Notre Dame took care of business Saturday night in Los Angeles, beating rival Southern California 22-13, cementing their place in the Discover BCS National Championship Game.
The Irish will all but definitely play the winner of the SEC title game between Alabama and Georgia. Despite Florida's win over Florida State, and their impressive record against the BCS top-12, they find themselves on the outside looking in.
The Gators can however sneak into the AllState Sugar Bowl if they surpass the loser of the Georgia-Alabama game in the final BCS standings.
"Obviously, would we want to play in the BCS National Championship Game, absolutely," Gators head coach Will Muschamp said Saturday after the win over Florida State. "But we've had a fantastic year. We have no one to blame but ourselves for not getting it done in Jacksonville."

Taxpayers may notice a few changes when filing their taxes. One is the earned income tax credit, which is an important tax deduction for parents. The income limit has gone up and the size of the credit has increased. The IRS made the change to eliminate any confusion about who was eligible. And taxpayers will have to provide extra documentation in order to claim qualifying children. "Examples of things they can bring in would be a copy of a document from the children's school or a child care provider that shows that child's name and address both on the same document. Another thing they could do is bring in guardianship papers, divorce papers, or any legal document that shows they're eligible to claim that qualifying child," says Kathy Schneider, Liberty Tax Service.The medical expense deduction has also changed for those under the age of 65. "Previously, it was 7.5 percent of the adjusted gross income. And any expenses that were above that, you would be able to claim on schedule A as an itemized deduction. That has changed to 10 percent of the adjusted gross income," says Schneider. The IRS won't begin processing tax returns until January 31st.But some are filing early. "Mostly to get it out of the way. Usually by the time the end of April comes, everybody's so busy. So, it's just good to get it done early," says Marilyn Zins.But it's not just about getting it out the way. Early filing may help protect you from income tax fraud. "You're getting in ahead of time, completing your return. It reduces the possibility of someone stealing your information and filing ahead of you and causing some problems," says Schneider.It's also important to protect personal information, such as your social security number, and check your credit score periodically.

The balancing act between the city and the homeless took another step tonight. Tucson Police removed some of the items that people were keeping along Veinte de Agosto Park downtown.
Police did not go there to remove the people sleeping on the sidewalk. The effort focused on cutting down on some of the stuff they were keeping. The reduction aimed to prevent items from spilling either over the black boundary line into the park, or out into the sidewalk.
Cooperation between about 25 homeless and 15 police officers led to the removal of bikes,excess bags, and other things that people there were keeping. Police said that only two arrests were made Friday night, and those were cited and released. One arrest was for obstructing the sidewalk. The other arrest was for remaining in the park after it closed. Those on the sidewalk along the park could still have a sleeping bag, non-alcoholic drink,and a backpack.
While there has been cooperation between the city and those living along the park,John Cooper, Jr., executive organizer for Occupy Public Land, said that the ordinance remains too vague because it only calls for the sidewalk to not be obstructed, and does not regulate what people on the sidewalk can have.
"There 'snot statute that says you can't have property on the sidewalk. There's a general statute, or general applicability that says you can't block a sidewalk. But it doesn't say what you can or can't have, and, so I asked the government to clarify that, they still really haven't, they're making the cops do that," Cooper said.
"Well,the city has this ordinance that says you cannot obstruct a sidewalk at all, with any property at all. We're giving them a little bit. We're allowing them the bed roll, something to drink that's not alcoholic, and a backpack,"said Tucson Police Ca pt. Jim Webb.
The items that were removed can be reclaimed by the people later.

What no new debt ceiling could mean to you
Here's what may happen if Congress doesn't raise the federal government's debt limit by Aug. 2. It won't be pretty.
Who was it who said, "Can't we all get along?" If only politicians would listen to that.
If you think a failure by Congress to increase the nation's debt limit by Aug. 2 will only inconvenience some overseas investors who will lose confidence in the nation's desire to pay its bills on time, you are mistaken. The pain would likely be felt in many U.S. households. Post continues after video.
First, some background: The government actually smacked into the $14.29 trillion debt ceiling on May 16, but has continued to pay its bills with the help of several complicated accounting maneuvers.
The debt ceiling needs to be raised so the government can continue to pay for spending that Congress has already authorized, NPR explained. That's right. The government doesn't spend money willy-nilly. Congress is in charge of that.
The Treasury Department has said that unless the debt ceiling is raised -- allowing the government to borrow more money -- the government won't have enough cash to meet all of its obligations come Aug. 2. It's estimated that federal spending would have to be slashed by 40%.
How would that play out? Hard to say since this is virgin territory. But here are some possible scenarios that could affect your bottom line:
No Social Security and other payments. Treasury officials "say that could mean stopping or limiting not only interest payments to debt holders, but also Social Security and Medicare payments, unemployment benefits, tax refunds and money owed to government contractors," John D. McKinnon wrote in The Wall Street Journal.
Another scenario is mentioned by Doyle McManus in the Los Angeles Times:
The Bipartisan Policy Center, a centrist Washington think tank, released a study last week analyzing the real-world consequences of a debt-limit freeze. The short answer: After paying the interest on the federal debt to stave off default, the Treasury would have to cut federal spending on everything else by about half. The government could cover Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and military spending, but that's about all. Almost every other federal expenditure, including unemployment insurance, college tuition aid -- even FBI salaries and IRS refunds -- would have to stop.
It's unclear how the government would prioritize its spending. "Social Security recipients, who often rely on their check for daily living expenses, would probably be among the first in line (to get paid)," wrote Josh Sanburn at Time. "But so would bond holders: The government would likely do everything it could to protect its credit rating."
President Obama was asked about government benefits in a recent CBS News interview:
Well, this is not just a matter of Social Security checks, these are veterans checks, these are folks on disability, their checks. There are about 70 million checks that go out. ... I cannot guarantee those checks go out on August 3rd if we haven't resolved this issue because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it.
Massive government layoffs.Jim Puzzanghera of the Los Angeles Times said an impasse on the debt limit would "trigger a sort of slow-motion, partial government shutdown."
Even more government debt, which all of us would have to pay. If the U.S. defaults on its debt, investors would demand higher interest on future government securities. You know, like how it is when your credit score goes down when you don't pay your bills -- you face higher interest rates.
Bruce Bartlett, a former adviser to President Reagan, explained in "5 myths about the debt ceiling" in The Washington Post:
J.P. Morgan recently surveyed its clients and asked how much rates would rise if there was a delay in payments, even a very brief one. Domestic investors thought they would go up by 0.37 percentage points, but foreign buyers -- who own close to half the publicly held debt -- predicted an increase of more than half a percentage point. Any increase in this range would raise Treasury's borrowing costs by tens of billions of dollars per year.
Higher interest rates for all of us on all sorts of loans, including credit cards and mortgages. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner explained (.pdf file), "Treasury securities set the benchmark interest rate for a wide range of credit products, including mortgages, car loans, student loans, credit cards, business loans, and municipal bonds."
A big hit to retirement accounts -- again. "Additionally," Geithner wrote, "a default would substantially reduce the value of the investments -- including Treasury securities -- held in 401k accounts and pension funds, which families depend on for their retirement security."
How much would retirement savings shrink? "It depends on your allocations, of course, but some economists estimate that all of the gains from 2010 could be wiped out, while Third Way estimates that 401ks would lose an average of $8,816," Time said.
A possible return to a full-blown recession, with job losses estimated into the millions. As ProPublica notes, Geithner warned of that in the same letter to Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo. His words were: "catastrophic, far-reaching damage" to the economy. A letter sent to Congress by 235 economists warned, "Reaching the limit on total outstanding debt could force a dramatic and sudden cut in federal spending that would destroy jobs and threaten the recovery."

- Calculator:Am I saving enough for retirement?
If our Government fails to provide Social Security to workers that have worked and paid into it for their entire working lives, watch out!
Angry seniors won't stand for it and would likely march on Washington DC and start "stringing up" politicians. Man would that be a great site to see, politicians swinging by the street lights. Bet things would change in a hurry after just 50 or so.
The government has $400 Billion worth of gold that it can sell and stay afloat through the end of the year. In that time they have plenty of land and other assets that can be sold for a lot of money.
The trillions they get from all that selling will let them run the nation long enough to devise and implement a plan where they can live within our means.
August 2 is a scare tactic and fear mongering and political posturing.
On top of that the government collects $200 billion each month in taxes. It costs $85 billion to service the debt and pay Social Security.
The only way SS checks don't go out is if the President stops them so he can use the money for something else. The GOP cannot stop the SS checks from going out, only the President can do that.
If the Government Defaults, and can't live up to the financial obligations it has made through law and contracts; if the Government cannot provide for the General Welfare of it's People; is it not the right and duty of the People to declare the political and economic system a failure, and change the Political System by Calling a Convention of all the States to, "Right the Wrongs," and/or make changes by any means necessary? Isn't this what Jefferson had in mind?
"The Evil that Men Do Lives Long After Them." The Government, Wall Street, and the large Corporate and Multi-Nationals have literally destroyed the future of our Children and Grand Children. They deserve a Political and Economic System that works for ALL of the American People in a Fair, Just, and Equitable Manner.
When in the history of the World have the Rich and Powerful (greedy and selfish), ever made
made changes without somehow being FORCED to do so?
The reasoning given by the President and Democrats for raising the debt ceiling is a reason that will only be used time after time with nothing ever being done to solve the debt problem. The President agrees to cut spending......so cut spending. If you cut your spending and get rid of your unconstitutional programs, you can pay down the debt and never need to continuously increase the debt limit.
The argument that GWB raised the debt limit numerous times; therefore Obama should be able to is B.S. The fact is that neither should. Cut the programs and live by budgets just as everyone that works has to do.
Lastly, prior to any tax increases, let's let everyone that works pay their "fair share". A consumption or flat tax seems extremely fair. Do away with the nightmare of the current tax system and cut the IRS by 90%. Once "non-tax payers" start paying, they will understand that raising taxes is a big deal.
I'm fine with not getting SS. Just refund every penny that I put into it and I'll be cool. You don't even have to give me interest on MY money. In fact SS is voluntary go check the website. It's cool though, the Chairsatan Ben Bernanke will keep printing money so my gold and silver will go to $5000/oz and $500/oz respectively. Did you see the Bernanke today when Ron Paul asked him if gold was money and he said "No" then Paul asked why are all the central banks stockpiling gold. Bernank said "tradition", lolololololol!!!! If you believe that you are truly an idiot! Social Security is a Ponzi scheme just like our entire economy. Once the money stops flowing in, the music stops. We are seeing the End Game unfold right before our eyes. The global financial system is insolvent and nothing but a black hole of debt. Oh yea for all of the trolls who said that gold and silver are bubbles, please open your mouth 8=====o
Typical Republicrat
"Congress agrees that tax increases are out of bounds and that spending must be cut." The president agrees that spending must be cut."
You left out the little part, so typical, that the president also agrees for tax increases. So, who is holding this deal up? The party of NO, NEVER, EVER. The party of NO Compromise. The party of NEVER ACCEPT ANYTHING OUTSIDE OUR TERMS. The same party who voted OK for 8 previous debt ceiling raises with no issues while GWB was in office.
I blame Democrats just as much for overspending on social programs that are writ with fraud because they can't police the very programs they support. I just get sick and tired of people who point fingers at one side of the idiotic stupid trash sitting in congress when the probelm is on BOTH sides in BOTH houses.
It is like the new Republican soluition. We will ask the president to put in a measure to raise the debt ceiling. We will vote NO on that measure. The president can VETO that "no vote" on the measure, thus effectively allowing it to happen, unless the VETO is over-ridden by the vote needed. This way, the Republipukes can get the debt ceiling raised and put the ENTIRE BLAME on the President becuase they will all look to the people with their big innocent faces like little kids and yell "Hey, WE VOTED NO and HE OVER-RODE OUR DECISION." This, COMING from the very people who WANT to see the PRESIDENT FAIL far more than they ever have concern for FIXING THE PROBLEM.
No Social Security, veteran's assistance, and Medicare payments made, due to a shut down - - the rank and file will be urged NOT to pay any mortgage, credit card bills, and would initiate a Nation Wide Consumer Strike! Further, Consumers will be urged not to pay any utility bills of any kind. Same would be true for for loans on Motor Vehicles.
When Social Security and Veteran's assistance runs out, the Gray Panthers will hit the Streets.
. . . And, when that happens, "the Big Dog is going Down!!
If this debacle isn't resolved by Tax Time, Payments will have to be held back. People have to eat!
People paid into SS, but they didn't pay nearly enough to cover the cost of the benefits they get.
You also do not have a right to SS, the courts have already ruled on that in two separate cases and they have ruled that the government can stop or reduce benefits and that you have no right to the money.
When FDR tried to implement SS he told folks that they were paying premiums like they would to an insurance company or annuity and they had a right to it. But when the matter was in the courts FDR insisted that the people do not have a right to any SS payments. And that's how the courts ruled, it is not your money, it's a tax and you do not have any right to it.
During the previous administration the debt ceiling was raised 8 times while extending tax cuts for the wealthy and cutting the capital gains tax rate. Social Security and Medicare tax revenues were moved into the general fund and replaced with IOU's. Since S.S. and Medicare taxes max out at a moderate income level, this all translates into a regressive tax system where lower wage earners (through income + SS + Medicare taxes) pay higher rates than those wealthy folk living off of capital gains - think Paris Hilton.
Meanwhile we spent $1T in an underfunded war in Iraq and another $1T to bail out Wall Street crooks. Most of this debt was incurred under the Reagan-era mantra 'deficits don't matter'.
Now the bills come due and the solution is to cut Social Security and Medicare benefits. Who's great idea is this, to balance the books on the backs of retirees? It is the idea of some wealthy freshmen Congressmen who's assets and benefits are secure. These guys get a pension after 3 terms, while they vote to cut your retirement benefits.
Do you want to live in a meritocracy or an aristocracy? Once sufficient wealth and power accumulate at the top, say goodbye to this grand experiment in democracy.
The solution is simple; compromise. Close those tax loopholes for corporate jets and oil exploration, and raise the debt limit. However, this Tea Party Congress was elected for their in-your-face rhetoric and lack of basic political skills... like compromise. They would rather run the economy into the ground than compromise. Apparently the Tea Party can run a good pep rally but they cannot run a government; they lack the required basic skillset.
Part of me wants this all to go through just to watch all the "government doesn't create jobs" people squirm as they try to explain another spike in unemployment.
And yeah, in the upcoming triage of "who don't we pay" that'll come in this scenario, grandma's social security check may take a back seat to medicare and (more likely) defense spending. Doesn't matter what the money came in earmarked for, SS would likely by less important than keeping soldiers out of the unemployment line.
I guess you could say that everyones Social Security checks are safe for a very long time. You should stop writing articles that are intended to scare senior citizens.
I disagree with both of your assessments.
"Social Security checks are safe"?
It's true that the Social Security trust has trillions on the deposit side of its ledger. But money is fungible, and these deposits have been noted on IOUs stapled to the ledger: "Money borrowed for other gummint uses 'today,' but, we promise to pay it back 'tomorrow.'" Thus, the desire is to make this future payback less onerous, by treating this (solvent) fund as part of the deficit spending problem.
One way is to now say SS payments must be cut; in this way you reduce the IOUs (eliminated SS: you don't have to pay back any of the IOUs). Another is to change conditions that qualify you for SS payments; again, you reduce the need for 100% IOU payback.
"Stop writing articles that are intended to scare senior citizens"?
Roosevelt's New Deal, with programs such as Social Security that would provide benefits for citizens not only in the top 20 - 25% of the economy but also the bottom 75 - 80%, have been under attack since their inception. The current "Republican" legislators have made no secret of their desire to have a government (and a society in general) that taxes and spends with a view only to the investor class and the wealthy that provide campaign contributions and lobbyist / consultant / board jobs. Only if you're one of these folks do these Congressional Godfathers (La Tea Nostra?) work for you.
These folks aren't looking for ways to make social programs such as Social Security solvent. They're looking for ways to destroy the programs, and right now they think they're on a "starve the beast" roll with Treasury default.
Scare stories? Perhaps. But when they're true you should be scared. Very scared.

The word is out that Yamaha is planning to set the 2010 FZ6 naked further apart from the much similar XJ6 model and this sharper, sportier concept shows how the Japanese manufacturer might achieve that.
This Yamaha FZ6 concept is based on the modern R6 (note the minuscule pillion seat) and will most likely be powered by a significantly more powerful, new generation engine. Let's hope it does.
What do you think about this rendering? Does it look plausible?

Customer Raves & Reviews
Great customer service and magnet!
Vintage Bloom Save the Date Magnets I created custom colors for the Vintage Bloom save the date magnet design and it looked really great - the magnets came out looking vibrant and crisp. I also requested a number of changes to the design, which the customer service agents made quickly and exactly as I had requested. They were great! The magnets were very high quality and looked beautiful when they arrived in a keepsake box. The magnet holders were also very pretty and corresponded well with the magnets. I will definitely be ordering my invites and other stationary through Magnet Street as well. Thanks for a beautiful (and affordable) product!
Lovely Design
Something Blue Save the Date Magnets Vintage scroll work draws the eye to the beautiful photo and lettering. The font and accent colors work well with the contrast of the surrounding design. I loved being able to customize the style and color. Production time was speedy and I received my save-the-date magnets exactly when Magnetstreet said I would. I recommend this vendor and product. I also purchased the mounting card and return address labels. It makes a beautiful ensemble and my email box is filling up with compliments!
Beautiful save the date
Something Blue Save the Date Magnets I loved my save the dates. I personalized them with navy and a marigold yellow to match my invitations and they came out fantastic.
Great quality
Something Blue Save the Date Magnets We initially ordered a sample, and it was really nice quality, so we went ahead and got the full order. It was delivered quickly and with envelopes to match!
Love this magnet!
Vintage Banner Save the Date Magnets I chose this design because I wanted an Alice in Wonderland-esque save the date, and I got just that! I love my magnets!

Ryan Bingham performs his Oscar-winning song from the film "Crazy Heart," starring Jeff Bridges.
"The Weary Kind (Theme From Crazy Heart)" won Best Song for music veteran T-Bone Burnett and newcomer Ryan Bingham.
Bingham, who also had a small role in the film starring Jeff Bridges as a down-and-out country singer, helped Burnett craft a remarkably good song that evoked the Haggard-era sound that director Scott Cooper was looking for and captured many of the film's themes.

Michelle Obama took to the pages of the Wall Street Journal this morning to make the case that having grocery stores and restaurants tailor their offerings to fight obesity makes sound business sense.
The first lady's op-ed comes in the middle of a two-day "Let's Move!" tour, perhaps as a teaser to her "major announcement" today in Chicago about bringing more activity to schools.
Through "Let's Move!", her campaign to end childhood obesity, the first lady has encouraged grocery stores to offer more produce and less sugary food options. Walmart has been a focal point of her efforts, and the company has jumped on board to open more stores in "food deserts" and sell cheaper produce — choices, Obama said, that have paid off for the business and customers.
Not only do consumers benefit from buying more apples, but having businesses push healthy food choices reduces health care costs for everyone, she wrote:
These trends don't just matter for businesses that produce and sell food. They matter for every business in America. We spend $190 billion a year treating obesity-related health conditions like diabetes and heart disease, and a significant portion of those costs are borne by America's businesses. That's on top of other health-related costs like higher absenteeism and lower worker productivity, costs that will continue to rise and threaten the vitality of American businesses until this problem is solved once and for all.
Now Obama wants more businesses to tailor their products to "Let's Move!" specifications — whether it brings in revenue or not.
We need more leaders from all across the country to step up, and I stand ready to work with business leaders who are serious about taking meaningful steps to forge a healthier future. We need every business in America to dig deeper, get more creative, and find new ways to generate revenue by giving American families better information and healthier choices. We know this can be done in a way that's good for our kids and good for businesses.

Evanston, IL (WKZO) – Before Saturday night's contest with the Northwestern Wildcats, the Western Michigan men's basketball had been averaging over 75 points per game. But tonight the Broncos made just 10 field goals and lost to the Wildcats 51-35 at Welsh-Ryan Arena.
Shayne Whittington and David Brown were the only Broncos (5-3) to reach double figures with 12 and 10, respectively. As a team WMU shot only 24.4% (10-41) from the field and missed 14 of 15 three-point attempts.
Drew Crawford had 15 points and nine rebounds for the Wildcats (5-5), which held a 24-12 lead at halftime and led by as much as 20 in the second half.
Game Notes: Whittington had a game high 10 rebounds…The Broncos bench didn't score until Hayden Hoerdemann made a free throw with 18 seconds left in the game…Northwestern shot just 32.7% (18-55)…Brown shot 3 of 15 and missed all six three point attempts before fouling out with less than a minute left in the game…The Broncos are now off for eight days before taking on the Missouri Tigers on Sunday December 15th at 7pm in Columbia, Missouri.

Many tools for the early detection of breast cancer are under study. Some tools are already used in diagnosis and staging and are widely available. These tools have been studied in the early detection setting more than others and include:
Other tools under study for the early detection of breast cancer include:
More research is needed on all of these tools to know whether they may play a role in breast cancer screening for all women or certain groups of women at higher risk.
If you are interested in joining a clinical trial studying one of these screening methods, talk to your health care provider. BreastCancerTrials.org in collaboration with Susan G. Komen® offers a custom matching service that can help you find a clinical trial on breast cancer screening.
Learn more about clinical trials.
Special imaging machines can take multiple, standard two-dimensional (2D) digital mammograms. Computer software combines the 2D X-ray images into a three-dimensional (3D) image (called breast tomosynthesis). Radiologists must have special training to read these 3D images.
Breast tomosynthesis is not a substitute for 2D mammography. A breast tomosynthesis machine provides both a regular digital mammogram and an enhanced 3D image based on the 2D images. All of the X-rays are taken on the same machine, so a woman getting breast tomosynthesis in combination with a mammogram stays in place. Because more X-rays are taken, breast tomosynthesis gives a slightly higher dose of radiation than mammography (this higher dose is still within FDA guidelines) [81].
Some studies have suggested screening with digital mammography plus breast tomosynthesis may find more breast cancers than digital mammography alone [78-80].
Digital mammography in combination with breast tomosynthesis is starting to be used in clinical practice. At this time, it is not widely available.
Nuclear medicine breast imaging (you may also hear the term molecular breast imaging) uses short-term radioactive agents that are given through an IV. These agents are absorbed into tissues, including the breast. Breast cancer cells appear to absorb more of the agents than healthy cells and these cancer cells can be imaged with a special camera. Nuclear medicine breast imaging is being studied in combination with mammography screening for women with dense breasts [82].
Two types of nuclear medicine imaging techniques are:
A main concern about the use of BSGI and PEM as breast cancer screening tools is that they give a dose of radiation that is 15 to 20 times higher than a dose from mammography [84]. Ways to lower the amount of radiation exposure are under study.
Although still under study, BSGI and PEM are used in clinical practice, but are not widely available.
Thermography uses infrared light to measure temperature differences on the surface of the breast. Although breast cancer can cause abnormal heat patterns, many benign conditions also cause abnormal heat patterns. Thermography cannot distinguish between benign and cancerous patterns [85]. And, because thermography measures heat at the surface of the breast, it is not good at finding cancers deeper within the breast tissue.
Neither the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) nor the American College of Radiology views thermography as a useful breast screening or imaging tool [86-87]. In 2011, the FDA issued an alert warning the public about misleading claims by thermography practitioners and manufacturers on the screening benefits of the tool [87]. To read the full alert, visit the FDA website.
Our commitment to research
At Susan G. Komen®, we are committed to ending breast cancer forever. Our global research grants and scientific programs are essential driving forces for achieving this mission. Many of the world's leaders in breast cancer research have been supported by Komen's Research and Scientific Programs – including three Nobel Laureates. Komen's funding has supported research that has resulted in a better understanding of breast cancer; earlier detection; personalized, less-invasive treatments for what was once a "one-treatment-fits-all" disease; and improved survival rates. Learn more about the exciting research we are funding.
Komen funds research looking at new methods of early detection. One new method is ultrasound tomography, a tool that uses ultrasound technology. Ultrasound tomography may give information on breast density by measuring the speed that sound waves travel through the breast [88].
Learn about the latest research on ultrasound tomography that Komen is funding in our newest Stories of Discovery.

Tony Cottee
- Born: 11/07/1965
- Birthplace: Plaistow
- Nationality: English
- Debut: 27/08/1988 v Newcastle (H)
A former England international and British record transfer signing, Cottee scored 28 goals in 68 Premiership games for Everton before heading back to his first club - and boyhood favourites - West Ham United.
He left Upton Park for a second time in 1996, taking in a brief sojourn in Malaysian football before joining Leicester City.
On leaving the top flight three years later, Cottee became one of the few players to feature in all four English professional divisions in one season. He left Premiership Leicester for Division One Norwich City in September 2000, before joining Barnet as player-manager two months later.
After his dismissal as Bees boss in March 2001 - having taken them from promotion candidates to the brink of relegation - he put on his boots once again, joining Millwall.
Having retired in the summer of 2001, he became coach for the strikers at Leyton Orient under former West Ham team-mate Paul Brush. Now, he earns a crust as a regular pundit on British satellite television.

One of the things that makes us happy is knowing that teachers and students have been inspired by our work. A couple of years ago we started to notice videos appearing on YouTube that students produced in class and called "Common Craft Style" videos. There are now over 2000 on YouTube. Yesterday I was browsing the videos and saw this one, which totally made our day: Reading in email? Watch the video here. This is one reason we started offering our Cut-outs and teamed up with GoAnimate - to... Continue Reading
English teacher Alex Quigley (@HuntingEnglish) recently shared his top ten explanation tips: A few gems: 1. 'Know what the students know' when planning your explanation: All great teachers have an excellent knowledge of their students. This knowledge is paramount in pitching the explanation just right. Vygotsky's 'zone of proximal development' is key here – the explanation should be matched to the audience: not too complex as to be unintelligible to the students, but not too simple or...

When people ask about the inspiration for our style of videos, I often say that our videos reflect the way that I wish I had learned in school. My learning style wasn't a good match for the way I was taught. Recently we completed a custom video project with the Buck Institute for Education (BIE) that focuses on a Project Based Learning or "PBL", and boy did it open my eyes. I can now see that I needed teachers who put PBL to work. I needed to get up from my desk and engage. I needed to work on... Continue Reading
I've always hated math. Since about the 6th grade, I've always felt behind and deemed myself "not a math person." As I get older, I'm realizing that part of my problem was how I was taught math. It always seemed like memorization and rules without context. I never had teachers that helped me develop a passion for math or see the the magic in solving problems. I wrote about this experience here. Recently I learned about a series of thirteen blog posts that are meant for people like me. Steven... Continue Reading

Illinois is marking the 72nd anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor that killed 1,177 people and brought the United States into World War II.
The Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs is holding a Pearl Harbor Remembrance Ceremony on Saturday afternoon at the Disabled American Veterans' Club in Springfield.
The service will include a display of Pearl Harbor-related memorabilia, military honors and a wreath laying in Lake Springfield.
Gov. Pat Quinn earlier this week proclaimed Saturday Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. He ordered flags be flown at half-staff from sunset and sunrise in memory of those who died in the attack and to honor the people who survived.
President Franklin Roosevelt called Dec. 7, 1941 "a date which would live in infamy."

Would You Hire a Deaf Nurse?
A nursing school boots out a deaf student over concerns that her hearing loss would limit her ability to safely perform clinical rotations. Nonsense, says the Association of Medical Professionals with Hearing Losses.
There's a moral conundrum playing out in Missouri, where nursing student Jessica Wells sued the college that booted her out of its nursing program. The reason she was ousted? She's deaf.
According to a report in the St. Louis Post Dispatch, the student, Jessica Wells, sued Cox College in Springfield, MO after the college dismissed her from its nursing program in early 2008. In its dismissal letter to Wells, the college asserted that her "hearing loss would substantially limit (and in some cases completely limit) [her] ability to safely perform clinical rotations."
Wells sued the school, and although a summary judgment initially ruled in favor of the college, the Missouri Southern District Court of Appeals overturned that ruling. A jury in a trial earlier this month sided with Wells, saying that the school should have provided reasonable accommodations for her to participate in the program.
According to the court of appeals' ruling, the school "offered nothing more than its subjective belief that the use of an ASL [American Sign Language] interpreter in the clinical setting posed a direct safety threat" and "asserts no facts related to Plaintiff's use of an ASL interpreter in her first semester of clinical rotations that would allow a fact finder to find that such a threat existed."
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

I would like that if you hire a deaf medical assistance and i already have medical assistance certification.
Elisabeth (9/10/2013 at 11:57 AM)
My elderly mother's PCP is deaf and this individual does a fabulous job of accomodating and tending to her needs. I admire this individual greatly for having the courage to pursue their dreams. It is a non issue for us when I take my mother for her appointments. What this college did is down right WRONG and a violation of this individual civil rights. I hope she wins her case and pursues her dream. Best of luck to you.
Suella Thrasher (8/26/2013 at 11:14 AM)
Many hostile comments recorded. This would be a great assignment in a masters program-when I completed my MSN, I had to develop a teaching plan for an autistic student. At first I said to myslef "no way"; but I learned a lot. At the acute bedside (my background) hearing is necessary I think..how can you hear behind you...a code paged overhead..hubbub in a unit..other nurses could adjust to the disability but it would be quite a challenge. Don't know that it's impossible but certainly a serious challenge. There are other places for nurses (auditing for example) but those are best served with experience...bottom line...i don't know...

NEW YORK (MainStreet)—For a period of time in the 1970s, Jim Cramer lived in his '77 Ford Fairmount. But life would have been vastly different for the Old Dog if he'd had access to apps like Carrr Matey, Parkopedia and Trapster.
So with the current buzz around the New York International Auto Show, my sister, Nicole, and I decided to run through these apps for this edition of Old Dog, New Blog to have Cramer learn how he can better locate his car, find a parking spot and avoid speeding tickets. It's a far cry from the rough-and-tumble old-school days, but it will certainly be worthwhile when he saves himself the hassle of trying to find his car at Eagles games.
Watch the episode below, and learn more from Cramer's recent LinkedIn interview about the "untethered" life in a car.

The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) was organized in St. Louis in November, 1891. In June, 1911, Local Union 697 was instituted and charter granted by the International Office of Electrical Workers. The first meeting was held in the basement of the Gary Hotel and the first group consisted of 14 members. They worked to increase the wage earned for workers and by 1918 they had raised the wage scale from $5.50 per day to $6 per day for journeymen and $7 a day for foremen. The Local Union 697 also stood by members when they followed the call of duty to serve during WWI, keeping them in good standing and providing jobs when they returned home.
IBEW Local 697 has always had a strong relationship with employers and they do not overlook the part they have played in building up the electrical industry in the region. They established an apprentice program in 1927 at Hammond Tech with 15 apprentices. At times, due to market demand, there have been up to 200 apprentices in the program. In 1939 the Joint Apprentice Training Committee was formed. Then, as well as now, the committee was comprised of three contractors and three journeymen.
Today, IBEW Local 697 has approximately 1,000 members, 500 retirees, and 150 apprentices from Lake and Porter Counties. They do work in Lake County, Porter County, as well as Newton County. They continue to grow and embrace change. Carol Link was their first woman apprentice in the late 1970s and there are currently 10 female apprentices/electricians. Training has changed over the years, as one would expect. Much is done by computers today, whereas in the past, control circuits were hard wired with large boards on walls equipped with relays. Apprentices were trained to run conduit, pull circuits, and terminate the motor controls. Now control wiring is mostly done with software and programmable logic controllers. "We have moved from the light bulb in the middle of the room, to fiber optics, computers, and space-age camera systems. It's unbelievable!" says Raymond Kasmark, business manager for IBEW Local 697.
Throughout its history, IBEW Local 697 has also taken an active role in community and civic affairs. Pirates Inc. is an organization started in the 1960's by a group of Calumet Region businessmen, construction contractors, and building trades local union leaders. The two main benefactors are Down Syndrome of NWI, and TradeWinds Services. Local 697 has supported Pirates through membership dues, sponsorships for golf outings, and the annual "Voyage" event for as long as the entity has existed. In addition most of the business managers, including Kasmark, have served a term as "admiral." Local 697's financial contribution for 2012 alone was over $4,700.
TradeWinds Services is currently located in Gary and was constructed in the 1960's and 70's largely with donated labor and materials from Northwest Indiana's union construction industry, contractors and unions. TradeWinds serves the special needs of preschool and adult clients of the Calumet Region. Local 697 has been an annual donor, giving $9,000 in 2012, and they have continuously held a seat on the board of directors for over 20 years. TradeWinds is in the process of renovating a facility in Hobart and Local 697 will be heavily invested in helping with this initiative as well.
"Lake Area United Way is probably the organization which has received the most financial support from our organization over the decades," says Kasmark. "Our annual support has gone from $20,000 some thirty years ago to around $50,000 currently. We have also held a board seat representing labor more years than not since its inception. Indiana Ballet Theater is a recent addition to our portfolio of community support. Last year we donated $10,000 towards their capital campaign for the renovation of the old Paramore hospital building in Crown Point.
Operation Shoebox sends personal hygiene items to our troops in Afghanistan and Iraq and is spearheaded by Local 697 member Andre Bribiesca. We are also a perennial sponsor of trophies for the electrical project portion of the annual fair competition for the Lake County 4H Club. And we participate in Rebuilding Together, an annual event where 10 to 20 of our members donate their services to help fix up homes for those in need in north and south Lake County. We do this twice a year. We host two blood drives each year for the Red Cross and have been active on their board of directors. The March of Dimes Walk is another annual event drawing the active participation of close to 75 of our members and their families. We always are among the leading teams for dollars raised. We're also involved in the Early Learning Partnership, which was formerly called Parents as Teachers of Lake County. We are heavy financial supporters and active on the board of directors. Both the Merrillville War Memorial on 73rd Avenue and the Merrillville VFW Memorial drew our financial and technical assistance, and the Jefferson Elementary Robotics Team (Hammond) was supported financially and technically by our local and two of our Apprentices last year," Kasmark says.
Local 697 has supported such additional groups as The American Heart Association, Save the Dunes, Operation Shoebox, Helping Hands, Meals on Wheels, Lake County FOP, St. Joseph's Carmelite Home, Saint Jude House, Franciscan Sisters, Merrillville Police Department, Sherri's Warriors, Hammond Optimist Club, ABATE-MDA, Alzheimer's Association, Lake County Police K-9 Association, Griffith Knights of Columbus, Merrillville Pop Warner Football, Hobart Brickyard Run, Hobart Police FOP, Visiting Nurses Association, Down Syndrome Association, ORAK Shrine Circus, Crown Point Police Department, Crown Point Junior Bulldogs, and Challenger Learning Center.
"We continue our long legacy of giving back to the community and know that it is the right thing to do," Kasmark says. The IBEW prides itself on being the Union of Hearts and Minds, and we continue to innovate to keep the region progressing. If you continue to do what you have always done, you will go out of business. In our business, you are either growing or you are dying. The infrastructure utilized today is exponentially different than it was 100 years ago. Our electrical trade forces us to be innovative. Our members are part of the community and we are looking to the next 100 years! We are here today because people before us made sure there would be a local after them. Our job is to continue this for generations to come."

Makeup-Bag Check: Emma Stone
The Mission: Give Revlon global brand ambassador Emma Stone a daytime-appropriate, "fresh and playful" makeup look for this weekend's early afternoon New York premiere of The Croods.
The Face Painter: Chanel celebrity makeup artist Rachel Goodwin.
The Face: After prepping the perimeter of Stone's skin with Chanel Sublimage Essential Regenerating Fluid to avoid making skin too shiny, Goodwin dabbed Revlon's Nearly Naked Foundation in Vanilla directly on to the center of her face, fanning it out toward the edges with a Beauty Blender sponge for a diffused effect. To add a subtle, emollient sheer-pink flush, Goodwin blended Revlon's ColorBurst Lip Butter in Creamsicle across her cheeks.
The Eyes: Building a "softer version of a smoky eye," Goodwin used warm metallic pigments from Revlon's ColorStay 16H Eyeshadow Quad in Addictive and the molten-brown color from its Illuminance Crème Shadow Quad in Precious Metals, which she worked in to Stone's lash line and up through the crease of her eyes. Curling the lashes, Goodwin finished by swiping on two coats of its PhotoReady 3D Volume Mascara in Black on both the top and bottom.
The Lips: Using a blend of Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick in Runway and Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Chic, Goodwin layered the nude pigments together for a "soft look" that still provided definition.
The Result: Makeup that was easy like a Sunday morning (spent on the red carpet).

1. Establishing tax ID for business.
2. Establish separate bank and credit card accounts for the business using its tax ID.
3. If you get loans for business purposes, you can put them under the business name/tax ID. Normally the lender will make you sign both on behalf of the business as well as providing a personal guarantee and putting your personal assets as collateral.
If you have specific questions, you can visit with your accountant or post additional questions.

Just last Monday, photos surfaced online of Justin Bieber in the nude, his gentleman's parts obscured only by a guitar. Let the mocking begin.
On Wednesday, Emblem3 tweeted a photo of the three of them -- all of whom are extremely buff, by the way -- standing naked in a hotel room, with a guitar covering their privates as well. To be completely accurate, Wesley Stromberg is actually holding a MIDI keyboard in front of his junk. The photo's accompanied by the tweet, "Hey @justinbieber, we're in Canada ready for the jam sesh!"
The reason they're in Canada makes the tweet sting even more: the trio is opening for Justin's ex, Selena Gomez , as her Stars Dance tour gets underway tonight in Vancouver, BC.
Justin seems to be doing OK, though. E! Online reports that he was seen on a lunch date Tuesday in Beverly Hills with 20-year-old aspiring model Ashley Moore .

Sex, Snow, and Cocaine: My Life As a Ski Resort 'Chalet Bitch'
Belle de Neige ("Beautiful Snow", if you didn't take French) is a blog about what people who work ski seasons get up to when they're not fixing snow blades, or delivery apres-ski drinks to Jemima Khan and whoever else goes on ski holidays. The writer just condensed a bunch of her blog posts into a book, so we asked her to condense her book back into a blog post. This is that.
I've been blogging about all the unpalatable shit people get up to on ski seasons for five years. And I'd say I've covered all the major bases: sex, ill-advised drug consumption, orgies, avalanches, immoral workplace behavior, rich delinquents, Russian prostitutes—everything you'd expect when you mix young people with high altitudes. So wrapping that all up into one snappy article should be easy, right? All I need to do is reel off a few anecdotes involving undignified sexual encounters as a result of British teens exporting British drinking culture, and I'm set.
But the problem is that I don't want to start out like that, because perpetuating bullshit myths is boring. And because not everyone behind the scenes of Europe's ski resorts are Harrovian drop-outs or braying packs of Hollister homeboys. In fact, many "seasonaires"—the word for people who work ski seaons up in the mountains—aren't like that at all. Many of those who I know are laborers, or lost their jobs in the recession.

Summer might be ending in Cleveland – but Summer has returned to the dating blog world. Please try and contain your excitement.
There's a chill in the air, the sun sets before 8pm, my impeccable tan has faded.. and I honestly have nothing better to do, so I guess it's a good time to end my summer blogging hiatus.
Oddly enough, I'm still dating the same person I was in June (see last dating blog post). Of course my little foray into monogamy isn't without challenges. There are many. Future posts about awkward relationship moments will follow shortly.
Being half of an actual couple (where a significant other is around more than once a week) has been a shock to my system. I'm not quite used to it. Like, what do you mean I can no longer eye fuck that tall guy in the corner until he comes over to give me his number? No weekend boating excursion to the islands with a random man? And apparently it's not okay to partake in my yearly ritual of meeting my insanelyhot ex-boyfriend for dinner. I kid, I kid. Of course I'll take my boyfriend over any of those. It simply took a bit of adjusting to the notion that I could no longer run off and do as I pleased with whoever, whenever, wherever. I'm over 30 after all.. it's easy to get set in my ways.
I still stumble when trying to utter the phrase "my boyfriend." It sounds foreign to someone like me who has been habitually single for the bulk of life. Don't get me wrong – I'm happy to say he's my boyfriend. It just resonates a bit funny.
The two of us became serious rather quickly, as we are both impulsive people. I hope it continues to progress. I'm rather fond of him. Eventually, the whole "where are we heading/what do you want for your future" discussion will be necessary to ensure our goals somewhat align. Probably sooner rather than later. That should be about as pleasant as… oh, I don't know…me being forced to spend another hour with this guy? (Metaphors are so not my forte). Ahhh, the joys of being single after thirty! Isn't it refreshing to know that time is no longer on your side when it comes to dating?
Speaking of the joys of being single after 30, have you seen this My Friends Are Married tumblr site? This is my life (and possibly many of the readers of this blog) rolled into some .GIF-file laden pages on the web. The most depressing part isn't the stark reality that everyone I grew up with is married and I'm not. It's that the author is only 25! Sigh. Maybe she lives in the south? People get married abnormally young in the south. Right? (Note: I just scrolled through the latest posts and she is from the south. Phew.)
Sorry if visiting the My Friends Are Married site ruined your night. I'll leave you with a peppy reminder: 51% of marriages end in divorce. Another 25% of marriages should end due to the total despair of one or more parties. So, a whopping 24% of your married friends may stand a fighting chance at happiness.

The National Weather Service says a tornado swept through Hall and Lumpkin counties on Thursday night, creating a path over 4 miles long and 250 yards wide. Officials said an NWS meteorologist confirmed EF-0 and EF-1 tornado damage on Friday morning.
An EF-1 storm contains winds of 90 to 105 mph.
Officials said the tornado reached maximum intensity around 9:30 p.m. along Bridgestone Road in Lumpkin County, damaging 12 homes. Two of those homes were destroyed by falling trees. Authorities blocked off the road as they worked to remove the downed trees and repair power lines. Some of the downed trees also fell on cars.
"My son heard a whistle and just real quick, we hit the tub and it was over with, just very fast. I have plenty of trees going down in the front yard and the whole side yard. There's probably six trees down over there, just snapped," said homeowner Dana Brooks.
NWS officials say the tornado moved into Hall County, bringing down more trees and power lines near Old Welchel Road. Two homes sustained minor damage there.
The tornado then crossed back into Lumpkin County, damaging one mobile home and destroying another along Mount Olive Church Road.
Contractors arrived on Friday to begin preliminary clean-up work.
According to Georgia Power, 4,700 customers were without power early Friday morning. Crews were able to work quickly, and only 475 customers throughout the state were still without power at 11 a.m.

Great start to Easter dinner. Roasted the beets the day prior, made the dressing in the morning so everything came together superquick at dinner. Used bagged salad blend with radicchio, otherwise made to recipe. Great combo of colors and flavors, the o.j. reduction was a nice touch.
Winter Salad with Roasted Beets and Citrus Reduction Dressing
Photo: Randy Mayor; Styling: Cindy Barr
"My ultimate starter salad would celebrate the produce of the season and make a knockout-gorgeous addition to the table, so I developed this one using fresh orange juice, multicolored beets, and--for good measure--some creamy, tangy goat cheese." --Timothy Q. Cebula, Associate Food Editor

- 3/4 cup fresh orange juice (about 4 oranges)
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon minced shallots
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 cups torn Boston lettuce
- 2 cups trimmed watercress
- 2 cups torn radicchio
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled goat cheese
- 1. Preheat oven to 400°.
- 2. Leave root and 1-inch stem on beets; scrub with a brush. Place beets on a foil-lined jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Lightly coat beets with cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until tender. Cool beets slightly. Trim off beet roots and stems; rub off skins. Cut beets into 1/2-inch-thick wedges.
- 3. Bring juice and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan; cook 10 minutes or until reduced to 2 tablespoons. Pour into a medium bowl; cool slightly. Add shallots, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, stirring with a whisk. Gradually add oil, stirring constantly with a whisk.
- 4. Combine lettuce, watercress, and radicchio. Sprinkle lettuce mixture with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; toss gently to combine. Arrange about 1 cup lettuce mixture on each of 8 salad plates. Divide beets evenly among salads. Drizzle about 1 tablespoon dressing over each salad; sprinkle each salad with 1 tablespoon cheese.
- Wine note: White wine is usually a good bet with salad, but the earthy and robust flavors in Winter Salad with Roasted Beets and Citrus Reduction Dressing allow this hearty course to handle a lighter red wine, such as Irony Monterey Pinot Noir 2006 ($16). The wine's berry fruit goes well with goat cheese, and its earthy mushroom flavors are enhanced by roasted beets, while tart acidity on the finish matches the citrus. --Jeffery Lindenmuth

Perfection! It's a shame that they are no longer offering this dress in "Jade," which is the color I chose for my wedding party last year. This dress looked wonderful on all my maids, sizes 00 to 14. The texture of the satin is only visible up close, and it helps the fabric drape perfectly without accenting bulges like traditional satin does! Very flattering! A plus is the straight seams down the sides. My cousin is teeny and the size 2 (smallest available) was swimming on her, but with the straight seams, it was super easy to have altered. Cannot brag enough about this dress. Wonderful! June 14, 2012
Beautiful Dress I bought this dress in black for a Black and White Ball. I'm a plus size woman, (size 24), it's comfortable, breathable, and easy to dance in too. I received many compliments on the dress. May 9, 2012
beautiful! I chose this dress and another dress in Golden for my 5 bridesmaids to try on. I have to say, this dress hands down looked awesome on all of them. They are all different sizes and heights and it just looked great on them!! The texture is so cool and different - nothing I've seen before. I can't wait to see all of them in this dress again for my wedding! December 21, 2011
Awesome dress!! My bridesmaids LOVE this dress!! I picked out a couple of different dresses in the stores for them to try on and they loved this one the best! It works for all sizes of girls and is very flattering as well! April 18, 2011
