So so sorry for your painful loss.

They are never with us long enough, they take a piece of our heart with them when they leave but we always know that at some point in time we will be joined with them again and our hearts will blend with theirs and we will both be whole again. Grace is no longer in pain and God just needed another wonderful dog by his side.

Vicky, I'm trying to catch up on the RTF board after lots of work and travel lately and just saw this. I'm so very sorry to hear of Grace's loss. She loved and was loved - and what more could a dog want in life? I hope the collective sympathy and condolences from this group continue to give you some solace in knowing you're not walking this path alone.

I went to my local Walmart on friday night and found the new DCUC 2 packs !! Batman and Robin (dynamic duo) and Aquaman vs Black Manta !
They did a nice job on Aquaman in this set, he looks awesome !
My brother found most of the Trigon wave earlier today at Wal-Mart. He's only missing Blue Devil, Cyclotron and Negative Man.

Also, Mattel has stated that the Legion will be getting quite a bit of focus next year, just as the New Gods did last year, and the Justice Society is getting this year. I'd consider Validus a prelude to that.
By not looking too big, I meant the figure itself. Validus, as you and countless comics have shown, should be much larger than the regular figures in the line. The way the figure is set up seems inadequately small for a C&C.

Who knew? Senegalese arrest, prosecution can be swift
Last week, a judge in Senegal convicted a man of assaulting three journalists outside their newspaper's office in the capital Dakar last month. The attack was not related to journalism, but the quick arrest and prosecution of the perpetrator serves as an instructive contrast between the handling of an ordinary crime and the handling of abuses against journalists in the line of duty - cases which are usually politicized, stalled, or both.

Raffle benefits ISP trooper with cancer
COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho - Troopers put their lives on the line every day, but now one Idaho state trooper needs help saving his life.
Sgt. Kevin Bennett has been an ISP trooper for 15 years and he is now battling cancer. When his co-workers found out about the diagnosis, there was no question he would do it alone.
"He's really involved in his church, loves kids and overall loves working for the state police," said Trooper Chris Donahue.Raffle benefits ISP trooper with cancer
Bennett was diagnosed with bone cancer a few months ago, and with tough treatment comes big bills.
Donahue donated a shotgun to raffle off.
"It was handed down from my dad and his uncle. It's a valuable item. I just decided 'you know what, I want to donate that and try to get some money and generate so we can help Kevin out,'" said Donahue.
Soon after Donahue's donation, Ed Santos of Center Target Sports heard about the the raffle and donated a $600 handgun.
"He's an officer in need and we're going to do everything we can to help provide that support," said Santos.
Another anonymous donor also gave a revolver.
The raffle tickets are selling quickly and have brought in thousands of dollars. The tickets are selling for $5 apiece and can be bought until Jan. 11. The winners will be announced on Jan. 25. For more information, call the ISP office.

Synopsis of interview:
Mrs. Estevez was born in Broadwater, Nebraska on November 7, 1919. Her parents were Maria Delgado Rocha and Elpidio Rocha. Her family came to Kansas City. The first place she remembers is the Kansas City, Missouri West Side. Their home on Holly Street has been in the family for 50 years. Her father worked for Cudahy's and Swift's packing plants. She attended Adams School, grades 1-6. Then she went to West High at 19th and Summit for two years and finished at Manual High. Many Mexican girls went to Jane Hayes Gates; boys to Lathrop, for vocational training.
She attended Our Lady of Guadalupe Church. A majority of neighbors belonged there. There also was a Baptist and a Christian church in the neighborhood. She belonged to Girl Scouts and local girl's social club. The Guadalupe Center was active, but her parents didn't feel it was necessary to attend because the family was large enough to entertain themselves.
She enjoyed swimming, roller skating, and reading. She swam at West High and occasionally at the Penn Valley public pool. Mexicans were allowed to swim at Penn Valley only on the day before the pool was cleaned. She recalls going to the Swope Park pool with a friend and being told they could not come in. She and the friend stood in line and would not let others get in until they finally were admitted. Afterwards, Mexicans were allowed to swim there.
A disturbing aspect of childhood was the school. The building was old and in such bad repair that the upstairs could not be used. Pupils were mostly Spanish. They were punished for using Spanish. Her parents spoke Spanish at home, her mother never learned English. Her father attended school at night to learn. She was active in junior and senior high with team sports. She saw no prejudice then, but later recognized some teacher's poor attitudes toward minorities. The teachers were poorly qualified to teach. The majority of students at West were Anglos and there were few Blacks. In later years the school became more equally divided because of a housing project. The school had no counselors and the teachers did not encourage students to continue schooling, but the parents did. Most of her girlfriends went on to Manual or Redemptorist.
Mrs. Estevez remembers no exceptionally hard home chores. Homework had to be done first. Her father was the sole supporter of the family. She left home around 1943 when she was married. She was not in Kansas City during WWII or the flood of 1951. She graduated from high school during the Depression. Her father lost his job, so he, a brother, and Mrs. Estevez went to work in the beet fields for 3 summers. The next oldest daughter, Ester, stayed in Kansas City to help care for younger siblings. She took classes in wiring, riveting, and blue print reading in order to get a job during WWII at North American Aviation. She worked there 1½ years until she married. She went to Florida because her husband was stationed there. She returned to Kansas City.
Her husband attended St. Benedict's and Kansas City Junior colleges and then transferred to Georgetown University in Washington, DC. They lived there 6 years. Her first son was born in Kansas City and her second one in Washington. Her husband entered the foreign service and was sent to Germany for 1½ years. Her daughter was born there. She returned to Kansas City again. Her husband got a job at City Hall as an administrator. They lived in an apartment on the West Side. She cared for her ill mother until she died. Her daughter was 2 years old. She worked for the Kansas City Public Library at West High for 8 years, then worked at the main library for 3 years. She left because she felt discrimination existed there, although it was subtle. When she left the library, she began working at the Institute for Community Services as an interviewer and secretary. She attended junior college part-time at night.
To avoid the problems she had endured in public schools, she placed her children in Catholic schools. The job at ISC was unstable because it depended upon federal funding. She needed a good job to help pay the children's education so she left after 2-3 years. She began working at Penn Valley Community College as a secretary. She has progressed to an assistant in the Community Services office. She helps schedule classes and encourages the community to make use of college facilities. She was divorced when the children were almost grown. Her daughter graduated from Loretto and her sons from Rockhurst High School. Her son, Richard, is now principal of Douglas Elementary school. Her second son, Ronald, completed two years at Kansas Ctat[State] and intends to go to Berkeley (California). Her daughter has a master's degree in special education from Kansas University and teaches in Topeka.
Mrs. Estevez feels pride in her job promotions. She still attends classes at Penn Valley. After her retirement, she would like to volunteer in the elementary grades helping Mexican-American students. She credits her parents with giving her the drive to continue school. Of 8 children still living from her family, 6 have professional degrees.

What a great opportunity to go test your hunting skills against those baby's. They have the crazy colors that most of the birds in that part of the world seem to have. I have seen them on TV, but I'm positive that would pale by comparison to seeing one up close and personal. What a sight! Tell him congrats from me.

ORLANDO -- There are lots of young companies on the expo floor at the NADA convention pushing this product or that service to help dealers.
But as far as I can tell, there's only one so young that it ought to be wearing diapers.
Chrysler Capital, the new financing venture between Chrysler Group and Banco Santander SA, was officially born Wednesday, but won't begin actually lending money until May 1.
Still, like a newborn gazelle on the savannah, Chrysler's four-day-old preferred lender was apparently strong enough to get a booth up and running for the herd of Chrysler dealers headed its way here in Orlando.
Chrysler Capital replaces Ally Financial Inc. in the preferred lender role for Chrysler Group dealers, providing consumer auto loans, floor planning, and other financial services.
The deal earned Chrysler a big check and opened a large door for a Spanish bank that looks longingly at American consumers. Dealers, of course, will be free to keep their business with Ally, and many are likely to do so.
Fledgling Chrysler Capital will have to rely on more than a shared name to win business in a highly competitive lending marketplace, and if it gets too aggressive, it won't be Chrysler's balance sheet that suffers -- it will be Santander's.
So if you're walking by the Chrysler Capital booth -- ironically located right next door to Chrysler Group's booth -- maybe give the newborn a little tickle under the cheek and a goochy-goochy-goo. After all, it's not an easy thing to bring a newborn to a convention.

The picture is not of great quality, but I thought you guys would like to check it out anyway.
The case is made out of acrylic,the back plate slides out for easy access and it has 2 grooves in the back of plate so you can hang it on a wall with 2 nails.
To secure the figures I used a non acidic temporary glue called Aleenes Tack-It,which drys nice and clear.
I have not put every classic SW-AF figure in the case yet,but I plan to have another case made for the prequel figures.
Hopefully hasbro will crank out some new figures.

You're throwing out so many hypotheticals, the argument could go any direction.
Players are in control of their bodies. JUST now, I mean minutes ago, a Line backer from the back field ran all the way to Drew Brees and took him off is feet, almost the identical line of the hit on Zach M. except the Linebacker aimed his helmet at the chest/shoulder area of Brees instead of at his face/chin.
It's best to err on the side of caution I think.
I have no idea what other HIT you're talking about. A link to the video would be good.

Hilari Bell has been called the poster child for persistence. The first novel she sold was the fifth she'd written, and when it sold she was working on novel fourteen. She now has seventeen conventionally published novels with two more under contract, and is now branching into epublishing her backlist novels and her writing tips.
She likes board games and "decadent" camping. (In a pop-up trailer with a space heater, a stove--even a toaster!) She says camping is the only time she gets to do enough reading...though when it comes to reading, there's really no such thing as enough.
She's also a member of the best writing critique group in the universe. (Her opinion, anyway.) And you can find their webpage at http://thewildwriters.com/

There's not a much better to wake up in the morning than to the smell of breakfast and coffee. Not many of us get to experience the joy of walking downstairs and fluffy omelets greeting us at the table, but it happens daily here at The Olde Savannah Inn. The friendly innkeeper, Kathleen is not a professionally trained chef, but you'd never know it. She grew up cooking, trying out recipes, and even enlisting the neighbors to try her dishes. Kathleen's perfectionist nature had her experimenting until it was perfect.
As she cooked to the sounds of smooth jazz, I saw fresh fruit and vegetables being sliced. Nothing canned here. Only fresh ingredients here. Nearby lies a French press gently creating coffee that's smooth and rich. I sat down at the table glancing at the beautiful view of the garden to my left. With knife and fork, I cut into the omelet and began to eat. The soft egg melts alongside the warm and creamy goat cheese. Tomatoes add bright notes, balancing the omelet. Truly an enjoyable experience.

About Jeff Masters
Cat 6 lead authors: WU cofounder Dr. Jeff Masters (right), who flew w/NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990, & WU meteorologist Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 9:42 PM GMT on June 25, 2008
An unusually early and dangerous fire season has hit California, where at least 33 fires burning over a total of 190,000 acres are active, according to the Interagency Fire Center. The fires were sparked over the weekend when an unusually far southward-moving storm system brought numerous thunderstorms to central and northern California. Over 8,000 lightning strikes hit the region. Most of these strikes were not accompanied by rain, since a very dry atmosphere at low levels caused much of the thunderstorm rain to evaporate before reaching the surface. The lightning strikes ignited an unusual number of fires, due to exceptionally dry vegetation in California. This year, the state experienced its driest spring season (March-April-May) since record keeping began in 1895, and much of the state is in moderate to severe drought.
Figure 1. Visible satellite image from NASA's Aqua spacecraft on Monday, June 23, 2008, showing smoke from hundreds of wildfires sparked by lightning in California. The red regions show where the satellite's sensor detected fires burning. The smoke has created air pollution levels in excess of the federal standards for fine particulate matter (PM2.5) over much of California's Central Valley. Image credit: NASA.
The forecast
With the dry season only beginning, it could be a record fire year in California. Even before last weekend's lightning storms, California had already seen an unusually large number of destructive wildfires, according to CalFire--90,000 acres had burned, compared to 42,000 acres during the same period last year. It is not unusual for large portions of the state to receive no rain at all in July and August, such as occurred last year (Figure 2). The jet stream typically moves far enough north in summer that the migrating low pressure systems that bring California most of its rain only hit the northernmost portions of the state. With high fuel levels due to a century of misguided fire suppression efforts, moderate to severe drought gripping the state, no rain in sight for months to come, and an above-normal chance of warmer than average temperatures forecast this summer for the state by NOAA's Climate Prediction Center, expect a record fire season in California.
Figure 2. Observed precipitation over California during 2007. Much of the state received no rain at all during July and August, which is a common occurrence. A little bit of thunderstorm activity did make it into the easternmost portion of the state, thanks to moisture flowing north-westward from the Arizona Monsoon. However, the Sierra Mountains block this moisture from reaching the central and western portions of the state. Image credit: NOAA.
It's quiet in the tropical Atlantic. There are no threat areas to discuss, and none of the models are forecasting tropical storm formation in the next seven days. Beyond a week from now, the GFS is hinting that the region off the coast of Africa could see some development, but it is still probably too early for this too occur, despite warmer than average sea surface temperatures in the region.

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
STARKVILLE – There were times last season when Wes Rea had no feeling in his right arm, which makes it sort of hard to hit a baseball. He'd often skip pregame batting practice altogether.
But Mississippi State's big first baseman played in all 64 games, batting .249 with five home runs and a team-leading 41 RBIs. With a new season less than two weeks away, Rea is feeling much better and says he's poised to have a breakout year at the plate.
The third-year sophomore has gotten past the shoulder injury that affected him last year. A cyst had grown over one of the anchors that had been inserted in his right shoulder when undergoing labrum surgery in high school, and that calcium deposit was "cutting" on his nerve.
"It's a total 180 as far as feeling and confidence and my swing and everything at the plate," Rea said. "It's totally different this year. It's a totally different swing, a totally different approach, and confidence is back. So it's good."
Rea basically took the summer off and also slimmed down, going from 290 pounds to a listed 272 this year. That's not the only noticeable difference in him.
Senior pitcher Kendall Graveman said Rea was swinging lights-out in the fall, and he hasn't let up.
"Not only Wes' ability and he's performing better, but the mental aspect of the game, and he's not swinging at bad pitches," Graveman sad. "He's doing things that he knows he needs to do to be successful. He relaxes more now at the plate."
Shortstop Adam Frazier, who led the Bulldogs in hitting last year with a .371 average, has noticed a more disciplined Rea who has a "better mentality at the plate with what he's going to do, a better plan."
High IQ, high hopes
One big trouble spot for Rea – what coach John Cohen calls "swing-and-miss." He struck out 68 times last season, second-most in the SEC, and endured a 1-for-41 slump at one point.
Cohen said he believes Rea will be better at making contact on a more consistent basis this season and likes his two-strike approach. He's also expecting Rea to become a better all-around hitter.
"He has such a high baseball IQ, and I think that's what most people miss," Cohen said. "They see the gigantic body and they just assume that they don't have as much baseball savvy. He has tremendous baseball savvy."
A year's experience should help Rea, too. He said being a freshman last year contributed to his troubles.
Still, he had a big impact on the team, especially defensively. Rea had a field percentage of .991, and he's earned the respect of his teammates so much that they voted him a co-captain along with Graveman.
"They've just seen me, my work ethic, they know what to expect out of me," Rea said. "They know they're going to get the same thing out of me every day. I think it's a big trust factor there."

8.30: Causes and Effects of Global Warming
What is the human cost of warmer temperatures?
Many lands are marginal for farming. When rainfall is normal or high,the lands can produce. When rainfall is low, no crops grow. Drought makes marginal lands unsuitable for farming. Drought can also make good lands more difficult to farm. These changes will increase as temperatures warm.
Causes of Global Warming
The average global temperature has been rising since the end of the Pleistocene. With some ups and downs, of course. Rising temperatures are natural for this time period. But natural causes cannot explain all the warming that's been happening. There is some other factor at work.
Recent global warming is due mainly to human actions. The actions involve releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Remember that greenhouse gases keep the atmosphere warm? And that carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas? When you burn fossil fuels, carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. The more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere the better the atmosphere can trap heat. In other words, an increase in greenhouse gases leads to greater greenhouse effect. The result is increased global warming. Figure below shows the increase in carbon dioxide since 1960.
How much more carbon dioxide was in the air in 2010 than in 1960?
Burning forests also releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Other human activities release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. For example, growing rice and raising livestock both produce methane.
Effects of Global Warming
There are already many effects of global warming being seen. As Earth has gotten warmer, sea ice has melted. This has raised the level of water in the oceans.
The overall trend in sea level since 1870 - it has risen about 9 inches.
The extent of Arctic sea ice in summer has been decreasing rapidly. The ice shown in the image below is the sea ice minimum in 2011. The yellow line is the median minimum ice extent for 1979–2000.
The sea ice minimum for 2011 was the second lowest on record.
Other effects of global warming include more extreme weather. Earth now has more severe storms, floods, heat waves, and droughts than it did just a few decades ago. Many living things cannot adjust to the changing climate. Coral reefs in many parts of the world are struggling to survive. Species are moving uphill where temperatures are cooler. Those at the top of the mountain are being run off. Migration and egg-laying behaviors in birds are off of their normal. There are many more examples of the effects of changing climate.

I'm glad to see those two bow out and I'm really glad Trump isn't running as an Independent. I don't know who I want but it sure wasn't either of these. I don't think I can go with Ron Paul, Mitt Romney or Newt either. What's a mother to do?

An unknown or Tea Party canidate will not beat Obama.
Honestly, I think we've reached a point where it probably doesn't even matter anymore who's President because we're so far down the drain. I don't know why anybody would want to be President unless your ultimate objective is to debauch the currency and overturn society and that's why Obama will run. He isn't finished with his destruction.
Since we've reached the debt limit and the Republicans say they aren't going to authorize a debt ceiling hike the Treasury is raiding the Federal pension plan to come up with more stash to spend. They'll soon be coming after private pensions, 401K's, IRA's, SEP's, etc. That's where the real money is! Get ready for it.
And more good news from the country's greatest ponzi scheme, social security. Apparently it doesn't work right with 20% unemployed/underemployed. Imagine that. And there aint nobody in Washington gonnna tackle that turd with an election coming up so social security will continue to run redder and redder.
So let's just lube up, grab our ankles and get this over with so we can maybe rebuild something for our kids.
We live in Cuba now.
Come back to apologize to all your buddies Roger?

Dry mouth, or xerostomia (zeer-o-STOE-me-uh), refers to any condition in which your mouth is unusually dry. Most often, dry mouth is the result of a decrease in saliva produced by the glands in your mouth (salivary glands), and it's frequently a side effect of medication. Less often, dry mouth may be caused by a condition that directly affects the salivary glands.
Dry mouth is a common problem. It can range from being merely a nuisance to something that has a major impact on your general health and the health of your teeth, as well as your appetite and enjoyment of food.
Saliva helps prevent tooth decay by neutralizing acids produced by bacteria, limiting bacterial growth and washing away food particles. Saliva also enhances your ability to taste and makes it easier to swallow. In addition, enzymes in saliva aid in digestion.
Treatment for dry mouth depends on the cause.
If you're not producing enough saliva, you may notice these signs and symptoms all or most of the time:
In addition, dry mouth may result in lipstick sticking to the teeth.
If you've noticed persistent dry mouth signs and symptoms, make an appointment with your family doctor or your dentist.
Dry mouth has numerous causes:
If you don't have enough saliva and develop dry mouth, this can lead to:
Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment.
Before your appointment, make a list of:
For dry mouth, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Don't hesitate to ask any other questions you have.
Your doctor or dentist is likely to ask you several questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor or dentist may ask:
To determine if you have dry mouth, your doctor or dentist likely will examine your mouth and review your medical history and all medications you're taking, including over-the-counter medications.
Sometimes you may need blood tests, imaging scans of your salivary glands or tests that measure how much saliva you produce to identify the cause of your dry mouth. If your doctor suspects your dry mouth is caused by Sjogren's syndrome, a small sample of cells (biopsy) taken from salivary glands in your lip may be sent for testing.
Your treatment depends on the cause of your dry mouth. Your doctor or dentist may:
If you have severe dry mouth, your doctor or dentist may:
In addition to the advice from your doctor or dentist, these tips may help relieve your dry mouth symptoms:
Avoid products that can make your symptoms worse. These include:
Saliva is important to maintain the health of your teeth and mouth. Taking these steps to protect your teeth may also help your dry mouth condition:
Several herbal remedies have been used historically to treat dry mouth, such as teas made from marshmallow or slippery elm, but there are no recent studies showing benefit or harm in using them for dry mouth.
Electroacupuncture, which involves stimulating traditional acupuncture points on the skin using electrodes rather than the traditional needles, looks promising in some studies on dry mouth treatment. However, researchers are still working to determine whether this therapy is truly better than others for dry mouth.

Why Doctor's Data Is Trying to Shut Me Up
Stephen Barrett, M.D.
Doctor's Data, a laboratory that perfoms tests for many chelation therapists and other offbeat practitioners, has sued me. The suit was filed on June 18, 2010, about two weeks after I received the this message from a lawyer who represents them:
Dear Dr. Barrett:
It has recently come to the attention of our client, Doctor's Data, Inc., an Illinois corporation, that you have, on a continuing basis, harmed Doctor's Data by transmitting false, fraudulent and defamatory information about this company in a variety of ways, including on the internet and in other publications. Doctor's Data is shocked that you would intentionally try to harm its business and its relationship not only with doctors but also with the public. Doctor's Data has also learned that you have apparently conspired with and encouraged individuals to seek litigation against it, and have filed false complaints at various government and regulatory agencies against Doctor's Data.
"It is never libelous," you have said, "to criticize an idea." However, you have gone way beyond the idea stage, and our client will not tolerate it. You apparently have carried on this conduct in an intentional manner and with the assistance of others. It is clear that you have a specific intent to harm Doctor's Data, and this conduct must stop immediately.
We demand that you cease and desist any and all comments regarding Doctor's Data, which have been and are false, fraudulent, defamatory or otherwise not truthful, and make a complete and full retraction of all statements you have made in the past, including those which have led in some instances to litigation. Such comments include, but are not limited to, those made in your article entitled, "How the 'Urine Toxic Metals' Test Is Used to Defraud Patients," which you authored and posted on Quackwatch.com. "The best evidence for reckless disregard," you have written, "is failure to modify where notified." Consider this notice to you that if you do not make these full and complete retractions within 10 days of the date of this letter, in each and every place in which you have made false and fraudulent, untruthful or otherwise defamatory statements, Doctor's Data will proceed with litigation against you and any organizations, entities and individuals acting in common cause or concert with you, to the full extent of the law, and will seek injunctive relief and monetary damages, both compensatory and punitive.
Doctor's Data is a CLlA-certified company in full compliance with all state and federal regulatory and CLlA standards, and your false, fraudulent, defamatory and otherwise untruthful comments have been made to intentionally damage Doctor's Data, Inc. This conduct will no longer be tolerated and if the retractions are not made as written above, the lawsuit shall be filed imminently.
Very truly yours,
Algis Augustine
I replied:
Dear Mr. Augustine:
Thank you for your letter of June 4th in which you accuse me of "transmitting false, fraudulent and defamatory information" about Doctor's Data. Your letter asks me to:
I take great pride in being accurate and carefully consider complaints about what I write. However, your letter does not identify a single statement by me that you believe is inaccurate or "fraudulent." The only thing you mention is my article about how the urine toxic metals test is used to defraud patients: (http://www.quackwatch.org/t). The article's title reflects my opinion, the basis of which the article explains in detail.
If you want me to consider modifying the article, please identify every sentence to which you object and explain why you believe it is not correct.
If you want me to consider statements other than those in the article, please send me a complete list of such statements and the people to whom you believe they were made.
Thank you,
Stephen Barrett, MD
Instead of specifying what was wrong, Doctor's Data's attorneys replied:
Dr. Barrett,
You have been making false statements about Doctor's Data and have damaged this company's business and reputation, and you have done so for personal gain and your own self-interest, disguised as performing a public service. Your writings and conduct are clearly designed to damage Doctor's Data. If you don't retract your false claims and issue a public apology, the lawsuit will be filed.
I replied:
Dear Mr. Levens:
My letter asked you to identify the claims that you believe are false. You have not identified a single sentence that you believe is inaccurate. Since you have failed to do so, I have no choice but to assume that you cannot. My offer remains open, as it is to anyone who is criticized on any of my sites. If you identify anything that you consider inaccurate, I will seriously consider what you say and act accordingly.
Thank you,
Stephen Barrett, MD
On June 18th, Doctor's Data filed suit against me, the National Council Against Health Fraud, Inc., Quackwatch, Inc., and Consumer Health Digest, accusing us of restraint of trade; trademark dilution; business libel; tortious interference with existing and potential business relationships; fraud or intentional misrepresetation; and violating federal and state laws against deceptive trade practices. (On June 29th, Consumer Health Digest was dropped as a defendant.) The complaint asks for more than $10 million in compensatory and punitive damages. The suit objects to seven articles on my Web sites:
- How the Urine Toxic Metals Test Is Used to Defraud Patients
- CARE Clinics, Doctor's Data, Sued for Fraud
- Be Wary of CARE Clinics and the Center for Autistic Spectrum Disorders (CASD)
- Three brief articles in Consumer Health Digest:
- Laboratories Doing Nonstandard Laboratory Tests
Provoked testing (administering a chelating agent before collecting a specimen for heavy metals testing) yields unreliable results. This is the prevailing scientific belief and has been the basis for many government actions against practitioners who administered such tests. Like the attorneys' warning letters, their suit objects to my opinion that provoked testing is used to defraud patients, but it fails to challenge my reasoning. Many others have criticized provoked testing, but my analysis may be more conspicuous than the others.
The lawsuit also asks the court to muzzle me:
WHEREFORE, DOCTOR'S DATA, INC., Plaintiff, prays that this court enter an order granting Doctor's Data a permanent injunction; direct them to remove or delete all disparaging statements and remarks pertaining to Doctor's Data from these or any web sites under their control; and prohibit them from publishing these or any other or additional such remarks on blogs, the aforesaid websites, or any other web sites pending the outcome of this litigation.
Status of the SuitThe suit complaint contained 11 counts. In January 2011, I asked the court to dismiss it for failure to plead the allegations necessary to support the elements of of the complaint. In judging an early motion to dismiss, the court must accept as true any factual allegations in the complaint. The judge denied the request for an injunction; dismissed four counts and part of a fifth; and ruled that discovery court proceed until June 2012, a date subsequently extended for more than a year. During discovery, we learned how Doctor's Data determined the reference ranges in its reports. Also, they made the amazing claim that their reports are not intended to suggest that provoked test results should be compared to these ranges (even though they provide a graph that compares them). In February 2014, we filed a motion for summary judgment, asking the court to dismiss the suit on multiple grounds. Unfortunately, defending the case has been quite time-consuming and expensive.
The Bottom Line
Very few people provide the type of information I do. One reason for this is the fear of being sued. Knowledgeable observers believe that Doctor's Data is trying to intimidate me and perhaps to discourage others from making similar criticisms. However, I have a right to express well-reasoned opinions and will continue to do so. If you would like to help with the cost of my defense, please follow the instructions on our donations page.
This article was revised on October 8, 2014.

About Environmentalism & Human Biotechnology
Environmentalists bring to the politics of human biotechnologies their long experience of the need for caution in the face of powerful new technologies, and for responsible social governance of technological innovation.
Environmentalists pioneered the precautionary principle, which counsels that the foreseeable consequences of new technologies should be evaluated in advance of their development and use, and that the burden of demonstrating their safety lies with their advocates and beneficiaries. Environmentalists also draw attention to the need for government to regulate markets in order to ensure public health and well-being.
Environmentalists' appreciation for appropriate technology and understanding that technical fixes are often inappropriate for social problems also hold important insights for evaluating human biotechnologies. Which biomedical, reproductive, and genetic applications of are worthy of support when measured against the principles of social justice, the common good, and the public interest? Which should we forgo? Which pose novel moral and political risks that require careful oversight and regulation?

When I think of Cape Cod, a cute little symmetrical home comes to mind.
With it's rectangular shape and single gable roof, it is a simple, yet effective design intended to withstand the cold Northeastern winters as well as sand and surf.  I was completely floored to learn that the Cape Cod area has a wide variety of modernist structures built generally between the late 1940's and mid 1960's.  Turns out many famous architects built their own summer cottages here as well, for example Walter Gropius  and Marcel Breuer designed homes for their families on Cape Cod.
Like many mid-century modern homes, these are in various states of deterioration and a group called the Cape Cod Modern House Trust is working to not only restore these houses, but collect information and document the history of the modern homes on the Cape, something which has never been done.
The underlying reason for some of this deterioration is an unusual one: Many of these homes have been sitting vacant, owned by the National Seashore. This is not due to lack of interested buyers, but from a government acquisition of the properties to create a state park on the Cape.  This buy-out took place in 1961 but allowed the occupants an option to stay in the house for another 25 years and in some cases, longer. Due to a fortuitous twist of fate, the government did not have the money to raze the houses as was originally planned so they remain, a silent reminder of the modernist history of that area in the last 50 years.  The goal of the Cape Cod Modern House Trust is to "Restore all seven of the Modernist houses owned by the National Seashore and reconfigure them into educational and cultural resources.â€

By Laura Tillman/The Associated Press
JACKSON — Last summer, Treshika Melvin read an essay that had her contacting everyone she knew. It was titled, "How to Slowly Kill Yourself and Others in America: A Remembrance," and the writer, Jackson native Kiese Laymon, was an alumnus of Melvin's school, Millsaps College.
In the early 1990s, Laymon spent a difficult year as a black freshman on the small college's mostly white campus. As he tried to grapple with the racial dynamics, he wrote essays for the school newspaper, only to watch then-President George Harmon shut it down in response.
Melvin, a senior majoring in psychology, saw her experiences at Millsaps mirrored in Laymon's alienation. Laymon struggled to make sense of a community in which white students seemed to break school rules without consequence, while he was punished for offenses as innocuous as improperly borrowing a library book. Laymon eventually was suspended for a year, and he transferred to Jackson State University. He ultimately completed his undergraduate degree at Oberlin College in Ohio in 1998.
"My experiences were not as extreme as his," Melvin said, "but it's just the feeling of being an outsider in a place that's kind of supposed to be your new home."
Melvin wasn't alone in her concerns. Administrators, conscious of the college's history of tense racial relations, also wanted culture changes at Millsaps, which is affiliated with the United Methodist Church.
The timing was right for Laymon's return to Millsaps.
Melvin and the college's Black Students Association saw in Laymon's essay an opportunity for fresh discussions on race, and lobbied for support from administrators to place him at the center of the dialogue. Predominantly African-American Jackson State University also responded to the essay and wanted to bring home Laymon, who is now an associate professor of English at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., and co-director of the school's Africana Studies program.
This week, Laymon returned to lead a two-part discussion titled "Necessary Tension: An Honest Conversation About Race, Art and Identity" at both campuses.
The discussion at Jackson State featured hip-hop artists and cultural writers, and focused on the relationship between art and identity.
The conversation at Millsaps tackled the complicated relationship minority students have with the college community, and explored ways the school can embrace diversity.
It coincided with a renewed effort to increase minority enrollment at Millsaps, which is about 80 percent white, and to make minority students feel more at home. During Laymon's time at the college, it was about 93 percent white.
A strategic development plan for the college, completed in May 2012, laid out the focus on diversity. Millsaps was founded in 1890, though minority students were not admitted until 1965. Its current enrollment is about 1,000.
"We recognize that all our students must have the opportunity to interact meaningfully with faculty, staff, and peers," said Rob Pearigen, the school's president since 2010. "If minority students fail to feel like full members of the Millsaps community, or if they do not form the meaningful relationships characteristic of a Millsaps education, it is all of us that suffer."
Laymon said he didn't expect to be invited back to Millsaps, but when Melvin approached him, it felt right.
"It made me realize that college as an experience is really there for students to try and fail and learn," Laymon said. He spent time with Pearigen, faculty and the Black Students Association, and taught a master class in creative writing.
In Tuesday's discussion, students queried Laymon about race relationships on other college campuses.
His answer: Millsaps is not alone in dealing with issues of inclusion; many small liberal arts colleges struggle with diversity, and no school serves as an example of handling it perfectly.
But, he said, Millsaps is set apart by its location in a predominantly black neighborhood in a state scarred by a history of racial division.
"I'll go to my deathbed saying that Mississippi is the richest cultural state in the union," Laymon said. "It's just got some big problems we haven't dealt with."
At the end of the conversation at Jackson State on Wednesday, Melvin said she felt a bit envious of the students at the historically black college.
"Part of me is like, I wish some of the support and love that's so inherent and apparent here could trickle over, but the sweet part about it is that it's inspiring," she said.
She said the challenge of forging a place at Millsaps offers another kind of reward.
"I'm able to grow and develop and interact with people who I'm not used to interacting with," she said.
Melvin and other members of the Black Students Association plan to meet with Pearigen next week as the conversation continues.
Laymon said he wasn't sure what to expect when he returned to campus.
"But as soon as I sat down with the students, I felt like I probably shouldn't be anywhere else on earth but here," he said.

text: This week we travel to Chevy's Milford Proving Grounds in Detroit, Michigan to get an intimate look at the design and engineering process the manufacturer puts its cars through. We also had a chance to get hands-on with the 2012 Chevy Cruze and just-introduced Sonic, and that included watching Chevy put the new compact car through a crash test. The Sonic was 100 meters at 40 MPH with the driver's side going head first into the metal object. Chevy says the Sonic is built to keep its frame as much as possible in the event of a crash.

You may notice that I have remodeled the webpage to include this little journal.
Note that, despite its name, I am not going to write about me or my daily life (not interesting at all) but mainly about topics related to Free Software and technology. Despite that I may write about other topics from time to time.
To insert journal entries is also a good way to announce updates in the webpage, so after any interesting update I will post a little description with the appropriate link.
An RSS index is available to follow this journal.

While I do think Teo draft stock will take a hit and probably drop him from top 10 pick to top 15 you don't judge a player off one game especially against a team like Bama. Bama O line was dominating the entire game opening up holes the size of highways. Teo basically had to crash the line every snap to compensate for the D line getting smashed.
"What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
Ive actually seen Luke whiff on tackles too. In college and in the pros. Know why? He's not perfect. Every player has a bad game.
Kuchely > Te'o. If Kuechly would have played for ND this year, he would have beasted too behind that Dline. Instead though, he played for a garbage BC team and still dominated at times. The guy had 191 tackles and 12 TFL his final year at BC. He's a tackling machine and great in zone coverage.
Te'o is not a bad player. I just think Kuechly is better. Te'o has had the luxury of being hyped up by the Notre Dame media bus.

|Trans fat can make food taste good, last longer on grocery-store shelves, and more hazardous for your heart.
"Trans fats raise your bad cholesterol just like saturated fats, but they also increase inflammation and lower the good cholesterol that protects us against heart disease," says Andrea Giancoli, RD, MPH, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association, in Hermosa Beach, Calif.
The good news? Many food manufacturers and fast-food chains have removed or reduced trans fat. But it still lurks in many foods—here are 22 to watch.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|Trans fat is made by adding hydrogen to vegetable oil.
Many restaurant chains have stopped frying food in hydrogenated oils, and recent research found that five in particular—McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Jack in the Box, and Dairy Queen—had significantly reduced trans-fat levels in french fries.
But others have been slow to embrace the trend: A large Cajun fries from Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, for example, still contains 3.5 grams of trans fat.
|Nutritional information might be harder to find for independent restaurants and local eateries than the big chains, says Giancoli, so it's smart to assume that anything fried or battered may have trans fat.
"You can certainly ask about the oil that the food is fried in," she says. "But even if they say vegetable oil, it could still be hydrogenated."
Your best bet, she adds, is generally to limit consumption of fried foods, which aren't the best for you, trans fat or not.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|Baked products are notorious for containing trans fat, but many major restaurant chains (such as McDonald's and Burger King) have removed hydrogenated oils from their apple pies.
You can still find the trans-fat varieties in your grocery store, however: Many varieties of Marie Callender's frozen fruit and cream pies have between 2 and 4.5 grams of trans fat per serving.
As for piecrust, Pillsbury Pet-Ritz Frozen Deep Dish All Vegetable piecrust contains 1.5 grams of trans fat per serving. Look for one without hydrogenated oils in the ingredients list.
|Not so long ago, margarine was marketed as a healthier alternative to butter because it's made from vegetable oil instead of dairy or animal products. But for the margarine to maintain its solid form, many brands (especially stick varieties) depend on hydrogenated oils and are high in trans fat and/or saturated fat.
Steer clear of Shedd's Spread Country Crock Spreadable Sticks (2 grams trans fat per serving), Blue Bonnet Regular Sticks (1.5 grams per serving), Land O'Lakes margarine sticks (2.5 grams per serving), and Fleischmann's original stick margarine (1.5 grams per serving), and instead opt for whipped, reduced-fat, or fat-free soft spreads.
|Crisco has come a long way in terms of trans fat—so far, in fact, that according to the label, the popular shortening now contains 0 grams. But a closer look at the ingredients list shows that partially hydrogenated oils are still there.
Companies are allowed to round down and put "0 grams" on the nutrition label if their product has less than .5 grams of trans fat per serving. But if you do a lot of baking—or a lot of eating once the cookies come out of the oven—those trace amounts can add up to unhealthy levels.
|Even if you find a cake or muffin mix that's trans fat-free, you could still see the telltale word "shortening" on many ingredients lists, which means there are trace amounts.
Plus, you still need to worry about how you're going to top your creation. Duncan Hines's frostings contain 1.5 grams per serving, while Betty Crocker's contain up to 2 grams. (Betty Crocker's homestyle fluffy white frosting mix, however, is trans fat-free.)
|Pancake and waffle mixes, too, often contain hydrogenated oils.
Bisquick's original pancake mix still contains 1.5 grams trans fat per serving, so opt for the newer (and trans-fat free) Bisquick Complete, Gluten Free, or Heart Smart formulas.
|Although you are less likely to find trans fat in frozen fried chicken, including Banquet and Walmart brands, there are still some offenders out there: Kid Cuisine All American Fried Chicken meal—a children's product—has 1 gram of trans fat.
Dining out at a restaurant? The same rules that apply to french fries apply to fried chicken (and fried fish, for that matter), says Giancoli. Unless you know an establishment does not fry in hydrogenated oils, assume that it does—or ask for clarification.
|Certain flavors of Haagen-Dazs ice cream—including pineapple-coconut, cherry-vanilla, caramel cone, green tea, and even plain old vanilla—contain 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving. But if you read the ingredients list, the telltale listing of partially hydrogenated oils is missing.
That is probably because there are naturally occurring trans fats in fat-containing dairy products, says Giancoli. However, it is not clear if these naturally occurring trans fats are as bad for you as the trans fats in processed food. They're high in calories, however, so you should still watch your intake.
|For coffee lovers, nondairy creamers can become an integral part of your morning. Over time, however, they can also add a considerable amount of trans fat to your diet. Take Coffee-Mate products, for example: Each serving contains 0 grams trans fat, yet, for most flavors (even the fat-free and low-fat varieties), partially hydrogenated oils are the second or third ingredient listed.
"At breakfast when you're making coffee, you're not usually thinking about nutrition or reading labels," says Giancoli. "The amounts can really sneak up on you if you drink a lot of coffee."
|Popcorn in itself is a healthy snack, and a serving of whole grains to boot. But when you pour on the gooey toppings, there's no telling what you're really adding.
Case in point: Orville Redenbacher's microwave popcorn. The Pour Over Movie Theater butter flavor contains 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving, and the Pour Over Caramel flavor contains 1.5 grams.
Pop Secret is even worse: The butter and extra-butter flavors each contain 5 grams of trans fat per serving—about 15 grams per bag!
|Just as with dairy products, beef can also contain natural trans fat. So although the big chains have worked hard to remove hydrogenated oils from their fried foods, most restaurant burgers still contain significant levels of trans fat.
You'll also find trans fat in many frozen burgers, beef sausages, beef hot dogs, and ground beef.
"Most of us should be reducing our consumption of animal products anyway, so it's a good idea to limit these products and choose plant-based foods instead," says Giancoli.
|Oreos phased out trans fat in 2006 after Kraft Foods was sued by the Campaign to Ban Partially Hydrogenated Oils. (The lawsuit was dismissed.) Chips Ahoy!, Nilla Wafers, and Girl Scout cookies also now fall below 0.5 grams per serving, although some still contain partially hydrogenated oils.
Check other store-bought cookies and cookie dough: Carr's ginger-lemon creme cookies contain 2 grams of trans fat per serving and Pillsbury's Ready To Bake cookies contain up to 2.5 grams of trans fat per serving. "Anything that can sit on a shelf or in a package for a while needs to be stabilized, which often means it's hydrogenated," Giancoli says.
|Many chains—Burger King, McDonald's, and Popeyes—now offer biscuits with 0 grams of trans fat per serving. Although most Cinnabon locations are trans fat–free (including all locations in California and New York), it still creeps into the products at some. Krispy Kreme's large cinnamon and pecan rolls still have 1 gram each.
And check the grocery-store type. Pillsbury's refrigerated Grands! Homestyle Butter Tastin' and Grands! Homestyle Buttermilk contain 3 grams each. The brand's caramel and Cinnabon cinnamon rolls with icing contain 1 and 2 grams of trans fat per serving, respectively, and many of the varieties that list 0 grams still contain hydrogenated oil.
|Doughnuts are often the poster-child food for trans fat, but in 2007, Dunkin' Donuts reformulated their menu so most items now contain 0 grams per serving (or at least fall below 0.5 grams).
Unfortunately that's not always true for breakfast sandwiches served on biscuits, such as Burger King's, some of which contain 1 gram of trans fat. And at the grocery store, steer clear of Jimmy Dean packaged sandwiches, which have up to 3 grams of trans fat each.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|Krispy Kreme has also reduced trans fats in their doughnuts to below 0.5 grams per serving, but there's still a surprising non-doughnut source of trans fat on their menu—the worst item on our list, in fact.
A 20-ounce Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Arctic Avalanche contains a whopping 9 grams of trans fat. Across the board, many of the restaurant shakes and creamy drinks we looked at contained a gram or two (hot chocolate beverages too), but nothing came close to this over-the-top blend of soft-serve ice cream and cookie dough mix-ins.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|You're packing more than just protein when you snap into a Slim Jim: The Giant size Dare and Monster versions of this jerky strip contain 1 and either 1.5 or 2 grams of trans fat, respectively. (The original, smaller snack sticks also contain trans fat, which occurs naturally in beef, in smaller amounts.)
Instead of processed meat sticks, aim to eat more plant-based snacks such as fruit or raw vegetables. And get most of your protein from heart-healthy fish, poultry, lentils, soybeans, and nuts.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|Nabisco's Premium Saltines, Stoned Wheat Thins, and Ritz have trans-fat levels below 0.5 grams per serving, but some varieties contain partially hydrogenated cottonseed oil in their ingredients lists. If you eat more than a few crackers, even this small amount will add up.
To be sure you're buying crackers that contain no trans fat, Giancoli suggests reading the ingredients list before even looking at the nutrition label. Choose snacks that avoid hydrogenated oils altogether, such as Stacy's Pita Chips or Annie's Bunnies.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|"Read labels carefully when you're in the frozen-foods section," says Giancoli. They are likely to contain trans fat not just to make the foods more stable but also to give them a fattier feel in your mouth, she adds.
Frozen dinners and microwave meals are some of the biggest problems. Marie Callender's country fried beef, grilled chicken bake, tortellini Romano, and fettuccini alfredo dinners, for example, all contain at least 0.5 grams of trans fat each.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|La Choy's ready-to-eat chow mein and rice noodles can provide a tasty crunch in salads or stir-fries, but they also deliver 1.5 grams of trans fat per 1/2-cup serving. (For a similar but heart-healthy crunch, try slivered almonds instead.)
Hydrogenated oils can also lurk in packages of ramen noodles and microwave soup cups.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|Several varieties of Wolf Brand canned chili—with and without beans—contain between 1 and 1.5 grams of trans fat per serving.
A better bet is the company's trans-fat free turkey chili, which also has fewer calories and less saturated fat.
(Credit:Getty Images)
|Snack Pack's Dessert Twists Caramel Cream Pudding may be "made with real nonfat milk," but it's far from a health food. The caramel cream flavor contains 1 gram of trans fat, and all flavors pack between 8% and 10% of your daily allowance for saturated fat.
The brand's other flavors all claim no trans fat on their nutrition labels, but it's a good idea to read the ingredients list of any pudding or creamy dessert to rule out low levels of hydrogenated oils flying under the radar.

Grand Prize-Winning Recipe 2007! Potato chips are the secret ingredient that keep sweet in balance with salty in a candy-like toffee bar.
This recipe was one of fifteen winners in the 2007 Mix It Up with Betty! Cookie Mix Recipe Contest. More than $10,000 was awarded!
Refrigerating the bars for 30 minutes sets the chocolate so cutting and serving are a snap.
Line the pan with foil, leaving the edge of the foil above the rim of the pan on two opposite sides. Lightly grease foil in pan. Bake bars as directed. When cool, use foil "handles" to remove the bars from the pan. Cutting and cleanup are now a snap.

May be that Compatability of horoscopes for Marriages, remedial measures in delayed marriages, progress in the studies and higher-level of education , getting jobs, promotional chances, financial stability, health problems,disputes in the family and outside, monetary-problems,tensions, worries etc. I will advise some remedial measures also for propitiating the planets i.e.,Santhi, Homa, japa, Navadhanya-daana , Ratna-dharana etc.,calculating the strength of the planets, and the running mahardasas in their Zodiacal birth signs. Even then, frankly speaking, WE SHOULD experience some Negative results, what ever Parihaara you will do. I feel that my MASTERS will speak through me. This is all my MASTER'S Voice, what I feel in my predictions. If my predictions are correct the CREDIT goes to my Masters and Gurus only. Regarding Vasthu also, I will suggest some techniques, to benefit for the entire family members.I am a volunteer since 25.02.2009 ..My contact Numbers....+91 9849519456., and +91 8465846856
I have been following this subject for more than 40 years and I have responded to more than 5700 queries till now, through this channel. In the areas of Astrlology and Vasthu, I have done some services to the public,voluntarily. If anyone offers Guru dakshina, I will spend the same for..Dharmic sevas,like oldage-homes, orphanages, etc., as a squirell's help. I want to help the physically handicapped people... Astrology (jyothishyam) is an infinite and in-depth subject. I will learn everyday, from every one. It's study is an on-going and all-round learning from the live experiences. Even today,I frankly agree that I am a student in this subject.No one can claim that he is a Master, except he is a Tapaswi or Maharshi. The Depth of this subject is beyond a human's recognition, to speak frankly and OPENLY.
Professionally speaking, I am a Retired Manager, in State Bank of India .With a service-motto, I do these voluntary-astrological services, and give Vasthu ( house-related) suggessions.To help others is my Ambition,Hobby and my Motto. Through Internet and Mobile calls( whats app) I do these services. At present through this channel, everyday, I attend 2 or 3 mails. I may increase it in future.
So-far,I have not published anything. I may publish in future, if my Masters, Gurus and Elders bless me.And also if you all, readers and writers support me.
Basically ,I am a post-graduate in Economics i.e.,M.A(Economics). Ancestorly, I learnt this subject from the Basics from my father's brother Sri.Jagannadheswara sarma (Late), and from my father Sri.Ahobaleswara sarma (late). And,in the begining, I have read some pages of Astrological texts, like Brihat Parasara, Varaha samhita, Kalamritham etc. I used to be a subscriber for B V RAMANS Astrological magazines, for some time.I have learnt this subject partly,from my elders, in my child hood, and still practicing and knowing the subject everyday.I am very much fond-of this subject. I do believe in its reality. This is an ancient subject.I repeat that this is 70% or 80% true, depending upon the Place, time and accuracy of birth. UPAASANA is adequately and mostly essential for some predictions.
Awards and Honors

The only FOTR items I have so far is the Baromir 2-pack, and the Cave Troll. Sadly, I remember my "secret" KB having tons of them, but they just sold them recently now that I went back to get them.
The Baromir from the 2-pack seems to not be of the same quality of the other figures. And I got Aragorn from TTT, but, well, it doesn;t look like Aragorn, and the action feature really takes away from the figure.

Christmas in July
It may be the middle of summer, but online retailers should be thinking about the Christmas retail season. In our experience here at Mercedes Distribution Center, we have found that how you prepare in the summer is how your fulfillment operations will handle the surges in sales that take during the winter holidays. Waiting until mid-to-late fall to make adjustments is too late, and assuming, especially as a startup company, that no special preparations for the holidays need to be made can be outright disastrous.
The unfortunate reality is that many retailers identify fulfillment issues when it's too late. Those protocols and processes that work fine for moderate volume are exposed by the pressures of sudden spikes in sales, revealing fundamental problems that cannot be changed on the fly. The result? Breakdowns in the order fulfillment assembly line cause delayed or wrong orders and returns, which, in turn, lead to unhappy customers and missed business. Many a startup retailer have ultimately failed as a business because of this inability to scale. Sometimes, all it takes is one failed retail season.
If you're an online retailer, don't wait until you have a problem to holiday-proof your fulfillment operations, especially if you're a startup. Audit your processes. In fact, hire an outside consultant, someone with more objectivity and expertise, to make that assessment. In our experience, there is always some issue that the retailer did not foresee.
