Date of Defense 2007-02-12 Availability unrestricted AbstractThe objective of the study was to evaluate a multi-component school-based nutrition intervention program, Smart Bodies, to see if the curriculum increased nutrition knowledge, increased self-reported intakes of fruits and vegetables, and improved opinions, outcome expectations, social norms, and self-efficacy related to fruit and vegetables among elementary school students. The Smart Bodies curriculum was conducted in the classrooms of eighteen public schools in south Louisiana over a twelve-week period and included nutrition related games, videos, books and classroom activity tracking charts. Six hundred forty-one 4th and 5th grade students were included in the sample. A survey based on the Social Cognitive Theory was administered to evaluate nutrition knowledge, fruit and vegetable intake, opinions, self-efficacy, social norms and outcome expectations related to fruit and vegetable consumption both before and after the intervention. A factor analysis was run on each section to determine the number and nature of underlying factors affecting the relationship between each section of variables. Least square means tests using a mixed-model ANOVA were conducted on the knowledge section and on each factor.
The study results showed an increase in self-reported intakes of fruit and fruit juice (p=0.01) and a tendency towards an increase in nutrition knowledge in children who participated in the curriculum (p=0.07). The study also found that the students who completed the program had a better self-efficacy related to F&V (p=0.01) and a tendency for more positive opinions (p=0.07) about F&V consumption than those students who did not participate in the intervention. The results suggest that a multi-component, school-based nutrition intervention program may increase fruit and vegetable intakes and improve self-efficacy to consume fruits and vegetables.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hello learner,
Adding repairs to the home would not necessarily increase the taxes you owe when you sell it. You would owe capital gains tax on any gain your have from the sale. If this is a rental property, your gain would be figured using the following formula.
Take your selling price, less your basis, less the cost of any selling expenses such as real estate commissions. You then must add back in any depreciation you have claimed over the years.
Your basis in the property would be the price you originally paid for the property plus the cost of any repairs that you made while you owned it. So you would increase your basis by the cost of any repairs that you make, which will help reduce your reportable gain.
If this was helpful please press the Accept button. It is the only way we receive any credit for helping with these questions.
Thank you learner

PUPILS in York have signed up to an anti-bullying charter.
As part of National Anti Bullying Week which drew to a close yesterday, youngsters in the west of York worked together to create the charter which will be shared across the schools.
The project has been co-ordinated by Rod Sims, associate head teacher at York High School, in partnership with the primary schools that feed pupils into York High after Year Six.
Mr Sims, who is responsible for pastoral care, said schools took bullying very seriously but it remained a concern for pupils and parents.
The project aimed to highlight the issue and help children and their parents feel it was something they could discuss with schools and know it would be taken seriously.
Tracey Ralph, Westfield Primary School's head teacher, said the primary schools valued their close links with York High, and such projects helped pupils and parents understand that as children move on to secondary school there would be common approaches and expectations to tackle issues like bullying.
David Ellis, head teacher at York High, said: "Sadly, bullying is something which can have a very serious impact on young people and as a result of Facebook, texting and other social media it can easily be hidden from adults.
"It is vital that we provide young people with the confidence and skills to be able to come forward and share their concerns with their schools. We hope that our new charter will play a part in enabling that to happen."

The Spotted Giant
Daryl Balfour, by his own admission, was muttering mild curses when the glorious snow-capped Kilimanjaro appeared from behind a cloud, towering above the Kenyan plains.
He'd been hoping that he could capture an elephant in front of the mountain - iconic Africa. Instead, a giraffe appeared. He felt it was second-best at the time, but that photograph has gone everywhere in the world. You've probably seen it on a calendar, a brochure, a poster or the cover of a book.
Game rangers are often taken aback at what excites foreign tourists. Everyone assumes the Big 5 are the most popular. But usually people on a game drive vehicle for the very first time in Africa really want to see giraffes. And in fact, I agree with them. I'd rather watch a herd (actually, the collective noun is tower, or journey) of giraffes than a pride of sleeping lions.
Giraffes can be far more interesting. It's mesmerising to watch them eat. They have long soft purplish tongues that they effortlessly manoeuvre around vicious thorns to get at tender leaves.
Like cows, they chew the cud. Sometimes you can see this large lump travelling up to their mouths again, all the way up their long necks from their stomachs, and then down again. It's quite strange to watch.
Also, they have this endearing habit of thinking they're invisible if they hide behind trees. They'll retreat and peer at you from between branches.
They guard against osteoporosis by sucking on bones - which has meant that many poor misguided tourists are convinced that giraffes are vicious hunters.
Daryl Balfour admits that the popularity of the picture made him realise that giraffes are probably the true icons of Africa. Unlike elephants, they're found nowhere else.

Seat belts should be installed on all school buses that travel on rural and regional roads, according to an independent safety report to the state government.
And the government should pay for more school buses in regional areas so children do not have to stand on buses travelling on unsealed roads or at more than 80km/h outside urban areas.
The recommendations would cost the government up to $55 million a year.
The death of a nine-year-old last month after a school bus and a prime mover collided at Singleton near Newcastle has sharpened the focus on school bus safety.
But the issue has been controversial for years, with communities across the state, and particularly along the Pacific and Princes highways, lobbying governments for stronger safety measures on school buses.
Soon after coming to power, the O'Farrell government established the School Bus Safety Advisory Committee whose final report, released today, includes 35 recommendations.
The most significant – and costly – is for all new and replacement buses used on routes in rural and regional areas to be fitted with seatbelts in the next 10 years.
The committee, chaired by Carolyn Walsh, a former chief executive of the NSW Independent Transport Safety and Reliability Regulator, said that if all recommendations were adopted the measures would cost about $7 million next year, rising to about $55 million a year in a decade.
The higher recurring cost would be to allow the purchase of extra replacement buses.
The total cost of running rural and regional school buses is now about $372 million a year.
In response, the Transport Minister, Gladys Berejiklian, and the Roads Minister, Duncan Gay, said today they would consider the report.
Another recommendation is that, by the start of the third term next year, extra buses should be scheduled to run some routes so that children did not have to stand.
The committee acknowledged that some studies had concluded it would not be worth the benefit of mandating seat belts.
But it said there was a compelling case to introduce seat belts on buses used in high-speed non-urban rural and regional environments.
Seat belts are already compulsory in long-distance coaches in Australia.
The Greens transport spokeswoman, Cate Faehrmann, has called for the faster introduction of seat belts on school buses.

Steven Tyler Leaving American Idol to Focus on Aerosmith — Thank God!
Steven Tyler has beat Jennifer Lopez to the punch, quitting American Idol today (Thursday, July 12). A statement from Fox confirms that Tyler is departing the show. Poor Randy Jackson — doesn't anybody want to be on this show anymore?
"After some long…hard…thoughts…I've decided it's time for me to let go of my mistress 'American Idol' before she boils my rabbit," said Tyler in a statement. "I strayed from my first love, Aerosmith, and I'm back, but instead of begging on my hands and knees, I've got two fists in the air and I'm kicking the door open with my band."
Aerosmith just released a new song, called "Legendary Child," and a new album, Music from Another Dimension, is on the way. Aerosmith, by the way, still makes pretty good music. Let's face it: Tyler on Idol kinda watered down the Aerosmith brand, and Joe Perry must have given him a good talkin' too.
Tyler went on to say that he's going to spend the next few years "kicking some serious ass — the ultimate in auditory takeover."
"Idol was over-the-top fun, and I loved every minute of it," Tyler said. "Now it's time to bring Rock Back."
Please do.
Jennifer Lopez and Randy Jackson are still judges on the show as of this moment, though J-Lo mused Thursday morning on NBC's TODAY that it "may be time" for her to go. Does anybody remember how we broke artists before American Idol?

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
will be paying for remainder of car ,will be paying her rent,furnitures/household stuff she keeps, temp alimony till judge finalizes divorce. Want to make things peaceful and help her.
1)Will that make things better when judge decides? 1.5)will there be any permanent alimony for her? Trying to go for uncontested but she might go for contested divorce. I earn close to 80k and she earns close to 40k. She has graduate degree from reputed univ and always been employed during and before marraige.1.6) for this short term of marriage will there e any permanent alimony? if not how long do they mean by short term suppport generally.2)Do i have to move out first (will that be desertion)? 3)Do i file for divorce or make a separation agreement and then move out.? 4) seperation agreement how costly?
You ask some really good questions. It is always best to act in a reasonable and fair manner. But what is reasonable and fair in any given circumstance can depend on many factors. For example, you ask if any permanent alimony is possible in such a short term marriage. There are ten factors cited in the Family Law code which a judge normally will consider when making a determination of longer term spousal support, and if the judge believes that other factors not cited in the code are relevant and important to making such a decision, then that judge has authority to take those other factors into account. Pendente Lite spousal support is simply to take care of temporary needs while both spouses are adjusting to the new status of living alone and with less family income and higher respective living expenses now that each person has to depend upon their own income to pay for the bills. For longer term spousal support which extends beyond the temporary Pendente Lite needs, those ten factors become important and must be taken into account. I could spend hours going over everything, and then still only touch the surface of the questions you have asked. Why not have an in-person consultation with an attorney, provide the relevant and specific facts and then benefit from good legal advice tailored specifically to your life and your individual circumstances? I would be pleased to help you. I am close by Baltimore, and I can meet with you in person in Baltimore, or you can come here to my office. You may reach me at (410) 381-1656. David Mahood, Esq.
This answer is NOT legal advice and is GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY and does NOT establish an Attorney/Client Relationship because you have not retained me and because you have not provided me with a COMPLETE set of all the FACTS in your legal situation. Therefore my answer cannot address your specific legal situation and you should not rely upon my answer in your legal matter. This answer is merely provided to assist you in beginning your own research or in finding an attorney to represent you. I am an attorney licensed in Maryland and California. A Consultation, Retainer and a fully signed and dated Legal Services Agreement (a contract) will be required if you would like to obtain my representation. Office: (410) 381-1656. David Mahood, Esq.Ask a similar question
Hire an attorney. At your income, you are going to be expected to do so. Given the short duration of your marriage and not having children and not acquiring property together during your marriage (hard to imagine nothing was purchased during your marriage), this ought to be straight forward and simple. Not being a Maryland attorney, I can provide direction, coaching and guidance, but not advice. I would not imagine her $40k income, not ceasing to work during the marriage, and able to support herself would provide any basis for alimony, before or after the divorce. If you can come to an agreement, with or without a mediator, perhaps, then you could do so (an attorney can advise you on the range of outcomes that would come from a contested divorce which might provide some parameters or guidance in terms of what would be reasonable terms for your agreement, but, still, it is your life and whatever terms seem good to you (and, to be an agreement, to her) are fine (some divorcing people become tight, others generous, and some in between). There is no prohibition on moving out and getting your own place, but the money is more of the basis for abandonment (given her income, no children, this is not likely, hard to imagine, to be an issue). Apparently, something makes you think she might go for a contested divorce, which brings negotiation skills into play. As a mediator, I can help coach you on approaching her with the terms you want without telling her what they are and inviting her to present you with what she wants. You remain in charge of the terms of any agreement you are proposing and of the course and direction of the case, paying heed to a skilled attorney (if you get one). Read up on the Sessions (limitations and terms) I offer for $79 during January.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/6/2012 (1893 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
North American television-program content is increasingly under fire because it flagrantly misrepresents important features of mainstream society. By inaccurately portraying elements of everyday reality, television dramas and other programs forge enduring misconceptions that distort the mindsets of viewers.
Much of what is broadcast on television does not mirror actuality, researchers report, but instead distorts fundamentals so as to create a false impression of authenticity that people actually come to believe is factual.
"The more time people spend watching television, the more likely their conceptions of reality will reflect what they see on television," explained George Gerbner, a communication specialist at the University of Pennsylvania and Temple University.
People usually perceive the world as reflected by the program content they watch, he added. The phenomenon is called the "cultivation theory."
"Television viewing is related to altered perceptions of reality," confirmed Jacob Wakshalog at Indiana State University and his colleagues.
Reports by T. Tyler, F. Cook and others in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology and the Journal of Broadcasting and Electronic Media indicate television is a "dominant social force" that subtly manipulates viewers' beliefs.
"It influences citizens' views," confirmed Meredith Lett and Andrea Di Pietro at West Virginia Weslyan College. "It has an impact on societal-level judgments."
Accumulating research confirms television-program content, and especially an overabundance of programs dealing with violence and other important topics, taints the way viewers look at some significant social issues. It makes people believe things that are not true.
For instance, the Atlantic monthly recently summarized controversial information dealing with the public perception of the proportion of gays and lesbians in the population at large. Studies by the University of California School of Law, the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, Statistics Canada and several prominent demographers agree 1.7 to 2.8 per cent of the North American population comprises gays and lesbians.
An overwhelming number of people have concluded the proportion is much larger, and television's depictions of gay/lesbian-related themes are largely responsible for the misconception, researchers say.
Two extensive polls conducted by the Gallup organization show in 2002, fully 25 per cent of adults thought 25 per cent of the population was gay/lesbian, a figure 10 times too high.
In 2011, another Gallup poll showed 33 per cent of adults surveyed thought 25 per cent of the population is gay/lesbian. In total, more than half of the people polled thought 20 per cent of the population is gay/lesbian, almost seven times the actual figure.
According Gallup pollsters, more than one-quarter "massively overestimated the actual figure."
Similarly, another poll found most respondents overestimated the number of foreign-born people living in the United States by a factor of four.
"Exposure... on television (to misleading information) is the driving factor in changing public perception," concluded James Joyner, of the Atlantic Council.
Comparably biased public perceptions have surfaced with regard to the prevalence of violent crimes, stemming from the comparative frequency of crime-related prime-time programs. Such a preponderance of crime programming generates the mistaken belief that crime is more rampant than is the actual case.
Even though crime-focused programs often dominate prime-time television schedules, Canada's per capita homicide rate is a mere .016, ranking 42nd on a descending scale of the nations of the world (the United States ranks 33).
Television dramas give the impression aggravated assaults are virtually commonplace, yet the assault rates in Canada are about 140 per 100,000 people; robbery, often depicted as common, has a rate in Canada of 88 per 100,000 people.
A recent U.S. study showed most people overestimate the prevalence of blacks and Hispanics in the population, believing proportions five times those compiled by the U.S. Census Bureau.
Communications specialists caution television programs comprise entertainment, and any information they might subtly suggest should not be construed as representing reality.

Members from BattleCry Studios have safely made their way back to Austin from Melbourne and were nice enough to bring back plenty of new previews and interviews for the game — including The Escapists' hands-on impressions describing the game as "a deliciously in-your-face alternate reality brawler with a beautiful art style". For more on the game, check out the stories below…
Explosion — "The new PAX video revealed a new gameplay mode for Battlecry–Land Grab. Basically, Land Grab looks like a zone control multiplayer battle. I am glad there will be alternate modes besides a basic team deathmatch mode. I expect more gameplay modes will be incorporated to the game later."
Geek Bomb — "As a huge fan of online multiplayer games and in particular free-to-play, I was immediately drawn to the highly-stylised visuals and breakneck pace. It's clear to see the game is aimed at the competitive market and it's a perfect fit, with a learning curve that's quick to understand but incredibly difficult to master, it requires skill, precision and most importantly teamwork."
Interviews — Read and watch new interview with design director Lucas Davis at both GameCloud and KayleGames.

Torta Alla Gianduia (Chocolate Hazelnut Cake)
Recipe by skat5762
This is from Nigella Lawson's book, How to be a Domestic Goddess. It's quite easy to make, yet looks drop-dead impressive. Definately a cake that will cheer the soul of any adult. I used my KitchenAide mixer, so if you aren't using one, your prep time may be a bit longer.
Top Review by tinantam
Yum Yum! Very decadent! I made for my daughter's birthday because she cannot eat gluten and loves hazelnuts. The icing didn't work right; but still tasted good. I changed up with raspberries AND Hazelnuts to decorate the top. So delicious. Next time, I'll chop up the hazelnuts before toasting. They were too big whole to eat properly. I'll make this again! And again!
See Discussion:5 Reviews
Ingredients Nutrition
for the cake
- 6 large eggs, separated
- 1 pinch salt
- 1⁄2 cup soft unsalted butter
- 14 ounces nutella (chocolate hazelnut spread)
- 1 tablespoon Frangelico or 1 tablespoon rum or 1 tablespoon water
- 1⁄2 cup ground hazelnuts, scant
- 4 ounces good quality bittersweet chocolate, melted
for the icing
- 4 ounces hazelnuts
- 1⁄2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Frangelico or 1 tablespoon rum or 1 tablespoon water
- 4 ounces good quality bittersweet chocolate
Directions See How It's Made
- Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
- Prepare a 9-inch springform pan: grease and line with parchment or wax paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs whites and salt until stiff but not dry (this means that they will hold their peaks, yet still appear glossy and smooth).
- In a separate bowl, beat the butter and Nutella together, then add Frangelico (or what you have chosen to use), egg yolks, and ground hazelnuts.
- Fold in the cooled, melted chocolate, then lighten the mixture with a dollop of egg white, which you can beat in as roughly as you want, before gently folding the rest of them in a third at a time.
- Pour into the prepared pan and cook for 40 minutes or until the cake's beginning to come away at the sides, then let cool on rack.
- Toast the hazelnuts in a dry frying pan until the aroma wafts upward and the nuts are golden brown in parts: keep shaking the pan so they don't burn on one side and stay too pallid on others.
- Transfer to a plate and let cool.
- This is imperative: if they go on the ganache while hot, it'll turn oily (believe me I speak from experience).
- In a heavy-bottomed sauce pan, add the cream, liquer or water, and chopped chocolate and heat gently.
- Once the chocolate's melted, take the pan off the heat and whisk until it reaches the right consistency to ice just the top of the cake.
- Unmold the cooled cake carefully, leaving it on the base as it will be too difficult to get such a damp cake off in one piece.
- Ice the top with the chocolate icing, and dot thickly with the whole, toasted hazelnuts.
- If you have used Frangelico, put shot glasses on the table and serve it with the cake.

Ask a Lawyer and Get Answers to Your Legal Questions
Thank you for using JustAnswer!I am sorry to learn of your circumstances. What type of harassment are you experiencing?
I have been having problems with a tenant upstairs from me. He is the landlords son's friend. The landlord is in Portugal and the son collects the money and tries to maintain the property. I had a confortation with the tenant and he called the police two weeks after. The real landlord was here and I made him aware of the he said she said police report. He is a very nice landlord and his son seems to have problems understanding how to be a landlord. They are both police officer's in another town. He called me last week and told me he wanted to do a walk threw to see if I need any upgrades and that he was going to do the same to all apartments. But, when he came in he was very mean and told me not to burn candles........I moved in with a dog and two cats which he agreed. He screamed at me and said when your dog and cats die you will never have any more. My apartment is very cleaned and kept up with no help from him
are you here?
Yes. So, he's just a jerk?
It's not like he's sexually harassing you or anything like that, right?
He's not threatening you with physical harm, right?
but he pointed his finger in my face and told me I am close to getting out. I asked him for what reason and why is he doing this. He wouldn't answer
Do you have a written lease?
So you're month-to-month, right?
I'm very upset with this and I don't know what to do
I understand.
The fact of the matter is that it's not against the law to be a jerk.
Or a bully.
He can't discriminate based upon gender, race, etc. And it can't sexually harass or threaten you with physical harm.
But, the reality is that, yes, you are a month-to-month tenant and he can give you notice to move out.
just because he wants to?
The question for you is just how much longer you really want to live there and put up with such nonsense.
It's not against the law.
and if I don't?
He can give you 30 days to move out. If you don't, he can take you to court and have you evicted.
There's no getting around that.
One moment, please. I'll be right back.
my family lives here. It is a 3 familly house and the upstairs apartment for some reason has a door in my living room and they are very noisy
he doesn't need a reason to have me evicted?
Communication is so important. However, some folks are just rude. And bullies. And they don't know how to behave better.
No, he does not need a reason to have you evicted. You do not have a written lease for a specific period of time.
I do nothing wrong, he just doesn't like me and his dad is not aware what is going on.
He will have to serve me eviction notice?
Is there anything else that I can assist with?
can you please tell me how that works?
One moment, please.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Review by Waspinator9063
"The Legend Lives!"
Wow, what can I say? Hm... I can say a lot, actually. When I first heard that LttP (A Link to the Past) was coming to Game Boy Advance (GBA), my initial reaction was ''great, let's all go and ruin the graphics of one of the best games in history... and destroy its controls on the game boy...'' Could I have been more wrong? Doubtful.
LttP has been completely taken from its original makings, and completely deposited on the GBA! And then, they changed it. Now, before you go grab your Vampire-Slaying Wooden Stake and march on NoA HQ (Nintendo of America, Head Quarters), let me tell you the changes.
First off, they changed the inventory. This was the first thing I noticed. They just changed the shape of the item subscreen, allowing players to **gasp** KEEP the shovel. Woopie, huh? I know, its not the best addition in the gaming world, but hey, I like digging junk up. Other than that, all the items are in the same place. All the items are still there, all four bottles, the three magic spells, its all here.
Then, they changed how you save the game. Before, you had to save and quit, right? Well, either way, they have it set up so you can save anywhere, at anytime. Then you can continue. That's always a good thing. What's even cooler, is you can now start off from where you saved. No, this does not mean, save at the bottom of Turtle Rock at Trinexx and keep reloading until you finally can kill him. They don't have it set up QUITE that easy. But, if you save IN Turtle Rock, or just after leaving it, (Turtle Rock is JUST an Example) you'll start at the last door way you entered/left. This trick is also handy in the world map. Because if you save right after using a dark world/light world warp via a teleporter or a magical mirror portal, you start at THAT exact location. Once again, I say they have done a NICE job with this port.
So, you're wondering, ''It's a port? Ew, boo Nintendo, boo! Where's my wooden stake?'' I say: ''Nay, hold thyself steady, young hemoroids victim!'' Well, something along those lines. This is NOT a direct port. Hence why the game is actually called ''The Four Swords.'' Yeah, that's right, Nintendo isn't as cheap as you thought. So put down the stake while I tell you about the new game, Buffy.
The Four Swords is ACTUALLY a multiplayer game. (Hence the number Four) You can ONLY play it with a friend. Up to (you guessed it!) FOUR people can play at once, by using GBA link cables. There are a plethora of items in the game... pegasus boots, gnat hat, boomerang... and more. I don't know, or remember them all. The graphics in the Four Swords are pretty nice, also. They're a few miles ahead of LttP's graphics, and I like the improvement. The Four Swords (4S, for short) is using the model of the cel-shaded Link from the GCN, (Gamecube)which looks rather nice on the GBA.
4S allows you 3 different endings! Your performance in the game will earn you one of three keys, or none of the above. This could mean that there are FOUR endings! ''Dude, I'm getting a Dell!'' Err... ''Dude, I'm getting a Master Sword!'' There we go, that's better.
By completing LttP and 4S, you unlock a NEW solo-dungeon in LttP, which has a rather interesting surprise at the end... Let's leave it at that. Also, completing certain tasks while in 4S, you can unlock a NEW swordskill in LttP, and let's just say, ''W00t''.
Well, my fingers grow numb. We have reached the end:
--Final Count:
----Graphics: 10/10 (This is GAMEBOY people!)
----Story: 8/10 (Its the same basic shell, but with some tweaks)
----Innovation: 10/10 (None in LttP, but 4S is like a wet dream)
----Difficulty: 5/5 (5 means just right, 1 being too hard or easy)
----Replay Value: 8/10 (No direct changes in replaying it, but its fun enough)
----Gameplay: 20/10 (Two games in one! Well, I'll leave it at 10, but its still the best I've played on GBA in a long time!)
--Final verdict: 10/10 **not averaged** (Go get the game now!!!)
Well, yawn, that's all I can think of. I think its safe to assume that you won't march on NoA HQ, stakes drawn. Anyway, let me know if this review was helpful to you by answering the little thingy below!
And, thank you for reading my review! I hope it was helpful!

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I'm currently in Chapter 13, but would like to start a small online business to make some extra money. If I do this after the process starts, can I lose all profits? Would it be better for a friend or relative to start this for me?
First and foremost never play any games with a bankruptcy court. If it will not stand inspection with all the facts revealed do not under any circumstances do it. I see nothing wrong with starting a business. In terms of what you have to report and when please talk to your lawyer.Ask a similar question
Sure you can start a business. And the income from it will be available to the trustee to pay your debts. Having someone else as your "front man" does not change the fact that it is income that the trustee controls. If you are talking about setting up a fraudulent arrangement to avoid paying your creditors, then you would be committing bankruptcy fraud, and could get free room and board at "club fed" for a while. You really need to play by the rules.Ask a similar question
All of your disposable income must be devoted to your chapter 13 plan. If your income goes up, your plan payments have to go up too. Thus, chapter 13 as currently constituted creates a perverse incentive to sit on your hands insteaqd of maximizing your income. Bad policy IMO, but it's what we all have to live with.Ask a similar question

It all starts out as some harmless fun – the buzz from seeing the little red notification pop-up whenever someone likes your photo or re-tweets your musings – but before long you are hooked, and need more.
Social media companies such as Facebook and Twitter are pushing these virtual pills onto millions, if not billions, of social media users who habitually check their phones and other smart devices for a new hit of feedback, praise, reassurance, or criticism (anything, really).
While many might be held hostage by this habit, Melbourne comedian Jordana Borensztajn has made a career out of managing hers.
The 31-year-old self-confessed iPhone and social media addict has created two shows, including her latest Like Me, Love Me, Re-Tweet Me starting at the Melbourne Comedy Festival later this month.
Borensztajn says she was hooked on the "buzz, thrill and rush" whenever friends and fans liked and re-tweeted her posts, but eventually the virtual ping of approval became more important than her face-to-face interactions.
She went cold turkey for three days in a bid to better understand her condition, realising that a like is only fleeting. Now she aims for one social-media free day a week.
"When social media was taking off in 2004, the idea was that it connects people, but in the last 10 years that core philosophy and meaning has transformed into a way to showcase your best side to the world. It's become more narcissistic, more ego driven," Borensztajn, who also speaks to corporate and school audiences about her experiences, said.
"I [have] so many of these psychological conditions I never had 10 years ago."
People's growing pre-occupation with social media is a cause for concern, according to University of Michigan professor Elliot Panek, but he is reluctant to label it an addiction.
"It's more likely a relatively benign form of self-regulation failure," Professor Panek said, "like eating more potato chips than one had intended".
There is, however, a correlation between social media and narcissism, he said. Evidence suggests self-centred individuals spend more time using these platforms and tend to post more than other individuals.
In a University of Michigan report published last year, Panek found Facebook status updates and Twitter posts increased as narcissistic behaviours, such as grandiose exhibitionism, entitlement and exploitativeness, rose.
The study deduced that Facebook was a technology-enhanced mirror reflecting a preoccupation with one's own image, others' reaction to it, and a desire to update it as frequently as possible.
It also found Twitter was used by college kids as a technology-augmented megaphone, amplifying one's own perceived superiority to others.
Professor Panek is sceptical of the idea that apps like these are making us more self-centred.
"It's more likely that social media makes narcissists' attempts at self-aggrandisement highly visible, making it seem as though we as a culture are become more self-obsessed," he said.
Professor Panek said users, especially those concerned with "online impression management", can become mindful media users and reflect on their habits by using software programs limiting the amount of time spent on specific websites.
For Borensztajn, comedy has become a form of social media therapy, and vice-versa.
"If I can talk about my tech and social media obsession on stage, and use laughter to connect with audience members, it's therapeutic. Tech-life balance is something I'm still trying to achieve."

Can I burn Fedora-8-i386-dvd.iso to CD's? I do not have a DVD burner
Yes I am brand new to Linux. I can't live with Microsoft any more. Thanks for any help that will save me from it!
I'm sure there are ways to split it up into CD-sized chunks, but I'm not sure if that's feasible for you. Have you considered downloading a Fedora Live CD instead? I'm pretty sure they have a hard disk install option. You could then install any other packages you want via the Internet repositories. It's just a thought.
Thanks very much for the idea. I couldn't find a live Fed 8 so I ended up installing Fedora 6 from some cd's. Very cool but I have no idea how to install software or any applications. I am still on-line via XP as I can't get my wireless working on linux.
Again, many thanks for posting a reply to my question.
Here is the link to F8 live cds: http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora
You will run into issues installing stuff on FC6 as it is beyond EOL(End Of Life). Once a version has reached EOL no further updates are made. Repos that used to mirror the data begin dropping quite rapidly.
Installing software is done with yum(man yum) from CLI or yumex a graphical front end for yum.
Switching to Fedora 8 live
Hi, thanks for the link. I now have a Fed 8 live disk and can boot from it. I currently have two 40GB partions, one XP and the other Fedora 6. I would like to replace Fed 6 with the Fed 8. When I boot the Fedora 8 it runs fine but when I try to install it to the hard drive only one drive appears as an option to install to. It shows a single 80GB drive. I do not want to write over XP yet. How can I designate the correct drive to write over. I am currently using grub(2) if that makes a difference.
Yes, I am a true newb.....
Thanks to all
Fedora 8 is installed. Thanks to all who helped.

The ninth-place finisher of 'American Idol' season 10 is going to premiere the music video on August 9.
Pia Toscano has teased what to expect from her upcoming music video for her debut single "This Time". In the sneak peek, the rumored girlfriend of "Dancing with the Stars" pro dancer Mark Ballas belts out the lyrics about effort to find a new true happiness after going through a rough break-up.

Lottery Perks May Arrive to North Carolina C-stores
Program would give store owners cash payments for selling winning jackpot tickets.
RALEIGH -- In an effort to better promote the North Carolina lottery to convenience store customers, the state lottery commission earlier this week agreed to begin a program that gives store owners cash payments for selling winning jackpot tickets, the News & Observer reported.
The state sells lottery tickets through more than 6,000 retail locations, and retailers already receive 7 cents for every dollar spent on lottery tickets, which will continue, according to the report.
The cash incentive for a jackpot ticket is something present in other states, and North Carolina store owners frequently request, said Shaheen.
A jackpot Powerball ticket would be worth $50,000, while a jackpot prize in Carolina Cash 5 would be worth between $1,000 and $10,000. Incentives are also designed to encourage suggestive selling of more tickets and upselling $1 tickets to $2 multipliers.
"We want retailers to be sure they explain the option of the multiplier," he said. "We want them to say, 'Have you bought a Powerball ticket today?'"
But the incentive will only work if store owners agree to share the cash with the clerks, said Sandy Starr, who operates a Rose Mart in Wilson, N.C.
"If you're working for a chain store, do you really think they're going to give them anything?" Starr told the paper. "[The lottery commission] really should make some kind of a stipulation that the employees get it, too."
Starr said she intends to share incentives with her employees.

Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi hailed a "victory of the people" but warned against triumphalism after her apparent win in elections seen as a test of the regime's burgeoning reforms.
YANGON – Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi hailed a "victory of the people" but warned against triumphalism after her apparent win in elections seen as a test of the regime's burgeoning reforms.
Suu Kyi supporters celebrated into the night after her National League for Democracy (NLD) party declared that the Nobel laureate had secured a seat in parliament for the first time in Sunday's by-elections.
The veteran activist's election to political office, if confirmed, would mark the latest dramatic change in the country.
"It's usual that NLD members and supporters are happy at this moment," Suu Kyi, who was locked up by the former junta for most of the past 22 years, said in a statement after the vote.
"But words, behaviour and actions that can harm and sadden other parties and people must be avoided completely. I would like all NLD members to ensure that the victory of the people is a dignified victory," she added.
Official results were expected within a week.
Even if her party were to take all 44 seats it contested in Sunday's elections, it would not tip the balance of power in a parliament dominated by the military and its political allies.
But as a lawmaker and opposition leader in parliament she would have an unprecedented voice in the legislative process, and her party is also already looking ahead to the next general election in 2015.
"Obviously they want to win the next election comprehensively and be able to set up a government in their own right," said Trevor Wilson, a Myanmar expert at the Australian National University.
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, in Istanbul for a meeting of the "Friends of Syria" group, said Washington was committed to supporting the nascent reforms in Myanmar that have been cautiously welcomed by the West.
Unlike in 2010 general elections, the government allowed foreign observers and journalists to witness Sunday's polls, which were to replace MPs who gave up their seats to join the government.
A European Union official invited to watch the vote hailed "very encouraging" signs at the roughly dozen polling stations her team visited.
"However, that's definitely not enough to assume that it is indicative of how the process was conducted in other parts of the country and certainly not enough to talk about credibility of elections," Malgorzata Wasilewska said. - AFP

Cape Town -
The three men accused of murdering Bronx nightclub owner Bruno Bronn are to go on trial before Western Cape High Court Judge President John Hlophe on Wednesday.
The trial arising from Bronn's February 2012 murder was to have begun on Monday, but could not as a lawyer for one of the accused, Fareez Allie, was caught up in another matter.
Allie, Johan Coetzer and Achmat Toffa have been charged with murder and aggravated robbery.
Bronn was found dead in his Green Point home. He had been strangled.
The matter has been postponed several times for various reasons, among them that Toffa changed lawyers three times.
First, he could no longer afford a private lawyer, then a Legal Aid lawyer withdrew for health reasons. The third lawyer withdrew without giving reasons in open court.
"It's high time that this matter gets under way," Judge Hlophe said during the men's last court appearance in October.
On Monday, prosecutor Carine Teunissen said the case could not go ahead and asked that the case begin on Wednesday.
Coetzer is out on bail of R20 000 and Allie on R5 000.
Toffa's bail of R15 000 was withdrawn because he failed to adhere to almost all of his bail conditions, which included reporting to the police daily and remaining under house arrest.
He is being held at Pollsmoor Prison.
A fourth man, Kurt Erispe, who was initially charged alongside the trio, has turned State witness.

The actor was almost caught in an accident on Fourth of July when he was vacationing with girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis in Italy.
George Clooney's American Independence Day celebrations almost ended in tragedy on Sunday, July 4 when a firework exploded metres away from his boat at his Italian retreat on Lake Como.
The Hollywood star was watching the light show from the water with a group of friends, including his girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis and actress Uma Thurman. But photos posted on TMZ.com show Clooney and his pals scrambling for safety as one firework explodes close to their vessel, rocking the boat.
As WENN went to press, it was unclear if anyone was injured in the incident.
Clooney is keen on going cruising as a mean for break time. He took both Canalis and his ex girlfriend Karen Duffy to Lake Como late last month.

BASINGSTOKE RFC director of rugby James Croker is facing a selection headache this weekend – but it's a problem that he is happy to have.
'Stoke blew away a strong Hove side last week, winning 52-5 in Sussex to maintain their push for promotion from London One South.
Despite that, Croker admits that he has difficult decisions to make when it comes to picking the team for Saturday's trip to Dover (kick-off 2.15pm) as so many players are putting themselves forward for a place in the team.
"The level of competition in the squad is exceptional," he said. "The second string won really well again last week and those guys are putting so much pressure on the guys in the first team.
"It's got to the point that I still have a selection headache, even when we have won. It's brilliant and I am really excited about the squad at the moment."
One of the stars of the second string's excellent display was centre Matt Guilfoyle, who scored a hat-trick of tries on his return to action after 10 months out with injury.
He was a first team regular last season but could find it difficult to dislodge Freddie Gleadowe and David Byett, who have both been excellent over the course of this campaign.
"Matt Guilfoyle is a good mix of both Freddie and David," Croker added. "He's not quite rugby-fit yet but it is going to be like having a new player and everyone knows what he is capable of."
Croker will be without second row Jake Henderson once more – but fellow lock Andy Hore is back in contention, as is winger Karl Buttle.
That gives Croker another selection dilemma. Buttle is Basingstoke's top scorer and generally seen as the club's first choice winger – but both Gareth Kelly and Gavin Dampies scored tries in his absence last week.
"We have got three excellent wingers, who would be certain to start at any other club in this league," Croker said. "We scored 106 tries last season. This time around, with eight games to go, we have already scored 108, and a lot of that is down to them."
'Stoke go into Saturday's game in Kent just one point behind second-placed Chichester, having won their last four and 12 of their last 13 league games.
However, Dover are also in decent form. They have won four of their last five outings, beating Havant 22-12 last week, and are notoriously strong at home.
"If we do the right things then we should win there," Croker added. "We just have to get our preparation right.
"We need not fear anything going down there. We will respect Dover because they have got a terrific 12 and a pack that look to spoil the game. We have to make sure we don't allow them to do that to us."

text: April 1st marks the start of Earth month and each year when I turn the page of my calendar, it's a subtle reminder to be a little friendlier to our planet and the world around us. For me, there's no easier way to do that than with a sweet-smelling candle (I'm somewhat of a hoarder!) so when I heard about the Aveda Light The Way Candle ($12, aveda.com) it was a no brainer. Not only is it made with 100% reclaimed glass but the carton (which is 70% PCR paperboard) is decorated with artwork by students of the Association School in Ampasimanjeva, Madagascar, a village that has received two Global Greengrants Fund grants for water projects. The children, who previously drank from a dirty, crocodile-infested river, created drawings to show how their lives changed after the community built a safe water source close to home. Every time I light the candle, the Madagascar-inspired blend of vanilla, cinnamon, and ylang-ylang reminds me that I (along with Aveda) am helping those little kids and their community. Aveda will donate 100% of the purchase price to the Global Greengrants Fund, a non-profit organization that channels high-impact grants to grassroots groups working to solve pressing environmental problems. You can get yours starting March 24th or find out more information on the clean-water projects on aveda.com.

I love making jokes and having fun. Life isn't fun without laughter! My favorite people to be around are those who make life fun.
I enjoy surfing, volleyball, and snowboarding sometimes too. I recently got a nicer camera and I love pretending to be a good photographer.
As for music, I listen to mellow/acoustic/singer songwriter stuff, hip hop, classic rock, and other general rock/indie music. Some of my favorites right now are Bon Iver, M83, City and Colour, Iron & Wine, Ray LaMontagne, Queen, Pink Floyd, Neil Young, and of course random 80's/90's music.
I love eating good food. I tend to eat out more than I should. My favorites are Thai, Indian, Pizza, and Mexican food.
1. Random outings with friends
2. Being around people who make life fun
3. Going to the beach
4. Listening to great music
5. Eating good food
6. Going on road trips

Wow. I couldn't ask for a better location than Colorado to photograph my niece, Domonique. She is a senior in college, just about to graduate this Spring! Her whole life lays ahead of her, and I know God has great plans for her. I was so happy to get to ski with her, too, and just spend some good time together!
Yearly Archives: 2011
Tommy was willing to go anywhere I asked him to for pictures. We were just praying not to get run over by a train! 🙂 He is super photogenic, and we got some great photos!
Madison is one of those girls who can hardly take a bad picture. She is a delight, and her positive energy made the day really fun! Can't wait to do this again when it gets warm.
My son came home from college and was kind enough to let me shoot him. Ooops! I mean take his pictures. At least the thermometer was above 40 degrees. Thanks, Taylor!
Working with gorgeous Jenna was so much fun! It was a coooold evening, but Jenna couldn't have been happier than to smile in spite of the frigid temp. We stopped off at Starbucks on the way home for some hot coffee to warm us up again.

Hospira, Inc.
) From Importing Infusion Pump
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has prohibited Hospira Inc from importing its Symbiq medication infusion pumps, which are manufactured in Costa Rica, into the United States, the company said Tuesday in a regulatory filing. Hospira in the filing did not say why the FDA imposed the restriction. A Hospira spokesperson could not be immediately reached. The company said the FDA's action does not restrict importation of its other medication management products, and the company does not expect it will have a material impact on its ability to achieve its 2012 financial projections. In August, Hospira announced it received a warning letter from the FDA over quality problems at the Costa Rica plant where it makes most of its infusion pumps. Among the issues cited were alarm failures on the company's Plum brand of infusion pump. At the time, the company said it was switching alarm components for the Plum pump, which was recalled in February 2011, and expected to complete that process by early 2013.

The Arizona Wildcats have only one senior on their roster this season, but Jordin Mayes has experience that goes beyond his three-plus years in the program.
"Think about this: He played on an Elite Eight" in 2011, UA coach Sean Miller said of Mayes last month. "That seems like 10 years ago. He has the respect of our team quite a bit because he's been through so much."
While Mayes has a quiet personality, that experience alone may help a leadership group that is expected to be headed by guards T.J. McConnell and Nick Johnson.
"I've got a lot of experience under my belt," Mayes said. "Coaches want me to become a leader since I'm the oldest. So I just talk to the young guys, try to get them through the season. It's a long season with ups and downs, so it's just me being vocal and trying to help them the best I can."
Mayes has a lot of experience with those ups and downs. He shot 45.3 percent from three-point range during Pac-10 play as a freshman in 2010-11 and caught fire during the Pac-12 and NCAA tournaments that spring, making 10 three-pointers in a row.
But Mayes underwent surgery for a stress fracture in his foot in the summer of 2011 and he shot just 29 percent from beyond the arc as a sophomore. He continued to struggle as a junior, making just 5 of 23 threes in Pac-12 play but came back to life in the postseason last spring, with eight points against Colorado in the Pac-12 tournament and another eight against Harvard in the NCAA tournament.
He is aiming for a straighter trajectory in his final go-round this season.
"I kinda had my slumps during the season and picked it up in the tournament," Mayes said. "I'm trying to be here through the whole season and not just different parts of the season."
Tickets available
Arizona has less than 1,000 season tickets remaining, with seats available in most sections, according to James Francis, UA's senior associate AD for external relations.
At Saturday's Red-Blue Game, Arizona will place tags on seats that are available for sale and will have sales staffers available.
At 10 a.m. Saturday, Arizona will also put on sale all remaining individual tickets for nonconference home games, plus its four-game "Holiday Packs" and mini-season-ticket plans.
The four-game Holiday Pack includes games against Southern, NAU, Washington State and Washington. The package starts at $64.
The "mini-plan" is for nine games, four of which are Pac-12 contests that may sell out, against Washington, Colorado, Oregon and California. The plan is balanced with the Oct. 28 Augustana exhibition, plus games with Fairleigh Dickinson, Texas Tech, UNLV and Southern.
Phoenix forward trims list to UA, Stanford
Michael Humphrey, a four-star 2014 power forward from Phoenix Sunnyslope, is likely to make a decision after visiting Arizona on Oct. 19, Sunnyslope coach Ray Portella said.
Humphrey cut his list to just Arizona and Stanford last week, while balancing his time between school, recruiting and quarterbacking Sunnyslope's 6-0 football team.
"I think he's going to wait until that (UA visit) and then decide after that," Portella said. "He could make a decision but he's trying to concentrate on football and being a good teammate."
Chicagoans out of mix
Arizona's longshot pursuit of two highly regarded Chicago big men from the class of 2014 has fallen short.
Jahlil Okafor told Scout over the weekend that he's down to Baylor, Duke, Kentucky and Kansas.
And Cliff Alexander posted a Top 5 on Twitter that did not include the Wildcats: Illinois, DePaul, Michigan State, Kansas and Memphis.
Alexander visited UA officially the weekend of Sept. 13. He went to Kansas last weekend and posted his finalists on Monday.
Rim shots
• The Wildcats finished another two-day break Tuesday and are scheduled to practice through Friday before Saturday's Red-Blue scrimmage.
• Five-star 2014 guard Rashad Vaughn of Nevada's Findlay Prep told Scout he is considering a visit to UA, having already set up three of his five official visits elsewhere.
• Washington coach Lorenzo Romar said during the Huskies' media day on Tuesday that the Wildcats are the Pac-12 favorite because "they have about 75 pros on their team," according to the Twitter page of the Seattle Times' Percy Allen.

Oglebay Norton Sells Lawn and Garden Business Unit

Have Relationship Questions? Ask a Counselor for Answers ASAP
Thanks for using JustAnswer.
As you're experiencing - without respect, there is no relationship. So if you can support youself and your childeren - I would suggest leaving, and doing so because it sounds like you'd be happie without him in your life.
But, if you decide to stay - start living your own life... cut him out, stop expecting anything from him - you say he's never on time - don't ask him to do anything - do it on your own - that way, he can't disappoint you by being late.
If he's not wise - don't ask for his opinion on anything
If he's not reliable - don't rely on him for anything - become self-sufficient
If he's a liar - don't give him the chance to lie to you
If he insults the kids - don't let them be around who would do do
If he's lazy - get busy and be gone a lot
And so on.... cut him out of your life - son't have any expectations - that way - he can't disppoint you.

I hope you had a good Valentine's/Singles Appreciation Day. Have you hit up the candy sales? I have not yet, though I don't know how long my willpower in that department will last. Probably about as long as the conversation hearts Mr Official Taster brought home last night.
Speaking of last night, it unfolded about as I predicted. Mr OT came home with flowers (mini carnations and tulips because, in his words, "roses are for suckers." I'm on board since the ones in stores never smell good anyway) and the aforementioned candy, we cooked dinner together, watched some internet tv, cuddled with the dogs, read, etc. The usual. Oh, except I made a card for him. I think it's a pretty good one. (inspiration here).
It didn't take too long and would certainly work for
lots of other occasions. You can substitute all sort of fun things for "Zombies" and "brains." How about: I love you more than dogs love peanut butter or I love you more than moms love chocolate or I love you more than a hipster loves plaid. See? The options are endless.
I just printed out a picture of a brain I liked (thanks, Google), cut it out with some fancy scrapbooking scissors and pasted it onto some dark blue cardstock. Then I created a Word doc and typed my message and picked a font. In this case, I only used half the paper by creating two columns in Word and just using one. I cut the red paper to 8.5x11 in and printed directly onto it. Then, I cut off the blank half to save for something else later. I glued the blue cardstock onto the red paper. Finally, I traced over the black ink with a white gel pen to make it stand out better. You could totally make something like this if you wanted! Adjust the words, size, colors, etc to suit.
This wasn't dinner last night, but it was on Monday and it turned out pretty well. I made it again for lunch today - it's that quick+easy. It was a pain to photograph, though. I wish the pasta pictures showed the green better. I'm not sure why and it made me really grumpy, but it really does look green in person. This photo of just the sauce is pretty true-to-life.
When I had leftovers for a snack on Tuesday, I didn't even heat it up. It worked well as a cold pasta salad, so there's another serving option for you.
adapted from Oh She Glows
Update 2/23/12: I made this again last night and increased the garlic and added chili powder and fresh parsley. Even more delicious!
8 oz regular or gluten free pasta*
1 ripe avocado, skinless and pitt-less
juice of 1/2 a lemon (2ish tsp), plus zest for garnish**
3, more or less, garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
2 Tbsp olive or avocado oil
1/4 C fresh basil (optional)***
fresh ground pepper
Cook pasta according to package directions.
While that's happening, add avocado, lemon juice, garlic, salt, oil, and basil if using, to the bowl of a food processor. Process until everything is creamy and delicious looking. You may need to scrape the bowl down a time or two. If you don't have a food processor, you should be able to mash everything together with a masher or fork as long as you use a ripe avocado.
Once pasta is cooked, drain and then pour back into (empty) pot. Add avocado mixture and stir until pasta is evenly coated. Garnish with fresh ground black pepper, lemon zest, and/or some Romano cheese.
*I use about 8oz when I'm making a main course for two. Feel free to play with these numbers. However, I don't recommend using more than 1 avocado to serve 2. I thought it sounded like a good idea and was actually too avocado-y, which I didn't know was possible.
**The lemon juice is important because it keeps the avocado from turning brown, which would make leftovers super unappealing. It also adds a little lemony kick, which is always good.
***Oh She Glows used basil, and while it sounded fabulous, I didn't have any, so I can't offer guidance there. But I bet it would be yummy.
