While the GOP's presidential hopefuls have been busy eviscerating each other in public, an even nastier war is going on between them on social networks involving sock puppets, botnets, and Viagra spammers. It seems Nixon's dirty tricks team were punters compared to these guys.
In a blog post published last Thursday, Mark Risher, CEO of social Web security company Impermium, wrote:
Political propaganda has infiltrated the social web. The latest edition of the Impermium Index has uncovered widespread social spam campaigns attempting to sway votes in the GOP Republican race. Our research shows that since the summer of 2011, organized political-spam tactics have been in use on the social web, with activity peaking around Super Tuesday.

Cringely's Notes from the Underground newsletter. | Get the latest insight on the tech news that matters from InfoWorld's Tech Watch blog. ]
Founded by three former leaders of Yahoo Mail's antispam team, Impermium acts as spam cop for commenting systems used by media heavyweights like CNN, the Washington Post, Time, Fox News, and others, as well as social networks like Bebo and Formspring. Impermium has analyzed tens of millions of comments in real time, looking for false accounts created by botnets that are used to hawk Viagra, promote online gambling, perform black-hat SEO, and so on.
According to Impermium, those very same social spammers have been hired to perform online hatchet jobs on Republican presidential candidates -- mostly attacking Mitt Romney -- by publishing tens of thousands of fake comments, social media updates, and blog posts.
I spoke to Risher and asked him how Impermium determines whether an account is fake and who's behind it. One way is simple: The same accounts that were used to promote a spammy product also logged on to leave nasty comments about a particular candidate. Or the same account left the exact same comment across hundreds of different sites. Or there were multiple accounts all created at the same time, using the same IP address, same browser version, and same operating system, all making similar posts from a similar location at the same time.
"Somebody is hiring spammers to do this," says Risher. "We just don't know who."
Whoever it is, they had a particular animus for the front-runner, Mitt Romney. There were five times as many negative comments about Romney as about Rick Santorum, and ten times more than those directed at Ron Paul or Newt Gingrich. Impermium found "zombie sleeper cells" of social media accounts that lay dormant for months, then woke up for three days and posted 500 negative comments apiece about Mitt Romney before vanishing.

Dads often get the short end of the stick when it comes to Father's Day. It's usually an afterthought for most folks and when they do remember, they'll fall back on the predictable coffee mug or novelty necktie for a gift. Sure, dear old dad will say he loves the gift, but then he'll unceremoniously put his new mug next to the other bajillion coffee mugs in the kitchen cabinet. This year, why not give dad a gift he'll actually use…and be delighted with?
To help you find a Father's Day gift that breaks the mold, we teamed up with the gents at Huckberry to create an awesome Father's Day Gift Shop.

The shop is full of unique items crafted by companies with which Huckberry has secured special discounts available only to members of the site. It's really enjoyable simply to browse through the selection. All items are guaranteed to arrive by Father's Day (except the beautiful made-to-order Bexar satchels which should still arrive by Father's Day — especially if you order early).
***Free shipping is available today only until midnight PST***
To help kick off the Day of Dad, Huckberry and the Art of Manliness want to give two lucky winners any item in the Father's Day Shop (and perhaps a bonus as well!). To find out how to win, keep reading.

The Phoenix Zoo — voted one of the nation's Top 5 zoos for kids — will celebrate its 50th anniversary this weekend with photos from the past and other activities.
Officials from the zoo will tell visitors how the zoo has evolved over the last five decades.
The effort to open the zoo started in 1961 when Robert E. Maytag, grandson of the founder of the Maytag appliance company, rallied friends to help open a zoo in Phoenix.
Maytag died the next year, but his wife Nancy emerged to organize the effort.
The zoo sees 1.4 million guests each year and is home to more than 1,100 animals.

WIXOM, Mich. -shootings in the city of Wixom has now expanded across the city and across county lines.
For more than three hours Friday evening a newly-formed, multi-jurisdictional task force met behind closed doors and poured over dozens of tips which could lead to a suspect.
"Know that we are coming for you," said Wixom Director of Public Safety Clarence Goodlein. "It's only a matter of time. We're coming for you."
In the past week, there have been a total of 16 reported shootings on roads in Wixom, Commerce Township, Lyon Township, Howell and Webberville. All of the communities are located near the Interstate 96 corridor between western Oakland County and Ingham County.
In many cases, drivers have reported seeing a gunman traveling toward them in the opposite direction, firing shots at their vehicle. So far, no one has been injured. However, in some cases, the bullets have come very close to the drivers.
"Well, I think it's crazy," said Raymond Bufford, of Wixom. "People are getting shot all over the place. Kids are scared. The parents are scared. Someone has to put a stop to it."
The suspect's vehicles is described as a a dark colored sports car covered with racing stripes. The headlights are possibly tinted blue.
Police have beefed up patrol enough to ease fears for a bit.
"Thank God no one has been shot," said Victor Vulaj, of Wixom. "No one has been hurt, but it's still weird when you hear things like this. It brings back memories of the sniper, everything that happened in (Washington D.C.). We have good faith in our police department right here and hopefully they can catch this person and make an example of them."
The majority of the shootings have been reported on Wixom Road in Wixom. Many drivers tell Local 4 they are avoiding the area.
-- During a news conference Friday, the Oakland County Sheriff offered this map of reported shootings along the Interstate 96 area from eastern Ingham County to western Oakland County. Reports have come from an area near Webberville, another area in Livingston County and Oakland County's Wixom and Commerce Township.

FIRE fighters from Taunton's Blue Watch will swap trainers for two wheels when they strap themselves into wheelchairs to train alongside British disabled tennis star Lucy Shuker.
Currently ranked 13th in the world for singles and doubles, Lucy, who was left paralysed from the chest down following a motorbike accident in 2001, will put the fire and rescue crew through their paces at Blackbrook Sports Academy in Taunton on Tuesday, December 11.
Chris Snook, Fire Services Sports & Social Association Secretary said: "This is a great opportunity to show how sport is a common language and allows Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service to interact in areas where it may have been hard for us to broach before.
"Having recently met Lucy, she was only too willing to assist us in showcasing just what we can offer to some of our groups with mobility issues.
"It will be very interesting to see how some of the watch handle playing sport from a wheelchair.
"The whole scenario will give us all a different perspective of how hard and difficult it can be from Lucy's viewpoint."
Lucy added: "I had the pleasure of meeting Blue Watch at Taunton Fire Station before the Paralympics.
"They were a lovely group of people who gave me much support during the Paralympic Games and who showed an interest in trying the game for themselves.
"I'm very much looking forward to seeing very fit and capable people get in a wheelchair and try tennis and some of the fitness drills I have to do on a regular basis."

A woman in Louisiana has won the right to give her neighbors what some consider an obscene holiday greeting -- at least for now.
Sarah Childs raised eyebrows in her Denham Springs neighborhood when she hung Christmas lights in the shape of a hand with an extended middle finger on her roof last month, the Daily Mail reported.
Read: Christmas on a global scale
The display drew complaints from neighbors, and Childs removed it twice after police threatened to fine her and take her to jail.
Her case drew the attention of the American Civil Liberties Union, which filed a lawsuit against the city, and on Thursday Childs won a temporary injunction to keep the lights up until another hearing in January, The Associated Press reported.
"Not only is it a direct First Amendment violation, the city also does not have the right to retaliate against Ms. Childs collaterally for conduct it could not prohibit directly," ACLU attorney Justin Harrison said in a statement.
Read: Wayne County Parks to host annual Lightfest, Toy Nights
Denham Springs attorney Paeton Burkett told the AP the city will comply with Brady's order. She declined to comment on the lawsuit.
Childs said she hung the display to send a message to neighbors, with whom she's been in a year-long dispute.

DETROIT - Metro Detroit allergy sufferers can expect to feel worse this year, and it's a pattern not likely to change in the next few years.
Those factors – An earlier arrival of spring and a longer growing season, along with increased precipitation and humidity from storms, will all potentially contribute to the increased presence and persistence of allergens, according to a report on Yahoo.com.
"For the year 2020, it looks realistic to say pollen counts will increase by 20 percent," said Dr.Leonard Bielory, an allergy specialist with the Rutgers Center for Environmental Prediction and a physician at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Jersey. However, many variables could change that prediction, he said."
Dr. Martin Hurwitz, and allergy and asthma expert at Beaumont Children's Hospital tells Local 4 that, his season, the pollen count may rise dramatically and suddenly when the colder temperatures that have been seen so far finally abate.
Asthma and Allergy Foundation's annual list of the 10 worst places for spring allergy sufferers is out.
These so-called allergy capitals are ranked based on pollen levels, use of allergy medications and the number of board-certified allergists in the areas, according to a foundation statement.
Everyone in the United States can expect their allergies to be worse this year, thanks to an unusually wet winter, the foundation says.
"Severe weather patterns can bring higher temperatures, higher pollen levels and increased exposure to mold, resulting in spring allergies that can peak stronger and last longer," Dr. Bill Berger, a California allergist, said in the statement.
Here are the top 10 worst allergy cities for 2013:
1. Jackson, Miss.
2. Knoxville, Tenn.
3. Chattanooga, Tenn.
4. McAllen, Texas
5. Louisville, Ky.
6. Wichita, Kan.
7. Dayton, Ohio
8. Memphis, Tenn.
9. Oklahoma City
10. Baton Rouge, La.

There's no denying these are a great looking pair of mitts, but they feel just as great. The slight curve is engineered to keep your palm in a natural and efficient position. The 2" of closed cell foam padding lessens the blows from your training sessions. The hook and loop enclosure is easily adjustable and the level of craftsmanship is evident from the reinforced stitching throughout these mitts.
The most impressive feature is the additional padded area underneath the palm, which keeps the mitt anchored very comfortably to your hand. Once in place, that mitt is not going to be moving around.

A mother has less than three months to raise £40,000 for her young son's life-changing operation after he was refused treatment on the NHS.
Ethan Gibbs, aged five, suffers from cerebral palsy, which severely stiffens his muscles and joints and has left him unable to walk without the aid of a special frame.
The happy, cheeky pupil from The Fairway School undergoes weekly physiotherapy and has regular appointments with consultants at various hospitals and a movement disorder clinic.
But he has been refused a life-changing operation by doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital who say his case is marginally too severe for him to qualify for treatment under the NHS.
His mother Gemma Gibbs, from The Orchard, in Edgware, is determined to raise the money herself to pay for the Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR), which involves separating the nerves at the base of the spinal cord to free up movement in cerebral palsy sufferers.
The 27-year-old said: "For our family it was never a question of him not having the operation – we will find a way.
"I couldn't believe it when they said he didn't qualify for the operation. He tries so hard and he's really started to walk a lot better – we felt it was unfair."
Doctors have told Gemma they do not believe the treatment will be effective for Ethan.
But the Reception pupil's school physiotherapist has written to Great Ormond Street to ask for a reassessment – a request that has reportedly been back by his consultant at Edgware Hospital.
For now though, single mother Gemma is working hard to organise events and fundraisers to help pay for the operation, which Ethan could have on July 4 if the money is gathered in time.
Gemma said: "He means the world to me and I want him to be out of pain and enjoying life like other children.
"If he had the operation he wouldn't have to be pumped with medicine, he wouldn't wake up every morning really stiff, he would be able to dress himself and have more independence.
"He's taught me so much over the years – you don't realise until you have a child with a disability how much they can teach you.
"He's always happy, even when he's in pain, and he never lets it get him down. He's just an amazing, cheeky little boy."
Former trainee accountant Gemma has already raised £3,000 and has organised various events, including a fun day at The Fairway School on April 27.
Friends and family are also pitching in with a poker night, leg waxing and a charity run, and have set up a website for online donations.
Gemma said: "He's so eager to walk and we're determined to get him this operation. Everyone has been supportive and I'm hoping we can reach the target in time."
To donate to Ethan's appeal or to find out more about the various fundraisers Gemma has organised, visit the fundraising page here.
Great Ormond Street Hospital said it is unable to comment on its assessments policy.

Zap! Boom!
|Lightning and boats: Just how terrified should you be about the mix?
Every ancient culture had some wonderful explanation for lightning. The Vikings, for one, said it was their god Thor whacking his mega hammer to an anvil while riding his chariot across the clouds. But the Vikings probably weren't standing on the bow of a boat in a thunderstorm when they came up with this explanation. A boat could be a wonderful platform for observing this awesome natural phenomenon if it weren't so terribly exposed. "I play it safe and keep the boat in port when scattered thunderstorms are forecast, even though it is otherwise a nice summer day," a Chesapeake Bay boater wrote us. He went on to ask about the actual probabilities of a boat being struck by lightning, possible consequences, and means of protection.
I'm afraid I cannot give this gentleman definitive answers; in fact, the science of lightning and just how to protect humans and property from it is much more tentative than one might assume. Oh, there are some statistics around that are a bit chilling. An estimated 40 million lightning strikes, which NOAA terms "an underrated killer," account for nearly 100 deaths annually in the United States, making lightning considerably more worrisome than hurricanes and sharks. Florida, with the most thunderstorms, averages more than ten deaths and 30 injuries from lightning per year, and approximately 25 percent of those are water-related. While it's true that most of the marine fatalities occur in open boats, it's also true that National Marine Electronics Association dealers report substantial amounts of lightning damage to big-boat electronics.
The current thinking is that lightning happens when particles within the violent up and down drafts of a thunderstorm cloud become charged through collisions. Different sizes acquire plus and minus charges, then separate into layers, producing enormous electrical potential both within the cloud and between the cloud and ground. There's no question that millions of volts can accumulate, eventually overcome the insulation of the air, and flash in multiple strokes that average five miles long. In the lightning's path the atmosphere is heated to about 50,000°F (three times the surface of the sun), producing a shock wave. Zap! Bang! Since light travels almost a million times the speed of sound, the flash is often seen before the thunder is heard. In fact, if you count the difference in seconds and divide by five, you'll have an approximate distance to the strike in miles. It's also said that just before a close flash, your hair will literally stand on end!
Lightning can strike cloud to cloud harmlessly, cloud to water harmlessly, or cloud to water via your boat. While it's true that sailboats with their tall masts are more susceptible to hits than powerboats, that is not the whole story. Tall masts and tuna towers also provide what's called a cone of protection. If you have a significant conductor overhead, and you can stay out of the conductive chain to ground, you are safer. Thus it is that leading lightning expert Ewen Thomson, an associate professor of electrical engineering at the University of Florida, writes, "An oceangoing power yacht has more risk factors than any other type of boat. Large, open deck spaces with an absence of natural lightning rods raise the risk of a direct attachment to anyone on deck." Moreover, on a power yacht without a prominent mast, "The natural path to ground is via onboard wiring through the main instrumentation cluster, likely destroying most other electronic systems as well."
You may, at this point, be interested in a Lightning Protection System (LPS). But it's a misnomer, as there is no proven way to actually protect a boat from lightning, only a technique for limiting damage when it strikes. Actually, there is a widely held myth, particularly among sailors, that an LPS--which is primarily a straight, highly conductive path from mast to water--causes more harm by attracting lightning than it does good. But there are also numerous documented cases where lightning blew a hole in a boat while trying to find a way out. Thomson conducted an extensive survey on this issue and concluded that grounding a sailboat mast does not increase strike risk and does reduce damage in the event of a strike.
Thomson also cites several studies that question the effectiveness of the one device promoted as a lightning stopper, the so-called "ion dissipater," a sort of stainless steel wire brush you'll sometimes see affixed atop a sailboat mast that is supposed to leak off a boat's attractive ground potential. Yet, despite negative conclusions drawn by multiple agencies including the FAA and NASA, the device is advocated on a large marine insurer's Web site today. As I said, the science of lightning protection is still evolving.

"I was very pleased with the engagement party invitations. I added a photo on the back with the couple's wedding website printed below the picture. I also added last names on the front instead of just first names. The text was clear and easy to read, which seemed to be a problem with some of the other invitations I received samples of. I liked getting a proof to confirm before they were printed. They also arrived quickly before the estimated date! Very happy with the invitation!"
"We used this for our upcoming engagement party and they are super cute! They are nice, small, and we have gotten a lot of compliments. The only thing I did not like was that the font was automatically lowercase. Luckily we were able to edit and change that. Great product!"
"Love the quality and print. The web page is user friendly. Exceptional service with free designer review which made my purchase easy and look so professional! I would recommend this company because you'll be glad you chose them to assist you to make your special occasion PERFECT! Very happy with my purchase and quality of the product!"

The North Platte St. Pat's volleyball team turned it up in the third and fourth sets on Tuesday to beat Gothenburg 26-24, 21-25, 25-20, 25-16 at the McGahan Activities Center.
St. Pat's (6-0) came out and took control right away. The Lady Irish took a 10-5 lead in the first set after Kari Slattery served for an ace on her fourth straight point in service.
Gothenburg (5-2) called timeout but the Slattery got another point out of her run when Brook Boucher made a block on the right side to make it a six-point lead.
The Irish led as much as 16-7 after Shelby Allberry made kills on consecutive plays. But the Swedes chipped away and they tied it up at 24 all after Aryn Meisinger served for two straight aces.
St. Pat's, who had setpoint at 24-20 before the run by Meisinger, got another setpoint on the following play when Gothenburg mishandled a freeball over the net by the Irish.
Brittany Lawrence then won the set with a kill from the middle that landed in the back right corner.
Both teams had leads in the second set. St. Pat's led 12-10 before Gothenburg rallied for a 17-14 lead.
But with the score tied at 20, Taylor Mroczek made a kill to give the Swedes the lead and the serve. Tiani Reeves then served for an ace that went off Slattery in the back row.
Allberry made a kill to get the serve back for the Lady Irish but Mroczek responded with a kill to give the serve back to Meisinger. Meisinger evened it up for Gothenburg with her jump-serve.
On both plays the Irish could barely get two hands on Meisinger's serve let alone pass out of it and the match went to the crucial third set.
"Aryn Meisinger has great top-spin on her jump-serve," Byrn said. "We struggled in serve-receive and I am also disappointed in how we served ourselves tonight."
In the third set, St. Pat's got a little momentum after Samantha Byrn made a kill to tie at eight points apiece. Allberry then found her serve and ran off four straight for a 12-8 lead.
The Swedes responded with a run by Mroczek, who also scored four straight and gave Gothenburg a 13-12 lead with an ace.
But Lawrence made back-to-back kills on the next two plays to give the Lady Irish the lead. Then the lead expanded to 18-14 after a block by the 6-foot-3 junior Lawrence.
From there, the Irish started to get a feel for Gothenburg's servers and they didn't allow the Swedes to get back into it again.
In the fourth set, St. Pat's got out to a 10-5 lead after Jenna Torres served for three straight points and from there, the lead kept growing before the Lady Irish ended it for the most emphatic victory of the match.
"In the third and fourth set, we got better with our serve-receive," said Byrn. "We were 50-percent serve-receive in the first two sets and then it got better. But we need to do it from start to finish."

BLACKBURN is being spruced up before the red carpet is rolled out for the Queen and Prince Philip on Maundy Thursday.
Volunteers will be spending the weekend collecting litter and will even offer to clean the doors and windows of businesses in and around the town centre if needed.
People are being urged to take part in tomorrow's event, from 10am to 2pm, arranged as part of the borough council's Your Call campaign.
As well as the clean-up, flowers are being planted in the cathedral garden, to ensure the town looks its best for when Her Majesty hands out Maundy Money to people from all over Lancashire.
Council officials had already planned a First World War theme for spring planting, and plans to put new flowers in have been moved forward to tie in with the monarch's visit.
A spokeswoman said: "We are keeping our planting to red, white and blue colours for the next four years. We introduced, as part of our review of resources, a dedicated gardener for the town centre, which is showing the benefits, with the improvements to the planting and general maintenance around the town centre."
Police have also been securing the cathedral and officers wearing purple gloves have been seen searching the building and the grounds Blackburn with Darwen Council Coun Kate Hollern leader said: "We feel extremely proud that our cathedral was chosen for the Royal Maundy celebrations and in the run-up to the official visit, wanted to share that feeling of pride with an event that really brings the community together.
"People who take part in Your Call activities are invaluable."
She added: "I wanted to say thank-you to everyone who is giving up their time to allow us to offer all of these fun activities and I for one am looking forward to joining in myself.
"This is a fantastic borough and has a real community spirit which events such as these brings out."
Tomorrow's fun day on King William Street runs from 10am to 2pm, where people can meet for the clean-up, and when children can make their own Maundy Money from pottery. There will be a face painter and craft stall for making bunting or a regal flag.
There will also be a mini fun fair by the town hall and puppet-making workshops.
And Blackburn Museum and Art Gallery is displaying a collection of Maundy Money, from Wednesday to Saturday, from noon until 4.45pm.

A personal website published in Dubai provided information about the content of the Atlas of Creation and the works of its author, Harun Yahya. It contained the following statements:
0000-00-00 00:00:00
"Atlas of Creation" – a book by Turkish philosopher Harun Yahya . . . The author presents some proofs that evolution never happened. Animals and plants we can see now are the same which were recorded in million years old fossils. We can explain the existence of life only assuming that it has a Creator. And this is the idea which troubles the French. . . .

Head to Snowbird this weekend and watch on as small athletes conquer big lines. The IFSA Junior Big Mountain Freeskiing and Snowboarding event will set up course in Snowbird's Gad Valley, where natural mountain crags and steep descents become the competitive stomping grounds for fearless teens on skis and snowboards.
This next generation of super shredders is muscling their way into the lineup of today's big mountain skiers, laying claim to the technical descents that some of the world's biggest rippers and local all-stars – Rachel Burkes, Juliann Carr, Shannan Yates-Cochrane and the likes – have also come to master.
Spectators can catch a glimpse of these up-and-coming athletes' fluid and technical skill near the event's finish line in Gad Valley. Skiers and snowboarders will be competing on Jan. 19, 20 and 21 from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Tampa, FL (Sports Network) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers traded cornerback Eric Wright to the San Francisco 49ers Friday for a conditional 2014 draft pick.
Wright was the Cleveland Browns' second-round pick in 2007 and started all 10 of the games he appeared in last season in Tampa Bay. He had one interception and seven pass deflections.
The 27-year-old has played six seasons with Cleveland, the Detroit Lions, and Tampa Bay. He has 14 interceptions and 70 pass deflections in 85 career games (81 starts).
Wright was projected to start across from Darrelle Revis, who the Bucs acquired from the New York Jets in April for a 2013 first-round pick and a 2014 conditional pick.
In addition to Wright, the 49ers signed cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha in April.

Girls Probation House Ceremony
Fairfax County Office of Public Affairs
12000 Government Center Parkway, Suite 551
Fairfax, VA 22035-0065
Oct. 3, 2005
30th Anniversary Ceremony Held at
Fairfax County's Girls Probation House
"Fairfax County led the way when it established the Girls Probation House in 1975," said Judge Teena Grodner of the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court at a ceremony on Sept. 30 that marked the program's 30th anniversary. "It recognized what many have now come to realize — you can't take a boys program, paint it pink and call it a girls program."
More than 700 teenage girls have been part of the Girls Probation House program since it opened its doors in October 1975. A number of former residents and their families came back for the event and were joined by judges and county officials, including Hunter Mill District Supervisor Catherine Hudgins.
"The fact that you people won't give up on us is really important," said one former resident.
"It was hard work," said another former resident. "But it paid off. I'm thankful for the opportunity to come to GPH every day."
"We are proud of the positive influence we have had on the young women who have passed through the Girls Probation House program during the last 30 years," said director Mary Brantley. "Many still keep in touch."
Dennis Fee, the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court director of residential services, reminded that, "These are our children, our families. It is a measure of our community how we take care of them."
The community-based group home serves 12 residents at a time who range in age from 13 to 17, and stay for a period of three to six months. The family-oriented treatment program is for girls involved in chronic status offenses and/or delinquent behavior who are placed there by the court to change behavior that has resulted in their court involvement. This approach has been used as the model for Fairfax County's Boys Probation House, as well as for other local residential treatment facilities.
The highly structured program is designed to help residents gain a sense of independence, self-control and self-confidence so they can successfully return to their homes and communities and build healthy, productive futures. Its counselors emphasize personal responsibility through behavior modification in a positive peer culture, utilizing individual, group and intensive family counseling, and a weekly parent support group. Two teachers from Fairfax County Public Schools provide individualized instruction to help students achieve success in their educational experience.
For further information on the Girls Probation House, contact Mary Brantley at 703-830-2930, ext. 202, TTY 711.

DETROIT - We've been talking about this storm for a week now, and it'll be here tomorrow.
Here's the timetable and what you can expect:
Tonight we could see a bit of very light rain develop late tonight, with areas north of I-69 perhaps seeing a bit of wet snow.
Temperatures remain above freezing, so there will be no ice to worry about. At worst, some roads could be damp late tonight, but some of you could still have dry roads when you wake up.
A steadier, heavier rain will develop around lunchtime or a little after, and it should be a very rainy afternoon.
We hopefully will get between one-half and one inch of rain…we desperately need to replenish our soil moisture before the ground freezes for the winter. Remember that after the ground freezes, any rain we get doesn't soak into the ground. Thursday's rain is good news.
Temps should reach the upper 40s, even with the clouds and rain.
Thursday Night:
The rain will become lighter and more scattered.
In fact, it may even diminish to just drizzle for a while. Wet snowflakes should start mixing in sometime after midnight. Right now, it looks as if temps for most of southeast Michigan should remain above freezing Thursday night, so pavement should be wet for the start of the Friday morning rush hour.
Wind will increase, and we'll see periods of light snow. Right now, it doesn't appear that we'll see too much snow…perhaps as much as 1-2 inches in some areas.
Temps will fall to near or slightly below freezing either toward the end of rush hour or by mid-morning.
When that happens, bridges and overpasses could glaze over with some ice. You'll need to keep an eye on this if you'll be out driving at that time.
You'll also need to keep an eye on the wind, which will increase steadily and probably be gusting to near 40 mph. Obviously, this brings the risk for a few branches to bring down a few power lines, but wind like this isn't strong enough to flat-out snap power lines by itself. Any power outages will be widely scattered.
Despite the nasty day it'll become, remember that the is our best chance to get enough snow for a White Christmas.
Also remember that Michigan needs snow for many reasons…including restoring our Great Lakes low water levels, and winter tourism (those dollars are significant).
Northern Michigan:
The weather computer model is suggesting a good foot of snow for the northern lower peninsula, including Traverse City.
Skiing up north Very will be terrific this weekend!
We've got you covered on Justweather.com. Stay informed of any changes and keep an eye on the storm as it approaches your area.

Consumers are willing to pay more for locally grown food, according to a new survey.
About 70% of those polled said they would pay a premium for local, according to a survey conducted by Chicago-based management consulting firm A.T. Kearney.
The study also found that local is much more important than organic for most consumers, and that consumers trust national and big box chains less when it comes to local.
"Clearly, local food cannot be ignored as a growing segment for the grocery industry, and we've learned that larger-format food retailers still have much work to do to earn the trust of consumers in providing quality local food products," James Rushing, a Kearney partner and the study's leader. said in a summary of the results. "But the additional work and costs are worth the effort in the customer loyalty gained."
The survey, "Buying into the Local Food Movement," was conducted in November 2012. It included an online survey of 1,300 U.S. respondents, with an even split of men and women.
All respondents were over the age of 18, with household size, income and geography characteristics representative of the U.S. population as a whole. Sixty-nine percent of respondents were the primary grocery shopper in their household.
According to the study, 66% of consumers buy local because they believe it helps the local economy, 60% because it offers a better assortment of products and 45% because it's more healthful.
Almost 30% those polled said they would consider buying food elsewhere if their grocery store didn't carry local foods.
When it comes to which channels buyers of local trust most, farmers markets and farm stores rank first, followed by natural food markets, local food markets, national supermarkets, big box retailers and online retailers.
Local ranks higher than organic on contributions to sustainability efforts. About 68% of those polled said local food contributes positively, but only 50% said organic did.

Excedrin Tension Headache Side Effects
Generic Name: acetaminophen / caffeine
Note: This page contains information about the side effects of acetaminophen / caffeine. Some of the dosage forms included on this document may not apply to the brand name Excedrin Tension Headache.
For the Consumer
Applies to acetaminophen / caffeine: oral tablet, oral tablet disintegrating
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction while taking acetaminophen / caffeine: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
In rare cases, acetaminophen may cause a severe skin reaction that can be fatal. This could occur even if you have taken acetaminophen in the past and had no reaction. Stop taking this medicine and call your doctor right away if you have skin redness or a rash that spreads and causes blistering and peeling. If you have this type of reaction, you should never again take any medicine that contains acetaminophen.

dark urine, clay-colored stools; or
jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes).
Common side effects may include:
sleep problems (insomnia); or
feeling nervous, irritable, or jittery.
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects.
For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to acetaminophen / caffeine: oral tablet, oral tablet disintegrating
Acetaminophen: Rare (less than 0.1%): Severe and sometimes fatal dose dependent hepatitis in alcoholic patients, hepatotoxicity increased during fasting, hepatotoxicity from chronic acetaminophen usage[Ref]
Alcoholic patients may develop hepatotoxicity after even modest doses of acetaminophen. In healthy patients, approximately 15 grams of acetaminophen is necessary to deplete liver glutathione stores by 70% in a 70 kg person. However, hepatotoxicity has been reported following smaller doses. Glutathione concentrations may be repleted by the antidote N-acetylcysteine. One case report has suggested that hypothermia may also be beneficial in decreasing liver damage during overdose.
In a recent retrospective study of 306 patients admitted for acetaminophen overdose, 6.9% had severe liver injury but all recovered. None of the 306 patients died.
A 19 year old female developed hepatotoxicity, reactive plasmacytosis and agranulocytosis followed by a leukemoid reaction after acute acetaminophen toxicity.[Ref]
Caffeine: Rare (less than 0.1%): Fibrocystic breast disease[Ref]
In one study of the effects of caffeine, 634 women with fibrocystic breast disease (compared to 1066 women without the disease), the occurrence of fibrocystic breast disease was positively associated with average daily consumption of caffeine. Women who consumed 31 to 250 mg/day of caffeine were reported to have a 1.5 times increase in odds to have the disease. Women who consumed over 500 mg/day of caffeine were reported to have a 2.3 times increase in odds.[Ref]
One study has suggested that acetaminophen may precipitate acute biliary pain and cholestasis. The mechanism of this effect may be related to inhibition of prostaglandin and alterations in the regulation of the sphincter of Oddi.[Ref]
Acetaminophen: Rare (0.01% to 0.1%): Mostly seen in alcoholics and after overdose: Acute pancreatitis; Caffeine citrate: Very rare (less than 0.01%): Necrotizing enterocolitis in infants[Ref]
Acetaminophen: Rare (less than 0.1%): Acute tubular necrosis, interstitial nephritis; these effects are most often observed after overdose or after chronic abuse (often with multiple analgesics), or in association with acetaminophen-related hepatotoxicity[Ref]
Acute tubular necrosis usually occurs in conjunction with liver failure, but has been observed as an isolated finding in rare cases. A possible increase in the risk of renal cell carcinoma has been associated with chronic acetaminophen use as well.
A recent case control study of patients with end-stage renal disease suggested that long term consumption of acetaminophen may significantly increase the risk of end-stage renal disease particularly in patients taking more than two pills per day.[Ref]
Acetaminophen: Rare (less than 0.1%): Anaphylaxis, fixed drug eruptions[Ref]
Acetaminophen: Rare (less than 0.1%): Thrombocytopenia, methemoglobinemia resulting in cyanosis in acute overdose[Ref]
Acetaminophen: Rare (0.01% 0.1%): Erythematous skin rashes, bullous erythema, purpura fulminans; Very rare (less than 0.01%): Potentially fatal skin reactions: Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP)[Ref]
Acetaminophen: Very rare (less than 0.01%): Eosinophilic pneumonia[Ref]
Acetaminophen: Very rare (less than 0.01%): Hypotension[Ref]
Nervous system
Caffeine: Frequency not reported: Caffeinism (Caffeinism is a syndrome characterized by anxiety, restlessness, and sleep disorders similar to anxiety states), aggravation of PMS

Summer Thunderstorms Prompt Lightning Safety Week
June 9, 2008
News Highlights
- Lightning Safety Week, June 22-28.
- "When Thunder Roars, Go Indoors."
- Sign up for CEAN to stay updated about approaching thunderstorms.
More Information
Lightning Safety Week, June 22-28, will emphasize the dangers of lightning and how to prepare for and stay safe during summer thunderstorms.
In the United States, lightning kills an average of 62 people per year and every year, hundreds of lightning injuries are reported. Injuries can cause numerous long-term problems such as memory loss, attention deficits, sleep disorders, dizziness, stiffness in joints and depression.
At the first clap of thunder, the smartest decision is to go indoors or into an enclosed vehicle, as highlighted by the theme of Lightning Safety Week, "When Thunder Roars, Go Indoors." Remain inside until 30 minutes after the last clap of thunder.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) provides these safety tips:
- Monitor developing thunderstorms. The "Flash to Bang" method can help estimate your distance from lightning. If you see lightning, count the number of seconds until you hear thunder. Divide the number of seconds by five to get the distance in miles.
- If you can hear thunder, seek shelter. Even if it is not raining, lightning can strike within 10 miles of an area that is experiencing rain.
- Stop all outdoor activities at the first clap of thunder to give yourself time to move indoors. Leaders of outdoor events should have a plan for moving participants inside.
- If you cannot go indoors, squat low to the ground to make yourself the smallest target possible. Go to a low-lying area and stay away from trees, poles and metal objects.
- Avoid electrical equipment, plumbing, windows and concrete floors and walls when indoors.
- Call 9-1-1 immediately if someone has been struck by lightning. People who have been struck by lightning do not carry an electrical charge
Stay updated about approaching thunderstorms by signing up for Community Emergency Alert Network (CEAN), which sends emergency alerts and day-to-day updates about severe weather and traffic to registered users.
For more information about lightening safety, call the Fairfax County Office of Emergency Management at 703-324-2362, TTY 711.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 28/2/2013 (1637 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: On the weekend I got stood up by my married man, for the second time in two weeks. This time he said he couldn't come by at the last minute, because his wife asked him to come help her brother who needed another hand moving. My sweetie had told her he was going swimming for the afternoon. I fell on the couch and cried. I had music and food and wine for a beautiful Saturday afternoon. The strange thing was he called again that night, and there was a strange note of triumph in his voice, like he had managed to be a good boy to his wife. This is a new attitude. What is going on? He was absolutely thrilled the first time we finally got together at my house, not a whiff of guilt, either. -- What Happened? Downtown
Dear What: It happens in affairs, too -- the initial excitement wears off. Once you go from clandestine meetings to a domestic situation at your house where you are planning ahead and a big effort is made for the man who is cheating -- dinner, candles, the whole romantic thing -- he's back to marriage. Only now he has two women with expectations of him, not just wild sex. If it's a choice between the home situation and a new domestic situation, he thinks, why would he repeat himself? Stick with the woman who will give him continued access to his family and friends. Now that he knows you want him, maybe for your own husband, you have gone from "fun girl" to "hazard."
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I got sick in a movie theatre with my new girlfriend of four months by my side -- enough searing pain in my gut to warrant going to the hospital. She drove me there -- and then left me at the door to Emergency. I expected her to park the truck and come back. She never came. I texted her and she texted back she had gone over to a friend's house to play freakin' cards! I could have been dying. She just left me with a kidney stone killing me. She says it was "no big deaI." She said, "You didn't die. I left the movie and drove you there, didn't I?" What do you think, Miss L.? -- Shocked by Coldness, St. Vital
Dear Shocked: Why have you not cut her off already? She is "no big deal." Any other friend would have stayed with you. She doesn't even rank as friend. Dump her on her head.

Did you know?
In 1966, Edmond Lombardi from Applethwaite farm in Elgin created a preservative-free apple-juice beverage known as Appletiser.
The Elgin Valley Wine Route's great allies in producing high quality wines are altitude and a cool climate.
Amid a patchwork of farms, vineyards, and fynbos reserves, in the foothills of the Hottentots-Holland Mountains, the Elgin Valley Wine Guild's wine producers find the ideal terroir for growing noble grape varieties.
Variations in meso-climate, altitudes ranging from 300m to 600m above sea level, and soils ranging from Table Mountain sandstone to Bokkeveld shale combine to shape the character of the New World-style wines from this region.
On the wine route, cool south-easterly sea breezes follow cold winters with abundant rainfall.
In this elevated zone, extensive cloud cover during the growing season sees fruit ripen up to two months later than other Cape vineyards. In most instances, this extended time on the vine contributes to the harmonious balance of low pH, good natural acidity and ripe flavours found in Elgin wines.
Along the Elgin Valley Wine Route, visitors will find an abundance of award-wining Sauvignon Blancs, with the distinctive minerality, crisp acidity, freshness, and after some maturation, fruitiness typical of cool-climate whites.
Elgin's earthy, terroir-driven Pinot Noir and Syrah wines, with excellent ageing potential, are also grabbing awards and wine lovers' attention.
Additionally, Riesling, Semillon, Chardonnay, Viognier, Gewürztraminer, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and small experimental quantities of Grenache Noir are grown here.
Certain Elgin Wine Valley Guild estates, including Paul Cluver, Almenkerk, Elgin Vintners, Highlands Road, Oak Valley, Ross Gower and South Hill Vineyards, are open for public tastings.
Tastings at Arumdale, Belfield, Elgin Heights, Elgin Ridge, Elgin Valley Vineyards, Iona, Kingsbridge and Shannon Vineyards are by appointment only.
A leisurely self-drive meander along the Elgin Valley Wine Route begins outside the village of Grabouw at Oak Valley Estate. Off the N2, on the Viljoenshoop road, visit Elgin Vintners, a partnership of 6 dedicated grape growers, and the new Almenkerk Winery.
Return along the Viljoenshoop road, and turn right into Highlands Road. Here, you'll reach Highlands Road Winery, which has a superb deli and offers light lakeside lunches.
Off Highlands Road, in Valley Road, sample Ross Gower Wines's Pinot Noir Brut, Elgin's 1st Cap Classique. Farther along, South Hill Vineyards has an art gallery and fine dining restaurant.
Your final stop on Valley Road is the multi-award-winning estate of Paul Cluver. Its Weisser Riesling Noble Late Harvest is a sweet ending to your Elgin Valley Wine Route adventure.

Quote:using the battlefield as a qualifier:credible lineage... Military teaching serious students who have fighting spirit... soldiers fighting for their lives. supported by a community... brothers in arms.yes, that fits all criteria. plus, veterans of war have battlefield experience. Looks like we solved the 'whats the best Martial Art' question. The Military of any country seems to have the best Martial Artists. I bet this test holds true even moreso the further back in time we consider.The question is...which battlefield do we chose to train for? what is the nature of the battlefield in our civilian communities?

Three Things a Person With Special Needs Can Do To Help Themselves Find a Job
Here are three things a person with special needs can do to help them land a job.
Here are three things a person with special needs can do to help them land a job.
UPDATED August: A list of lawyers, educational consultants, therapists, and other professional special needs advocates on Long Island, NY.
Parents of kids with special needs join other advocates to push for an end to the 'R-word.'
Self-Direction Services (SDS), a New York State-funded program for children with special needs, offers parents funding for services of their own choosing.
Is a mom who ceaselessly pushes for her child, who hounds the school with emails and questions a bully, or just doing what she needs to for her kid? A local mother and former teacher weighs in.
Medicaid waivers offer similar benefits of Medicaid, but with certain requirements waived. Here are the benefits of Medicaid waivers for those with special needs, the application process, and why you should apply now.
The Child Mind Institute, an organization dedicated to transforming mental health care for children, hosts its annual Speak Up for Kids campaign and encourages people everywhere to share stories about mental health issues during #SpeakUpSundays in May.
Though they want independence, most individuals on the spectrum require some form of live-in assistance, severely narrowing options for alternative housing. The ABLE Act aims to ease financial strains faced by adults with disabilities.
Gloria Corsino, mother of two boys on the autism spectrum and parent member and president of District 75 Community Education council, gives her top 10 tips on advocating for her children with disabilities to ensure a better tomorrow.
Having a current child ID kit enables parents to provide immediate and essential information for the search, recover, and rescue of a missing child. Follow these tips to build a DNA kit for your child.
Plenty has been written about teaching children to be more tolerant of their peers with special needs, but what about reaching unsympathetic adults? How to handle those intrusive questions and ignorant comments, whether on the playground or, ahem, at a family gathering.
TEACH Consulting, a resource for children and parents in Nassau and Suffolk counties, now offers its tutoring services in the summer months. The center offers educational advocacy and tutoring services for children with special needs, as well as The Wilson Reading Program. All tutors are certified in general education and special education.
Children with learning disabilities can be granted extra time for test taking to accommodate their needs. Rachel Asher, Esq. and Julie Gaughran, Esq., of Asher, Gaughran LLP offer tips to make sure those accommodations are honored, fair treatment for children with learning disabilities, and how to become a better advocate.
Children with ASD and other special needs diagnoses are prime targets for bullying. "Bully," a powerful film now out in theaters, and the book tie-in reveal compelling research and survey results.
The National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD) recently released a shocking new survey of nearly 2,000 American adults (4.4% margin of error), showing that Americans lack a basic understanding of learning disabilities (LDs). We present the new information about causes and treatments for LDs, and rights for kids who have them.
Westchester County teen Nick Lombardi has spent the past eight years advocating for autism awareness, his efforts reaching local and national families alike and benefiting Autism Speaks. And it all started with a trip to the mall.
Apps for Children with Special Needs, a thorough and easy-to-follow website, makes it easier to know which apps are worth your money—and your child's attention. (Discounted iPads, too.)
It is a daunting task for parents to work through a child's disability. They must arm themselves with knowledge and information in order to be the best advocate for their child. One mother shares her story as well as some advice.
Autism Speaks' third annual Autism Speaks to Young Professionals summer gala, held in NYC, raised more than $66,000 for autism research and advocacy. The funds will help raise awareness and funds on behalf of individuals living with autism.
On April 16, Jon Singer and his daughter Rebecca, along with friends and family, set out on a 3,500-mile cross-country trek from New York to California to raise money and awareness for special needs advocacy.
A learning disability diagnosis can usher in a challenging time for your family. But understanding the law and what your child is entitled to can spell success for the future.
The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene funds nine Family Resource Centers (FRCs) throughout New York City, which opened last fall and now offer a full menu of services to local families.
Parents of children with autism and other special needs must prepare in advance for their kids' well-being and long-term care. Consult our guide for advice from special needs experts on the services and options available to your child after high school and beyond.
If you have a child with a suspected developmental delay, foreign terms like CPSE, EI, OSC, IEP are likely to work their way into your vocabulary. Decoding these acronyms may seem like learning a new language, an accurate translation may hold the key to advocating for your child.
When Jodi Liston's children, were classified as emotionally disabled, she enlisted the help of an advocate to help her navigate the system and get the services her children needed. But it was no simple task. After a long and arduous process, 17 years of research, volunteer work at Legal Services of the Hudson Valley, and assisting other families struggling with similar issues, Liston, decided to start her own firm. The two-year-old Liston Advocates helps the growing number of parents who are following similar paths to get suitable services for their children.

BITKOM is once again responsible for organising the eSkills for Jobs campaign in Germany. As an organisation representing companies in digital sector, BITKOM is harnessing the vast network of STEM-related initiatives in Germany to communicate the connection between eSkills, job opportunities and economic success.
To find out more about eSkills initiatives in your country, including information about jobs and training opportunities, please visit the national website:
"Es geht darum, die digitale Teilhabe und Zukunftsfähigkeit für alle zu sichern und auszubauen. Die Digitalisierung wird nur gelingen, wenn sie neue individuelle Chancen kreiert und die Zuversicht wächst, dass sie das Leben der Menschen sowohl beruflich als auch privat verbessert." Thorsten Dirks, Präsident Bitkom e.V. CEO und Vorstandsvorsitzender Telefónica Deutschland Holding AG
"It's about securing and extending digital participation and sustainability for each and everyone. Digitization will only succeed if it creates new individual opportunities and a growing confidence that peoples lives will professionally and personally improve."

Digital skills play an important role in the national education policy. The Coalition Agreement (November 2013), which describes the main lines of work of the federal government emphasizes the importance of broad-based digital literacy and also calls decidedly a modern computer science lessons already in primary education. BITKOM supports this aspect of bilateral talks with the state governments responsible for general education.
Facts & Figures for selected areas:
1. School: Virtually all schools have Internet-enabled classrooms and a basic digital equipment. But the use lags behind the possibilities, 40% of all teachers with no previous training in the field of digital media in recent years.
2. Vocational Training: The dual IT occupations are a central component of the junior staff security. 2014 is the number of IT trainees in total around 41,000. Nearly 200,000 graduates of IT professions have been trained since the late 90s.
3. University: in 2013 was attended by some 33,000 young people in Germany on a computer science degree. Which is an increase of 10,000 compared to the year 2003. However, problems are the high dropout rate (approx. 50%) and the low proportion of women (25% of first-year students).
4. Labour Market: The ICT labor market is a job machine. 2014 around 928,000 people employed in the ICT sector, 2009 there were only 835,000. The skills shortage is currently estimated by BITKOM with 35,000 vacancies.
For the digital economy, the Federal Government presented a "Digital Agenda". In the field of education and training are particularly addressed:
Under the National IT Summit training issues are addressed vertärkt. Based on initiatives around the theme "Industry 4.0" (eg Academy Cub) is currently preparing a "qualification initiative". In the long term it is about IT-related competencies in the entire width of the vocational education and training.
Last but not least in 2015 the "Year of the digital society" (as part of the funded by the Education and Science Ministry Science Years). With numerous events the general public is made aware of opportunities and prospects of digital life and education worlds. Including the project "Everyone can be programmed. Start Coding "IT skills are promoted in the strict sense!.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/12/2012 (1719 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I could have forgiven my wife for getting lonely and having anonymous sex with some guy she met in a bar, but she slept with a guy I know. He's not a friend, but he works with me at the store. She felt the burning need to confess this sin to me about a month ago, and now going to work is absolute hell. I just want to pile-drive him whenever I see him looking at me. Sometimes I think he's laughing at me. But, he seems real nervous around me the last week so I figure she might have warned him she's told me and he should watch his back. I know I shouldn't be asking this, but do you think the cops would look past one hard punch in the parking lot? It would make me feel a lot better and he knows he deserves it. -- Going Nuts at Work, Winnipeg
Dear Going Nuts: While assault is a crime, cheating is not. That means you could get charged and found guilty and he still gets away with "sleeping" with your wife. How about you take this up, in a serious way with your wife? Insist she go to relationship counselling with a view to resolving the problems between you or getting out. Warning: Don't tell her you want to fight him! There are a sub-section of women who think that two men fighting over them is a big feather in the cap. Is this the kind of woman you're with? Then you have nothing but pain ahead, unless you dump her on her feather.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I'm crying half the time because my kids won't talk to me. They are mad at me for cheating on their father and leaving our home. The boys live with their dad and he has inspired them to hate me with a passion. I think the youngest one would come around if I could talk to him, as there's a lot he doesn't know. For instance, their father would pick a fight and beat me up if he was drunk and the kids were at school. I formed a relationship with a tough, but sympathetic, loving man I knew from before, who knows my kids from hockey and likes them. I am happy with my new man and well-protected from my ex-husband, but I am longing for my children. Should I tell them the whole story or would that makes things worse? -- Bad Mommy, Elmwood
Dear Bad Mom: You can't make things worse. Hating their mother is a bad situation and it's killing them inside. Since they have no way of understanding why you left, they only see their father's hurt and anger. You might as well tell them the whole story. While you're at it, apologize for breaking up the family and leaving them with an angry, violent man. Tell them the door is open to come and live with you if they want to. They will refuse at first, but give it time. How would this new man feel about that? Time to find out.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: Three doors down from me is a bunch of low-class rednecks, and their spawn, who are driving me crazy. Their boys are all teenagers who squeal around all night and they have loud parties and there's kids spilling out on the snow and beer bottles and roaches on the curbs. They keep us up late at three or four nights a week because the parents work nights with some company. My wife and I didn't want to call the cops because we don't want trouble with our neighbours. But the other day, my husband had a word with the oldest son about the noise, and he said, "F off old man, and mind your own business or you'll be sorry." What's next -- calling in the cops? These kids are tough and we are afraid of revenge. The neighbours right next to them complained last summer and they got all kinds of stuff thrown into their yard including a bag of excrement on their step. Please help. -- Redneck Trouble, Winnipeg
Dear Redneck Trouble: Three doors down is a long ways away to be suffering like this. Next time this gang is disturbing the peace with a roustabout in the front year, call the police and don't worry about reprisals -- any one of six neighbours could have made that call. Don't go over there in person, ever. Reasoning with unreasonable people is a waste of time. But doctors say daily upset with neighbours can cause high blood pressure and other stress-related problems, so you must do things to protect yourself. In the spring, build a grudge fence and get them out of your eyesight. Pyramidal cedars can block sound as well if you buy them big enough and plant them close enough. Just do your best to shut these people out completely. Anybody else out there got ideas to help with horrible neighbours? Please write in, and we'll publish best ideas in an upcoming column.

The 13 Leading Water Experts
For our first-ever Blue Issue, the ELLE team decided to shoot cover girl Drew Barrymore (mostly) underwater at a sunny private villa in Beverly Hills. The actress, producer, and director arrived with her dog, Flossy, in relaxed Current/Elliott jeans, a vintage T-shirt, and an oversize cream cardigan from eco-queen Stella McCartney. With newly blond tresses, Barrymore went straight for the racks of Armani Privé and Jean Paul Gaultier couture and a pair of kelly green patent leather Bruno Frisoni heels, all of which were bound for the house's pool. While treading quite fashionable water, Barrymore revealed she'd also recently shot a submerged love scene for her directorial debut, Whip It!, starring Ellen Page, which comes out later this year.

When one thinks of the great wine regions of Italy, it is arguably Tuscany that would first come to mind. Tuscan wines embody the hilly, sun-kissed terroir, producing generous and fleshy red wines and a few notable white wines.
The dominant red grape in Tuscan wines is Sangiovese. From Chanti in a traditional fiasco (straw basket), to the majestic wines of Chianti Classico, Bolgheri, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, and the king of all Tuscan wines Brunello di Montalcino, Sangiovese found a home to achieve perfect ripeness, flavor, and character.
Another great wine of Tuscany is the wines we refer to as "Super Tuscans". These wines combine the skill of Italian winemaking with internationally planted grape varieties, such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. These grapes also thrive in the soil and climate of Tuscany.
