That's all for now. As always thanks for being a fan!
Hello Beautiful People!
I hope you are doing well. I'd like to start out by telling you about the upcoming shows for March:
- March 11th – at The Barking Spider (11310 Juniper Rd, Cleveland, OH 44106) 7PM sharp! Opening for Max's Farm. This is my favorite venue to play in Cleveland. Always a great crowd and a very respectful audience who love live music. The Barking Spider hosts free live 7 days a week
- March 23rd – at Kafe Kerouac (2250 N High St, Columbus, OH 43201) 8PM Columbus native Susan Hartman will be kicking the show off. This will be my first time playing at this venue. I hope all you Central-Ohioans can come out and make it a great night!
I'm also pleased to announce new merch! Finally the Hoseff T-Shirts are ready and available in all sizes in both Black and White. $15 each or $20 for a shirt and a CD. Trust me – You'll look like a pimp crusin' around in your new shirt while blasting Modern Gypsies out of the thumpin' system in your ride.
It's been a busy year for me so far. I've been hard at work both writing new material and booking shows. I have a mini-tour coming up in June that I'll be announcing soon. I'm very excited about it. I love touring! It's great to both meet and play for new people.
Finally, I'd like to give a shout out to The Black Keys for their success last month at the Grammy's. I've always said; "What's good for the Keys is good for Akron." I'd also like to send some love to Mumford and Sons. Their album, Babel, has become one of my desert island picks and since Modern Gypsies was strangely overlooked by the Academy, I'm glad that Album of the Year went to them.

- Gotta love the official bio for northeast Ohio gypsy-punk trio Hoseff, which claims they're the last living remnants of a 12th-century clan of gypsies who made their living providing live theater and selling trinkets and other stolen goods town-to-town.
(We didn't check, so don't automatically infer The Beat is attempting to discredit this claim.)

- The Akron three-piece plays a gypsy-blues style — a less punk, more composed Gogol Bordello. The band claims to be descended from Spanish gypsies, and they certainly sound like it

Do you remember all of the brands of canned goods that used to be a standard on the grocery shelves?
Little did we know that our favorite brands would be so short-lived. Lots of different items come to mind.
However, baking powder happens to be at the top of the list today. Do you remember Hunt's Perfect baking powder and Clabber Girl? What about Schillings, or Hills Brothers coffee?
Coffee – do you remember when you had to grind your own coffee, and it wasn't flavored? Coffee grinders were kinda like old telephones, a wall-mounted one or a countertop model. The countertop model had this neat little wooden drawer that the ground coffee fell into.

Think your friends might be familiar with this merchant? Ask your friends on Facebook to see what they think.
Cozy atmosphere. Little interesting on short menu. Cooked like the chef has never eaten good Mexican food. May be limited by poor availability of quality ingredients, poor use of spices in some dishes. Might have been a bad night, but menu needs something more adventurous.
Had a great meal a batch of Margaritas to compliment the style of food. Nachos as a free appetizer, you can't go wrong there. Will definitely go back. Service was great
Went with a friend & we had a wonderful meal, the service was fantastic, the music was just right, I have gone back 2 times in the past 2 months. I will go back again I highly recommend this restaurant

A pending federal decision to approve a new herbicide has 50 members of Congress and untold numbers of physicians worried for the health of children worldwide. Members of Congress and doctors are urging the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Agriculture (USDA) to reject a new weed killer, called Enlist Duo, as well as the genetically engineered seeds that would be used with it. Today (Aug. 1, 2014), the EPA was presented with a letter from 50 Congressional leaders citing concerns over the new herbicide.
Last week (June 30, 2014), doctors and scientists urged lawmakers at a Congressional briefing to pressure the Obama administration to deny Dow's application because of the known health risks. Thirty-five doctors and scientists also sent a letter to the EPA pointing out the flaws in the risk assessment and urging the agency to not grant approval.
Reps. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.) and Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) organized a "dear colleague" letter that highlights concerns they have about potential serious health risks linked to exposure of 2,4-D – the toxic herbicide that Dow Agrosciences combined with glyphosate to create Enlist Duo. Glyphosate is the active ingredient in the well-known weed killer Roundup.
The decision has been ongoing for more than a year because of pleas, like those in the letters, to reject its approval. In April 2014, the EPA said they were prepared to approve the use of the herbicide. Enlist Duo would potentially be used on millions of acres of cropland planted with a new variety of corn and soybean seeds that have been genetically engineered to tolerate Enlist Duo.
According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), the EPA's and USDA's pending decision to approve Enlist Duo for use on these crops would increase the use of 2,4-D in the U.S. by three-to-seven-fold by 2020. They also fear use of the herbicide will have multiplicative effects to children's health, the farming community and the environment.
The herbicide is being proposed to combat a problem called super-weeds, whereby GMO-crops have become resistant to the glyphosate herbicide. Enlist Duo is designed to address the issue. Gary Hirshberg, founder of Stonyfield Farm and chairman of Just Label It (GMO-labeling campaign, believes this new herbicide is a "three- to five-year solution at best."
In a press statement in April, 2014, Dow stated the following: ""In its review, the EPA acknowledged the significant scientific advancements Dow AgroSciences has achieved with Enlist Duo herbicide" says Damon Palmer, U.S. commercial leader for Enlist, Dow AgroSciences. "Enlist Duo herbicide will help solve the weed control challenges growers are facing, and will be another option to further reduce the potential for development of herbicide-resistant weeds." Data from late last year showed that more than 86 percent of corn, soybean and cotton growers in the South and 61 percent in the Midwest reported hard to control weeds on their farms."
However, the 50 Congressional signers aren't buying Dow's assurance of safety and scientific assessment. In the letter they say, "While they are often touted as a solution to herbicide resistant weeds, even the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) recognizes in its draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) that deregulating 2,4-D crops will spur the further evolution of 2,4-D resistant weeds and cause a three-to-seven fold increase in 2,4-D use."
The signed letters from both physicians and Congress calls out the EPA for disregarding toxicity tests in its risk assessment of Enlist Duo, even though the agency acknowledged "there could be additional toxicological effects (synergistic or additive) because of the presence of two herbicides." Both groups say the agency failed to apply a key safety factor required by federal law when a chemical poses potential risks specific to young children. In particular, EPA's assessment omitted the possibility of inhaling 2,4-D – even though that's one of the primary routes of exposure. Risks would be much higher for children in residential communities, schools and daycare centers near sprayed fields.
In the letter signed by the members of Congress, they warn that exposure to the harmful herbicide 2,4-D has been linked to "cancer (especially non-Hodgkin's lymphoma), decreased sperm count, liver disease and Parkinson's disease. Further, exposure has also been shown to negatively impact the hormonal, reproductive, neurological and immune systems."
"Members of Congress are standing up for the health of their constituents – especially children – by urging EPA and USDA not to allow Enlist Duo to blanket farm fields across the country," said Mary Ellen Kustin, EWG senior policy analyst. "They join more than half a million people who oppose this toxic herbicide mix." In June, EWG submitted comments to the EPA pointing out this major omission and other significant flaws in the EPA's risk assessment.

Meeting with my coach really helped me get through the week. Using the tools my coach gave me was beneficial to me over the semester, in everything from grades to my social life.
- Bailey Cunningham
It was great having someone to go to who was older and seemed to really care. It's one thing to talk to your parents and friends about life and school and such, and to gather opinions from, but it's a totally different thing when you get to talk to someone new and who sees you completely fresh.
- Amanda Tillman
Joining this program was one of the best decisions I could have made! My success coach was AMAZING! She helped me set goals and achieve them and was ALWAYS there for support. It was so helpful and allowed my transition into college so much easier.
- Justine Carnelia
Being a brand new freshman in college is scary. I was skeptical about the whole program and then I got to know my coach on a personal level. I could talk to him about anything and he listened without interrupting me or judging me. I am so thankful for my coach.

According to the March issue of Allure, these are the hot makeup looks for spring:
Lime Eyes – Sweep it over lids, diffusing it up to brows, or line the eyes' inner lower corners (this option is probably more applicable for real-life situations, eh?) Pair with pale pink cheeks and lips.
Mango Lips – Pair with gold shadow and bronze cheeks. Bonus: it looks great on ALL skin tones!
Peacock Shadows – Dust purple around the lashes, then over lids, fading toward brows. Trace teal-green around inner corners. Pair with matte nude lipstick.
Denim Eyes – Sparkly blue shadow paired with pinky nude lipstick or sheer berry lip stain.
Rose Gold – This shade flatters all skin tones. Wear it all over, or mix and match with rose gold eyes and wine lipstick, or rose gold lips with chocolate eyes. (Suddenly I'm in the mood for wine and chocolate…)
Orchid Pink Lipstick – More sophisticated in a cream than a gloss. Dark skin looks better with a more violet pink. Pair with simple eyes – mascara and eyeliner.
Watermelon Gloss – Low shimmer gloss, paired with gold eye shadow. The darker your skin, the deeper the shade.

Shortly after signing with Columbia Records, Miles Davis went into Columbia Studio D on October 26, 1955 for the first of three sessions that would comprise "Round About Midnight," his debut album for the label. Miles worked out much of the album in a pair of sessions on June 5 and September 10, 1956, during which Don Hunstein created this seminal portrait of Miles in full creative mode. The album's release in March 1957 ushered in a new era in jazz history.

The story was Kamal Hasan's idea and is quite fresh - good material for comedy. The story revolves around a group of imcompetant slum-dwellers, lead by Digamber(Vijay Raaz - brialliant as always), who take to kidnapping to raise some quick money. The idea is to kidnap a rich merchant's (played by Shukla, who also wrote the dialogues for the movie) son and demand ransom. But their plan is ill-fated as one of them is hospitalized for an appendicitis operation. The ill man's brother-in-law Avinash (Kamal Hasan) is taken in as a quick replacement.
Avinash is an ace motorist who rides his bike in the "Maut-ka-Kuan" (Death-well) and has the earned the epithet of "Mumbai Express". However, Avinash suffers is hard of hearing and is generally clumsy. He also happens to be an innocent youth who has his morals intact. Digamber, desparate to see his plan in action, convinces Avinash to join the team with his half-lies. -e1JMzaiI2Z0

You Can Make More Room in Your Heart But Not the Bed
Part of my parenting style has been co-sleeping. It was not a plan I had just what felt right. When B was 4mos Mike wanted to put him in the crib so Mike could get some sleep. I burst into tears and it lasted about 20 minutes. Around 10 months I'm pretty sure B told us to put him in his own bed. If you know B this is probably true.
A on the other hand still does not like to sleep alone. Which is a bit problematic since she also likes to sleep with the light on and the others don't. M and M2 naturally progressed and I think the idea of moving in with siblings motivated them so by the time they were two they were eager to sleep in big kid beds instead of with us.
But Little Dude is a whole different story. He refuses to sleep anywhere but in our bed. And he is miserable to sleep with. He talks in his sleep, he tucks his feet in my pajama bottoms, he does 360s, he sleeps on my head, he throws his arm over my neck…. all in the same night! Some nights in he will start in his bed but he ALWAYS ends up in our bed. I would force the issue but I have another issue. Little Dude isn't quite growing at a normal rate. He's barely growing at any rate. And when do you get a surge in GH production? When you sleep. So, I feel like getting Little Dude to get good night of sleep trumps where he sleeps and if I get a good night of sleep. I'm guessing some day he'll want to sleep with another person and won't want me around!
This post, Baby Sleep Positions, from DrMomma.org recently made the rounds on FB with images from How To Be a Dad.

Here be my Week 9 Rankings for all your rankings fetishes (sickos).
Ask me your start/sit questions in the comments and I'll do my best not to make things worse.
I was offered two offers by the same owner.
1st: My Lynch and Cobb for Charles and Gore.
2nd: My Lynch for Charles and McGahee
starting rosters: qb, rb, rb, wr, wr, w/r/t
My Team
RG3, Stafford
Lynch, DMC, Murray, Pierre, D.Rich, Dwyer
Wallace, Jordy, Cobb, Hartline, Britt
With the injuries to Murray and DMC I'm really tempted. I also feel it's the best time to sell Cobb especially since I only start two WR's. Which one if any should I do?
10 Team PPR: Eli, Cruz, Marshall, Wayne, Rice, AP, DMC, Gates. Bench: Dez, Bell, Vernon, Luck, Amendola, Beanie, Hanson, Hou. In 1st place right now, looking to make 1 more trade to keep my team strong. I was thinking about trying to trade Luck, DMC &/or Amendola. What kind of trade would you recommend I go for?
Who should I start, Denarius Moore or Julio Jones?
Maclin or Jonathan Stewart in standard scoring?
Would you take this in a ppr
i get welker & wayne for julio jones & wallace.
Cecil Shorts or Torrey Smith? Non PPR.
Julio Jones or Maclin, 0.5PPR
Que onda Chet! Start 2 wr, 1 rb/wr: Fitz, A Johnson, V Jax, Torrey, Maclin, F Jax. Gracias!
chet- pick 2, felix jones, isacc redman, andre brown, titus young
pick 2 broyles, celek, gresham, alex green…also pick 3 austin cobb maclin antonio brown
megatron or torrey?
Flex Randy Cobb, Rashad Jennings, or Felix Jones in non-PPR?
My thing is this, If i make the trade and give away murray for decker and Dez, im not upgrading anywhere, im just getting some depth, but i would still start Marshall and Denarius in the WR spots.
But, if I trade away murray and brown, i upgrade at WR right?
Given Murray's health issues, do you think i should still make the trade, and if so, you still think i make the one for decker and dez? please help ASAP! thanks Chet!!
Judging from your comments you just want someone to tell you that trade two is the best option, so just do that and shut up. Doubt you'll regret it.
i am a very reluctant trader and just want the best option. my initial gut was trade 2 but most ppl say trade 1 so im just making sure before i pull the trigger doe
Yo Chet. I was offered 2 trades for my Murray
1) Decker and Dez for Murray.
2) Julio Jones for Murray and Antonio Brown
Which one should I accept, if either?
My current RBs are: Rice, Trent, Murray, J-Stew
My current WRs are: Marshall, Denarius, Antonio Brown, Britt
Please let me know ASAP!! Thanks.
Where will Michael Vick be getting his points with both Maclin and DeSean out of your top 20 at WR?
I have J. Dwyer in a PPR 0.5. Been offered M. Ryan and Mendy, for J. Stew and Big Ben? Should I do it?
Hmmm, reports are becoming increasingly concerning about megatron's knee, some reports say he could be limited to 3rd downs. If reports continue like this are you still starting him over lance Moore in ppr league?
Yo Chet. I was offered 2 trades for my Murray
1) Decker and Dez for Murray.
2) Julio Jones for Murray and Antonio Brown
Which one should I accept, if either?
My current RBs are: Rice, Trent, Murray, J-Stew
My current WRs are: Marshall, Denarius, Antonio Brown, Britt
Please let me know ASAP!! Thanks.
I mean this one! haha.
Would you play Nicks and Cruz against Eli or swap Nicks for L Moore?
Help me on this one Chet! Im dying here!
titus young or pierre thomas in the flex
I traded for Ray Rice and now my RBs are Rice, Charles, TRich, MJD, Spiller and R Jennings. My WRs are Julio, Nicks, Lloyd, Maclin and T Smith. To improve at WR, should I make an offer for Calvin(last place team) or other top WR? Or do I leave my team like this and hope for the best? I'm currently in 4th place and top 4 make the playoffs. I don't need all these RBs but it's nice to have the depth. Thanks.
PPR W/Sproles out need Flex: Titus, Felix or Mike Williams..Also I own Dwyer & Felix .Would u drop Felix for Redman? Thanx
Why Stewart over Leshoure?
Start both, or start Nicks/Titus Young over one?
Ppr lg, Hakeem or G Olsen(1.5/ppr/TE)?
Rudolph or Olsen till AHern gets back?
Thanks Chet. I was leaning Titus too. Two final questions. need one more flex: Pierre Thomas, Stevie Johnson, or Heath Miller.
And this is for a different league than the above, but I need a bye week fill-in. Who do you like the most? Slim pickings, i know: Hixon, Hankerson, Donald Jones. Thanks.
forgot to mention, the first question there is for a ppr format, and the second question is non-ppr
Why Nicks over Maclin?
Not a sit/start question, but would you trade Cobb or Torrey Smith for J-Stew? I also have Rice, Ridley, Martin, plus D Thomas, AJ, Gordon and Hartline. Feel like adding one more RB would be smart. What do you think?
1 ppr, need a flex: Titus Young, J Stew, Kenny Britt. Thanks as always Chet.
Mjd for cj spiller? Current backs are mjd,Reggie,sjax, mendy. 3player keeper league. Thanks!
Joique Bell or Mike Williams at flex, ppr league?
This is tough because you'll have so many choices, but I need you to select one WR, any WR, from the entire league (except Calvin, AJ Green, Steve Smith, Titus, and Cruz) to get the most fantasy points this week in 1 ppr format. Examples include Percy v SEA, Demaryius vs CIN, Julio/Roddy v DAL, Reggie Wayne vs MIA, Brandon Marshall vs TEN, or Marques Colston vs PHI. Thanks.
Trying to trade Andre Johnson for RB. What is he worth? Who would you try to trade for? Thanks.
Should I start Matt Schuab against Buff, Eli Manning against Pit, or Jay Cutler against Tenn? I believe either of the 3 could put up major points.
Flex….d. Moore, spiller, fred Jackson, or jordy. .5 ppr
I need to pick 2WRs and Flex between: A. Green, Andre Johnson, T.Young, Nicks, Britt and Antonio Brown. Also TE between Celek, Rudolph and Meyers.
Standard btw
Assuming Jordy sits, Lance Moore or Josh Gordon
Need to sit one out of Cobb, Maclin, Antonio Brown, or Lance Moore, who rides the pine? Thanks.
Cam or RG3? I am playing alf morris too. Thanks
Luck,r. Jennings, spiller, and t. Smith for cam newton and Brandon Marshall. Which side do you like?
Who is a better flex play this week:
Torrey Smith
Cobb or P Thomas in 0.5 PPR?
Start Freeman over Eli this week?
Would you take this trade: Mathews for Dwyer and MJD? (Non-PPR)
doc, would you trade Luck and Welker for RG3 and Nicks ? Keeper league. More worried about ROS and a Championship this year tho.
Non-PPR: who would you start at FLEX this week, R.White, J.Stewart, or Eric Decker?
thanks again, chet
PPR: who would you start at FLEX this week, De.Jackson, J.Stewart, or Josh Gordon?
thanks, chet
Stephens Howling or N. Washington @ flex? .33PPR
Hi Chet,
0.5pt PPR, who would you put at flex:
Donald Brown vs MIA
D. Heyward-Bey vs TB
One more question, in a 1 PPR league:
I give up Megatron + Givens for AJ80 and Welker? Should I do that? My other WRs are Stevie and A Hernandez. (We play WR/TE as 1 position).
Hey chet i was offered decker and Dez/Maclin for Murray. Should I accept? if so, would you take dez or maclin?
my rbs are: Rice, T-Rich, Murray, J-Stew
WRs are: Marshall, Denarius, Antonio Brown, Britt
Uuuuuuuugh, this one's killing me: standard scoring, non-PPR, do I go with Chris Johnson or Antonio Brown in my flex? I feel like with the Pittsburgh RB situation as it is, the Steelers will have to throw all day, but Brown has been doing diddly lately. Plus I'm biased towards favoring RBs over WRs due to the (usually) higher floor.
Then again, CJ's floor is, like, four yards.
Gah! Help!
Hey Chet, What the heck do I do with Ryan Mathews? Owning him is so frustrating. We start 2 RBs and a flex, so should I try to trade him?
My whole team:
Vick, Stafford
McCoy, Mcfadden, Mathews, Jstew
Welker, AJ80, Maclin, Britt
Hernandez, Celek
Drop Britt, Dwyer or Deangelo for Pierre Thomas? Non-ppr
thanks, one more. Should I drop kyle rudolph and pick up allen, cook, myers, dressen or someone else? I have keller on bye.
this one is a ppr
non ppr…3 questions
Chris Johnson vs. Daniel Thomas
Pick Two: Julio Jones, Denarius Moore, and TB Mike (Yeah I feel stupid for asking both those questions, the matchups made me do it)
Last, Pick 2 (a wr and a rb or 2 wr's):
Fred Jackson
Steve Smith
James Jones
Antonio Brown
Anquan Boldin
isaac redman (have to pick him up and drop dwyer)
And in a deep .5 PPR, who would you prefer at FLEX…
Joique Bell @ JAX or Louis Murphy @ WAS?
+1 PPR…pick 2 FLEX, please.
LaRod Stephens-Howling @ GB, Felix Jones @ ATL, James Jones vs ARI, Lance Moore vs PHI. Excluded Cecil Shorts due to your low ranking.
If it matters any… Brees is my QB (possible combo with Moore), Felix plays Sunday night, and Moore plays Monday night.
Leshore, Pierre Thomas, and James Jones. Pick one for rb2 and which one for flex? Thanks
Pierre T or Julio in the flex? Have Demaryius + Green at WR and DMC + T Rich at RB.
Hey Chet, T.Young, J.Gordon, BJGE. Pick one WR & one Flex. Standard Scoring. Thanks.
Jacquizz, Boldin or Turner for ppr RB2?
Trade Torrey Smith and Felix Jones for Hakeem Nicks? Will Nicks take advantage of easy schedule upcoming?
Non-PPR… Desperate flex option: Avery, Hankerson, Louis Murphy or Jacquizz? Been floundering all day… Thanks!
have brady and ryan. rb's are weak trying to get mccoy. Straight deal brady for mccoy? am i asking to little in return? thanks,keith

A hot night in the big city
This nighttime thermal image shows mixed land use in a central urban area. At the top (purple) is a cooler vegetated area while the physical properties and spatial designs of the urban region control the localized temperatures.
A photovoltaic parking canopy can provide a larger volume of shading for a parking lot-with the added benefit of increasing the parking spaces per acre in comparison to a tree-lined parking lot. Photos: ASU SMART Program
This ASTER imagery shows the top 20% of surface temperatures for the Phoenix region at about 10:30 p.m. in October 2003. Photo: NASA MARS Space Flight Facility at Arizona State University
Historically, conventional mitigation strategies have focused on cool pavements, cool roofs, and urban forestry. However, each option has to be evaluated in a "systems" approach due to the complexities of the causes of the UHI. And we also need to select materials based on other factors, such as first and operating costs, performance, aesthetics, and environmental considerations of noise, surface water, emissions, and location.
To simplify the UHI approach by committing to planting more trees, increasing reflectivity, or changing pavement types in a region is to grossly overstate and simplify the value of those mitigation strategies. First, consider the urban setting. The strategies to mitigate the UHI for a region must be developed and applied in more localized settings as it is the summation of the localized UHI "pockets" (of about 2 km) that contribute to the larger regional UHI (greater than 50 km). A city can include a sprawling suburban region, a dense urban core, or a mixture of the two. The spatial design will affect the appropriate mitigation strategies.
A strategy that might primarily provide the maximum amount of shade to keep surfaces cool during the daytime might be rejected for a similar setting where the primary consideration is for nighttime activities. The UHI must be addressed while also meeting human comfort needs. Trees and buildings that provide shade during the day can serve to trap the energy and modify air flow, all of which can contribute to increased temperatures at night.
Another example of a systems approach is the practice of using urban forestry as a primary means to reduce the UHI. Many local governments have developed ordinances to require a specified volume of trees per parking space in commercial parking lots. However, trees located within the boundaries of an impervious surface of parking lots and sidewalks have a high mortality rate and an increased incidence of "dwarfing," which reduces the benefits of the prescribed mitigation strategy. System issues for trees in parking areas include increased temperature of the rhizosphere (root-zone) as a result of the increased thermal storage of the pavement and low soil moisture due to the lack of permeability. To adjust for this, large diamond-shaped planting boxes are constructed, which increases the land required to meet the parking needs and does not resolve the tree dwarfing and viability issues.
A systems approach could include the use of a pervious (or porous) pavement to reduce surface temperatures and in some eases, increase soil moisture content. Such a system can provide the added benefit of reducing the size of the parking lot required and supporting stormwater management.
Another approach is a project that used solar photovoltaic (PV) parking canopies that was undertaken by the nation's third largest public utility (Salt River Project) and the city of Phoenix. Researchers at the SMART Institute found that the PV canopies were more effective in reducing surface temperatures of pavement throughout the diurnal cycle and reduced the required parking lot size since planter space for the trees was not required. And as a bonus, the PV canopies provide an ongoing source of renewable energy.
Trees may, in fact, be a cost-effective and appropriate mitigation strategy for residential structures to reduce the effects of the UHI and energy consumption. However, urban forestry for parking lots and streets must be examined as part of a larger pavement, forestry system, or urban structures system.
In conclusion, mitigation strategies for UHI are complex and considerations of urban form and function need to be considered. The goal should be to identify materials and material designs that can optimize performance and provide both daytime and nighttime mitigation of surface and ambient temperatures.
Materials can be designed that consider properties of thermal conductivity, heat capacity, density, absorption, and emissivity to reduce surface temperatures during the diurnal cycle and also ensure a functional consideration or optimization for the actual function of the material. A new generation of pavement and building materials that use nanomaterials, microfibers, and composites are being developed by researchers at the SMART Institute and similar organizations to reduce the UHI impacts and improve material performance.

Ella's Baby Shower (50 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
When I talk to people about my cousin, Kelsey, I always have to add a disclaimer about how she isn't JUST a cousin, she's more of a sister. So when broke the news that she was pregnant, I was beside myself and (being a photographer) immediately started dreaming about her maternity photo shoot and baby shower. Kelsey is the epitome of "beautiful inside and out". It was such an honor to capture this precious time in her life.
I teamed up another of Kelsey's best friends, Danae (of Danae Grace Events), to style, create, and plan the baby shower. Danae is an incredibly talented event coordinator, so I never had any doubts that Kelsey's shower would be 110% perfect. Despite the weather not being the sunny California day we were hoping for, which forced us to move the shower indoors -- everyone had an amazing time and couldn't stop talking about how impressed they were by every single detail. From the food to the photo booth, everything came together perfectly and I can't imagine that day any other way (besides maybe a little sunshine)!!
This is what she had to say about her baby shower:
"My baby shower blew me out of the water. I was beyond impressed by the details and decorations. I have known both of the ladies that put on my shower for a very long time, so I thought I had some sort of idea of how it would turn out, boy was I wrong. They went above and beyond my expectations, down to every last detail from drinks to decor. I had to walk around my shower at least five times just so I won't miss all of the little things they put together. Danae is so talented at what she does and a month later I am still thinking about my shower and how incredible everything turned out. Even with last minute changes (weather) and a crazy pregnant women (me) these girls pulled it together to make what I think was the best baby shower in the world. I spent hours on pinterest and online looking at this fantastic showers, and I still believe in my heart the mine blew anything I saw out of the water. If you can dream it Danae can create it, and if you want to document anything special in your life Sarah Kathleen can capture it with her amazing photography and artistic background. I am so happy and feel beyond blessed to have had these wonderful women put together a memorable baby shower. "

Think Smarter about the World April 5, 2011
I read this textbook during my research methods class while completing my undergraduate education four years ago. This was one of the most helpful textbooks that I have ever read related to psychology. More specifically, this book reminds us that, as psychologists, we need to remember to take in all information with a grain of salt. In other words, remember to critically evaluate all information presented to you and not believe everything is face valid.
How To Think Straight About Psychology: stars based on 1 user reviews.
Keith Stanovich's widely used and highly acclaimed book helps students become more discriminating consumers of psychological information, helping them recognize pseudoscience and be able to distinguish it from true psychological research. Stanovich helps instructors teach critical thinking skills within the rich context of psychology. It is the leading text of its kind. How to Think Straight About Psychologysays about the discipline of psychology what many instructors would like to say but haven't found a way to. That is one reason adopters have called it "an instructor's dream text" and often comment "I wish I had written it. It tells my students just what I want them to hear about psychology".

William Blake1757–1827
William Blake was born in London, where he spent most of his life working as an engraver and illustrator. At about age ten, Blake had his first vision: a tree filled with angels. Mysticism is one of the hallmarks of his work. While his poetry was not widely known during his lifetime, his writing and his art have continued to grow in popularity.

A lower than expected projection of revenue from a new television contract, plus a sense of weariness over the ongoing internal debate between football and basketball interests, have driven the Big East's 7 Catholic non-football schools to the brink of making a mass exit,
The seven schools :Marquette, Seton Hall, Georgetown, Villanova, DePaul, Providence and St. John's could make a move to officially dissolve the conference.
One source familiar with the talks among the Catholic schools said that break up of the Big East could happen in the next few days. ""We expect the Big East to blow up tomorrow," said the source.
A 2/3 majority is required to approve to dissolve the conference, which the Catholic schools with a 7-3 majority would have.
Various reports on Wednesday stated that, after hearing a preliminary report that the conference negotiations on a new television contract were not promising in terms of revenue, the Catholic schools felt they could do better breaking away on their own as a 10-team non-football conference.
According to several sources familiar with the process, the show of unity among the Catholic schools in their Sunday meeting in New York City with Big East commissioner Mike Aresco was the first step in what could ultimately lead to the departure of those schools from the conference. But it was also thought to be very much a baby step, although there were rumors on Wednesday night that the steps were increasing rapidly.
The timing is critical because under the current voting procedures, the Catholic schools hold a 7-3 edge over the remaining schools who also play football in the Big East (South Florida, Cincinnati and Connecticut). On July 1, with the addition of 6 new members–SMU, Houston, Central Florida, Boise State and Memphis–the balance will tilt back towards a football majority.
A sense of urgency exists, but it is not at yet at a critical stage. That will change as July 1 approaches.
The first issue which had to settled was the new television package. If the deal is on the low-end–Dennis Dodd of CBSsports.com has reported sources saying that it was in the $60 to $80 million a year range, a total which would pay the basketball schools only slightly more than the $1.4 million they are making from their television deals at the present time–there would be a greater inclination for the schools to break completely away from the conference. Big East officials originally said that figure was much lower than they expected. In the last few days, that optimism started to fade.
One of the networks that Aresco was counting on coming through with a significant offer was NBC/Comcast which ostensibly needs programing for its cable outlet. But sources familiar with the situation say that the money offered to the Big East by NBC/Comcast will be very much on the low end of the spectrum.
Sources say the Catholic schools are expected to seek outside counsel to give them an idea of what kind of television numbers they can bring in as newly reconfigured Big East basketball conference. Sources say that former Big East commissioner Mike Tranghese and former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue will be asked to provide input and guidance.
Tagliabue was a consultant during the Big East's expansion discussions, while Tranghese has kept some ties with his former conference.
Aresco's task is to come up with a solution which can satisfy the Catholic schools–creating a primarily Catholic division in basketball which would allow those schools to play each other twice a season in what Aresco calls "mirror" games was a proposal that would likely have been approved if there wasn't a mass exodus.
Arescol says the Big East will add one more football playing school from the West Coast area-Fresno State remains the front runner-but says there is no sense of urgency on that as he continues to talk to BYU and Air Force about joining as football only members.
In what seem almost like pre nuptial clauses in the agreement that San Diego and Boise State signed with the Big East, there are stipulations that there must be at least one other team West of the Rockies (Boise State) and on one other team West of the Mississippi River (SMU and Houston).
Aresco's prime task during the next several weeks, however, will be to focus on getting as profitable a television deal as possible, while also working on putting together a conceptual basketball schedule that will keep as much of the remaining core base of the Big East in the same division.
If the Catholic schools do depart, the next debate will be in keeping the Big East conference name and all the benefits that go with it, including an automatic bid for the tournament champion to the NCAA tournament.
If that does happen, Aresco must regroup with the Temple, Cincinnati, South Florida and Connecticut and the newcomers slated to join the league on July 1–Central Florida, Memphis, SMU, Houston, Boise State San Diego State, Tulane and East Carolina in football, with the possibility of schools such as Fresno State, BYU, Air Force and Navy (scheduled to join in 2015 in football only joining the mix to form a 14 team league.
In basketball, the picture is murkier with a core group of Tulane, SMU, Houston, Memphis, Cincinnati, South Florida, Central Florida, Temple and UConn. That group looks much more like a Conference USA than a Big East league and only has 9 teams, which would obviously be open to expand.
All of this, of course, is based on the Catholic schools departing and that appears to be a distinct possibility.

Plan Ahead for Fabulous Fall Time Fashion (Yes, it's That Time Already!)
This entry was posted on August 1, 2012.
Can you believe that fall time fashion is here?! Sure, it might still be summer time, but that doesn't mean you won't be seeing fall time apparel in the stores - starting now! Since fall time fashion is definitely here, what should you expect to see in the stores and online? There are plenty of elements that will be carryied over from the summer time, so this is good news because you can revamp many of the same outfits that you've been wearing during the summer and wear them during the fall and winter too! Use your summer apparel and transform your clothing into trendy fall time outfits by layering and adding simple elements.
Here are some of the hot trends that you should take advantage of and start planning ahead for when the fall time actually arrives!
Aztec Prints -
Aztect prints are hot for the fall time and it's going to be fun to find mini skirts, tops, and more that have boho patterns and sequin embellishments. Pair a fashionable sequin skirt with a tube top, tank top, or even a stylish sweater for a fall time statement. It will be fun to create a fantastic silhouette for the fall time while embracing the Aztec prints that will look flashy yet fabulous.
Jean Jackets -
We've covered this trend before, and the good news is that if you've invested in a jean jacket during the summer they are sticking around for the fall time too! Jean jackets are super versatile because they go with jean pants, skirts, and even maxi skirts! In fact, a fun fall time ensemble would include a jean jacket, tee-shirt, and a maxi skirt. Add a few lovely accessories (such as a simple necklace and glitzy ring), and you'll have a stunning fall time silhouette!
Fall Time Stripes -
Just like the summer time, stripes are another fun fashion element that are being carried over into the fall time. Stripes are very versatile because you can find a stripe tank top from your summer wardrobe that will also work well with a pair of jeans. Since it's the fall time you might find yourself getting cold in the evenings, so wear a long sleeve top underneath the tank or layer on top the tank with stripes with a jean jacket or sweater! Also keep on the look out for stripes on sweaters and cardigans. It will be fun to wear a stripe sweater with a messenger bag (like in the picture to the left), to create a warm outfit.
So don't put away your summer time stripes and jean jackets just yet! Many of these trendy pieces of clothing you'll also be seeing during the fall time and beyond! Other trendy pieces of clothing will include maxi skirts, layering sweat vests, boots, flats, and more! Get excited because fall time fashion is going to be fabulous! Especially paired with your Perfect Locks! ;)

London And Marmite
Merry Christmas Everyone…wishing you a festive celebration filled with everything you want and like – good food (of course), gifts and great company.

It's been two years since Marty Thyme, Veggie Chick and I started the Don't Call Me Chef in StarTwo, more for fun than anything else.

Teochew Porridge
I went to bed reading Nigella Lawson's latest book, Nigella's Kitchen, and dreaming about her Greek Lamb with Potatoes and Lemon.

Barbecue In Cameron Highland
Cameron Highlands is not exactly my ideal holiday destination. What I remember mostly from previous trips are traffic jams, crowds, lousy food….

Thai Food In Kota Bharu, Kelantan
Most people think of Malay food when it comes to Kelantan, but not to be missed is the Thai food. With its proximity to Thailand, it's actually not surprising to find good Thai food here. I have had some really good Thai meals in Wakaf Baru, which is about 20 minutes outside Kota Bharu. On […]Continue Reading → →
Kelantan And Ayam Kuzi
In recent years, rice has been much maligned. So many friends I know are staying away from rice, and swearing that they feel so much better, and lighter. They are so disciplined they'd have only a few spoonfuls of rice, if at all they have rice. Some have even switched to brown rice. I have […]Continue Reading → →
Eating In Bali
There are some really nice restaurants in Bali, with lovely decor and ambience and good food. Best of all, they are generally pretty affordable. We had a good dinner at Cinta Grill on Monkey Forest Road; the kids had steak and we also ordered opor ayam and fish sate. For dessert, we walked down to […]Continue Reading → →
I first went to Bali 14 years ago; it was my first holiday abroad as a young working adult. My two girlfriends and I were pretty innocent and quite fearless. We had no plans, and not much money. But still we were brave enough to rent a jeepney, and drive around the island on our […]Continue Reading → →
Salted Fish From Beserah, Pahang
If you grew up in a typical Chinese family, your grandparents would have probably told you that story of how they or some ancestor or the trishaw peddler used to be so poor they could only afford to eat salted fish. The poorest of the poor wouldn't even have that luxury. He'd dangle his salted […]Continue Reading → →
Fish Fresh From The Fishing Boat – Beserah, Pahang
I visited Kuantan for the first time last week, and it was miserable the first three days as it was raining and raining. It was cloudy, and the sea was gloomy, but it still didn't stop us from going to the beach. But on the last day that we were there, the sun came out […]Continue Reading → →

Dear Boomer Bucks,
I have an interesting dilemma.
I have a significant amount of stock in a hometown
bank that I was given by my parents over time (estate planning).
It has done very well and I do not plan to sell over the next 20
years; otherwise my family will never live it down. At the same
time I'm interested in investing in real estate.
I have an IRA and I am wondering if I can somehow
transfer that stock to my IRA and get back cash without incurring
taxes on the stock. Can I get a loan from my IRA and pay it back
with stock? Do you have any suggestions?
-- Atlanta Geek
Dear Atlanta,
It's an interesting dilemma indeed if you receive stock as a gift,
but can't sell it for 20 years.
Unfortunately, you can't sell stock that you own to
your IRA. That would be a prohibited transaction. You also cannot
borrow from an IRA, except for a short 60-day period, if you request
a distribution for rollover purposes. However, it's generally a
bad idea to borrow these funds for such a short period because of
the risk that you won't complete the rollover within that 60-day
window. You can take an early withdrawal from an IRA, but would
have to pay taxes plus a 10-percent penalty if you're younger than
age 59½.
You can invest in real estate with IRA proceeds if
you select an IRA custodian that allows you to do so, points out
financial planner Michael Kitces. "Not that it's an avenue
I really encourage because it's full of pitfalls," he says,
"but if the reader has cash available in the IRA for investing,
he could choose to invest in real estate using the IRA funds."
Some IRA custodians that allow you to do this include
Pensco, Equity Trust Co. and Entrust. Be wary of administration
fees; they're much higher than you'd pay in an IRA account held
with a broker.
My suggestion: If the stock has appreciated nicely,
and you'd like to use the proceeds to invest in real estate, sell
at least some of it and pay long-term capital gains tax. (You'll
have to use your parents' cost basis to determine the taxable amount.
If your parents had waited until after their death to give you the
stock as an inheritance, your basis would be the fair market value
of the shares on the date of death.)
The gift you received obviously has strings attached.
See if you can cut them by talking to your folks about your financial
needs or preferences. Also, I recommend that you consult a financial
planner who can best advise you about diversification and the liquidity
issues you may have.
Dear Barbara,
I am planning to retire from Kraft Foods on Oct. 1, 2006. I have
the option of taking a monthly sum for the rest of my life as well
as my wife. They also offer a lump-sum option. The pension plan
pays about 6.33 percent. If I take the lump sum option it looks
like the best I can do is 5 percent.
I would like to take the retirement in monthly
payouts, but after reading your report on pensions is it wise to
take this option? Can they stop my retirement payments once I have
retired? Any advice you can give me is appreciated.
Thank you.

In the case of Kyle Beckerman and Nick Rimando, absence can make the heart grow fonder as the old saying goes. On Friday, July 4 in front of a packed and patriotic house at Rio Tinto Stadium, Real Salt Lake needed a win worse than Brazil's national team needed professional help after crying following a win.
Speaking of Brazil, RSL had reason to cry tears of relief on a dry, hot evening in Sandy, Utah. For starters, the duo of Beckerman and Rimando were back from the very place making grown men cry, win or lose.
And perhaps as Beckerman and Rimando stood there, puffed up and proud in their white adidas windbreakers on a 95-degree evening and as Real Salt Lake and New England prepared to take the field, the extra material provided by Major League Soccer's clothier may have been issued just in case Beckerman or Rimando felt the need to cry.
You can be sure that while Beckerman and Rimando were away at this World Cup in Brazil, RSL head coach Jeff Cassar probably felt the need to bawl buckets of tears into his sweat-soaked dress shirts as his team suffered through a horrible stretch of losses and draws dating back to mid-May.
Lucky for Cassar and for RSL fans, the claret and cobalt won this game, defeating the New England Revolution 2-1. You'd have forgiven RSL players and fans for crying after going through what they did while their dreadlocked captain and top goalkeeper were away.
Besides, Beckerman and Rimando just got off a 15-hour flight--and still wanted to play Friday--not even 24 hours after they'd left the US soccer team, and World Cup and the vastness of Brazil in the rear view of the plane they were flying on. Such courage to come back so soon after such heartbreak would have driven many to tears.
To many, Friday's game probably felt like the World Cup in Brazil was still going on in spirit--so that might begin to explain the odd choice of clothing during the national anthem. But nothing could explain how RSL won the game.
Once the teams took the field, Real Salt Lake certainly had all the possession--but couldn't convert any of its scoring chances until the 35th minute. That's when Javier Morales pulled a James Rodriguez on the New England keeper, stutter-stepping enough to make goalie dive to Morales' right while Morales coolly slotted the ball into left netting for a 1-0 lead. It worked for the Colombian striker earlier in the day against Brazil at the World Cup--so why not here, why not now?
After all, kids go their entire lives emulating those they see on TV. And just in case you were wondering, professional soccer players get to be kids again every time they take the field. How so? Morales then celebrated his PK goal by sprinting towards the left corner flag--but bypassed karate kicking it like because he's a bit more classy than other younger and more hip world-class players.
All kidding aside, the game itself between these two teams vying for a better spot in their conference standings in MLS was a bit of a tossup. RSL couldn't put the ball in the net and New England couldn't stop fouling. When you combine the two, you have an ugly, chippy game.
You also had New England even things up two minutes later in minute 37 with a set piece header--marking yet another occasion that RSL's defense hasn't figured how to prevent teams from scoring on dead balls. On this play, Chris Tierney--a player you should keep your eye on for Russia in 2018--bent an in swinger that New England defender Darius Barnes re-directed with his forehead to tie the game.
Not only did the Revs goal knot things up--it ruined Rimando's opportunity at tying the MLS record for career shutouts.
Things went back and forth from that point, as New England tried in vain to counterattack--its bread and butter staple--but Beckerman's return to midfield seemed to plug up any gaps that RSL's defense had in previous matches.
"I can't attribute all of our possessions to holding a higher line, but I definitely think that it helps. We're just in a better position to defend when we give the ball up, because when we're compact versus dropping immediately and giving more space to the other team," RSL defender Chris Schuler said in his post-game press conference.
Buoyed by a more focused and aggressive defense, RSL pushed numbers forward until it got the game-winner in the 65th minute. It again came off of a penalty kick. RSL midfielder John Stertzer tried to re-direct a deflection inside the six-yard box--and was mowed down from behind by Tierney. The referee pointed to the spot, and this time Joao Plata stepped up to take the kick--not Morales.
Perhaps Cassar felt Morales already showed the New England keeper his hand--and perhaps Cassar wanted to reward Plata with a hard day's work. Plata buried the kick into the upper netting for a 2-1 lead. The goal was his first since May 17, which ironically or not, also marked the last time Real Salt Lake had won.

The way Gehl Architects approach studying and planning environments always starts with people; thinking about how people live and work.
Despite all the advances in technology, especially in transport and communications which have drastically changed the way we live, people still function as they have done for thousands of years. Our bodies look more or less the same as they did thousands of years ago, we are the same size and our senses work in the same way. We are designed to walk and our senses function correctly at walking speed. We walk at approximately 4 mph and at this speed our senses perform in a way which allows us to relate to our surroundings and to other people.
We are also social creatures, and study of the behaviour of people demonstrates that people are naturally curious and attracted to places where there are other people; to watch other people, to meet other people, or just to feel part of a social situation. To make a really good environment for people we must respond to these senses and social needs. We can design environments that are coherent, well proportioned and dimensioned to people-scale, appropriate for walking, attractive and appealing to peoples' senses.
Generally we should think of small, slow and low places. Smaller spaces respond to the physical size of our bodies, lower spaces respond to our horizontal field of vision and slower places respond to our natural walking speed and ability to process sensory information at this speed.
To enable and encourage social interaction, we need to make places safe and attractive, so that people want to spend time there and ensure that the environment is conducive to seeing, hearing and talking.
The Gehl 'upside-down' urban design method starts with defining the kind of public life we want to experience in each part of town. Following this we define the kind of spaces required so that life flourishes. Only then do we consider the buildings – making sure they support the spaces.
People, life and vitality are the biggest attractions in a community. We see it in where people choose to sit, where the most populated benches are located, how people choose to sit on pavement cafes facing the people walking by, rather than the buildings behind them. The biggest quality of a footpath café is simply the social interaction.
Community life is a most important quality, not only when it comes to the discussion of a single street, but also when discussing neighbourhoods and cities as a whole. Issues on life are related to the urban environment and the quality of the urban environment depends on the life and vitality of a place.
When developing a successful community, whether it is existing or new, life needs to be in focus from the beginning of the design process.
The conventional way of planning by focusing primarily on traffic and buildings needs to be turned upside down, to make people and community users more prominent in the planning process.
GEHL Architects have developed working methods for dealing with planning and urban design where the activities of the people within the communities are considered first. The quality of the spaces is analysed based on criteria developed from a people perspective and design solutions and recommendations for spaces, landscaping and buildings are based on these.

There are, typically, three types of lasting, intimate relationships: family, friends, and spouses. Some people never marry, some have no family due to being orphaned or broken bonds, yet, everyone claims to have had or still have friends. Even the most severely mentally ill have imaginary friends. Some children's first friends are imaginary.
What does this say about friendship? Friendship is a deep, personal experience. It's not the Facebook type of friendship, it's that enduring bond you have with someone outside of family and marriage. The Japanese have a word for this, kenzoku. This word means "family". Kenzoku means the bond and kindred spirit of two people that sometimes does not happen through blood ties.
How does one find their kenzoku? It can happen with just a simple experience shared such as work or school. Two moms can meet at the park or someone can move in next door. Having one or more kenzoku helps people live better lives physically and mentally. According to the staff at the Mayo Clinic, friendship increases one's sense of belonging, self-worth, and happiness. They help guide you through divorce, death of a loved one, depression, and loneliness. They're also your biggest supporters.
One can have hundreds of Facebook friends but it's those few, test-of-time friends that really do the most good. A true friend is one that wants the best for you and doesn't mind a 2:00 am phone call even if they haven't heard from you in months.
Making friends, for some people, is hard work and maintaining those bonds can prove harder. Even the closest of friends hit rough patches but for one's physical and mental well-being it's good to have a true friend by your side.

Campina Grande, Brazil
"The worst thing that can happen to a player is being deprived of play. Our joy is to train during the week and we spill it all to end the week with games. Unfortunately, I was punished for three months and a few more days without being able to play, just training."
- Hulk
They don't call Brazilian striker Givanildo Vieira de Souza "Hulk" because he's been accidentally exposed to some Gamma rays that induce his ferocious alter ego, though, that would explain a lot. The short, stocky and powerful up-and-comer bears a striking resemblance to actor Lou Ferrigno, who played the comic book hero on television. He also has a short fuse, demonstrated by a now infamous 2009 tunnel brawl that saw the Porto star receive a four-match ban. If the mighty Hulk can keep his temper locked down, and harness the talent that led to UEFA naming him one of its top 10 rising stars, then Brazil has a good shot at living up to its No. 1 FIFA ranking by winning this summer's World Cup.

It hasn't been difficult to notice Kanye West's absence from G.O.O.D. Music promotion this week. While his friends and collaborators signed albums in New York, Yeezy's presence has been as fleeting and mysterious as one of his albums' vague video trailers. As the most well-known name of the roster and presumably the brainchild behind Cruel Summer, released on Tuesday, not having Kanye around to make sense of it all—or at least flash smiles to reflect his pride in the finished product—feels a little jarring.
But in typical Yeezy fashion, we've gotten his opinion on the subject—better late than never—through a confessional-style video interview posted to his YouTube account on Wednesday. West touches on the theme of empowerment within the album and who he ideally hoped to be making this music for. "Music that you listen to on your way to work so you can deal with your boss; music that you listen to cause you're the boss, so that you can deal with your employees!" he says. West also calls out the full list of artists on the album, sharing details about the happiness he created by playing matchmaker for younger acts and their idols (Pusha T and Ghostface Killah; CyHi da Prince and Raekwon and Common). "One track might have 30 people's opinions on it, but it's not just about a tracklisting of names, it's about the commune style of work," he explains. You'll notice he likes the word "commune," using it once again to describe the goals of G.O.O.D. along with a new term he made up on the fly. "We take it really serious that we make the best product we can, but also we're light with it, too. We just want to have fun and commune and festivalize—I'm not sure if that's currently a word but it will be afterwards."
While you add that to your dictionary, Yeezy gives us the DONDA version of what this all means, bigger picture-style: "It's our offering as a collective of a sonic snapshot of what's happening right now, 2012, this Cruel Summer," he says. Uh huh. Sure. Kim's made you so deep, 'Ye! Watch below.

Season Review: Illini struggle, but snap B1G skid
Year Two under Tim Beckman brought hope in the form of an improved won-loss record, as Illinois went from two victories to four. The credit goes to a revived offense, as new coordinator Bill Cubit altered the scheme and maxed out the skills of senior quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase. Illinois averaged 29.7 points and 426.7 yards in 2013 after averaging 16.7 points and 296.7 yards in 2012.

WACO, Texas -- Ted Nugent is finished hunting for a new pad. But he has some stuff to unload first.
The transplanted Detroit rocker held an estate sale in Texas over the weekend, peddling big game trophies to make relocation to a nearby ranch a bit easier.
"Hey, he's still in Texas. He's not going anywhere except on tour," said James "Big Jim" Brown, who ran the sale and described himself as general manager of "all things Nuge."
The guitarist and singer, an avid hunter and gun enthusiast, moved to central Texas several years ago, first finding a home in China Spring. From there, he moved to nearby Crawford -- where President Bush's ranch is -- and then into Waco.
Nugent and his family determined that "the simpler life back on SpiritWild Ranch (in China Spring) is the way to go," he wrote in his column in the Waco Tribune-Herald.
China Spring is about 12 miles from Waco. The sale was conducted Friday and Saturday at the Heart O' Texas Fairgrounds.
Items available for purchase included a rhinoceros head, zebra stallion mounts and bleached deer skulls signed by Nugent, the newspaper reported. The bulk of the estate sale involved the trophies and furniture.
It was not immediately clear how much of the merchandise sold.
The Motor City Madman is best known for his 1977 hit "Cat Scratch Fever."
