HARRISONBURG, Va., Nov. 10, 2012 – Hofstra rallied to win the final three sets as it hit .205 on the night for a 3-1 win over the James Madison volleyball team at Sinclair Gymnasium on Saturday evening.
HU won by set scores of 14-25, 31-29, 25-22, 25-20 to sweep the season series with JMU. The Pride improved to 18-13 on the season and 6-6 in Colonial Athletic Association play. JMU dropped to 12-15 and 5-7 in the league.
The loss means the Dukes will be the sixth seed in next weekend's CAA Championship hosted by Towson University. They face third-seeded Northeastern in the quarterfinals on Friday, Nov. 16.
Senior outside hitter Danielle Erb (Tampa, Fla./Plant) paced the Dukes on the evening with her 15th double-double of the season. She hit .286 with 10 kills and 13 digs. Four other players had between eight and 11 kills on the night led by sophomore middle blocker Lizzy Briones (Siloam Springs, Ark./Siloam Springs) with 11 and four blocks. Freshmen Meghan Niski (St. Charles, Ill./St. Charles East) and MacKenzie Kleespies (Lincoln University, Pa./Avon Grove) had nine kills each while redshirt senior Natalie Abel (Washington, Pa./Trinity) had eight.
Junior libero Katie Daorai (Tampa, Fla./Plant) had a team-high 18 digs, adding three assists and a kill. Senior setter Megan Wiechmann (Sunland, Calif./Village Christian) handed out 20 assists to go with three digs while freshman setter Sarah Patterson (Roanoke, Va./Hidden Valley) had 22 helpers, three digs, a kill, a block and an ace.
Outside hitter Kelsie Wills lead all players with 18 kills and added 10 digs for a double-double. Outside hitter Nikki Kinnier contributed 17 kills, five digs and three blocks while outside hitter Emily Burke had 12 kills on .310 hitting. Libero Kylee Maneja led all players with 19 digs while setter Catalina Charry had 45 assists, 14 digs, four kills and a service ace.
The Pride outhit the Dukes .205 to .179 and picked up 67 digs to 63 for Madison. Each team had seven blocks and two service aces.
The first set was all JMU as it won the first three points and seven of the first nine to build a 7-2 advantage. HU never got closer than three points the remainder of the set as JMU closed out the set with a 25-14 win.
The second set featured 17 ties and six lead changes as the team's battled back and forth the entire way. A Madison attack error with the score tied at 23 gave Hofstra its first set point of the night. The Dukes fought off five set points and even reached set point once themselves, but the Pride ultimately got a kill by middle blocker Sara Campolina and forced an attack error to win 31-29.
Out of the break, Hofstra took control of set three with a four-point run early in the set. The run put HU up 9-6 and it never ceded that lead. Back-to-back kills by Abel and Erb and a JMU block late in the set pulled Madison to within two and forced a timeout by the Pride, but Wills picked up a kill after the strategy session to close out the set.
The Pride closed out the match in the fourth set. They trailed 9-7, but won 13 of the next 20 points to open up a 20-16 lead. The Dukes cut the lead to three points three times, but Campolina and Wills earned consecutive kills to earn the 25-20 win in the set and 3-1 win in the match.
The CAA Championship starts with the quarterfinals on Friday, Nov. 16 with matches at 4 and 7 p.m. Semifinal matches are set for Saturday at the same time as the quarterfinals while Sunday's championship game is scheduled to be played at 5 p.m.

One of the reasons why Eve left WWE was to be able to spend more time with him.
April 13, 2014
The big story line coming out of Total Divas this week is John Cena purchasing a house for Nikki Bella. The couple was the centerpiece of the reality television show earlier when Cena refused to marry Nikki, prompting wrestling fans to wonder if they were going to break up.

WWE still has to decide on what to do with Daniel Bryan at the pay per view, though.
April 9, 2014
"Heartbroken. My sincerest condolences go out to the Warrior's family. Seeing how much he loved his daughters and his wife this weekend makes it all the more heartbreaking.

Reace in peace, Warrior." - Daniel Bryan on the death of the Ultimate Warrior
April 9, 2014

It has now been revealed that the woman was his sister, and the little girl was his niece.
April 7, 2014
Considering how incredible the show was, WWE should not have any issues with coming up with Wrestlemania 30 highlights to show on Monday Night Raw this week. Brock Lesnar, Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, Rock, Daniel Bryan, Triple H, Batista, John Cena, Bray Wyatt, Randy Orton, Kofi Kingston, Big Show and Antonio Cesaro provided plenty of memorable Wrestlemania moments.
April 7, 2014
Since their relationship is well documented on Total Divas, WWE fans believed that Brie Bella would be coming out at the end of Wrestlemania 30 to celebrate with her boyfriend Daniel Bryan after he was able to capture the heavyweight championship. However, she posted this message on Twitter to explain that the company prevented her from doing just that.
April 7, 2014
Despite interference from Stephanie McMahon and Triple H in the main event of Wrestlemania 30, Daniel Bryan was able to defy the odds by beating both Randy Orton and Batista to become the new WWE Heavyweight Champion. He took quite a beating in the match before finally locking Batista into his Yes Lock for the submission victory. Bryan celebrated in the ring afterwards.
April 6, 2014
In the opening match at Wrestlemania 30, Daniel Bryan shocked the world by cleaning defeating Triple H. He won via pin fall after a running knee. Afterwards, HHH and Stephanie McMahon attacked Bryan, who is heading into the main event of Wrestlemania to challenge Randy Orton and Batista for the WWE heavyweight championship.
April 6, 2014
"I'm looking forward to going out there in front of 70,000 people and doing what I love to do. It's exciting. Every year Undertaker goes out there and has the best match of the show, I want this to be the year that he doesn't." - Daniel Bryan discusses his desire to outperform the Undertaker at Wrestlemania 30
April 6, 2014
Since Vince McMahon is a big fan of tinkering, there are plans backstage right now to do a last minute stipulation addition to the match between Daniel Bryan and Triple H at Wrestlemania 30. WWE is thinking about turning it into a Submission Match or a No Disqualification Match. Some feel that a normal match between the two would not be good enough.

Even with some unscrupulous publishers, negligent networks and careless agencies, brands can have as much safety as they are willing to pay for, writes Dan de Sybel, director of technology and operations, Infectious Media.
The drive towards more transparency in online advertising has revealed an ugly truth. There is a lot of bad quality inventory out there and many big name advertisers are appearing on it. How have we come to this, why is it so prevalent and why does it feel like so little is being done about it?
Getting an ad placement up on a new website is often as easy as signing up to an exchange or network, downloading a tag and placing it on your site. Some exchanges/networks will vet the site first and classify the content, but others do not. Even for those that do, there is nothing stopping an unscrupulous website owner from changing the content post vetting or simply putting the vetted ad placement tag on a completely different site.ExchangeWire

With trades involved, how does this mock draft from Evan Sidery shake out. Does Jimmer head to Indiana, or does a prospect they like fall to them? Who gets traded for picks around the NBA? Find all that out and more in Mock Draft 3.0!
In this final matchup, we have two great combatants squaring off for your vote to be crowned the Indy Cornrows 23rd Pick Tournament Champion. Will it be Dennis Schroeder of Germany, or Tony Snell of New Mexico capturing this year's crown?
Evan Sidery takes all of your questions through Twitter and email that you submitted to us. Who is Indiana leaning toward selecting? Will the Jimmer Fredette trade happen? Find out all this information here!
In our final semifinals matchup, we have two point guards squaring off for a chance to move on to the finals tomorrow. Erick Green of Virginia Tech and Dennis Schroeder of Germany are squaring off for your vote. Who will advance on to the finals?
In the first semifinals matchup of the day, we have Tony Snell of New Mexico facing off against the idea of trading Danny Granger to move up in the draft. Either one of these things would be helpful for the Pacers next season. Who will advance on?
According to ESPN's Chad Ford and Marc Stein, Indiana and Sacramento have been in discussions about trading the 23rd pick for Jimmer Fredette.
Our resident NBA Draft expert/analyst, Evan Sidery unveils his big board. Due to time constraints with the mock draft 3.0, last-minute scouting on prospects, and doing a special edition podcast for you all with ESPN Insiders, it is not as detailed.
Indiana has scheduled their final group workout for Tuesday. After having seven workouts, it will wrap up after that. Reggie Bullock of North Carolina headlines Indiana's final workout. He is expected to go anywhere from 19-27 on draft night.
This matchup is the best one of the tournament, by far. A colossal battle like this is finals worthy, but they meet a little earlier. Dennis Schroeder would be a major upgrade to the backup point guard position, while trading the pick is intriguing.
Indiana scheduled their sixth group workout for Monday, which includes six prospects. Tony Snell of New Mexico and Nate Wolters of South Dakota State headline the workout as possible first rounders. Also, an Isaiah Canaan workout update is included.

Understanding the meaning behind organic foods can be a little tricky. Did you know that there are different levels of "organic" produce? Follow our Organic Cheat Sheet when you're grocery shopping to help distinguish the difference.
13 thoughts on "Organic Cheat Sheet"
Found this to be very helpful when I'm in the grocery store!
Jenny at firstname.lastname@example.com
this is very interesting to know – thanks for the information
i had no idea that there was a difference between organic and 100% organic. and does that 5% difference matter at all?
I need to start looking for those label numbers. I read something similar to this before, but it's great having everything in an easy-to-read chart!
This is very helpful!
I didn't know there was a difference between 100% organic and organic. I will have to look closer at the labels the next time I am shopping. I also like the info on how to identify GMO products.
interesting info! very helpful
This is so helpful – I didn't know about the sticker codes at all! Thanks so much!
Good to know – thanks for sharing this useful information!
Thanks! I was wondering what conventionally organic meant!
Why do you start me out with 10 coupons when I havn't even clipped on to any and I only want 3 or 4 out of the list

In advance of new regulations requiring all travelers entering the U.S. to have a passport, the Travel Industry Association has launched a new Web site to ease the process of getting one.
"Our intent with this Web site is to educate the traveling public on the new regulations and to provide one-stop shopping for information on how to get a passport," stated Roger Dow, president at TIA in a press conference held December 11. Only 27 percent of Americans and about 40 percent of Canadians have passports, said Dow. "It's one thing to have the legislation," he added. "Now we have to get the word out."
As part of Congress's Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI), all travelers coming into the U.S.--including those from Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, as well as Americans returning home from those nations--will be required to have a passport. The regulations go into effect for air travelers on January 23, 2007. Travelers entering the U.S. by land and sea, will need passports by June 2009 at the latest.
The new Web site includes plain-language information about WHTI as well as where citizens of the U.S., Canada, and Mexico can get information about and applications for their respective passports. It is intended to supplement efforts by the U.S. Departments of State and Homeland Security to inform travelers about the new rules.

Mercedes men Niki Lauda and Toto Wolff are in support of the new double-points rule but add they should be handed out at more than just the season finale.
In a bid to ensure a dramatic finale for next year's Championship, Formula One has adopted the unusual policy of awarding double points for the final grand prix of the season.
The decision has not gone down well with many with drivers calling it "absurd" and "unfair."
However, bucking the trend, triple World Champ Lauda says it is a good call and should be implemented more often.
"More bonus points should be given in the last third of the season," he told SpeedWeek.
Meanwhile, Wolff added that "a (higher) distribution for regions or continents would make sense."

When Columbus returned to Spain with his stories of a gentle people living on fertile new lands, the result was a stampede the like of which was not seen again until the gold rush. Spanish, English and Portuguese explorers, slave-hunters and would-be colonisers were quick to follow his tracks.
As predicted, they found a people 'of a tractable, free and loving nature, without guile or treachery' (Sir Francis Drake), and a land 'the most plentiful, sweet, fruitful, and wholesome of all the world' (Sir Walter Raleigh). Though some were doubtless well-intentioned, these intruders did only harm. They brought axes and hoes to aid farming and guns to hunt bison, but they also brought deadly diseases and they brought whisky, which rapidly became the most effective bargaining tool and had a disastrous effect on a people unaccustomed to it. But perhaps most devastating of all was their failure to understand the relationship between the Indians and their land and the Indians' own inability to defend their way of life. 'Truly the Indians, whether civilised or wild, had no guile to match the white man's duplicity.'
Away back in that time - in 1492 - there was a man by the name of Columbus came from across the great ocean, and he discovered this country for the white man . . . What did he find when he first arrived here? Did he find a white man standing on this continent . . . I stood here first, and Columbus first discovered me' Chitto Harjo, Creek fullblood, 1906.
The Indians became subject people, ruled over by foreigners, whose policies were at best misguided and at worst savagely anti-Indian. Angie Debo's comprehensive and compassionate account provides an unrivalled history of American Indians from the dawn of their first contact with Europeans to the late twentieth century. It is a remarkable tale of a remarkable survival.

What is Focus Formula?
Focus Formula is a 100% safe, non-addictive, natural herbal remedy specifically formulated to relieve the symptoms of ADD/ADHD without the use of stimulants. Formulated by a clinical psychologist and our team of experts in natural medicine for both children and adults, Focus Formula has been used for many years to safely and effectively relieve the symptoms of ADHD without the unnecessary risk and possibly devastating side effects of psychiatric drugs.
Focus Formula is a complex calmative remedy that contains a selection of herbs known for their supportive function in improving concentration, memory, and attention span. This 100% natural remedy also calms mood swings, emotional outbursts, aggression, restlessness and overactive minds. Herbal Focus Formula is also a great complementary remedy to homeopathic BrightSpark™, taken for fast-acting relief of hyperactivity, distractibility and impulsiveness. Taken together, this herbal + homeopathic approach can safely and effectively provide the best results and manage symptoms of ADD/ADHD.
The formula remains true to the full spectrum method of herbal extraction, ensuring the bioavailability and balance of all the active ingredients contained in the remedy. This manufacturing method also significantly reduces the likelihood of side effects and ensures that all active ingredients are in perfect balance.
All Native Remedies products are manufactured in FDA-registered, GMP-certified facilities under the supervision of an expert team of herbalists, naturopaths, homeopaths and responsible pharmacists.
Focus Formula can make all the difference without the risk of addiction, drowsiness and other side effects. In combination with a healthy lifestyle and diet, Focus Formula helps improve alertness and mental focus for better results in the classroom and at work!
Focus & concentration with ADD/ADHD
Imagine living in a fast-moving kaleidoscope, where sounds, images, and thoughts are constantly shifting. Feeling easily bored, yet helpless to keep your mind on tasks you need to complete. Where you are so wrapped up in your thoughts that you don't notice when someone speaks to you.
For many people, this is what it's like to have Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). They may be unable to sit still, plan ahead, finish tasks, or be fully aware of what's going on around them. They have difficulties concentrating, a short attention span and are unable to focus.
This disorder can also cause mood swings, impulsiveness, and behavioral and social problems. It affects the person's relationships with others in addition to disrupting their daily life, consuming energy, and diminishing self-esteem. Children with ADD/ADHD have problems in the classroom and are often in trouble with teachers and parents.
Research is not conclusive on the exact causes of ADD/ADHD, although many studies suggest that genetics play a large role. However, like many other disorders, it is typically due to a combination of factors, which can include environmental factors, nutrition and social environment.
The natural way
Rather than prescribing strong and sometimes addictive psychiatric drugs, (Ritalin, Concerta, Adderall) naturopathic approaches take a more holistic look at the individual and take into account diet, lifestyle, personality type, surroundings and emotional factors.
Natural remedies are used to gently and effectively relieve the symptoms, while at the same time helping the person to heal and to reach a state of balance and health. The natural approach is less harmful and more thorough, instead of keeping the individual on psychiatric drugs for many years.
This is very important, especially in the case of children, because of the frequent side effects of prescription drugs and the risk of addiction.
What are the Ingredients?
Focus Formula is a 100% herbal formula and contains the following ingredients in therapeutic dosage: Extract of Nettle, Chamomile, Ginkgo biloba, Gotu kola, Green oats, Rooibos, Skullcap.
- Maidenhair tree (Ginkgo biloba) is an extremely effective herb used in traditional Chinese medicine and derived from one of the oldest trees on Earth. Recent studies have indicated its effectiveness in maintaining the functions of a healthy circulatory system, particularly in older patients with age-related memory loss and forgetfulness (Rai GS, Shovlin C, Wesnes KA. Curr Med Res Opin 1991;12[6]:350-355; Oken BS, Storzbach DM, Kaye JA. Arch Neurol. 1998;55:1409-1415; Le Bars PL, Kieser M, Itil KZ. Dement Geriatr Cogn Disord. 2000;11:230-237). Ginkgo biloba is one of the top-selling herbal medicines in Europe and is in the top five of all prescriptions written in France and Germany. Active ingredients include flavone glycosides (including ginkgolide), bioflavins, sitosterol, lactones and anthocyanin.
- Skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora) has been traditionally used as an effective nerve tonic. It helps to support the natural equilibrium normally present in the mind and contributes to the maintenance of a healthy attitude. Active ingredients include flavonoids, tannins, bitter, volatile oil and minerals. Scutellaria lateriflora was recently studied with regards to its supportive ability on relaxed mood and calmness. (Wolfson P, Hoffmann DL. "An investigation into the efficacy of Scutellaria lateriflora in healthy volunteers". Phytos Inc., San Anselmo, Calif., USA. Altern Ther Health Med. 2003 Mar-Apr;9(2):74-8.)
- German chamomile (Matricaria recutita) was traditionally used to help relieve occasional simple nervous tension. This herb helps to gently soothe and lessen frustration caused by common everyday overwork and fatigue. Active ingredients include volatile oil, flavonoids, valerianic acid, coumarins, tannins, salicylates and cyanogenic glycosides.
- Gotu kola (Centella asiatica) is found wild in moist areas throughout Africa and Asia. This herb is traditionally used as a tonic to support a healthy brain and nervous system. Centella asiatica is recommended to support brain functions such as mental clarity and a healthy memory, as well as to maintain a balanced mood. This medicinal herb is so highly respected in Ayurvedic medicine for its effect on the mind that it is even said to increase knowledge of Brahman, the supreme reality! Centella asiatica is also a favorite food of elephants and, as we all know, elephants never forget! Recent studies have suggested that Centella asiatica supports cerebral blood flow (CBF) and circulation in general (Pointel JP, Boccalon H, Cloarec M, Ledevehat C, Joubert M. Angiology 1987;38[1 Pt 1]:46-50), thereby allowing oxygen-rich blood to penetrate deep into the brain. Studies have also suggested that this herb may be beneficial as a mood tonic (Bradwejn J, Zhou Y, Koszycki D, Shlik J. J Clin Psychopharmacol. 2000;20[6]:680-684).
- Green oats (Avena sativa) is a general tonic traditionally used in folk medicine, as well as in modern herbalism. Avena sativa is invaluable in alleviating common nervous irritability. Active ingredients include saponins; flavonoids; minerals; alkaloids; steroidal compounds; and vitamins B1, B2, D and E.
- Extract of Nettle (stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) and/or dwarf nettle (Urtica urens)) is used both traditionally and in modern herbalism to maintain blood sugar levels already within the normal range. Urtica urens also helps to maintain the good disposition of the circulatory system in a healthy body. Active ingredients are histamine; formic acid; acetylcholine (important in maintaining healthy memory functioning); glucoquinones; minerals; vitamins A, B and C; and tannins.
- Rooibos (Aspalathus linearis) contains magnesium, zinc and iron, all of which assist in maintaining a healthy nervous system. Zinc and iron, in particular, support natural systemic balance in the brain, promoting standard consistency and normal functioning of the nervous system. In an animal study, the protective effects of Aspalathus linearis against damage to the central nervous system (CNS) were investigated. Chronic Rooibos Tea administration helped the animal body to naturally resist age-related accumulation of lipid peroxides in several regions of the rat brain (Inanami O, Asanuma T, Inukai N, Jin T, Shimokawa S, Kasai N, Nakano M, Sato F, Kuwabara M. "The suppression of age-related accumulation of lipid peroxides in rat brain by administration of Rooibos tea (Aspalathus linearis)". Faculty of Agriculture, Iwate University, Morioka, Japan. Neurosci Lett. 1995 Aug 18;196(1-2):85-8.).

How do I use Focus Formula?
Dilute drops in a small amount of water or juice and sip slowly. Alternatively, drop directly into the mouth with dropper.
Adults & Children 15+: Take 0.50 mL 3 times daily after meals.
Children 10-14: Take 0.25 mL 3 times daily after meals.
Children 3-9: Take 1 drop per year of age 3 times daily after meals.
NOTE: For ongoing support, it is recommended that Focus Formula be used concurrently with BrightSpark. Focus Formula (herbal) offers long-term support of attention and concentration, while BrightSpark (homeopathic) provides fast-acting relief from hyperactivity, distractibility and impulsiveness.
How long until I see results?
Like all good herbal tonics, an initial effect should be seen within a few days. With continued use, the benefits of Focus Formula should become more and more apparent over time. Some people take longer than others to respond, depending on various factors. In this case, perseverance is recommended, as with regular use, definite improvement should be noted within 3 to 6 weeks. However, some people respond more quickly.
Best results are achieved when Focus Formula is used consistently and the recommendations regarding diet are followed, especially in the case of younger children with vulnerable and developing brains.
Regular exercise, sufficient sleep, and a healthy, balanced diet will also contribute to good health and well-being.
Get optimum results with regular use
While conventional medicine works by often treating just the symptoms, natural medicine strives to create holistic balance in the body to support systemic health, relieve ailments, and help prevent future disease. Unlike pharmaceutical drugs, the natural ingredients in our remedies support overall health and functioning, rather than just suppressing symptoms.
People respond to natural medicine in different ways. Some of our satisfied customers experience immediate results, while many others have reported optimal benefits taking effect within 3-6 weeks. To ensure that you receive optimum results, it's important to take natural remedies as directed and remain consistent. You may also find that a smaller maintenance dose is beneficial for ongoing support. Many customers report taking a regular maintenance dose as part of a preventative program for continued health and well-being.
How long will a bottle last?
One bottle of Focus Formula at full adult dosage (0.50 mL 3 times daily) will last approximately 39 days. For children under the age of 15, one bottle will last longer, as fewer drops are used daily.
How has Focus Formula helped others?
Focus Formula has been used to help control, calm and soothe thousands of ADHD sufferers. Here is what some of them have to say:
"Hi guys, today is probably one of the happiest days of my life. My 8 year old son is on Focus Formula and BrightSpark. Doctors have said he has ADD, frankly I always suspected Aspergers. Anyway he has taken the above 2 for the past 5 days. His teacher left a message on my job and home phone until he finally got me on my cell phone during his lunch break, I was so scared that my child was ill or fell or something else negative. Needless to say he was calling to tell me he was "blown away in the difference" with my child. He was "attentive, involved, sharing, and focused" during class. He then asked me what was going on? I then mentioned your company and the items my son was taking. When I came home, I played the teacher's message over and over again. I was so happy I actually started to cry. I have to admit I was not a whole believer in non- conventional medicine, but that has certainly changed. I will very happily recommend Native Remedies to everyone. Thank you and God Bless You."
- Suzan C., NY, USA
"I started my 7-year old daughter out on Focus Formula after seeing that her behavior in school was not changing over the last couple of years. She would speak out in class, interrupt fellow students and the teachers. She would even push other students in school. After a few days on Focus I noticed a big difference. There was less speaking out, interrupting and pushing. I then put her on BrightSpark as well. I have no reports of any problems at school anymore! Her attention span is wonderful now, where prior to the remedies, she couldn't even watch an entire movie, now she does! Thank you so very much for your wonderful products. I thank God that I didn't have to take her to a doctor and have her put on chemical compounds that might have done more harm then good. You folks are a true Godsend!"
- Patricia, NJ, USA
"This is my second order for this product. I am 52 years old and have lived in a "brain fog" for years. And the older I got, the worse it was. I have tried everything under the sun and got no relief until I decided to try Focus Formula. I was looking for help for my son, who is 29 and ADHD and did not think of myself having this problem, until I read about it on your site. You described exactly how I felt all the time. So I ordered some to try. After three days, my mind was more alert than it has been for a long time."
- Theresa P.
"He recently started kindergarten and within the first two weeks was in trouble more times than not! We tried everything to get him back on track but no luck. That was until my husband found Focus Formula. My son who just turned 6 has been taking Focus for about a month now but within the first week, we noticed a remarkable change. Now we don't have the teacher calling us to tell us what he did wrong in school but to give us glowing reports of how wonderful it was to have him in school! Yesterday he came home with a WOW! Sticker on his shirt for such GREAT behavior at school. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I am telling everyone I know about these wonderful products. Native Remedies will have a customer for life!"
- Gerri, AK, USA
"My son was diagnosed with ADHD in the 2nd grade. We looked for an alternative to the meds Drs. use to drug and calm kids. We tried Focus Formula with him. The results are amazing. There are still moments when we have to make him sit and focus on what he is doing, but no more running around in class, kicking the next kid in their desk, blurting out answers. We love this medicine and have several friends who have also put their children on it from seeing the improvement in our child. Thanks from the whole family."
- Danette A.
"I have a 6 year old boy with ADHD and they had him on every possible medication and it was to the point where nothing was working and he would be up all night long for 3-4 nights in a row and he was getting in trouble at school daily. I even lost my job due to the amount of phone calls I received from his school. I started him on Focus Formula and BrightSpark about 2 weeks ago and at first thought it was going to be a waste of money but I was wrong. After about 3 days I got a whole new son. He's eating every time I turn around, already gaining weight, has a new personality without the "drugs" and his teacher even called to ask if I put him on something new and said he was completely different in class, almost as if she got a new student!!! This REALLY works, trust me, I'm the most skeptical person out there and here I am writing my very own testimonial!! It's a miracle, I have my son back and he has his "mind" back. Thank you!!!"
- April, PA, USA
"Our son was diagnosed when he was 7 with ADHD. After trying many other methods that did not seem to work, we put him on Concerta. It helped somewhat, but we still had challenges with school. We put him on Focus Formula four months ago before he entered high school, and what a difference! He has grown, put on weight and sleeps! There is a spark in his eyes that has been missing for a long time. His true personality has come alive and he has several friends and is very social. What a positive thing for our family. I recommend Native Remedies products every week to someone. Thank you!"

The picture was very good, but everybody looked 20-30 pounds overweight! The default aspect setting was FULL and the picture filled my entire widescreen (16:9).
I thought perhaps that I should change the aspect setting to 4:3 (old standard screen) so the bodies would not be stretched wider. It made no difference; i.e., no weight loss.
No matter what I did, people's bodies looked wider. I think they looked shorter, too.
I'm using the DVDR with a Panasonic TH-42PZ700U (plasma HDTV), also new. The DVDR is connected to the TV via an HDMI cable.
Any help out there? I'd like to see a slimmer Scarlett Johanson, please.

About the Book
The book selection for the 2013/2014 academc year is The Shallows What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains by Nicholar Carr.
Excerpt from W.W. Norton, Inc Book Review:
"Is Google making us stupid?" When Nicholas Carr posed that question, in a celebrated Atlantic Monthly cover story, he tapped into a well of anxiety about how the Internet is changing us. He also crystallized one of the most important debates of our time: As we enjoy the Net's bounties, are we sacrificing our ability to read and think deeply?
Now, Carr expands his argument into the most compelling exploration of the Internet's intellectual and cultural consequences yet published. As he describes how human thought has been shaped through the centuries by "tools of the mind"—from the alphabet to maps, to the printing press, the clock, and the computer—Carr interweaves a fascinating account of recent discoveries in neuroscience. Our brains, the historical and scientific evidence reveals, change in response to our experiences. The technologies we use to find, store, and share information can literally reroute our neural pathways.

Dayton's Jonathon Joyner hit a game-tying 3-pointer with five seconds left and Sparks coach Dan Schreiber ran a few feet onto the floor near midcourt to call timeout in a raucous loud Dayton gym after the clutch trey.
Schreiber was given a technical foul for running onto the court and Sparks did not get the ball back until .9 seconds remained and Dayton had already downed three free throws.
"When the ball went through I was yelling timeout. It was so loud. They (officiating crew) even addressed it before the game. The game was going to be loud and it's a small gym. The crowd is really loud here," Schreiber said. "That's why I yelled I want five (seconds) on the clock … I turned around to address the kids, because I'm going to timeout, I need as much time as I can and (they gave me a technical foul)."
The Railroaders tried to inbound the ball with .9 seconds left, trailing by three. Dayton jumped in front of a half-court pass and the vociferous Dayton student section stormed the court.
Isaiah Campbell (23 points) scored 19 points in the first half to put Sparks in front 31-16 at the half. He had 15 in the second quarter alone.
After torching the Dust Devils in the first half, Campbell was double- and triple-teamed in the second half.
Led by Austin Fletcher's 15 second-half points, Dayton took the lead for the first time since the early going with 2:23 remaining in regulation on a Fletcher drive to the hoop. Fletcher finished with a team-high 20 points.
Campbell hit a pair of free throws on Sparks' next possession to tie the game at 44. The senior hit two more free throws with 1:12 left to put Sparks back in front 46-44.
"You could tell in the second half they tried to double- and triple- team him (Campbell) so that's just a coaching respect issue in regards to, we have to stop this kid," Schreiber said.
Dayton and Sparks both missed a pair of free throws on their following possessions before Victor Trinidad (six points) hit 1-of-2 freebies to put Sparks up 47-44 with 10.1 seconds, setting the stage for the late-game drama.
Sparks fell to 1-8, 1-1 in league meetings one night after picking up its first win of the season (52-49) against Truckee. Dayton improved to 6-1, 1-0 in league decisions.
"We are probably one of the teams that has the most room for improvement," Schreiber said. "We're young and we are starting to catch onto things. So that's exciting."
Dayton trimmed the 15-point halftime to deficit to 31-29 with just more than a minute remaining in the third quarter before the Railroaders went on a 9-0 burst in the final minute.
Schreiber took full responsibility for the technical foul in the game's final seconds.
The Railroaders will get to enjoy the holiday season with some down time before playing at Lowry Jan. 3.

Mint Jeans - - they're all the rage!! I had wanted some for a while, but then I went to SNAP and everyone was wearing them (or so it seemed) and then I knew that I HAD to have them!
Of course I looked all around and they were no where to be found. Luckily I am a facebook fan of Quincee's Boutique and they posted that a new shipment of them had arrived. I don't live anywhere near that store, but no worries you can just email them to order. They helped me pick a size and mailed them out THAT DAY to me. Now that's awesome customer service!! Check out their FB page and follow along to see great style ideas.
I've seen a few things on Pinterest about how to wear Mint Jeans, but those gals always look so great - like model-great. So I thought I'd put together something like "how a real person can wear mint jeans". Just so you know, this is the most work ever I've put into a What I Wore Wednesday post - creating a photo collage, wearing mint jeans every other day, etc - phew! Normally I just dump in a few pictures into my WIWW posts and call it good. Anyways, here we go....
It's kind of hard to tell in this picture, but this top is kind of crazy - it has a bunch of twists around the bust and a flap thing that hangs down and the whole thing kind of billows out. I thought a top in the plain color of white but with all those factors added some visual interest that helped balance the fun-ness of the mint jeans.
Next up, a casual look with the mint jeans - just a gray striped tshirt, gray TOMS, hair in a ponytail, etc. I liked knowing that I could dress-down in mint jeans, but still look fun and stylish.
Coral - Tangerine Tango - light orange - whatever you want to call the color of 2012, it goes great with mint! I know this picture is kind of off and blury - preschool photographers try their best :)
Look at this one - mixing trends! So cutting edge :) I am wearing a cream lace top (with a white shirt underneath) and have pops of yellow. This is what I wore out to dinner for our anniversary. I thought it was a little dressy because of the lace, but not too much so....
Ah, the inescapable denim shirt - you know I'm growing to love it so of course I had to try it with the mint jeans. I think it really worked! I tried it with a belt and without, and they gave 2 different looks. I think I lean towards the more causal look without the belt.
So that's my recap on different ways I've tried to wear my mint jeans. I really love them!! They're fun and make me feel like I might actually be in style when I wear them.
I put together the picture collage in case some of you pin this to pinterest and want all the pictures in one spot.... (have I told you how hilarious it is to me when I see myself on Pinterest for "fashion" posts - I feel like I'm normally fashionless!)
So, do you have a favorite "look" with the mint jeans?? Any suggestions on other looks that I should try??

Why your inbox is being flooded by LinkedInMay 10, 2013: 2:22 PM ET
Many users describe a surge in activity on the social network. Truth is, it's been a long-time coming.
FORTUNE -- What's up with LinkedIn? Suddenly it's everywhere. Last week, as I finished up teaching a dozen masters students in publishing, I told them to keep in touch. Nobody called. No one emailed. Seven of them requested to connect with me on LinkedIn.
What's more, lately my inbox has been teeming with social notifications beyond the simple "please join my network" request. Friends and colleagues are "endorsing" me for skills I haven't even thought up or "congratulating" me when I add a new job ("adjunct professor") to my profile. And then there's LinkedIn Today, a social newsreader that provides some a better-cultivated deep-read of the pertinent news in my industry than the soon-to-be-defunct Google Reader (GOOG) I once curated myself.
I'm not imagining things; the numbers prove it: In the past year, LinkedIn (LNKD) has seen a 24% grown in number of monthly visitors in the United States to 46.3 million -- and that's not counting the increasing number of folks who use the service on mobile devices. Even more interesting, the service has seen a 52% spike in time spent on the site -- in March, users spent an average 1,072 minutes on LinkedIn.com.
MORE: General Motors' $6 billion truck
All of this has happened while the unemployment rates have dropped over the past year. A decade ago when LinkedIn got its start, the social network was largely understood to be a database for crowdsourced digital resumes; for years, it survived because people turned to it when they were looking for jobs. These days, however, it's easier to buy the marketing promise that LinkedIn is more than a job board; it has become a useful tool for managing professional life.
While many of LinkedIn's users have experienced that change seemingly overnight this spring, in truth it's the product of a rigorous approach to development on the part of LinkedIn's executives. Shortly after the company's 2011 initial public offering, LinkedIn's engineering team embarked upon "Project Inversion," a two-month process in which product development largely stopped and the company rebuilt its infrastructure from the bottom up. In a February 7 earning call, CEO Jeff Weiner explained, "Our success enabled us to materially accelerate the speed with which we released new products from once every two weeks for the entire site to as much as twice per day for each individual product."
The result: During the last four months of 2012, LinkedIn introduced more new products than any other quarter in the company's history -- and things continue to accelerate. Notable products include a new version of the LinkedIn profile that is called the "professional profile of record" and a new version of the "people you may know" tool. Perhaps in result, LinkedIn said it saw invitations increase 80% from 2011-2012; that translates into a lot more "join my network" invitations in your box.
MORE: So who's making money publishing on the web?
Then there's the new "endorsement" tool that, much like a game, lets you endorse people in your network as possessing skills that LinkedIn suggests. (So far, 28 people in my network have endorsed me for journalism; more perplexing, eight have endorsed me for press releases. I've never written a press release.) At the end of its fourth quarter, LinkedIn reported that its members had generated nearly a billion endorsements in the four months since the tool went live.
All of this activity is useful -- to LinkedIn and to use -- because it turns unstructured data (what I know I'm good at) into structured data (what you know I'm good at). And as more of our colleagues join it and use it, it becomes a more useful tool for communications. Like, say, reliably keeping in touch with my former students.

13-Year-Old Busted After Using Mom's Credit Card – Alpharetta-Milton Patch
A Milton 13-year-old juvenile allegedly used his mother's Kindle and her credit card to spend more than $3,000 on Amazon.com in a 30-minute period on Sept. 18. Milton police took him to a youth detention facility.
The juvenile said he left school early because he was sick. Once home, he copied his mother's credit card information after taking the card out of her purse. He then used her Kindle to make numerous purchases.

Pizza Delivery Man Pursues Robbery Suspects – Stone Mountain-Redan Patch
When a delivery man was robbed by the people who called in an order for pizzas and chicken wings, he decided to take matters into his own hands and pursue the suspects to Redan Middle School, even after one of them brandished a gun.
According to the DeKalb County police report, the incident on Friday, Sept. 14 began when the employee from the Pizza Hut at 1130 S. Hairston Road in unincorporated Stone Mountain delivered $35 worth of take-out to a vacant home in unincorporated Lithonia.
The employee met the first suspect outside the front door and handed him the food. The suspect told the delivery man he was going to get the money, and instructed him to wait outside.
The delivery man walked to the front door and saw a second suspect standing near the rear door holding a handgun. A third suspect was holding a large wooden stick, and a fourth suspect was standing near the others, the report states.

AS a life-long resident, I know this is not the worst winter we've had. But the new city management is so inept that they are lost and confused everytime they have to make a decision. Maybe we need local people to manage the city?

I agree. This amount of snow has taken the city by surprise. I mean, its Iowa, you'd think they'd know how to deal with snow. But apparently, not.

I live a street over from this guy and we haven't gotten mail since 3/7 either. We have used a crowbar to try to break up the ice. Only helped a little. I think it's a stalemate between the city and post office with residents stuck on the middle.

SecureCam is a video surveillance system with a nice GUI. It supports multiple camera and video file inputs. It detects motion in input video using fast algorithms. Alarm notification is provided by email, alarm sound, and video recording. Currently, only a Windows installer is provided, but the source can be compiled on Linux.
Qt-based library with functionality to create highly efficient and fully graphical applications, oriented to computer vision, image processing, and scientific computation. The library features an homogeneous and well documented object-oriented API, with wrapping methods for high performance functionality from libraries such as OpenCV, GSL, CGAL, IPP, BLAS, LAPACK, or Octave library.
Darwin Wallet enables blind and visually impaired users to quickly recognize paper money. It uses the phone's camera to detect currency denominations for U.S., U.K., Canadian, European Union, and Australian bills. Simply hold the bill in front of the phone's camera, and the app will speak its value. The app uses the phone's camera and OpenCV (via Android NDK) to analyze and identify the currency image.
OpenALPR is an automated license plate recognition library that analyzes images and identifies license plates. The output is the text representation of any license plate characters found in the image. It uses OpenCV computer vision libraries to recognize and analyze the plate images, and the Tesseract OCR library and a specially trained character set to recognize characters.
SysopView shows information in a visually attractive way, like computers in movies do. The idea is that it can show information relevant to system administrators non-comprehensible for non-technical personnel, while still looking attractive even if you don't know what is shown. The current version can show nagios status data, webcam streams (mjpeg, jpeg, and video4Linux), and VNC, has a built-in terminal emulator in which regular text applications can be run, can sniff the network (including remotely) and dissect streams and show pictures which are sniffed, can show external bitmaps (from, for example, mrtg and rrdtool), and can scroll text (currently showing output of rssfeeds).
Libcvautomation is a GUI automation and testing tool based on image recognition and response. This program was designed as a direct replacement for Sikuli and Xpresser. Each solution had large problems with crashing, and both refused to function on Red Hat Linux and Ubuntu 12.04. The author really liked the way each of these programs approached GUI automation, but they simply didn't work. As such, a simple library was designed to integrate OpenCV and XTest, which can be used by BASH to drive GUI testing and automation, and works on both new and old Linux distributions.
Trusion is a physical intrusion system that uses users' Webcams to detect motion, which serves as an indicator to start recording video. Optionally, users can choose to have the program upload the videos to an FTP server in the unfortunate event your computer gets stolen or the perpetrator manages to delete the user's local video files. This is a very new project that is enthusiastically welcoming new contributors and their ideas. This project was build using Qt and OpenCV.

Wolverton recovering from June flood damageWolverton, MN (WDAY TV) - By the looks of it now, you'd never imagine the sheer panic sweeping through the small community of Wolverton back in late June.
By: Kay Cooley, WDAY
Wolverton, MN (WDAY TV) - By the looks of it now, you'd never imagine the sheer panic sweeping through the small community of Wolverton back in late June.
Lynn Grohman- Lost Basement: "Well, we had a downpour."
Grohman: "It was basically a nightmare."
All starting with a bunch of water…
Kevin Maesse- City Engineer: "Ten inches of rain in one shot is almost unheard of."
It's been about two and a half months since the entire town was washed over, with water rushing through roads like this one, going right into people's homes.
Grohman: "We had water coming in through some of our windows, like falling in."
Lynn Grohman and her family lost their entire basement.
Grohman: "Four kids were upstairs with us. They actually had to sleep in the church for part of the summer."
Ever since the storm, the entire community has been acting fast to rebuild; refilling washed-out roadways and removing all the debris.
Maesse: "There's a lot of gravel and rip-rap washed into the coulie that needs to be cleaned up."
All the while, meeting with FEMA and hoping for funding headed their way from the State Capital to cover roughly $32,000 in damages…
Grohman: "That would be great. We would be so thankful."
Maesse: "What do you do? You know, you fix what you can and just go on. It's one thing you hope you'll never see again."
18 different counties with June flood damage throughout the state will get money from this special one-day session with Minnesota's share coming in at $4.5 million.

TALLADEGA, Ala. — The perfect storm was shaping up as the lead pack shuffled into the last lap Sunday at Talladega.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. was second, his front bumper on top of leader Jamie McMurray. The NASCAR Nation looked on with great anticipation, ready to roar for their favorite son.
Earnhardt started to make a move on McMurray but then looked in his rear-view mirror and saw the pack slowing down. It wasn't the infamous Big One — just a two-car dustup between Austin Dillon and Casey Mears — but it may as well been for Earnhardt.
Game over, sir.
McMurray won under caution on the final lap, and the frustration of Earnhardt and his legion of loyal fans will spill over for at least another week.
"It's frustrating because the worst part about it really is you go home and you'll spend months thinking about what you could have done to not be second," Earnhardt said, resigned to the quirky fortunes of Talladega.
Earnhardt now has four second-place finishes this Cup season, and extended his winless streak here that dates to 2004.
The news was not all lousy for the Hendrick Motorsports team, though, as Jimmie Johnson went from four points down to four points ahead of Matt Kenseth in the scramble for the Chase for the Cup title. Barring a bizarre turn of events for Johnson and Kenseth, no other driver has a realistic shot at the title with four races left on the schedule.
"It was an incredibly disappointing day," said Kenseth, frustrated that not enough cars tried to make a run at the bottom of the track in the final laps. "They must be still thinking about it because no one made one."
Johnson finished 13th and Kenseth 20th, and Johnson picked up an precious point by leading the most laps, 47. But at least they leave here with their championship hopes intact. The threat of a multi-car pileup always looms large in Talladega, but this was one of those deals comparable to a few raindrops in anticipation of a thunderstorm.
The last 10 laps were mostly single-file racing, with no one making a significant run and uneventful until Ricky Stenhouse Jr., running in the top 5, tried to make a move as the final lap approached.
But Stenhouse lost control on the second turn and got tangled with Dillon, who likely would have lined up with Earnhardt to try to make a run at McMurray. Dillon ended up collecting Casey Mears, and Dillon went airborne to create the most indelible image of the day.
But the Big Picture left McMurray all alone, coasting to victory. McMurray said he spent the last 20 laps looking at his rear-view mirror for a move that never came.
"I was getting ready to start swerving to try to get in front of him," he said. "I don't know. It would have been interesting to see — if he could have broken the plane of our bumper — where we would have ended up."
It was McMurray's first Cup victory since 2010 and brought tears of joy to a man who risks getting labeled the "Dick Vermeil of NASCAR" for his emotional outbreaks after winning.
It's OK to cut him some slack. McMurray celebrated in Victory Lane with his wife Christy and almost 3-year-old son Carter and 8-month-old daughter Hazel. The winner had to bribe Carter with M&Ms to get him to smile for the cameras.
"To have that with my family was really cool," McMurray said.
Earnhardt played it as best he could, considering he was in good shape in second for the closing laps, but all that control vanished in his rear-view mirror.
"It's all kind of a blur as to how we ended up in second, but I had no reason to make a move before the last lap being in second place," Earnhardt said. "I was in perfect position to be patient and wait as long as I wanted to. ... I knew that I had everything to lose and really one spot to gain by going early, so I waited until the last lap."
Too late. The NASCAR Nation joins Junior in the lament of the one that got away.
