolphins had the fourth-lowest completion percentage on passes that traveled over 20 yards in the air. They completed 11 of their 51 attempts, or 21.6 percent. The only teams worse were the Detroit Lions, Seahawks and Rams.
Marshall should correct that, right?
Maybe. He tied for third with 101 receptions. But only 11 of his catches went for 20 yards or more (whether through the air or with yards after the catch), tying him with 10 others for 39th.
Where Marshall certainly will help is in yards after the catch. He's one of the best at that.
The Dolphins, meanwhile, were among the worst in YAC. Of all their receiving yardage, 38.9 percent came after a reception. That was the NFL's fourth-lowest percentage and only 4.6 percent better than the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the bottom.
What will make the next couple months fascinating is we still don't know how the Dolphins will use Marshall. We're familiar with what Denver Broncos coaches Mike Shanahan and Josh McDaniels preferred, but Dolphins coach Tony Sparano might have other plans.

Have not noticed the water tasting funny, nor has it leaked anywhere (that I have noticed yet). This was a wedding gift and I was expecting great things. It is super for 1 cup, but if you need 2 cups or more, or for cooking it takes ages. Because it (presumably) only boils enough water for what is being dispensed it then takes twice as long as a normal kettle!
The variable function is good so I don't have to watch it, though the downside of that is I ended up with a cold cup of tea this morning after forgetting all about it!
As other reviews have put, it's good (fingers crossed it won't leak) but you need another proper kettle for cooking.

The University of New Mexico Lobo Soccer team continues to build on their recent success both on and off the field. In a historic 2013 season, the Lobos became one of three programs to reach the Sweet 16 in 2011, 2012 and 2013. The Lobos advanced to the 2013 College Cup reaching the Final Four for the second time in the past 8 years. The Lobos finished the year with a 14-6-2 record placing the team as the #3 ranked team in the nation according to TopDrawerSoccer.com and the #4 ranked team according to CollegeSoccerNews.com. It was the program's 12th NCAA Appearance in the past 13 season, the fifth time the Lobos have reached the "Sweet Sixteen" Round (2004, 2005, 2011, 2012 and 2013). In 2005 the Lobos advanced to the National Championship game for the first time in the program's history.
In January of 2015, we had 2 Lobo graduating seniors selected in the MLS Draft. Oniel Fisher was selected 40th overall by Seattle Sounders FC and James Rogers was selected 52nd overall by Sporting Kansas City. The Vancouver Whitecaps signed underclassmen Ben McKendry to his first professional contract after the draft. Lastly, senior defender Riley McGovern, signed his first professional contract with Real Monarchs of USL-Pro. In total, 18 alumni currently represent professional clubs.
In addition to excelling on the field, the UNM Men's Soccer Program continues to achieve excellence in the classroom. The Lobos earned a team GPA of 3.44 this past Fall semester which was the highest the GPA for our Lobos in program history. The Lobos also received the NSCAA Team Academic Award for the 12th time in the last 13 years. In additional to team awards, Lobo Soccer players have been named Academic All Americans 24 times and NSCAA Scholar All-Americans 19 times.
