Old adage applies - buyer beware
Johnny: "Sally, I read that everything on the Internet is true."
Sally: "Really, where did you read that, Johnny?"
Johnny: "On the Internet."
The Internet, by some, has been labeled the absolute best and worst thing that's ever happened. It's the best, because of the multitude of information at your fingertips. Worst, because, unfortunately, all that information is not accurate.
Combine this with the fact that many of us are now using the Internet as a source to buy items that we think might bring us a cheaper price. Unfortunately, unknowing consumers can be swindled. Sometimes just your simple reply on Internet can tip a con-artist off to your ignorance as to how the system works.
Because of Internet, we don't know if a business is being run by grade school students in their basements (dogs barking in the background are dead giveaways) or are legitimately licensed corporations.
And a big concern is service after the sale. If your item is not working properly, and you call the toll free number to get help, only to find it's been disconnected, then what? This may be a good reason to deal with someone in a local or regional area that has been in business for awhile, and established a reputation of good service and support after the sale. If you want to continue doing business on Internet, do your due diligence and check out who you're dealing with.
If you don't know how to do that, check with your kids or grandkids. They'll show you how.
* * *
On another note: It appears in the KPERS presentations this year, the representatives from Topeka would have you believe that if you take a lump sum, which you have the opportunity to take up to 50 percent, that KPERS will withhold 20 percent for taxes. This is partly accurate, if you take the money in cash.
The rest of the story is that you can implement a traditional IRA through a direct rollover with no tax consequence. As KPERS goes further and further in the hole, obviously, they do not want to encourage anyone to take the lump-sum option. Your decision will depend on if you believe the system will remain solvent for your lifetime or not. Fifty percent of something is always better than 100 percent of nothing. However, this is an individual decision that depends on your particular circumstances.
Should you decide to implement this direct rollover, make sure you inform your accountant of this rollover, as the traditional IRA will maintain its state tax-free status.
* * *
If you are receiving a tax refund from the government this year, that means you lent the U.S. government your money interest free for up to a year. This is sometimes the only way some can have a disciplined savings plan. Unfortunately, if you don't pay your taxes on time, the IRS does not return the favor.
This is a very inefficient way of saving. Please talk to your adviser about more efficient ways of implementing a disciplined savings plan.
* * *
In this sue-happy society, it might be wise to implement a personal umbrella policy if you have assets that need to be protected from lawsuits. It could be that a change in your home and auto deductibles may spring enough dollars to add this very important coverage without any additional out-of-pocket costs.
* * *
Long-term care insurance is often a viable part of a comprehensive financial plan. However, not everyone is a candidate for long-term care insurance. If you don't have ample assets to protect, or have no interest in leaving anything behind to another generation, you could very well not be a candidate for this kind of protection.
It would be wise to visit with your adviser to assess your individual circumstances.
* Next month: Living for today, living for tomorrow. Pay yourself first.

Hands down, Schmidt among greatest ever
By Craig Muder
His hands settled around the shaft of the golf club, then drew back for his practice swing.
The power of that swing — the legendary power of Michael Jack Schmidt — was still apparent, even if the familiar baseball bat had been replaced by the metal wood.
Those hands — an unforgettable instinct.
Schmidt, who will turn 60 in less than three weeks, is still fit and trim. The once-red hair is now gray, but the body looks to be not far removed from his playing days with the Phillies. At the very least, it would be easy to picture Schmidt on the Champions Tour.
The Hall of Fame third baseman was in Cooperstown this weekend, and on Tuesday he teed off at the Pro-Am for the Otesaga Hotel Seniors Open. Schmidt served as the celebrity host of the tournament, which benefits Pathfinder Village, located in nearby Edmeston, N.Y., a residential community dedicated to children and adults with Down syndrome. The tournament also benefits the Baseball Hall of Fame.
"No charity I've ever been associated with is more deserving of a tournament like this," said Schmidt of Pathfinder Village. "I've played in this tournament a couple times now, and it's always great to come back."
Schmidt spent 18 seasons with the Philadelphia Phillies from 1972-89, winning eight National League home run titles and three NL MVP awards.
But his greatest thrill as a pro athlete just might have come on the famous Leatherstocking Golf Course in Cooperstown.
"I'm not playing in the Seniors Open this year, but I did a couple years ago and actually finished third in my flight. I got a check for $700. When you're up against competition like this — great senior pros from around the country — that's pretty good."
Craig Muder is director of communications for the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

Hobbes & Machiavelli
The difference between Thomas Hobbes and Niccolò Machiavelli's treatments of the right of the sovereign to rule over its subjects involves two distinct theoretical practices. The simplest way of expressing this is by noting that Hobbes is compelled to take a long philosophical detour, to the state of nature, to show that an act of consent legitimates power and bans dissent. Machiavelli's argument is simpler because it does not require this philosophical detour; he instead assumes that there is power and concerns himself with how politics is practiced. 'As my intention is to write something useful for discerning minds,' Machiavelli writes in The Prince, 'I find it more fitting to seek the truth of the matter rather than imaginary conceptions.'[1] Hobbes' state of nature is precisely the sort of imaginary conception that Machiavelli thinks can only distract from his argument.
The irony is that Hobbes agrees that imaginary conceptions distract from the truth of matters. 'They that make little, or no enquiry into the naturall cause of things, yet from the feare that proceeds from the ignorance it selfe, of what it is that hath the power to do them much good or harm,' he writes, 'are enclined to suppose, and feign unto themselves severall kinds of Powers Invisible; and to stand in awe at their own imaginations.'[2] The only invisible power that Hobbes allows is God. He argues that we are naturally inclined to seek out the causes of the effects that we perceive in the world, but that we come up against an unthinkable primary cause and name it God.[3] However, he argues that those who don't investigate the causes of perceived effects invent superabundant invisible powers, 'making the creatures of their own fancy, their Gods'.[4]
The state of nature is a superabundant invisible power. Hobbes argues that just beneath the rule of law is a visceral fear of the harm others would do us in the absence of a sovereign.[5] Hobbes names this fear the state of nature. He argues that a sovereign is legitimate just so long as it secures us against it. The state of nature isn't a real place, or even a possible place: it is the content of a fear. Hobbes defines fear as 'Aversion, with opinion of Hurt from the object' and distinguishes aversion from hate by the absence or presence of an object.[6] Fear involves precisely the absence of its object. We do not need to know the state of nature in order to fear it.[7] Hobbes calls it an 'Inference, made from the Passions'.[8]
C. B. Macpherson argues that Hobbes' entire philosophical detour, his inference from the passions, is an abstraction from the social anxieties of a rising capitalist society.[9] Hobbes suggests this himself when he asks readers that are sceptical of the state of nature to consider their society instead.[10] Louis Althusser summarises: 'all society is based on fear, Hobbes says, the factual proof being that you have keys.'[11] Hobbes himself provides the counter claim to this abstraction: 'If we could suppose a great Multitude of men to consent in the observation of … Lawes of Nature, without a common power to keep them all in awe, there neither would be, nor need to be any Civill Government, or Common-wealth at all.'[12] There is a need for sovereignty because if there is not a common power to overawe a society it will quickly descend into the state of nature. But the fear that it will thus descend is precisely an imaginary conception, a superstition, an invisible power that is confected to stand in for the actual practice of politics.
Machiavelli responds directly to the question of 'invisible powers' in The Prince. In the chapter on ecclesiastical principalities he says, 'since they are under the guidance of a superior power that the mind of man cannot fathom, I will not discuss them,' and continues: 'For as they are exalted and maintained by God, it would be the act of a presumptuous and audacious man to do so.'[13] He then proceeds to discuss them, saying that 'it does not seem to me redundant to commit the essentials of this situation to memory.'[14] He flags Hobbes's detour through superstition, but deflects it. The implication is that God hasn't secured the papal state, but that the pope has been a skillful enough prince to make it a genuine temporal power in Italy. Rather than detouring through theology, he concerns himself with how politics is practiced.
Machiavelli's overriding concern, in both The Prince and The Discourses, is with a political practice that can lead to stability. In The Discourses he introduces a conception of the cycle of governments that describes history as the generation of principalities, monarchies or democracies and their corruption into tyrannies, oligarchies or anarchies.[15] Machiavelli calls the motor of this cycle 'the changeability of fortune'; 'variations of government among men are due to chance,' he says.[16] The lessons of The Prince aim to teach the new prince of a new principality that conditions do not remain the same and that the skill of a prince is precisely their capacity to master change. 'I conclude that when Fortune changes and men rigidly continue in their ways,' he writes, 'they will flourish so long as Fortune and their ways are in accord, but they will come to ruin the moment these are in discord.'[17]
If the play of skill and fortune is Machiavelli's first lesson, then his second lesson is the need to secure the faith of the people. 'A wise prince must find a way in which his citizens will consider him and the state to be indispensable in all circumstance and at all times,' he writes. 'Then his citizens will always be faithful.'[18] Machiavelli prescribes the institution of and obedience to good laws as this 'way'. This could be interpreted as an argument about legitimacy. However, the faith of the people doesn't legitimate the right of the sovereign to rule over its subjects. The right of the sovereign derives either from hereditary rule or from the seizure of power. Instead Machiavelli's reference to the faith of the people refer to his overriding concern for the stability of states. He argues that locating power with the people is preferable to locating it with either the nobility or a prince. The nobility creates instability because it wants to oppress and command the people for its own gain, 'for men are inclined to think that they cannot hold securely what they possess unless they get more at others' expense'.[19] He argues that people and princes can equally be variable, fickle and ungrateful or stable, prudent and grateful but that the people in the end are a surer bet. 'For if to cure the malady of the populace a word suffices and a sword is needed to cure that of a prince,' he writes, 'no one will fail to see that the greater the cure, the greater the fault.'[20]
In the end, Machiavelli argues, what the people want is stability. As in Hobbes, the people desire security of industry and life.[21] It could be argued correctly that both Machiavelli and Hobbes are responding to the historical fact of war as the constant disruption of industry and life. In Machiavelli's lifetime Italy's city-states were regularly at war and both France and Spain invaded. Hobbes fled England during the English Civil War that culminated in the execution of the sovereign, Charles I. But this doesn't explain their different treatments of the right of the sovereign to rule over its subjects. They respond differently to war. Hobbes cannot find a basis for his Royalism in the bloody clash of Roundheads and Cavaliers and develops an imaginary conception of the origins of power to justify absolute sovereignty and to deny dissent. Machiavelli, in contrast, has no interest in the origins of power. It is instead a fact of his historical conjuncture. His manual, The Prince, doesn't address the question of legitimacy precisely because the answer to the question has no bearing on a prince's capacity to dominate change, or fortune.[22]

Erythema nodosum is an inflammatory disorder that involves tender, red bumps (nodules ) under the skin.
In about half of cases, the exact cause of erythema nodosum is unknown.
Some cases may occur with infections. Some of the more common infections are:
Erythema nodosum may occur with sensitivity to certain medications, including:
Sometimes, erythema nodosum may occur during pregnancy.
Other disorders linked to this condition include leukemia, lymphoma, sarcoidosis, rheumatic fever , Bechet's disease, and ulcerative colitis .
The condition is more common in women than it is in men.
Erythema nodosum is most common on the shins. It may also occur on other areas of the body such as buttocks, calves, ankles, thighs, and arms.
The lesions begin as flat, firm, hot, red, painful lumps that are about an inch across. Within a few days, they may become purplish in color. Over several weeks, the lumps fade to a brownish, flat patch.
Other symptoms may include:
Your doctor can diagnose this condition by looking at your skin. Tests that may be done include:
The underlying infection, drug, or disease should be identified and treated.
Treatment may include:
Erythema nodosum is uncomfortable, but not dangerous in most cases.
Symptoms usually go away within about 6 weeks, but may return.
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of erythema nodosum.

Hodgkin's lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system drains excess fluid from the blood and protects against infection. Hodgkin's lymphoma is different from other forms of lymphoma .
Cancer occurs when cells in the body—in this case a type of white blood cell called lymphocyte—divide without control or order. If cells keep dividing uncontrollably when new cells are not needed, a mass of tissue forms, called a growth or tumor. The term cancer refers to malignant tumors, which can invade nearby tissue and can spread to other parts of the body. A benign tumor does not invade or spread.
The cause of Hodgkin's lymphoma is unknown. It is likely related to complex genetic and environmental factors that lead to changes of the immune system. There are some compelling pieces of data to suggest that it is caused by a virus. The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been considered.
Risk Factors
Factors that increase your chance of getting Hodgkin's lymphoma include:
- Sex: male
- Ages: 15-40 and over 55
- Family history
- History of infectious mononucleosis or infection with Epstein-Barr virus, which causes mononucleosis
- Weakened immune system, including infection with HIV or the presence of AIDS
Symptoms include:
- Painless swelling of the lymph nodes in the neck, armpit, or groin
- Persistent fatigue
- Night sweating
- Coughing
- Unexplained fever
- Weight loss
- Itching
- Decreased appetite
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done, paying particular attention to your lymph nodes. Most enlarged or swollen lymph nodes result from infection, not lymphomas. If infection is suspected, you may be given medication and instructed to return for a follow-up appointment.
If swelling persists, your doctor may order a lymph node biopsy . The biopsy results will show whether there is cancer, and if so, the type and extent of the cancer that is present.
Treatment of Hodgkin's disease depends on the stage of the disease. The stage identifies how far the cancer has spread and what organs are affected. In general, this means that staging tests to evaluate the condition of the lymph nodes in the body, the liver, spleen, and bone marrow must be done.
Your bodily fluids may be tested. This can be done with blood tests.
Your internal bodily structures may need to be viewed. This can be done with:
Abdominal surgery may be needed to remove the spleen and to biopsy the liver. This is not common because of the accuracy of noninvasive scans.
Hodgkin's lymphoma is generally considered one of the more curable forms of cancer. Treatment options include:
Chemotherapy and External Radiation Therapy
Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy may be given in many forms, including pill, injection, and via a catheter. The drugs enter the bloodstream and travel through the body killing mostly cancer cells, but also some healthy cells.
In radiation therapy , radiation is directed at the tumor from a source outside the body to kill the cancer cells.
In many cases, both chemotherapy and radiation are used to cure a patient of Hodgkin's lymphoma. The choice of treatments will be based on:
- Extent of disease—the stage
- Location of the affected lymph node(s)
- Many other patient-related features that your doctor will discuss with you
It is important that you be seen by both the medical oncologist to discuss chemotherapy and the radiation oncologist to discuss the radiation therapy. The best treatment results come from a discussion and integrated approach.
If the cancer does not respond to chemotherapy or radiation, the outcome is usually very poor. There are some treatment options available, including:
- Bone marrow transplantation —Bone marrow is removed. Large doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy are then applied to kill the cancer cells. After treatment, the bone marrow is replaced via a vein. Transplanted bone marrow may be the patient's bone marrow that was treated to remove cancer cells or marrow from a healthy donor.
- Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation —Stem cells are very immature cells that produce blood cells. They are removed from circulating blood before chemotherapy or radiation treatment and then replaced after treatment.
Splenectomy is the surgical removal of the spleen, an organ that is part of the lymphatic system. In some cases, splenectomy is recommended in people who have lymphoma.

A needle is put into skin sore or skin abscess , which may contain fluid or pus. The fluid may be examined under a microscope. It may also be put in a lab dish (called a culture medium) and watched for growth of bacteria or fungi.
You do not need to prepare for this test.
The health care provider may inject a numbing medicine (anesthetic) into the skin before inserting the needle if the sore is deep.

Committee on Executive Reorganization Executive Summary Recommendations on Labor and Economic Development I. Problem The State 1s Involved 1n many community and economic development programs 1n various capacities and through many different departments and agencies of the State. With the increasing desire of local elected officials to harness and coordinate some of these State resources to help their communities, the deficiencies o of the current organizational structure are more apparent. '** Currently, 1f a local official or any citizen of the mmm State is Interested 1n what resources the State can provide to help their community they must contact several state agencies that have O very narrowly defined programs. If a local official wants to get the programs to work 1n harmony with local policy, exceptional effort O 1s required. The process becomes very frustrating and gives rise ^ to the call that "government 1s too big" and that the "right hand doesn't know what the left hand 1s doing." O in Recommendation W The Committee on Executive Reorganization 1s proposing _ that many programs relating to community and economic development be combined and placed within a single department that would Include _ community facilities and technical assistance to local officials and their communities as well as economic and cultural development. Problem Another problem 1s 1n the area of employment and training programs 1n the State. Due to a variety of funding sources from the federal government, the State has developed a "patchwork quilt" . of state agencies to administer those programs. Utahns wishing to become enrolled 1n such programs must "shop around" from agency to agency 1n an attempt to see which program they are eligible for. If the State 1s committed to a philosophy of allowing every person who wishes to become self-sufficient by obtaining employment, to attain the skills to do so, then 1t 1s Important to fashion a system that Is easily accessed, coordinated and which most efficiently trains the person and helps get them Into an employed position. \

Solar Leaders Talk Future of Financing and Policy at COSEIA
During the introductory keynote of the Solar Power Colorado conference last week, a group of solar thought leaders discussed what would happen in 2012 and what was needed for the solar industry to move forward.
Why Is There so Much Political Energy Behind Solar Power?
California and other western states are among the darlings of the U.S. Energy Department's solar power initiatives. The Obama administration said it was throwing another few million dollars into the so-called SunShot solar power initiative.
Wesley Clark: Make Solar Energy A Military Mission
In his State of the Union address, President Barack Obama called for the U.S. to "double-down on a clean energy industry that's never been more promising."
US President's Budget Extends Support for Solar
President Obama's Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 budget provides for an extension of the Section 1603 Treasury Program. Extension of this worthwhile program will allow taxpayers to reap the significant economic and energy policy benefits associated with the expanded deployment and use of solar energy.

- autoTRADER.ca name and logo usage as a form of reassurance- Buyer/Seller refuses to talk via telephone- Low prices make the deal seem too good to be true - High-value cashier's cheque in exchange for the vehicle- Out of country sellers- Elaborate and dramatized stories about the seller or buyer - Personal information being asked- Shipping orders and other arrangement propositions (financial, etc.)
Common Fraud
autoTRADER.ca brand name and logo used as a form of reassurance autoTRADER.ca name and logo may be misused to create confusion Anyone using the autoTRADER.ca name encouraging you to buy a car or asking you to send them money as a third party money service is coming from a fraudulent e-mail address. Please be cautious.
Usage of an online escrow service
An escrow is a secured online site used to complete transactions Most online escrow sites are FRAUDULENT For more information, conduct an Internet search on "fake escrow" or "escrow fraud" If you must do business with a distant seller, insist on using a legitimate service, such as www.escrow.com
Partial payment asked upfront
Seller says that they trust you with the partial payment and that you must send it before they ship the vehicle They may also say they have already shipped the vehicle so you must send them the necessary money
Claims that only e-mail is available
Many fraudulent sellers only want to be contacted by e-mail The buyer/seller says that a meeting is impossible, often explains extreme circumstances and elaborate stories as to why a meeting can not be arranged Many fraudulent sellers will post a phone number that does not even work
High-value cashier's cheque from a distant buyer
Distant buyer sends you an email offering to buy your item for a price exceeding its value A cashier's cheque is offered for your sale item, as a deposit on your vehicle or vehicle parts Banks will often cash these fake cheques and they hold you responsible once the cheque fails to clear Scam often involves a third party (shipping agent, business associate owing buyer money, etc.)

Airdrie City View launches a new feature: Tell TammyBy: | Posted: Wednesday, Feb 22, 2012 04:08 pm Editor�s Note: This week we welcome a new monthly feature called Tell Tammy. The author, Tammy Tkachuk, is the owner of Airdrie-based Transition Life Coaching & Wellness. She works with adult clients who seek to better themselves, focus on the changes they want to make in their lives and hold themselves accountable to the goals they set. With this column, the goal is to allow readers to ask questions about an issue in their life they would like to sort out. In turn, Tammy will respond as best as possible and give the reader some direction. Tammy is looking for readers to send in questions so she can go through them and pick out ones that would be most generally applicable to others. Please e-mail Tammy directly with your queries at: email@example.com Dear Tammy, I find there is so much build up to the holidays, especially with family and then when they are done, the �winter blues� set in, where it seems winter lasts forever and it is long and depressing. Any suggestions for coping? - Amy Hello Amy, Great question! I think that what you have described here is quite common for a lot of people to experience during this time of year. Many people feel the winter blues for various reasons such as lack of sunlight, overwhelmed by all of the events that take place, family turmoil, and financial stress. There are a few ways to cope with the feelings you have: 1) Take time to just be� recognize what you have and enjoy it. Find your own personal space and let go of your emotions, whether that be out loud or in writing. The key is to find it and take the time to be alone with your thoughts and emotions. 2) Breathe - it has been shown that taking the time to breathe through your diaphragm can have positive effects on the body as opposed to the shallow breathing we are all used to. 3) Spend time with the people who make you happy-go out for coffee with a friend, play in the snow with your children� whatever it may be take the time to do something that brings a smile to you face. 4) Create a list of goals for the new year - things you want to do and accomplish. This helps to give something to look forward to. Stay warm. Tammy Comments

Boloney disson80r, I responded very well to the idea the actions of our predominatly Christian/Judeo society, has passed all our discrimination laws that protects all these Gay rights activists, as well as all other minority rights. How that is hipocracy, or an affront to Gay lifestyles, I have no idea.
The very base of people you think are so bigoted, have passed all these laws against bigotry, and made court rulings favoring all of these issues. This country gives the freedom to practice what ever lifestyle you want, and who is more tolerant than people of Faith and belief, not acting out in these issues by breaking the law? The idea you are oppressed by Religions is ridiculous.
Today what happened? The Gay activists resorted to what should be a hate crime, defacing the Chick-fil-a with a bigoted message of their own, sprayed on the wall. Why! Only becasue so many people turned out in support of it being improper to attack a business over free speech. Your own response to my writing was yourself condemning and persecuting Christians for their belief, and religious freedom. Don't preach hipocracy, when you can not even do basic tolerance yourself, for peoples religion or inturpetation of sin. Did I label you the other day, when your explanation of your own beliefs, failed to be very clear?

My latest reminder resulted from talking to reporter Kim Briggeman of the Missoulian, the daily newspaper based in Missoula, Mont. The subject was the Railway Age 2013 Regional Railroad of the Year, Montana Rail Link, which calls Missoula its headquarters home. We traded information—I asking questions on Missoula's particulars, geographic, political, and otherwise, relating to rail; Kim asking me about our magazine, why short lines and regional railroads matter, and how many of them might exist nationwide.
In the middle of the conversation, I wished him well as he prepared to interview MRL President Tom Walsh for his own story on the railroad. "I'm new at this," he replied modestly, referring to railroading issues. Then he said something to the effect of: I know where the MRL tracks are; I just don't know much about where they go or how they're used.
Briggeman probably knows more than he let on, and he certainly knows more than I do on that score – I don't live in Missoula. Still, the observation resonated with me. Montana Rail Link is a regional railroad, a big regional railroad, in a big state that qualifies as its own region.
If MRL were in my part of the U.S., its right-of-way would easily span five or six states. Not that such an interstate presence would automatically make much difference in perception; Montana Rail Link isn't the only railroad, let alone the only regional railroad, that somehow slips below the proverbial radar, even as MRL's performance (and those of its brethren) makes a real, measurable, quantifiable, financial difference to the lives of everyday people, every day.
Briggeman's excellent article on MRL, published March 27, notes in part: "Bowen said freight carriers such as Montana Rail Link historically have been poor about promoting themselves, and [MRL President] Walsh admitted his company probably doesn't do enough to shine its public image." True enough, but my intent was not to presumptuously single out, shame, or embarrass MRL with that observation; it was meant as an industrywide observation, particularly in years past.
The freight rail industry, led by the Class I's but also including suppliers such as General Electric, has begun breaking out and promoting itself on TV, on the web, and in print advertising in recent months, and that's encouraging. Moreover, the general news media (mainstream and otherwise) has paid attention to hydraulic fracturing and to coal movements (up or down). And intermodalism's increasingly visible profile has captured the attention not just of the media but also of Wall Street. One more example, but a good one, of stating the obvious: Money talks.
That may help the average American overcome its short-term attention span to matters rail, often focused only when bad news takes place. MRL President Walsh, interviewed by Briggeman, summed up his own experience with this phenomenon: "Most of the headlines MRL appears in are about an occasional accident or a controversy such as the coal trains that use its line en route to the West Coast."
MRL, and indeed the rail industry, deserves better. That's one reason why Railway Age bestows its annual awards, to be sure—in fact, one reason among many why Railway Age exists, so we ourselves need to be part of any consciousness-raising. But awards (from us and others) won't alter public perception by themselves.
And don't ask the American Short Line and Regional Railroad Association (ASLRRA) to carry on its century-long, exemplary work all by itself, either. ASLRRA is a powerhouse out of proportion to its size on Capitol Hill. But it's up to ASLRRA's members, and others in the industry—and one hopes, outside of the industry—to get the message of freight rail's value to the U.S. economy out where folks can digest it, and realize what they have, and more important what they don't dare lose.
Other things besides railroads preoccupy the average American's daily life. Not all those things have such an impact on that daily life. Thanks to Kim Briggeman for the useful reminder.

Chocolate for food manufacturers
> Barry Callebaut confirms its leadership at FIE 2007, London: Ten new and unique innovations in chocolate
Barry Callebaut confirms its leadership at FIE 2007, London: Ten new and unique innovations in chocolate
16, 2007
Wieze/Belgium, October 16, 2007 – Chocolate manufacturer Barry Callebaut confirms its position as the world's leading innovator: 10 innovations will be exclusively presented at FIE London, from 30 October to 1 November 2007, at the Barry Callebaut stand (South Hall, entrance S4, F131)
- ACTICOA™ cocoa and chocolate
- Chocolate with a re-balanced nutritional profile
- Probiotic chocolate
- White Chocolate with fruit
- Six country origin chocolates
- Four new regional origins
- Ten Limited Edition origin chocolates
- Five origin cocoa powders
- Superior tasting chocolates
- Aerated chunks
Chocolate & health
When it comes to high-quality cocoa and chocolate ingredients, Barry Callebaut leads the market because it anticipates the food trends. The increasing demand for functional foods with health benefits, has lead Barry Callebaut to develop a range of chocolate applications based on innovative research that goes 'back to the bean'.
One of the first acquirements on the domain of health & wellbeing of Barry Callebaut is ACTICOA™, a special production process designed to preserve the high amount of polyphenols, naturally present in the cocoa bean, in the finished chocolate. ACTICOA™ offers numerous possibilities: chocolate, cocoa and chocolate drinks.
Re-balancing the nutritional profile of chocolate in a natural way or making chocolate more permissible for the end consumer is a second important area in which Barry Callebaut is constantly doing research and development. Barry Callebaut has succeeded to offer chocolate with added health benefits in combination with less fat or sugar.
Barry Callebaut also launches chocolate with probiotics. These friendly bacteria protect the Intestinal balance. They have no Influence at all on the taste, texture or mouth feel of our chocolate. Moreover only a minimum quantity of chocolate per day (13,5g) is required for optimal activity.
Chocolate and fruit: a fresh tasting combination
Barry Callebaut's new White Chocolate & Fruit offers10 new and enticing combinations. Both children and adults will love classics like White Chocolate & Banana, Passion Fruit, Blood Orange or Strawberries. Health potential seekers and true gourmets will find it more in the Bilberry, Blackberry, Cranberry, Elderberry, Lime and Grape skin-varieties. Numerous applications have been developed, allowing manufacturers to extend the chocolate season with the addition of a fresh, summery taste to their products.
Barry Callebaut's expands its range of origin chocolates and cocoa
The presence of Barry Callebaut in the origin countries of cocoa allows the chocolate manufacturer to launch 10 new origin chocolates, on top of the already extensive range of no less than 30 origin chocolates.
Barry Callebaut is sourcing new types of cocoa beans answering to the highest standards in quality and taste, to be able to offer authentic chocolate with a unique taste. FIE 2007 will be the platform for the launch of 6 country origins chocolates, 4 new regional origins and 5 new origin cocoa powders, thus adding a new dimension to Barry Callebaut's reputation as the leader in exquisite chocolate and cocoa. And for those who prize the unique experience of origin chocolate, Barry Callebaut will be unveiling 10 new Limited Edition country origin chocolates at FIE 2007. These finest-quality chocolates are the outcome of rare and meticulously selected cocoa beans grown and harvested under specific local conditions, from plantations, with specific certifications, or even from a specific year.
Superior tasting chocolates
In pursuit of specific, high quality chocolate tastes that exceed the consumer's expectations, Barry Callebaut has created a range of premium chocolates that include all the distinguishing taste profiles for the principal chocolate producing countries. The references for 'The Golden Chocolate Collection' were selected through intensive international market research.
Aerated chocolate
Aerated chocolate inclusions are inclusions with a light, new texture that's visibly different: each aerated chunk has 1/3 the weight of standard chocolate chunks and 1/3 the calories. They increase the visual chocolate experience and appetite appeal by adding more chunks without additional cost. The chunks melt smoothly in the mouth, they float in milk which makes them a perfect application for kids and adults cereals. They can replace standard chunks in bakery and dairy applications.

Why Invest in Small,
"Under-the-Radar" Mining Companies?
While thousands of companies around the world explore for minerals and precious metals, very few hit it big. But those that do often reward investors with fantastic gains – especially investors who get in early.
The biggest payoffs come from finding small-cap miners on the verge of making a big strike. These are often little-known outfits that fly under the radar of mainstream investors.
Finding promising early-stage explorers like these is hard work. But with diligent research it can be done, opening up outstanding profit opportunities for savvy investors – no matter what the economic situation.
Louis James
Senior Metals Strategist, Casey Research
Louis James regularly visits highly prospective geological targets around the world, looking for small-cap mining companies posed for explosive growth. He leaves no stone unturned in his search, grilling management, company geologists and interviewing local residents in a variety of languages to find out what they really think (he's fluent in French and Spanish, and speaks German and Russian). Whether it's back-to-back meetings with mining executives in Vancouver…
The first dollar I invested is up over 1,000%!
I have been a subscriber to Mr. Casey's International Speculator for over 10 years, but have only actively followed his advice for the last seven years. Over the last seven years my investments have risen by an average 42.9% per year; 26.1% in 2007. The first dollar I invested is up over 1,000%!! Keep up the great work."
– Jim G.
I owe much of my retirement security to CIS
I am finally, after subscribing for the first time in about 1998, going to take a few minutes to tell Doug and everyone at Casey Research how pleased I am with your work and the way you do business. Everything you do is top notch. Your web site is without a peer (of the dozens I have tried anyway). It is loaded with good information, easy to use, and easy to learn to use – very important for us old timers who struggle with the Internet.
I owe much of my retirement security to taking a small flier on IUC at $0.27 per share and watching it climb to about $16 after becoming Denison Mining. A sincere thank you for your efforts."
– William M.
For life-changing gains, few sectors offer more opportunity than under-the-radar precious metal miners.
Every month, Casey International Speculator – one of the longest-running, most-respected newsletters of its kind – highlights early-stage explorers sitting on discoveries that could skyrocket the value of their stock. These are small, well-managed outfits that offer the very real possibility of doubling or tripling – or more –your investment very quickly.
Try it now and get an ironclad 100% money-back guarantee – you either love it or you get your money back.
Casey International Speculator has a 30+ year history discovering the best small-cap exploration companies for speculative investment – companies from around the world specializing in mining gold, silver, platinum, and other precious metals, as well as industrial base metals like copper, nickel and lead.
If you're looking to allocate a portion of your portfolio to small-cap international firms with lucrative potential, Casey International Speculator is for you.
Every month, Casey International Speculator brings you the latest developments in the world of precious metals exploration, as well as recommendations of the best companies to invest in.
These aren't the large-cap, big-name behemoths you see in the news. They're small-cap firms on the brink of discoveries that can explode their share prices – and the value of your portfolio – overnight.
Here's a sampling of some of our recommendations:
Casey International Speculator guides you to successful investments like these by focusing on early-stage explorers with the right stuff – seasoned management teams, promising properties, and the capital to harvest their discoveries.
Louis James, CIS editor and our senior metals strategist, personally visits mining sites all over the world to see for himself whether they hold promise. He interviews executives, geologists, and miners to determine if their companies are indeed worthy of your investment. And he talks with residents and politicians to weigh whether a company's mining project might be jeopardized by local opposition, excessive fees, nationalization, or other unforeseen developments.
When you subscribe to Casey International Speculator, you get access to all of Louis' in-depth analysis – including his recommendations on today's best opportunities to make triple-digit profits..
As you can see, Casey International Speculator isn't a static monthly service – it's a dynamic, unique research advisory that keeps you up to date on all of our recommendations and important news affecting the metals sector.
If you don't find Casey International Speculator to be everything you hoped it would be – well researched, clear, concise, and highly profitable – simply cancel at any time within the first 90 days for a no-questions-asked 100% refund. And you can cancel at any time after 90 days for a prorated refund.
And even after three months, you can still receive a pro-rated refund on all undelivered issues.
