The Power of Independent Thinking
Senior Fellow Benjamin Powell is Interviewed on American Medicine Today Radio on Drug Approvals and the FDA
Recorded: Saturday, December 12, 2015
What is the cost of the long approval process for potentially life-saving drugs by the FDA? The approval process can take up to 12 years and cost $1 billion. But there are other costs. Patients arent able to take drugs that arent approved and they might die or become more ill. Another cost is that a potential drug maker might not want to take the financial risk of taking a drug to market. Powell recommends testing drugs but possibly making drugs "FDA recommended", rather than "FDA approved." Whats needed is competition and markets to help patients and entrepreneurs, says Powell.

Mary L.G. Theroux | Childhood Poverty, Government Failures, and the Need for Economic Liberty
Recorded: Thursday, March 26, 2015
Independent Institute Senior Vice President Mary L. G. Theroux testified on "Childhood Poverty, Government Failures, and the Need for Economic Liberty", before the California State Senate's Budget Subcommittee on Health and Human Services, at the request of State Senator Jeff Stone. The witnesses spoke about California's Maximum Family Grant rule for families on welfare. The rule caps grants and does not increase grant money to mothers on welfare when they have more children. Mary testified about the causes of poverty and of the need for other, non-government options for poor families. She introduced ideas for helping the poor through private resources and organizations, instead of government agencies where families and women often find themselves trapped in a cycle of poverty.

Talk:Menma Uzumaki
Back to page
this wiki
how are we going to handle this...
Is a separate article needed, I mean... isn't a redirect to Naruto's movie section enough with some mention of "AU" events in background, personality and appearance sections?--Elveonora (talk) 21:12, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
Idea, what about creating 2 articles, one "Menma (Tobi)" and other "Menma (Naruto)" with the former being a redirect to movie section of Tobi, the latter to Naruto's.--Elveonora (talk) 21:17, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
menma is a name just like menma from the anime. Kunoichi101 (talk) 21:24, July 28, 2012 (UTC)Kunoichi101
Yes, but Menma is just a different name for Naruto, thus it should redirect there I think, it's not a separate character, unless we are going to make "AU Sakura" "AU Hinata" "AU Kiba" etc. like a lot of articles. The only issue is that Menma (au Naruto) is partially Tobi as well, so how to handle that.--Elveonora (talk) 21:40, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
I believe he's probably going to have enough to stand on his own. Techniques and such that Naruto won't be using.--Cerez365™(talk) 21:48, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
This is so confusing... also his hair isn't black ordinary, he was born blond like Naruto, only when in "Tobi mode" it's black--Elveonora (talk) 22:16, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
- how about you watch the movie for next year? of course, the movie is raw. i declare this topic is now closed. Kunoichi101 (talk) 22:27, July 28, 2012 (UTC)Kunoichi101
Kunoichi101, don't be rude. I don't think it's really necessary to create an page for AU Sasuke and the others. I mean, it's still them, just with different personalities. Plus, their roles in the movie isn't even that big, according the summary I read. Of course, Menma and his cohorts needs separate articles, but I'm not big on the thing for Menma (Tobi) and Menma (Naruto). Maybe it could be better until we wait until the movie is on DVD and subbed, or until a leak is out.--NinjaSheik 22:32, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
- Sheik, please don't call my real name in front of them. After all, the movie already came out, only in theaters. elveonora is just confused, that's all Kunoichi101 (talk) 22:36, July 28, 2012 (UTC)Kunoichi101
- Kunoichi, I'm confused how to handle it here on wiki. Creating a separate article for a character that's basically Naruto sounds weird, then there's the Tobi issue as well. As a note, I'm a guy--Elveonora (talk) 22:40, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
- sorry, anyway. just wait, ok. let's don't jump on conclusions. Kunoichi101 (talk) 22:41, July 28, 2012 (UTC)Kunoichi101
- Sorry for the confusion. Your name seems feminine to me. ^__^' Well, there are different Narutos, it is a little confusing, so it'd be best to wait.--NinjaSheik 22:44, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
Lawd now I see why you guys are confused. Not 100% on-board with creating alternate universe articles for everyone. Possibly I'll need more evidence, like do they have different names O.o and such? I can see argument for creating new articles or subsuming them, either one is fine with me depending on the volume of info we have to deal with or what the community decides.--Cerez365™(talk) 01:01, July 29, 2012 (UTC)
- it's because of the trailer i watched. however i will wait for the movie with subs. Kunoichi101 (talk) 05:03, July 29, 2012 (UTC)Kunoichi101
The only one with a different name is Naruto. The problem: Menma = AU Naruto... writing in an article: "Naruto is fighting himself, and the evil Naruto attacked the good Naruto" see? Not to mention Menma is possessed by Tobi, thus the "darkness, abilities and appearance" is due to him. At the moment, the article says his hair is black, but that's not correct as he was born with blond and it turns blond later again--Elveonora (talk) 00:00, July 30, 2012 (UTC)
- i don't want to heard the spolier alert right now, all i wanted is to wait for next year. after all that movie is already in the theaters. besides... what's important is the whole plot overview. Kunoichi101 (talk) 03:18, July 30, 2012 (UTC)Kunoichi101
So is Menma basically Obito? I knew him and Naruto were related in some alternate way! XD--Black Ronin8 (talk) 12:44, July 31, 2012 (UTC)Black Ronin8
What are you talking about? ....--Elveonora (talk) 12:53, July 31, 2012 (UTC)
- Can you explain how Obito has anything to do with this?---TheUltimate3 (talk) 12:54, July 31, 2012 (UTC)
I was just joking. It was just that I saw the Menma has the sharingan as kekkei genkai (that, I'm interested in finding out real soon), he has spiky black hair, and he looks like Naruto (since he is the alternate Naruto), that I decided in making a joke that he's basically Obito, that's all.--Black Ronin8 (talk) 13:10, July 31, 2012 (UTC)Black Ronin8
Next time on topic please.--Elveonora (talk) 13:28, July 31, 2012 (UTC)
Based on what I've read and seen, Menma is essentially Naruto with Sasuke's personality (seeing how a lot of the other AU characters have swapped personalities, like Guy and Kakashi). This makes sense because Naruto has said numerous times that he could have easily become the same sort of revenge-obsessed psychopath Sasuke became, as seen with Menma and "Dark Naruto". Obito does interact with him in the movie, though. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 05:30, September 23, 2012 (UTC)
if menma obtained the sharingan somehow, wasn't be updated the Sharingan article of known weilders list? Kunoichi101 (talk) 15:38, July 31, 2012 (UTC)Kunoichi101
So is menma a fuse of naruto and tobi? if so then he has tobi's Sharingan and naruto's tailed beast (kurama) for a perfect balance between the two. it all is confusing to me. i am sorry if i am confusing. —This unsigned comment was made by 184.108.40.206 (talk • contribs) .
Menma (Naruto) didn't obtain Sharingan, only when under Tobi's influence it's there. Look above, that's why I started this convo... dunno how to treat this case--Elveonora (talk) 18:07, July 31, 2012 (UTC)
Ohhh, so that's how he got it.--184.108.40.206 (talk) 00:03, August 1, 2012 (UTC)Black Ronin8
^^Still me, I forgot to sign in.--Black Ronin8 (talk) 00:08, August 1, 2012 (UTC)Black Ronin8
Create living beings?
In the abilities selecion it says that he can create living beings. What is that supposed to mean? HorizonStriker (talk) 09:58, August 1, 2012 (UTC)
From the Tailed Beast's chakra--Elveonora (talk) 12:46, August 1, 2012 (UTC)
What exactly is the "living beings" referring to? --Cerez365™(talk) 12:55, August 1, 2012 (UTC)
New Tailed Beasts--Elveonora (talk) 13:03, August 1, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah chicken, and nuggets too.--Elveonora (talk) 13:12, August 1, 2012 (UTC)
Who is his voice actor?
Does anyone know who voices Menma? Is it Naruto's voice actress or a different one?--Kai Maciel (talk) 19:22, August 5, 2012 (UTC)
By Junko as well.--Elveonora (talk) 20:17, August 5, 2012 (UTC)
Where do all these pictures come from?
It's available at the Internet? How is that possible?Patsoumas1995 (talk) 09:57, August 13, 2012 (UTC) —This unsigned comment was made by Patsoumas1995 (talk • contribs) .
- Probably from a new trailer. -White Flash-(Talk)- Aug 13, 2012 @ 09:59 (UTC)
Menma Uzumaki
Shouldn't it be called Menma Uzumaki? Since it did say he is the Alternate Version of Naruto Uzumaki except their First Name are different. --Cococrash11 (talk) 22:11, September 7, 2012 (UTC)
- Not really. Only if he's called Menma Uzumaki in any official source. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:57, September 7, 2012 (UTC)
Its not like with Nagato and Karin since they didn't admit or deny their last name are Uzumaki. So is there an official source? --Cococrash11 (talk) 23:57, September 7, 2012 (UTC)
His last name was not given--Elveonora (talk) 00:36, September 8, 2012 (UTC)
He miight not even have one, i mean look at Kimimaro, the databook did'nt give him one.18.104.22.168 (talk) 03:29, September 8, 2012 (UTC) yomiko-chan
Even if he does have one, due to the difference in circumstances, there's good odds it wouldn't even be Uzumaki. It could be Namikaze since there's no need to hide his heritage here. --Hawkeye2701 (talk) 01:09, September 9, 2012 (UTC)
No reason to discuss that, it wasn't mentioned in the movie. Maybe worthy a trivia though--Elveonora (talk) 01:13, September 9, 2012 (UTC)
if he merges with tobi, then he should have the sharingan in kekkei genkai and the mangekyo too since tobi has the mangekyo. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 17:29, September 8, 2012 (UTC)
- That's just Tobi possessing him, not actually him. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:59, September 8, 2012 (UTC)

There is a big debate whether or not male enhancement pills are better than penis pumps. You are going to have to weigh the pros and cons of this one to be able to come up with the right answer for yourself.
Male Enhancement Pills
You are going to be able to get a wide selection of pills on the market, but getting down to just one is going to be hard. There are those on the market that you are going to have to read the fine print. You have to be alright that you may have a chance of getting erectile dysfunction and never be able to use your penis again. However, with the innovation that has been done on them, there is lesser chance of this. With male enhancement pills, the results are not instantaneous. You have to wait an hour or two for the pill to go through your system. For those who are in the moment and need to have a larger penis, you are going to have to be aware that it takes a little time.
With the penis pump, you have instant results. However, the effects are going to last a lot less than the male enhancement pills you are going to pick up from your local drug store. You are going to be able to be excited as you are pumping your penis as well. For those who have a problem of sustaining from climaxing too soon, this is not going to be a product you are going to want to use. You may have the hard erection you have always wanted, but you may only have 3-5 minutes of fun with it. You have to be aware of what your body can take and what it can't. You always have to watch out for the health of your penis when doing things in this nature. You have to be happy with the size of your penis if you have any doubts whether this is going to hurt you. The more the demand for these there are, the more of a chance you have to be able to have innovation. Read more here.
You have to be able to get all the results you need through any of the products, but you have to be sure that you are being safe with everything you do. You don't want to risk the side effects happening to you and you are going to be able to push yourself to the next stage of the relationship.

Cincinnati (Ohio) Moeller is home to four-star linebacker Shane Jones, one of the Midwest's top prospects and a player that Boston College would love to land.At 6-foot-1 and 220-pounds Jones has impressive strength and athleticism. He covers ground, tackles well and could be plugged into a depth chart as an early contributor in college. He's ranked the No. 14 inside linebacker in the nation.On April 12 he will be visiting Michigan State for a spring practice and he also plans on getting out to Pitt sometime in April."I'm still pretty wide open," Jones told EagleAction.com this week. "Those are the only two visits I have planned but I'm still evaluating every school that's offered and I plan on taking my time."Jones has 21 offers in all and that means he has his work cut out for him.The last school he visited was Michigan State and that was for a junior day."It was good," he said of the school he will visit again in just over two weeks. "I loved it up there."Jones said he hopes to at least try to visit every school that has offered. Whether that's realistic, only time will tell.What does he think about Boston College?"I know they've offered me and I want to say that happened about two weeks ago," Jones said."I talked to Coach (Sean) Devine and he told me about the offer. Last week I talked to Coach McGovern and he told me about the school and said they liked me. I think when I talked to him they were at Pro Day and that's when I caught them. They were just telling me a lot of stuff that sounded good."Jones still has a lot to learn if the Eagles are to make a serious push."I don't know too much about them but I'm going to look them up here soon and get some information on them," he said.WANT TO GO INSIDE BOSTON COLLEGE?

Inspired by coq au vin, this colorful dish balances the earthiness of mushrooms, bittersweet notes of Brussels sprouts, and smokiness of bacon. Feel free to use any type of mushroom. If you don't eat pork, omit the bacon—just swap in oil or butter to cook the chicken and use a bit more salt.
Inspired by coq au vin, this colorful dish balances the earthiness of mushrooms, bittersweet notes of Brussels sprouts, and smokiness of bacon. Feel free to use any type of mushroom. If you don't eat pork, omit the bacon—just swap in oil or butter to cook the chicken and use a bit more salt.
In a large bowl, coat the chicken with the flour, shaking off and reserving the excess. Sprinkle the chicken all over with a total of 1 tsp. of the salt, 10 grinds of the pepper, and the nutmeg. Place the bacon in a single layer in a cold, 10-inch, heavy sauté pan. Heat over medium and cook until most of the fat renders, about 9 minutes. Raise the heat to medium high and cook until golden brown and a bit crisp, stirring, about 6 minutes. Transfer the bacon to the slow cooker (don't leave any bacon bits in the pan).
Add half of the chicken to the hot pan and cook until lightly golden brown on both sides, about 10 minutes. Repeat with the remaining chicken, about another 5 minutes. Transfer to a large plate. Pour all but about 2 Tbs. of the bacon fat into a small bowl and reserve. Add the celeriac, carrots, onions, and garlic to the hot pan, and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 7 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to the slow cooker and top with the chicken.
Add another Tbs. of bacon fat plus the tomato paste and any remaining flour to the sauté pan. Cook, stirring, until no flour is visible, about 30 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat, carefully add the brandy, then return the pan to the heat and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil, whisking, until the sauce is smooth and a bit thick, about 2 minutes. Stir in the stock and honey, and cook for another 2 minutes, whisking, until the sauce is smooth. Pour over the chicken. Cover and cook on low until the chicken is tender, 4 to 4-1⁄2 hours.
Meanwhile, bring a covered pot of heavily salted water to a boil. When boiling, add the Brussels sprouts and cook over high heat until they're tender but still have a slight bite, about 7 minutes. Set aside. Heat 2 Tbs. of the bacon fat and the butter in a 10-inch, heavy sauté pan over medium-high heat. When the butter is melted, add the mushrooms, the remaining 1⁄4 tsp. salt, and 4 grinds pepper, and sauté until browned and tender, about 9 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the slow cooker, mix in the cooked vegetables (let them sit in the slow cooker for about 10 minutes if they've cooled), and add back in the chicken. Serve.

Me too. I bought two prebuilts at the 1500G price simply for two cards: Francis and Jerry. When you compare it to getting 3 cards from the Ex packs, it's about the same price, but all posters agreed in the Ex pack thread that it is still a huge ripoff. For me, I traded 10 5* for three 3* and 3* Ex. Bye bye Set 11 rares.

His special recipe combines Korintje Grade-A cinnamon, Madagascar cloves and whole allspice berries with tangy bits of American orange peel. When you simmer the blend with apple cider or red wine, it fills your kitchen with a rich, spicy aroma that's warm and welcoming as the drink itself.

- Orientation Seminar, "How To College"
- Tutorial Program
- Mentoring Program
- Learning Communities & Supplemental Instruction
- Cultural Activities
- Transfer to a Four-Year College
- Financial Aid Counseling
- Academic Advising
- Laptop Computer Checkout
Orientation Seminar, "How To College"
The Orientation Seminar is required of all program participants. The Seminar is a seven (7) week noncredit seminar that will include orientation activities designed to assist transitioning into college, the collegial process, assure entry into designated classes, and procedures to enhance and obtain support services to achieve academic success.
Tutorial Program
Tutoring will be determined upon need and as requested by the student. Tutoring will be available in the general education academic courses of reading, writing, math, and other courses identified during the assessment of individual student needs process. Individual tutoring will be available to those students who are in crisis or require individual attention as determined by student progress and SSS staff.
Mentoring Program
Small group and individualized mentoring will be available for all SSS participants under the direction of the SSS Counselor. The counselor will ensure that the mentoring component will provide a high quality of training and appropriate services to students by administering formal and informal assessments, reference checks, interest surveys, and observations. The mentoring program will assist program participants in becoming familiar with college life, will provide guidance in the selection of classes, will provide avenues for program participants to have someone to discuss issues unique to low income first generation college students, and provide a support network to students unfamiliar with college.
Learning Communities & Supplemental Instruction
Selected SSS participants will be eligible for enrollment in a pipeline curriculum of three academic courses in dedicated sections. These students will progress as a group with a minimum of two academic classes each semester. They will meet for study groups outside of class and will be assigned to the same mentor. They will participate in cultural activities as a group. An Academic Specialist will be assigned to each class and will attend each class section. Once a week outside of class, the Academic Specialists will meet with the class to provide supplementary instruction to include tutoring, reviewing notes, clarifying concepts, test preparation, and for group discussion.
Cultural Activities
TRIO Student Support Services participants will be given the opportunity to experience cultural events that will complement their educational experience, as well as enlighten and entertain. SSS students will have a better understanding of global society, through exposure to different races, ethnicities, cultures, and will practice tolerance towards people of different backgrounds. Program participants will be invited to participate in all campus activities and events such as Leadership Conferences, clubs, student organizations, etc. Student will also have the opportunity to visit local museums, galleries, and historical sites.
Transfer to a Four-Year College
Services to assist TRIO Student Support Services students in transferring to a four-year institution will consists of exposure to the University Center located at VSCC, a Faculty Exchange Program, and the opportunity for SSS students to speak with University faculty advisors. The University Center, located on the VSCC main campus, currently has five (5) four-year institutions providing baccalaureate degree programs to students.
Financial Aid Counseling
All TRIO Student Support Services students will be invited to attend one of the workshops offered by the Financial Aid Office. SSS students will be assisted in completing financial aid applications by SSS staff in conjunction with the Office of Financial Aid. The Office of Financial Aid has committed to working wit the SSS students to assure that each student receives the best financial aid package possible.
Academic Advising
All SSS participants will receive individual assistance with course selection to insure that there is progress with their academic goals. The TRIO Student Support Services Counselor will meet with each student to review their Individualized Learning Plan and any necessary revisions will be made at that time. The Advising Center will assist the SSS Counselor in advising SSS students.
Computer Laptop Checkout
TRIO Student Support Services participants will have available to them thirty (30) laptop computers for use at home. The availability of a computer at home will assist the student in having chat room discussions with their peers and faculty, will increase their opportunities to conduct research through the internet, will allow them to contact faculty through email, and will increase their understanding and knowledge of computer technology.

Memory Alpha:Category suggestions
this wiki
Please make sure you have read and understood Memory Alpha's category approval policy before editing this page. Category suggestions can be used to suggest a single category, multiple categories in the same "tree branch" or "parent category," or to determine which categories will contain or be contained by other categories. From there, they may either be approved and enacted by moving the discussion from this page to the new category's talk page, or, if not approved, moving the discussion from here to the category suggestion archive.
One of the reasons we discuss categories first is because we need to ensure that the category tag, when circumstances call for it, contains the correct sort keys to arrange the list in a predetermined order.
This page is broken down into sections:
- In-universe categories: These categories are intended to be use for in-universe articles, and should be named to maintain Memory Alpha's POV.
- Production POV categories: These categories are for use on production articles, which are written from the real world POV, and as such should be have the {{realworld}} template on them.
- Maintenance categories: These categories are used in the maintenance of Memory Alpha, and would include the audio and image files for example. These categories can have either a in-universe or real world POV.
In-universe categories
Missions and expeditions parent
I created Category:Missions and expeditions based on my rereading this, which had everyone actually agreeing that we should have the category, but not liking the name (myself in fact) or what category it should be under. I'm fine with the name as is now, and will do the work to change it if I misread that and we decide otherwise, but there wasn't a category decided to place this under, so we still need that. I did like the original suggestion of "Events", which could then cover Crossing, Fornax Disaster (categorized), Alien abduction, and other uncategorized pages, but since that failed the first time around, I'm open to suggestions. - Archduk3 14:57, June 4, 2011 (UTC)
- I like Events as well; I'm not sure what else you could use instead.--31dot 09:25, August 5, 2011 (UTC)
Production POV categories
Award categories
We have categroies for Category:Academy Award winners and Category:Academy Award nominees, Category:Emmy Award winners and Category:Emmy Award nominees, and Category:Saturn Award winners and Category:Saturn Award nominees. To complete the list we also should have Category:Screen Actors Guild Award winners and Category:Taurus World Stunt Award nominees. Maybe I am missing one more, see this list. – Tom 06:52, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
- Support. - Archduk3 06:09, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
- Come up with a full list, and it shouldn't be a problem I don't think. -- sulfur 15:37, September 7, 2010 (UTC)
- So, would Star Trek be listed in the "Screen Actors Guild Award winners" category, or all the individual series pages? I'm not sure how to place the series at whole in there. Was that award a honorary one, or do series win like that all the time? - Archduk3 (on an unsecure connection) 03:57, September 16, 2011 (UTC)
- I also approve of such a category (at least, in principal). --Defiant 04:38, September 16, 2011 (UTC)
Ok, here are the missing categories, so far:
- Category:ACE Eddie Award nominees
- Category:ADG Excellence in Production Design Award nominees
- Category:ADG Excellence in Production Design Award winners
- Category:ALMA Award nominees
- Category:ALMA Award winners
- Category:ASC Award nominees
- Category:ASCAP Film and Television Music Award winners
- Category:BAFTA Award nominees
- Category:C.A.S. Award nominees
- Category:C.A.S. Award winners
- Category:Grammy Award nominees
- Category:Hugo Award nominees
- Category:Hugo Award winners
- Category:International Monitor Award winners
- Category:MTV Movie Award nominees
- Category:The NAACP Image Award nominees
- Category:Satellite Award nominees
- Category:Satellite Award winners
- Category:Screen Actors Guild Award winners
- Category:Taurus World Stunt Award nominees
- Category:Writers Guild of America Award nominees
- Category:Writers Guild of America Award winners
I only thought to include these categories to people, maybe also companies but not to specific episodes or the series. These categories could be subcategories to Category:Award nominees and Category:Award winners. Tom 18:23, October 13, 2011 (UTC)
- I prefer a single "Awards" category, then the rest laid out in the same style that we have now for the various award categories (ie, Awards->X nominees->X winners). The overall awards page (and the redirects that we have) can go into that top level "Awards" category. I'm not sure that we need "Award nominees" and "Award winners" as extra categories. -- sulfur 18:36, October 13, 2011 (UTC)
Fish out of water
We must have one of this kind for every character that is somehow a fish out of temporal waters in Star Trek, even sentient holodeck programs liike Moriarty... what do you say?--The Tuvixean (talk) 17:22, October 19, 2012 (UTC)
- This is "original research" at best. I'm not sure that I see how it can even be easily decided upon. -- sulfur (talk) 17:37, October 19, 2012 (UTC)
Retconned material
For pages and redirects about material that was retconned "out" of canon in a remastered release. - Archduk3 00:50, January 15, 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah, I think something like that would be helpful, along the lines of the unreferenced material cat. 31dot (talk) 00:56, January 15, 2013 (UTC)

Lowest Online Price: Amazon, Best Buy, Target or Walmart?
CNBC and personal finance website NerdWallet tracked base prices on 11 consumer electronics products over 12 consecutive weeks.
CNBC and personal finance website NerdWallet tracked base prices on 11 consumer electronics products over 12 consecutive weeks.
Sony is handily winning the war of the current-generation consoles. Will Microsoft stay down for the count?
After scammers duped Walmart for cheap PlayStations 4s, the company has once again clarified its price-match policy.
Consumers' misuse of Walmart's price-match program isn't limited to the PlayStation 4. But shoppers may find it's no longer so easy to replicate the feat.
Sony reported a $1.2 billion loss for the last quarter after a disappointing performance and a write-down in the company's mobile phone division.
Sony's PlayStation 4 hits the magic 10 million in sales. And Microsoft's Xbox One lingers in its rival's dust.
The Xbox One will get $100 cheaper next month, but it may not be a bargain without the motion-based Kinect controller.
Wall Street news this week include Amazon expanding its Prime offering with HBO and Home Depot and Lowe's reporting quarterly financials.
The week's business highlights: Groupon disappointed investors, while King Digital, Electronic Arts and Activision reported good news for their video games.
The hype, the holiday shopping and hopefully the hubris are over, and sheer numbers tell the story: 7 millions PS4 systems vs. 5 million Xbox Ones.
'Big Bang Theory's' Sheldon, Howard, Leonard, Raj, Amy, Bernadette and Penny are especially funny in teaching what not to do about money.
GameStop stumbled in its holiday quarter, and the changing technology of gaming -- apps and cloud-based games -- suggests tough times ahead for the video game retailer.
Here's how the start of the holiday shopping season is playing out.
This should be a great time for GameStop. Sony's new PlayStation 4 and Microsoft's Xbox One should lure masses of gamers to its stores. And they might. But it won't be enough.
From the launch of the Xbox One to home improvement chains stepping up with fresh financials, here are some of the things that will help shape this week on Wall Street.
Netflix is reprogramming the way its Internet video subscription service appears on millions of television screens in an attempt to hook viewers for even longer periods.
From the release of Sony's new PS4 video game console to earnings reports out of Walmart and Yum!, here are some items that will help shape the week ahead on Wall Street.
After more than three years of declining sales, the video game industry is counting on November to breathe new life into the fading console business.
From high-end apparel retailer lululemon athletica making a down-market move to Netflix adding to its ever-growing library, here are the wonders and blunders of the week.
From a changing of the guard in the video game console wars, to retailers planning to cut Thanksgiving short, here are best and worst moves from the business world this week.
Sony's PlayStation 4 and Microsoft's Xbox One are engaged in the latest round of the console wars -- and one system already looks better for consumers.
Next week, Sony will unveil the PlayStation 4, and it's not just Sony that needs it to be a hit. After a soft sales start for Nintendo's Wii U, and Microsoft's risky plan for the Xbox 720, the whole gaming world should be rooting for the PS4.

The acid-fast stain is a laboratory test that determines if a sample of tissue, blood, or other body substance is infected with the bacteria that causes tuberculosis and other illnesses.
Your health care provider will collect a sample of urine, stool, sputum, bone marrow, or tissue, depending on the location of the suspected infection.
The sample is then sent to a laboratory. There, some of the sample is placed on a glass slide, stained, and heated. The cells in the sample hold onto the dye. The slide is then washed with an acid solution and a different stain is applied.
Bacteria that hold onto the first dye are considered "acid-fast" because they resist the acid wash. This type of bacteria is associated with tuberculosis and other infections.
Preparation depends on how the sample is collected. Your health care provider will tell you how to prepare.
The amount of discomfort depends on how the sample is collected. Your health care provider will discuss this with you.
The test can tell if you are likely infected with the bacteria that causes tuberculosis and related infections.
A normal result means no acid-fast bacteria were found on the stained sample.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test result.
Abnormal results may be due to:
Risks depend on how the sample is collected. Ask your health provider to explain the risks and benefits of the medical procedure.

A law enforcement officer says authorities found weapons in the burned-out pickup truck of the former Los Angeles police officer who's wanted in three killings.
The officer spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.
11 News talked with a college friend of Chris Dorner, who got to know him as a young man. We're not revealing this man's name while Dorner remains on the run. He was on the football team with Dorner in Southern Utah.
He said they were close friends for a while, but tells 11 News that hearing about all the things Dorner's accused of isn't surprising. The two met freshman year of college, and he described Dorner as bi-polar and moody.
"He was moody, there were red flags all over the place, you could ask anybody on the team. Had they asked me, had the Navy asked me or anything of that nature, he wouldn't have gotten in."
He told us the coverage of Dorner's past is skewed. Investigators say the 33-year-old suspect wrote a manifesto professing he was bullied.
"(Dorner) got on that manifesto and painted a picture that wasn't true."
His college friend says occasionally, it was Dorner that was the bully, adding that he held on to grudges, refusing to let little things go.
"When he was your friend, he was tight. When he, obviously, in our fight as I described to you, when he hates, he hates."
The truck was found Thursday in the San Bernardino Mountains near Big Bear Lake, spurring a massive manhunt for Dorner in the snowy mountains.
Investigators have been examining the truck to determine if it broke down or was set ablaze as a diversion. Police say the truck had a broken axle. Investigators are trying to determine whether it was already broken when they found it, or whether it was damaged when it was towed away.
The friend also said Dorner was a very smart man. Very engaging when he wanted to be, but believes he's leading investigators on a goose chase.
Authorities believe Dorner remains armed and dangerous, and may have as many as 30 weapons with him.

In each of Paul's letters to new Christian churches in the New Testament there is a section praying for the congregation. For example, in Colossians 1:9-14 Paul prays the people will have wisdom and understand God's will, that they will have endurance and patience and be filled with joyful thanksgiving for the salvation, redemption and forgiveness of sins they have received through Jesus Christ. In the Christian faith we call this intercessory prayer, that is, prayer for others.

Julianna Morris happily reports that she and her own Mr. Right are working on a shoreline home in the Great Lakes area. Not only does Mr. Right get along with her cat, but he's introduced her to the chaotic joy of a multiple dog household. Of course, the cat still rules, but felines are loveable dictators
most of the time.
Her feline sidekick is now over 20 pounds, leading some visitors to suspect she has a mountain lion living in the house. One of his cherished pastimes is pulling paperback books out of the bookshelf. He's quite comical standing on his hind legs, slipping and sliding on the books already on the ground, yet determined to clear the rest off of the shelf. In Julianna's opinion anyone who lives with a feline—or a husband—desperately needs a sense of humor. Luckily hers is quite intact and a little offbeat, so she laughs when those books come off the shelf, instead of worrying about having to pick them up again.
Like a cat, Julianna is curious about everything. Her interests range from history, science and photography, to antiquing, traveling, walking, gardening and reading science fiction. She draws, paints, collects teapots and recipes, has taught classes in American patchwork and quilting, and tries to find time for everything else she wants to do.
People often ask about her favorite movies and actors, and the answer changes constantly. But she's particularly fond of old movies, like The Wizard of Oz, The Miracle of Morgan's Creek, and The Major and the Minor. More recent movies she's enjoyed are Calendar Girls, The Lord of the Rings trilogy and Luther. As for actors and actresses, she thinks Cary Grant was gorgeous, Jean Stapleton marvelously talented and that Sean Connery is sexy at any age.
Julianna's love of writing was born out of a passion for reading—one of her most valued possessions as a child was her library card. The worlds opened by books were such magical places that it wasn't long before she wanted to create a few of her own. Her first Silhouette book was published in August 1995.

Green shoots are good, but must be nurtured
At last week's Edison Electric Institute Financial Conference, a group of electrical utility chief financial officers and those offering credit to utilities sat down together and discussed the financial pressures on companies relating to credit access, financing challenges in the new banking environment, and the weak economic recovery.
Over and over throughout the day, I heard the phrase "green shoots" used to describe the first indications of an economic recovery, and this panel was no exception.
"I think the recession is over. The green shoots are growing," said David McHale, senior vice president and CFO of Northeast Utilities. But he tempered his optimism with caution: "I'm not sure that's going to translate into immediate sales growth."
That may be the bad news. However, there was good, as well. According to J. Nicholas McKee, managing director and co-head of power investment banking for Citigroup Global Markets Inc., "There is not going to be a challenge as far as the cost of capital goes in terms of competing against other industries. I think the industry will still have strong access to capital, both short- and long-term."
Jay Horine, managing director and head of power and utilities for JPMorgan Securities, agreed with McKee. While he noted we are seeing a lot of pushback to annual rate cases, "capital markets, both debt and equity, remain very open to the electricity industry."
Smart grid technology, and its potential uses, also occupied this panel's collective thoughts last week. Many utilities are beginning to add smart meters in their territories, but not many have yet indicated they will use this technology for real-time pricing. The panel's CFOs were asked if their companies will be leaning in this direction.
Lynn Good, Duke Energy's group executive and CFO, said Duke has received approval to put smart meters in Ohio. "Over time, we expect to see all kinds of benefits," she added, noting that she wouldn't put real-time pricing at the top of that list.
On the other hand, Northeast Utilities' McHale said, "For our state, it is going to be about pricing – we just finished a pilot in Connecticut that was all about pricing." According to McHale, the question for utilities becomes this: How much do you really want to vary those peak time prices?"
According to Horine of JPMorgan, energy efficiency, technology, and the ability to enable real-time pricing are all tied together. "This industry has a unique position of being a strong voice at the (smart grid technology) table," he told participants. "There is so much money and interest going into this, and the electric industry sits at the center of this discussion."
And energy efficiency is a unique part of the financial equation, as Bill William Rogers, NV Energy's senior vice president, CFO and treasurer, so succinctly pointed out: "Energy efficiency is a very low capital cost compared to building generation," he said. "We can either capture that opportunity, or we can allow others to do so."
With green shoots now appearing on our economic horizon, we obviously have reason to be hopeful. But still, we're learning a belt-tightening lesson that will repeat itself. With new technology, we have the opportunity to be more aware of our energy use, and better able to manage that resource. Utilities and their customers have the opportunity to partner in this, and to nuture that green shoot growth.

May 6, 2016
Tallahassee, FL - A little after 6:00 a.m. this morning, there was a one-car accident on Blair Stone Road near Wineward Blvd.
The male driver of the black Lincoln was headed east when he crossed the median hitting a tree-head on. The vehicle came to rest on its side in the westbound lane.
The driver was responsive when first responders arrived. The man suffered lacerations on his head as well as a broken femur. He is being treated at an area hospital.
Portions of Blair Stone were blocked off to clean up the scene.
Officers do not believe alcohol was a contributing factor. Officer Scott Beck tells WCTV that investigators believe the crash might have been caused after a medical incident because there were no signs of the driver trying to over-correct.

The 2016 Audi A6 is a mid-size luxury sport sedan that offers strong performance while also delivering all-weather confidence and good gas mileage. Interior and backseat space are also a bit better than in other rear-wheel-drive European sport sedans, and the interior appointments themselves stand out as more fashion-forward.
Audi claims best-in-class fuel economy for the 2.0T model, which achieves up to 25 mpg city, 33 highway. The TDI clean diesel offers even more impressive fuel economy, with returns of 24 mpg city and 38 mpg highway.
Advanced technology--whether for safety, information, or entertainment--is where the A6 really shines. It offers blind-spot monitors, a night vision system, a heads-up display, parking sensors, adaptive cruise control and other leading-edge safety features. The A6 is also ahead of the curve with its excellent MMI Touch system, which includes a simplified interface and a scratch-pad controller that accepts input addresses by tracing individual letters.
Meanwhile, the S6 remains a performance standout, with performance capable of propelling it to 60 mph in just 4.8 seconds.
Compare the 2016 Audi A6 against similar models
The Audi A6 has seen several updates for the 2016 model year. The base 4-cylinder turbo and the supercharged V6 get a significant power bump this year, giving the car much better acceleration and showing off its sports sedan roots. The exterior of the car has also been updated with a new front fascia and new taillights. The interior of the car gets several new color and aesthetic options including contrasting stitching on the seats.
A vehicle's warranty can significant impact your maintenance costs after you drive off the dealer's lot, and it's important to understand the different parts. Typically, a new car warranty includes a Basic warranty, which covers everything except the wear items such as brakes and tires; and a Drivetrain warranty, that covers all the parts that make the car move, such as the engine and transmission
The NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) provides consumers with vehicle safety information based on independent testing, primarily front and side crash rating results, and more recently rollover ratings, to aid consumers in their vehicle purchase decisions.
Below are pictures of the 2016 Audi A6. Select the picture you want to view below
Below are the available colors for the 2016 Audi A6. Select the color to see a close-up view.
The Audi A6 and S6 have been updated for model year 2016. Freshened styling, and updated Audi MMI and revised gasoline engines highlight the changes to the 2016 Audi A6 and 2016 Audi S6.
New to the entire 2016 A6 and S6 lineup are redesigned LED headlamps, a revised grille, new taillights, restyled bumpers, and new tailpipes. There are new gray and brown interior colors, and the available HUD (head-up display) integrates into the dash more smoothly on 2016 models.
The 2016 A6 2.0T gets a revised 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that now makes 252 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque, an increase of 32 hp and 15 lb-ft; a huge increase, for such a small engine. A6 2.0T comes standard with front-wheel drive and a new seven-speed dual-clutch S tronic transmission, replacing the previous CVT. Quattro all-wheel drive can be added, pared with an eight-speed Tiptronic automatic.
The 2016 A6 3.0T that uses a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 gets a boost to 333 horsepower, 23 more than 2015, with 325 lb-ft of torque. Quattro and Tiptronic are standard.
The A6 3.0 TDI clean diesel continues with its fuel-efficient 3.0-liter V6 turbodiesel that makes 240 horsepower and a beastly 428 pound-feet of torque, while getting an EPA-estimated 29 mpg Combined city and highway. It uses the eight-speed Tiptronic, too.
The 2016 S6 features an upgraded 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 boosted horsepower to 450 and torque to 406 pound-feet. A 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and quattro are standard.
MMI, what Audi calls its man-machine-interface infotainment system, is upgraded for model year 2016, with a fast Nvidia quad-core Tegra 30 processor for quicker delivery of information and graphics; Bluetooth, Siri, and social media functions are included.
The 2016 A6 earned five stars in government crash testing.
The 2016 Audi A6 2.0T ($46,200) comes standard with front-wheel drive or with quattro all-wheel drive ($2400). The 2016 A6 3.0T quattro ($57,400) and A6 3.0 TDI turbodiesel Quattro ($59,500) come standard with all-wheel drive.
Standard equipment includes leather upholstery and a sunroof. Premium package and premium plus packages add electronic goodies. There's also a cold weather package and sport package with 19-inch all-season tires.
Standard equipment includes leather upholstery and a sunroof. Premium package and premium plus packages add electronic goodies. There's also a cold weather package and sport package with 19-inch all-season tires. The best option is an awesome 15-speaker, 1300-watt Bang & Olufsen sound system with rising tweeters.
The Audi A6 is average length for a midsize sedan, but because of its styling, a longer nose and shorter trunk lid, it offers less space inside. There's room to stretch your legs in front but not so much room to spread your knees, because of a wide center tunnel. Headroom in front is good but in the rear it's snug on account of the roofline. The trunk holds 14.1 cubic feet, which is enough if not ample, and the cargo floor is rather high.
Heated front seats are standard, and they're very comfortable on long trips, with relaxing headrests. The rear seats fold but not flat. Like other German sedans, there isn't a lot of small storage space; small cupholders but doors with niches for water bottles. There's a smallish glovebox and shallow bin in the center console under the armrest.
The dash and instrument panel are low and slim, with a popup 6.5-inch standard LCD display in the center. The interior is trimmed and finished attractively, with high-quality panel fit.
We drove the A6 in Europe, models with European specs. We found the acceleration of the 2.0T, its passing ability on two-lane roads, to be satisfactory. The new 7-speed dual-clutch transmission is quick and smooth, although no more so than the Tiptronic automatic. It's used in the 2.0T mostly because it's more fuel efficient, but still not a lot. The 2016 fuel mileage hasn't been rated yet; it will be interesting to compare it to the 28 mpg combined that the 2015 got, with its CVT transmission.
We dove the supercharged 3.0T as well, and we can say that you can definitely feel the difference between 310 and 333 horsepower, passing on European two-lane roads. We can also say that, in the TDI, you can most definitely feel the rush that comes from the kick in the pants of its 428 pound-feet of torque when accelerating onto the freeway or past another car on a two-lane.
The 2.0T handling might be called unobjectionable, while being free of passion. The 3.0T is more engaging but still uninspired.
Meanwhile, the available active safety systems are getting more inspired all the time. A new feature for 2016 is called Side Assist and Active Lane Assist, which basically gently grabs your steering wheel if some cross-eyed camera tells some computer with invisible hands that you're moving into a lane with a car in your blind spot. Countless times we have seen these blind spot warnings be incorrect, going off at guardrails and raindrops, if not cars that are way way back there. So now we wonder, with this option, if control of your A6 will be taken over by some phantom robot who makes a lot more mistakes than you do.
The 2016 Audi S6 is capable of accelerating 0-60 in 4.3 seconds. The S6 handles well, with an adaptive suspension that balances ride quality and chassis control. Different modes are available for throttle and transmission. The 2016 S6 gets and EPA-estimated 18/27 mpg City/Highway, or 21 mpg Combined.
The A6 is expensive for a midsize sedan class that doesn't top its class in looks, interior space, or performance. But Audi quality is hard to deny, the 2.0T engine is golden, and Quattro all-wheel-drive is unbeatable.

As you know, pricing cars is particularly complicated. One of our duties at CarQuotes.com is to help our customers comprehend this process better.
CarQuotes.com Estimated Target Price is for research purposes only. It reflects a typical, negotiated price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, license and registration, and where applicable, finance charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. The Estimated Target Price is NOT a price quote from CarQuotes.com or any other dealer. If you request a price quote from a dealer via CarQuotes.com displaying an estimated target price, your price may differ.
Invoice is commonly known as the published amount that the dealer paid the manufacturer for the vehicle. This may or may not represent a close relation to the dealer's actual cost, but can be beneficial as a benchmark. This figure is available on many other web sites however CarQuotes.com adds an estimate of local and regional fees from manufacturer to the dealers to this price, which makes it very close to the actual invoice amount for cars at your local dealer.
MSRP is the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. This is a proposed price only. For most vehicles, the CarQuotes.com price is below this amount. Some high demand cars may be priced over this amount.
The CarQuotes.com Target Price is to be used as a general guide that reflects a typical, market price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. This price is based on our research and estimates of supply and demand in the marketplace. There are many factors that go into the final price of a particular vehicle including local supply and demand. Your final price may differ.
The 'base' price of the vehicle
All options that you select
Base Destination Charges — this is a charge that is added to the base price for every vehicle
Any related Estimated Manufacture to Consumer Cash Rebates. Note: rebates are subject to change at any time. Please make sure to confirm any consumer Cash rebates with your dealer representative at the time of purchase.
Local taxes, license fees and other local fees, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, and where applicable, finance charges — these fees are also excluded from Dealer Invoice and MSRP and would be excluded from most advertisements you might see.
Random 'special qualification' rebates — i.e., for new college grads only; for customers trading in a specific type of car. Ask your dealer Representative for more information on 'special qualification' rebates.
The Estimated CarQuotes Dealer Price is an estimate of the pricing presented to CarQuotes members from CarQuotes Authorized Dealers in your area, and is calculated by subtracting an estimated savings value from the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price ("MSRP") as well as a value that relates to invoice for the "ideal vehicle" you configured. Dealer documentation, administrative or similar processing fees are not included in the price estimate. Any vehicle configured on the CarQuotes website is an "ideal vehicle" and may not exist at a CarQuotes Authorized Dealer or any other partner dealer. Each Dealer attempts to match a member's vehicle preferences with the best possible selection from current, in-stock inventory.
The Estimated Savings represents the estimated amount of savings off of MSRP available to you from CarQuotes Dealers for a vehicle consistent with your configured preferences plus any customer incentives currently available. This is also true when it comes to CarQuotes estimated target prices. Your actual savings will depend on several factors including market conditions, the style of vehicle you select, installed options, dealer coverage, and applicable manufacturer incentives. Each dealer sets its own pricing.
In most cases, you must choose between these programs OR a customer rebate or a special manufacturer-to-dealer incentive that may or may not already be included in your CarQuotes.com Target Price. So, your final price may go up if you take advantage of special manufacturer financing. Credit Union members should contact their Credit Union loan department to determine what type of loan and financing options are right for you.
Please note that CarQuotes.com strives to include identified manufacturer incentives within the CarQuotes.com Target Price. CarQuotes.com does not administer these programs, which are subject to and often change without notice. Eligibility for these programs is subject to verification by a licensed auto dealer.
Ask your dealer representative for complete manufacturer program details for your area, and how participation in these programs will affect your price.
The base vehicle is the vehicle before any optional equipment or destination fees have been added. All of the standard features are included in the base vehicle.
This is the total charge for all optional equipment included in the configuration of your virtual vehicle. The Options charge varies depending on whether it is calculated based on the Factory Invoice or MSRP. Options are not included in the base vehicle price and are not considered standard features.
A Regional Fee is the fee a manufacturer charges a dealer to advertise and promote the vehicle in the dealer's market. CarQuotes also includes estimated manufacturer preparation charges (manufacturer charges to the dealer to cover any work done on the car prior to delivering it to the dealership) and fuel charges (the charge for the fuel in the tank when the buyer purchases the vehicle) in this total. CarQuotes attempts to include regional ad fees in its Factory Invoice calculations; other sites at times do not.
These are the amounts that manufacturers charge to deliver a vehicle from the factory to the dealership.
Customer incentives are also commonly known as customer cash or bonus incentives. These incentives are offered by manufacturers as a way of enticing buyers into purchasing a vehicle.
Dealer Invoice price may or may not bear close relation to a dealer's actual cost for the vehicle. In some cases, a cost for a vehicle may be significantly less than the invoice price originally paid for the vehicle. Any difference between invoice price and the dealer's final cost may be caused by many factors including factory refunds, rebates, allowances, or incentives which the manufacturer or distributor may provide to the dealer.

"A lot of fellows nowadays have a B.A., M.D., or Ph.D. Unfortunately, they don't have a J.O.B."
~Fats Domino
If you're a physician, you have graduated from medical school, and you're nearing the end of your residency or fellowship training, or practice as a physician currently, finding a job should be easy! But for a physician who finds herself in the unfortunate position of still looking for a job, here are some tell-tale signs for doctors who need to take a different approach in their job search.
1. You have been looking for a job for more than two months.
Have you been looking for a job as a practicing physician for over two months? Are you focusing only on advertised jobs? Did you know that most opportunities for practicing doctors are not advertised with physician recruiters or job boards, even in top markets like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Texas? If you are able to find those unadvertised positions, on your own or with a company like The Doctor Job, you can find a job in less than two months easily.
2. You've been working with a physician recruiter and have lots of calls, but no actual interviews with any hospitals, medical groups, or other physician employers.
Don't confuse opportunities from a physician recruiter with actual job openings. Many recruiters will post old ads on job boards or even fake ones just to gather resumes so that they can encourage you to take that job in Montana, even if you're looking in Florida. If you've been working with physician recruiters for several weeks but still don't have offers, it's time to take a different, more aggressive approach.
3. You keep hearing the same excuses from physician recruiters.
Physician recruiters charge an astronomical fee to physician employers. This means that unless you are a flawless candidate who happens to be looking in the same location where a recruiter has a contract with a hospital or physician group, recruiters cannot help you. Do you have licensing issues? An H-1B or J-1 visa? Are you over 50? Do you want to practice medicine in a big city? You'll hear nothing but excuses from every recruiter. You can go to 10 different physician recruiters and you'll get the same results – nothing.
4. Your physician recruiter has stopped returning your calls.
Doctors, if your recruiter isn't contacting you regularly, he or she cannot help you in your search for that best physician job. You're simply another name in their database that they use to market their undesirable positions.
So what can you do if your job search has stalled?
When, as a doctor, you first post your resume online and the calls and emails start pouring in from physician recruiters, it can be exciting and you may even feel like a rock star. Soon, however, you may find that you're left hanging in the wind – that the interviews don't exist and that those offers – if there are offers at all – are less than enticing.
You are a physician. There are employers in every city in every state in the country who want you and your skills. They may not be advertising their positions, but they're out there, and these physician jobs pay better, have better benefits, and are positions that you can envision yourself staying in for your career. The perfect job is out there, but you can't be passive, you can't rely on recruiters, and you can't ignore the realities of the job market. Visit The Doctor Job to read more about unadvertised physician jobs in "saturated" markets and how The Doctor Job can guarantee that you'll find that perfect job.

Leobanda cleans up in Dragons' Den contest for London housing association residents
15:52 16 June 2012
A north London woman has won the chance to change her life after triumphing in a Dragons' Den-style competition.
Islington resident Leobanda Balcazar answered a Start Your Own Business challenge put down by her housing association Arhag, which works across 13 London boroughs.
She has landed the top prize, funding towards establishing her business Maid Direct in the form of a £16,000 contract to provide cleaning services for a year to Arhag's refugee hostel and three blocks of flats in Newham.
The competition saw residents from five different housing providers take part in free training, followed by a meeting with business 'dragons' to pitch for funding to start their own businesses.
Leobanda, aged 54, of Moreland Street, Islington, arrived in London in 1996 from Colombia with her young son, but no English or prospects.
She spent seven years as a volunteer for the Latin American Welfare Group as she built up her English and began to take on domestic cleaning work.
As her English improved, Leobanda moved into clinical cleaning, working at UCL Hospital, and is now a supervisor in charge of the cleaning of three wards.
It is a far cry from her previous life in Colombia where she worked as a journalist and built up a medical clinic specialising in hyperbaric medicine and alternative therapies.
Leobanda said: "When I came to England, I could not continue work as a journalist, I did not have the language skills.I was used to being busy and I really struggled.
"Arhag has given me everything. In 2005, when I had nothing, they gave me a home of my own, and now they are giving me the confidence to build up my own business. I hope to be able to train and employ others, including Arhag residents. I am so full of ideas to build up the business.
"When I first started cleaning, I was shocked at how people treated cleaners, how they were not valued. I became determined to take pride in cleaning, and that is what I now try to inspire in the cleaners I supervise in the hospital."
Arhag chief executive Dorian Leatham said: "All who took part are exceptional people. Leobanda is an extraordinary person, and her presentation to the dragons gave us all the confidence we needed to place a contract with her.
"As unemployment grows and welfare reforms bite we are planning to commit additional funds to develop new opportunities to support and encourage small businesses, training and employment which improves the quality of life for residents.
"We will be looking at additional ways in which we can provide employment opportunities for residents to work with Arhag."
