Top Moment #1: Women's Cross Country Takes Fourth Title in Five Years
The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi women's cross country team clinched its fourth title in five years at the Southland Conference Championships on Oct. 31, edging UTSA by five points in Nacogdoches, Texas, at the Piney Woods Country Club.
"The women went in with expectations that they were going to do well," head coach Shawn Flanagan said. "We have a winning tradition here and the women have lived up to it. The four seniors went out with rings and that's the way we like it to be. It sets a good tone for the girls coming up."
The women's team finished with 65 points and was led by senior Kristine Burciaga, who finished in second place with a time of 21:42.5. Senior Julia Sambu finished three spots behind in fifth place with a time of 21:53.3. Senior Sarah Kimaiyo was the third Islander to cross the line in 13th place with a time of 22:03.6. Junior BreAnna Briggs finished six spots behind Kimaiyo in 19th place with a time of 22:23.5 Senior Danielle Higgins recorded a 26th-place finish crossing the line with a time of 22:34.7 Junior Melissa Jones finished in 42nd place followed by freshmen Jennifer Ramirez and Shelby Polasek, who finished in 45th and 50th, respectively.
"We had a setback with Cecy Gonzalez being sick but Kristine, Julia and Sarah drove on through," Flanagan said. "Kristine had a tremendous race coming from a walk-on girl as a freshman and now finishing as the runner-up with a shot to compete at nationals."
The Islanders edged UTSA, who finished with 70 points, followed by Lamar (92 points) in third, Texas State (115 points) in fourth and UT Arlington (123 points) rounded out the top five. The five points that separated the Islanders and UTSA was the smallest winning margin at the SLC Championships, since the Islanders clinched their first title in 2007 over Lamar by four points.
The Islanders have won a total of eight titles as a team out of 11 conference meets. Before joining the Southland, the Islanders won four as a Division I independent conference.

Ease of Use
I've been using it for 2 months. I have, however, had some dizziness/vertigo symptoms with the use of product. Definitely noticed hair growth but not as much as I would have liked. Can still see the visible outline of my bald area. Maybe it will fill in more over time. Not sure how long I will continue use as I am concerned about dizziness spells.

Having used Rogaine regularly for over 3 months, my crown has thickened substantially. It feels as full as on the side of my head. I have regularly applied twice a day, never missed one. There is some stickiness to the hair especially after the second application, but it really works for me.

6.1-15 Assault in the Third Degree (Deadly Weapon) -- § 53a-61 (a) (3)
Revised to April 23, 2010
The defendant is charged [in count ___] with assault in the third degree. The statute defining this offense reads in pertinent part as follows:
a person is guilty of assault in the third degree when with criminal negligence, (he/she) causes physical injury to another person by means of a deadly weapon, a dangerous instrument or an electronic defense weapon.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this charge, the state must prove the following elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
Element 1 - Criminal negligence
The first element is that the defendant acted with criminal negligence. <Insert Criminal Negligence, Instruction 2.3-5.>
Element 2 - Caused physical
The second element is that the defendant caused physical injury to another person. This means that the defendant's conduct was the proximate cause of the person's injuries. You must find it proved beyond a reasonable doubt that <insert name of person injured> was injured as a result of the actions of the defendant. <See Proximate Cause, Instruction 2.6-1.>
"Physical injury" is defined as impairment of physical condition or pain. It is a reduced ability to act as one would otherwise have acted. The law does not require that the injury be serious. It may be minor.
Element 3 - Deadly weapon or
dangerous instrument
The third element is that the injury was caused by means of (a deadly weapon / a dangerous instrument / an electronic defense weapon). <Insert the appropriate definition:>
"Deadly weapon" means any weapon, whether loaded or unloaded, from which a shot may be discharged, or a switchblade knife, gravity knife, billy, blackjack, bludgeon, or metal knuckles. If the weapon is a firearm, it may be unloaded, but it must be in such condition that a shot may be discharged from it. Thus, if the weapon is loaded but not in working order, it is not a deadly weapon. If the weapon is unloaded but in working order, it is a deadly weapon.
"Dangerous instrument" means any instrument, article or substance which, under the circumstances in which it is used or attempted or threatened to be used, is capable of causing death or serious physical injury. "Serious physical injury" means physical injury which creates a substantial risk of death, or which causes serious disfigurement, serious impairment of health or serious loss or impairment of the function of any bodily organ. It is important to note that the article need not be inherently dangerous; all that is required is that the article was capable of causing death or serious physical injury under the circumstances in which it was used. Any article or substance, without limitation and even though harmless under normal use, may be found by you to be a dangerous instrument if, under the circumstances of its use or threatened or attempted use, it is capable of producing serious physical injury or death. The state need not prove that in fact death or serious physical injury resulted, only that the instrument had that potential under the circumstances.
"Electronic defense weapon" means a weapon which by electronic impulse or current is capable of immobilizing a person temporarily, but is not capable of inflicting death or serious physical injury.
In summary, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that 1) the defendant was criminally negligent, 2) the defendant caused physical injury to <insert name of person injured >, and 3) the defendant caused the injury by means of a (deadly weapon / dangerous instrument / electronic defense weapon).
If you unanimously find that the state
has proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the elements of the crime of
assault in the third degree, then you shall find the defendant guilty. On the
other hand, if you unanimously find that the state has failed to prove beyond a
reasonable doubt any of the elements, you shall then find the defendant not

Outdoor TV icon Babe Winkelman giving back to fishing, hunting
Safari Club fundraiser will include TV show hunt with Babe Winkelman
Babe Winkelman owned a construction company in 1975 and was doing well, but his passion for hunting and fishing soon took his life in another direction.
Winkelman sold his shares in the construction business to chase his dream of being in the fishing and hunting industry with his own TV show. Today his shows "Babe Winkelman's Good Fishing" and "Babe Winkelman's Outdoor Secrets" are among the longest-running and best of their kind on TV. They include a segment featuring his wife, Kris, in "Kris's Kitchen," where the family's fish or game harvest is turned into some tasty, gourmet meals.
"I feel I'm very blessed to have had an opportunity to create my life and do what I've done with it," Winkelman said earlier this week after a blizzard drove him and his crew off the ice in Green Bay, Wisc. "No one has given me anything. I've worked my butt off all my life. I love what I do. It's not like a job. It's nothing for me in the fall to average 110 hours a week filming and editing and do it for seven straight weeks, seven days a week. No one could pay me enough to do that. But this is what I love to do."
This will be Winkelman's 34th year on TV. He realized early on that he needed to incorporate hunting into his shows to keep his crew working all year. In 1989 he re-introduced hunting on TV after most in the industry felt it would never happen after ABC-TV's "American Sportsman" left the air amid protests from animal-rights extremists. Winkelman said a CBS-TV documentary by Dan Rather called "The Guns of Autumn," started the death knell for TV hunting shows, but Winkelman convinced influential people in the hunting and shooting industry to take a chance on his all outdoors show.
"In the fall of 1975, Dan Rather portrayed all hunters as a bunch of, side-shooting, animal-poaching, drunken slobs," Winkelman said. "The outcry was so incredible, it forced "American Sportsman" off the air. Word was we couldn't put hunting on TV. We could show people getting killed, but we couldn't show animals getting killed in hunting shows. In 1989 there was no hunting on TV at all, but I brought it back."
Winkelman will be in San Diego next week as part of his mission to give something back to the traditions of hunting and fishing. Each year he contributes to four major fundraisers. In San Diego, he has donated a hunt, "Babe Winkelman's Ontario Package," to the San Diego Chapter of Safari Club International. On Saturday night starting at 4 p.m. at the Town and Country Convention Center, the six-day archery hunt in Ontario, Canada for a potential record-book whitetail deer will be part of the fund-raising dinner one of America's most successful SCI chapters has put on for the last 34 years. Winkelman's hunt will help raise money for habitat and help in the fight for hunter's rights and access.
Winkelman said he and Dr. Gerry Faust, past president of the local SCI chapter, are close friends. They worked on the donated hunt to make it as attractive as it could be. Border Country Outfitters in Emo, Ontario will host it. Winkelman said he and his family have hunted with them several times. Last year, his wife, Kris, shot the largest bear in camp.
"I'll hunt with them," Winkelman said. "They kill some really big bucks up to 190 score. We'll also be filming, so it's not only a several thousand dollar hunt. It costs me $4,000 a day to film and we'll be there the better part of a week filming. That doesn't count the editing."
The San Diego Chapter of SCI's "Auction '13: Expedition Wild Americas" is Saturday, Feb. 9, starting at 4 p.m. in the Grand Exhibit Hall in the Town & Country Convention Center, 500 Hotel Circle North. Go to www.sandiegosci.org for information and to register on-line or call (858) 481-9292.

So a tiny little Chinese lap dog with a manhood insecurity large enough to demand a nuclear-tipped "missile" extension screams like the kid in the shopping cart for more candy and we're supposed to be worried?
America is expected to jump out of the Afghan frying pan straight into the North Korean flame of flatulence while we cower in our bomb shelters and the rest of the sane world pretends this is OK?
Excuse me, but, um, no.
Kim Jong-un is not Darth Vader or even a vertically challenged Jabba the Hut with his blood-curdling screams for relevance not unlike the fat baby on an airplane. He's more like a rebellious Ewok overcome with pretend grief about his dead father and anxiety over his lack of height in a tall man's world.
This is childish saber rattling with no more actual threat to the United States than if Powderhorn threatened to start selling their own version of the Epic Pass unless Vail Resorts capitulated to their demands of revenue sharing.
It's just silly.
Then again, I could be wrong.
We are indeed - us Americans - portrayed globally as a pretty stupid bunch from time to time.
A quick search of headlines on the Drudge Report shows that some apparently are obsessed with how many baskets Obama can make during a basketball-themed fundraiser with disabled kids and the calorie count of Michelle's lunch with homeless veterans. Maybe it's just me, but that does not seem very important or relevant to anything. Anything at all.
Recently a survey of Americans was conducted by Public Policy Polling that found almost one in four believe President Obama "might" be the antichrist (whatever that means), one in three believe that all climate change scenarios are fabricated, and almost half believe that a bunch of super-rich guys are hell-bent on setting up a new world order to control the world and maintain their evil capitalist ways.
Apparently they polled 2,500 idiots from the (get ready, here comes the stereotype) Deep South on a Sunday without football.
For further proof, while Lil' Kim is screaming for attention in North Korea, students at Wilcox County High School near Macon, Ga., still have segregated proms (one for whites and the other for "others") and two elected GOP geniuses in North Carolina proposed a bill (sponsored by seven "others," but let's take a wild guess as to their skin color) to allow them to establish a state religion.
One can only assume it would be Islam.
To be perfectly honest, these morons concern me much more than North Korea's version of Eric Cartman (from South Park, for the uninitiated).
But still, what if the little runt's not bluffing this time? If China wants peace and prosperity in their general vicinity, then I say they should be the main government dealing with it, not us. It's their border, not ours.
We have a $17 trillion debt and enough problems of our own to even consider such a foolhardy act of another war. We've sent our ships and planes into the region just in case, postponed missile tests that could be misconstrued as provocation, and besides, we have no desire to bomb a starving people. But however this plays out with their missile "test" tomorrow, I just hope the American response doesn't come from the 175 idiots (7 percent) from those polled who believe the moon landing was faked.
I'm getting really, really tired of these people.

Conflict is going to be a part of your life—as long as you have relationships, a job, or dry cleaning to be picked up. Bracing yourself against it won't make it go away, but if you approach it consciously, you can navigate it in way that not only honors everyone involved but makes it a source of deep insight as well. Seasoned mediator Diane Hamilton provides the skill set you need to engage conflict with wisdom and compassion, and even—sometimes—to be grateful for it. She teaches us how to:
- Cultivate the mirror-like quality of attention as your base
- Identify three personal conflict styles and determine which ones you fall into
- Recognize the three fundamental perspectives in any conflict situation and learn to inhabit each of them
- Turn conflicts in families, at work, and in every kind of interpersonal situation into win-win situations
News & Reviews
"There is perhaps no greater challenge in our personal relationships than conflict. In this wonderfully engaging, perceptive, and wise little book, Diane Musho Hamilton shows us how to negotiate this delicate terrain with skillful means."
—William Ury, coauthor of Getting to Yes and author of The Power of a Positive No
"A wonderful, down-to-earth, and very useful book on conflict resolution. I had my first 'integral' awakening when I realized that every conflict and seeming opposition was actually an opportunity to find a deeper unity of perspectives, and it is this same leading-edge integral vision that guides Diane's terrific book. Read it professionally, read it as a layperson, read it for work, read it for relationships, read it for your own inner conflicts—but read it for sure, and find a genuine peace and contentment under all of your seemingly intractable conflicts. You'll be delighted you did!"
—Ken Wilber, author of The Integral Vision: A Very Short Introduction to the Revolutionary Integral Approach to Life, God, the Universe, and Everything
—Jan Chozen Bays, author of Mindful Eating and How to Train a Wild Elephant
Chris Grosso of the Indie Spiritualist interviews Diane Musho Hamilton about how she came to the spiritual path, and how working with conflict is a part of that path.

There are so many different traditions for Thanksgiving stuffing or dressing (including whether or not the turkey is stuffed or the dressing is baked alongside the turkey). One of the more common recipes for stuffing or dressing is Cornbread and Sausage. It's a savory/sweet side dish with Southern roots that's happily eaten at Thanksgiving tables all over the country.
Let's gather round the FoodFacts.com Thanksgiving table as we alter the traditional Cornbread and Sausage Stuffing a bit to make it a lighter, healthier and less caloric side dish to the main attraction. O.k., we didn't just alter the stuffing recipe a little … we took the sausage completely out of the equation, while still allowing you and your guests to enjoy a savory and satisfying stuffing experience!
The history or stuffing (or dressing) may predate Roman civilization. The earliest recipes for stuffing can be found in a Roman cookbook that was written in the late 4th century AD. Recorded in this book were recipes for stuffed chicken, rabbit, pig and dormouse (which, believe it or not, was considered a delicacy in ancient Rome.) In these ancient Roman recipes, featured ingredients in stuffing were vegetables, herbs, nuts and ancient grains like spelt. It was not unusual to find various organ meats included like liver and brains.
In England prior to the sixteenth century, stuffing was called "farce". Then in the Victorian era, it became known as dressing. Because stuffing was common in England prior to the establishment of the American colonies, it is easy to assume that the Pilgrims, after deciding to make the turkey the focal point of the first Thanksgiving feast, would have naturally chosen to stuff it.
And undoubtedly, after that first Thanksgiving, stuffing recipes have evolved pretty dramatically. Cornbread or white bread? Stuffed inside the bird, or baked alongside? Eggs or no eggs? There are plenty of competing methods for preparing the much-loved and traditional Thanksgiving stuffing. Cornbread and Sausage Stuffing recipes abound and this is one of the most popular preparations at Thanksgiving in millions of homes.
Sadly, though, the typical Cornbread and Sausage Stuffing boasts over 500 calories per serving, with over 38 grams of fat (oh my) and over 900 mg of sodium. That nutritional data isn't exactly side dish worthy. Put the stuffing next to your turkey and gravy, mashed potatoes, candied yams, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie and the numbers might actually resemble two or three full days of food consumption!
Stuffing really needs to lighten up a little. So here's our suggestion:
6 corn muffins (prepared from a good organic mix, like Shiloh Farms), crumbled
2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion diced
2 large diced Portobello mushrooms
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon dried thyme
2 teaspoons dried sage
Half teaspoon dried rosemary
2 cups hot vegetable broth
1 tablespoon almond butter
Salt and Pepper to taste
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Crumble the corn muffins into a large mixing bowl
3. Melt two tablespoons butter in a large sauté pan
4. Sauté vegetables and garlic until softened – 4 to 5 minutes
5. Add vegetables to crumbled corn muffins
6. Stir in the herbs gently, evenly distributing in the muffin-vegetable mixture
7. Stir the almond butter into the vegetable broth
8. Pour over the muffin-vegetable mixture a little at a time until moistened throughout. Use additional broth if necessary. Mixture should be moist, not overly wet and no liquid should be evident at the bottom of the bowl.
9. Lightly oil a 9 x 13 baking dish. Transfer dressing into dish and smooth the top with the back of a spoon. Cover dish with foil.
10. Bake for 30 minutes covered. Remove foil and return to the oven to bake for another 30 minutes until brown.
11. (Or you can stuff your turkey with the unbaked mixture and roast your turkey as usual – adding additional time per pound for the stuffing as per your roasting instructions.)
Portobello mushrooms add a savory flavor to any dish and make for a very enjoyable stuffing without the additional fat and calories from sausage. This stuffing is about 100 calories per serving, only 4.4 grams of fat and 45 mg. of sodium.
While Cornbread Portobello Mushroom Stuffing certainly puts a new twist on tradition, it really is a rich and flavorful dish. Unusually "meaty" for a meatless side, you'll find that this recipe makes for a great inside-the-bird stuffing or an equally great baked dressing.
Our invitation to dinner will be open until Thanksgiving Day! All month long, FoodFacts.com will be taking a look at better preparations for all our favorite holiday foods. By the time we reach the end of November, we'll have a great meal planned that we'll all be able to enjoy that fits easily within our healthy lifestyle! And don't worry … we aren't going to forget dessert!

Horses competing in the $1 million purse race will be subject to early out-of-competition blood testing for banned substances and will be required to be on Belmont Park's grounds by September 25. In addition, horses will be subject to 24 hour monitoring at their trainers' own barns and stalls on the grounds.

BERKELEY -- A veteran UC Berkeley police officer shot himself in the leg Tuesday morning as he was getting ready for work in the department's locker room, police said.
"He was holstering his weapon and shot himself in the leg," said Police Capt. Margo Bennett. "It appears it's a straightforward injury and everything is going to be fine."
The officer was taken from the police station in the basement of Sproul Hall to Highland Hospital in Oakland with "non-life threatening" injuries said UC Berkeley Police spokesman Lt. Eric Tejada.
The officer, a 20-year veteran Tejada did not name, shot himself with a Heckler & Koch semi-automatic pistol, he said.
"There were other people in the room at the time, and I have to say our guys did an amazing job," Tejada said. "They jumped right into action and comforted him and tended to his injuries and waited until the Berkeley fire department paramedics got there."
Tejada said the gun the officer shot himself does not have a safety mechanism.
"It looks like it might have something to do with the equipment," said Tejada, who declined to be more specific as to the reason why the gun went off.
Tejada said the investigation would be done internally and the department would not call in a team from the Alameda County District Attorney's office as it does with other officer-involved shootings.

Heart Disease Health Center
Heart Disease and the Echocardiogram
In this article
What Should I Do to Prepare for a Stress Echocardiogram? continued...
Do not take the following heart medications for 24 hours before your test unless your doctor tells you otherwise, or unless the medication is needed to treat chest discomfort:
- Beta-blockers (for example, Tenormin, Lopressor, Toprol, or Inderal)
- Isosorbide dinitrate (for example, Isordil, Sorbitrate)
- Isosorbide mononitrate (for example, Ismo, Indur, Monoket)
- Nitroglycerin (for example, Deponit, Nitrostat, Nitropatches)
Your doctor may also ask you to stop taking other heart medications on the day of your test. If you have any questions about your medications, ask your doctor. Do not discontinue any medication without first talking with your doctor.
If you use an inhaler for your breathing, please bring it with you.
What Happens During the Dobutamine-Induced Stress Echocardiogram?
When getting a dobutamine-induced stress test, a technician will place electrodes (small, flat, sticky patches) on your chest. The electrodes are attached to an electrocardiograph monitor (ECG or EKG) that charts your heart's electrical activity during the test.
An intravenous line (IV) will be inserted into a vein in your arm so the dobutamine medication can be delivered directly into your bloodstream. The technician will perform a resting echocardiogram, measure your resting heart rate, and take your blood pressure. The doctor or nurse will administer the dobutamine into the IV while the technician continues to obtain echo images. The medication will cause your heart to react as if you were exercising: your heart rate will rise and you may feel it beating more strongly. It may cause a warm, flushing feeling and in some cases, a mild headache.
At regular intervals, the lab personnel will ask how you are feeling. Please tell them if you feel chest, arm, or jaw pain or discomfort, shortness of breath, dizziness or lightheadedness, or any other unusual symptoms.
The lab personnel will watch for any changes on the ECG monitor that suggest the test should be stopped. The IV will be removed from your arm once all of the medication has entered your bloodstream.
The appointment will take about 60 minutes. The actual infusion time is usually about 15 minutes. After the test, plan to stay in the waiting room until all of the symptoms you may have experienced during the test have passed.
Your doctor will discuss the test results with you.

News 12 First at Five / Monday, July 16, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Wendy Dutch lives in a constant state of fear.
"He threatened to show up at my house and take care of me. I think he may have wanted to kill me at one point if I didn't do what he wanted me to do," she said through a shudder.
Dutch says a man has been sending her unwanted phone messages.
"The first time it was, 'Oh, I want to be there for you because you have cancer,' and the second time it was, 'You're gonna do this for me and if you don't this is going to happen,'" she said as she revealed how the messages quickly changed tone.
According to Georgia law, that would be harassment.
"If you're getting a lot of phone calls, people calling you and you've told them not to call anymore, they continue to call, that's where it would fall into harassment," explained Richmond County Sgt. Ronald Sylvester.
Dutch is not the only one dealing with this. It happens more than you may realize.
"There's been an increase in harassing phone calls and that's because it's easier for people to get cellphones and stuff, so there's more ways for people to communicate," Sylvester said.
The punishment for harassing phone calls is a misdemeanor charge, but officers say it's a tricky offense to prosecute.
"It's usually a he-say, she-say incident where a lot of times you don't have the proof," Sylvester said. In these cases, there's not a whole lot law enforcement can do.
"We cannot block the calls, so a lot of times it ends up being on the victim to take those steps to help protect themselves, and then we can help them proceed with prosecution,"Sylvester said.
That means recording the conversations, keeping the texts and even getting records from your phone company can all help prove your case.
"No woman deserves to go through this, married or single. It's scary, and it does a lot to you mentally and physically," Dutch said.
Dutch has not been able to prosecute because of the difference in laws between Georgia and South Carolina, but she is working on getting a restraining order.

2.5-4 Testimony of Police Officials
Revised to December 1, 2007
Police officials have testified in this case. You must determine the credibility of police officials in the same way and by the same standards as you would evaluate the testimony of any other witness. The testimony of a police official is entitled to no special or exclusive weight merely because it comes from a police official. You should recall (his/her) demeanor on the stand and manner of testifying, and weigh and balance it just as carefully as you would the testimony of any other witness.
You should neither believe nor disbelieve the testimony of a police official just because (he/she) is a police official.
It is preferable to give
appropriate emphasis to the instruction on police testimony by devoting a
separate instruction to that subject. State v. Banks, 59 Conn. App. 112,
132- 35, cert. denied, 254 Conn. 950 (2000); State v. Nieves, 36 Conn.

With wider screens and better cameras, these devices aren't just for hearing anymore, but placing them too close or inside of a crib can be downright dangerous. (WRDW-TV / July 23, 2012)
News 12 This Morning / Monday, July 23, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- When it comes to the safety of your toddler, every parent wants to be there 24/7.
Better technology enables many parents to have an extra set of eyes and ears through baby monitors.
Rene Hopkins, with Safe Kids led by GHSU, said, "They are placing them closer and closer to the crib, so they feel like they get a better visual image."
With wider screens and better cameras, these devices aren't just for hearing anymore, but placing them too close or inside of a crib can be downright dangerous.
"Anything that is placed within the child's reach, they are going to reach for it -- they are curious by nature," Hopkins said.
Since 2002, seven babies have been strangled by baby monitor cords and three toddlers had close calls. The victims were as young as 6 months to 20 months old.
"The cords on these monitors are longer than 7 inches. Anything longer than 7 inches is a strangulation hazard for a child," Hopkins said.
As Hopkins with demonstrates with a doll which represents a 16-month-old, she shows us children can easily reach out for a cord, even when it's outside of the crib.
"Remember when you put a child in a crib to sleep, it's the one time we expect them to be outside of our direct observation," she said.
This month, the Consumer Product Safety Commission launched a new campaign to warn parents about the danger through a new website, and they are also urging baby monitor manufacturers to label their cords.
"Now that the issue has been brought to light, there will be may be some design changes," Hopkins added.
Whether it's a basic $19 or a fancier cordless version that can run you upwards of of $99, the threat still remains the same with cords powering or charging the device.
"Some parents will read every single word, other parents will just assume and plug it in," Hopkins said.
Hopkins advises to keep cords at least 3 feet away to make room for a baby safe zone. Free warning labels are available for parents.

Fannie, Freddie Fees Would Fund Expanded Visa Effort
By Alan Zibel and Corey Boles
Lawmakers have found an unusual way to pay for an expanded visa program for foreign graduate students: tap Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
House lawmakers voted Friday to allow more foreign students with advanced U.S.-earned degrees to remain in the country and work. The student-visa legislation passed the House with mostly Republican support, although 27 Democrats crossed party lines to back the bill. The bill creates 50,000 new visas for highly trained foreigners.
If enacted, the bill could cost the government $1.5 billion, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, because of federal health-care spending related to the immigrants.
The bill's Republican backers sought to cover this cost by raising loan-guarantee fees that government-controlled mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac charge mortgage borrowers. This move has upset banking- and real-estate-industry lobbyists, who see it as a dangerous precedent.
The fees "are supposed to be used to help offset the risk inherent in providing mortgages, and any increases to those fees should be used for that purpose," said David Stevens, chief executive of the Mortgage Bankers Association.
Rep. Jeb Hensarling of Texas, the incoming chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, supported the bill but was unhappy with the funding source.
"While I strongly support guarantee fee increases to allow the private sector to compete with (Fannie and Freddie) on a more level playing field, directing these fees to unrelated spending is bad policy," Mr. Hensarling said. "Moving forward, I am committed to ensuring that any future guarantee fee increases are not misdirected."
A year ago, Congress used Fannie and Freddie to pay for a temporary cut in payroll taxes by increasing guarantee fees for 10 years. The visa bill would keep those higher fees in place for another year.
While the measure likely won't be taken up by the Democrat-controlled Senate, it is an initial salvo in a wider debate over the country's estimated 11 million illegal immigrants.
Most Democrats opposed the bill because it also contains a provision that would end a lottery that allows 50,000 aspiring immigrants to win the right to reside in the U.S. each year.

The advent of social media and a 24-hour news cycle have made it all but impossible for NFL players to maintain their privacy, especially when it involves legal matters.
ESPN analyst Andrew Brandt, who spent 10 years as a vice president for the Green Bay Packers, recalled some legends of the franchise voicing their relief at having played in the days when a transgression would go unreported.
"I remember one former player saying, 'I'm glad they didn't have cellphone cameras when I played,' " Brandt said. "That's not an excuse for anything that happens now. Players know more now than they knew in the past. They know how scrutinized they are, so they should have a heightened awareness to that."
When 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith was arrested for allegedly making a bomb threat at Los Angeles International Airport on April 13, a cellphone video of Smith talking with law enforcement was on the website TMZ within hours of the incident.
Troy Vincent, the NFL executive director of football operations, declined to discuss the Smith incident directly, but in general believes nonstop exposure can be a good thing that comes out of a bad circumstance.
"Those things that happen in the dark that come to light can allow us to address an issue or a challenge we'd never face if it wasn't captured on a phone or by video," Vincent said. "If we see someone getting captured, getting handcuffed, it allows us to say, 'OK, what can we do?' And for the individual to think, 'Maybe it's time (to seek help).' "
NFL Network analyst Charley Casserly, a former NFL general manager with the Texans and Redskins, said there's no question more issues become public, but he is concerned over instances when there isn't enough information to draw a conclusion.
"We might have headlines that we learn are not factual as time goes on," Casserly said. "And then it gets emphasized more because of the age we live in."
When 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick was named in a TMZ report on April 11 as having participated in an alleged sexual assault, Kaepernick used social media for his own defense, calling the report, "completely wrong. They made up things about me that never happened."
No charges have been filed, with Miami police labeling it a "suspicious incident."
Coach Jim Harbaugh is critical of how Kaepernick's situation was reported.
"At some point there needs to be a resolution to some of this jump-the-gun witch-hunt scenario we're seeing," Harbaugh said. "Winston Churchill had a great quote. 'A lie will get halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to put on its pants.'
"The only victim in this case is Colin's reputation."
Former Raiders quarterback and CBS analyst Rich Gannon said although players are educated about the pitfalls of social media and their responsibility as professional athletes, mistakes will probably continue to be made.
"Any time something happens, people are taking pictures of it and they're tweeting about it," Gannon said. "You've got young people 21, 22 years old, and you give them a lot of money and then they've got free time on their hands -- particularly in the offseason. That's not a good combination."
Immaturity, Gannon believes, is the root cause of most NFL off-field issues.
"You look at a guy like Aldon Smith, and aside from just doing the right thing and exercising some common sense, there's a real lack of understanding and maturity to understand this business is fleeting. His earning potential is not 20 years.
"It's typically four, five, or six years. ... It's so sad."

Billy Beane diligently picked up his trade-deadline FasTrak three weeks ago, and now he's moving quickly while almost everybody else is stuck in a bit of gridlock.
Though Beane's A's have sputtered a time or two, for the most part they're whizzing through July without any need to stop and reassess themselves.
And, yes, the A's general manager has every right to feel good about that, as the trade lanes clog up before Thursday's deadline.
He made the deal for Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel way back on July 4, the A's still have the best record in baseball, and if Beane wants to try to make another deal by Thursday, he can.
If he doesn't make a deal, that's fine, too.
"One of the reasons we did that deal when we did it -- other than getting a longer period with the players -- is that the last few days before the deadline it can get kind of hectic, almost like a traffic jam to some extent," Beane said in a phone interview Tuesday.
"You try to avoid getting caught up in traffic. It's like at a horse race -- if you get a bad post position and caught up in the pack, it's tough to get caught up."
The point is, Beane sacrificed a lot by giving up top prospect Addison Russell, but Samardzija already made his fifth start for the A's on Tuesday.
That's five more than any pitcher acquired in the next two days will get for their new team.
Plus, the A's still have Tommy Milone in Triple-A as an option if Hammel continues to struggle.
Or, Beane could see what Milone or Drew Pomeranz can fetch in trade -- for a second baseman? An outfielder? -- over the next few feverish days.
"Listen, I think it would be sort of malpractice not to involve yourself in what's going on this week," Beane said. "You don't know where things will go, and you have to check and see.
"But I think you hit the nail on the head, our biggest move was probably done."
Though Milone reportedly has asked for a trade, it doesn't sound like the A's are too interested in cutting into their pitching surplus quite yet.
Milone was pitching terrifically when he was demoted after the A's acquired Samardzija and Hammel; if they need another starter down the stretch, Milone is just a phone call away.
"From a business standpoint, we've got a nice option if we need it," Beane said of Milone.
"Everyone at this point is looking for starting pitching depth, and with Tommy, given the way he pitched, we have that.
"Unless there's something that makes us a better baseball team right now, I think it'd be shortsighted to give up starting pitching now when we might be looking for that exact same thing in a week or two."
These are the luxuries of the A's position right now -- they could add a little salary here or there; or they could sit tight.
They're built to win now, and they have zero outrageous salary commitments to make them panic about the future.
If you want a stark comparison, just look at the Giants' current scramble to find any affordable body that can give them a quality at-bat or six strong innings.
The A's are the opposite of that, deep enough to absorb some recent injuries in the outfield, a few slumps here and there ... and just keep driving toward 100 victories.
Billy, what do you specifically like about this year's team so far?
"If you look at this group of players, it's the consistency," Beane said. "I think they've got the record for most consecutive winning months for the franchise, goes back to ... July of 2012.
"To put up a winning record that many times, that shows the ability to sort of celebrate today -- if you win -- but then leave it behind when you play the next day.
"You focus on the moment ... and this team has been focused on that from day one."
Beane does have some looming contract situations -- Jed Lowrie and Hammel are due to become free agents after this season and then Samardzija, Yoenis Cespedes and Scott Kazmir are due after the 2015 season.
But after losing so many headline players because of salary concerns in the past, Beane is serene about any future headaches.
"When all those issues come to a head at some point, we'll deal with them," Beane said. "But it's too early to start stressing.
"What I say around here is, I'll worry about two years from now in two years."
The A's are loaded, and they've prepared for the trade deadline by jumping ahead of everybody else, basically.
Which is a reminder that the most important thing for the A's and Beane now ... is now.

NBC arrived at the Television Critics Association winter press tour on Sunday, riding the wave of its stunning fall comeback.
Among some of the tidbits from the network's executive session with NBC Chariman Robert Greenblatt, entertainment president Jennifer Salke and alternative/late-night programming chief Paul Telegdy:
-- The previously announced Michael J. Fox sitcom is about to go into production and is on taraget for a fall debut. Salke said the show is inspired by Fox's real life, though his character will be a newscaster, not an actor. He'll play a husband and family man dealing with Parkinson's disease. At one point, he left his job, but thanks to medical advancements, he now feels healthy and ready to return to work.
"At the end of the day, he approaches his work and his life with a lot of irreverence," Salke said of the character. "He laughs at himself."
-- Greenblatt insisted that he is not worried about a ratings dropoff for Jay Leno in late night, now that ABC is shifting Jimmy Kimmel to 11:35 p.m. As for any talk of a succession plan in which Jimmy Fallon would take over "The Tonight Show," Greenblatt said, "Those conversations are premature."
-- Asked if he has ever considered putting a muzzle on the ever-controversial Donald Trump, Greenblatt replied, "We live in a country where you can say pretty much whatever you want. ... If he becomes hurtful or says things that cross the line, then we will talk about it. It comes with the Trump territory"
-- Greenblatt defended NBC's risky decision to pull its biggest scripted hit, "Revolution," off the air until late March. "It's a little more of a cable model," he said. "If you market it properly and have the goods, I actually think that's the better long-term play (than stretching a handful of original episodes over several months)."
-- "The Office" will end its run in May with a one-hour farewell, episode, but Greenblatt said it's "doubtful" that Steve Carell will return for the send-off. No date for the finale has been set yet.
-- NBC has ordered a light-hearted summer dramedy called "Camp." It's a 13-episode series set at a lakeside summer youth camp.
-- "The Voice" will return in March and run into June, after May sweeps.

Man gets 14 years in prison for laundering money earned from sex trafficking
A man who profited from sex trafficking has been sentenced to 14 years in federal prison, authorities said Monday.
Duc Luu, 50, a U.S. citizen from Vietnam, also was ordered to pay $16,766 in restitution to the victim during his sentencing for laundering monetary proceeds from sex trafficking, the U.S. attorney's office in Dallas said.
Chief U.S. District Judge Sidney A. Fitzwater said during Friday's sentencing hearing that he was unable to capture the heinousness of the crime in words, according to the U.S. attorney's office.
Luu was living in Vietnam when he was indicted in 2011 on one count of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and two counts of money laundering. Luu was arrested and brought back to Texas in 2012.
Last year, he pleaded guilty to two counts of money laundering for transferring $12,000 earned from sex trafficking from a Texas bank to a bank in Vietnam in 2008. In 2009, Luu had $26,000 wired from Texas to the same Vietnam bank, authorities said.
The victim testified at the sentencing hearing about the "depraved acts of the defendant in recruiting, grooming, manipulating, exploiting and subjecting her to a fraud of the most serious nature," the U.S. attorney's office said.
David Marwell, Special Agent in Charge of Homeland Security Investigations in Dallas, said his agency will continue using its international partnerships to bring fugitives to justice no matter where they try to hide.
"Even a harsh prison sentence seems inconsequential compared to the horrors visited on the victim in this case," Marwell said.
U.S. Attorney Sarah Saldaña thanked law enforcement agencies, which included IRS Criminal Investigation, for their work in the case.
"This district remains vigilant in our efforts to vigorously and aggressively prosecute human traffickers and hold them accountable for their crimes," she said.

This past weekend, the Texas A&M – Corpus Christi Tennis teams and top local players got together for an exciting tennis event as the Islanders played host to the Mercedes-Benz Dealer Championships at Thomas J. Henry Tennis Center.
Local players competed Saturday for a chance to win a trip to Hawaii and take part in the Western Sectional Championships of the tournament, as Robert Webster and Alexandra Dyckman won their respective groups to earn the trip to Hawaii on behalf of Mercedes-Benz.
The two players will go to Hawaii and compete against other sectional winners for the chance to win a Mercedes-Benz VIP package to the 2013 US Open in Flushing Meadows, N.Y.
Ed Hicks Mercedes-Benz and owner Charlie Hicks chose to host the event at the Thomas J. Henry Tennis Center alongside the Islanders Tennis program and the organizations raised over $6,000 for the tennis squads.
It was a tremendously beneficial fundraiser for the Texas A&M – Corpus Christi Tennis teams, and will be used for the teams' most important necessities such as travel, rackets, string, shoes and other items.
"I would like to once again thank Mr. Charlie Hicks, Mercedes-Benz, Gerry Maingot and our Islanders Athletic Department staff," said Director of Tennis Steve Moore. "I would also like to thank all the participants whose generosity made this such a special event for the Islanders and the Corpus Christi tennis community."

SANTA CLARA — Of the 90 players who reported to 49ers training camp Wednesday, 23 are not under contract for next season, not to mention a handful of young stars who are poised for contract extensions.
Those pending free agents include: cornerbacks Nnamdi Asomugha, Tarell Brown and Perrish Cox; wide receivers Anquan Boldin, Mario Manningham and Kyle Williams; safety Donte Whitner; center Jonathan Goodwin; kicker Phil Dawson; and, backup quarterbacks Colt McCoy and Scott Tolzien.
"Anybody that says it's not a concern, they're probably lying," Whitner said of heading into a contract year. "It's always a concern, especially when you're in a business that's so physical. You never know what's going to happen on a football field.
"But I'm not in a position to make anybody do anything. All I can do is work hard every day, help lead the secondary, help continue to make sure we're one of the top defenses in the NFL, and everything else will fall into place."
Among the promising players who are under contract in 2014 but could warrant an extension before then are quarterback Colin Kaepernick, linebacker Aldon Smith, guard Mike Iupati and wide receiver Michael Crabtree.
Cornerback Carlos Rogers is signed through 2015, but his $5.5 million base salary this season has led to media speculation he could be too expensive to keep among a competitive, crowded unit.
"I've heard that but I can't control it," Rogers said. "They'll make their decision. ... My goal is to play here for this team."

Despite national and even global trends that suggest the availability of middle-class jobs is diminishing, many area officials believe the Mid-Ohio Valley has and will continue to be a viable place for steady, well-paying jobs.
"We're kind of an aberration I'm thinking, Washington County. We have one of the lowest unemployment rates in the state," said Terry Tamburini, executive director of the Southeastern Ohio Port Authority.
In December, Washington County logged an unemployment rate of 7.1 percent, not quite as good as the state average of 6.8 percent; however, Washington County is fairing much better than neighboring Morgan (11.1 percent), Noble (9.7 percent), and Monroe (10.1 percent) counties.

Employers planning to hire students directly out of college is estimated to increase 13 percent this year, said Hilles Hughes, director of the Marietta College Career Center.
"I think the economy has gotten better based on the context I'm working with. Certainly it is better than it was in 2008, 2009," said Hughes, who mainly works on job placement with traditional college students.
A declining unemployment rate falls in line with the national trend. What sets the region apart, said Tamburini, is the quality of the job openings.

Nationally, nearly three quarters of new job growth is in areas considered low-paying, with salaries under $37,000, according to The Associated Press.
Locally, the steady march of Marcellus shale drilling has resulted in desirable positions not only inside the oil and gas industry, but in peripheral industries as well, said Tamburini.
Many of those jobs are middle class positions, or better.
For example, Mike Elliot, secondary director of the Washington County Career Center, said welders that help piece together pipelines for the industry are in high demand.
The school's welding program is placing the most students directly into "first placement" programs, which allow students to get class credit for paid work in their field, he said.
"We're all kind of waiting for this gas boom to take off. And if you can weld, you can certainly be employed, and the wages are there," said Elliot.
Many welders, with overtime, can earn a six-figure salary, placing them beyond middle class, he said.
The loss of many of the middle class jobs has been attributed to technological advances, replacing or at least lessening the need for human work.
And even outside of the oil and gas industry, the career center is preparing students for middle class jobs that show no signs of slowing down, he said.
Another booming program at the school is health information technology, which trains students in billing, medical records, insurance, electronic filing and more.
The Memorial Health System, which encompasses two local hospitals and several other health care facilities, has experienced exponential employment growth over the past five to 10 years, said Jennifer Offenberger, director of marketing and public relations for the system.
About a third of the system's jobs fall into the middle class category, defined as $37,000 to $68,000 in wages.
According to The Associated Press, the loss of many middle class jobs has been directly related to advancements in technology, either lessening or completely doing away with the need for human workers.
But there are certain human actions that technology can never replace, and kneeling by the bed of a sick patient, giving comfort and care is one of them, said Tricia Engfehr, director of human resources for the Memorial Health System.
"We don't believe that technology can deliver the care," said Engfehr.
From the hospital's perspective, the increase in technology has increased the need for people, not decreased it, she added.
"At the end of the day, you still need people to develop the technology and know how to use it on a day to day basis," said Offenberger.
But while jobs, and good paying ones, may still be readily available in this area, people need to be ready to step up to the plate, said Elliot.
The career center's health information system program evolved from what was once the secretarial school, and that evolution has meant a broader scope of learning for the students, he said.
"You're having to do more than just answer the phone or make an appointment. That person is required to do more in different areas," said Elliot.
At Washington-Morgan Community Action, director of employment and training, Kathy Gramkow, has noticed that more skills are now needed to find well-paying jobs.
"The days of just going around and putting in applications, that's not a job search anymore. Now they do personality assessments, team work assessments, skill assessments," noted Gramkow.
While those mid-pay jobs that are disappearing nationally are still available locally, applicants that fail to keep up with the technology now infiltrating so many career fields will be the ones who have a hard time getting into those jobs, she said.

Parsing SoftBank's Statements on a Possible T-Mobile Deal
Will he or won't he? That's the multi-billion-dollar question for Masayoshi Son, chief executive of Japanese telecommunications-and-Internet giant SoftBank, the man who insiders say will ultimately decide whether SoftBank's U.S. Sprint subsidiary defies regulatory skepticismand makes a bid for smaller rival T-Mobile US.
A deal could ultimately be worth as much as $50 billion in "enterprise value" — a number that includes refinancing of T-Mobile's debt — propelling Sprint to a stronger No. 3 position, behind leaders AT&T and Verizon Wireless. But U.S. antitrust officials have been negative on the possibility publicly, since it would shrink to three the number of wireless competitors in a field that already has only four players.
Though Son on Wednesday declined to comment directly on the prospects of a bid, he did everything in his power to suggest that's what he's planning.
The Wall Street Journal assembles the evidence, from the lips of Son, at a press conference to announce earnings for the October-December quarter.
Point 1: There's not enough competition in the U.S. market.
"The U.S. has one of the world's highest mobile fees" and the principles of competition aren't working.
Point 2: SoftBank/Sprint want to shake things up, but can't do it alone.
"By ourselves, all we can do is make Sprint's status as No.3 as healthy as possible."
Point 3: However, if Sprint gets bigger (i.e., buys another company), it has a chance of sparking competition and getting to No. 1.
"With scale merit, we don't have to settle with No. 3. We can try to be No.2 or No.1…we can compete fiercely," and bring about faster and cheaper mobile networks.
Point 4: Masayoshi Son wants to be No. 1.
"I can't settle for No.3 or No.2. It's my personality."

I was sitting at home the other day, looking at my old TViX HD that does not support the modern codecs (but is a great PVR for TV at least). It got me thinking, why don't I add the functionality to PS3 media server.
It (TViX) supports network connection, both SMB and NFS ( talks to TViX netshare), where it gets info about the media.
I was thinking that all I would need to do is create a java NFS server, that takes the library of the ps3 media server, and anything it can natively play, it just plays, the rest could be transcoded to a supported format, as is done with the PS3.
I am not sure if I will actually get around to it, but if I put the idea up there, someone might be thinking of the same idea.

Bitcoin's Crisis Is Turning Point for Currency
Many bitcoin users are probably too young to remember the Notorious B.I.G.'s 1997 rap hit "Mo Money Mo Problems." A YouTube trip down memory lane won't be a waste of time: Mo virtual money, mo problems.
After weeks marked by technological breakdowns, regulatory issues and general questions over its viability, bitcoin is in the midst of the worst crisis since it was proposed in a white paper in 2008.
The turmoil is a watershed. The way bitcoin and its ecosystem react to the problems could determine whether the whole experiment goes the way of Dutch tulips in the 1600s or becomes a historic technological breakthrough like email.
To recap: Bitcoin is a virtual or "crypto" currency. It isn't backed by governments or central banks and it exists only online. In fact, it is so "crypto" that nobody knows who developed it.
There is no mint either. Users "mine" bitcoins by using computer algorithms to solve complex mathematical problems. They trade the coins among themselves or spend them on things like tickets to Sacramento Kings basketball games, or at online retailer Overstock.com.
Over the past three years, bitcoin has emerged from geekland into the mainstream. Its price skyrocketed from a few cents in 2011 to a high of more than $1,100 in December 2013. More and more merchants started accepting it. And its most ardent friends and foes even predicted that it might one day replace the dollar and other traditional currencies.
Bitcoin's strength is predicated on three supposed qualities: It is anonymous, or at least pseudonymous (transactions are recorded but the identity of the parties is encrypted); it is difficult to hack; and it cuts out financial middlemen like banks.
Meyer Malka, whose venture-capital fund Ribbit Capital invests in bitcoin-related firms, calls virtual currencies "the most disruptive thing I have seen in financial services in my lifetime."
Of late, though, bitcoin's three bulwarks have come under fire. Its anonymity has caught the attention of regulators and law-enforcement agencies because of alleged money laundering. Its immunity to cyberattacks was called into question last week when the three main bitcoin exchanges had severe problems. And the currency's place on the fringes of the financial system has proved a limitation because most banks refuse to facilitate bitcoin transactions. To make matter worse, bitcoin's price now is almost half of what it was at its peak.
Ajay Banga, chief executive of Mastercard, spoke for many skeptics last week when he said in an interview: "The world is not short of currencies, so what is this currency solving for?"
That is the crucial question. In order to thrive, bitcoin has to be more useful than current payment systems.
Two possible applications could embed virtual currencies into the financial infrastructure in a way that is complementary to existing forms of payments.
The first is as conduits for small international transactions like remittances from foreign workers. Bitcoin could reduce both the cost and the time required for such payments.
For Antonis Polemitis, this means that consumers should rejoice, and money transmission firms like Western Union and MoneyGram International should worry. "Bitcoin is like email and the other stuff is like the post office," says Mr. Polemitis, who heads Ledra Capital LLC, a family office looking to invest in the bitcoin arena.
Tellingly, Benjamin Lawsky, New York's top financial watchdog, is considering regulating bitcoin firms similarly to money transmitters.
The second potential use is further into the future.
Supporters like Mr. Malka view bitcoin as more than just a currency used to store value. For them, bitcoin is an open financial platform that could house scores of types of data in a secure and universal ledger. From payments for road tolls to proof of ownership for cars and houses, bitcoin could be an independent, secure and reliable host of financial and personal information.
"It's not a technology experiment, it is an experimental society," Mr. Malka says.
It sounds far-fetched. Even bitcoin evangelists concede that this could only happen if three conditions materialize.
First, the current infrastructure—largely anonymous, anchored by unregulated overseas exchanges and vulnerable to manipulation by criminals—must be overhauled through the creation of U.S. exchanges overseen by financial watchdogs. Second, institutional money like pension funds will have to invest in bitcoin to curb its wild price volatility. And, third, banks will have to view bitcoin as legitimate and enable customers to exchange it for dollars and cents.
None of those is a given, and none of those would make bitcoin a replacement for the dollar. But behind all the hype and fear, there is a real possibility that bitcoin will play more than a bit part in the financial industry of the future.

Thankful for that!!! 2-1 great result, 3 more points, although others will point out how badly we played.
- 2 Replies to A Yahoo! User
You're right - at least with me.
I wouldn't say 'badly', but I wouldn't say 'well' either. Personally, I thought the Woolwich bunch deserved something from the game, although overall both sides were pretty poor at creating chances. Did I see Daffy set up one though (again)?
BUT the result was great, and the position that we're in looks really positive. Another win (mid-week as well followed by) - 3 points against Pool - and that would leave the Woolwich bunch looking to catch up a point a game until the end of the season.
A great result which puts you guys in a strong slot for Europe---keep the good work up.

This fee is separate from the one that you will be charged by Higher One, and will be displayed on the ATM screen. You can avoid ATM fees by using a Higher One ATM or swipe your card as "credit" for purchases.
What are ATM Fees?
Simply put, ATM fees reimburse the bank that owns the ATM. ATM fees are charged by banks when non-accountholders use their ATMs, or when bank accountholders use another bank's ATM.
Don't want to pay extra fees? There are plenty of Higher One ATMs that you can use for free along with ways to Use Your Account for Free.
What is the PIN Based Transaction Fee?
The PIN Based Transaction fee is assessed whenever a point-of-sale transaction requires the entry of your Personal Identification Number (PIN). Therefore, we strongly recommend the use of your card in 'credit' mode. 'Credit' mode requires you to swipe the card and sign your receipt. It is a clever way to avoid paying PIN Based Transaction fees!

Yes, there is a fee for official checks. For more information on this and other fees, please visit the Fee Schedule located at the top of your online statement.
What is the Uncollected Funds Fee?
It is a fee assessed when an account holder has spent more money than is available in your Higher One Account by making recurring debit card payments; a purchase made with an e-check or paper check; or via ACH.
Is there a Fee for Using the Higher One Mobile App?
There is no fee for using the Higher One Mobile App. However, please contact your mobile services provider for any charges that may apply for data usage on your phone.
What is the Research Fee?
On rare occasions, customers request documents that require substantial effort on the part of Higher One staff to retrieve/compile. For example, a customer may be required to produce a large volume of banking documents to rectify a case of fraud; to address questions of taxation; or to simply unscramble some confused financial circumstances. Research is not a part of everyday banking and is a very rarely used additional service. The fee if applicable would be disclosed prior to beginning research.
What is the Return Deposit Item Fee?
The Return Deposit Item fee may be charged when a deposit was made in to your Higher One Account that does not clear the other bank. For example, someone writes you a check that bounces because they do not have sufficient funds in their account.
