text: By K. Cope and B. DvorakUniversity of Nebraska-Lincoln Every day people use water not only for drinking and cooking, but for bathing, cleaning and many other purposes. However, the amount used by families in their homes can vary because people have different water use habits and a variety of fixtures and appliances installed in their homes. Water-using fixtures and appliances (such as faucets, toilets, showers, clothes washers, dishwashers) designed in the past two decades typically use less water than older devices, and water-using devices labeled as "ENERGY STAR" or "Water Sense" are the most water efficient. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the American Water Works Association collected water use data from over 1,000 homes in different North American cities. They found a wide range of water use rates, depending on whether or not families addressed leaks, how efficient the fixtures and appliances were in the home, and whether or not families applied conservation practices. The largest amount of water use was from bathing, followed by the kitchen faucet and toilet. These were followed by the clothes washing machine, leaks, and other uses. The fixtures in this scenario were over 20 years old and had higher flow rates than newer more efficient fixtures. Leaks were most commonly due to the toilet, followed by faucets. Alternatively, a family that fixed leaks and used the most efficient fixtures and appliances (meeting the Water Sense/ENERGY STAR standards) but maintained the same water use pattern (e.g., same frequency and length of appliance use) saw significant reductions. The total water consumption for a family of four under these conditions was about 176 gallons of water per day, which is less than half the water use as the first example. Further reductions in water use can be realized as the water use patterns are changed. What can you do to be more water-efficient in your home? • Identify and repair water leaks. • Change water use practices. Take shorter showers, flush the toilet less often, do fewer and fuller loads of laundry or dishes. • Add aerators to faucets to reduce water flow while maintaining wetting ability. • Replace older fixtures and appliances (especially toiles and washing machines) with more efficient, up-to-date versions. Saving water in your home is important. Changing water use practices will cost nothing and may even save money as less water might be heated and used. Other conservation methods like taking care of leaks or adding an aerator to your faucet are fairly inexpensive. Water is a finite resource, and it is important that we work to conserve it, so it will be available for future use.

"It kind of felt like my eyes just rolled in the back of my head and I got really dizzy and I really couldn't think clearly," Rob said.
That's what Rob remembers from eighth grade when he played quarterback and was hit by a violent blindside sack.
"I took a couple days off from school but then I went back, and I was struggling for about a week," Rob says.
Sure enough, a few weeks later Rob took another sack from his blindside. This concussion wasn't as bad as the first but the symptoms lasted longer.
"My memory was kind of fuzzy and sometimes it actually like hurt to think. I still don't know the final score of that game," Rob says.
This time, he took a year off from football to let his brain heal. Now he's back on both the football and baseball fields, but playing a smart game.
"The symptoms are painful and, if they're not treated correctly, there's potential that it could hurt you for the rest of your life," Rob says.
Alex Spectorsky and Leland Whitehouse both played lacrosse and both were sidelined because of concussions.
"I managed to pick up two concussions during football season and one during the winter lacrosse season," Leland says.
Weeks after the last one, he sustained another during a lacrosse game. But this one was different.
"The fourth one was particularly scary because the actual impact wasn't that strong. I just kind of bumped his chin but I don't remember for about two hours on either end of the thing," Leland says.
Alex received all of his concussions snowboarding. The third happened during a national competition last November when he lost his balance during a trick.
"I cracked my goggles and part of my helmet and I blacked out for a little bit. When I got up, I knew something was wrong and the rest of the day I really don't remember," Alex said.
In fact, Alex says he doesn't remember that two-week period he was in Colorado for the competition.
His symptoms aren't improving so he may be forced to give up sports he loves, both soccer and lacrosse, permanently.
"The doctors didn't want me playing because of the chance if I get another one, I won't fully recover," Alex says.
Leland understands Alex's dilemma. He had to quit sports because of his concussions and find a new hobby.
"I fish more, I play guitar, I tried debate for a little while," Leland said.
Leland's decision to quit sports may have saved his future. He'll enter Yale University in the fall.
"I'm going to be using my brain for the rest of my life," Leland says.

Same sex marriage, a controversial issue on both the federal and state levels now becomes a burning topic for one county here in the east.
People in Greenville spoke out Monday night in front of the Pitt County Board of Commissioners about same sex marriage.
County Commissioner, David Hammond, urged fellow board members to adopt a resolution opposing same sex marriage.
This resolution is in support of state lawmakers proposing an amendment to North Carolina's constitution that would define marriage as a union between a man and woman.
If passed, the amendment would be decided by voters and put on the November ballot.
That very reason is why Commissioner Hammond, says Pitt County should take a strong stance against same sex marriage now.
No decision was made by the County Commissioners to adopt Hammond's proposed resolution.

Women treated with radiation for breast cancer are more likely to develop heart problems later, even with the lower doses used today, troubling new research suggests. The risk comes from any amount of radiation, starts five years after treatment and lasts for decades, doctors found.
Patients shouldn't panic; radiation has improved cancer survival, and that is the top priority, doctors say. The chance of experiencing a radiation-induced heart problem is fairly small for most women.
According to the study, a 50-year-old woman with no cardiovascular risk factors has a 1.9 percent chance of dying of heart disease before she turns 80. Radiation treatment for breast cancer would increase that risk by 2.4 percent to 3.4 percent, depending on how much radiation hits the heart.
Women also can cut their risk by controlling their weight, cholesterol and blood pressure.

Still, the study shows that the potential harm from radiation runs deeper than many medical experts may have realized, especially for women who have cardiac-risk factors such as diabetes.
Some chemotherapy drugs are known to harm the heart muscle, but the new study shows radiation can hurt arteries, making them prone to harden and clog and cause a heart attack. Women who receive both treatments have both types of risk.
The study "will raise the antenna" about the need to do more to prevent this, said Dr. David Slosky, a cardiologist at Vanderbilt University, one of the growing number of medical centers with special "cardio-oncology" programs for cancer survivors.
With today's lower radiation doses, "it is less of a problem, but it is not going away," he said.
The artery-related problems that the study tracked may be just the most visible of many risks because radiation also can cause valve, rhythm and other heart troubles, said Dr. Javid Moslehi. He is co-director of the cardio-oncology program at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston.
Like cancer, heart disease develops after "a number of strikes that go against you," such as high cholesterol, he said. "The radiation is just another hit."
He wrote an editorial that appears with the study in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine. British government agencies and private foundations paid for the research.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women; more than 1 million cases are diagnosed each year worldwide. About 3 million women in the United States have been treated for it. Although radiologists try to spare the heart, it still gets some of the dose, especially when the left breast is treated. When it's confined to the breast, most women get surgery to remove the lump, followed by several weeks of radiation in attempt to kill lingering cancer cells and sometimes hormone or chemotherapy. Radiation can damage the linings of blood vessels and scar the heart muscle.
What heart-disease risks come from what specific doses isn't known. The new study, led by Dr. Sarah Darby of the University of Oxford in England, sought to measure that.
It involved 2,168 breast-cancer patients from Sweden and Denmark diagnosed between 1958 and 2001 and treated with radiation. They included 963 women who had a heart attack, needed an artery-opening procedure or died of heart artery-related causes in the years after their radiation treatment. The other 1,205 were similar patients who did not develop these heart problems.
Researchers compared the women's radiation exposures using gray units, a measure of how much is absorbed by the body.
Most women treated today get doses that result in 1 to 5 gray units reaching the heart, more if the cancer is in the left breast. Patients in the study got an average of five gray units; the doses ranged from 1 to 28.
The risk of a heart attack, need for an artery-opening procedure or dying of heart disease rose about 7 percent per gray unit and no "safe" level was seen. The risk started to rise within five years of treatment and continued for at least 20 years.
What to do?
Don't forgo radiation if it's recommended because it is lifesaving and doctors increasingly have ways to shield the heart from exposure, said Dr. Bruce Haffty, associate director of the Cancer Institute of New Jersey.
Dr. Lori Mosca, the director of preventive cardiology at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center, who was not involved in the study, said the findings meant that a history of breast irradiation should be added to the list of risk factors for heart disease and taken into consideration by all doctors who are treating such patients.
But she and other experts also said the results needed to be verified because the study was not a controlled experiment but was based on an analysis of records and estimates of radiation exposure to the heart.

Family Dollar Stores Inc. (FDO-N) reported a better-than-expected quarterly profit as sales rose during the holiday season and it sold more food.
The second-largest dollar-store chain behind Dollar General Corp. (DG-N) has been adding hundreds of food items to its stores and giving many of the stores makeovers as it works to appeal to lower-income shoppers focused on buying essentials.
Family Dollar's net profit rose to $136.4 million US, or $1.15 a share, in its fiscal second quarter ended February 25, from $123.2 million, or 98 cents a share, a year earlier. Analysts were looking for $1.13 a share, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Sales at the chain, where most merchandise costs less than $10, rose 8.6 percent to $2.46 billion, in line with analyst estimates.
Sales at stores open at least a year, or same-store sales, rose 4.5 percent, versus the company's forecast of 5 percent.
Sales were once again driven by consumables, such as food and other basic goods. Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, slipped to 34.9 percent from 35.7 percent a year earlier, due largely to stronger sales of consumables, which typically carry lower margins than items like clothing and toys.
For the full year, the company said it expects earnings of $3.55 to $3.75 per share. It previously forecast $3.50 to $3.75.
Last week, Dollar General posted higher-than-expected quarterly earnings and sales and said it expected that momentum to continue this year. Its same-store sales rose 6.5 percent.

I just love the cream and gold combination! I think these two colors makes everything so classy, and refreshing. I purchased this cream peplum top a while back, and I'm in love everything about it. The fabric is beautiful, and the peplum style adds a classic touch to everything I pair it with. I pinned my hair up for a different look (since I've been wearing head wraps a lot lately) to step away from the usual "Afrocentric Paola" look. My pants were purchased two years ago from Zara. When I first bought them, I thought they would be one of those articles of clothing I would just wear for one occasion, but they remained a staple in my wardrobe. I have worn them in so many different ways. They're a lot more versatile than they look, and they are so much fun! I still receive compliments on them.

Love this look. So feminine. Looks like you smell of powdery-smelling perfume. Those pants are EVERYTHING!
haha, I like that! "looks like you smell of powdery-smelling perfume." it's funny how one can look like what they smell like.
Your hair looks great! + Love those pants + Those sunglasses are the jam!

Ok, it's no secret that James and I love Ybor and go there OFTEN… so what great surprise when we found out that a new restaurant had gone into the beautiful old building in Centro Ybor! Jason Fernandez, owner of Bernini's and other hot spots around 7th Ave, has definitely done it once again with Carne Chophouse! Carne is located at 1536 E. 7th Avenue…you can't get more into the heart of Ybor City than that folks!
We had a few friends with us so we could sample as much food as possible! Sitting down, the kind server asked us for our drink order and after hearing they had $2 Finlandia Martini's from 4-7during happy hour JUST like another great restaurant in Ybor City…ahem…Bernini's…without hesitation we ordered some Funtini's. After browsing the menu for what seems like forever, we decided that we wanted to take advantage of the steaks on the menu, I mean, after all it IS a "Chophouse", their logo is a COW!
The perk of the steak section is that each comes with a generous salad or soup of your choice, a parmesan crusted Roma tomato and a side. What we also loved about Carne's menu were the prices. The different cuts of steak available weren't over-priced! I like this place already and food hasn't even come yet!
I opted for the Split Pea Soup instead of salad which was excellent and in my opinon wise on my part. Often I've found that people frown upon a delicious Split Pea because they think it looks like baby vomit… well green appearance aside, this special family recipe was delightful indeed! I couldn't help but gawk as the "side" salads came out. There was nothing small about them and the presentation was fabulous as each was served on a stunning pewter charger! Yet another wise detail – these pewter dishes will tolerate heat, keeping your steak warm or maintain a colder temperature for that delicious salad!
I had to get what I know best, and that would be the Filet! It was cooked perfectly, SO tender! Another component I loved were the skinny onion strings on top of each steak. They did a great job accenting the steak's flavor! James got the Prime Rib, which he really enjoyed and couldn't finish because there was JUST SO MUCH!
Our friends got the Chimichurri Sirloin which was very flavorful and the Shrimp Scampi which had the key elements a perfect shrimp scampi should have! After several bites and martini's later, just as we are about to throw in the towel, our friend insisted on trying dessert! Our server raved about the cheesecake, so that was that. As you can see from the picture, it looked (and was) excellent!
Carne Chophouse has that old Ybor feel with a modern steakhouse charm. They have a private banquet area for private parties and a secluded bar for all of your drinking pleasures! So beat the crowds and check out Carne while it's still new and the word is just starting to spread about this delicious steakhouse!

Pretty Little Liars Spoiler: Will Holden Return in Season 3?
Pretty Little Liars Season 2 ended with the four main girls finding out who "A" is, but there was one mystery that we are still curious about: What is Holden's deal? Well, if Marlene King is to be believed, we might be getting some more Holden in Season 3.
Holden (Shane Coffey) was introduced in the second half of Season 2 as an old friend of Aria's who had recently returned to Rosewood from Portugal. At the time, Holden agreed to fake date Aria so that she could secretly meet Ezra without her parents finding out. However, we all grew suspicious about why exactly Holden was agreeing to help Aria, and what exactly he was doing during their fake dates.
Holden eventually explained that he was secretly going to martial arts competitions, but we never really bought his story. How did every date location that Aria picked out happen to be near a martial arts competition? And, if Holden was secretly going to competitions, why did Aria also find him hanging out at an arcade during one of their outings? So many questions!
Apparently we aren't the only ones who are curious. A fan asked Marlene on Twitter over the weekend if we would see Holden in Season 3 and she said it is a "a possibility" and that she is "discussing it." Hmm...
If Holden does come back, maybe his mystery will be more fully explained, and maybe we will discover if he has any connections to the "A" team. Either way, we want Holden back!
Catch an all-new Pretty Little Liars when Season 3 premieres on Tuesday, June 5 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC Family.

This undated artist impression supplied by Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority shows the Christchurch downtown projects planned for a new-look after the New Zealand city was reduced to rubble by an earthquake in 2011. Essentially given a blank slate, government planners on Monday, July 30, 2012, unveiled a blueprint for the city that replaces office towers with green spaces, urban apartments and innovation "hubs" they say will give the city the feel of a college campus. Under the plan, the city will be smaller, the buildings lower in height and constructed to higher earthquake standards. (AP Photo/CERA) EDITORIAL USE ONLY, NEW ZEALAND OUT

Every year we have the opportunity to reflect deeply on the closing year and plan for the New Year. It is like a renewal of life, part of the cyclical changes in our natural world.
For those in the Northern Hemisphere it comes in the darkest of the seasons, and for those below the equator the time is lightest and brightest. Either way, it is a change and signal to look within and perhaps rearrange priorities.
All over the globe New Year's celebrations take place. People everywhere literally feel the change in the air. And if you go deep into your spiritual self you'll probably be aware of the uplifting excitement New Year's carries.
This is a meditation to use in the New Year or any time you have a change about to happen.
To begin: Go to your favorite quiet meditation spot. If this is at a meditation altar light a new white candle to symbolize the beginning of the year to come. If you like, burn some incense. A plant or flowers are a nice addition to your altar.
Sit on your cushion on the floor with your back straight but not rigid. Balance your weight front to back and side to side so you feel steady. Fold your legs in and clasp your hands in your lap or rest them palms up or palms down on your thighs.
Alternately, sit on a chair and keep your back straight, soles of feet planted firmly on the floor. Clasp your hands in your lap or place them palms up or palms down on your thighs.
Close your eyes and begin breathing evenly such as: breathe in one count; breathe out one count; breathe in one count; continue in this even regular pattern for at least one minute. Let go of thinking of the numbers, but keep up the rhythmic pattern for the duration of the meditation.
Breath is a tie between the body and mind. Even, regular breathing calms the mind and relaxes the body, allowing us time to concentrate on the topic for this meditation, or to listen to the peaceful vibration centered under the crown of your head. Various religious faiths refer to this experience as the Holy Spirit, the Holy Comforter, Aum, Om, Holy Naam, the Amen. Different names, same experience.
Take at least five minutes to reflect on the benefits of transition, how change will impact your life in the coming year. Follow this by an appreciation for at least one person in your life. Then send thoughts of appreciation and care outward to the entire creation.
Finish your meditation with a few moments of silence. Take a deep breath, stand and stretch and go on with your day. If you keep a meditation journal, now is the time to record new insights or ideas.
I invite you to join me in a daily group cyber meditation for personal and planetary peace. Click the article here to read about it.

Hi Everyone!
In this week's Celebrity Makeup feature I'm bringing up the fabulous Hannah Montana girl, Miley Cyrus. I like Miley Cyrus hair styles/looks and about her makeup she keeps it chic, flawless and stunning!
Miley Cyrus makeup is vibrant and so chic! She has some soft rose to pink to coral kind of blush in most of her looks. No freckles and no blemishes is visible, she has a wonderful flawless makeup for every red carpet look.
Take a look on her eye-makeup, it's dashing! She has defined eye-liner look with some beautiful highlighting false lashes. The eye brows are well-defined with lovely shape. I love her eye-makeup look which attracts me at the first place!
I don't know why she doesn't try any neon or bright lips! She has rosy or soft pink lips in her most of the pictures. She looks fabulous in red lips with deep winged false lashes in the first picture here. Oh! I'm a fan of Miley Cyrus hair styles which are simply rocking. She has wavy curls, wavy beach curls, messy braids, and messy bun hair styles in most of her looks.
Hope you enjoyed the looks :)
Which is your favorite Look or Makeup of Miley Cyrus?

USM's Hrapmann Named Lou Groza Award Semifinalist
Oct. 29, 2010
Southern Miss junior Danny Hrapmann (New Orleans, La.) has been named one of 20 semifinalists for the Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award presented by the Discover Orange Bowl and released by The Palm Beach County Sports Commission Friday morning.
Hrapmann has converted 16-of-17 field goals and all 24 extra-point tries in 2010 and saw a string of 17-straight field goal attempts snapped at Memphis two weeks ago that dated back to the 2009 New Orleans Bowl. Earlier this season against East Carolina, he established a school record with five field goals earning Conference USA Special Teams Player of the Week honors as well as a Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award Star of the Week.
The list of semifinalists includes seven kickers who earned the honor last season, including 2009 Lou Groza Award winner Kai Forbath of UCLA and finalist Blair Walsh of Georgia.
Semifinalists will be voted on by all Division I head coaches and sports information directors, along with national, regional and local football writers and others who will select the three (3) finalists. These finalists will be honored at the Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Awards Banquet on Dec. 7 in West Palm Beach, Fla. The winner will be announced live on the nationally televised Home Depot ESPNU College Football Awards Show on the evening of Dec. 9.
The award is named in honor of one of the all-time great kickers in football history, Lou Groza. Groza played 21 seasons for the Cleveland Browns setting numerous franchise records, including most games played, most points scored, and an amazing 107 consecutive games in which he scored a point. The 1,608 career points he scored is still a Browns' franchise record, and he ranks third all-time in league. Groza was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1974.
Past Groza finalists include current NFL kickers, Nate Kaeding, Sebastian Janikowski, Mike Nugent, Jason Elam, Mason Crosby and Graham Gano.

I just found out last night that I get Universal Sports on my basic Houston Comcast package (channel 319). I figured I'd have to try and catch it online. Let's hope they don't cut off the ends of stages like VS did with the Tour of California. :-)
I thought today's TTT coverage was pretty good. I don't remember who the announcers were, but I thought they were good. Not Paul and Phil good, but better than the blonde headed guy they had on for the Tour last year.
(I was really pulling for Garmin though. )

Benefitfocus will be expanding internationally in the next year, and Canada is the company's first targeted foreign market, CEO Shawn Jenkins said today.
|Benefitfocus CEO Shawn Jenkins
Jenkins' remarks came during the keynote address for the company's yearly One Place meeting. The Daniel Island-based tech firm builds online platforms used by companies and insurance carriers to manage benefits.
By next year's One Place, Jenkins said, the company hopes to be showing video of associates in Canada as it unrolls a platform built for that market. In other markets, Jenkins said, Benefitfocus will look at forming relationships with companies that are similar and will listen to the needs of its U.S.-based customers, some of which have locations across the world.
"We are forming some on-purpose partnerships," Jenkins said. "We think this is a good way to extend the platform and learn as we go."
During the event, the company also unveiled the 2014 edition of its HR InTouch marketplace, which allows users to manage and select benefits online, and iPhone and Android apps for HR InTouch.
Jenkins also highlighted BenefitFocus' accomplishments during 2012, which included opening a San Francisco office and a Design and Engineering Building on its Daniel Island campus.
The company has also seen growth year-over-year. In 2006, the company had 2.5 million consumers using its platforms, and as of last year, Benefitfocus had 20 million consumers signed up.
Jenkins also ran through a list of new companies that are using his company's platform, and they include Fender, Continental Tire, Dannon, the city of Portland and UnderArmour.
"In some cases it's sort of mind boggling the growth that we've experienced," Jenkins said. "We really feel like together we're just getting started."

Analyst: Microsoft forfeiting $2.5B a year by keeping Office off Apple's iPad
Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is leaving billions of dollars on the table by not offering a full version of its Office productivity suite optimized for Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPad, according to a new estimate from Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Holt.
In a note to investors, Holt estimates that Microsoft sold fewer than 1 million Windows-based tablets in 2012 and will struggle to capture 10 percent of the tablet market this year, especially given reports that longtime Windows partner Hewlett-Packard will turn to Google's (NASDAQ:GOOG) Android to power its forthcoming mobile devices. Holt also calculates that three to four times as many Mac users (between 30 and 40 percent) install paid versions of Office on their desktops as Windows PC users (10 to 15 percent) do.
Assuming a similar 30 percent adoption rate across an installed base of more than 200 million iPads, Holt estimates that Office for iPad priced at $60 would generate more than $2.5 billion in additional Microsoft revenues in 2014, even after Apple claims its standard 30 percent App Store sales cut. "The math is compelling," Holt concludes, "and may drive MSFT to move Office."
Citing sources familiar with ongoing negotiations between the two companies, AllThingsD reported late last year that discussions to bring Office to iOS stalled over how Microsoft and Apple will share proceeds. Insiders say Microsoft is balking at giving Apple 30 percent of revenues from Office-branded, native iOS apps allowing users to access Word, PowerPoint and Excel documents on the go: Because Office is a perennial cash cow, Microsoft does not want to hand over such a large chunk of its profits. Microsoft also contends that Office's value and utility will bring significant benefits to the iOS platform as a whole, meriting an adjustment to the 70/30 split.
Apple has declined to comment on talks with Microsoft, but indicates it will not bend on App Store revenue sharing. "Apple provides customers and developers the largest selection and safest way to discover apps with our curated App Store," Apple spokesperson Tom Neumayr told AllThingsD in December. "We've designed our rules to be fair and consistent for every developer. Free apps and services are distributed for free, paid apps and services provide a revenue share to Apple. We've paid out over $6.5 billion to our developer community who have created over 700,000 apps."
Asked about Office for iPad at this week's Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference in San Francisco, Microsoft CFO Peter Klein hinted the possibility still exists. "We have a history of cross-platform delivery broadly in productivity, whether it's Office on the Mac, or e-mail, communications, note-taking," Klein said. "And with our Web applications you can access Office documents, do some light editing on any device and on any browser. So there's a lot of things that we're already doing to meet that need. And we'll continue to think about other things going forward."

Game Informer today released details from its hands-on experience with one of EA Sports' biggest annual releases in this year's form called Madden 25.
With the official winner announced for Madden 25's cover player, the time is ripe for details on the 25th release of Madden to start surfacing. Unlike the other titles in Madden history, Madden 25 will require stamina management. Previous Madden games had players get tired after running a hearty amount of plays or breaking for big gains, but this year's release will feature a stamina bar on the selected player. This means that using sprint, performing jukes and spins, and breaking loose for big gains will clearly leave the player fatigued, and that will be represented by a deteriorated stamina bar. Not only would this affect overall speed, but this might also increase a player's susceptibility to fumble the ball.
As well as a stamina bar, players will also have more options to keep the ball moving forward as far as possible. After stumbling, players will have a split second option to flick the right analog stick up to jump or push forward depending on the situation. As well as falling forward, players also have the option to flick the right analog stick backwards to attempt regaining balance, which will allow the player to keep running.
Sprint is treated differently this year. Instead of simply performing everything faster, moving forward will be more of a dedicated endeavor, and reaching a player's top speed will not be immediate. After activating sprint, the player will speed up in order to reach top speed instead of going at top speed automatically. Top speed has its disadvantage also, considering the fact that any movement left and right will not be as effective or enunciated as not using sprint. With all of these alterations, playing Madden will require more user input.
The defense is also receiving significant changes. The primary fix, which has taken place in every installment, is the ability for defensive players to respond to situations and take better angles according to the play at hand.
A feature called "Heat Seeker Tackle Assist," players will press the wrap tackle button or use the right analog stick to help react more freely to the ball runner performing a juke.
The Infinity Engine will be greatly improved in Madden 25, which is designed to simulate better reactions between offensive and defensive players in terms of momentum and contact locations, and the improved engine will also eliminate most of those messy tackles and after play interactions where players fall all over each other and their limbs distort in strange directions.
As a fan who has purchased the last four consecutive Madden titles, Madden 25 looks to have some of the best enhancements for a long time. The Infinity Engine in Madden 13 had its pros and cons, but this year's title looks to enhance what could have been perfect last year.
Madden 25 will release for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on August 27.

Part 10 - 17th September 2008 Some of the things i have made!
Well guys its been way too long and I really need to get into the planning mode again as you can see by my countdown there are only 67 sleeps left!!!!!!! Whoohoo!!
Life has just taken over recently. A week past Sat my Dad had a heart attack and so things for the few days after that were all over the place. Thankfully he is home and on the mend after having angeoplasty and a stent placed. Just hope that he is resting as he lives 60miles away from me its really hard just to "pop by". But I am informed that his wife is not letting him lift a finger !
What else has been happening? Well Paddy and his brother then went off last week to Brussels for a few nights and had a ball - well what they can remember of it really! :beer2: So glad they had a great time!
This weekend is the Cancer Research Relay for Life in which our family have entered two teams so preparations for that have been really hectic. We've been fundraising like mad and now we just need to get the costumes sorted out!
Our teams are called "The Steamie Bairns" and "The Steamie Bairns Too" . I know the Scots on the board will understand the team name! The Steamie is a well known Scottish Play which was televised and always shown at Hogmany on the TV and set in a 1950's wash house ( which the Scots referred to as a "Steamie"). Well the street that my Mum, Uncles and myself and my brother and sisters were all brought up in had a "Steamie" at the top of it so we thought it would be a bit of a laugh to dress up in this theme and well "Bairns" is a reference to being from Falkirk - "The Falkirk Bairns" - football fans will get it!!!!
So we will all be dressed in Aprons, Headscarves and rollers pushing our High Prams with oor washing round the track and those who aren't able to walk will be sat with the old tin bath and washboard doing oor smalls for us!!! :pgig: :pgig:
It should be a great 24hrs and we will be truly knackered by the end of it but if I manage to get any photos I will be sure and post them here - I don't mind folk seeing me as a numpty!!!
Anyway on with the Florida planning! Thought I would share some pictures of some things I have printed off. The lady who designed these is just a fabulous woman and has done lots of things for me and I can't thank her enough really. She has so many requests that I managed to figure out Photoshop and personalised most things myself after she told me what fonts she used - so I was pretty pleased with myself!
So there are quite a few pictures here but thought I may as well share what I have managed to do so far!

Hello, i want to pose a question about the lack of emerald tutorials and i was wondering if somebody can fix that.
also, does anyone know how to script the legendary battles in emerald? cause the tutorials at the top mainly help FR and LG (and some R and S, barely any E) and don't really help.
i understand the basics of it, its just the coding from the game that i do not know. anyone willing to help? ^.^

for the past week or so, i have been digesting huge amounts of music from this year. there are quite a few excellent records that didnt make the list, mostly cause i didnt spend enough time with em and thusly felt kinda weird putting on said list. most notably, the avett brothers' i and love and you, patterson hood's murdering oscar, califone's funeral singers and mumford & sons sigh no more. what did make the list though, i feel are some of the best records to come out in the past 5 years or so. the top 5 i obsessed over for most of the year, which sadly caused me to neglect the above mentioned records and im sure countless others. to their credit, though, the top 5 records could probably make it in to my top 30 records of the decade – the top 2 definitely, which are minor classics in my opinion.
and here they are….whats yours?
1. roadside graves.my sons home – buy it via autume tone
work itself out – favorite song of the year
2. magnolia electric co.josephine – buy it
little sad eyes
3. dawes.north hills – buy it

when my time comes
4. richmond fontaine.we used to think the freeway sounded like a river – buy it via their bandcamp
you can move back here
5. jason isbell and the 400 unit buy it

It is now my pleasure to introduce your host, Stirling Pack; Vice President of Investor Relations for CVR Energy. Thank you, Mr. Pack, you may begin.
Stirling Pack
Thank you, Rob. Good morning, everyone. We very much appreciate you being here for our call this morning. With me on the call today are Jack Lipinski; our Chief Executive Officer, Ed Morgan; our Chief Financial Officer and Stan Riemann; our Chief Operating Officer.
Prior to the discussion of our 2010 fourth quarter and year-end results, we are required to make the following Safe Harbor statement. In accordance with Federal Securities laws, the statements in this earnings call relating to matters that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements based on management's belief and assumptions, using currently available information and expectations as of this date and are not guarantees of future performance and do involve certain risks and uncertainties, including those noted in our filings with the Securities & Exchange Commission.
This presentation includes various non-GAAP financial measures. The disclosures related to such non-GAAP measures including reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in our 2010 fourth quarter and year-end earnings release that we filed with the SEC yesterday after the close of the market.
With that disclosure statement said; I'll turn the call over to Jack Lipinski, our Chief Executive Officer. Jack?
Jack Lipinski
Thank you Stirling, good morning all and thanks for joining us. You have seen the results we released last night; we ended the year pleased with our results. I will first give my remarks and provide insight into the numbers you saw in the release, then Ed will report on our financials and afterwards I will give you my view on the current operating environment and after that we will take your questions.
In the fourth quarter, we filed an S-1 that addresses our plans with respect to our fertilizer business. In accordance with SEC rules, the Company cannot comment on matters discussed in the S-1, we will do so when appropriate, with that let me get started here. Overall, we are satisfied with the way the year turned out especially given where it began. If you recall, last February compared to Group 3 2-1-1 Crack Spread had fallen to its lowest $4 a barrel, during the year margins improved and ended with the group packages over $12.
For the year, we reported net income of $14.3 million or $0.16 per fully diluted share. On an adjusted basis, net income was $39.8 million or $0.45 per diluted share and that's on revenue of just over $4 million. For the fourth quarter, we had net income of $2.3 million or$0.03 per diluted share.
The adjusted fourth quarter results are a net income of $12.2 million or $0.14 per diluted share. Ed will walk you through the details on how we compute adjusted net income. We think the best measure of our success during the year was $163 million of net cash flow generated from operations. We began the year with $37 million in cash and ended it with $200 million.
Even after voluntarily paying down our debt on our first lean [ph] bonds, Ed will again speak to our cash and overall liquidity position during his remarks. Year-over-year refining operations continue to improve, during 2010 we set a new annual throughput record of 113,600 barrels a day, total throughput including all food stocks averaged 123,700 barrels a day.
In the fourth quarter, average crude throughput was 116,300 barrels a day and our total throughput exceeded 130,000 barrels per day. Operating income for the year from our petroleum segment was $104.6 million. In the fourth quarter; we recorded operating income from refining of $60.4 million. As noted it in our previous SEC filings, we had a non-anticipated outage on our SEC on December 29.
The end of return to full service on January 26, the net effect of this outage on lost production will show up on our first quarter results. We estimate that approximately 1.8 million barrels of crude processing will be lost in the first quarter. Despite this outage, we continue to generate positive refining income in the month of January. Our crude gathering business continues to perform well; during the year we gathered an average of 31,060 barrels a day of crude, which is a new annual record.
These fairly priced gathered barrels are an important part of our oil refinery economics and we continue to move forward on a number of opportunities to expand this business. As you know from prior calls; we have 25,000 barrels a day at capacity on the recently completed Keystone Pipeline Cushing expansion. Our first delivery was made on March 1.
This supplements to 12,000 barrels a day capacity we have on the spearhead system. We now have the ability to shift all our heavy Canadian crude needs on contracted pipelines base. This also allows us optionality to ship other grades as well. Contango for 2010 averaged $0.87 per barrel per month with a high of $4.59 and a low of $0.12; it ended the year with $0.84 per barrel a month.

Register by Tuesday, September 30!
The Student Leadership Conference provides undergraduate and graduate students with the opportunity to enhance their leadership skills and practice, network with others, and expand on their personal and professional development. All students are welcome to attend.
2014 Student Leadership Conference
This year's Student Leadership Conference is centered on the theme of "Legacy." This is a word that brings so many different things to mind, but we hope to simplify it by having students apply it to their daily lives. As individuals, everything we do is part of our legacy. Students leave their respective footprints all across campus in various activities, conversations, and organizations, that contribute to the USF community and to the individual student. Joining a student organization, running for ASUSF, participating in cultural programming, are just a few small ways students are able to begin to leave their legacy on campus. This year we hope to have students begin that conversation: What is my legacy and where do I want to go from here?
For more information: Please contact Casey Elder, Assistant Director for Leadership Programs, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Dire message from feds: No water this year
SACRAMENTO Federal water managers Friday turned off the spigot for many Central Valley farms and halved deliveries to cities near San Francisco — a never-taken step that could leave thousands of acres idle, toss farmworkers out their jobs and potentially drive up prices at the grocery store.
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation said it had no choice with reservoirs at near-record lows, a snowpack registering at about a quarter of normal and the end of winter just a few weeks away.
The decision will also have environmental consequences. The bureau is reducing to 40 percent of normal the amount being sent to federal refuges, which are a vital part of the Pacific Flyway and habitat for many migratory waterfowl species.
There is some reason for hope, however. Forecasters say a significant storm will move into the Sierra in the middle of next week and possibly linger into the weekend. These are only initial warnings and both the state and federal projects could deliver more water should the weather turn.
The Bureau of Reclamation operates the Central Valley Project, with its cornerstones the huge Shasta and Folsom reservoirs. Water flows through the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta where it is diverted into the federal network and delivered to farms and cities,
Which is easier for you to conserve?
Water 33% (388)
Energy 67% (775)
1163 total votes.
The state runs a separate, but similar pipeline out of Lake Oroville. Three weeks ago the California Department of Water Resources warned most of its customers that no new water will arrive this year. That zero percent allocation is the first time the state system has turned off the tap in its 54-year history.
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California and its primary customer, the San Diego County Water Authority, rely on the State Water Project and Colorado River supplies. Friday's announcement will have no direct impact on the San Diego region, where residents have been urged to take voluntary conservation efforts.
Not all customers are treated equally. The amounts vary by which agency has older, legal call on supplies when there are cuts. Some agricultural districts, by virtual of their legal standing, will receive up to half of normal supplies. Cities that rely on federal water will be cut by 50 percent,
Both projects, however, are required by law to provide some amounts to customers with long-standing historic rights to some water. Still, even those districts will see steep cuts.
The Central Valley feeds much of the country, producing large amounts of fruits, nuts and vegetables.
The cuts will impact more than farmers. Field hands will lose their jobs, straining local services from food banks to rental assistance efforts. Businesses that cater to farmers also expect to see a decline, particularly where agriculture is the driver of the economy, from restaurants to retail stores.
The crisis has prompted both President Barack Obama and Gov. Jerry Brown to rush aid to the drought-stricken communities, farmers and ranchers.
Cities also will be squeezed, but some have alternative supplies. For example, the federal project serves the Contra Costa Water District, which delivers water to about 500,000 customers, mostly centered in the Walnut Creek-Concord corridor, a suburban business hub east of San Francisco. Those customers have a limited backup supply in the Los Vaqueros Reservoir, built with ratepayer dollars. It will receive half its normal supply from the Bureau of Reclamation.
The announcement was widely expected, but nevertheless will only sharpen California's deep divisions over water. Farmers and their allies in Washington and Sacramento have called on Obama and Brown to free more water for them, even if it means sacrificing colder and faster flows needed for fish. Environmentalists, as well as the fishing industry, have resisted.

Gabriel Orozco
13 December 2009 - 01 March 2010
13 December 2009 1 March 2010
With a body of work that is unique in its formal power and intellectual rigor, Gabriel Orozco (Mexican, b. 1962) emerged at the beginning of the 1990s as one of the most intriguing and original artists of his generationand one of the last to come of age in the twentieth century. Orozco resists confinement to a single medium, roaming freely and fluently among drawing, photography, sculpture, installation, and painting. From one project to the next, he deliberately blurs the boundaries between the art object and the everyday environment, instead situating his contributions in a place that merges "art" and "reality," whether in exquisite drawings made on airplane boarding passes or in sculptures made from recovered trash.
Many of Orozco's workswhich are often created specifically for the occasion of an exhibitionhave become indisputable classics of 1990s art, such as the Citroën automobile surgically reduced to two-thirds its normal width (La DS, 1993) and a human skull covered with a graphite grid (Black Kites, 1997). This exhibition presents many of these works for the first time in New York, alongside rich selections of work from Orozco's vast body of smaller objects, paintings, and works on paper.
The exhibition in New York will be followed by presentations at the Kunstmuseum Basel, April 10August 10, 2010; and the Musée national d'art moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, September 10, 2010January 11, 2011.
The exhibition is organized by Ann Temkin, Marie-Josée and Henry Kravis Chief Curator of Painting and Sculpture, The Museum of Modern Art.

Sign up for Office 365
Learn more about Office 365
I have recently purchased office 365 however everytime i attempt to install the program i get the error:
c:\program files\microsoft office 15\clientx64\integratedoffice.exe
I have looked over the forum and found that this error is due to the fact that I have installed office previously. This is true office 2010 was previously installed and has now been uninstalled. I have attempted to use the forum to find feedback on what to do however have not resolved this issue to date and continue to get the error.
Can someone suggest what i need to do to fix the problem. I am running windows 7 software.
Thanks for the feedback.
Hi Bruce,
Please refer to the article below and use the Fix it in this article to solve the problem:

I hsvr tried this link aready and either it is down or doesnt work as I was not able to run the patch.
Any other suggestions??? Thanks in advance.
I'd like to know if there are any errors when you were not able to run the patch. Please try to right click it and run as administrator. Otherwise, you can try the following link to manually uninstall Office:
Moreover, you can refer to the link below to delete the entire Windows Office subdirectory structure mentioned in the error message and killed off several registry entries relating to Office to have a try:
If the issue persists, I recommend you post a new question on the Office forum for more dedicated support:
Support engineers there are professional at handling these issues, which can help resolve the problem more efficiently. We are sure you can find more information there.
Bruce, I'm in the same boat one with a big hole!
"c:\program files\microsoft office 15\clientx64\integratedoffice.exe"
I got this same error after I tried a Online Repair of my Office 365 for the 3rd time each and every time! Now I am getting very tired with this. I did everything that was suggested including hacking the registry. I get to a certain point with the re-installation of the re-installation, of the fraking re-installation. and then nothing works. A get a partial install with the apps where I don't have send/Receive in Outlook. I don't even have VBA access let alone the editor in Excel anymore. Completely gone!
I get a weird message in Oultook saying I am reaching my "data limit" and to switch to Airplane mode! WHAT! This is a fraking desktop PC Window 7 (64bit) on a Intel Core i5-3450 system with a crap load of memory. What the heck happened? Why does the install app not know this? It did before.
As of 4 days ago everything was working perfectly for a over a month. Then yesterday morning, I open a workbook in Excel, that I created and was working on for several days prior, and I started to get errors! I thought maybe it was the workbook itself. No it wasn't; other workbooks were generating similar errors. For some reason Office was removing all my VBA project files in the workbooks! I did a repair; then this entire frustrating loop of repair, re-install, repair, re-install, started!
Yes I did use the Fixit apps for Office 2003 and Office 2007, which I had previously had on this system. In fact before I did that and before all this started to happen, both Office 2007 and Office 365 were coexisting fine together on this system.
Now I get an error saying "We found a problem! ... We found a pre-release or Beta version of an Office product on your system and can't install because of it. Please uninstall ... " blah blah blah! Which Office? There is nothing listed in Programs and Features. I never installed any beta of anything what-so-ever!
I have installed Office 365 on two other systems with no errors. The two systems are laptops; one is a Win7 and the other a Win8. They are working fine. In fact I took the workbook from my desktop and it opened properly on the Win7 laptop.
The error messages I get, the install failures I get, the repair "Something is wrong" message I get, are all very frustrating. I have never ever experience this before with MS products and I have been using Office products since the good old days of Win3.1! What happened MS ?!?
I want a fix NOW!
