Without knowing the roots of drug abuse, it is very difficult to do something positive for driving away drug abuse from the society. The article talks about some of the most prominent causes of drug addiction.
Often we talk about drug abuse, its effects and sometimes about drug addiction treatments as well. Seldom have we pondered over the thoughts why addiction to several addictive substances is on constant rise! Can you ever disagree that without knowing roots of the problem, you cannot solve a problem? It is exactly true in case of addiction too. Unless you know why people become addicted to drugs so easily, you can hardly cure any kind of addiction. Well, not one but many factors are collectively responsible for societies being stuck with addiction crisis.
Some of those factors that easily excite people towards drugs are unhappiness in personal life, any kind of failure in love, education or job, prolonged sickness, separation from loved ones, and more importantly, crime. A person can easily become a victim of drug abuse if he or she is involved in any sort of crime. Psychologists explain that, for committing a crime, a person needs some extra courage and energy. Needless to mention, the source of extra energy is derived from drugs. Daily drug use of the criminals is much intense when compared to other abusers.
Personal grief and frustration stands to be one of the most common causes for addiction to drugs. A person can get addicted to a drug when his personal expectations are not fulfilled. Such a happening can take place anywhere and anytime. From a family mishap to sudden redundancy, personal grief can spring from anything and everything. A person can develop dependence on any sort of substance following any of such miseries that occurs to his personal life.
As many experts discern, easy availability of drugs is another reason for abuse of drugs. By saying so, they mainly refer to prescription drugs and the over-the-counter drugs. The main problem of the prescription drugs is that one can avail such substances from the medicine shops and the online drug stores as well. More and more people get addicted to drugs simply because they can avail the substances easily and without any difficulty. Interestingly, these abusers are somewhat different from the commonplace ones. Prescription drug abuse mainly begins from the actual requirement of the drugs that are prescribed as medicines principally.
Another overlooked factor, which is a genuine harbinger of signs of drug abuse, is the trend of following a fad. Drugs, in some places are just as fashion statements. Drug abusers consider them being smarter than other people are. Such a trend is more vividly observable in several educational institutions and sports clubs. This is in fact the main reason sportsmen and teenage students are frequently found in the trap of drug abuse. While attempting to drive away drug abuse from the society, one should give more importance to its origination roots for curing the crisis from the root.

Laughter Yoga and Live In Senior Care
Laughter yoga and live in senior care with Senior Helpers of . Call 970-658-8228 today!
Laughter is the best medicine. We have all heard that saying before at one point or another. Laughter reduces stress, can improve overall mood, and create a more positive outlook on life. Laughing in a group can help to break down walls and allows participants to reconnect through lighthearted playfulness. Laughter can boost the immune system with an increased production of disease fighting cells and quickly induces a state of relaxation. Laughter is contagious, and unlike most medicines, offers no bad side effects.
While laughter yoga may not be a new form of activity, it may be new to your elderly loved one. Laughter yoga is a combination of deep controlled breathing, stretching and forced laughter that engages your core and improves lung capacity. Madan Kataria, M.D., the founder of Laughing Clubs International, created in 1995, claims that laughter yoga helps build self-esteem and confidence. Laughing keeps senior loved ones in good cheer and rids the body of stress, worry and depression. The main purpose of laughter yoga is to enjoy childlike fun and play. Laughter Yoga is unique because it involves eye contact and childlike playfulness, which soon turns into real and contagious laughter. Since your body can't tell the difference between real and contrived laughter, your senior loved one can enjoy many benefits from laughter yoga. As with all things, the more effort you put in, the better the pay off, and in this case, more joy, happiness, lightness, and laughter.
Studies have shown that laughter can actually create physical changes in the body. Laughing will increase blood flow and introduce more oxygen into the body cells. A study performed at the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore found that laughing improves blood vessel function and circulation. Laughter yoga is a great form of low-impact exercise for an elderly loved one. Not only will their heart rate increase as if they were actively participating in a mild form of exercise, with laughter yoga, their mood and overall health will also improve. Laughter has been shown to reduce the level of stress hormones in the blood. For this reason, some might consider it a well-being exercise.
Laughter yoga may be particularly beneficial for seniors and elderly loved ones, who are more likely to feel useless or depressed after retirement. Combined with live in senior care, a senior loved one can find a more improved and positive outlook on life with laughter yoga.
Senior Helpers of Fort Collins proudly provides live in senior care, companionship, care for veterans, transportation and expert assistance with Alzheimer's and dementia care.

Monday morning, as I sat down on the train headed to the Bulldog Reporter 2010 Media Relations Summit, I had trouble getting past the front page of The New York Times. No, it wasn't the story about "online bullies" or the "G20 agreement to halve budget deficits," but a part of its masthead: "All the news that's fit to print."
I am bothered by the fact that the motto remains tied to a particular format, when in fact The New York Times Digital ranked 13th on the newly released comScore report of top 50 web properties. I enjoy reading The New York Times online via my BlackBerry, following @nytimes on Twitter and receiving its RSS feeds in my reader. I listen to NYtimes.com podcasts and watch NY Times videos. The various formats and channels each offer a unique purpose and different advantage in storytelling.
When I arrived at the conference I paid particular attention to how other media organizations were evolving. During the first roundtable I moderated, Glenn Coleman, managing director, Crain's New York Business, discussed the different methods of outreach and subscription types available to readers. Alongside the original print edition, there is a digital edition, several premium specialized newsletters, as well as free email alerts consisting of daily, weekly, industry and company email alerts delivering the day's breaking business news.
Likewise, at my second roundtable, Joe Ciarallo, editor of PRNewser and manager of PR initiatives for mediabistro.com, noted that the MediaBistro community receives content and information from a wide array of platforms. In addition to its original blog, MediaBistro reaches its audience using targeted blogs such as PR Newser, TV Newser, and Agency Spy, premium content, and opportunities for members, live events and an active social media presence.
So what is the new standard of newsworthiness – the new goal of media organizations striving to be that essential trusted source of news? During the conference Rand Morrison, executive producer, CBS News Sunday Morning, wisely remarked that, "Long is shorter than it used to be." Perhaps an updated motto for The New York Times would be "All the news that's fit to tweet." But seriously, the motto should no longer focus on one particular format, but rather on consumption, discussion, or sharing. I'll put it to you, the BurrellesLuce Fresh Ideas community. What do you think would be a more appropriate motto for today's New York Times?

For his series "Normal Town/Normal View" Michael ten Pas composed photographs with the seemingly mundane objects in what we tend to think of as equally mundane towns, but through his juxtapositions and re-framings, he shows us how much there is to look at in what we overlook. It's easy to forget that we all effectively live in a museum if we choose to see it that way. Michael breaks it down in his series statement:
"Nothing is boring. I find myself perplexed, curious, and amazed when I look at my everyday surroundings – the things that are allegedly normal or status quo. This is what ought to happen because the everyday is not predictable, though it is made out to be. The world reveals irony and absurdity; it contains mystery and humor and is full of ambiguity and illusion."

By John Norton
This will be a big year for implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), and the National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) will track the process closely on behalf of NCPA members and the patients they serve. NCPA recently submitted comments about the ACA's Multi-State Plans (MSPs) being designed by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
These MSPs will be offered in every state health insurance exchange and are a subset of the Qualified Health Plans that will also be offered in the exchanges. Specifically, NCPA's comments called for "restating the PBM reporting requirements" mandated for all exchange plans under the ACA, and implementing "the PBM transparency provisions" that OPM recently put into place for the Federal Employees Health Benefit plan (FEHBP) for the MSPs in any final rule.
MSPs must comply with the transparency provisions in the ACA regarding retail and mail order pharmacies. Applying that standard universally going forward will help allow MSPs to both manage the prescription benefit portion of the plan and better calculate "PBM fees into medical/quality expenses versus administrative expenses for the purpose of compliance with the required medical loss ratio (MLR) calculation."
Estimates from the PBM transparency provision implemented in 2011 for FEHBP discovered that the drug benefit accounted for one-third of the costs of the entire program. As a result OPM " responded by requiring PBMs that serve the FEHBP to make certain necessary disclosures that go above and beyond those required under the ACA."
NCPA wants that "lessons learned" approach applied to MSPs.
NCPA's comments also suggested that the minimum pharmacy access standards (like those under TRICARE and Medicare Part D) should be required in MSPs, because independent pharmacies are accessible, patient-centered, and offer the safety net of health care providers in many communities that are otherwise underserved.
In addition, NCPA urges that OPM not equate mail order pharmacy with access to the face-to-face interaction of a local pharmacy. In other words, the issue of "limited network capacity in hard-to-serve regions" should not be an excuse for further promotion or incentivizing of mail order pharmacies, which don't necessarily meet the needs of all patients. MSPs should also comply with any applicable state provisions such as "any willing provider," PBM audit, or mandatory mail order pharmacy laws as well. Finally, NCPA suggested, in the interests of improving health, that MSPs include an annual pharmacist-provided, medication therapy review when appropriate.
NCPA's efforts have been successful so far in getting standards put in place that work for patients and plan sponsors of prescription drug benefits, along with attempting to level the playing field so that independent pharmacies can continue to compete in the marketplace. We will remain engaged as the process winds its way to completion this year.

WOODSTOCK – Had Matt Bean followed the path he'd originally laid out, the 36-year-old would be a half-decade removed from earning an M.D. and a Ph.D.
Instead, he changed course and ended up the editor of Entertainment Weekly. The Woodstock High School graduate was hired as the publication's editorial leader earlier this year, coming over from his job as managing editor of Sports Illustrated's SI.com.
Bean had a change of heart during the twilight of his college life at the University of Chicago. Studying neurobiology and biopsychology at the time and eyeing a long road to a dual doctorate, he decided instead to attend graduate school at Columbia University in New York City – not for medicine, but for journalism.
He's never looked back.
Friday, as Bean's first year on the new job ticks on, he talked on the phone with reporter Shawn Shinneman. The two discussed Bean's late-blooming pursuit of journalism, his currently hectic but satisfying day-to-day, and the ways the Internet has changed the experience of growing up in small-town Woodstock.
Shinneman ranked somewhere south of No. 1 on the list of Bean's most interesting conversations of the day. Earlier, Bean had talked to "the dude" himself, actor Jeff Bridges. All in a day's work.
Shinneman: How the heck do you go from neurobiology and biopsychology to journalism?
Bean: Well, I kind of always loved working on the school paper. I was running the culture and entertainment section of the student alt-weekly, and I thought I'd just try journalism for a year before signing up for the 10 years or whatever it would have been to get the M.D.-Ph.D. I was aiming for. ... And I figured I could always go back to medicine.
Shinneman: When you got into journalism, did you have a vision for your career path?
Bean: I was really just excited by the whole, what do you do, day in and day out – that it would never be the same thing in journalism. ... You essentially had a license to be curious for the rest of your life. It was exciting to me because I knew I could continue to reinvent what it was I did.
Shinneman: You mention your day-to-day. What is that like now that you've come over to Entertainment Weekly? I think the movie stereotype of the magazine editor is that they live a very hectic life. The phone's always ringing and they're always on the go. Do you get much sleep?
Bean: I've never really been busier than I am now, but I've also never loved my job as much. I was just over at Sirius radio. We have a channel, 105 on SiriusXM. And every once in a while I'll conduct a town hall, whether it's with Samuel L. Jackson, Jeff Bridges. We had Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum.
But Jeff Bridges was over there with me today, and what an amazing opportunity to sit down and talk to someone who has truly been able to write his own script. Just really inspirational, really interesting, and he's such a good dude.
Shinneman: So the transition is going well ...
Bean: Absolutely.
Shinneman: You grew up in Woodstock. ... How often do you get back?
Bean: I was just back a couple weeks ago. I come back probably three, four times a year.
Shinneman: When you tell your friends and colleagues in New York about Woodstock, what do you say? How do you classify the area?
Bean: The easiest way to do it is to ask whether or not they've seen "Groundhog Day." That's shorthand. If you have, then you're familiar with the town.
Someone who's grown up in a city the size of New York might not understand what it's like to grow up in a town the size of Woodstock. And kids in Woodstock these days, they might not understand that Woodstock was a very different place before you had the Internet.
Shinneman: How so?
Bean: Well I don't know how old you are, but...
Shinneman: Twenty-five.
Bean: So you were playing around on the Internet when you were bored, and you got to learn about all these places. Whatever intellectual curiosity you had, you could scratch that itch by just logging on.
Well, I'm 36. The Internet was kind of around by the end of my teenage years in Woodstock. But they were just bulletin boards. It wasn't this wealth of resources. We kind of had to make our own fun. We spent a whole lot of time at the library just trying to expand our horizons. But it was just a different experience. It was much more about living your life than having chances to escape it.
Shinneman: Have you gotten used to New York City through the years?
Bean: I think I've learned how to deal with it. I like leaving the city, to just unwind. I don't think it's ever possible to get used to the pace of it here. I can bear it, and I love the fact that you can always get something great to eat, you can always see a band. You typically get access to a lot of really great stuff first.
But I don't know if it's growing up in the suburbs or Woodstock in particular, but I like things to slow down every once in a while.

In 2010, Sim Chi Yin threw away the "cushy, secure life" that comes with the job of staff foreign correspondent for the Straits Times, Singapore's popular English-language daily, to become a freelance photographer. "I wanted to learn to swim or sink on my own," she tells TIME.
Four years later, Sim has established herself as a photojournalist, working regularly on assignment for the New York Times. "In 2010, I got a Magnum Foundation fellowship, which allowed me to study with photographer Susan Meiselas and [academic] Fred Ritchin," she says. "This prepared me for my major transition from text journalism to freelance photography."
Now, after spending three years in VII Photo's Mentor Program, with Marcus Bleasdale overseeing her work, Sim has been offered a position of interim member at the agency. "It's a great honor to be offered a spot in a collective with some of the leading documentary photographers in the field," she says. "Since I quit my writing job, I've been thrown into assignment photographic work rather quickly. I now would very much like to do more thoughtful, meaningful projects and group projects on global issues."
For the next couple of years, Sim will pay VII Photo's monthly membership fees and participate in the agency's internal meetings, but she won't hold voting rights. In 2016, she will be able to apply for full membership.
"Agencies aren't really about getting assignments and resales these days," she notes. "There's of course some brand recognition that comes with being associated with VII, especially in the West, but for me it really comes down to what I can do within this group—banding together under the broad common interests of doing socially meaningful storytelling."
Sim also hopes she'll be able to build VII Photo's profile in China and across Asia. "China is an important country, and I hope to be able to find partnerships in this part of the world [to create links] with the Western-centered photography industry," she tells TIME. "I believe we can use visual storytelling and photography, both universal languages, to enhance our bonds and build understanding."
In the meantime, Sim is finishing her long-term project, "Dying to Breathe," a print and multimedia body of work on Chinese gold miners who suffer from silicosis. "I'm currently drafting a community engagement campaign for that project, using photographs as a base to craft a public health education plan."
Her nine years as a print journalist has deeply influenced that work, she says. "In a place like China, sometimes reporting calls for quick judgment and a whole lot of strategizing—how to get what you need without getting caught, without getting the subject into trouble, for instance." As a writer, she's learned to find stories, research them and hone the news angle—precious skills for a photographer on assignment.
"When I first started filing pictures to VII, the staff remarked that all my captions were long and felt like mini stories. I think there are a lot of great images and very well informed projects. But I think there are also images that can [benefit from] more research and rigor. I'd like to see more photographers writing about their work, the craft and their subjects. It's always interesting to read, especially since photographers [usually] spend more time with their subjects than writers do. We should be hearing their voices."
Sim Chi Yin is a photographer based in Beijing, China. She is represented by VII Photo.

First Year Seminar Program
Jodi Cohen, Coordinator and Professor of Speech Communication
First-year students in the School of Humanities and Sciences are encouraged to begin their college experience with a first-year seminar taken during the fall semester. The seminars are four-credit general education courses specifically designed to help first-year students establish a solid academic and social foundation for a meaningful college experience. Each seminar is taught by one or more members of the H&S faculty, incorporating disciplinary knowledge in the liberal arts with experiential learning activities, both in and out of the classroom. The first-year seminar instructor is the academic adviser of all students in the seminar who are either in the Exploratory Program or are declared majors in the instructor's home department. Some of the seminars are seminars in residence, where students share a common residential experience during the first semester. Students can only receive credit for one first-year seminar.
The goals of the H&S first year seminar program are
1. To help students work toward a deeper understanding of and tolerance for perspectives outside the students' own experience by
a. providing challenging courses in engaging topic areas that make connections among the liberal arts as reflected in the School of Humanities and Sciences general education program,
b. encouraging students to be active participants in the learning process through analysis, interpretation, and evaluation of course material, and
c. developing each student's ability to articulate his or her perspective in both written and spoken communication.
2. To provide a foundation for a meaningful college experience by
a. smoothing the academic and social transitions faced by students during the first semester,
b. creating a supportive, small group experience in the first year that fosters intensive interaction with faculty and other students,
c. integrating academic and cocurricular activities to provide first-year students with a coherent and broad introduction to the college experience, and
d. fostering excellent advising relationships, especially for new exploratory students.
Seminars change yearly.

Price of a Job Saved by China Tire Duties: Nearly $1 Million – Report
President Obama was so proud of the jobs saved by shutting off imports of Chinese tires he cited the action in his 2012 State of the Union Address. According to analysts Gary Hufbauer and Sean Lowry of the Peterson Institute for International Economics, known for its support of free trade, the victory had a heck of a cost: at least $936, 000 for each job saved.
Here's how their analysis works: They accept Mr. Obama's claim that the action, which was legal under World Trade Organization rules, saved 1,200 jobs. But the result of slapping heavy duties on Chinese imports was a stiff increase in tire prices. The vast majority of the tires sold in place of Chinese tires were made in other foreign countries, the analysts say.
In all, Americans spent $1.12 billion more than they otherwise would have on tires. Divide that by 1,200 jobs, and the cost is $936,000 per job.
But that's not the end of the costs. The additional spending on tires – essentially the same effect as a tax – meant that Americans had $1.12 billion less to spend on other things. Messrs Hufbauer and Lowry figure that could have reduced retail employment by about 3,500 jobs. In the end, they say, the tariff was a net job killer.
So who won? "Most of the money landed in the coffers of tire companies, mainly abroad but also at home," said the analysts.
What about the value of standing up to the Chinese? Well, the Chinese didn't back down. Instead, they retaliated by slapping $1 billion in tariffs on U.S. exports of chicken parts. The U.S. objected and the two countries are battling out that action at the WTO.
"The best thing about the tire tariffs is that they expire in 2013," Messrs. Hufbauer and Lowry conclude.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) Les Miles knows that LSU might not get away with settling for field goals against a Texas A&M team coming off a 59-point performance.
After grinding out a high-stakes, 23-21 victory at home against previously unbeaten South Carolina last Saturday night, the sixth-ranked Tigers began preparations on Monday for a trip to College Station, Texas.
The 11 a.m. kickoff could be the start of a long day if LSU's defense isn't sharp against freshman quarterback Johnny Manziel and the Aggies prolific offense.
``I hope we can contain'' Manziel, Miles said. ``The good thing is that our defense will be one of the fastest he will have seen. Hopefully we will use a style of pressure that's most effective. At times it's going to be coverage and keeping him in the pocket, and other times, hopefully we can get to him.''
The 20th-ranked Aggies have won five consecutive games since losing at home to No. 3 Florida in their season opener. In four of the five victories, Texas A&M scored at least 48 points. Last weekend, the Aggies won a 59-57 shootout against Louisiana Tech.
Manziel accounted for an SEC-record 576 yards against the Bulldogs. He ran for 181 yards and three touchdowns and completed 24 of 40 passes for 395 yards and three touchdowns. In six games, Manziel has nearly 2,400 yards of total offense.
One area in which Miles said he must see improvement is red-zone offense. LSU had four drives that reached at least the South Carolina 15 yard-line but did not produce touchdowns. Drew Alleman attempted four field goals, making three and missing one.
``We have to take care of our responsibilities'' in the red zone, Miles said. ``We can't turn the ball over. We have to execute well. Our guys are more understanding that we're getting down there so often and not coming away with 7s. We are normally getting 3s. That has to change.''
Against the Gamecocks, the field goals were enough to avoid back-to-back losses for the first time in four years and keep LSU in the hunt for a national title.
In that game, however, the Tigers rode the energy of a pumped-up home crowd in Death Valley, where they've now won a school record 22 straight.
``The memory of Tiger Stadium is always renewed when you bring in a quality opponent,'' Miles said. ``The crowd started on the first play and our team played to that. I can't tell you how much we enjoy playing there.''
Other than whipping Washington, LSU had few thoroughly impressive performances during the first half of its schedule. A loss against South Carolina would have put the Tigers in dire straits in the Southeastern Conference Western Division standings.
Instead, LSU overcame the absence of three starters on the offensive line for its best rushing performance of the season. True freshman Jeremy Hill had 124 yards, 50 of which came on a victory-clinching touchdown in the fourth quarter. The right side of the line consisted of redshirt freshman Trai Turner and true freshman Vadal Alexander.
Hill ``has a very quality football IQ and just a natural sense for what should be and what shouldn't be,'' Miles said. ``He has great ball skills, and of course his size and speed combination lets you know that he was going to have that opportunity to play. The thing that you wonder about a freshman is how he will respond when the lights turn on in a game like last Saturday night. ... Jeremy responded very strong.''
By edging the Gamecocks, LSU remained one game behind Alabama and Mississippi State in the SEC West standings.
After playing Texas A&M, LSU will have a week off, giving the Tigers two weeks to prepare for a highly anticipated match-up with No.1 Alabama. The Tigers also will host Mississippi State on Nov. 10.
Of course, the stakes won't be quite as high for LSU if it can't slow down the Aggies, who are in their first season of SEC play after coming over from the Big 12.
``We'll look very forward to playing Texas A&M at Kyle Field,'' said Miles, who had success in the Big 12 as Oklahoma State's coach before taking the LSU job. ``The early morning game, I think we'll also look forward to that, get in and get it going.''

Former Gadsden City receiver Daryl Collins has been a hot topic in the offseason in Kentucky.
HOOVER — Former Gadsden City receiver Daryl Collins has been a hot topic in the offseason in Kentucky.
Several publications in the state expect him to make an impact for first-year Wildcats coach Mark Stoops, one going so far as to say Collins could be the No. 1 option for the Wildcats.
As for Stoops expectations? He didn't sound very optimistic Wedensday at Southeastern Conference media days.
"I'm not sure yet," Stoops said. "That's yet to be seen. We'll see how practices go and go from there."
Stoops didn't elaborate and quickly moved on to the next question.
Collins played in all 12 games last season for the Wildcats. He caught 17 passes for 171 yards with his best game coming against Louisville when he made seven receptions for 64 yards. He returned six kickoffs and three punts.
Collins was expected to see playing time as a freshman for the Wildcats before a knee injury forced him to redshirt.
At Gadsden City, he played wide receiver, tailback, quarterback and also returned kicks. He was rated a top-20 prospect in the state of Alabama his senior year in 2011.
Everyone knows Johnny Manziel returns at quarterback for the Texas A&M Aggies this season. What some might forget is that Aggie offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury does not.
Kingsbury left in the offseason to take over as head coach at Texas Tech, his alma mater. He leaves big shoes to fill, as Kingsbury's offense was one of the most potent in the nation last season.
"I think Kliff is going to do an outstanding job," Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin said. "He understands the culture in Lubbock. He played there and won there (and) he's excited to be there. I look for him to do a really, really good job there at Texas Tech."
Under Kingsbury's guidance, Texas A&M's offense ranked third nationally in 2012 with an average of 552 yards per game. He was named the national offensive coordinator of the year for the second consecutive season.
Kingsbury is the youngest head coach in a BCS conference at 33 years old. Despite how young he is, Sumlin said he was not surprised Texas Tech hired Kingsbury.
"You've got to remember, in my five years of being a head coach, this is going to be my sixth year, I'm very, very fortunate to have a number of head coaches come out of our program," said Sumlin, referencing West Virginia's Dana Holgorsen, Houston's Tony Levine and Nevada's Brian Polian. "Of all the things we've been able to accomplish over the last five, six years, I think I'm really, really proud of that. I think we've developed a culture and a mindset and really helped guys become head coaches.
"I don't see Kliff any different. I think he's a very, very talented individual. He's a guy that understands the game of football, understands the politics of the position. He's going to learn and grow, just like every young head coach, just like I am still."
Manziel, who won the Heisman Trophy last season, said he had mixed emotions about Kingsbury leaving.
"I talk to him either every day or every other day," Manziel said. "We still keep in touch. He was such a big part of my life, someone I really look up to.
"I selfishly wanted him to stay but it was kind of his dream job, going back to his alma mater."
Coordinator of Officials Steve Shaw opened SEC media days Wednesday by announcing a few rule changes, including one he called "the most significant rule change in my tenure."
Targeting a defenseless player now will result in an ejection from the game. If the foul occurs in the second half of a game, the player will be ejected and must sit out the first half of the team's next game.
"Playing time is a motivator to our players, and we think this will have a pretty significant impact," Shaw said. "The rules committee really believes this will make a difference."
Instant replay will be used to evaluate the ejection portion of the penalty. If it's determined the player did not commit a foul, he will be allowed to reenter the game immediately.
"This is an important foul, and if it's called, we have to be right 100 percent of the time," Shaw said. "Bottom line, our conference demands that we're as good as our teams. (That's) A big challenge."
Some other rule changes were discussed:
• Only one play will be allowed to run if the game clock is under three seconds at the end of the first quarter or the game. This will affect a quarterback spiking the ball to stop the clock, and if he spikes it with less than three seconds, that will be the final play. "The quarterback will know, if he looks up and sees two seconds left, he's got to run his play, he can't spike it," Shaw said.
• There will be a 10-second runoff if an offensive player is injured in the final minute of the first half or the game if there is no other reason for the clock to be stopped.
• Last year a player had to go out of the game for one play if his helmet came off. Now a team can call a timeout and get the player back in the game.

Improvements to Fort Collins' Lincoln Center to be done by September
There's a reason why Fort Collins' Lincoln Center has not been in the news much lately. The 32-year-old performing-arts facility is undergoing an $8 million renovation, which is expected to be completed by mid-summer, with plenty of time to spare for a grand reopening on Sept. 17.
The project, which includes 17,000 square feet of expanded space, incorporates a new rooftop deck, art gallery and expanded lobby space with improved amenities. In addition, the acoustics are being improved in both of the center's theaters.
Lincoln Center plans to announce its 2011-12 season in May. For more information visit lctix.com.

This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2012, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
For those who think their backyard is just too small for a vegetable garden, Salt Lake City author Chris Gleason has two words: Grow up.
Vertical gardening, as the name implies, uses trellises, racks, ladders and other small structures so plants grow up, rather than out, which consumes valuable space.
Plants with vines, such as peas, beans and grapes, are obvious choices for vertical gardening, said Gleason, in his new DIY book: Building Projects of Backyard Farmers and Home Gardeners ($19.95, Fox Chapel Publishing). But unexpected plants, such as squash, cucumbers, and tomatoes, can be trained to grow vertically, creating unique landscape features in the process.
"Last year, we grew tomatoes up to seven feet high," Gleason said during a recent interview. "This year I want to go higher and do a sort of tunnel that my daughter can walk through."
Gleason, his wife a biology professor at Weber Sate University and his 4-year-old daughter live in an average-size home, on a relatively small lot, close to downtown Salt Lake City. By using vertical gardening techniques, they were able to grow more than a dozen different vegetables last summer, including plants, like pumpkins and potatoes, that typically take a lot of space.
"We have a little place and the lot is not very big, but it's surprising what you can do in small spaces," Gleason said.
For the past 15 years, Gleason has been a full-time woodworker, building projects and cabinets through his business, Gleason Woodworking.
Several years ago, he began sharing his skills in how-to books, detailing how to build furniture from wood pallets and how-to make-over your kitchen. Last year, he released The Art of the Chicken Coop, which tapped into the interest in backyard chickens. Library Journal named it a 2011 "Best Book" in the DIY category.
Gleason decided to write Building Projects because of the rediscovered appeal of gardening, which has become one of the country's fastest-growing hobbies, and he wanted people to be inspired to try different projects.
He devoted a whole chapter of the 159-page book to vertical gardening, because it's an easy way for gardeners to see success. Plants can be placed closer together, which maximizes yield. The method helps eliminate unwanted bugs and pests because there are fewer places for them to hide. Gleason said gardeners also find it easier to harvest their crops with less waste because vegetables aren't hidden from view and accidentally left on the ground to rot.
Besides the seven vertical gardening projects (see accompanying list), Gleason's book gives step-by-step instructions for 14 other projects, such as how to build a rainwater harvesting system, raised beds, compost boxes, vermiculture (worm) bins and cold frames to extend the growing season.
In the book, Gleason also profiles four of his Utah gardening heroes, including the nonprofit Wasatch Community Gardens and Kyle LaMalfa, an avid gardener who helped launch the Sunday People's Market, and in January began serving as a Salt Lake City councilman.
All the projects in Gleason's book can be built with scrap wood or with materials that can easily be purchased at lumber or home improvement stores. He promotes easy and practical projects that will look good in urban yards.
"I make stuff that doesn't cost a lot of money," Gleason said.

Seven projects in one book
Chris Gleason of Salt Lake City explains how to build seven vertical gardening projects in his new DIY book, Building Projects for Backyard Farmers and Home Gardeners ($19.95, Fox Chapel Publishing)
In a nutshell
Bean leaner • Lean a trellis against a wall or fence. Plant beans at its base. The beans will climb the trellis as they grow.
Grapevine ladder • Use a ladder to encourage upward growth of grapevines. Make sure the ladder is sturdy as grapevines can become quite heavy.
Pea trellis • Create an upright trellis with chicken wire, mesh, lattice or twine for pea plants to climb.
Potato planter • Build a wooden box around a cluster of potato plants. As they grow, cover the plants with mulch and straw. Potatoes will continue to set below the exposed foliage.
Squash ramp • Similar to the bean leaner. Create a ramp using vertical posts and sturdy mesh. As the squash plants grow, the vines will climb the ramp and keep vegetables off the ground.
Tiered lettuce rack • Create a rack with tiered shelves, (top racks are set back, bottom shelves set forward.) Fill several shallow plastic containers (from the dollar store) with soil and sow lettuce seeds. Place the containers on the tiered shelves, which will allow for even sun exposure.
Tomato wall • Create a trellis by setting two vertical posts securely at either end of a row of tomato plants. Stretch chicken wire, concrete mesh, lattice or twine between the two posts. Be sure to select "indeterminate" tomato varieties such as Better Boys, Big Beef or Early Girls. Determinate tomatoes don't climb.

The Cambodian Genocide Programhttp://www.yale.edu/cgp/Between 1975 and 1979, some 1.5 to 2 millionCambodians died unnatural deaths, fromstarvation, overwork, torture and execution.The CGP includes a database of biographies,pictures of victims, maps of detention campsand killing fields, and historical documents.
Genocide Links: Students of History at Concordiahttp://cug.concordia.ca/~shac/l_gen.htmlThis one is really a fantastic starting point for sites concerning various genocides including a link to a collection of personal accounts of the killing fields of Cambodia which are very moving.
All of the following sites deal specifically with the Armenian genocide
Armenian Research Center Home Pagehttp://www.umd.umich.edu/dept/armenianOf particular interest here are the "factsheets" -I believe that these pages also have the quote of Hitler, preparing the Death Heads for their march on Poland, saying, "for who today remembers the annihilation of the Armenians…" -powerful stuff.
The Armenian Causehttp://armen-info.com/lacause/This one is bilingual, English and French.
The Armenian Genocidehttp://imia.cc.duth.gr/turkey/arme.e.htmlthis site has links to some c. 1916 photographs of the Armenian genocide)
Thank you again, it is so important to engage each other in dialog,

TheRedQueen wrote:Okay, we're back to the drawing board. I bought a bag of Instinct, for the Wiener...since he liked the sample. He's not eating all of his food, and picking through it (I think he's eating the Evo out). He'll eat a whole bowl if I mix in something tasty (canned food, broth, etc)...but he won't eat the dry out of his treat dispensing toys in the morning. He's *maybe* eating a cup of food a day...and is losing weight on days where I don't mix stuff in. This little dog feeding is weird...he's only 10-11#, so if he loses weight, it's apparent within a day or so.
I'm thinking I'll get a bag of BG, since he really liked the sample...it's a bit further to drive to this store...and I don't like the owners as well...but it's all about the Wiener.

Current Selections
To create the organic pattern on these coverlets, pure cotton fabric is woven, cut and sewn by the last matelassé mill in the U.S. The undyed coverlets are then sent to Brooklyn to be garment dyed in small batches, producing rich colors and slight variation in hues. After a few trips through your washer, the variations even out and leave behind beautiful color and a vintage, yet modern, look.See the full Thea collection
The history of this family-owned company based in Monmouth, Maine, dates back to the 1850s. The team who works there today has more than 350 years of combined textile experience and many have family ties to the business.

The Avatar wrote:I guess you'll have to do the same to Tomithy if you want to win.
xspeedballx wrote:On topic about monks, I wonder if with their original 50/50 reduction they could have been balanced with a reduction in spell casting ability. Maybe starting with 5 mana? Or having no natural mana recovery(reverse bludtopowa) but get 1 mana per kill(inherent blue bead). In my other post I spoke about flavor, and I am just trying to maintain it in this very fun and unique class, and I feel less of it with the recent change.
xspeedballx wrote:On another note and this is just general, I think a class that gained mana and/or health back on peity gain in some fashion would be really neat. Make you really think about a lot choices as you make them and when.
dislekcia wrote:The Monk's real attribute that gives him his flavor is the double regen. That's the core thing about him. He was given resistances and low damage to teach people to regen fight, for a lot of people Monk was the first class that strategy paid off with. Which is kinda why we don't want to kill the combination of those elements - there's a larger reason for the Monk to be the way he is... Dropping the magic resist was a neat way to both mirror what players understood about the Berserker and maintain the tutorial aspects of the class. All the tier 2's have a playstyle learning point to them;
Lujo wrote:If I may ask, I've never really figured out what the sorcerer's one was? Combining magic and melee? I always wanted to know, and the other guys had obvious penalties that compensated for big boons, he doesn't seem to...

Just read on hackaday about a guy that converted his cordless drill batterys to lithium ion.
I have several dewalt drills, a reciprocating saw, and circular saw. all of which are useless due to all the battery's I have being shot.
New batterys cost about $50 each, lithium ion packs are around 80 if i remember correctly.
I have at least 3 battery cases with no good cells left inside. I have found these cells: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... _Pack.html
which I can fit 2 of in each battery pack. totalling 22.2 V per pack. which is a little over the 18V that the factory batteries are specified at.
So for about $20 per battery pack I can convert to lithium-ion. I can then charge them with this: http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh ... oduct=7028
So here comes the problem. Undervoltage protection. these are RC packs. which means they have no undervoltage protection at all. you can drain these until they are $10 paperweights.
If I end up buying some and converting my drills then I need to find a way to prevent destroying these batteries. looking into purpose-built ICs as well as circuits of discrete components. there is plenty of leftover space in the packs to put a bunch of extra hardware.
Lithium Ion Drill battery retrofit?
Hardware related mods, hacks, questions and ideas.
