MANILA, Philippines (AP) -- A cruise ship with 1,000 people on board that was disabled by a fire and drifted in southern Philippine waters for 24 hours was headed toward Malaysia after repairs, the Philippine coast guard said Saturday.
The Azamara Quest informed the coast guard late Saturday that its power and propulsion had been restored and it was moving slowly toward Sandakan, its next destination after it left Manila Thursday, spokesman Lt. Cmdr. Algier Ricafrente said.
A coast guard vessel sent to assist the cruise liner reported that it had sighted the ship from about 9 kilometers (5 nautical miles) away and was approaching it.
The ship's captain earlier said by email to the coast guard that it needed no assistance and that everything was "under control."
The ship had been drifting since a fire broke out Friday night. The flames engulfed one of the ship's engine rooms but were quickly extinguished, Azamara Club Cruises said in a statement. Five crew suffered smoke inhalation, including one who was seriously injured and needed hospital care.
The stricken ship was drifting Saturday in the Sulu Sea about 130 kilometers (70 nautical miles) south of the Philippines' Tubbataha Reef, Ricafrente said. The area lies between the Philippines and the island of Borneo, which is divided between Malaysia and Indonesia.
It was the latest in a series of accidents hitting luxury cruise liners since January, when the Costa Concordia capsized off the coast of Italy, killing 32 people.
The Azamara Quest has 590 passengers and 411 crew members. Operator Azamara Club Cruises is part of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.
The vessel left Hong Kong on Monday for what was supposed to be a 17-day Southeast Asian cruise. The ship made a port call in Manila and left for Sandakan on Thursday. It was scheduled to make several stops in Indonesia before arriving in Singapore on April 12.
The ship's senior physician, Oliver Gilles, said that the crew member who was in serious condition suffered "prolonged heat and smoke exposure."
There were no information about the nationalities of the passengers and crew, but British media said they included Britons and Americans.
Ricafrente said that no distress call was received and there would be an investigation.
Engineers earlier Saturday restored electricity in the ship to re-establish air conditioning, running water, plumbing, refrigeration and food preparation, the company said.
The company said the rest of the ship's voyage would be canceled.
A month after 32 people died when the Costa Concordia ran aground and capsized off the western coast of Italy, a fire on the Costra Allegra left that ship without power and adrift in waters known to be prowled by pirates in the Indian Ocean for three days.
Both Costa ships are part of Costa Crociere, SpA, a subsidiary of Carnival Corp., the world's largest cruise operator.

Cody Shaefer is a curious 10-year-old who likes to look for lost money or tickets left behind.
But neither he nor his father could have ever imagined he would find $10,000 left behind in a bureau drawer at Kansas City hotel.
Gail Schaefer said she, her son and grandson were staying in the hotel for one night. She said her grandson was searching the drawers. She said her grandson has a penchant for hunting for spare change, but had never made a find like this before.
"It was crazy," she said. "He opened the desk drawer and said, 'Here's some money!'"
She and her son, Tyler, were astounded by the large amount.
"We probably sat there for an hour and thought about it because it's a lot of money. It's not like $100, you know," she said, laughing. "We didn't want to turn it into the front desk because I wanted to make sure that if it's someone who needs it gets it."
After deciding they couldn't keep it, they called the authorities. Two off-duty officers were working security at the hotel. They took the cash and contacted an on-duty supervisor.
According to a police report, officers went to the Hilton Hotel at 8801 NW 112th St. just before 11 p.m. Saturday.
The hotel has a name for the woman who occupied the room but no telephone number for her.
No one has come forward yet to claim the money. The Kansas City Police Department is depositing the money in a bank. If no one claims it, the department will give the money to the state. There is a long-shot chance that the Schaefers will get to keep it, but most likely it will become Missouri tax dollars.
One theory is that the money was gained through illicit means, which is why the owner hasn't come forward.
The Schaefers live in Rapid City, SD. Most of their friends and family believe they did the right thing, but at least one person questioned their sanity.
What do you think? If no one claims the money, should the family get to keep it, or should it go to the state coffers? Weigh in on KCTV5's Facebook page. Click here.

Store removes sign after angry tweets
7:00am Saturday 11th January 2014 in News
A SIGN put up by retailer Carpet Right in Botley Road, Oxford, was taken down yesterday after angry residents took to Twitter to criticise the shop.
One resident described the retailer as the "villains" of the flooding crisis for placing a sign outside the shop which said that parking was for customers only and any vehicles left in the car park all day could be "removed without warning".
But a spokesman for Carpet Right said: "We put the signs up when Seacourt was closed because it was rammed full. We were not being mean-spirited and it was made clear that residents who were flooded were able to use the car park." Carpet Right remained closed yesterday.

Though most ingredients of a basic first-aid kit are used to treat injuries, there is one component which can cause serious damage. Aromatic spirits of ammonia ampules contain 0.33 ml. of 15 percent ammonium hydroxide and 35 percent alcohol. This inhalant, which is used as a smelling salt, is capable of causing caustic burns to the oral cavity if bitten or mucosal burns if inserted in the nose, due to the high content of ammonia.
Since prevention is a cornerstone to poison management, these kits should be kept out of the reach of children. If an inquisitive toddler, intent on discovering his or her world, does become exposed to this product, it should be treated as an alkaline corrosive. Call the Poison Control Center immediately. Irrigation and dilution (not forceful) with milk or water is indicated at home, followed by evaluation at a health care facility.

Gwinnett County police are investigating a deadly shooting that happened Friday morning at an apartment complex on Jimmy Carter Boulevard.
The shooting happened at about 7 a.m. at the Paces Crossing Apartments in the Norcross area, according to investigators.
Officers tell FOX 5 News that 35-year-old William Damron, of Tennessee, was found dead at the entrance to the apartment complex.
Police say it appears Damron was shot during an argument involving another man and a woman.
According to the Gwinnett Police Department, preliminary information reveals there was some sort of dispute between two males and a female and at some point a firearm was introduced and shots were fired.
The incident was related to a domestic dispute between an estranged husband, wife and third party.
Police are questioning the man and woman involved in that domestic dispute.
Detectives say everyone involved in the shooting was found at the scene.
FOX 5 will provide more information as it becomes available.

Funds raised to support breast cancer research
On Tuesday, Oct.16, two area high schools' regularly scheduled swim meet became extra special. About 75 swimmers from University High School and DeLand High School put on pink swimsuits to honor breast cancer survivors and raise funds for the Florida Hospital DeLand Cancer Resource Center, which provides local women with prosthetic devices following breast surgery, as well as wigs and other cancer resources.
Even though the swimmers from DeLand High School won the meet, the real winners are local women who depend on those free services at the Florida Hospital DeLand Cancer Resource Center. The swimmers, ranging between ninth and 12th grade, raised $1,000 by selling breast cancer awareness T-shirts and snacks, such as pink cupcakes, at the Four Townes Family YMCA, 280 Wolf Pack Run in Deltona.

STOCKBRIDGE, Mass. | Comic book great Alex Ross, often-called "the Norman Rockwell of the comics world," will have his works exhibited in the Stockbridge museum that bears the late artist's name.
Ross, who attended an opening event at the Norman Rockwell Museum earlier this month, said that Norman Rockwell influenced his unique, photorealistic renderings of superheroes such as Batman, Superman and The Avengers.
"We both hone in on trying to represent the grit of life in some detail," said Ross, in a recent telephone interview. "What made Rockwell is what shaped me."
Heroes & Villains: The Comic Book Art of Alex Ross will be on view at the Rockwell museum through Feb. 24.
This is the first museum exhibition celebrating Ross' work. Organized by the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, the exhibition features more than 130 works including paintings, drawings, photographs and sculptures from Ross' personal collection.
The exhibition features rarely-seen works — from his crayon drawing of Spider-Man, created when he was 4 years old, to his work for such publications as "Marvels," ''Justice" and "Kingdom Come."
Ross, now based in the Chicago area, has worked on the best-selling "Kingdom Come" for DC Comics and on Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, which is collected in "World's Greatest Super Heroes and Uncle Sam" for Vertigo comics. His interior artwork for DC includes the epic series "Justice" featuring the Justice League Of America, which he co-wrote with Jim Krueger.
Ross said he would like comics to be read by more people, but that doesn't mean simply producing more comics because already "more are being put out by the major companies than there is an audience for."
Many of the current works are aimed at men in his age category, the 42-year-old artist said; the younger audience has moved on to video games and other media.
Almost 70 percent of U.S. comic-book readers are adults, according to the www.firstamendmentcenter.org
"There are legions of fans that want to see stuff evolve and grow" while comics in general is a "breeding ground for potential movie properties" and merchandising, Ross said.
But with an older audience, there is increasing sex and violence in comics. "Younger readers are used to a liberal amount of violence and edginess in the video games they play," Ross said, noting that there are mature content warnings on comic books.
What he illustrates is "largely veering away from violence because it doesn't work for me as an entertainment tool," he said. Like anything else, "it can be run into the ground. If we develop a homogeny of excess, it loses its power."
"Heroes & Villains" pays homage to Ross' inspirations, including original work by his mother Lynette Ross, also a successful illustrator, Frank Bez, Andrew Loomis and Rockwell. Also featured in the exhibition are works by Andy Warhol, a comic book fan, including his "Myths" series, which mirrors many of the subjects depicted in Ross' work.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (UWSP) – The UW-Stevens Point men's basketball team fended off a late run by UW-Eau Claire to earn a 54-50 win in Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference competition Saturday afternoon.
The Pointers (12-2, 5-0 WIAC) led 24-21 entering the half, but the Blugolds pulled to within 28-27 just three minutes into the second half.
That's as close as UW-Eau Claire (6-9, 0-6 WIAC) would get as UWSP went on a 16-0 run to claim a 44-27 lead midway through the second half.
DaVon Jackson accounted for seven points during the run. The run began with a Jackson three-pointer and ended with his jump shot.
The Pointers led 51-42 with 1:30 left in the second half, but the Blugolds pieced together a 6-0 run to pull to within four points.

In the Kilpatrick corruption trial, the latest witness for the prosecution started out strong, but Thursday defense attorneys caught him in a lie.Bernard Parker III was looking like yet another in a recent string of compelling government witnesses until he ran into one teensy problem -- his own words."He admitted he lied under oath, so that's that," said Ferguson attorney Mike Rataj.If Parker's pants caught fire on the witness stand, there was plenty of rain falling to put it out as he hustled from the courthouse.At issue was an email Parker wrote to his bosses that said a top Kilpatrick appointee wanted a contribution, but Parker acknowledged that the request really came from Bobby Ferguson, who witnesses have said often acted like a high ranking official even though he didn't work for the city.Parker's admission promoted a heated exchange with Ferguson attorney Gerald Evelyn.EVELYN: Either you're lying to your bosses or you're lying to this jury.PARKER: I lied to my bosses.EVELYN: Why?PARKER: Because I feared Bobby and we were trying to raise money.EVELYN: So you're the type of person who will lie -- when there's an advantage for you?Rataj said Parker's lie undermined his credibility."He did not stand up under cross examination and that's the bottom line."Parker testified Wednesday that Ferguson used his influence with Kwame Kilpatrick to strong arm contractors. He said Ferguson acted illegally in forcing forms like Walbridge Aldinger to cut him in on their multi-million dollar city deals.Evelyn hammered Parker for taking a job with Ferguson even though he believed Ferguson was breaking the law.EVELYN: That didn't deter you from going to work for him in 2007.PARKER: I made a bad judgment.Still, Parker insisted that Ferguson essentially extorted contractors. While defense attorneys got worked up, Parker's grace under pressure led to one of the day's funnier exchanges.EVELYN: You're smiling.PARKER: I'm just a happy man.EVELYN: You're not supposed to be smiling.Rataj said nothing, well almost nothing, will stop defense attorneys from going after government witnesses like Parker."I'm a zealous advocate for my client in that I'm going to stick up for him and I'm going to continue to do that and no one's going to stop me. So that's that."What about the Mayans?"We all go down together. That's all I can say."Assuming the Mayans are wrong and the world doesn't end, we'll be back in court on Friday and then off for two weeks. That's a welcome respite for a trial that should've been wrapping up any day now, but promises to drag on to at least February.

This was my day to stay at home and rest up and Sean emailed me and told me what was going on and said for me not to come just to sit there for 5 or more hours as we both had been through this ritual before and we knew the outcome - steroids and a shot for pain and back to the facility again. So, I agreed to remain at home. The nurse from Harris Hosp called me to let me know when he got there and I am still waiting to hear an update which I know will come soon.
Anyway, please send your loving energies to surround Sean once again. I am intending that this Crohn's will go into permanent remission.
As always, thanking you all for your participation in our wonderful beautiful journey into life. We have truly grown to know that within every occurrence there is a purpose if we but look for it. So, here we are again looking for the purpose in this event of today.
Sweet love to you all,
Sean is back at the facility, that is all I know right now, but that is good news. Thank you all for your wonderful energies.

Would anyone actually recommend this career?

Cindy R in Dearborn, Michigan

I just returned to school and am in my first semester of a two-year vet tech program. I love animals so I thought vet tech would be a great fit, but so far, everything I've read online from people who are vet techs has been overwhelmingly negative. I'm starting to second-guess my decision. If the job is as horrible as everyone says it is, I don't want to waste my time and money on 2 more years of school. Any insight from someone experienced in the profession would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
KAT the Dog Lover in Long Beach, California
24 months ago
Cindy, everyone has their own experience, and many of the negative posts seem to originate from the environments with bad coworkers and poor management. Remember that most people are apt to voice their displeasure and the many with positive experiences have not chimed in here.
Clearly, not all work environments are reflected in these posts. Ask yourself this: if it's so awful, why do people stay in it? I'm sure they're quite capable of doing something else for a living.
It's true that this is a very physical job and you will be tired at the end of the day, but working with animals can be very rewarding for those who love caring for them. Explore the various animal-care industry job options (hospitals, clinics, private practices, nonprofits, universities, research, etc.), and decide for yourself.
No matter what, no one can take away your knowledge, so remember that your education an investment in yourself--a college degree is never a waste of time.
ErikaLVT in Enterprise, Alabama

Interesting question! I don't think that I would ever "recommend" this career - ONLY because for me, it is more of a "calling". It is such a deep seated, passionate part of my life that becoming a credentialed technician was just a natural progression.
CindyRVT in Henderson, Texas
5 months ago
Ask Erika and KAT have already pointed out, this really is a calling and whether it's right for you is a very personal decision. There are definitely those of us who love the profession and spend decades in it.
It's important to remember too that really happy people don't typically go online and share how excited they are about their profession (or their relationships), it's those people who are frustrated that tend to go online to rant and blow off steam. So the number of unhappy posts you see are going to be disproportionate to what actually occurs in "the real world". That isn't to say that their complaints aren't valid, but they have to be taken as experiences that can help you not make the same mistakes. For example, many of the people who rant online have chosen to stay in toxic situations for years. They have, in effect, given up their choice to find a better situation.
There are going to be bad bosses and bad situations in every profession or line of work. That's just the reality of living and working with people. We have to take responsibility for our own happiness and choose not to stay in those situations when we realize that they aren't likely to change. You are responsible for your own choices and that includes choosing the practice you will work in. Take that into account even when job hunting. Make sure the practice fits you as much as you fit their needs.
If you haven't already experienced working in a veterinary practice, I would strongly recommend that you get some experience either volunteering or working as a veterinary assistant before you put 2 years of time and tuition into your education. This is because it is very possible to love animals and want to help them yet hate the veterinary technology profession. So, you need to make sure this is the way that you want to help animals.

Simpson, yeah for sure. No problem, I already invited a friend of my own. And Siccolo I honestly can't, but literally everyone I know who has played it said it is way more fun so I'm ready to play it. Are you?
Posted 09/30/2013 7:10 AM
For every1 curious 'bout & the differences between H2H & roto, ESPN say it best here.
Also, here's a video for every1's viewing pleasure. Which baller(s) r u? Hahaha!
@ RipCity 14 thx man! :) I JUST sent u a PM w/ my buddy's email.
Posted 09/30/2013 1:32 PM
I still don't fully understand it but I didn't really understand Roto when I started but I picked it up quickly and finished second. I'm going to change it to H2H now hope you'll join Siccolo.
And guys, be active on message boards and stuff, it's always fun.
Posted 09/30/2013 2:30 PM
Posted 09/30/2013 8:15 PM
And one more thing, feel free to invite friends guys, we have eight players, ideally we should have 12, but 10 is good too, so invite a friend or too.
Posted 09/30/2013 10:49 PM
Yah 12 or more is the best it makes people earn their title.
I really think though that an auction draft is the fairest way to run a league. Everyone has the same amount of money and the same chance to get the Lebron's and Durant's of the world.
Posted 09/30/2013 11:53 PM
But auction draft isn't realistic. I'll randomize the order of the draft.
Posted 09/30/2013 11:57 PM
Posted 10/01/2013 11:36 AM
Why is an auction unrealistic they have auction drafts on ESPN and since everyone should be at the draft anyways it really is the fairest format.
130 players that is all is taken in a 10 team league if only the starters were drafted you have 20 starters still on waivers.
With 12 teams at least all the starters could get drafted.
Posted 10/01/2013 1:30 PM
I too think 12 teams is better but 10 isn't bad. And even for a live normal draft you have to be there. It's much easier.
Posted 10/01/2013 1:45 PM
Auctions drafts are really easy nominate bid next plus it involves a lot more strategy do I spend big on Lebron and Durant and then fill out my team with cheap players, do I go for balance, do I want lots of depth.
Posted 10/01/2013 3:05 PM
Posted 10/01/2013 4:10 PM
Yeah live snake draft. And we'll get atleast 10 teams and then decide. SO INVITE ATLEAST ONE FRIEND GUYS, please.
Posted 10/01/2013 4:34 PM
I invited my cousin not sure if he is going to play or not but I forwarded the email this afternoon
Posted 10/01/2013 6:33 PM
If he joins, please make sure he is actually active.
Posted 10/01/2013 8:41 PM
Of course nothing worse than leagues full of people not active.
Posted 10/01/2013 9:49 PM
Word. And general consensus, when should we hold the draft and what time EST? We can't have it on the 14th or 24th.
Posted 10/01/2013 10:06 PM
Posted 10/02/2013 2:13 AM
We can have it on any day except the 14th and 24th. So if anyone has a specific day when they are unable to make the draft please let me know so I can lock down a date.
Posted 10/06/2013 4:24 AM
Alright guys, I'm gonna set the date for the draft. 25th of this month (Friday) 10 PM EST.
That good with everyone?
Posted 10/07/2013 12:59 PM
That seems okay
Posted 10/10/2013 8:54 AM
Posted 10/10/2013 3:13 PM
Set up, it's head to head categories not points. Just waiting for everyone to okay the draft date.
Posted 10/13/2013 9:52 AM
Draft date changed, 19th of this month, 10pm EST. PLEASE CONFIRM. I can hardly set the date if half the people can't make it.
Posted 10/13/2013 10:11 PM
Posted 10/14/2013 6:49 AM
Nope, we have free slots. 4 more to be exact, always looking to add more people. Just message me your email id and I'll invite you.
Posted 10/14/2013 9:19 AM
new draft time is fine so I am assuming we only have 8 people so far which is terrible
Posted 10/14/2013 10:55 AM
Yep completely horrible. Nine if the new guy joins. I have asked all my friends multiple times, only one joined, the rest got cheesed at me.
Posted 10/14/2013 1:41 PM
Well 9 kills h2h
Posted 10/14/2013 1:52 PM
That's why I'm looking for one more. Still have time left, Cmeese I don't remember if I already invited your cousin, if you or anyone else has any friends who want to join, please feel free to invite them.
Posted 10/14/2013 1:55 PM
got maybe 1 more to ask
Posted 10/15/2013 12:16 AM
Posted 10/15/2013 6:00 AM
Blaser, we ARE playing ESPN and you don't need to have a yahoo address even for yahoo. Great to have you on board. Message me your email id.

So we drafting or not?
Posted 10/19/2013 9:55 PM
Posted 10/20/2013 10:08 AM
We need to figure out this league in a hurry
Posted 10/20/2013 6:32 PM
We are drafting, we have 10 players now. I am going to set the date for the 25th 10pm EST. PLEASE MESSAGE ME AND TELL ME IF THIS IS OKAY FOR YOU.
Posted 10/21/2013 1:27 AM
GUys my mistake, I mean the 24th 10pm EST. 27th is also a possible date. Once again, please message me either on this forum, or through the Fantasy League itself to let me know if the date is okay for you.
Posted 10/21/2013 12:35 PM
24th is fine
Posted 10/24/2013 6:57 PM
I take it we are not drafting tonight and since I cannot draft on the 27th I am out. It should not be this hard to get a league up and running.
Posted 10/24/2013 7:24 PM
Cmeese, it shouldn't my main problem right now is that people are not telling me when the draft date is convenient, you're one of two people who have. If the problem is the managers, it isn't. Team 11 and 12 were waiting on internet access, which they will have today and join, I already have a backup for team 9. Team 9 is btw Blaser on this Forum, Blaser if you read this, I have sent you numerous emails and messages, I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to replace you.
Cmeese come back, I'm just gonna set a draft and go ahead, I'll inform people, but if they don't show, not my fault.
Posted 10/25/2013 2:21 PM
You're trying too hard to make everyone happy. It's been my experience that you set a time & deal with it. If they can't make it, auto draft has been my best friend this year.
There's no way you'll make everyone happy.
Posted 10/25/2013 10:28 PM
I am sorry man but if people wont even get back to you to set up a draft then the league hardly seems like it is going to be much fun.
Posted 10/26/2013 11:26 AM
Okay draft date is set. 27th of this month. 2:30pm EST. Snake Draft. Order will be selected randomly one hour before. And like rtmike said, I have messaged you'll a bunch of times, and I'm giving a shout out 24 hours before. If you can't make it, there really isn't much I can do.
Cmeese, are you sure you won't be in, I'll give the spot to someone else if you're out.
Posted 10/26/2013 2:39 PM
Posted 10/27/2013 3:24 AM
Blazer Fanatic, we have 11 people, and I got a friend of mine and a couple other people who want a spot on the league. Now I know you only want a 10 person league, but I of course give my fellow message boarders the advantage, do you want to join a 12 person league? I'm not gonna cut it back to 10 people anymore because it would be unfair to the other members.
If you don't no problem, i'll give the spot to someone else.
Posted 10/27/2013 12:16 PM
Posted 10/27/2013 1:12 PM
Ya, no problem. I'm definitely out. ; )
12 people isn't about fairness, it about having scraps to pick from when injuries occur. There is less waiver wire movement and it's just not competitive enough for my liking. The pool of impact players is not 156 deep. But I'm sure y'all will have fun regardless.
Posted 10/27/2013 1:53 PM
I think the draft went well. I thought I'd have a great team but apparently I'm projected 7th. Yikes. And Siccolo you missed the draft. That's really sad.
Posted 10/27/2013 3:04 PM
?? I thought I got cut cause yall switched to Head To Head??
DAMN lol

A pipeline responsible for the largest oil spill on U.S. Soil is ready to carry oil once again...
Tesoro Corp. says it has received permission from federal regulators to restart a pipeline that ruptured and is responsible for the largest oil leak in state history.
More than 20,000 barrels of oil spilled into a North Dakota farm field northeast of Tioga in late September.
Tesoro announced the restart today.
The company says it has accepted a safety order from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration that sets conditions to restart the pipeline.
A farmer discovered the spill while harvesting a wheat field.
Tesoro says the damaged portion of the pipeline was removed and sent to an independent laboratory for analysis.
Federal regulators say a preliminary investigation shows a lightning strike might have caused the rupture.

Award-winning author Maggie Anton will speak about the research behind her best-selling Rashi's Daughters trilogy, set in the household of the great medieval Talmud scholar who had no sons, only daughters. Among the topics she discusses: What was life like for Jewish women in 11th century France? Were Rashi's daughters really learned? Did they really wear tefillin? Why should a 21st century Jew want to read about Rashi and his daughters anyway?
Presented by Maggie Anton at the 2010 AJL Convention in Seattle, WA.

Jamie Grace-Hold Me
Listen Now
On Air: Meridith Foster
Category: Housekeeping
I lay out everyone's clothes that they are going to wear the next day the night before. Everything down to the undies and shoes. That way in the morning we aren't spending time trying to pick out what to wear. I have baskets set up in the utility room for laundry. My soon to be 5 year old and 6 year old have been able to sort laundry since they were 2 :) One basket is for jeans, one for darks, one for lights and one for the bleach load. It makes it so much easier because I can just dump the load from the basket right int the washer throw a Tide POD in and go. No more spilling laundry soap or using too much or not enough.
When cleaning windows and mirrors use a page from the newspaper for the final wipe down. (Wear rubber gloves so that newsprint does not build up on your hands.) There is something in the newspaper that cleans well so that no streaks remain on the cleaned surface.
If you spray silicone and let it dry on your snow shovel the snow will not stick. This also works on lawn mower blades and other tools!
Save yourself some time and get your precious kiddo back to bed quicker after an unfortunate bed wetting accident. When you make your child's bed, put on a clean sheet, then a plastic sheet and then another clean fitted sheet. That way the next time an accident arises, it's a quick change and gets you all back to bed just a few minutes sooner.
I don't know about everyone else but our socks are always mismatched; you can find 5 different socks but not a pair. I have started using lingerie bags to keep each individual's socks together through the wash and it has saved a lot of time and frustration. This works for P.E. clothes and other items too! Each person has a different colored ribbon tied to their bag so we keep them separate.
This is my trick for keeping ALL the highly used areas of my home tidy and from having to do a housecleaning intervention at the end of each week or when I was growing up "Housekeeping Day - Saturday"! I grew to hate Saturdays because I always associated it with a day of major housekeeping tasks! After using an area and completing the normal steps of cleaning it up, - I simply spend five extra minutes to 'over clean' it . This maintains the area and when Saturday comes, I am ready to SHOP til' I drop instead of cleaning.
We live in a two story house - remembering old truck driving days. I always take a "load" up the stairs and if possible a "return" load downstairs. Never empty handed - saves time cleaning and trips up and down the stairs.
To remove pen, pencil, marker, or crayon from white (or light) colored walls - or even floors- use white toothpaste. Rub some onto the spot needing to be cleaned, wait a small amount of time. Using a moistened rag rub the spot until all is gone. I was a Navy wife for 9 years (& a mother of three very creative children) and I used this method to pass all of our housing inspections!
We recently purchased a front loading washer/dryer which works nicely - downfall, the seal in the front tends to 'trap' our children's socks and underwear (ages 3,5, and 7). To keep this from happening I purchased medium sized lingerie bags and put each child's underwear and socks in there own bag! 2 bonuses: already separated into who's is who AND they get clean instead of staying in the seal :)
I have found a great trick for when I boil water. I rub butter on the rim of the pot...this keeps the water from boiling over and making a huge mess. This is especially helpful when I'm boiling potatoes or pasta because I don't have a burnt mess on my stovetop that I have to scrub and scrape clean. It's wonderful.

Topanga Fire 20 Percent Contained - Burbank Blaze Out of Control! [1]
Low humidity along with calm winds is helping firefighters to gain the upper hand on the Topanga Fire, which as of early Friday evening has burned 21,000 acres. The blaze on the Los Angeles-Ventura county line was 20 percent contained, and fire officials are expecting 35 percent containment by day's end. All evacuation orders have been lifted. Two homes as well as three outbuildings, a garage and storage shed were lost. Battling the blaze are firefighters from the
The other fire is burning in the hills above
A smoke advisory from the South Coast Air Quality Management District was also extended Friday. Air in the San Fernando Valley has been classified as unhealthy, according to AQMD. Areas deemed unhealthy for sensitive individuals include: the Santa Clarita Valley, northwest coastal Los Angeles County, central Los Angeles, the west San Gabriel Valley, San Gorgonio Pass, east San Bernardino Valley and the San Bernardino Mountains. People with heart or lung disease, emphysema, asthma or chronic lung problems should minimize all outdoor activity.

Make some cash by combining your spring cleaning with a successful garage or tag sale with these tips from garage sale experts.
1) Sell on Saturday
Author and host of former PBS show Collect This! Aaron LaPedis is known as the " Garage Sale Millionaire." LaPedis says after more than two decades of success he has learned that Saturday is the day to host a successful garage sale.
"Some cities require a permit for sales held during the week and Sundays are reserved by many people for church services and family activities."
2) Get a team together
Good planning starts with getting a team of family and friends together to help the day of the sale.
"You'll need someone to go out early in the morning and put up all your signage and a couple of people to be ready to open and work the sale."
3) Check restrictions
Check your city regulations for any restrictions before planning your garage sale, says LaPedis. You can find out about local restrictions on garage sales by checking the PDF attached to this story or visiting here.
4) Start early
LaPedis says veteran garage sale buyers will be out early in the morning looking for signs so plan to start your sale "as soon as the sun is up."
5) Sell with your neighbors
Amy Barley is a Coldwell Banker realtor and mom of two. Ever year she helps plan and manage her large neighborhood's annual garage sale. Multifamily and neighborhood sales will draw more buyers and Barley says her neighborhood's is now so popular that "other developments contact me to make sure their sale does not conflict with ours."
6) Safety first
Barley says, "Safety is often overlooked at garage sales. Make sure you take cash only. Use a fanny pack for collecting money and giving change and go in your house and empty it a few times as you collect lots of money. Do not allow anyone in your home for any reason."
7.) Save your big ticket items for eBay or Craigslist
8) Lots of good signage is key to a successful sale
LaPedis makes up to 20 signs using large pieces of white foam board or cardboard which he puts out very early on the morning of the sale. He says to include your address and the cross street, and to specifiy if it is a multifamily sale and if you are offering popular sale items including children's toys and clothes, furniture and collectibles. At the entrances to your neighborhood, add arrows for buyers to follow to the sale.
9) Use Craigslist and social media to get out the word
List your sale for free on Craigslist, says LaPedis, and use your Facebook page to promote the sale and recruit friends to help you work the sale and sell their stuff as well. LaPedis says, "the more items you have to sell, the more people will stop to check out the sale."
You can also list your garage sale on the Cleveland Heights Patch calendar.
10) Price everything in advance and be willing to negotiate on everything
Barley says the most successful garage sales are those that price everything in advance. But remember that people will expect to bargain for less than the posted price.
LaPedis even says, "don't bother pricing any item under $15. Ask the buyer what they are willing to pay and you'll have more power and flexibility that way."
11) Don't sell anything unsafe or recalled
Don't sell anything that is potentially unsafe, including "drop-down" style cribs, says LaPedis. You can check the recalls.gov site that provides recall information from six government agencies.
12) Get them to stop and park
Put "big ticket" and popular items such as TVs at the front of the sale near the street says LaPedis to get buyers to "stop, park and shop."
13) Keep off the grass
Use tarps and tables instead.
14) Limit "holds"
Don't offer to hold items for a buyer "for more than 45 minutes, or have the buyer put enough money down that he or she is sure to come back," LaPedis says.
15) Offer free coffee or lemonade to get shoppers to linger longer.
16) Put out a power strip attached to an extension cord so you can demonstrate electronic items work to potential buyers.
17) Negotiate like a pro
LaPedis says if you let the buyer speak first and indicate what he or she is willing to pay for an item, you are far more likely to get more for it.
18) Display like a store
LaPedis says use your fence to hang clothes on if you don't have racks and group items such as toys or electronics together to make it easier for buyers to shop.
19) Use fanny packs with lots of change
Do not use cash boxes, says LaPedis. The people helping you at the sale should all have fanny packs with lots of change instead. "Assume every buyer will pay with a twenty dollar bill."
20) Stay firm before noon, then get generous to move items out
LaPedis says most buyers will arrive early so you can afford to be firmer with prices before noon but be more flexible in the afternoon so you have fewer items to haul away for donation at the end of the day. Unsold items can be donated locally to the Salvation Army.

text: Nissan is the biggest riser on this year's Best Global Green Brands, increasing 16 spots by continuing to push ahead with its electric, zero-emissions vehicle, the Nissan LEAF, and impressive work increasing its disclosure of policies, programs, and impacts. As local manufacturing of the Nissan LEAF gets underway in Europe and the United States, the story of the car is beginning to shift from a product with potential to one with visible commercial momentum, with 25,000 cars sold in the US and KBB naming it the Best Green Car of 2013. Despite the challenges of the past year—from consumer "range anxiety" to difficulty expanding charging stations beyond the US Pacific coast—the Nissan LEAF has had a positive impact on the Nissan brand. The automaker's challenge is one facing the entire auto industry: driving adoption. There is still a long way to go in terms of shifting consumer mindsets to embrace electric vehicles and building out an EV-supporting infrastructure across the globe, but higher sales, a continuously improving product (it was named the IIHS top safety pick) with a more affordable price tag, and initial returns on a $5 billion investment will ensure the Nissan LEAF's viability. Beyond electric vehicles, Nissan is also supporting its hybrid line-up with four new cars in the US and pushing on diesel products, as well. Committed to reducing the impact of its vehicles even further, Nissan plans to cut 15 percent of vehicle weight starting in 2017 with newly developed 1.2 gigapascal steel technology. This new technology will help make cars lighter, resulting in less fuel consumption and lower CO2 emissions. Adding to its zero-emission goals, Nissan has also joined forces with Daimler and Ford to develop a line of affordable fuel-cell cars that will roll out in 2017. Nissan learned a lot and absorbed a bit of criticism in 2012, but its brand stewards stayed focused and found a way to keep moving forward.

Truck route update
Northbound and D Street traffic can expect serious disruption
next month. Crews working on the truck route intend to
close the designated truck lane on state route 543 Pacific
Highway for the next twelve months. A month later, the
D Street intersection will be closed to allow construction
of an overpass and other improvements.
In other words, trucks and cars will need to share one northbound lane as they approach the border.
Starting Monday, October 2, crews will close the truck lane for one-third of a mile between H Street and D Street. This will allow crews to safely continue work next to the highway. During the closure crews will build a new overpass at D Street, build retaining walls, lower the highway, and relocate the truck lane.
"We've held off closing the truck lane for as long as possible," said Washington State Department of Transport (WSDOT) project engineer Chris Damitio. "We're at a point where we can no longer safely continue construction work next to the highway without closing the lane."
Drivers should prepare for delays and consider alternate routes. WSDOT recommends passenger vehicles use the Peace Arch border crossing on I-5 when possible to avoid delays and congestion. Damitio said crews would try to avoid blocking the road with trucks while they are held up by border slowdowns. The separate car and truck traffic lights at H Street would be used to alternate between the two types of traffic and trucks would be held back if the still-open truck lane north of D Street becomes backed up.
What happens next summer when both the car lanes and the truck lanes get backed up is anyone's guess, however.

Computer Science Tripos, Part III, and M.Phil in ACS Forms
Modules and assessment forms
Changing modules or the Option
- Up until 6 October 2014, M.Phil students may change their module selections in consultation with their Course Advisers. The Course Adviser will notify the Graduate Education Office of the change.
- After 6 October, students wanting to change a module must use the module change form and should consult their Course Adviser or Director of Studies first. You will also need to check with Graduate Education that the module you wish to change into is not already oversubscribed.
- Practical and reading group lecturers (for the 'P' and 'R' modules) usually issue coursework, team allocations and presentations schedules in Week 1. It is therefore unusual for a student to be permitted to change into one of these modules after the first week of term.
Any change of Option (Essay to Project, or Project to Essay) will likely result in quite a number of modules being dropped or added and should only be considered in consultation with the Course Adviser.

A Mesa man was caught downloading hundreds of images and videos sexually exploiting children.
The Arizona Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force identified a computer that was obtaining images and videos of young children engaged in sex acts. The computer was tracked to the 4800 block of East Hilton Avenue where police issued a search warrant.
Police said they found evidence and the owner of the computer, Daniel Ortega, admitted to downloading the images for more than two years. He also admitted to using search terms for child pornography while using a software installed on his home computer.
Police said Ortega's spouse is a school teacher and there are children in the home with him.
Ortega was booked into Fourth Avenue Jail on 10 counts of sexual exploitation of a minor.
