SAINT LEO, Fla. – There was no post-Thanksgiving slump for the Saint Leo men's basketball team as the visiting Trinity (Fla.) Tigers ran into a Lions' buzzsaw that saw the Green and Gold dish out a 118-50 defeat on Saturday afternoon from the Bowman Center.
"I was pleased with the way our guys approached it in a business sense," Head Coach Lance Randall said. "Every possession we took very seriously (and) I like the way we competed. I thought we got better on the offensive side as the game went on, we got better on the defensive side and that's the only way you're going to get something other than a win out of a game like that."
It was a contest where the Lions opened up a double-figure margin just five minutes into the game and six Lions finished in double-digit scoring. It turned out to be a scoring explosion that took Saint Leo into territory it hasn't trekked into in over 27 years. The 118 points recorded were the most points the Lions scored in a win since their 125-84 victory over Palm Beach Atlantic on November 20, 1984. The last time the Lions surpassed the 118 point barrier in any game was a 143-125 loss to Stetson in November of 1991. It also marked the first time the Lions surpassed the century mark since a 104-71 victory over UPR-Bayamon on November 17, 2007.
Junior Trent Thomas pushed his season's scoring average to 14.5 points per game with a 19 point effort on 6-of-9 shooting. He was a perfect 2-for-2 from 3-point range and 5-for-5 from the free throw line. A lone point behind him was junior Tom Neary as the Brookfield, Wisc. native went 8-for-10 with 18 points scored. The four others who reached double-figures included Derik Hawkey (16), Taylor Bassett (15), Spenser Mitchell (12) and Cale Girten (10).
Mitchell also came off the bench to surprisingly dominate the boards with 10 rebounds.
As a team the Lions connected on 64 percent (47-of-74) of their shots from the field and 67 percent (12-of-18) of their 3-point attempts. The Lions tallied 60 points from bench personnel and outscored Trinity 24-2 on second chance points.
Rasheed Hall came off the bench to score 13 points to lead the visitors from New Port Richey, Fla.
The Lions now have a full week of practice before welcoming Valdosta State University into the Bowman Center next Saturday, December 3. In their second meeting of the season, the Lions and Blazers are scheduled to tip off at 4:30 p.m. For the latest news, information, and updates on Lions Men's Basketball and all other Saint Leo Athletics, visit SaintLeoLions.com.

FIVE members of the Comancheros have been gunned down in three days as conflict within the bikie gang spirals into a bloodbath.
Police assured the public the gun violence was targeted and contained after another shooting on Wednesday morning.
A 28-year-old Comanchero associate was shot four times in the stomach on a Rhodes street before stumbling nearly 500 metres and collapsing outside a construction site near the Rhodes shopping centre.
Residents heard him scream for help at least 10 times just before 5am. Police found him suffering severe blood loss after leaving a long trail of blood that ran by the Rhodes train station.
The man had surgery on Wednesday night and was in a critical condition in Westmead Hospital. His injuries were not believed to be life threatening.
Several Comancheros are known to live at Rhodes. Two were arrested in raids in 2011.
The acting director of the Organised Crime squad, Detective Acting Chief Superintendent Arthur Katsogiannis, said police were examining links to a triple shooting at a wedding in Canley Vale on Monday
A 23-year-old father, Faalau Pisu, was killed and two other men in their 20s, all members of the gang, were injured at a wedding attended by at least two dozen Comancheros. The bride's father was a senior member, according to Serbian press.
Chief Superintendent Katsogiannis said both incidents were likely to be a result of internal battles at the gang.
''We are not looking at open gang warfare,'' he said. ''We believe it's a contained conflict.''
He said police had ''no doubt'' there were people that had a specific and detailed knowledge of both shootings but investigators were receiving only ''snippets'' of information.
The latest round of gun violence came as police arrested more than 330 Rebels motorcycle gang members in a nationwide crackdown.
The Attero National Taskforce was formed in February to break the illegal bikie gang.
The Rebels were targeted first because they have the largest outlaw motorcycle gang in Australia with almost 2000 members. Investigators said others would be targeted.
The intervention and prevention director of the Australian Crime Commission, Paul Jevtovic, said the Rebels had penetrated legitimate industries, which they used to commit crimes.
''We're about breaking the business model of organised crime,'' Mr Jevtovic said of the taskforce, which is a historic collaboration between 14 national agencies. ''It is about hardening the environment so they can't continue to generate profits.''
Since February, law enforcement agents have laid more than 500 charges against members of bikie gangs, relating to violence, stalking, kidnapping, assault, drug offences and weapons offences.

Central scores sweep in spring tennis opener
WAVERLY—Behind a comeback tiebreaker win from Collin Schares (sophomore, Johnston), the Central College men's tennis team rolled up a season-opening 9-0 victory over Edgewood College (Wis.) Sunday.
Schares lost an opening-set lead but rebounded for a 7-6 second-set win before capturing the No. 3 singles match with a 10-8 decision in the tiebreaker.
"Collin was able to hang on, change the momentum and grind that match out," coach Steve Tyler said. "It showed good mental toughness on his part and that's what we need to do—win the close ones. We didn't need the win today to get the team victory, but it'll definitely help later in the season."
Tim Kahl (sophomore, Grinnell) snared a 6-0, 6-0 sweep at No. 4 while Zane Hendricks (junior, Fort Dodge) gained a 6-0, 6-1 win at No. 5. At the top of the lineup, Kyle Freischlag (junior, Downers Grove, Ill., Downers Grove South HS) won 6-0, 6-2 at No. 1 while West Adelman (freshman, Geneva, Ill.) took a 6-0, 6-3 victory at No. 2. Pat Daly (senior, Shawnee, Kan., Shawnee Mission NW HS) won by forfeit at No. 6.
"Everybody played hot, up and down the lineup," Tyler said. "It was a nice way to start the spring season."
In doubles action, Freischlag and Adelman paired for an 8-0 shutout at No. 1 and Kahl and John Seier (junior, Waverly, Neb.) teamed for an 8-4 win at No. 2. Hendricks and Josh Forst (sophomore, Woodridge, Ill., Downers Grove South HS) won by default at No. 3.
Central (1-0 spring, 3-0 overall) makes a home appearance next Saturday, meeting Morningside College at 9 a.m. before facing Knox College (Ill.) at 3:30 p.m at H.S. Kuyper Fieldhouse.

Buoyant after a successful tournament run on clay in recent weeks, Rafa Nadal knows he will face the toughest test of his injury comeback at the BNP Paribas Open starting on Thursday.
Following a shock second-round exit at Wimbledon last year, the Spanish left-hander was sidelined for seven months by a left knee injury and he now returns to the hard courts of Indian Wells, a surface where his all-action, fist-pumping game has always been most vulnerable.
"I am just here to try my best," world number five Nadal told reporters after practising on one of the outside courts at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden. "We will see how the knee answers on hard.
"It seems that the results on clay were positive, especially because the knee was feeling better and better every week, especially the last week. Now I am going to try here on hard."
Nadal returned to the ATP circuit last month in South America where he competed in three relatively minor claycourt events, winning two of them after reaching all three finals.
He was especially pleased with his performance at the Mexican Open in Acapulco where he clinched the title after sweeping aside three-times defending champion David Ferrer 6-0 6-2 in little over an hour on Sunday.
"I played much, much, much better than what I thought and in Acapulco I played a fantastic tournament," Nadal smiled.
"And in the final at Acapulco, forget about if I was seven months away from tennis, I played much, much better than a lot of finals when I am competing at 100 percent. I played one of my best matches probably ever on clay in the final."
Asked how his troublesome knee was feeling as he prepared for the elite ATP Masters 1000 event at Indian Wells, Nadal replied: "I have good days and I have bad days during all the claycourt season.
"The important thing for me today is that most of the days I have changed the dynamic and I have much more good days than bad days. That's a positive thing.
"The only negative thing on clay when I have a bad day is your movements are easier than here (on a hardcourt surface)."
A left knee injury forced Nadal to pull out of the semi-finals in Miami last March - and began a chain of events that meant he would not play on hard courts again for a whole year.
Though he went on to win an 11th grand slam title at the French Open last June, his season came to an abrupt end two weeks later following a defeat to Czech journeyman Lukas Rosol.
Nadal ended up missing the U.S. Open and January's Australian Open but he said his biggest disappointment was having to skip the Olympic Games staged in London.
"That was the hardest," he added. "When I had to take the decision, I take it. I didn't have no choice. I couldn't move.
"That was a sad moment for me because these kinds of opportunities are not forever. Maybe it's only one time in life and I lost that opportunity. But I can always be positive, keep working and try to be in Rio in 2016."
Asked if he had ever considered quitting the sport during his seven months on the sidelines, Nadal replied: "I never thought about that.
"It was just a long time and sometimes it is hard when you practise every day in the gym, when you work a lot on the recovery and it's not an injury that you know exactly when you are going to come back.
"It's an injury that you look every day how the feeling improves or gets worse and sometimes it's frustration when you feel that every day you test yourself and feel that you are not improving. But I never felt about that (quitting)."
During his hiatus, Nadal said he enjoyed spending more time with his family and friends in Mallorca while also playing plenty of golf and going fishing, and could envision a life outside tennis.
"I can live without tennis," he added. "But when you cannot do what you want to do it is not easy. I am a competitor and I know this world is not forever, the tennis career.
"I really enjoy being a tennis player and I feel very lucky to have the chance to work in one of my hobbies. But life is a lot of things and sometimes much more important other things than the tennis."

Many of today's devices run on the 4G network. Unfortunately, 4G coverage is often spotty, and using it can quickly drain your phone's battery and put you over your monthly data allowance. You might want to use the 4G network only in a well-covered area, or switch to 3G when you're running low on power. Android makes it easy to do this. To switch networks, simply go to Settings > Mobile networks > Network mode and set your phone to CDMA only (3G) or LTE/CDMA (4G). These settings might vary depending on your location and which network you're on.

Last week, officials with the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services announced the possible link between diarrheal illnesses and locally-produced raw dairy products in the northwestern part of the state.
One person has been confirmed with E. coli O103, while others are suspected to be sickened by Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC).
The Food Poisoning Bulletin reports that the outbreak has now sickened 7 in the state, including two toddlers who have developed hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). Read more here.
According to the Missouri Department of Agriculture, Homestead Creamery of Jamesport, Mo., is voluntarily withdrawing its Flory's Favorite cheese from the market place. The affected packages are marked with "Packed on 210" on the label and approximately 250 pounds of the product is included with the recall.
It may have been sold at several major retailers in the area, including local HyVee grocery stores in Liberty, Mo. and Trenton, Mo.
Homestead Creamery's plant license has also been temporarily suspended pending results of the ongoing investigation. Consumers who have purchased the cheese may return the unused portion to the store from where it was originally purchased. Click here to read more from the Missouri Department of Agriculture.
Officials are urging anyone with signs and/or symptoms of STEC to seek medical care. Symptoms include severe stomach cramps, bloody diarrhea and vomiting. If a fever is present, it is not usually very high.
While symptoms improve in most patients within five to seven days, some patients – primarily children – can develop HUS. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, HUS "is the most common cause of sudden, short-term-acute-kidney failure in children."

In 2012, a raw milk-related outbreak in Oregon sent several children to the hospital, including a two-year-old who developed HUS. Her mother spoke to Oregon Public Broadcasting, describing the ordeal her daughter had to endure. Click here to read the story and listen to the broadcast.

It is Winter Formal time, and clever and creative invitations are the talk of the high school campuses. Banners, locker decorations, even surfboards, apps and goldfish bowls are being used to creatively invite and respond to dance invitations.
It is also Science Season, as schools prepare for science nights at their respective schools and upcoming competitions.
The Winter Formal Court was crowned at a school assembly in preparation for the annual dance, which took place on Saturday. Court members are Brenda Martinez, Alyssa Canuso, Marisa Doran, Stephanie Lee, Deepa Shaw, Rachael Van Skike, Sam Shackelford, Nick Ko, Nick Vega, Andrew Billiter, Parker Kjellin-Elder and Casey Hershfield. At the dance, Doran was crowned queen, and Vega was king.
History came alive for the sixth-grade students who participated in a Walk Through the Ancient World on campus. The students donned costumes reflecting the time period, and enjoyed games, food and cultural activities of those times.
El Rancho recently held two important programs: a teens and technology safety presentation for parents and a career day for students.
The Orange County Sheriff's Department Juvenile Services focused on the dangers of social media, the Internet and cell phones in a presentation to a group of about 180 parents. They advised that Assembly Bill 746 added "a post on a social network Internet website" to the definition of "bullying," and provided a listing of "red flags" to look for regarding your teen's use of electronic devices.
Students had the opportunity to learn about and ask questions of professionals in a variety of careers during their career day. More than 25 career fields were represented, including internal medicine and cardiology, funeral director, attorney, police officer, professional musician, animator, financial analysis and court reporter.
The foundation is best known for its Foundation Games, an annual track and field event for Orange Unified-area students that serves as the jumping block for participation in district and state meets. The meet will be held April 13. Participation in the games has increased every year since its inception in 2004, growing from an initial 600 students to 1,800.
The games require a cadre of volunteers, many of whom begin at 6 a.m. and go home after 10 p.m. Some 400 volunteers keep the events moving, the participants in the correct place and even, one year, held onto tent posts to keep the tents from flying away in gusty winds. The safety of the students is the primary concern, and the police and fire officials and volunteers make certain the students stay hydrated and are released only to the appropriate parents or guardians. Free water – approximately 200 gallons – is supplied to the participants, and two golf carts constantly circulate, dispensing water to the athletes. To date, there have been no injuries.
The games also require funding, as participation is free for all students. The foundation primarily relies on sponsors and private donations to support their community programs. It was originally founded in 2002 as an offshoot of the city's Parks and Recreation Division to raise awareness and funds for the Grijalva Gym. In 2003, the foundation became a separate entity, with the intention of providing more programs for the community. It succeeded in raising $600,000 for renovations of the Fred Kelly field.
The foundation has 25 active board members who share a passion for the Orange community and its children. They are seeking individual donors, business sponsors and in-kind contributions so that they may continue and grow the Foundation Games and additional community programs. Helping with fundraising will be the group's gala – A Walk Through Orange: Black and White and Orange All Over. The gala will also honor past Orange Mayor Carolyn Cavecche. It will be held March 1 at the Sandu Conference Center at Chapman University.
For gala information or table sponsorships, or for more information about the many community programs, contact Susie Cunningham, executive director of the Community Foundation of Orange at 714-288-9909, or see community foundationoforange.org Email Cunningham at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Students in the MESA (Math, Engineering, Science Achievement Program) at McPherson are playing with eggs, mousetraps and straws. They are under the watchful eye of teacher Judy Denenny and helpful parent volunteers, preparing for serious competition in the district MESA meet, to be held at UCI on March 9.
They will utilize their knowledge of drag, tension and velocity, as their racecar, powered by a mousetrap, tries to travel the longest distance and not deviate from a narrow path. Or, in the Stick Together competition, the proper strength-to-weight ratio must be achieved for their popsicle stick bridge to hold the most weight. The EggXpress event requires that a container be designed so the most raw eggs inside survive the impact after being dropped to the ground. Other competitions include Balsawood Glider, Prosthetic Arm and Human Eye.
Denenny, recently selected as one of McPherson's top Teachers of the Year, has been coaching the teams during and after school hours. A former architect, Denenny determined that she preferred "building students" as opposed to buildings. She has been teaching for 23 years, and has found that "students that are engaged in science activities read more."

I am full of tragic mistakes. I've lived the better part of my life making some of the worst decisions known to man. I'm pretty much recording the highlights here. But the great thing about being young and stupid is that I'm not done creating new stories. It's fun recounting the dumb shit I did in high school and college and grad school and the states I've lived in since then, but sometimes it's also fun to recount the unbelievable situations I'm getting myself into this minute.
I live in a sparsely populated neighborhood adjacent to the vineyard I work at. There are a few other houses near the vineyard, but I'm the only one that lives and works there. But the people I've met there are really great. I get along with them and likewise, they get along with me. We'll hang out on the weekends and typically drink more than adults should, but what the hell, we live at a vineyard.
As I've met more people in the neighborhood, there are some that I've become good friends with and some that seem to like the fact that they live far from people and don't want to get to know me. The few friends I have in the neighborhood, I hang out with on occasion, either having bonfires, going to concerts, or just getting together for drinks from time to time.
About a year ago, I met this girl, The Neighbor, who is a few years younger than me who lives about 5 houses and a half a mile from my house. She was next door and I ran in to her while she was outside. Introductions were made and that was it. I had been dating a girl for about 2 years at the time who we'll call The Genius. And The Neighbor had a boyfriend of maybe 2 and a half years. She was smoking hot, but then so was my girlfriend, so there wasn't much to think about. But I'd see her from time to time and we'd talk more and more, getting to know each other better. Somehow, every time I ran into her, my girlfriend and her boyfriend were both doing something else, so we always ended up talking one on one.

The No. 2 responds
Gen. John Paxton, the Maine Corps' assistant commandant, posted the following remarks on the Marine Corps's official Facebook page on Feb. 12 concerning Marine Corps Times' relocation with the service's exchange stores:
"As we wind down 13 years of war and prepare for the conflicts to come, we are engaged in a wide-ranging effort to rededicate ourselves to who we are and what we do ... specifically with a renewed focus on the moral, intellectual, physical and ethical fundamentals of our profession of arms.
The emerging reorganization of Marine Corps Exchange and Marine Mart merchandise is but one element of our broader Reawakening Campaign. The intent is to provide ready access to professional military literature and healthy food and beverage choices."
Reaction to the Marine Corps Times' relocation demonstrated a clear misunderstanding of intent; therefore, the product will return to its original location pending the outcome and communication of a more comprehensive, purposeful plan based on our Commandant's intent as it relates to an emphasis on professionalism within our Corps.
Our Reawakening Campaign is too important to have it diminished, or us distracted, by confusion associated with motive or false assumptions. Shelf space will likely be required at some point to make room for healthier food and beverage choices, as well as military literature from the Commandant's Reading List, Marine Corps University, Marine Total Fitness program and the like."
Gen. Jim Amos himself, commandant of the Marine Corps, ordered the independent newspaper Marine Corps Times be returned to its prominent location in exchange stores amid growing media attention to its sudden move to an area where it was less visible, said a team of public affairs officers during a Feb. 14 interview.
The telephone interview with Military Times reporter Lance Bacon was conducted in the wake of growing attention to whether the paper was moved from checkout areas to the back of the store because of sometimes critical coverage of Amos and senior leadership. The public affairs officers said that was not the case; that the move was made to "professionalize" the fronts of the stores, including healthier snack choices for Marines and selections from the reading lists of Amos and his wife, Bonnie.
The move attracted strong criticism from media outlets and many Marines; it also received support by some troops and spouses and even Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer. But the public affairs officers conceded the move should not have been made before the results of a comprehensive study on how to best reorganize the stores.
Marine Corps Times questioned its abrupt relocation in a story published Feb. 9, after several weeks of getting only partial, and inconsistent, answers on why the move was made without notice late last year. Gen. John Paxton Jr., assistant commandant of the Marine Corps, said in a statement announcing the paper was being returned to its previous location that there had been "a clear misunderstanding of intent."
Bacon asked whose misunderstanding that meant, who ordered the paper be relocated in the first place and more. Some responses were provided in an email prior to the interview. The question-and-answer feature that follows was edited for clarity and length. The public affairs officers who participated were colonels Sean Gibson and Chris Hughes; and majors John Caldwell and Shawn Haney.
Bacon: When will Marine Corps Times be returned to its previous location?
Haney: The deputy commandant for Manpower & Reserve Affairs has directed Semper Fit and Exchange Services Division to ensure there is an immediate return of the transferred publications to their original positions.
Bacon: Gen. Paxton stated that the Marine Corps' intent "is to provide ready access to professional military literature and healthy food and beverage choices." Is that to say Marine Corps Times is not considered professional literature as compared to, say, Men's Health or Us Weekly magazine?
Haney: The directive specifically addressed the movement of for-sale newsprint publications. Other publications continued to be displayed according to the contractual agreements in place with those publications.
Bacon: Were any other publications or items — candy, drinks, tobacco and so forth — moved from the checkout location as a part of this effort to "professionalize" the store front?
Haney: New directives were issued on how and where publications were to be displayed. The directive specifically addressed the movement of for-sale newsprint publications.
Bacon: How did this effort to "professionalize" the Marine Corps Exchange start? Who is in charge of this effort?
Haney: In December 2013, the deputy commandant for Manpower & Reserve Affairs directed the Semper Fit and Exchange Services Division to determine how to professionalize the front areas of our stores by providing a more polished look. As a result, the store entry merchandising strategy was reviewed and new directives were issued on how and where publications were to be displayed.
Bacon: How long with this effort take? When will it begin? Who will make final determination of the new standard? Will Marine Corps University play a role? If so, what is that role?
Haney: The deputy commandant for Manpower & Reserve Affairs will conduct a comprehensive review and provide an overall plan to meet the commandant's intent [as it relates to an emphasis on professionalism within the Marine Corps].
Bacon: Was Marine Corps Times' removal from the front of the story a response to its sometimes critical coverage of the Corps and specifically the commandant?
Caldwell: No. The commandant has sounded the call and that effort includes encouraging Marines to the profession of arms. To facilitate that objective, the deputy commandant for Manpower and Reserve Affairs has been working with Marine Corps Community Services to examine our exchanges and consider ways to promote professionally oriented materials. This encompasses more than publications, including, for example, the placement of food, snacks and other items marketed to Marines and their families. Accordingly, the Marine Corps will on an ongoing basis look closely at high-traffic areas like the checkout aisles and consider the placement of products that most benefit our Marines.
Bacon: Are you concerned that removing Marine Corps Times from the front of the store created a perception of retaliation and abuse of authority?
Caldwell: No. There are thousands of brands and products for sale in our exchanges. Every day, with little to no fanfare, Semper Fit and exchange services personnel make decisions on product placement.
Bacon: What value does top Marine Corps leadership see in independent media coverage of their decision making?
Caldwell: Every Marine is sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United States, which includes the guarantee of a free press. The Marine Corps places a premium on independent, professional and responsible reporting. Throughout our history it has been our pleasure to work with some of the world's premier reporters, photographers and journalists, men like Ernie Pyle and Joe Rosenthal. In more than 13 years of war, the Marine Corps has embedded literally thousands of reporters with our battlefront operations with very few incidents or concerns. By word and deed, we have demonstrated transparency and openness when working with media. But we have historically had to insist that these organizations demonstrate professionalism, journalistic integrity and fairness when covering the Marine Corps.
Bacon: Gen. Paxton's statement said "Reaction to the Marine Corps Times' relocation demonstrated a clear misunderstanding of intent." A clear misunderstanding by whom?
Caldwell: The Marine Corps' intent with this initiative has been misrepresented by associated reporting around the issue and therefore has perpetuated a misunderstanding by our Marines, their family members and others. This has been noted in recent conversations with Marines and in social media conversations.
Bacon: Fiscal guidance prohibits the use of operations and maintenance expenditures for the purchase of command subscriptions to Marine Corps Times. It does allow subscriptions for a number of other publications. The Pentagon, until the Early Bird brief was discontinued, regularly placed the importance of Marine Corps Times content on par with those publications. What factors led to Marine Corps headquarters' decision that Marine Corps Times is not of necessary value to Marines to include it with other publications on which O&M funds can't be spent?
Caldwell: The Marine Corps is operating in a fiscally constrained environment, like all of the services, and will continue to make difficult decisions on how best to use O&M funds. Guidance Headquarters Marine Corps provided on this, however, was not inflexible and specifically said "commanders should also seek every opportunity to discontinue extraneous O&M expenditures." In a year in which the Corps has downsized by thousands of Marines and furloughed nearly 20,000 of its valued employees, the Marine Corps must make best efforts to focus on those things that increase the effectiveness of its force and simply cannot commit to the unregulated purchase of excessive publications. It is noteworthy that this matter was not correctly represented in Marine Corps Times' previous reporting.
Bacon: A professional reading list is nothing new. What evidence or data do you have that suggests Marines are not engaging this professional material to the desired degree? What evidence does the Marine Corps have that placement at these checkouts will change Marines' response?
Hughes: Our leadership wanted a more holistic approach, and they wanted a holistic approach to look at this prior to the movement. I think, suffice it to say, the movement of Marine Corps Times was premature to any completed study or analysis. And the commandant recognized that immediately and said let's get these guys back up front right back where they were, but he still expects a completed, thorough analysis that quite frankly could find you located somewhere else in the exchange.
The analogy I always use is what does the checkout line look like at the Olympic village? What does the checkout line look like at the Seattle Seahawks training area? What products are immediately available for these athletes? I've been doing this stuff since 1988 and the exchange line hasn't changed at all. So maybe instead of the 500-calorie Snickers bar and the purple Monster, maybe I ought to be buying a protein bar and a mineral water. And picking up a copy of "Message to Garcia" instead of Maxim. That's the holistic look our leadership wants us to take and it wasn't taken, for whatever reason. And were going to hit the reset button and take another look.
Bacon: You didn't move the Snickers or the Monster energy drinks. You named Maxim, which is not going to move. And by identifying things that might not be, in your mind, healthy or professional for people, you've lumped Marine Corps Times in that group. I'd like to understand that.
Hughes: Our senior leadership wanted a study, wanted the focus group, and that's what they've tasked us to do. And that's what they understood would take place prior to articles being moved. And they've taken all of us to task to put the rigor to it, to do the focus group, the discussion. You know what, all of these products would remain in the exchange. No one is banning, no one is prohibiting, we are just saying, "what is immediately available for the corporal that has 30 minutes to jump in the exchange prior to going back to work, what do we make readily available to him or to her?" And to sit down and look at it holistically, study it and come up with some facts, some bona fide facts, and [understand the] desires of our young Marines. Like I said, none of this has changed since 1988, so let's look at it and gather some facts and do some focus groups and figure out the best service we can provide for these Marines.
Bacon: Who is making the determination about what Marines want and or need?
Hughes: The exchange services are here to provide a service to our Marines and their families, first and foremost. A profit, unlike Target, the bottom line is not the most important factor for all our exchanges. When you look at some of the most profitable items in the exchange: firearms, ammunition, alcohol, a lot of these items are placed not in a readily accessible area. You must go to the rear of the exchange in Quantico to access the gun counter.
Bacon: Well, that's a law. What role is the preference of individual Marines and families going to play in your study?
Caldwell: I think that is an answer to be determined by the operational planning team that is going to be working this. But the review is supposed to be comprehensive. That's what I'll tell you. That's the direction and the guidance that has been provided.
Bacon: When the decision was made to move Marine Corps Times, was the commandant made aware of it and the details contained therein?
Hughes: I'll jump on that one. You know, the commandant is concerned with, the commandant, let me just gather my thoughts for a second. When he became aware of this issue, he's the one that directed get the Marine Corps Times back to the front. He understood the impression that this would have with many, and that was certainly not his intent. He wants a holistic look at how we do business. What product is here, immediately available for our Marines and why. And a holistic means, focus groups, discussions, an ongoing process, not just somewhat immediately moving an individual product. And he recognized how this would be perceived and quickly said "my goodness let's get this back to the front until we can complete a thorough study."
But having said that, where your product is ultimately placed is still yet to be determined. And the thing that's a little troubling in having this conversation with you is, it's his exchange. Ultimately, our Marine Corps senior leadership set up these exchanges to support Marine families, but it is our Marine Corps exchange. And as I look at it over the course of my career, a number of products that were made available when I was a junior Marine are no longer in there for a number of reasons, some good and bad.
Bacon: Back to the fiscal guidance: It specifically says "commanders are prohibited from using O&M to purchase commercial publications focused primarily on local or special interest matters" and gives examples including Marine Corps Times. Can you explain why the Los Angeles Times is acceptable for a Marine command to purchase but Marine Corps Times is not?
Caldwell: The word "should" is in there, not "shall." The quote from the fiscal guidance is not inflexible. It's open to interpretation. The examples were the Economist, Aviation Weekly, obviously the Financial Times and the Military Times, because it is narrowly focused on the military. Now those other publications cover military issues as well as Marine Corps issues. So it's just saying, make the choice. You have this much money to spend. We recommend that you limit all of the applications that you subscribe to, and here's some examples of how to differentiate between ones, you know, some and others.
Bacon: So commanders are not forbidden from purchasing Marine Corps Times at their discretion with O&M funds?
Caldwell: They are recommended not to. If they come up short on the books and they say look at all these extra points you been spending your money on, they're going to have to explain that.

Powell returns to field
Published: Sunday, August 4, 2013 at 10:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 3, 2013 at 11:54 p.m.
Pardon Florida's Ronald Powell if he can barely curb his enthusiasm about the Gators opening preseason camp.
"I'm very excited," Powell said. "I've been away from football for obviously longer than I expected and everybody else expected, but it was God's terms.
"It's not like I haven't been around my teammates, but I can't wait to get back on the field with them. It's a different feeling, a special feeling."
Three years ago, Powell, from Rancho Verde High School in Moreno Valley, Calif., came to UF as the No. 1-ranked prospect in the nation by Rivals.com.
He was one of six members of the Gators' top-ranked 2010 incoming class to play in all 13 games as a true freshman, recording 25 tackles and earning Freshman All-SEC honors. He followed by starting 12 games as a sophomore in 2011, recording 32 tackles, three QB hurries and a forced fumble, finishing fourth on the team with nine tackles-for-loss (58 yards) and adding a team-high six sacks, earning third-team All-SEC honors.
But just when it looked like Powell was ready to step into his own, he suffered a torn ACL during the 2012 Orange & Blue Debut that resulted in him missing all of the 2012 season, the Sugar Bowl and all of 2013 spring practice. He received a medical redshirt.
"That's the longest I've ever had a break," he said. "I'm really anxious, but I'm trying not to be. It's something I need to take control over because I don't want to get too anxious and go out and override my body. I need to stay healthy and stay smart. I want to get back out there and play with my team, make an impact and do the things that I think I'm capable of doing."
Powell, a 6-foot-4, 240-pound redshirt junior, isn't the only one anxious.
"I know one thing; he's really excited to practice, and I may be more excited than him to see him on the field at practice," coach Will Muschamp said. "I've been through this situation before with guys who have come back from injury. You just manage them through it, and sometimes with a guy like him, it's hard to manage it because he's going to want to go, go, go all the time, and there are days where we're going to shut him down and make sure we're preparing him the right way for a long season."
Powell, who plays the Buck linebacker position, drew inspiration from Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, who returned to action last year after suffering a torn ACL during the 2011 regular season and led the NFL with a career-high 2,097 rushing yards in 2012.
"My expectations every day are to be better than I was," Powell said. "The article Sports Illustrated did on him (Peterson) when he came back from his ACL, that's up in my locker right now."
The big-play ability of this big talent could be a big plus for the Gators.
"I have tremendous expectations for where he is," Muschamp said. "His strength levels are very good and the knee is stable.
"He's worked extremely hard and is in good shape. He's worked as hard as any of our players have all summer to put himself in position to have a great year."

Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) is a part of the federal school lunch program started in 1977 benefiting children in family daycare homes and providing reimbursement to child care providers for serving nutritious meals and snacks for enrolled children in care.
Day care providers must keep menus and attendance records for meals served to children enrolled in their care. The program is designed to help cover the cost of meals so that a portion of dollars spent for food do not come from the providers or the parent's income, while children are assured of nutritional sound meals and snacks. It also adds extra dollars into your local economy.
To participate, providers must have a current child care license. or certificate of registration.
Dodge City Community College is the CACFP sponsor in 10 counties:

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 28/12/2012 (1699 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
An accused Winnipeg killer is back in custody after allegedly going off the rails during the holidays.
Debbie Rose Redskye, 42, was arrested Thursday and charged with several breaches of her bail conditions, including failing to abstain from alcohol and drugs, failing to abide by a curfew and failing to live at a specified address.
Redskye is one of four people accused of a deadly beating inside an Aberdeen Avenue home last October. She was charged with manslaughter and released on strict bail conditions several days later.
Leroy George Ross, 38, suffered fatal injuries during a night-long drinking party which area residents say was a routine event that became the scourge of the neighbourhood.
Police allege Ross was jumped by three women inside the house, with the attack spilling into the backyard, where a man joined the women as they beat Ross.
Police said the attackers went back inside and rejoined the party, leaving Ross lying in the backyard where he was found several hours later by a police officer on a neighbourhood beat patrol.
Ross was taken to hospital in critical condition but died of his injuries the following day. It was the city's 25th homicide of 2012. Ross and his attackers were friends, police said.
Linda Margaret McDoughall, 35, Mary Sue Harper, 37, and Swanson Annanias Ross, 42, have also been charged with manslaughter.

Evolution Hoax
A9 TV, Gaziantep Olay TV; 17 May 2011
87- but for a mercy from your Lord. His favour to you is indeed immense.
Abjad (numerological) calculation gives a date of 1980. The date of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as).
88- Say: 'If both men and jinn banded together to produce the like of this Qur'an, they could never produce anything like it, even if they backed each other up.'
This is breathtaking when read in Arabic. So perfect is its language and so harmonious, that it has been impossible to imitate it for 1400 years. It conflicts with science on not one single point, and there are no contradictions between the verses of the Qur'an. If a person were to write a book it would contain 100 inconsistencies. It would conflict with science hundreds of times. And this was written 1400 years ago. The Qur'an revealed scientific facts that has not yet been discovered. It revealed such scientific facts as that matter was created from nothing, for instance, that time is relative and that the universe was covered in smoke when it was first created. It is essential for it to be in every home and for everyone to read it. It revealed this 1400 years ago. The Qur'an is light.

THE local non-league scene is in shock after popular manager Dave Turner died in the early hours of this morning.
It is believed that the Shrivenham boss, who was in his early-50s, died of a heart attack at around 12.30am.
An enthusiastic and effervescent character, Turner took up the reins at Shrivvy in the summer following a five-year spell at Wootton Bassett.
He guided Bassett to two promotions to the Hellenic League Premier Division and took them farther than they had ever been in the FA Cup and FA Vase.
Under Turner's leadership and in his first season in charge, Bassett reached the FA Vase second round in 2008/09 where they were defeated 4-0 at 1992 winners Wimborne.
Bassett were subsequently promoted to the Hellenic League Premier Division in 2009/10, missing out on the Division One West title to Slimbridge only on goal difference.
Controversially demoted the following season after failing to meet ground grading criteria, Bassett bounced back in 2012/13 as Turner led them to second in the table behind Brimscombe & Thrupp, securing promotion.
That same campaign, Bassett achieved their best-ever run in the FA Cup, beating Calne, Hamworthy and Highworth to make it to the second qualifying round where they lost 4-0 to Conference South Dorchester.
Off the back of that success, Turner left Bassett for local rivals Shrivenham in May last year.
Turner, an ardent Swindon Town supporter, was also a former manager of Pewsey Vale.
He is survived by his wife Trisha and sons Alex, 24, and James, 22.
James is currently signed on at Shrivenham and also played for his father at Wootton Bassett.
Shrivenham's Hellenic League Challenge Cup third-round fixture at home to Wantage tomorrow night has been postponed.

HOUSTON - Not everyone can afford to do a full home remodel. If money is tight, a new coat of paint might be the pick me up your house needs to make something old feel new.
The most popular home improvement is painting. It can also be one of the cheapest.
There are still ways stretch those painting dollars.
"Painting is a great way to freshen up your house," said Angie Hicks of Angie's List.
Hiring a professional may save you some headaches, but before you hand over the money, Hicks says make sure you ask what is included in the estimate.
Does it include the prep work? How many coats of paint will it entail? What products will they be using? Will they supply those products?
"Many painting contractors use only specific kinds of paint because they'll warrant their labor. So be sure you're comparing apples to apples," said Hicks.
Hicks suggests meeting the painter in person and getting three estimates before committing to the job.
Also, ask where the budget can be cut.
Painter Greg Mrakich says moving all of the furniture out of the room yourself cuts his estimates in half.
"It can turn $1,000 job into a $500 job because I'm not moving furniture. I'm painting," said Mrakich.
The choice of color can actually change the feel of a room.
To open up a small area, Mrakich says consider painting the doors and walls the same color.
"If you paint them the same color as the walls but in a semi-gloss, you're not cutting up the wall space that way and everything will be one continuous color and it will make the room seem larger," said Mrakich.
If you like dark colors but you have a small space, try that color on just one wall.
"You don't want to go too dark just because it will make the room seem closed in," said Mrakich.
When adding up the budget, you will want to know the square footage of the area that needs to be painted. One gallon will cover roughly 350 square feet.
Also do not forget to add in the cost for the same gallons in primer and possible second coats.

How to Fix the Problem of Rock v Cena
by, 11-24-2011 at 07:01 AM (4180 Views)
Hi Again, I wasn't ripped to shreds for my first blog so I figured it would be safe to return with Part II "How to Fix the Problem"
I will freely admit that my thoughts on this push creative license to the limit, and in all honesty there is no real chance of this ever happening, but with some major twists and returns it could be a MASSIVE build up to Mania. Please accept my apologies if you don't agree with this, it is meant purely as my ideal scenario to make the Rock vs. Cena matter.
Step one – bring in a few outsiders.
Raw, 28th November – opening match. Cena will have to be booked against someone, and as the E are at a loss with what to do with him at the moment let's say he is up against Christian . During the match Christian goes to the outside and grabs his crutch and nails Cena with it. (Cena of course wins by DQ). Christian then continues to beat down on Cena. Who comes to his aid? Miz. After knocking Christian out to the floor Miz then salutes Cena and walks, leaving a bewildered Cena in the ring. On the ramp Miz gets a mike and explains that he was sick of someone from ten years ago taking the glory and he believes he should be the one in the spot light, and if it means helping Cena get rid of the Rock so be it, and he has got his back until Mania. Cena says he doesn't want or need his help, and tells him to take a walk, which Miz does. Out comes Johnny Ace, and in a Teddy Long moment, makes a tag team match between Cena and the Miz and Christian/Barrett next week on Raw.
Raw 5th December – highlight of the evening – a VT from the Rock. He is in the gym on a weight bench. He talks about how twice now he has laid out Cena, and how at Mania he will do it again. Then out of nowhere he is hit in the side of the head with a dumbbell. The camera pans round and there is JoMo (for the sake of this he has signed a new contract). Back to the action and the main event tag team match, which Miz and Cena duly win. After the match Miz grabs the mike and says that he asked JoMo to do what he did, as he feels the same way Miz does, and they are both out to help him. Cena looks aghast as we go to credits.
Raw 12th December – the Rock is back. He is in the ring and he is pissed. He calls Cena, Miz and JoMo out so he can put boot to asses. Out comes Cena to a cacophony of boo's. he gets in the ring and tries to explain that what happened to the Rock wasn't his fault. He never wanted their help and none of this is anything to do with him. Rock says it doesn't matter what you say and nails Cena with a big right hand. He continues to stomp on him until out comes Mick Foley! He pulls Rock off Cena and tries to calm him down in the opposite corner. Through the crowd come Miz and JoMo who proceed to beat down Mick with chairs. Cena i sup now and goes to pull them off, but then shakes his head and walks out of the ring. Rock follows him but gets an AA on the ramp. We go to credits.
TLC – 18th December – Cena vs. JoMo in a Tables match, Foley is the guest referee, Miz is on commentary for the match. Usual high flying from JoMo, very little action in the way of weapons for most of the match, typical PG stuff. They end up on the ramp, and with Foley distracted Mix pulls out a broken table from under the ring, and sneaks it in the ring before giving Foley the skull-crushing finale and scuttling off to the announcers desk. Cena drags JoMo back to the ring just as Foley is stirring. He goes for the AA but JoMo kicks out and back body drops Cena on to the broken table which Foley sees and calls for the bell. Cena argues with him but it does no good and he walks to the back. Miz is in the ring with a chair and nails Foley. He and JoMo continue the beat down until all the referees form the back pull them off.
Raw 19th December – Miz and JoMo are in the ring. They explain that Foley isn't there as he was beaten so badly he was still in the hospital, and if Rock has any sense he will stay by his side. They say they did it on Cena's orders and the proof is that Cena didn't try and stop them beating down on Foley. Cena comes to the top of the ramp and denies everything. He says to prove this he will go one on two against them right now. We kick the match off and by the looks of things he is telling the truth, although he looks a little slow in the ring. Finally after the 5 moves of doom he gets JoMo in the STF, and Miz makes the save, and they both proceed to give Cena a kicking. The Rocks music hits, and he makes his way to the ring, but stops on the steps. He looks like he isn't going to help, but then gets into the ring and clears out Miz and JoMo. They start to make their way up the ramp with Rock watching them and while his back is turned Cena gets up – he wasn't beaten by them, it was all a ruse to get the rock out in the ring. Cena hits the AA on Rock and Miz and JoMo return and all 3 of them destroy the Rock, and Cena hugs them both. The heel turn is complete.
i am running out of space so i will summarise how i would go from here. i would bring in another couple of heels to make a proper faction for Cena, say Swagger and Ziggler with Vicki as the manager. Johnny Ace could also be on their side as putting then at an unfair advantage against the Rock and Foley, meaning they would need to create…
…The Attitude Era faction! Jericho is possibly on his way back, as is masked Kane. Team them up with Rock/Foley, have Shane O Mac join them too as opposition to Johnny Ace. Kevin Nash is in Ace's pocket so he could be expected to join the heels, means trips would fit nicely into the Attitude faction. The possibilities are endless. Any of today's roster could join the heel faction, and the Attitude faction could recruit Vince McMahon, Undertaker, X-Pac, the new age outlaws…the list goes on.
I believe a storyline of Era vs. Era would be huge. Not only would the fans of today be happy, but fans of yesterday (like me) be happy. The dream matches we have all wanted to see could really happen. And the highlight of the angle? The pinnacle of the storyline? The answer is simple. A match at Mania that matters. A match that fans from yesterday and now would do anything to witness.
The leader of the Attitude Era vs. the leader of the PG era.

As the big four banks look for new ways to grow income during a period of low credit growth, rising impairment costs and rising capital ratios, Macquarie Group has decided to throw its hat in the retail banking ring.
A news story in BusinessDay outlined that Macquarie would form a joint venture distribution deal with Mark Bouris' Yellow Brick Road Group.
The publication of the story prompted Yellow Brick Road to go into a trading halt ahead of an announcement. It is an interesting move given competition in retail banking is ferocious and the big four banks have the advantage over the rest of the banking sector in that they can access debt more cheaply than those with lower credit ratings.
The big four have a credit rating of AA, while Macquarie Bank has a rating of A from Standard & Poor's, A2 rating from Moody's and an A rating from Fitch.
In the past couple of weeks, Australia's big four banks have reported either full-year or quarterly earnings, all showing that funding costs remain high, credit growth is slowing and impairment charges are rising.
The banks that performed the best are the ones that kept a lid on expenses. And so it was with the Commonwealth Bank today, which was able to lift profits against an increasingly challenging set of circumstances. CBA reported a 6 per cent profit, putting it on track for another record profit for the year, largely due to its ability to keep expenses under control along with impaired loans.
As the euro zone continues to grapple with some massive problems and the Chinese economy slows, the Australian economy is facing some tough headwinds, which is playing out in the Australian banking system.
It means those expecting a rate cut from the Reserve Bank next month shouldn't factor in the banks passing on the full easing.
What it means is that the era of record profits for the banks will continue but the days of super-profits are over. With the home loan market stalling and bad and doubtful debts starting to rise, profit growth will be increasingly driven by the expense line.
The challenge will be to find new sources of income growth. ANZ has bet on Asia as the road to new growth, NAB has bet on an improvement in business banking, a turnaround in the UK and a lift in its financial services operations, Westpac is hoping its resuscitation of the Bank of Melbourne brand works and Commonwealth Bank has a big exposure to wealth management.
For the regional banks, it will be interesting to see how tough competition, weaker demand in personal banking and rising costs of capital will continue to impact earnings. As for Macquarie, it will be more a question of watch this space.

Foreign exchange intervention has long had a bad reputation; it earned the beggar-thy-neighbour tag back in the 1930s. Now, even actions that aren't explicitly aimed at influencing the exchange rate, such as the Federal Reserve's quantitative easing, prompt accusations that central banks are provoking a "currency war".
A fascinating piece of research, published by the Bank for International Settlements on Tuesday, claims this bad rep is no longer fair. Read more

Dogs seized after Ōtaki attack
November 29, 2012 – for immediate release
Dogs seized after Ōtaki attack
Council animal control officers seized two dogs yesterday after two women were attacked in Ōtaki.
Both women suffered serious bites in the late afternoon attack and were taken to Palmerston North hospital by ambulance.
Police and animal control officers attended the scene and two dogs believed to be responsible for the attack were seized under section 57 of the Dog Control Act.
It is understood the first woman attacked was known to the dogs, but wasn't the owner. She suffered extensive bites to her arms and legs. The second woman came to her aid and suffered a serious bite to her upper leg.
Group Manager Community Services Tamsin Evans says Council staff are working with police to establish exactly what happened and to determine what legal action may be taken against the owner.
"This was a very nasty attack that shocked experienced animal control officers. It must have been a terrifying ordeal for the women involved and has left them with serious wounds that will take time to heal."
Both women are in a stable condition in Palmerston North hospital.
The attack happened on private property and the dogs concerned are described as pit bull type dogs.
Inquiries into the incident are continuing and Police say they'd like to hear from anyone who witnessed the attack or has any information. Call Ōtaki Police Station on 06 364 7366.

BAR staff in the Ribble Valley have been warned after some were caught selling alcohol to youngsters.
Police, trading standards officers and teenage volunteers carried out a test purchase operation in Whalley and Longridge.
Eight pubs were visited and five failed to make ID checks – allowing a 15-year-old girl and 16-year-old boy to buy bottles and pints of beer.
Co-ordinator PC Martin Midgley said: "I'm disappointed premises are still supplying alcohol to children and caring little for age awareness.
"Every premises should challenge the age of anyone who looks under 25 and enforce a no-ID, no-sale policy.
"We will continue to work with the local authority to crack down on underage sales."
Staff and the alcohol licence-holder for each pub caught out will now meet trading standards and police and a decision will be made about any further action.
Deputy leader of Lancashire County Council Albert Atkinson said: "It is very disappointing to see the number of pubs which have failed during this latest operation. It sends out a message to all retailers that they must take whatever action is needed to ensure their business operates responsibly and within the law, and make use of the advice we make available to them through the Age Check scheme.
"Our advice to retailers of alcohol products is to operate a policy of asking for identification if they think a customer is under the age of 25, as this margin of error for their staff makes it much less likely an underage sale will take place."
The test purchase took place on February 15.

DETROIT - If it seems like you're spending a little extra cash this holiday season, you're not imagining things. Overall this year, prices are about 2 percent higher than last holiday season, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
For some popular items, the increase is even worse. NBC News came up with this list of 8 things that will cost you a little more this holiday season.
READ: Toys R Us to stay open for 88 hours for holiday shopping blitz
Up first, something we all need, clothing! There was a cotton shortage in 2011 that pushed clothing prices up 6 percent. "Consumers didn't balk at the increase, so I don't think prices will be less expensive this year," says Marshal Cohen, chief retail analyst for the NPD Group Inc. in Port Washington, N.Y.
Shoppers' desire to buy upscale clothing adds to the problem. Miami consumer blogger Annie Vazquez, who runs The Fashion Poet blog and has been featured in Elle magazine, says clothing could be pricier at big-box stores such as Target, as known designers such as Oscar de la Renta are introducing discount lines.
Read: Unisex Easy-Bake oven on the way
"It's going to be a huge thing," she says. "Target shoppers are very interested in labels."
Shoppers are also facing higher prices on another necessity: shoes. Many brands are using celebrities to sell their pumps and that means higher prices, after paying that celebrity spokesperson.
Plus, Marshal Cohen says high-end athletic shoes across the board are more expensive.
The holidays are a popular time for giving the gift of digital cameras. However, manufacturers such as Nikon and Canon are in a conundrum because every smartphone has a camera.
"Since so many phones have cameras, they are manufacturing better digital cameras to compete with that to offer consumers better quality," Vazquez says. "Many of these cameras also offer top-notch video capabilities. Camera phones can only do so much."
So, if you are going to indulge the shutterbug in your family, be ready to put down some serious bucks. Stores such as Best Buy will package a camera with a set of lenses, a bag and other items, which also drives up the price, she says.
Prices for these high-tech SLRs can range anywhere from $500 for a Canon Rebel to more than $1,000 for a Nikon D700.
Electronic gadgets are popular gifts, but that means you may need to get a new data plan, and carriers are no longer being so generous with the cost of those plans.
Part of the reason is that cellphone carriers are eating the price of much of these high-tech smartphones thinking the data plans will more than make up for these loss leaders.
"Phone companies have figured out they can make a lot of money on the service side," Cohen says."Everybody thinks, 'I just bought the iPad or a Kindle Fire, and I just turn it on,' but to access the Internet and download products, you have to have a data plan," he says.
"It's the new razor-blade model," says Joe Feldman, a senior analyst for the Telsey Advisory Group in New York City, referring to how razor companies make money off the blades, not the razor itself.
The hottest toys of the season can also put a dent in your holiday budget. Only six items on the Toys R Us hot toy list cost less than $50 and give cost $100 or more. Even the majority of toys on Walmart's list are at least $50.
When you make your holiday budget, you may plan for all the gifts, but you might forget to add the other everyday items like food and fuel. However, you need power to turn on all those holiday lights, and gas to visit Grandma's house. If you're entertaining the family, they need to eat!
Fuel and food prices have risen over the last 12 months on the whole, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In its November Consumer Price Index release, the BLS said indexes for gasoline and fuel oil have increased over the last 12 months, rising 9.1 percent and 5.6 respectively. But there is a brighter side to this -- electricity and natural gas prices have declined.
On the food front, the BLS said groceries have increased in price about 1 percent over the last 12 months. Eating out is also more expensive, rising 2.7 percent since October 2011.
Finally, for longer trips to visit long-distance family or friends, airline tickets have seen price increases. Domestic ticket prices are up 4 percent from 2011, according to industry trade group Airlines for America.
For those thinking of traveling by car, gas has dipped some, giving a bit of relief. But "we are still looking at historically high prices," says Heather Hunter, spokeswoman for AAA in Orlando, Fla.

Britney Spears files for divorce
Britney Spears filed for divorce today citing "irreconcilable differences" and asking for both legal and physical custody of their two children with K-Fed getting reasonable visitation rights. As for money, the two have already signed a prenup, although Britney is waiving her right to spousal support. She's also asking the judge to make each party pay their own attorney's fees, which means when they show up in court Britney is gonna have her expensive celebrity lawyer and K-Fed is gonna have half a hot dog because he couldn't afford the rest.
Britney also gives the date of separation as yesterday, which is the same day she showed up on David Letterman's show looking oddly good. I don't want to imply Kevin Federline was the cancer in this relationship, but if we still remember who this guy is in 6 months it'll be a testament to how far we've fallen as a society.

DrMrLordX - Wednesday, February 07, 2007 - linkcool, thanks Reply
Rike - Monday, February 05, 2007 - linkYou might want to put up pics that are consistent. When I saw the first pic on page one, the fist thing I noticed was that the four pin was still there, which surprised me. Pics on pages 1 & 12 show a four pin power connection on the drive while the page 2 pics clearly show a big hole where the four pin would be. Of course the text on page two says . . .
The new SE family ships with the Serial ATA data and power connectors but drops support for the 4-pin Molex power connector designed for use with older ATX power supplies.
You might want to clear this one up.
Gary Key - Tuesday, February 06, 2007 - linkThe press photos that WD sent us had the old casing for the open drive pictures. We really did not want to use them and WD was unable to provide new pics. I thought it was important to show the new platter design but certainly was not thrilled with using the old pictures. I will change them up today. Reply

semo - Monday, February 05, 2007 - linkGary, are you thinking of including some ssds (slc and mlc) in the mix for future comparisons. also, are you planning on doing a raid article (again with ssds too) and see if raid edition drives make a difference. Reply
Gary Key - Monday, February 05, 2007 - linkHi,
We will have a ssds roundup in March if the products are released on schedule. We will concentrate on SLC first as the MLC drive I do have is just terrible for general desktop usage. It was designed for industrial use and even I would not want to be a user at that workstation. ;) I am working on RAID article for March that will cover several chipsets and drives along with some new benchmarks. Reply
oDii - Monday, February 05, 2007 - linkGary, would it be possible along side the various chipsets to see how Linux Software RAID performs (http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO-5.html">http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO-5.html or XFS)? It'd be great to see the results in context, as I haven't been able to find a complete and reliable source of results. Reply
semo - Monday, February 05, 2007 - linkthanks!
the only reason i wanted to see an mlc drive in a roundup is to get an idea how bad they are but i get the picture now.
i wonder if the faster response of the ssds compensate for their lower transfer rates and beat hdds in general usage. i guess we'll find out in march. Reply
mostlyprudent - Monday, February 05, 2007 - linkI should wait to see some numbers from the versions with 16MB cache sizes, but for me - this article reaffirms my choice of the Seagate 7200.10 320GB. Reply

A SENIOR transport boss at Worcestershire County Council has admitted scrapping park and ride WILL increase congestion - but insists it is a price worth paying.
Peter Blake, who has been in charge of integrated transport at County Hall, says closing sites at Perdiswell and Sixways will add more cars to the roads but believes it won't be "significant".
He also believes part dualling the A4440 Southern Link Road - which is due to be complete by 2019 - will do far more than either park and ride could to ease traffic.
His comments come amid fresh criticism from the former Labour leadership at Worcester City Council, which has labelled the cutbacks "terrible".
Mr Blake has also refused to rule out park and ride returning to Worcester at some point in the future - but insists the onus will be on commercial providers to show some commitment to it.
"At the Perdiswell service, parking there is declining and has been for some time," he said.
"You could reduce the service and it would cost us less, but those passenger numbers would only continue to decline.
"We certainly don't sit here with a magic bullet (for dealing with congestion), bus usage is falling nationally, outside of London it's dropped remarkably.
"At the moment 200 cars a day use Perdiswell but that Barbourne corridor alone takes 23,000 vehicles daily.
"One in five cars travel through the city centre because they perceive it to be less congested than the Southern Link Road.
"I don't think you can answer the congestion issue by just looking at public transport - you need to look at highways and we're on site at the southern link now, which is used by over 30,000 vehicles a day.
"Cutting public transport will have an impact, but I'd question whether that impact is significant."
His comments come as Councillor Adrian Gregson, the former Labour city council leader, called the move "backwards".
"We need a long-term vision for easing congestion and this goes completely against that," he said.
"We are just lurching from one year to the next, we know this will increase congestion yet it's still going ahead."
As your Worcester News revealed last week, both park and rides are scheduled to close in September as part of a county council plan to cut £1.6 million from public transport.
The loss-making sites cost taxpayers £296,870 last year and have declined in popularity for several years.
The Perdiswell park and ride was used more than 450,000 times in 2008 but last year it reached a record low of 274,935.

TAUHEEDUL Trust will move its boys school temporarily to Shadsworth while it makes a new bid to build an Islamic academy at its preferred site in Shear Brow.
Problems getting planning permission to demolish the Edinburgh House YMCA building in Clarence Street for the purpose-built premises make the proposed opening date of September impossible.
Governors have been forced to use a contingency plan of transferring the school from its current temporary location in Bicknell Street, Little Harwood, to the former Blakewater College on Shadsworth.
The new planning application proposes to deal with residents' concerns about parking by building an underground car park for 20 vehicles.
This will allow it to bring back the multi-use games area. The development of the 700-pupil school on the site was thrown in to chaos in October when a High Court Judge ruled that dropping the games area for parking broke the council's own rules.
Now the earliest the revised scheme can be considered by the Blackburn with Darwen borough planning committee is March 20.
Committee member Phil Riley said: "The original September opening date for the new school is now impossible. The Tauheedul Trust are proposing to move the school temporarily from its current site to the former Blakewater College on Shadsworth.
"The only downside is that pupils will still be traipsing across the town to get to class."
Shadsworth councillor Tony Humphrys said: "I welcome Tauheedul coming to Blakewater. The school has been empty since last summer and this is a good use for the buildings and will stop them being vandalised." Ansar Ali, of Clarence Street, one of the leading protestors against the YMCA plan, said: "I and other residents remain strongly opposed to the plan a 700 pupil school on the Edinburgh House site.
"It's too many pupils at a school which would be in the wrong place. I think it should move to Blakewater College permanently."
No-one from the Tauheedul Trust was available to comment.
Proposals for the first Muslim free school in the country were first proposed in 2011 but the scheme for a new four-storey building on Clarence Street have provoked bitter opposition from neighbours.
