The Corolla has been volume leader for Toyota for several years, and the latest version offers buyers even more bang for their buck. In a crowded compact segment, against the Honda Civic, Nissan Sentra and Ford Focus, the new Corolla stands out for its fresh, athletic styling, as well as its roomy, feature-rich interior. The LE Eco even offers best-in-class fuel economy. Add Toyota's outstanding reputation for reliability, and the 2016 Corolla deserves a place at the top of every compact car-shopper's list.

The Toyota Corolla carries over into 2016 with few changes, though a new Special Edition features unique appointments, including 17-inch gloss black alloy wheels, black interior with red stitching and more.
A vehicle's warranty can significant impact your maintenance costs after you drive off the dealer's lot, and it's important to understand the different parts. Typically, a new car warranty includes a Basic warranty, which covers everything except the wear items such as brakes and tires; and a Drivetrain warranty, that covers all the parts that make the car move, such as the engine and transmission
The NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) provides consumers with vehicle safety information based on independent testing, primarily front and side crash rating results, and more recently rollover ratings, to aid consumers in their vehicle purchase decisions.

The Toyota Corolla compact sedan offers reliable, inexpensive transportation. The Corolla delivers high value for its moderate price. It looks fresh, with crisp lines, it's quiet underway, and it boasts all the technology expected by today's compact-car shoppers. Though classed as a compact, it's not tiny.
Redesigned for the 2014 model year, the current model represents the 11th generation of the Corolla. A new Special Edition model featuring special trim joins the 2016 Corolla lineup. Otherwise, there are no significant changes for 2016.
Toyota Corolla is among the best-known names in the automotive world, following decades at or near the top of the sales charts in the U.S. The Corolla nameplate has represented basic, trouble-free, and relatively comfortable motoring for 40 years.
Two 1.8-liter four-cylinder engines are used with two different transmissions. Corolla L, LE, and S models come with a 1.8-liter engine is rated at 132 horsepower and 128 pound-feet of torque. A slightly more fuel-efficient version for the Corolla LE Eco makes 140 horsepower (though, of course, it's more expensive).
Most buyers choose the continuously variable transmission (CVT), which is tuned to provide a nearly linear, reassuring feel when accelerating moderately. As a result, there's less of the droning common with CVTs. The CVTs offer the best fuel-economy estimates, led by the Corolla LE Eco.
The 2016 Corolla with CVT is EPA-rated at 29/38 mpg City/Highway, or 32 mpg Combined. Corolla LE Eco is rated 30/42 mpg, or 35 mpg Combined.
Corolla L and Corolla S offer a 6-speed manual gearbox. The transmission option for the Corolla L is Toyota's ancient, sluggish 4-speed automatic. In contrast, the CVT in the S model echoes a 7-speed automatic, with paddle shifters that can select virtual gearchanges.
Little has changed for 2016 except for a new Special Edition model, based upon the sporty Corolla S. Only 8,000 will be sold, in three exclusive colors.
Infotainment systems are among the better ones in the affordable-car class. In some models, the latest Entune system features navigation and apps.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gave the Corolla a five-star overall crash-test rating, with five stars in every test except rollover. In testing by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the 2015 Corolla earned top Good ratings, except for a Marginal score in the small-overlap frontal test. Only a few active-safety systems are available in Corollas.
The 2016 Toyota Corolla comes in L, LE, S, and new LE Eco trim levels. All but the L also come in Plus or Premium form.
Corolla L ($17,300) comes with air conditioning, fabric upholstery, Bluetooth hands-free phone/audio, LED low-beam headlights, a 60/40 split fold-down rear seat, power locks/windows, Entune Audio with 6.1-inch touchscreen, USB/iPod connectivity, and 15-inch steel wheels. A 6-speed manual is standard; a 4-speed automatic ($600) is optional.
Corolla LE ($18,735) comes with the CVT and upgrades with automatic climate control, steering-wheel controls, voice recognition, 16-inch steel wheels, heated power mirrors, remote keyless entry, cruise control, and a rearview camera. LE Plus ($19,135) adds integrated foglamps and 16-inch alloy wheels. LE Premium ($22,195) includes SofTex-trimmed heated front seats, a power driver's seat, and a moonroof.
Corolla LE Eco ($19,135) gets the more fuel-efficient 140-horsepower engine with CVT, 15-inch low-rolling-resistance tires, a rear spoiler, and aerodynamic underbody covers. LE Eco Plus ($19,835) and LE Eco Premium ($22,895) models are offered.
Corolla S ($19,295) features a Sport drive mode that firms up steering and quickens throttle response and paddle shifters for the CVTi-S, along with sport-bolstered seats, a multi-information display, and special trim. S Plus comes with 6-speed manual ($21,665) or CVT ($20,065). S Premium ($23,125) comes only with CVT. Special Edition ($20,635) features 17-inch black alloy wheels, black upholstery with red stitching, and red interior accents.
Eight airbags are standard, including a driver's knee bag and passenger seat-cushion bag.
The Corolla is conservative in appearance. Attractive, with crisp lines, but not particularly distinctive.
LED headlights and running lights help give the Corolla a sportier aura. So does the lengthened wheelbase of the current generation (2014-2016), which added some interior space.
Corolla LE models have a grille that differs from the one in the base L version, while the S sedan gets a blacked-out grille, with a bolder airdam flanked by foglamps. Decisively angled frontal shapes, coupled with an upward-tilted beltline toward the rear, help create a wedge profile.
Roomier than expected, the Corolla can hold four six-footers. Long cushions and full adjustments help make front seats comfortable, while the driver gets a relaxed position, as if in a larger car.
Leg space in back is good; headroom, not so much. Still, for the first time, two long-legged passengers can expect comfort in the back of a Corolla. Outward visibility is good.
Trunk space ranks as average, with a wide opening and low, flat cargo floor. All models have flip-forward back seats.
The cabin has a rather conservative look and feel, though upscale materials help provide a sense of spaciousness. So does the two-tier dashboard, covered with soft-touch material. S models get SofTex leatherette bolsters, with coarse, contrasting seat upholstery.
Overall, the Corolla feels refined, though short of best in class. Engine sounds are nicely isolated.
Fuel-efficiency is a strong point and all models run on Regular 87 octane gasoline, so no need for more-expensive Premium. The 2016 Toyota Corolla with CVT is EPA-rated at 29/38 mpg City/Highway, or 32 mpg Combined. Corolla S with CVT gets just slightly less, rated 29/37 mpg. Corolla S or Corolla L with 6-speed manual is rated 28/37 mpg. Corolla L with 4-speed automatic is rated 27/36 mpg.
The Corolla LE Eco model is EPA-rated at 30/42 mpg City/Highway, or 35 mpg Combined. Eco Plus or Eco Premium editions are slightly less thrifty.
Driveability is decent in a CVT-equipped Corolla, though they lack energy from a standing start, especially when is facing a hill or filled with passengers.
That said, a CVT Corolla feels downright jaunty compared to a base model with the 4-speed automatic. Not only is the Corolla L with automatic slow when passing, it consumes more fuel. For this reason, we don't recommend the Corolla L with the automatic; for the Corolla L, we recommend the 6-speed manual transmission.
The 6-speed manual shift linkage doesn't reach sports-sedan precision, and the throws are somewhat long, but the clutch operates lightly and predictably, making a stick-shift Corolla easy to drive in stop-and-go commuter traffic.
Despite a bit more horsepower, don't expect the Eco model to feel discernibly quicker.
Underway, the Corolla rides almost pillow-like, though wiggly rural roads can keep the suspension busy trying to accommodate curves and surface undulations at the same time. Expect some rebounding over railroad tracks and prominent bumps.
Only the sporty Corolla S delivers authentically rewarding handling. The Corolla S suspension is enjoyably taut and controlled, yet free of harshness.
The Toyota Corolla offers low operating costs and high value, excellent fuel-efficiency, and a spacious interior. For most buyers, we recommend the Corolla LE with its nice set of features, smooth ride, and easy-to-use CVT. For more driving fun, opt for the Corolla S, especially with the 6-speed manual. Not only is its suspension more taut, a Sport button can tighten the steering. The ride is firm, yet absorbent and nicely controlled. Avoid the Corolla L with 4-speed automatic.

As you know, pricing cars is particularly complicated. One of our duties at CarQuotes.com is to help our customers comprehend this process better.
CarQuotes.com Estimated Target Price is for research purposes only. It reflects a typical, negotiated price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, license and registration, and where applicable, finance charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. The Estimated Target Price is NOT a price quote from CarQuotes.com or any other dealer. If you request a price quote from a dealer via CarQuotes.com displaying an estimated target price, your price may differ.
Invoice is commonly known as the published amount that the dealer paid the manufacturer for the vehicle. This may or may not represent a close relation to the dealer's actual cost, but can be beneficial as a benchmark. This figure is available on many other web sites however CarQuotes.com adds an estimate of local and regional fees from manufacturer to the dealers to this price, which makes it very close to the actual invoice amount for cars at your local dealer.
MSRP is the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. This is a proposed price only. For most vehicles, the CarQuotes.com price is below this amount. Some high demand cars may be priced over this amount.
The CarQuotes.com Target Price is to be used as a general guide that reflects a typical, market price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. This price is based on our research and estimates of supply and demand in the marketplace. There are many factors that go into the final price of a particular vehicle including local supply and demand. Your final price may differ.
The 'base' price of the vehicle
All options that you select
Base Destination Charges — this is a charge that is added to the base price for every vehicle
Any related Estimated Manufacture to Consumer Cash Rebates. Note: rebates are subject to change at any time. Please make sure to confirm any consumer Cash rebates with your dealer representative at the time of purchase.
Local taxes, license fees and other local fees, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, and where applicable, finance charges — these fees are also excluded from Dealer Invoice and MSRP and would be excluded from most advertisements you might see.
Random 'special qualification' rebates — i.e., for new college grads only; for customers trading in a specific type of car. Ask your dealer Representative for more information on 'special qualification' rebates.
The Estimated CarQuotes Dealer Price is an estimate of the pricing presented to CarQuotes members from CarQuotes Authorized Dealers in your area, and is calculated by subtracting an estimated savings value from the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price ("MSRP") as well as a value that relates to invoice for the "ideal vehicle" you configured. Dealer documentation, administrative or similar processing fees are not included in the price estimate. Any vehicle configured on the CarQuotes website is an "ideal vehicle" and may not exist at a CarQuotes Authorized Dealer or any other partner dealer. Each Dealer attempts to match a member's vehicle preferences with the best possible selection from current, in-stock inventory.
The Estimated Savings represents the estimated amount of savings off of MSRP available to you from CarQuotes Dealers for a vehicle consistent with your configured preferences plus any customer incentives currently available. This is also true when it comes to CarQuotes estimated target prices. Your actual savings will depend on several factors including market conditions, the style of vehicle you select, installed options, dealer coverage, and applicable manufacturer incentives. Each dealer sets its own pricing.
In most cases, you must choose between these programs OR a customer rebate or a special manufacturer-to-dealer incentive that may or may not already be included in your CarQuotes.com Target Price. So, your final price may go up if you take advantage of special manufacturer financing. Credit Union members should contact their Credit Union loan department to determine what type of loan and financing options are right for you.
Please note that CarQuotes.com strives to include identified manufacturer incentives within the CarQuotes.com Target Price. CarQuotes.com does not administer these programs, which are subject to and often change without notice. Eligibility for these programs is subject to verification by a licensed auto dealer.
Ask your dealer representative for complete manufacturer program details for your area, and how participation in these programs will affect your price.
The base vehicle is the vehicle before any optional equipment or destination fees have been added. All of the standard features are included in the base vehicle.
This is the total charge for all optional equipment included in the configuration of your virtual vehicle. The Options charge varies depending on whether it is calculated based on the Factory Invoice or MSRP. Options are not included in the base vehicle price and are not considered standard features.
A Regional Fee is the fee a manufacturer charges a dealer to advertise and promote the vehicle in the dealer's market. CarQuotes also includes estimated manufacturer preparation charges (manufacturer charges to the dealer to cover any work done on the car prior to delivering it to the dealership) and fuel charges (the charge for the fuel in the tank when the buyer purchases the vehicle) in this total. CarQuotes attempts to include regional ad fees in its Factory Invoice calculations; other sites at times do not.
These are the amounts that manufacturers charge to deliver a vehicle from the factory to the dealership.
Customer incentives are also commonly known as customer cash or bonus incentives. These incentives are offered by manufacturers as a way of enticing buyers into purchasing a vehicle.
Dealer Invoice price may or may not bear close relation to a dealer's actual cost for the vehicle. In some cases, a cost for a vehicle may be significantly less than the invoice price originally paid for the vehicle. Any difference between invoice price and the dealer's final cost may be caused by many factors including factory refunds, rebates, allowances, or incentives which the manufacturer or distributor may provide to the dealer.

I have a lad who has only just turned 17 is better than a lot of debut pros, however there is no way I would allow him to fight pro until he is 18. I won't even match him against full adults yet as until 18-19years he is still a kid
I have a lad who has only just turned 17 is better than a lot of debut pros, however there is no way I would allow him to fight pro until he is 18. I won't even match him against full adults yet as until 18-19years he is still a kid
Connor has a good background and solid amateur experience- and no doubt his coach Sean is looking after him and has his best interest at heart. He is capable to go pro and has good people behind him,but agree that just because someone can does not make it a good idea-especially in the long run.
Personally i think and hope Connor will do well in the pro ranks,but it doesnt mean inexperienced unskilled lads should be stuck on shows just to shift tickets.
This is the thing - For every Coner who is experienced and capable, with a good team looking after his best interests, there will be 20 kids who aren't in that position, for whom turning pro early is a very bad idea.
I guess you have to make rules to look after the majority. I'm a big opponent of media censorship, but I understand the need for age-ratings/cuts of movies. My parents allowed me to watch age restricted movies well before I should have, but I was brought up to know right from wrong and that what I was seeing wasn't how I should act. Sadly a lot of kids just get plonked in front of a TV without any context being given.
Same situation here I think. As we all well know, there are people in this industry who are looking after their wallets before fighter safety. Perhaps as and when a commission does come in, a mandatory age could be instituted for turning pro. While I don't have an issue with Coner taking a pro fight three months before his 18th birthday, it's probably for the greater good. Perhaps exceptions could be made on a case-by-case basis.
Fighting, writing and mood lighting.
Only if he is a competent fighter. And if he can bang, bro
MMA Officials London, Essex and East Anglia representative
If he can bang is one thing,bro- but when i was 18 i just wanted people to leave me alone and lemmee bang,bro
I know coner is more then capable of fighting pro he is a very technical fighter, that's not in question as this thread is not directed at coner, its more about the age limit to fight pro it was coners fight that got me thinking.
but like Ian Dean says it looks bad for the sport when/if the media get hold if it and start ranting bullshit because at the end of the day a person under the age of 18 is still classed as a child.
Out of interest would a 17 year old be able to fight pro on a "safe Mma" event?
How much amature experience has he had ?
If the kid has been training right with good coaching then I don't see why not. Not all 17 years olds are the same.
Graham Turner had his first pro fight a day after his 18th birthday.
Ryan Scope might have had his first fight before 18, if he didn't he would have easily been ready too

No one at Dania Jai-Alai wins as much or finishes in the money or produces as many highlight reel plays as Arriaga Andoni Echaniz. A native of Markina, Spain, the 32-year-old Echaniz has no peer in the jai-alai frontcourt. That position calls for lightning-quick reflexes and swift lateral movement Echaniz has those, in addition to a crowd-pleasing habit of colliding with walls in his pursuit of a point. In his player profile, Echaniz claims a weakness for plays to his left, as well as for the occasional cigarette. But it doesn't seem to slow him down. So on your next trip to the Dania Jai-Alai, skip the slots. The smart money is on Echaniz.
Pompano Beach's Mickey Groody, an 18-year-old senior at St. Thomas Aquinas High School, has helped his football team reach the Division 5-A State Championships for three years running. This year, the star punter, who averages an NFL-worthy 42.3 yards per kick (about what Minnesota Vikings kicker Chris Kluwe, a longtime pro, averaged last year), is headed off to college -- but not far off. A self-described "hometown guy" with close family ties (he's a big brother to four younger siblings), he'll join legendary coach Howard Schnellenberger and the FAU Owls in the fall.
High school football is a big scene here, isn't it?
Yeah, we'll have 2,000, 3,000 people at a game. Come playoff time, the estimate is 10,000. Everyone goes to the games, even away games. When we went to the state championships, we packed 32 charter buses.
Punter is a high-pressure job What's the best thing about it?
Well, a quarterback can throw an incomplete pass, but he can redeem himself. For me, it's a one-shot deal. I don't get a re-do. The best thing is, though, I come out on fourth down, hearing all the groans and moans from the crowd because the offense didn't get the first down. But I can get the momentum going back toward us.
Tell us about this year's FAU team.
Our goal is to step-by-step get to the National Championship -- and I have a strong feeling that we will. The coach has done it with Miami, and he did the same thing with Louisville.
How important are good grades in all this?
Grades are important, especially to my family. I have to keep above a 3.3 GPA so I'm not grounded.
Any exotic locales you want to go to?
I always wanted to go to Hawaii. I like the whole Hawaiian theme you know, sitting on the beach drinking out of a coconut. I'd love to surf at one of those places where all the famous guys surf.
For any Marlins fan who remembers the 2003 World Series and the insanely good pitching that won it, the name Josh Beckett should be honored. Enshrined. Hell, can we apply for sainthood? Alas, Beckett was traded away to the Red Sox and left some mighty big cleats to fill. One of the players who came here in return for Beckett, through a complicated trade deal, was shortstop Hanley Ramirez. No, not Harley Ramirez. No, not Manny Ramirez. No, not that serial killer. We mean the kid who came out of Beantown's farm system to begin his major league career with the Marlins, under the weight of great expectations. He carried the load and then some. In fact, Ramirez won the National League Rookie of the Year in 2006 (notably, his Marlins teammates Dan Uggla and Josh Johnson were right behind him in votes.) It's not just that Ramirez has a .292 batting average or that he regularly slams homers over the wall or that he steals bases almost every third game (51 last year!). It's that, bundled together in a speedy package, with his hat cocked sideways on his head and his sunglasses coolly in place, Ramirez (lovingly nicknamed "Shadez") gives us something exciting to watch and someone worthwhile to cheer for. It's too early to guess whether the 2007 Marlins will make the postseason, and it'd be premature to call Ramirez our next Josh Beckett but hey, you're not calling him Harley anymore.
With D-Wade injured, this honor must now go to a mere mortal. Jason Kapono is most definitely human, flawed by his slow feet and inability to fly. But the six-foot-eight swingman possesses a laudable knack for pouncing on loose balls, plus an unselfish impulse for making the extra pass. He's a dexterous ballhandler and a fearless shooter, and he ranks as the league's best in three-point-shooting percentage winning All-Star weekend's three-point competition was no accident. With his superstar teammates, Kapono has formed a symbiotic relationship: By forcing defenders to come out to defend him, Kapono saves Shaq from double teams and opens up space for Wade to go soaring into the lane. Plus, on a team full of past-their-prime All-Stars (Antoine Walker, Gary Payton, Alonzo Mourning, Eddie Jones, and, yes, Shaq), it's nice to have a goofy white guy hustling back on D like he's lucky to be in the league.
Chicago Bears (and former Gator) quarterback Rex Grossman put it best: "Jason Taylor is a beast." That utterance came after Taylor single-handedly whipped a then-undefeated Bears team. In the first half alone, Taylor intercepted a Grossman pass that he returned for a touchdown and, in the very next possession, sacked Grossman, forcing a fumble. It's just a shame that Taylor, at age 31, wasted his greatest year on a team that had no offense and a turncoat coach. It's also a shame that last May, Taylor had an encounter with a cracker named Redmond Charles Burns. In a road-rage incident near Davie, the five-foot-11, 168-pound Burns screamed racial epithets and threatened to kill the six-foot-six, 250-pound Taylor. Although Taylor is known for his off-field humanitarian work, his single greatest act of charity was resisting the impulse to snap Burns' neck.
After one year in the remote football exile known as the Canadian Football League, Williams is homesick for our Miami Dolphins, and superagent Leigh Steinberg is trying to make it happen. The question is, who's the real Ricky? Was that him in 2002, rushing for a league-leading 1,853 yards? Or was that him in 2004, when he retired from the league, abandoning what might have been a Super Bowl contender, ostensibly so he could live in an African hut and smoke several acres of ganja? It's hard to believe, but Williams didn't even turn 30 until this month. There might still be some gas in that tank. Unfortunately, the Dolphins running game is in the able hands of Ronnie Brown, so we might never know whether there's another side Ricky hasn't shown us.

Royal baby: Why all the fuss?
(Kent) - Now that the royal baby has arrived, will the excitement over the birth die down?
Not likely, given the popularity of Prince William and his wife Kate, the duchess of Cambridge. In fact, the birth Monday moves the royal family into a new generation.
But why are Americans so obsessed with the birth of baby boy in England? Andrew Curtis thinks a big reason is that we have no lineage in the United States.
Curtis is a geography professor at Kent State University but he grew up in Peterborough, a town about 80 miles north of London. Curtis also thinks the obsession of many Americans toward celebrities helped stoke the excitement here.
In Great Britain, Curtis says people are divided into three groups: those who love the royal family, those who dislike the royal family and those who could care less. But everyone looks at the child's birth as a chance to move the monarchy into the modern age.
Queen Elizabeth II has sat on the throne since early 1952, and many in England think it's time someone younger took over.
An exhibition featuring clothes worn by former royal babies has already opened at the Museum of London.

This is the way to fight climate change. Not Tested On AnimalsThey believe in the ethical treatment of animals. This is reason why they offer cruelty free products One vision. One mission. One story.How did they create the first series of carbon-neutral, environmentally friendly household products? The question is often posed to us, and that's why they are presenting their company history in question-and-answer format. You first need to know that ATTITUDE products, available in about 20 countries, were not created overnight. The series owes its success to the work and genius of their small team of passionate staff. In an effort to create the most environmentally-friendly products, their team has succeeded in making its dreams a reality. Where did the idea of ATTITUDE come from?ATTITUDE products were conceived from a simple observation: nothing is more illogical than cleaning a home with toxic products. The more they thought about it, the more they noticed that it's an absolutely unbelievable contradiction. Holding their breath while cleaning a kitchen counter? Protecting theirselves from what is supposed to protect us? Cleaning, all the while polluting? There is something incredibly paradoxical in cleaning up the home environment using loads of chemical products. With ATTITUDE, they wanted not only to develop non-toxic products, but also to debunk this contradiction and change the way they clean. When they asked people in their inner circle why they did not consume in a more responsible fashion, they always got the same responses. Environmentally-friendly products don't work! They are too expensive! I can't find them in the supermarket! Creating ATTITUDE products was above all to respond to the areas that interested us: the environment and public health. They wanted to offer a solution to a pressing issue, proving to everyone that it is possible to develop environmentally friendly products that are also effective and as accessible as their traditional counterparts. How did ATTITUDE begin?In December 2005, they started to develop their surface cleaners. They were then a very small team working in a very small factory. Product development, production, bottling, distribution, marketing, compatibility--they were working on it all! They had to be particularly creative and efficient at the time. The success – wow! – of their surface cleaners led us to the decision to enlarge the family by adding detergents for dishwashing and clothing as well as hand soap. It's worth mentioning that just before their products were put on the market, the green algae (cyanobacteria) crisis occurred in Quebec. Many streams were then contaminated. It was a terrible tragedy, definitely, but it did make people more aware of the problem. People could not bathe in the chalets anymore, something that affected consumers directly! But while ATTITUDE expanded its presence on the market, more and more products purporting to be environmentally friendly flooded the shelves. Fighting against confusion while promoting the truth, the ATTITUDE team had lots of work to do. Does biodegradable mean environmentally friendly? Not necessarily! Does "phosphate-free" mean environmentally friendly? NO! And they decided to make consumers' lives easier while demonstrating their dedication to the environment by certifying their products through a particularly credible independent organization, EcoLogo. What does "environmentally friendly" mean to you?For us, an environmentally friendly product has to follow a global approach that includes economic, social, and environmental aspects. In other words, a product that is truly environmentally friendly has a positive impact on all areas of life. Environmentally friendly, for us, has to be uncompromising. No shortcuts! How does environmental awareness play into the development of your products?To evaluate environmental issues thoroughly and to assure theirselves that their products are undoubtedly environmentally sustainable, they applied what they call "life cycle analysis." What does this allow us to do? It allows us to take into account each stage in a product's life, from the extraction of the first materials to the end of its use. This global approach allows us to minimize the environmental impact of their products, for example, through the selection of ingredients from renewable and vegetable sources that are easily biodegradable and non-toxic. Environmentally friendly is much more than a buzzword! Businesses that emphasize a single attribute of their products, like biodegradability, are numerous. Because, after all, even a poison can be biodegradable! Thus another reason they certify their products. Independent certifications are a very useful tool. They make guarantees to consumers, all while simplifying a complicated message. What is your involvement in my community?They offer to their employees stimulating jobs that surpass Canadian standards. In addition, they welcome at their factory people with disabilities, helping them become integrated in society. They sincerely believe that it is the responsibility of companies to contribute significantly to society. This is what they aim to do when they offer people the chance to lead dignified and normal lives despite their differences. Why certify through EcoLogo?Firstly, they want to emphasize that this certification is a very useful tool for consumers, allowing them to make sure that environmentally friendly labels from manufacturers are valid and verified. Also, certifications help companies orient their products and services toward sustainable development. Finally, everything depends on certification, which has to be stringent, credible, and independent. EcoLogo was developed in 1988 by the Canadian government. This independent certification is the most credible and respected in North America. The EcoLogo program encompasses product labeling, requiring strict criteria of industries wanting to be recognized. Each company has to be subjected to a detailed verification that aims to ensure that each criterion is respected. And once the certification EcoLogo is given, the program even performs spot-checks! Is the EcoLogo certification recognized worldwide?Yes, EcoLogo is a founding member of the Global Ecolabeling Network (GEN), a non-profit organization that aims to promote ecolabeling and increase the credibility of the practice. They should mention that there are more than 26 environmentally-friendly certifications around the world, with Canada being the second country to focus on such a policy! Isn't exporting environmentally friendly products a bit contradictory?Excellent question. First, they should return to their original line of thinking. At the time, they were heavily influenced by the documentary by Al Gore on climate change. Suddenly, they recognized the magnitude of the challenge that humanity faces in climate change. The big question: how should they produce yet remain environmentally-friendly at the same time? Along the same lines comes the question of exporting. How can they be truly environmentally-friendly when exporting produces greenhouse gases? How do they export while tackling the current challenge to reduce their emissions? Thus, in 2008, they decided to make their products without a carbon footprint, towards being carbon-neutral! Ever since, the greenhouse emissions of ATTITUDE products have simply been ZERO. They were the first company in their industry to offer CO2-neutral products. All of their processes were optimized to meet this objective, and they compensate actively for the remaining emissions by planting trees, many of them, in fact. How would you summarize your approach to carbon-neutrality?The foundations of their approach are simple: calculate their greenhouse emissions, reduce them as much as possible, and compensate for the remaining emissions by planting trees. Basing their products on their "life cycle analysis", they carefully calculate the total emissions that result from their products: extraction, transport, and transformation of component materials, manufacturing of their products and packaging, distribution, etc. Even their employees' emissions are included! This type of bookkeeping is an excellent tool to identify "hot" zones, processes in which emissions are the highest. As a result, these processes are analyzed in a way to determine how to reduce the associated emissions effectively. At ATTITUDE, they have even succeeded in reducing their carbon footprint, all while decreasing their production costs! Carbon-neutrality is a model that functions well, and they believe that every serious company should adhere to it today. To compensate entirely for their remaining emissions, they work with Jour de la Terre, with whom they are very proud to be associated. What is great about Jour de la Terre is that their reforestation objectives do not only focus on carbon sequestration, but also on the development of ecosystems and preservation of biodiversity while managing green corridors. In compensating for its greenhouse gas emissions, ATTITUDE tackles two problems at once! What measures have you taken to reduce your greenhouse gas emissions? Their concept of the integrated factory has brought about a lot of change. This particularly innovative concept is unique in its ability to create the bottles for the product, the packaging, and their storage all under one roof. Usually, these steps are completed at different places. By grouping them together, they have significantly reduced the greenhouse gas emissions that normally come from transporting component materials. A major improvement! In addition, given that they manufacture their packaging on-site, it is possible to include a portion of recycled plastic and even to recycle defective bottles. As a result, they reduce greatly their waste and maximize the use of their primary materials. And if the equipment that produces the bottles creates a lot of heat, you should know that this heat is captured and redirected toward production zones for packaging and storage. The amount of energy necessary to heat the building is thus minimized due to this recycling. Do you have any new projects to reduce your environmental impact? Definitely! For us, the process of reducing their carbon emissions and environmental impact is a continuing project. They are always attempting to create and implement more environmentally-friendly solutions. For example, they are trying at this time to implement unpackaged goods. The goal? To allow consumers to refill their empty bottles or larger containers on site. If they succeed in meeting this challenge, the production of bottles and packaging in the factory will be reduced, and consumers will be able to benefit from a significant price reduction. About ATTITUDEBased in Montréal, Bio Spectra is a young, fast-growing and passion-driven North American developer, manufacturer and marketer of eco-friendly domestic consumer goods. Its mission? To promote responsible consumption by offering high performing products that minimize impacts on health and environment. Available worldwide, Bio Spectra's ATTITUDE brand has pushed the envelope for eco-responsibility by becoming the world's first and only line of eco-certified and carbon neutral household products.

Simone Rocha Fall 2013
It was a family affair at Simone Rocha's show. Her father, the Hong Kong–born designer John Rocha, was sitting in the front row with her Irish mother, Odette, who works with Simone on sales and the sourcing of her fabrics. Her brother Max Rocha was in charge of music. And Simone's collection was all about her two grannies, Margaret Gleeson on the Irish side and Cecelia Rocha on the Chinese side. She called it "Respect Your Elders."
All that might make Simone Rocha sound like a bit of a spoiled goody-two-shoes, but that idea could be instantly dispelled by looking at her shoes—stompingly inspired loafers, lace-ups, and, this season, granny slippers, all grounded in her signature chunky Lucite heels. What she does has immense charm and freshness, but this girl's no princess.
She's been through the two-year boot camp that is professor Louise Wilson's Central Saint Martins M.A. course, from which student designers do not escape without knowing that their work must be original, about themselves, technically impeccable, and, ideally, a commercial success.
So this collection, charmingly but not cloyingly, was about Simone's affection for her grandmothers, and her slightly child's-eye view of going to family gatherings, church, weddings, and funerals in Ireland and Hong Kong—hence the half-veiled hats and velvet-bow Alice bands. Irish granny, she said, "was all about a trouser," whereas Hong Kong granny "was the fake fur, and all kinds of synthetics." She didn't mention who wore the spectacles, but there they were, eccentrically hand-crocheted around upswept frames.
This talent for minimal yet characterful accessories shapes a delightfully coherent collection that strikes a great balance between fun and wearability. Rocha used Pepto Bismol–pink (a very London color this season) to make vivid princess coats, dresses, and short skirts with a bouncy, bustle-ly half-peplum at the back—all in sporty synthetic mesh. The fake-fur granny's influence was exerted in leopard-spot coats, pencil skirts, and paired with shirt collars, and in lime-tinted fluffy suiting. At its heart, the collection's silhouette was pretty simple, easy to understand, and completely translatable into real-life situations. No wonder she's being picked up by retailers like Dover Street Market and others as a rising star with a story that sells.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - Jimmy Dunster scored a career-high four goals and Steven Rastivo made 12 saves in his first career start to lead sixth-ranked North Carolina to a 12-7 victory over Dartmouth in men's lacrosse action Tuesday night at Fetzer Field. The Tar Heels played from behind much of the game before Dunster helped lead a 7-1 Carolina scoring run over the last 17:38 to pull away for the victory.
UNC had several standout individual performances in the game. Dunster matched his career high for goals in a game, a figure he also had against Duke in last year's NCAA quarterfinals. Freshman Nicky Galasso matched his career high for points with five as he scored twice and added three assists. He also had five points in the season opener against Robert Morris. FreshmanR.G. Keenan won 18 face-offs which also matched his career high set twice previously this season against Navy and Duke. He went 18-for-21 at the X overall against the Big Green.
After a 14-9 loss to Duke last Thursday, UNC head coach Joe Breschi tweaked his starting lineup for the game against Dartmouth, which fell to 3-3 with the loss. Senior Emmit Kellar and freshman Jordan Smith started on close defense, both earning their first career starts in the process. Sophomore Steven Rastivo, who played in three games as a freshman in 2010, saw his first action of this season, making his first career start and making 12 saves while allowing only seven goals.
Besides the big numbers from Dunster and Galasso, Marcus Holman had two goals for UNC, Pat Foster had a goal and an assist and Mark McNeill, Billy Bitter and R.G. Keenan also scored goals. It was the first career goal for Keenan.
Nikki Dysenchuk had two goals and an assist for Dartmouth while Rhett Miller also scored twice for Coach Andy Towers' team. Drew Tunney, Jo DeChiaro and Colin Delaney also scored goals for Dartmouth.
Carolina improved to 6-2 on the season with the victory. Two of the key stats in the game for Carolina were the play at the X where UNC won 18 of 23 and the ground ball area where UNC dominated 34-16, including 10-2 in the fourth quarter when the Tar Heels outscored the Big Green 10-2. Just last Thursday in the five-goal loss against Duke, UNC lost the ground ball battle 36-23 and Coach Joe Breschi had put a big emphasis on improving those numbers heading into the game with Dartmouth. Sixteen different Tar Heels contributed to the ground ball total led by Keenan with eight.Marcus Holman, Ryan Creighton, Mark McNeill and Charlie McComas all had three ground balls for UNC.
Dartmouth was able to solve Rastivo early, scoring on its first two shots on goal. Rhett Miller scored an unassisted goal 2:39 into the match and just 1:46 later Drew Tunney dodged a defender on the left side for another goal to make it 2-0 Dartmouth.
The Tar Heels bounced back, however, and dented the scoreboard on an extra-man goal by Marcus Holman, assisted by Pat Foster, with 5:14 left in the first quarter. The goal came 26 seconds after Dartmouth's Austin Cohen was penalized for slashing. The Heels then tied the game at 2-2 just 1:59 later as Dunster scored the first of his four goals. All four of his goals on the night were unassisted.
Dartmouth regained a two-goal advantage midway through the second quarter, scoring a pair of fast break goals. After Fergus Campbell saved a shot by Galasso with 11:33 left in the second quarter, the Big Green quickly cleared the ball and scored nine seconds later with John DiChiaro scoing off an assist by Nikki Dysenchuk. A little less than two minutes later, Ben Rossman forced a turnover by Duncan Hutchins leading to a fast break with Dysenchuk scoring off an assist by Adam Boardman with 8:38 to play in the first half.
The Tar Heels were able to get back to even before halftime. Holman scored his second goal of the game, assisted by Nicky Galasso at 6:13. Dartmouth won the ensuing face-off but Rastivo made a save on a shot by Patrick Resch. UNC cleared the ball successfully with attackman Drew Tunney being flagged for an illegal body check on the clear. North Carolina cashed in 20 seconds later as Galasso scored on a rocket from about 18 yards out off an assist byDuncan Hutchins. Both teams were able to kill off EMO chances in the last three minutes of the half as the teams went to the locker room tied at 4-4.
Neither team scored in the opening six minutes of the third quarter. The Tar Heels then forced a turnover on a clear and Ryan Creighton picked up the ball and led the break. Creighton fed Galasso for the score that put the Heels up 5-4 with 8:54 left in the third quarter. Over four minutes later the Big Green had a long possession that resulted in a stall warning. But Dartmouth stayed disciplined and Colin Delaney scored off an assist by Kip Dooley with 4:32 left in the third quarter. Delaney also drew a penalty on the play. UNC won the face-off but Holman turned the ball over and Dartmouth capitalized on the EMO on the other end with Miller winning a ground ball after his initial shot was blocked and scoring on the second chance with 3:29 left in the third quarter.
That would be Dartmouth's last lead of the game. The Tar Heels scored a minute later with Pat Foster finishing on the crease after taking a feed from behind by Galasso. Just a half minute later Dunster blistered a shot past Ferguson from 15 yards out to put the Heels up 7-6. They never trailed again. Dartmouth had three shots in the final minute of the third quarter but was unable to get the equalizer as the team's headed into the fourth with UNC ahead 7-6.
The Tar Heels got their first two-goal lead of the game 1:48 into the fourth quarter. Foster hit the pipe with a shot and it proved fortuitous as Dunster jumped on the ground ball and scored on the crease for an 8-6 lead with 13:12 to play.
Neither team scratched for over 10 minutes after that before a flurry of scoring in the last 2:20 of the game. Dunster got his fourth goal at 2:20 and Mark McNeill scored unassisted 26 seconds later to make it 10-6 with 1:54 to play. Dartmouth countered with a goal on an underhanded low to high shot by Dysenchuk, his second of the game, with 1:40 left. The Heels then put the game away with a goal by Billy Bitter, assisted by Galasso, with 37 seconds left in the game, and Keenan's first career goal six seconds later after his 18th face-off win of the night.
UNC was outshot in each of the first three quarters but it had a 13-7 edge in the fourth quarter to end the game with a 36-35 shot margin. Dartmouth goalkeeper Fergus Campbell was hot in the first half, making six saves while allowing only four goals. The Tar Heels got to him in the second half, however, scoring on eight of their 11 shots on goal in the second 30 minutes.
Both teams did well in the clearing game with Dartmouth going 16 of 18 and UNC 17 of 19. Dartmouth committed 11 turnovers compared to 15 for the Tar Heels. UNC came into the match ranked second in the nation in fewest turnovers per game but they had three more than its average on Tuesday. Dartmouth finished 1 of 2 on extra-man while the Tar Heels were 2 of 5.
Carolina has a quick turnaround as it plays fifth-ranked Maryland on Saturday at 12 noon at Byrd Stadium in College Park, Md. The game will be nationally televised on ESPNU. The Tar Heels beat the Terrapins 9-7 last year in the regular season in Chapel Hill before falling to the Terps 13-5 in the ACC Tournament semifinals at Byrd Stadium last April.

I've been reading the online php documentation but I find it to be over my head a lot of the time, so thought I'd ask this (probably) simple question here.
Rather than putting a note on the search page instructing the user to hit reload/refresh in their browser each time they land on the page using the back button, I'd like to include some coding to make that happen automatically.
I've tried including: <meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache"><meta http-equiv="expires" content="-1"> in the head area but that doesn't clear the fields. I've also tried adding (instead of the previous code) <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="600"> but that doesn't work either.
Any suggestions? I know this is more an html question than php but since the search fields are inside php tags I figured I'd better ask here, just in case.
Hi Helen,
I know that you are asking about this in a PHP forum, so you could use a form button called 'clear' with the only input in the form being hidden. and post back to Self, then the form that had the values would clear.
If you were willing to use javascript you could use AJAX and clear the values without having to refresh/reload the page.
Thanks Mittineague. I've found the following javascript, which is supposed to trigger when the user leaves the page but it's not working for me. I've tried it in the  area and also just before the  tag:

I've also looked for some AJAX coding, as Steve suggested, but all I can find are ones which keep refreshing every x seconds, which isn't what I need. I just need a search form field to be cleared if a person uses it to find something, then hits the back button to go back to the search form. There are 5 different options on the search form but they can only search for one at a time, which is why I need the previous one to automatically clear if possible.
Here is one solution that uses both.
<?php session_start(); ?>

if( $_SESSION['js_clear_active'] == FALSE) {?>
<form id="my_form" action='./next.php'>
First name: <input type="text" name="fname" />

Last name: <input type="text" name="lname" />

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
<form id='php_clear_form' action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8">
<input type="submit" name="clear" value="Reset Form">
<?php } else {?>
<form id="my_form" action='./next.php'>
First name: <input type="text" name="fname" />

Last name: <input type="text" name="lname" />

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
<input type="button" name="reset_form" value="Reset Form" onclick="this.form.reset();">
<?php }?>
You use the

To determine if JavaScript is turned on. It run only if JavaScript can parse the script tag and will call a simple php page test7.php:

$_SESSION['js_clear_active'] = TRUE;
If you test it with JavaScript turned on first then to test that Javascript off works you will need to issue a $SESSION['jsclear_active'] = 0; command to clear the session; otherwise your script clear button will appear but have not javascript support. Once you issue $SESSION['jsclear_active'] = 0; then comment it out and try with Javascript off.
If you decide to use this then you should get the session to clear more cleanly.
Hope this helps,Steve
Oh - wow! Thanks Steve! I'll try and get my brain around it and add it to the page. It sounds perfect, if I can figure out where everything belongs. I'm still on a steep learning curve with this stuff but it becomes clearer every day.
Yes yucky learning curves getting in the way of our brilliant ideas
Here are a few things to consider:[LIST][*]The session_start() must go at the top of your php page before anything has outputed. This means that you can't have a space after '<?php' or you'll get an error 'headers already sent...'[*]This is not AJAX, but that gets more complicated so I kept it simpler[*]You run the  before the forms and the php branching logic.[*]You can run a  tag directly after the

Maybe you guys can try /etc/init.d/wicd start or iwconfig wlan0 up "wlan0" being the name of your wireless adapter....not sure if this will make a difference in your guys case or not. Just thought I might put my 2 cents in : )

SL makes Webb first female league prez
Industry trailblazer began as executive assistant in 1994
By Benjamin Hill / MLB.com | July 20, 2012 9:48 AM ET
Until now.
On Thursday, the Double-A Southern League announced that, effective Aug. 1, Lori Webb will assume presidency of the circuit. She replaces the late Don Mincher, a Major League slugger turned influential executive who was at the helm of the league from 2000-11. (Following Mincher's retirement in October of that year, Mississippi Braves general manager Steve DeSalvo stepped in as interim president while the league launched a search for a replacement.)
Webb is well aware of her new-found status as a baseball industry trailblazer but remarks that, in her view, it's a "sidebar more so than a headline."
"I realize that it's a milestone, but it was never a personal goal of mine. It's just the natural progression of my own career in the Southern League," she said Friday morning. "I've found over the years that women in baseball are very smart, creative and hard-working at all levels of the business, and they obviously deserve the same opportunities as their male counterparts. But I want this to be about my experience, passion and determination to do a good job, and I hope that trumps whether I'm male or female."
Webb is a native of Seneca Falls, N.Y., which she proudly notes is known as the birthplace of women's rights. In 1848, Seneca Falls hosted a convention that resulted in the "Declaration of Sentiments," a key document in the then-nascent movement for women's suffrage.
While she enjoyed attending Minor League contests in nearby Geneva and Auburn and cheering on her two sons at youth baseball games, Webb says that she "had no idea about the business side" of the equation. This changed in 1994, when she took a position as an executive assistant to then-Southern League president Arnold Fielkow. That position led to a vice president of operations position, and, when Mincher assumed the presidency in 2000, Webb earned the title of corporate secretary and treasurer.
"Don Mincher provided me with the opportunity to spread my wings, and he gave me more and more responsibility each year. I have very big shoes to fill," said Webb. "He was very wise as far as business decisions went, and it was wonderful to pick his brain about different things and to try to get a different perspective. The best advice he ever gave me was 'Sleep on it. It'll look different in the morning.' I've taken that to heart, not only in my job but in my personal life as well."
Webb's ascension to Southern League president has been met with accolades throughout the industry.
"Lori Webb has earned the trust and confidence of Southern League members over the years, particularly by her professionalism and performance since Don Mincher's retirement last October," Tennessee Smokies president and Southern League advisory committee chairman Doug Kirchhofer said in a statement.
Minor League Baseball president Pat O'Conner offered similarly laudatory remarks.
"Lori Webb's selection as Southern League president is significant in many ways," said O'Conner. "First, it is worthy recognition of Lori's talents and years of dedicated service to the Southern League. Secondly, it is groundbreaking that the Southern League named a female to lead the league into the 21st century."
Webb will now turn her focus to the issues facing the Southern League as it positions itself for continued growth.
"We're opening a new ballpark next spring in Birmingham, and looking forward to getting that done," said Webb. "And there's always the ongoing matter of sustaining the league and continuing to grow attendance. That has been tough with the economy the way it is, but our biggest goal is to make it the best it can be. [Minor League Baseball] is a little bit of Americana, and we wish everyone could go to the games. Because once you see it, you realize what a wonderful thing it is."
This unwavering belief in the enduring vitality and beauty of the game of baseball will sustain Webb as she tackles whatever issues that may lie ahead.
"I feel so lucky to wake up every morning and know that my job is in baseball," she said. "It's an awfully exciting world to live in, and just part of who I am."

Red Cross Urges Caution After Too Many Home Fires
Because of the large number of recent home fires, the The American Red Cross of Scioto Valley is urging citizens to pay extra attention to fire prevention.
Within the last seven days, volunteers and staff have assisted those impacted by ten home fires in the four-county area, which includes Fayette, Madison, Pickaway and Ross Counties. While exact statistics aren't immediately available, this represents an unusually high number of home fires in a short period of time.
Red Cross volunteers have helped more than 25 people, at least five of them children, during the recent rash of home fires in the four-county area. Nearly $5 thousand in financial assistance has been provided to those impacted, along with recovery kits, hygiene items, and hotel stays when necessary.
Tips to help avoid experiencing a fire emergency can be found at RedCross.org.

GSA Opens 2007 GovEnergy Conference
Forum Celebrates 10 Years with Spotlight on Helping Feds Reduce Energy Use, Costs
August 6, 2007
Contact: Deborah K. Ruiz, (202) 501-1231
MaryAnne Beatty (202) 501-1231
New Orleans – The 2007 GovEnergy Conference, geared to help federal agencies reduce energy use and costs and to meet requirements outlined in the Energy Policy Act of 2005, opens today, the U.S. General Services Administration announced.
GSA is a co-sponsor of the event with the Departments of Defense, Energy, Veterans Affairs and Homeland Security as well as the Environmental Protection Agency.
"GSA, in accordance with President Bush's directive and our national goal of energy independence, makes available a wide assortment of environment-friendly goods, services and workspace," said GSA Administrator Lurita Doan. "As the federal government's premier acquisition agency, I urge all agencies to learn more about our offerings at this conference and allow GSA to help them meet their environmental goals."
Now in its 10th year, the GovEnergy conference is typically attended by federal, state, and local energy managers as well as others involved in energy management. By attending, they gain the opportunity to benefit from available training sessions, networking and educational credits. Nearly 200 experts from around the country participate in the event, sharing their experiences, knowledge and ideas with attendees.
More than 80 sessions cover everything from renewables, metering strategies and new technology during the 2007 GovEnergy conference; however, the event also features a multi-million dollar showcase of products, equipment, and services from more than 100 companies and consultants. Hundreds of manufacturers are expected to display and share the latest technology advances in the energy efficiency industry.
The 2007 GovEnergy conference also includes nine tracks for energy and facility professionals, including such sessions as: Improving Building Operations; Finance & Funding; Gumbo; Legislation, Policy & Leadership; Metering; Procurement - and All That Jazz; Renewable Energy; Strategy & Tactics; and New Technology.
Founded in 1949, GSA serves as a centralized procurement and property management agency for the federal government. GSA manages more than one-fourth of the government's total procurement dollars and influences the management of $500 billion in federal assets, including 8,300 government-owned or leased buildings and 205,000 vehicles. GSA helps preserve our past and define our future, as a steward of more than 420 historic properties, and as manager of USA.gov, the official portal to federal government information and services. GSA's mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and E-Gov travel solutions and management policies, at best value, allows federal agencies to focus on their core missions.
Did You Know? The federal government spends $10 billion annually on energy for its facilities and operations, including the federal vehicle fleet.

Did you know?
Early Portuguese explorers named the bay 'Bahia Formosa', or beautiful bay.
Plettenberg Bay is one of South Africa's best-known seaside resorts, famous for its gorgeous white beaches, expansive lagoons, lazy rivers and red sandstone cliffs. It's also home to the Plettenberg Bay reefs that encircle the bay.
Plettenberg Bay boasts some of the finest soft coral reefs in the world, haunt of starfish, sponges, shellfish and one of South Africa's star marine attractions – the rare pansy shell.
If it's scuba diving you're after, then head for Pro Dive at the Beacon Isle Resort. You can hire some, or all, of your gear there, take lessons (including lessons for kids from eight upwards) and then choose to dive the coral reef that most attracts you.
Shore dives on offer include Redbait Reef, known as the Bay's 'house reef', which is great for beginners or the less-experienced diver. It's easily accessible from the beach and its plentiful natural light is a boon to the underwater photographer.
Buy a cheap disposable underwater camera if you've never tried this before and snap up reef fish, cuttlefish, sharks, sea urchins, anemones and squishy sponges.
You'll need to swim a short way to reach Shallow Blinders, a 3-pinnacled coral reef that nurtures dozens of fish. Check out ragged-tooth, pyjama and leopard sharks plus rays, octopus, cuttlefish and boxfish.
Swim a bit further out to Blinders Reef where the Wall awaits you: a technicolour dream of soft coral and its many denizens, including orange wall sponges, blue choirboys, strawberry anemones and, everywhere you look, multi-coloured coral.
If you're a fisherman, take your rod out to sea and hope for blacktail, red roman, yellowbelly rock cod or the extremely tasty galjoen.

Where to stay
As one of the country's most popular seaside resorts, Plettenberg Bay does not lack for accommodation options. Do, however, book well in advance.

2 Tablespoons Active Dry Yeast
1 Cup plus 2 Tablespoons Warm Water
1/3 Cup Oil *I used canola
1/4 Cup Sugar
1 Egg *I used 2 T. milled flax seed mixed with 3 T. warm water as my egg replacement
1 Teaspoon Salt
2 Cups All-Purpose
or White Bread Flour
1 1/2 to 1 3/4 Cups Whole Wheat Flour
In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Stir in the oil and sugar, and let the mixture stand for 5 minutes.
Add the egg replacer, salt, white flour, and 1 1/2 cups of the wheat flour, combining until it forms a soft dough. Add the additional 1/4 cup of wheat flour as needed to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands (if you need a little more, that is okay too). Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes or so.
Divide the dough into 8 pieces, shape each into a thick disc, and place them on baking sheets about 3 inches apart. My girls enjoyed helping with this part.
Preheat your oven to 425ºF. Lightly cover the balls of dough and let them rest for about 10 minutes (or longer if you wish).
Pop them in the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until nicely browned. Cool on a wire rack.
*everything sat a little longer than suggested because I was busy…. parenting.
For those of you not familiar with my blog, my son is allergic to eggs (and nuts) so I have to modify my recipes. Sometimes things turn out great, like these rolls, and sometimes….well….sometimes, not so great.

text: After cheating on his wife Elizabeth Vargas during her stint in rehab back in November and not really ever stopping, Marc Cohn and his wife have decided to call it quits after 12 years of marriage. Over the weekend Elizabeth Vargas had a pretty big slip and has put herself back in rehab. The last time she was in rehab she didn't really have much of a chance to just focus on her sobriety because of what Cohn was doing while she was there. Then she gets out, goes back to work, watches their two kids while Marc keeps pretending he is a huge rock star instead of a one hit wonder. Yes, it is a very good song, but he acts like he is the best thing ever. For his part, Marc's rep did say that Marc supports Elizabeth in her fight to get sober. It is not like he could say he didn't support her, but at least he did have someone release a positive statement when he could have just stayed quiet. Their two kids are with him while Elizabeth is in rehab.

Miss your Downton Abbey pals? We found them on a mission for bears
By Barbara Kessler
Green Right Now
The days of locking up bears for life to extract their stomach bile (yes you heard that right) may be numbered.
Comedian/actor Ricky Gervais is reporting today about a bear bile farm in China where the owner has decided to quit the business and free the bears. This is a delicate matter, obviously, because the 130 bears won't be able to fend for themselves in the wild, so the farm is being converted to a sanctuary and education center by Peace by Piece, a project of Animals Asia.
Perhaps the market for bile (ew), which is used in traditional medicine (the quackery end of that business), is waning.
You waited for it. Here's your Downton fix.

Jason Sudeikis: Chilling with Terry Richardson in Rome!
He's a man of many talents, and Jason Sudeikis got to play 'male model' for Terry Richardson during a recent rooftop photo shoot.
The "Horrible Bosses" hunk looked cool and casual as he worked his mojo for the camera, also posing with Richardson and wearing his iconic plastic-rimmed glasses.
Meanwhile, Jason also stopped by "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" to talk about his gig playing both Mitt Romney and Joe Biden on "Saturday Night Live."
Though he hammered Romney pretty hard during the campaign, Jason shared, "The guy's more human than we ever give him credit for."

Chiefland city commissioners may have found a way out of a bidding contract to fix a still-festering mold problem at City Hall.
At the Jan. 14 meeting, four construction companies vying to fix the problem were ranked by staff for approval, yet commissioners declined to choose, hoping instead for more time to finagle a better deal. At Monday's regular meeting, commissioners were presented with the same four options, though, by the end, they had unanimously agreed to both stall awarding the bid and call for a second opinion on an already-completed mold remediation plan.

Kmart & Sears drop Paula Deen
(TMZ) - Paula Deen can't apologize enough to stop the bleeding - Kmart and Sears are now cutting ties with her in the wake of the n-word controversy, TMZ has learned.
Sears Holdings - owner of Sears and Kmart stores - tells TMZ, "After careful consideration of all available information, we have made the decision to phase out all products tied to [Paula Deen's] brand."
But the retail giants - which carry Deen's cookware and dishware lines - seem to be guilty of a little fence-sitting, because they added, "We will continue to evaluate the situation."

An Old Boy's Club
Ask a random Congress person about how Congress runs and odds are their response would sound a little something like, "It operates pretty much like an old boy's club, please excuse me, I need hard candy." Needless to say, the climate of Congress has not changed in YEARS (The newly elected Congress brags an average age of 58.2 years old). Representatives get re-elected by overwhelming majorities despite being convicted of 11 ethics violations (looking at you Charlie Rangel). I would support the sentiment, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" however the truth of the matter is that it is broke. Someone needs to get into Washington and change the very fabric that binds it together. Someone like a woman.

I would like to be a vampire, due to that you can spend internity with the person you love the most and the family you have created with that other vampire. Like what Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, Esme Cullen and Carlisle Cullen, Rosalie Hale and Emmett Cullen and Alice Cullen and Jasper Hale did, plus many other vampires around the world. Plus I think that it is a romantic notation to do that, you can never get any humanane illness's and most of all age.

'Regier says, "The only thing I can tell you, the league has told us…that the Globe and Mail report was not correct. I would be surprised if it, if everything wasn't league wide." There is a huge difference between a league wide revenue based cap, and a team-by-team based cap. A team-by-team cap wouldn't benefit the Sabres all that much, and wouldn't even the playing field, because the cap would be a percentage of the team revenue.'
