Whenever I talk to someone in the office about Jessica Alba and The Honest Company, the first thing I usually hear is that if you ever give the company your e-mail address then you are going to hear from the company all the time trying to get you to buy their products. All the time. They are also one of those companies that get your credit card number and want to send you stuff every month and that it is almost impossible to get the payments stopped. The only way to get the payments stopped is to cancel your credit card or wait until the old one expires. Hopefully you didn't owe them any money before that card expired because then you get calls from them all the time demanding their money.
All of those complaints have led The Honest Company down a slippery slope and they now have a very low rating from the BBB and have had their accreditation revoked. Combine that with her doing business with companies that have been banned from doing business in the US because of dangerous products and you would think it would be on its last legs. Nope. That Target deal they have about to start will make her a ton of money and ensure lots of other people will be complaining about her and her company for a long time.

Dakota Will See You Now...
Photos via Elle UK
Dakota Fanning by David Slijper for Elle UK February 2012
Styled by Anne-Marie Curtis
It is no secret that I am not a fan of celebrities covering fashion magazines.
But for Dakota, and for her sister Elle, I will make an exception.
There is something so appealing about them, and I do actually like reading about what new films they are working on and what designers they are wearing.
Usually celebrities are styled and photographed (and photoshopped) in the same red carpet gowns, in the same poses, every single time. I love how Dakota and Elle's photos are not the same old 'celebrity' photographs, and how stylists can take some major fashion risks on the girls, like by putting them in more high fashion runway looks and edgier styles. I also love how mature and talented they are, and how they are true actors in their films, which is incredibly refreshing.
I know the girls have quite a few films coming out this year, so may this be the first of many covers in this new year.
I am dying for Vogue US to do Dakota, which could potentially be one of Vogue US's greatest. But we will just wait and see, xx

The 15in MacBook Pro with Retina Display won us over with its awesome power, beautiful body and hi-res screen. The only hitch? Its wallet-shattering price.
So say hello to the new 13in MacBook Pro with Retina Display. It's more affordable, portable... and may just be one our favourite laptops ever.
screen and resolution
This new 13in Macbook Pro lowers the price of owning a Retina Display laptop, while still squeezing almost as many pixels into a frame that's lighter and easier to carry than its 15in brother.
The stunning 2560x1600 display is arguably a more useful size than that of the 15in model, and although the larger model retains its title of highest-res laptop display (at 2880x1800), the 13-incher steals the pixels-per-inch prize with 227ppi (compared with the 15in model's 220ppi).
What does this mean when you have your nose pressed up against the screen? Text looks simply incredible - sharper than anything you've seen on a laptop display before.
The experience of typing or reading long articles now becomes a wonderful massage for your eyes. Everything from hi-res photos to icons to notifications are mesmerizing, with vibrant colours that put previous MacBooks to shame. Oh, and the screen also has excellent viewing angles (Apple claims a 178-degree viewing angle, and we have no reason to doubt them).
That said, a Retina MacBook cannot magically improve the resolution of today's web images. The Internet is still crammed with images that have been produced using PhotoShop's 'Save for the web', so don't expect everything to look 4x more glorious than it does on a 1440x900 display.
It will take a while for the web to play catch-up (and if you run your own site, here's Apple's guide to fixing your own images to look great on hi-res displays).
design and build
Like the MacBook Air, the 13in Retina Macbook Pro has no optical drive. While this may be a pain from time to time, leaving out the drive has enabled Apple to craft a beautiful, sleek design that should be enough compensation the next time you need to insert an installation disc.
Otherwise, there's no radical overhaul to MacBook styling. The sexy aluminium body is still present and correct, albeit slimmer (19mm) and lighter (1.6kg). While other manufacturers go for light and skinny from the off, Apple has always won the build battle by making something desirable first, and then concentrating on making it smaller and lighter. It's a tactic that seems to be working again.
The keyboard and trackpad are as subtly responsive and easy to use as ever - attributes not to be sniffed at when so many Ultrabooks get it so horribly wrong.
Your new Macbook can deal with the world around it via two Thunderbolt ports, two USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI output, an SD card reader and Bluetooth 4.0. However, there's no ethernet socket - another occasional annoyance, particularly when travelling.
processing power and gaming
It may not be as portable as a MacBook Air, but with a 2.5GHz dual-core Core i5 running the show, the 13in Retina has been built to be the only laptop you'll ever need.
It may not be able to match the sheer horsepower of the 15in models (thanks to their quad-core Core i7 chips and NVIDIA GeForce 650M graphics), but the 13in Pro is still very impressive. You won't ever see the spinning-wheel-of-death, even when editing 1080p videos or playing Portal 2 at 2560x1660 (don't panic when the settings menu text becomes very, very small).
The new 13in Pro is available with 128GB and 256GB (flash) storage options, the latter will costing an extra £250. Just don't expect to be able to open up the Retina Display MacBook Pro and slot in your own SSD.
If you're serious about playing Mac games in ultra-hi-res at speedy framerates, or spending a good chunk of your life editing massive video files, we'd guide you toward the 15in version. But for the rest of us, the 13in size is more practical for on-the-go computing.
battery life
In common with its 15in brother, the 13in Retina Display MacBook Pro is not the longest-lasting of laptops away from a wall socket.
Battery life is slightly improved over the 15in. Apple claims around seven hours, but we found we could run for up to four-and-a-half hours of constant web surfing, image editing, gaming and watching movies between charges.
With all those pixels to push around that amazing display, that kind of battery performance is hardly a big surprise. Just make sure that newly redesigned MagSafe power connector is never too far from reach.
Until the next crop of Ultrabooks (or Chromebooks?) arrive with better-than-Retina displays, this is the laptop we'd choose if money were no object.
Yes, the 15in Retina Display MacBook Pro offers more processing power. But the 13in model's more compact form factor and lighter weight mean you can take this eye-popping laptop anywhere without a second thought.
Although £1450 can hardly be described as cheap, we think the Pro actually represents excellent value for money. Ultrabook rivals such as the Asus Taichi, Dell XPS 13 and HP Envy 14 Spectre aren't shy of crossing the £1000 threshold. And in the case of this Apple, you can spend safe in the knowledge that you've got a fairly future-proof resolution on your hands.
The 13in Retina MacBook Pro is the way to go if you want a taste of the laptop future today.

Matt Aune puts his arm around his partner, Derek Jones, pulling him close as four large men in dark suits gather around them July 9 on the Main Street Plaza.
The couple argue with the LDS Church guards, who yank the two men apart and put them in handcuffs. Jones falls to the ground.
Newly released security-film footage shows this scuffle, which ensued after Jones and Aune were stopped after they kissed on the church-owned plaza. The Salt Lake Tribune obtained the film through an open-records request with Salt Lake City.
"It's as violent as I remember them being," Aune said. "I'm kind of wondering where the kiss is though."
That much-debated smooch is not in the film the church provided to Salt Lake City prosecutor Sim Gill as part of a city investigation into trespassing charges leveled against the gay couple.
Aune and Jones have said their romantic moment was modest: Aune gave Jones a "side hug" and a kiss on the face. But the LDS Church said "much more" was involved -- "passionate kissing, groping, profane and lewd language." (The couple have acknowledged they swore at the guards after being stopped.)
"When they became belligerent, the two individuals were asked to leave church property," the church said in a statement earlier this month. "Church security detained them and Salt Lake City police were called."
Gill dropped the trespassing case Wednesday, saying that signs on the downtown plaza did not properly notify visitors that they were entering private property "at will," meaning they could be ejected at any time for any reason.
The prosecutor said Thursday he asked the church for all audio and video recordings of the incident, including the kiss.
"I assume there's nothing more because I was provided with everything," Gill said. "My request wasn't selective."
The LDS Church declined to comment on the video or its plans for signs and access to the plaza.
The grainy black-and-white film lacks sound and is shot from one camera, which appears to have a human at the controls, panning and zooming in to capture the encounter.
The argument between the guards and the gay couple becomes heated. Two guards gesture emphatically with their hands, and Aune jabs his finger in the air.
Three guards grab Aune and one pulls on Jones, who then falls out of the shot. Aune is momentarily obscured behind a large tree.
"I looked to my left," Aune recalled, "and [Jones] was down on the ground with his left cheek on the pavement, looking at me."
The LDS Church, in its July 17 statement, said the two were asked to "stop engaging in behavior deemed inappropriate for any couple on the plaza."
But Aune and Jones say they were targeted because they are gay.
The guards, Aune said Thursday, told them their display of affection was "disgusting," "gross" and "wrong."
Supporters of the couple have staged two "kiss-in" demonstrations at the Main Street Plaza, and a similar rally -- part of a nationwide event -- has been scheduled for Aug. 15 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at downtown's Washington Square.
Jones and Aune said this week they are ready to move on and do not plan to file a lawsuit over the matter.

MALVERN, PA -- USA Technologies has announced the latest option available to operators using its ePort Connect service: two-tier vend pricing. This permits offering customers a discount for using cash.
USAT observed that the card associations allow operators to offer a discount for cash purchases, but the higher price for debit/credit cannot be positioned as an additional fee. The vending machine must clearly communicate to patrons that there are two vend prices: one for credit/debit purchases, and the other a lower, discounted cash price.
"You improve your margins by reducing your costs and increasing your sales and profits," USAT pointed out. "And your consumers get the convenience of using their credit and debit cards for payment at your machines." The system accommodates 5¢ adjustments; a 10¢ price differential is suggested.
The program is easy to implement, the company explained: all that's needed is to decide which accounts, and which machines, are to be converted to two-tier pricing, the difference in price between cash and card transactions and the date on which the change is to take place. This information is used to fill out an activation form for submission to USAT, at least a week before the date of implementation. The company's Jim Turner will assist in setting up the new arrangement, which will be accomplished automatically by means of ePort Connect's over-the-air update capability.
There is no charge for the first 12 machines adjusted for two-tier pricing; additional machines can be added at a one-time service fee of $10, which covers USAT's cost to update the machine over the air, and to make the necessary changes to the machine records in the operator's USA Live account.
"Consumer education is an important part of implementing two-tier pricing," USAT emphasized. "The two price points must be clearly articulated at the point of sale, so consumers understand the higher price for using their credit/debit cards at your machine."
The company recommends affixing a POS decal that explains the difference in price. Operators can obtain preprinted labels for the recommended 10¢ price difference, or generic labels on which alternative amounts can be filled in, directly from USAT. Operators also can print their own custom labels.

VIDEO: How to make a biscuit joint
The Family Handyman editor, Ken Collier, explains the basics of using a biscuit joiner—a great tool for building cabinets, bookshelves and other woodworking projects.
Biscuit Basics
It's easy to fall in love with biscuit joints—they're so fast and easy. At least they are when you get the hang of them. If you're new to biscuit joinery, you can learn here how to do the four basic woodworking joints. Even if you already own a biscuit joiner (or plate joiner—same animal), I'm sure you'll pick up a tip or two. Either way, be sure to check out these biscuit joint articles and projects.
If you want to get started using biscuits (or "plates," as they're sometimes called), you can pick up an entry-level machine for about $100. Five minutes of fooling around with the machine or a little time with our online videos and you'll have the basic idea: Use the machine to cut slots in both parts, and then add glue to each, insert a biscuit, clamp to hold, and you're done. Your tool manual will show how to adjust the tool.
The cool thing about biscuit joinery is that the biscuit is made from compressed wood. The biscuit fits loosely in its slot, which makes assembly easy, but it expands after the glue has had a few minutes to soak in, so it fits extremely tight. You have a little window of time when the two pieces you're joining can be slid sideways into perfect alignment. Biscuit joinery may not be for the DIYer who's just building one cabinet, but if you have a lot of cabinets in your future, a biscuit joiner is a great tool to own.
Making Cabinet Boxes With T-Joints
This is where joinery shines: the T-joint, where a fixed shelf meets the sides of a cabinet (Photos 1 – 3). The sideways wiggle room that biscuits give you allows you to get the edges of the shelf and the sides perfectly flush, and the case looks good, with or without a face frame, both inside and out. And since the glue is all on the biscuits, there's rarely any squeeze-out to clean up.
The process for making a T-joint begins with marking on the edge of the sides where the top of the shelf should be. Stand the shelf in position and mark the biscuit locations. Then lay the shelf on its side, lined up with its location mark. Clamp the side and shelf together and to your bench, with the edges flush to each other. Now cut your biscuit slots, first in one piece, then in the other. Do the other side of the cabinet the same way, making sure the shelf is oriented the right way: front to front, bottom to the bottom.
VIDEO: How to Make a T-Joint With a Biscuit Joiner
The Family Handyman editor, Ken Collier, shows you how to make a T-joint for shelves in bookcases or cabinets. This basic technique will give you strong, reliable shelves and it's an easy joint to master.
Making Cabinet Boxes: L-Joints
Biscuits are also a great way to make an L-joint, for example, to join a cabinet top to the sides (Photos 4 – 6). For this kind of joint, you usually want to have the outside edges flush, without a little step. So use the fence to ensure the pieces are flush on the outside. When you're using the fence, be certain your workpiece extends completely off the edge of the workbench. Also, press down firmly on the fence to make sure the slot is cut properly; it's easy for the fence to be tipped.
VIDEO: How to Make an L-Joint With a Biscuit Joiner
The Family Handyman editor, Ken Collier, shows you a great technique for putting a top on a bookcase. Making an L-joint with biscuits will give you a strong top on many woodworking projects.
Fence or no fence?
The joiner is designed to be used two ways: You can have the fence down, which allows you to align the biscuits to a surface that faces up, that the fence rests on (Photos 5 and 6). You can also fold the fence in, which allows you to align the biscuits with the bottom of the tool (Photos 2 and 3). The trick is to figure out which one to use, then use it consistently.
Imagine you're joining two pieces of different thicknesses edge to edge. Using the fence allows you to get the top surfaces flush; using the bottom of the joiner (no fence) allows you to get the bottom surfaces flush. When you use a joiner without the fence, the slot is centered in 3/4-in. material. For any other spacing, you need to use the fence.
VIDEO: How to Glue Biscuit Joints
The Family Handyman editor, Ken Collier, shows you how to glue and clamp biscuit joints for a strong and nearly invisible joint.
Making Face Frames
Plate joinery is a fast way to make face frames. It's also a convenient way if you're already using the joiner for the cabinet boxes. To join face frames with biscuits, you usually need to let the biscuit extend past the outside of the frame and trim it off. Just be sure you've got your face frame pieces supported, since they're usually narrow (Photo 8). I like to line up the middle of the biscuit, and the mark on the joiner, with the edge of the face frame so half the biscuit is being glued. Of course, on wide rails you can sometimes use the entire biscuit.
Biscuit Joints for Edging Plywood
If you're gluing solid wood edging onto plywood, biscuits can make it a success (Photos 9 – 11). If you try to glue the edging on perfectly flush, a small section inevitably ends up lower than the surface of the plywood, which is a disaster. The trick is to leave the solid wood a fraction above the surface of the plywood, then sand it flush. The plate joiner makes it easy.

In a move that promises a future of higher performance, cheaper and more elegant iPhone, Macbook and desktop casings, Apple has signed an exclusive deal with Liquidmetal Technologies, a company that makes a special metallic glass.
Unlike regular metal products, which have a crystal structure that prevents die casting and provides natural points for dents and scratches to form, Liquidmetal Technologies "amorphous" metal combines the strength of steel with a low weight and die cast compatibility.
Liquidmetal Technologies produces an amorphous metal called Vitreloy, which is primarily composed of zircon. Used mainly for sporting equipment so far, the company has also produced components of cell phone cases in the past, said William Johnson, former vice chairman of technology at Liquidmetal Technologies, professor of materials science at Caltech and inventor of Vitreloy.
"The material is durable, hard, scratch resistant, and can be processed thermo-plastically at relatively low temperature," Johnson told TechNewsDaily.
Vitreloy "tends to be lighter than steel, a bit heavier than titanium. You can produce complex, three-dimensional shapes pretty well."
Vitreloy "tends to be lighter than steel, a bit heavier than titanium. You can produce complex, three dimensional shapes pretty well."
By replacing the current metal and plastic cases with Vitreloy, Apple can drastically increase the toughness of their products while reducing the weight. But whether or not this move will reduce the cost remains to be seen.
What's so special about this metal, you ask?
- With approximately 2.5 times the strength of commonly used titanium alloy and 1.5 times the hardness of commonly used stainless steel, Liquidmetal alloys enable sophisticated, engineered designs required by the evolution of new technologies
- Enables thinner, smaller designs while providing greater protection for internal components
- Permits thinner walls while providing greater strength
- Allows larger, wider screens for expanded features and capabilities
- With precision net-shape casting, Liquidmetal alloys can be readily fashioned into intricate, innovative designs resulting in a unique aesthetic advantage
- Excellent durability
- Scratch and corrosion resistant
- Non-reactive

A mammogram may help in the diagnosis of breast problems, including cancer. Although recommendations vary, many experts suggest that a woman have a baseline mammogram at age 40, followed by a mammogram every couple of years until age 50. After 50, a woman should have a mammogram every 1 - 2 years.

In an effort to lend that same assistance on a more industry-wide basis, we have assembled a few of the more common questions, issues and problems, along with our explanations and recommendations surrounding the coffee grinding industry.
Coffee Grind Varies from Time to Time: Sometimes I get a good grind and a little while later it has changed!
There are several areas of possibilities given this scenario.
One: the grind changes because of the condition of the whole bean coffee going into the grinder.
Think of a coffee grinder as being nuts and bolts and, while things can break, typically the grinder will do the same thing every time.
One of the factors that can affect the whole bean condition includes the amount of time that has accrued between roasting and grinding and, if too short (and the roasted beans are still warm), the friability, or grindability, changes. Typically, a coffee roaster will quench the coffee at the end of the roast cycle to check the development of the roasting process, and moisture remains on the outside of the coffee bean for a short period of time. Thereafter, this moisture, as well as other chemical transformations that are occurring in the coffee bean, become factors in the required cooling and holding of the coffee beans for a period of time after roasting and before grinding.
To better understand this concept, it should be noted that grinding is a misnomer and the process properly described is more of a fracturing/cracking of the coffee bean between rotating surfaces, at which point an explosion occurs and the resultant particle granulation produces a particle distribution or grind. When coffee beans of reduced friability are introduced into the grinder, such as those still hot from the roaster, they will fracture (grind) less and a larger grind will result. But wait four hours and that same coffee will be able to produce, again, its optimal grind.
Coffee grinder wear/condition: If the coffee grinding equipment is worn, and the rollers or burrs need reconditioning or replacing, the grind achieved will be increasingly uncontrolled; Regardless of the grinding methodology, sharp edges are used to fracture/crack/cut the coffee bean at a precise rate. If these corrugations (rolls) or ridges (discs) are worn-out, the only way that the coffee grind can be achieved is by crushing and friction, neither of which produces a good grind.
Grind measurement methodology.
If we consider any quantity of ground coffee as having a population of differently-sized particles which, as an average, comprise a standard grind size, then it becomes clear that in measuring that quantity of coffee, that same exact percentage of differently-sized particles, in proportion to each other, is vital to certifying a proper grind. Whether a ro-tap, laser or other method is used for testing the ground coffee, it is critical to maintain that same proportion of particles throughout the transporting or sample preparation process. For instance, if coffee is merely poured into a container for testing, that simple act of pouring can declassify the various particles that make up that grind, giving it an erroneous test result.
Coffee Sediment: I find fine coffee particles that look like sediment at the bottom of my coffee cup.
If we consider that ground coffee is made up of a wide variety of particle sizes, and these particle sizes can range from 10 to 1,500 microns, One can see that the more uniform the particle size along that spectrum, the greater the brewing performance will be. For instance, if we want a 700 micron (drip) average particle size, but we have a high percentage of 200 or 1,000 micron particles as well, then the brewed coffee will be over-extracted or underextracted, respectively.
Now, if we introduce a more extreme coffee grind, where the 700 micron (target) grind is populated by some 10 micron particles, which were generated by the friction and crushing method in 1 (B) above, those particles will migrate through the filter medium to appear as sediment in the cup, a result that goes far beyond appearances. Unfortunately, that sediment will create a bitter sensation due to not only the over-extraction that has occurred as a result of the particle size, but also as the result of the sediment that will reside on the palate which, in addition to the appearance in the bottom of the cup, causes an inferior taste.
This particular symptom is important as coffee grinds tend to become finer which will, by definition, result in a higher percentage of finer particles. If not controlled, these particles will include the very small micron variety.
Pods: I don't get the same brew performance from my pods as my portion brewed method.
Pods make grinding requirements even tougher, since this application requires a greater control of the grind distribution and, typically, a smaller particle size (grind). At the same time, the product's bulk density is important since pods need to be a certain size for packaging and brewing consistency. It has been commonplace for pod equipment manufacturers to affix disc grinders to the top of their pod machines to provide the required ground coffee. Although this is convenient, the ability of any disc grinder to produce this required grind is limited and, as an alternative, roller-style grinders are far superior in these applications.
In as much as the particle size required in pod manufacturing is often 300 – 500 micron, the generation of finer particles that could produce coffee sediment, bitterness and increased brew time will be a factor and should be avoided at all costs.
Coffee Darkening: My coffee gets darker during grinding. Is that normal and, if not, how can it be avoided?
There are two possibilities for this condition, one due to heat generation in the grinder/normalizer/mixer during grinding and the other being a perceived difference due to color measurement technology. Grinder heat and the resultant temperature increase of ground coffee is a function of the amount of energy required to grind a certain quantity of coffee. Remember physics? All energy eventually returns to its final form, which is heat. There are a few grinding relationships that reflect this: As coffee is ground finer, more total energy is required, hence more heat.
In addition to the above, as coffee is ground finer, less coffee is produced and, consequently, the energy required per pound produced goes up even higher. Think of it as, say: As any coffee grinder wears, the otherwise sharp teeth and corrugations become dull and, like a knife, more energy is required to fracture/crack/cut the coffee than when they were sharp. Basically, it's the same as cutting a piece of meat. When the knife dulls, it takes longer and the amount of energy required (muscle) increases. The end result is more energy (heat) and an inferior cut.
The densifier/normalizer/mixer, which is part of a commercial coffee grinder, or Gran-U-Lizer, is used to reduce the chaff as well as to modify density. Since energy is being consumed to perform this function, this is another area for heat generation and coffee darkening.
(Note: One of the benefits of water-cooled coffee grinders is that color change is minimized (and flavor, volatiles and aromatics retention(s) are maximized) because the heat generation in the grinder is dissipated away from the grinding rolls.)
The alternative indication of color change involves instrumentation measurement differences.
When coffee is ground on, say, a disc grinder in the laboratory, and a color sample is established through a colormeter, with particle shape, consistency and a myriad of other factors playing into the final tally, or numerical color shade.
Now, if we take that same whole bean and grind it through a roller-style grinder, many of those factors that contributed to the color shade are different and an inconsistent color match will be inevitable. Often, the roller-style grind will measure dark when, in fact, the color is consistent and that particular grind is superior in every way, including grind uniformity, heat generation, etc.
Color standards must match apples to apples and a lab-ground whole bean sample cannot be expected to be color comparable to a Gran-U-Lizer ground product; however, a particular color standard can be established for each grinding methodology, which can then be certified for future color control purposes.
It's clear that coffee grinding significantly affects both brew quality and taste. In fact, coffee grinding is one of the two most important processing functions affecting the quality and taste of coffee, the other being roasting. This makes it a critically important factor in our business and one that merits the highest level of attention.
Good luck and good grinding!

Paula Patton breaks silence on Robin Thicke split
Paula Patton appears to address her split from Robin Thicke in a new Instagram post.
The actress shared a photo with the message, "Everything happens for a reason. If you love something let it go, if it comes back it's yours, if it doesn't, it never was, and it's not meant to be."
As previously reported, Thicke has been pulling out all the stops to get Patton back, telling a photographer he's not giving up on their marriage and dedicating a song to her at his concert on Thursday night.

Rock Hill, S.C. - The Tornados were selected tenth in the annual South Atlantic Conference Preseason Coaches Poll, as announced by the conference office on Tuesday.
Coach Brenda Skeffington and seniors Lindsey Rogers, Jordei Osby, Cassie Smatana and Ashlie Morrison will look to lead the way for the Tornados as they begin their fourth full season as members of the SAC and the NCAA Division II.
Five-time defending South Atlantic Conference champion Wingate has been picked as the favorite to win the league title again in 2011, the conference office released on Tuesday.
League coaches gave the Bulldogs six of the 10 first place votes in the preseason poll. WU had a total of 93 points.
Wingate is coming off a dominant season, in which it went 31-2 overall, 18-0 in the SAC, and had a streak of 29 consecutive wins. The Bulldogs advanced to the NCAA Division II Volleyball Championship quarterfinals.
The Bulldogs haven't lost a conference match since 2006.
Just behind Wingate in the preseason coaches' poll is Tusculum with 89 points, including one first-place vote. The Pioneers also had an impressive 2010, going 25-7 overall, 16-2 in the SAC. Tusculum was runner-up in last year's SAC Championship, and earned a selection into the NCAA Southeast Regional Championship.
Coming in third in the preseason coaches' poll was Carson-Newman with 71 points and one first-place vote. The Eagles advanced to the semifinals of last year's NCAA Southeast Regional Championship, and finished with an overall record 20-11 and 10-8 in league play.
Catawba is fourth in the poll with 68 points. Coming off last season's 14-13, 9-9 record, the Indians also received one first-place vote in the preseason poll.
Lincoln-Memorial, a 2010 NCAA Southeast Regional Championship selection is fifth in the poll, followed by Newberry, which also received a first-place vote, and Mars Hill tied for the No. 6 slot.
Rounding out the coaches' poll is Anderson at No. 8, Lenoir-Rhyne at No. 9 and Brevard at No. 10.

ICC says it cant investigate alleged Israeli war crimes (TIMES OF ISRAEL) By RAPHAEL AHREN 04/03/12)
Source: http://www.timesofisrael.com/international-criminal-court-rejects-calls-for-investigation-into-alleged-israeli-war-crimes/

Criminal court in The Hague rejects Palestinian request, since Palestine is not a full UN member state
The International Criminal Court on Tuesday rejected a Palestinian petition to prosecute Israel for alleged violations in the West Bank and Gaza because Palestine is not a full member state of the United Nations.
While pro-Israel advocates hailed the decision as a victory in the arena of lawfare, the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem greeted it with a lukewarm response.
A few days after Operation Cast Lead, in early 2009, Palestinian Justice Minister Ali Khashan wrote to the International Criminal Cour asking it to investigate Israels conduct in the West Bank and Gaza. In his letter, he officially recognized the jurisdiction of the ICC for the purpose of identifying, prosecuting, and judging the authors and accomplices of acts committed on the territory of Palestine since 1 July, 2002.
Founded in 2002, the Hague-based ICC seeks to help end impunity for the perpetrators of the most serious crimes of concern to the international community, according to its website. The ICC prosecutors office launched an preliminary probe to determine whether to proceed with an investigation, allowing, among other things, the Arab Leagues Independent Fact Finding Committee on Gaza to address the court.
But according to the 1998 Rome Statute, which governs the ICC, the court can only become active when either the United Nations Security Council or a state provide jurisdiction. The question the ICC had to grapple with was whether to consider Palestine a state.
And while the ICC prosecutors office noted that Palestine has been recognised as a State in bilateral relations by more than 130 governments and by certain international organisations, including United Nation bodies, the organization concluded that because Palestines current status is that of observer and not a non‐ member state, it had presently no jurisdiction to launch an investigation into acts committed in Palestine.
Israel made it clear in the first place that the ICC has no jurisdiction in this matter, the Foreign Ministry responded Tuesday in a dryly worded statement. In Israel, the issue has, for an extensive period of time already, been addressed by inter-ministerial teams, headed by the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and of Justice, with the participation of other bodies.
Israel welcomes the decision on the lack of ICC jurisdiction, but has reservations regarding some of the legal pronouncements and assumptions in the Prosecutors statement, the statement added.
Some pro-Israel activists, on the other hand, enthusiastically celebrated the decision: Throughout this process, the ICC created to punish the worst perpetrators of war crimes and mass murder was exploited by several EU- and European-government funded non- governmental organizations (NGOs), which intensively lobbied the OTP as part of their campaign to attack the legitimacy of the State of Israel, Anne Herzberg, legal advisor for NGO Monitor, said in a statement released Tuesday.
The fact that the case even proceeded this far was clear legal overreaching, but it shows the strength of NGOs that lead the de- legitimization and demonization campaigns against Israel, said Herzberg, who submitted a 40-page legal brief to the ICC.
The courts decision is a strong rebuke to these NGOs, their political agenda, and their campaign to isolate Israel from the international community, she added. International arenas are routinely hijacked for political purposes, but todays decision was markedly different. (© 2012 THE TIMES OF ISRAEL 04/03/12)

BRONSON - It will not be until after some dust settles that a road to allow access to the Adamsville Cemetery is built, according to information released at the Levy County Board of County Commissioners' Dec. 18 meeting.
J. Rollin Hudson Jr. tried to give the county a 15-foot easement off of U.S. Alt. 27, but County Road Administrator Bruce Greenlee said there are too many problems with the project to accept any easements yet.

When Bill Childs, president and CEO of Chaney Enterprises, was upgraded to first class on a return flight from Florida, he struck up a conversation with the passenger beside him. Lee Rosen, founder and chairman of New Generation Biofuels, had also been bumped. As the two men talked, they realized their new seat assignments could have an even greater benefit than extra leg room.
As he learned about New Generations' renewable fuel during a presentation on Rosen's laptop, Childs saw a new opportunity. Maryland-based Chaney Enterprises operates seven ready-mix plants, four sand and gravel facilities, and a construction materials supply store. The family-owned producer operates responsibly by reclaiming mined land, recycling process water, and marketing sustainable products such as pervious concrete. Even before his trip to Florida, Childs designated 2009 the producer's Year of Sustainability.
By replacing fossil fuel oil with renewable biofuel, Chaney could make its operations and its products more environmentally friendly. After considering emissions performance and cost, the producer committed to using New Generation's renewable fuel in its Infern-O-Therm hot water boilers beginning in November. The partnership marks New Generation's first foray into the concrete industry.
"Biofuel allows us to reduce the carbon footprint of every cubic yard of concrete we ship, with something as easy as switching from fossil fuels to biofuel in our boilers," says Childs.
NOx and SOx
Not to be confused with biodiesel, New Generation Biofuels are made with renewable, non-fossil fuel. Biofuel can be used in industrial applications to replace 100% of distillate fuels without blending them with other fuels, modifying equipment, or sacrificing engine performance.
When burned, biofuels produce significantly lower emissions than diesel. Emulsified water in New Generation Biofuels reduces the peak temperature that occurs when the fuel is burned, reducing nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions up to 60%. Because the feedstocks of these biofuels are inherently free of sulfur, they virtually eliminate sulfur oxide (SOx) emissions.
Chaney expects to break even financially. While biofuel typically costs less than fossil fuel, the producer will need almost 30% more of the renewable fuel to run its boilers. "It's not about saving money, it's about doing things the right way," says Jan Holt, Chaney's chief customer officer. "Even though we'll be using more fuel, we're still reducing our footprint."
While cost savings isn't a producer's main motivation for using renewable fuel, there could be an economic reason. Proposed Cap and Trade legislation in Congress would put a maximum limit on the amount of emissions manufacturers can produce. Each company would be responsible for operating within its limit by installing pollution controls, increasing efficiency, selling or buying emissions allowances, and other means.
"Companies can really monetize the value of biofuel under a carbon Cap and Trade program," says Phil Wallis, New Generation's chief marketing officer.
After a trial period of using the biofuel in its boilers, Chaney plans to expand its use to off-road vehicles. The partners may also collaborate to test it in ready-mix trucks.

Utah Wind Symphony will ends its third season on Wednesday, with the world premiere of a newly commissioned work by Alex Weston, currently the composer-in-residence for the New York-based theater company "True False Theater." Weston will attend the Salt Lake City performance to hear his piece, titled "The Loud Calligraphy of Lightning." Weston's compositions have been performed in many cities throughout the U.S., and The Lyrica Chamber Music Ensemble, a New York metropolitan area chamber group, awarded one of his compositions, Simple Machines, its Student Composers award. Weston also works as a music assistant to influential American composer, Philip Glass.Under the direction of Scott Hagen, the symphony also will perform Holst's masterpiece The Planets, Op. 32, which has been lauded for its unique, one-of-a-kind movements that in modern times have become themes for TV shows, movies and radio. Each of the seven movements is named for a planet in the Solar System and its corresponding astrological sign. When the piece was first premiered in its entirety in 1920, it was an instant success.Also on the bill is John Philip Sousa's Easter Sunday on the White House Lawn. Sousa wrote the piece in tribute to the annual Easter Egg roll that took place at the White House. He performed it in 1928 when Calvin Coolidge was president. The Utah Wind Symphony includes 55 wind, brass and percussion musicians from throughout the state. The ensemble presents four concerts during each season, which highlight the works of well-known composers and original pieces from contemporary composers.
Utah Wind Symphony
The season finale includes a world premiere, "The Planets," by Gustav Holst, and a presidential piece by John Philip Sousa.

But wait, there's more
Yes, I know LinuxCon is next, and that's in mid-August, but I think they've got the publicity thing covered, especially with the 20-year thing and with Linus being there and all. But if you're going to the next show, make it the Ohio LinuxFest in September. Bradley Kuhn and Cathy Malmrose are keynoting, so you'll not want to miss that (especially Cathy — Go ZaReason!)
Because there's no proverbial hornet's nest to stir up in the near vicinity, I guess I'll just touch on a few topics and issues that have popped up on the radar as of late. Like
Ohio Linux Fest: There's some big to-do up in Vancouver next week, something about twenty years of a widely used operating system that puts Windows to shame, a guy named Linus who doesn't like GNOME 3 and other luminaries in the Linux constellation of stars, blah blah blah. But for those who can't make that, you might want to head to Columbus, Ohio, to discover the Ohio Linux Fest next month. The event runs from Sept. 9-11 at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in downtown Columbus. The keynoters are Cathy Malmrose, of ZaReason fame, and Bradley Kuhn, of Software Freedom Conservancy fame. As this is the last big event of the year now that Utah Open Source Conference is in mothballs this year until next spring, it might be a good chance to get in a show before the year's out.
But wait, there's more.
Weighing in on SCALE: The folks at the Southern California Linux Expo — that's SCALE 10X in January (that's right, I said January) — plan to pull out a few stops for the show's 10th anniversary. Rather than divulge what I already know, I can tell you they've moved up the show to Jan. 20-22, which is on the tail end of linux.conf.au — LCA2012 if you're keeping score at home — which runs from Jan. 16-20. Can two different hemispheres handle two big expos back to back? Oh, easily.
But wait, there's more.
Tails, you win: Another candidate for the distros-to-try-when-I-get-some-free-time list is called Tails, which stands for The Amnesic Incognito Live System. Michael Reed of Linux Journal writes a rather in-depth article about it on the LJ web site. While it sort of mirrors the latest OS offering from our own Department of Defense, it goes a few steps further for those who are not government workers and/or who want to take those few extra steps in the way of ensuring privacy.
With that, it's time to hit the redwood trail.

Tails, powered by Tor, god of slowness.
Pure Debian with enough security to make
it worthless.
I have a quadcore running at 2.7 with 4gigs of RAM
and it still is slow.
I see no installer, this is just for secure web work when
you need secure web work done.
But it is Debian, look and feel. Synaptic is a little thin but
I think that is for security.

Live CD only. You can go to your favorite HotSpot and surf
with impunity, knowing that even the 12 year old hacker at the
table over in the corner will not LuzSec your laptop.
At some point I will run TAILS and watch from another computer
running "etherape", that should be fun.
So we have LPS Linux, a gift from Uncle Sam and TAILS Linux,
The Amnesic Incognito Live System.
Both have good encryption tools and TAILS adds "tor" for obfuscation. Be careful out there.

Now hear this! Now hear this!
This is the Captain speaking.
All hands listen up!
Mrs. Panik found a winner, I am not bragging about myself here.
The distro of the moment is……. Kororaa Linux
When you finish laughing maybe you can look at:
Based on Fedora 14. This distro is installed on the Dell Mini 12,
known at our house as the Dell from Hell.
Kororaa ran 100% as a live distro! Mrs. Panik said it was the easiest install ever! It has few packages or applications from
the start, they want you to go get what you want/need. Look
and feel is Fedora 14. It comes with Good Gnome rather than
the evil Bad Gnome.
I shall reconnoiter a bit more and report back if there are any
issues, stability and such.
Keep the humor in Linux

August 10, 2011 at 5:33 pm
Okay, now I see the problem. Not being a Fedora type I almost
always passed by the posts here that were just about Fedora.
Now that my wife has had some positive experiences with said
distro the Colonel reads more of Larry's musings, in fact I never
miss a word now.
Fedora, who knew?

Lake County declares a state of emergency
(Mentor) A Declaration of emergency has been filed by the Lake County Board of Commissioners and the Lake County Emergency Management Agency.
Hundreds of homes and businesses have been flooded by an early morning storm on Saturday. In Willowick alone 300 homes have reported flooded basements.
Christine Moran with the American Red Cross says they've been busy doing assessments of property damage from the storms. She says residents with damage are being urged to call the city at 211. You can also find helpful information on the Red Cross's website www.redcross.org and just search flood safety.
She says people don't realize how contaminated flood waters can be. "There's safety issues you should worry about. If any food, even canned items, touches flood waters you should throw it out."
Ken Gauntner with the Lake County Emergency Management Agency says declaring a state of emergency is the first step in a long process. He says assessments need to be done on all the damaged properties which could take a long time.
Several of the homes have flooded basements, which under a new rule don't qualify for emergency funding. Gauntner says Lake County has a certain threshold of property damage that they have to meet. Whether or not they make that threshold determines if Lake County will be eligible for any assistance.

Basal ganglia dysfunctionExtra-pyramidal syndrome
Basal ganglia dysfunction is a problem with the deep brain structures that help start and control movement.
Conditions that cause injury to the brain can damage the basal ganglia. Such conditions include:
- Carbon monoxide poisoning
- Copper poisoning
- Drug overdose
- Head injury
- Infection
- Liver disease
- Metabolic problems
- Multiple sclerosis
- Side effects of certain medications
- Stroke
- Tumors
Many brain disorders are associated with basal ganglia dysfunction. They include:
- Dystonia
- Huntington's disease
- Multiple system atrophy
- Parkinson's disease
- Progressive supranuclear palsy
- Wilson's disease
This list may not be all-inclusive.
Damage to the basal ganglia cells may cause problems with one's ability to control speech, movement, and posture. A person with basal ganglia dysfunction may have difficulty starting, stopping, or sustaining movement. Depending on which area is affected, there may also be problems with memory and other thought processes.
In general, symptoms vary and may include:
- Movement changes, such as involuntary or slowedmovements
- Increased muscle tone
- Muscle spasms and muscle rigidity
- Memory loss
- Problems finding words
- Tremor
- Uncontrollable, repeated movements, speech, or cries (tics)
- Walking difficulty
Exams and Tests
The doctor or nurse will examine you and ask questions about your symptoms and medical history.Blood and imaging testsmay be needed. This may include:
- CT and MRI of the head
- Genetic testing
- Magnetic resonance angiography to look at the blood vessels in the neck and brain
- Positron emission tomography (PET) to look at the metabolism of the brain
- Blood tests to check blood sugar, thyroid function, liver function, and iron and copper levels
Treatment depends on the cause of the disorder.
Outlook (Prognosis)
How well a person does depends on the cause of the dysfunction. Some causes are reversible, while others require lifelong treatment.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if you have any abnormal or involuntary movements, unexplainable falls, or if you or others notice that you are shaky or slow.

Ford moves truck production from Mexico
(Avon Lake) - Ford today announced production of its all-new 2016 F-650 and F-750 medium-duty trucks will shift from Mexico to Ohio Assembly Plant starting early next year, with the trucks on sale in spring 2015.
"Shifting production of the 2016 Ford F-650 and F-750 medium-duty trucks to Ohio Assembly Plant helps secure a solid future for the dedicated workers at this facility" said Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of The Americas. "Building these trucks in-house will utilize our expertise from our other tough truck and commercial vehicle lines to give our customers a better product at a competitive price."
As part of the production shift, Ford is investing $168 million to retool the Cleveland-area plant for the new medium-duty trucks.
Joe Hinrichs
Ohio Assembly Plant, which opened in 1974, currently produces the Ford E-Series lineup of vans and other commercial vehicles.
Ford E-Series cargo and passenger van production will end later this year, while E-Series cutaway vans and stripped chassis will continue to be built in Ohio through most of the decade.
Replacing E-Series vans is the all-new 2015 Ford Transit that starts production this spring at Ford's Kansas City Assembly Plant in Claycomo, Mo.
The production shift from Mexico is part of the collective bargaining agreement Ford and the United Auto Workers negotiated in 2011. Ford's announcement today confirms the company is moving forward with the plan for Ohio Assembly Plant.
"We are extremely pleased that the dedicated, highly skilled and highly motivated UAW members of Ohio Assembly Plant have been selected to build the next-generation Ford F-650 and F-750," said Jimmy Settles, UAW vice president and director of the National Ford Department.
Jimmy Settles
"We're confident our outstanding work force will build these Ford medium-duty trucks to the highest levels of quality, reliability, dependability and craftsmanship – the factors that matter most to the demanding, hard-working owners of these vehicles."
U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur (OH-9) today praised the decision by Ford, saying "Such an achievement is a glowing testament to the relationship between Ford and the United Auto Workers. Their cooperation ensures that our region will be a force in motor vehicle manufacturing for many years to come."
The Ohio Assembly Plant, celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, currently produces the E-Series of cargo and passenger vans and other commercial vehicles.
Ford said that cargo and passenger van production will end later this year, although cutaway vans and stripped chassis will continue to be built in Ohio throughout decade.
A new Ford Transit will replace the E-series vans and will begin production this spring in Kansas City.

Maybe it's just this season on the edge where every victory is like winning the Stanley Cup and every loss is a Darius Kasparaitis flipper past The Dominator in overtime of the seventh game, but Saturday night's loss was downright discouraging. Why? Because now we have a trend on our hands. In their three-game winless streak, the Sabres have slowly but surely reverted to last season's form.

I had my gal bladder removed several years ago & unfortunately was struck with Pancreatitis about four years ago. After a long recovery period, was able to begin eating somewhat normally, but had to be extremely careful about eating foods with much fat content at all. If I ate a meal or accumulative meals that had more fat than my system could handle (which was unpredicable & changing) I would suffer awful bouts of stomach flu type symptoms & those nasty episodes of genuflecting in front of the toilet. I have found that since carrying a small supply of these Bile Acid Factors with me at all times, I have not suffered even one of these. I tried another manufacturer that was a little less money, but didn't turn out to solve my problem like these do.

After having my gall bladder removed i experienced knee and leg pain due to inflamation. I was not processing essential fatty oils, especially omega 3. This product eased the pain in approximately 3 weeks. You will know when you have taken too much bile acid as you will experience bile acid diahrea. Just cut back the dose

This is by far one of the best enzymes you can take if you're having any problems with digestion, absorption, and assimilation. If you're also experiencing problems with GERD, heart burn, or constipation, again this is the product for you. Most people jump on anti-acids which is the opposite of what you should do. A reduction in enzymes is the cause of most of these problems in the first place. 1000mg of Bovine Bile will fix you right up!
This really works!

Read the other reviews and decided to give this a try. Had my gallbladder out 5 weeks ago and have trouble with anything to fatty or if I eat to much at one time. As long as I take two capsules along with my meal I am fine. I do not take all the time just when I know I have had trouble with a certain food in the past. Helps with the gas, bloating, and fullness feeling.

This stuff works extremely well. I had my gallbladder removed; and for many years since, I had suffered pain, cramping and IBS-like symptoms. All of that stopped as soon as I began using this. Physicians don't seem to understand that gall-bladder removal can actually cause impaired ability to digest fats, which can leads to severe digestive distress. Bile Acid factors really helped me.

Did a liver gallbladder cleanse and could not believe the congestion. I'm slim and eat a healthy diet, but I think the toxins were a "cumulative load" My doctor suggested this supplement to help digest fats and keep bile flowing. Works great. Digestion is better and it shows. Skin looks better and is less dry. Also, I have more energy. Can't go a day without this now. I take with a meal. No stomach bloating or upset. Just feel better! I goofed up my order and herb fixed my mistake and shipped this to me quickly Service here a iherb is nothing short of spectacular!

SA Chamber Proposal: Police, Firefighters Must Accept Health Cuts
The Board of the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce today is debating a strongly worded resolution calling on police and firefighters to accept significant cuts in their health care benefits, 1200 WAOI news reports.
"San Antonio is the only major city in Texas where Uniform City Employees pay no healthcare premiums for dependents or families," the statement says.
The proposed statement calls on uniformed city employees health benefits to 'more closely mirror the premiums, deductibles, and out of pocket expenses of city civilian employees. The city civilian employees receive much more generous health care benefits than do the private sector workers who fund the health programs.
"Currently, public safety accounts for 66.5% of the General fund budget, which exceeds the Texas peer group cities, is too high and will continue to increase if not addressed," the statement says.
The statement goes even further, also calling on the Legislature to 'address the state statute limiting the flexibility to modify the structure of the pension funds for uniformed city employees.' Previously, uniformed employee pensions have not been part of the negotiation process.
The Chamber proposal also calls on the city to 'continue to study pre-funded healthcare for retirees and explore options such as bridge insurance under the Affordable Care Act.'
The Chamber statement recognizes that police officers and firefighters 'put their health at risk while performing their job duties,' but points out that other city workers like public works employees, animal care officers and code compliance officers do the same, and don't have similar cushy health care plans.
In fact, the Bureau of Labor Statistics says fishermen, lumberjacks, and pilots are the most dangerous jobs in America. Police Officers rank the tenth most dangerous, and Firefighters are not even listed among the ten most dangerous jobs in America.
The Chamber statement says the health care benefits enjoyed by uniformed city workers are the envy of the city. In addition to no monthly premiums deducted from their paycheck, there is a $250 annual deductible and an annual maximum out of pocket cost of $600. Even many of the 'gold plans' on the Obamacare exchange called for monthly premiums in excess of $200 per individual, and annual deductibles of $3,000 or more.

The head of collections and exhibitions at Wakefield's Hepworth Gallery gave an illustrated lecture as part of Ilkley Arts Festival last week.
Frances Guy spoke at the lecture hosted by Ilkley Art Club on behalf of the festival.
She spoke about the gallery itself, and the prestigious works and working methods of sculptor Barbara Hepworth.
Reviewer David Walker writes: The lecture included a comprehensive review of the origin of the Wakefield Art Gallery and the subsequent foundation of the Hepworth Gallery in 2011.
The history of Barbara Hepworth as a Wakefield-born artist and her development as a sculptor was addressed in detail, showing her initial influences in the landscape and industrial scene of her home county which remained with her throughout her working life.
Frances described how the artistic evolution from the figurative to the abstract occurred during Hepworth's career. Her work was influenced by 20th-century European avant-garde such as Picasso, Braque and Gabo, in addition to British artists including Henry Moore (her contemporary at Leeds College of Art and the RCA), Epstein, Skeaping and Ben Nicholson. Her marriages to both Skeaping and Nicholson were shown to be symbiotic influences in her development.
It was fascinating to learn how such a diminutive woman could undertake large sculptural projects in a field dominated by men. Little wonder, then, she used collaborators to do some of the "heavy lifting".
The role of the Hepworth Gallery in bringing together drawings, archive material about her working processes, along with preparatory sculptural models and finished work was most interesting. Frances also described some of the architectural principles underlying the design of the gallery, showing examples of the superb exhibition spaces now in use.
It all served to re-inforce the continuing high status of Hepworth as an artist of both national and international import-ance, as illustrated with the examples of the John Lewis project in London and the monumental sculpture outside the United Nations Building in New York.
This excellent lecture gave an illuminating insight into the life and work of a woman who became, and remains, a major figure in the history of 20th century sculpture.

Obama 'Wins' Lie of the Year
(NEWSER) – "If you like your health care plan, you can keep it." Barack Obama has been raked over the coals for that one in recent months, and now he's getting, umm, honored for it: PolitiFact has awarded the phrase its Lie of the Year Award, it announced on CNN last night. The editors' pick was backed up by an online poll that overwhelmingly agreed. It's the fourth year out of five that the top lie has been health care-related (see 2009, 2010, and 2011), and the three runners-up lies this year are all related to conservative attacks on the law.
