Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the sudden unexplained death of an infant younger than age one. The most recent recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics offer the following guidelines to parents to help prevent SIDS:
You should also never smoke during pregnancy or around your newborn. New parents should share these recommendations with other child-care providers, such as grandparents and babysitters. Talk with your doctor for more information about SIDS.

WORCESTER � Several city councilors say they would welcome having community discussions about possibly changing the city's form of government, but they stopped short Tuesday night of setting up a process to facilitate that.
Instead, the groundwork for public hearings is not expected to be laid until the council's next meeting on Aug. 19 at the earliest.
Some councilors indicated they may file orders for that meeting to have public hearings on the city's form of government this fall, after a new city manager is hired.
"Democracy is at work here; it's refreshing to see a whole host of activists willing to participate in these discussions," said District 2 Councilor Philip P. Palmieri.
Meanwhile, Councilor-at-Large Konstantina B. Lukes decried the latest movement to change the city's council-manager form of government to one in which an elected mayor would serve as chief executive. She questioned the timing of raising the issue while the City Council is looking for a new city manager.
Mrs. Lukes even went so far to say that such talk is "an attempt to sabotage the city manager selection process" because it might give pause to candidates who have applied for the job.
She also argued that discussion about changing the form government was a violation of the Open Meeting Law because there wasn't an agenda item specifically about the issue.
Instead, the discussion was allowed to take place when the council took up an item from Mayor Joseph M. Petty on an update on the city manager search process.
"There is nothing on the agenda talking about charter change," Mrs. Lukes said. "It's quite a jump to go from an update on the city manager search to changing the city's form of government. That is far removed from the selection process and I believe it is a violation (of the Open Meeting Law) to go any further."
But Mr. Petty and several other councilors strongly disagreed. They said the city's form of government goes hand in hand with the city manager search process.
They also argued that there was no violation of the Open Meeting Law because the City Council was not taking any votes related to the form of government; it was only referring to its Municipal Operations Committee the mayor's report on the city manager search.
"She's bastardizing the Open Meeting Law," said Councilor-at-Large Frederick C. Rushton. "Nothing has been put before the council to vote on. I invite (Mrs. Lukes) to file a complaint with the attorney general; it will end up in the wastebasket in five seconds."
Mr. Petty also defended his handling of the matter, saying it is important that the council address the issue. He said if councilors want to set up public hearings on changing the city's form of government, they should file orders that can appear on the next council agenda.
Several councilors also disputed the notion that talk about changing the form of government will hamper the city manager search. They said they have broached that question with the consultant assisting the council in the search and were told it should have no impact.
Meanwhile, Councilor-at-Large Morris A. Bergman said he believes there is nothing wrong with having discussions.

I have a Vivitar series flash that attaches to my Minolta X-700 via hotshoe. Now the question:
Would it be possible to buy a bipost-to-hotshoe from paramountcords, set my Graphex 135mm to "X" sync, and still have the flash synchronize to the shutter?
Flashbulbs are becoming a little bit of a problem for me. They're great, but the price jumped up on ebay about ten dollar. I prefer using edison-base medium screw flashbulbs such as the Press 40.

A Paramount cord with female bipost connector at one and and hot shoe at the other should work fine, if your shutter has working X synchronization. Attaching the hot shoe and flash to the camera may be the more interesting question. I think the Paramount hot shoe tip option has a 1/4x20 threaded socket, which ought to simplify making some sort of bracket for it.

If your hot-shoe Vivitar also has an output socket, like my 2800 does, then you can get Paramount to make you a Vivitar-plug-to-female-bipost cable. I use this set-up with all my Graphex shutters on X-synch and it works great! (Of course, this cable won't work with any other brand of flash, as Vivitar has a proprietary plug/socket design.)

Well okay, mounting:
Do you suggest having the mount installed on the top of the Graphic, to the left slightly or as a power-grip?

No! Don't go drilling any holes in the body...
Just get a 1 1/2 inch pipe (pvc with flat end cap), two Graflex flash clamps, and a 1/4-20 bolt. put the clamps on the pipe, the bolt through the end cap, clamp to factory flash bar, and you have a copy of the Graflex flash adapter that held the electronic flash heads...

RichS's idea is a real good one. Also, you might check around any camera show/sale meets in your area, and you may luck into a bracket-type grip that will fit your 4x5. I picked up such a no-name grip for $5, and it works great with my Century. It screws into the 1/4"-20 socket on the bottom of the case, and has an accessory shoe (though not a hot shoe) on the top of the grip. Very handy!

Well said. Note also that there was a purpose-built plastic tube, sized to fit the Graflex/"Graflite" clamps, with a nice heavy-duty metal accessory shoe assembly on top.
And Graflex made a rubber cap for its 2- and 3-cell flashguns, with a 1/4x20 machine screw in the middle. This was designed for attaching "Stroboflash" heads, but can accommodate anything (within reason) with the appropriate socket.
I'm not sure that mounting a shoe on the body is a terrible idea. However it would be much, much better to have the flash attached in such a way that it's easy to detach and hold up or out or back, as the situation seems to require.
Also, if you mount your hot shoe adapter to the top of a 3-cell flashgun, you can use that gun to trip the solenoid with your right hand, while waving the flashgun around. This commonly was done with flashbulbs, four decades agone...

This is perhaps getting a little far afield from office888's original query, but mention of a body-mounted flash shoe prompts me to share this. When I bought my Century, which otherwise was in near-mint condition, the previous owner had modified it top and bottom on the right side (looking from behind the camera) by drilling four holes in the case (two above, two below). Whatever those holes were intended to accommodate was now missing, except that there was a 1/16"-thick aluminum piece about 1/4" x 1" attached by two screws in those holes on top of the case. (This is on the Kalart side of the camera.) Thinking about a way to mount a flash shoe on this camera, I hit upon a plan, went to the model RR hobby shop, got some brass shapes (flat plate, u-channel, and rod), and soldered up a shoe. Using the tapped holes already in the aforementioned aluminum piece, I fastened the shoe to the piece with two screws from my assorted parts box. This home-made shoe just clears the top of the rangefinder. To finish the appearance I spray painted the shoe flat black. Now I have a couple of options when I want to use flash: the shoe, or the bracket-type grip. What I like about the shoe I fabricated is that it is mounted on the same side of the camera as is standard for the Graflex flash, whereas the grip puts the flash on the left side.

My question is in regards to my code below. Basically, I've come to the point when I am using too many if's and else's and my program gets confused. The point of the first if is to check if the command line arguments anywhere contain just a's just b's or both simultaneiously. Assuming a and b stand for two different books, I want my program to print out whether I am starting one new book or two new books (respectively). I only want to make my first if work, I don't wish to change any other bits of the code unless absolutely nessesary.
public class TwoBookReader { public static void main(String args[]) { PageCounter pca = new PageCounter(); PageCounter pcb = new PageCounter(); boolean changed = true; String book = "a"; PageCounter currentBook = pca; int bookmark=0; for(int i = 0; i < args.length; ++i) { if (args[i].matches("[a]*") && args[i].matches("[b]*")) //CODE I WANT TO CHANGE... { System.out.println("Starting two new books"); } if(args[i].equals("a")) { book = "a"; currentBook = pca; changed = true; } else if(args[i].equals("b")) { book = "b"; currentBook = pcb; changed = true; } else if(args[i].equals("x")) { bookmark=currentBook.whatPageAmIOn(); System.out.println("Bookmarked page " + bookmark + " in " +book); } else if(args[i].equals("r")) { System.out.println("Return to page " + bookmark + " in " +book); } else { if(!changed) { System.out.println("Still reading from "+book); } else { System.out.println("Reading from "+book); } for(int j = 0;j < Integer.parseInt(args[i]);++j) { System.out.println("Read page "+currentBook.whatPageAmIOn()); currentBook.readPage(); } System.out.println("Put "+book+" down"); changed = false; } } } }
This is what the program prints out. I don't know why it completely ignores the first if!

This is how government works
This is how government really works, the nuts and bolts of what governments are supposed to do.
On Monday, Mayor Tom Rist called in key department heads for an 8 a.m. meeting to begin contingency planning for a possible disaster that could occur as early as the end of this week.
Looking ahead to the weather forecast, Rist saw that rain and warming weather were possible. And with more snow piled up all over town than this city has seen in a very long time, Rist wanted to begin planning as early as possible for potential flooding.
The storms the last few weeks have been more like it used to be, a long time ago, around here. But with two 7-year droughts in the previous 15 years, our winters have been fairly dry. The city simply hasn't been able to justify maintaining a large fleet of snow removal equipment. It has only one sander truck for example, whose crews have been working round-the-clock shifts trying to stay ahead of the significant amounts of snow that have fallen in the last three weeks. There's been so much snow that it's pretty much been a losing battle, despite their efforts.
So the snow has piled up. But if it warms up or rains this week, it's going to melt quickly. And with the ground either frozen or saturated, the water is going to just start flowing overland. Every seven inches of snow equals one inch of water, and two inches of water hitting this city in a 24-hour period would constitute the famous FEMA "100-year flood."
So Rist and his people began looking at city maps, identifying areas where flooding has been known to occur, and planning for how to best mitigate the problem.
Storm drains that are frozen over will have to be cleared in the next few days. Snow will have to be removed from gutters so it doesn't dam up the flowing water. Canal water ditches the city maintains will have be cleaned out, the snow removed and hauled off. Drainage ditches to the city's overflow ponds needed to be cleared.
The downtown area was identified as one priority area, as well as the upper reaches of 18th East St. and the area around the golf course, and several other points in town where flooding had been known to occur, or where city crews anticipated it might occur. "I think the people at the (new) jail are going to realize why they're on the FEMA flood plain maps," Rist said.
The mayor took the advice given by his people and authorized the public works department to contract for additional dump trucks to help haul the snow away. Parks and Recreation volunteered equipment and crews to help public works.
They identified locations to haul the snow, eventually deciding that despite the distance it had to be hauled, that dumping it at the old city dump was the best place to avoid creating additional problems "downstream" from other potential dumping sites.
Arrangements were made to try and acquire pallets of sand bags in case they would be needed (requests went out to the base and the county disaster services office).
Within an hour the city had a plan and crews began working to implement it.
That doesn't mean, if Rist's concerns turn out to be justified, that there won't be flooding. But it does mean that the city was already working to deal with it, rather than waiting to act when it actually happened.
That's how government is supposed to work.

I love a mayor with a sense of humor, who can both take a little criticism and come up with a funny payback, as well.
Last week, I took a tiny shot at the city for the snowy conditions of the streets. Later that day (the day the paper came out), I attended a function to welcome the new police chief to town (I think we're going to like this guy a lot). As I arrived at the police station, Mayor Rist was there to greet me.
"Read your editorial," he said with a stern face and a twinkle in his eye, "and I've got something here for you -- a citation for not shoveling the snow off your sidewalk."
I cracked up. I was, of course, guilty as charged (I'd hurried to work that morning), so I couldn't complain. In fact, it was just a warning, and was done completely in jest (I thnk). But it showed that Tom can give as well as he can take.
I loved it. And, of course, as I relayed the story to others, the most common reaction I got was, "Oh, my goodness, you can get a citation for that? I better get home and shovel my walk!" (Actually, I think in practice they only cite annoying editors).
* * *
As I left Monday's meeting to deal with snow removal, I saw Tom get into Stan Frank's truck (he was going to check on some equipment at Parks and Rec). But the truck was stuck on the ice outside city hall and was just spinning its wheels. I stopped to help push, along with a couple other people, and Tom got out to push as well. As we pushed and rocked, I mentioned under my breath (not wanting another citation), "you could use some sand here."
"Shut up," Tom replied.
* * *
With Tom taking over as mayor, there's been a few tiny but interesting changes at city hall.
Tom's previous job meant he had to get up early to go to work. His work habits haven't changed. He's often at city hall by 6:30 a.m. and considers it one of his jobs to make the coffee for everyone else who will be arriving later. It's not unusual for him to be there after 5 p.m., as well. He's willing to put in long hours.
And he's got a computer on his desk. McNeal wouldn't (or couldn't) use one. Tom complained that he's not getting any e-mails. "I guess people aren't used to doing it, yet," he said. He'll rue the day he said that, but it's an example of how he wants to keep lines of communication as open and varied as possible.
Every mayor has a different style, but at first blush it looks like Tom is going to be one of those blue collar roll-up-your-sleeves-and-get-to-work types. I think that's something that will be a benefit to all of us in the long run.

Located in the quiet residential area of Tosuien, Hiroshima, this striking yet minimalist house was designed by Suppose Design Office to house a family of five. The building's metal frame structure and overhanging concrete floor are completely covered in translucent panels, resulting in a lightbox effect, which provides ample of sunlight during.
The buildings stretches over 3 floors. The ground level provides room for the owner's motorcycle collection and as the building is set back about 4 meters from the road, there is enough space for a vehicle in front as well. The second floor features the dining room, living room and the kitchen, located partially in a concrete core that hides all the mechanical and plumbing systems. The fourth floor features the bedrooms. The corrugated plastic panes provide a feeling of transparency without compromising to privacy, as the only real clear image exists within about a meter from the skin and is still a bit distorted.

To gain the competitive advantage of being "media savvy," companies must now deploy or create rich media at every level of the organization and view individual team members as critical links in the communication supply chain. While the relevant tools and apps to support this trend are in place, those resources have also placed a drag on device performance and overall productivity. We'll explore several of the key roadblocks and give you recommendations for dealing with the new world of rich media. As mobile workers rely more than ever on devices for connections to business-critical applications, breakthroughs in solid state technology bridge the gap.
Every company is a media company
Conglomerates like GE and P&G now consider themselves media companies, and have gone as far as to form editorial newsrooms that are larger than traditional newspaper and magazine teams. Journalists are now hired at senior levels and platoons of "content strategists" oversee numerous communications channels.
Every Excel spreadsheet tells a story. Every Twitter feed supports a host of corporate objectives, whether that's branding, tactical acquisitions or testing of new products. This means every employee is now viewed as a critical communicator. While the era of the cubicle has not quite concluded, how we work and how we think about our "computer" and its utility is rapidly evolving, and we're demanding more.
Left to our own devices
The very first hard drive was the size of a refrigerator and weighed more than a ton. We've come a long way, but a laptop hard-drive that spoils a budget planning meeting or a pitch to a prospect might as well be a refrigerator.
The cost of memory is not the issue. PCWorld1 estimates that in the past 30 years, the cost of storing a gigabyte of data has plunged from more than $100,000 to mere pennies and if a sales team or a market researcher cannot readily access any portion of that gig, the new value proposition quickly disappears. A recent Forrester Research report2 states, "gone are the days when employees wielded a simple set of tools to get work done." Today's workers are media savvy and design conscious. They're the internal keynote speakers at budget planning conferences, using high-end graphics to present information in a crisp and compelling manner. They're not only building but also supporting online sales presentations, webinars and live demos — a new form of competitive advantage.
Ultimately, speed of access to applications and information is the issue now. Dashing from their open-design workspaces to formal scrums and informal hallway collaborations, even single-location, office-based workers are essentially mobile in their workflows. Like their road warrior counterparts, they're concerned with rapid access to folders, how quickly applications open and close and how fast their computers boot up and shut down.
The elusive "Everything, Everywhere"
While "greed for speed" and "readily available" command the day, our headlong sprint toward "out-of-the-box" implementations and adoption throughout the organization remains tethered to files inside an office. Gartner goes so far as to suggest that now through 2018, a variety of devices, user contexts and interaction paradigms will make "everything everywhere" strategies unachievable3.
At the same time, this highly-skilled mobile workforce, growing at 20%, experiencing the luxury of BYOD (bring your own device) and comfortable with consumer-designed technology, has no patience with employer- provided equipment. You'll also hear about it from the IT leaders: slow application response times and long boot up cycles; reliance on Microsoft applications and Google drives and the accompanying "feature creep" which inhibits all parts of the stack, including storage, operating systems and productivity suites.
Here are just a few of the elements of the corporate encumbrance, including presentation trends, data size, email behavior and Cloud-app inhibitors:
Proliferation of PowerPoint (PPT)
You can trace the beginning of "producing presentation graphics for overhead projection" to the year 1984. Three years later, the company that developed "Presentation" was sold to Microsoft for $14 million4. Originally designed for management and sales personnel, PPT usage now encompasses just about every function and responsibility level in the organization. On the 25th anniversary of PPT in 2009, Microsoft estimated that there were one-half billion users and 30 million presentations every day5.
By trying to make presentations more convincing and engaging, the natural tendency of any user is to load PPT with rich media. The result? An ever-increasing file size, complexity of the added elements and "deck bloat." Presentation decks are bulging in size with video files, high-res images and other rich media as companies try to position themselves as leaders in their respective spaces. Even presentations viewed internally have contributed to the drag on productivity.
There are numerous reasons why PPT file sizes may get out of hand — it's not just rich media. Culprits from the application itself include: saving as earlier-version PowerPoint files, default settings, embedded objects, raster graphics, fast saves, fonts and even the review features.
Deploying solid state technologies can alleviate these PPT bottlenecks and boost productivity by improving access times to rich media applications and overall operating system functionality. Related benefits include faster file write time and reduced time for re-imaging.
Rich media files
Rich media is frequently created in specialized groups like marketing or outside creative agencies. But what about the recipients and intermediaries of rich media files created in Adobe and Photoshop, who have to integrate them quickly into standard office applications?
What happens when those rich media files are shared within the business across sales teams and branch offices or pushed externally to customers and partners? How many workers resort to firing up a desktop system because of mediocre performance from their laptop when dealing with large numbers of images and video files? Like rich media, 3D modeling is frequently created by the engineering group or in R&D environments as rapid prototyping. But what happens when those prototype files hit the other functions of the business, such as marketing, sales and operations? That could result in a lost sale or backlog in development timelines.
Companies that introduce the significantly faster processing of solid state technologies experience a higher level of agility and productivity across the organization, especially related to working with rich media files.
Email attachment and unnecessary downloading
Routine daily email processing is not a storage-intensive task. But what do users do with omnipresent email attachments? They typically download them to a hard-drive out of habit — spreadsheets, slideshows and images (JPGs, GIFs, PNGs) — so they're instantly accessible (instead of floating in the ether).
Unless they engage in a highly collaborative environment, many users view their email application as a form of transmission and not as a natural form of storage; thus, attachments are downloaded.
And how often do users hit the download button on the Google drive in order to manipulate a spreadsheet or a slideshow as a desktop application? Saving and retrieving emails from a solid state drive rather than a cumbersome and less reliable hard-drive results in higher productivity rate at lower TCO.
Data file size disconnect
Many rich media email attachments now exceed 25MB, but corporate email that receives these files often restricts any attachment over 10MB. Mainly for security and performance reasons, external email server providers limit the maximum file size that an email account can receive. Otherwise, email servers would risk being overwhelmed. Some free email providers also enforce commercial limitations on the email size — free accounts get a low maximum email size limit but can be increased to the maximum limit by upgrading to a paid account. There may not be budget for that.
However, there are workarounds like Outlook optimizer— applications that automatically compress outgoing file attachments. Or, you can upload the files-to-be-attached to cloud storage servers (like Dropbox or Google Drive) and include the download link in an email. In many cases, you're mostly patching a hard drive environment, with all the attendant limitations, onto a cloud-based system to make it usable in the real world.
Workarounds and patches are ultimately not the answer for today's media-fluent workforce accustomed to maneuvering easily across responsive personal devices and consumer apps. Neither does IT desire a flood of complex presentation files with large attachments causing slow response times, lapsed connectivity for users and a strain on data throughput and the data architecture.
Changing just one piece of the puzzle can result in improved device and network performance when it comes to rich media files. While a solid state drive won't compress an oversized presentation, it will re-image faster, write that large, rich media file to the drive faster and it will be presented without delay on the other end. Solid state drive technology delivers a higher productivity benefit accompanied by lower overall costs.
In this era of rich media and the advancing sophistication of regular business applications, the average user matters more than ever. Equipping and enabling staffers who mostly work with standard, but media- and format-rich documents and spreadsheets means a competitive advantage for a company that can leverage its software investment as effectively and efficiently as possible.
The price point and potential benefit of SSD technology applies to all levels of the organization. Mobile workers and staff that participate in multiple meetings and are frequently off their docking station will benefit from greater storage and improved response time. When even the most basic presentation and other image-based applications launch anywhere from 40 to 75 percent faster, rich media lives up to its potential.
Frequent user tasks like downloading files from the Cloud, zipping files for email attachments, and even the copying of files benefit from the speed support of an SSD. Likewise, rich media applications like Adobe Reader® and Photoshop® are enhanced by the communications agility and storage support of an SSD. SSDs are much faster, more durable, cooler and operate silently while also drawing less power.
When every company is a media company, the winners will be those who tightly integrate entrenched applications, emerging cloud storage services and solid state drive technologies into their unique work ecosystems.

BARTONVILLE — Anticipating an onslaught of concealed carry permit applications, village police are adapting their fingerprinting services to expedite background checks for the process.
The Bartonville Police Department procured live-scan fingerprinting technology — an electronic system that captures and transmits fingerprints for comparison to state and national databases — two years ago through a federal grant.
In addition to identifying individuals in criminal cases, police use the equipment for other state-required background checks such as those for some school and health officials. That capability in Bartonville will soon be extended to the public for gun permits.
"It would be convenient to our residents, and we wanted to offset the cost and make some money for the village in the process," police Chief Brian Fengel said. "Applicants will want to get fingerprinted, and they're going to go to someone else if they don't come here."
Applications for a permit to carry a concealed weapon will require a background check when they become available to the public Jan. 5 — and that process is expedited under state law if electronic fingerprints are submitted. Under most circumstances, state police will have 90 days to process applications with electronic fingerprints and 120 days without that data.
Fengel said the department will charge $80 per person for the fingerprinting process and conduct it by appointment only. The system should be set up by the first day concealed carry applications are available.
"We're going to limit it initially to Bartonville residents," Fengel said. "Then, if we can handle it, we're going to start offering opportunities for residents outside the village."
It is not clear how many other locations in the Peoria area offer similar fingerprinting services to the public. A list of licensed vendors available from the Illinois State Police does not name any in the Tri-County Area, although some companies have headquarters elsewhere in the state and satellite locations in the region.

Bartonville plans live-scan fingerprinting for concealed carry applicants

Brownsville, Ore. — A new USDA-inspected processing facility, designed for grass-fed sheep, goats and cattle, has been opened in the heart of Linn County sheep country.
Faced with a decision whether to quit focusing on meat or to build himself a processing plant, Reed Anderson chose to build. The 15,000-square-foot facility can hold 500 lambs or 70 cattle and process up to 300 animals a day.
"To make it in the sheep business, you need to go for quality or volume and we're known the upscale branded product," Anderson said. "The stumbling block for us was processing. Now I control the quality from the point of conception to the finished product."
Anderson, who is the fourth generation in a five-generation sheep operation, met with his family to make the decision to build.
"We looked at grants and co-ops and the like and decided to mortgage the farm," Anderson said.
"I wanted the building itself to look like an agriculture building and not a barn, and depending on which piece of equipment you look at depends on if it was purchased new, bought and shipped from a processing plant that closed in Chicago or was custom made for us," he said.
The pelts are dried in an adjacent building and sent to a pelt plant in Texas.
"I followed the Temple Grandin model in the holding pens — lots of lights, curved passageways, non-slip well-drained surfaces — everything to create humane, stress-free conditions and I have security cameras patrolling the offloading areas," he said. "People with animal experience helped me put it together and we all knew what we didn't want."
Everybody's good ideas went into the job, he said.
Anderson named his plant after the Kalapooia Indians who settled the valley known in the center of what is known as the grass seed capital of the world.
Geoff Latham of Nicky USA and Mike Wooley of Longs Meat Market in Eugene are among the customers that rely heavily on Anderson's fresh lamb, and both men jumped at the first opportunity to tour the new facility.
"A state-of-the-art processing plant right here in the valley is perfect for us," Latham said. "We both look for local ranches that grass feed and this makes us happy."
Anderson, who is looking forward to the building phase being over, said that he has probably wanted his own processing plant all his life.
"Every time I hit a snag I would say to myself that if I had my own plant I could,…" he said. "I remember the days we just raised sheep and after all the work of keeping them away from the coyotes, they were always either too big, too small, too black, too white or it wasn't the right time for the pelts," Anderson said. "Today, I can raise them the way I think they ought to be raised, process them the minute I believe the time is right and get them to my customer when he needs them."

TravelDude needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 699 designs submitted by 154 freelance designers.
I Want That Flight
iwantthatflight.com.au has been around for a few years & the website needs an update - starting with the logo. Please do not base the colours or design of your logo on the current website/logo.
The site compares airfares but please try to have some other image other than a aeroplane in the logo (no paper planes, either). Think travel, comparison, saving money, holidays, excitement.
Anyone who travels and wants to save time and money.
Note: I would preter not to have overtly Australian images in the logo. So no Australian maps, flags, kangaroos etc. That said, if you can think of something subtle and interesting then I would like to see it.
* Include the words "I Want That Flight". Do not include the web address.
* Logo should reflect how it sounds when you say "I Want That Flight!" out loud - a bit funny and a bit "out there". Yet should still be serious enough that people will trust the site with their travel plans.
* Logo should adhere to these design rules:
1. Resizeable (works at very small size and very big size);
2. Recognizable in black and white;
3. Simple (ie - no photos)
* As there is a lot of words in the name of the site it would be good if the final design worked both as a rectangle (for use in the website header, business cards etc) and as a square (for twitter avatar, Facebook avatar etc).

John DiStaso's Granite Status: Former Sen. Bob Smith will not try to return to WashingtonBy John DiStaso, Senior Political Reporter
October 09. 2013 10:07AM
WEDNESDAY, OCT. 9; BROWN HELPING GUINTA. On the day Republican Dan Innis of Portsmouth announced his candidacy for the 1st District U.S. House seat, we've learned that his 2014 GOP primary foe will hold a fundraiser with a familiar figure in Innis' backyard.
Former Massachusetts U.S. Sen. Scott Brown will featured at a fundraiser in Portsmouth on Nov. 14, hosted by Portsmouth attorney John Lyons.
The venue has yet to be announced.
Brown has made seven appearances for Granite State Republicans since the spring, most recently in Hampstead on Sept. 30.
He is scheduled to return to the state on Nov. 2 to campaign for Fred Leonard, who is running for mayor of Rochester, and Matt Spencer, who is running for reelection as mayor of Somersworth, and to appear at a fundraiser for the Strafford County GOP in Dover.
Brown, who has a home in Rye, has not ruled out a U.S. Senate run in New Hampshire.
See our report on Innis' announcement elsewhere on UnionLeader.com.
(An earlier Granite Status report follows.)
WEDNESDAY, OCT. 9: NO POLITICAL COMEBACK FOR BOB. For the past several months, former U.S. Sen. Bob Smith strongly considered running again for U.S. Senate from New Hampshire, but he told the Granite Status today he has decided against it.
"I gave it a lot of thought," the veteran Republican said Wednesday morning. "Normally, I'm very decisive but I had a lot of difficulty making up my mind. I went into all aspects of it and right up until yesterday, I was on the fence. That's when I decided that I wasn't going to do it."
Smith, 72, said there was "no stark or dramatic reason" for deciding against trying to take on Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen. "I just weighed all the options and decided I did not want to pursue it."
Smith said it's doubtful he will run again for public office.
"I feel good. I'm in good health," he said. "But when you get to be my age – my family was supportive but deep down they were concerned whether this was best for me and them. When you serve in public office, there are pluses but sacrifices are made by the family."
Smith has homes in both Florida and Tuftonboro. He and his wife, MaryJo, have three children and three grandchildren.
Smith said he felt he had a "good chance" to win the GOP nomination and the Senate seat itself, and made it clear, "I deeply appreciate the wonderful comments and emails from people all over this state and country who were very kind and encouraging."
Smith said he is writing a book, "and a good portion of it will be about New Hampshire politics."
He said he will also be willing to help other candidates for the Senate and other seats.
Smith's decision leaves former state Sen. Jim Rubens as the only announced Republican candidate for the seat. Former U.S. Rep. Charlie Bass continues to mull a candidacy, while former Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown, who has a home in New Hampshire, has not ruled out a run.
Conservative activist Karen Testerman is still exploring a candidacy, while state Senate Majority Leader Jeb Bradley has taken himself out of consideration.
Smith, known for his staunch conservatism and straightforward style, represented the state's 1st Congressional District from 1984 to 1990. He won the U.S. Senate seat in 1990 and again in 1996, but lost to John E. Sununu in the 2002 GOP primary.

WAYNE, N.J. – William Paterson (2-4, 0-3 NJAC) ended its three-game home stand with a 55-34 loss to Brockport (2-3, 1-1) Oct. 12.
The Golden Eagles received the opening kickoff and Dan Andrews found the end zone on the second snap, receiving the toss on the sweep and sprinting down the left sideline for a 63-yard touchdown and handing Brockport a 7-0 lead less than one minute into the game. With 4:52 left in the first quarter, Wayne Bonsell again handed the ball off to Andrews, who ran off right tackle and cut inside for a 13-yard touchdown that made it a 14-0 score.
A 31-yard field goal by junior Robert Sinegra (Wharton, N.J./Morris Knolls) inside by left upright put the Pioneers on the board with 2:30 remaining in the first quarter and cut the lead to 14-3.
Bonsell completed an eight-yard touchdown pass to Andrews with 12:13 showing on the clock in the second quarter. The extra point attempt was wide left, but the Golden Eagles had forged a 20-3 lead.
After forcing a Pioneer three-and-out, the Brockport offense came back on the field and Bonsell quickly completed a 57-yard pass to Darryl Tompson to set up the Golden Eagles at the WP-20. After two more quick gains, Bonsell handed the ball to Andrews, who leaped over the pile for his fourth touchdown of the game (27-3, 9:22).
The Pioneers returned the ensuing kickoff to their own 10, and on third-and-10, senior quarterback Ryan Gresik (Newton, N.J./Newton) completed a pass to sophomore running back Matt Deiana (Somers, N.Y./Somers) for 14 yards. Gresik then found senior Mike Vannucci (Bethpage, N.Y./Plainedge) for a 25-yard completion, and ran the ball himself for 15 yards to set up the Pioneers on the Brockport 40-yard line. A Gresik-to-Rich Vivian (West Long Branch, N.J./Shore Regional) 15-yard gain and a three-yard pass to Darius Kersey (Dover, N.J./Dover) put the ball at the Brockport-21 and set up a 38-yard field goal from Sinegra to make it a 27-6 contest with 4:16 remaining in the half.
Highlighted by a 23-yard completion on fourth-and-one, Brockport set up an eight-yard touchdown run for Shireem Cobb 1:12 remaining before halftime (34-6).
After getting three quick first downs to start the second half, Gresik completed a pass to Vivian, who broke two tackles and was finally brought down at the Brockport one-yard line for a gain of 24. Kersey covered the final yard on the ground for the touchdown (34-13, 11:49).
After trading three-and-outs, Levi Clarke fumbled senior Julian Frazier's (Plainfield, N.J./North Plainfield) punt, and the ball was recovered by freshman defensive back Pat Manna (Somerville, N.J./Somerville) at the Brockport-44. However, Ross Ragonesi intercepted a Gresik pass in the end zone for a touchback, thwarting the Pioneers' chance to capitalize on the turnover.
Starting at their own 20, the Golden Eagles engineered an 80-yard drive that culminated in a 15-yard touchdown run for Bonsell (41-13, 4:18).
Less than four minutes into the fourth quarter, Jamar Bussey (Paulsboro, N.J./Paulsboro) and Tyree Ellis (Paulsboro, N.J./Paulsboro) brought down the Brockport punter on the Golden Eagles' 39 after a bad snap. Gresik was quick to take advantage of the field position, turning back-to-back broken plays into positive gains with his feet, including a 15-yard touchdown (41-20, 12:53)
Brockport answered on its next drive when Andrews found pay dirt for the fifth time with a carry off left tackle (48-20, 9:19).
Junior linebacker Jedd Blackowski (West Milford, N.J./West Milford) forced quarterback Jason Howard to fumble a bobbled snap that was recovered by senior linebacker Bobby Moriggia (Eldred, N.Y./Eldred Central), who returned it 47 yards for the defensive touchdown and a 48-27 score with 5:33 to play.
The Pioneer offense got the ball right back when Ellis recovered Sinegra's on-side kick at the WP 45. After Gresik completed passes to Kersey (20 yards) and Vivian (12 yards), two Pioneers penalties set up a first-and-25 for the Pioneers on the Brockport-38. Vannucci caught two passes for three and 20 yards to bring up third-and-two. The Pioneers converted the third down as Kersey bounced off the defender and crossed the goal line from 15 yards out (48-34, 3:13).
During their next possession, the Golden Eagles decided to go for it on fourth-and-one and Cobb broke up the right sideline for a 66-yard touchdown to finish the scoring at 55-34 lead with 2:40 remaining in the game.
Kersey rushed for 34 yards and two touchdowns on five attempts, and Deiana ran seven times for 42 yards. Vivian caught six passes for 94 yards, and Vannucci hauled in four for 55 yards. Gresik finished 18-for-34 for 257 yards, and rushed eight times for 55 yards and a touchdown.
Junior defensive lineman Pat Thomas (Lodi, N.J./Lodi) and senior linebacker David Zurla (Rutherford, N.J./Rutherford) each finished with a game-best 11 tackles. Junior defensive back Elijah DeGuzman (Pennsauken, N.J./Pennsauken) and sophomore safety Dan Eremita (Cortlandt Manor, N.Y. Lakeland) recorded 10 tackles apiece.
Frazier averaged 38.4 yards on seven punts, and Deiana returned four kickoffs for 69 yards.
Bonsell was 16-for-27 for 217 yards and one touchdown under center, and gained 44 yards on the ground while scoring once. Andrews rushed for 282 yards and four touchdowns and caught two passes for 21 yards and a score.
Jake Brickler led the Brockport defense with eight tackles (four solo). Ragonesi and Anthony Bianchi each recorded an interception.

It is often said that there's nothing like a mother's love. But when it comes to raising happy, healthy and faithful children, there really is nothing quite like a father's love, either.
While mothers undoubtedly play a critical role in the lives of their children, research has continually shown that there is no substitute for having two actively engaged parents in a child's life. In a wide range of areas, from academic success to social behavior to practicing the Faith, children who are raised with loving, committed fathers in their lives clearly benefit from having a close relationship with their dads.
"Moms and dads are both very important," said Dr. Gregory Popcak, a marriage and family counselor and executive director of the Pastoral Solutions Institute. "Yet they both bring very different gifts to the parenting table."
For Catholic families, Popcak told Our Sunday Visitor, one of the greatest benefits of having a father who is committed to his faith is that it often makes a significant difference in how his children will come to view the Church.
"It is really the father's role in his children's faith formation that tends to determine whether the kids are going to grow up to be faithful Christians or not," he said. "When the fathers take the lead in the Faith and character formation of their children, the children are more likely to grow up to continue their parents' faith than if only the mother takes the lead."
This important role was addressed by Blessed John Paul II in Familiaris Consortio, his 1981 apostolic exhortation on the role of the family in the modern world. "In revealing and in reliving on earth the very fatherhood of God, a man is called upon to ensure the harmonious and united development of all the members of the family," Pope John Paul wrote. One of the ways for a father to do this, he said, is "by means of the witness he gives of an adult Christian life which effectively introduces the children into the living experience of Christ and the Church" (No. 25).
Popcak agrees that fathers often become a manifestation of God within their family. Though it is of course important for both parents to remain active in their faith life, as either parent not doing so could send the message to kids that faith is optional or unimportant, children tend to look to their father as a model of Christ in the home.
"A lot of our images of God are fatherly or paternal, and that turns our children's hearts toward their father to see what does dad make of this or what does he do about that," Popcak said. "So when dads are able to be those strong spiritual leaders in their household, it helps add more of a personal, emotional dimension to that idea of a God who is loving and caring and present."
The benefits of a committed father are not just confined to his own family. Research has shown that the involvement of engaged fathers can have lasting effects that benefit children into adulthood and influence the way they interact with the world.
A 2008 study by Swedish researchers using data from 24 papers published between 1987 and 2007 found myriad benefits for children whose fathers are actively involved in their lives, including enhanced cognitive skills and fewer behavioral issues. Studies also have linked better academic performance, improved social skills and psychological health with the presence of an engaged father.
During his years as a youth minister, Steve Wood, founder and director of Family Life Center International, saw firsthand the differences between children who have involved fathers and those who do not. "That's where I saw in a very obvious sense how disturbing it was for kids who, for one reason or another, had a father who was absent," he told OSV. "It was so hard to bring an equilibrium to that child's life."
Wood continued to study the importance of fatherhood and learned that numerous societal issues — violent crime, high incarceration rates and out-of-wedlock births, to name a few — could all be tied to the lack of an involved father. That led Wood to begin St. Joseph's Covenant Keepers, a network of Christian men devoted to strengthening fatherhood and promoting healthy family life.
"A mother and child are very closely bonded together, but a father is the first other person in a child's life," Wood said. "So we take a lot of cues from dads, and they are looked at as kind of a bridge to the outside world. And if that is lacking, there will be all kinds of compensation that a child, and later an adult, will be trying to make."
But being a good influence doesn't mean being perfect or even being an expert on parenting. Dads can have a profound positive impact on their children just by spending time with them, Wood said. And rather than being authoritative in telling kids what to do and what not to do, a father can make a big difference just by setting the right example for his kids — something Wood learned from his own experience as a parent.
"One of the things my own kids told me is that they learned the importance of doing certain things through imitating their father," he said. "I tried to be a winsome and fun dad along with that, and it sets a positive way for kids to follow."
Some fathers, however, may still doubt their ability to steer their kids down the right path, especially when children are exposed to so many other cultural and societal voices. Chris Stefanick, a veteran youth minister and noted chastity speaker, told OSV that it is common for fathers to underestimate just how influential they can be in a child's life.
"Dads have to know their power," said Stefanick, himself a father of six children ages 1 to 14. "Our voice feels small and quiet next to the culture at large, but a shallow stream is very loud and the Mississippi is very quiet. I think the voice of a dad in the life of a child is like the Mississippi — it has a very powerful pull, even if it is quiet."
Stefanick, who travels the country speaking to 50,000 teens each year about chastity, said that studies have found it is the presence of an active father that is most likely to prevent teens, especially girls, from having premarital sex.
And despite his expertise, Stefanick admits to struggling when it comes to talking to his own kids about sex.
"It is awkward; you blush and you stutter," he said. "But even though it is awkward I know that I have to do it. Even if it doesn't come out right, what I say has more power over their hearts and minds than what anybody else could say."
Stefanick also knows that the messages he gives to youth in his talks can never be as impactful as what those teens hear from their own dads. Though fathers may struggle to put the words together or doubt that they are capable, he added, it is essential for them to lend their voice and guidance to their children.
"A family when a dad is not being a spiritual leader is like a church without a bishop or a parish without a priest," said Stefanick. "Yes, it can still go on somehow, but it is not as strong as it could be."

Premier Assistive Technology announces the world?s most accessible CD/DVD creation software
Steve Timmer, Chairman highlights ?While Premier CD/DVD creator appears to be like many other CD burning software, if you use screen reading software, you will be able to really HEAR the difference immediately!!. This is the first CD/DVD burning software that is designed to work with a screen reader and is now the most Section 508-compliant CD burning software in the market.?
Ken Grisham, President, further explains ?For many visually impaired users, while individual ?screens? may be accessible, once you select a button or other function, the user often loses track of the progress or status of a task because the screen reader cannot tell them what is happening. Premier CD Creator takes care of all of that. With the new Premier Assistive CD/DVD burning software, you always know what it is doing as it is doing it. No more guess work. The best part is there is nothing special you need to do to get it to work with your screen reader! If you have a screen reader running, the Premier CD/DVD software will automatically detect it, and send information through your screen reader.?
Mr. Timmer further explains that ?The Premier CD/DVD Creator software package contains four unique tools. It comes with an Audio Ripper, Audio CD Burner, Data CD creator and Data DVD Burner. Each one of these products is independent of the version of screen reader being used. They do not require any Script files or Set Files. You never have to worry about what version of the screen reader you have. Just install it and use it. This is a must for visually impaired computer users.?

The Facility matures in 18 months with the availability of one six-month extension (subject to the payment by Nuinsco of a specified fee), bears an interest rate of 11.5% per annum and is secured by all the shares of CBay Minerals Inc. owned by Nuinsco.

Skin Care and Diseases
Good Face Cleansers for Blackheads?
What type of facial cleaners or masks do you recommend for a 59 year old, black-skinned female? I`m looking for a mask and/or materials to use that targets blackheads (tiny, dark pores).
Open comedones ("blackheads") are dead skin and sebum that has collected in your pores. So, facial cleaners are important in that you want to get your skin clean but should avoid overdrying or irritation. Selecting a cleanser is a personal preference and doesn't have to be expensive. If your face is excessively oily, you can use an oil free cleanser (i.e. 2% salicylic acid) or astringent. If you have dry skin or are prone to irritation, try a mild cleanser for "sensitive skin." Many women think that the more expensive products sold in department stores are better. However, there are many commercial products available at your local drug store. If you use any cleanser or mask that causes itching, redness or irritation, you should discontinue the product and consult a dermatology specialist.

Joined-up Conservation!
International agreement links flywaysA new resolution has been agreed which recognises the importance of promoting international cooperation for the conservation of migratory waterbirds and their habitats. The resolution was passed today (3 November 2008) in South Korea at the 10th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands.
"Waterbird populations around the world are continuing to decline as a result of the loss and degradation of wetland habitats and their unsustainable exploitation", said BirdLife's Head of Conservation, Richard Grimmett. "This resolution recognises the crucial fact that conserving the world's waterbirds is an international challenge. Only by working together along flyways can we effectively conserve our precious migratory birds".
The theme of the International conference is 'Healthy Wetlands, Healthy People', reflects the importance of wetland habitats to people. During the last eight days, around 2,000 representatives from 165 countries, international bodies and non-governmental organisations have gathered to advance wetland conservation.Besides shorebirds, many waterbirds in other global flyways are also at great risk including Crowned Cormorant Phalacrocorax coronatus, Vulnerable Slaty Egret Egretta vinaceigula, Damara Tern Sterna balaenarum and Endangered Red-breasted Goose Branta ruficollis in the African Eurasian Flyways and Ruddy-headed Goose Chloephaga rubidiceps and Vulerable Andean Flamingo Phoenicoparrus andinus in the American flyways.
"The Ramsar Resolution on Flyways is really significant. No country can act alone to protect migratory waterbirds. If we don't collaborate internationally we will push more and more migratory waterbirds to the brink of extinction. We must protect their habitats, especially tidal flats, otherwise species like Critically Endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper Eurynorhynchus pygmeus and Great Knot Calidris tenuirostris are doomed in the East Asian - Australasian Flyway.'' said Alison Russell-French, President of Birds Australia (BirdLife in Australia).
"The Ramsar Resolution reaffirms that flyway approaches are a vital international cooperation mechanism to achieve conservation for migratory waterbirds and their inland and coastal habitats through local, national and international action", said Wetlands International's Flyway Programme Manager, Taej Mundkur."The Resolution calls for more reporting on the state of the world's waterbirds to all biodiversity Conventions. Furthermore, it recognises the value of the International Waterbird Census which is the largest global volunteer-based annual waterbird monitoring programme in flyway conservation work", said Wetlands International's Biodiversity Programme Manager, Ward Hagemeijer.
The Ramsar Convention is an intergovernmental treaty which provides the framework for national action and international cooperation for the conservation and wise-use of wetlands and their resources. It has become one of the most important global mechanisms for BirdLife Partners in their national work to conserve wetland for birds, biodiversity and people.
Representatives at the conference used the agreement to encourage Contracting Parties to support and participate in international initiatives, plans and programmes for the conservation of migratory waterbirds and their habitats, and urge them to identify and designate important wetlands on migratory flyways as Ramsar sites and improve their management.One particular project that was celebrated by the resolution is the Wings Over Wetlands project, which is fostering international collaboration along the African-Eurasian flyways, improving availability of waterbird information, building capacity and demonstrating best practice in the conservation and wise-use of wetlands. Wings Over Wetlands is a joint effort between Wetlands International, BirdLife International, the Global Environment Facility through the United Nations Environment Programme, the Secretariat of the AEWA, the Ramsar Convention Secretariat, the United Nations Office for Project Services and a range of donors and local partners along the African-Eurasian Flyways.
"It's fantastic that the new Ramsar resolution recognises the innovative approach of the Wings Over Wetlands project in joining-up efforts to conserve migratory waterbirds across Africa and Eurasia", said Dr Vicky Jones (BirdLife's Global Flyways Officer).

LONDON, June 14 (UPI) -- Tony Blair's representative has denied the former British prime minister was romantically involved with News Corp. mogul Rupert Murdoch's wife Wendi.
"If you are asking if they are having an affair, the answer is no," the spokesman told The Hollywood Reporter, adding Blair would not publicly comment further on the Murdochs' divorce proceedings, which began in New York Thursday.
Media speculation about the cause of the split has focused on Wendi Murdoch's relationship with powerful men, including Blair, 60, who is married.
Wendi Deng Murdoch, 44, was born in China and attended college in the United States. She met Rupert Murdoch, now 82, while she was working for his Star TV operation in Hong Kong and married him on a yacht in New York Harbor in 1999. They have two daughters -- Grace, 11, and Chloe, 9.
Rupert Murdoch's representative said he filed for divorce from his third wife because the "relationship between husband and wife has broken down irretrievably."

Hello Guys,
Software is awesome- on the verge of purchasing. I have to ask, though, why no "X" on the find bar? I tried using the hotkey twice to close it, but that doesnt work either. I occasionally press ctrl+f on accident, as I have another hotkey that is very similar. In order to close the find bar that comes up, I have to click on one of the find buttons- there is no x, and ctrl+f a second time doesnt close this bar?
Ideally, ctrl+f would toggle the find bar for me, instead of just opening it.
Let me know.
Thank you,Mikel Bitson
Hitting the "escape" key will close the find bar or any open output consoles.
And this is where I feel like an idiot.
Thank you sir.
Still think hotkeys should toggle- but this works for me.
You'll get used to hitting escape all the time. Escape is also used to cancel out of multi-select (reduce multiple selections down to one selection).
There should still be a close button.
I am not sure if a close button should be added. But besided the escape key, it seems logical to me to toggle the find bar by pressing Ctrl+F again.
I like the escape button, but I usually navigate with whatever is closer (mouse or keyboard). If I'm holding the mouse, I look for an 'X' button. If I'm typing on the keyboard I look for 'ESC' or 'CTRL + F' or whatever. The 'X' would be nice. This is the only minor complaint I've had, it's not a 'deal breaker'. I really love everything about sublime text. It's fast, except for when a plugin is acting up, but the plugins are awesome (python & go, and anything else you could dream of). I only wish I didn't have to switch control over to the mouse/keyboard for this one Find/Replace bar. Would it be all that bad to squeeze a little 'x' into one of the corners (preferably the right-upper, since that is where the main action buttons are)?
Sublime Text 3 has an 'X' on the find panel, FWIW
If you guys want to activate the Toggle for the Search Bar
Just go to :
Preferences > Key Binding - Default
It will open a new tab where you can edit the default key binding settings.Now search for "ctrl+f" in the file to find the search bar shortcut line.
Want you have to do now is juste adding "toggle": true at then and of the line in the last bracket : { "keys".............. "args": {"panel": "find", "toggle":true} }Dont remember to place a coma (",") between the arguments.
if you you want to be sure not to do any mistake here's the full line: (line 215)
[code]{ "keys": "ctrl+f"], "command": "show_panel", "args": {"panel": "find", "toggle": true} },[/code]
Dont forget to save the file and that's it you can close it and enjoy toggling your Search Bar ^^
(I assume you can do that for any bar that shows up at the bottom.)

BC-FBC—Louisiana Tech,652
Turnovers trip La. Tech in 40-14 loss at NC State
AP Photo NCGB102, NCGB110, NCGB109, NCGB104, NCGB103
Eds: N.C. State 40, Louisiana Tech 14.
By AARON BEARD
AP Sports Writer
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Louisiana Tech avoided turnovers all last season even while running their offense at a dizzyingly fast pace. The Bulldogs got a reminder Saturday of what can happen when they don't protect the football.
Louisiana Tech lost four fumbles — half as many as it lost all of last season — in the season-opening 40-14 loss at North Carolina State. The first came at the goal line as the Bulldogs had put together their first good drive of the game, while another set up a touchdown for the Wolfpack that helped keep N.C. State in firm control all day.
"I felt like we were talented enough to compete in this game," first-year coach Skip Holtz said. "But we made way too many mistakes."
Louisiana Tech averaged more than 51 points and 578 yards last year under Sonny Dykes, now at California. And while running an average of nearly 88 plays per game, the Bulldogs committed just 13 turnovers — eight fumbles, five interceptions — in 13 games.
By comparison, Saturday's four lost fumbles came on just 60 plays. Top rusher Kenneth Dixon lost two, including the one at the goal line, while backup Tevin King lost one.
"We take total ownership of that," Dixon said. "We weren't coached to hold the ball like that."
For N.C. State, freshman Matt Dayes ran for 84 yards and three touchdowns in the Wolfpack's first game under coach Dave Doeren.
Still, an early left foot injury to starting quarterback Brandon Mitchell put a damper on the afternoon. Mitchell, who beat out Pete Thomas for the job during training camp, broke a bone in his foot after directing N.C. State (1-0) to touchdowns on its first two possessions.
Mitchell left midway through the opening quarter, then returned to the sideline late in the half on crutches and wearing a protective boot. Doeren said Mitchell could miss 4-6 weeks and will have surgery Sunday.
Dixon ran for 118 yards and a touchdown for the Bulldogs (0-1).
Thomas threw for 212 yards on 15-for-27 passing after Mitchell's injury, while Dayes turned in a performance that showed why Doeren has been high on the rookie from Weston, Fla., during the preseason. Dayes — seeing a bigger role with the one-game suspension to leading rusher Shadrach Thornton — capped his day with an 18-yard TD run midway through the fourth quarter that made it 37-14.
Doeren, who spent two seasons at Northern Illinois before replacing fired coach Tom O'Brien, has pushed his team to do everything at a faster tempo, with the no-huddle offense stirring the most fan excitement. That buzz grew with the fast start under Mitchell, an Arkansas graduate transfer revealed as the starter shortly before kickoff.
The Wolfpack marched 65 yards on the opening drive, ending with Creecy bulling his way through Xavier Woods for a 3-yard TD run. On the next drive, Mitchell found Rashard Smith for a 56-yard catch-and-run that set up Dayes' 2-yard score that made it 14-0 less than 6 minutes in.
But Mitchell was stopped on a third-and-1 keeper to end the third series in his final play. He completed all three of his passes for 93 yards and ran five times for 19 yards.
Holtz's Bulldogs moved the football with plenty of no-huddle looks, but they committed those momentum-crushing mistakes, too.
The biggest came when Dixon — who ran for 1,194 yards and an NCAA-freshman record 27 touchdowns last year — fumbled as he tried to cross the goal line late in the first with the Wolfpack already up two scores.
Two possessions later, King lost his fumble as the Bulldogs pushed into the red zone, while defensive end IK Enemkpali fumbled away an interception near the goal line to set up Dayes' second score.
First-time starting quarterback Scotty Young, a transfer from Texas Tech, threw for 178 yards on 15-for-27 passing for the Bulldogs.

UK police arrest brother in Alps killing
LONDON (AP) — The brother of a British-Iraqi man shot to death with three other people last year in a remote area of the French Alps was arrested Monday after investigators gathered evidence that the siblings were fighting over their father's inheritance.
Eric Maillaud, the prosecutor in the town of Annecy, identified the man arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder as Zaid al-Hilli. He said Monday's arrest, which British police confirmed took place in Chessington on the outskirts of London, did not necessarily mean the killer was in custody.
However, Maillaud said there was strong evidence that a dispute over the father's inheritance had boiled over and noted that Saad al-Hilli had multiple copies of two versions of the will: one that split the inheritance between the two brothers and one that left everything to Zaid. Maillaud said one of the copies was found in the camper in France.
"We've known for a long time that there was a conflict between the brothers," he said.
Saad al-Hilli, his wife, an elderly relative and a cyclist were killed in the attack near Annecy last September but the couple's two young daughters survived, including one who spent about eight hours huddled beneath her mother's lifeless body before help arrived. Her older sister, then 7 years old, was shot in the shoulder and severely beaten.
All four people killed suffered two bullets to the head among other wounds. The bodies were discovered by a British cyclist passing by who alerted police. The young British sisters are the only known witnesses to the crime.
Police in Britain would not mention al-Hilli by name but did confirm that a 54-year-old man had been arrested. Authorities in Britain rarely identify suspects who haven't been charged.
Maillaud said the two young witnesses had been questioned as recently as last week but had little to offer the investigation. He said Zaid al-Hilli was called in for questioning June 21 in France, but failed to show up.
Hinnant contributed from Paris.

Motorist OK after driving into Mont Vernon post pffice
By KIMBERLY HOUGHTON
Union Leader Correspondent
MONT VERNON - A woman accidentally drove her vehicle into the front entrance of the Mont Vernon Post Office on Friday, causing significant damage to the building and her car.
Police said there were people inside of the post office at 4 Grand Hill Road at the time of the accident, but no one was injured when Linda Koch smashed her 2011 Subaru Forester into the building's glass doors shortly before 10 a.m.
Koch, 69, of Mont Vernon, had parked her vehicle in a handicapped space in front of the building when she accidentally accelerated the gas instead of applying the brakes, according to Chief Kyle Aspinwall.
"The car went into the building a couple of feet," said Aspinwall, adding it had to be towed from the scene.
He does not anticipate any charges to be filed against the driver.
"This was an accident. There was nothing really criminal about it," said the chief.
However, Aspinwall said the state Division of Motor Vehicles may review her license status following Friday's accident.
It was unknown whether the post office closed on Friday, but Aspinwall assumed that because of the extensive damage to the front entrance, that daily operations were likely brought to a halt.
A call to the post office went unanswered Friday night.
About a year ago, a similar accident occurred at the same post office when an unidentified driver crashed their vehicle into the outside wall of the building just next to the front entrance.
"That was a hit and run. We never did find the person responsible," Aspinwall said on Friday, noting that accident occurred on March 28, 2012.
