Taxes » Tax Deductions » Gifts To Charity Pay Off
When preparing your federal tax return, don't forget to count your gifts to charity. Your giving attitude can do more than make you feel good for helping others. When tax filing time arrives, your gifts also might help you lower your tax bill since they may be deductible donations.
There are many ways to give, the most common being cash donations. In the Internal Revenue Service's dictionary, cash includes not just currency, but also monetary amounts donated by check, credit card and cellphone texts. When you do donate money, be ready to deal with IRS documentation rules.
The one other thing to remember is your philanthropic timing. So your donations will count when you file your return in the spring, make sure your charitable gifts are made by Dec. 31 of the previous year.
If you are 70 ½ or older, you can have money from your individual retirement account sent directly to a charitable organization. Both traditional IRA and Roth account holders can do this, but it generally is more beneficial to traditional IRA account holders because much of the money in these accounts is eventually taxable.
Older traditional IRA owners must take required minimum distributions, or RMDs. With the charity rollover option, they can meet this requirement by having up to $100,000 of their annual RMD go straight to an Internal Revenue Service-qualified charity. That way, they comply with the RMD rule, but the distribution is not counted as taxable income to the IRA owner.
The charity rollover option also might be a good strategy for individuals who face donation limits based on their income. Generally, you cannot donate an amount that exceeds 50 percent of your adjusted gross income. But when the money goes directly to the charity from the IRA, it doesn't count against that limit because it's not included in the filer's gross income.
The one drawback is that such direct gifts are not deductible by the donor. That, however, might not be that much of a disincentive.
Taxpayers must itemize to claim any charitable deductions. But many older taxpayers, like the majority of filers of all ages, choose to claim the standard deduction instead. In fact, many older taxpayers find the standard amounts even more appealing because they are larger for filers 65 or older.
The IRA rollover to charity option gets special treatment for the 2012 tax year. The option technically expired at the end of 2011 and was not renewed until Jan. 1, 2013, as part of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, also known as the "fiscal cliff" tax bill.
Under the new law, taxpayers who took RMDs in December 2012 can donate cash equal to that distribution (again up to the $100,000 limit) to charity between now and Jan. 31. That contribution amount then would not count as taxable income for the 2012 tax year.
Any 2013 IRA contribution of RMD money, however, must be made as a direct transfer between the retirement account and the charity.
Many charities are happy to accept used clothing and household goods, and you're allowed to claim the fair market value of those items as a tax deduction. But to make sure that the value was at least somewhat valuable, a law was enacted in 2006 that requires any donated household goods be in good or better condition. The change was designed to solve two problems.
First, some taxpayers were using charitable organizations as dumping grounds for articles that really should have been put in a garbage can instead of a donation bin.
Secondly, the value of these donors' claims on the raggedy goods was much too high, meaning they got a larger tax break than they should have. This is the same issue lawmakers confronted when they tightened rules a couple of years ago on donated cars.
Now the IRS can deny deductions for items that are deemed of "minimal monetary value." When your total amount of donated articles -- or as the IRS calls them, noncash gifts -- exceeds $500, you have to file with your tax return Form 8283, Noncash Charitable Contributions, detailing your generosity. Taxpayers still can inflate the used property's value on the form, but with the new guidelines and charitable groups' reminders of it, lawmakers are hoping that individuals will follow the new rules. From the enforcement side, don't be surprised to find tax examiners taking closer looks at this form and asking more follow-up questions than usual about deductible donations.

Coordinators Preview Tennessee, Reflect Back on Time at UK
Nov. 20, 2012
LEXINGTON, Ky. – Fresh off its victory over Samford to conclude its 2012 home schedule, the University of Kentucky football team returned to the practice fields for the first time this week to prepare for border-state rival Tennessee. UK practice outside on the Tim Couch Practice Fields for just over two hours Tuesday.
After practice, offensive coordinator Randy Sanders and defensive coordinator Rick Minter took time to talk about the team's upcoming game with Tennessee among other topics.
"They're talented," Sanders said about the Tennessee defense. "They're a talented group. It seems like every game you turn on, you see different guys. So they've got a lot of guys that play. They've got a lot of depth, got talented guys."
Looking back on his seven years at Kentucky, Sanders said he has had a lot of memories both on and off the field. However, Sanders said it is the relationships he has developed off the field that will mean the most to him.
"Other than the friendships I've made, some of the relationships I've made with the coaches, the players and some other people in Lexington, some of the people around the program and some people in the community, there's been some great, great memories of wins," Sanders said about his time at Kentucky. "The win over Louisville, the first time we beat them (2007); Andre's senior year, the win over LSU; the night we played absolutely awful and then came back and beat Arkansas (2008) at the very end with (Mike) Hartline and Randall Cobb and that group. There have been a lot of special memories, but the accomplishments on the field or the things that we've done on the field, the five bowl games, that doesn't compare to the relationships and friendships you made. A hundred years from now, those friendships and the impact you had on people matter a whole lot more than the win-loss record."
One memory Sanders and Co. have had is the team's historic 10-7 victory over Tennessee last season at Commonwealth Stadium, a victory that Sanders said he thought would "take a miracle."
"That obviously has to rank up there," Sanders said about the 2011 game. "The way we had to do it, but then the fact that we hadn't done it in so long. There were a number of years there where I thought, honestly, we probably had a better chance to win than they did, but yet it seemed like there was always something that came up to mess it up and they were able to pull it out in the end. And last year, going into the game, I thought it was going to take a miracle for us to pull it off and the miracle happened. The defense played great, we didn't have any turnovers, the kicking game was really good. I thought we might score twice (with wide receiver Matt Roark having to play quarterback); if we were really, really lucky we might score three times, and hopefully one or two of those would be touchdowns. We were able to get 10 points, score twice, which is about what I thought we had a chance to do."
Sanders' offense showed several different formations on Saturday against Samford, including an increased role for Morgan Newton at H-back. However the two that generated the most buzz was lining up senior offensive guard Larry Warford at fullback and QB Jalen Whitlow throwing a lateral pass to sophomore offensive tackle Darrian Miller. Sanders said putting the two big guys in those positions has opened the floodgates for more linemen wanting some expanded roles.
"Well, they all have," Sanders joked about the offensive linemen wanting to fill ball-carrying positions. "I figured that would be the biggest problem. Darrian (Miller) wanted the ball. Larry (Warford) wanted the ball and I told him, 'I ain't giving you the ball, but I'll let you line up in the backfield.' So we actually lined him up in the backfield about three or four times last week (at fullback), and actually the plays were pretty successful. So Jack (Gruenschlaeger) wants to play back there now. I told him if it wouldn't block out the end-zone camera, we might consider it. But, you know, it's fun. That's a play (the pass to Miller) we've actually carried for a while. I was going to call it about two weeks ago or three weeks ago and it just so happened that when we got the situation to call it, he was hurt, wasn't in the game. So it's one we've carried and had with us, and I figured, 'What the heck? It's a good time to call it.'"
Switching gears to defense, Minter said after practice Tuesday that Tennessee may be the best offensive team that Kentucky has played this season. The Volunteers rank 13th nationally in passing offense this season, averaging 317.6 yards a game and are 23rd in total offense nationally with 477.6 yards per contest.
"They are one of the better offenses that we have faced all year," Minter said. "They score about 37 points a game, they have playmakers in the right places and the quarterback has played great most of the year. Their wide receivers are big-time guys that kind of set the tone for this team. Their offensive line coach is a friend of mine and coached under me at Cincinnati and he has done a great job with them. They play tough, they play hard, they play physical."
Minter said the focus from the players and coaches has not changed in recent weeks in practice as both are working as hard as they have all season, according to Minter. The defensive coordinator said kids bounce back easier than adults.
"Kids are always bounce back, no matter what happens in life," Minter said. "They are much more resilient than adults because they don't think about it too much, they just do it. We will wish them well and pull for them always. Kentucky will always have a special place in your heart because whenever you work somewhere for a while you give it everything you have. Therefore when you leave, you leave some of yourself behind."
As for the future of the program on the defensive side of the ball, Minter said the future is bright with talented underclassmen.
"All the kids on the back end that have played and contributed this year, some in a mighty role, others in a minor role, are all going to be good players," Minter said about the defense. "You just mark it down -- the Blaylocks (Daron and Zack) are going to be good players, the young corners all three of them (Cody Quinn, Fred Tiller, J.D. Harmon) are going to be good players, (Khalid) Henderson is going to be a good player, (Pancho) Thomas is going to be a good player. There are three defensive linemen that you have never seen because they are being redshirted but they are going to be good solid guys, whether it be (Patrick) Graffree, (Thomas) Chapman, (Langston) Newton. There are others, I don't want to be remiss (in not mentioning them), but it is a bright future. How bright, who knows? But it is a much brighter future than it was a few years ago looking down the road of guys finally getting into this program."
Kentucky returns to practice Wednesday morning.

Vice-President Robert Wheeler called the meeting to order at 11:10 a.m. Robert encouraged the membership to visit the Chapter's Web site. The Chapter approved the minutes of the November 1, 2008, meeting.
The Treasurer's Report showed a balance of $3,200.71 as of November 2008, dues collected of $525, for a new balance of $3725.71. With the donation of $500 to the Business Undergraduate Society last April, the November 2009 balance is $3,225.71.
The Chapter approved a $500 contribution to the Business Undergraduate Society for the 2009-2010 school year.
The Business Undergraduate Society is planning a fall 2009 trip to Carthage, Missouri, to visit Leggett and Platt and Butterball. They are also working on a spring trip.
Rachel Mullinax presented the SIFE report. SIFE is sponsoring a SIFE Alumni Reception at Homecoming 2009. Alumni Chapter members were invited to attend. SIFE won at regionals last year and qualified for national competition. They are currently active in many projects. They are working with eighth graders on career choices. SIFE is again doing the fruitcake project. An ethics symposium will be held in the spring of 2010. They are doing an Econo Tour with seventh graders for the second time. This project allows seventh graders to visit with international students from C of O.
Rex Mahlman gave an update on Sigma Beta Delta. He explained Sigma Beta Delta's beginning at College of the Ozarks in November of 2008. The Chapter authorized the purchase of honor cords for our business honor society graduates in the spring of 2009. The Chapter also approved the purchase of honor cords for the Business Department faculty. This was 16 cords (10 students and 6 faculty) at $8 per honor cord, total $128.
Officers for next year will be Robert Wheeler, President, moving up from Vice-President, Cheryl Williams, Vice-President, moving up from Secretary/Treasurer, and Kevin Riley, Secretary/Treasurer, elected at this meeting.
Next year will mark the tenth year of the passing of Mrs. Winfrey. It was suggested that we emphasize this in promoting our meeting next year and that perhaps some targeted giving could accompany this promotion. It was also suggested that this might help attendance at our yearly meeting, as the majority of business alumni had known Mrs. Winfrey. It was decided to think of ideas and work on this idea via email exchange.
The meeting was adjourned at 11:40 a.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Rex Mahlman, Acting Secretary

Anti-Vagina Monologues EventMore Activism Ideas
General conservative groups and traditional values groups would be excellent to hold an Anti-Vagina Monologues event.
The Vagina Monologues, an episodic play by Eve Ensler, vehemently promotes an anti-male worldview, portrays women as perpetual victims, and is unapologetically anti-heterosexual. If this offensive play is being held at your campus, take action! Often this play is funded by your tuition dollars or compulsory Student Activity fees, just another example of the leftist bias on college campuses today.
Stay cordial and keep your language clean at your event. Just because the left lowers itself to using crude and disgusting images doesn't mean you have to. If the left tries to pull a stunt with sexual symbols, stay calm. Record the absurdity, publicize it and thus embarrass them.
For more information about The Vagina Monologues and the agenda it promotes, please visit www.vday.org
The Vagina Monologues is typically held during the week of Valentine's Day (February 14th).
1. Determine when the event is being held. Schedule your protest around these dates.
2. Collect the materials needed for the event. You will need to acquire poster board and other materials for signs, a table, and informational flyers.
3. Reserve space on campus for the event. Contact the Student Activities Office and attempt to reserve the most high-traffic area available.
4. Invite allied organizations. Ask other conservative organizations on campus or in the outside community to contribute to the purchase of supplies or help run the games at your table. This is a great way to strengthen cooperation between different groups in the conservative movement, and to increase attendance and volunteers in the form of members of the other groups.
5. Advertise! Success depends on how well you publicize your event, so you should advertise early and often. This doesn't necessarily mean paid advertising; "earned media" may work even better for you. Click here to learn several important follow-up publicity measures to use before, during, and after the event.
6. Prepare for opposition. Keep a video camera available at all times, and record any aggression – both verbal and physical. If some behaves belligerently, ask why he or she objects to your exercise of your right to free speech.
7. Create a schedule. Have members of your group volunteer as much time as possible to man your informational table and interact with passersby.
8. Protest! Man your table during the time you have allotted for the event. Make sure group members maintain enthusiasm and engage passersby.
9. Advertise! (again) The fact that your event is over does not mean that your public relations work is done. Earned media can be extremely useful to you. Click here to learn several important follow-up publicity measures to do after the event is finished.

LONG BEACH - A 62-year-old man found dead inside a burning East Long Beach home was identified Monday.
Mark Allen Conway died in the blaze, coroner's Lt. Joe Bale said.
The fire was reported at 11:36 p.m. Saturday in the 5400 block of Peabody Street, firefighter Will Nash said.
"It was well-involved when the first unit arrived four minutes later," Nash said.
Conway was found in the living room area, and pronounced dead at the scene, Nash said. It was unclear why the man did not get out of the home, although it was believed he was somewhat disabled. A cat was also found dead in the home, he said.
It appeared the fire started in the kitchen, although the exact cause was under investigation, Nash said.

No one will argue that being a young parent is tough. Being a young penguin father, though, is a different animal altogether. Noted British voice-of-nature David Attenborough lends his considerable reputation to our fine tuxedoed friends in this documentary, which screens every hour at the museum's LeFrak IMAX Theater. Sir David will take viewers to Penguin City on the remote island of South Georgia, which is home to around 6 million penguins in search of some serious breeding. The film follows one particular king penguin as he lives, learns and loves (it's essentially an Elizabeth Gilbert story for large flightless birds). Along the way, he must battle vicious predators, inhospitable weather conditions and—from the looks of the trailer—flatulent seals.

Man Claims Fastest NY-to-LA Drive Ever
(NEWSER) – Ed Bolian says he's done something virtually impossible, highly dangerous, and extraordinarily illegal: Along with a hastily-recruited co-driver and passenger, he drove from New York City to LA in 28 hours and 50 minutes, he tells Doug Demuro of Jalopnik. That means the team traveled an average of 98mph, including 46 minutes of total stop time, USA Today reports, with a top speed of 158mph. If it's true—and Bolian allegedly has 218 pages of GPS tracking data to prove it is—the Oct. 19-20 drive shatters the 2006 record of 31 hours and 4 minutes.

So, you've made the decision to attend Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Firstly: Welcome to the biggest party in America! If this is your first time, we have some important information to share with you which will make your experience better. Here we go, Laissez les bons temps rouler!
1. Comfortable Shoes
While you may be tempted to wear something sexy or stylish – don't. The streets will be packed and dirty. Pick shoes with closed toes that are comfortable for you to walk in for most of the day, because you certainly won't be driving anywhere in New Orleans during Carnival!
2. Claim a Spot near a Restroom
Try to find a place to watch the parades near a bathroom. Whether this is a bar or restaurant where you can keep your cup full (most businesses will want you to purchase something to use their bathroom) or near port-o-potties (if you're brave – or broke!) make sure you have access to this essential element, without having to walk a half mile away.

There are plenty of ettercap tutorials that forum members have contributed,do a search for them
I made a rogue access point, mostly to share the connection on my ipod, but I was wondering if ettercap can sniff some of the stuff my ipod does. Anyways the shared connection is really slow, but on windows using ICS its much faster. I need some insight on making the connection just as fast as in windows. I mean cmon this is linux should be better...
Heres the script I used (altered for my needs)
Bash | #!/bin/bash echo -n "Enter th - AutomaticAP.sh - kn0baGR3 - Pastebin.com
Heres the dhcpcd.conf (alittle altered too)
Bash | option domain-name-servers 10. - Dhcpd.conf - pJNNgemH - Pastebin.com
There are plenty of ettercap tutorials that forum members have contributed,do a search for them
try my tutorial: http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forum...-sniffing.html
that script of yours is no good (with BT4final), I know because I also tried to use it before.

I tried your tutorial exactly can't load google
the error is on your part since people have reported my tutorial works great for them.
anyway, I recommend buying a real router since it's for your ipod, a fake ap will work aswell, but seems kinda strange and annoying to always have to setup a fake ap just to get your ipod online.
grtz, .L
Well it's works now but it's still slow both on my iPod and on another computer. It works fine on windows with ics but just not with airbase on Linux. I'm guessing this is an issue with airbase and leave at that. Is there any other fake access point software?
you need to do this
That was in that sslstip part. you need to allow ipforward to use that.Code:echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
Does you get ip, can you ping. Does your wirless card support injection, have you set that gateway correctly, edited those commands (wlan0, eth0 to right one)
I use that guide, and it works well.
Do every point, do not stop at the middle.
I did do that. Still slow? Any ideas? I know it's not the hardware. It works fine with ics.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS Designed to grow with your child. The included clear cover can also serve as an easy to hold cup. Twist on the solid cap (sold separately) and use your bottles for storing juice or snacks. Perfect for a lunchbox or traveling Bright colored silicone sleeve (patent pending) helps to protect the bottle from breakage and provides a great gripping surface and tactile experience during feeding Bottle and sleeve can be boiled or put in the dishwasher together. Can also go in the freezer, making breast milk storage simple Bisphenol-A (BPA), phthalate, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) free Silicone sleeve is non-toxic and free of plastic Silicone nipple is non-toxic and latex-free Plastic ring, plug and cap are FDA approved Made from borosilicate glass and therefore are thermal shock resistant allowing them to go from freezer to boiling water Why is glass a better choice for baby bottles? Glass is clearly a better choice for baby bottles. Plastic bottles can leach chemicals into milk or juice (including BPA); glass does not. Plastic bottles can scratch, and scratches can harbor bacteria—glass does not. And plastic bottles typically end up in landfills when their useful life is over; glass is recyclable and reusable, and is better for the environment. Most parents like the idea of using glass but worry about breakage. Lifefactory offers a solution by combining a sturdy glass bottle with a custom-designed silicone sleeve to protect the glass from breaking.Your new baby bottles say they are "thermal shock resistant". What does this mean? Lifefactory is proud to bring one of the first borosilicate glass baby bottles to the American market. Borosilicate glass is pharmaceutical-grade glass that is more expensive, purer, and higher quality than other glass baby bottles that are made with soda lime. Thermal shock resistant means the glass is stronger and can withstand extreme temperature changes (from boiling to freezing) without breaking. Soda lime bottles do not have this quality. For mothers who pump and store breast milk, Lifefactory bottles can go from freezer to refrigerator to hot water for feeding all in one step.What safety certifications does Lifefactory baby bottles have? At Lifefactory, they are very concerned about infant safety. Lifefactory has voluntarily had their bottles tested for safety and integrity by an independent third party lab, Bureau Veritas. The bottles are in compliance with the requirements of CPSIA 2008 and 16 CFR 1500 in the United States. The bottles are EN 14350 compliant in Europe.Why are Lifefactory baby bottles more expensive than some other glass baby bottles on the market? It's true that Lifefactory baby bottles are somewhat more expensive than some products, but we believe the combination of safety, quality, and design makes them an excellent value. Consider our materials: Borosilicate glass costs more but makes our baby bottles stronger and thermal shock resistant. The silicone sleeve (the hallmark of our bottles, which gives them their distinctive look, improves their "gripability," and helps prevent breakage) is much more expensive to manufacture than plastic—particularly the thick, high-grade silicone that we employ. Additionally, Lifefactory uses top-quality, FDA-approved plastic for their caps and rings, and our French nipples are medical grade silicone; both of these factors affect product pricing. A final contributor to the price of Lifefactory bottles is their commitment to rigorous product testing, which ensures safety, durability, and minimal environmental impact.How do I wash/sterilize the bottle and its parts? Boil or run the bottle through the dishwasher initially to sterilize. All parts are dishwasher-safe, or they can be hand-washed. The bottle and sleeve may be boiled together. You don't need to remove the sleeve to wash the bottle, but if you wish to remove the sleeve, it comes off best in warm, soapy water. Nipples should be washed on the top rack of the dishwasher only.Do Lifefactory bottles have a venting system? Yes, Lifefactory bottles have a traditional venting system, in which ridges are located on the flange of the nipple. Tightening the ring too much will prevent ventilation and may cause nipple collapse.What kind of nipple is on Lifefactory bottles? Lifefactory nipples are made of silicone produced in France, where our manufacturer is that country's leading supplier of nipples. The nipples that come with our 4 oz. bottles are Stage 1 (0-3 months), and those that come with our 9 oz. bottles are Stage 2 (3-6 months).Will other nipples fit this bottle? Yes, any standard size nipple will fit on our bottle. Wide neck nipples will not fit.Your nipples are not marked according to Stage. How do I tell them apart? The difference between the various nipples is flow rate, which is determined by the size of the opening. As it is difficult to distinguish the hole size on a nipple by simply looking at it, Lifefactory recommends washing the nipples separately according to Stage, or not opening new nipple packages until the nipple Stage that it contains is appropriate for use. Lifefactory nipples are not labeled according to Stage for manufacturer-related reasons.Where are Lifefactory bottles made?Lifefactory beverage and baby bottles are custom made in France. Beverage bottle silicone sleeves are made in the United States, and polypropylene plastic caps are made in Poland. Baby bottle sleeves and plastic parts are made to meet Lifefactory's exacting standards in China, supervised by a reputable agency from Singapore. All components are FDA-approved and are compliant with US, Canadian, and European safety standards. The glass and plastic parts are recyclable, and the silicone can be sent back to us where it can be re-ground to make outdoor playground mats or mats for barn animals.Why do Lifefactory bottles have a silicone sleeve?Lifefactory's patent-pending silicone sleeves were designed not only to look stylish but also to protect the bottles and help prevent them from breaking. The material and design combine to improve the bottle's tactile quality and grip, which prevents bottles from becoming slick with condensation (or sweat, for athletes) and reduces the potential for breakage.What are the sleeves on Lifefactory bottles made of?Lifefactory's sleeves are made of silicone, which is non-toxic and has been strength-tested for durability. Silicone is made from silica, the most common constituent of sand. It is a great alternative to plastics, which can leach chemicals, and to rubber or latex, which some people are allergic to.Does Lifefactory sell its sleeves separately? Do the sleeves fit on other bottles?A Lifefactory bottle is the combination of a glass bottle and complementary silicone sleeve designed in tandem. Lifefactory only sells the complete package because that's the only way to ensure the sleeve fits perfectly—plus it's the only way Lifefactory could attain their exceptional standards of quality. That's why they don't sell sleeves separately. They could never be sure that they would fit other bottles precisely.How do I wash the bottle?All components of every Lifefactory bottle—the glass bottle itself as well as the sleeve and cap (or nipple)—are dishwasher safe or can be hand washed.Can I put boiling water in my beverage bottle to make tea? Can I put the beverage bottle filled with water in the freezer?Lifefactory beverage bottles are made from soda lime glass. This is the same container glass used for wine bottles and other food storage containers. It is strong but not impervious to rapid temperature changes or impact. Like any bottle, it will expand and crack if left in the freezer or hit with boiling water. Lifefactory baby bottles are made from borosilicate glass. Borosilicate glass is known for its superior durability, chemical and heat resistance, and is excellent for use in chemical laboratory equipment and cookware. This allows the baby bottle to go from the freezer to boiling water pot without incident. Do you need to take the sleeve off to wash a Lifefactory bottle?No, you can leave the sleeve on the bottle and wash the whole thing in the dishwasher. If you wish to remove the sleeve, it comes off best in warm, soapy water. SAFEAt Lifefactory, safety is their #1 concern. All Lifefactory products go through rigorous testing and score well above the industry standard for chemical content and durability. Lifefactory bottles and accessories are free of known harmful chemicals including bisphenol-A (BPA), phthalates, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). All components are FDA approved and made with medical grade silicone. Lifefactory is EN 71, EN 14350, and CPSIA (HR 4040) compliant.SIMPLELifefactory's sleek modern designs give Lifefactory products a sophisticated look that appeals to everyone. All products are easy to clean and are dishwasher safe.SMARTLifefactory's long-term future is determined by how they treat the earth now. Lifefactory uses glass and silica- low impact raw materials. Lifefactory keeps their packaging to a minimum to leave less of a footprint on our precious earth. Lifefactory is proud to be recognized as a Bay Area Green Business.

"The Saul fight was exactly what I needed," explained Walsh. "I went looking for that fight straight after the disappointing loss to Artem. I dominated against Artem, but he did a great job staying in the fight and capitalised when he got the chance.

Get Out of That List Quickly
If you're like me, you don't really mind the automatic numbering and bulleting MS Word does with lists.
You know, when Word realizes you're creating a list and it helps you along with the same continued formatting.
But, after working with many different people, I have found that some folks just don't seem to know how to get out of the list. That is, they aren't sure how to put an end to the numbering that takes place every time they hit the Enter key.
There are many ways, but the way I like the best (and doesn't require my hands to leave the keyboard) is to use the Backspace key.
Yep, that's right. One quick stab at the Backspace key removes the number and another will remove the tab indent that occurred when the numbering started.
Once you've got the numbering stopped, you're free to use the Enter key as usual.
No more numbers. Well, that is, no more numbers until Word catches you making another list!
~ April

Post subject: Cache of the Month Nominees-October 2008
The nominees for Cache of the Month in October of 2008 are
GC1FN8W: Dead Mans Cache
RudeRat Crew
Nominated by
This is definitely a cache that hard core cachers will like, as well as families out for some fun. Clearly A LOT of time was put into creating this cache. All three stages offer different types of hides and fun. The pirate theme was carried throughout the cache page, all three stages and their fun containers. There was a unique way to give the stage one finder the way to the final stages.
Also nominated by
I nominate this cache for cache of the month because it was a kid friendly and defiantly inspired teamwork among finders. As with many of the RudeRats caches, they are creative in all aspect beginning with the cache page and ends when you find the X marking the spot. This one took the cake. It is specifically designed that the youngsters would not be disappointed.
GCQ6D4: Cliff Hanger
Nominated by
Momandson2006 and I recently traveled to Duluth to complete our 1000th find together. We wanted a very challenging cache that was out of the ordinary. After looking at several caches in the state and a few in Canada we settled on this one because we felt it would give us a memorable experience to commemorate our milestone. So we took Eskoclimber up on his standing offer to take anyone at any time on an adventure of a lifetime.
After experiencing this cache with several geocachers from the area we were not disappointed. I came away from the experience more excited about geocaching than ever before, it was the real deal. I would have to call Eskos cache the complete geocaching experience, a package deal. He supplies all of the technical equipment, a very knowledgeable guide, lots of humor, and beautiful scenery. If you want to live to talk about it, all you have to do is follow instructions, but what really stands out is the opportunity to face your fears and overcome them in a safe environment. The caching experience is set up in such a way that anyone who attempts the cache is capable of being successful. You end up finding not only the container but an extra measure of self-worth.
What has always drawn me to geocaching as a whole is the premise that it has something to offer for everyone and this cache does a better job than most. If you like to hike, climb, socialize, or just sit and knit then Cliff Hanger is for you. It can be as easy as you like or as demanding as you can take. In fact, it is my belief that GCQ6D4 can meet the needs of any geocacher looking for excitement and adventure or rest and relaxation. I would even go as far as to promise, for some it will even be a spiritual experience. Yes, it has it all, just like a good movie that you want to go and experience again and again and again
GC1C5FQ: Cache With A View
Nominated by
There is a uniqueness to this cache that I haven't experienced before. It is both difficult and easy in a way that is difficult to explain. Only those four of us who've found it can probably identify with this.
It starts with simply trying to find the area. I've been to the area before, but for first-timers, getting to the correct parking lot might be a challenge. And there are two unique hiking trails in the area. lizs does a good job of planting a separate cache to help cachers get on to the correct trail. And from there, the hike is quite easyl; taking you through beautiful wooded land and alongside a farmers field, currently planted with corn.
But as you get close to the cache, the terrain changes, becoming rocky and sun-exposed, perfect for the rattlesnakes that have been reported in the area. A new element is added to the cache hunt. Maintaining an eye out for predators!
About 100' from GZ, the path seems to disappear. Do you need to bushwack? A fierce cliffside (possibly with dangerous snakes) or a strong thicket are your choices.
All in all, as I left the cache, I realized that I was sweating, but not necessarily from the hike or climb itself, but from the total environment of the cache. The walk itself was easy. It was the total package. A nice, long-ish walk with a challenge.
GC1F6ZX: A Hobbits Trail: The Lair of Smaug
Nominated by
I would like to take a crack at that nominating a cache in Winona again, only now its called "A Hobbits Trail: The Lair of Smaug. Annakido has put a lot of work and thought into this one, which is now a 2 Phase Multi. Phase 1 is where the old Kitchen Cove used to be (so you still get to see the Kitchen Cove) only the container has changed. Phase 2 will lead you a little ways down the trail to "the lair". Check it out. Get there before the snow flies though, as the trails on the bluffs of Winona can get quite precarious. Watch for those muggles as well; those college kids even like this climb and area.
The vote will not start until October 25th to allow everyone time to find the nominated caches that wish to do so. Also, please feel free to post reviews or thoughts on the nominated caches in this thread if you have found them.

Scientists from forty countries to calibrate magnetic instruments in Colorado foothills
For the first time in the U.S., the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (IAGA) will conduct a workshop on magnetic observatories and the use of geomagnetic data June 9-18, 2008 in Boulder and Golden, Colo. Approximately 150 scientists from 40 different countries will participate. The U.S. Geological Survey, the Colorado School of Mines, and IAGA will host the event.
The workshop will include presentations and discussions about how magnetic data are used for scientific research and practical application. An additional and unusual aspect of the workshop will be a week-long instrument session where careful measurements are made of the Earth's magnetic field at the USGS Magnetic Observatory in Boulder. This will ensure that agencies around the world are able to produce calibrated geomagnetic data useful for studying and mapping the Earth's magnetic field, and for reducing problems caused by geomagnetic field variations that affect power grids, radio communication, navigation systems, and satellite operations.
When: Wednesday, June 11, 2008, 9 – 11 a.m.
Where: USGS Magnetic Observatory, Boulder, Colo., 8600 N. 39th St. http://maps.google.com/maps?q=+8600+N+39th+St,+Longmont,+co&ie=UTF8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&safe=active&ll=40.102761,-105.2631&spn=0.181722,0.300751&z=12&iwloc=addr
Why: The study of the Earth's magnetic field is important so that the impact of magnetic storms can be minimized.

Having failed to convince Hugh Laurie to come play another guy with an attitude and a bum leg on NBC's Crossbones, the network has landed another, arguably even bigger casting coup. John Malkovich has been confirmed to join the drama from Luther creator Neil Cross, starring as the pirate Blackbeard, who terrorized the 18th-century high seas with a fearsome mix of witheringly arch sarcasm and unusual articulation. TV Line notes that it's the first regular U.S. series role for Malkovich—except those years he spent playing the original Becky on Roseanne, obviously.
