Can't play Spotify
If your Spotify isn't working as expected, or you're having issues with playback or the app itself, here are some troubleshooting steps to try:
- Restart the Spotify app.
- Log out and back in.
- Check the app is up-to-date.
- Close any other apps you're not using.
Reinstall the app.
Note: After reinstalling, you'll need to redownload any music you've made available for offline listening.
- Check the app isn't set to Offline mode.
- If possible, try a different internet connection. If this works, see 'Check the connection' below.
- Try playing on a different device, or with the web player. If this works, your inability to play on the first device could be an issue with the device itself:
- Check the device is supported and up to date.
- Your device should have at least 250MB available memory (you may want to remove any unnecessary files and apps).
- You may need to perform further troubleshooting with the device's manufacturer.
- If you're listening on desktop, check your firewall isn't blocking Spotify.
- Check @SpotifyStatus for any ongoing issues.
Tip: We recommend using Spotify with a WiFi connection, on a supported device that has at least 250MB available memory.
Didn't help?
If it's a connection issue, you may see one or more of the following:
- All tracks grayed out.
- Nothing happening when you press play, or try to use any features.
- Error messages saying Spotify is offline or No internet connection detected.
These steps should get you back up and running:
- Turn your WiFi off. Wait 30 seconds, then switch it back on. If that doesn't work, try restarting your router.
- If you're using a data connection, check you have enough data allowance (although we recommend using WiFi if possible).
- Make sure Spotify isn't in offline mode (in the app's Settings, under Playback).
- Check your firewall (if you use one) has Spotify set as an exception.
- Some shared or public networks (e.g. schools/work/office) restrict access to certain services. You can contact those responsible for managing the network for more information.
- If possible, try it with a different WiFi network. If it works with another connection, we recommend contacting the service provider of the original network for more information.
If the app appears to be playing, but you can't hear anything:
- Check the correct audio output is selected in your device's volume settings. You can refer to the manufacturer for help with volume settings.
- Check your audio hardware is working properly. You can test this by playing audio from somewhere other than Spotify.
- For computers, it's worth checking your soundcard driver software. You can refer to your device's manufacturer for help with this.
- Check the device you want to listen on isn't playing to an external device with Spotify Connect, Bluetooth, or any other wireless connection method.

Dr. Bruce Campbell directs the educational CFIDS and Fibromyalgia Self-Help website (www.cfidsselfhelp.org [1]), and online self-help group discussion courses [2] focused on practical ways to deal with the daily challenges of chronic illness – such as the following.
Mastering the Phone with CFS & FM
Do you feel you have to answer the phone even when you would prefer not to? Do you have trouble limiting the length of phone calls or feel guilty if you don't talk to people?
If you experience any of these things, you're not alone. We recently had a discussion of phone etiquette and strategies, and were surprised at how many people had conflicts about the use of their phone, or who experience phone use as something that intensifies their symptoms.
But the discussion also identified strategies people use to overcome these problems.
Screening Calls
The most commonly mentioned strategy for limiting time on the phone was to screen calls, using either an answering machine or Caller ID.
• Some people reported picking up the phone for calls from some people but not for others,
• Or answering during parts of the day but not at others,
• While other people said they allow all their calls to be taken on a machine or voice mail.
One person said, "I screen calls and only answer if I'm up to it," while another reported "I let the answering machine take all my calls, so I can call back at my own convenience." A third said, "I screen all my calls and rarely answer the home phone. All the school, business, political, and telemarketing calls go there, as well as the wrong numbers. Then I listen to the messages and heed any that have info I need, and delete the rest."
Some people reported responding to phone calls via email or text messages and also setting up appointments for phone calls.
One said, "If I'm not up for talking, I will send some people a quick text or email. That way, they know I'm just not up for a phone call and not ignoring or avoiding them."
Another reported, "Among family, I text a lot; it's not nearly as disruptive as a phone call. Long phone calls are usually planned in advance."
Setting Limits
People reported setting limits of various kinds around their use of the phone.
Subscribe to the World's Most Popular Newsletter (it's free!)
• Perhaps the most common was a limit on the length of phone calls (10 to 15 minutes was the most common range).
• Limits also included the number of calls in a day, time of day (for example no calls in the evening), and limits by person (talk to some people but not to others).
A number of people said that they had struggled with themselves about setting limits, feeling guilty if they didn't answer calls or if they put limits on the length or content of their calls.
A person who limits calls to 15 minutes and lost some relationships because of it, said, "I went through a grieving process as I implemented this. It was not easy to put myself and my own health first."
Another said, "I am learning to set firm boundaries so I can take care of myself. I've learned that I am easily affected by people dumping their problems on me. That may make them feel better but I am wired and feel worse. It is not worth it and so I am learning not to let others take my precious energy."
Educating Others & Communicating Limits
Deciding on limits is one part of the solution. The rest is educating others about the limits and enforcing limits.
Some people reported educating others by referring them to articles about CFS and FM, such as those in our Library [3]. "I've sent people links to this program's website explaining FM and CFS, and this has helped tremendously."
Others wrote about how they explained their limits to others, in some cases describing in detail both their limits and the cost of not honoring them. "I mentioned [to one friend] how important it is for me to stick to my schedule each day as far as my exercise times, rest periods, meal preps, etc. and how even small interruptions can have negative outcomes."
Another strategy is to tell people about limits at the start of a call or even before the call begins.
One person wrote, "I usually tell people in advance how long I can talk. I might say something like 'I'm struggling today, so I'll only be able to talk for 20 minutes.'"
For many people, communicating limits is the biggest challenge. With many years of being a listener and focusing on the needs of others, they have trouble acting in their own best interest, but the rewards are real. As one said, "It's hard to set limits with others, but when you do, it's empowering."
Posture, Movement & Comfort
A final set of strategies for phone use dealt with posture, movement and physical comfort.
A number of people mentioned using a headset or speakerphone. One person said, "When I was first ill, I had extreme, unmedicated pain, and holding a phone to my ear became sheer agony. I bought a headphone to attach to my home phone and that made a huge difference."
Another said, "I can do better on the phone if I can get up and move around." And a third reported, "I make myself comfortable by lying down on the bed or couch, propped up by pillows, and I make sure to change positions frequently."

About 20,000 Snap Fitness members took part earlier this year in the Chanhassen, MN-based company's $10,000 Lose Weight, Feel Great Challenge.
The participants lost a combined 57,395 pounds in a two-month period, surpassing last year's challenge by almost 15,000 pounds. Last year's challenge attracted almost 12,000 members.
Sonja Lewis, this year's first-place winner, lost 33 percent of her body weight and took home $5,000. The rest of the $5,000 was divided among the other nine winners. This year's challenge included participation from 827 Snap Fitness clubs nationwide.
"In our industry as a whole, you're always trying to find ways to inspire members to take their exercise experience to the next level or their goals to the next level," Snap Fitness CEO Peter Taunton tells Club Industry. "We've always found that the best way to do that is fitness challenges."
Participants in the Snap Fitness challenge could track their progress and compare it to other participants in their club, city and nationwide, Taunton says.
"The life-changing experience that one of these fitness challenges has—not only for the winner but for so many of these people—they realize how much better they feel," Taunton says. "By eating cleaner and being a little more cognizant of what they put in their mouth, they suddenly have more energy, they feel better about themselves. There are a lot of ancillary benefits that come with this."
Taunton says he hopes future weight-loss challenges can attract national corporate partnerships.
"Any chain of any size, if you're not doing fitness challenges for your members, you're just not in the game," Taunton says.

We are just days away from the Ashtanga Yoga Confluence, and next up in our reintroduction lineup is Nancy Gilgoff. (This is the first of two we had.) This one is a little different. We asked friend Pranidhi Varshney a few questions after she spent a week at Nancy's House of Zen and Yoga studying with Nancy and Manju Jois.
Since we posted this in late November, I believe Pranidhi has started teaching yoga. And she's singing kirtan and lots of other things that you can learn at her website: pranidhivarshney.com.
1. First off, how did Nancy's shala compare to others you have been to?
There's some serious shakti in the House of Yoga and Zen. The place has been around for many years and some of our most treasured ashtangis have practiced and taught there. There are pictures on the walls of Guruji, Manju, Nancy, and others in action, doing what we're all so grateful for- passing this practice on. One of the fellow trainees this time around was jokingly saying that she doesn't think the carpets have ever been changed! I wouldn't be at all surprised if that were true, and I'm glad for it. There's something raw, grounded, powerful, and spiritual about practicing where so many have practiced before.
2. How would you describe Nancy and Manju's teaching styles? Are there other teachers you've studied with that you can compare them to?
Well, Manju was one of my first Ashtanga teachers and I've been totally spoiled because of that. The bar was set high for me from the beginning. He's easy-going, funny, non-dogmatic about the practice, and he has magic hands. The energy that passes through his hands while he adjusts is a healing warmth. And he's strong! I overheard Nancy saying that in the old days, Manju was often able to take her into postures that she wasn't able to get into on her own. Nancy also has a great touch and is a really humble, down-to-earth person. One can tell she has a deep knowledge of the practice and she cares about passing it on correctly, but there was no sense of "my way is the right way," which I think sometimes there is with ashtanga teachers. Actually, that was one of the best things about the whole week. Both Nancy and Manju are from the old school. No dogma, no militaristic rules, just practice- taught the way it was taught by Guruji back in the day. There's something authentic and special about that.
3. What was a highlight of the week on Maui?
All the stories! Having both Manju and Nancy there was such a treat. David Williams also joined us for Manju's birthday celebration and for a couple of morning mysore practices. Talk about a confluence of energy. We heard stories about how pranayama saved Manju's life, how he tried to escape doing baddha konasana in his youth, how Ramesh, Manju's brother, is responsible for everyone using a spray bottle for garbha pidasana, and many more. It was also really cool to hear Nancy ask Manju about alignment points for different postures and listen in on them talking about how things have changed over the years. It was a great reminder that one way is not the only way. If these senior teachers are still open and humble enough to learn from each other, we need to make the effort to remain that way as well. Also, for me personally, it was a delight to meet and spend time with the newest teacher-in-training, Sathu, Manju's daughter. She has ashtanga in her blood and she's already quite a good adjuster, as many people in the training can attest to.
4. Do you feel like anything about your practice in particular evolved or changed? How so?
Absolutely. Every time I practice with Manju, I feel like my heart and body are blasted open, and time takes on a different quality. Manju talked this time about flow- how teachers cannot force students into postures. Rather, that they must enable them to tap into the flow. The flow of the breath, the practice, the energy. My practice flows when I'm with Manju and for that I'm forever grateful. And practicing in Maui is a dream in and of itself. The climate is so good for the body and spirit. I'd recommend a trip to the House of Yoga and Zen for any ashtangi.
5. For people who might be encountering Nancy for the first time at the Confluence in March, how would you tell them to get the most from here in the relatively short time?
I'd say listen. Nancy seems to me to have a quiet power. I was really struck by her humility. If there's one thing people should pay attention to, I'd say it'd be that. It's so easy for us in LA, in America, in the ashtanga world in general, to feel somewhat inflated by our practice. Nancy reminded me that we're all just people, using the gift of yoga as a tool to make our lives better. I'd also say be grateful. What a privilege to be able to practice and study with someone so close to the source. For us female ashtangis especially, Nancy's an inspiration.
Everyone get that? "Listen." And in just a few days.

Many women around the world are now as educated and healthy as men. But when it comes to politics and the labor market, they are still fighting to close the gender gap. The World Economic Forum provides ample evidence of that disparity – and many other differences between women and men across the globe – in the 2010 Global Gender Gap Report released today.
The report shows that while women have come a long way in education and health equity, there is still a significant lag in economic and political participation, says Ricardo Hausmann, one of the authors of the report and the director of the Center for International Development at Harvard University.
"For the majority of the countries, women now have more education than men" and health is no longer a major issue for most, says Mr. Hausmann, who created the index. "What becomes more of an issue is economic participation and political participation."
The report's index measures the gender gap by evaluating women's access to resources relative to the resources available to the entire country's population, which prevents a country's level of development from having too much influence on the rankings. Countries are evaluated on four criteria: economic participation and opportunity, political empowerment, education, and health.
Scandinavians on top
Scandinavian countries, well-known for their extensive social welfare systems and family-friendly economic policies, took five of the top 10 spots in the list, with Iceland leading the way at No. 1.
According to the report, the Scandinavian countries scored particularly well on economic opportunity because of high labor participation rates for women, low salary gaps between men and women, and ample opportunities for women to hold leadership positions.
A key cause of that is probably the high representation of women in politics and senior management positions, allowing women to advocate for the policies that allow them to achieve equity with men, Hausmann says.
RELATED: The 2010 Global Gender Gap Index's Top 10 countries for gender equity
"The social policies in those countries have made it easier for women to incorporate motherhood and marriage with work," Hausmann says. The report cites policies such as mandatory paternal leave, paternal leave benefits, tax incentives, and federal programs to assist women's reentry to the work force. Paternal leave makes men as much of an economic liability as women for companies that have to absorb the costs of leave.
US breaks into the top 20
The United States broke into the top 20 this year for the first time, up from No. 31 last year. The report cites the US's strong record in education equality, particularly literacy and enrollment numbers, as well as a No. 6 ranking worldwide in economic opportunity. Political empowerment is a US weakness in the index and the lack of female representation in Congress and state government is an obstacle to implementing policy that allows women more opportunity in the workforce, Hausmann says.
While the US climbed, France fell precipitously – from No. 18 last year to No. 46 this year. The report attributes this mostly to poor performance in political empowerment because the proportion of women holding ministerial positions has declined both absolutely and relative to the number of ministers, which has increased in recent years. France also ranks very low on salary equity – No. 127 out of 134.
RELATED: International women's day: Which nation has smallest pay gap for women?
Although North America does not have any countries in the top 10, it was the strongest overall region, followed in order by Europe and Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia and the Pacific, Sub-Saharan Africa, and the Middle East and North Africa. Yemen is the lowest-performing country on the index (No. 134), with only 46 percent of its gender gap closed. Pakistan and Chad came in just above it, at 132 and 133.
Numbers in the Middle East are somewhat skewed by the fact that while women often enroll in universities at the same rate as men, they are mostly prevented from entering the workforce, Hausmann says.
Education, health gaps closing
Eighty-six percent of the countries on the index since it began in 2006 (there were 114 countries in the first edition and there are 134 this year) have improved their performance on closing the gender gap. An average of 96 percent of the health gap has been closed, as well as 93 percent of the education gap, 59 percent of the economic opportunity gap, and 18 percent of the political empowerment gap.
But no country has achieved gender equality yet, and that's unlikely to happen anytime soon, Hausmann says.
Instead, people should watch what happens in the next couple decades, as women become the more educated gender in much of the world – something that has already happened in many countries – and begin to enter the workforce and politics. A dramatic restructuring of marriage, motherhood, and family roles could be on the horizon, especially in Latin America where the process has already started, Hausmann says.
"There is a major transformation we are about to see.... The check is in the mail."

Starting Out On Top
We're baaaaaaaaaaaaaack! Did ya miss us? Of course you did!!!
It's all good, dear readers, because it's a NEW year with NEW goals and NEW impossibilities just WAITING to be made possible. So shake off that nasty hangover, nevermind that public health clinic visit you're gonna have to make after who you took home last night and rejoice from atop the world!
Of course, if you're a Cardinals fan like me, you can also rejoice from the top of the baseball world (that's the only one that matters by the way) knowing that you can walk around with your chest sticking out for at least another 10 months or so. During our short break, I realized that finding a quick rebound lover would help me forget the unequivocal pain brought on by the loss of one Albert Pujols. Enter: CARLOS BELTRAN.
From Cardinal killer to Met scapegoat to hot stove spice, Mr. Beltran slips inside an already potent lineup for the repeat hunting 2012 squad. In fact, by getting Waino back and projecting a one through five order of Furcal, Beltran, Berkman, Holliday and Freese, I can't help but git jiggy with the disco lights pulsating in my bathroom (don't ask).
Albert who?
And as if that wasn't enough excitement to start the new year, how about the fact that my fellow US Americans in Iowa seem to be ready for real change to our corporate-petting-taxpayer-blood-sucking government!?!? FINALLY, Dr. Paul is getting some love from voters, which has forced the left-leaning media to start several Bachmann-esque smear campaigns. This is what happens when the financially elite (who run the political machine) get worried about seeing their empire crumble.
But don't worry. Dr. Paul will bring them down. Enough with the wars. Enough with corporate greed. Enough with buying things we can't afford and wasting BILLIONS on pointless endeavors like the war on drugs. It's time to start over and that means no more empty Obama promises from the left and no more delusion-pandering from the right.
Ahh yes. Pondering such possibilities make me feel just like I did watching D. Freese gork one over Nellie Cruz's head.
This is gonna be one helluva year.
Hate me 'cuz it's the thing to do, just don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.

Doom3 Linux and Windows Battlegroundsby Kristopher Kubicki on October 13, 2004 12:50 AM EST

Doom3 High Resolution AveragesBelow, you can see how our cards performed under higher resolution on both Windows and Linux. Texture Sharpening was disabled in all tests. We didn't even test the 5600XT here; it was a waste of time on the 1024x768 resolution, and it is an even larger waste of time here.
Notes From the LabAgain, Linux could not keep up to Windows here. The Linux hardware can keep up slightly, but it seems the debate was over before it began.

Roots - Tuesday, February 15, 2005 - linkI predict that for a "normal" WinXP user, the spyware/adware/viruses will bog the performance down enough to make Linux look like the undisputed king of modern gaming. :D Reply
lapierrem - Monday, December 13, 2004 - linkJust wondering why you are doing this from X at all?
I know pretty much any app that can be run from command line takes a bit of a hit run on X.
I have no idea and maybe i'm missing something but is it not possible to run from the command line, or is it a driver issue?
SuSE is not an dist I would ever use, I had it installed but I didn't really like it.
I wouldn't mind seeing this done - best case linux scenario vs. best case windows
on the same hardware. Reply
aaime - Monday, October 25, 2004 - linkIs there any change to see a 2D performance comparison? Yes, you're read properly: 2D.
I ask about it because 2D acceleration of some propietary drivers is ridicolously low, and people should know about it _before_ buying a graphics card.
For an example of such a comparison, see:

mikebabcock - Tuesday, October 19, 2004 - linkFrom a different angle than some people suggested, it would be very helpful if you'd use the *same scale* on all graphs on a page. That way we can compare the FPS numbers between tests, instead of having to compute them mentally.
One graph ends at 80fps, one at 150fps ... the bars are at the same points, how do you notice easily that one test is so much faster than another?
This is a standard graphing concept -- use the same scale for all charts for comparisons. Reply
yokem55 - Tuesday, October 19, 2004 - linkAnother thing effecting this review is that Doom3 provides its own libstdc++.so and libgcc.so libs, which when replaced with symlinks against the system's own built in libs results in a decent performance boost. This is probably a bit more noticable on a distro like Gentoo which has optimized these libs more specifically to the architecture provided. Also, the kernel being used can have a big impact. The vanilla 2.6 kernel has a rather (IMHO) ugly scheduler that allows programs like Doom3 to get run over a bit more than it should. With the ck patchset, this is improved a good amount. As for how well gcc has optimized the doom3 code, an interesting comparison would be to see the performance of the windows version of doom3 running under wine. Granted, the overhead of wine might affect some things, but you would be able to figure out better where exactly the performance losses are coming into play. Reply
nyda - Tuesday, October 19, 2004 - linkYou compared Windows vs Linux performance on a 6800 with the 5950 driver for Linux (only)?
As far as I'm concerned, that makes this benchmark pretty much useless. The latest driver, as of release of this article supports the 6800 perfectly fine here. Since it doesn't seem to be the case on your system, did you ever consider that there might be other issues with the system?
Furthermore the whole point is pretty much moot seeing this test was performed on a "kernel 2.6.8-14-default". A Linux System is NOT to be used with a default kernel. You can use those to boot from a liveCD but thats about it. They are supposed to give you something to start with, not something to live with. Even Suse ships with automated tools to generate a kernel for your system.
If you are serious about comparing Linux vs Windows, use a distribution or system that supports your hardware 100% and don't stick with a non-optimized kernel.
If you were really serious, you would also talk about the various possible optimizations on an open source system (compiling code for your specific system *will* make it *a lot* faster), mention high performance distributions like Gentoo and use an optimized glibc2 which already gives you another 9-11% performance over the one provided with doom3 (which seems to be compiled without any optimization flags for whatever reason).
You left a lot of Linux potential uncovered and wonder why it turns out to be slower. Hopefully the next article will be more representative. Sadly, this one is just pretty pictures without any meaning. :/
My own results are similar to poster #18 's results: On an AMD64 3200+, FX6800, Gentoo (-O3 -march=athlon-xp) it's 25% faster than on WinXP. About 30-35% after replacing the provived crappy glibc with a symlink to the one my Gentoo system normally uses. Reply
nongamer1 - Tuesday, October 19, 2004 - linkI have to second #28.
This review may have been written by someone who spent decades in Windows, applied all the latest tweaks and tuning tools to it, yet on the Linux side, things probably don't look that bright yet.
Unfortunately the article doesn't mention whether it was the 32bit or 64bit SuSE distro that it tested.
64bit has been reported to be able to make a difference of up to 30% or 40% CPU performance wise *sometimes*, so in exchange for much worse Linux graphics driver optimization, why not bring the much worse 64bit CPU "optimization" of Windows into the game? ;-)
(64bit Linux drivers for Nvidia have been available for a few weeks/months, right?)
As has been said by #28, there are also enormous speed differences between various distros, e.g. Yoper or Gentoo should be blindingly fast compared to a rather slow "standard" Red Hat, and I'd guess that SuSE isn't totally on the fast side either.
I'd be willing to bet that with the fastest Linux distro and the fastest currently available kernel (e.g. a Con Kolivas kernel), Linux could actually beat Windows hands down, especially with a rather "slight" 25% performance difference as it stands now, despite less optimized graphics drivers...
And then let them enable SSE2 in the Linux binary and use gcc 3.4.x for compilation and let them have a well-optimized Nvidia driver etc., and the speed advantage should be very obvious.
Main point: a bog-standard off-the-shelf distro isn't necessarily what you'd want to use for very fast gaming.
(but OTOH you perhaps didn't tune Windows in a special way for this review either, so the comparison of currently available "standard" components should have been fair after all, I guess...) Reply
solidliq - Monday, October 18, 2004 - linkPerhaps you guys should learn a little more about linux before you continue with these comparisons. Don't get me wrong, I think it's _great_ that you're doing linux comparisons, but a little more knowledge would be helpful.
First, you're using the 2.6.8 kernel for this test, which is known to be buggy. The major problem: the scheduler. How does this affect game and graphics performance? Greatly. This is why I'm using the 2.6.7 kernel, compiled from source from www.kernel.org.
Secondly, since the port has been under development for a while, it was probably done with a 2.4.x series kernel. That series of kernel would have been my first choice for testing.
Third, why have a full desktop environment loaded up to play a fullscreen game (KDE)? You _want_ overhead introduced into the testing?
Fourth, you always should test multiple distros. As is, this is _not_ a Windows versus Linux comparison. It is a SUSE versus Windows comparison. At a minimum, try SUSE, Mandrake, Fedora, Gentoo, and possibly Slackware (my distro of choice). Each one has its own quirks. Slackware is truly linux, because the vendor does not modify any of the source. However, it is much more difficult to configure correctly. Gentoo is a great distrobution because it is designed for being compiled specifically for the machine it is installed on. Using the straight source packages rather than vendor modified packages also goes a long way towards creating a fair test.
Finally, learn to do the configuration from a shell, rather than from a gui. This is the way it is done by a vast majority of the linux community. This will allow you to see exactly what's going on, rather than scratching your heads over questions such as, "We're not sure why the reboot was required...". This is linux, not windows. If you know what you're doing, you should never have to scratch your heads over these types of questions. If you did it from a shell, a reboot should not have been necessary. Most likely, the reboot was required because you use a graphical login, and the X Server had to be restarted, _not_ the whole operating system.
Otherwise, thanks for finally taking linux seriously. Just please to the comparisons right. As I'm sure it took some time to learn the ins and outs of windows, it will also take some time to learn the ins and outs of linux, as it is a very different operating system. Hiring a linux guru would give you a good head start. Reply

School bus carrying special-needs students rolls over
Police seek truck that caused Indy crash
A school bus carrying special-needs students rolled over Thursday on a highway near Indianapolis, injuring a dozen people including five children, state police said.
Indiana State Police spokesman Rich Myers said a semi was changing lanes on Interstate 65 near Zionsville about 2 p.m. Thursday when it cut in front of the bus. The bus driver tried to avoid a collision and lost control, and the bus went into the median and rolled over.
Five children and seven adults were hurt, but none of the injuries were life-threatening, Myers said. Several were hospitalized, and their conditions weren't immediately known.
The truck that caused the crash did not stop, he said. The truck was described as either a white box truck or a white semitrailer, he said.
The vague description of the truck made locating it difficult, Myers said.
Lafayette school Superintendent Les Huddle said the bus was returning to Lafayette from Indianapolis.

Well this is a big "oops."
Nearly $21,000 in casino money is missing after it fell from the roof of an armored truck in New Jersey.
The truck picked up the money from the soon-to-be-closed Revel casino, according to The Press of Atlantic City.
Surveillance video showed the bag of cash on top of the truck's roof as it left the casino. It was still there when the truck left the Resorts Casino Hotel nearby.
It's not clear where the bag went missing.
A spokesman for GardaWorld armored car services told The Associated Press it is investigating and cooperating with authorities.

WASHINGTON - In a rare airlift, the Defense Department is flying 17 aircraft from California to New York loaded with power generation equipment and crews to help restore electricity to the millions of homes and businesses devastated by Superstorm Sandy.
The Pentagon says the 630 tons of equipment is being provided by Southern California power companies, including Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas and Electric Co.
The equipment includes 10 double bucket trucks, nearly 20 pick-up trucks, and a number of other trucks and equipment, as well as a mobile command center. It was to arrive Thursday at the Air National Guard base at Stewart International Airport north of New York City.
The massive transport operation was conceived Tuesday afternoon during a teleconference call among utility executives, President Barack Obama, Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Craig Fugate and Energy Secretary Steven Chu.
According to the White House, West Coast utility executives said they had equipment ready to travel overland to storm-stricken areas. Obama, who had entered the call unannounced from the White House Situation Room, said the utilities should inform Fugate of their highway routes to ensure the quickest passage and asked how the transfer of equipment could be accelerated.
Fugate then indicated he would consult with the Pentagon about the possibility of using military transport planes. At that point Obama, instructed Fugate to make that happen immediately.
The White House provided details of the call Thursday showcasing the role of the president and the federal government in the disaster response.
The Air Force said it was deploying 17 cargo planes to the airlift mission, including C-5s and C-17s. Aircraft and crews from 12 active duty, Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve bases were assembling at March Air Reserve Base in California to pick up the equipment. White House officials said such a mission is rare but not unprecedented; military planes have delivered equipment in the past to islands that have been hard hit by weather.
Utilities closer to New York, New Jersey and Connecticut already have been sending crews and equipment to troubled areas.
Pentagon officials also said three warships were moving up the East Coast and would be ready to provide assistance if needed.

4BETTER OR WORSE- The week in review
Biggest development in the ongoing water war: City Council votes 3-2 January 19 in favor of a 30-foot dam at Ragged Mountain Reservoir, a vote that puts councilors David Brown, Satyendra Huja, and Kristin Szakos on the same side of the 50-year water plan as the county's supervisors, and leaves dredging advocates Mayor Dave Norris and Holly Edwards outnumbered.
Least surprising announcement: Former governor George Allen officially says he'll be seeking his old job in the U.S. Senate, the one now held by Senator Jim Webb, who unseated Allen in the 2006 race after Allen's infamously used the possible ethnic slur "macaca" to describe a Webb volunteer. Webb has not said whether he'll run again.
Saddest fatality: David Shipp Jr., 21, dies January 23 when his vehicle goes off Markwood Road and he and his passenger are ejected. Shipp is the son of Albemarle Clerk of Court Debra Shipp. Darrell Harris was riding with Shipp and taken to UVA Medical Center with severe but non-life-threatening injuries.
Worst loss for UVA's School of Architecture: Retired dean Harry Porter, 74, dies January 19 in New Bern, North Carolina. Porter was first chairman of the school's department of landscape architecture and first University Architect.
Worst fabrication: The guy who claimed his Jetta had been stolen at gunpoint January 15 is arrested for filing a false police report January 18. Braden C. Macpherson, 19, has been identified as the driver of the allegedly swiped car, which was found crashed on Carters Mountain Trail
Best/worst press for Gaylon Beights: The Old Trail developer sets record sales– 70– in 2010 in the Crozet subdivision, according to a January 22 Brian Wheeler article in the Daily Progress. The next day's paper has a Wheeler story about Redfields subdivision, also developed by Beights. Residents say the 58 acres Beights is trying to rezone to add 138 homes was touted as nature trails and open space in some of the early marketing materials, so they feel duped.
Oddest assault weapon: A lubricant aerosol spray is used in a robbery attempt around 1pm January 19 between UVA's Women's Center and the Old Medical School. The suspect attempted to spray and take a bag from the victim, who resisted and was not injured.

Most missing teens II: Seventeen-year-old Buffalo Gap High senior Jazmine Rae Stevens is reported missing January 22 and believed to be with her boyfriend, Lewis Deke Cash, 22, who the Augusta Sheriff's office says could be armed and dangerous. According to the News Leader, Stevens turns up at her house the morning of January 24, and Cash is arrested without incident–- or weapons–- in a traffic stop that same morning on an unrelated assault and battery on a family member charge.
Biggest wedding crasher: Noise from various nuptials at Keswick Winery annoys neighbors, including Sissy Spacek, who tells the Albemarle Planning Commission January 18 she's a big supporter of Virginia wine, but moved 25 miles outside of Charlottesville to hear the birds and frogs and geese and not amplified music, Charlottesville Tomorrow reports.

Pimping charges kept against Dominique Strauss-Kahn
PARIS French judges decided Wednesday not to drop pimping charges against former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn, his lawyers said. They quickly vowed to appeal.
The case is the last remaining legal headache involving alleged sex-related crimes for Strauss-Kahn. The 63-year-old one-time Socialist presidential hopeful resigned from his IMF job in May last year and saw his international reputation collapse after a hotel maid accused of him of trying to rape her. A settlement was reached in that U.S. case last week.
In a statement after a court in the northern city of Douai retained the preliminary charges, Strauss-Kahn lawyer Henri Leclerc lashed out at investigating judges in the case. He claimed the charges against Strauss-Kahn were not specified, that some evidence was hidden from the defense team, facts were twisted and definitions of the legal term "pimping" were created with no basis in law.
- Settlement reached in Strauss-Kahn, NYC hotel maid case
- Prosecutor launches new Dominique Strauss-Kahn rape probe">
- Dominique Strauss-Kahn sues New York maid for $1 million in damages
Outside the Douai courthouse, Frederique Baulieu, another defense lawyer, told reporters, "We are certain that Dominique Strauss-Kahn will be cleansed of all charges against him."
Strauss-Kahn was hit in March with preliminary charges of "aggravated procurement in an organized gang" in an investigation into a hotel prostitution ring in nearby Lille that was said to involve prominent city figures and police.
The case against Strauss-Kahn hinges on whether he knew he was partying with prostitutes, and whose money was used to pay them. Strauss-Kahn's lawyers have said he attended "libertine" gatherings, but didn't know some women present were paid.

>The increased pressures encountered while diving may cause a hollow orbital implant to collapse, resulting in cosmetic problems and a need for further surgery to replace the damaged implant.
>Many ocular plastic surgeons are now using implants made of hydroxyapatite, a porous material which is not a contraindication for diving.
>In general, it's best to wait until the underlying acute condition has resolved and there are no distracting or disabling ocular symptoms to contend with before returning to diving.
>Deciding on your own visual acuity is primarily a judgment call, with few relevant scientific studies available to help resolve the issue. The approach taken in the article was to use statutory visual standards established for another hazardous activity - driving a car, for example - whose visual requirements are more demanding than diving. The recommendation made was that if you see well enough to qualify for a driver's license and operate a motor vehicle safely, then you should be able to see well enough to dive safely.
>If a prospective diver has visual acuity which is poor enough to preclude him or her from being allowed to drive, then the fitness to dive decision needs to be individualized with the assistance of an eye physician and dive instructor.

Traditional Italian suits have just the jack, knight and king:
German suits usually have two jacks, the under and the over, and the king (with a horse or not):
And of course, the best known French suits have a king, a queen and a jack:
Those systems have obviously influenced each other, but in what way exactly? From the superficial knowledge I have, I think it was like this:
* The military system with king, knight and jack is the most original one, rather directly taken from Mamluk predecessors with king, deputy king and 2nd deputy.
* The same is the case for the German suits (I don't know to what degree they are descendants of the Italian suits, or more directly of Mameluk suits).
* To better represent the court, in later games including tarot a queen was added.
* The modern French suits developed to a stricter representation of the court, reducing the military order, and thus removing the knight.
* Today, there are many games played both with French suits and either German or Italian suits. In those games, the "French" queen is identified with the "Italian" knight or the German over for obvious reasons, even though this is historically incorrect and strange enough in the "marriage" group of card games.
What do the experts say?

Did you know that many parents of kids with special needs feel lonely?
Because of their children's needs, some special needs parents feel isolated. That birthday party everyone is invited to? Maybe the child has significant sensory processing issues and cannot handle the noise or large crowds. That Bible study at church that takes place during the children's program? The special needs mom needs to stay with her child because there isn't a trained volunteer to help with her child's needs. That playdate at the park where the moms chatter while the kids play? Not gonna' happen! Most likely the child needs help to climb on the special equipment, and there goes the adult interaction.
Parenting a child with special needs can be exhausting. Sometimes, it is easier to stay home. The thing is, special needs parents need friends. They need someone to talk to and someone to laugh with. God created us to be in relationships, we are not meant to do life alone.
What can you do to reach out to a special needs parent?
First, get to know her family and her child with special needs. Can you babysit for an hour or two so mom and dad can go out on a date? Maybe a late-night-date after the kids go to bed?
Initiate the relationship. You can ask, "I would love to get together with you, is there a time or day that works for you?"
Plan playdates around the abilities of the kids with special needs. Maybe a playdate at a park won't work, but the special needs parent might have some suggestions for fun activities that work for her family.
Call. Just pick up the phone and call. It is amazing how something so simple makes such a big difference. Let your friend know that you are available to talk. And you don't have to talk about special needs! Just chat about the weather, about the conversation you had with your brother, or about the embarrassing situation you had at the store. Just be a friend and reach out.
Ellen Stumbo is a writer and speaker. She is the mother of three daughters: Ellie; Nichole, who has Down syndrome; and Nina, who was adopted and also has special needs. She is wife to Andy, a pastor.

Our stay at this b&b was beyond spectacular. The room (King Suite #2) was beautiful and the bed was by far the most comfortable bed we have ever slept on. It felt like home here. We could have sat on the balcony all weekend. The service was spectacular. The breakfast was delicious. We could not be more happier choosing this inn for our getaway. We would definitely recommend this inn! In fact, we may come again.
5 sur juin 04, 2014
We chose the Blue Heron from its easy to use website. My husband and I let the innkeepers do the heavy lifting for our 10th anniversary and we were very pleased with the property and the arrangements they made for dinner/horse-drawn carriage ride. We can't wait to visit again.

From the luxurious bedding to the million-dollar yacht harbor view, I was sold on the Blue Heron Inn. Divine breakfasts were the icing on the cake. The innkeepers were super-friendly and happy to spend as much time as I needed talking about the area.

I didn't really know what to expect when my husband and I arrived - their site has so few photos. "Wow" was the first thing that came out of my mouth the moment I entered the house. Our room (#2) was jaw dropping. It was better than I could've imagined. They did an excellent job accommodating my vegan diet. My husband wasn't a huge fan of what they made him for breakfast. So, to make sure he was well fed, they asked him what he would like instead - and made it. Fantastic service! We came to the B&B for relaxation - and relax, we did.

I would highly recommend this bed and breadfast. Everthing was outstanding, from the rooms to the food. Amanda prepared the food and I must say that it was incredible. The time that she has spent at a culinary school is very obvious. My wife and I chose to spend the weekend here and I was a wonderful decision. In fact, the views of the bay are so romantic that I decided to propose to my wife while we were sitting on the deck and drinking wine. Our stay here was definitely money well spent and we very much look forward to returning.

We stayed for 3 nights in June 2009 and had a wonderful time. We were in a 3rd floor bedroom. We enjoyed the view of the river from one dormer window and view of the harbor from the other. The rooms were very clean. Dining is at individual tables and the food was wonderful. Sitting on the porch was a very pleasant experience. There was a large couch and TV in the main room. We were too busy to sit and enjoy that. It is an easy walk from the B&B to anywhere on Solomons. The location is very quiet. The innkeepers were very helpful, accommodating and enjoyable.

I was just there....first time in a BnB, if you are interested in just relaxing.. To enjoy the nearby amnenties.....with less hustle and bustle...this is the place to be.... The Inn Keepers are wonderful.....available at every whim..... I am sooo looking forward to returning !!!! I am looking so forward to returning.....

I attended a retreat at the Blue Heron and I can say it absolutely took my breath away! The food was amazing, the house is beautiful and clean, and the scenery is like nothing I've seen before. I would HIGHLY recommend staying here!

Amanda and Chris are outstanding inn-keepers. The breakfasts were to die for. Amanda has been trained at the Culinary Institute of New York and Cordon Bleu in Paris. They are wonderfully accommodating. A must visit

Good afternoon! I am blogging right now from school because we still don't have interwebz in our new house. I took my Calculus final on Friday, which went really well! Afterwards, I met up with a new friend and went rock climbing for the first time. It was the perfect de-stressor and a surprisingly good workout! Two hours flew by. I didn't feel exhausted until I tried to climb up the inverted wall. It is tilted towards you so it is much harder than a vertical wall, or a wall that is tilted away. My arms literally gave out as I struggled to cling to the little rocks. And I had only made it up a few feet… You really have to trust whoever you are attached to! I was mildly hesitant to let go of the wall off at 30 or 40 feet high, but I did and I alive to blog about it. Afterwards, I went home and packed for the big move. Saturday morning, Chelsea, her parents, Kristi, and I spent all day packing up and moving to our new house. It is just down the street, but that doesn't make it any less work! We cleaned the crap out of our old house. I seriously spent three hours on just my bathroom. I hadn't cleaned it the entire year. At least, not really. I was down on my hands and knees scrubbing the grout and I practically had to sandblast the soap scum off my shower. Sorry. I now understand why some housewives get off to hardcore cleaning products. Works in 60 seconds never sounded so good.
All the hard work paid off though, and Zabace is forking over the entire deposit! Pretty sure we deserve a medal of some sort. If you are a hardcore reader, you may remember that I painted my wall 6 months ago a royal blue. Since that is technically really not okay, I scrambled to paint it back to cream earlier in the week. During the final walk through, the landlord walked into my room and got a puzzled look on her face. She said "Oh…. I thought this wall was blue. I apologize. You must have thought I was crazy." I guess she had heard from a repairman or gardener that I had painted my wall blue and was planning on nailing me for it. Not a trace of evidence remained, suckaz!
Since then, I have celebrated, organized my room, started Genetics, and made dinner with my dear friend Dina. She finally came home from Palestine after being gone for over a month. We had a precious date that included dinner, wine, and a trip to my favorite ice cream shop. Dinner was an Italian stir fry, which I have never done before. We sautéed zucchini, onions, snap peas, and chicken with olive oil, garlic, fresh basil, salt and pepper and added fresh mozzarella balls to the mix at the end so it was just melted. On the side we had basil-tomato-marinated mozzarella salad, Chilean red wine, and a slice of her mothers jam cake!
Okay. Down to the recipe that got me through one hell of a weekend. IT IS THE BEST EGG SALAD I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. I have eaten this sandwich for 2 of my 3 meals 2 days in a row and then some. It is that good. Don't question the ingredients, just make it and love it.
Lemon Basil & Honey Egg Salad
Recipe: Makes 2 servings
6 hard-boiled eggs (using 2 or 3 of the 6 yolks)
2 tbsp mayo
fresh basil, shredded
1 tbsp honey
squeeze of fresh lemon juice
dash cinnamon
dash dill
dash salt
whole wheat bread
tomato, sliced
Directions –
To prepare the eggs: Place eggs in a medium pot and cover with 1 inch (above) of cold water. Bring to boil on the stove. Once at a solid boil, remove from heat and cover. Let sit for 12 minutes. Immediately transfer eggs to bowl of ice water and let cool for at least 10 minutes. Peel.
Combine eggs with basil, honey, lemon, mayo, dill, and cinnamon (the two spice are optional but add if you have them!). Toast whole grain bread and top with tomato slices and half of the egg salad. Save leftovers in the fridge!

How To Destroy Angels
From NinWiki
How To Destroy Angels (stylised as "How to destroy angels_") is a musical project announced in April 2010, when they released a series of teaser videos. The band is named after How To Destroy Angels, a song, and first release, by Coil. The first single, "A Drowning" was released on May 4th 2010 via Pitchfork Media. There is currently a Q&A on their Facebook page.
The band was originally signed with The Null Corporation, but in 2012 signed to Columbia Records.
In June 2010, Trent Reznor indicated a hopeful Q1 2011 release for a full length album in an answer to a Tumblr question. On July 29, 2010, Trent Reznor posted on his Twitter account that new HTDA music was in progress. On November 27, 2010, HTDA posted on Facebook: "We are fully immersed in working on new material right now. Lots coming in 2011!".
On February 26, 2011, Trent Reznor revealed that the first full-length album had been finished and would be released in early Fall 2011. He also revealed that the album would be free, with the options of higher-quality sound files for money and a physical release. After signing to a major label the following year, the free album concept was no longer viable and the release was also pushed back to 2013.
The band announced via twitter on 30th November 2011 that they would be putting out a cover of Bryan Ferry's "Is Your Love Strong Enough?" on The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Soundtrack.
On September 21st 2012, after several months of hinting, Trent Reznor finally announced that the band's second EP, An Omen EP, would be released on November 13th. He also announced that the band was now signed with Columbia Records and would be releasing their full length album, Welcome Oblivion, in early 2013.
Band members
The band's live debut is to be at Coachella 2013.
