When our house was built the water lines had not extended to our area. We had a fresh water cistern poured. In later years when we got city water we cut a hole in the cistern and made it into a gun room / tornado shelter.
With all the stealing going on I decided to build a steel door for the room.
The door frame is 2"x1/4" angle ancored into the concrete. The door is 10ga framed with 2"x1/8" sq tube. (Left over from the rig bed we are building) I built the latching mec. like some of the powder magazines we used to have. The hinges are 1" sch40 pipe with 3/4" sch40 inside. The lock is from ACE Hardware. It is supposed to be bolt cutter proof.

That lock may be resistant to bolt cutters but it can be easily opened without a key. In the body shop indsusty there is a tool called a slide hammer that is used for rough shaping metal and it come with a screw atachment that is screwed into holes in sheetmetal to pull a dent. If the screw is threaded into the key hole of any lock that acepts a key and yanked on the cylinder comes out and the lock can be opened. I have opened a spare tire lock on a blazer that we had but did'ht have the key for and if you pay atention to CSI they sometimes use them to open car trunks. If you go to www.autobodytoolmart.com and search "slide hammer" or "morgan knocker" you will find the tool I am refering to.

I didn't know about pulling the cylinder in a lock, but I've built a couple of smaller size gun safes and I designed them where a person can't get a drill (or slide hammer) to the keyway. It doesn't make them 100% burgular proof, but it adds a little more security.Jim
You are probley right. It was the best lock I could find at the time. I do not think the crack heads around here know what a slide hammer is or maybe it will slow them down enough for me to catch them.

For one CSI is TV and TV is seldom correct.
They plagiarize things to make then believable.
That said the lock mentioned can be opened with a pick and if the person picking the lock knows what they are doing it can be opened in about a minute or two.
The BS of ten second lock picks is all Hollywood. Yes you get lucky from time to time but any good home lock will take some time to pick.
On top of the fact that auto lock are just about the worst quality lock on the market. A standard schlege or kwickset is by far higher quality then almost any auto lock.
Yes Auto lock can be popped with a dent puller but try that with a good pad lock and all you will do is destroy the key slot. The lock will be locked but you will never get a key in it ever again.
The simple answer is a criminal is not going to waste his time bringing special tools with then to rob your house. They can't afford to be caught with burglary tools. So if some one was to break into your home and wanted to get into that gun room a large hammer and chisel is all thats needed smack that lock a couple of time and it will open. The shackle can only take so much it will fail eventually.
So build a shield around the lock that prevents bolt cutters and hammers from getting a good bite on the lock that will deter most thieves.

Gun Door
But if you really want to keep your valuables safe it would be best to devise some way to hinder the lock it's self from being easily accessed to by thieves and their commonly used tools mentioned then you would have even more time to catch the thief who tries to get in.
It is sad when you have to lock your self out in tempting to keep things from walking off
By the way nice job on the door!

CrazyHorse: in regards to your comment about locking yourself out I think all guns should have locks on them so that unauthorized people don't use them.
Finnney great job on the door.
your door looks good.

- tactics relying overly on corner (exploits) to score
- risky tactics relying on the boost that comes with superb morale across the board, e.g. boost of the dribbling success of a single inside forward/winger
- tactics that employ risky positioning play, such as the full backs pushing forward all the time regardless of opposition and scoreline, and the player never adapting to anything
etc. might not be as effective anymore, as corners, both extreme ends of the morale scale and a bug that caused the AI teams to not properly react to a scoreline are changed and fixed respectively. And that is it. The game has never been about babysitting your players at all times via talks if you didn't want it to, nor is the visual part of the engine merely an estimate representation of what is being calculated, no matter how often everything is being theorized by someone, and then picked up as fact by a dozen.

As a college student in Norfolk, Doug Downer used to attend TGIF events on the waterfront, listening to great music and meeting those living around him. Decades later, while living in Herndon, serving as vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, Downer had an idea to recapture the fun and magic of those events.
"I felt like we needed to have something like that around here, but there was no logical place to do it," he said. "When the town built the new municipal center, they built an open green area and a stage for concerts for the Herndon Festival. When I saw those plans, I immediately thought it would be the perfect place to do it."
In 1995, the first Friday Night Live was held, and over the last 18 years, the Herndon concert series has been a huge success, attracting thousands of people each Friday
"It started as a low-key event and has really grown from there," Downer said. "Over 18 years, we have tried all types of things and fallen into a formula that works for us. What we do is play music that people like and we know if they like it or not by whether they come."
With the help of Pat Barton, president of Party DC Events, Downer has been able to offer a very popular lineup of musicians year after year.
"We try to bring in the highest quality acts that we can considering we don't charge," he said. "We bring a lot of bands into the area that don't get to play a lot here."
Friday Night Live offers a family-friendly, neighborhood atmosphere, with people bringing blankets and picnic baskets. Last year, a craft beer of the month was introduced and proved to be very popular, so that will return. There are plenty of other food and beverage choices as well.
"On a typical night, we get 2,000 to 3,000 people," Downer said. "We have a real cool grass green space specifically built for concerts. It is weather dependent, but we try not to cancel, unless we get rained on hard enough so we can't do it."
This year's series kicks off on May 4 with Laura Lea and Tripp Fabulous, a hard-hitting, female-fronted band based out of Philadelphia with an array of original and cover songs.
Drop Dead Sexy and South Bay are up next on May 11, followed by Delaware-based rockers Love Seed Mama Jump on May 18, and the '80s tribute band The Reagan Years on May 25.
"We've been doing this long enough now that we have bands that play year after year," Downer said. "We bring back popular bands and we always try to bring in some new ones."
On Aug. 3, the Richmond, Va.-based Jimmy Buffett tribute band, B2B will be hitting the Herndon stage for its eighth-straight year.
"Our feeling is that it's definitely the most popular outdoor concert series in this area for free. It's been very successful and works," said Gary Snead, lead singer of B2B. "We try to put on a high energy performance that delivers the essence of a Jimmy Buffett concert with faithful interpretations of his music, without resorting to costumes or props attempting to mimic his shows."
The band looks forward to returning every year to celebrate the summer with "our most loyal fan base in the entire mid-Atlantic."
"In our second year, a storm brought a deluge that soaked the sound company's mixing board, and they pulled the plug because of equipment damage," Snead said. "The audience was so cool, and so much wanted to keep going, that we pulled our own PA from our trailer, set it up in under an hour, and finished the show, to the crowd's delight."
Local rock band JunkFood will be playing on June 22, returning for the ninth time.
"JunkFood is all about crowd interaction, fun and forgetting about the real world for a few hours," said the band's frontman, Bart Harris. "It's always a relaxing fun gig and the honesty of the crowd is great. There always seems to be a diverse crowd there too and it's refreshing. It's like playing in your best friend's backyard."
A longtime favorite to the series is party cover band Gonzo's Nose, back for a HFNL-record 14th time. The band has a massive play list of hundreds of songs and tailors the Herndon show to upbeat and danceable songs, which generally means a mix of '80s hits together with more recent music, including songs that are on the charts right now.
"We love Friday Night Live and have looked forward to it each of the 14 years we've played it," said frontman Steven Spishak. "There's nothing like it in the area: we start playing while the sun is up, and the lawn is filled with kids playing with their parents. As the sun goes down, the crowd gets closer to the stage and the glow sticks come out."
Money for the free concerts comes from more than 40 corporate sponsors, with the Volkswagen Group of America serving as title sponsor.
All events begin at approximately 6:30 p.m. For a complete schedule, visit http://www.herndonrocks.com/schedule.php.

LENOX — Southwest Valley spoiled Lenox's homecoming here Friday night, as the Timberwolves ran all over the Tigers' defense, and played hard, physical defense in a 47-16 win.
Southwest Valley held Lenox below 200 yards of total offense, and kept the Tiger rushing attack in check at just 158 yards — most of which came late in the game.
"I tell you what, our defense really bowed its neck tonight and played physical and played assignment football," Southwest Valley head coach Kent Bass said. "We're consistently getting better every week, and I think this was our best defensive effort we've had this year."
The Timberwolves scored just 2:30 into the ballgame when Jordan Stuart found receiver Kallan Schmelzer wide open in the end zone for an 18-yard touchdown score. Schmelzer made a diving catch in the end zone.
But, from that point on, it was Southwest Valley's rushing attack that did the damage.
The Timberwolves racked up 369 rushing yards for the game, led by Tyler Bissell's 165 yards and four touchdowns. Zach Barton added 77 yards, while Gunnar McCuen ran for 67 yards and Stuart ran for 58.
"Tyler Bissell had a huge night tonight," Bass said. "Really, all three backs — Gunnar McCuen and Zach Barton — they run with a purpose. That's what I love about them. They don't shy away from contact, but they also do a great job of running to daylight and exploding through the hole."
And that mentality of not shying away from contact was on full display Friday night, as the Southwest Valley runners trucked through Lenox defenders on multiple occasions.
Bass and Lenox head coach Allen Dukes agreed going into Friday's game that one of the biggest keys would be the play on the lines, and which team could gain an advantage there.
"They controlled both sides of the line," Dukes said. "That's what we needed to do to have success."
Lenox was also hurt by three turnovers, which Southwest Valley turned into 14 points.
"They're a good ball team, but we killed ourselves," Dukes said. "We turned the ball over and made a lot of stupid mistakes at crucial times. They played a hell of a ballgame, simple as that."
For Lenox, Dustyn Rauch ran the ball 18 times for 107 yards and one touchdown with 6:57 left in the game. Quarterback Dustin Gordon picked up the other score for Lenox, on a 3-yard run with 1:31 to go.
Southwest Valley jumped out to a 22-0 lead after one quarter as Bissell scored a 27-yard touchdown just 39 seconds after Stuart had run the ball in for a score.
It looked as if the Timberwolves would take that 22-0 lead into the half, but a McCuen interception returned to the 10-yard line, set up another Bissell touchdown.
"One more score going into the half, knowing we're going to play defense against a pretty good offense to start the second half," Bass said. "It was huge to get that one last score and go into the locker room with as much momentum as possible."
Bissell would add a 46-yard touchdown in the third quarter and a 30-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter.
Defensively for the Timberwolves, Keegan Longabaugh led the way with 13 total tackles, including 10 solo tackles.
The Timberwolves, now 5-1 for the season and 4-1 in Eight-Man District 8, have a bye week this week, giving them a chance to rest up for a big non-district encounter with 5-0 Exira/EHK the following week.
Lenox drops to 4-2 overall and 3-2 in the district. The Tigers host CAM (2-4 overall and 2-2 in District 8) this Friday in Lenox's "Pink Out" game for cancer awareness.
"Our destiny is in our own hands," Dukes said. "We can still make it into the playoffs, but we have to win one of the last two against CAM or Fremont-Mills. It's up to these guys how bad they want to make the playoffs or not."
Sidney and Fremont-Mills sit atop the district standings, both 3-0 in district play. The Cowboys travel to Fremont-Mills for an important district matchup on Friday.

Local company releases CD
Follow me here. This is a little complicated.
The Good Ones Clothing was launched this past spring by Cattywampus Records LLC, a partnership between local marketing and design company One Lucky Guitar and another local company, Matilda Jane Clothing.
One Lucky Guitar created The Final Hurrahs, a fictional band featured on apparel from The Good Ones Clothing. Although The Final Hurrahs is a make-believe band, they've managed to put out an actual CD, called "Numero One."
The CD features 17 songs written, recorded and performed by Josh Hall, a Fort Wayne musician. The Good Ones Clothing's Matt Kelley was executive producer on the album.
By the way, The Final Hurrahs band is also used in videos, coloring pages, stickers, desktop graphics and ring tones on the clothing company's website.
For more information about The Final Hurrahs and The Good Ones Clothing go to www.thegoodones.com. Watch The Final Hurrahs' videos at www.vimeo.com/goodones/videos.

Buy that extended warranty?
Here are some tips from Angie's List on when to buy an extended warranty, and when to say, "no thanks."
You probably don't need it if you always have the latest version of what you're buying; you're paying with a credit card, which may provide warranty protection; your homeowners insurance will cover you; or you're buying a product with high reliability ratings.
If you're considering an extended warranty, Angie's List advises you to read the fine print; don't allow yourself to be pressured by a salesperson; make sure the extended warranty starts after the manufacturer's warranty expires; and try to negotiate a cheaper purchase price for the item (or the warranty) if you agree to purchase a warranty.
Know of a store opening, closing or remodeling? Find a good deal? Call Cindy Larson at 461-8284, fax 461-8817, e-mail email@example.com or write to: In the Bag, C/O The News-Sentinel, PO Box 102, Fort Wayne, IN 46801. To read other columns, go to http://www.news-sentinel.com/section/LARSON

The Bengsons take love, life, and music on the road with 'Hundred Days'
There are two sides to every road. But ask a long-haul trucker, a traveling salesman, or a pair of wandering minstrels like the Bengsons, and they'll remind you that those sides converge at the horizon line.
The Bengsons — married musician-songwriters Abigail and Shaun — met randomly through a gig in New York City back in the late aughts. A mutual attraction, immediate and fierce, led them to become engaged within weeks of their first conversation. Both then in their early 20s, with serious and eclectic musical backgrounds, they recall the courtship as a whirlwind of powerful new emotions, bright and dark. Fast on the heels of marriage came five years of traveling across the country as their own band — a sure blend of musical influences that slips across various genres, in a sort of indie folk, neo-vaudevillian, truck stop cabaret, and drive-by rock opera that more or less dovetails with their daily selves. Among much else, living and learning as peripatetic artists and lovers has given them the opportunity to explore the meaning of all those feelings that led to their highly creative, itinerant relationship.
The fruit of that exploration is in the world premiere this week of Hundred Days, a major musical-theatrical venture carefully nurtured by Z Space and three years in the making. Directed by Anne Kauffman and with a book by Bay Area–based playwright Kate E. Ryan — both fully collaborative partners in the project, the Bengsons readily acknowledge — Hundred Days is something like a real-life Once: a true love affair cast through a darkly playful fictional story about Sarah (Abigail Bengson) and Will (Shaun Bengson), two 20somethings who find their powerful new love comes with a serious expiration date.
The production is no mere concert (though it rocks, loudly and well), but every inch a theatrical experience. Ryan provides a complete and involving narrative spine to the at times raucous, at times haunting musical set pieces. Moreover, Hundred Days features a large and talented cast of actors and musicians (including El Beh, Melissa Kaitlyn Carter, Geneva Harrison, Kate Kilbane, Jo Lampert, Amy Lizardo, Dalane Mason, Joshua Pollock, and Reggie D. White); a moody and mercurial set design by Kris Stone (aglow with a sort of post-industrial romanticism courtesy of lighting designer Allen Willner); and choreography by renowned San Francisco dance maker Joe Goode.
But at its heart are a body of songs of surprising force and subtlety, in dynamic arrangements that showcase both the Bengsons' hard-won skills as musicians and composers, as well as their exhilarating ability to convey a rare sense of emotional honesty, of uncensored feeling, in their work. Before a recent rehearsal ahead of the show's first previews, the couple sat down and shared musings on the journey that brought them here.
SF Bay Guardian You've described your courtship as being a kind of existential crisis, in that it suddenly put life in an unsettling new perspective.
Shaun Bengson It did start to feel incredibly short.
Abigail Bengson It's life's irony that in rushing to live life fully you do collide more quickly with the end of it. Rushing towards life is inevitably rushing towards death. That's true of everybody. In the play, we put a timer on it, to help us talk about it in a more concrete way. But that's just how we feel every day anyway [laughs] It's just sort of the situation.
SB They're such big feelings, it's taken a really long time to sort them out and figure out what's going on there — a lot of the wonder, and also the neurosis and the fear — all of that is where the show came from.

The Loyola MAT (Master of Arts in Teaching) offers a course of study that is designed to prepare exceptionally qualified teachers who are responsive to the educational needs of diverse learners at the elementary level (grades 1 - 6).
The program has been designed with flexibility in mind. Whether you are a recent college graduate, experienced classroom teacher, or a career-changer following your inner passion, the MAT program offers the right combination of coursework, internship experiences, and individualized attention to help you reach your goals and achieve certification.
The elementary education program requires an undergraduate major in one of the four content areas (mathematics, science, English, or social studies, or another closely related area) and/or a well-rounded liberal arts background, including courses in science, mathematics, English, and social studies. Social studies includes economics, history, philosophy, political science, psychology, and sociology. Completion of this program and satisfactory scores on the Praxis CORE (or equivalent) and Praxis II exams will lead to Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) certification.
The Master of Arts in Teaching program is grounded in the guiding tenets of Loyola's education department: competence, conscience, and compassion and is influenced by the Jesuit educational philosophy which emphasizes academic excellence, reflective practice, and social justice in education. The MAT program offers a course of studies that is designed to prepare exceptionally qualified teachers who are responsive to the needs of diverse learners.
Recent college graduates and career changers will use the content knowledge obtained at the undergraduate level as a foundation for exploring educational pedagogy. Experienced teachers will gain even better understanding of the latest educational techniques and best practices. Students are encouraged to identify goals and then can work to achieve them in a learner-centered environment.
Most classes are offered in the late afternoon and early evening to balance various schedules. The program is available in both a part-time and full-time format to accommodate students who want to complete the program on a fast pace, as well as students who prefer to take a number of years to finish. Students may start the program in any of our three semesters fall, spring, or summer.
*Includes two-required field placements.

Every day the ASPCA partners with committed individuals and groups working tirelessly to save the lives of more animals in need. Many of these heroes work behind the scenes, rarely getting the acknowledgement they deserve.
Today, however, we have a unique opportunity to not only publicly thank and recognize one of our closest partners, Jane Hoffman of the Mayor's Alliance, but also help her organization win a $50,000 grant. Earlier this year, we nominated Jane, founding member of the Mayor's Alliance for NYC's Animals and current president and chair of their board of directors, for a unite4:good humanitarian award. We were thrilled to learn recently that she was named a finalist, and as such will receive at least a $25,000 grant, but she is now relying on public votes to receive the top honor, the Unite4:Humanity Inspiration Award.
We nominated Jane because we are keenly aware of her hard work and unwavering dedication to the Mayor's Alliance, which was established to apply creative, targeted solutions to NYC's homeless animal crisis. Under Jane's leadership, the Alliance is making strong headway on increasing adoptions; increasing access to spay/neuter, micro-chipping, and dog licensing services; and increasing awareness of animal shelters and rescue groups and the animals in their care. In other words, if New York animals are our best friends, Jane Hoffman may be theirs.
To vote for Jane, please visit unite4:good's website. Voting ends on February 19!

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
Re: Analysis for Rapid Comment - 3 - Pakistan/Afghanistan/MIL - A Border Incident and Islamabad's Response - ASAP

Attack helicopters supporting International Security Assistance Force
(ISAF) troops on the Afghan side of the Afghan-Pakistani border
reportedly fired upon a Pakistani Frontier Corps position Sept. 30,
killing 3 Frontier Corps troops and wounding three others. The
incident took place at 9:30am local time in Kurram agency of
Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas according to Pakistani
media reports and the Pakistani government quickly came out strongly
condemning the incident.
There is no shortage of potential scenarios for what actually happened
on the ground. ISAF troops are regularly engaged from the Pakistani
side of the border, and cross-border exchanges of fire and fighting
effective on the border are common. ISAF may have even been fired upon
from the Frontier Corps position. Or it may have been an error on
ISAF's part where the Frontier Corps position was accidentally or
inappropriately engaged.
But the facts of the matter in this case are really beside the point.
According to a well placed STRATFOR source in Pakistan, the Pakistani
Army General Headquarters considers this the fourth incident in less
than a week - and the most offensive because Pakistani troops were
directly targeted. Just two days ago on Sept. 28, the Pakistanis
warned that it will stop protecting ISAF supply lines to Afghanistan
if foreign aircraft continue to engage targets across the border.
Islamabad has already drawn the line in the sand and it has been
crossed. Following through on that threat, the border crossing over
the Khyber Pass at Torkham was quickly closed in response to this
It is not yet clear how long the border will remain closed in protest.
Short disruptions are completely manageable logistically in
Afghanistan and have been accommodated in the past. But the regime in
Islamabad has been feeling increased pressure as American unmanned
aerial vehicle strikes on militant positions in Pakistan's tribal
areas have increased and widespread domestic dissatisfaction with the
government's response to the humanitarian disaster caused by flooding
earlier this year has only further strained the government.
Domestically, there is little room for Islamabad to compromise or back
down on this. Moving forward, the key issue is not the facts of this
particular incident, but the Pakistani government's response and the
demands they make of the United States operationally.

More information, more options, and more control over their personal choices as consumers.
Most Americans believe that the rise of the Internet and the spread of social media has delivered all of those tangible benefits, according to a new Allstate/National Journal Heartland Monitor Poll exploring public attitudes toward the cascading technological advances that have revolutionized communication between individuals, business, and government.
Millions of Americans, the poll found, use online tools not only to comparison shop but also to learn from the collective experience of other consumers and to contribute to that mass judgment by posting accounts of their experiences, good or bad, with businesses and government. A solid majority of Americans, especially those who actively use social media, believe that this ongoing communications revolution is enhancing their ability to make informed choices as consumers. A narrower plurality of respondents also feel that the same dynamics are equipping them to make better choices as voters.
But for ordinary Americans, has this explosion of Internet use increased their influence over the public and private institutions that shape their lives? On that front, despite high-profile examples of online uprisings that forced changes on such companies as Bank of America and Netflix, Americans are much more dubious.
In the survey, only small minorities say that big companies or government are more responsive to public complaints than they were 10 or 15 years ago. And comparably small percentages believe that their influence over those institutions has increased during this period. Moreover, the poll found, most people believe that big institutions engage online mostly to advance their own agendas rather than to genuinely seek feedback from consumers and citizens. Most people also still express more trust in traditional information sources, such as newspapers and television news, than in online forums. Skepticism about the motivation and trustworthiness of both government and big business remains endemic as well. "For every company that's willing to listen to the criticism, there's far more [of them] willing to stifle dissent," said Beth Thibault, the technology manager for a consulting firm in Westport, Conn., who responded to the poll.
Taken together, these contrasting attitudes extend a central—perhaps the central—thread in the 13 Heartland Monitor surveys conducted since early 2009. In the latest survey, most Americans say that the emergence of constant communication is providing them with better tools to make decisions under their immediate control, such as buying a car or planning a trip. But most doubt that these tools are increasing their leverage over the vast public and private institutions that shape the larger currents of American life. That dynamic is similar to the attitudes expressed in earlier surveys about issues from retirement security to lifetime employment: In an economy that now offers individuals both more choices and more risks, most Americans have become reluctant individualists, trusting their own efforts, rather than any institution, to obtain security.
The Allstate/National Journal Heartland Monitor polls explore the ways that Americans are navigating the changing economy. The latest poll, conducted by Ed Reilly and Jeremy Ruch of FTI Strategic Communications, a communications-strategy consulting firm, surveyed 1,000 adults by landline telephone and cell phone from May 19-23. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.
This survey focused on Americans' experiences with online communications, particularly social-media tools such as Facebook, Google+, Twitter, and LinkedIn. The poll explored how individuals are using these tools to interact with businesses and government, and whether their development is changing the sources of information that people use in making consumer and political choices.
Fundamentally, the poll documented the remarkable spread of the Internet and social media through American life. Slightly more than four-fifths of adults use the Internet at least occasionally, and that figure predictably rises to near-universal adoption among younger people (96 percent of those ages 18-29, and 94 percent of those 30-39); those with at least a four-year college degree (90 percent); and those earning at least $100,000 annually (93 percent). Most Internet users report using it at least several times a day.
"I don't buy anything or go anywhere without checking online." —Robert Merkle, Bayville, N.J.
Nearly four-fifths of Internet users say they have an active social-media account and that they've accessed it in the past month. That percentage soars to more than 90 percent among Internet users ages 18-29. (Interestingly, nonwhite Internet users are somewhat more likely than whites to use social media.) In all, just under two-thirds of adults say they regularly use social media. Among that group, Facebook is by far the most popular site: 79 percent of regular social-media users have an active account there. Google+ was next at 43 percent, followed by Twitter at 20 percent, and LinkedIn at 19 percent. No other site cracked double digits.

Skream (born Oliver Dene Jones in West Wickham, Bromley, London on 1 June 1986) is a dubstep producer based in Croydon. One of dubstep's first and most prominent producers, he has played an important role in the genre's development. His debut album Skream! was released in 2006, and was followed up by Outside the Box in 2010. Skream is also a member of the dubstep supergroup Magnetic Man, along with fellow producers Benga and Artwork. The group released their self-titled debut album on 8 October 2010. In an interview with The Independent (UK) in September 2011, Skream was quoted: "The word dubstep is being used by a lot of people and there were a lot of people being tagged with the dubstep brush. They donâ[][]t want to be tagged with it and shouldnâ[][]t be tagged with it â[][] thatâ[][]s not what theyâ[][]re pushing ... When I say â[][]UK bassâ[][], itâ[][]s what everyone UK is associated with so it would be a lot easier if it was called that.â[]

Wauwatosa neighbors resigned, if unhappy, with DOT's Mayfair Road plans
Local residents met with Zoo Interchange engineers last week and once again expressed their dissatisfaction with various aspects of plans for Mayfair Road, but a sense of resignation has replaced the rough edges that once characterized the encounters.
Still, a new wrinkle in the design - a temporary commercial driveway onto Wisconsin Avenue - has generated fresh objections from many.
A fluctuating group of about 15 or more attended a two-hour open house at the police station's community room last Thursday to review what engineers called "final design" plans for Mayfair from about Watertown Plank Road south to the expressway, including the key intersections with Bluemound Road, Watertown Plank Road, and, between them, the smaller but perhaps more sensitive junction with Wisconsin Avenue. »Read Full Article(17)
Assembly speaker subpoenaed in redistricting feud
Madison - Groups involved in a long-simmering legal fight with Republicans have subpoenaed Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) and other officials in an attempt to track down computers they want to search.
The move came a week after a panel of three federal judges ordered that two sides and the state quickly resolve their differences. The groups sued the state in 2011 over election maps drawn by Republicans, but for months the case has focused on documents that were improperly withheld from the plaintiffs.
For five months, the plaintiffs have been seeking to forensically search computers used for redistricting to find out why they did not receive documents that were supposed to be turned over to them and to learn if any other records were improperly withheld. So far, they have not been able to learn where the state computers are located, let alone search them. »Read Full Article(64)
Check for tax credit eligibility, IRS urges
The Internal Revenue Service is urging working families to see whether they qualify for a tax credit that last year generated an average of $2,062 for 383,000 Wisconsin households.
People who work but earn less than $50,270 a year from wages, self-employment or farming may be eligible for the Earned Income Tax Credit, said Christopher Miller, IRS spokesman for Wisconsin.
"About a third of the people eligible for EITC changes every year, probably because they get a job or lose one, have a child or change their marital status," Miller said. "This changing population of people who are eligible is why it's so important to raise new awareness every year." »Read Full Article

State bankruptcy filings dropped again in 2012
Bankruptcy filings in Wisconsin fell for the second consecutive year in 2012 as the economy continued to slowly mend and employment improved.
Filings were down about 7% last year, to 25,012 from 26,923 in 2011, U.S. Bankruptcy Court records show.
"Most everything we see - both bankruptcies and foreclosures - depend upon the level of employment," said bankruptcy attorney David Leibowitz, founder and managing member of LakeLaw in Milwaukee and Kenosha. "Employment is getting stronger, so bankruptcies are declining. The economy is improving." »Read Full Article(1)

Fishing guide dies on Lake Superior
A fishing guide has died after his snowmobile went through the ice on Lake Superior off Bayfield.
The Ashland County Sheriff's Office says James Hudson, 34, of Bayfield, broke through in the channel between Long Island and the mainland.
Authorities received the call shortly after 1 p.m. Saturday. The U.S. Coast Guard says a bystander may have tried to pull Hudson from the water but kept falling through the ice. Rescue crews pulled Hudson from the lake about a half-hour later. He was pronounced dead at a Duluth hospital.
The Duluth News Tribune reported Hudson guided anglers year-round on Lake Superior. His wife gained worldwide attention last summer for a picture she took of a man and his elderly dog resting in Lake Superior on a summer day.
Pipeline attorneys say residents unharmed by spill can't sue
West Bend - No harm, no compensation, say attorneys for the owner and operator of a pipeline that spilled gasoline last July in a farm pasture in the Town of Jackson.
Defense attorneys for the companies are asking Washington County Circuit Judge James Muehlbauer to dismiss emotional distress and medical monitoring claims of 150 property owners because none of them have alleged physical injury or exposure to contamination resulting from the spill.
Worries of loss of property values or risk of ill health in the future don't measure up to the legal standard required to claim severe emotional distress in Wisconsin courts, according to Milwaukee attorneys Trevor Will and David Lucey. Will and Lucey, of Foley & Lardner LLP, are defending West Shore Pipe Line Co. of Arlington Heights, Ill., and Buckeye Partners L.P. of Pennsylvania and Texas, in a lawsuit filed by the families in December. »Read Full Article(50)

Reprimands, not harsh punishment, dominate Wisconsin doctor disciplines
A Wisconsin State Journal analysis published Sunday has found that, of the 218 cases leading to medical board discipline of state doctors from 2010 to 2012, more than half of the doctors disciplined received reprimands - warnings that go on their records but don't limit their practices. In at least 50 of the cases involving reprimands, patients died or were harmed, the report said.
Medical board leaders said they preferred to rehabilitate doctors rather than punish them, according to the report. (5)
Violent crime rises dramatically in Green Bay
Violent crime in the first six months of 2012 in Green Bay increased almost 65%, according to a report Sunday in the Green Bay Press-Gazette.
The 262 reported violent crimes - robbery, forcible rape, aggravated assault and homicide - from January to June 2012 was up from the 159 such crimes reported during that same period in 2011, the report said.
Milwaukee police investigating two shootings
The Milwaukee Police Department is investigating two shootings that occurred overnight.
A 27-year-old woman was killed in the 3400 block of W. Highland Ave., police said. Police did not say exactly when the shooting occurred and did not release any other details.
A separate shooting occurred about 9 p.m. Saturday in the 2600 block of N. 45th St. The victim, a 31-year-old man, told police he was in his residence when he heard gunshots. He left his home to investigate when someone shot him once in the chest.
A police squad in the area heard the shots and alerted other squads. Another squad observed suspects fleeing from the area. After a brief foot chase two were taken into custody. The victim was being treated at an area hospital.
