Teen threatens to stab brother over Cheetos | Crime
ATHENS, Ga. -- Police in Athens have arrested a 14-year-old girl for allegedly threatening to stab her brother over a bag of Cheetos.
The unidentified girl Tuesday told police she has "anger issues." Police say the fight broke out when the boy tried getting some of the chips out of the bag. When the girl pushed her brother away it caused the bag to split - spilling the powdered, puffed corn snacks to the floor.
Police say the girl's mother took the knife from her and subdued her until police arrived. She was charged with simple battery and is in the custody of sheriff's deputies.
Last week, Athens police arrested a 14-year-old girl who threatened to light her family's apartment on fire over a missing can of Mountain Dew.

Colonoscopy screening every ten years could prevent 40% of colorectal cancers
A study published in the Sept. 19 New England Journal of Medicine provides some of the clearest evidence to date that colonoscopy has advantages over sigmoidoscopy for the prevention of colorectal cancer.
Researchers followed 88,902 study participants for 22 years and found that 1,815 developed colorectal cancer. Investigators estimated that 40 percent of those cancers could have been prevented if all of the patients in the study had received colonoscopy.
"Thanks to colonoscopy, fewer people than ever before are developing or dying from colorectal cancer," said Anil K. Rustgi, MD, AGAF, president of the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) Institute.
"Gastroenterologists, the specialists who screen for colorectal cancer, are proud of our role in this public health success story," added Ronald J. Vender, MD, FACG, president of the American College of Gastroenterology.
Screening is recommended starting at age 50 for people who are at average risk for colorectal cancer. There are many screening options, including the two used in this study: sigmoidoscopy (every five years), which reaches the lower third of the colon, and colonoscopy (every 10 years), which reaches the entire colon. Read full screening guidelines.
When comparing mortality rates in this study, researchers found that only colonoscopy was associated with reduced death from cancer in the proximal colon—the first part of the colon that physicians can see only via colonoscopy. Promixal colorectal cancer is more common in African Americans than whites1.
"Proximal colorectal cancers are associated with worse survival odds2. Colonoscopy allows gastroenterologists to not only visualize this hard-to-reach area of the body, but to remove pre-cancerous polyps, preventing a deadly disease," said Kenneth K. Wang, MD, FASGE, president of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy.
Of the more than 50,000 people expected to die of colorectal cancer in 2013, screening could have saved more than half of them3.
Researchers with the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, University of Aberdeen (UK), University of Tokyo Hospital and the National Institutes of Health (National Cancer Institute) analyzed information from the Nurses' Health Study and the Health Professionals Follow-up Study, which gather comprehensive health information from participants every two years.

Dietitians to help shoppers with decisions at grocery store
'Shop with a Dietitian' set for Saturday at Verona supermarket
VERONA, Wis. — Just about all the food on grocery store shelves are required to include a nutrition label, but sometimes it takes a little more than just scanning the ingredient list to make the healthiest choice.
The task of loading up the Zak family shopping cart doesn't entirely belong to mom Kimberly Zak.
The path to healthy food is a family affair, with her children, 6-year-old Adam and 4-year-old Kate, taking active roles in making smart food choices.
Kimberly Zak and her two children play a vital role in manning the cart at the grocery store.
"But don't get me wrong, it's a treat to come by myself," Kimberly Zak said. "It's a treat to be able to grocery shop by myself, too. Every once in a while that happens."
But Zak says these family trips to the store serve as moments when everyone learns together and everyone helps each other keep temptations to a minimum.
"Every once in a while, I like an Oreo too," Zak said. "The marketing will pull me in, but for the most part, they know that's a treat and that's not something we have every day."16922788
While making good dietary choices at the store is part of raising health children, Zak said she hopes choices made at the store Tuesday foster even healthier lives down the road.
"It's teaching them what is a healthy choice so that they understand it and when mom and dad aren't there, that they're making that healthy choice," Zak said.
Zak said keeping the children engaged while shopping means giving her children that freedom to make some of those shopping decisions themselves.Dietitians to help shoppers with decisions at grocery store
And for families looking for more tips in the grocery store, Dean Clinic will host Shop with a Dietitian from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Saturday at Miller and Sons Supermarket in Verona. Dietitians will be placed throughout the store and will be available to give people one-on-one advice.

Judging from the winds blowing across the country, this weekend's Final Four should actually be called Kentucky and the two teams fighting to lose to Kentucky on Monday night.
It's hard to argue with that evaluation. This year's tournament has featured 67 teams playing your garden variety college basketball and one team playing something at a higher level. It's not the first time a tournament has played out this way and, contrary to that conventional wisdom, the dominant team doesn't always see it through.
We kick off our look at four things to keep in mind during Saturday's games with a reason why this might not be the year John Calipari breaks through the glass ceiling.
1. It's hard to imagine that the selection committee thought about the possibility of a Louisville-Kentucky matchup, but things worked out awfully well on that front. The air of inevitability around Kentucky feels less stifling right now because they are facing their geographical rivals instead of another team that looks intimidated just being on the same court with the Wildcats. That doesn't mean we love Louisville's chances -- Calipari's latest band of pre-professionals are untouchable in the talent department -- but we'll take our chances with a team playing for a prize beyond a trip in the finals.
2. Here's an early tip for filling out next year's pool: Put the Big East tournament champion deep into the dance. For the second straight year, a middling team from the country's best conference has turned a big run at Madison Square Garden into a trip to the Final Four. Louisville doesn't have a Kemba Walker-sized talent leading them, but they have the confidence of running off eight straight wins against top competion. That might not be enough to beat Kentucky, although we're not counting out another Russ Smith explosion, but it's enough to know you can't write them off.
3. Saturday's most important individual matchup is going to be Kansas point guard Tyshawn Taylor against Ohio State's Aaron Craft. Taylor is crucial to the Jayhawks' attack because he needs to feed their inside players to generate points against the smaller Buckeyes. He's certainly capable of doing that, but he's also capable of self-destructing under an avalanche of turnovers, which brings us to Craft. He's got an uncanny knack of creating them: He forced 10 against Cincinnati in the Sweet 16, and if he takes Taylor out of the game then the Jayhawks are sure to follow.
4. If you've watched the tournament thus far, you've probably noticed one theme connecting everything that's happened to this point. Defense wins. The most efficient defensive teams advanced from all four regions and that leads us to believe that offense is going to be the deciding factor in the Final Four.
Stay with us here.
Since all of these teams can defend the basket at a very high level, the winners are going to be the ones with the offenses that can adapt most readily to the circumstances. That's bad news for Louisville, which has the best defense by a slim margin and the worst offense by a wide margin, and good news for the deep, versatile Wildcats.
The other matchup is harder to figure. Kansas and Ohio State are fairly well matched on both ends of the court. They are even close in statistics like most points after time outs, a key stat in games as broken up with pauses for commercials as these. Ohio State's just a little bit better at everything, though, and that should be enough to steer them through.

Autism spectrum disorder affects roughly four to five times as many males as females, and scientists are starting to understand why. It turns out that, from a genetic viewpoint, men may indeed be the weaker sex.
Researchers led by Sébastien Jacquemont of the University Hospital of Lausanne found evidence for what they call a "female protective model" when it comes to genetically-based neurological disorders, including ASD, intellectual disability, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Their key finding was that females with these diagnoses had significantly more genetic abnormalities than similar males. This suggests that the female brain is more robust in some ways than the male brain, at least in terms of resisting these symptoms. Their work also tends to counteract the "social bias" hypothesis that boys are more likely than girls to be diagnosed with ASD because doctors are more likely to look for it in males.
Remembering high school genetics, one might think that the added robustness comes from the fact that females have two copies of the X chromosome, while males only have one. This is certainly true for a mental disability called Fragile X syndrome, in which the body is unable to make a key protein. Fragile X syndrome is more prevalent in males because the females have a "back-up" X chromosome. If that one is normal, they can make the required protein.
However, we now know that genes that relate to mental development show up across the genome. In fact, the Swiss researchers created a list of 1,560 candidate genes that may play a role in neurological disorders (NDs), though they acknowledge the list "included genes that might have been falsely associated in the literature with a particular ND." While many of these are still something of a mystery, that tabulation demonstrates the impressive growth in our understanding of the genetic basis of neurological disease.
There are also epigenetic factors at play here. Epigenetics refers to changes in the genome that do not alter the underlying gene sequence, but can still have profound effects on how genes work. The actual changes usually involve chemical alterations to DNA (such as the addition of a methyl group). These can alter how a gene interacts with the machinery in the nucleus of the cell, effectively turning genes on and off. Environmental and other factors can play a role in causing epigenetic changes.
At the recent annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), an entire session was devoted to the epigenetic factors affecting the human brain and behaviour. Dr. Schahram Akbarian of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai presented "emerging findings on epigenetic dysregulation in the brains of subjects diagnosed with autism or schizophrenia." His work indicates that "a subset of autistic individuals are affected by loss or excess" of a particular feature called H3K4me3 at hundreds of places on the genome.
The implications of findings like this are that we may see the day when personalized therapies can be crafted to help combat particular neurological disorders in specific patients. In an article with colleagues, Akbarian suggests this may well happen: "Identification of the precise combinations of these aberrantly regulated gene sets in a particular disease case, including a potential association with the severity of specific disease symptoms, can bear great promise toward better understanding of the underlying neurobiology and, perhaps more importantly, could set the foundation for novel therapies specifically tailored toward individual patients."
Another panel at the AAAS meeting focused on how something we do every day, eating, affects our brains. Researcher Elaine Y. Hsiao of the California Institute of Technology tackled "Gut-Brain-Immune Connections in Autism and Schizophrenia." Her research provides some intriguing insights into how neurological disorders are caused, and may be treated.
In a paper published recently in Cell, Hsiao and other researchers describe how they caused autism-like symptoms in mice by injecting them with a virus-like molecule. Then, with the use of probiotics containing Bacteroides Fragilis, they were able to repair the barrier function of the gut, and also reduce the behavioural symptoms.
Of course, this is still in a mouse model, but these researchers make a fairly heady claim: "We propose the transformative concept that autism, and likely other behavioural conditions, are potentially diseases involving the gut that ultimately impact the immune, metabolic, and nervous systems, and that microbiome-mediated therapies may be a safe and effective treatment for these neurodevelopmental disorders."
While it's still early days for all of this work, this research opens up intriguing possibilities for the study and treatment of neurological disorders, and the future of personalized medicine. It also reminds us that, in some subtle ways, we are what eat.

Medicine mess: Figuring the calculus of insurance plans
Math has always been a favorite subject of mine. Go figure, I'm Asian! However, in my teeny-tiny hometown in Ohio, we were lucky if we had an abacus or a protractor. Okay, it wasn't that bad, but when I asked my math teachers to teach us pre-calculus, their response was, "You aren't Isaac Newton. When are you ever going to use calculus?"
"Umm– like when I go to college?"
So on the first day of Calculus 101 my freshman year, I thought I was going to have a heart attack when the professor went over the syllabus. I was divided in emotions, multiplied in confusion— in addition to feeling I was rather obtuse.
Should I have known prescription drug plans would be more complex than calculus?
You do the math. Where I now live, there are probably 30 more insurance plans than were available in Charlottesville. This place is HMO'd out the wazoo. I've become HMO-phobic! (Get the joke?)
It almost seems there are managed plans within the managed plans. To top things off, many people here don't have a plain old-fashioned Medicare plan. They have private insurances to manage their Medicare, and if you add Medicaid on top of that, the complexities of prescription drug plans increase exponentially.
If you have a prescription plan, you're charged a certain amount for each medicine. The "deal" your insurance company made with the medicine maker will determine what's covered: everything, a little bit, maybe not so much, very little, and you-owe-us-your-first-born!
In general, generic medications cost the patient under $10 for a month's supply, though some plans will give it to you for "free."(I put "free" in quotation marks, because really nothing is free. They might just jack up your premium next year.)
I'm always amazed to see how certain plans will not cover a generic medicine that dates back to Abe Lincoln, because they don't have "a deal" with the medicine maker. Once I was asked to fill out a pre-authorization form that was 100 pages long– and I was going to do it until I saw the medicine cost only $5.55. (WIth pre-authorization, it would drop to $3.)
Do you think a doctor should spend time taking care of a patient with shortness of breath, chest pains, arthritis aches, and severe diarrhea, or be pushed around by insurance companies to jump through hoops like this?
One prominent brand-name medicine became generic about two years ago. To this day, some prescription plans will cover this generic medicine at dirt-cheap prices while other plans will make the patient pay beaucoup bucks.
Why should a cheap medicine cost so much under one plan but not under another? It must depend on which pharmacy plan administrator plays golf with which medicine maker. Unfortunately, that leaves a lot of patients in the rough.
I still have little idea which plans cover what medicines because there are too many plans and too many medications to remember. Plus, it seems the plans change every six months.
I had to get pre-authorization for a cholesterol-lowering medicine at the end of February, and it was rejected twice. Literally one day later– on March 1– I got a letter saying the prescription formula had changed, and now the medicine was available without pre-authorization!
Wouldn't it be nice if doctors could take care of patients– actually spend time to talk to patients and think about what's best for them– instead of having to justify everything to insurance companies while sick patients wait in line.
(By the way, I got an A+ in calculus!)

Hello Everyone! My first post here.
I have problem with installation Debian Stretch testing on motherboard Asus Maximus IX Hero Z270 with 2 * Samsung 960 Pro in Raid0 where installation process can't see Raid volume. I tried to add ' dmraid=true ' option but it didn't help. However I'm not sure if it was needed.
If I change in UEFI Bios in Boot menu -> Launch CSM (Compatibility Support Module) to Enable then in Advanced menu -> the Intel (R) Raid Storage Technology menu disappears (in Intel RST I can create Raid Volume). However this time I can see two separated Samsung 960 Pros during installation process.
Anyone has any idea?
Thanks in advance.

E:60 Offers A Taste Of Untold NASCAR Stories
The ESPN news magazine E:60 has once again ventured into NASCAR. This time, the outcome was much better than the previous visit. Reporter Lisa Salters is an ESPN veteran and she delivered a compelling feature on GM Program Manager Alba Colon.
Handling Chevy's NASCAR teams in the Sprint Cup Series, Colon is front-and-center as GM's senior representative at the racetracks. This native of Puerto Rico told her heart-warming story of hard work and dedication. It contained soundbites from Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon who spoke about her years of service to the company.
What really got the attention of viewers was an interview with Tony Stewart. Now, almost done with his one year of driving a Toyota, Stewart said his personal relationship with Colon was one of the factors bringing him back to Chevrolet. Stewart related that he felt he had let Colon down by leaving Chevy and he was most happy to be returning in 2009.
While Salters did address the recent harassment suit against NASCAR, Colon was defiant in the fact that she has made her way in the world on her own terms and would never stand for such behavior. In her own way, she quietly suggested that things are getting much better in this male-dominated sport.
Salter's piece was just a story in a program with several others. That is the letdown for NASCAR fans. Over the last two years, long-form TV programming based on the hundreds of colorful personalities in the sport has come to a grinding halt.
NASCAR Confidential on SPEED has six one-hour episodes spread over twelve months. Dale Earnhardt Jr. bought his way onto ESPN for five episodes of Shifting Gears. In one of them, he apologized for having so many commercials. He said that is what it took to get on ESPN.
A while back, SPEED aired a pilot called The Humpy Show. More episodes of that program were never produced. TNT does not air any NASCAR programming outside of their six races. The Fox Broadcast Network has no time in prime-time for any NASCAR unless cars are on the track.
In the summer of 2007, ABC aired NASCAR in Primetime. It was five episodes of a look behind-the-scenes at several teams and drivers. Since the show was post-produced, the footage was old and the interest was low. It did not return for 2008.
This is a truly amazing situation. It is almost a Mexican stand-off. In Charlotte sits the NASCAR Media Group ready to format and produce any type of long-form program or provide technical support for a production company to do the same. The phone does not ring and there is a good reason why.
NASCAR's TV partners have no obligation to carry any sort of long-form post-produced programming. They simply don't have to do it.
We know that both ESPN and ESPN2 are chocked-full of other programming. TNT is an entertainment channel with limited sports and no interest. SPEED has made a decision to invest in "lifestyle" program series that have nothing to do with motorsports. That list is seemingly endless.
The true irony of Salter's story is that it was never told before. Colon has been in the garage and on pit road for years. Her story, and the stories of the many other interesting and unique people associated with this sport will continue to be ignored until one of NASCAR's TV partners gets pro-active and takes a risk.

JD, being a fan of puns, did you mean to use the Mexican Standoff phrase on purpose regarding the Colon story...Puerto Rico, Spanish...Mexico, Spanish. :)
Anyway, I thought this was an EXCELLENT piece (but needed to be longer!!) To be honest, my tv was on MUTE in my small protest against ESPN but DID want to see the story on this woman. So was multi=tasking until the segment came on. I must say, I never heard of her before a couple days ago but loved the soundbites of today's drivers and the interview with this short woman with a huge spirit.
HOWEVER, the skeptical wench in me wondered about the TIMING of this story in lieu of the lawsuit. Nevertheless, it was a great story...but like I said, I wish the segment could've been longer..would've loved to have heard more about her childhood.
Indeed, why don't we hear more stories like this? Darn shame.
I would've enjoyed a longer interview with the subject.
It would be nice to see this kind of thing featured on a Real deal segment with Wendy sometime.
The taste left me wanting more about this woman's story..and all the other's that go untold.
I am tired of the bad stories making the news these days. :(

No connection on the terms. Just wish this could have been a thirty minute show. Don't you wonder how many other fascinating people there are that TV viewers have never seen?

Yes! As one relatively new to NASCAR, and who puts up with all my friends rolling their eyes that I have even gotten possessed with this "Redneck sport", ...yes, I wish more of these behind the scenes stories would get shared and NOTICED.
She is the most powerful woman in NASCAR, a great engineer, and as much as I read in books and online, never heard of this woman?
Yet anybody with something negative to say or somebody does something bad, and it's yapped about for days or weeks.
This is the kind of story that could help endear folks to the sport of NASCAR..that it's not just an "old boys sport."
Well, even though it kind of is..and the rules, well, can't explain those either, lol.
But yea, this should've been a 30 minute segment for sure.
I enjoyed Alba's demeanor. Hope somebody else picks up on her story this season.
And others like her.

Only watched the Grant story on E:60 last time and not the rest of the show. This time, I really enjoyed the Barack Obama/Reggie Love segment, the small tidbit at the end with Tiger Woods and, of course, Alba Colon's NASCAR story. Was it Jimmie Johnson who said she cracks the whip when she has to? She's certainly very well-respected by everyone in the garage and especially Tony Stewart. I didn't agree with her, however, in why HMS is not winning that much this year. They were behind in their COT program? I don't think so. Everybody else has just caught up. Enjoyed the show.

I enjoyed the segment :). I agree it's a shame that these fascinating stories are not told. It really should have been longer.
I loved the segments BP use to do with some of the folks "back at the shop" and some of the OTW members.

Thanks JD for the review of this program. I was really looking forward to seeing it; however, Fay decided that I didn't need my cable for a portion of last evening.
As a female without much tall to her credit, I noticed Ms. Colon at a race and found out who she was. I had the pleasure of meeting her at another race and that was a very nice experience.

Wouldn't she have been fantastic as a person featured in a "NASCAR Confidential" episode?

Absolutely! My impression was a very professional woman with a great sense of humor. Really sorry that I had to miss the program.

The show "7 Days" on Speed a couple of years ago was very well done, and did showcase a week in the life of people associated with NASCAR. It's a shame that this show isn't still on the air.
I also was a fan of "NASCAR Drivers: 360" that was on FX. Although it only followed drivers, it still gave the viewers a behind-the-scenes look at their personal lives.
There are so many interesting stories in the garages. It would be great if these stories were told.

I thought it was a well done piece, though I was already familiar with her. I realize it's a TV blog, which is good because we need more of this (and Lisa is a pro). But I read an article about Colon a while back. So I do think the print press sometimes does a better job at finding these stories than TV does. Maybe they have more time and 'space' for it. And they don't have as much pressure for 'ratings' although readership is obviously measured. That is my question about these features--if there is such a big audience that would give SPEED or ESPN or whoever kickbutt ratings, why aren't they showing it? Or is it just the reality that we're a small audience? It can't be just because 'they don't have to.' If there was money to be made, they'd want it. I do believe you could *grow* such numbers though, with a little patience.
As far as E60 goes, I also saw the one with Randy Moss (not sure if JD had mentioned it or not). I thought it was a fluff piece that didn't focus in any way at his controversial behavior, which should have at least been mentioned, because it's relevant to how he's going to behave as an owner. Also, it didn't go into much about how he's going to balance his careers. Anyways, that same episode had a *way* more fascinating piece about 'eventing' (equestrian competitions.) Off topic, I realize, but it was very informative, if not just a bit slanted. But since we're talking about the program, you can see it has a lot of potential, and at least if some of the stories are racing, that's good.

I liked the segment but it never really told how she helped them out. It was about how she got there and who she knew. Would of liked to see her more hands on as to what she does...

Really enjoyed the show, she definately would be a great Nascar Confidental subject. Nice to see a powerful women in Nascar who is there because of her brain and personality.

Microsoft has released a preview of its upcoming Internet Explorer 7.0 web browser. IE7 beta 2 contains new features such as tabbed browsing, functions that make it easier to subscribe to RSS feeds, and a revamped interface with a streamlined toolbar, as explained in an animated tour here.
The 11.2MB download also comes with technology designed to alert users if they stray onto fraudulent phishing websites.
Redmond is soliciting feedback on the software, in particular it wants system admins to test access to their sites using the new browser. Early reaction has been mixed with both praise and gripes emerging from trialists.
IE7 beta 2 is only available as a download for Windows XP SP2 users. First impressions are that Microsoft has added features in its browser to match those already available to either Firefox or Opera users, for example, the introduction of tabbed browsing.
Users can make up their own minds by downloading the software themselves. ®

One of our wonderful sponsors has this cool new video advertising the Supernova Airstream light. Great for bars or helmets.
I should be sporting one for Schlaflos im Sattel this year too. Currently, I have a dyno powered E3 (off road model) light and absolutely love the ease of use and the fact that I NEVER have to worry about batteries running out.

Email: email@example.com
If you would like to hire a Central Washington University Student, please do the following:
PLEASE NOTE: This form is for advertising jobs that you have available to all students, and it CANNOT be used to hire students through the Work Study program. Please see "Off Campus Work-Study Employers" section below if you are interested in hiring CWU students through Work Study.
Student Employment/Financial Aid offers a courtesy posting service to off campus employers that is free to both employers and students. You are welcome to use the posting service for your employment recruiting needs as often as you wish. Please follow up with us when you want the posting removed. We have to collect statistical information for program purposes, consisting of the 1) number of CWU students hired (we do not need names or to identify the students) 2) average number of hours you estimate they will work (either per week, or a total number for the project), 3) their wage rate, and 4) a general estimate of how long you intend to employ them. We must collect these statistics for program purposes and report an aggregate lump total estimate of all student earnings at the year end. If you are unsure, then please just offer your best guess. Please help us to continue to offer the program by providing the information when you want us to remove the listing for you. Thank you! We appreciate your interest in hiring CWU students!
Central Washington University Student Employment resources are provided free of charge to employers and to student job seekers. All hiring and compensation for work performed by student employees is handled directly between the student and the employer. The Student Employment Office does not perform background checks on students applying for jobs, nor on employers posting job opportunities. Employers and students are encouraged to request reference information from each other as needed to establish qualifications, credentials and overall fit between the employer and the student applicant.
All job listings are posted at the discretion of the Student Employment/Financial Aid Office. Central Washington University Student Employment/Financial Aid will not post jobs that appear to discriminate against applicants on the basis of race, color, religion, creed, age, national origin, disabled or Vietnam Era veteran status, sexual orientation, disability, or gender. All jobs posted must pay at least the current minimum hourly wage in the state in which the work is to be performed. We do not post jobs that require an initial monetary investment from the student, or jobs posted by a third party. The Student Employment/Financial Aid Office also reserves the right to refuse to post jobs that in our judgment do not appear to support the interests of the University.
The Central Washington University Student Employment/Financial Aid Office acts only as a free-of-charge job posting service and makes no particular recommendations regarding employers. We make no representations or guarantees about positions posted by this office. We are not responsible for safety, wages, working conditions, or any other aspect of off-campus employment. We do not research the integrity of each organization or individual person who lists a job with us. Therefore, you are urged to perform due diligence when offering, applying for, or accepting private off-campus employment, as you are doing so completely at your own risk. Some general advice: Beware of apparent job postings or "opportunities" you may see on websites, bulletin boards, and other locations that seem too good to be true, especially if it requires an initial "registration fee" or "initial investment" to be considered, and NEVER wire money to someone for an upfront fee. Check with the Better Business Bureau and the Attorney General's office in the state where the business or employer is located for more information. Just as you must be alert for email phishing scams and other dangers on the internet, you must also be aware of employment scams that prey on the unwary. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! If you have been scammed, contact the WA State Attorney General's office to report it.

Work Truck Tire
If you truck does work but also sees dirt, then you may be in the market for the new Dick Cepek Mud Countrys, now in load range E. We picture these tires on a 3⁄4- or 1-ton ranch truck that doesn't see street use too much. Something splattered with dirt, with tools behind the seat and a dog riding in the bed. The tires are rough and tough, and although we mounted them on fancy Dick Cepek wheels, we think they belong on steel rims to really fit the picture in our head.
A lot of heavy-duty truck buyers have been looking for a tire with a high load range that still works off-road and is available in a taller size. We often tow with our truck and haul all types of heavy junk home that we don't really need ("Wow, a 351 GMC V-6 engine! I need that."). Plus, many of these trucks have received a leveling kit or similar, making them clear a 35-inch-tall tire with ease. Dick Cepek recognized that demand and brought forth its new E-rated Mud Country. We bolted them on our heavy-hauling truck and went to work.
Make & Model: Dick Cepek Mud Country
Size tested: 35X12.50R17
Type: Radial
Load Range: E
Maximum load (lb): 3,195 @ 65 psi
Tread: 1 nylon ply, 2 steel, 3 polyester

Approved Rim Width (in): 81⁄2-11

No, this theme does not require any coding experience thanks to our exclusive settings area and the built in WordPress functionality. You will only need some HTML/CSS experience if you plan to change the colors or design of the theme, everything else can be done from inside your WordPress admin panel.
How does the WHMCS template/sync work?
WordPress and WHMCS would be installed in separate directories on your same domain/web hosting account. WHMCS then connects with WordPress using our exclusive WHMCS module and the template is developed in a way that it automatically updates based on your edits to the WordPress Theme. So it will automatically sync with your menus/pages/widgets. The only thing it won't sync is plugins but you can still use supported (about 80% should work fine) ones on the WordPress side.
Is this themes only suitable for web hosting companies?
No, while this theme comes with web hosting related content it is fully customizable so can be used for any type of business.
If I use this theme for a web hosting business do I need WHMCS?
We do recommend using WHMCS for your web hosting business as it allows you to automate billing/account provisioning. However, you could use just the WordPress Theme along with any payment gateway that allows you to generate order buttons/links (PayPal for example)
Will this theme work with any hosting provider?
Yes, this theme will work with any hosting provider that supports Wordpress/WHMCS. Note that if you plan to resell web hosting you'll need a web hosting reseller account.

Yes, we include the PSD files in the correct size of each element this includes the banners on the homepage etc.

This training is intended for Pennsylvania teachers of students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing K-12. Other educators who would benefit from this training are Educational Interpreters, and Speech-Language Pathologists working with children whose teachers are also using visual Phonics.
See the Sound/Visual Phonics is a multi-sensory approach to teaching reading, language, and writing skills. It is a system which associates each sound in our language with a hand signal and graphic symbol. See the Sound/Visual Phonics links speech sounds to our other senses in a natural progression. The mouth movements for each phoneme are then mirrored in a hand gesture. The gesture in turn is reflected in a written symbol. See the Sound/Visual Phonics fixes the movements, which triggers better memory. It has been used successfully with students who are deaf or hard of hearing as well as students with learning disabilities, speech and language problems.
Target Audience
Pennsylvania teachers of students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing K-12, Educational Interpreters, and Speech-Language Pathologists

Wynn's win? Success surprises city songstress
Unless you plan to join the celestial choir, a Winchester church may not be the best place for your musical debut. But that's where Robin Wynn, up and coming acoustic rocker, sang her first notes.
Now she finds herself, without any real past musical background besides "a John Denver album," in the semi-finals of a contest sponsored by Mountain Stage, the radio program credited with boosting the careers of Ani DiFranco, the Barenaked Ladies, and Ryan Adams.
Wynn says her song "Broken Sky" is about "being in a relationship but feeling alone and wanting to wake the other person up."
"Everyone is touched by it," says her label spokesman, Steve Momorella.
On Wednesday, May 18, after The Hook goes to press, Wynn travels to Bethesda, Maryland, to perform the song in the fourth annual Mountain Stage NewSong contest.
She says it was not until moving to Charlottesville in 1998 that she began to seriously pursue music. With a full time job in social services and a young child to raise, Wynn took three guitar lessons and then taught herself enough to enable her to begin writing her own songs.
She credits the Charlottesville community with encouraging her to stick with music, noting that "There are so many people to play with." She has performed at such venues as Starr Hill and the Gravity Lounge.
Wynn, who turns 30 on Saturday, works with her fiancé, musician Mark Goldstein, producer of OneTrueVibe Records, an independent label in Charlottesville that produced Robin's first CD, Oblivion.
The couple met while performing at Baja Bean in 1999. Wynn performs solo, as a duo with Goldstein, or accompanied by a five-piece band.
OneTrueVibe will release an EP at the end of July featuring "Broken Sky," with plans for a second CD to be released in December.
Mountain Stage, located in Shepherdstown, West Virginia, has showcased performers such as Allison Krauss and Lyle Lovett. According to a release, the final round of the contest will be broadcast on more than 200 radio and TV stations worldwide.
Wynn currently works full time in social services, but she'll leave that job June 20 to play her music full time. Success on May 18 could mean qualifying for NewSong regional finals and potentially the national finals in late August.
The recent successes are hard for even Wynn to acknowledge. She didn't realize she was accepted into the semi-final round until she got an email from a fellow musician listing the winners.
Reading her name, Wynn says she wondered, "Is there another Robin Wynn in Charlottesville?"

Success surprised even her

The American Sociological Association (ASA) filed an amicus curiae brief yesterday with the Supreme Court of the United States in the same-sex marriage cases currently pending before the court. The ASA's brief highlights the social science consensus that children raised by same-sex parents fare just as well as children raised by different-sex parents.
Children of undocumented Mexican immigrants have a significantly higher risk of behavior problems than their co-ethnic counterparts with documented or naturalized citizen mothers, according to a new study.
The difficulties come in two forms: sadness or social withdrawal — what the authors refer to as internalizing behavior problems — and issues such as aggressiveness towards others — which the authors call externalizing behavior problems.
Social scientists have long argued documentary films are powerful tools for social change.
But a University of Iowa (UI) sociologist and his co-researchers are the first to use the Internet and social media to systematically show how a documentary film reshaped public perception and ultimately led to municipal bans on hydraulic fracking.
With the Supreme Court of the United States expected to rule imminently in the case of Obergefell v. Hodges, which addresses the matter of marriage equality and the constitutional status of state bans on same-sex marriage, the American Sociological Association (ASA) has a number of sociologists available to discuss same-sex marriage.
Do police treat religious-based protest events differently than secular ones? Drawing on data from more than 15,000 protest events in the United States (1960 to 1995) and using quantitative methods, we find that law enforcement agents were less likely to show up at protests when general religious actors, actions, or organizations were present. Rather than reflecting privileged legitimacy, we find that this protective effect is explained by religious protesters' use of less threatening tactics at events.
Lawyers keep the gates of public justice institutions, particularly through their roles in formal procedures like hearings and trials. Yet, it is not clear what lawyers do in such quintessentially legal settings: conclusions from past research are bedeviled by a lack of clear theory and inconsistencies in research design. Conceptualizing litigation work in terms of professional expertise, I conduct a theoretically grounded synthesis of the findings of extant studies of lawyers' impact on civil case outcomes.
Recent scholarship highlights the importance of public discourse for the mobilization and impact of social movements, but it neglects how cultural products may shift discourse and thereby influence mobilization and political outcomes. This study investigates how activism against hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") utilized cultural artifacts to influence public perceptions and effect change. A systematic analysis of Internet search data, social media postings, and newspaper articles allows us to identify how the documentary Gasland reshaped public discourse.
The article focuses on the relationship between street vendors and local authorities in Bangkok. We examine the goals, the means, and the effects of everyday regulation of street vending. We document how the district administration produces and maintains informality by creating a parallel set of rules where street vendors enjoy negligible rents and little competition. We provide detailed empirical evidence on earnings, rents, fines, and rules regarding commercial real estate.
The article discusses alternative wedding ceremonies staged in urban spaces as a statement of protest among immigrant couples that cannot marry in rabbinical courts, because they are not recognized as Jews. These public weddings are organized and sponsored by the Fishka association of young Israeli adults of Russian origin.
Although research has established a very strong relationship between the presence of a psychiatric disorder and victimization in prisons, some gaps remain in our understanding. This study considers the importance of gender differences in this relationship. Estimates based on the 2004 Survey of Inmates in State and Federal Correctional Facilities show that psychiatric disorders have a stronger relationship with victimization among male inmates than among female inmates. Yet the size of the gender difference varies greatly depending on the specific disorder.

LSU ranked second in AP behind USC
Advocate wire and staff report
Published: Aug 19, 2007
NEW YORK — After a season of chasing, Southern California is again the team being chased.
And for now, the LSU Tigers are the team in best position to do the chasing.
For the third time in the past four years, USC begins the college football season No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25.
Southern California received 62 of 65 first-place votes and 1,622 points from a panel of media members. USC easily outdistanced No. 2 LSU in the poll released Saturday.
LSU received two first-place votes and 1,511 points. They haven't started a season ranked this high since 1959, when they were preseason No. 1.
The Tigers finished last season ranked No. 3 in the AP poll after beating Notre Dame, 41-14, in the Allstate Sugar Bowl.
LSU coach Les Miles didn't put much stock in the rankings.
"I think what they do," Miles said, "is they take everything into consideration and make their best guess, and their best guess can be off 10 spots. You don't really know how close or how far away you are from where they're picking you, but we've got a lot of work to do, and I can tell you that we'll be setting out to take care of that.
"We're not looking at where we're ranked, and certainly nobody on our staff talks about it."
Southern Cal coach Pete Carroll is happy to be at the top.
"It's exactly where we hope and expect to be," Carroll said. "It's a symbol of what we're all about."
No. 3 West Virginia received the other first-place vote. The Mountaineers have never been ranked higher in the preseason. No. 4 Texas and Michigan round out the top five, and defending champion Florida is sixth.
Much of the Trojans' time at No. 1 has been since late in 2003, when they took the top spot at the end of the regular season and finished No. 1 the AP poll — despite being left out of the BCS national championnship game. LSU won the BCS title game and finished No. 1 in the coaches' poll.
The next season USC became the second team, joining Florida State in 1999, to be No. 1 all the way and was the undisputed national champ after winning the BCS title game.
The next season, USC nearly pulled the wire-to-wire trick again, but Vince Young and Texas relegated the Trojans to No. 2 in the end by winning a 41-38 thriller in the Rose Bowl.
Last season, USC was in the top 10 all season, but never did get to No. 1. The Trojans were No. 2 going into the final week of the regular season, but with a chance to play for another national title they lost 13-9 to UCLA.
USC bounced back with a resounding 32-18 victory over Michigan in the Rose Bowl and that set the stage for the Trojans to start this season as an overwhelming No. 1.
USC has been the country's top program since 2002, going 59-6 with one BCS national championships, an No. 1 finish in the AP poll and one near-miss. This season, the Trojans expect to walk away from the BCS national championship game in New Orleans with the crystal football.
"That's what we're here for. We're here to do it better than anybody has ever done it before," Carroll said. "That's the single thought. That's what drives us. If that's the case, you want to be No. 1 forever."
For the Trojans, this is the 82nd time they've been No. 1 in the poll. Only Notre Dame (95), Oklahoma (95) and Ohio State [88] have more.
The rest of the top 10 has Wisconsin at No. 7, followed by Oklahoma, Virginia Tech and Louisville.
Ohio State, last year's preseason No. 1 and the loser of the national title game to Florida, is No. 11 to start the 2007 season. No. 12 is California, followed by Georgia, UCLA and Tennessee.
No. 16 Rutgers is ranked in the preseason for the first time, as is No. 23 Hawaii.
Penn State is No. 17 and Auburn, Florida State and Nebraska round out the top 20. Arkansas, TCU, Hawaii, Boise State and Texas A&M are the final five.
The Southeastern Conference has six ranked teams, most of any league. The Big Ten and Big 12 are next with four and the Pac-10 and Big East have three each.
The Trojans are preseason No. 1 for the sixth time overall, tying Nebraska for third most. Only Oklahoma (nine) and Ohio State (seven) have been top-ranked in the preseason by AP more often.
These Trojans have another star quarterback in John David Booty, who could become the third USC passer to win the Heisman Trophy in the past six seasons, joining predecessors Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart.
"He's a natural-born quarterback," Carroll said. "He's got five years of experience. He's been through everything you need to be good."
Booty should have plenty of options, with about a half-dozen high school all-American running backs on the roster and a slew fast and talented receivers. But it's the defense that makes this USC team special.
The Trojans have potential All-Americans all over the field, and perhaps the nation's best linebackers in Brian Cushing, Keith Rivers and Rey Maualuga.
"They're big and fast and smart and they know what they're doing and they love to play the game," Carroll said.
Up front, defensive end Lawrence Jackson and tackle Sedrick Ellis are the stars. In the secondary, Terrell Thomas is a lock-down cornerback and sophomore Taylor Mays has drawn comparisons to such great USC safeties of the past as Dennis Smith and Troy Polamalu.
How good can this defense be? Just ask Michigan, which had its vaunted offense smothered in Pasadena, Calif., on Jan. 1.
"We have a lot of experience and tremendous speed," Carroll said. "We'll find out how good they are when we start playing."
If USC is as good as most believe, chasing down the Trojans could be too much to ask.

One Direction Write + Record Brand New Songs
One Direction's fourth album is just around the corner and we're finally getting a few signs of what's to come!
Three songs have been newly listed as recorded by One Direction on ASCAP, meaning the band hit the studio for these songs and, somewhere in the world, they exist with the guys' vocals. Cue our excited screaming. (Note: ASCAP is a copyright organization for songwriters, publishers and performers.)
The first is a song called 'Blame It All On You,' and though we know nothing about it aside from the title, we're going to hazard a guess that this is an angry breakup song. Or maybe a love song, as in blaming it all on you for making me fall in love. There are so many possibilities, and we would be happy to discuss them all day.
Next up is 'Want You to Be There.' Not only does the song title sound super sweet, but — wait for it — Harry helped write it! He's been on a writing rampage lately, penning lyrics with the likes of Kodaline, OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder and 1D, of course.
Last but definitely not least is 'Whatever She Wants,' and this is automatically our favorite because ASCAP lists Niall, Zayn, Liam, Louis and Harry as writers. Any song written by all five guys has got to be amazing!
Of course, there's no official word on what these songs are for. They could be a part of the band's upcoming album, set for release later this year, or they might not make the cut. But we'll hope for the best, because we're dying to hear these new songs!

What are NYC's Most Overrated Restaurants?
Last week we asked you to share your thoughts on the city's most underrated restaurants. But doing so just begs the question: which restaurants do you think are the city's most overrated?
There's a few ways a restaurant can be overrated. It might actually be bad, completely undeserving of its hype. But we find that most overrated restaurants are totally fine except for their breathless praise and endless attention, for a dish, a chef, or a cuisine that's celebrated for its own sake regardless of its actual quality.
What do you think makes an overrated restaurant, and what do you think are the worst culprits in the city? Let us know in the comments.
