On the website itself I get the following error:
Notice: load_plugin_textdomain was called with an argument that is deprecated since version 2.7 with no alternative available. in /var/www/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3553
On the backend in the settings I get the following error:
Notice: Undefined index: rm_submit in /var/www/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/rss-manager/rss_manager_admin.php on line 7
If you could fix this, I will use the plugin. Now it's not possible :(

Roses and Whiskey's acoustic folk music draws its sound from many different influences. While some songs are straightforward folk, others adopt a hip-hop or R&B style.
The duo — Ambur Rose and Luci Bedell — is set to release its new CD, "Little Lovely Layla." The album tells the story of Layla, a girl who offers to go get beer for a party but ends up going on a journey with a man she meets along the way. "It's a story about finding opportunity in the moment and seeing where life takes you when you chose to do the unexpected — for good and bad," Bedell says.
Roses and Whiskey will hold its CD-release party at 10 p.m. Friday, March 14, at Lounge South, 66 Pioneer St., Ashland. The cover is $5.

- What is Laburnum?
- How does Laburnum work?
- Are there safety concerns?
- Dosing considerations for Laburnum.
How does Laburnum work?There isn't enough information to know how laburnum might work.
Are there safety concerns?Laburnum is UNSAFE. All parts, including the seeds and berries, are extremely poisonous. Eating as few as 20 seeds or 3-4 unripe berries can kill an adult. If you accidentally take laburnum, get medical attention right away.
Symptoms of laburnum poisoning include nausea; dizziness; salivation; mouth, throat, and stomach pain; sweating; headache; vomiting; vomiting with blood; spasms; paralysis; decreased urine excretion; decreased breathing; and death.
Special Precautions & Warnings:Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Laburnum is UNSAFE and can cause death. Don't take it.
Dosing considerations for Laburnum.The appropriate dose of laburnum depends on several factors such as the user's age, health, and several other conditions. At this time there is not enough scientific information to determine an appropriate range of doses for laburnum. Keep in mind that natural products are not always necessarily safe and dosages can be important. Be sure to follow relevant directions on product labels and consult your pharmacist or physician or other healthcare professional before using.

AbstractThis review describes the synthesis and characterization of inorganic materials containing polyoxometalates encapsulated in oxide matrices. Examples illustrating key aspects in terms of synthesis and applications are presented according to the nature of the final hybrid material: those based on non-structured silicas, on mesostructured silicas, on macrostructured silicas and on other oxides. In each part, key points of the synthetic protocols are highlighted and structural features and properties of the resultant hybrid nanocomposites are discussed.

I'm a little surprised there is a dropdown in the widget, and can't imagine a user actively wanting to search forum titles and descs instead of every post type throughout the forum.
I'm glad this plugin exists though, I'm patching up my own to take out the dropdown.
I've taken out the dropdown, and replaced it with this:
$form .= '<input type="hidden" value="forums" name="post_type">';
And to search all three post types, modify query vars as such:
add_action('parse_query', 'maybe_modify_query_for_forums_search');
function maybe_modify_query_for_forums_search($query) {
if( !$_GET['s'] && !$query->query_vars['post_type'] == "forums")

I have been with my current family for almost a year. I am a "career nanny" with a degree & 15 years of experience. The market in my area is competitive...I work mainly for sahp's or wahp's part-time. & there is no shortage of nanny jobs! I also do "light housework" as part of my job, which includes standard nanny duties like keeping the kids areas clean & organized, cleaning up after meals & projects & laundry. I also do the parent's laundry, deep clean kid's bathroom, vaccuum, run errands, prep for dinner parties, all if time allows, which it usually does.
When I started, I realized that my job would change as the kids evolved, however, I did not realize just how much. It has quickly reached the point where I can no longer expect to get a break during the day and I may or may not be able to scarf down my own lunch/snacks while the kids eat, much less sit down for awhile, because they both have to be spoon fed & cajoled into eating, should they choose not to eat that day (mom's instructions). The mom is now pregnant & requires ALOT of emotional support & reassurance. Visits from the cleaning ladies are becoming less and less frequent or apparent, I can't figure out which. I am currently pregnant as well, but feel I have worked efficiently throughout my time with this family, getting all of my work done on a timely basis.
My question is when my contract is up, what should I ask for as far as a raise, benefits or contract changes are concerned to reflect the change in circumstances? I will switch to full time as well when their baby is born & they will hire an additional nanny for Saturdays & one day during the week to allow for transportation to activities for each child & ensure that the new baby's nap schedule is not disturbed. I will also take a minimal maternity leave, barring any complications, most of which will fall during a time when they were already planning to travel anyway (that part worked out great!)
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Today at work I looked and noticed this girl staring at me with sex in her eyes.
This girl and I never talk to each other.
I think her only interest is paying her cell phone bill.
She has never said anything sarcastic
So we don't have anything in common.
But that happens between people
we stare at each other when the other busy and think, "If we were at a bar and got drunk, I would fuck that person."
Also a cook that's gay thinks I'm gay because I listen to Ani Difranco and Tegan and Sara so he let me a David Foster Wallace book. I told him David Foster Wallace shot himself, I just googled it, he hung himself. I'll have to tell him tomorrow my mistake.
I've never read a David Foster Wallace book, I'll read it in the bathroom when I shit. I'm reading an Anthony Bourdain about being a cook while shitting now. It is good, really only for kitchen workers though.

So my question is this... Over the years of using wordpress to build websites I notice that at lower resolutions or when zoomed in the site tends to distort. The "Distortion" is different for each site:
menu shifts from one line to two lines
Sidebars overlap onto the main content area
in extreme cases the site totally explodes (everything just scrambles)(I don't see much of this anymore).
Each site varies in what distorts. There are some that don't do it at all. This issue isn't browser specific and I do have some sites that are exempt from this issue.
So my question is: I'm I correct in assuming that these issues are because of the theme?
I know this is kind of broad but it seems too common to be simply a plugin conflict.

Latest 9 Snapshot Includes Control Panel and MythTV Improvements
Kris has just announced that the next testing snapshot is available. Some of the changes will be of interest to MythTV and multiple window manager users:
The next snapshot for PC-BSD 9-CURRENT is now available for download.
Snapshot instructions and general information on providing testing feedback are available here.
This snapshot includes the following changes:
- Update to Control-panel allows it to detect the current window manager and display the configuration tools provided by that desktop environment. Included is a CLI de-info script to get current desktop as well as a list of all installed desktop environments. Thanks to Yuri Momotiuk for this cool feature.
- Added several new MythTV plugins and related ports as well as an icon for MythTV initial setup. We're looking for MythTV users to test these changes and help with documenting MythTV usage in the Handbook.
- Fixed some typos in pbi-manager man pages.
- Corrected some incorrect wallpaper re-sizing on the installer.
- Updated nvidia driver to 270.41.06 which adds support for several GPUs.
- Fixed nvidia driver not loading kernel module at boot.
- Allow user mounting of mmcsd(4) MMC and SD memory cards.
- Added uhidd (USB human interface devices) to the base-system.
- Fixes to the network manager for setting up IPv6 gateway / DNS.
- Fixed bugs in the System Manager checking out ports / system source.
- Added patch for pc-sysinstall which improves wiping backup GPT partition tables.
- Fixed issue with optional components, source / ports not being installed from DVD
- Updated the default beastie.4th boot-splash menu to boot quicker, and more easily halt the countdown
New PBI: Jokosher
The following PBI is now available in Software Manager:
Jokosher: Jokosher is a simple yet powerful multi-track studio. With it you can create and record music, podcasts and more, all from an integrated simple environment.
Thanks to Jesse Smith for creating this PBI and to Blazing Teens for requesting it.
PBI Manager Now Available in FreeBSD Ports
Yesterday Kris committed PBI Manager to the FreeBSD ports collection (/ports-mgmt/pbi-manager). This means that you don't have to wait for PC-BSD 9.0 to be released to try out the new command line suite of PBI tools.
You can find some documentation on the various tools in this section of the PC-BSD 9.0 Handbook. Users are welcome to add to this section to help other users get the most out of PBI Manager.
NOTE: PBI files created for PC-BSD 7.x/8.x (i.e. those available from pbidir.com) will NOT work with PBI Manager as the PBI format has changed for 9.0. You can find the locations of 9 PBIs here.
New PBIs: MuSE and LMMS
The following PBIs are now available in Software Manager:
MuSE: MuSE is an application for the mixing, encoding, and network streaming of sound. MuSE can simultaneously mix up to 6 encoded audio bitstreams (from files or network) plus a sound card input signal. The resulting stream can be played locally on the sound card and/or encoded as an mp3 bitstream sent to a broadcast server. MuSE offers an intuitive interface to be operated realtime and can run in "slick" mode from command line.
LMMS: LMMS aims to be a free alternative to popular (but commercial and closed-source) programs like FruityLoops, Cubase and Logic giving you the ability of producing music with your computer by creating cool loops, synthesizing and mixing sounds, arranging samples, having more fun with your MIDI keyboard and much more. LMMS combines the features of a tracker/sequencer program (pattern/channel/ sample/song/effect management) and those of powerful synthesizers and samplers in a modern, user-friendly and easy to use graphical user interface.
Thanks to Jesse Smith for creating these PBIs and to Blazing Teens for requesting them.

The words "beautiful", "pretty", "gorgeous", and "handsome" all describe something which looks good. When several words have the same meaning, how can you choose which one to use?
The best way to learn similar words is to learn them in phrases. Learn the words that go along with them.
Who do we...
Does punctuation go inside or outside of quotation marks?
We use quotation marks in English in several situations:
when quoting exactly what someone said or wrote
He said, "Don't bother cooking dinner for me."
when naming the title of an article, song, TV episode, etc.
I sang a song I wrote called "Only Once".
when writing about a word or...
Why don't I use the English that I've learned?
A reader asked me this question:
When English speakers ask me something, my response always contains the same old vocabulary and phrases. Instead of using new English that I've learned, I always go back to the simple way of saying things. How can I stop doing that?
So how can you make yourself...
What's the difference between "jail" and "prison"?
Do you know the difference between the words "jail" and "prison"? Learning the difference can teach you not only about these words, but about other words related to crime, courts, and punishment as well.
The meaning of "jail"
If you get arrested, the police take you to a jail. Jails are operated...
How can I improve my writing?
There are so many things to learn when you're trying to learn English! You can't learn everything at once. That's why it's important to focus on improving the things that will make the biggest difference.
Here are three quick and simple changes that you can make to your writing which will make a...

Never trust the pigs in a revolution, especially when they promise to make the farm great again.
So many people had told me they disliked this book that I'd never bothered to read it thinking that I, too, wouldn't like it. Not so. I was fascinated, amused, saddened, angered, and impressed. I read an annotated version, which was helpful, but I was careful not to read the annotations until after I'd read the book. I wish I'd read the information about the Russian Revolution before the book because I'd forgotten some of Russian history and it would have helped to correct my memory. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed this book and it adds to my great respect for George Orwell.
Can you not understand that liberty is worth more than just ribbons?
Man, that Orwell sure knows how to write.
This is a fantastic book, and one that I think is well worth reading to and with kids to spark discussion, which is, I understand, a way in which it is often used. The metaphors in this book are simple but elegant, in a way that is all too often lost from dystopian/utopian fiction aimed at children and teenagers (I'm looking at you Lord of the Flies and The Giver). There's no language in here that would bother a bright child but at the same time it doesn't ever feel patronising or "dumbed-down" (a phrase I've come to loathe). It just is what it is – a story that has resonant themes to which we can all relate, in some ways now more than ever.
Again, this is a story where everyone knows the plot, so I won't really touch on that. This story is clever, and witty, and apt, and surely needs no recommendation from the likes of me to encourage people to read it. It is stimulating, even as an adult, and is the perfect gateway drug into the likes of 1984, Catch 22, Fahrenheit 451, and many other highly esteemed novels of a more adult bent.
PS. I came across this in, of all things, an abridged version (which, I might add, is very nearly as long as the thing itself but with all the nice turns of phrase removed). So don't read that. The original is not terribly difficult, after all!
All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others. I read this in high school. I probably knew enough to understand the allegory & historical connotations; but I'm a little disturbed by how...relevant the story is in 2016. I'm a little worried to read 1984.
What a strange story and kind of creepy.
This little book, about as long as Candide, may fairly be compared with it as a searching commentary on the dominant philosophy of the age.
Animal Farm is a very politcal novel that tells a story about a farm and the way it's run but the story of the animals the way the run the farm represents the 2nd world war and the politics behind it, this technique is known as an allegory. Old Major (a wise old pig) gives the animals a lecture about how unfairly they're treated by the humans. the animals do all the work and don't get any profit, everyone works so hard and don't even get enough food to satisfy their hunger each day, they've had enough. the animals decide to stand up to their rights, and run the farm in a way that is progressive and to shut down the humans and agree that all the animals should be treated fairly. this does not last long when the pigs start to take control of things. they assume that because they're smarter they should have more rites. The start to take advantage of their intelligence by giving themselves more rites and modifying the laws that the animals agreed to live by. while this happens alot more events occur, the animals complete the windmill but then it gets knocked down during war, this reoccurs a number of times, the farm has lost animals due to war but one of the most significate loss' was the death of Boxer who sadly gets taken away then killed by humans. alot of other major events occur that all contribute to the main theme of the novel. Animal Farm was unique from any novel i've read but I did not enjoy it but using an allegory to represent an event that is a big part of history did impress me and they way George Orwell executed it was fantastic.
With an unusually piercing blare of trumpets from the Book-of-the-Month Club, whose co-selection for September it is, and with a resounding ruffle of publicity drums, an odd little book is published today.. There is nothing so startlingly brilliant about this quite elementary fable, it seems to me, to justify a tempest in anything larger than a teacup.
'Animal Farm' may be taken as the most compact and witty expression of the left-wing British reaction to Soviet Communism... [Orwell] writes absolutely without coyness or whimsicality and with such gravity and charm that 'Animal Farm' becomes an independent creation, standing quite apart from the object of its comment. The qualities of pathos in the tale of the betrayal of the animals -- in the account, for example, of Boxer, the faithful horse -- would compel the attention of persons who never heard of the Russian Revolution.''
George Orwell, a talented leftist writer, has emerged as one of Britain's best satirists. Britons, chuckling at his new book, Animal Farm, a 92-page laugh-and thought-provoking satire on Communism and the Soviet Union, are calling its author the most brilliant political satirist since Swift.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0451526341, Mass Market Paperback)Since its publication in 1946, George Orwell's fable of a workers' revolution gone wrong has rivaled Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea as the Shortest Serious Novel It's OK to Write a Book Report About. (The latter is three pages longer and less fun to read.) Fueled by Orwell's intense disillusionment with Soviet Communism, Animal Farm is a nearly perfect piece of writing, both an engaging story and an allegory that actually works. When the downtrodden beasts of Manor Farm oust their drunken human master and take over management of the land, all are awash in collectivist zeal. Everyone willingly works overtime, productivity soars, and for one brief, glorious season, every belly is full. The animals' Seven Commandment credo is painted in big white letters on the barn. All animals are equal. No animal shall drink alcohol, wear clothes, sleep in a bed, or kill a fellow four-footed creature. Those that go upon four legs or wings are friends and the two-legged are, by definition, the enemy. Too soon, however, the pigs, who have styled themselves leaders by virtue of their intelligence, succumb to the temptations of privilege and power. "We pigs are brainworkers. The whole management and organisation of the farm depend on us. Day and night, we are watching over your welfare. It is for your sake that we drink that milk and eat those apples." While this swinish brotherhood sells out the revolution, cynically editing the Seven Commandments to excuse their violence and greed, the common animals are once again left hungry and exhausted, no better off than in the days when humans ran the farm. Satire Animal Farm may be, but it's a stony reader who remains unmoved when the stalwart workhorse, Boxer, having given his all to his comrades, is sold to the glue factory to buy booze for the pigs. Orwell's view of Communism is bleak indeed, but given the history of the Russian people since 1917, his pessimism has an air of prophecy. --Joyce Thompson

2010 GR Awards: Best Wii Exclusive
Posted on Wednesday, December 22 @ 16:37:15 PST by Josh_Laddin
Six short months ago I was settling in and unpacking my stuff at our hotel in LA, flipping semi-indifferently through the pages of E3's mini-guide to the show floor. MvC 3? Awesome, but the news had broken long ago. New Zelda? Interesting, but not jaw-dropping. FFXIV? Well, let's just say there's nothing I've said about that game that can't also be said about the Nazis. But then, like a shining ray of light from on high, I saw a simple entry: Donkey Kong Country Returns, a new installment in the classic series finally being delivered by the master craftsmen at Retro Studios. I bounced around with excitement, had a few drinks in celebration, and may have needed to change my pants afterward - I'm not sure, it's all a blur.
And now that it's here, I'm so damn glad that Retro took their time making it. In a sub-par year for Wii releases and one riddled with disappointments in general, DKCR reigned supreme atop the resurgent 2D platformer genre. It captured the charm and feel of the old-school SNES games, pumped the difficulty up to just short of "brain aneurysm" but never made you want to quit, and made use of the Wii's hardware to create some amazing levels that wouldn't have been possible back in the day. The king of the jungle is back.

Petition calls for a lead department on public sector business continuity
Business continuity professionals are calling on the prime minister to create a single department to consolidate, simplify and clarify public sector business continuity plans.

Business continuity professionals are calling on the prime minister to create a single department to consolidate, simplify and clarify public sector business continuity plans.

A collection of our most popular articles for IT leaders from the first few months of 2016, including: - Corporate giants recruit digitally-minded outsiders to drive transformation - Analytics platforms to drive strategy in 2016 - Next generation: The changing role of IT leaders.
A petition on the Downing Street website calls on Gordon Brown to create "a designated lead department within central government to coordinate, initiate and oversee business continuity management within all other government departments."
Richard Fizthugh of the Business Continuity Expo 2008, which created the petition, said present business continuity responsibilities are spread throughout government. He said an attempt to create an easy-to-use guide on who to call in an incident ran to over 200 pages. "This can't be right," he said.
Pointing to press reports of cyber attacks against the British government and business targets, Fitzhugh said the sector had worked hard to provide resilience against attacks, but it was time to do more. "It is not simply a question of cogent thinking and sensible directorial infrastructure, it underpins the very fabric of society," he said.
David Honour, a signatory to the petition , said, "It is essential that central government follows business continuity best practice. It needs to designate a lead department to coordinate and manage business continuity activities."
Lyndon Bird from the Business Continuity Institute (BCI), a trade body, said a lead department to co-ordinate policy and implement consistent strategies would improve the UK's domestic business resilience and its international trading performance. "The UK will be seen as a safe, secure and consistent place to build and base business operations," he said.

Finding a natural solution
by Susan Melgren, Web Editor
salt, uses for, cleaning, health, beauty, homemade cleaners, kitchen cleaners, bathroom cleaners, grease fire, laundry, stains, dentrifice, natural exfoliant, sore throat, canker sores
Salt is another household staple that offers a lot of uses beyond its intended one. You may already know that salt is a natural abrasive, which makes it good for scrubbing hard-to-clean surfaces, but did you know it can also soak up stains, treat canker sores and brighten laundry? Check out these and other uses for salt below!
1. Remove caked-on food from pots and pans. Soak 3 tablespoons of salt in enough water to cover the crusted-on food. After a thorough soak, the food should scrape off easily.
2. Treat fresh stains. Soak up coffee, red wine or other fresh stains from your carpet by pouring an ample amount of salt on the spot. After the stain and salt have dried, vaccum them up.
3. Make your own "scrubbing bubbles" cleaner. Avoid chlorine-based harsh scrubbers by making your own one-ingredient abrasive cleaner. Just wipe the countertop, bathtub or other dirty surface with hot water, pour on salt, wait a few minutes, then scrub with a rag, sponge or brush.
4. Make a natural oven cleaner. Cleaning your oven is one of the most arduous tasks. To save yourself hours of backbreaking work, try using salt. First, make sure the oven is completely cool. Next, wipe the bottom of the oven with a damp cloth. Then pour a generous amount of salt on the bottom of the oven and let it soak for 10 minutes. Wipe away whatever comes off easily with a damp cloth, then either scrape the remaining gunk with a scraping tool or repeat the process to loosen more baked-on food.
5. Clean your teeth. When combined with baking soda, salt makes a good dentrifice for cleaning teeth and gums. Mix three parts baking soda with one part salt. Dip your toothbrush in the mixture and brush as normal.
6. Make a natural exfoliant. Mix a pinch of salt with olive oil in your palm to create a natural exofoliant for your face. (Note: Because salt is abrasive, limit your use of salt exfoliants, and certainly never use daily.)
7. Treat canker sores, mouth ulcers and other wounds. Because salt is naturally disinfectant with anti-inflammatory properties, rinsing with salt water can help treat canker sores, mouth ulcers and other mouth wounds. A salt water mouthwash is also a good treatment for post-surgery tooth removal. Because long-term use of salt rinses can erode teeth, don't use a salt water rinse for more than two to three weeks.
8. Treat a sore throat. A common sore throat treatment, gargling with salt water can reduce swelling and relieve discomfort from a sore throat by drawing out some of the water from inflamed tissues and cleansing the throat. Although a salt water gargle won't cure your sore throat, it can help relieve symptoms.
9. Set and revive color in the wash. Hard water can cause brightly colored clothing to appear dull after washing. To keep colors vibrant, add a pinch of salt to the wash. Salt sets colors, which is useful for both preventing colors from fading and sealing them so they don't bleed in the wash. Add a half cup of salt to the laundry cycle when washing colors.
10. Put out a grease fire. While water will feed the flames of a grease fire, salt will absorb the grease and help kill the fire. Be sure to douse, not sprinkle, the fire with salt.
11. Shell nuts easily. Soak walnuts and pecans in salt water for a few hours to make them easier to shell.

I've got a question about pixel width in IE vs. safari, firefox, mozilla and the rest...
the width of my content is 703px and it works fine everywhere, but somehow any class i add to the the main content doesn't sit nicely in IE. It comes up about 10% short and to the left.
All i'm trying to do is create a navigation menu, horzontally across the top which has a colored background.
Seems like it oughtta just be
width: 703px and it is everywhere but IE.
Is there some simple way to make an adjustment which will only appear in IE?
anyone solve this sort of problem before?

Thunder F Kevin Durant hits game-winner vs. Lakers in Game 2
Now that's how you cap a comeback.
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant hit a game-winning jumper against the Los Angeles Lakers with less than 20 seconds left in Game 2 of a Western Conference semifinals series.
The Thunder won Game 2 77-75 thanks to a 9-0 run in the final two minutes to close the game. Durant provided the winning hoop by using a Kendrick Perkins screen to get a switch onto Lakers center Andrew Bynum. Durant dribbled hard to his right and turned the corner on Bynum, getting to the baseline, where Lakers forward Pau Gasol was waiting. Durant pulled up from about 10-feet to shoot a one-handed jumper over Gasol and the shot rolled around and in with 18.6 seconds remaining.
"He's a great player, that's what great players do," Lakers coach Mike Brown said.
Durant finished with a team-high 22 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals on 9-for-15 shooting in 42 minutes.
Oklahoma City leads the series 2-0. Game 3 is set for Friday in Los Angeles at Staples Center.

Jared Jeffries, right, enjoys a moment with his brother, Justin, at the Twin Lakes Recreation Center last week.
Chris Howell, our esteemed photographer, writes a weekly column for the Herald-Times. For Monday, he caught up with Hoosier great Jared Jeffries. Above is Howell's photo and below are his words. Enjoy.
Believe it or not, Jared Jeffries didn't always believe he would be an NBA player.
"Basketball was always something I just did," he said. "It wasn't like I was in love with it."
"About my sophomore year (of high school)," he said. "I really decided that basketball was something I could do, I could make a living at."
For his mother, Cecelia Jeffries, it was a little surprising as well.
"Not once had I ever thought that's what he would do," she said.
She always knew he enjoyed playing, but never thought that one day he would play college basketball as a Hoosier.
"The first time that he walked out there on that floor," she said, "I just sat there and bawled. Because I had no idea … 'This is really my son,'" she thought to herself the first time he walked onto the floor at Assembly Hall.
Now, almost 10 years later, Jared Jeffries has a wife, Jenny, and a daughter, Evangeline, and does his best to get home to Bloomington when he can.
Last week was his annual youth basketball camp at Twin Lakes Recreation Center, and one of his only opportunities to come home and relax with family and friends.
"It's really nice because we just kind of sit around and talk and eat," Cecelia said. "It's very low key, but a lot of fun and relaxing."
Jared, nearly 30 now, spent last week catching up with old friends and family.
"I think it's amazing that 10 years have gone by since I finished high school," he said. "I don't get the chance to come home that often, but when I do I try to make it count by getting around to see everybody," he said.
He takes these opportunities to share with his 2-year-old daughter some of the things he did as a child.
"My little girl had never roasted marshmallows, so we made a fire and roasted marshmallows the first night I was here," he said.
Jared's family looks forward to their time together as well.
"We try to fish as much as we can when he's up here," said Jared's brother, Justin Jeffries. "The first day he was here, me, him and my dad went out fishing on our boat. He was here for a half hour and we were already out there fishing."
Along with visiting family, Jeffries keeps busy with the Jared Jeffries Foundation basketball camp and helps the kids have fun playing basketball.
"I think a lot of times kids now put a lot of pressure on themselves … trying to take the game too serious," he said.
"A lot of kids, just physically, you're not going to be in the NBA. You're not tall enough. You're not fast enough," he said.
"But you can have a lot of fun at basketball. You can get a college scholarship, and you can enjoy college," he said.
"A lot of times, once people realize that they're not going to be in the NBA or they're not going to an Indiana, they get frustrated," he said. "They get down on themselves and they quit playing or they give the game up."
"That's unfortunate," he said. "The biggest thing a parent can do is just help a kid enjoy the game itself, and know that this is one of the few things in life that whatever you put into basketball always comes back to you."
"I've worked really hard at basketball, but basketball has always given back to me," he said.
Jeffries plans to give back to Bloomington in the fall by putting on a concert sometime in September to help raise money for area high school coaches.
"Everywhere right now, the education system is having a hard time," he said. "So I feel like that's one of the main areas I want to focus on and be involved in."
Jeffries knows all too well the time and effort his coaches put in with him and his teammates while he was growing up in Bloomington. He wants to make sure that kids today will continue to benefit from that help.
"The amount of effort and time that they put in just helping kids and molding kids," he said, "they deserve some kind of pay."

What a class act. Jared is a great example of what a true Hoosier Basketball player is all about. Between him and Calbert Cheaney, we have plenty to brag about in this state.
Its good to see he comes backs back and doesnt forget from where he came.
I remember when he really stepped it up when IU beat Duke in the Final four. Bitter sweat. True Hoosier all the way. He looks really jacked compared to when he was in college.
It was a regional semi at Lexington. I was in attendance. One of the greatest comebacks in Hoosier history against #1 Duke. It was a true team effort. Odle and A.J. Moye also had great games to rally the Hoosiers from 17 points down. Mike Davis made some sensational adjustments at halftime getting Odle great looks inside early in the second half. I have the entire game on VHS tape…love to pull it out once in a while.
Didn't quite get that elusive 6th banner that year, but if there were banners given out for teams who "Compete, Dude, Compete" for national championships, IU would have surely come away with another cloth to hang from that magic run. Wish I could have watched it in person like the poster 'Almost.'
Although he will get credit for the halftime adjustments, if you ask the players, Mike Davis actually had nothing to do with them. That team was pretty much coached by the players on the floor.
It looks like there is a lot going on with this Gunner Kiel to IU rumor everywhere but here. Any thoughts from this board's assembled posters?
Gunner has stated how much influence Dusty was to him while growing up and how close they still are but in these final weeks are not talking about his decision. He has made comments as to how far away Oklahoma was but he felt he could deal with it(probably thinks the same about Alabama). Is going to go to Mizzou in a day or two. He readily admits his folks are his closest confidants. If his choice is out of state, and he and Dusty have home games on the same Saturday does Mom go to one location and Dad the other? Once he joined the HS team he relates how fast he learned because Dusty was there at practice everyday to help him. He has kept his recruitment profile so low key I doubt the reputation of the Sooners or Tide excites him more than IU does. He also has publicly said he likes Coach Wilson, his coaching resume and past accomplishments along with the staff he has hired. This family is to close to separate. If this were a horse race I believe IU is leading by a neck and finishes.
JPat, Mike P do you think similarly?
I think Big Bob is on to something.
Outside of halftime adjustments, the players coached themselves against Duke?..We know at least one Hoosier did. I guess that explains Fife's asinine foul that nearly cost us the game. I suppose that's the only moment when Davis was coaching. It probably went down something like this in the final timeout huddle:
Coach Davis: "Dane, we have a four point lead..First, you're my best perimeter defender so don't pay any attention to Williams. Daydream of spending a day at the beach on the shores of Lake Michigan with the Fab Five and hopefully it will be possible for Williams to be open enough to snatch a rebound or get free coming off a screen. Second, if he gets the ball at the top of the circle for a last-second shot, make certain to get there late and let him get it off clean..Now here comes the important part..Do I have your complete attention? The only way we lose this game, break the hearts of 5,000 Hoosier fans in this hillbilly hole of a stadium…make a half-million Kenlucky and Duke fans ecstatic….and ensure my job remains in serious jeopardy… is for you to make sure to whack William's on the arm after he get's off his clean look at a 3-pointer. You must whack him, Dane. Whack him good. Leave the door open in this lovely 'House of Rupp' and make sure that ref hasn't one ounce hillbilly-guilt for giving Duke a chance to win based on the completely logical foul I instructed you to comitt. Now we all now they love Hoosiers in Lexington, Kenlucky…Go out there these final seconds and make Kenlucky proud. Duke diserves this one. They're the better team that has the better coach that is a best friend of Knight. And give that Kentuckian in a Hoosier shirt..Yes, the guy named Big Bob sitting behind our bench that's been heckling me all night…give him a reason to smile ear to ear. I want to see him so happy we've lost that I can see his entire toothless gumline on my way to the locker room. Let me repeat: Lose Williams. Let Williams get off a clean look…Whack Williams..Gumline of Big Bob. I go coach at UAB. Are we clear?
Fife(thinking to himself): Gumline? UAB? I'm coaching these boys, but this time I'm listening. I like the idea of no solid defense and no sound decision making when the game is on the line. My Michigan Fab Five would have wanted it that way. I'm from the land the Fab Five…Next week I may have the chance to introduce Myles Brand to Kelvin Sampson. If I screw this up just as instructed, Myles will be so impressed how us Hoosier boys coached ourselves to victory over Sampson that he'll offer a head coaching job to Kelvin next year. Sampson will be on the phone all the time so the fine Hoosier recruits that follow our footsteps can also enjoy coaching themselves. It's about time Mike Davis got it right. I'm fouling like I know I shouldn't.
Wow, Fife's Plan, you really thought that out. I'll have to read that a couple more times for the full impact of your devastating sarcasm to fully manifest itself. An impressive set of references there–you got everyone from Coach K to Coach Cellvin. Impressive!
Who is Gunner Kiel?
Thanks. I'm glad you appreciated the condensed version. Though I do believe it still doesn't compete with the 'devastating cynicism' a cold one-liner, a viewpoint unwilling to let an ex-coach, a relatively decent man that represented Indiana with dignity, have a tiny bit of credit for an honest Hoosier win against a #1 team in the nation without defecating on his name.
Honestly? We can't let him have that moment without belching out some ridiculous comment that guys were coaching themselves?
Fife- the poster who calls himself "Big Bog" is a tired old act who comes around the Scoop once in a while only to make sarcastic jabs at anyone not named Knight, using a simplistic, 4 guards-ish tone.
His post #6 was a classic move of sports simplemindedness. If you like a coach, you give him all the credit for the players' performance on the court. If you don't like the coach, you give credit to the previous coach or to "the system" for teaching the players to win in the coach's absence.
I'm sure Big Bob will find a way to credit Bob Knight for every Hoosier win this upcoming season, and blame Crean for every loss.
…oops…. the posted who calls himself "Big Bob" I should say…although "Big Bog" has a nice ring to it…
You hit the nail on the head. It's a very toxic sports town. I think I shared that opinion with you many moons ago. The only thing offering any hope a good cleansing the old stagnant 'bog' is time itself. It's sad to think the only day basketball 'fans' in Bloomington will be 100% behind their school and team (through thick and thin)is when my generation's children are food for worms. Thanks for the kind support.
Clarion, I think you might be on to something with Gunner. Scary thing, I think there is another Kiel ready to take over at Columbus East after Gunner.
Gunner Kiel is the #1 ranked High School QB in the nation. A 5 star player and little brother of current IU QB hopeful Dusty Kiel.
Fife's Plan…I agree, why the need to spit on a very decent man's face? Considering the situation, he gave us a lotmore than we gave him. We should respect that.
Mike P, Could there be a family tree with more QB's hanging in it than the Kiels' lineage is producing?
Gents, no doubt about the decent man moniker for Davis. As a coach he earns an A for the Duke BB game, for the full body of his coaching work at IU he earned a C-. Knowing that was not good enough, he resigned.
I think there has been a Kiel at the helm of East since the 70's. I'm sure there has been gaps, but not many……
Yes, I do believe I have heard or read something of the same. Quite a bloodline.
There are a number of people that are not making the QB position clear [...]
I gleaned nothing confusing. He is simply heightening the bar of comp [...]
Po, I wouldn't be surprised if IU wins more than 7 games this year. [...]
Once again, I'm confused by Wilson's comments about his QBs. Is he pl [...]

Jackknifed semi triggers pile-up
CABOT A tractor-trailer jackknifed on Route 2 in Cabot early Monday, according to police, causing a four-car accident.
State police said the truck, driven by Zuhdija Husic, 42, of Utica, N.Y., was eastbound. Police said Timothy Sweeney, 49, of Northfield, was driving west in an Agency of Transportation truck and tried to avoid hitting Husic but ended up striking the side of his truck.
Nicole Laprade, 41, of Barre, was driving behind Sweeney and had to swerve off the road to avoid colliding with Sweeney or Husic, police said. Bailee Laplant, 19, of Richmond, was driving east and came down the hill unaware of the accident and struck Sweeneys vehicle on the drivers side, police said.
No injuries were reported from the accident. All four vehicles suffered minor to major damage, but all four drivers were wearing their seat belts.MORE IN This Just InBERLIN Free trade talks between the European Union and the United States have failed, Germanys...
