Americans love their tax refunds. I know I do.
So why is conservative talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh advising listeners to avoid them? In a word, Obamacare.
"If you structure your taxes so that you do not get a refund, you do not have to buy insurance and you do not have to pay a fine, cause they can't collect it from you if you don't have a refund due," Limbaugh said in October, according to a transcript on his website.
He's referring to the Affordable Care Act's tax penalty, which will be imposed on people who don't have health insurance this year or beyond.
I explained some of the particulars of the penalty in my last column, and above all, I tried to dispel the misconception that the 2014 fine is $95 per uninsured person. That's not true for most people, who will likely owe hundreds, if not thousands, more.
Now, I'm tackling questions about how you'll pay the fine — and whether the government will come after you if you don't.
I don't have health insurance. How will I be taxed?
In the spirit of Obamacare, let me start with a caveat: Much of the fine print governing the tax penalty has not been finalized. The Internal Revenue Service says it will issue more guidelines later this year.
But what is clear is that settling the penalty will become part of your annual income taxes, starting next year. That means you'll actually declare this year's insurance status and pay this year's tax next year when you file your 2014 taxes.
How will the IRS know if I'm telling the truth about being insured?
The federal government isn't going to rely on your word alone. Obamacare requires insurance providers to submit proof of coverage both to consumers and to the IRS.
Think of it like a 1099 form for health insurance. "In order to enforce (the tax penalty), the IRS will need a lot of information they don't currently collect," says Roberton Williams, a senior fellow with the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center.
And don't assume "insurance providers" refers only to insurance companies. As Williams notes, some government programs (such as Medi-Cal, the state's health insurance for low-income Californians) and some employers provide or offer health coverage.
They, too, must report — and that reporting will include how many months someone was covered during the year.
That's a lot of new and different information pouring into the IRS. Does this sound like it could devolve into a royal mess? It does to me. Consider Medi-Cal, which covers more than 9 million people now, with more joining every day.
The Department of Health Care Services, which administers Medi-Cal, is already sagging under the weight of its bureaucratic load. How will it do this, too?
They are working out the details, says spokesman Tony Cava, noting they've now been given some extra time. The IRS has announced it will delay the reporting requirement for government agencies — and other insurance providers — until the 2015 tax year, meaning you probably won't receive "health care 1099s" in the mail until 2016.
How will the IRS collect the tax?
Here's the rub: The IRS has limited enforcement powers in this case.
"The law prohibits the IRS from using liens or levies to collect" the tax, the agency says. However, "the IRS may offset that liability against any tax refund that may be due to you."
There you have it. The IRS can grab the tax out of your refund, if you have one coming, but not much else.
"They cannot garnish wages, go after assets or even come knocking at your door to say, 'Pay up,' " Williams says. Still, most Americans who file taxes receive refunds, and he doesn't anticipate many will attempt to skirt the tax by fiddling with their tax withholding and other details.
All of this brings us back to Limbaugh urging his listeners to avoid refunds.
To my knowledge, Limbaugh is not a certified public accountant, so please, before you take anyone's advice, check with a tax professional.

The Well-Stocked Kitchen: Our Essential Serving Dishes
We received a question from a reader asking about the most useful and essential serving pieces. Carrie said that she just inherited a set of fine china, but the set (as well as her everyday Fiestaware) has no serving pieces. If you're in the market for serving pieces, like Carrie, what should you get? Here are our picks for the most useful, basic, and essential serving dishes, and we'd love to hear your take on this as well.
I have to preface this list with a disclaimer: I adore servingware. I have far more cake plates than I will ever need (bad habit, that) and I always look longingly at the platters, bowls and footed stands on sale at every home store I walk into. So perhaps my few essentials here are still more than you would need, but I did pick them with an eye to adaptability, versatility, and practicality. And there's nary a cake stand among them!
This list doesn't cover serving utensils; we'll cover that some other time. These are just the dishes. Also, I decided not to give you fancy and practical versions of the same things. I feel that, depending on your entertaining style, if you choose classic-enough serving dishes they're equally as good for an outdoor barbecue as for Thanksgiving dinner. And of course adjust for your own style; these are mostly basic, classic whiteware; you may want serving pieces with more flair and color!
• 1. Several small to midsize serving bowls - These can actually be the cereal bowls in your china set, although I feel that midsize pasta bowls are the perfect thing for serving a lot of food at the table. They're not huge, and they hold plenty of rice or pasta for a dinner party of three or four. They are also good for bread; fold in a nice towel over half a loaf of sliced bread or a dozen biscuits. Source: Large Bistro Bowls, 8" diameter. $5.95 each at Crate & Barrel.
• 2. Large serving bowl - Along with your smaller pasta-sized bowls, I find that it's helpful to have a large bowl for when your main dish is something that needs to be served in a bowl, like a mixed pasta or a big salad. Source: Bistro Serving Bowl, 11.75" diameter. $14.95 at Crate & Barrel. The companion serving bowl to the Bistro Bowls above.
• 3. Oversized and dramatic serving bowl - One more bowl! I often use three bowls for dinner: A smaller soup or pasta bowl with bread, then a large serving bowl with salad, then a big centerpiece bowl with a mixed pasta or grain salad. Source: MUD Nest Bowl, $100 at Horne. This is an expensive piece, I realize, but I included it because I feel that this big, centerpiece serving bowl is the place to perhaps spend a little more. I love organic, asymmetrically shaped bowls like this one. But look at the sale shelf at Anthropologie, as well as at discount stores like TJ Maxx. Those are great places to find both basic and unique servingware.
• 4. Square platter - A square platter (or two) is good for serving dessert, like cake or cookies, as well as some main dishes. I find that a square platter is a little more versatile than a round one. Source: Chelsea Serverware, $42 at Williams-Sonoma.
• 5. Oval platter - A good platter for serving a whole chicken, a mess of asparagus, or any other big meat dish or roasted vegetables. Source: Italian Whiteware Oval Serving Platter, $32 for the largest size at Sur La Table. This is a little deeper than the type of platter I have, but that might add to its versatility.
Just to repeat: All of these items are for example; you can probably find much better deals and prices at Target, IKEA, and TJ Maxx and other discount stores. But these were pretty good representations of the pieces I use every day for serving food.
This list also doesn't include the everyday items that I often use for serving at the table; I reuse a lot of cookware and baking dishes when entertaining. For instance:
• A nice big cutting board doubles as a cheese board and appetizer platter.
• Ramekins do double duty as prep cups and individual dessert cups.
• The red or black Dutch oven is always handsome enough to bring to the table.
• As mentioned above, soup bowls and other small bowls are always handy for serving fruit, rice, and vegetables.
• Plain white gratin dishes can be pressed into service too.
OK, those are my own basics, and all of those are quite close to things I actually own. What about you? Any total essentials for entertaining, dining, and having dinner with friends?

Her Turn
"I adore my husband, John, but my daughter is making us miserable," said a weary Lisa, 39, who's been married for six years and has two children, Ali, 16, and Cara, 12, from her first marriage. "Ali was 5 when her dad and I split up, and the divorce was rough on her. Now, 11 years later, Ali's still acting out, being disrespectful and insensitive to other people's feelings.
"Ken, my ex, is making matters worse. Suddenly this irresponsible father wants Ali to live with him. He tells her he won't impose a curfew the way John and I do — a perfectly reasonable 11:30 p.m. on weekends. He's even promised her a car! This kind of pie-in-the-sky nonsense is so typical of him.
"Ken and I got together at 17, married at 21 and divorced at 28. At first I was too young, or too infatuated, to notice how immature he was. Even after I wised up I struggled for years to make our marriage work. I wanted to get counseling, but he refused. Yet he was shocked when I left. That says it all.
"He has never remarried, and I think he's still mad at me for leaving because he never misses a chance to make my life difficult. To this day he'll promise to take the kids for the weekend, then never show. I can't count the times I've driven them over to his house only to find him gone. Or he'll drop the girls off hours behind schedule, throwing a wrench into our plans. This infuriates John, who then gets pulled into absurd arguments with Ken.
"The irony is that I tried so hard to do everything right. I met John four years after my divorce. He was charming, generous, and successful — he owns a printing business here in New York City — and I knew immediately I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. But when it came to introducing him into the kids' lives, I took it slowly, as the experts advise. Cara is crazy about John, but he and Ali butted heads from the get-go."
"And it's not all her fault. John is a 'because-I-said-so' parent, whereas I try to explain my position and listen to the kids' side. John thinks I'm a pushover, that I'm too nice with them. Well, I've been told I'm too nice my entire life. I don't know any other way to be. I was an only child; my mother was a nurse and my father, who was an alcoholic, owned a dry-cleaning business. I spent most of my childhood trying to make my mother happy, without much success. She finally divorced my dad when I was in college.
"Now I feel like I'm headed for another divorce. Things really fell apart last Friday. I was still at the office — I'm a bookkeeper at a software firm — when John called, furious. Ali had been on the phone for three hours, ignoring the call-waiting signal so the auto mechanic he needed to speak to couldn't get through. Excuse me? He interrupts me at work to complain about the commonest teen behavior imaginable?
"When I got home John started yelling at me, which set me off. It was surreal — the two of us in this face-off, getting madder by the minute. And we never used to even raise our voices to each other.
"Then, as Ali was leaving to meet a friend, I noticed she was wearing her sister's necklace. Cara was at soccer practice and couldn't have given Ali permission to wear it, so I asked her to take it off. She refused and shoved me out of the way, knocking my head against the banister. John grabbed Ali's arm and she erupted like a volcano, racing to the phone and calling the police. Two police cars roared up to the house and an officer took her statement. Fortunately, she had calmed down somewhat and the police concluded that it was a false alarm. But after they left, John looked me in the eye, said, 'When she makes it to Broadway, give me a call,' and stomped out. I spent two hours in tears before he came back. He apologized, but I just feel so hopeless, like I'm losing my daughter and my marriage."
His Turn
"My stepdaughter has hijacked our marriage," said John, 52. "Ali was 9 when her mom and I met, and I really wanted to love her. But this kid has been a handful from day one. Cara, the little one, is flexible and lighthearted, but Ali is tightly wound and stubborn. She blames me for her parents' divorce, even though Lisa and I met years afterward. In her mixed-up mind, her parents would have gotten back together if I'd never come along.
"It kills me to see how torn up Lisa is about Ali. The spunky, upbeat woman I fell in love with is anxious and tearful, always waiting for the next storm to blow in. And it always does. We've tried grounding Ali, taking away privileges, bending over backward to please her. Nothing works. Nothing. She's always nasty. Believe me, this behavior wouldn't have been tolerated when I was a kid. My parents were old-fashioned, and when my dad gave an order, my brother and I followed it or faced the consequences.
"I'm not proud of the way I handle Ken, either, but the guy gets under my skin. Whenever Lisa and I have something special to do, he manages to mess it up. One Sunday a few years ago we were getting ready to go to my parents' 50th wedding anniversary party and had no idea where the girls were. When Ken finally showed up with them three hours late — he'd 'lost track of time,' he said, and didn't have his cell phone with him — I lit into him and the two of us ended up in an ugly shouting match. That still happens more often than I care to admit, even though Lisa always tells me it's pointless to engage him.
"Lisa actually makes things easier for him. He can barely be bothered to have the girls at his place, so she'll be the one who drives them there. My wife is loving, thoughtful, and kind to a fault. She hates it when people say she's too nice, but it's true. She lets people walk all over her.
"That farce with the police was the last straw. I was already really angry at Ali for monopolizing the phone and then slamming her bedroom door in my face when I yelled at her about it. Lisa wasn't there when that happened, and it would have upset her because she has told the girls time and again that door slamming isn't permitted. Not that they listen to her anyway. Then Ali pushed her mom against the stairs, and that's when I really lost it. Okay, I grabbed her arm, but I certainly wasn't hurting her or whatever crazy story she told the cops. By that time I was so furious I had to get out. I drove around for a while and stopped for coffee before going home. I tried to tell Lisa how sorry I was, but I'm not sure she believed me. I know I shouldn't take my anger at Ali out on her, but I just can't help it sometimes.
"I wish I could love Ali. God knows I've tried. But I'm beginning to think that letting her move in with her father would give us our lives back."
The Counselor's Turn
"Lisa and John were clearly in love," said the counselor, "but Ali's behavior eroded the connection that brought them together. They needed to move their marriage back to center stage.
"For that to happen, however, Lisa had to be convinced that being happy wasn't selfish. In truth, she was too nice. As a child she felt responsible for her mother's happiness; in her first marriage she assumed a similar role with her husband. As a mom her guilt over her divorce led her to be too lenient. But her permissiveness gave Ali too much power. 'Her actions are dictating your relationship,' I told them. 'That sends the message that she's in charge.'
"Living with a teenager is trying enough for biological parents; a stepparent feels even more powerless. 'Ali baits you in ways she'd never dare with her mom or dad,' I told John. 'You're the lightning rod for a host of issues, many of them age-appropriate. As crazy as this may sound, you can't take her attitude personally. Teens are still coming to terms with who they are and where they fit in the family.'
"Stepparents assume that because they love their partner they'll automatically love the person's children. 'You may never love Ali,' I explained to John. 'While that's sad, it's also okay. But you do need to find a way to get along.'
"Our sessions also helped clarify John's anger at Ken, which was so white-hot that at one point I asked, 'Could you be transferring your rage at Ken onto Ali?' John nodded as tears welled up in his eyes. This breakthrough helped him temper his attitude toward his stepdaughter.
"Yet life at home was not improving, despite our sessions. Finally Lisa made the wrenching decision to let Ali move in with her father. At the end of three months, Ali asked to move back. 'Living with Ken wasn't so great after all,' said Lisa. 'True, he didn't care about curfews — but he didn't really care about her, either. And the car he promised never materialized.'"
"A still-guarded Ali returned home and agreed to join Lisa and John for several sessions. This gave her a neutral setting in which to express her confusion and vulnerability. John's feelings softened, and Lisa acknowledged that she'd been lax with discipline and outlined new house rules. She repeatedly told Ali she loved her but that her behavior was unacceptable. All three signed a contract stating that Ali would lose privileges if she broke the rules.
"To strengthen their own romantic connection, John and Lisa began going out by themselves once a week, leaving Ali in charge at home. 'We want to show her that we trust her and that if she's trying, we'll try, too,' John said. He now spends time alone with Ali, inviting her to hit golf balls or to grab a bite together. He and Lisa also schedule regular family outings for the kind of fun that had fallen by the wayside in the turmoil of recent months.
"Over the next year the situation gradually improved. At a recent session, both John and Lisa expressed cautious optimism. 'Things are far from perfect,' Lisa said, reaching for her husband's hand. 'But last week Ali told me she loves John and knows that he truly loves all of us. That was huge.'"

A leading Catholic lawyer has warned that Catholic charities across Britain are at risk from equality laws after an adoption agency was told it could lose its charitable status.
The Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator ruled that St Margaret's Children and Family Care Society in Glasgow is directly discriminating against gay people by refusing to place children in the care of same-sex couples.
The regulator said that although the charity provides a valuable service, it believed its current practice was unlawful, and gave it three months to change.
The ruling came about after a complaint by the National Secular Society.
Martin Tyson, the Scottish Charity Regulator's head of registration, said: 'We acknowledge the valuable service provided by this charity, but the fact is that all charities must comply with the law, including the Equality Act 2010."
But Neil Addison of the Thomas More Legal Centre said the regulator threatening to remove the agency from the charities' register was "surprising".
He said: "There is an exemption in the Equality Act for charities. If what they're doing is breaking the Equality Act there is a procedure for challenging it, for saying what they're doing is unlawful.
"It's a gross overreaction. It's like closing down an entire hospital because one small section is in breach of health and safety.
"If they're right, then the exemption in the Equality Act is worthless, because if you break the Act then you are not a charity. It's a completely circular argument."
Mr Addison also said that the ruling had implications for other areas of equality law, including the Government's "quadruple lock" protecting religious groups in the event of gay marriage.
"It's going to stop all sorts of Catholic charities which are arguably in breach of the Equality Act. If you apply this logic, what's to stop the regulator refusing to register a church or diocese as a charity?
"It is very worrying. I think the regulator is going way beyond its powers and remits."
Education Secretary Mike Russell said he was "disappointed" by the decision. He said: "We do not believe that this outcome is in the best interests of the children St Margaret's helps, who are in need of a safe and loving family home."

MONTREAL (AP) Whether it's practice, qualifying or the races themselves, Mercedes teammates Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg have been dominating Formula One.
Winners of all six races so far this season, the two drivers posted the fastest laps on the first day of practice Friday at the Canadian Grand Prix. Hamilton turned in the top time of 1 minute, 16.118 seconds in the afternoon practice - a speed of 128.16 mph (206.253) - on the 2.71-mile (4.36-kilometer) Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, and Rosberg was just 0.175 seconds slower.
''Nico looked very quick today as well so I have my work cut out for sure,'' said Hamilton, who won four races in a row before finishing second to Rosberg at Monaco last month. ''The Ferraris looked quite close today and the rest of the field seemed closer in general but hopefully not too close.''
Rosberg leads the Formula One championship with 122 points, thanks to two victories and four second-place finishes. Hamilton, the 2008 champion, is in second place for the season with 118 points from four victories and a No. 2 finish; he lasted just two laps before a failed cylinder knocked him out of the season-opening Australian Grand Prix.
Hamilton won at the track for McLaren in 2007, 2010 and 2012.
Ferrari's Fernando Alonso is in third place with just 61 points. He had the fastest lap in the morning practice Friday with a time of 1:17.238.
''It's going to be a tough challenge'' to catch Mercedes, Ferrari engineering director Pat Fry said. ''But we just need to keep on. There's quite a gap to close, let's face it, but we just need to do our best and keep developing.''
Fry said Ferrari's garage was busy Friday after problems with Kimi Raikkonen's power unit limited him to just 15 laps in the morning. But he said both drivers got enough time on the track to provide data that the team can evaluate before practice resumes on Saturday morning.
''It's too early to say whether it's all working or not,'' Fry said. ''Some things are looking promising; some we need to look into in more detail. ... But we need to keep developing the car as quickly as we can.''
Although it was surprising to see the dominant Mercedes knocked from the top spot in practice, Rosberg said he was experimenting with the brakes in the morning before making a change for the afternoon.
''It was much better for the second session, so I'm quite happy now with that,'' he said. ''But I'm still a tenth off the quickest time so I'll work hard with our engineers tonight to find that extra pace.''
Four-time defending Formula One champion Sebastian Vettel, the race winner last year, posted the third-fastest lap of the afternoon, with Ferrari's Raikkonen and Alonso fourth and fifth. Williams teammates Felipe Massa and Valtteri Bottas were sixth and seventh.
Light rain fell in the late morning but did not disrupt practice. Teams ran more laps in the morning because of the threat of more rain, but the second session went on without interruption.
Another practice session on Saturday morning will be followed by qualifying in the afternoon.
''It's very hard to overtake here so pole position is important,'' Hamilton said.
Mercedes executive director Paddy Lowe said the focus on Friday was doing their homework on tire performance and fuel consumption.
By the afternoon, they seemed to have figured it out.
As usual.
''It's not easy,'' Lowe said. ''I know we have a fantastic record so far this year, but we've got some competitors out there who will grab everything we leave behind. We've got to make sure we don't.''

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Wearing his familiar knit cap and a blue San Jose State sweatshirt, Packers receiver James Jones looked like he was ready to escape the bitter cold and take the first flight back home to the West Coast.
He will take a month or so to decompress with family before starting to think about football again. But with free agency looming, there's no guarantee the veteran wideout will be back in Green Bay.
The 23-20 loss Sunday to the San Francisco 49ers in an NFC wild-card game started the painful but familiar process Monday for players of saying goodbyes, looking forward to rest and wondering which teammates would be back next fall.
"You know what, to be honest with you, I'm not even worried about it. I'm at peace. I'm just chilling," Jones said on a morning when players were having exit interviews and cleaning up their lockers. "Whatever may happen, happens. I would love to be back here."
The productive Jones is among the highest-profile Packers facing free agency, along with tight end Jermichael Finley; cornerback Sam Shields; center Evan Dietrich-Smith; and defensive linemen B.J. Raji, Johnny Jolly and Ryan Pickett.
Fullback John Kuhn, tight end Andrew Quarless and linebacker Mike Neal are other notable players facing free agency.
"Seventeen of us on the free agents list, so that makes it difficult," Neal said. "A lot of guys I came in with, a lot of guys I've been here with, so it's a little different."
Finley, who was sidelined for the year in October with a neck injury, may not be back, so the Packers could look to the draft at that position. Safety is a position that could be upgraded, and the defense overall could use another playmaker or two to go with Matthews at linebacker.
But the Packers (8-8-1) appear to be set for years with rookie running back Eddie Lacy, who added the much-needed threat to make opposing defenses pay for focusing on quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
The Packers came close to extending their season one more week before Phil Dawson hit a 33-yard field goal as time expired to win it. For a second straight year, Green Bay's season began and ended with losses to San Francisco.
Green Bay was worn down by injuries and maligned by defensive struggles at the same time that Rodgers went down for seven games with a left collarbone injury. But a 3-1 stretch to finish the regular season and the return of Rodgers brought new life.
A "never-give-up" identity emerged as the Packers rallied for all three wins, and players had a sense that maybe, just maybe, things were breaking their way after Chicago and Detroit each took turns slipping from the division lead.
"People can ridicule our team from different aspects, but you go through what we've been through ... and still come into the playoffs and lose by a field goal with a second on the clock — I don't care what nobody says, that's a hell of a football team, and I applaud everybody for that," Neal said.
Neal left Sunday's game with a right knee injury, but he says there's no concern about ligament damage. Shields hurt his left knee against the Niners, though he posted on Twitter that his injury was "nothing major."
Shields and fellow cornerback Tramon Williams elevated their play down the stretch. Neal thinks his transition from defensive end to rush linebacker went smoothly, and the position switch helped make up for when pass-rushing specialist Clay Matthews was sidelined with a broken right thumb.
Besides Lacy, left tackle David Bakhtiari and cornerback Micah Hyde also played well among the rookie class. Hyde got better as the year went along in the return game.
After struggling to find an adequate replacement for Rodgers, Matt Flynn returned to Green Bay and helped win two crucial games in December including the rousing 37-36 victory on Dec. 15 over Dallas. The Packers had rallied from a 23-point halftime deficit.
Clearly though, Rodgers' injury on Nov. 4 was a turning point. Green Bay managed to get 5-2 until then in spite of injuries to Finley, Matthews and receiver Randall Cobb, among others.
They went 2-5-1 before both Rodgers and Cobb both returned in Week 17, connecting for the stunning 48-yard touchdown pass on fourth-and-8 to help beat the Bears 33-28 in Week 17 to take the NFC North.
"These opportunities are pretty special and you've got to make the most of them," Rodgers said after Sunday's loss. "It's nine years for me now, blessed to play that long, and would love to play another nine if possible, but this is an opportunity we let slip through our fingers."

Green's late basket helps Celtics down slumping Cavs
Cleveland, OH – Jeff Green's layup at the buzzer prevented the Boston Celtics from enduring a sixth straight loss, with the basket accounting for the deciding points in a 93-92 comeback win over the Cleveland Cavaliers at Quicken Loans Arena.
Green finished with 21 points and seven rebounds, while Brandon Bass scored a season-high 22 points to help Boston rally from a 14-point deficit with eight minutes remaining and earn a much-needed victory. Paul Pierce nearly notched a triple-double in the triumph, accumulating 19 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists.
"It was a huge win," said Pierce. "We didn't play well from the second quarter on, but we found a way. It seemed like we were mentally fatigued and physically fatigued, but we put it all together at the end."
Wayne Ellington netted 16 points for Cleveland, which was outscored by a 21-6 margin over the final eight minutes and shot just 36.8 percent in the fourth quarter. C.J. Miles and Marreese Speights each had 13 points off the bench in the loss, the Cavaliers' sixth in a row and eighth in nine games.
The Celtics appeared on the verge of another defeat after a 13-3 run ignited by a Daniel Gibson 3-pointer and capped by back-to-back buckets from Speights staked the Cavs to an 86-72 lead with 8:08 left to play.
Cleveland made just two field goals the rest of the way, however, and Boston put forth a furious late charge to get back in it.
Down by eight with under three minutes to go, Boston ripped off seven consecutive points and pulled to within 90-89 when Green was fouled on a successful jumper and hit the resulting free throw with 1:43 remaining.
"I thought we stopped being aggressive," said Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott. "We were looking at the clock, playing not to lose the game instead of win the game. With 5:40 left in the game, we get one field goal for the rest of the game. You have to look to win. You can't hope the clock runs out and I thought that's what we kind of did."
The Celtics came up empty on their next two trips down the court, and Miles hit two free throws with 39 seconds showing for a three-point differential. Pierce then buried a short fadeaway and Cleveland's Shaun Livingston missed with the shot clock winding down, with Jordan Crawford pulling down the rebound for Boston.
After a timeout, Green received a pass from Avery Bradley near the foul line, drove right and laid the ball in an instant before the final horn sounded.
"(Jason Terry) set a good screen on my man, and Avery made a good pass," Green remarked. "I just tried to be aggressive and get to the rim."
The Cavaliers had controlled the action for the majority of the second half and created some distance with an 13-0 burst to go up 62-50 less than five minutes into the third quarter. An 11-2 sequence from Boston later on in the period trimmed the Celtics' deficit to 68-65, but Cleveland opened the fourth on fire to go back in front by double digits.
Boston had built a 12-point lead on the strength of 6-0 second-quarter run, highlighted by a Pierce triple and a Crawford bucket that made the score 35-23 with 7:40 left in the half. The Celtics then proceeded to miss their next six shots, and Cleveland capitalized with an 11-1 spurt over the ensuing four minutes to close within two.
The Cavaliers took a 45-44 edge on a Tyler Zeller jumper 34.9 seconds prior to intermission, but a Bass layup on the following possession sent Boston back in front at the break.
Cleveland shot just 31.8 percent in the first quarter and trailed by a 24-15 count before Miles finished out the period with a 3-pointer.
Game Notes
Bass' previous season high was 16 points, set four times previously and last accomplished at Dallas this past Friday ... Livingston and Gee each ended with 12 points for Cleveland, with Crawford scoring 12 for Boston on 5-of-8 shooting ... The Celtics scored 23 points off 19 Cleveland turnovers, 12 of which came after halftime ... Boston has now won in four of their last five stops at Quicken Loans Arena, with the lone loss over that stretch a 95-90 setback on Jan. 22.

Lots of Utah's young women carry—like Jessica, with her 9mm Sig Mosquito.
Jessica is a tiny 20-something platinum blonde and a bona fide fashion guru. Her skinny jeans look extra long with sky-high heels, which she wears Monday through Friday. Her favorite pair? "My studded Vince Camuto pumps." Her favorite accessory? "My Prada handbag." It's true Jessica's fashion sense is exquisite: She knows where to find the latest in faux fur, the best in chunky jewelry and the hippest guns. "I have a pink Sig Mosquito," she says. "But I carry the silvery-blue Sig P238."
Jessica's not the only Utah girl I know with a gun. Cynthia says she "fell in love with the Taurus PT99 9mm silver pistol handgun—there is something sexy about it. It was in Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet and was the first gun I thought was beautiful." Amanda wears Frye boots when she shoots her rifle, a Remington Bolt Action 22. In fact, a completely informal survey shows that most of the women I work with not only own guns, but have concealed carry permits, too.
The American West is generally gun tolerant, but in Utah, the Second Amendment is practically holy writ. Horrific gun violence—like the episodes at Salt Lake's Trolley Square and in Aurora, Columbine, West Virginia and Wisconsin—only seems to strengthen Utahns' hold on their guns.
No one knows what percentage of Utahns own guns because, unless a weapon was purchased from a licensed dealer, there's no record kept of guns sold. Utah scored a solid zero on the Brady Campaign's 2011 scorecard—that translates to some of the loosest gun laws in the nation. We have the most "valued" concealed weapons permit in the country. We can carry guns on campus, in bars, in the State Capitol, in most churches. We are home to the third biggest unregulated arms market in the country—owned by the Mormon church's KSL.com.
The other thing no one knows: Why the heck do Utahns love guns so much?

Xigmatek Gigas mATX Case Review
It isn't very often that here at OCC we take a look at something not designed to blow your gaming world mind. Instead of the usual, or even unusual, gaming cases, today we'll be taking a looking at a small form factor chassis designed with a little style to house your smaller components. Xigmatek has some interesting coolers, PSUs and a few chassis on the market. The Xigmatek Elysium was a beast of a case we had our hands on just a month or two back. Some of you may have had some experience with the older small cube cases from Aopen, or even some of the newer ones from Lian Li that are also quite tiny; the Xigmatek Gigas is something to compete in that category.
The Xigmatek Gigas, "the codex of gaming," is a micro-ATX small form factor chassis designed to handle quite the compact build. Supporting only micro-ATX and ITX boards, you likely won't be trying to fit your OC'd gaming rig inside; rather perhaps a nice little HTPC to encourage you out of your room once in awhile. However, it was designed to handle full length (up to 320mm) graphics cards – so you may be gaming yet. It is rather small in nature and aimed at those who want something a little stylish (either black or silver aluminum) that also isn't the center of attention in the room. Let's find out just how small this case really is, and just how far we can push its limits as I attempt to feed my usual review rig to its tiny innards.
Closer Look:
So when the Gigas showed up on my door, I wasn't quite sure what it was exactly. Like I've mentioned, review chassis are usually ginormous or normal sized, but rarely this. I recognized the Xigmatek logo but was wondering who had used the shrink ray on the box…it wasn't long before I realized it was the real size and brought it in the house for further inspection.
The front of the box has an isometric view of the silver Gigas (not sure if the black packaging is different – probably not) in the lower left corner and a strange lens flare-like object in the upper right corner. The lower right appears to be some ice formation while the upper left repeats the image. The center reads Gigas with a little blurb below talking about the case. The back of the box has about the same, actually exact same, look. The pictures below are actually all four sides of the box – no duplicates. The side of the box gives some features and specifications, which can be found on the respective page of this review. A large red dot also indicates which version of the case I've gotten – the "Gigas Silver."
Opening up the box, it's slightly different packing then you might normally see with a normal sized case. The usual foam caps are intact, just a bit smaller and covered in cardboard around the outer edges. Really it is about the same packing, just in a smaller box; you still get your plastic bag to protect the case from what have you and a nice small box on top with all your screws – or in my case an empty box with everything spilled about the box…
Out of the box and all the packing the Gigas doesn't look half bad in silver. It feels quite nicely built, and I'm actually a bit excited to start the challenge of a clown car packing with my hardware. It is a little heavier than expected for an all-aluminum mini case but you shouldn't strain yourself – it's no CM Storm Trooper. The only thing I do notice first is a slight color mismatch between the case and the external drive bay cover – the silvers just aren't quite the same…it's a little disappointing.

At his press conference this afternoon, President Obama was asked for his opinion on Rush Limbaugh's Sandra Fluke comments. He didn't want to speak to the sincerity of Limbaugh's apology or the fact that he's shedding advertisers at a breakneck pace, but he did offer a nice explanation for why he decided to call Sandra Fluke:
I thought about Malia and Sasha, and one of the things I want them to do as they get older is to engage in issues they care about, even ones I may not agree with them on. I want them to be able to speak their mind in a civil and thoughtful way, and I don't want them attacked or called horrible names because they're being good citizens.
A teachable moment if there ever was one. This sentiment shouldn't sound as revolutionarily sane as it does, but compared to what we've been hearing for the last few months, it makes your heart melt just to hear someone in politics talk about women doing something other than having endless slutty sex.

The Grand County Council voted unanimously on March 18 to approve a letter asking Uintah County officials if they would be interested in jointly studying the feasibility of developing an "enhanced transportation corridor" through the canyon.
According to the letter, one proposed study would look at potential routes, as well as the costs needed to develop a possible transportation corridor. A second study would focus on the economic benefits such a road could bring to both counties, Grand County Council chairman Lynn Jackson said.
It's not the first time officials in either county have broached the idea of building a new route that could shorten driving times between Moab and the booming Uintah Basin around Vernal.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, officials in both counties pushed for a 70-mile highway through the Book Cliffs, and in 2007, the Uintah County Commission sought Grand County's support for a new highway through Hay Canyon.
But both plans, along with similar proposals over the years, became mired in controversy and ultimately faded away.
More than two decades ago, the former Grand County Commission's support for a planned road created such an uproar among conservationists and local residents that citizens successfully pushed through a ballot initiative that eliminated the three-member commission. That process created the current seven-member council form of county government.
More recently, members of the 2007 Grand County Council voiced skepticism about Uintah County's revived proposal, noting that officials and citizens alike were concerned about the idea of committing future county revenues to the idea.
"All three of us were very clear that Grand County is neither interested nor able to invest public funds in this project," former Grand County Council member Bob Greenberg said in March 2007, according to an article in The Times-Independent.
Perhaps with that history in mind, Jackson emphasized that the current council simply aims to find out if Uintah County officials are interested in teaming up on a new study, or studies.
No decisions have been made, Jackson said, and no decisions are imminent.
"Before people get their shorts too bunched up ... We're just talking about a study," he told those in attendance at the council's March 18 meeting.
Grand County Council vice chairwoman Elizabeth Tubbs reiterated that the council's action is extremely limited in scope.
"We're not approving anything besides this letter," she said.
According to Jackson, county officials who are involved with the recently formed Eastern Utah Economic Development Coalition have already held informal discussions about the concept.
As Jackson and others began to work on a Utah congressman's ongoing public lands initiative, they felt it would be a good idea to analyze the feasibility of a transportation corridor through the Book Cliffs, he said.
As outlined in the letter to Uintah County, the studies would build on earlier surveys that looked at economic- and transportation-related issues in the Uintah Basin.
Among other things, the studies could examine the potential for hydrocarbon development on state School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration (SITLA) property in northern Grand County. They could also analyze the possible economic benefits of transporting energy resources from the southeastern Uintah Basin through the Book Cliffs to Interstate 70, the letter says.
In the past, project proponents were never able to overcome concerns about construction-related costs, or the potential impacts that a new Book Cliffs road could have on the surrounding environment.
Today, however, there are indications that funding to build and maintain a road could come from developers, as opposed to Grand County's residents, the letter says.
There's also a possibility that Grand County could add language to Rep. Rob Bishop's public lands initiative that – if approved – would give Grand County ownership of the road and right-of-way, according to the letter.
Ownership would allow the county to charge fees for every barrel of hydrocarbon fuels that energy companies transported down the road, or via a pipeline, the letter says.
While financial considerations about a Book Cliffs road may have changed, conservationists' concerns about the idea have not.
Castle Valley resident Michael Peck told the council that he is concerned about potential disturbances to archeological sites in the Sego Canyon area.
Dave Erley, Castle Valley's mayor, said he hopes a feasibility study would look at the impacts that energy development in the area could have on global climate change.
Environmentalists say that tar sands and oil shale mining in the Book Cliffs would produce three to five times more greenhouse gases than conventional petroleum development, and Erley suggested the county should consider those repercussions.
Grand County Attorney Andrew Fitzgerald called the idea of a Book Cliffs highway an "extremely divisive" issue in the community.
In light of past controversies, Fitzgerald suggested that Grand County should ensure that bias doesn't find its way into any feasibility studies.
If an analysis is done, the county needs to have a strong voice during that process, he said.
Jackson, in turn, said there was never any intent to cede control of the studies to Uintah County.
"We're not just going to turn something over to Uintah County," Jackson said, noting that he envisions the process as a collaboration between the two entities.
Additional information about the issue is available in the Grand County Council's March 18 packet, which is online at: www.grandcountyutah.net/pdf/council/2014_03_18_packet.pdf.

Shakespeare's Globe taking 'Hamlet' around world
LONDON (AP) — Shakespeare's Globe theater is about to take the Bard's words literally — "All the world's a stage."
The London theater announced Tuesday that it plans to tour a production of "Hamlet" to every country in the world, some 205 nations and territories in all.
The small-scale production, performed by a cast of eight, will tour the world between April 2014 and April 23, 2016 — the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death.
"By train, coach, plane and boat, we aim to take this wonderful, iconic, multifarious play to as many fresh ears as we possibly can," said artistic director Dominic Dromgoole.
The target of 205 nations and territories could vary a little, and exactly what constitutes a country is in some cases contested. The United Nations has 193 member states, while there were 204 teams in the London Olympics.
"We are aware that it is insanely ambitious," said Globe spokeswoman Emma Draper. But she said the company — and the British Council, a government-backed agency that will support the tour — believed it was possible.
Venues have yet to be determined, but will include Helsingor in Denmark — also known as Elsinore, where Shakespeare's tragedy is set — and Kenya's Rift Valley. The tour will start and end at Shakespeare's Globe, a replica Elizabethan playhouse on the south bank of the River Thames in London.
The tour is the flipside of last year's Globe to Globe festival, which brought troupes from around the world to London to perform Shakespeare's plays in 37 languages.
Theater director Peter Brook said "Hamlet" was "the most all-encompassing" and universal of Shakespeare's plays.
"The six simplest words in the English language are 'to be or not to be,'" he said. "There is hardly a corner of the planet where these words have not been translated.
"To take 'Hamlet' in its original language around the world is a bold and dynamic project," he said.

Starbucks' Howard Schultz Describes 2012 as 'Golden Age of Nutrition'
Starbucks' Schultz description aptly describes 2012 IFT Annual Meeting and Food Expo.
More than 18,000 attendees from all 50 states and nearly 80 countries attended the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) Annual Meeting & Food Expo June 26-28 in Las Vegas. This year's event featured 1,066 exhibitors, an 8 percent increase from last year.
Despite the economic challenges facing the nation and the world, business operators can prevail by staying authentic and transparent and managing their companies through a "lens of humanity," according to Howard Schultz, founder and chairman, president & CEO of Starbucks Corp.
As keynote speaker on the opening day of the show, he reflected on the principles that guided the company he took public 20 years ago. After years of growth and soaring stock prices – and his departure -- Starbucks "hit a wall" in 2007, Schultz said. When he returned to head the company in 2008, he needed to re-engineer and re-energize Starbucks – but not by neglecting the company's core values and its appreciation of people. And the company recovered nicely and is stronger than ever.
Schultz talked guardedly about Starbucks' plans to introduce new products and store formats, both focusing on juices and beverages, in part the result of its November 2011 acquisition of Evolution Fresh. He mentioned the company's goal to become a branded marketer of many more grocery products. He concluded by calling this the "golden age of nutrition. It's an exciting time."
The Institute of Food Technologists itself identified these bullet points as being important themes from the meeting and expo:
- Americans Increasingly Desire the Flavor and Health Benefits of Ethnic Foods--Americans increasingly want more ethnic foods and ingredients in their diets, many of which offer unique flavor and texture, and a variety of health benefits.
- Aging Population Focused on Foods to Preserve Health Now, Treat Conditions Later--The rising population of aging health-conscious consumers is driving demand for food products that support good health now, as well as medicinal treatment for conditions that arise in later years.
- The New Frontier in Food Science: Replicating the Nutrition, Texture and Taste of Meat and Eggs--Food scientists are working to replicate the nutrition, as well as the texture, taste and functionalities of meat and eggs, by utilizing plant-based products and in-vitro technologies.
- Skipping Breakfast Can Lead to Unhealthy Habits All Day Long--Compared to breakfast-eaters, breakfast-skippers tend to weigh more and have other unhealthy habits, such as consuming too many sugary drinks or high-calorie snacks.
- Front-of-Pack Labels Combined With In-Store Promotion Can Lead to Healthier Choices--Combining in-store promotion with nutrition labels on the front of food packaging can be a successful method for driving shoppers to make healthier choices.
- Child Obesity Rates Plateau: New Chance for Food Manufacturers to Make an Impact--A plateau in childhood obesity rates following a 20-year increase offers food manufacturers an opportunity to review successful strategies as well as consider new ideas for providing healthy, good-tasting options for the next generation. View the video.
- Human Digestion Simulators Provide Insight into the Path Food Takes--Simulations of the human digestive system have proven to be useful tools for scientists studying how the body processes food from the mouth through the intestines, including how it separates the nutrients for absorption.
- Natural Food Colorants Present Challenges in Maintaining Food Taste, Quality and Satisfaction--Food scientists and manufacturers face a number of hurdles in identifying and effectively using natural food colorants, without diminishing product quality, safety and consumer satisfaction.
When is a mismatch good? When it's a triacylglycerols mismatch, which is the key technology behind Bunge Oils' (www.bunge.com) Saturate Sparing Technology. Using proprietary non-lipid ingredients, blending and crystallization processes, the company produces all-purpose and emulsified shortenings with saturate levels reduced by more than 40 percent. Part of the UltraBlends family, the products also have zero grams trans fat per serving and provide greater levels of heart-healthy mono- and polyunsaturated levels over traditional shortening. The company also unveiled its second mobile food truck, M.O.E. II (stands for Mobile Oil Experts).
TIC Gums (www.ticgums.com) introduced the Add-Here 3200 line of products to help reduce or eliminate the use of sugar for binding, film forming, stability, bonding and cling in granola, cereal or energy bars. Add-Here 3200 is a hydrocolloid system formulated to bind particulates commonly found in granola, cereal, and energy bars while significantly reducing the amount of sugar, honey and/or high-fructose corn syrup in the formula. At the show, granola bars made with Add-Here 3200 demonstrated how the texture and appeal of a fully sugared product can be very closely mimicked or even improved upon with hydrocolloids.
Viterra, which itself was a merger of several Canadian grain-trading co-operatives, which later acquired 21st Century Grain Processing, continues its merger into Glencore, a commodities trading firm headquartered in Switzerland. Innovation also continues, with dual texture clusters from its oat and specialty grain milling division being introduced at the IFT Expo. The customized mixtures blend any number of grains into a crunchy granola to be mixed with fruit pieces, which provide a flavor burst and chewiness. That ought to make your bar-making a little easier. The company's Dakota Growers Pasta Co. debuted VeggieServe Pasta, which squeezes a full serving (half cup) of vegetables as well as 28g of whole grains into a serving, with a number of shapes (twisted elbow, spaghetti, rotini, penne rigate) available.

text: blog postsGetting Involved on CampusSep 30, 2013 9:54 am by Varshini KumarShare on FacebookTweetEmail"You can make a big school small, but you can't make a small school big." Hearing this was one of the defining moments in my college experience. Within the first week of school, I attended Quad Day. Quad Day cannot be described in words, it is one of those things that you have to see in person to fully grasp. Seeing the hundreds of tables with their slogans and free giveaways, it was easy to feel overwhelmed- but that was the best part- there was an infinite amount of things you could do on campus. And if you didn't find something you wanted to do (which was near impossible), then you could start a club yourself that did do whatever it was. I realized early in the school year that I wanted to be a part of a professional organization as well as a social organization on campus. Recruitment for both these types of organizations was not only right at the beginning of the semester, but also around the same time. Though I was kept busy at the beginning running from meeting to meeting, I finally found my niche within Business Council and a sorority here on campus. These two organizations gave me outlets for different things. When I needed to relax and take a load off, I could partake in social events. When I wanted to buckle down and get work done, I could do homework with my friends in Business Council. Overall, getting involved has helped me find my niche within a big school. This involvement however should never take away from school work. This balancing act doesn't come easy, but when you finally learn how to juggle the group projects and meetings, it all becomes worth it. stats22 Views 0 Comments additional actions Add Comment
