Typically, a homegroup is created automatically when you set up a computer with this version of Windows, but there are several things that could prevent you from creating one.
To diagnose and fix common problems with creating a homegroup, first try running a Fix It wizard.
Click this button:
Fix this problem
Click Run, and then follow the steps in the wizard.
If running the Fix It wizard doesn't solve the problem, refer to the following list:
A homegroup already exists on the network. If a homegroup already exists, you will be asked to join it.
HomeGroup is available in all editions of Windows 7. In Windows 7 Starter and Windows 7 Home Basic, you can join a homegroup, but you can't create one.
You might not be connected to a network. To connect to a wireless network, follow these steps:
After you've connected to the network, you can join a homegroup if one exists on your network.
Your network location might not be set to Home. HomeGroup only works on home networks. To change your network location, follow these steps:
Open Network and Sharing Center by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type network, and then click Network and Sharing Center.
Click Work network or Public network, and then click Home network.
If you are on a domain network, your system administrator might have turned off HomeGroup completely, so you won't be able to join a homegroup.
One or more required services are not running. The Peer Networking Grouping and HomeGroup Provider services must both be running. Here's how to check this:
Open Administrative Tools by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type administrative tools, and then click Administrative Tools.
Double-click Services.
If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
In the Status column, next to the Peer Networking Grouping and HomeGroup Provider services, you should see the word Started. If you don't see this, double‑click the name of the service, and then click Start.

3 New Boulder Bcycle Stations and CU Buff Bike Rentals
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Boulder-Bcycle is launching 3 new Boulder Bike Stations at
- North Boulder Recreation Center
- Broadway & University
- Broadway & Euclid (@ the UMC)
Learn more in the Daily Camera
Boulder's B-cycle bike-sharing program installed its first station on University Hill on Tuesday and has wheeled a deal with the University of Colorado's Environmental Center that will add a station to the main campus later this month.
The forthcoming campus station -- scheduled to open in late August at the newly constructed Broadway and Euclid Avenue underpass -- will bring the number of B-cycle depots to 19 in Boulder. Earlier this month, a new station debuted at the North Boulder Recreation Center.
Now, through a campus rental program, CU students and employees can show their campus IDs and rent bikes for 48 hours free of charge, Smith said. But the B-cycle will be a way for visitors -- perhaps prospective students touring the campus -- to rent bikes, Smith said. The station also will be an asset for bus riders getting off at the Euclid and Broadway stop.

The bad news is that Venus Williams is still making more headlines these days for her wacky tennis outfits.
Yahoo! Sports and Foxcrawl.com first caught wind of a Venus Williams outfit mishap during an exhibition game in Milan, Italy. Williams had to run off the court during the middle of her match against Flavia Pennetta after the left strap of Venus' eleVen dress broke. She quickly covered the nearly exposed area with her hand thus avoiding a completely embarrassing wardrobe malfunction.
Yahoo! Sports reported that Venus Williams brought her opponent popcorn after a lengthy wait during her wardrobe change. Pennetta defeated Williams 7-5, 7-3. Williams and her sister Serena Williams defeated Pennetta and doubles partner Francesca Schiavone 3-7, 8-6, 8-6.
Hey, at least Venus Williams had a good reason to go shopping in the world's unofficial fashion capital, Milan. I just hope the nude underpants aren't on the list.

Patterson Hood finished off his two-night stand at The State Room Saturday night with a show that captured everything that makes him one of the most engaging American songwriters and performers of the past two decades.
Mixing songs from his solo albums, Drive-by Truckers' tunes from his back catalog, and brand new, yet-to-be-recorded works being performed for an audience for the first time, Hood turned his simple man-with-an-acoustic-guitar approach into a show as entertaining as an electrified Truckers gig. And the between-song banter and storytelling, as always, provided essential humor and emotion to the evening.
Saturday's show seemed looser than Friday's; at various points, Hood described the ribald proceedings as a concert version of the Smokey and the Bandit plot, "when Burt is off in the country, WAY off the road, and all hell's breaking loose." With boozed-up Truckers fans demanding to hear old favorites, Hood managed to satisfy them while still delivering plenty of his solo stuff along the way. He seemed to enjoy the challenge, bringing a bottle of tequila on stage and sharing shots with some of the front-row fans around mid-show.
Remarkably, Hood was able to refocus the entire room shortly after the boozy interlude with an emotional performance of the Truckers' "Tornadoes," followed by a beautiful new song called "Grand Canyon" that he wrote after the death of his long-time friend and Truckers' merch guru Craig Lieske in January. Hood introduced the song by telling the crowd about Lieske's life and sudden death, noting that the only time he'd played it was at Lieske's funeral.
Those two songs provided the emotional high point of a show that was strong from the start. Hood opened with "Depression Era," a song he wrote for 2009 indie flick That Evening Sun. "Leaving Time" from his new Heat Lightning Rumbles in the Distance followed, along with another solo tune, "Pollyanna."
Hood's first new songs of the night one he also performed Friday. On Saturday, he dedicated "If I Was Jimmy Page" to the folks from The Heavy Metal Shop, where he did a meet-and-greet earlier in the day. The song is hilarious, and Hood introduced it with a story about going to see Led Zeppelin flick The Song Remains the Same at a midnight movie with his dad back in the '70s. Hood loved it, of course, and the memories seared in his mind make up great one-liners through the tune, each starting with "If I was Jimmy Page," as in, "If I was Jimmy Page, I'd woo you with my voodoo." Or, "I'd do cocaine off hooker's asses." Or, "I'd wear those dragon pants EVERYWHERE." You get the idea.
Hood described the Jimmy Page tune as a contender for the next Drive-by Truckers album, as long as his co-conspirator Mike Cooley approves. He followed it with a song he was performing for an audience for the first time, "Grandpa Rock City," another funny song that he introduced by mulling over the merits of old rockers who continue taking their shirts off well into their later years. (The Hood verdict? Okay if you're Iggy Pop, but not if you'r Roger Daltrey.)
Among the other highlights Saturday night: a take on his Truckers' song "Goode's Field Road," a massive singalong to Truckers' oldie "Steve McQueen," the title track of Heat Lightning in the Distance, a killer version of the Truckers' "Sinkhole," "The Buford Stick" and "Better Than the Truth" from Heat Lightning.
Hood mentioned wanting to bring the Drive-by Truckers to The State Room to "blow the doors off the place." That's something I'd love to see. But it says a lot that Hood was able to deliver a consistently excellent show with just an acoustic guitar, a microphone and a stool. Oh, and that bottle of Patron didn't hurt.

Job searchers, book lovers, info seekers – whoever you are, you belong @ your library!® National Library Week, celebrated April 8-14, is the perfect time to explore everything Broward County Library has to offer. Today's libraries provide a wide range of opportunities for people with diverse needs and interests, offering information, education, recreation and so much more.
What do you do at your library? According to a recent survey from the American Library Association, plenty! While the recent recession may have come to an end, the survey found that Americans continue to turn to their local libraries for help finding a job or launching a business. Even with libraries facing budget cuts, more than two-thirds of the 1,000 adults surveyed said the library's assistance in finding a job or starting a business was important to them. Not surprisingly, the use of public computers at the library continues to increase and the availability of wireless Internet in public libraries across the U.S. is approaching 85%. More and more public libraries – almost two-thirds, including Broward County Library – offer eBooks, showing that electronic library services are here to stay.
In keeping with this trend, Broward County Library has launched a mobile app, BCL WoW – Broward County Library Without Walls, that allows customers to access their library account, search the catalog, place holds, find your nearest library, check library events and more all from their smart phone. Additionally, Broward County Library is expanding its electronic services beyond the traditional library walls, offering free books and access to library services via signs with QR codes in downtown Fort Lauderdale's Central Bus Terminal.
Celebrating National Library Week
Want to celebrate National Library Week with us? Here's Broward County Library's schedule of National Library Week events, including fun activities for "Drop Everything and Read (D.E.A.R.) Day," on April 12:
Famous Librarians throughout History
What do Chairman Mao and legendary lover Casanova have in common? Each of them, at some point in their life, was a librarian. Here's a list of other famous folks that pursued a career in the library:
Reel Life at the Library: Movies with Libraries or Librarians in Starring Roles
Desk Set: (1957) Spencer Tracy is hired to install a computer in the Reference Department of a television network. The librarians (played by Katharine Hepburn, Joan Blondell, Dina Merrill and Sue Randall) though single women, are knowledgeable, capable and efficient professionals.
Foul Play: (1978). Goldie Hawn is a librarian pursued by Chevy Chase, a detective. While quite alluring at the party in the opening scene, she's dressed in contrast to how she looks when she goes to work in her sensible shoes.
The Gun in Betty Lou's Handbag: (1992). Betty Lou (Penelope Ann Miller) is a young and attractive, but mousy, librarian whose husband, a police detective, takes her for granted. After a gangland figure is mysteriously murdered in town, she finds the murder weapon but can't get anyone's attention to tell them. In a fit of frustration, she fires the gun in a restroom. When taken to the police station she insists she is the murderer. It has the desired effect: people do pay attention to her.
Major League: (1989). Although much of this film takes place on the field, love interest Rene Russo is a young, beautiful librarian. We are even told that she has a master's degree, an unusual admission for a movie librarian, and a license plate that says "READ."
The Mummy: (1999). Rachel Weisz plays a young Egyptologist and librarian in Cairo in the 1920s who becomes involved in a dangerous, action-packed (and ultimately romantic) adventure to kill the mummy that has returned to take his revenge on the world.
Music Man: (1962). Shirley Jones plays Marian Paroo ("Marian the Librarian") of the River City, Iowa, Public Library who makes available scandalous materials such as the works of Balzac and Chaucer, and sings while she stamps books slips.

Paving The Way
Looking Beyond, a local organization dedicated to helping the lives of children with special needs, hosted its 15th annual gala at the Beverly Hills Hotel. The inspiring afternoon attracted a number of Los Angeles' leading philanthropic ladies, including event chair Sepideh Nourafshan, board member Angella Nazarian and Beverly Hills Mayor Lili Bosse. Guests were treated to silent and live auctions before a delicious meal in the ballroom, which was masterfully transformed by event planner Kevin Lee. But the real star of the afternoon was Soaring Spirit Award winner Rion Paige, a 13-year-old X Factor finalist who is living with a rare condition of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita. Paige performed a stirring three-song set that showcased her remarkable talents, bringing everyone in the room to tears. -Photos by Emad asfoury, La CoLor Studio

Estimated Standard Shipping Delivery Dates
Chances are good that you've already seen them. Stink bugs are an agricultural pest and a home-invading nuisance. The annoying, shield-shaped brown bugs hitched a ride to the US in cargo shipments from Asia in the late 90s, and now – thanks to their proclivity for procreating four times a year and the absence of natural predators – they've spread to 33 states.
What makes them so annoying to homeowners is their tendency to move in when it gets cold. While it's true that they don't bite, sting, or do damage to your home like termites will, and they don't breed at the time of year when they're seeking cover, most folks still balk at the idea of sharing living quarters with hundreds of prehistoric-looking insects.
Even worse, they stink.
While you can grab up the occasional ant or spider with a paper towel or napkin, crushing a stink bug in such a way releases its primary defense mechanism – a liquid toxin with an offensive smell - a powerful odor that will bring even more of these menacing insects your way. In fact, just chasing them can have the same result.
The Science of Stopping Stink Bugs
Unfortunately, getting rid of stink bugs isn't so easy. Stepping on them is out, and exterminators report that common pesticides don't work. So how do you get rid of these creepy critters?
The best way to get rid of stink bugs from your home is keep them from getting in, so make sure your house is properly sealed. Before the nights start to get cold in late fall, check the outside of your house carefully for cracks or holes the bugs can use to gain access. Put screens on all windows and doors that don't already have them. For those that do, be sure they don't have any holes. Also, don't leave any unnecessary lights on, as stink bugs, like other flying insects, are attracted to light.
Suck Them Up
Not just for eliminating dirt and cobwebs anymore, vacuum cleaners are very effective when it comes to sucking stink bugs out of their hiding places without crushing them. A bagless vac won't cut it, though – use a vacuum cleaner with a bag, then, once you've vacuumed the bugs up, immediately seal the bag and take it somewhere far away. You may crush the bugs in the bag once the bag is sealed, but be sure you don't do it in the house! Our Stink Bug Chute is another great way to pick them up without crushing or touching them.
Soap And Water
Are stink bugs gobbling up your ornamental trees and shrubs? An effective way of removing them from your plant life is to shake leaves so the bugs fall off into a bucket of soapy water. The soapy water prevents them from flying away.
Potent Problem, Powerful Solution
Most pesticides won't easily penetrate a stink bug's tough exterior, but some chemicals have been proven to be helpful in controlling stink bugs. These include pyrethrum foggers, deltamethrin, cypermethrin and cyfluthrium. A non-chemical alternative that has been reported to work is diatomaceous. The effectiveness of these agents may be improved through use of a "spreader sticker." Spreader stickers improve the performance of insecticides by helping them to penetrate and stick to the insects.
If you choose this route, plan to do it during the fall, before the stink bugs start to migrate indoors. Use a sprayer to spray the surrounding area as well as the outside of your home. Spray the treatment up as high as you can outside your house and allow it to drip down for complete and thorough coverage. A well-sprayed structure will provide an invisible wall of defense that the stink bugs will not be able to penetrate. Most homes will require two to three gallons of the treatment to get good coverage, so it's up to you whether it is worth it to have added protection from stink bugs.
Call In Reinforcements
When all else fails, and there's just too many of the critters for you to handle, it might be time to call in a professional. A certified pest controller will be able to fully protect your house from the pests by securing all the common places through which they usually enter. They may also know of techniques to better control the control stink bugs.
Our Stink Bug Trap To The RESCUE! ®
Made in the USA, the RESCUE! ® Stink Bug Trap is designed to work outdoors, capturing stink bugs before they ruin your garden or get in your home. The reusable trap comes with two, one-week supplies of a pheromone attractant that lures stink bugs in while remaining odor-free to people. Refills are available so you can maintain a stink bug-free environment all season long.
Worried the Stink Bug Trap will attract stink bugs to your yard? Don't be – it works only to catch those stink bugs within a 20-foot radius, so only the bugs that were already in your yard and garden will be drawn in, trapping them before they damage your garden or invade your home. Nor will the Stink Bug Trap capture those bugs that are beneficial to your garden. Safe and affordable, the Stink Bug Trap is an easier answer to controlling your stink bug problem.

Reviews for Crispy Buffalo Chicken Roll-Ups
"Great taste! Although, they were really messy when I tried to roll them up. I think next time I will just cut a pocket into the chicken breast to put the cheese in instead. But overall they tasted fantastic."
"This was so tasty and easy! I used Texas Pete hot sauce and also panko bread crumbs, because I didn't have corn flakes. My daughter, who loves buffalo chicken everything, was home from college for the week-end and loved it!!! Even my husband who does not like overly spicy commented how tasty it was! I had no problem dipping the roll-ups in the hot sauce and mayo (which I whisked together & was soupy enough) then into the panko crumbs. Cooked for 40 minutes & used thermometer! Awesome, love those quick and easy recipes that make it seem like I slaved over a hot stove for hours."
"Really good! I didn't have cornflakes, so I substituted panko breadcrumbs. Another reviewer said they were dry...try cutting down a bit on the baking time and test with a thermometer. Will definitely make these again."
"Wow! This is one of those rare recipes that the whole family loved. This will definitely be going in the "favorites" section of my recipe box!"
"I made this for my husband and mother-in-law. Both HATED the blue cheese and ended up scraping it all off! They said it would probably be a LOT better with a different cheese."

Claire Danes
Manhattan, New York
"I have a huge, active imagination, [and] I think I'm really scared of being alone; because if I'm left to my own devices, I'll just turn into a madwoman." -Claire Danes
Claire achieved quick fame (and a Golden Globe) in her teens by starring in the short-lived TV series My So-Called Life, which she followed with a string of high-profile turns in mid-'90s films such as Little Women, U Turn and Romeo and Juliet. She's also starred in The Hours, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, appeared alongside Robert DeNiro in Stardust and most recently has been the star of Homeland. Playing a bipolar CIA agent, her excellent performance won herself a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Television Series.
Nevertheless, although her traits may keep Claire from fitting too squarely into one kind of sexiness, those traits are hardly drawbacks and have a sex appeal of their own. FHM picked Claire as one of the magazine's "100 Sexiest Women" in 1997 and 1998, so thankfully her looks haven't gone unnoticed.
Danes' fame has waxed and waned according to her public profile. In the mid-1990s, she was in constant demand, and, thanks to My So-Called Life and Romeo and Juliet, was especially popular with teenaged girls. When Claire took time off to attend Yale, her profile lowered accordingly. After a period starring in films like The Hours and Igby Goes Down and Terminator 3, Claire has returned to the small screen for her role in HBO's hit series Homeland, which has skyrocketed her back into the public's spotlight.
Claire Danes BiographyClaire Catherine Danes was born in New York City on April 12th, 1979, into what she would later describe as a "very creative household." Her father, Chris, a computer consultant and architectural photographer, and her mother, Carla, a painter and teacher, first met at the Rhode Island School of Design. Both Claire's parents encouraged her participation in the arts at an early age. Claire also has a brother, Asa, six years her elder, who is a graduate of Oberlin College in Ohio and works for a non-profit organization.
At age six, Claire began classes in modern dance, which remains one of her interests to this day. At nine, she enrolled in the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute. Claire's acting career began in "off-off-Broadway" productions such as Happiness, Punk Ballet and Kids on Stage, for which she choreographed her own dance number. In 1992, she landed a guest spot on the hit NBC series Law & Order, playing a teen model who murders her photographer-lover.
A So-Called SuccessSoon after the Law & Order appearance, Danes went to Los Angeles and was offered a part in Steven Spielberg's 1993 masterpiece, Schindler's List. However, Claire turned the role down because the production, set to shoot on location in Poland, could not arrange a tutor for her. Spurning such an opportunity might have been disastrous for a lesser talent, but Claire's next project ended up catapulting her to fame. She was cast as Angela Chase in the ABC drama, My So-Called Life.
The series -- the critics' darling and the subject of a small but devoted fan following -- was inexplicably canceled after a single season, despite its four Emmy nominations. One of these went to Claire, who lost, but did take home a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a TV Series in 1995.
Star-Crossed StarThe praise and attention that came from My So-Called Life jump-started Danes' film career. In 1994, she appeared alongside Susan Sarandon and Winona Ryder in Little Women. The next year came How to Make an American Quilt -- also with Ryder -- and Home for the Holidays, directed by Jodie Foster, who became Claire's mentor.
After a few more small roles, Danes landed the part of Juliet opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in Baz Luhrmann's hyper-kinetic Romeo and Juliet (1996). She lent her voice to the title role in the animated Princess Mononoke (1997), and starred in 1997's U Turn and The Rainmaker, 1998's Les Misérables and 1999's Brokedown Palace and The Mod Squad.
She'll Be BackIn the fall of 1998, Claire took a hiatus from her burgeoning film career to attend college and study psychology. Her choice was the prestigious Yale University, where her grandfather had once been dean in the School of Art and Architecture, and where Jodie Foster also went.
With a degree in her pocket, Claire returned to acting in films, and it was as though she never left. After an appearance in Igby Goes Down (2002), Claire played Julia Vaughan in the multiple award-winner, The Hours (2002), followed by It's All About Love (2003).
She appeared alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger in the highly anticipated Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. A last minute choice for the role of Kate Brewster, Claire found it "overwhelming and disorienting" at first, but warmed to the idea of starring in a movie that was a departure from her previous work.
Claire continued to make the Hollywood rounds starring alongside the likes of Zak Efron in Me and Orson Welles and Robert DeNiro in Stardust.

Fascinating Discussion with Nick Gillespie and Patrick Byrne
At the Free State Project's 8th Annual Liberty Forum conference, a unique discussion took place when editor in chief of Reason.com and Reason TV, Nick Gillespie, sat down to chat to keynote speaker, Patrick Byrne, CEO of Overstock, in this intimate and fascinating interview.
Comparative Advantage for Economy and Career
This post originally appeared at e3ne.org.
All wealth comes from production and exchange: making and trading goods and services. The two are closely related: the more you trade, the more you're able to produce. How does that work? Through the magic of specialization.
When you trade, you're able to specialize in your comparative advantage, that is, what you can do relatively cheaply compared to everyone else. If you didn't trade, you'd have to make everything yourself: clothes, food, shelter, transportation, health care, etc. You'd be very, very poor. By trading with other people, you can focus on doing one narrow thing really, really well, earning money, and trading that money away for other goods and services that other people focus on doing really, really well.

Mover Story: Sarah Chamberlain
Community. The word always left a bad taste in my mouth. In my life, "community" has meant something awful, something dreadful. And by age 23, I knew that becoming part of a community was something I would fight to avoid at all costs.
I think it was just after September 11th 2001 when my confusion began. I was a theater major at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. When the towers fell, and the flags began to wave, I took solace in the sense of community I felt on campus. There, I was among people who seemed to understand the reality of what was actually happening. This was no War on Terror, but a war for profit; and the masses rallying behind it were getting swindled. It was tremendously comforting to know I was not alone, to know there were many others who had not fallen victim to this great hoax. These people called themselves liberals. So, I supposed I was a liberal too. Then, things began to change. More...
Early Movers on Education
Early mover Jody Underwood chats to Brett Veinotte, another early mover and founder of School Sucks Project.
Jody Underwood, Ph.D., is a founder and owner of Bardo Project and is one of the faces of Bardo Farm. She lives off the grid on a large property in New Hampshire with a varying number of people, depending on the season and the year, all learning back-to-basics skills. She moved to NH for the FSP in 2007 and is currently on the FSP board of directors. She focuses on K-12 education both professionally and as the chair of her local school board, which recently instituted school choice and included private schools as part of the choice (which is causing a stir in the state department of education). Her goal is to figure out ways to revolutionize education. More...

Shire Co-op: Building a Freer Community
MANCHESTER - Over the last year, Community Market Days (CMDs) have sprung up in Manchester. I attended one in January and left with a ridiculous quantity of food: several pounds of humanely-raised ham, bacon, two varieties of sausage, and pork chops from Bardo Farm; two dozen eggs; baked goods; and grassfed ground beef ordered wholesale.
I spoke with five members of the Shire Co-op to learn more about this unique organization. I spoke with Jessica Love, who moved to Manchester from Florida three years ago as part of the Free State Project; Constance Spencer, another Free Stater who moved from Alaska with her family less than a year ago, now also in Manchester; Jack Shimek, a 30-year New Hampshire resident who signed the FSP Statement of Intent prior to the selection of New Hampshire as the "Free State", now based in Milford; Kate Ager, a Keene native now living in Henniker; and Daniel Cuevas, also in Manchester.
SLN: Thank you all for agreeing to be interviewed! Could each of you tell me what your role is in the Shire Co-op? More...

At Under 4%, New Hampshire has the Lowest Unemployment Rate in the East
New Hampshire's unemployment rate is now 3.9%. That's well below the 5.5% national rate! For the second month in a row, New Hampshire has the lowest unemployment rate in the Eastern United States. Stand out cities include Lebanon at 2.9%, Portsmouth at 3.3%, and Dover at 3.5%. Neighbor state Vermont has the second lowest unemployment rate in the East. Employment is up and unemployment is down in the Granite State. In fact, employers are complaining that there aren't enough people in New Hampshire looking for work. Are you a liberty activist looking for work? Help New Hampshire employers by helping yourself.

No Raised Eyebrows Here, Only Liberty Forum 2015
Freelancer Livia Gershon writes a piece for VICE about the FSP's recent Liberty Forum 2015 conference.
"It's an early spring weekend in Manchester, and Emily Smith is sitting in the Radisson Hotel with her baby, selling goods from her northern New Hampshire farm. There are jugs of maple syrup in various sizes laid out on the table, and also guns, .308 caliber rifles, lovingly hand-assembled for improved accuracy. The combination would raise eyebrows in most company, but not here, at the annual gathering of the Free State Project, a libertarian movement to create a limited government utopia in the Granite State."
Why Paternalism Is Undesirable
Paternalism means forcing someone to do something, or not to do something, for that person's own good. For instance, a vigilante paternalist might go around slapping cigarettes out of people's hands. The government often engages in paternalism to deny adults the right to possess substances in their own home, to forbid "immoral" exchanges, or to prevent people from making their own decisions about health care, education, or other services.
The famous essay by John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, argues that paternalism is wrong. A person's own good is not a good enough justification for using force to restrain or punish that person – at least, so long as we're talking about sane adults. Instead, Mill proposes the "Harm Principle" to regulate the use of coercion, even by the government. The government should get involved in regulating people's behavior only when that behavior causes "harm to others." More...

Is Chiropractic Regulated?
Yes. All states and Canadian provinces require licensing for chiropractors. To be licensed, a chiropractor must have earned a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree from an accredited institution and must have passed a four-part national board examination.
Individual states have their own additional requirements and licensure limitations, and in most cases, a state board of chiropractic examiners oversees practitioners.
A chiropractor's professional responsibility to diagnose and treat patients and the range of services he or she can offer varies from state to state under licensure laws. Some states, for example, do not allow chiropractors to perform certain diagnostic tests in their offices. Some states allow chiropractors to offer additional therapies, such as homeopathy or acupuncture or the distribution of nutritional supplements, and some don't.
Most states require chiropractors to earn continuing education credits to maintain their licenses. This typically requires about 20-25 continuing medical education hours each year in areas such as radiography, professional boundaries, and clinical skills development.
What do chiropractors study to get their degree?
Students must complete at least three years of preparatory college work with an emphasis in the life sciences to be admitted into chiropractic schools.
Chiropractic coursework for the degree program of Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) typically includes:
- Anatomy, physiology, microbiology, biochemistry, pathology, nutrition, public health, and many other subjects
- The principles and practice of chiropractic
- Research methods and procedures
- Direct patient care
Chiropractic training is a rigorous four-year academic program consisting of both classroom and clinical instruction. This is followed by state licensure board examinations, which chiropractors must pass in order to practice.
Some chiropractic colleges also offer postgraduate courses, including two to three year residency programs in subspecialty areas such as nutrition, orthopedics, neurology, pediatrics, rehabilitation and imaging.

Franklin - Less than a month after voters approved spending $33 million to improve Franklin High School, district officials have begun the process to design and build out their vision.
If all goes as planned, early design details will be completed by February or March. The project will culminate in 2015 with the high school getting a broad array of renovations and expansions such as enlarged science spaces, remodeled corridors, a new academic instructional space addition and new main entrance as well as an upgrade in its mechanical systems. Also, the school will add an 850-seat auditorium as well as spaces for its visual and performing arts programs.
Another feature of the improvements will be expanded parking.
Essential partnerships
To get there, the district has hired two Milwaukee-based firms, Eppstein Uhen as the architect and C. G. Schmidt as the building contractor. Superintendent Steve Patz said representatives from those companies as well as district personnel are part of a core team. The group includes Building and Grounds Manager Mark Cloutier, Business Manager Jim Milzer, Franklin High School Principal Michael Nowak and himself.
"We are soliciting a lot of ideas from the school and the community," Patz said. "There is a lot of work that goes into making sure the plans meet our needs now and in the future. That's why we want to get input from a wider group of people. We are looking long-term. ... We need to make sure that the improvements will hold up over time."
Even before time-tested designs are in order, Patz noted that the plan must be approved by the city.
Though the district sought support from community groups prior to the referendum, Patz said, those same groups will continue to give input. One example is involvement by United Music Parents, a group that has a stake in the district's performing arts capabilities.
"Those groups and other experts will help us make sure that we are putting in the technical pieces like sound and lighting," Patz said. He noted the referendum message put out about the auditorium was that the facility would be a communitywide resource.
The district also is soliciting other end-users, such as teachers, who will be using the expanded academic space.
Academics, mechanicals
"The needs for instructional space have really changed," Patz said. "It's not just putting in rows of desks facing a teacher. With technology involved, we have to be able to move around and be flexible in how we use our space. It's no longer a matter of just sit and get."
Infrastructure considerations are equally important, Cloutier said. The school has 11 boilers and several will be replaced.
"The units are so efficient that while we may look at replacing five boilers, we may only need to replace three," he said.
Cloutier said he functions on the core team much like he fits into his district building and grounds role. He looks at the end product as being a legacy, of sorts.
"I can help the project because I know the building and I know what works," he said. "Teachers know what works for them and their students. That's why it's important to have a team where each member is an expert but also understands how what they do fits into other areas."
Dan Davis, C.G. Schmidt's senior vice president, agreed.
"We have a lot of experience in the educational field," Davis said. "Technology has changed how education is delivered, so we have learned how to build with that in mind as well as try to anticipate future technology. That's more difficult. No one can tell us what education is going to look like in 30 years."
Work adjustment
Patz said the work to complete the project requires flexibility among those who are involved.
"It is a considerable amount of time," he said. "We have to adjust our working schedules and environment. We may have to put off something we normally have done during the day to an evening or weekend. We are very excited about this. We're glad to be in a position to make it work."
The high school improvements broken up into two parts were approved 51 to 49 percent in the Nov. 6 election. Voters turned down a third part of the referendum, a proposed $15.8 million expansion and renovation to Forest Park Middle School.

Jamie Clark signs a new, four-year contract a couple months after leading Huskies men's soccer to its first-ever appearance in the NCAA quarterfinals. The much-traveled Clark, 41-11-5 at UW, says he wants to stay here for the rest of his coaching life.

SEATTLE – Jamie Clark has been places. Too many places, he says.
The son of a Scottish League player and now-worldwide coach, he has gone with his father and mother to Zimbabwe, where their family was accepted into the local Matabele culture.
He moved to the U.S. when he was five. He became Stanford's first All-American player while playing for his dad Bobby in California, then spent two seasons playing in Major League Soccer. A dozen years ago he moved to New Mexico. Jamie was there to help his brother, who was completing his residency in pediatrics at the University of New Mexico, begin a website. He got into college coaching instead.
He shined as the head man at Harvard (2008-09) and Creighton (2010). But now Jamie Clark aspires to settle down -- at Washington. His dream is to someday join the "Mount Rushmore" of Husky coaches.
He just carved another chunk toward getting there.
"With the quality of this city, its soccer heritage, this school, I see why Jim McLaughlin, Lesle Gallimore, Heather Tarr, Lorenzo Romar and the dean, Bob Ernst, have been fully immersed at Washington for so long. I want to be right there with them."
The youthful architect of men's soccer's three-season turnaround into its first national quarterfinals appearance in UW's history last fall has signed a new contract. It's for four years -- which for the well-trekked Clark may seem like 40. The new deal commits the Huskies to the 37-year old, and vice versa, through Dec. 31, 2017.
"This would be more than ideal if this is where I end up staying for the rest of my career. And that's the goal," Clark told me upon signing the contract about six weeks after his team finished the most successful season in UW soccer's 50-year history.
The 2013 Huskies went 16-2-4 with their first conference title since 2000. They ended with a first appearance in the Elite Eight of the NCAA tournament. They came within one goal on a frozen pitch from December's Final Four.
"As a coach you dream to be at a school long enough that your name becomes synonymous with that school," he said. "I've only made baby steps in that direction."
That's some, big baby. He's 41-11-5 at UW. Clark got to 41 wins in less than three full seasons. It took the Huskies the previous five seasons combined immediately before he got here to win 41 games.
And speaking of babies, he and his wife had a daughter here in November 2011. So Clark has indeed planted roots at Washington, and he intends for those to run long and deep.
"With the quality of this city, its soccer heritage, this school, I see why Jim McLaughlin, Lesle Gallimore, Heather Tarr, Lorenzo Romar and the dean, Bob Ernst, have been fully immersed at Washington for so long," Clark said, rattling off the most tenured and successful coaches in UW's athletic department.
"I want to be right there with them."
Terms of his agreement with Washington Director of Athletics Scott Woodward include performance bonuses if Clark's team achieves an academic progress rate (APR) of 980 or greater as defined by the NCAA in any of the contract's four years.
He could earn additional bonuses if Washington wins another Pac-12 championship, and for victories in the NCAA tournament.
None of that means as much to him as where he is now coaching. And where he always wants to stay.
"People care about soccer in Seattle. It's the best soccer city in the country," Clark told me when he first took this job, in the spring of 2011. "There's a passion. For our present team, there is inspiration to be drawn from, right in front of them.
"From a recruiting perspective, this is the best city to play in. The Sounders are an interested group. They come watch games. That's a party that cares about U-Dub soccer. You know, they want to know players. It's nice to know that they want to put us in a spotlight."
For the first couple years Clark cobbled together a team with veteran transfers from other programs. He needed proven leadership with big-game college experience, which few Huskies he inherited had.
"Since I've been here, when we first started that (2010) year I remember we were picked to finish last in the Pac-12. So I've really seen it come from the bottom to the top," gritty senior defender Michael Harris said in December, on the eve of his final game at UW.
Then Clark arrived. He changed the team's culture to a youthful, player-empowering one. He installed more playmaking to compliment a rugged, unyielding defense and extraordinary goalkeeping. That jolted the program into the national elite, to among one win of the school's first soccer Final Four.
The second-round NCAA win over Seattle University on Nov. 24 attracted an overflow crowd of 3,100. That was the most to see a stand-alone men's game ever at Washington. (An Oct. 22, 2000, match against Stanford attracted 3,280, but that was part of a doubleheader with the UW women's team meeting UCLA).
"It's pretty nice to see the turnaround. Everyone has a positive attitude – on the team and also in the fans," said Harris, who grew up just north of Seattle in Shoreline and had followed Husky soccer for years. "We are getting fans out here. Our community aspect has grown, a lot.
"I think that's the biggest thing Jamie has done for us."
After three years Clark has established the foundation of a long-lasting program: Despite their breakout national success last season, all Huskies underclassmen are returning for the 2014 season.
Cristian Roldan was the Pac-12 freshman of the year and Soccer America's national freshman of the year this past season. Major League Soccer has a program called Generation adidas that gives contracts and training to top young prospects for a higher-profile entry in MLS, and the pro league recently offered Roldan one of those deals coveted by players his age.
Roldan's told MLS he'd rather keep playing for Coach Clark and the Huskies. So one of the nation's best young players is back for 2014.
Forward Darwin Jones had a contact offer from the Seattle Sounders' junior team. Jones told the Sounders no thanks. He'd rather come back for his senior season at Washington.
Senior goalkeeper Spencer Richey was a national player of the year candidate last fall, until his season ended with a broken leg in a scoreless draw at third-ranked Connecticut. He could have pursued a possible spot in the MLS draft or a pro contract in another country. Instead, Richey is applying to the conference and NCAA for a fifth, medical-redshirt season with the Huskies.
And he isn't even guaranteed his starting job back at Washington. That's because Ryan Herman is returning, too, as a redshirt junior. Herman finished the shutout at Connecticut after Richey broke his leg and went unbeaten in 15 of his first 16 starts, with eight shutouts. Fifteen times in his 17 starts last year Herman allowed no more than a single goal.
Clark says that competition for starting goalkeeper is going to be intense this spring, summer and fall. Yet Richey wants to remain a part of what Clark has built at Washington.
"Everyone coming back is a testament to the team and to the program," the coach said.
This new contract is a testament to the coach. And word is getting around. Part of Clark's revival of UW soccer has been top-level recruiting. In 2012 he got the towering, 6-foot-7 Herman to come back home after Herman had spent a first college year redshirting at Santa Clara. The All-American at Mount Si High School in the Seattle suburb of Snoqualmie was a national junior team member who's been through the Seattle Sounders FC Academy.
Clark just signed seven players to national letters of intent for 2014. Three are from top junior clubs and the Sounders Academy in Washington, plus one each from Utah, Colorado, Minnesota and Canada.
Had UW found a way to score in the 1-0 loss to New Mexico in the NCAA round of eight in December, Clark and his Huskies would have met in the Final Four in Philadelphia none other than his father Bobby.
The former Scottish professional and World Cup player is now the coach at Notre Dame. Jamie left Scotland in fifth grade when his father took a coaching job at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire. He and his family followed dad from Scotland to Zimbabwe to New Zealand to America.
After two disappointing and injury-filled seasons playing in the pros, Jamie was out of MLS and seeking to start life outside soccer. In 2002, he moved to Albuquerque. That's where his older brother by three years, Tommy (later the head of Grassroots Soccer, an organization that teaches soccer and tries to prevent the spread of HIV in sub-Saharan Africa), was completing that residency in pediatrics at the University of New Mexico. Jamie, who also has a sister, Jennifer, was there to help his brother begin a website.
Jeremy Fishbein had just been hired to take over men's soccer at New Mexico. When he found out a former Stanford All-American, NCAA finalist and MLS player was in town, he asked Jamie to be his assistant with the Lobos.
So much for that website.
From there Clark became an assistant for his father at Notre Dame, then a first-time head coach at Harvard in 2008 and '09. He led Creighton in 2010, before Woodward hired him at UW to replace long-time coach Dean Wurzberger.
Despite the less-than-ideal timing the bottom line for Clark was that this opportunity -- with UW's resources, the Pac-12's competitiveness and this region's madness for soccer -- was one he could not pass up.
His first Huskies team went 12-4-2, finishing second in the Pac-12 and just missing the NCAA tournament. His 2012 Huskies went 13-5-3, despite losing all-conference attackers Brent Richards and Jacob Hustedt and all-league assist man Jamie Finch. Those Dawgs came within a goal against UCLA of the league title and won one game in the NCAA tournament before losing in the second round -- at, ahem, Creighton.
Clark's 2013 Huskies became the fourth one in the history of Husky men's soccer to lose as few as two games over a full season. Those other two-loss teams – in 1976, '77 and '82 – didn't advance past the first round of the NCAA tournament. Clark's Huskies won two NCAA tournament home games before losing in the national quarterfinals 1-0 to Fishbein's New Mexico team at frozen Husky Soccer Stadium on December 7.
"People care about soccer in Seattle. It's the best soccer city in the country."
He coached at five schools in eight years before he got to Washington. Clark, whose then-fiancée wife is from Oregon, still feels badly on how much he's bopped around. He regrets he stayed just that single season at Creighton. He went 13-5-2 there and won the Missouri Valley Conference, advancing to the second round of the NCAA tournament.
He brought it up, unsolicited, in talking about what this new contract means to him. It sounded as if that regret helps fuel his desire to stay here for the rest of his coaching career.
"That short stint at Creighton, that is not one any coach would be proud of," he said of not getting to see through most of what he started there.
"My family said, 'On this next one, you stay a while.'
"And we absolutely love it here. In my mind, this was THE move for me.
"Washington checks off every block for me: How they treat players; the administration; the institution and the education the players get; the awesome city."
But, as Clark said, "you have to make that happen" as a coach.
He absolutely has done that.
"You have to be successful. And it has to be what you thought it would be," he said.
"It's been both."

A woman with a high-pressure job as a partner in a consulting firm decided to quit in order to care for her mother who was suffering from Alzheimer's disease. After a couple of years of this, she suddenly moved her mother into a nursing home, got her affairs in order and committed suicide.
This is a most extreme example of the toll family caregiving can take on one's mental health.
"One of today's all too silent health crises is caregiver depression," notes the Family Caregiver Alliance [2]. "In general, women caregivers experience depression at a higher rate than men." Studies report that "higher levels of depressive symptoms and mental health problems among caregivers [3] than their non-caregiving peers" and that "between 40 to 70% of caregivers have clinically significant symptoms of depression."
Margaret Cook (*not her real name), is a 59-year old artist who cares for both of her elderly parents, which includes her mother suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Ms. Cook, who is divorced with adult children, has experienced depression and sought various treatments to cope with what she describes as "feeling swallowed" by her caregiving responsibilities. "It was consuming me so I could not see clearly and make good decisions," she said. "It's like being on ice and you don't ever get a grip."
Ms. Cook is on antidepressants, sees a psychiatrist regularly, and has attended support groups. "You just break into tears you're carrying so much weight and you don't know where to put it," she said. "A therapist can help you organize it instead it being this big mess."
Women like Ms. Cook can also feel like they are losing themselves as they devote so much to family caregiving.
On their website, The Family Caregiver Alliance states: "Caregiving does not cause depression, nor will everyone who provides care experience the negative feelings that go with depression. But in an effort to provide the best possible care for a family member or friend, caregivers often sacrifice their own physical and emotional needs and the emotional and physical experiences involved with providing care can strain even the most capable person. The resulting feelings of anger, anxiety, sadness, isolation, exhaustion—and then guilt for having these feelings—can exact a heavy toll."
Lisa Gwyther, MSW, LCSW, Director of the Duke Aging Center Family Support Program and Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at Duke University Medical Center in North Carolina, is familiar with a local group, "Daughters Concerned for Aging Relatives" that is made up primarily of working middle-age women. "They are caring for parents, got marriages, caring for kids, and working," she said. "A number of these women have come to the group and said they are feeling overwhelmed, they feel like nothing changes, they don't know how long they can keep up that pace, that they are failing everyone and not doing a good job at anything." Furthermore, these women report feeling a loss of self, a loss of identity.
It is important to first determine if you have depression. The National Institute of Mental Health [4] website, the Family Caregiver Alliance [2] and other reputable online resources offer tips. Also experts point out that even after a loved one has moved to a facility or passed away, there can still be a risk of depression from the caregiving they did.
Ms. Gwyther said that if a person has an inability to derive joy from any activity, is no longer being able to sleep or eat, and if these qualities persist for two weeks or more, it is likely depression. "There are successful treatments," she said. "Both drug and non-drug. One of the hardest things is to convince caregivers that they can feel better."
Ms. Cook said that she does feel better and knows she must stick with her treatments. "It does make a difference," she said of taking medications and consistently seeing her therapist. "It feels like I have my head above the water rather than below it. I can see where I'm going. There are hard times and sad times still, but I can navigate. It gets very overwhelming, but I don't feel like it's impossible."

Men's Track Wins Five in Final Indoor Meet
PRINCETON, N.J. (2/23/14) – In the final week before Heps, the Princeton track & field team hosted the Princeton Invitational at Jadwin Gym. The Tigers won five events on the afternoon - the weight, shot put, pole vault, hurdles and 400.
Senior Jake Taylor and freshman Jong-Min Youn went 1-2 in the weight throw. Taylor threw to 16.19 (53-1.50) while Youn reached 15.79 (51-9.75). They were the only two to throw over 50 feet. Junior Scott Rushton won the shot put with a toss of 17.43 (57-2.24). Freshman Christopher Cook was third at 16.80 (55-1.50) and classmate Jared Bell was fifth at 16.54 (54-3.25).
Tigers went 1-2 in the pole vault, led by junior Adam Bragg. Bragg cleared 5.25 (17-2.75) the only vaulter to clear 17 feet. Rookie Ben Gaylord was the runner up at 4.95 (16-2.75).
Three Tigers finished in the top five in the jumps. Senior Omar Jarrett was the runner-up in the high jump, clearing 2.09 (6-9.75) while junior Stephen Soerens was fourth at 1.89 (6-2.25). In the triple jump, junior Nana Owusu-Nyantekyi was third at 14.21 (46-7.50)
Sophomore Greg Caldwell and junior Rob Mohr went 1-2 in the 60 hurdles. Caldwell won with an 8.20 while Mohr clocked an 8.31.
Sophomore Dre Nelson was the top collegiate in the 60, finishing third overall at 6.93. He and teammate junior Tommaso Greenbaum were the only two collegians that finished in the top 10 amid a large group of track club competitors.
In the 400 it was junior Daniel McCord that crossed the line first. He clocked a 50.23 for the win. The Tigers then went 4-5-6-6 in the event. Sophomore Jabari Johnson was fourth at 50.76, sophomore Jordan Myers ran 50.99 and freshmen Greg Leeper and Bryant Switzer both clocked 51.07 to tie for sixth place.
Finishing off the middle distance races was a second-place finish by freshman Ray Mennin in the 500 at 1:05.58 and a third-place finish by senior George Galasso in the 800 with a time of 1:57.73
Former Tiger Michael Franklin '13 won the 3k at 8:26.70. No current Tiger competed in the event.

ZF-4057: Zend Loader produces a lot of unnecessary "file not found" warnings
The Zend Loader component will produce a lot of "file not found" warnings because it uses 'fopen' to probe the existence of files.
Instead of using fopen directly, why not use file_exists first to test for the existence and then use 'fopen' to open the files??
This should be an easy fix.
I think it duplicates ZF-2985.
We prefix fopen() with the "@" to silence such warnings; if you're seeing them, they're likely showing up in your logs or you have ext/scream enabled. While we'd prefer not to have these warnings at all, there are some reasons for them.
The fix isn't as easy as you might expect. Because this functionality is used everywhere, and because it may be invoked sometimes thousands of times in a request, we run into performance issues. Every stat call you do is an I/O call to the disk -- and these are very expensive. Add to this the fact that loadClass() and isReadable() are actually testing against the include_path: the result is that if the file we're looking for is N directories into the path, we end up having N*2 stat calls until we reach our file... if indeed it's ever found and/or readable. (This is actually why we use fopen() -- because it looks on the include_path. Unless you have PHP >=5.3.2 which introduces stream_resolve_include_path(), there's no other function in PHP that has the ability to test against the include_path without userland iteration.)
This last is also why file_exists() will not work -- because we're testing a file against the include_path. To use file_exists() correctly in this situation, we'd have to iterate the include_path and test against each segment until we got a hit, or all paths had been tested.
