Police responded to a deadly shooting in southwest Fresno Monday night. Investigators say a private security guard shot and killed a man.
It happened just after 8pm on east Annandale Ave. in front of a business named Ritchie Trucking.
Witnesses tell CBS47 that a man asked the security guard on duty if he could use his cell phone. The guard allowed him to do so and then the man reportedly threw the phone down to the ground, which caused the two men to get into a physical fight. It led to the guard shooting the man in the chest and he ended up dying on the street.
From the police's perspective, confrontations like this are not very common.
"Not that they don't occur, but something to this extent we don't hear too much about. Maybe loss prevention where they maybe get into a tussle with people in that arena, but something like this we very seldom get calls of that," said Lt. Phil Cooley of the Fresno Police Dept.
The security guard works for Falcon Private Security out of Fresno. He did not appear to have been shot, but did get injured during the struggle. He was taken to the hospital and is listed in fair condition.
Depending on what's found during this investigation, the guard may be let off for self-defense or he could wind up facing criminal charges.

"Overall I was very pleased with this card. I read the reviews before I purchased it so I knew to expect the texture verses a flat card; however, even though the paper wasn't completely smooth, I didn't have a hard time writing on it at all. It has the perfect coloring for what I was looking for, and it looks just like the picture available on the webiste. Also, it is the perfect size for a thank you card with just the right amount of space to write."
"This card was more beautiful in person. The colors are bright and cheery. I'm using them as thank you cards for presents for our new baby and have received many compliments."
"These notecards are perfect for the guest of honor to receive as part of her baby shower gift. She can use them to send notes to her guests thanking them for the gifts they brought. They are simple, elegant single notecards with your choice of monogram letter and footer that can be personalized."
"Didn't notice their note until now, how there won't actually be any glitter. I didn't think there would be glitter, but somehow I was still disappointed there wasn't any when I opened it. Still...very cute."
"I bought these thank you cards as they are the match to the Little Visitors Watermelon baby shower invitations that my mom got for my baby shower. I absolutely love the invitations and the thank you cards. The card stock is a nice thick weight and is the perfect compliment to the absolutely adorable invitations. Shipping time was also very good. I got them a few days or so after placing the order. I would order from tiny prints again."

Sun's McNealy Advises Obama Administration on Open Source
Sun cofounder Scott NcNealy has submitted a paper to the new U.S. administration about the cost savings and security benefits of Open Source software.
According to BBC News, the Obama administration has asked Sun chairman McNealy for a position statement justifying the administration's use of open source software. The BBC wasn't clear on who specifically asked him, but McNealy's spokesperson, on a query by the Linux community, acknowledged that McNealy had been meeting over the last year with members of the administration's new technology initiative, which apparently led to this request.
The former head of Sun advised the administration not to get "locked in" to a specific software vendor or company. He suggested that "the government ought to mandate open source products based on open source reference implementations to improve security, get higher quality software, lower costs, higher reliability."
Part of the reason for the government's request for proposal could be Obama's urgency to go "line by line" through the budget to cut unnecessary spending. And Obama had already promised during his campaign that he will insist on an open and transparent government. The administration's Technology Agenda says that it intends to "open up government to its citizens," and that with cutting-edge technologies.
McNealy's statements have clear support from the Open Source Initiative (OSI). According to OSI president (and Red Hat VP) Michael Tiemann, "It's an accident of history that proprietary standards became so entrenched so early and it's been a colossal expense for government." He estimates that the global loss due to proprietary software is "in excess of $1 trillion a year." Research firm Gartner Group tempers this slightly with analyst Mark Driver's assessment, "Do not expect to automatically save money with open source software, or OSS, or any technology without effective financial management."
Whether McNealy's appeal will have an immediate effect on the administration's technology decisions is yet to be seen. In any case, the White House Briefing Room has shown its best intentions by instituting a citizen blog with a mission: Communication, Transparency, Participation.
Open Source Policy Recommendation for HealthcareWe fully support Mr. McNealy's efforts in the promotion of open source technologies and hope there is a way for us to have our policy recommendation (see below) forwarded to Mr. McNealy's team for consideration.
In the paper we presented at the 5th Annual eHealth Initiative Conference in Washington in Dec. 2008, we examine ways to accelerate the adoption of electronic medical records (EMRs) through the building of regional health information networks (RHINs) using open source technologies. We look at the historical adoption of the World Wide Web and its associated 'network effects' that promoted the exponential growth of the Internet. We extrapolate the potential acceleration of the adoption of EMRs through an examination of Metcalfe's Law. We point to research that demonstrates that the use of open source solutions will increase the adoption of regional health organization (RHIOs) by 20% by 2014 -- effectively increasing the capacity of RHIO coverage from 48% to 60% of the country – supporting a policy recommendation.

For ONE dollar this is a steal! I use the All Over Cover Stick in Pink Lemonade for my cheeks, eyes, and lips. It has a deep rich pink color and it also smells really yummy!!! The only downside is that some of the shimmer will smear off if you rub your cheeks against something.
You can check out my review at youtube.com/xoKEEBUUxo
I have purchased these little concealers so many times. I won't say it is the very best concealer I've ever used, but it is really incredible for the price. I have tried many, many concealers and this (other than the smell and packaging) really is comparable to many drugstore and high end products. It covers well and I find that if I use it with a damp beauty blender sponge, it blends into my skin well. I have recently been using this on the weekends to save my favorite high end products for the work week. I use the Revlon Nearly Naked foundation which is pretty sheer and use this ELF concealer to cover acne spots, scars, and my under eyes. If you are looking for a concealer, I would really recommend giving this a try. Especially for $1, what is there to lose?

I've owned and used two sticks in fair (Apricot Beige). At first, I approached them as a product only to be used as a concealer, but, I was such a fan of Max Factor's stick foundation (when it was around), I figured I'd try using it as a foundation stick, as it matches my skin tone pretty well and has the consistency of a foundation stick.
I gave it a go and am happy with the results.
I have fair, normal to dry skin am an occasionally oil prone in my T-zone.
This product works for me as a light-to medium coverage foundation. The product blends well, yields a natural finish and covers imperfections.
Though a $1.00 yields a mini package, it is fairly long lasting, with daily use, as a little product goes a long way at least for someone like myself who does not require a full coverage foundation.
I suggest using a setting powder, particularly if you are oil-prone in your t-zone. I would use a setting powder with this product, even if I used it as a concealer only. I may not recommend this product for those who are acne prone and overtly oily. The packaging can be problematic. I had one package to break and would no longer spiral up/push up properly. I tossed it.
Overall though, I'm pleased with this product. For the price, I'm of the opinion that you get a great value and I appreciate the versatility of this product. I am using it as a foundation and can also see it used as a higlighter and a darker color used as a contour stick.
The small size makes it great for travel and for touch ups throughout the day.

Good shades, good coverage, I don't feel it is heavy or caky and it covers and conceals well for its price, I recommend it, I have it in Honey and it is perfect with an orange-like scent, I like it :)

I have this in Honey shade, it is very good. It's light and doesn't make my face dry. Maybe because I am using this over my Celeteque moisturizer. The shade is very good on my skin. The only question is that the packaging doesn't look very appealing but it's okay since it's cheap but all in all GOOD PRODUCT! I'll recommend this to my friends!

I've used this product a few times now and I have to say I'm really enjoying it. The packaging is cute and convenient, easily fits in my makeup bag. I got the shade 'apricot beige' and it matches my skin pretty well. The consistency is smooth and creamy and goes onto the skin really nicely. Once blended you really need to set it with a powder as it tends to move but apart from that it's a great product, and for £1.50 you can't go wrong! (As with most elf products the pictures on the website can be misleading so always research the swatches of the colour you want to get before ordering)

I dont use this product anymore.. My T Zones get very oily throughout the day.. I used this to outline my brows and what not as well but it makes it extremely dry, its very noticeable and makes my skin looks like its peeling or crusty.. I would have to go to the bathroom, put a little soap and water on a napkin and dab it to take it off.. Horrible product.. The day i stopped wearing it my boyfriend said to me "your makeup looks good today".. Thats when i threw it out of my makeup kit.. Dont buy this!

This is the review for the elf COVER stick concealer. This concealer is so nice. I got it for $1. It has amazing pigmentation. I am diffiniatly buy several more. I am surprise that this works great considering the price. Its also creamy and easy to apply.

I got this is Pink Lemonade. It comes off looking like more of a bright pink/barbie color than it does in the packaging. I love this product as a blush. It's so shimmery for me to enjoy it was a lip color and I can't imagine using it on your eyes. I do wish they had matte colors, but oh well.
-Good color
-Long lasting (I was quite surprised)
-Good price
-Easy to find
-Hard to blend (it needs to be more creamy)
-Poor packaging (cheap, but it gets the job done)

I buy this in triplicate. One for my purse, (not that's its used, but it's there in case of an emergency!) The second is in my makeup drawer for daily use, and the third I keep as backup. Once I need to open the backup one, it's time to place an order! Got all that? LOL.
Now, this is the greatest stuff, I've never been a concealer girl at all. Never. I bought this cause i loved the little twist up tube so figured I'd find a use for it. I did! I simply plop a stripe of it right down the center of my nose...then, with a damp sponge I start blending it outwards. It's the perfect amount for me to cover some redness on my nose and fullest part of cheeks and then I swipe the sponge under each eye (by then there really isn't anything on the sponge..I just like to blend stuff!)
I then take a big fluffy brush, dip into mineral foundation and dust it on like a finishing powder. I do a swirl around iin some light bronzer and swipe my face with that. That's it for my daily face meakeup. Since I've been using this "concealer" (Since i've used it more like very light foundation I guess.) my makeup stays on and looks really good all day.
I was quickly hooked on this. There isn't alot in the package, but afterall it's a concealer, so you only need a teeny amount anyway, but it's only $1. Mine have always been perfect to apply, never too dry nor too wet or 'mushy'. The color selection could be a bit more challenging, but that's not a concern for me since the light beige works great for me. I don't have any issues with this oxidizing or disappearing. In short, it's blends well, and stays where it needs to with no other issues until I take it off. I can't ask for more!
If you are at all interested in trying this product I say go for it! Hopefully you will fall in love with it too, but it's only a $1 if it doesn't work out. Pass it along to a friend :) continued >>

User Reviews
Date Reviewed: August 11, 2004
Strengths: If you ride in the rain, gradually subtracts weight from your bike by grinding aluminum off your rims.
Weaknesses: In my case, some of this ground-off aluminum somehow collected in a 1/2 mm deposit just below the pad surface (on both pads no less!)--impossible to dislodge without taking the pad off, yet surprisingly effective at chewing up my rim. I got these pads with XT brakes on clearance and replaced the pads after five rides. In 35 years of riding bicycles for transportation, I have never seen both pads collect a nugget of aluminum in the same place and grind a channel you can see and feel down the middle of a rim. I didn't know a pad could do this. Terrible grinding noise and extra black dust, of course.

Strengths: keeps the pad holder from contacting the rim.
Weaknesses: affinity for rim metal. rapid wear.
Bottom Line:
When I changed to WTB's I found that: little pieces of metal quit showing up in the pad, brakes don't HAVE to squeal, and that pads don't have to wear out every time it rains.
I've put 10x the wet riding on WTB/KoolStops than the OEM jobs, and they're still fine.
Seems like Shimano could do a better job. EVERY OTHER pad I've tried has been better than the Shimano product.
The good knews is-for Shimano pad users- I now carry a spare set in the Camelbak.

cyclophosphamide (oral/injection) (cont.)
What happens if I miss a dose (Cytoxan, Cytoxan Lyophilized, Neosar)?
Take the missed oral dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the dose you missed and take only the next regularly scheduled dose as directed. Do not take a double dose of this medication.
Contact your doctor if you miss a dose of cyclophosphamide injection.
What happens if I overdose (Cytoxan, Cytoxan Lyophilized, Neosar)?
Seek emergency medical attention.
Symptoms of a cyclophosphamide overdose may include decreased bone marrow function, infection, and heart problems.
What should I avoid while taking cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan, Cytoxan Lyophilized, Neosar)?
Cyclophosphamide can lower the activity of the immune system making you more susceptible to infection. Avoid contact with people who have colds, the flu, or other contagious illnesses. In addition, do not receive vaccines that contain a live strain of the virus (e.g., live oral polio vaccine) and avoid contact with individuals who have recently been vaccinated with a live virus.
What other drugs will affect cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan, Cytoxan Lyophilized, Neosar)?
Before taking cyclophosphamide, tell your doctor if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:
You may require a dosage adjustment or special monitoring during treatment if you are taking any of the medicines listed above.
Do not receive "live" vaccines during treatment with cyclophosphamide. Administration of a live vaccine may be dangerous during treatment with cyclophosphamide.
Other drugs may interact with cyclophosphamide. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking any other prescription or over-the-counter medicines, including herbal products, during treatment with cyclophosphamide.
Where can I get more information?
Your pharmacist has additional information about cyclophosphamide written for health professionals that you may read.
Report Problems to the Food and Drug Administration
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit the FDA MedWatch website or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

I appreciated the quick response to my order. I had not been able to get this particular fragrance at the departments stores in our area. I was glad to be able to see that this fragrance was available from your company online and at a slightly lower price than some other online companies.

"Cast a Spell" is one of those fragrances that falls under the 'you really love it' or 'you really dislike it" category. When I first came across this fragrance in 2006, I was underwhelmed and completely turned off. I thought it smelled rancid and awkward. I kept testing the fragrance in stores and over time I eventually began to enjoy it. Four years later I ordered it on a whim (and because of the dirt cheap price tag) and now I am in love with it.
I recommend this fragrance to those who adore the original Lolita Lempicka fragrance. Definitely a dark and sultry fragrance.
Most Liked Negative Review
A little bitter at first. Reminded me of Chamomile. Liked it more the longer it was on. Turned into a warm, woodsey scent. It does "cast a spell."

It's no Alibaba, but the Citizens Financial Group offering is important to the market.
- Can Sears, Rite Aid come back?
Only one of these troubled companies is worth owning, Jim Cramer says.
- Fracking gives energy boom room to run
Wells have become more productive -- a trend that should keep the fuels flowing.
With the fighter jet eventually expected to account for 20% of revenue, any further production delays will push up the company's aeronautics backlog and reduce earnings
Highlighting the structural glitches which have plagued the program, Venlet told AOL Defense that tempering production rates may now be necessary. His remarks draw into question Lockheed's "concurrency strategy," which seeks to maximize unit production before test flights are completed with a view to retrofitting any necessary repairs.
With global markets expected to remain challenging over the next few quarters, the bank's trading yield will also likely see a decline.
The global investment bank has been one of the most volatile financial stocks in recent months, along with Bank of America (BAC), and both have seen several single-day fluctuations of more than 5% as events related to the European debt situation unfolded. This extreme volatility can be largely attributed to the bank's extensive sales and trading operations, which can contribute anywhere between 30% and 50% of its total revenue from quarter to quarter.
With increasingly hostile opposition, AT&T has decided to withdraw its application and focus on securing Department of Justice approval.
The company and Deutsche Telekom (DT), T-Mobile's parent, announced Monday that they have asked a federal judge to stay further hearings until Jan. 18th so that they could "evaluate all options." This comes after the Justice Department announced its intentions to postpone or dismiss its lawsuit seeking to block the deal. With AT&T's withdrawal of its merger application with regulators, the Justice Department has no reason to pursue the case.
VCs, whose entire business model revolves around their ability to focus on the upside potential of pretty much anything, are showing signs of unease.
By Suzanne McGee, The Fiscal Times
Angst over the surprises that may lurk in 2012 isn't confined to investors in stocks and bonds, or to the economists trying to puzzle out the impact of Europe's sovereign debt crisis on global growth.
Even venture capitalists -- whose entire business model revolves around their ability to focus on the upside potential of pretty much anything, in pretty much any kind of scenario -- are showing signs of unease.

Transaction processors win favor as the global switch to electronic payments gains traction.
By Kate Stalter, MoneyShow.com
The choppy markets of 2011 have brought some predictable winners, such as discount retailers and dividend-paying big caps. But one "under the radar" industry that's fared well is that of transaction processors and electronic payment systems.
Two high-profile companies from that arena -- which some indices classify as finance and others as tech -- are S&P 500 components MasterCard (MA) and Visa (V).
What does this mean for energy stocks?
By Tom Aspray, MoneyShow.com
The stronger dollar (read: plunging euro) and OPEC's decision to keep output of crude oil at current levels was a double whammy on Wednesday.
As if that wasn't enough, the US Energy Information Administration later reported higher-than-expected inventories, as well as demand for crude oil that was almost 9% lower than last year.
The stock takes off after the shipping giant announces solid earnings.
FedEx's (FDX) better-than-expected fiscal-second-quarter earnings report, released Thursday, is more proof that the U.S. economic recovery is for real.
Net income at the Memphis, Tenn., parcel delivery company rose 76% to $497 million, or $1.57 per share, as more consumers used FedEx Home Delivery and FedEx SmartPost services during the holiday season. Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg had expected earnings of $1.53. Revenue rose 10% to $10.59 billion, in line with estimates.
We need reasons beyond 'commodities down, buy financial assets' -- because we have been down this path so many times.
Despite grim headlines, investment pros who know the stock say this is a good time to buy.
Shares of Best Buy (BBY) have gotten slammed and will likely continue to stagger.
But don't panic. Some investment pros who know the largest retailer of consumer electronics quite well are saying the seemingly unthinkable: Buy Best Buy's stock. It is probably the cheapest deal in the store right now.
These picks are undervalued based on a price-to-earnings growth strategy.
Twenty-seven years ago, Standard & Poor's created the PEG ratio (price-to-earnings growth) to measure the degree to which a growth stock is undervalued.
We use the ratio to find growth stocks selling at reasonable prices. The PEG ratio is calculated by dividing the price to earnings (P/E) ratio by the earnings growth rate. The growth rate is our estimated rate of EPS growth for the next five years. A PEG ratio of less than 1.00 indicates that a stock is undervalued.
Capitalizing on the huge demand for Apple's smartphone, China Unicom should be able to increase its mobile market share.
China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has issued a network permit to China Unicom, the country's second largest carrier, to sell the phone from this month onward, making it likely that the phone will be available for Christmas. Since its debut in October, Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 4S has ruled smartphone sales for two consecutive months at the three major carriers in the U.S.: Verizon (VZ), AT&T (T) and Sprint (S).
Some of the world's best investors are keying in on natural-resource plays.
Some of the world's most successful investors have been bullish on natural-resource stocks recently as the world population continues to rise, global economies operate on non-renewable resources, and central banks inject huge sums into the financial system.
One is Jeremy Grantham of GMO, who has been high on resource stocks as longer-term investments for some time. "I like (personally) resources in the ground on a 10-year horizon," Grantham wrote in his recent third-quarter letter to clients.
The company says it will return to full operations at its Grasberg mine by early next year.
The soft-drink giant strikes a $980 million deal with a Saudi soda company.
By John Thorpe, Benzinga Staff Writer
Coca-Cola (KO) announced Wednesday that it has reached an agreement to buy half of Saudi Arabia's Aujan Industries' drinks business.
The deal, valued at $980 million, gives the U.S. beverage maker a significant inroad to the growing food and beverage markets in the Middle East and North Africa. The company said in October that it wanted to move into those markets wherever it was strategically possible to do so. Now, it seems to have that foothold.
Major homebuilders have soared since early October, and some analysts say there's no real justification for the rise.
A foreclosure glut is still dragging the sector down. The National Association of Realtors just said the market downturn was worse than it thought. Freddie Mac's chief economist is predicting "another bumpy ride" for 2012.
But shares of D.R. Horton (DHI) were up nearly 50% this week from early October. Toll Brothers (TOL) was up more than 45% in that time. Lennar (LEN) was up more than 50%.

Beloved husband, father, and grandfather, Richard "Ernie" Poston died Monday, May 19, 2014. Poston was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1935. He served the public on the San Antonio police force after military service in the US Navy. He relocated to California in 1966, eventually settling in Boulder Creek.
Ernie was a fixture in the San Lorenzo Valley for 48 years. He was involved in the community, coaching Little League baseball for many years. He met his wife Pam in 1981 while coaching her son's Pony League baseball team. They were married 33 years.
Ernie was a long-time business owner in the Santa Cruz area, making many friends and providing wonderful service to his many customers. He recently retired and was looking forward to returning to the golf course to "get his swing back."
He is survived by his wife Pam, sons Ed, Andy, David, and Bruce; daughters-in-law Lisa, Sherry, and Sherri; grandchildren Maggie, Grace, Brooke and Ellie; his mother Fern; brother Keith; sister Jann; brother-in-law Ronnie. He is preceded in death by his father Melvin, and nephew Jordan.

Yaya Toure thinks teammate Balotelli is 'at war with himself'
Troubled striker Mario Balotelli is at war with himself, according to Manchester City team-mate Yaya Toure.
The Italian was hauled off by Roberto Mancini during the second half of Sunday's 3-2 derby defeat by United.
It was the latest disappointment for Balotelli, 22, in a season that promised so much after his Euro 2012 performances with Italy, the Daily Star reports.
"Mario is an unbelievable player, but sometimes he can be angry with himself. All players need to improve and I talk all the time with Mario," Toure said.
"This year especially he has been working hard in training and improving well - but sometimes in the game you can get so disappointed when you lose small things," he added.
"But he has fantastic character and I know he will be one of the top strikers in the Premier League ," he continued. (ANI)

- ConsistentFoodieJimDined on 9/19/2014The Prime Rib possesses a rare commodity these days - superb consistency. TPR is the same year after year: outstanding food, excellent service, great jazz, romantic and sophisticated atmosphere - a little bit of Manhattan in downtown Baltimore. It is a throwback to a more civil and elegant time. I am sorry to see the requirement that men wear a suit jacket or blazer after 5pm is no longer enforced. Men sitting around in T-shirts detracts from the overall ambiance.Special Features:
- The prime ribOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/17/2014When we first walked in I felt very judged, but I'm used to looks so I ignored it. It was our first time there and the waiter did not seem to care either way. I just felt uncomfortable most of the night. The food was excellent and prices were not bad. I had more of a pleasurable experience at Ruth Chris and Fogo De Choa. I ordered the cheesecake for dessert and asked if they can do something special since it was our anniversary and it ended up being complimentary which was nice. My only suggestion would be to be a bit more welcoming. I will recommend this place .Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My time at the Prime Rib BaltimoreDmacDined on 9/13/2014It was my first time dining at the Prime Rib (Baltimore) for My girlfriend and I's one year anniversary. When we arrived we received free valet parking and once inside were greeted very quickly. The restaurant is nice inside and there were some musicians playing some nice music. Our food was delicious and our waiter was very attentive. My only complaint is maybe the seating could be a little more spaced out, We were sat in the middle of the floor and waiters kept having to squeeze through in very tight spaces, so my gf and I were gettin buttcheeks on our shoulders every couple of minutes. Other than that I had a great time!Special Features:
- A Bit DisappointingBillVIPDined on 9/12/2014I have dined here many times in the past and always came away pleased. This time was different. The waiter seemed preoccupied and didn't really pay attention. I ordered an old fashioned straight up and got it on the rocks. When my wife was speaking to him he turned and walked away in mid sentence. We ordered the filet and lobster tail. The filets were cooked to order but the lobster tails looked as if they were from a crayfish. Desserts and coffee were up to their usual good standards, but for what you pay here, the service should be better.Special Features:
- Mt. Vernon great eaterytravelandeatVIPDined on 9/12/2014A wonderful Mt. Vernon find .The prime rib was cooked perfectly and the addition of freshly grated horseradish was pleasant. We have been in the area for 5 weeks, and so far this is our favorite spot.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always the bestMSFAVIPDined on 9/11/2014Five people, five great meals. Our server, Nathan was outstanding.Special Features:
- Best "Fine Dining" in BaltimoreTylerDined on 9/6/2014My wife and I celebrated out 7-year anniversary this past Saturday night (our 3rd visit to the restaurant). When you first walk in, the host is extremely welcoming, and the staff at the bar is more than ready to start you off with a delicious cocktail. Although my wife and I have our "go-to" selections, Chuck, our waiter did recommend the Shrimp Cocktail appetizer (awesome), and the creamed corn side (outstanding). She had the small Prime Rib, and I had the Crab Cakes. My wife swears the PR is the best she has ever had and the crab cakes are the best I have ever had (raised on the Eastern Shore of MD). The ambiance of the dining area, the oustanding professionalism of the waitstaff, IMHO, makes PR the best "Fine Dining" spot in B-more.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/6/2014As always, wonderful service and food. A great place to go for a special occasion.Special Features:
- Always very nicePattDined on 9/5/2014Amazingly not super busy. Server Zack, professional and attentive. Food very good as usual. Still do not like the closeness of some of the tables. Diners next to us with very little "squeeze in" room for seating. Had to protect my food as they became seated. Not cheap but worth it. Will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Fantastic Everything.JasonrebeccadateDined on 9/4/2014The best NY Strip that I have every had. I have been to every steak house in the greater Baltimore area. My lady friend and I sat at a cozy secluded table with the most comfortable chairs that I have sat in. The service was impecable. Our waiter, Nathan was on top of everything. Pricey , but you definetly left feeling pampered. The piano player was a perfect touch as well.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- PHENOMENAL!!!luvsushi2Dined on 8/31/2014This was our first visit to Prime Rib and we were very excited to be dining as we had never reserved far enough in advance several times before to be able to visit. We frequent a few steak houses on a pretty normal basis, but we have to admit that these were the best steaks we have ever had at any restaurant!!! We had the Filet AuPoivre and the dry aged Strip. Perfection without a doubt!! The signature potato skins were delicious as well as the rest of our meal and the desserts!! Our server Warren was awesome as well as the entire staff at PR. The added touch of the live piano music was the icing on the cake! We will definitely be going back again and again.Special Features:

- Still the best.MSFAVIPDined on 8/28/2014When I travel, I always compare the NY Strip to the PRs. So far no better.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/26/2014Excellent venue. While not really a downside to the experience, there were two minor irritants: while the address is listed as Calvert Street, the entrance and signage is on the cross street and away from the intersection; second, there was no one at the valet station in front of the entrance; by way of explanation, we were told the valet was in the garage that evening, and the maitre d' quickly resolved the matter by taking the keys.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent food and serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/24/2014Everyone was fantastic and it made my anniversary with my wife a wonderful experience. Our server, Warren, was excellent. I cannot wait until the next time to come back with my brother and his wifeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Charleston insteadHL00Dined on 8/23/2014Was rather quiet for a steakhouse, greeter was very warm. Menu felt very worn, stuck to the book, was poorly bound. Asked if we "needed the wine list" as opposed to just giving it to us. Extremely cramped. Filet mignon was excellent, though presentation was lackluster; tiny side salad didn't look very clean. Bread was excellent, waiter was unprofessional for this restaurant caliber; misserved dish; key lime cheesecake was very poorly cut and looked unappetizing--way too sweet. For about 25% more of the total cost, you might as well go to Charleston.
- I love this placeQuitaVIPDined on 8/21/2014We go there every year for our anniversary dinner. It's well worth it.Special Features:
- GoodSKYDIVERDined on 8/16/2014The service was very good, and the atmosphere was excellent. However, the filet was not up to par for the price paid, and the onion rings could have been better. Overall, the Prime Rib partially lived up to its reputation, but it could have been better.
- Best Ever35thAnniversaryDined on 8/16/2014I discovered the Prime Rib when I was searching on Google for an elegant restaurant for my 35th wedding anniversary. I was very impressed with the advertisement and how easy it was to make a reservation. The valet parking was a little bit hard to find, but was perfect when I pulled into the garage. Going up the stairs from the garage was somewhat of adventure until we walked into the restaurant. We were greeted immediately, seated promptly and served as soon as we were seated. The ambiance was just what we were looking for. The food was the best ever. To my delight, we were served with a chocolate mousse and a candle to celebrate our anniversary. I would highly recommend the Prime Rib to all my friends.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent restaurantbaltimorefoodieDined on 8/10/2014Prime rib you could cut with a fork and all the food was marvelous. Really enjoyed the piano payer and Sunday half price wine was a bonus. Had the key lime pie thought I was full but it was so good I finished my pieSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- HappyDinersHappyDinersDined on 8/10/2014The Prime Rib was a great dining experience for our Anniversary Dinner. We were lucky that it fell during Restaurant Week, so we were able to order an excellent variety of foods at a very reasonable price! The choices were good, the food was delicious, and the portions plentiful. The service was a little slow (seemed like the non-restaurant week clients may have received a bit more attention) but it was friendly and we felt not at all rushed. We had not been back to the Prime Rib for quite awhile, and will not wait that long again! We loved the food and the atmosphere!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- adelerobinDined on 8/10/2014I took my sister out for her birthday during Restaurant Week. It was the best thing I did. The food, service, and ambiance were fantastic. We will go back again.Special Features:
- The Prime Rib is a StarVerneneVIPDined on 8/10/2014This classic old restaurant in Baltimore is the best! I never fails but instead, is a stalwart gem for Baltimore and presents a culinary diamond to everyone who enters its hallowed walls. Service is synonymous with the days of yore i.e. 1950-s and earlier: Fabulously top-notch but serene. Every food item is a succulent morsel for the diner's palate. Every Marylander needs to experience this restaurant because it's a life-changing experience to remember. Yes, this is a star, in Baltimore!Special Features:
- Fine dining at its finestthailDined on 8/9/2014This was one of the best restaurants I've been to in a long while. Not only was the food above n beyond delicious but the service waswonderful. Eventhough I visited during restaurant week n expected it to be a mediocre experience, we were seated immediately, received some good recommendations, and the waiter was very attentive, friendly and anticipated our every need for the mostl part. I definitely look forward to going back. It would b worth the moneySpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Restaurant Week VisitPatricioDined on 8/9/2014Another couple, my wife and I dined on the fixed price of $30-35 for 3 course meals. We had 4 different entrees and everyone enjoyed their meal. It was a bit noisy, but we were seated on time and served promptly. It was very good overall and I think I will return.Special Features:
- The name sake dish is always good..live2eatVIPDined on 8/9/2014The prime rib steak was good as usual, but the night we were there, it was a little over done than the requested medium making it much too firm. As in the past, the presentation can be tidied up better. May be using a larger diameter plate will help.Special Features:
- Restaurant Week Wrap UpAryzonaVIPDined on 8/8/2014We decided to go here once again before restaurant week wrapped up and this time... it was PACKED!!! In a good way!! The food was still amazing but due to the amount of people there, the service suffered a bit. Other than that... it was a great experience as always!Special Features:
- The BIG rib steak... blueBeastlyDined on 8/8/2014Done perfectly. One of the best steaks I've ever eaten. And steak is my favorite indulgence. Will be my first stop whenever I might get back. Might even be worth the airfare.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Our FavoriteTinaMarieDined on 8/8/2014Prime Rib has been our favorite restaurant for years. It's consistently excellent. Very attentive wait staff. The food is always prepared to perfection. Baltimore has lots of fantastic restaurants and we've tried many but we keep coming back to Prime Rib.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Never fails to deliver!OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/8/2014The Prime Rib is a Baltimore icon. It takes you back in time to supper clubs with jazz playing in the back ground. Waitstaff addressing your every whim and a prime rib prepared just the way you ask. Amazing night with my lady cousins made all the more magical by our waiter Chuck's top nouch service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Time As UsualRickLuv2DineDined on 8/8/2014I dine at the Prime Rib 7-9 times a year and it's truly one of my favorite places in Baltimore to dine. I almost always have the prime rib and is it always terrific. Their wine is one of the best in Baltimore and they also host a nice selection of dinner scotches.Special Features:
- Classic steakhouse with grey steakTomKDined on 8/8/2014I had never been to prime rib before tonight and didn't know what to expect. It's a very classy place, maybe seen as outdated but I think it worked well with the piano playing and ambience. We went during restaurant week and i was surprised at how good the food was. The prime rib was excellent and definitely worth the slurge. My fiancé had the filet mignon but I thought it was drier. Both were cooked to perfect temp. Spinach and potato sides were really good, as was the key lime pie dessert and tomato soup app. The food is definitely on the same level as a Ruth Chris but just a totally different ambience, and for the better. Service was outstanding too. Don't be put off by the location or decor, it's like a refreshing step back in timeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 8/8/2014As always, the best! Superb food, service, and ambience...even during Restaurant Week (so an excellent deal, also).Special Features:
- Prime ribMommy2471Dined on 8/8/2014The restaurant was amazing. Nathan our server was professional & had a wonderful, fun personality. The only thing that was a surprise was that the prime rib wasn't good (considering name of restaurant). The filet & crab imperial was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Restaurant week reviewyanamariDined on 8/7/2014While we waited about 25 minutes beyond our reservation time (8:30 on a weeknight), the host apologized and explained he was waiting for several tables to free up, but that they were sitting chatting. Not his fault. When we were seated, we were offered a complimentary bottle of Restaurant Week wine or two cocktails (very nice!). The dining room is tight, but chairs were comfortable. Our waiter, Chuck, was wonderful. He's half the reason we'd return! My fiance ordered the prime rib, which I wish I'd gotten because it was EXCELLENT. Filet was just fine; flame broiled but cooked nicely. We probably enjoyed the bread & butter too much. Creamed spinach and potatoes were simple but nicely done. I'd give the food 4 1/2 stars. Great experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Adult Fiction ROSENFE
Summary: "There is nothing like a golden retriever. I know, I know, it's a big planet with a lot of wonderful things, but golden retrievers are the absolute best. Mine is named Tara . . . The only problem she has ever caused is that I spend so much time with her in the mornings that I am almost invariably late for work." Whether dueling with new forensics or the local old boys' network, irreverent defense attorney Andy Carpenter always leaves them awed with his biting wit and winning fourth-quarter game plan. But Andy prefers the company of his best friend, Tara, to the people he encounters in the courtroom. Tara, a golden retriever, is clearly smarter than half the lawyers who clog the courts of PassaicCounty. However, just as it seems Andy has everything figured out, his dad,New Jersey's legendary ex-D.A., drops dead in front of him at a game in Yankee Stadium. The shocks pile on as he discovers his dad left him with two unexpected legacies: a fortune of $22 million that Andy never knew existed . . . and a murder case with enough racial tinder to burn down City Hall. Struggling to serve justice and bring honor to his father, Andy must dig up some explosive political skeletons-and an astonishing family secret that can close his case (and his mouth) for good.

Oral Roberts swept this week's Summit League baseball honors, which were announced by the conference Monday.
Senior second baseman Cam Schiller earned the player of the week honor after batting .529 in the Golden Eagles' four games last week, all victories.
Schiller went 9-for-17 with two home runs, seven runs batted in and scored eight runs during the week as the Golden Eagles improved to 6-and-5 on the young season.
So far this year, Schiller is batting .289 with three home runs and leads the team with 13 runs batted in.
Teammate Drew Bowen shared the conference pitcher of the week honor with Western Illinois' Nick Smith.
Bowen, a senior from Tulsa Memorial, tossed a complete game in Friday's 11-1 rout of Alcorn State. He allowed one run on seven hits and struck out ten while walking one.
This season, Bowen is 2-and-0 in three starts with a 3.32 earned run average.
Oral Roberts returns to the road Friday playing the Louisville Cardinals in the Alabama Classic in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

Employee Social Options
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
Our Employee Social Options Program (Esops) connects Mahindra employees with people who need help. Each year, we organize ongoing initiatives or one-time programs to reach out to groups like the elderly, the disabled, disadvantaged students, or rural population. During the year from 2012-2013, 19,867 Esops volunteers contributed 1,09,250 man-hours. And each year, more and more volunteers join us in reaching out—we've grown more than four times in size since the first Esops in 2006.
We target to donate 1 percent of our annual profit after tax to social activities each year, but we also believe in the importance of spending our own time and effort. Run by our Corporate Social Responsibility Department, Esops coordinates and focuses employees' activities in order to create the greatest impact on the problems we tackle. Employees can select from a wide range of activities in the three focused areas of Health, Education, and Environment, or get involved in special local initiatives.
Our initiatives effect lasting change through education or permanent operation. For example, we support an annual traveling hospital on rails, the Lifeline Express, to bring free surgical treatment to people with polio-related orthopedic disabilities, hearing disorders, cleft lips, and eye problems. The Lifeline Express partners with district health and administration authorities, doctors, surgeons, technicians, and students to provide consistent care free of charge.
Our education initiatives are designed in response to local needs. In FY 2009-2010, the Mahindra Spares business provided guidance and career counseling for 100 school dropouts and their parents. Our automotive plant in Mumbai ran a 14-day program for women to develop their personal skills, supporting female empowerment by training women to be effective self-advocates. And our farm equipment operations in Nagpur responded to the farmer suicide epidemic in the Vidarbha region with an initiative to identify and train resource-poor youth, empowering them to take advantage of other career opportunities.

Redefining brand territory
Simply Market establishes real proximity with its customers
Managed by the Auchan Group, Simply Market is a young brand of French supermarket created in 2005. Interbrand's expertise was solicited to define a clear positioning for the market chain, which would differentiate the brand and streamline its communication.
Our team conducted a series of brand definition and brand expression workshops, along with senior management interviews, in order to articulate Simply Market's vision, mission, and values and establish strong brand positioning. "Proximity with customers" emerged as a key differentiating quality and became the axis of the new identity.
Incorporating warm, straightforward imagery, always containing a human element, our team updated the brand's visual identity by refining the logo and simplifying the color palette and typography.
Capturing the uncomplicated essence of these customer friendly, food-focused markets, the launch of the new identity was a success. Our team continues to assist Simply Market as they implement the new identity across all touchpoints.

As of Tuesday, August 6, 2013
© Copyright 2014 Albany Herald
ALBANY, Ga. — E.G. Sherman Jr., PhD, has released a new book, "Black Religiosity: A Biblical and Historical Perspective."
The book is a collection of essays that focus on the eclectic religious experiences of African Americans from the beginning of slavery in 1619 through emancipation in 1863. Sherman says that through these previously voiced sermons and lectures, he documents the fact that African descendants were exposed to and participated in Christianity before the advent of slavery.
Once slavery was instituted, enslaved African Americans were forbidden by law to practice religion. They met in secret to worship and held on to their belief in God and commitment to family, Sherman notes.
"It communicates the emphasis the enslaved people placed on God as they coped with inhumane conditions and how their faith, prayer and worship helped them survive and leave a legacy," he said.
Sherman, who holds three doctorates, is a professor emeritus of sociology, history and philosophy with Albany State University. He is a former vice president of a seminary and is founding pastor of Institutional First Baptist Church, Albany. His website is www.biblicalechoes.com.

Aromatherapy and Psoriasis: Link Between Smell & Skin Explained
Aromatherapy and Psoriasis: The Lock & Key
Aromatherapy is an ancient art that aims to heal the body through different scents. It is a tradition whose scent has perfumed the history of human civilization.
Its smell can be followed to ancient India; entire temples were made out of aromatic sandalwood, and Vedic texts contain references to the uses of different essential oils. Drifting a little more to the East, aromatherapy had an early start in 2000 BC, when Emperor Kwang-Ti of China first wrote about the healing powers of pomegranate, opium and rhubarb. Other exotic essences also permeated the air, with jasmine and cinnamon both originating from China.
In fact, the use of aromatherapy can be traced to every age and every civilization – from the Greeks, to the Romans (who stored their Chanel-equivalents in bottled oils called unguentariums) and onto Arabia, where the art reached a whole new level as the process of distillation was perfected.
But how does it work? Every molecule of an essential oil has its own unique shape. As we inhale, it is swept along the olfactory epithelium until it falls into its specific place, just like a key in a lock. When this happens, it unlocks a door, and a chemical message is sent to the brain, which releases its own neurotransmitters that order the body to react in different ways.
By using particular essential oils for psoriasis, we're sending our skin different messages such as "stop producing so many skin cells" and "can you itch less, please?"
To keep reading about aromatherapy and psoriasis, check out our article on The 6 Best Essential Oils For Psoriasis.

MERRILL, Wis. (WSAU) - Merrill's Christmas Spirit Appeal is completed and organizers say the program has been a complete success.
The program is a full outreach of Lincoln County churches and charitable organizations, based around Saint Vincent de Paul's in Merrill. Merrill fire captain Mike Drury says families took tags from trees around the area and helped fulfil Christmas wishes for children. "The recommended price for each kid was around 35 dollars, but some people donated quite a bit more than that."
Drury says donations not only concluded toys, but also basic supplies for families such as toiletries, towels, bedding and other items. A few beds were donated as well after the fire department found out some kids weren't sleeping in beds in the homes, and at least one homeless person was given help and found a place to live after the department got word they'd been sleeping nights in a church lobby.
Officials says around 250 families and 700 kids were helped this year. The total amount donated is not known, due to the anonymous nature of the program, but if the average 35 dollar donation was reached, that's around 25-thousand dollars in total.
