Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Even though almost every state requires its motorists to have auto insurance, many people drive without it. So if you're a car owner, you should be concerned about having an accident with an uninsured motorist. Fortunately, your own personal auto policy already has you covered. The uninsured motorist (UM) coverage section is designed to cover you for injuries sustained in an auto accident that's caused by another driver who is either completely uninsured or has less than the minimum insurance required by state law. UM coverage also protects you when you're the victim of a hit-and-run accident where the owner or driver of the other vehicle can't be identified.
What's covered
If you're in an accident with an uninsured motorist, your policy's collision coverage will pay for the repair bills to your own car. However, you'll have to pay your deductible. In some states, you can purchase uninsured motorist property damage coverage, which usually carries a lower deductible than collision coverage and thus can minimize your out-of-pocket expenses if you're involved in an accident with an at-fault uninsured motorist.
Generally, your insurance company will pay bodily injury claims associated with a UM accident if:
- The injured individuals making the claims are considered insured parties under your policy; such insured parties include you, your spouse, family members who live with you, and any guests who were in the car at the time of the accident
- The insured parties are seeking compensatory damages for bodily injury (reimbursement for medical expenses and lost wages)
- The owner or operator of the uninsured vehicle caused the accident through negligence
- The injured parties are, in the opinion of the insurer, legally entitled to recover compensatory damages from the negligent uninsured party
An "uninsured motor vehicle" is a land motor vehicle or trailer of any type for which:
- No bodily injury liability bond or policy applies at the time of the accident
- There is bodily injury coverage, but in an amount less than that required by state law
- There is bodily injury coverage at the time of the accident, but the insurance company either denies coverage or becomes insolvent
- No operator or owner can be identified after a hit-and-run accident
To ensure that there's no confusion (and perhaps to limit fraudulent claims), some vehicles are specifically excluded from classification as uninsured motor vehicles. They are vehicles:
- Owned by you or a family member and uninsured
- Owned or operated by a self-insurer, except one who is or becomes insolvent
- Owned by the government
- Operated on rails or crawler treads, like railroad cars or bulldozers
- Designed for off-road use and being used off-road at the time of the accident
- Being used as a residence or premises, such as a trailer parked at a campsite
What's excluded from coverage
Your insurer may exclude certain losses from your UM coverage. Most significantly, the agreement covers only compensatory damages (reimbursement for medical bills and lost wages); it doesn't cover damages for pain and suffering or punitive damages. If you have an accident involving an uninsured driver while you're in your own uninsured vehicle (one that's not listed on your insurance policy), your policy won't give you any UM protection. If you're using your car as a taxi or as a delivery van, transporting people or goods for a fee, you (and your passengers) aren't covered in the event of an accident with an uninsured motorist. This exclusion does not apply to car pool arrangements in which expenses are shared. If you sustain injuries that would be covered under a workers' compensation claim, a disability insurance claim, or any other policy claim, you'll get no UM coverage, as it would be duplicative. Finally, you'll get no UM compensation if you or your lawyer settles the bodily injury claim without the consent of your insurance company.
The Declarations Page of your policy will spell out the limits of your UM coverage. The limit is usually the maximum that the insurance company will pay for any one accident, regardless of how many insureds are involved, how many claims are made, or how many vehicles were involved in the accident.
When there's disagreement over coverage
If you and your insurer can't agree on if or how much you're entitled to recover under the UM section of your policy, the policy's arbitration clause allows you to use outside arbitrators to settle your dispute. Under a typical arbitration clause, each party (you and the insurer) selects an arbitrator; the two arbitrators then select a third. Each party pays the expenses of the arbitrator he or she has chosen, and the expenses of the third arbitrator are shared equally.
Arbitration is limited to deciding whether the insured is legally entitled to recover damages, and the amount of those damages. Under many clauses, the decision is binding only if the arbitrators decide that you're entitled to an amount equal to or less than the minimum amount of insurance you're required to have by your state. If the arbitrators decide that you're entitled to damages that exceed your state's minimum insurance requirement, the decision isn't binding, and either party may demand a trial within 60 days of the arbitrators' decision.
What about underinsured motorist coverage?
If vehicles insured under policies with less than the state's minimum liability limits are considered uninsured, then what are underinsured vehicles? Whether a vehicle is considered underinsured depends on what you decided to buy for this part of your own policy. An underinsured motor vehicle is defined as one covered by bodily injury liability insurance limits that are:
- Equal to or higher than the state minimums
- Less than the limit of another person's underinsured motorist coverage
The way this coverage works depends on state law. In some states, for example, if you carry underinsured motorist coverage with a limit of $100,000 and are not at fault in an accident with a person who has a bodily injury limit of $50,000, your own policy may cover you for any damages you suffer over $50,000 up to $100,000. (In this case, if your underinsured motorist limit were $25,000, you wouldn't be able to collect under it, because your coverage would be less than that of the other person.) In other states, it doesn't matter what your limits are for underinsured motorist coverage relative to the coverage of the other party. As long as you have any coverage, it will be available to you if your damages exceed the other party's liability limits.

The Wanted's Nathan Sykes Spotted With With Timberlake Producer
Listen to The Wanted Radio on iHeartRadio
A member of the The Wanted may be looking to go solo. The British boy band parted ways earlier this summer after finishing off a U.S. tour, and member Nathan Sykes is now rumored to be recording on his own.
The producer, who has worked with artists like Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears and Chris Brown, posted a picture with the singer on his Instagram account.
U.K. tabloid The Mirror says Nathan has been spending more time in Los Angeles since The Wanted broke up, and sources say he's heading into the studio.
Nathan has been hinting at a solo career for some time. Last month, he performed with Jessie J during her set at the Summertime Ball festival in London. Last year, while still singing with The Wanted, he recorded a duet with his then-girlfriend Ariana Grande.

Juicy J plans to launch scholarship foundation
Listen to Juicy J on iHeartRadio
The success of Juicy J's so-called "Twerking Scholarship" is inspiring the rapper to continue providing opportunities for college hopefuls.
In an interview with HipHopSince1987.com, the Three Six Mafia emcee says he plans to start a Juicy J Scholarship Foundation. Apart from helping people with their school costs, Juicy J also hopes the fund can be used to help out homeless people.
Juicy J also took the opportunity to point out that while the previous scholarship was advertised as a "Twerking Scholarship," it "wasn't really about twerking." Instead, the fine print only required contestants to submit a video explaining why they deserved the scholarship. It eventually went to a 19-year-old, non-twerking mother who is a student at State College of Florida.
Sticking to the topic of twerking, Juicy J says if he had a choice to twerk with any celebrity, he would choose singer Adele. Apparently, he made the choice because he enjoys her music. As for who is the best celebrity twerker, Juicy J gave that honor to Miley Cyrus.

My best guess is that those maps were done around 1983/4 when I was in 8th or 9th grade. I had gotten my hands on a manual for the Traveller roleplaying game and was pretty taken with the idea. At that time, though, the few kids I knew who were into roleplaying games pretty much played D&D exclusively. So these starship maps were pretty much for my own entertainment and were probably part of plans for a roleplaying campaign that never happened.

President Obama last week sent to Congressional Republicans a "fiscal cliff" proposal that included $1.6 trillion in new taxes. In addition to the increase in the top marginal income tax rates on which the President is most insistent, his offer also calls for repeal of LIFO (last-in, first-out). This is not a surprise since repeal has been in each of his budget proposals and his proposal to the Speaker is very close to his budget proposal.
NAEDA would like to compile more specific information related to a repeal of LIFO and its impact on equipment dealers. Your responses will provide useful data on the types of business decisions that may result from Federal tax policy. As always your responses are totally confidential.

Changing teams
Growing up in the Maspeth section of Queens, my father grew up a New York Giants fan — the baseball Giants that played at the Polo Grounds, not so much the football Giants (although I believe he never forgave Frank Gifford for fumbling away the championship 50 years ago). If you fast forward to 1987, I moved to San Francisco from Miami (long story) and picked up where my father left off, being the second generation of Cafiero to live and die with the orange and black.
My father's favorite Giant was Mel Ott, but then there were also Johnny Mize, Carl Hubbell, Eddie Stanky. And there was Bobby Thomson, who hit the legendary home run the year my parents were married. I got to San Francisco in '87, the year Candy Maldonado lost a ball in the lights against the Cardinals in the playoffs which brought me, and the Giants, back to earth. Two years later, it was Will Clark acing the Cubs' Mitch "Wild Thing" Williams in the league championship, sending the Giants to "Bay's-ball" against Oakland and to the first World Series interrupted by a natural disaster.
In addition, I have five Croixs de Candlesticks — awarded to Giants fans who braved the elements at Candlestick Park during extra-inning games — on a cap which also bears the '89 National League Championship pin.
What does this have to do with FOSS? The reason I'm waxing nostalgic about the Giants is because it looks like I'm going to have to leave them on Oct. 1: Microsoft attorney Bill Neukom takes control of the ballclub in October as president.
It's impossible for me to support a team that is run by a shill who has made his fortune representing a company that has made its sole raison d'etre squelching any semblance of digital choice; all that while forcing on the public some of the worst software in the short history of personal computing.
This may not make a lot of sense to the Europeans reading this. But imagine a Manchester United fan having to switch his or her support to Manchester City; Real Madrid to Barcelona; Juventus to AC Milano; All Blacks to Australia. Change can be necessary because team allegiances should include principles and mean more than just root, root, root for the home team.
So once this season ends, I'm going to hang up my hat, hang up the jacket and shop around for another team to support. The Oakland Athletics, more than likely, will keep my heart in the San Francisco Bay Area. But perhaps I'll take the winter off while hoping the San Francisco 49ers do something resembling anything (thanks, Pam) and also root for the Canadian Football League's Hamilton Tiger-Cats, since co-owner Bob Young is one of the founders of Red Hat.
Go Cats.

"a shill who has made his fortune representing "
I think Microsoft's attorney is more likely to have been an active participant in planning/strategy and not just a shill. So if you're going to boycott him, do it because he was actively involved in the "squelching any semblance of digital choice" not because Uncle Billy deceived and took advantage of him.
As usual, just my opinion.
August 18, 2008 at 6:09 pm
You're welcome, and I'm quite sure I have either given you the opportunity to return the favor or I will. 😉

WATCH: President Obama takes 22 shots on basketball court, hits 2
(Billy Hallowell) Reporters, children and other onlookers who observed President Barack Obama's Easter Egg Roll celebrations today saw first-hand what many critics will likely dub a plethora of embarrassing moments — twenty of them, to be exact.
Here's what happened: While playing basketball with the kids in attendance, the commander-in-chief attempted to make numerous shots. But out of a total of 22 shots, he only sank two.
In case you're wondering, that means Obama only made about 9 percent of the overall dunks he attempted.
The attempts, which all took place on the White House basketball court, occurred in front of a number of children and Washington Wizards players, The Washington Post reports.
The official pool report described the shots as follows: "Miss. Miss. Off the rim. Miss. Miss. Off the rim. Airball. He moved closer to the net. But time and again, he missed."
But if you're looking for a more drawn-out description of what unfolded, consider the detailspresent in the ABC news recap:
…At O for 4 the president, an avid basketball player, declared "I have to hit one shot before I go."
And then it began. A series of painful misses and air balls.
After six more failed free throws, Obama traded balls. After 10 misses, he moved in closer. After 11, he tried a few layups.
After the president missed 13 shots in a row from various distances, 10-year old Kahron Campbell stepped in to help.
Campbell made the layup on his first try.
Now, it's true that Obama missed quite a number of shots, but he's the leader of the free world. Perhaps he was exhausted and sleep-deprived. Or, maybe it was the vibe given off from professional players watching that tinkered a bit with his concentration.
Oh, and there's video:

Brad Paisley Welcomes Ousted 'Rising Star' Singer To Opry

He also extended his invitation to her via Twitter, adding that he "meant it." In his tweet Brad encouraged Sarah to appear with him and let the Opry audience "welcome you home to Nashville."

ASTORIA, NY -- Champion Vending USA Corp. said it has won a 10-year contract for its vending services at Fordham University. The company is expected to install high-tech Merchant Media machines on Oct 1.
"Champion was chosen after a long evaluation of a few top companies in the area based on our track record and expertise in college vending," said Champion president William Mandile. "Champion will exclusively operate Merchant Media machines that will run seamlessly in our Streamware platform to ensure Fordham the best vending solution for their students and faculty."
Champion replaces Canteen Vending, which provided the university's vending service for the past 14 years.
Mandile said Champion will deploy 58 machines, all of which are customized with Fordham graphics. Manufactured by Crane Merchandising Systems, the high-tech Media line is equipped with 7" touchscreen user interface and wireless connectivity through the built-in Navigator cashless-ready telemetry device, along with many other state-of-the-art features. | READ MORE

Food venders will offer healthy selections like yogurt, hummus and fresh-cut fruit.

Because of the cross and resurrection, we are able to experience His grace and know true forgiveness. What freedom! What joy! "We love Him because He first loved us." It is His love that enables us to reach out to others. Read the rest of this entry »

The Opportunities and Perils of Being A North Korean Woman
While in the car I recently listened to an NPR story by Louisa Lim called Out of Desperation, North Korean Women become Breadwinners. Although considering North Korea's traditionally patriarchal society this rise in female power and responsibility may seem like a positive step, a disturbing rise in domestic abuse has occurred alongside it.
As the lives of all North Koreans have become more difficult, it has been up to women to keep their families alive. Men in North Korea are trapped in state-mandated jobs that often pay nothing or, incredibly, force them to pay the government. As one North Korean woman told NPR, her husband "had to pay not to work for about six months of last year. You have to pay, even if you can't afford to eat. …

Will $1.2 Million a Day Convince Congress to Buy Big Pharma's Rx for Change?
June 25, 2009 | In the first three months of 2009, the pharmaceutical and health products industry has spent more than $66.5 million on lobbying–an amount that translates into $1.2 million every day Congress has been in session. Just how much influence will that amount buy?

First of all, I'm not musical. At all. I think there is an old axiom–that which we cannot have is what we want most. So even though I don't possess any musical talent, I tortured my parents with the clarinet and piano in hopes of overcoming my lack of talent. No such luck. However, I love music and appreciate the incredibly rich heritage of American music.
From earliest childhood I remember my grandfather singing songs from the Chippewa Indians of northern Minnesota and a funny song brought over by Swedish immigrants about porcupines up in trees. Evenings, at our lake cabin, we listened to songs of the Voyageurs, the early French fur traders who canoed hundreds of miles across Lake Superior and sang to the beat of their canoe paddles.
In sixth grade chorus we sang the sad and mournful "Streets of Laredo":
As I walked out on the streets of Laredo,
As I walked out in Laredo one day,
I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen,
Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay.
And who among us has not sung "Home on the Range" or "Darlin' Clementine"? They are classic cowboy tunes and part of America's musical journey westward. Like the sea chanteys of sailors and the field songs of slaves, the songs of my childhood tell the story of American journeys.
College introduced me to folk music. Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger and many more sang about the hardships of the depression, the Civil Rights movement and the Vietnam War, including Bob Dylan's poignant "Blowin' in the Wind,"
Yes, how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
It was not until my move to Cecil County many years later that I was introduced to the incredible Ola Belle Reed, her roots in the music of Appalachia and the great migration from the south to the north that occurred in the 20th century. My musical journey is not complete. I will never be a musician but I will always be a lover of great music!
There are many musical journeys that trace the history of our country. I have only mentioned a few. Join us for The Musical Stories of Journeys Wednesday, August 22, 7 pm at the Elkton Central Library as musician and music historian Dr. David Hildebrand introduces us to the ballads and songs that Americans have been singing for 200 years. From sailors to soldiers, cowboys to Indians, slaves to migrant workers, David will offer a mixture of live and recorded musical selections that tell the musical stories of American journeys.
What is your favorite "journey" song? Does your family have any songs of heritage?

Reese Witherspoon cancels appearances as arrest video hits the web
(Yahoo!) - It's not all business as usual for Reese Witherspoon following her arrest.
While the 37-year-old actress put on her game face to attend Sunday's premiere of "Mud" and issued a candid apology for her "embarrassing" behavior during her disorderly conduct bust, she's not ready to be in the hot seat just yet. She has canceled appearances on "Good Morning America" and "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon," as well as at the TV junket for "Mud."
In addition to skipping a press event on Monday for her latest film, Witherspoon pulled out of a "GMA" interview, which was to air on Wednesday. She also scrapped a sit-down with Fallon on Tuesday. No word on whether the appearances will be rescheduled.
This decision comes as new arrest footage of Witherspoon hits the Internet. The local Fox affiliate in Atlanta -- where the Oscar winner was taken into custody for allegedly becoming belligerent while her husband, CAA talent agent Jim Toth, was being arrested for a DUI on Friday morning -- has footage of the mom of three in handcuffs.
But Witherspoon certainly has her supporters, one of whom is her "Mud" co-star and friend Matthew McConaughey. No stranger to a very public arrest -- bongos anyone? -- he thinks she's handling it well.
"I'm happy to see that she seems the kind of woman who did what she did: Come out and be forthright about it. Look it in the eye and be forthright," McConaughey told "Access Hollywood" on Monday.

Jay Z faces lawsuit over 'Run This Town'
Listen to Jay Z on iHeartRadio
Jay Z is facing a lawsuit over his 2009 hit "Run This Town."
According to the "New York Daily News," the record label Tuf America is suing Jay and his Roc-A-Fella Records for copyright infringement. Tuf America says the rapper illegally sampled the 1969 Eddie Bo song "Hook and Sling."
The lawsuit - which was filed in Manhattan federal court this week - claims Jay's song (Which features Kanye West and Rihanna) samples Bo's track numerous times.
This isn't the first time Tuf America has gone after Roc-A-Fella Records for allegedly using "Hook and Sling" without permission. Allhiphop.com reports that Tuf America previously went after Jay's label for sampling the song on Kanye West's tracks "Who Will Survive in America?" and "Lost in the World" from his 2010 album "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy."

Ok, this is my first tutorial, so I'll try to be as clear as possible.
Last week was like a struggle to make vmware tools work with the new kernel (18.104.22.168). I finally managed to get it working, so i decided to share my experience and the solutions i found to my situation.
I started trying to update kernel because I never managed to get the auto-fit guest feature to work with the new kernel (now i know that the problem was from the graphics drivers, but i'll get to that later)
So, for start, use muts tutorial to update the kernel:
Next, you will need to install linux-sourcesCode:apt-get update apt-get install -d linux-image cd /var/cache/apt/archives/ dpkg -i --force-all linux-image-126.96.36.199_220.127.116.11-10.00.Custom_i386.deb apt-get dist-upgrade apt-get install madwifi-drivers apt-get install r8187-drivers (reboot) fix-splash uname -a (and check if 22.214.171.124 appears)
After this, i tried installing vmware tools but it complained about not having linux headers.Code:apt-get install linux-source-220.127.116.11 cd /usr/src/ tar jxvf /usr/src/linux-source-18.104.22.168.tar.bz2 rm -f /usr/src/linux ln -s /usr/src/linux-source-22.214.171.124 /usr/src/linux
The next part, I'll give full credits to muts, because he was the one who told me how to get around the "linux headers needed" problem (thanks again, muts!):
After this steps, your kernel should be ready for vmware tools installation.Code:cd /usr/src/linux zcat /proc/config.gz > .config make scripts make bzImage (let it run for like 20 secs and then CTRL+C it) ln -s /usr/src/linux /lib/modules/220.127.116.11/build
After this, auto-fit guest feature wouldn't work for me, so i reverted to the old kernel, and later I discovered how to get it working. Haven't tested it yet with the new kernel... But it should work! For those who auto-fit guest won't work, just do the following:
Look for this line:Code:kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf
And replace the following lines (until endsection) by this:Code:# ********************************************************************** # Graphics device section # **********************************************************************
That should be it, logout, startx, wait a while, got to view > fit guest now (or resize your vmware window)Code:Section "Device" Identifier "VESA Framebuffer" Boardname "vmware" Busid "PCI:0:15:0" Driver "vmware" Screen 0 EndSection
There is still a problem with the background wallpaper (it gets tiled when the guest autofits the vmware window). I'm still working on that, seems that it is a KDE problem. If somebody knows the answer, please post. I would appreciate it very much.
Thanks for reading, and sorry for my english. Feel free to correct/criticize my tutorial!

Top Ten Bad Date Behaviors
We've talked a lot on The Frisky about first dates and what not to do on them, but apparently not everyone is taking our advice. A recent article in the Daily Mail claims that first date behavior has gotten so bad that at least a third of all 18 million first dates in the U.K. end in "disaster." The writer never explains what qualifies a date as a disaster, but in my experience, hoping for a sudden natural disaster to relieve you of his company is a pretty good indicator it sucks. To find out what's going on to make all these first dates so terrible, an online dating firm called parship.co.uk polled 1,300 singles about their behavior. After the jump, the top ten bad dating behaviors they discovered. 1. Entrances & Exits
"On average, 30 per cent of men and 48 per cent of women admitted to turning up late for a first date, with one in ten women keeping the man waiting for 30 minutes or more. However, 12 per cent of women and 6 per cent of men admitted to taking advantage of their date's absence at the bar or in the loo, and leaving without saying goodbye. Some dates never even got that far – a total of 5 per cent of those polled said they had turned up to a date, not liked what they saw and then made a speedy exit."
2. The Ex
"Most people know they shouldn't talk about their ex on a first date, but for one in five men and women the urge has proved too great. In a similar vein, 12 per cent of men and 6 per cent of women admitted to talking about previous sexual experiences."
3. Drinking
"Eleven per cent of men and 14 per cent of women say they've drunk so much alcohol on a first date that they've felt they weren't fully in control of themselves."
4. Yours or mine?
"30 per cent of men and 20 per cent of women admitted to going home with their date, with one in four men and one in five women claiming it led to sex."
5. The Bill
"Credit-crunched Brits are now more likely to keep their hands firmly in their pockets, particularly if the date isn't going well. One in four women say they've purposely not offered to contribute financially towards the evening, leaving it to their date to pick up the bill."
6. Lies and more lies
"Eight per cent of singletons say they've lied about their age on a first date; six per cent pretend that they're not dating other people, four per cent lie about their job and salary, three per cent that they still live with their parents – and 2 per cent have conveniently forgotten that they're not in fact single."
7. What's in a name?
"Ten per cent of men and three per cent of women say they've even forgotten their date's name."
8. Three's company
"Five per cent of women and three per cent of men say they've been chaperoned by a friend or even their mother – on a first date."
9. Arguments
"With all these bad manners going on, maybe it's surprising that just 3 per cent of singles say they've spoiled the evening by arguing."
10. Text, please!
"Four per cent of women and two per cent of men say they've called or texted another potential date in the course of a first date."
Personally, I'm not convinced these are all indicators of "bad behavior." Take number four, for example. If you've really hit it off with your date, what's so bad about inviting him back to your place for a nightcap? Even if you do do the nasty, it doesn't necessarily spell disaster. In fact, it could be the beginning of something beautiful. And frankly, I'm surprised it's only a quarter of the women who aren't offering to contribute financially to the date. As we've discussed ad nauseum here, there's a general understanding that the first date is on the guy. And the lying? Well, if anyone's asking about someone's salary on a first date (or even a tenth date!), he or she deserves to be lied to. Inviting your mom to chaperone a date is pretty inexcusable, though.

Hunter mistakes man for deer, shoots him - twice
(NEWSER) – A hunter in Tampa, Fla., mistook a man practicing turkey calls for a deer Sunday night and shot him—twice—with a high-powered rifle. Amazingly, he survived,Opposing Views and the New York Times report. Clint Galentine, 37, was walking with a friend in a wildlife management area when the bullets hit him in the left side; one shot passed through his arm and broke a bone. The hunter, 43-year-old Michael Trott, rushed over and apologized as Galentine and his buddy wrapped up his arm. "I don't know how he mistakenly thought we were animal[s]," Galentine said.

Math Facts Game
Practice makes perfect – especially when it comes to memorizing math facts. But does your child balk at flashcards, making multiplication practice a struggle? If so, consider playing this fun math facts game to help your child review the math problems that tend to trip him up. Especially enjoyable for kinesthetic learners or musically inclined children, the game combines music with movement and allows children to move around as they practice. Although the game is perfect for practicing the multiplication tables, it can be used for any math concept that children should be able to do in their heads rather than through writing.
What You Need:
- Paper
- Markers
- Tape
- CD or MP3 player
What You Do:
- Make a list of math problems that your child is having difficulty with.
- Write the answer to each of the math problems on its own piece of paper with a thick marker. Each number should fill up the paper and be dark enough for your child to see easily from several feet away.
- Tape the numbers at random on a driveway, bare floor, or patio.
- Turn on the music and let your child dance around on top of the numbers. After a few seconds, pause the music and call out a math problem, such as "Three times eight!"
- Your child should then jump as quickly as possible onto the number that is the correct answer to the problem you called out.
- You can keep on calling out math problems while repeating the previous steps. If your child has a friend over you can change the game into more of a competition, in which children race to see which one can jump on the correct number first.

RUGBY: Trinder and Seville call-ups a great boost for Cirencester RFC youth set-up
5:00pm Wednesday 28th May 2014
By Danny Hall
5:00pm Wednesday 28th May 2014
By Danny Hall
HENRY TRINDER'S selection for the England summer tour of New Zealand – the team flew out this week – was another major boost for the junior coaching system at Cirencester RFC.
Trinder, who was joined on the plane to the Southern Hemisphere by four other Gloucester Rugby team-mates – Billy Twelvetrees, Ben Morgan (ex-Dursley RFC), Matt Kvesic and Jonny May (ex-Wootton Bassett RFC) – is from Bagendon on the outskirts of Cirencester and played for his town club from the age of six to 14.
Only last weekend another Ciren old boy Will Seville represented the England Counties U20s side in the international victory over Georgia U20s.
And waiting in the wings is perhaps the best prospect of them all, Harry Wilson, who has already broken into the England U18 set-up, along with some younger players who are part of the Gloucester Academy.
Simon Collyer-Bristow coached Swindon-born Trinder and Seville throughout their junior rugby careers and says the club is justifiably proud of their achievements.
"Right from the very beginning Henry always had exceptional speed allied to good ball skills and great awareness of the game," said Collyer-Bristow. "He's a natural sportsman and, like his dad, was a very good footballer, too.
"I hope Henry has a great tour as his career keeps stalling due to having more than his fair share of injuries.
"At 25 he still has time to make a big impact.
"I get the impression that Stuart Lancaster (England coach) thinks Henry and Billy Twelvetrees are his first choice combination at centre."
Collyer-Bristow travelled to see Seville, who was with Cirencester from U9s to Colts, play for the England Counties U20s XV in two international matches hosted by Cambridge RFC.
Will started at No.8 in the first game which England won 36-10 and made some notable contributions in both attack and defence.
He was awarded his England cap at the post-match reception. "England Counties XV is a big step away from the elite England squad but it is a good standard of rugby nevertheless," said Collyer-Bristow. "Will went to Rose Hill School in Wotton-under-Edge and then Cheltenham College.
"He was always a gentle giant, starting on the wing where his stand-out skill was his tackling. No one would get round him.
"He went on to captain the county U18s and he was only released by Gloucester Academy when he went to study at Loughborough University.
"Will is a very bright lad and knows there is more to life to rugby "Along with Harry (Wilson), who may prove the pick of the lot, all three are very nice, unassuming lads and good role models.
"Ciren have an excellent record of developing young players until they are swept up by the academies at about U15 level.
"That has been the case with Trinder, Seville and Wilson at Ciren along with Ben Morgan at Dursley as well as Elliott Stooke and Oli Thorley at Stow, too."

Tuesday August 6th, 2013 12:47am
As everyone is putting on their spikes and grabbing their sticks from car trunks, the pick-up invariably pulls up each evening, tires speckled with mud, and all types of lawn gear stowed away in the back. The driver climbs out and clumps down on the asphalt in his dirt-caked Timberlands, white socks pulled up almost to his knees.
He wasn't there to fix the field. Brian Karalunas was there to play.
He never missed a game. Four or five nights a week, he never missed a game. Yes, Karalunas is literally a dirt-under-the-fingernails type of player.
To improve last summer, the Villanova all-American senior long-stick middie played in three summer leagues. That's not surprising. That it came after toiling under a grueling sun doing landscaping daily for eight hours is.
Can anyone name another elite Division I All-American lacrosse player in the country that went from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the off-season moving tree stumps, pushing lawn mowers, and toting wheelbarrows full of dirt for flower beds?
The aim this year was to be better than last year, and by all accounts, Karalunas is. He's easily the nation's breakout player. He's arguably the country's best defender, and he's been such a game-changer that he has to be in the mix as national Player of the Year, voted on by the coaches. Karalunas is not a finalist for this year's Tewaaraton Award, which will be awarded June 2.
Villanova has made the NCAA Tournament in two of the last three years, achieving heights no other Wildcat team ever accomplished. At its core is Karalunas, who is unquestionably the program's greatest player, and who last week was awarded Villanova's Male Scholar Athlete of the Year, selected over a number of scholarship athletes in higher-profile sports.
Has Karalunas forged the kind of national statement that can earn him Player of the Year?
"I think he could," Syracuse coach John Desko said. "It's probably harder than if he was on a team like Syracuse that's been on national television. Being at Villanova, they've had a great year — the team's done extremely well, but probably isn't as visible as some other teams are. That would probably hurt his chances. But I assumed by the way they played, they were going to be a playoff team, and they were. That's a pretty big stage, so he's had a chance to show his wares.
"I think he's a very good player. He's a very high-risk player. He's one of the few takeaway guys in the game today. I think Villanova uses him in different ways. He'll play a zone and he'll be very aggressive and try to take the ball away. They'll slide him through a zone, they'll put him up top to try and take it away from a midfielder, they'll put him on the sideline on an out-of-bounds play to try and shut that off. I thought he did a very good job in our game. He made a great play to take the ball away at the end when we were trying to take the air out of it. He was responsible for that goal. He does some great things. He's a very good lacrosse player."
Desko should know. He saw first hand Karalunas strip his most dangerous dodger, JoJo Marasco, in the last minute of Syracuse's 5-4 Big East victory on March 26. Karalunas not only stripped Marasco, he scooped up the loose ball, ran the length of the field, fed teammate Kevin Cunningham sitting on the left wing, who then rifled home the tying goal with :57 left to play.
Marasco later made up for it by scoring the game-winner with :06 left.
What puts Karalunas on a different plain is how he reacted to the Syracuse loss. He didn't look what he did do. No, Karalunas lugged around the thought of what — in his mind — he didn't do.
"I thought I should have been there on that last Syracuse goal," Karalunas said. "Our defense let up a goal and I thought I should have picked that pass off. I blamed myself. I always blame myself when the defense lets up a goal. I thought I should have done something better; I missed that ball by an inch. I wish I could have extended a little more. A million things go through your head. What sticks out to me was that I had 40 seconds to enjoy that play and I was devastated by the loss. I'm still living with that Syracuse loss. I'm never one to believe in moral victories. I'm always trying to improve."
Maybe it explains why Karalunas made an emotional apology to his teammates after the Syracuse game. Or why he sat in Villanova coach Mike Corrado's office pouring over the final play, examining every milli-second of the pass Karalunas felt he missed.
This from the player who finished No. 1 in the country in caused turnovers, with 68 over the Wildcats' 15-game regular season, averaging 4.53 a game, and easily outdistancing Detroit's Jordan Houtby (52-3.25 ave.) and Penn's Will Koshansky (43-3.07 ave.) in that category.
"Brian is really that demanding of himself," Corrado said. "He's without question the greatest player to ever play at Villanova, and you have to put him in the argument for Player of the Year. You have to. He's about getting better and working to get better. It's funny, because a lot of our kids will go a summer semester abroad, or get a summer job on Wall Street with internships. Brian started his own business with a friend of his doing landscaping. When I heard he played in three leagues this summer, it didn't surprise me.
"That's the kind of kid he is. The area that I'd say Brian's improved in more than anything this year as a senior captain is his off the field stuff. He's as approachable to a freshman that barely plays, to our top players on the team. He wants everyone to understand that this is serious and we have to work hard at it. Brian is the total package."
Whether or not Karalunas will continue running his Quality Home and Lawn Care this summer is debatable. He was selected 35th overall by the Long Island Lizards in the sixth round, a bargain for a player that if Major League Lacrosse were to hold its draft again today, Karalunas may not get out of the top 10.
Karalunas kept track of the January 21st draft by computer, sitting with friends as 34 names were chosen before his. He kept waiting … and waiting … and waiting … until finally. It rankled him a little bit, it brought back some memories of his recruiting process out of Jamesville-Dewitt.
"It's great to be drafted, but to see myself fall that far, to slip to 35th overall, yes, that bothered me, it adds fuel to the fire; it's motivation," Karalunas said. "I'd say I was a little angry about it. I've played under the radar for a long time in my career. I'm used to it. Our team, for instance, was rated low. We felt we deserved to be rated higher than we were in the beginning of the season. It works the same way for me personally with the draft.
"You're waiting there in anticipation and you feel pretty confident going in. Then no one is picking you. And no one is picking you. And you see yourself going down farther. It reminded me a lot of the high school recruiting process. That told me I still have more to prove, I guess. That the team, and me, we can play at the highest echelon of lacrosse."
A free spirit off the field, Karalunas finished his final senior semester with a 4.0 GPA. He'll graduate with a degree in philosophy, and a 3.9 cumulative GPA. He's thinking about graduate school, possibly law school, possibly coming back to Villanova in some capacity as a graduate assistant, possibly working on Wall Street, or possibly climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.
He's looking forward to playing for the Lizards this summer, and keeping up with his quirky pre-game habits of eating sushi and sipping hot tea before games. He'll play MLL with the promise of causing chaos for every team the Lizards face, coming from nowhere to knock the ball free. He'll do it without dirt under his fingernails, or arriving in a pick-up truck with mud-caked work boots on.
He won't need them. Anyone watching Karalunas play will know he's hard at work.

So... i'm just looking for a bit of advice from people who have gone a few steps further than I have.
Say you were trying to crack the WPA of an access point, but a dictionary attack FAILED.
Where do you go next? For example... i used the CUPP tool to generate some 'possible' passwords, with what little information i can gather. This did not present me with the password.
So would anyone be kind enough to pass on some tips about what they would do next to try and get information about the AP; given that the ONLY information you have about it is the SSID.
CUPP is great, but it didn't come good for me this time. Are there other tools out there that can help.
i realise that this could be construed as being "spoon-fed" and could potentially incur an infraction of the "big-red-pwn-button" type..., but the reality is that I do not know where to turn next; in terms of password generators etc...
so any advice would be gratefully recieved.
Wouldn't a rogue AP coupled with a metasploit payload to send you back all the wireless keys be a good idea about now ?
Ive never tried it myself "hopefully this weekend" but i remember reading that its possible ... atleast on XP anyways.
I have also heard that depending on the company and firmware revision there might be ways to exploit the router and grab the settings without having the WPA key.
I was also thinking there might be a way to dos the AP causing the user or admin to reset the settings. If your fast enough and know what your doing once he resets it. You could log in and sniff all the passwords that he is inputting.
There are TONS of other social engineering attacks you could attempt depending on the situation.
Using backtrack for the first time is like being 10 years old again with the keys to a Ferrari.

Police were called to the home around 1am because the caller said there was a female at the party who was hitting people and wouldn't stop and wouldn't leave. When police arrived they took statements from people at the party and noticed visible injuries on the sister and nephew and arrested Hope. There was no sign of her husband, who Hope married immediately after he was arrested for hitting her and getting arrested. Those charges were later dropped when Hope refused to press charges.

Thank you for your interest in Soka University of America. Please find some common questions that are asked by students regarding academics below:
When do students generally register for classes?
Students typically register in mid-November and mid-April of each academic year. For more information, please visit the Office of the Registrar website.
What is our major at Soka University of America?
There is only one major at Soka University of America, a B.A. in Liberal Arts with concentrations in Environmental Studies, Humanities, International Studies and Social and Behavioral Sciences. Degree offerings and concentrations will increase as enrollment grows. See Catalog.
Who is my academic advisor?
Meeting and engaging in dialogue regularly with the academic advisor is an integral part of the Soka experience. New students will be assigned a preliminary academic advisor. When a student declares a concentration, he or she should choose an academic advisor in an appropriate academic area. Students may change advisors at any time. The academic year calendar will provide specific dates for academic advising during which the student should consult with his or her advisor prior to registration for the subsequent session.
All students are required to meet with their advisors prior to enrollment in classes. In addition, juniors are required to declare a concentration. Failure to meet these requirements will result in an "advisor hold" on the student's academic record preventing them from registering for classes.
Do I need to apply to graduate?
Yes, at the end of your junior year, if you are graduating the following spring, you must complete the Intent to Graduate Form and submit it to the Office of the Registrar.

The Lamp in Hakone
The entire time I was in Hakone, it would not stop raining. This is not a great thing, when you finally make it to a place you are very excited about and there is a torrential downpour. So what to do? Well I didn't want to walk away empty-carded (new word I just made up – feel free to use it!), so I lugged out the umbrella and took a stroll to see what I could find. And now, I'm happy I did.

The Stone Temple Pilots legal dispute continues
Listen to the Stone Temple Pilots on iHeartRadio
Scott Weiland is apologizing to the fans "caught in the middle" of a legal dispute with his former Stone Temple Pilots bandmates. The rocker issued the mea culpa this past Saturday during his concert in Philadelphia with his new backing band, the Wildabouts.
After the crowd started chanting "f*** you Chester" in reference to STP's current singer, Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington, Weiland thanked them for their support. He also said he believes it will all work out in the end, and added that he's not really sure why Bennington chose to join a band that is "actually nameless."
Weiland is suing the Stone Temple Pilots for using that name without him. The rest of the band, however, sued Weiland first for allegedly using the name to promote his solo career. But Weiland told the Philly crowd on Saturday that all he really wants to do is play music.
He's scheduled to bring the latest leg of his Purple at the Core tour to a close this week with stops in South Carolina on Tuesday, Georgia on Wednesday, and Florida on Friday and Saturday.

Mohr Davidow Partner Sue Siegel Speaks at Xconomy Forum: Computing in the Age of the $1000 Genome
An incredible innovation story has been unfolding in the world of gene sequencing, which is giving rise to one of today's grand challenges of computing. New DNA sequencing tools are improving at such a rapid pace that scientists say it will soon be possible to generate the 3-billion-letter signature of an individual's DNA for $1,000, and possibly in as little as 15 minutes of work. If this can be done on a large scale, scientists expect it will create an enormously deep set of information to clear the way for a more personalized brand of medicine.
There are still immense challenges to be confronted before this vision can become reality. This genomic data will need to be stored, secured, backed up, analyzed, and visualized in order for it to live up to its promise. While most of the innovation of the past decade has concentrated on the sequencing instruments themselves, scientists increasingly are struggling to make sense of these massive datasets, which is creating new opportunities for tech companies. Xconomy will convene some of the West Coast's leading entrepreneurs, scientists, and investors to talk about the role computing will play in this big story of the coming decade.
