Two new No. 1 teams this week – Jordan's boys and Model's girls.
We're trying something a little different this week in that we're adding some commentary to each class. It's a little heavy on the boys side this week, but we'll balance it more next week when we get the routine down.
No. 1 Milton beat Wheeler 65-60 in a boys game on Saturday as Tevin Glass had 23 points and 12 rebounds for Milton. (See MDJ story.) Wheeler's Chuck Mitchell scored 30. Both players are their teams' top inside players. … Previous No. 5 Norcross was upset by unranked Stephenson 51-48 on Saturday. Is that score right? Stephenson is 5-16. … No. 2 Shiloh went 2-1 in a tournament in Florida and blew a four-point lead in the final 90 seconds in the defeat. … No. 3 Westlake needed two overtimes to beat Marcus Hunt-led North Clayton 75-75. … No. 8 Berkmar beat unranked Alpharetta 65-62 on Saturday when Brandon Thompson hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer. … No. 5 Mill Creek lost 59-39 to G.W. Carver of Montgomery, the No. 1-ranked team in Alabama's Class 6A. G.W. Carver also beat Shiloh 74-58 earlier this season. … Johnson-Savannah (17-4, 14-0) beat previous No. 8 Savannah 64-55 on Saturday to take control of Region 3. See Savannah Morning News story. Savannah (17-2) has suffered both of its losses to Johnson. … No. 7 Harrison beat middling South Cobb 89-81 on Saturday, avenging one of Harrison's five losses. Harrison is 8-0 since New Year's Day. .. No big changes in the girls rankings this week.
There are two new teams more in the ever-changing girls top 10. Warner Robins replaces Northside-Warner Robins after the Demons won their head-to-head matchup on Friday 45-43 on a last-second shot. … Jonesboro returns to the rankings at No. 9, taking advantage of previous No. 10 Osborne's 62-38 loss to Douglas County. … Also joining the rankings this week are Drew (replacing Oconee County in Class AAA) and Heard County (replacing East Hall in AA)
In the boys rankings, Woodland-Cartersville jumped five spots to No. 5 after beating previous No. 5 Chattahoochee 66-51 on Saturday in a Region 7 showdown. … Region 3, Div. B, leader Alcovy, which entered the rankings at No. 8 this week, has won 10 straight, including a 59-53 victory over Chamblee on Saturday. Chamblee had upset No. 2 Miller Grove the week before but suffered a pair of losses last week. The other was against No. 3 Southwest DeKalb. Douglas County (20-1) took a two-game lead in 15-team Region 5 by beating Osborne 106-89 this week and moved up two spots. Osborne (18-3, 9-2) dropped out of the rankings.
No. 6 Carrollton's boys had a wild ride this week. The Trojans beat previous No. 6 Troup 70-39 on Tuesday, avenging a defeat, lost to unranked Shaw 57-54 on Friday, then stunnded Gadsden City – ranked No. 7 in Alabama's highest classification – 69-54 on Saturday. … No. 7 North Hall won its 12th straight game with a 79-72 victory over East Hall, which had been ranked No. 10 in Class AA.
Class AA has a new No. 1 girls team for the third consecutive week as Model moves in to the top spot. Buford, which has been No. 1 twice this season only to lose the following week, lost to Wesleyan 60-49 on Saturday and fell to No. 3. Laney moves up from No. 4 to No. 2. … Region 6 has four teams in the top seven, and the race in Division A could be decided by two big games this week. No. 6 Decatur, in second place, travels to first-place Buford on Tuesday and then hosts No. 7 GAC, the third-place team, on Friday. Lovett, which is ranked No. 5, faces South Atlanta on Tuesday in a game that could determine the regular-season champion in Division B. …
Butler's boys upset previous No. 1 Greater Atlanta Christian 66-65 on Saturday in Augusta. Ronald Jones had 15 points, 14 rebounds and three blocked shots. … The new No. 1 team is Jordan, which avenged one of its two losses – to Manchester – with a 71-55 win on Friday. Jordan's losses are by one point (to Northside) and in overtime (to Manchester). … No. 4 Buford lost to unranked Wesleyan (13-8) of Class A 43-40 on Saturday. … No. 10 Laney dropped a few notches after losing to erratic Dublin 69-54.
No. 1 North Cobb Christian (21-0) beat Mount Paran Christian (16-4) 65-49 on Friday. There's not a team with a winning record standing in NCC's way of a 25-0 regular season. Mount Paran had upset previous No. 10 Greenforest Christian earlier in the week. … No. 5 Wilcox County beat No. 7 Lanier County 60-53 on Tuesday in a Region 2 crossover game. … Previous No. 6 Landmark Christian (15-2) lost to Class AAAAA McIntosh 46-44 on Saturday.

Todd, before all the uneducated posters, who know nothing about strength of schedule, playing the top teams around the country or even looking to find out why a 6th place team in their region is not ranked, I think these rankings are pretty much what should be. Good job, as you would say, it might not be perfect, but it's damn close.
January 29th, 2012
7:44 pm
Though Johnson has 2 more losses than Savannah. They have beaten SHS twice in region, which I would say makes them ranked higher. For the guy looking for respect for Pope, the are in 6th place in their own region. Wheeler and Miller Grove, though their records look unimpressive, they have played top notch teams from across the country and Ga., but only have 3 losses between them to Georgia teams (all currently ranked or ranked previous). So their rankings are justified IMO. Last their are only 10 spots for the top 10, sometimes teams that could be ranked, don't fit. There might not be much of a difference for teams egging around 11-15, to those ranked at the bottom of the top 10. The rankings are fine as they are, but if your team is not ranked and you have a beef, let your team show up tourney time and prove yourself. No need to roar now, last I saw there are 32 teams in each classification, not 10, huff and puff then.

Todd this is not correct….
"There's not a team with a winning record standing in NCC's way of a 25-0 regular season."
NCCS plays McCallie 2-7-2012. McCallie, 17-1, is ranked #1 in Division II in Tennessee.

Did you really leave walnut grove out of aaa's top 10 again? They beat Gainesville for the 2nd time then beat a good west hall team on west halls home floor by 30+. Their resume is more impressive than Monroe, Grady, allatoona, n hall, and drew. They will be ranked either 4 or 5 in the coaches poll tomorrow. Don't snub an obvious choice just for the sake of being different. It's unbecoming.

The Buford Athletics Booster conglomorate has recently adopted a new 'Slogan' for their programs. Students and faculty jointly chose the new slogan by an open, signed ballot system –
The new slogan, a surprise 'Write-In' winner was originally to be chosen from the following nominated candidates:
1. "NO! We will never 'Play up'!
2. "So what if our girls teams have five o'clock shadow"
3. "The recent allegations that we recruit our cheerleaders is a lie, (But a good idea!)
4. "Who needs Probsts' Alabama contacts, money talks louder"
5. "Pruitts' gone from Fitzgerald? Good, that leaves only Calhoun"
And by no means least,
"Bacon wrapped tenderloin and Split Florida Lobster Tail at the concession stands or bust!"
The clever write in winner, "The best that money can buy", is to be painted on all area water towers, inlayed in the foyer of the school lobby in two foot lettering with gemstones as closely resembling the school colors as possible, and installed in high intensity LED's on the underside of the Lear jet the budgetary council recently allocated funds for to alleviate the extreme discomfort all athletes have complained of on away games falling outside a thirty mile radius of the their Buford academic complex.
Congratulations to this forward thinking organization. Truly the undisputed leader in, and the guiding beacon of the future of Georgia Secondary School athletics

Todd, I would not call Dublin Boys erractic. They just don't match up well with East Laurens. I agree with you that right now they should not be ranked but neither should Laney. We drilled them by 15 in their place & that is hard to do. I think everybody on our side of the sub-region will beat Laney. (East Laurens, Bleckley Co. and Dodge Co.) Our region is going to raise some sand in the state tournament, mark my word.

I would have to agree with AAAbasketballknowitall. How do you leave out a Walnut Grove out of the top ten with a 19-3 record with impressive wins over Archer who was a elite 8 team from last year returning all starts twice (once in scrimmage by 20+ and during the regular season by 10+). Also beating power house Gainesville twice and two losses to a very talented Newton county team and the other loss to a county rival. Obviously whoever comes out with this poll does not have much knowledge about this years basketball teams and just rank based on schools history. Its a shame those kids who have worked hard don't get the credit they deserve.

The correct score to the westlake-north clayton was 75-73, i dont understand why NCHS cant get any recognition, we beat #9 lovejoy and held our own against #7 jonesboro .. we demand respect.. everyone thought that westlake was gonna bully us.. not even.. game was lost by luck, ball got stuck on an attempted dunk.. only reason.. go eagles
January 31st, 2012

Todd, I agree with your #1's and the fact that you have Alcovy finally in the top 10. However, get Monroe out of top ten in AAA and add Walnut Grove. Their resume is much more impressive. Also, start to give some respect to 2 AAAAA as they have five solid teams with little respect; Westlake, Newton, MLK, Langston Hughes, and Luella. After all their 6th seed at this point just beat a previously ranked Norcross. Wheeler is too young and erratic to be #4 at 10-8. Yes they play a national schedule but that doesn't mean you just place them at #4. Also, GAC may have the best coach in Georgia but they just lost to a solid but unranked AAA team in Butler, thus, #2 in AA may be a little high.
January 31st, 2012
10:19 am
Everyone who wants Monroe out of the top 10 are wrong. They are clearly the best team in AAA Albany, Ga this year and are ranked for a reason. The stars of Jr. forward 6″7 Mcgee and senior center 6″8 Gilbert will prove their belonging in the top 10. Also watch out come playoff time for a sleeping giant in Westover to wake up and play playoff basketball. Traditional top teams are hard to eliminate from the top rankings.

WACo is the only team with both boys and girls undefeated. Thing is South Ga,teams in the Atl area play tough out of state schedules. In fairness,still sad that many here didnt live anywhere near the school they play for.

I think if is time to separate the private schools, public schools and city schools. It is not fair that the public schools get to recruit from the AAU basketball leagues. Why wont Ga. Hig School look into the recruiting practices of public schools in the AAU league.

To former coach. Is it fair for private schools to offer scholarships just for a good athlete that wouldn't be considered if he couldn't play a lick. Is it fair to have foreign kids who transfer in but cant get in public schools. Stop looking at how to stop the moving and look at why they're moving.

Old-age mortality in Germany prior to and after reunification
AbstractRecent trends in German life expectancy show a considerable increase. Most of this increase has resulted from decreasing mortality at older ages. Patterns of oldest old mortality (ages 80+) differed significantly between men and women as well as between East and West Germany. While West German oldest old mortality decreased since the mid 1970s, comparable decreases in East Germany did not become evident until the late 1980s. Yet, the East German mortality decline accelerated after German reunification in 1990, particularly among East German females, attesting to the plasticity of human life expectancy and the importance of late life events. Medical care, individual economic resources and life-style factors are discussed as potential determinants of the decline in old age mortality in Germany. (AUTHORS)

@Sly, I understand that, what I am trying to say is have the title a little more self explanatory, like having the word SPOILER in the title. They've done so for other announcements and they can do so for this one. Thats all I am saying.

Guys, lets face it, we all know what post editing can achieve. This will look loads better when it hits screens.
And @MovieWeb, why do you guys post this. Again, people who haven't read the books, like me, find this rather spoiling. I mean the title says "epilouge" and all, but this is still a pretty huge spoiler than fans of the movies may not expect from the title.
dude they look WWWAAAAAYYYYYY older than they should everyone except hermione looks mid fortys to mid fifties! do the math ppl theyre 18 to 19 in their 7th year. plus 19 years later is about 37

I guess I'm missing something... as far as aging makeup, etc... these look excellent. This usually looks cheesy and obvious but I think they did a great job and it looks fairly realistic. Now I can agree with Dedpool on the fact that they might look a bit too old for the amount of time that should have passed.
This looks terrible.

This cost far, far more money. But also it required trampling on what is called the Bay Escarpment, a very unique ecological area with many unique species. But there's "zero tolerance" for filling wetlands, and there's no law against trampling more unique ecosystems, so they spent all the extra money and did far greater environmental damage -- because of the stupidity of the law. But that's the way the gov't works.

I'm not a number cruncher here but it seems that a passive bonus of +2% dodge is better than 10% reduced damage for 8 secs. every 2 minutes (assuming you hit it on CD). I think that the difference might increase on longer fights too. Of course dodge is a chance and you could have passed a black cat while walking under a ladder while also kicking up a pebble that somehow manages to break a mirror which causes you to stumble and step on a crack (a mirror shard also knocked over some salt). On that note I think that night elves are superior in looks to dwarfs when it comes to being a death knight (dwarves are good hunters and okay pallies /shrug).
I just tested it by creating two death knights, one human, the other a night elf. The human came up as 7.07% dodge chance. The night elf came up as 7.25%. Testing was done with no gear (they had the exact same gear anyway) and both had frost presence and Undying Resolve as their only buffs. Not anywhere near 2% but it did increase dodge (diminishing returns?).

The Raiders reportedly are about to jump in the mix for the services of veteran defensive lineman Cullen Jenkins, which makes sense given the player's connection to general manager Reggie McKenzie.
Jenkins was released last month by the Philadelphia Eagles, who opted not to pay him a $5 million roster bonus. Ever since, Jenkins has been a hot commodity among teams interested in adding the versatile lineman.
Jenkins, 32, already has visited the New York Giants and was to have visited the 49ers on Tuesday. He also has a visit lined up with the Seattle Seahawks, with the Raiders on the radar for today, according to NFL.com.
The Raiders figure to be in the market for at least one player capable of playing inside on the defensive line with the departure of Richard Seymour, Desmond Bryant a prospective free agent and Tommy Kelly a potential salary cap casualty.
Jenkins played for the Packers (2004-10) when McKenzie was part of that team's front office. He left for the Eagles in 2011 and started all 32 games the past two seasons.
Broncos Star pass rusher Von Miller said he's dedicating the season to his 6-year-old cousin who recently emerged from a coma after a car accident in West Texas that also injured his mother and 8-year-old brother.
The linebacker told the Associated Press that when the boy, Jeremiah Clark-Martinez, came out of his coma, he was asked a series of questions to test his memory and among the first things he said was that his cousin, Von Miller, played for the Broncos.
That inspired Miller to make his pledge, and to tweet: "You can post this where ever Denver broncos will win the Super Bowl" (in the 2013 season).
Vikings The team created another opening at its thinnest position by releasing veteran Michael Jenkins, clearing $3.25 million of space under the salary cap.
Jenkins played two seasons of the three-year contract he signed with the Vikings after the lockout ended in 2011. He was due a roster bonus of $2.425 million on March 16 and a base salary of $825,000 for 2013, so the move was hardly surprising.
Browns Ray Farmer, who spent the past seven seasons with Kansas City, was hired as assistant general manager.
The addition of Farmer led to Mike Lombardi's title being switched from vice president of player personnel to GM.
Bills Linebacker Shawne Merriman, a three-time Pro Bowl selection and 2005 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, announced on his website he intends to file retirement papers.
The decision comes a week before he was eligible to become a free agent, and after spending parts of the past three seasons in Buffalo.

Antarctic Item 035
I found this misshapen metal ring on a Ross Island hike. I'm guessing it's a can rim detached from lid and body. Its distressed, weathered, delicate state suggests that
it lay exposed to the elements for decades.
I found this misshapen metal ring on a Ross Island hike. I'm guessing it's a can rim detached from lid and body. Its distressed, weathered, delicate state suggests that
it lay exposed to the elements for decades.
Continuing with the circular theme: a long-discarded Planters Peanuts lid retrieved from Marble Point.
Incidentally, Mr. Peanut was created in 1916, the final year of Ernest Shackleton's epic Endurance expedition. Judging by his rendered style here, this Planters man has been languishing in Antarctica since around 1940. Another awesome relic from the Dry Valleys collection of Randall "Crunch" Noring. (Crunch… peanuts… but of course..!)
These washers were found by my McMurdo friend Sharona Thompson who has a keen eye and appreciation for wonderfully weathered material.
I'm excited about these for both shape and texture. For shape because circles are central to my imagery, from blowholes to portholes and ice holes to ozone holes. And for the ravaged surfaces as physical evidence of Antarctica's unforgiving elements. Thanks Sharona!
The subject of this 'sister image' to yesterday's post is whaling.
The first Antarctic whaling station was established in 1904 at South Georgia island. By the mid-20th century, several of the eight whale species that populate Antarctic waters had been hunted to the edge of extinction. They're now gradually recovering thanks to international regulation of commercial whaling in the Southern Ocean, though their numbers aren't nearly that of a hundred years ago.
At the other end of the world by contrast, whale hunting has been central to the Inupiat people's subsistence for over a millennium. I'm currently marveling over thewhalehunt.org, a unique photo-documentary of an Inupiat whale hunt in Barrow, Alaska. Its extraordinary approach to storytelling and brilliant interface was created by Jonathan Harris, with stunning photography by Andrew Moore. Not to be missed.
I create my sketchbook entries improvisationally, drawing on Antarctic impressions
and recollections as I go along. By this process I'm building a visual vocabulary with
which to create the Long View Project's sculptural pieces.
This particular composition codifies Antarctic tools, venesta shelving, and maps. My principal medium is cut paper, often reclaimed from old mail, packaging and scraps.
Today's sketchbook page imagines some of the large number of undiscovered species that Antarctica is home to. Scientists are hoping to reveal some of the mysteries of evolution through these future underwater discoveries, and I never tire of visually speculating on the nature and appearance of these life forms. It's a theme I'll be returning to often throughout my project.
There are no trees or bushes in Antarctica. But I see an autumn leaf in the shape of this crushed can from Marble Point.
This rusted, folded wad of perforated metal was given to me by Eddie, a McMurdo fireman. The delicate object looks and feels like a light little pillow in the hand, so I've resisted the initial impulse to open it up. I'll be keeping my collected artifacts as intact and unaltered as possible when working them into the artworks.
The items I collected and shipped home from Antarctica have arrived. I'm pretty excited to have this eclectic collection of treasures in hand and am in the process of cataloging them to keep track of what ends up where. I'll show some of these over the next few days before returning to the sketchbook pages, and will continue alternating between Antarctic items and the sketchbook throughout the project.
I'll debut the Antarctic collection with a personal favorite: a chain assembly tag from Marble Point, an established field camp in the Dry Valleys. As you'll see in the posts to come, most of my best stuff came from Marble Point courtesy of Crunch the station manager. Big thanks Crunch for your generosity!
In this sketch a silhouetted figure lurks by the letterpress in the Nimrod hut's cluttered interior. I'm playing shape off line to create illusions of space and fragmenting elements to suggest dimensionality. With these stylistic motifs I also intend to draw analogies between Cubism and the heroic age of polar exploration, both of which developed simultaneously, created sensations in their day, and used found material to facilitate their exploits.

Installation frustration
9 August 2007 at 6:40am
Have spent the better part of the last day trying to get silverstripe to install I'm inclined to go back to Mambo. I have limited technical knowledge and having failed to find any decent documentation on the steps involved in installing silverstripe am totally lost. The hosting company have assured me that the problems I'm encountering are related to silverstripe and since mambo installed without any problems I'm inclined to agree. I hope that someone can help…
I continuously receive the error: open_basedir restriction in effect
I don't have the knowledge or tools to implement the many hacks I have found within the forums to work around this problem and it seems to me that a product which differentiates itself from the rest in user friendliness shouldn't require such crude interventions. Help!

I think that smoother installation/operation under safe-mode is something that we should put a priority on in our next release.
Andrew - would you be able to switch your development environment to run in safe mode, so that we can more actively deal with these issues as they arise?
poohbear - we'll make a announcement on the site when these safe-mode issues have been resolved.

me and andy had this problem installing gguymotors.co.nz last night as well. I think safe mode is a pretty common problem so getting it fixed is important. poohbear try sames tip - removing lines 38-44 of main.php - the stuff about envFiles. That seems to fix my problems.

text: We're diving straight into the hills. All I see is taillights ahead of me on this one way highway. To my left, across and over a ravine, the headlights are stalled. the ambulance already left, the tow truck is just taking its time. Pieces of what used to be a vehicle litter the highway. The tow man has a long night ahead of him. In the ravine, a small house is nestled behind a tangle of trees and dried out shrubs. I don't know who lives there. But I wonder how many accidents they see. How many lost souls linger with them there in that ravine, caught between two directions. It must be lonely. I don't know why my mood is so dark tonight. The moon seems to be under the same stipulation. I almost forgot she was out tonight; she's hiding her visible half behind a veil of dark clouds. I think it will rain soon. Its hot outside. I hope it rains, I want to see the ground steam.

I'll be honest with you...I never did like design patterns. I never got on board with it and, instead, just coded away like I thought I was supposed to do. Now, I realize they're a bit of a necessary evil to learn, for the main reason just to be able to speak to other developers about how they did this or that. With that in mind, I thought it would be a good idea to actually start learning these things. To do that, I turn to a fairly popular book on the subject - Head First Design Patterns.

The Monoprice Dual Extrusion 3D Printer is a fun, versatile, and comparatively affordable machine for hobbyists who want to enter the emerging world of 3D printing.
For the D750, Nikon blends the old D610 and the new D810, for a camera that's likely better than one and lots cheaper than the other.
Debuting at $500, the Press is Solidoodle's new entry-level 3D printer.
Going further up the pricing scale, MakerBot's new two-color 3D printer is one of the most exciting products in its category.
Thanks to its bright images and minimal crosstalk, the Nvidia 3D Vision 2 glasses with Lightboost are the current best 3D solution for gaming and watching movies on the PC.
Many people will consider the $1,999 MakerBot Replicator out of reach. However, a $500 3D printer? Now we're talking. But is it any good?
It lacks high-flying hardware, but this 5.25-inch smartphone could appeal to those shopping for a big-screen phone.
LG's 60PN6900 may be the top-of the range plasma for the company but misses out on many features present in the LCD range.
Pricing not available
With familiar characters, drift-racing action, and good-looking graphics, Angry Birds Go! is a fun arcade racer, but repetitive gameplay and freemium limitations are regrettably part of the package.

The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 may be stealing headlines, but Nintendo's latest Mario effort might be the best game of the holidays.

WebRTC: Video telephony without a browser plugin
Data Channel
WebRTC can do more than just transfer media streams. The
data() function in Listing 14 creates a data channel for transmitting text messages that works like a WebSocket. Line 3 uses the
createDataChannel() method to open a channel for the current peer-to-peer connection in the peer object,
pc. The
ondatachannel event in line 5 occurs when a data channel is opened. The
config() function in line 11 defines the callback function that is triggered when a text message arrives, and the
send() method in line 14 sends messages over the existing connection.
Listing 14
Data Channel
01 function data(pc, opener) { 02 if (opener) { 03 config(pc.createDataChannel("work")); 04 } else { 05 pc.ondatachannel = function(evt) { 06 config(evt.channel); 07 } 08 } 09 } 10 11 function config(channel) { 12 channel.onmessage = function(evt) { 13 console.log(evt.data); 14 channel.send("received message"); 15 } 16 }
Chrome Can Do
The sample application for Firefox can be ported for the Google Chrome browser with little effort. To port the application to Chrome, just change the manufacturer prefix
moz to
webkit in the examples. The expressions you need to change could just as easily be outsourced into functions that call the appropriate function, including a manufacturer prefix for each browser. Note that the examples only work in Chrome when called via the HTTP protocol, such as http://localhost:6655/mediastream.html.
WebRTC can also connect multiple browsers. The topology of peer-to-peer connections is endless, but a computer quickly reaches its limits when asked to play multiple media streams. WebRTC brings native real-time communication to the browser. Two browsers are needed to build a peer-to-peer connection across the Internet. WebRTC also works around NAT or firewalls. With its data channel, WebRTC not only ensures a bidirectional exchange of application data but also transfers media streams.
The direct connection between browsers saves time and data traffic. This opens up opportunities for many new HTML5 applications to web developers – for example, video chats or distributed applications, such as a networked memory game.

Over the next few days, we will be sharing tips to help you stick to some of the most common New Year's resolutions that we make every year. Today we're sharing tips on how to get out of debt.
Do you want to take control of your debt in 2012? Many people face a financial crisis at some time in their lives because of personal or family illness, the loss of a job, or overspending. It can seem overwhelming, but debt can often be overcome.
There is no such thing as a quick and easy way to get out of debt. Turning to a business that offers help in solving debt problems may seem like a reasonable solution when your bills become unmanageable. But before you do business with any company, check it out with your state Attorney General, local consumer protection agency, and the Better Business Bureau.
The good news is that there are realistic steps that you can take to get your debt under control.Develop a Budget
Do a realistic assessment of how much money you take in, and how much money you spend. Start by listing your income from all sources, then, write down all your expenses, even those that seem insignificant. This will help you track your spending, identify necessary expenses, and prioritize the rest. The goal is to make sure you can make ends meet on the basics: housing, food, health care, insurance, and education.Contact Your Creditors
Contact your creditors immediately if you're having trouble making ends meet. Tell them why it's difficult for you, and try to work out a modified payment plan that reduces your payments to a more manageable level. Don't wait until your accounts have been turned over to a debt collector. At that point, your creditors have given up on you.Deal with Debt Collectors
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act is the federal law that dictates how and when a debt collector may contact you. A debt collector may not call you before 8 a.m., after 9 p.m., or while you're at work if the collector knows that your employer doesn't approve of the calls. Collectors may not harass you, lie, or use unfair practices when they try to collect a debt. And they must honor a written request from you to stop further contact.Manage Your Car and Home Loans
If you stop making payments, lenders can repossess your car or foreclose on your house.
By Felicia Chou, a program analyst in the Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery at the Environmental Protection Agency
'Tis the season to be gushing about the new electronic gadgets you've received for the holidays, and figure out what to do with your old ones. Sure, you could keep them in your closet or attic, waiting for the day VHS tapes are all the rage again, or when radio-sized phones are back in style. Maybe that old TV can be used as a giant paperweight. But there are plenty of better alternatives to put your unwanted electronics to use.
I've had this laptop since college and believe it or not, it still works. Well, besides the fact that the touchpad and keyboard aren't working; and I have to keep it plugged in because the battery is pretty much dead. If, like me, you don't want to part with your old computer just yet, see if you can upgrade the hardware or software to put it on par with your new gadgets. In my case, I would replace the battery and the keyboard, and plug in a new wireless mouse. Or, after clearing out your personal data (PDF), you can donate working electronics to those who need them.
The next best thing is to recycle your old gadgets, but before you start carting loads of electronics to your nearest electronics collection program or drop-off point, check if they're working with a third-party certified recycler. You're probably thinking, third-party what? Well, companies that recycle electronics can be certified by outside organizations (like R2 Solutions and eStewards) and regularly audited to make sure that your electronics will be managed safely. That way, you can rest assured that your old gadget is being recycled in a way that is protective of our health and the environment. Check out R2 Solutions and e-Stewards for a list of certified recyclers.
So, why shouldn't you just let your electronics sit at home and collect dust, or worse, get thrown away in the garbage?
Electronics are made of precious metals and materials, like gold, copper, and glass. If they're thrown away, all that precious material that required a lot of energy to mine and manufacture will go to waste. When you recycle your electronics, those precious materials can be used in other products, such as electric cars or watches. You'll also be preventing the pollution that would have been caused by having to mine and manufacture raw materials. In fact, recycling one million laptops saves enough energy to power over 3,000 US homes for a year.
So while you're having a blast trying out all the new features on your shiny new gadgets, just remember to put your old ones to good use. I, for one, will be looking forward to the new battery and keyboard to keep my beloved laptop working for as long as I can.

Gray wolf populations in the Great Lakes region have recovered and no longer require the protection of the Endangered Species Act. Wolves in Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin and in portions of adjoining states, will be dropped from the list of endangered and threatened wildlife and plants.
With more than 4,000 wolves thriving in the region, the program has surpassed its recovery goal, and the wolves have made a successful comeback. The wolves no longer need federal protection.

Frugalistas looking to snag a bargain on a massage or a fancy dinner at new restaurant can spend a lot of time browsing daily deal sites. While these sites provide the opportunity to try new businesses at a discounted price, shoppers need to be sure they read the fine print on their deals and understand the sites' terms of service agreements to avoid complications when they redeem their deal vouchers.
These tips will help you better understand the daily deal sites so you can shop safely and enjoy the deals you purchase.Check the expiration and black-out dates
Most daily deals have expiration dates. Plan accordingly so you use your voucher before the deal expires. Make sure you check for blackout dates too. Some of the popular vacation deals can only be redeemed during certain times of the year.Do your research
Spend five or ten minutes reading reviews of the product or service you're thinking about purchasing. If the company has a lot of bad reviews, you may want to skip the purchase, no matter how great the deal seems to be.Understand how you can use the deal
Some deals you can use more than once until the entire amount of the deal is gone, but other coupons you have to use all at once. In general, you can't combine a daily deal with another coupon or promotion. Read the conditions of your specific deal before you buy. If you've read the fine print, but still don't understand everything, ask questions before you buy. Many of the daily deal sites have a frequently asked questions section or an area of the site where they handle questions about specific deals.Verify which locations accept your voucher
Some deals for chains are only valid at certain stores. Check to make sure the location closest to you is one of the participating stores or else you might have to go out of your way to use the deal.Know when your credit card will be charged
Some sites won't charge you until after a certain number of deals have been purchased; other sites will charge you immediately or at the close of a business day. After you purchase a deal, keep an eye on your credit card statement to make sure you are charged correctly.Check the site's refund policy
Some sites will refund your money if you are disappointed in a deal. Others will refund your money if a merchant goes out of business before your deal's expiration date. Some won't refund your money at all. Make sure you understand and are comfortable with a site's refund rules before you make a purchase.Know whom to contact with problems
In most cases, the daily deal sites can't help you solve problems with the company you bought the deal from. You will need to work with the company directly. If you have an issue, stay calm and state exactly what happened and how you would like the situation to be resolved. You can use the tips from the USA.gov sample complaint letter to help fix the problem.
If you missed the deadline to file your taxes, you should file them as soon as possible.
Filing a past due return may not be as difficult as you think and you should file regardless of whether or not you can make the full payment. These steps can help you avoid owing money on next year's return. Depending on the circumstances, people who file late may qualify for a payment plan.
Find answers to common questions about filing past due taxes.
Today marks the winter solstice, officially beginning the winter season in the United States and all of the northern hemisphere.
Solstices are the two dates during the year where the Earth's position in its orbit and on its axis is most directly tilted toward or away from the Sun.
The winter solstice is when the Earth is tilted away from the Sun, creating the shortest day of the year. Today also marks the first day of summer in the southern hemisphere, known as the summer solstice.
Starting tomorrow, there will be a little bit more sunlight each day, until we reach the summer solstice in June and the process reverses itself.

We all know that the holiday season is peak travel time. Although airports will be crowded, that doesn't have to ruin your holiday travel experience. Whether you are packing your bags for the sunny beaches of the Caribbean or headed to the snowy slopes of Switzerland, we hope you will take advantage of the following tips to help make your holiday travels safe, smooth, and stress-free.Enroll in STEP
Record your travel plans with the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP), a free online service that allows us to better assist you if there is a family emergency in the United States or a crisis where you are traveling. You'll also receive updated travel information for countries you plan to visit. In accordance with the Privacy Act, information on your welfare and whereabouts will not be released to others without your express authorization.Apply early for your passport
Did you know that a U.S. passport book or passport card is now required for land and sea travel to Mexico and the Caribbean? If you do not have a passport and you plan to travel outside of the United States this holiday season, apply for your passport now. Our current commitment for passport processing time is four to six weeks for routine service and two to three weeks for expedited service. There are 26 passport agencies and more than 8,800 passport acceptance facilities across the United States. Passport application forms are available on our website.Sign your passport and fill in the emergency information
Make sure you have a signed, valid passport, and a visa, if required, and fill in the emergency information page of your passport. Most passports are valid for ten years. Write the contact information in pencil so you can change it as needed over time.Leave copies of itinerary, passport data page, and credit card
Sure, you've enrolled in STEP so that your family and the State Department can contact you in an emergency, but you should also leave copies of your itinerary, passport data page and visas with family or friends at home. Leave a copy of your credit card too; in an emergency, the credit card company can help your family locate you.Check your overseas medical insurance coverage
Ask your medical insurance company if your policy applies overseas, and if it covers emergency expenses such as medical evacuation. If it does not, consider supplemental insurance. Medical treatment and evacuations can cost thousands of dollars – some countries won't allow you in through customs unless you can show proof of medical insurance!Familiarize yourself with local conditions and laws
While in a foreign country, you are subject to its laws. Our website has useful safety and other information about the countries you will visit. You can also download the Smart Traveler iPhone app to have the country information at your fingertips.Find the closest U.S. embassy or consulate
Take a moment to locate the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate in your destination country. This can come in handy if you need the assistance of a consular officer.Take precautions to avoid being a target of crime
Practice the same safety tips you would in any unfamiliar place: do not wear clothing or jewelry that would attract attention and do not carry excessive amounts of money; do not leave unattended luggage in public areas; do not accept packages from strangers; and do not travel with anything you'd hate to lose.Contact us in an emergency
We are here to help you. Consular personnel at U.S. Embassies and Consulates abroad and in the United States are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to provide emergency assistance to U.S. citizens. Contact information for U.S. Embassies and Consulates appears on our website, or you can call the Office of Overseas Citizen Services for assistance with emergencies at 1-888-407-4747 (if calling from the U.S. or Canada), or 202-501-4444 (if calling from overseas).
From the Bureau of Consular Affairs to you, we wish you good cheer this holiday season and safe travels!

Shopping online is more prevalent during the holiday season than most any other time of year. While you are trying to avoid the crowds, make sure to stay aware of the dangers of online shopping. Scammers and cyber criminals know how to confuse and trick shoppers into giving them valuable financial information all while you think you're simply buying a great gift. The FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) offers helpful tips for avoiding an online shopping disaster:

On December 17, 1903, brothers Orville and Wilbur Wright made the first successful flight in a heavier than air, mechanically propelled airplane.
After trying for several years for a successful flight, the brothers from Dayton, Ohio finally achieved their goal in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. The first flight, flown by Orville Wright, lasted 12 seconds for a span of 120 feet. For the first time, a powered flying machine had taken off from level ground, traveled through the air, and landed under the control of its pilot.
Four successful flights took place that day, each one gaining length on the previous, with the final one flying 852 feet for 59 seconds.
Congress marks every December 17th as Wright Brothers Day to commemorate their historic first flight in Kitty Hawk.
The U.S. Department of State runs the Diversity Visa Lottery, sometimes called the green card lottery. The Diversity Visa Lottery program makes up to 55,000 diversity visas available annually.

Distracted driving is a dangerous and common practice —and it's becoming an even bigger problem on the nation's roads as more drivers are text messaging while driving.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the percentage of drivers who text messaged or manipulated their mobile devices while driving went up significantly, from 0.6 percent in 2009 to 0.9 percent to 2010. The latest federal figures show more than 3,000 people died in car accidents in 2010 because of drivers who were texting, using a phone or were distracted by something else.Texting and Driving Can Be a Lethal Combination
Distractions behind the wheel include eating, talking to other passengers, or changing the radio, but there is one that is especially dangerous: reading or writing text messages. Doing this increases the risk of an accident by 2,300 percent.
But you don't have to be typing away to be at risk of having or causing an accident:
Habits can be hard to break, but these tips can help you get started:
Car accidents are the leading cause of death for teens in the United States. In fact, 16 percent of young drivers involved in fatal accidents were driving distracted.
There are several things parents or guardians can do to help reduce the risk of distracted driving in the family. First, set the example by refusing to drive distracted. In addition, you should:
You can get through the airport security line faster by traveling with unwrapped gifts and following the 3-1-1 rule when carrying on liquids, including liquid food items like cranberry sauce and gravy. You can also use the My TSA app or mobile website if you're at the airport and need last minute information about what you can and can't bring through security.

Scientists are working to discover the "god particle" — an element some people think is the key to figuring out how we came to exist in the universe.
Officially called the Higgs boson, the "god particle" remains a bit of a scientific mystery. It is the only undiscovered part of the Standard Model of physics, which describes the basic building blocks of all matter in the universe.
Two recent experiments have brought us closer to identifying the "god particle." In one experiment, scientists smash together protons, small positively charged parts of an atom, at near light speed using an instrument called the Large Hadron Collider. They are hoping to recreate the nanoseconds that happened after the Big Bang in hopes of learning more about this particle.
Results of the recent experiments are far from conclusive, but many particle scientists believe they may be on the right track.
Yesterday, the National Transportation Safety Board unanimously voted to ban the use of portable electronic devices while driving, except in emergency situations, for all drivers. The National Transportation Safety Board can make recommendations, but cannot pass laws. Each state is responsible for passing its own laws about distracted driving.
Nine states, the District of Columbia, and the Virgin Islands already prohibit all drivers from using handheld cell phones while driving. Find our if your state has a distracted driving law.
The holiday season includes many opportunities to reduce waste, recycle, and reuse items. Think about the durability of a product before you buy it as a gift. Cheaper, less durable items often wear out quickly, creating waste and costing you money. If you plan to send greeting cards, consider purchasing ones that are made of recycled paper, or save postage costs and reduce waste by sending electronic greetings. Consider these additional ideas to reduce waste, save money, and help the environment.

Yes, yes it does. Magic Mike does objectify men. About time I think. You know I'm all for equality of the sexes.
If you have a problem then call the police.
But we all know they're just a bunch of cowboys.
Or maybe send the sexism intellectualists.
Except we all know how heated they get. So heated they can't keep their clothes on.
One guy just had to cool down.
It was so hot they had to bring in the fire brigade.
The clean up took ages, probably because someone kept taking off with the broom.
So, the only solution was to call in the US Army.
That's my review of Magic Mike. It could've done with less speaking. Even my kitchen table could've written a better script. And there just wasn't enough dancing. I haven't laughed so much in ages. It's a must see movie. Five stars for the chests.
Have you seen it?

It's hard to pinpoint exactly what took place in the heads of the girls on the Superior volleyball team. Even head coach Kelsea Blevins can't exactly figure out what is driving her Wildcats team this season.
Whatever it is, it's working out well, as Class C-2 No. 9 Superior is off to an 8-0 start with wins over Class C-1 No. 10 Fillmore Central (6-1), Sutton (4-3) and Doniphan-Trumbull (7-4).
Blevins said she has a dedicated group of players who worked hard in the offseason. They worked out four times each week and recorded 90 percent attendance.
And even since the season and classes have started, the core group of girls on the Superior team have shown up to the gym at 7 a.m. three times a week for workouts — even when their coach isn't there.

The sky hadn't turned black yet, but the sun had already descended by the time we found ourselves serenely seated on the cool cement that bordered the empty pond at the Carabao Park. What the sun did leave, however, was an allusion of stars there and there, all pristinely set against a deep mauve sky. We had our feet sprawled in front of us as we stared vacantly at the vehicles going in and out of the campus gate, like blood in and out of a heart. The lamp posts that lined the nearby street blanketed us with its incandescence. For a short-lived moment, a car's headlights sent a diaphanous glare to where we were and your eyes momentarily glimmered.
I was the one who broke the pensive silence. "Thank you for being with me through this difficult time—probably the lowest point of my life." I looked at you and then stared back at the continuing influx of cars. I knew I sounded exhausted, but I was probably more exhausted than what my voice had allowed. "I know I'll get better and I'll move on eventually. By then, all of the things we've been talking about for the past weeks would barely matter. In the future, we may talk less and less; see each other more seldom, but I want you to know that this, this time—all that we have and are sharing now—we'll always have this. Always."
I was feeling rather sentimental and all together mushy which I must admit were the only prominent and consistent emotions my feeble mind fostered during the past weeks before that afternoon. And after all the times I've disclosed my sentiments to you, you had maintained a rather unflustered and almost comical composure, something I had admired genuinely if only for the fact that it always succeeded in pulling me to rational thinking. So one would surely understand my surprise when I looked at you and saw your eyes brimming tears that threatened to roll down.
You replied, "I also want to thank you, for the time, the trust and confidence. And, of course, the friendship." Then your tears surrendered to gravity.
The sky had finally succumbed to darkness but this was obscure to me. In a profound sense, we were stars that night, embedded in the darkness, searing it with the brightness of the friendship we've realized.
Thank you for always reminding me that I am a published writer, that I deserve more than what I usually settle for, that I look handsome, and that I have great potential in most things. Thank you for constantly helping me refine my taste in literature and music, and teaching me, by example, to be comfortable in my own skin. But most of all, I'd like to thank you for showing me what a great friend is which you've done so by just living.
I would like to think that in my own way, vain as I may be, I had given your life an added pizzazz because you sure have done the same and so much more. I love you, dear heart. Happy birthday, Nics! :)

ST. CROIX COUNTY, Wis. (WTAQ) - A 40-year-old man has pleaded not guilty to firing almost 2 dozen shots at his mother's house, because he saw clowns attacking the place.
Archie Stone entered pleas Monday in St. Croix County to 2 felony counts of reckless endangerment. He's also charged with a misdemeanor count of shooting a firearm within 100 yards of a building.
The shootings occurred July 9th at the home of Stone's mother in Roberts, close to the Wisconsin-Minnesota border. Prosecutors quoted Stone's father as saying the man was hallucinating in the days before the shootings.
His parents are divorced – and when they arrived at the mother's house, authorities said Stone first shot at a car, and then into the walls and ceilings of the home.
Sheriff's deputies said Stone did not follow their orders when they tried to arrest, but they captured him after he fell. No one was injured in the incident. Stone now lives in St. Paul. He's due back in court September 16th for a pre-trial hearing.

All-American point guard Skylar Diggins did all she could to keep the Irish (36-4) in the game, scoring 20 points. But senior Natalie Novosel had just five points, going 0 for 11 from the field. Devereaux Peters, also playing in her final game, was saddled with foul trouble because of Griner. She scored seven points.
Diggins "played a great game," McGraw said. "She's just a big-time player and she didn't get a lot of help today."

Like Griner, Diggins has pledged to return for her senior year — both could join the WNBA draft — for a third run at the title.
Notre Dame had an early 9-8 lead before Baylor took over with a 12-2 spurt. The Irish were down by 14 in the first half before cutting their deficit to 34-28 at the break. They got as close as 42-39 and had the ball, but Griner asserted herself, scoring nine of the next 19 points for Baylor to seal the victory.
"They went on a run there," Diggins said. "I just remember we cut it down to three and they went on a run. I saw 10, 12, 14, 16, 19. We couldn't get rebounds when they missed shots."
Odyssey Sims added 19 points and Destiny Williams had 12 for the Lady Bears, who outrebounded Notre Dame 46-27 and now have the third unbeaten season in women's basketball in the last four years. UConn, which has gone undefeated four times, did it in 2009 and 2010. Texas and Tennessee also have unbeaten seasons.
Baylor's victory also gave President Barack Obama some bragging rights. He correctly picked Baylor to beat Notre Dame in the title game.
With 1:04 left and the game well in hand, Mulkey took out Griner and the two shared a long hug. The fiery coach then went down the bench and hugged each of her players while holding back tears.
"I'm just so happy," Mulkey said. "That old saying, 'you're so happy you cry.' I can't quit crying.'"
Mulkey, who did her net cutting with daughter Mackenzie — a freshman on the team — and son Kramer, has now won a title as a player (at Louisiana Tech), an Olympic gold medal (in 1984) and two titles as a coach. Only five women's coaches have more than one championship at the top level of NCAA competition.
Mulkey has downplayed the 40 wins, noting that her former coach and mentor at Louisiana Tech Leon Barmore won 40 games in 1980. That was before women's basketball was governed by the NCAA, which didn't begin keeping records until the 1982 season.
It was the second meeting between the teams this season. Baylor also won the first one, by 13 in Waco on Nov. 17. That win gave the Lady Bears the preseason WNIT title.
As usual, Griner put on a show in warm-ups, thrilling the crowd with a series of impressive dunks — including a one-handed throw down, a double-pump slam and another in which she hung on rim. She dunked twice in the tournament, matching Candace Parker for most dunks by a woman in NCAA tournament play and during a college career (seven).
She couldn't catch one against the Irish.
The Lady Bears had a strong cheering section that included Griffin — dancing in his seat at the end of the game — and country music star Trace Adkins. He was a freshman walk-on football player at Louisiana Tech in the early 1980s when Mulkey was a senior there.
Notre Dame had its own star fan in former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who earned a graduate degree at the school. The Irish were wearing their green uniforms for the first time since last season's title loss.
It didn't help. On this night, nothing could stop Griner.

I have no idea where to begin. I'm not sure how to start over. Do I? Do I hold on to this silly hope that I have held on to for months, or do I let it go? Is there a chance?
I sleep with one every night. Usually two. Maybe more if it has been a rough day, and I need some company.
Maybe I'm just not trying hard enough. I should try harder. I should be better at this than I am.

You know what isn't fair? The guilt I feel because of someone else. I've spent years pushing forward, trying so very hard not to look back. All it takes is an article, or the mention of something similar, and it hits me. I feel guilty. I feel ashamed. I feel lost, and helpless. I have a life long membership to a group I will never be able to get out of. I thought I would be fine. I don't need to talk about it, or think about it. The only problem with that is… The past has this funny way of catching up. I hate the feeling that by remembering I've lost, but by trying to forget, maybe I lose more.
And empty. And sad. And lonely. I don't like this feeling. I just don't like it.
