EUREKA, Calif. (AP) — A Humboldt County judge has ordered a woman to stand trial in the death of her newborn son after he drank her methamphetamine-laced breast milk.
Maggie Jean Wortman is charged with involuntary manslaughter and child endangerment.
Deputy District Attorney Ben McLaughlin told the Times-Standard of Eureka that his office is considering whether to upgrade the charge. He says prosecutors may pursue voluntary manslaughter or second-degree murder based on evidence presented during Wednesday's preliminary hearing.
Authorities say Wortman used meth during her pregnancy and after her children were born and passed on the drug through her breast milk.
Toxicology reports on the body of 6-week-old Michael Acosta III came back positive for meth, and her 19-month-old daughter also tested positive for it.
Wortman's attorney, M.C. Bruce, did not immediately return a call for comment Thursday.

The Boulder County Coroner's Office has identified the motorcyclist killed in an accident Monday in Louisville as Chad Blodget, 36, of Boulder.
Blodget died at Exempla Good Samaritan Medical Center in Lafayette after he was involved in a collision with an SUV on South Boulder Road at 7:40 a.m. Monday.
The Colorado State Patrol said Blodget was on a 2009 Suzuki motorcycle headed east on South Boulder Road when a 2004 Toyota Highlander headed west on South Boulder Road made a left onto McCaslin Boulevard in front of him.
Blodget tried to avoid the car, but hit the front-right side of the SUV, officials said.
The Boulder County Coroner's Office will conduct an investigation to determine the official cause and manner of death.
The driver of the SUV, Robert Whelton, 45, was not injured. No citations have been issued pending an investigation.

L.A.-based designer John Eshaya is in a rockin' mood. The former vice president of women's wear for Ron Herman launched his swanky-jeans-and-tees collection, Jet by John Eshaya, in 2008 and has added leather and glazed denim (which resembles leather) to his stable of slim-cut jeans for fall.
Popular among trend-loving celebs including Nicole Richie, Heidi Klum and Kim Kardashian, the collection is already one of the sexiest denim lines in the stratosphere, specializing in skinny looks with just the right amount of rips, tears and vintage-inspired distressing.
The new rocker-inspired offerings — black flat latex-coated stretch skinnies and faded-and-ripped black skinnies patched with random-looking black leather squares — were inspired by the edgy T-shirts and knits Eshaya designed for fall. "I needed something cool and chic to work back to," he noted.
The designer conceptualized the Faded Leather Patch jeans while doing patchwork and repairs on classic blue denim. "I thought, why not add a new twist to the faded black jean, with leather patchwork?" He envisions the curvy denim being worn by "someone with chic style, like a Rihanna."
The glazed black denim, Eshaya said, "is for a girl who would pair it with a loose T-shirt and ankle boots, like a Rosie Huntington-Whiteley."
But you don't have to be a drop-dead gorgeous celebrity to benefit from the new styles' cool-kid cuts and treatments. The jeans are $194 at johneshaya.com.

The lights are on
The World's Greatest Detective finally has one of the world's greatest games to call his own. Looking for tips on how to rack up 40-move combos? Need help finding all the Riddler trophies? Just want to complain about how stupid Bane looks? This is the plac
So after completing: the game, game plus, finding all the Riddler trophies, confronting Bane, Hush, and Deadshot, finding Fries' wife etc. I only have the random acts of violence left to do. The problem? They aren't occuring anymore? Does anyone have any tips, or has anyone else experienced this? Do you have to complete this side mission before confronting Joker at the theater?
I also used the easy way in changing the date on my system, to get the Calander Man achievment. Not sure if that had anything to do with it. I've literally spent hours patroling Arkham City with all other side missions completed, and no new random acts of violence occur.
It would really suck to have to restart the game, beat it and all side missions, beat game plus, and all the side missions and riddler trophies again. Although it would be an excuse to replay AC a 3rd and 4th time...
I'm going to guess the thugs of Arkham City aren't beating up political prisoners so much after Protocol 10. Many spots where they might have occurred are rubble afterwards. You might be out of luck. I haven't seen any since beating the main story either.
Double-posting to say I was wrong. While playing on Thanksgiving I stopped at least 2 acts of violence. It seems as if some of them don't even show up until after Protocol 10, so keep an eye out.
Thanks for the info. I'm guessing I messed up by doing the Calander Man Achievement and blasting forward month to month changing my xbox's date. Maybe the random acts of violence only happen for a year lol. Maybe if I get on xboxlive it'll download an update that will fix it. If not it's fine. Due to Arkham City I'm very into Batman again. Re-read old comics, bought new ones. Eventually I'm going to replay Asylum, and then after that maybe City a 3rd and 4th time. Those 3rd and 4th times I'll be sure to focus on the Random Acts of violence for sure.

THE Australian sharemarket closed higher to end a three-day run of losses and defy falls in the US and Europe overnight on Tuesday.
At the close on Wednesday, the benchmark S&P/ASX 200 Index was up 17.9 points, or 0.38 per cent, at 4708.1, while the broader All Ordinaries rose 17.8 points, or 0.38 per cent, to 4730.1.
Most sectors finished higher, with financial and industrial-sector stocks the better performers.
The four big banks closed mixed. National Australia Bank jumped 26¢ to $25.35 and Westpac gained 23¢ to $26.51, while ANZ fell 15¢ to $25.02 and Commonwealth Bank had a relatively flat day, gaining 3¢ to $61.40.
CommSec analyst Steve Daghlian said it was a solid session considering negative sentiment surrounding the release of figures showing Australian retail spending had slumped 0.1 per cent in November.
"Most of the market had been expecting an at least modest improvement in spending," he said. "It wasn't to be and was a bit of a disappointment."
Shares in the big retail chains were hit, with Myer down 6¢, or 2.7 per cent, to $2.16, Harvey Norman off 4.5¢, or 2.3 per cent, to $1.905, and David Jones slipping 1¢ to $2.39.
JB Hi-Fi bucked the trend, rising 9¢ to $10.63.
Mr Daghlian pointed out that market sentiment would have been boosted by a second consecutive monthly rise in new home sales, with the release of Housing Industry Association figures showing a 4.7 per cent rise in November.
Alcoa kicked off the US earnings season, posting net income of $US242 million for the fourth quarter, compared with a $US193 million net loss from the same period a year ago. Excluding one-off gains, the amount was only $US64 million. The result was in line with expectations and Alcoa forecast slightly higher demand in 2013.
Locally listed shares in Alumina, a joint venture partner with Alcoa, were up 4.5¢, or 4.6 per cent, at $1.025. Alumina's only earning asset is its 40 per cent stake in Alcoa World Alumina and Chemicals, with Alcoa holding the remaining 60 per cent. That includes aluminium smelters at Portland and the struggling Point Henry plant in Victoria.
The big miners posted only modest gains, despite further rises in iron ore prices.
BHP Billiton rose 8¢ to $37.58 and Rio Tinto gained 21¢ to $66.81, but Fortescue closed flat at $4.74.
National turnover was 1.49 billion shares worth $3.48 billion.

Should You Test Your Children's Toys For Lead? No.
The Times is reporting that some overzealous parents are manually testing their children's toys for lead. Take Andrew Jones, a well meaning but admittedly paranoid father to a 3-year-old:
Like many parents, Mr. Jones said he was suspicious of all of his daughter's toys now that millions of items for children have been recalled for high levels of lead.
To put his mind at ease, Mr. Jones bought several LeadCheck swab kits from his local hardware store to test dozens of his daughter's toys. So far, he has not found any lead.
After the jump, we explain why this is an utter waste of time.
Home testing kits are not reliable. If you want an accurate reading, be prepared to shell out $25,000 for an industrial grade scanner.
Don't believe us? How about the CPSC, EPA, and CDC? Oh, you hate the government and only trust the private sector? Fine, let's ask the makers of the home testing devices: "Vendors say that test kits are not intended to gauge lead levels but can be useful for parents." So what exactly do they do? "…they can empower the consumer and help parents rule out a product."
We're all for empowering consumers, but parents concerned about the dangers of lead poisoning should focus their fidgety need for action on the lead in old house paint – a significantly more potent and reliable source of danger to children. For now, testing for lead at home has all the use of digging up the backyard in search of gold, without the prospect of finding anything valuable.

Sandy Hook Elementary School shooter Adam Lanza may have tried to sabotage his own computer before going on a murderous rampage that claimed the lives of 20 children, but experienced investigators said today that law enforcement forensic experts could still recover critical evidence from the damaged drives.
Connecticut State Police Lt. Paul Vance revealed Monday that a computer crimes unit was working in conjunction with a forensics laboratory to "dissect" any evidence relevant to the case, but he declined to comment further on what type of evidence was involved and in what condition it was in. Later that day, law enforcement officials told ABC News that police recovered a badly damaged computer from Lanza's home that appeared to have been attacked by a hammer or screwdriver.
Sources said if they can still read the computer's hard drive, they hope to find critical clues that may help explain Lanza's motives in the killing.
Former FBI forensic experts told ABC News that in cases similar to this one, damage to the computer does not necessarily mean the computer files cannot be accessed.
"If he took a hammer to the outside, smashed the screen, dented the box, it's more than likely the hard drive is still intact," said Al Johnson, a retired FBI special agent who now works privately examining digital evidence and computer data. "And even if the hard drive itself is damaged, there are still steps that can be taken to recover everything."
Brett Harrison, a former FBI computer forensics expert who now works with a D.C. consulting firm, said that authorities have a great deal of technology at their disposal to retrieve that data. How much is recovered, he said, will depend entirely on how much damage was done to the well-insulated "platters" -- discs lodged deep inside the machine -- where Lanza's every digital footstep was recorded.
It is likely, he said, that Lanza's computer has been moved to a "clean room" where, if the discs are intact, they could be removed and then carefully re-inserted in a fresh hard drive. If the calibrations are done correctly, investigators would still be able to unlock the clues on the discs.
If the discs aren't in perfect condition, Harrison said, "There is equipment they can use to read the data off a record even if a portion of it is damaged."
Johnson said it is tedious work done in a clean environment because the tolerances of the discs is so precise – even a particle of dust could destroy crucial evidence.
"We're talking about a tolerance of less than a human hair," said Johnson, who now does computer forensics for a South Carolina-based investigative firm.
Police have not said exactly what they expect to find on the computer's hard drive, but the former FBI experts said typically there could be record of visits to violent web sites, or to online stores that sell ammunition, or to email that might reveal if Lanza shared any hints of his plans with others.
"I'm not big on speculation," Harrison said, "but you're talking about potentially finding all the normal things that people do with their computer – Facebook pages, internet activity, email, you name it."
For now, the FBI is keeping mum on what kind of computer forensic help it could be offering in the case.
"At this time, in deference to the ongoing investigation being conducted by the CSP, the FBI is not releasing information regarding operational or forensic assistance provided in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting," an FBI spokesperson said.

Meg Kowalski may not even be in high school yet, but she is already showing she could be one of the best tennis players in the state, and the region, for years to come.
The La Grange resident won the 14-and-under girls division at the prestigious USTA Midwest Section Closed Junior Championship held in Okemos, Mich. She won the final of the six-day tournament on June 27 by defeating top seed Elysia Bolton of Lake Forest 6-1, 6-4.
Kowalski entered the tournament as the No. 7 seed at the tournament, which draws players from five states and is only open to players that have earned enough ranking points to make the 128-player draw. Kowalski won all seven matches in straight sets and didn't need tiebreakers for any sets either.
Highlighting the other local athletes competing in the tournament was Daniel Mateescu (Westchester) taking fourth in the 14-and-under boys singles draw. Mateescu and Mark Wu of Northbrook won the doubles draw for the same age bracket.
Alex Chatt, who will be a senior at Lyons Township in the fall and placed third in state last year, went 3-2 in the girls 18-and-under division. LT junior-to-be Kristen Thoms also went 3-2 in the same draw by picking up three wins in the consolation draw after losing in the first round.

After four years of hard work and perseverance, Chen Po-hsueh (陳柏學) graduated from the Yung Ta Institute of Technology and Commerce in Pingtung County last week as his year's top student in the Department of Management Information Systems.
Although graduating top of his class is an achievement in itself, Chen's efforts are even more laudable considering that he has muscular dystrophy and uses a wheelchair.
However, some credit must also be given to Lo Yen-chi (羅彥智), who has been Chen's best friend and helping hand over the past decade.
It is a story of true friendship that has touched the hearts of many.
The two boys have been best friends since elementary school. When Chen's health began to deteriorate, Lo chose to attend the same junior-high school as Chen and requested to be placed in the same class so that he could take care of his friend.
This friendship and volunteering service continued throughout vocational high school and into their time at college.
For more than 10 years, Lo has remained a true friend, pushing Chen's wheelchair and carrying him up and down the stairs at school.
"It is wonderful to have Lo as my best friend. I feel blessed. I never felt alone throughout my school years," Chen said.
Lo said that "before Chen developed muscular dystrophy, he was just like me, playing and running around, full of youthful energy, but after he became ill, his muscles began to weaken, and he had to use a wheelchair and endure a lot of pain."
"I felt bad seeing him suffer like that. So I decided to stay by his side and help him," Lo said.
"At school, I became Chen's feet. After school, we often went shopping or to the cinema. I hoped to lift his mood by helping him," Lo added.
Chen's classmate Liu Chia-tsun (劉家村) said Chen's family drove him to school every day, and then Lo would take over and look after his friend's needs during and between classes.
"All the students were touched by Lo's considerate assistance. He carried Chen up and down the stairs on his back, and also carried him to the bathroom," Liu said.
"We all feel that Lo is a very kind-hearted, exemplary person. Following Lo's example, the whole class helped take care of Chen. Everyone tried to help out," Liu said.
He added that Chen has an optimistic personality, is very studious and gets along well with everyone.
Institute principal Chen Lien-tung (陳連棟) said this commendable friendship helped Chen face any difficulties with courage.
The principal added that during his four years at the department, Chen passed 27 qualification examinations including software applications, hardware testing and repair, and Web page design.
"Now he is graduating as the department's top achiever. Despite his muscular dystrophy, he has a lot of determination. We expect his future to be bright," the principal said.
Speaking about Lo, the principal said: "We praise his spirit of sacrifice in service of a fellow student. He is like a lit candle that burns to brighten up the lives of others. His kindness is an example for everyone."
When he was awarded the top student honor, Chen encouraged his fellow students as they said goodbye at the graduation event on Friday.
Chen said he would never forget their help and constant support.
He wished the best for all his fellow students and said he would try to find a job to support himself.
"I believe Chen will achieve even more outstanding accomplishments as he heads into society. I am sure our friendship will not change, it will always be strong," Lo said.

Construction of Orthodox chapel of St. Olaf begins in Stiklestad
On 16 July 2014, the foundation of the Orthodox chapel of St. Olaf, King of Norway, was laid in Stiklestad (100 km from Trondheim). The chapel is being built at the site of the death of "Norway's Eternal King". St. Olaf, the heavenly patron of Norway, died in 1030.
Archbishop Mark of Yegorievsk, head of the Moscow Patriarchate's Administration for Institutions Abroad, blessed the foundation stone and the site in the territory of the Stiklestad National Culture Centre on 28 July 2013, the day of the celebration of the Baptism of Russia and the eve of the commemoration day of St. Olaf the Passion-Bearer. The church itself was consecrated in Folldal by Bishop Hilarion (Alfeev), now Metropolitan of Volokolamsk, chairman of the Moscow Patriarchate's Department for External Church Relations.
It is planned to complete the construction of the chapel by the end of August. This year marks the millennium of the baptism of St. Olaf in Rouen, France. To commemorate this memorable date, the assembly of the Orthodox clergymen will celebrate the Divine Liturgy and a thanksgiving at the Orthodox chapel in Stiklestad on October 16.

When you buy mums and asters for fall display, choose plants whose flower buds are just beginning to open so the color will last longer in your garden.
Generally mums and asters will last for 4-6 weeks depending on weather conditions. Season-extender mums that will be available later in the season can keep color going through October and sometimes later, depending on weather.
If you plan to plant mums into a shady site, it is best to wait until the flowers are open before planting. If the mums still are tight in bud when they are planted in shade, the flowers may not open.
Pansies typically will not develop much in the autumn season, so it is best to buy large plants that are in full flower to install in your garden. Plant them close together for a better show.
August and early September were on the dry side with some warm temperatures, so provide supplemental water as needed to any new plants you have installed over the last two to three years.
Newly planted evergreens are particularly in need of watering so that they do not go into winter dry. Evergreens continue to lose water through their leaves during the winter. They are less likely to sustain winter burn if they have plenty of water in their tissues and in the soil around their roots when winter arrives.
Be sure to make notes about any changes you have thought about making to your garden now. It is easy to forget these observations over late fall and winter. Keeping good notes will make you more efficient and your garden better looking.
Have your garden soil tested to determine how best to manage it and what fertilizers to use.
A soil test in fall will confirm the status of your garden soil and help you craft a management plan for your garden soil next year.
Make a composite sample from a few areas in a garden bed and send them in for testing. If your garden is large it is a good idea to break the garden into zones and test each of them. To find a soil testing laboratory, see the website of the University of Illinois Extension at urbanext.illinois.edu/soiltest. Soil tests also can be arranged through some garden centers.
If your soil is typical of the Chicago area, a test will show it to have adequate phosphorus. Choose fertilizers that have little or no phosphorus.

^ when Sega feels like announcing it. they still listing it to be 2013 release, but
does not say anything about the month, heck, or even any info. at all.
and when the game does gets release, we'll probably be 1-2 years behind in contents
anyways. that's just how SEGA rolls. i have lost all faith in Sega ever since they shut down
the PSU on the PC for NA/EU. the contents were WAY behind and barely any updates.

Most of the blocks have designated names, like beginner, hard, very hard, time attack aso, that changes almost every fortnight, but on ship2 b20 is occupied by foreigners all the time, and avoided by most local players.
Just make sure not to join games marked JPN or japanese only, or "no english", as some of the runs are competitive, like interrupt ranking, and we will just cause lag to their game.

I see. I'm definitely enjoying the game, love all the armor and combat is pretty fun. I definitely need to find people to play with though. And yeah, I can see the "hang out 24/7 and play dress up" in b20, it's pretty crowded lol.

No release date = Indefinite delay
I might download the Japanese version, but considering how much of a pain it is to register for an account I probably won't.

Registering an account is pretty easy, if you know how to create a japanese PSN//SEN or nintendo account, you shouldn't have any issues with it. Think someone posted a chrome addon for this purpose, it makes it pretty straight forward, it includes a interface to input hiragana for the captcha check , look for "pso2-extension".

Big update today.
New area, enemies, items
Also skill trees have been updated and a few things have been changed, and as such you get a free reset ticket. A big change is Hunter's Fury Skills, which are now percentage based, so you might end up getting less or more s-atk or r-atk bonus now.
Other news, Episode 2 will be out in this summer, it will add a new class into the game.
Just unlocked the dragon altar and it doesn't seem to be a new TA...

That captcha system is impossible to get pass even with the help of the hiragana keyboard site, and all I got for my troubles were error messages each time I tried to get pass that first part of registration and that is a lot of wasted time I'd rather have not wasted.
I could have gotten a Japanese PSN account set up in less time, and without the help of the translation function in google chrome.

I decided to give it a second go, but this time I opted for refreshing the page until I got a captcha I could solve and then filled in the rest of the form (just don't do a check to confirm the ID is available once you have that manageable captcha since it's changed when you do the check).
The only stumbling block I have now is that it's likely that neither my desktop system or laptop won't be able to run it (both do match most of the requirements, but the former is likely to not have a compatible graphics card and the latter doesn't have sufficient memory since some is being taken up by the graphics card).

Yeah, Koffee's client orders now gives you exp. This way you can level one, your main, class up quickly. Aside from that, the exp penalty has been changed as well. Think the changes were made so newcomers can get quickly to the VH content, where most people are playing these days.
There has been a lot of changes, like S-rank being scrapped for some COs or time increased, reduction of items that needs to be collected, enemies (bosses) made easier, TA soloable aso.

With Developer Program, Nest Raises Questions
This week Nest Labs introduced its Nest Developer Program, which integrates smart devices for both home and lifestyle uses. The results suggest that energy efficiency is going mainstream without most people even knowing it. This program, which has already enrolled partners such as Mercedes-Benz, Whirlpool, Jawbone (UP24 maker), LIFX, and Logitech, allows communications between smart devices in order to influence and optimize their overall functionality. For example, the Nest thermostat could receive better information on a homeowner's sleep/wake cycle, whereabouts, and habits from data transmitted through the UP24 bracelet. It can then incorporate this information into its intelligent algorithm for determining household heating and cooling patterns.
But that's only a small part of it. Nest has already taken a stab at utility-scale demand response (DR) through its Rush Hour Rewards program for climate control, but the program can now enroll other energy-heavy appliances, such as washers and dryers, in the same DR events. Following device trends in electric vehicle charging, where smart communications are increasingly integrated and relied upon, it's fair to speculate that this type of developer program has the potential to solve a lot of the problems utilities are currently facing as growing renewables penetration causes instability along the distribution grid.
Privacy Pushback
The potential to optimize energy usage will grow significantly as cloud-based home energy management advances technologically and adds functionality. But the market is likely to experience setbacks as privacy issues are raised. Nest and Apple have both created privacy guidelines for data as it is communicated between devices, but protection and control over this information will still be an issue for customers. As public utilities incorporate software platforms for managing connected devices, it's unlikely they will be able to avoid the type of pushback (seen here, here, and here) that has hindered the deployment of smart meters.
Another question inherent in this move to a connected life is how the interaction between devices and software will take shape. Nest and its associated partners have built value propositions off the premium quality of their networked thermostats and the software that controls them. But competitors like EcoFactor and EnergyHub build value off the ability be flexible in the devices they connect to – asking if premium devices are really all that necessary to realize the same gains. When you involve multiple customer demographics (with different levels of income and values) and budget-conscious public organizations, different needs and limitations will require different solutions. There's no denying that people become emotionally connected to well-made, well-designed hardware – and they will pay a premium for it. But, as the cellphone industry has shown, there are limitations in terms of hardware development. So how long will the novelty last for thermostats?

THE grand final weekend proved a bonanza in Melbourne and Sydney for the hotel sector, with record occupancies across all properties.
With the tourists came the dollars and airlines, restaurants and retailers all benefited.
Initial figures from Australia's largest hotel group, Accor, showed that Melbourne, where the AFL grand final was held, attracted the largest number of interstate visitors, with Accor's 17 hotels in the city area boosted by an influx of Sydney Swans visitors.
Sydney's long weekend and the NRL grand final saw Accor's nine hotels in western Sydney, including four in Sydney's Olympic Park, with 100 per cent occupancies.
The Victorian regional manager at Accor, Adrian Williams, said Melbourne hotels normally had strong weekend business. ''But with it being a long weekend back in Sydney we saw the Sydneysiders use the extra day to make it a long weekend in Melbourne, so our hotels boasted close-to-full occupancies on Friday and Sunday nights, as well as a sellout on Saturday. Even hotels as far away from the MCG as Glen Waverley enjoyed a bumper weekend.''
New South Wales regional manager at Accor Scott Boyes said that given the NRL final was held late on a Sunday afternoon of a long weekend it meant that the usually quiet Sunday night became one of the strongest.
''Even better, the whole city benefited. Western Sydney had its strongest weekend of the year, while the city also recorded near-full occupancy,'' Boyes said.
''We didn't have as many Melbourne Storm fans come to Sydney compared to Swans fans going to Melbourne, but Sydney had many activities on over the weekend.''
Accor owns and manages hotels such as the Pullman and Sofitel at Sydney Olympic Park.
The Mantra group also reported strong occupancies with all six Mantra Melbourne city hotels, including at Jolimont, running at 100 per cent on both Friday and Saturday nights with a 12 per cent revenue per available room (revpar) growth across both days in Melbourne compared with grand final weekend 2011.
Mantra's four Sydney CBD hotels recorded a 6 per cent revpar growth compared with 2011. The city ran close to capacity with thousands of Melbourne Storm fans in town.

A lack of iodine may partly explain why Australian schoolchildren are being beaten in international tests by their counterparts in Korea, Singapore and Hong Kong, according to an expert on iodine deficiency.
Prime Minister Julia Gillard has set the goal of Australia's school system being in the world's top five by 2025.
International test results released in December placed Australia 27th in the world in year 4 reading, 22nd in science and 18th in maths.
Writing for Fairfax Media today, Cres Eastman, a professor of medicine at the University of Sydney and an internationally noted expert on iodine deficiency, says the top performing systems, including Singapore, Korea and Hong Kong, had diets that were rich in iodine because of salt iodisation and consumption of fish and seaweed.
In contrast, he said a national survey of schoolchildren in 2003-04 had confirmed the re-emergence of iodine deficiency here after an absence of almost half a century.
The main cause of the problem was that the dairy industry had stopped using iodine to sterilise milk containers, because it caused fluctuating levels - but this had been compounded by the reluctance of consumers to buy iodised salt for home use, and the fact that the local food industry made only limited use of it in food manufacturing.
Since 2009, Australian regulations have required iodised salt be used in all bread except organic bread.
The World Health Organisation has identified iodine deficiency as the ''commonest global cause of preventable loss of intellectual performance''. During pregnancy moderate to severe iodine deficiency can cause an irreversible loss of 10 to 15 IQ points in offspring. Health authorities recommend iodine supplements of 150 micrograms a day for pregnant or breast-feeding women.
Professor Eastman said iodine deficiency was not the only cause of Australian schoolchildren's poor performance but ''may well be a significant contributory factor''.

Our hypothesis for this ultra-scientific MZone study is as follows:
Even when paying over face value for the handful of big games in which supply and demand cause StubHub ticket prices to rise, it will still be cheaper - and probably substantially so - to buy one's tickets each week via StubHub
To recap the parameters of our study and what different seats in The Big House cost:
We're assuming two tickets to each game (together) and looking at different seat locations, all of which now require a "preferred seat donations" (aka PSDs). For those not familiar with PSDs, Michigan's website describes them as follows:
The Victors Club Preferred Seat Donation is a part of University of Michigan Athletics overall annual giving program. Currently, three sports have some portion of the season tickets requiring a Preferred Seat Donation -- Football, Men's Basketball Courtside Seats, and Ice Hockey Club Seats. (Note: Courtside and Hockey Club Seats are sold out. You may contact the Victors Club Office to learn more about future availability.)
The color-coded diagram indicates the football preferred seating areas of Michigan Stadium. There are four different annual donation requirements -- Victors ($500 per seat), Valiant ($375 per seat), Maize ($250 per seat) and Blue ($125 per seat). The End Zone donation requirement ($50 per seat) applies to any new season tickets holders in 2005 and beyond.
Cost to Purchase U-M Season Tickets in 2012
Michigan only has 6 homes games this season due to the opener in Dallas against Alabama. And of those six games, all of them have a face value of $75 each - except the MSU game which is $95 per ticket. Thus, one's "face value" ticket cost would be $470 per ticket. But...
The Athletic Department cuts one a break and charges only $390 for season tickets, which works out to $65 per ticket (it's impossible to know how/if they charge differently for the "big" games so we'll have to make it an even $65 each).
Then tack on your "donation" of $50-$500 per seat and your actual cost of one season ticket is $440 in the endzone, $515 in the "Blue" section, $640 in the "Maize" section, $765 in the "Valiant" section and $890 in the "Victors" section. Now double that for a pair of tickets.
Well, this is it. The last home game of the 2012 Michigan season and, thus, the last in this series. First we'll look at Iowa prices then talk about the season as a whole. Note: The ticket prices for this article were gathered on StubHub late Wednesday night. At the time, there were just under 2,900 tickets available for sale.
Season Ticket Price - Endzone Seats:
You, dear season ticket holder, have two seats in the endzone which cost $130 plus $100 for your PSD divided by 6 ($16.67) for a grand total of $146.67.
StubHub Price - Endzone Seats:
We found two in Endzone Section 39, Row 87 for $33/each. Now take on $4.95 for the StubHub "electronic delivery charge" (read: a fancy way to charge you for an email) and $6 bucks for StubHub's service fee.
Endzone Total:
Season Ticket Endzone Guy - $146.67
StubHub Dude - $77.55
Winner: Mr. StubHub - $69.12
Want better seats? Okay...
Season Ticket Price - Maize Section:
Two tickets in sideline sections 3, 4, 20, 21, 42 or 44 cost you the same $130 as Endzone Guy. But you also had to shell out $500 divided by 6 ($83.33) for a grand total of $213.33 for your chance to watch Michigan take on the Wildcats.
StubHub Price - Maize Section:
Found two in Section 42, Row 62 for $50 each. Same $4.95 "electronic delivery charge" and a service fee of $10 for a total of $114.95.
Maize Section Total:
Season Ticket Maize Guy - $213.33
StubHub Dude - $114.95
Winner: Still Mr. StubHub by $98.38
Now let's live large...
Season Ticket Price - Victors Section
Two tickets in Section 1, right on the 50, only cost you $65 each as part of your season tix. But $1,000 divided by 6 tacks on another $166.67 (yikes!).
StubHub Price - Victors Section Price:
I found two tix in Section 2, Row 82 for $65 each (plus $4.95, plus a service charge of 130).
Victors Section Total:
Season Ticket Victors Guy - $296.67
StubHub Dude - $147.95
Winner: NOT Season Ticket Guy by $148.72
Season Totals
So, what's the bottom line and was our hypothesis correct? First, one caveat to these totals:
We didn't start this series until after the Air Force game and thus don't have exact figures, but a cursory check before that game as we were thinking about a post topic like this revealed something between the UMass and Illinois numbers. Thus, in order to get our season totals we'll factor that in here today and unscientifically pick an amount between UMass and Illinois.
Endzone Seats on StubHub:
UMass - Saved $64.72
Illinois - Saved $31.72
MSU - In the red $155.28
Northwestern - Saved $42.72
Iowa - Saved $69.12
Air Force Guesstimate - Saved $45
Total Endzone StubHub Savings/Loss for the 2012 Season - Savings of $98.12
Maize Seats on StubHub:
UMass - Saved $87.38
Illinois - Saved $43.38
MSU - In the red $176.62
Northwestern - Saved $52.18
Iowa - Saved $98.38
Air Force Guesstimate - Saved $63
Total Maize Section Savings/Loss So Far - Savings of $167.70
Victors Seats on StubHub:
UMass - Saved $165.24
Illinois - Saved $98.12
MSU - In the red $161.48
Northwestern - Saved $117.92
Iowa - Saved $148.72
Air Force Guesstimate - Saved $130
Total Victors Section Savings/Loss So Far - Savings of $498.52 *
For the 2012 season, Michigan fans buying all their tickets on StubHub saved a good chunk of coin over getting season tickets - a chunk of change that got larger the better the seats purchased.
Endzone ticket buyers saved 11%
Maize ticket buyers saved 16%
And Victors ticket buyers saved a whopping 39%
So this completely proves our hypothesis, right? In the words of Lee Corso, not so fast.
As noted, the 2012 Michigan home schedule - how should we put this? - sucked balls. There was only one "must see" game: Michigan State. And as the tally above indicates, that didn't exactly work out in the StubHub purchaser's favor (especially for EndZone guy).
Next year, Michigan has three marquee home games: Notre Dame (for the last time!), Nebraska (revenge) and Ohio State (Urb's first game in The Big House with the Bucks). Thus, one could reasonably expect to pay - and I think this is the correct term - a f*ckload more for those games.
On the flip side, Michigan also has 7 home games instead of this season's 6, which is one more "enh" game in favor of a StubHub purchase. Plus, one of those 7 is Akron. Forget StubHub, Dave Brandon will probably be trying to dump his pair before that game for a stick of gum and half-finished bottle of Coors Light.
My guess is that any StubHub savings will be wiped out next season due to The Big Three games. But, like poker, where one must factor not one night or one week in Vegas but the ups and downs over a much longer period of time, I still believe that, over said long haul, StubHub will be cheaper.
(Ed. Note: the assumption for the Michigan fan in our "study" is that he/she goes to each and every home game. If you don't - if you only want to catch a couple each year, then StubHub is REALLY the way to go (unless you're a big fan of CMU, Akron and Indiana with plans to sell your ND, Nebraska and OSU ducats). Because if you're only going to the "big" games - or the "big" games and a couple others - then selling the rest on StubHub, you're probably going to take a huge bath since you're going to lose big on the "lesser" games in the secondary market.)
One commenter when we first started this series said the reason to purchase season tickets is to support the university. I don't really buy that one. It's not like paying less on StubHub means the athletic department gets less. Somebody has already paid the school full price for the tickets and seat license fees before they hit StubHub. Plus, I'd be very surprised if U-M wasn't getting some sort of piece of all the BS extra StubHub charges for making StubHub the official U-M ticket reseller. So the school is doing fine. Plus, the season ticket wait list is thousands long. Don't worry about Dave Brandon.
Thus, if it's just about the numbers, see above to guide your decision regarding season tickets. And if it's not? Well... Some people enjoy sitting next to the same group of people each season (unless you're seats have you stuck sitting next to "that guy"). Some people like knowing where their seats are each week. And some people just like to say they have season tickets.
So, bottom line - does this "study" prove you should buy season tickets or go the StubHub route?
I think, more than anything, what our little series "proves" is that Dave Brandon and the Michigan athletic department better think long and hard before they keep raising ticket prices and seat "donation" charges. Because they might unwittingly start making the decision for Michigan fans without even realizing it.

There's something intrinsically appealing about a Corvette that appears to be bulging at the seams. The widened rear fenders of the '90 ZR-1, for example, wrapped around the steamroller Goodyears like Cindy Crawford wearing a just-tight-enough pair of jeans in a Guess? ad. The same goes today for the '06 Z06 and its flared bodywork.
Corvette builder and racer Jeff Nowicki, of Specter Werkes/Sports, knows all about the subtleties of the Corvette form. He's been enhancing the Vette's shape at his Troy, Michigan, shop for the better part of 10 years, and he's the first one to admit too much of a good thing can ruin the sensual shape of the car.
"The Corvette's [shape] has always been carefully proportioned," he says. "There are ways of accenting it that enhance the muscular, performance ethic, but too-wide panels or outlandish wings detract from its essence."
Nowicki transferred his philosophy into fiberglass with the original, C5-based Corvette GTR. These made-to-order supercars featured wider replacement front and rear fenders, as well as correspondingly widened fascias. The GTRs had a more dramatic "Coke bottle" silhouette, which helped dramatize the cars' lines and cover wide rubber, but the uninitiated had to look twice to see the difference-unless the GTR was parked next to a "skinny" C5.
The GTR was a complete, turnkey car offered through two exclusive Chevy dealers, but Specter also developed a group of a la carte exterior, interior, and performance upgrades under the Group 5 label. These weren't-and aren't-simply the GTR components offered to the DIYer. The Group 5 components consist of unique ground effects, fascias, spoilers, and more. And rather than being sold through a couple of dealers, the Group 5 parts were offered to anyone who wished to order them directly or drop off his Vette at the Specter shop for upfitting.
Now, Specter Werkes has launched the Group 6 lineup for the sixth-generation Corvette. Yes, it's a looker, with fender flares and an appropriately sized rear spoiler, but it's also a Z06 fighter. Specter's prototype car pumps out more than 500 normally aspirated horses from the 6.0-liter LS2 V-8.
Like the GTR and Group 5 designs, the Group 6 complement of exterior upgrades embellishes the factory's form without cartoonish exaggeration. But where the C5 exterior components offer a smooth, tailored look, the Group 6 has a harder, racetrack demeanor-as if the designer sport coat has given way to a bicep-stretched T-shirt.
"The basic form of the C6 is a race car, and the Group 6 components build on that," says Nowicki.
The success of Corvettes-including the LeMans-winning factory team-on the racetrack undoubtedly influenced the Group 6's design. Several of Nowicki's customers have left cars at the shop with instructions for Specter Werkes to give them the look of a road-going racecar.
Well executed in form and proportion, the bolt-on Group 6 parts include an extractor hood, an aero package with rear spoiler, and rear wheel flares. The silver prototype in our photos wears HRE 840R wheels wrapped in Michelin PS2 rubber, sized 275/35-19 in front and 335/30-20 in the rear.
"We wanted to give the car a more aggressive stance, while keeping the identity of the production design," Nowicki says. "The front chin is functional, channeling air to the brake ducts, and gives the car a meaner look. The rear wheel flares allow 12-inch-wide tires to fit."
Specter Werkes/Sports offers the individual components of the Group 6 package separately.
Naturally Aspirated
With the willing, 400-horse LS2-which retains elements of the previous LS6 engine, including the cylinder heads-as a starting point, the Group 6's engine was treated to Specter Werkes' "Matrix 1" makeover, which included a special-grind camshaft, CNC-ported cylinder heads (with larger valves), a Lingenfelter cold-air box, LG Motorsports long-tube headers (with 3-inch X-pipe) blowing into a Corsa exhaust system, and a pan full of Mobil 1 oil. It's a relatively simple combination that, while requiring some careful tuning for optimal performance, delivers 525 hp and 435 lb-ft of torque.
This is race-car horsepower and time-warping torque. Besides the output, however, is the Group 6's rumble and idle quality. It barks to life with a raspy growl, thanks to the long-tubes and Corsa pipes, but it settles into a thumping, low-rpm idle that instantly reminds us of the solid-lifter days of yore. The moment you hear it, you think one thing: "Man, that thing's got some cam." With 500-plus horsepower, the Group 6 has no trouble hazing the nubs off the new Michelin PS2s. Throttle response is more immediate, too, thanks to a few well-placed taps of the laptop keyboard.
Surprisingly, all this power is channeled through an otherwise stock drivetrain. The cooling system is stock, and so are the six-speed manual transmission and clutch.
"All the factory parts are more than adequate for the power," says Nowicki.
Those with a stronger need for speed can order up a stroked Matrix II powerplant, a 7.0-liter C5-R-derived engine, and a Matrix SC engine equipped with a MagnaCharger blower. These upgrades ain't exactly cheap, but as the axiom goes, speed costs.
The full Group 6 treatment also encompasses suspension and brake enhancements, including Stop Tech ST-60 brakes with six-piston front calipers and four-piston rear calipers clamping down on drilled rotors-including huge 330mm (13-inch) units up front. The suspension receives the T-1 upgrade kit from GM, which includes new front and rear springs, stabilizer bars, upper and lower front A-arms, and stronger links.
Inner Style
Along with the exterior and performance upgrades, the Group 6 package also includes a sumptuous upholstery upgrade, with Spinneybeck Italian suede. The burgundy-color material, embroidered with the Group 6 emblem on the headrests, adds a decidedly upscale aura to the Corvette's cabin, complementing the 525 hp in true velvet-hammer form.
All told, the exterior, interior, and performance enhancements of the Group 6-including installation, tuning, and paintwork-run about $30,000. Even with a brand-new Corvette, that's not much more than the cost of a new Z06. There's also the intangible quality of exclusivity-not too many other enthusiasts will have one.
What we really like about the Group 6 lineup, however, is the cafeteria-style options menu. Don't like the extractor hood? Leave it off. Want everything but the T-1 suspension? No problem.
"It is first and foremost the customer's car," says Nowicki. "He tells us how to build it."
While the quantifiable traits of the Group 6-such as the Matrix I engine's dyno numbers or the skidpad performance of the T-1 suspension and Michelin PS2 tires-are easily justified, the intangible traits are the package's real strengths. The hunkered-down stance, just-try-me idle quality, and race-ready form are simultaneously unmistakable and understated.
For those who appreciate such a design philosophy, the Group 6 backs up its form with searing function.
Inside Specter Werkes/Sports
For the past 16 years, Jeff Nowicki has built a reputation crafting Corvettes from his facility in suburban Detroit. He founded Specter Werkes/Sports in 1990, and today it not only builds Corvettes and Corvette upgrades, but does design work and prototype building for the OEMs. The company also includes vehicles such as the Cadillac CTS in its enhancements repertoire. (The Pontiac Solstice is another possibility being considered.)
Not bad for a guy who started out working for various prototype shops, as well as GM Design, while taking side projects after hours.
"It all grew out of the work I was doing outside of my regular jobs," says Nowicki. "I had the shop going while I was at GM, and it just became clear that this is what I needed to do."
Design work was in Nowicki's blood. His father, Ron Nowicki, worked at GM Design for 36 years and was the chief studio engineer for the C5. By January 1998, Specter Werkes built its first GTR, which is still owned by its original owner-Chevy dealer Jeff Cauley. About 30 of the exclusive cars have been built since, along with countless other special customer projects, race cars, and Group 5/Group 6 cars.
The Specter Werkes shop typically contains three or four cars in various stages of construction. On our recent visit, the projects included the GTR conversion of an '04 Corvette Z06 Commemorative Edition, which, when finished, will still wear the factory-style blue paint and graphics. It is the third GTR Specter has built for an enthusiastic Colorado customer.
"Customers are extensions of our team," says Nowicki. "We invite them to track-day events and other get-togethers. It's like a fraternity of like-minded enthusiasts."
At track days, Nowicki is as much participant as host. He holds four SCCA divisional autocross championships, two SCCA road-racing championships, and has participated in everything from the World Challenge to the '04 Grand-Am Rolex series.
But even the best customers aren't privy to the OEM design work that goes on at Specter Werkes. In fact, there were parts of the Specter facility we couldn't photograph: the curtained areas that contained ongoing modeling and prototype work. We'd tell you more about it, but we'd have to kill you afterward-if Nowicki hasn't already killed us in the meantime. He is famously and rightfully protective of this work, and no one simply waltzes back to the shop's work area without his knowledge or escort.
Let's see . . . design work, Corvette construction, prototype building, and successful racing experience. Is there a downside to Nowicki's life?
"Well," he says, "My wife, Brenda, won't let me near her when I smell like fiberglass resin."

The ten people injured in a Brisbane train accident have been discharged from Redland Hospital, which had moved patients from the emergency ward to prepare for the "influx" of patients.
Director Medical Services Doctor Rosalind Crawford said nurses and doctors were put on stand-by and patients moved as the hospital heard news of the Cleveland line crash on Thursday morning.
The hospital treated 10 people for minor injuries such as cuts, bruises, back and shoulder pain and all of them had been discharged by 12.30pm.
"It is our standard practice to prepare for a worst case scenario," Dr Crawford said.
"In the initial stages of the emergency, we did not know how many people were involved, and what their injuries would be.
"Staff from across the hospital worked together smoothly and swiftly to prepare for a serious event involving multiple casualties and I'd like to acknowledge their professionalism."
The 7.55am Doomben-Cleveland train overshot the tracks and crashed into Cleveland station at 9.40am, ploughing six metres into into the men's and women's bathrooms.
There were 13 passengers in the train's six carriages and five people on the platform at the time.
A woman in the ladies bathroom was lucky to escape without serious injury, but police Superintendent Jim Keogh said the male bathrooms bore the brunt of the damage.
"Certainly could have had catastrophic circumstances if a male person had been in the toilets - he certainly would have died," Superintendent Keogh said.
Queensland Rail issued a statement reporting all customers and staff had safely left the train and station building by 11.30am.
But the crash has sent shock waves through the local community.
Brian Scott, from Redlands Realty, ran to the station after he heard a "really loud noise" and saw a "huge cloud of smoke and dust".
"It was like a big roar, and then a thud - it was pretty frightening," Mr Scott said.
"We saw the train in the air and inside the platform it was unbelievable. Not much exciting happens this end of the world. I think we'll be talking about this for a while."
Another local man, who did not wish to be named, said he and his friend helped pull the young woman found in the bathroom to safety.
"The force had pushed her up against the other wall - she was inside the cubicle," he said. "My mate pulled of the door he grabbed her - she said nothing, she was clearly in shock.
"She had her earphones in she hadn't heard anything."
He said there was an elderly woman at the station "just screaming" in the wake of the incident.
"I've never seen anything like it," he said.
Meanwhile Acting Station Officer for Cleveland Station Rob Hawxwell said he arrived on scene to discover that his 16- year-old-son was but seconds away from entering the men's bathroom when the train crashed through.
"He was just feet away," Mr Hawxkwell said. "He's gone home very shaken."
Mr Hawxwell said it took emergency crews between five to 10 minutes to remove people from the back end of the first carriage.
He said they appeared to have suffered only scrapes and bumps.
Queensland Rail cut power to the station after the crash caused damage to overhead powerlines.
Services are currently suspended between Cleveland and Wellington Point and eight buses are being used to transport customers between the stations.
The Rail Safety Regulator is on site and salvage crews are moving in to determine how to remove the train.

This is probably the time of the year I hate the most. And no, I'm not talking about winter, although I could.
This is the time of year I do my annual house reorganizing. As I'm putting away all the Christmas decorations and the gifts I got for Christmas, it just seems like the ideal time to get rid of things I don't need.
Sounds simple enough, doesn't it?
So why is it always so difficult to do? I mean, they're just things. They're not living creatures I'm responsible for, like my cat. Do I own my possessions, or do they own me? They're only accessories, after all; they're not supposed to define me.
To keep it simple, I divide everything I have into four categories: the things you need; the things you want; the things that have sentimental value; and the things you may need someday.
Two of the categories are obvious: the essential things you need, like food and clothes, and the things that have sentimental value, like my father's old bowling shirt or my grandmother's Bible, full of letters, yellowing newspaper clippings and little black-and-white pictures of people I don't know. I really don't need the pictures, but since they were important enough to my grandmother to keep, maybe I should, too.
The third: the things I want. Or do I? This may be the most difficult. I used to collect books. Many, I haven't read in a long time. But I know as soon as I get rid of one, I'm going to want it back. Once you discard something, it's gone forever; unless, of course, you can find it on eBay.
So, at the risk of wasting money to buy something back I already have, I suppose it's better to keep it all until I'm really sure I don't want it.
No, it's the fourth category that is the trickiest. It's the stuff I don't have a use for right now, but I may someday. For instance, I have a box full of cute little Christmas glasses I got years ago. I keep them in the basement, wrapped in the same paper they came in, untouched. Even though I mean to bring them out every Christmas, I either forget I have them until it's too late or I can't be bothered.
Not far from the glasses, there's a heavy, twisted wrench kind of thing in an old, oily tool case. I don't where it came from or what it's used for. Every time I see it, I vow to throw it out.
The thing is, I just know that if I throw the dishes and the wrench-like thing out, next Christmas I'll host a big family celebration where the glasses will come in handy and someone will need the wrench-like thing. And I'll have to kick myself because I won't be able to find either one on eBay.
I suppose I could just leave everything as it is and leave it up to the relatives to do when I'm gone. The problem with that is, I hate the idea of someone finding something in the attic, and wondering, "What'd he ever want that for?"
Since they're all my things and I'm the one who spent time accumulating them, I have no choice but to force myself to do it.
There is another reason I want to reorganize my house. The ugly truth is, I need space for spring garage sales. Even though I know better, I don't want to miss out on some sharp-looking clothes that will fit if I only lose a few pounds or some tools I think I should have that I'll never be able to use.
SideLines: The art of letting go
This is probably the time of the year I hate the most. And no, I'm not talking about winter, although I could.

Long-serving Warriors assistant coach Tony Iro turned down an improved offer to stay at the club, instead opting to effectively become unemployed rather than join the Matt Elliott-led revolution.
The Herald understands Iro is still in negotiations with the Sydney Roosters, however the Sydney club is no longer confident of luring the Kiwis assistant after failing to reach terms.
Iro is believed to be eyeing an opportunity at the New Zealand Rugby League. Chief executive Jim Doyle is to retire at the end of the year. Doyle protégé Tony Kemp is understood to have applied for the top job. If he gets it, that would free up Kemp's general manager high performance role - a job for which Iro would be a natural fit.
The Herald understands the Warriors made a big play to keep Iro, who would have been a key figure in helping Elliott get the players on board as he begins his tenure.
Having brought many of the current NRL squad through the ranks during his time as the club's NYC coach, Iro was immensely popular figure with the players.
And having served all through Ivan Cleary's largely successful six-year tenure, Iro's wealth of knowledge about the club's intricacies were viewed as a valuable resource for Elliott. The Herald understands the club initially offered to improve Iro's terms in a bid to convince him to stay, however negotiations soured when Iro would not quickly commit.
Former Raiders assistant coach Andrew McFadden is being tipped to replace Iro. The club is expected to confirm the identity of Elliott's two assistants tomorrow.
The club yesterday confirmed the make-up of its backroom staff. Club legend Ruben Wiki has moved from part-time to a fulltime strength and conditioning role.
As well as Wiki the club has appointed three more fulltime staff to assist head trainer Carl Jennings.
Australian Brad Morris is the sports science manager, long-time servant Dayne Norton becomes rehab and speed coach, while former Crusaders staffer Adam Sadler joins as a performance analyst.
"I love this place and being involved with the players like this is my passion," Wiki said. "I'm really looking to working with [coach] Matt [Elliott] again and also Carl. We go back to the Canberra days."
Wiki's 225-game Canberra career ran from 1993-2004. Elliott was happy to be reunited with Wiki.
Apart from his strength and conditioning role, Elliott said Wiki would also contribute in a coaching capacity by mentoring NRL players.
