It purifies your air with PCO technology that features a high power germicidal UVC bulb. This bulb creates a purifying plasma that reduces mold, bacteria, and viruses (even on surfaces) so the months spent with doors and windows closed no longer means months spent in a stuffy indoor environment.
Perhaps the best of pureHeat's features, is that when the weather is warm it can still be used as an air purifier. Just press the purifier button and enjoy the vast benefits of active air and surface purification year-round!
Energy efficiency and safety are two key benefits of the pureHeat line of heaters. The PTC heating element in each pureHeat warms to only a few hundred degrees Fahrenheit. Traditional ceramic heaters, in contrast, heat to thousands of degrees Fahrenheit.
In comparison, the lower element heat amounts to a more even heat, lower energy costs, as well as eliminating the risk of fire. When used in a zone-heating strategy, pureHeat can reduce your winter energy bills by up to 50%!
PureHeat is designed to provide years of trouble-free service when used and maintained according to the Owner's Manual.

Naugy delivers Bruno an emotional victory
NAUGATUCK — Coach Craig Bruno stood on the Veterans Field turf Friday night with a game ball tucked inside his right arm and still-fresh tears dripping down his cheeks. That one visual illustrated the impact of Naugatuck's 39-0 win over Bunnell, Bruno's former school.
"It was emotional," said Bruno, who in January left the Bulldogs after 12 years and two state titles to take the job at Naugy. "They gave me my first chance. I'll always be indebted to them, but I'll probably never play them again as long as I'm in coaching. If we didn't look good tonight, I think they would have reflected that on Naugatuck. I'm pretty sure we sent a message."
The message wasn't singular, and it certainly wasn't stuffed inside an envelope. There were reminders all night, in every corner of the field, of how much the Greyhounds wanted the win.
"The whole team was playing for him," said Naugatuck quarterback Jason Bradley, who threw for 396 yards and four touchdowns. "This means the world to him, the fact that we could beat his old team like this. Nobody else deserved the game ball but Coach Bruno."
"We really wanted this for Coach," Naugy wide receiver Bryan Coney said. "He's done so much for us and he drives us every game. We wanted to come out here and show him that he made the right decision." Naugatuck (5-1) showed Bruno by producing its best performance in his short tenure. The Greyhounds' offense was sharp, racking up 516 yards and moving the ball at will on almost every series. They took a 33-0 lead at halftime and called it quits on the offensive side after scoring once in the second half.
Bradley completed 20 of 32 passes, hitting six different receivers. Ryne Griesenauer (10 catches, 153 yards), Bryan Coney (three for 82), Kevin Robinson (three for 68) and Rick Plasky (two for 58) all caught touchdown passes.
But the story was more about defense than anything. The Greyhounds limited Bunnell to 105 total yards and kept it out of the end zone. In the first half, the Bulldogs only accumulated 4 yards of offense, and they were on the negative side until a 13-yard pass just before halftime.
Naugy picked off Bunnell starter Nolan Aurelia five times and intercepted backup Michael Castelot in the red zone late in the game to seal the shutout. Griesenauer, Coney, Chris Quarles, Matthew Burke, Maleek Brooks and Nate Franklin all grabbed interceptions.
"We had the quarterback's number all night," Griesenauer said. "We read his eyes and we have athletes at every position on the field. We know our offense is going to score, but we have to make sure other teams don't score more. We're all over the field trying to make every play."
Bruno credited defensive coordinator John Pereira for the team's play. The Greyhounds have allowed just three points in their last two games after suffering their only loss in Week 4 at Woodland.
"The guys have been sharper," Bruno said. "They're in the right spots. Maleek is getting much better at cover corner. Coney looked good. Nate is playing better, and we have a good pass rush. We need everyone to play this well."
Even with Naugatuck's second-team offense in the game, the goose egg on Bunnell's side of the scoreboard shined brighter and brighter as the minutes ticked down.
"I think you saw how important that zero was," Bruno said. "It feels good to beat your old team; I don't care what anybody says. The zero was important for us because it gives us confidence."
The X's and O's gave the Greyhounds confidence, sure, but the definitiveness of their win for their coach may have given them even more.
"We know he chose us for a reason, and we wanted to show him that he made the right choice," Griesenauer said. "We did it."

UWA women drop close game to Shorter
Published: Friday, November 30, 2012 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 30, 2012 at 1:08 a.m.
ROME, Ga. | Shorter held off a second-half surge by West Alabama to secure a 56-53 women's Gulf South Conference victory over the Tigers on Thursday night.
Down by as many as 16 in the first half, UWA (4-3, 0-1) whittled the Shorter lead to 29-23 by halftime and then tied the score at 41 on a Jamie Gunter field goal with 10:42 to play.
UWA took a 51-49 lead with 10:03 left to play on a runner in the paint by Anna Dill. The Lady Hawks (2-1, 1-0) built a 54-48 lead, but Brittany Weathers converted a three-point play and then hit a jumper with 3:32 left to shave the Shorter lead to 54-53.
Shorter held the Tigers scoreless over the final 3:32 to preserve the victory.
Lynette Harris scored 17 to lead Shorter scorers, followed by Kristin Nash with 13.
Weathers had 22 points for UWA to lead all scorers. She also had 10 rebounds to record her third double-double. Jamie Gunter followed with 14 points and Tamya Thompson chipped in 13. Thompson was one rebound shy of a double-double.
The Tigers remain on the road in GSC play by visiting Alabama-Huntsville on Saturday. Tip off is 6 p.m.

Grant Abstract
Grant Number:
PI Name: MURPHY, SUZANNE P.
Project Title: Evaluating Errors in Reported Use of Dietary Supplements
Abstract: DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Dietary supplements are widely used (up to 70% of some groups report regular use), often frequently and sometimes at high doses. As a result, vitamin and mineral supplements make a substantial contribution to nutrient intakes for many Americans, and intakes of any type of supplement (including botanicals) may have important effects on chronic disease outcomes. However, methods to characterize supplement use at either the individual or group level have seldom been evaluated. Although errors in the measurement of food intake have been extensively studied, little is known about the errors associated with self-reports of supplement use. The proposed study will evaluate the two most common methods of collecting dietary supplement use data: (1) A self-administered short questionnaire that asks about use of a specific list of supplements over the past year; and (2) An open-ended interviewer-administered recall of recent supplement use (past two weeks or past month). Both methods will be compared to a reference inventory method, which measures intake based on a quarterly inventory of supplement containers, collected for one year. The open-ended recalls will also be compared to daily dairies, a reference measure for shorter-term supplement use. Data collection will span one year for each of 500 subjects, representing five ethnicities and both genders. Three-fifths of the sample (300) will provide supplement use data for the inventory, diaries, and both recall methods. Two-fifths of the sample (200) will serve as control subjects and will only complete the short questionnaire at the beginning and end of the study. Data analyses will compare results between methods and between time periods, and quantify errors in types of supplement used, frequency of use, and doses. Daily, weekly, and quarterly (seasonal) within person variation in supplement use will be quantified. The effect of using default values for brand, dose, and frequency will also be investigated. The results will (1) inform the choice of instruments to be used for national surveys and large cohort studies; (2) suggest approaches to minimize errors in self-reports of supplement use; and (3) permit the development of appropriate adjustments that can be used during analyses to account for variation and biases in the self-reported data.

Children's Health
Low Vitamin D More Common in Overweight Kids
Dec. 24, 2012 -- Overweight and obese children and teens are more likely to have low vitamin D levels than kids with healthy weights, a new study suggests.
The study is published in Pediatrics.
Vitamin D is essential for bone health. Bone growth is high during childhood and adolescence. So it may be especially important to identify and treat vitamin D deficiency during that time, the researchers write.
Vitamin D deficiency is also linked to a variety of chronic conditions, such as:
Previous research suggests that obesity may put you at risk for vitamin D deficiency.
Overweight Kids and Vitamin D
Researchers in the study analyzed data from more than 12,000 U.S. children and teens aged 6 to 18. The children were enrolled in the 2003-2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
About 21% of the healthy-weight youngsters were deficient in vitamin D. That was also true for 29% of those who were overweight, 34% of those who were obese, and 49% of those who were severely obese.
Even after accounting for such factors as vitamin D supplementation and intake of milk, which is typically fortified with vitamin D, the rates of vitamin D deficiency were higher in Latinos and African-Americans. Among the severely obese youngsters, 27% of whites, 52% of Latinos, and 87% of African-Americans were deficient in vitamin D.
"The particularly high prevalence in severely obese and minority children suggests that targeted screening and treatment guidance is needed," the researchers conclude.
Researcher Christy Turer, MD, a pediatrician at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and Children's Medical Center in Dallas, says she and her colleagues already were routinely checking vitamin D levels in children at specialty clinics, such as weight management clinics. Those found to be deficient are prescribed high-dose vitamin D supplements, a pill taken weekly. After eight weeks of treatment, their levels are rechecked, and if they're near normal, she'll cut them back to monthly doses of vitamin D supplements.
Turer also recommends that vitamin-D-deficient patients drink low-fat milk. If they don't like to drink plain milk, she says they can add artificially sweetened flavors that add only 15 calories a serving.
"The reason that milk is important is it has not just vitamin D, but it has calcium," she says. Unsweetened soy milk and almond milk are also good sources of vitamin D and calcium, Turer says.

Cattle Fall From Moving Trailer Onto U.S. 27 Near Sunset Drive
Following vehicle strikes one; two animals die in the accident.
Published: Thursday, December 6, 2012 at 5:20 a.m.

LAKE WALES | Polk County deputies spent Wednesday afternoon rounding up several head of cattle that fell out of a moving stock trailer on U.S. 27 near Sunset Drive in Lake Wales.
Ike Stein of Lake Wales was driving a pickup pull- ing a stock trailer at about 6:15 p.m. when six of the animals spilled out of the trailer's open gate, deputies said.
It wasn't clear Wednesday night what caused the gate to open.
Amanda Gahler, 18, of Sebring, was driving behind the trailer and didn't see the cattle fall out, deputies said.
As a result, she hit one of the animals that landed on the road. The animal died at the scene.
The two animals that died were valued at about $2,250, deputies said.
The four others were rounded up in a nearby wooded area.
The truck was carrying eight head of cattle, deputies said.
Gahler's vehicle had about $7,000 worth of property damage.
Deputies weren't sure Wednesday night how fast Stein was driving, but said the speed limit on U.S. 27 is 65 miles per hour.

In "The Last Stand," Schwarzenegger plays the sheriff of an Arizona town tasked with stopping a Mexican cartel boss from returning to Mexico. It's the 65-year-old's first leading role since "Terminator 3" a decade ago.
He said in Seoul on Wednesday that he tries to pick projects that "could be popular not only in America, but all over the world."
"The Last Stand," the debut Hollywood film of South Korean director Kim Jee-woon, opens in Seoul on Thursday. Schwarzenegger recalled his memories of South Korea from his bodybuilding days, saying "it's a major player in the world stage economically and in every other way."

New research finds that rapidly-paced cartoons such as SpongeBob Squarepants may be associated with difficulty concentrating for preschool children.
The study out of the University of Virginia, finds that preschoolers who watched just nine minutes of SpongeBob were "significantly impaired" in tests that measure a person's ability to stay on task. These tests measured the child's ability to problem solve, follow rules and remember information.
One of the study's weaknesses was its size, only consisting of 60 four-year olds. The children were split into three groups. One group watched SpongeBob, the second watched an educational cartoon (Caillou on PBS), and the third group spent the nine minutes drawing.
The children who watched the fast-paced cartoon did not perform as well in all tasks, compared with the other two groups: 15 percent of the children who watched SpongeBob passed the problem-solving task, compared with 35 percent of those who watched the educational cartoon, and 70 percent of those who spent their time drawing.
According to MSNBC, the authors write SpongeBob may not have the same negative effects on attention in older children. They also acknowledge it is unknown how long the negative effects may last.
Dr. Dimitri Christakis, the author of a commentary accompanying the study, tells TIME:
"Too many children watch too much TV… But it's at least as important to figure out what they should watch. SpongeBob, for what it's worth, isn't even supposed to be viewed by kids between the ages of 3 to 5. That alone is a guide for parents: watch age-appropriate content."

SANTA CLARA -- Tight end Vernon Davis reiterated Monday what he has said for weeks: He is a vital part of the game plan each week, it's just that defenses are making sure that he isn't the player that hurts them the most.
"There's some multiple factors there, the biggest one being that defenses are playing us and taking that into account, taking Vernon into account," 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said. "They're wary of getting beat by Vernon Davis. That's the biggest issue."
Davis said defenses are playing him different than other prolific tight ends such as Tony Gonzalez, Jason Witten and Rob Gronkowski, often with a defender in front and another behind him on most plays.
Davis called this season "stressful" but just part of the "learning curve."
Through it all, Davis has remained patient and found other ways to contribute, especially as a blocker.
He said the current coaches "wouldn't have liked me" if this were four or five years ago, when Davis would struggle with his emotions when not getting the ball often enough.

VAIL - If you're on the mountain when the lifts close today, it's time to leave.
Vail Resorts, the Forest Service and Vail Police are asking - nicely - that you don't dawdle on the mountain when the lifts stop running at 4 p.m. on this season's second Closing Day.
Vail has had 5 feet of snow since its first Closing Day last Sunday and reopened Vail Mountain for one more weekend, which ends today.
"It's a privilege to be able to celebrate Closing Day for a second time this season, and we hope that guests will respect this opportunity and focus the celebration on enjoying some great skiing and snowboarding at Vail," said Davy Ratchford, director of marketing and sales at Vail Mountain.
Skiers and snowboarders will take their final turns on more than 2,400 acres of terrain, and those turns, Ratchford reminds us, need to end promptly at 4 p.m.
Vail's legendary Closing Day mountaintop party, 4 at 4, was last Sunday. Hundreds of revelers lingered until about 6 p.m. This week, revelers are being asked to head down promptly at 4 p.m., said Dave Neely, of the Eagle/Holy Cross District Ranger.
The ski company, the Forest Service and the Vail Police department came up with a system for 4 at 4 to get everyone safely off the mountain on Closing Day.
"The effort to coordinate a sweep to get down is massive," Neely said. "Their personnel can't monitor every person up there, and they also can't ski away from someone up there who is intoxicated."
They'll ask nicely for you to move your party to the bottom of the mountain. A refusal to leave could be a violation of Colorado's Skier Safety Act, Neely said, and that's aggravation you just don't need.
You can haul one day pack per person onto the mountain today, provided the bag fits in a five-gallon container.
It's also against the law to ride lifts or ski trails when you're impaired by alcohol or controlled substances. The fines aren't necessarily massive, but you can lose your skiing and snowboarding privileges for the 2013-14 season.
And besides, Vail Village and Lionshead are packed with lovable libation locations where you can buy yourself an adult beverage, or two.
Neely was at the top of Chair 4 last Sunday for the annual 4 at 4 party. A DJ kept the crowd entertained and they had no trouble getting most people off the mountain, Neely said.
"Almost everyone was having a great time," Neely said.
Almost all left because they were having so much fun and were happy. A few hard heads were a bit of a problem, but nothing that can't be solved by holding them until the police can pick them up, Neely said.
Then there were a few who'd had so much fun they just couldn't get down safely. Mountain officials held those soused snowriders and haul them down in a snowcat.
And because this is Vail and they think of everything, everyone gets their own bucket.
They're providing trash and recycling containers on the mountain for picnickers, and ask that you use them. Locals who've been around a while recall all kinds of end-of-the-season events that used to exist but no longer do because partiers left mountains of trash behind.
Once Vail Ski Patrol sweeps the mountain, it will remain closed until summer operations resume in early June.

Stone 02.02.02 Vertical Epic Ale
RATINGS: 100 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.81/5 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 225 ABV: 7.5%
A new Vertical Epic will be released every year, with the goal being to collect them all and have a Vertical Epic tasting once the final Epic is released on 12/12/12. Each new Stone Vertical Epic Ale will be release one YEAR, one MONTH and one DAY apart. Vertical Epic 02/02/02 was not brewed "to style". Instead, we tried to create something new. It's triple-ish in nature, with wit character, coriander and orange peel, and has way more hops than either a Belgian triple or a Wit would. Belgian yeast was used. Belgian Strong Ale is the closest category that fits -- Greg Koch, Stone Brewing CEO. In addition, we are pleased to provide the homebrewing recipe: http://stonebrew.com/timeline/020202

Federal Strategic Sourcing Initiative (FSSI)
Strategic sourcing is the structured and collaborative process of critically analyzing an organization's spending patterns to better leverage its purchasing power, reduce costs, and improve overall performance. The primary goals of FSSI are to:
- Strategically source across federal agencies;
- Establish mechanisms to increase total cost savings, value, and socioeconomic participation;
- Collaborate with industry to develop optimal solutions;
- Share best practices; and
- Create a strategic sourcing community of practice.
Federal government purchasing is decentralized and there are duplicative contracts over many organizational components. Procurement is limited by the number of contracts, the prices paid on the contracts, and the number of other existing governmentwide or agency-wide solutions. This results in significant price variations across the government for the same products and services, sometimes with the same contractor.
FSSI has been implementing strategic sourcing solutions for the government since 2005. FSSI has proven results that include cost savings, improved management visibility, and adoption of industry and government agency best practices. FSSI has helped improve the government management of commonly purchased goods and services.
FSSI solutions provide easy access to its procurement vehicles which offer business intelligence, best practice solutions, and greater discounts with volume increases. Additional benefits include that they:
- Fulfill OMB's requirement for cross-government FSSI participation;
- Assist with socioeconomic goals;
- Collect and analyze data;
- Identify trends;
- Re-engineer business processes;
- Replicate cost-saving business processes;
- Share lessons learned and best practices;
- Realize cost efficiencies;
- Streamline the procurement process; and
- Drive additional discounts.
Current FSSI commodity solutions include:
- Express and Ground Domestic Delivery Services (FSSI DDS3);
- Maintenance, Repair & Operations Supplies (FSSI MRO);
- Janitorial & Sanitation Supplies (FSSI JanSan);
- Office Supplies (FSSI OS3);
- Print Management (FSSI PM);
- Wireless (FSSI Wireless); and
- Information Services (FSSI IS).
Historical Solutions Include:
- Office Supplies First Generation and Second Generation;
- Domestic Delivery Services First and Second Generation; and
- Telecommunications Expense Management Services (TEMS).

For Summit County's 21+ crowd, there are some amazing wine bars available for the apprehensively sipping novice to the connoisseur that can't get enough of that full-bodied red.The social culture that surrounds wine in the High Country is great - for those who have yet to wet their whistles, now is as good a time as any to begin the sampling and adventure into wine.There is something for everyone - wine comes in red, white and pink varying from sweet to dry, full-bodied to light and airy.Here's a selection of a few of Summit County's finest wine spots:
D'Vine Wine, home to Wild Woman Wines is the only place in Summit County that offers music, wine and massage all at once. Every Friday and Saturday night, D'Vine Wine hosts Merlot, Music and Massage. With this outstanding deal, wine is offered at $5 and one-minute chair massages for only $1. D'Vine Wine's general manager and proprietor, Pete Baldwin, "Naked Pete," is known for his great sense of humor, huge personality and piano music."I play nine instruments all together - piano, saxophone, jazz flute and many more," Baldwin said. "Though my jazz flute is in dire need of repair."Though D'Vine will be missing its jazz flute, Baldwin plays "his own unique style of piano entertainment" that can be heard from Breckenridge's Main Street Fridays and Saturdays from 6-9 p.m. "It's the only place in Summit County that serves as a piano wine bar," Baldwin said. "We like to keep everything fun."Baldwin, who has contracted to become the owner of the wine bar plans on changing the name to Naked Pete's Winery at Breckenridge next ski season where he will bring equipment to make wines in-house."I refuse to own a stuffy winery - I want this place to remain Summit County's laid-back mountain winery," Baldwin said. "Our wines are easy to drink - they're fairly young wines but we have a large variety and a wide range of flavor."The very popular "Blackberry Merlot," is a local favorite, Baldwin said."We call it crackberry as a joke," Baldwin said. "When we get a shipment of it, I'll put it on Facebook and then by the next day half of it will be gone."On the weekends, D'Vine Wines is very busy and will book out. No reservations for wine tastings are needed, but making it in before the usual 6 p.m. rush will be in the wine taster's favor - service is first come, first serve.
This beautiful property offers a upscale atmosphere at an affordable price. Breck Wine, Cheese & Chocolate offers an upstairs tasting room where the casual sipper can experience a unique selection of wines from around the world, artisan cheeses and chocolates. The wine bar also offers espresso for those who may be falling asleep after too much wine - hey!

Breck Wine, Cheese & Chocolate offers year long informational seminars about wine regions, varieties and tastings.
Located directly next door to The Wine Merchant, Frisco Foodies offers a great atmosphere and quaint tasting room that is open everyday.The location features a very beautiful open tasting room with lots of windows providing plentiful natural lighting and an expansive wine selection.Foodies, loyal to its name, also offers artisan cheeses, specialty meats, spices, teas, candies, vinegars and oils, marinades and grilling sauces.A person that is passionate about food, will find a multitude of options for pairing wines with the specialty market items.

There's nothing like trying to open a wine bottle sans corkscrew to make you swear that you will never ever leave the house again without packing properly. So here to assist you in that endeavor is Annie Bell's essential picnic checklist, culled from her new book, "The Picnic Cookbook" (Kyle Books, $19.95, 176 pages):
1. That corkscrew.
2. Stemless wine glasses or paper cups -- but never flimsy plastic cups, Bell says.
3. Plates for serving, as well as eating. For an elegant picnic, mix the melamine or plastic with some mismatched vintage china -- dishes that won't devastate you if broken.
4. Knives, forks and spoons, for serving as well as eating.
5. A small bread board for slicing baguettes, salami, cheese or fruit.
6. Napkins and dish towels.
7. Sea salt and black pepper so guests can tweak the seasoning.
8. A nice blanket, not a ratty one.
9. Sunscreen, sunglasses, cushions and umbrellas for comfort.
10. Plastic wrap and plastic bags for leftovers.

Founding fathers believed in limited government. Moreover, they promoted smart government that actively shaped our nation's future, establishing innovations such as postal roads to unite settlers who lived far apart and canals to transport crops.
When House tea party candidates won 2010 mid-term elections, they misread our early national history.
Tea partiers accept archival evidence propping up their bias. They distort our country's origins, saying they spread Jeffersonian values. The tea party claims limited government always means it's small. They say diminished government inspires citizens to exercise personal liberties, bold initiatives and individual responsibility.
Tea partiers - mostly older, white, well-off evangelical Republicans - contort colonial history to support their anti-government tirades. They interpret the Constitution's inherent powers given to the federal government as a betrayal, rather than the intent, of the founders' vision.
Such historical revisionists turn on its head the Apostle Paul's counsel about government. He insists: "Rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad" (Romans 13:3).
The tea party revises this text to say Uncle Sam is bad because he terrorizes with taxes, spending and welfare. They err, claiming government poses an obstacle to our Republic - not an opportunity for individuals to thrive. Tea partiers caricature Washington bureaucrats who, they allege, build mountains of debt rather than getting indigent folk off the dole.
Political commentator E.J. Dionne in his book, "Our Divided Political Heart," pinpoints the deep divide over government: "Is democratic government primarily constructive or destructive? Does it protect and expand our freedoms, or does it undermine them? Can public action make the private economy work better, or are all attempts to alter the market's course doomed to failure? Do government efforts to widen opportunities and lessen inequality enhance individual achievement or promote dependency?" (p. 10).
Whether the federal government moves smartly or trips stupidly, tea party advocates want less of it.
Tea party favorite Amity Shlaes, director of the Four Percent Growth Project at the George W. Bush Presidential Center, distorts how the federal government dealt with the Great Depression.
In "The Forgotten Man: a New History of the Great Depression," Shlaes spreads half-truths. They are more harmful than outright lies because a half-truth hugs what's correct and at first reading makes the lie sound credible.
Shlaes posits the half-truth that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal didn't end the Great Depression, but intensified it with massive debt. She rightly reports smarter government implementing New Deal policies didn't end rampant unemployment. Private-public partnerships for spending in World War II finally put Americans back to work.
Shlaes and tea party colleagues spread analytical bias, sticking with Roosevelt's policies that didn't deliver jobs for full employment. The New Deal gave Uncle Sam enormous credibility when he wrapped his arms around needy citizens, offering help, hope and honest remedies to escape their plight.
Historian Alan Brinkley, in his biography "Franklin Delano Roosevelt," refutes Shlaes sloppy scholarship. He exposes the tea party's lie that the government is good for little, except going to war. "The New Deal," Brinkley said, "created more institutions that significantly and permanently expanded the role of the federal government in American life, providing at least minimal assistance to the elderly, the poor and the unemployed; protecting the rights of labor unions; stabilizing the banking system; building low-income housing; regulating financial markets; subsidizing agricultural production; and doing many other things that had not previously been federal responsibilities" (p.61).
In turn, these federal policies allowed more citizens to get a bigger piece of the financial pie that the rich had sliced for themselves. More citizens exercised personal liberties because the government protected their rights.
President Barack Obama, in his first inaugural address, rejected two versions of American individualism. One gained enormous popularity in the 1960s when protesters raised placards to "do our own thing" because "if it feels good, we deserve to do it."
Instead, the president spoke of shouldering responsibility and acting on others' behalf. He echoed Lord Acton's dictum: "Liberty is not the power of doing what we like, but the right to do what we ought." Then the president criticized economic individualism that began in Ronald Reagan's presidency and led to the Great Recession at the end of Bush II's administration.
Obama warned not to itch with the "pleasures of riches and fame." He urged us to define ourselves as citizens, not consumers, who spread wealth by fostering equal opportunity. The president challenged citizens to protect economic liberty, rather than allowing a few to benefit most from it.
The tea party unfairly excoriated him as a "socialist." They're wrong. Smart government protects and expands personal liberties for citizens, rich and poor.

Van Ens is a Presbyterian minister who heads the nonprofit, tax-exempt Creative Growth (www.thelivinghistory.com), which enhances Christian worship through storytelling and dramatic presentations aimed to make God's history come alive.

DOE Closes $1.4 Billion Loan to Nissan
Nissan's all-electric LEAF will be built in a retooled Smyrna, Tennessee, factory as a result of a DOE loan.
DOE announced January 28 that it has closed its $1.4 billion loan with Nissan North America, Inc. to build an advanced battery manufacturing facility in Smyrna, Tennessee, and to retool the automaker's existing Smyrna factory so it can build electric automobiles. Nissan plans to use the loan to produce its all-electric vehicle, the LEAF, at the retooled Smyrna plant. Nissan will offer electric vehicles to fleet and retail customers, and the automaker plans to ramp up production capacity in Smyrna so that it can build 150,000 vehicles and 200,000 battery packs annually. The two projects are expected to create up to 1,300 U.S. jobs and to conserve up to 65.4 million gallons of gasoline per year.
The Nissan announcement marks the third loan agreement signed by DOE with an advanced technology vehicle manufacturer, following a $5.9 billion agreement with Ford Motor Company in September 2009 and a $465 million loan agreement with Tesla Motors, Inc. on January 21. DOE has also signed a conditional commitment with Fisker Automotive to build plug-in hybrid electric vehicles by reopening a shuttered auto plant in Wilmington, Delaware. Tenneco, Inc. became the first advanced technology component manufacturer to obtain a conditional commitment from DOE in October of last year.
Congress appropriated $7.5 billion to DOE to support up to $25 billion in loans to companies using U.S. factories to make cars and components that increase fuel economy at least 25% above 2005 fuel economy levels. DOE plans to make additional loans over the next several months to large and small auto manufacturers and parts suppliers up and down the production chain. See the DOE press release and the LEAF page on the Nissan Web site.

30,000-foot rule
Potty mouths, consider yourselves warned. An Australian who uttered obscenities while quarreling with another passenger aboard Tiger Airways landed in a heap of trouble on the ground in Singapore. According to the Los Angeles Times, he violated the "outage of modesty" laws and could have faced jail time and a severe lashing. He was spared the cane, but the airline's stance remains firm: "Tiger Airways has a zero-tolerance policy toward inappropriate behavior on board our aircraft."

History isn't always something you have to go searching for. Sometimes it comes to you.The Eagle County Historical Society will demonstrate its "History Take-Out" program at the annual meeting slated Thursday, Nov. 29, at the Eagle Public Library. This is the hands-on program created by History Colorado (the Colorado Historical Society) for third- and fourth-grade students.Meeting participants will use "artifacts" such as buffalo bones, a beaver hide and an assayer's scale to learn about the movement of early people in Colorado from Native Americans to the miners of 1870. Artifacts including tools and clothing help teach about some of the pioneering industries in Colorado. Timelines, maps and old photographs add historical perspective to the lesson.For the first time, this year's meeting will also include a silent auction for a few "excess" items from the museum archives, including antique bottles, branding irons, newspapers from the World War II era and magazines from the 1960s.The meeting will be held on Thursday, Nov. 29, at 6:30 p.m. at the Eagle Public Library. The general public as well as ECHS members are invited to attend. Families are welcome.For more information, contact Kathy Heicher at 328-7104 or email@example.com.
Beaver Creek's traditional tree lighting celebration and gingerbread house competition marks the beginning of the holiday season this Friday, Nov. 23. This year, the tree lighting will be bigger and brighter than ever thanks to a locally grown 38-foot tall alpine fir tree from Montrose.

The event also features a full evening of festivities for the whole family including holiday poetry contest, a visit from Santa, a fireworks display, and the gingerbread competition. Elaborate gingerbread creations will be on display for the competition in the Gerald R. Ford Hall at the Park Hyatt Beaver Creek and 100 percent of the silent auction and Holiday Market proceeds will go to Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA), a local organization serving children in Eagle, Summit, Lake and Clear Creek counties.The winner of a special "Kids' Holiday Wish for a Better World Poetry Contest" will read his or her poem at the tree lighting ceremony and will have the honor of lighting Beaver Creek's holiday tree. Local judges will select poems that best reflect the spirit of the holiday season.Festivities get under way at 10 a.m. with public staking and holiday music at the Black Family Ice Rink.

February 21, 2006
Investigators say they have a serial rapist in custody. Today a Richmond County grand jury indicted Michael Christian Clay on five different rapes. One of the victims still in the hospital is expected to remain in a coma for the rest of her life.
Michael Christian Clay was also indicted for the January 11th beating of a dry cleaner owners. News 12 sat down with that victim who is still recovering from the attack.
Kioak Yim says it was January 11th. She'd just opened up Y&K Cleaners on Gordon Highway when someone attacked her.
"He was punching my eye area, my eye under bone was sticking in," Yim said.
Kioak has had two surgeries to reconstruct the broken bones in her face. Investigators say Michael Christian Clay is responsible.
"I'm going to die, the only think I'm thinking is I'm dying," Yim said.
While investigators say Michael Christian Clay is responsible for the assault and beating of Kioak Yim, they also say he's responsible for several other crimes, five rapes, the latest one happening at the Silver Bullet Lounge. That victim is still hospitalized.
"She will probably be for the rest of her life on a respirator or life support," Lt. Scott Peebles said.
Investigators say rapes dating back to 2000 and 2003 are linked by the same DNA. Investigators say they are confident Michael Christian Clay's DNA will connect him to two rapes at Southview Cemetary, one in a parking lot here at Mount Vernon Baptist Church, another behind Wilkinson Gardens Elementary School and the latest on January 9th at Silver Bullet Lounge. But an unrelated case on February 15th where investigators say he was charged with assault on a pedestrian is what helped them link their cases.
"Information that we learned while investigating that case made us go back and look at the other cases we were involved with," Peebles said.
"I'm happy because one reason that way he's not going to do other people, he's not going to hurt other people," Yim said.
Investigators have taken DNA samples from Michael Christian Clay. They are waiting on those results from the GBI Crime Lab. However, they are very confident they have the right man based on other evidence.

Today's letters: Caring for all
Published: Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, July 12, 2013 at 6:00 p.m.
To the editor: As an ardent Democrat, I find myself agreeing with Dennis Justice, the former president of the Republican Mens Club. In his recent column titled, Time to repeal the marriage amendment that passed into law in North Carolina, he states that the Supreme Court ruling will negate the amendment, and its only a matter of time until gay marriages will be legal everywhere.
His other concerns are abortion and debt. The morning-after pill will make abortions unnecessary, as will funding Planned Parenthood clinics. The debt issue will not be solved by downsizing jobs and cutting back on unemployment benefits.
Its time the government in Raleigh listens to the people peacefully protesting in the street below them. They will know that cutting funding for education, universal health care, caring for the environment, womens rights, the mentally ill and the elderly is disastrous to us all, as is not creating a path to citizenship for those immigrants contributing to our country as law-abiding residents in the U.S. for years.
Caring for all should be the priority of our government at all levels and something we can all agree on. Listen to the people. All the people. (See Matthew 25:35-40.)

DuPont bridge
To the editor: The most fascinating part of the dedication of the new pedestrian bridge in DuPont State Forest was Republican Agricultural Commissioner Steve Troxlers relating of the way he carried out Republican Gov. Pat McCrorys emphasis on government effectiveness.
After the Republican legislature transferred forest management to the Agriculture Department, Commissioner Troxler found that the funds had been allocated for the bridge. But even though it was a critical need, it was to be years before the bridge was expected to be completed.
He told his folks and the NCDOT that he wanted the bridge ready for dedication on July 1, just a few months away at the time. He reiterated the expectation each time people told him it couldnt be done. They got the message. They found a way, and the bridge was dedicated July 1!
Its good to see that government can get done things that are needed, and that Republicans show the way!

Tone it down
To the editor: Screaming does not equate to singing, and louder does not mean better. The musicals at the Flat Rock Playhouse, despite wonderful sets, costumes and dancing, are ruined for me because of overamplification of the music.
On the other hand, the music at the Brevard Music Center is fabulous.
I dont think this is a case of old versus young patrons in that both age ranges are well represented at both venues.
Well-attended performances dont necessarily mean that a majority prefers heavy amplification. Perhaps the Playhouse could poll its audiences after a musical performance and ask if the amplification is just right, too loud or too soft.

DOT Seeks $3.2 Billion in Transit Infrastructure for FY 2012
DOT's transit plans call for increased rail and bus options, like this public hybrid bus.
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) announced funding recommendations on February 15 for 10 new capital transit construction projects under President Obama's fiscal year (FY) 2012 budget request. The budget proposal included a record $3.2 billion in funding for 28 transit construction projects across the United States designed to reduce energy consumption and curb air pollution.
The spending plan recommends investing $569.3 million in 10 new transit construction projects, including rail and bus rapid transit projects in Arizona, California, Florida, Michigan, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Washington. An additional 11 projects that were recommended for funding in previous years but have not yet received federal commitments are being recommended for $1.4 billion in the FY 2012 budget. In addition to the transit construction projects that have not yet been funded, the budget provides $835.4 million for the continued funding of seven additional rail transit projects already operational or under construction in Dallas, New York, Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Northern Virginia. See the DOT press release, a list of recommended projects, and the Federal Transit Administration's annual report.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jozy Altidore insists his six-month scoreless streak never bothered him.
No sleepless nights. No feelings of frustration. Not even a bit of worry it would stretch into the World Cup.
His coach believes otherwise. Whatever the case, Altidore and the United States won't have to deal with that storyline in Brazil.
Altidore scored two goals to lead the United States over Nigeria 2-1 Saturday night in the Americans' World Cup send-off match.
Altidore tapped in Fabian Johnson's cross in the 31st minute on a play that started with an Alejandro Bedoya run, stopping a 27-match scoreless streak for club and country with his first goal since Dec. 4 for Sunderland against Chelsea.
"To be honest, it makes no difference," Altidore said. "I don't know if it's weird to you, but it's not weird to me. I've played for this team for such a long time that I think it's my responsibility to kind of help the team in other ways, tracking back and just being somebody now that the other guys can look up to. And I take that very serious."
He doubled the lead in the 68th, running onto Michael Bradley's looping 30-yard pass over the defense. Altidore took a touch with each foot as he cut inside of Nigeria captain Joseph Yobo, then beat goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama to the near post with a right-footed shot from 12 yards for his 23rd international goal.
"The second goal was world class, no doubt about it," U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann said. "You heard the other coaches of the last friendlies, especially the Turkish coach who said, 'This (guy) is a handful.' Hopefully we can keep him as a handful going down to Brazil now."
Klinsmann stopped short of calling Altidore's performance a much-needed boost but said it was "a wonderful message" and gave the player "a big smile at the right time now."
"I think it will give him a lot of confidence," Klinsmann said. "It's always a tough period when you don't score for a striker. And everybody around you let's you know that. You get more and more anxious about the situation. ... You work harder and harder, which he did the last three-and-a-half weeks in camp. ... And then you just wish, you know, that the moment comes and you put it in there and you go start to be your old self again.
"But you've got to go through that working process. That's what I always told him, 'You're not getting it for free. You've got to go and work for it.' He got sharper and sharper, fitter and fitter. We knew that if he gets the chances, he will put one in."
U.S. goalkeeper Tim Howard said of Altidore: "He's shown he can score goals in bunches for us. Jozy is just fantastic. He just shows how he can turn it on. "
The U.S. was undefeated in its send-off series for the first time since it started in 2002, beating the African champions after a 2-0 victory over Azerbaijan and a 2-1 win over Turkey.
Making their seventh straight World Cup appearance, the Americans head to Brazil on Sunday night and open June 16 against Ghana, the team that eliminated them from the last two tournaments. They follow with games against fourth-ranked Portugal and second-ranked Germany.
Howard made his 100th international appearance, becoming the 15th American male to reach the century mark and tying Tony Meola for second-most appearances by a U.S. goalkeeper, two behind Kasey Keller.
Victor Moses converted an 86th-minute penalty kick for Nigeria after he was knocked over in the penalty area by Matt Besler.
A crowd of 52,033 watched an exhibition that began with an 84-degree temperature and 65 percent humidity that should be similar to the climate in Brazil.

June 22: vs. Portugal at Manaus, Brazil, 2:30 p.m. ESPN

To be honest I don't remember much of this show or details pertaining to even the journey to/from. I do remember the weather this night was much better than the next night, as well as a lightning storm over Denver during the Squirming Coil encore. It seems like the piano solo outro during Coil has conjured up more than one storm at shows (see:7/28/98, 6/12/10) I've attended, and everytime it happens I experience déja vu.
Anyways, as I relisten to this concert I am certain that the songs I get the most enjoyment out of now, are probably not the same as when I attended. This Theme From the Bottom is really good considering this is the third one ever. A lot of emotion in this version and Trey's solo doesn't disappoint. The Antelope climax is different as it kind of dissolves into the Rye Rye Rocco part as compared to the usual skreetching peak.
Second set for me now is all about the Acoustic Army and this beautiful Slave. The Wedge also sounds great on these AUDs. Mike's bass sounds so deep at Red Rocks. Anyone that has seen Phish at Red Rocks knows that sound. That earth-rumbling, deep, gutoral feeling. You can pick it out on any audience recording and it's like, yeah, I remember that feeling.
Nice Coil encore as I mentioned before.
The Marc Nutter AUDs of this on the spreadsheet are sonically delicious. Or, they make SonicSense(.com)... if you get my drift. Marc's a good guy, sold me my first mics. Thanks Marc
3 star show

Career Center > Careers in Statistics > Which Industries Employ Statisticians
Risk Assessment
Are you concerned about the increasing levels of green house gasses in the atmosphere, the decline in the coral reefs, the presence of toxic chemicals in the environment, or the quality of the water you drink? Do you enjoy working on complex problems? If so, then the field of environmental risk assessment may be right for you.
Environmental risk assessment has grown in the last 30-40 years as people have realized their actions can have adverse effects on the environment. The publication in 1962 of Rachel Carson's landmark book, Silent Spring, describing the hazards to wildlife of the widely used pesticide DDT was a wake-up call that chemicals may have negative, as well as positive, effects on the environment (including humans).
The 1970s saw the passage of environmental protection legislation such as the Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, and Superfund (Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act). All this legislation required risk assessments.
Risk assessment is the characterization of the potential adverse health effects resulting from human and ecological exposure to environmental hazards. The risk assessment process, which includes the following steps, is complex:
Hazard identification is the analysis of an environmental situation to ascertain if there is the potential for exposure of an organism (including a human) or ecosystem to an environmental stressor that may cause harm.
Dose-response assessment is the process of characterizing the relation between the dose of an agent received by a receptor (organism or ecosystem) and the incidence of an adverse effect on that receptor.
Exposure assessment is the process of measuring or estimating the intensity, frequency, or duration of human or ecological exposure to agents currently in the environment or that may be present in the future.
Risk characterization is the process of estimating the incidence of an adverse effect under the conditions of exposure described in the exposure assessment. It also includes the narrative description of the meaning of the assessment, including uncertainties in the preceding steps.
Each of the steps requires the collection of data (e.g., lead concentrations in soil or water) and/or the use of mathematical models (e.g., those that describe the movement of contaminants in the environment or define the cancer incidence from exposure to levels of uranium).
Risk assessments have become part of the analysis a proposed chemical or other product must undergo before it may be placed on the market.
A successful environmental risk assessment requires the talents of many academic disciplines-chemistry, physics, biology, ecology, geology, hydrology, and engineering. Because of their skills in analyzing data and computations, statisticians can play a role in each of the steps above.
Additionally, a statistician can play a key role in the process because of the complexity of a risk assessment. Data or modeling uncertainty in any of the steps may have a significant effect on the results and meaning of the assessment. Therefore, the description of uncertainty in the assessment, which is a skill area of statisticians, becomes a crucial part of communicating the results of a complex assessment.
People who perform risk assessments are employed by all those dealing with environmental issues: government regulatory agencies, companies whose work may affect the environment, and nongovernmental organizations involved in environmental protection issues.

Hello all,
first time here, though I'm a longtime fan of this program.
I mostly haven't had any problems with PS3MS, or I managed to solve them fiddling with settings.
(Cinavia is the only problem I couldn't solve, but I stopped trying)
Now, I have 2 (big ?) problems.
Firstly, I cannot play Hero (2002) with chinese audio. If I leave english audio as default, all is ok, but I wanna hear the movie as it was shot, in chinese (mandarin?).
English is AC3 and is ok, but chinese is in DTS, maybe that's the reason it doesn't play?
I tried connecting PS3 with optical directly to my homecinema, or with HDMI to TV, and TV with optical to homecinema.
i tried setting audio to chi (chinese), or cmn and yue for mandarin, but no sound at all.
I tried to use transcode then, but also didn't work.
So, I'd really be thankful for some input.
Also, I cannot watch Girls season 2 (both episodes). Sound is ok during "previously on", but after that it goes like 20x times slower, like it's in slowmo.
Thanks in advance

"I thought the card turned out the way I visioned it to be in my head. I am very glad I chose Wedding Paper Divas. The only problem I have is trying to get to the RSVP site to check on the info. Other than that, I would definitely use them again. The chat people were very helpful and went out of their way to walk me through some of the questions I had. Very pleased with the company."
"It was hard to find 50th Anniversary invitations, and then we found Wedding Paper Divas. The invitations was just what we were looking for, and we didn't need that many. I was amazed how fast the invitations came in the mail, and how stylish the invitation was. I will order again from Wedding Paper Divas."
"Excellent customer service and quality product all the way. When I requested a custom back side to coordinate with the front of my invitation, instead of the standard white, I honestly didn't think that it could be done, let alone with out incurring any additional fees, but they made it happen free of charge and my invitations came out absolutely beautiful. Thank you!!"
"This 40th Anniversary Invitation turned out beautifully with the help from the website to place the photo and information on the card. We will definitely use Wedding Paper Divas in the future for other invitation needs."
"I love the Joyful Flourish design I used on my parents' 50th Anniversary invitations. It is just a little fancy but not over the top. The paper is thick and will make a great keepsake for the guests. The staff even fixed my photo so the background was cleaner and uncluttered. That really helped my parents to stand out in the picture. I am very pleased with the product. Even my picky brother gave it his seal of approval."
