Provo • One of the players the BYU Cougars could least afford to lose on their struggling offensive line will have to sit out the next 2-4 weeks with a slight groin tear.
Senior center Braden Hansen aggravated the injury in Saturday's 17-14 loss at Notre Dame, and an MRI revealed the tear, head athletic trainer Jeff Hurst said after Monday's practice.
"We are just going to take it as it comes, and see how he does," Hurst said. "He's resting right now. He's pretty sore right now."
Hurst said whether Hansen comes back after two, three or four weeks of rest depends on his pain tolerance level and whether he can perform his tasks as the center. Hansen becomes the sixth offensive lineman to miss games this year due to injury.
Coach Bronco Mendenhall said defensive tackle Tui Crichton will temporarily move to the offensive line to add depth to the position. Sophomore Blair Tushaus, who filled in at center when Hansen went out in the third quarter, will get the start there against Georgia Tech on Saturday (1 p.m. MDT, ROOT Sports).
"Absolutely huge [blow]," said BYU quarterback Riley Nelson regarding the loss of Hansen. "I mean, a senior, and a leader, and the center, and someone who has started ... basically every game he has played here, and so it is humongous. But we are going to do our best to try and fill it."
Stephenson honored
BYU punter Riley Stephenson is the FBS Independent Special Teams Player of the Week after helping the Cougars in the field-position battle against Notre Dame. Stephenson punted six times for 46.8 yard average. He had three punts go longer than 50 yards, and two were downed inside ND's 20-yard line. The senior is fifth among FBS punters with a 46.6 average.
Hoffman on the rise
Junior receiver Cody Hoffman moved into ninth place on the school's career receiving touchdowns list, with 20, after catching a 6-yarder from Nelson in the second quarter against Notre Dame. He can catch Mike Chronister and Dennis Pitta with one more TD reception.
"It was great. It has been a good time. The atmosphere has been exactly what I thought it would be like. It was fun to play here," Hoffman said after the 27th straight game in which he has caught a pass.
Hoffman is the 29th-leading receiver in the country with 620 yards on 49 receptions.
Hurst said running back Adam Hine (knee injury) is "getting closer" to returning to action and could participate in practice on Tuesday for the first time in quite a while. ... Nelson is No. 3 on the school's rushing yardage list for a quarterback, with 768 net rushing yards. ... The Cougars are 5-5 in their last 10 games decided by seven points or fewer. Before that, they had won 14 straight games decided by seven points or fewer.

McDonald's Worker Sues: Payment Method 'Unfair'
(NEWSER) – A Pennsylvania woman who says a McDonald's franchise told her she could only be paid via a fee-laden debit card has launched a class-action suit. Single mother Natalie Gunshannon says she went to a lawyer after the restaurant refused to pay her by check or direct deposit, insisting that she use the card, the Times-Leader reports. The card fees—including $1.50 for ATM withdrawals and $5 for withdrawing money from a bank teller—would have brought her pay below minimum wage, she says. "People should be paid fairly and not have to pay fees to get their wages."

Each year, Tools of the Trade pays tribute to the people whose insight and effort over the years have helped to create or inspire the tools we use today. These are the pioneers whose inventions and ideas not only revolutionized the tool world then, but also set the stage for the way we work today. Few in construction will have difficulty recognizing the inventions of Albert J. Swanson and Donald Wright; and likely few get through a day without reaching for them. So the next time you open your toolbox, reflect on the tools that come to hand and be thankful that people like Swanson and Wright had the vision to put them there.
Albert J. Swanson
Carpenter created the Speed Square
As every carpenter knows, rafter squares are actually manual calculators with inscribed tables for figuring measurements and angles for rafters, stair layouts, and much more. Mastering this complex tool is both a challenge and a rite of passage for anyone who works with lumber; it can seem incomprehensible at first, and some carpenters don't even make the effort. But squares are an essential tool on any job. So although every guy on the deck might not have a framing square, most keep a handy alternative–a Swanson Speed Square–stuck in their nail aprons.
In 1925 a young Swedish-American carpenter named Albert J. Swanson also became frustrated with the complexity and clumsiness of the rafter square. So at night he went home and worked out a way to determine lumber cuts using a smaller tool with a simpler yet equally effective "one-number" calculating method.
It took Swanson three years to get his speed squares right, and at first he made them just for the carpenters he worked with. When he moved to Chicago from Iowa to help build the new Drake Hotel and homes on the booming South Side, his square caught the attention of Montgomery Ward, and in 1930 the big catalog retailer began producing the tools under the name "Lakeside Squares." Later, ownership of the product returned to Swanson and the squares became widely known under his own brand name.
The Allemand family purchased the business in 1989 and has been producing Speed Squares ever since, adding useful features and increasing the number of variations to more than 50 from the original, "one-size-fits-all-pockets" square.
Donald Wright
Created the Mono-vial level
When Donald Wright, a pharmacist by trade, married into the family-owned Empire Level Mfg. Corp. in 1953 it's doubtful he could have foreseen the revolutionary contributions he would ultimately make in the industry.
Wright had big shoes to fill–company founder Henry Ziemann produced the first level with replaceable bubble vials and Ziemann's son Harry was responsible for developing the torpedo level. But Wright proved up to the task. In 1967, he patented the first permanently embedded single-bubble vial, an innovation that would forever change the way levels were built. The Mono-vial level "really revolutionized the industry," says Jennifer Becker, Wright's granddaughter and Empire/s current president. "For the first time, the vial became the level itself."
Under Wright's leadership, Empire introduced the magnetic level, the top-reading level, and the first all-plastic level. Wright also developed the grade lines on bubble levels for reading pitch angles.
Empire now holds 30 patents and claims more improvements to this simple yet essential tool than any other manufacturer, thanks in large part to a son-in-law who earned his way into the family.

Backing up personal data, including SMS conversations, has always been absent from Windows Phone. We've previously looked at how the Windows Phone Connector for Mac enables such functionality to a degree as well as a Homebrew Windows backup manager, but it's always best to have such a feature built into Windows Phone.
In Windows Phone 8 Microsoft has implemented a backup facility that automatically stores SMS conversations and app list (including settings) information, as well as options to control how Windows Phone deals with uploading photos and videos captured using the handset. Using Microsoft's cloud services, conversations and app settings are all automatically stored.

The Beautiful and Damned tells the story of Anthony Patch (a 1920s socialite and presumptive heir to a tycoon's fortune), his relationship with his wife Gloria, his service in the army, and alcoholism. The novel provides an excellent portrait of the Eastern elite as the Jazz Age begins its ascent, engulfing all classes into what will soon be known as Café Society.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
This edition includes a detailed account of the composition of the novel, a textual apparatus, a chronology of composition, and, uniquely, three versions of the ending. Explanatory notes situate The Beautiful and Damned in its times and deepen the reader's understanding of Fitzgerald's sources for the novel.From the Inside Flap:
Following the great critical and financial success of his first novel, This Side of Paradise, F. Scott Fitzgerald published The Beautiful and the Damned in 1922. An immediate success upon its first publication, Fitzgerald's second novel is a dazzling portrait of love and life among the beautiful people. Through the story of two newlyweds, Anthony Patch of New York and Gloria Gilbert of Kansas City, Fitzgerald flawlessly captures the heady atmosphere and jaded values of the Jazz Age. Patch, expecting to become the sole heir to his grandfather's millions, embraces a life of endless parties and intellectual pretensions. In Gloria, he finds an exquisite ornament and a passionate lover. The couple whirls through days that mirror Fitzgerald's own--a fast life amid a smart set for which there is never enough cash. Beginning with wit and clever repartee, The Beautiful and the Damned quickly becomes a scathing chronicle of a dying marriage and a hedonistic society where beauty is all too fleeting. Through the character of Richard Caramel, a successful hack writer whose talent fails as he prospers, Fitzgerald caricatures himself. But today's readers will find an even more poignant self-portrait of Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda in Anthony and Gloria, a couple whose days of wine and roses fade quickly toward a tragic end.

The Lakewood Education Foundation will dole out $42,000 in grants to teachers today at a celebration marking the 10th anniversary of a program that benefits local classrooms.
The program, founded in 2003 by Councilman Todd Rogers and Steve Croft, provides grants each year of up to $500 each to Lakewood schoolteachers.
The idea came in an effort to raise money to help teachers pay for classroom supplies. The money is intended solely for teachers, not for administration costs, Rogers said.
"We'd read that the average teacher spends about $500 of his or her own money on classroom supplies every year," he said.
Each year teachers submit a one-page document telling specifically how they would directly improve the educational experience for students, Rogers said.
The first year the foundation awarded $3,000, he said. Last year, teachers received $45,000 in grants, and this year $42,000 will be doled out.
Recipients this year include teachers from the Long Beach, Bellflower, ABC and Paramount Unified school districts, along with St. Pancratius School.
The grants will go to
88 teachers - about half of the number who applied - to pay for art supplies, physical education equipment, iPads (many of which are for autistic students), laptop computers, a hand-held wireless response system and field trips.
No city funds are used to fund the grants and fundraising is done through the organization, Rogers said.
"This event is the highlight of the year for the organization. It's something we are happy to do because it's an extension of our commitment here in Lakewood to quality education," he said.
"It's not about us, but it's about the teachers and the great things they are doing for our students."
The awards ceremony is from 4 to 6 p.m. today at the Monte Verde Park, 4626 Shadeway Road, in Lakewood.

MA Christianity and Society
Tilburg University
School of Catholic Theology
The impact of Christianity on society can be felt around the world - in international politics, economy, arts and cultural ideologies.

Global Communication is a new, fully English-taught Master's specialization within the Master's program Culture Studies.
Modern life is seriously affected by globalization. Between cradle and grave you encounter thousands of situations in which you interact with people who do not share the same background as you. We are more mobile, fewer of us stay in the same place for all or most of our lives and our everyday contacts span many different social groups. In addition, the internet gives us unlimited access to people and information and enables us to communicate without being constrained by time and place. These aspects of globalization have made societies 'superdiverse'.
Living in a superdiverse world requires a flexible and expansive communicative repertoire. You need to be sensitive to variation in communicative behavior across social groups and across different settings, including offline and online modes of communication.
In the Master's specialization Global Communication the aim is to understand the communicative challenges of life in times of globalization and superdiversity. This entails knowing about the phenomena to which globalization gives rise, knowing about how people acquire and use the communicative skills one needs to succeed, knowing what roles education and policy making plays in this, and knowing about how all this contact between cultures or sub-cultures affects the people it concerns.
Career perspective Global Communication
Global Communication prepares you for a career in today's global, digital and cultural diverse society.
More specific, our alumni work as:
•PR coordinator
•Public communications specialist
•Communications coordinator
Educational Post-Master
Moreover, Dutch graduates have the possibility to follow a one year educational post-master to become a teacher.

The aim of the Master's program Management of Cultural Diversity at Tilburg University is:
First, to equip students with the necessary expertise, tools and skills to analyze cases of cultural diversity in organizations and societal fields like education, health care, labor market and arts and culture.
Second, based on such an analysis they will be able to design management interventions to neutralize the risks and to take advantage of the opportunities stemming from cultural diversity.
A master's program about the impact of globalization and intercultural communication:
Globalization means movement. People, images, symbols, information, capital, goods and so on increasingly move from one corner of the world to another and people communicate with other people many miles away. As a consequence, individual people are increasingly being confronted with (all kinds of) different influences and ideas from other parts of the world.
About collaboration between people with different cultural backgrounds and world views:
Global communication media like the internet and means of rapid transportation facilitate such encounters. The same holds true for multinational organizations that expand globally and thus incorporate people with all kinds of cultural orientations in their workforce.
Organizations and societal fields such as the labor market, education, health care and arts and culture are increasingly made up of employees and citizens with different identities and have to deal with customers and citizens with diverse orientations and world views.
Numerous questions are raised in this multicultural, multinational framework, such as:
•What does it mean to a hospital when patients with various religious beliefs need tailor-made care?
•How are production and service delivery affected when people from all parts of the world come together to communicate and work in a company?
•What are the consequences when citizens representing different identities, traditions, languages and beliefs send their children to mixed schools?
•Do people with different ethnic backgrounds get equal opportunities in the labor market?
Cultural diversity entails both risks and opportunities
•Risks: think of miscommunication, conflict and exclusion.
•Opportunities: think of innovating ideas, creativity and renewal of production and service delivery.
Consequently, there is need for management, policy and intervention to deal with these risks and opportunities, i.e. to neutralize the risks and take advantage of the opportunities presented by cultural diversity.
Do you want to identify these issues and provide management and policy solutions?
There are as yet no management and policy solutions available. New answers need to be developed in each specific case, place, organization or field based on a sound understanding of the issues involved at that moment and in that particular context.
Tilburg University is well-positioned to offer such a program. It has at its disposal of high-level and internationally oriented expertise in the various relevant academic fields, embodied by teaching staff firmly embedded in and intellectually nourished by relevant research programs.
Career Perspective Management of Cultural Diversity
The program offers a Master's career to prepare students for jobs focusing on management and policy intervention regarding cultural diversity in organizations and societal fields. The program will have an explicit international orientation so students are expected to find a place on the labor market in a variety of countries in Europe and beyond. Your work will either focus on management of a culturally diverse workforce within companies and organizations (profit and non-profit) or you will be working on policy development and implementation regarding issues of cultural diversity in society within governmental organizations or NGOs.

MA Philosophy, Science and Society
Tilburg University
School of Humanities
Decisions in society have important knowledge-related and ethical dimensions. They affect people's obligations, rights and liberties.
Read more
Decisions in society have important knowledge-related and ethical dimensions. They affect people's obligations, rights and liberties. At the same time, they are often based on scientific findings. Studying reliable and responsible decision-making requires philosophical reflection from various perspectives: we have to reason about human rationality, morality, political institutions and the science/society interface.
The program adopts an interdisciplinary angle where cutting-edge philosophical research is inspired by findings from psychology, economics and cognitive science. Upon graduating, you will be an expert on ethical and epistemic aspects of social decision-making and you will be able to demonstrate how philosophical analysis contributes to solving societal challenges.
Moreover, the Tilburg University MA specialization in Philosophy, Science and Society offers you:
•Teaching by international and experienced faculty members. The lecturers in the Philosophy, Science and Society MA specialization have a strong international teaching record, including countries such as Belgium, Germany, Italy, the United States, and the United Kingdom. There are also guest lecturers from Australia, Canada and the US.
•At the forefront of international research. Your teachers are also internationally leading researchers. The Tilburg Center for Logic, General Ethics and Philosophy of Science (TiLPS), the philosophy department's research platform, regularly organizes international conferences, workshops and seminars that you are invited to attend free of charge.
•Research-Based Learning. Our MA program is in the forefront of current trends and reflects the commitment to include the most recent state-of-the-art approaches and developments in the field of philosophy. From the first day of your stay in Tilburg, you will be confronted with the latest philosophical research, and you will assist your teachers in developing and testing new research results.
•Innovative Methods. The program combines traditional philosophical methods (conceptual analysis, dialectical reasoning, case studies, thought experiments) with recently developed approaches, such as experimental philosophy, simulations and abstract modeling of philosophical problems.
•A Broad Range of Scholarships. There are several attractive scholarships to which you can apply, awarded at university, school or department level. They are open for European and non-European students alike.
Career Perspective Philosophy, Science and Society
Still think that a philosophy degree is not attractive to employers? That it is not your best career choice? Then have a look at these articles from major newspapers and magazines:
•The Atlantic: "Is Philosophy the Most Practical Major?"
•Huffington Post: "The Unexpected Way Philosophy Majors Are Changing The World Of Business"
•The Guardian: "What can you do with a degree of philosophy?"
•The Guardian: "I think, therefore I earn. The rise in stock of philosophy graduates"
True, a philosophy MA is not a Master of Business Administration. But it is a much better career choice than the cliché pretends. You acquire reasoning, analysis and argumentation skills that can be used in various fields and are highly valued by most employers. You are also trained in clear and persuasive writing, creative thinking and devising original solutions to hard problems. This gives you great flexibility in your job choice.
In addition, the Philosophy, Science and Society specialization makes you a genuine expert on human cognition, social decision-making and the interplay between science and society. This involves hot topics such as the ethics of science, risk assessment and the legitimacy of technocratic decision-making. This expertise is sought for in government agencies, research institutes and the private sector. Companies may be especially interested in your expertise in moral reasoning and the impact of moral factors on decision-making.
After graduating, you can also continue your career as an academic researcher who has already acquired an interdisciplinary background and who can apply for PhD positions in various fields.

Ritual in Society is a renewed, fully English-taught Master's specialization within the Master's program Culture Studies.
Rituals are indispensable for human beings, in past and present. The important moments in human life are always highlighted by rituals. In addition to ritual's traditional function of marking key moments in human life, people assign great value to rituals as instruments to achieve social cohesion, as means of coping with grief and bereavement, and as powerful tools to remember the past. Apart from such a predominantly positive use of rituals, it should be noted that ritual is also a contested phenomenon. Ritual is all about inclusion and exclusion and about power and display in the public domain. Moreover, ritual is dynamic and fluid; it is an excellent gauge of cultural diversity and societal developments. Therefore, the study of ritual is of vital importance for understanding society.
Your lecturers are nationally and internationally renowned scholars who will introduce you to the field of ritual studies on the basis of their own research. They will present to you both the state of the art in ritual studies as well as the most recent developments in their various disciplines. The MA in Ritual in Society offers you a unique, multidisciplinary program with a focus on ritual dynamics in contemporary Europe with regular forays into the global context.
Career Perspective Ritual in Society
The program offers a Master's career to prepare students for jobs in areas ranging from research to the world of travel and tourism (travel agencies) and from education to consultancy and management. The program will have an explicit international orientation so students are expected to find jobs in the labor market in a variety of countries in Europe and beyond. More specifically, Ritual in Society prepares you for jobs in fields like:
•Research (PhD; contract research)
•Ritual facilitator
•Ritual consultancy
•Consultancy (culture; memory culture; museum)
•Editorial and publishing work
•Policy work (minorities policy; diversity)
•Project work
•Human Resource Management
•Scholarly Travel Agency

Art, Media and Society is a renewed, fully English-taught Master's specialization within the Master's program Culture Studies.
The Master's specialization in Art, Media and Society focuses on the transformations that cultural products undergo as a result of digitalization and globalization. In this program you will analyze how digital cultural products and artefacts critically reflect societal issues, such as the financial crisis, the rise of populism or the 'tyranny of intimacy' of social media. Furthermore, you will investigate the public impact of activities carried out by a range of different authors and artists. You will use theories and analytical tools to understand what is at stake here. Central questions are: How can art reshape the public sphere? What are new dimensions of information in the current public sphere?
As a student of Art, Media and Society, you take an interdisciplinary approach to media and art in the modern digital and culturally diverse society, and find yourself at the interface between culture, media, aesthetics and politics.
In this Master's program, you study digital cultural products and artefacts in contemporary society: phenomena of high and mass culture as well as fashion and advertising, narrative forms of expression such as journalism and personal blogging, as well as literature and visual art focusing on varied purposes: to articulate human rights, to challenge neoliberal development, and to forge alternative local and transnational solidarities. You investigate how information circulates in various contexts, what the social, political and ethical implications are of cultural products, and how roles of producing and consuming these products are negotiated.
In addition, you study theories about the way cultural products and artefacts are experienced and responded to. You practice and further develop your ability to communicate your knowledge and to define, formulate, develop and implement projects. The purpose of the Master's specialization in Art, Media and Society is to educate professionals with clear profiles.
Career Perspective Art, Media and Society
Art, media and society prepares you for a career in today's global, digital and cultural diverse society. An average of 80 % of our students finds a job within a year after graduating. Our alumni work in the (online) media sector, in education, as programmer of film, theater, festival or debate. The third unit of the Master's program is especially focused on developing the specific role of the cultural scholar in society.
The program prepares you for a job in the cultural sector, or the media sector, in which you have to organize, analyze, interpret, write and present.

For several decades, car manufacturers have been engineering to meet Corporate Average Fuel Economy, or CAFÉ standards. Currently at 27.5 mpg, the requirement increases to 35.5 mpg for the 2016 model year. And if that seems like a difficult target, some are speculating that 47 mpg to 62 mpg are in the works for 2025.
Obviously, these do not pertain to trucks. They are for class 1 passenger cars and light-duty vans and pickups. But commercial vehicles, like those operated by concrete producers, have not escaped government interest. They range from class 2 (250/2500 series) pickup trucks to class 8 ready-mix trucks and tractor-trailers.
Commercial vehicles comprise just 4 percent of the on- and on/off-road universe, but they consume 20 percent of vehicle fuel. Recognizing that, the government is preparing regulations for our segments of the transportation industry.
Under the direction of President Obama, the EPA and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) are proposing new fuel economy and emissions standards for commercial vehicles. The standards are to be based on 2010 trucks.
Model year 2010 is a significant starting point for measuring improvement. It represents the final phase of particulate and gaseous emissions reductions for diesel engines. Starting in the late 1990s, EPA proposed three levels of emissions reductions.
Industry was given a reasonably long lead time to engineer the first reductions. For model year 2004, nitrogen oxides (NOx) were limited to 2.4 grams per horsepower hour (g/hp-hr). But because the Clinton Administration accused engine makers of cheating on previous standards to achieve better fuel economy, the 2004 standards were moved up by 15 months to October 2002.
For 2007, particulate matter (soot, unburned fuel, lube oil evaporations, and ash) were limited to 0.01 g/hp-hr, and NOx to 1.2 g/hp-hr. In 2010, NOx was further reduced to just 0.2 g/hp-hr.
That had to do with diesel engines alone. The new EPA/NHTSA proposal involves the total vehicle. The initial plan is to cut carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases by 20 percent compared to 2010, starting in 2014. By 2018, average fuel consumption will be reduced 20 percent.
Changing the measure
Measurement will no longer be in miles-per-gallon. To reflect work done, pay-load will be considered. The new metric will be grams of CO2 per ton-mile and gallons of fuel per 1000 ton-miles.
For any given state of the economy, there is a finite amount of product to be shipped. That could be bushels of produce to the supermarket, tons of steel to the fabricator, or in our case, yards of concrete to the jobsite.
Concentrating only on exhaust emissions, as EPA has until now, restricts innovation. Now that emissions are about as low as they can practically get, focusing on emissions and fuel efficiency per ton-mile opens up new areas for research.
For example, we can tweak engines to get a few more tenths of a mile per gallon, but we can now approach the problem with weight savings, aerodynamics, tire technology and additional technologies as yet undreamed of. Experience has shown that meeting environmental goals comes with a price, but now these goals should have a payback. Part will come in fuel savings, and the rest from increased payloads.
When any hydrocarbon fuel-gasoline, diesel, or natural gas burns completely, the byproducts are water vapor and CO2. Water comes from hydrogen in the fuel combining with oxygen in the air. CO2 is the combining of carbon, also from the fuel, with oxygen.
The amount of CO2 is directly proportional to the type and amount of fuel burned. That proportion is fixed, but the more efficient we can make the total vehicle, the less fuel will be needed. And if 19 trucks can do the work that 20 used to, fuel requirements are cut, thus lowering costs.
Payload can be increased by lightening the vehicle. Let's assume that a 36-foot bridge mixer with a 66,000 gross vehicle weight rating can handle about 9.5 yards at capacity. If new materials such as high-strength alloy frames, foamed metal axle housings, and composite cross members can lighten the truck by 1500 to 2000 pounds, you can add an extra half-yard per load. That's a significant effect on productivity.

This is the second one like this that I have purchased! I bought one originally, and then I went on a road trip with my mom! She loved it so much that this is all that she wanted for her birthday! She loved how you can manipulate it to hold your phone at any angle; Her vent was not covered up AND she can plug her phone right into it! It is very sturdy and on speaker phone you can clearly hear the person and they can clearly hear you!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great Product For My Smartphone
By dee dee
from Houston,Texas
This is a great product. I previously used my charger and when I would be driving and turn the corner my phone would slide on the floor but with this product it charges it and keeps it located within arms reach. I love using it.
Very handy devise
By big dog
from Upstate NY
The only thing I wuld change is to make the vertical arm about 2" longer for ease of viewing the phone screen.It is a neat and compact way to handle charging, especially for long commutes.

Solved all my phone issues in my truck
By finndian
from Los Angeles, CA
I needed my phone brought closer to me while driving then the air vent phone mount models allowed. My power outlet also is a little behind the steering wheel and this adjustable neck is just the thing to get it out where I can see it!The one flaw that this unit had is that the button could not be pushed on the bottom of the phone without almost pushing the it out of the holder. I solved that by sliding the phone up in the holder. The phone now is held on the bottom of the phone by the holder, not the center. Now the button is supported from behind when it is pushed and works perfectly! There is absolutely not pivoting of the mount that slides into the outlet... it is very, very tight. I just bought another for my other car!

Good Idea But Flawed!!
By PreRunner
from Chandler AZ
When I saw the reviews on this product I was excited because I use, my recently purchased, Iphone 6+ for everything from streaming music to GPS and more while traveling.. Well as soon as I received the package I went straight to my vehicle to give it a try. Its pretty straightforward to install and use. I plugged it in to my cigarette lighter and found that the weight of the device with my cell phone in it was putting too much stress on the lighter itself thus bending it forward. Well I assumed that maybe it was just my vehicle (2014 Tacoma) and not all vehicles would experience this. So I tried to compensate from the tilt forward by bending the adjustable arm back. I found the arm to have a limited range of movement and not very stable. So while driving down the road I found the arm was slowly falling over and not staying in place. So with that said, this thing is useless... I kept it thinking that I could fabricate some kind of fix for it but found a better divice elsewhere.. I should have retuned it right away but I didn't.. It was a waist...

I want to use my hover states, on the main navigation bar, to stick on their respective pages to inform users which page they are on.
What's the easiest way to go about this using html/css?
Tere are PHP ways, JS ways, and CSS ways. The CSS way is to have a special class on the body tag of each page. So, for example, class="contact" on the Contact page. Then you could give the Contact link in your menu a class of "contact" too.
Then your CSS would look something like this:
nav a:hover, .contact nav a.contact {color: black; background: orange;}
Hmm tried it and it's not working...
Maybe because I'm using a sprite as my hovers? Not sure
When I do my navigation I'm a little unsure of what needs to be applied to an <li> vs an <a>.
I see you've added the bodyHome class to the home page so the rules you need would mimic the hover rules.
.homeBody .mainNav li.home a {
background-image: url(http://badesdesign.com/dev_msf/images/hovers.png);
color: #252469;
height: 45px;
left: 0;
padding-top: 3px;
position: absolute;
top: -1px;
You'll need to add classes to the body tag for the other menu items on the respective pages and merge them with the rules above.
.homeBody .mainNav li.home a,
.loanBody .mainNav li.loan-production a,
Got it! Thanks!
So I applied it to the Loan page and the sticky hover it not right...
Doing the same thing for recent financings and contact links.
You will have to set up exceptions for the items with longer widths.
.financeBody .mainNav li.recent-financings a { width: 173px}
.loanBody .mainNav li.loan-production a { width:161px;}
Absolutely - got it.

Les Miles is staying at LSU with a new deal and a raise, LSU officials announced Wednesday afternoon.
The news comes a day after reports surfaced that the University of Arkansas made a $27.5 million, five-year contract offer to Miles to coach the Razorbacks
Details of the contract changes are still in the negotiation process and will be announced at a later date, and are subject to approval of the LSU Board of Supervisors, according to a news release from LSU.
"Les Miles is one of the premier coaches in the country and has LSU in contention for championships year in and year out," Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Joe Alleva said. "Only two coaches in the 119-year history of LSU football have coached as many years at this school and only one has won more games. Les Miles has made a commitment to LSU and LSU is solidifying its commitment to Les Miles."
The 2011 National Coach of the Year, Miles has an eight-year record of 85-20 at LSU going into its 2012 bowl game. He has won 81 percent of his games since coming to Baton Rouge in 2005, the fifth best winning percentage in the history of the SEC, while taking the Tigers to the best eight-year record in school history. He has led LSU to four top five finishes, two Southeastern Conference titles and the BCS National Championship in 2007. Two years in a row LSU has posted the second best Graduation Success Rate in the SEC, trailing only Vanderbilt.
"The coaching business is a competitive one and it is important to compensate our coach for his accomplishments and his worth," Alleva said. "Les has not received a pay increase since his salary was automatically elevated following our national championship in 2007 and he has continued to keep LSU on the national stage.
"Our intent was to address his contract following this year's bowl game, but speculation about other job opportunities accelerated our process a little," Alleva said. "I think we have accomplished the important step of securing Les Miles as our head coach for the long-term good of the program."
More details to come.

Monday Morning Quarterback Week 15
The Good
The Bad
Cincinnati BengalsPhiladelphia Eagles
The quarterback play in this game was not impressive. Even though the Bengals won by three touchdowns, Andy Dalton threw for just 127 yards. On the positive side, he did throw 1 TD pass and he also ran for a score.
Nick Foles had to perform against a hungry defense that is playing for its postseason life, but he was not up to the task. He completed less than 50 percent of his passes, threw an interception and also lost a fumble.
Atlanta FalconsNew York Giants
In a season of outstanding performances, Matt Ryan was at his best against the Giants. He completed 23-of-28 passes for 270 yards with 3 TDs and he did not throw an interception.
The Falcons played nasty defense and that kept Eli Manning from finding his rhythm. He never felt comfortable and he threw for 161 yards with two troubling interceptions.
Denver BroncosBaltimore Ravens
Peyton Manning continues to play with confidence. Going into a hostile environment could have been an issue for anyone else, but Manning calmly took apart the Ravens' defense by avoiding mistakes. He threw for 204 yards and a touchdown.
Joe Flacco did not get it done. His statistics were not bad, but he didn't make enough big plays and was inaccurate when he needed to put the ball on the money. He completed only 20-of-40 passes and that's not good enough against a good team.
Green Bay PackersChicago Bears
Another game against the Bears and another win for Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. Rodgers methodically threw for 291 yards with 3 touchdown passes to James Jones and he did not throw an interception.
Jay Cutler needed to have his best game in this key divisional game. However, the Bears did little after a solid opening drive. Cutler threw for just 135 yards and his second-quarter interception gave the Packers control of the game.
Washington RedskinsCleveland Browns
The Redskins were forced to go with backup quarterback Kirk Cousins in this important game and the backup quarterback threw for 329 yards and 2 touchdowns. He was very confident and gave fellow rookie RGIII a much-needed week off to rest his sore knee.
Brandon Weeden had an opportunity to get the Browns a key win, but he was unable to take advantage. Weeden threw for 244 yards, but his 2 interceptions hurt the Browns badly.
Houston TexansIndianapolis Colts
The Texans had a great bounce-back game after their poor showing against the Patriots in Week 14. Matt Schaub led the team calmly and efficiently, throwing for 261 yards and a touchdown. Colts quarterback Andrew Luck did not throw any interceptions.
The Colts have come up big in end-of-game situations, but they couldn't finish the job despite staying close to the 12-2 Texans. Luck played with his usual swagger, but the Colts were not able to follow his lead.
Miami DolphinsJacksonville Jaguars
After struggling to put a good offensive game together in the first half, it all came together for Ryan Tannehill in the second half. He was quite sharp, completing 22-of-28 passes for 220 yards with 2 touchdowns and no interceptions.
Chad Henne has had some success since being inserted into the lineup by the Jaguars, but he couldn't finish any of his drives or lead the team into the end zone. Henne completed 18-of-34 passes for 221 yards.
New Orleans SaintsTampa Bay Buccaneers
It has been a difficult season for the Saints, but it all came together in this end-of-season home game against the Bucs. Drew Brees was back in form, completing 26-of-39 passes for 307 yards with 4 TDs and no interceptions.
Josh Freeman has been solid for the Bucs for most of the season, but there wasn't much left in the tank against the Saints. He threw for 279 yards, but he had 4 interceptions.
Minnesota VikingsSt. Louis Rams
Christian Ponder did not do much, but he did not make any big mistakes for the Vikings. He threw for 131 yards and did not throw an interception. Sam Bradford threw for 377 yards and 3 touchdowns after the Rams were forced into a comeback mode.
Ponder did not make any mistakes, but it's clear that he is not a quarterback who can make plays down the field and win games with his arm.
Arizona CardinalsDetroit Lions
The Cardinals found a way to end their nine-game losing streak, but quarterback Ryan Lindley only threw for 104 yards in the process. He did not throw a TD pass, but he only threw 1 interception.
Matthew Stafford should have been able to have a big game against the Cardinals, but it was just a poor all-around effort by the Lions. Stafford could not throw a touchdown pass and he threw 3 interceptions.
Seattle SeahawksBuffalo Bills
The Seahawks topped the 50-point mark for the second game in a row. Rookie quarterback Russell Wilson threw for 205 yards and 1 touchdown and he also ran for 92 yards and 3 touchdowns.
Ryan Fitzpatrick always leaves everything he has on the field, but he is not a strong enough quarterback to bring his team back from a sizable deficit. Fitzpatrick threw for 217 yards and a touchdown, but he threw 2 interceptions.
Carolina PanthersSan Diego Chargers
The Panthers have not done much that has gone right this season, but they did not let a West Coast trip bother them as they took apart the disappointing Chargers. Cam Newton showed off his passing skills, throwing for 233 yards and 2 touchdowns. He did not throw an interception.
Philip Rivers struggled to make plays as his team appeared to be completely out of it from start to finish. He threw for only 121 yards.
Dallas CowboysPittsburgh Steelers
Tony Romo did everything he could to keep his team in the game. He completed 30-of-42 passes for 341 yards with 2 touchdowns and he did not throw an interception. He stepped up and played another tough game against the best defense in the league.
Ben Roethlisberger had a solid game as he threw for 339 yards and 2 touchdowns, but he threw an interception in overtime that set the Cowboys up for the win.
Oakland RaidersKansas City Chiefs
This was not a good NFL game by any stretch, but quarterback Carson Palmer did just enough to get the Raiders a rare win. He threw for 182 yards and he did not throw an interception.
Brady Quinn is playing with as much effort as he can muster, but it's not enough to help his team compete. He threw for 136 yards and an interception as the Chiefs got blanked.
San Francisco 49ersNew England Patriots
Possibly the best game of the season to this point. Colin Kaepernick and Tom Brady were spectacular in poor weather conditions. Kaepernick threw for 216 yards and 4 touchdowns and he only threw 1 interception. Tom Brady and the Patriots fell behind early, but they rallied from a 28-point deficit to tie the game in the fourth quarter. Brady threw for more than 300 yards in the second half and 443 yards in the game.
After the Patriots tied the game with 6:43 to go in the fourth quarter, the 49ers scored two plays later. Brady was unable to rally the Pats from another deficit.

Jesus said to her, "Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life." (John 4:13-14, ESV)
Introduction to the Book of Enoch
Click here to read the The Book of Enoch now.
We first learn of Enoch in Genesis 5 but it leaves us with questions. Hebrews 11 has the answers and Jude quotes Enoch! How did Jude come to know the words of Enoch? They are not in the Bible. The answer of course, is The Book of Enoch. A book which is actually quoted not only by Jude, but also James the natural brother of Jesus.
The quote in (Jude 14-15) & (1 Enoch 1:9) is as follows: "In the seventh (generation) from Adam Enoch also prophesied these things, saying: 'Behold, the Lord came with his holy myriads, to execute judgment on all, and to convict all the ungodly of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners spoke against him'."
What is the Book of Enoch and where did it come from?
Enoch was the grandfather of Noah. The Book of Enoch chapter 68:1 "And after that my grandfather Enoch gave me all the secrets in the book and in the parables which had been given to him, and he put them together for me in the words of the book of the parables." This makes it possible for the Book to have survived the flood as its not too hard to accept that Noah would have taken his Great Grandfathers writings with him onto the ark.
The Book of Enoch was extant centuries before the birth of Christ and yet is considered by many to be more Christian in its theology than Jewish. It was considered scripture by many early Christians. The earliest literature of the so-called "Church Fathers" is filled with references to this mysterious book. The early second century "Epistle of Barnabus" makes much use of the Book of Enoch. Second and Third Century "Church Fathers" like Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Origin and Clement of Alexandria all make use of the Book of Enoch. Tertullian (160-230 C.E) even called the Book of Enoch "Holy Scripture". The Ethiopic Church even added the Book of Enoch to its official canon. It was widely known and read the first three centuries after Christ. This and many other books became discredited after the Council of Laodicea. And being under ban of the authorities, afterwards it gradually passed out of circulation.
At about the time of the Protestant Reformation, there came to be a renewed interest in the Book of Enoch which had long since been lost to the modern world. By the late 1400's rumors began to spread that somewhere a copy of the long lost Book of Enoch might still exist. During this time many books arose claiming to be the long lost book and were later found to be forgeries.
The return of the long lost Book of Enoch to the modern western world is credited to the famous explorer James Bruce, who in 1773 returned from six years in Abyssinia with three Ethiopic copies of the lost book. In 1821 Richard Laurence published the first English translation. The famous R.H. Charles edition was published in 1912. In the following years several portions of the Greek text surfaced. Then with the discovery of cave 4 of the Dead Sea Scrolls, seven fragmentary copies of the Aramaic text were discovered.
The Book of Enoch is divided into five basic parts, but it is the The Book of Parables (37-71) which gives scholars the most trouble for it is primarily concerned with a figure called "the messiah"; "the righteous one"; "the chosen one" and "the son of man."
Chapter 46:1-2 [1] There I beheld the Ancient of days whose head was like white wool, and with him another, whose countenance resembled that of a man. His countenance was full of grace, like that of one of the holy angels. Then I inquired of one of the angels, who went with me, and who showed me every secret thing, concerning this Son of man; who he was; whence he was; and why he accompanied the Ancient of days. [2] He answered and said to me, This is the Son of man, to whom righteousness belongs; with whom righteousness has dwealt; and who will reveal all the treasures of that which is concealed: for the Lord of spirits has chosen him; and his portion has surpassed all before the Lord of spirits in everlasting uprightness."
The opening verses of the Book of Enoch tell us that the revelations in this book were not meant for Enoch's generation, rather a remote generation, and of course the book would make more sense to the generations after Christ. We know that the early Church made use of the Book of Enoch, but it was then all but lost, until recent times. Perhaps this book was meant for our generation, as it is widely available today after being concealed for over a millennia.
(Enoch 1:1-3) The words of the blessing of Enoch, wherewith he blessed the elect and righteous, who will be living in the day of tribulation, when all the wicked and godless are to be removed. And he took up his parable and said -Enoch a righteous man, whose eyes were opened by God, saw the vision of the Holy One in the heavens, which the angels showed me, and from them I heard everything, and from them I understood as I saw, but not for this generation, but for a remote one which is for to come.

My Ride: 325Xi
New guy from boston
Hello all, I am new to the forums despite regularly reading them for a while now. I finally decided to join today, because I think the site is a great resource for us bimmer enthusiasts and I want to get the most out of it. I bought my first BMW, an Oxford Green Metallic 2004 325Xi, about eight months ago. It had 97,000 miles on it at the time and I've put on 10,000 more since. It has been a roller coaster of a relationship that I've had with my car, but I love it to death. I've done a few mods to my car, but nothing major. I installed Umnitza Orion Predator V2 Angel Eyes (which I must say are a fantastic product), as well as the Dice Mediabridge ipod integration kit. I plan to continue to do some more upgrades when I get the money to do so. I understand that the 325Xi is the slowest of all e46's, and I accept it for what it is. Despite it's lack of speed it is a joy to drive. I'm not going to try to and tune it or get more performance out of it, because it would be extremely expensive for minimal results. Instead I'd like to make it look as clean and impressive as can be. I'm going to post pictures of it as soon as it gets out of the shop. Unfortunately, just the day after having paid for a slew of mechanical repairs, I was sideswiped. The drivers side of my vehicle was completely smashed in from the headlight to the rear drivers side door (luckily no one was injured). The other driver was found to be 100% at fault and her insurance is now paying for my $7000 repair. I'm supposed to get my car back one week from today, and can barely wait. Until then, I think the forums here will be keeping me busy. I look forward to benefiting from all your knowledge, and sharing in the gusto for the Ultimate Driving Machine.

Taylor Swift obtains restraining order against stalker
Listen to Taylor Swift on iHeartRadio
(TMZ) - Taylor Swift just got a restraining order against a guy who believes he's married to the singer and who vowed to murder anyone who stands between them -- including Secretary of State John Kerry, reports TMZ.
Swift filed legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- in which she claims Timothy Sweet has dogged her since January, 2011.
Sweet has sent a torrent of emails, letters, and social media posts professing his love for her.
Among the messages:
-- "If anyone in Taylor Swift's family gets killed, it is not my fault."
-- "My wife, Taylor Swift (Sweet) and I live in Beverly Hills. I am in love with her. In conclusion, we treat each other with dignity and respect. I will carry a gun to protect her the rest of my life."
-- "Dearest Taylor, I'll kill any man who gets in the way of our marriage. Message to John Kerry, Secretary of State. Message from YOUR Presidential Candidate."
Swift says she's worried for her safety and the safety of her family.
A judge just ordered Sweet to stay 100 yards away from Swift and 3 members of her family.

My guess it was a weakfish. I think if it was a bluefish or a shark I'd have trouble typing this sentence right now, anyway there were tons of fish around yesterday from sandeels to adult bunker so the food chain is around to dolphins.

GREENEVILLE, Tenn.- Brevard College's Dominique Pickett poured in a career-high 34 points to lead the Tornados to their first win of the season, a 95-73 victory over the Tusculum College Pioneers in South Atlantic Conference action from Pioneer Arena on Tuesday night.
Pickett eclipsed his previous career high of 31 by shooting 12-of-20 from the floor, including 7-of-12 from three-point range. The redshirt senior also pulled down a game-high nine rebounds.
Miles Leathers also notched his career high in the scoring column, dropping 21 points on an efficient 7-for-11 performance from the field. Leathers added five points from the free throw line.
In addition to Pickett and Leathers, Darius Moose added 15 points and Manzey Miller chipped in 14. Moose also distributed a career-high 10 assists in the win.
"It's hard to pick one guy, a lot of guys played really well," said head coach Lee Burgess. "I felt like we stuck together as a team through the whole thing."
With the game tied 34-34 after the final media timeout of the first half, the Tornados closed the first half on a 10-2 run to bring a 44-36 lead into the break. A Leathers putback with 2:29 left in the half gave BC the lead for good.
Leathers had 18 points before the break, including seven over the final 3:30 of the opening half.
The Tornados kept Tusculum at bay by shooting a scorching 73.9 percent (17-of-23) field in the second half, which included a ridiculous 11-for-15 from beyond the arc.
Brevard's 95 points serves as a season-high in scoring for the Tornados, and the 22-point margin of victory is the largest ever in the all-time series with Tusuculum.
"I think we're capable of much better than what we've shown (this season)", added Burgess. "Hopefully something like this gives them some confidence to validate that, and we can keep moving forward and keep getting better".
The Tornados resume play Saturday afternoon with a nonconference bout against Furman University in the Timmons Center at 12 p.m. The Paladins topped BC 76-53 in an exhibition game in Greenville last November.
