New signage for bus lanes
Bus lane enforcement in Birmingham city centre began in September after a big awareness campaign over the summer. Unfortunately concerns were raised in November over multiple trigger points and a number of appeals were also made by individuals to the independent adjudicator.
In February the independent adjudicator confirmed that the majority of the signage was compliant and sufficiently visible but identified concerns at three sites.
Cllr Tahir Ali, cabinet member for Development, Transport & the Economy at Birmingham City Council said: "We have listened to the adjudicator and not only carried out his recommendations but put even more signs up to make sure drivers can understand them and not contravene the bus lanes.
"I am now happy that the signage goes beyond what is required and we have noticed that fewer drivers are encroaching on bus lanes so will begin to enforce the bus lane regulations again.
"I would also add that it's important that people realise why we're doing this. If motorists adhere to bus lanes, and the majority do, they help ease the city's congestion problems, encourage use of public transport and lower the city's pollution levels."

3. Taxes and your budget
Although taxes vary among the millions of people in America, one of the largest bills for many households is Uncle Sam. Americans are expected to pay about $4.8 trillion in federal, state, and local taxes. That's equal to roughly 31% of the nation's income. As the chart above shows, Americans will spend more on their taxes then on food, clothing, and housing combined. Although, there are numerous strategies through careful planning to legally help lower your tax bill.

Anyone else having problems migrating to ServiceStack 4 in SF 7? I have 30 some services that I register in global.asax.cs like this:
However, the third plugin (ADDServicePlugin in this case) never loads correctly. It only loads the Get route and not POST, PUT, & DELETE. However, if I rearrange the order to say:
ADDServicePlugin will load fine but ActivityServicePlugin will only load the Get route. Anyone have any clues? I'm not getting any exceptions or errors in the sitefinity log. I have no idea of the error (or is there another place to check to track in debugging?). Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
Turns out I was hitting the ServiceStack quota. I purchased a license to confirm and everything worked as expected. It was my understanding that Telerik purchased a ServiceStack license for us to use. Is this not the case or is it a limited version? Is this a bug or am I using ServiceStack incorrectly?
In version 7.0 we ship Sitefinity with all settings needed to activate the paid license for ServiceStack therefore you won't need to buy it separately. Could you make sure that you have upgraded your project following all of the requirements described in our documentation:
Also could you provide us with your web.config file so we can take a look at it and see what may cause the described issue?

A Theology of the Built Environment
Full Product Description
In this 2002 book, Tim Gorringe reflects theologically on the built environment as a whole. Drawing on a wide range of both theological and social-scientific sources, Professor Gorringe explores Christianity in its urban settings, focussing on the use of space, design, architecture, and town planning to make a theological critique. After considering the divine grounding of constructed space, he looks at the ownership of land, the issues of housing, town and country, and the city, and then considers the built environment in terms of community and art. The book concludes with two chapters that set the whole within the framework of the environmental crisis and asks what directions the Church should be looking for in building for the future. This interesting book will challenge not only theologians, ethicists and sociologists of religion but also church teachers and professionals.
A Theology of the Built Environment by T. J. Gorringe was published by Cambridge University Press (Virtual Publishing) in September 2009. The ISBN for A Theology of the Built Environment is 9780511487712.

Birth control pills - risks vs. benefits
Hi. My friend is a 31 yr old female (lesbian) and obviously has never been on birth control pills. Her mother (age 55) was just diagnosed with breast cancer. I know that there is not a strong link between breast cancer and taking birth control - but one of the huge benefits of being on the pill - is reducing risk of ovarian cancer later on in life. Is that benefit alone worth her going on a low dose for a year? We would love any thoughts...
The risk of breast cancer while taking OCPs is outweighed by the benefit in ovarian cancer reduction. I wouldn't consider taking oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) just for the reduction in ovarian cancer risk unless someone is know to be at high risk like being positive for the breast/ovarian/colon cancer mutation BRCA.

WBEZ News
Prentice Hospital will get a redo from Landmarks Commission
The Commission on Chicago Landmarks will soon revisit its decision to reject preliminary landmark status for the old Prentice Women's Hospital.
Commissioners will take on the future of Prentice at their February 7th meeting.
The agenda, which was posted last Friday, includes two separate items that refer to the distinctive building, including "a revised report from the Department of Housing and Economic Development."
Last November, the Commission granted – and then immediately revoked – preliminary landmark status for the clover-shaped hospital. The decision was followed by a lawsuit against the Commission on behalf of preservationists who want to save Prentice.
Earlier this month, Cook County Judge Neil Cohen dismissed the lawsuit, but called the Commission's actions "arbitrary" and "not transparent."
Michael Rachlis is spokesman for the Save Prentice Coalition. He says the Commission's decision to include Prentice on its next agenda is clear acknowledgement there was a problem last time around.
"However, [because of] how they're going about doing that, and putting forward what is very similar to the prior report and its unsupported nature, one could well be pessimistic," Rachlis said. "But we certainly are hopeful that there's going to be an open, transparent and non-preordained process."
The Save Prentice Coalition says the upcoming meeting is still in violation of the Landmarks Ordinance.
In a statement, the group says the Landmarks Commission "must hold a full hearing on Prentice, allow the Coalition to present evidence regarding the architectural value and integrity of this unique architectural milestone, and base their decision on the criteria set forth in the ordinance."
Prentice has been at the center of a heated debate between preservationists and Northwestern University for the last two years.
Northwestern wants to tear down the Bertrand Goldberg-designed building to make room for a new research facility.

Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt Sent Love Letters To Each Other
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt kept their romance alive while shooting films on two different continents last year (13) by sending each other handwritten love letters.
The Salt star was directing Unbroken, a biopic about Olympic athlete and World War II hero Louis Zamperini, in Australia, while her fiance Pitt was on the other side of the world in London, shooting his own Nazi war film, Fury.
The Hollywood actors decided to embrace the time period their onscreen dramas were set in and shunned modern technology in favour of writing sweet notes to one another by mail.
Jolie tells Australia's TV Week magazine, "He was supportive from a distance, and it was quite romantic in a way.
"We decided to be of that time, when we could imagine he was in the European theatre and I was in the Pacific theatre, and we wrote handwritten letters to each other that were very connecting for us, thinking of the people that were separated for months, if not years, at a time back then."
The couple has been engaged since 2012.

[22 July 2008]
The Smithereens are a great power-pop bar band. That may read like an oxymoron, but it's the truth. Vocalist Pat DiNizio might sing the lost-my-girl-blues with songs like "Only a Memory" and "Drown in My Own Tears", but his fellow band mates—guitarist Jim Babjak, drummer Dennis Diken, and bassist Severo Jornacion—also help him work up a powerful head of steam. Sure, you can pick up these songs on a greatest hits collection. But it's far better when DiNizio sings his great line, "She stood just like Bill Wyman", in front of a sweaty, beer-soaked audience. Many of these songs are a few decades old now, but you wouldn't gather that from this live date. It still sounds like there are a few open wounds left. Better still, in addition to the group's high-powered musical pain formula, there's also a cover of the Batman theme tacked on at the end.

Challah is a loaf of braided bread made from eggs, white wheat flour, water and sugar. It is eaten by Ashkenazi and most Sephardic Jews on holidays and the day before the Sabbath and on the Sabbath proper.
Symbolic Significance
Traditionally, two loaves of challah are prepared and blessed to commemorate the double portion of manna that fell from Heaven the day before the Sabbath during the 40-year period the Israelites wandered in the wilderness.
Historical Significance
Traditionally, the challah was a small piece of dough separated from the rest of the dough as a tithe for the priests. This act was abandoned upon the destruction of the temple, and though a small piece of dough is still removed, it is discarded, and the whole loaves of bread are referred to as "challah."
Rosh Hashanah
In addition to being eaten on Friday evenings before the Sabbath, challah is also prepared for Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year). The braided loaf is formed into a circle to represent life without end and a year of uninterrupted health and happiness.
Shabbat Mevarchim
Shabbat Mevarchim falls on the first Sabbath after Passover. During this holiday, a loaf of what is known as schlissel challah, or key challah, is prepared by either baking a key into the loaf of bread or baking a key formed from dough onto the top of the loaves.
Challah Variations
Today, challah variations abound with eggless recipes, recipes using oat or spelt flour in lieu of white wheat flour, and honey or molasses being used to sweeten the loaf instead of the traditional sugar. Some loaves will be topped with sesame seeds or poppy seeds and can include raisins or chopped dates.
Accompanying Dishes
In Ashkenazi homes, challah will usually accompany a meal of fish or chicken, or a bean and potato main dish. Kugel is also commonly served with challah. During Rosh Hashanah, sweet dishes, such as apples dipped in honey, are preferred.

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
first thing to do is remove the back panel in the freezer section and check the frost on the coils, tell me what it looks like. also pull the refrigerator away from the wall and listen to the compressor . is it cycling on and off/ is there a click or a buzz comming from it? is the fan next to the compressor running? let me know, thanks Bryan
Is it the door switches on both fridge and freezer sides? If I simply remove the switches will the fridge and freezer operate in the mean time?
it should run if you were able to keep the switch in the out position like when the door is open, I don't believe however taking the switch all the way out will work because it feeds power to the board for the compressor. maybe you can get the switch out enough it the wires are long enough and tape it inside the freezer for now, if you know electrical you can find which two are connected when the door is open and jump those two together.
Hi Bryan, Thank you for your help. I have managed to get the fridge/freezer working by leaving the switches connected and removing the light bulbs from inside the fridge and freezer to eliminate their heating effect. I pulled both door switches from the freezer and fridge side out but left them connected to the wires. This means that the door switches are connected but in the door open position. This is of course not a long term solution. The water and ice dispenser will not work as there seems to be an overide which prevents the water dispenser from working while the door is open. In any event, I will try to get hold of the switches (I am in UK) and hopefully that will resolve the problem properly. I did try to jump between the common and NO of the freezer door switch but that did not work - as soon as I closed the fridge door, the compressor stopped.
PS I removed the switches and tested them with a continuity tester and they seemed to work fine, however it might be that the door is not closing the switch enough. I will try to tape an additional spacer on the door to make sure the switch is being fully depressed. I will accept your answer in any event, thanks, XXXXX XXXXX - email [email protected].

Most folks will wait until they get to the picnic to pop that first beer this Fourth of July weekend. It is against the law to operate a motor vehicle in Florida with an open container of alcohol.
But if you travel by boat, or plan a party aboard your vessel, it is not illegal for the operator to be drinking an alcoholic beverage — it is, however, illegal to drive a boat while drunk.
"A lot of people don't think twice about it," said Capt. Tom Shipp of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. "But whether you are in a boat or a car, the impairment is still the same."
Boating Under the Influence, or BUI, is a serious problem, especially here in Florida, which has more registered boats than any other state.
"We see an increase nationally during the summer months," said John Fetterman, a former Maine marine officer who now works for the National Association of Boating Law Administrators. "And statistically, alcohol-related arrests and accidents peak on the Fourth of July."
Increased enforcement
Local, state and federal law enforcement agencies will have an increased presence on the water this holiday weekend and boaters should be prepared for routine safety inspections.
"If an officer finds that you are impaired, your day will be interrupted, your boat could be impounded, the party is over," Fetterman said. "It is just not worth the risk."
And officers don't need to make an operator walk a straight line to determine if they are impaired. A recent three-year study administered by the U.S. Coast Guard has developed a set of standards that allow marine patrol officers to test boaters in a seated position and apply a "percentage of probability" that the operator has a blood alcohol content of .08 or higher.
If you are convicted of boating under the influence, you can be fined, jailed and lose your boating privileges for life.
Aggravating factors
Alcohol and/or drugs are a factor in roughly one out of four fatal boating accidents, Shipp said.
"They can impair a boat operator's vision and reaction time," Shipp said. "Sun, wind, fatigue and other factors can intensify the effects."
Alcohol can affect you differently on the water than on dry land for a lot of reasons. Plus, it can be harder for you to realize you're impaired, until it's too late. Here's why:
• "Wave action, the vibration of the motor, the added noise ... these are all stressors that can distract a boater under normal conditions," Shipp said. "Adding alcohol to the mix just aggravates the problem."
• Alcohol consumption can create an inner ear disturbance which can make it difficult for a person suddenly thrown into the water to distinguish up from down, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
• Being impaired can be more dangerous for drivers of boats than automobiles because most people have less experience and confidence on the water than they do in a car. Even if you're an avid boater, can you say you spend more time on the boat than driving your car?
• Dehydration can also lead to impairment. Sun and heat — exactly what you get plenty of on a boat in the summer — cause fluid loss, and dehydration increases with alcohol use. The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism recommends that if you do drink, make every other one a non-alcoholic one. Given how hot it will be this weekend, you'd do well to up your ratio of no-alcohol beverages.

How to set your gym apart from the competition
We all face competition daily when training in martial arts, but competition with another gym for business can sometimes be an even tougher challenge. A lot of times other near by martial art gyms start new classes that infringe on your territory or new gyms open up close to your area and it can be alarming. Here are some simple tips to concentrate on when figuring out how to market against your competition.
Emphasize your gym's strengths
Across your entire marketing plan, website, brochures, T-shirts, etc. You need to emphasize what your gym is the best at. To stick out against your competitors you need to be different, you can't just market the same stuff as your competition and be generic; you need to show potential members why your gym is special. An example could be if you had a world class kick boxing instructor and a great striking team, you would want to make it known that you have this specific strength at your gym. You must to invest in your gym's strengths to seem special and separate yourself from other gyms in your area.
Maintain an active social media presence
It is essential these days to have a quality social media presence. A lot of martial arts gyms have social media accounts but aren't using them properly. You need to be actively engaging people in conversation and posting content that will be shared by people that will broaden your reach, which in turn will build your audience. If you take 15 minutes a day to make some posts and answer some messages, it will greatly enhance your presence, and make your gym seem more approachable from an Internet point of view. And as for choosing which platforms to use, stick with Facebook and YouTube, that is where a big part of the martial art community is. A quality social media presence will give you a great advantage over your competition.
Be kind to new people
This might seem like an absolute no brainer, however, being kind and personable to new people goes a long way! You need to make people feel comfortable right when they walk into your gym, and get to know them. You can humble them later when you spar, but before then, there is no reason not to be nice. Also, make sure you get their contact information and follow up with them immediately, even if they don't return. If they don't want to come back, ask why, and get some useful feedback that can better your gym. The more kind, personable and genuine you can be, the better your chances of crushing your competition!
These tips will start giving you advantage over your local competition.

Please confirm that you want to add Raising Responsible, Emotionally Mature Children to your Wishlist.
Parenting is tough and mistakes made in a moment can take years to repair. Therefore, learning the skills of effective parenting will be one of the most worthwhile ventures you ever pursue.
Roger K. Allen, PhD, has studied family relationships for many years and developed a time-tested set of tools to help parents succeed in raising responsible, emotionally mature children. Replete with examples and case studies, his time-proven course gives you concrete strategies you can immediately put into practice.
We know that good communication is at the heart of a healthy family. But so often our natural tendencies are to either over control or cave-in and overindulge our children. Either way, our children either fail to learn from their experiences or grow in emotional maturity and self-responsibility.
Dr. Allen will teach you skills to establish loving authority in your home, put an end to conflict and power struggles, and communicate with your children (from toddlers to teens) in ways that solve problems, build trust, enhance self-worth, and help your children learn personal responsibility. Are you ready to start the journey?
The purpose of this course is to help you learn principles and communication skills to create a happy and nurturing climate within your home.
This video provides a few suggestions how you can get the most from your investment in this course. A few tips about taking notes, completing the exercises, and referring to the supplied PDF reference guides are included.
Our primary goal, as we parent, is the development of our children.
Families vary on two dimensions: how responsive we are to our children and how demanding we are. These dimensions result in four styles of parenting: uninvolved, permissive, authoritarian, and nurturing.
I will help you understand the characteristics of a permissive climate and share examples of parenting young children and teens when we are permissive.
I describe the characteristics and give examples of an authoritarian family climate.
I help you understand how nurturing parents communicate and interact with their children.
This is a downloadable/printable PDF of the Family Climate Summary Chart.
You'll learn the nine principles of a nurturing home and the relationship between these principles and family outcomes.
This is a downloadable/printable PDF which contains more detailed information about the Nine Principles of a Nurturing Home.
You'll complete an exercise to make your day-to-day behavior correspond with the principles of a nurturing home.
This is a PDF worksheet for you to complete which contains the If-Then exercises.
Key moments are upsetting situations or events when it's easy to get hooked and react to our children. As we learn to handle them well, we use them to help our children grow in responsibility and emotional maturity.
This is a reference guide which summarizes the Key Moment Model.
This is a reference guide containing detailed information about overmanaging and overindulging.
We respond very differently if our primary goal is maturation rather than solving problems, during key moments.
You will learn the three skill sets that form the foundation of all positive parent-child interactions.
A document summarizing the skills we use to stengthen our children during key moments.
The objectives of our communication are more than solving the immediate problem. It includes building trust, enhancing self-worth, and fostering maturation.
This quiz will check to see how well you are remembering the basic concepts of this course, for sections 1-4.
We use these skills to create an atmosphere of unconditional love, mutual respect and acceptance in which our children develop emotional literacy and the ability to deal with the challenges of their lives.
Respecting is more than a communication technique. It is recognizing and communicating the inherent goodness and capability of each family member.
Affirming is using non-verbals as well as verbal comments to express our love and reinforce desired behaviors in our children.
Listening is suspending judgment and being fully present with a child to understand her experience or point of view. Children mature as they feel validated through good listening responses.
Mirroring is matching a child's emotions, gestures, facial expressions, etc. to get into deep rapport and help them work through troubling emotions.
Supporting is asking questions about how we might be helpful rather than guessing or taking over.
This is a document you can refer to for a summary/overview of the empathy skills.
As parents, we need to be honest with our children about our own feelings and perceptions. The purpose is to expand their awareness and also take care of our own needs.
Disclosing is being truthful about our own experience so our children are not in the dark and guessing (or not caring) about what's going on inside of us.
Care-fronting is giving feedback about behavior that is either outside our child's awareness, is harmful to others, or interferes with our needs as parents.
Reproving is a direct confrontation of a clearly inappropriate behavior.
A PDF reference guide to help your understand and apply the elements of the reproving skill.
Negotiating agreements enables us to work through conflicts to solutions we can all support. The skill also helps our children learn skills in dialogue and collaboration and take ownership of their commitments.
This is a document which contains details about the negotiating skill discussed in this section.
We use Harnessing Harmful Behavior with challenging or defiant children in order to help them stop manipulating and learn better strategies for dealing with their problems and negative emotions.
This is a document which provides detailed information about how to harness harmful behavior.
This document provides a summary of the Honesty skills discussed in this section of the course.
Creating structure is a way we bring discipline and accountability into the lives of our children.
Setting expectations and enforcing consequences teach children the cause effect relationship between their choices and consequences as well as necessity of respecting the inevitable boundaries (rules) of life.
We end up being wishy-washy and renegotiating everything if our expectations are not clear. We'll learn how to establish expectations that are both clear and understood by our children.
This document is a reference guide for enforcing consequences.
We help children grow as we encourage age-appropriate choices and allow them to "own" and solve their problems.
Questions, rather than lecturing, enable children to think deeply about their lives, identify what is important to them, options available to them, and actions to make good things happen.
This PDF document provides information about how to ask valuing questions.
This document provides a summary and review of the Responsibility Skills.
Good parenting is not as much about getting our children to be different as getting ourselves to be different. By changing ourselves, our own emotional reactions, our relationships change.
This document provides details about the process: Stop - Look - Listen - Choose.
This quiz will check to see how well you are remembering the basic concepts of this course, for sections 5-8.
We bring it all together in this last lecture by reviewing the relationship between our principles, behaviors (communication skills) and outcomes of our parenting.
This document provides information about the HERO Principle.
This docuemnt includes a chart listing the behavior and related outcomes in a nurturing family.

The Bristol-based agency, which has already worked on The Number's internal communications programme, will be redesigning the corporate site. There is a second site for consumers, the118118experience.com, which features the moustachioed stars of The Number's television commercials, created by WCRS. Neither site allows users to do a search online.
Dutton Merrifield has been briefed to inject more brand personality into the site, making it more interactive and explaining what The Number has to offer in a clear, light-hearted way.
Dutton Merrifield won the account after a two-way pitch. Claire Goldsmith, UK marketing projects manager of The Number, said: "Dutton Merrifield won the pitch as it has already demonstrated a solid understanding of our brand. We have been extremely impressed with the work it has produced so far and were keen for it to get involved in other areas of our business."
One of WCRS's 118 118 ads is a spoof of the award-winning Honda "cog" ad, created by Wieden & Kennedy London. It was created for television, but Honda failed to see the humorous side and stopped the ad from being broadcast. It is now, however, available for view online and is being promoted through a viral campaign.

The identities of two men killed Tuesday when their car ran off northbound Interstate 215 in Sun City were released by authorities.
Philip Molitor, 55, and Jonathon LaRue, 19, both of Murrieta, were pronounced dead at the scene of the 12:19 p.m. accident, according to the Riverside County coroner's office.
The third person in the car, a 21-year old Murrieta woman, sustained major injures, authorities said. An update on her condition was not available.
It has not been determined who was driving at the time of the crash, authorities said.
Both men were partially thrown from the vehicle after the driver drifted left into the center median, then swerved to the right and lost control, just south of McCall Boulevard, officials said.
The car, a 1993 Mercedes, then traveled across the northbound lanes and over the paved shoulder, where it became airborne crossing a ditch, hitting an embankment and overturning, authorities said.
None of the people in the car was wearing a seat belt, investigating officers said.


text: I've had my Galaxy S for 3 or 4 months at this point and it's been great, but a few days ago it started giving me trouble when plugging it in to my computer at night to charge. My computer (with Windows 7 x64) would not recognize the phone at first and I'd have to unplug and plug it back in before it would work. Last night my computer stopped recognizing my phone entirely (it gives me the USB device not recognized popup and says my hardware is malfunctioning) and my phone does not respond when plugged into the computer. When I plugged it into the wall instead at first it still didn't respond, then the battery indicator started blinking between half-full and blue and red and empty, and the flash on my phone turned itself on. I shut the phone down and restarted it and got it to charge, but the flash kept going on and off on its own for about 5 minutes after it was plugged in. Today when I went to listen to some music my phone said that there is no SD card inserted (I have a 16GB Samsung SD card that I got with the phone) and plugging it into the computer does nothing except tell me that I should replace my hardware. Is there a solution to this at all, or am I going to have to replace something and if so, what?

Patton Joins Staff
James Patton joined the Hoosiers coaching staff as recruiting coordinator, special teams coordinator and assistant defensive line coach in the offseason.
Patton has 14 years of experience in the Midwest, spending seven as a player and coach at Miami (Ohio) University and seven as an assistant coach at Northwestern University. He coached the offensive line at the University of Oklahoma from 2006-12.
Patton has coached in 10 bowl games and on six conference championship teams. He spent six years with IU head coach Kevin Wilson at Miami (1990-94, 98), three at Northwestern (1999-2001) and five at Oklahoma (2006-10).
Returning Yards
Indiana fielded the youngest team in the country in 2012. Here is what returns:
• 1,595 of 1,570 rushing yards (101.6%)
• 5,329 of 5,304 total yards (100.5)
• all of IU's 21 rushing TDs (100.0)
• all of IU's 331 completions, 3,734 passing yards and 24 passing TDs (100.0)
• 394 of 399 rushing attempts (98.8)
• 960 of 973 kick return yards (98.7)
• 363 of 369 points (98.4)
• 6,291 of 6,473 all-purpose yards (97.2)
• 23 of 24 receiving TDs (95.8)
• 3,549 of 3,734 receiving yards (95.1)
• 308 of 331 receptions (93.1)
Let's Talk Offense
In his first season as offensive coordinator in 2012, Seth Littrell brought an aerial assault to Bloomington.
• The Hoosiers led the Big Ten in passing offense (311.2), which ranked 17th nationally. They finished second in total offense (442.0) and fourth in scoring offense (30.8) in conference play.
• Indiana set program records for passing yardage (3,734), total offense (5,304), completions (331), attempts (540) and total plays (939).
• IU improved by 9.4 points (15th most improved in FBS) and 111.8 passing yards per game (3rd) and threw 14 more TD passes (T-9th) vs. 2011.
Offensive Strikes
The Hoosiers offense lit up the scoreboard and did so quickly in 2012:
• Indiana had 12 TD drives under 60 seconds, 23 TD drives under 90 seconds, 11 of which covered at least 70 yards in six-or-fewer plays. IU also had 17 TD drives of five plays or fewer.
• The Hoosiers ran one play every 20.3 seconds.
• Thirty-seven of Indiana's final 44 scoring drives (29 TDs) and 44 overall (34 TDs) took three minutes or less.
• IU made significant strides in several categories from 2011 (2012 listed first):
• Points: 30.8 - 21.4
• Passing Yards: 311.2 - 199.4
• Total Yards: 442.0 - 360.4
• Completion %: 61.3 - 55.8
• Plays: 78.3 - 72.5
• Indiana had 24 passing touchdowns, which tied for second in the Big Ten, after throwing just 10 in all of 2011, and it had 46 total touchdowns after recording just 31 in 2011.
• The Hoosiers had 31 70-plus yard scoring drives in 2012 after totaling just 18 in 2011.
• Despite trailing its opponents in time of possession (26:31-33:29), Indiana led its opponents in plays per game (78.3-75.8) and was nearly even in first downs per game (22.8-24.0).
Climbing The Charts
Three Hoosiers sit in the school's career top 10 in several categories. Below is where they rank:
Mitch Ewald
• T-3rd - Field Goals (44)
• 4th - Extra Points (105)
• 6th - Points (237)
Stephen Houston
• 6th - Rushing TDs (20)
• 7th - Total TDs (24)
Shane Wynn
• 7th - Kick Return Yards (1,195)
Five Hoosiers will have the opportunity to reach 100 receptions and 1,000 yards in 2013. Only 18 players have ever obtained both milestones in their Indiana careers.
• Senior WR Kofi Hughes (85, 1,217)
• Senior TE Ted Bolser (82, 1,017)
• Junior WR Shane Wynn (87, 857)
• Senior WR Duwyce Wilson (72, 935)
• Junior WR Cody Latimer (63, 946)
Bolser became the third tight end in school history and the 36th player overall to reach 1,000 career receiving yards in 2012, joining Bob Stephenson (1,252 from 1978-81) and Dave Lilja (1,045 from 1984-86). His 1,017 yards are 35th all-time, his nine TDs are an Indiana tight end record, and his 82 receptions are second to Stephenson (115) on the tight ends list.
Hughes became the 35th Hoosier to surpass the 1,000-yard career mark and is 24th all-time with his 1,217 yards.
All-Big Ten Honors
Indiana senior defensive tackle Adam Replogle and sophomore wide receiver Cody Latimer earned second team All-Big Ten honors in 2012.
Seven additional Hoosiers received honorable mention recognition. The nine honorees were the most for the IU program since 2001, when 12 Hoosiers collected league laurels.
Replogle earned second team accolades from the conference coaches and media, while Latimer was recognized as a second-teamer by the media and was an honorable mention selection by the coaches.
Junior tight end Ted Bolser (coaches and media), junior kicker Mitch Ewald (media), true freshman right guard Dan Feeney (coaches and media), junior safety Greg Heban (media), fifth-year senior center Will Matte (media), true freshman left tackle Jason Spriggs (coaches and media) and sophomore wide receiver Shane Wynn (media) were honorable mention All-Big Ten.
Indiana's six honorees on offense and three honorees on the offensive line were also the most since the 2001 team had eight and five, respectively.
2013 Signing Class
Twenty-two student-athletes signed National Letters of Intent to play for the Hoosiers in 2013. Three members of the class, linebackers Steven Funderburk and T.J. Simmons, and defensive lineman Jordan Heiderman are enrolled.
IU signed 13 defensive players, five offensive players and four athletes. Indiana added six defensive linemen, four linebackers and three defensive backs on defense and two tight ends, two wide receivers and one running back on offense.
The class features players from eight different states, including five from Indiana, five from Florida, four from Georgia, four from Ohio, one from Illinois, one from Nebraska, one from Louisiana and one from New York.

It has become fashionable to vilify Kansas-based Koch Industries, Inc., a privately held multinational that earns its billions in energy, manufacturing and trading, and whose heads, brothers Charles and David H. Koch, are not shy about using their wealth to lobby for their favored politicians and causes, many of which are fairly labeled as conservative.
Some critics, including entertainer Harry Belafonte, have gone so far as to call the Koch brothers racists.
We don't agree with the critics, but we mention them to explain why some might have been shocked when, on June 6, the Charles Koch Foundation donated $25 million to the United Negro College Fund for scholarships and support of the nation's historically black colleges and universities.
"We have tremendous respect for UNCF," Charles Koch said, "and we are hopeful this investment will further its effectiveness in helping students pursue their dreams."
Not everyone is happy. The president of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees union, Lee Saunders, has announced that because UNCF accepted the money, AFSCME will end its support to UNCF, which was $50,000 to $60,000 annually.
We see no reason that Americans of all political persuasions cannot support educational programs that provide broader opportunity. Education, liberty, and building a better nation are not about agreeing on every issue. They are not about the size of the check. They are not about segregating our philanthropy.
UNCF has done tremendous work since its founding in 1944. Koch Industries has seen tremendous success since its founding in 1940. The brothers' donation does not come with strings attached, or ideological litmus tests. It is a generous and welcome gift to promote education, training, and leadership.
Whatever their differences may be, we hope Americans of good will can agree on that much.

Ben the Bear finds new home in California
Posted August 14, 2012
Fayetteville, N.C. — A bear that was held captive for years in Cumberland County is now at his new home on the West coast.
Ben the Bear arrived at a bear sanctuary in California via FedEx.
The 550-pound bear had been living in a cage at Jambbas Ranch in Fayetteville since 2006. The animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, however, alleged that Ben's living conditions were cruel.
Earlier this year, celebrity PETA activist Bob Barker, former host of "The Price is Right," wrote a letter to the Cumberland County Board of Commissioners calling the bear's treatment "miserable and unnatural."
A judge ruled ranch owner James Bass II violated state animal cruelty laws by not providing appropriate care. The judge granted temporary custody to two people fighting to free the bear.

Bonne Vie Salon
To uphold its promise of delivering a New York–style salon experience, Bonne Vie Salon adopted many of its stylists from the city after they earned certifications from Vidal Sassoon and Frederic Fekkai. The salon's décor also suggests grandeur worthy of the Big Apple: a golden chandelier, sandy-colored columns, and a flood of natural light greet clients as they enter the 1,800-square-foot space.
The setting befits the salon's high-end services, which include trendy Japanese straightening treatments and a hot cutting method that uses scissors heated above 200 degrees to slice through hair without damaging the ends. Italian-made, naturally derived Davines products supplement each service, bathing locks in luxury so that clients don't have to don a top hat full of caviar.
Recently awarded Best of 2013 Winter Park by Orlando Magazine, the salon sits next to an expanse of reserved parking for clients, as well as restaurants, galleries, and museums. Many of Bonne Vie's hairdressers speak two or even three languages, transforming styling sessions into learning experiences for clients who want to brush up on their wookiee snarls.

Deaths of 8 kids put agency in jeopardy | Oct. 9
Work to end cycle of abuse
Life is precious. Children are precious. And when the life of a child is lost to senseless and evil violence, it jars our equilibrium. It also spurs action, however brief, sporadic or overdue it may sometimes seem.
Hillsborough Kids Inc. now finds itself in the place that every child welfare agency in America knows it could soon inhabit. Child deaths are so random and unpredictable that agencies routinely run risk assessments and face skyrocketing liability insurance costs that threaten their very existence. A difficult economy and high rates of domestic violence appear to trigger higher child deaths as agencies struggle with more referrals, reduced budgets and high staff turnover.
We agree with Florida Department of Children and Families Secretary David Wilkins' goals of revamping the state's child abuse hotline and upping expectations and salaries of DCF case investigators. At the same time, it must be recognized that case managers, who are employees of community agencies, are also on the front line of the battle to protect children. Following DCF's initial risk assessments, these case managers — widely known to be woefully underpaid and greatly overworked — assume 24/7 responsibility for dire family situations for months on end.
Emerging from a childhood that inflicted abuse upon my siblings and me, I have devoted my life to finding ways to end the generational cycle of child abuse. Like many others in our field, I see opportunities for child protection services to become increasingly effective.
Chief among needed changes is an increase in face-to-face time with children and their families. According to a recent study by the Florida Coalition for Children, case managers spend in excess of 22 hours per week on documentation and administration required to comply with statute or contract. More than 17 hours are spent in court, in multiagency meetings and driving to and from their required activities. Alarmingly, this totals 39 hours of work without the time spent visiting with approximately 20 children for whose lives they are responsible.
Florida has built a community-based child welfare network that receives national acclaim. But the randomness and unpredictability of child deaths means we must be ever vigilant in finding solutions that will increasingly protect children. And our fixes must be embraced by all partners, not placed at the feet of a few.
David A. Bundy, president and CEO, Children's Home Society of Florida, Winter Park
The economy
Values restoration
A recent letter called for a conservative "values restoration" to our economic fabric.
How ironic that the same day's newspaper reports that in the worst recession since the Great Depression, the number of people making more than $1 million in salary soared by more than 18 percent since 2009. Meanwhile, half of U.S. workers earn less than $26,364, 5.2 million jobs have been lost since 2007, and 14 million are unemployed.
"Values restoration" is indeed needed. But this has nothing to do with individual savings rates, entitlement cuts, delayed gratification or decreasing government regulation.
In an America where the rich are getting richer and the middle class getting poorer, "values restoration" needs to come to politicians who continue to tout the "big lie" that tax cuts for rich people and corporations lead to job creation. We have had a decade of that, and where are the jobs?
Values restoration must mean true representation and a good-faith attempt to move forward to restore the basic American values of honesty and fairness.
K.A. Knop, St. Pete Beach
Internet sales tax
Good for the state
I almost never agree with the Chamber of Commerce, but its proposal to apply state sales tax to Internet purchases is a great idea — it closes the budget gap, helps Main Street merchants and creates 50,000 jobs.
The Florida Chamber estimates that enforcing the sales tax on Internet sales could raise $1.5 billion, about three quarters of next year's estimated shortfall in the state budget. That translates to increased local sales of around $21 billion, and at $400,000 in sales for each new store job, that's 50,000 new jobs. The only barriers are the Legislature, where Republicans hate taxes, and the governor, who wants to eliminate his own government. Internet sales taxes, good for everyone except Grover Norquist, deserve more than knee-jerk rejection.

Focus on how Gadhafi died Oct. 22
Rejoice and move on
Why the concern over how Moammar Gadhafi died? Obviously, he was shot by the Libyan rebels, and we'll probably never know how or whom. Why do we care? Gadhafi was a bloody-handed dictator, responsible for the murder of thousands of his countrymen, plus several hundred other people over Lockerbie, Scotland.
He deserved to die, and if one of his own people — a rebel — shot him "out of hand," execution-style, good for him. An evil man is dead, freeing his people to hopefully build a free, democratic society. Why investigate? Join the rest of the world and rejoice.

Libya declared a liberated state Oct. 24
Limited liberation
It jars my sense of reality when I see pictures of "liberated" women clad in their burkas cheering their newfound freedom. Don't these women realize that until they can dress as they please, not as they are forced to do, that they are not free? They live in a cage of fabric.
They remind me of the story of the circus elephant who was chained to a post for so many years that even when the chains were removed, he stayed in the same spot. If it is religious to be so extremely modest, why is it limited only to women and enforced only by men?
Mary Bernard, Oldsmar
Occupy Wall Street
Counting blessings
I'm so sick of the "holier than thou" attitude of the critics of the Occupy Wall Street movement.
I'm 61, have had a pretty good job for the past 36 years, have a great pension and health care for life, and what happens to others probably won't affect me at all.
But I see friends who have been laid off at 50-plus years of age who frankly have little chance of employment in this competitive world, and then hear Herman Cain bluster that if they're unemployed it's their own fault. All I can say is, "There, but for the grace of God, go I."

BigJim this is my first shotgun (a BPS hunter, synthetic stock) and seems to have great ergonomics for me, but there is no question I feel the recoil more with it than I do with others I've borrowed. I just figured that the lack of muzzle rise had to do with the barrel sitting a little higher than other shotguns and that it therefore directed recoil toward my shoulder rather than the others that the barrel rose more but didn't hit so hard. I think the term is it has more drop at the comb than others. It may very well be fitted wrong for me as I have very long arms and a long torso. How would I know? Having recently injured my shoulder this has become a much more important question.

A very bad idea from CheyenneDec 31, 2012 By Randy Tucker
Some education "experts" in the Legislature want to remove elected control of the department of education from the people.
We were in the midst of a mediocre season at Shoshoni. We'd beaten Wind River, Rocky and Greybull, but Dubois was loaded that year, and the Wyoming Indian High School Chiefs were... well, they were the Chiefs. Unsolicited "help" from overzealous fans and a couple of vicarious fathers muddied the waters. The "help" expanded so much that I closed practices for the first time. All the windows to the gym were covered in paper with a sign reading, "Practice closed except for players, managers and coaches." It wasn't a warm, welcoming phrase to the John Wooden and Bobby Knight wannabes, but it was effective.
We hosted the Chiefs one Friday night and as usual, coach Alfred Redman had a terrific team building its way to yet another state title. As the team warmed up I noticed the "help" seated directly behind the bench.
I walked into their section and asked the collective group, "Anyone want to coach the boys tonight?"
Not a whisper came back.
"I didn't think so," I said.
It didn't endear me to the hardwood experts, but it did set the tone that there would be no interfering with the progress of the kids on the floor by partisan outsiders.
It is a uniquely human trait among the meddlers within our ranks to think that their method is always better than the one employed by the people working 24/7 on a problem.
It doesn't have to be something as inconsequential as a high school sport either. It can extend to much more important areas of life.
Consider this column and open letter to the representatives and senators about to embark to Cheyenne to represent Fremont County in the upcoming legislative session.
Over the last two years a handful of "experts" in Cheyenne have systematically declared war on the educational progress of the children in Wyoming.
State Rep. Matt Teeters of the Lingle-Ft. Laramie area in Goshen County and State Sen. Hank Coe of Cody have taken the lead in this onslaught. They have partners at times in Sens. Phil Nicholas of Laramie and Reps. Steve Harshman of Casper, but if it involves only education and not other special interests, the latter two occasionally will refrain from the type of rhetoric flowing form Coe and Teeters.
If only their efforts were spent in a positive manner. They consider themselves experts in education because both attended school in the past. Perhaps they should focus on curing cancer. After all they've both been to a physician in their lives as well.
It is interesting how "expertise" is sometimes assumed in areas where a person falls far short of the standard. It is all too easy to believe the hype when you're separated from an issue and just believe the rhetoric.
There is an agenda here, make no mistake. These legislators don't like State Superintendent Cindy Hill, and that dislike has spread into a ridiculous quest to move the Wyoming Department of Education out of the elected control of the people of Wyoming and into a hand-picked board managed by the governor's office. This idea has some support in certain biased media outlets, but what they always fail to mention is the clear wording in Wyoming's constitution that prevents their little orchestrated tantrums from becoming law.
It's a good thing that Superintendent Hill worked for many years as a middle school principal before being elected in 2010 to the state superintendent position. Handing the constant drama generated by eighth-grade girls was great preparation for dealing with the likes of her opponents in the Legislature.
Prior to Hill's tenure with the WDE, the department regarded itself as a regulatory agency. The WDE under Jim McBride did little for the state's children but did generate mandated reports, spread money to special interests, and garner near-universal disgust from the teachers and administrators across the state. "Bow, yield, kneel" was often sarcastically referred to as the WDE's motto from 2005 to 2010.
Hill faced stiff opposition from many of the "lifers" in the WDE who resented having to leave their offices in Cheyenne to actually work with Wyoming's children and in improving the quality of instruction in Wyoming schools. Hill was heavily criticized initially for changing the department into an agency dedicated to improving children's education instead of simply one that ruled by decree.
It is most revealing to see the "experts" the governor has placed in newly created regulatory positions working with the Wyoming State School Board. Every appointee is either a disgruntled or terminated former WDE employee. You can't hide their tracks, boys, and your intent to harass education rather than help it is clear as well.
The Wyoming State School Board is a rubber stamp agency with little actual power, but Sen. Coe and Rep. Teeters would use it as a venue to complete their hidden agenda. District superintendents have challenge them on the ridiculousness of this idea and Coe's own Park County school district in Cody is one of the leaders against their Machiavellian plan.
Fremont County's legislative delegation is open-minded and child oriented. Hopefully they, along with the people of the state, can close this sideshow and get back to the job of representing the people rather than adding more fuel to this continuing adolescent outburst.

Call it the fish version of instant messaging. When a fish is injured, it secretes a compound that makes other fish dart away (as seen in the latter half of the sped up video above, when the red light flashes). The substance, named Schreckstoff (German for "scary stuff"), protects the entire community of fish, but no one knew how it worked. Now they do, thanks to an analysis of fish mucus reported today in Current Biology. The key ingredient in Schreckstoff is a sugar called chondroitin sulfate, which is found in abundance in fish skin. When the skin is torn, enzymes break the compound down into sugar fragments that activate an unusual class of sensory neurons known as crypt cells in other fish. And the fish take off.

I would love to have gluten free buckwheat pancakes!
I've been buying this buckwheat mix for a few years now and love it- but recently I bought a package and I was disappointed that the flavor was very mild and tasted like a normal pancake mix. Gone was that really strong buckwheat flavor that I remember! I'm not sure if I just got a strange batch or what, but I hope they haven't changed the recipe because I bought this mix specifically for the flav
It would be great to process this in a gluten free facility since you have one. Since buckwheat is naturally gluten free it seems a shame to make it unavailable to the gluten free community.
I love this product. I make up pancakes using the recipe on the package, add some flaxseed, and have a great, healthy pancake that keeps me satisfied through the day.
This is perfect for the French crepes from Brittany, called galettes de blé noir. I make mine on a cast iron griddle, and use a variety of fillings, like mushrooms, eggs, ham, bacon, cheese and even avocado ( I don't think the latter is typicaly French).
Great product! Just wish it was gluten free. It's tough to find organic and gluten free. Please switch it to the gluten free plant.
I love this product and want to buy it in bulk. Is it possible? Please keep it gluten free.
I love your buckwheat flour. It makes fantastic pancakes. Unfortunately I only found it once - cannot find it any any local markets, even though they all carry a large selection of your products. Please advise!
I bought a bag of this about a month ago, and used it up quickly. My seven year old is picky and doesn't even like pancakes - but for some reason she fell in love with buckwheat pancakes made with this flour. She wants them all the time. [...]
I made the most amazing gluten free buckwheat blueberry pancakes with this flour and I've yet to find an equivalent anywhere. It's flavour is unique in that it actually seems to have a character, whereas the same cannot be said of other buckwheat flours, organic or not.
I wish this product was still run on the gluten-free lines. Please consider making this gluten-free again!

If people don't wish to be shot by home owners, people shouldn't break into other people's homes. I don't have drunk neighbors named Charlie who break into houses to pass out on other people's sofas. You are, of course, entitled to have whomever you wish as your friend.

Why do you care what I believe?
I do believe that a person who is lawfully defending himself or herself should NOT be criminally or civilly liable if someone is injured or even killed in the process. If I am the victim (meaning the person being attacked and forced to defend myself)
to be assaulted, so if something happens to a bystander why should
be liable? Why shouldn't the assailant, the person who set the events in motion, be responsible and liable?
And I don't believe that because Florida law says that. I believe that because it's the only way that makes any sense.
