Comment posted Terrell Owens Faces Off Against Baby Mamas On Dr. Phil by Nic.
Of course they look at the mother's income, but half of nothing is nothing. Everyone knows this so as a man why wouldn't he protect himself? We all make choices in life that affect where we ultimately end up.
The reality is this – had he not gone belly up these women would still be collecting that money whether you and people like you like it or not. Because thankfully there are judges that don't care how the parents or the general public feels and are only concerned with the well being of the child. And in America we don't think it is okay for a dad that makes millions of dollars per year to pay as little as a man with a blue collar job. The issue is not whether the child can live off of less, the issue is what the court says the child is entitled. These kids did not ask to be born into this foolishness so their financial support should not be based on how their daddy feels about their mother.
If you are saying you'd be happy getting $500 per month (or whatever you think is enough) rather than what your child is entitled to by law then I'm sure a lot of these guys will be dying to get your phone number. I just think it's a shame that you wouldn't want more for your child so that they could have the same amenities as other children who have dads at the same income level enjoy.
You keep talking about how other women are living off of less. Should your kids have to live off of less than their dad can provide because the girl down the street has to or is able to? That's why what you say doesn't make sense. You are comparing apple to oranges.
Nic also commented
- Because the courts cannot legislate common sense. Just because TO and his baby mamas are irresponsible why should everyone else have to suffer. Any congressman/woman that proposed such legislation as you are suggesting wouldn't get re-elected or thrown out of office.
- No Makai everyone does not do it. There are stay-at-home moms that don't do it. And a lot of men who can afford it, like this arrangement because they want the mother of their child to care for their kids. And when done properly (meaning your focus is not on watching television, talking on the phone, etc) taking care of kids and maintaining a home is a full time job. It's a huge job.
I'm at a disadvantage because I do not know what the average person pays for childcare. However, if you use a reputable agency to employ a nanny or (if you've got big money) a governess (which means he or she usually has a degree in education), it is not cheap. With these women's resources they would probably have to go the daycare route which is $2-3K per month. If your child is older and in school – aftercare is expensive as well. It's almost about as much as daycare but slightly cheaper. And this does not include all the extras we get charged. The point is the daycare owners' rents are higher in the burbs, as is their heating, electricity, insurance, and it costs them more to hire staff because women in the burbs want childcare providers with a background in education. Just to be a teacher at our local public school you have to have a master's in education with 3-5 yrs of experience. Some schools also hire chefs because the moms insist on the same high quality foods they serve at home. And all those costs are passed on to the parents.
To answer your question about what makes them so special, I'd say TO made them worthy of getting that much money in the courts eyes when he got them pregnant. As a result these women felt like they had just won the sperm lottery and decided that the child support would be enough money for them to stay home. I think the courts do take into consideration that the BM is using a portion of that money for herself. It's just like when you own a business but you use your car. You can write a portion of that off on your taxes at a set percentage because it would be impossible for the IRS to determine how much business vs personal wear and tear you put on your car. The same way it is impossible for the court to determine how much heat the kids use or how much of the grocery bill goes to them. Take transportation – if she didn't have any it would have to be provided. It is cheaper for him to buy a car than pay a driver. And no court is going to ask the kids to take the bus when their dad is driving a sportscar.
- @ mesamese
Maybe I heard wrong but I thought one mom said he had not paid her in 6 years. But my comment was geared toward those who are acting like back in the day when he was making that money that he shouldn't have had to pay that much.
And these leeches should have gone to mediation instead of court to iron out a new agreement that would allow him to lower the child support. I think their only concern is picking his carcass dry before the others beat them to it.
The bottom line is when you get women like this pregnant, how can you expect any better. I mean they only went to bed with him for the money so at what point did he think they were going to morph into decent human beings?
- @umm
Add a zero to everything you spend and that is what it costs those of us who live in that zip code.The heating/electric bill that costs you $100, cost us $1,000 real talk.
- Half of nothing is nothing Makai. There income is looked at. What do you want the judge – who is only looking out for the kids – to do? Leave these kids with less than nothing because their mothers are stupid?
Rich men have no sympathy for TO. They see him as a fool because he could have avoided all of this by using a condom. There are a lot of NFL players that do not have all these kids by all these different women. So it shows it is possible to have sex with multiple women and not make a baby.

- Chad Johnson's Baby Mother Is Ready To Throw Him In Jail Over Late Child Support
@mommy of 4 sonsI see your point, but if you are the rich person you are the one who has everything to lose so you should protect yourself. Also most people who make or have made the kind of money Chad did/does should have tucked some away for a rainy day. At the end of the day he is not the average man. He had access to financial planners and should have put money away for his kids. Also why keep having so many kids?
A while back they had a program on ESPN that explains why these guys go broke – I wish I could remember the title so you could find it on Youtube, but the common mistakes was lack of financial planning and having all these kids with all these women. And then you look at someone like Carmelo Anthony that has 1 wife and 1 kid and he's making more than Chad. So it's like some men clearly get it and others seem to need a judge to explain it to them.
- Chad Johnson's Baby Mother Is Ready To Throw Him In Jail Over Late Child Support
Wow…you sound really mad Mrs Idris Elba – I don't wish death upon you so go get a latte from Starbucks and calm down. And I have no reason to kill myself – I have a great life, but thanks for giving me something to laugh about. I'll try to remember what a loser I am as I walk through my gated community tonight with my husband after dinner.Forgive me for not knowing Chad fathered another child but it's hard to keep up when he does it so often and with so many women he isn't married to. And you're actually defending him…why? Instead of getting mad at me why don't you send your idol Chad a box of condoms for Christmas?
- Chad Johnson's Baby Mother Is Ready To Throw Him In Jail Over Late Child Support
@Mrs. Idris ElbaAnd what happens when she can't pay her rent/mortgage? – she will wind up on welfare and then all of us will have to pay for her low income housing. She and irresponsible Chad-make-a-baby-with-every-woman-on-twitter BOTH need to pay for their kid – not the rest of us.
Obviously he wasn't concerned about how this kid would eat either since he added another baby mama to his roster. Clearly it's time for a judge to get involved since Chad is too stupid to manage his own life.
- Chad Johnson's Baby Mother Is Ready To Throw Him In Jail Over Late Child Support
I don't know why you got voted down for common sense advice. It's always the men with multiple baby mamas and multiple kids crying about support payments. Once baby mama is a mistake. Two makes you a dummy. Over that it's a pattern where this man obviously doesn't give a f- how many kids he fathers or how he's going to take care of them. - Chad Johnson's Baby Mother Is Ready To Throw Him In Jail Over Late Child Support
Oh no not you King23! You usually make sense.Two things about this blog – everyday is an education and you all make me so happy I married my husband.
On topic:
I don't know where you all live, but in my area daycare (and this was 5 years ago) was $2K a month < – I thought I'd point that out since everyone assumes this woman is better off out working. So now she is down to $3K per month. Where I live there is no low income housing as it is all residential. To rent a two bedroom, 1 bathroom 1,600 sq ft home (the cheapest I could find) she would pay $3,250 per month and that is not even in the good section of town with the best schools. If she lived in the better section she would pay $4,850 for the same property with less square footage. So in my area she'd be at -$250 per month and she hasn't even turned on the electricity or purchased any clothes for their child.Major cities like NYC, Miami and DC are costly. Even though commuter/bedroom communities are a little less expensive – it is still not by much. Our new neighbor is from FL and she says our area is less expensive so I can only imagine what this woman has to pay to keep her son in a descent area. And not everyone can live wherever you all are because you have to go where you can find work.

Inverse Liability coverage is part of your Basic Autoplan and covers your costs if you crash outside B.C. in Canada or in the U.S., where local law may say you cannot claim against the other driver.
In some parts of Canada and the U.S., the law does not permit seeking compensation from the other driver after a crash. This means that you (or ICBC) would not be able to claim against the other driver and would have to pay the costs of repairing your vehicle. The Inverse Liability portion of your Basic Autoplan policy covers some (or all) of the costs that would otherwise be your responsibility.
Inverse Liability coverage is specifically for the repair of your vehicle after a crash. Inverse Liability does not cover you for any medical or rehabilitation costs. The Accident Benefits portion of your Basic Autoplan would cover the injury portion of an Inverse Liability crash.
Inverse Liability provides the vehicle payout you would be entitled to if you were able to claim against the other driver.
It covers the cost of repairs for as much as the other driver was found to be responsible. This means that if another driver was 75 per cent at fault for your crash and your car will cost $1,000 to repair, you will get $750.
If you do not have Collision coverage, you will be required to pay the remainder of those costs (e.g., $250 in the above example.)
Because Inverse Liability coverage only pays for the percentage that you were not at fault in a crash, you might consider purchasing Collision coverage, which covers you even when you are 100 per cent at fault for the crash.

Archos 5 Internet Tablet Android-based PMP
The world's first Google-based media machine
Review At first glance, you could be forgiven for thinking we were re-running a review from last year - we originally put the Archos 5 through its paces in October 2008. The addition of two extra words to the end of the name may not sound that exciting initially, but while the Archos 5 Internet Tablet may look very similar to its predecessor there is one very significant change: it now runs Google Android.
Archos' 5: homegrown OS out, Google Android in
Gone is Archos' own - not exactly super swish - Linux-based OS and in its place sits Google's Linux-based mobile operating system, the first time that it's been seen in an official capacity on a shipping product that's not a phone.
However, it's probably worth getting this out of the way early on: not all Android devices are created equal. Yes, Android is an open source operating system that any manufacturer can download and install onto its hardware without paying a fee. However, don't expect it come with all the applications you're accustomed to seeing on phones from the likes of HTC, for example. Specifically, you won't find Google's suit of apps on there by default since Google doesn't give those away for free.
So, while you will find the core Android functionality, you won't find the apps that make up what's termed the Android Google Experience - which means no Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps, Calendar and Google Talk.
Perhaps the app you'll miss most, though, is Android Market, Google's equivalent to Apple's App Store. Archos has strung its own version together called AppsLib, which promises to showcase free and paid software developed specifically for the Archos 5's larger screen, but it has nowhere near as many apps as the official Google phone-centric offering.
Apps, apps and more apps
You can also go down the DIY install route for some apps. Point the browser at m.spotify.com, for example, and you can manually set up Spotify by selecting one of the HTC versions and then clicking the link labelled "manually download the application". A slick experience, however, it is not.
Beware Nicolas Charbonnier aka Charbax
Nicolas Charbonnier is better known as Charbax, the #1 Archos fanboy who will go on every Archos review and try to tell the world that they will be fixing all of the problems some time soon. His forum is just him cheer leading for Archos. So take his comments with a grain of salt. He's rather like the Microsoft dude in the Apple commercials, promising that the new version of Windows will not have the problems of the last version.
Nicolas Charbonnier=charbax owner of archosfans
Don't listen to charbax. He's such a archos fanboi.
He has a site dedicated to being a archos fanboi.
He gets a boner from hearing the word archos.
This guy is a tard and a tool.
He literary responds to each and every archos type review to defend why archos makes such
crap products.
This Tool went so far as to buy stock in the failing company.
So take charbax comments on archos be reliable with a grain of salt.
He said all the previous models which now has no support were great also.
Charbax =http://www.reghardware.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/fail_32.png
all negative comments from the same troll
I'm using the Archos 5 Internet Tablet with Android using the iGo stowaway bluetooth foldable keyboard to write this comment, it works absolutely awesomely and replaces my laptop when output on my 42" HDTV using the HDMI output.
Media playback and Internet Browsing is close to perfect even now with just Android 1.5 firmware, which was only supposed to work for A couple HTC phones. With the updates with Android 1.6 and 2.0, Archos will get all the wvga apps, Google Marketplace and all that so it will rteach closer to perfection.
Screw Archos
I have an AV500, really nice unit, never seen any other device (even PC software) that can ffwd/rew through video files as well+quick as this unit can, external recording is nice - but the kicker is the HD in my unit now has a few errors on it and Archos have implimented software locking so I can't replace the drive myself. Physically it's possible to swapt the drive out, which I tried but it just refuses to use the new drive. I tried contacting them through support email wanting to pay them to do the replacement - no answer.
Utter utter bastards.
Never gonna buy Archos stuff again, especially as it seems you have to buy codecs to play back standard video formats and if you want to record from cameras etc. you need to buy a plethora of docks for the damn things.

Last year, while attending a student play at Redondo Union High School - so my son could get extra credit in a class - a woman sitting next to me mentioned the name of someone I hadn't seen in more than two decades.
Excuse me, did you say `Tim Baumgartner?' I asked the woman.
"Yes, do you know him?"
"I had a math teacher at Hawthorne High named Tim Baumgartner," I replied.
"I think Tim worked at Hawthorne years ago," she said.
She then pointed him out to me in the audience.
I walked over to introduce myself and was flattered that he remembered me. I was also a bit surprised and may have babbled a bit too much.
I'm 42, but I still remember fondly some of my old teachers.
That mini-reunion with Mr. Baumgartner came to mind when my father told me about his own encounter with one of his teachers.
Just last week, Dad learned that his high school math instructor was living in the San Francisco Bay Area.
So Dad called him.
"He remembered me!" Dad told me afterward.
Dad is 79.
Teaching can be a much politicized and maligned profession - sometimes even more so than journalism.
In addition to being mocked for "exorbitant" pay and benefits on the public dime, teachers also must deal with the hassle of dealing with difficult, rowdy or challenged students and parents.
And teachers don't make much money compared with many other professions that require a
But there are unique benefits to this profession in addition to receiving Christmas gifts from grateful students and parents.
For teachers who care, the gifts keep coming long after the students have moved on.
Good teachers inspire, reassure or otherwise enrich a child's life.
And children carry that with them into adulthood.
I saw this firsthand when I got engaged to a girl from the town where my father started his career as a math teacher decades ago.
In 1994, when Dad traveled from the South Bay to Ya'bad, in the West Bank, to attend my engagement ceremony, dozens of his former students came out to see him.
And they were flattered when Dad remembered them after all those years.
His students were mostly parents or grandparents by then. But to be remembered by a long-ago teacher who cared meant a great deal to them.
And it meant just as much to Dad.
Teaching is one of the few professions where you can reconnect in such a meaningful way so many years later.
My son and two daughters already talk about their favorite teachers.
I can only assume that my children will remember them even when they are 42.
Or even 79.

The Morning Cram [pinterest police edition]
From NPR: Pinterest isn't just for crafts and recipes anymore. A Pennsylvania police department has been pinning photos of people with outstanding warrants. It's seen a 57 percent increase in its warrant services and the public is calling in to the station with information about the pinned criminals.
Kentucky: Murray State basketball player Zaveral "Zay" Jackson has been indicted for one count of second-degree assault and one count of wanton endangerment. There's now an app that will take you through historical Kentucky sites related to Abraham Lincoln. Storm sirens in Murray, Hazel and on Murray State's campus are being tested this morning at 9 a.m.
Tennessee: Tennesseans can get free flu vaccines at their county health department clinics.
Illinois: The state gets an almost $35 million grant to improve early childhood education. Illinois hunters killed more than 99,000 deer during firearm season. The Emergency Unemployment Compensation program is ending after being extended earlier this year.

This past weekend I made a cake from scratch for the very first time in my life. It was something I had on my bucket list and I'm really proud of myself! This was no plain-Jane vanilla cake - this was red velvet with brown sugar cream cheese frosting! Aside from every inch of me being covered in red (!) it was really easy. One thing I should have thought through was the cake plate. I figured I'd be fine and didn't need anything flashy - but once I finished my masterpiece I wished I'd had something just as grand to showcase it on. Here's some I would have loved to have:
1. Jadeite Cake Plate
2. Red Cake Plate
3. Juliska "Berry & Thread" Small Cake Stand, Ice Blue
4. Emma Cake Stand
5. Vintage Fenton milk glass cake stand
6. Rosanna Rococo Black Cake Stand
7. Porcelain Doily Cake Plate
8. Signature Now & Then Olive Cake Stand

Resolution FAQ - (Stacia Naquin)
Updated: 05/14/2013 - I'm still focused on meeting my goal of doing a pull-up. And I'm almost there! But I'm always getting this question:
Salida's Police Chief says the 12-year-old girl wrote the list, entitled "people I want to kill". The list was turned over to the principal of Salida Middle School.
The parents of the two children on the list weren't notified of the list until at least 24 hours after the principal received it, and the police were only notified by the parents, not the school.
School officials say they decided to investigate the matter internally. But, parents say, that was not the right course of action. The school's principal says he followed district policy in dealing with the threat.
That is, he says, they were insuring the safety of all the children in the school. And he says, the parents of the girl who wrote the list, were notified immediately and she was sent home. But, he will not say what sort of punishment, if any, the girl has received.
The D.A's office will decide if menacing charges will be filled against the girl.

On Thursday, Washington Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall was approached by reporters as he was coming off the practice field. They asked him about the $30,000 fine he received from the NFL for his altercation with an official a couple of weeks ago.
Hall replied to the reporters by saying, "Back up off me, bro," and then kept it moving.
Hall deserved the fine he got for disrespecting an NFL official. As much as he wants to believe it wasn't his fault, he needs to take responsibility for his actions.

Computex 2002 Coverage - Day 1
It's summer in Taiwan and that can only mean one thing... Computex. Computex is regarded by many as one of the most interesting and exciting computer trade shows in the world and is the biggest computer trade show in Asia. Each year, thousands of people from all over the world come to Taipei, Taiwan in order to view first-hand the products and technologies they will be seeing over the following year and beyond. Cameron Wilmot and myself made the trip to Taipei from Australia for the duration of Computex and we will of course be bringing you daily coverage as the event unfolds with all the latest announcements and maybe even some Intel vs VIA entertainment (those who have read about last year's Computex will know what i'm talking about).
After catching a seven and a half hour flight from Sydney, I met up with Cameron who had just gotten off a plane himself, however, he came in from Melbourne. Following the traditional aussie handshake and welcome greetings, we set off to find something to keep ourselves occupied until our connecting flight to Taipei was ready to go. Singapore airport is a fasinating place - One of the largest and most technological airports in the world with 42" plasma screens, wireless Internet access at the E-Hub and even a game show called "What's Your Range?". After spending a few hours surfing the net and chatting on MSN, it was time to head off to Taipei.
To cut a long story short, we arrived safely in Taipei just under five hours later and we are now happy to present you with Day 1 coverage direct from the show floor.

Bacon. It is delicious and fragrant. It is versatile and useful. Bacon can go in, on, or around almost anything. But, sadly, the bacon we purchase from the local grocery store is full of water, it's soggy and wet, and full of other things best not discussed. Then there is the super special prime bacon, lovingly hand sliced by your local butcher, it only costs an arm and a leg. Well. Not any more. Make your own bacon with this recipe!
Also, notice all the recipes that have been posted before, almost every one that contains bacon, uses the bacon from this recipe.
Yes you can buy almost anything, but what is more satisfying than making your own? I have such a sense of pride when I create something that I would have typically purchased from a market. A glowing "wow I did that," feeling.
What have you made that gives you that feeling?

It really is rare to find skillful individuals within this issue, but you be understood as you no doubt know what you are sharing! Thanks a lot
Yeah… if you like pork and bacon as much as I do you will absolutely LOVE this recipe.
Our first attempt didn't have so much of a fatty/bacon like flavour. We think this was because the meat hadn't had enough time to marinate and the plank hadn't soaked long enough. But it was still delicious!
Our second attempt had much more time to soak and absorb and… just, wow. The JUICE that came off this thing was mouth-watering enough. I wanted to drink it. Not kidding, but my friend was all worried about my arteries.
We were blown away by how tasty this was. This is not just bacon, it's main-course meat.
Your arilcte perfectly shows what I needed to know, thanks!

"Not so fast, Tesla," says @chrysler comm chief, re claims it's first to repay U.S. govt. @teslamotorsbit.ly/14zB6sJ #shortciruit — Chrysler (@Chrysler) May 23, 2013
"Not so fast, Tesla," says @chrysler comm chief, re claims it's first to repay U.S. govt. @teslamotorsbit.ly/14zB6sJ #shortciruit
Tesla became the first company to completely repay the US government under the Obama administration's Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing program, providing a much-needed green-loan victory for the federal government after the debacles of its lending to Solyndra, A123 Systems, Fisker and others.
But Tesla apparently went a bit too far in its news release by stating that it would become "the only American car company to have fully repaid the government." Tesla may have tried to exploit a matter of mere semantics, but Chrysler disputed Tesla's claim—and by the end of Thursday, Tesla was slapping back.Continue reading...

brand strategy
Posted by Mark J. Miller on May 23, 2013 06:25 PM
In the weeks after the attacks on September 11, then President George W. Bush, who brilliantly took a megaphone into his hand at Ground Zero and pledged to get whoever had done this to America, had an approval rating of 90 percent, according to Gallup. The numbers went down, of course, and he ended up with an average of 37 percent in his full second term.
So Walmart, which is on the hot seat these days for its strategy for improving working conditions at factories in Bangladesh as well as its not-so-great financial results, is hoping one of Bush's main aides, Dan Bartlett, can help them with their own approval ratings. The 41-year-old and his wife along with their four young sons will be moving to Arkansas as he is taking on the role of executive vice president of corporate affairs, according to The New York Times.Continue reading...

It's been a big week in the twitter-verse as the micro-blogger, now transmitting close to 400 million messages a day, has made three decisive moves forward.
First, Twitter announced the implementation of a two-factor authentication technology to boost security for its users after recent hacker attacks on the Financial Times, The Onion and the Associated Press accounts. The lack of added security reached a crescendo of criticism in April when a fake tweet about a non-existent White House explosion, sent from the AP account, caused havoc in US financial markets.
The two-factor authentication feature, which is voluntary for users, sends a second, one-time log-in code via text message, making it harder for hackers to break-in to an account with just a main password. Both Jeep and Burger King have been victims as well. Criticized for not putting such measures into place earlier, a Twitter rep said the rollout was delayed due to required updates to its SMS architecture. Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Apple offer it already.Continue reading...

The picture for Ford and other automakers in the US market continues to look pretty good, but Europe remains a very challenging market. So Ford is launching a major new European advertising campaign this weekend tied to the "Super Bowl" of the continent's favorite sport, soccer.
Ford of Europe is leveraging the hugely popular 2013 UEFA Champions League Final football match on Saturday to begin a new effort—one of the biggest so far under its worldwide "Go Further" positioning unveiled last year—that emphasizes technologies available across all or much of Ford's product lineup rather than focusing, as usual, on individual nameplates.
A TV audience of 150 million people across Europe is expected for the finals at London's Wembley stadium, where perimeter boards at the game also will direct viewers to a new website that includes entertaining videos and information about the featured technologies.Continue reading...

Posted by Mark J. Miller on May 23, 2013 03:04 PM
It's been seven years since Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries told Salon.com that his company is only interested in outfitting the cool, hip, skinny, "all-American kid(s) with a great attitude and a lot of friends." He's been paying the price for his exclusionary comments, though, for the past few weeks since Business Insider republished the quotes in a story about how A&F didn't carry any women's XL or XXL sizes.
The A&F brand has been taking a beating since. YouGov's BrandIndex charted 18- to 34-year-old's thoughts on the brand versus fellow retailers H&M and American Eagle. The latter two went up slightly while A&F's numbers plummeted. Jeffries, no doubt, is regretting his comments from way back when (or at least is annoyed that BI brought them to the world's attention again). On May 15, Jeffries posted a note to the company's Facebook page that went for the old "quote has been taken out of context" argument and claims that the company is "strongly committed to diversity and inclusion."
That may be so, but Jeffries may have missteppeed again Wednesday when a group of teen activists showed up at the doorstep of the Columbus, Ohio, headquarters of his company. They were taken in, People magazine reports, and had a meeting with company execs but Jeffries didn't bother to stick his head into the proceedings even though this has been a PR disaster for his company.Continue reading...

Almost one month to the day after the Rana Plaza garment factory collapsed in Bangladesh killing 1,127 people, American retailers and their international counterparts remain at odds over the plan to improve labor conditions, with legal liability still at the top of US concerns.
Gap, one of the largest American retailers implicated in industry accidents in Bangladesh has said in recent weeks that it was close to signing the proposed agreement, if only clauses regarding arbitration were removed. "In the United States, there's maybe a bigger legal risk than there is in Europe," said Gap CEO Glenn Murphy, according to The New York Times. "If we were to sign onto something that had unlimited legal liability and risk, I think our shareholders should care about that." Calling the language of the agreement "vague and unclear," Gap, along with Walmart, Target, JCPenney, Sears and other major US retailers have bilked at signing the accord, despite the fact that over 30 global brands had signed on by the proposed May 15 deadline.Continue reading...

It didn't work for JCPenney. But will a new strategy on pricing work for PepsiCo?
PepsiCo is adjusting its pricing strategy for its beverage brands in some sections of the United States in an effort to wean consumers off the habit of buying soda only when it's on sale, Reuters reports. Pepsi's "Hybrid Everyday Value" strategy involves narrowing the gap between soda prices on holidays and regular days by cutting discounts on holidays. With Memorial Day approaching, there's no better time for PepsiCo teo see if this new approach migh work.
Under the new plan, the price for a 12-pack of 12-ounce cans of Pepsi would settle somewhere between $2.50, which is how low it can get now with holiday discounting, and $5.99, which is about as high as the current "everyday" price gets.Continue reading...

Army Corporal and Wounded Warrior Receives Home from Chase
Army Cpl. Jonathan Albrecht has seen a lot of hard times in his deployments to different war zones. He was all smiles recently as he received a mortgage-free home from
and Operation Homefront as part of our
Homes on the Homefront
Read the rest of his inspiring story:
Albrecht could be considered the toughest of the tough. As an Airborne Ranger, he served twice in Afghanistan and once in Iraq.
During those tours, he's been stabbed in hand-to-hand combat, suffered gunshot wounds and been riddled with shrapnel. With each injury, the self-professed, stubborn soldier was patched up and sent back to the field with his men.
But when a 1,200-pound roadside bomb struck his vehicle, Albrecht suffered the injuries that would end his military career.
On Sept. 11, 2009, Albrecht's unit rolled into a complex ambush. The bomb under his vehicle was just one of the blows the unit suffered. The enemy launched mortars and rocket propelled grenades. Six men died instantly. Albrecht was knocked unconscious and woke up in a hospital bed in Germany.
He had suffered eye damage as well as injuries to his back. Most days he cannot feel his legs and hands. He must wear sunglasses every day, all day, because light in his eyes causes extreme pain.
His wife Stephanie and their son came to visit him when they could. She lived nearby but her work schedule and his therapy schedule made it difficult for the family to spend time together.
Operation Homefront gave the family the means to be together again when they were able to move into one of the apartments at one of our wounded warrior Villages.
"I liked it a lot," Albrecht said. "And the fact that they've included the family in everything is great."
Since moving into the village, the family has welcomed a baby girl, and are now expecting another addition later this year. Doctors told Albrecht his injuries would prevent him from having any more children. Once again, this stubborn soldier has proved them wrong.
Albrecht said he would prefer to return to duty but Army doctors have nixed that plan. He said living at the Operation Village has relieved some of the stress he felt living at the hospital and given him time to plan his future, like moving into their new home.
"Now I'm able to think about the next step and able to see what needs to be done to take care of my family," he said. "I can't wait to move into the new home. It is a true blessing and we can't thank Operation Homefront and Chase enough for everything they have done. This new home will be a great place for my family to settle and grow as we look forward to what the future brings."

One month so far
It's one month already I relocated to California. It wasn't a shock since I've been here many times in 2006. But this time was for good so I had to face many new things I had no idea, things like getting a Social Security Number, opening a bank account, writing checks in english (for the rent). I also don't have a car yet so I had to figure out how to reach some places by public transportation.
I have also been to Ikea for the first time. The closer one is located in East Palo Alto which is supposed to NOT be a good neighborhood so it was nice when I jumped off too early from the bus and the Bus driver stopped by to tell me to jump in that it was the wrong stop. I met very cordial people until now. So, the Ikea stop is important in this story because there I bought a desk (as you can see, nothing fancy) and confortable chair to be able to work at home on Oxygen. It was not easy to build the desk without screwdriver and I messed things up just at step 3 :) but in the end it worked!
Since I left my lovely 23″ Cinema Display in Italy I'm really thinkinh in getting an 24″ or something iMac. In October I really haven't any time or energy to work on anything KDE related. Fortunately Nuno and David Miller have been doing a great work filling missing actions icons and improving the ugly ones. There's still some work to do but I'll concentrate on designing the applications now. Next coming are for sure Kmail and Kontact. There also some minor changes I'd like to do here and there on the folders, Konqueror icon, Dolphin and to the "new" action badge.
So stay tuned.*PS:* Yes, I read all the crap about the amazingly stupid Linux.com article. Will write something about that soon, but I had this post ready since a couple of days.

Redmond [1] makes its mark on the culinary world more by the quality of the local Juniper Grove goat cheese and its locally raised Kobe beef than by its restaurants, but there are a few good places to eat.
Madaline's Grill (2414 S. U.S. 97, 541/548-9964, 6 a.m.–11 p.m. Mon.–Fri., 7 a.m.–11 p.m. Sat.–Sun., $7–23) is a bright spot, with a strong Mexican theme that doesn't exclude a good selection of crepes, grilled fish dishes, and steaks. The wide-ranging menu makes a nod toward healthy eating, with lean meats and healthier burritos featured.
Madaline's sister restaurant, Diego's Spirited Kitchen (447 SW 6th St., 541/316-2002, 11:30 a.m.–9 p.m. daily, $13–25) is more upscale, emphasizing Southwestern cuisine with French and Italian influences. Pork osso bucco slow-roasted with mushrooms is served over mashed potatoes with truffle oil.
A couple of local train stations have been transformed into restaurants. Near the Redmond [1] airport, the Red Dog Depot (3716 SW 21st Place, 541/923-6400, 11 a.m.–10 p.m. daily, $7–13) is a family- and dog-friendly brewpub run by Cascade Lakes Brewery, with a good menu of pub food and a wall of framed 8-by-10 photos of customers' dogs (come prepared to show off your own pup). Cascade Lakes's other pub, the Seventh Street Brew House (855 SW 7th St., 541/923-1795, 11:30 a.m.–11 p.m. Mon.–Thurs., 11:30 a.m.–midnight Fri.–Sat., noon–9 p.m. Sun., $7–10), is just a block off busy 6th Street and serves pizza and pub food.
On the road to Smith Rock [2], the Terrebone Depot (400 NW Smith Rock Way, Terrebonne, 541/548-5030, 11:30 a.m.–8:30 p.m. Sun.–Mon. and Wed.–Thurs., 11:30 a.m.–9 p.m. Fri.–Sat., $8–22), located on the road to Smith Rock, offers fresh food, including a good selection of vegetarian options and pizza, in the gorgeously renovated historic Terrebonne train depot.

Can Obama overcome negative economic opinions?
Doom and gloom are weighing on the minds of many Americans just months before the presidential election.
According to the Economist, "Four recent surveys have found that on average only 28 percent of Americans are satisfied with the condition of the country, while 70 percent are dissatisfied. Three recent surveys have found that between 69 percent and 83 percent of Americans believe that the country is still in recession (it isn't), and only half believe that a recovery is under way"
Part of this feeling can be attributed to the negative political ads that flooded the airwaves during the primary elections earlier this year. President Obama just unveiled an ad attacking presumptive GOP nominee, Mitt Romney, as an "economic vampire" thereby ensuring that the negative advertising will continue without respite all the way until Nov. 6.
Political campaigns in this country, in general, and negative advertising, in particular, tend to breed negativity among the populace. When deluged by constant negativity, it is only natural for people to feel disgusted with the state of affairs.
Then there are the public's perceptions of economic reality.
Despite the National Bureau of Economic Research's assertion that the recession officially ended in June 2009, a Washington Post-ABC News poll conducted last month found that no fewer than 75 percent of Americans believe that it still continues.
The highly respected Conference Board, an objective source of economic information, releases a monthly Leading Economic Index. This index consists of such indicators as jobless claims, manufacturers' new orders for consumers goods and materials, new building permits, level of the S&P 500, consumer expectations and four other factors determining economic growth. In April, for the sixth straight month, the LEI showed an increase.
Further, Bloomberg Businessweek announced on April 19, that consumer confidence was the highest level it had been in four years, largely due to Americans feeling that their finances were improving.
The feeling remains, nonetheless, that the economic data do not accurately reflect the true state of the U.S. economy or, at least, the economy that ordinary Americans experience. This might be an example of a negativity bias that has become ingrained in the American mindset since 2008. But one must acknowledge that Americans' depression regarding the economy does have a basis in reality.
For example, Americans' median income has not grown fast enough to keep pace with inflation. This is probably the result of new job growth being concentrated in retail and temporary employment, which are filled with low-paying jobs.
However, the plain fact is that, on a number of objective points, the economy is improving. It's just that 1) it is still performing below expectations and 2) Americans view of things tend to emphasize the negative and play down the positives.
According to many pundits and politicians, by this time in the 2012 presidential campaign, we would be enjoying strong, sustained economic growth. This belief, however, was grounded in our experience of such recent downturns as the Dot Com Bubble of 2000-01. This time was different.
In the earlier downturn, the high technology stocks that fueled the bubble and subsequent stock market collapse, were nowhere near as significant a part of the U.S. and global economies as are the housing and financial industries at the heart of the most recent recession.
Given the sheer volume of losses produced by the collapse of both industries ($4 trillion according to one estimate), it should come as no surprise that the recovery would be long and painful.
The second factor that appears to be dampening the collective spirits of Americans is a pervasive negative viewpoint regarding the economy. Psychologists refer to this as a negativity bias. In other words, this is a learned tendency to project more negatives onto a situation than is warranted by reality. So, despite the growing number of positive signs, many Americans glom onto a few negative ones to justify and confirm their sense of dissatisfaction with the way things are going.
This might be the biggest obstacle to Obama's re-election, his ability to convince enough Americans that, although things might not be where many people thought they would be by now; nevertheless, we are moving in the right direction.

Only Two North Brooklyn Restaurants On Eater's Essential New York Restaurants List
Only Roberta's and Diner made the cut. Seems crazy to ignore Gwynnett St. on Graham Avenue. Plus, we love Diner, but is it really essential? Eater thinks so:
The specials are the dishes to order at Diner (and yes, the servers still write them down on the table). Right now, chef de cuisine Ken Wiss is turning out inventive plates of Italian-influenced American fare, but you can always get the excellent burger and a serious steak, too. In terms of atmosphere, food, and value, Diner is one of North Brooklyn's best restaurants.
What do you think they missed?

"The Government have clearly sent the message to Shell, 'you can do whatever you want'. Fortunately due to protest, the refinery remains unconnected to the gas field. If, as Shell planned, gas had been flowing by now, we would potentially all be dealing with a gas leak and explosion."
Providence Resources has been awarded a standard exploration licence in the Kish Bank Basin, off the coast of Dublin.
Exploration company Providence Resources has been awarded a standard exploration licence in the Kish Bank Basin, off the coast of Dublin, by the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources.
The licence has been granted for a period of up to six years, and is split into two three year phases.
The licence contains the Dalkey Island exploration prospect and the partners in the project have committed to the drilling of at least one well during its first phase.
Providence holds a 50% interest in the licence and operates on behalf of its partner Star Energy.
Previous exploration drilling in the Kish Bank Basin has confirmed the potential for petroleum generation with oil shows seen in a number of wells along with natural hydrocarbon seeps recorded from air surveys.

Ways for cancer patients and caregivers to cope with cancer, side effects, nutrition, general cancer support issues, grief/end of life issues, and shared survivor's experiences.
Frequently Asked Questions / Types of Cancer / Pediatric Cancers / Liver Cancer
Anna Meadows, MD
Last Modified: November 1, 2001
Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
My son was diagnosed with stage 4 hepatoblastoma. I would like to know more information about hepatoblastoma, chances of survival after a series of chemotherapy, also the chances of recurrence.
Thank you.
Anna Meadows, MD, pediatric oncologist at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Director of the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania's Survivorship Research Program, responds:
This is a difficult situation that requires individualized treatment and close monitoring by your treating oncologist. If there is a response to chemotherapy, such that the primary (liver) tumor can be completely removed, and the metastases go away, then there is a chance for a long remission and even cure. However, if the chemotherapy (or radiation) does not make it possible to remove all the cancer in the liver, then the disease will unfortunately prove fatal.
Your oncologist will be able to tell you more, based on your son's particular case.

"Tubes" by Andrew Blum is the first and only book to expose what's really going on behind the scenes at the Internet, and will appeal to fans of "The Social Network" and Michael Lewis' "The Big Short". You write an email. You hit send. It appears ten thousand miles away. How did that happen? In April 2011, a seventy-five year old woman deprived Armenia of its internet access when she sliced through a buried cable with her garden spade. That January, Egyptian authorities simply switched off 70 per cent of the country's internet connections in an attempt to quell a revolution. In 2009, a squirrel chewed through a wire in Andrew Blum's backyard, slowing his broadband to a trickle and catapulting him on a quest to find out what this so-called 'internet' actually is. This is the Internet as you've never seen it before. It's not a concept. It's not a culture. It's most certainly not a cloud. It's a bunch of tubes. But what tubes...Hundreds of thousands of miles of fibre-optic cable, criss-crossing the globe, pulsing with trillions of photons of light, linking us via anonymous exchanges in secretive locations with vast data-warehouses where our online selves are stored in banks of spinning hard-drives.In "Tubes", Andrew Blum takes us behind the scenes of this hidden world and introduces us to the remarkable clan of insiders and eccentrics who design and run it everyday. He explains where it is, how it got there, what it looks like, how it works - and what happens when it breaks. "Every web site, every email, every instant message travels through real junctions in a real network of real cables. It's all too awesome to behold. Andrew Blum's fascinating book demystifies the earthly geography of this most ethereal terra incognita". (Joshua Foer, author of "Moonwalking with Einstein"). "Compelling and profound. You will never open an e-mail in quite the same way again". (Tom Vanderbilt, author of the "New York Times" bestseller "Traffic"). Andrew Blum is a correspondent at "Wired" magazine whose work has appeared in numerous publications, including the "New Yorker", "The New York Times", "Business Week" and "Slate". Blum was a lead media commentator during the internet blackout of the Egyptian revolution, and his latest article on gizmodo.com got 100,000 hits in its first day.

It's not much of a surprise since he took the first-team snaps at quarterback all week, but Drew Stanton will get the start for the Detroit Lions Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Shaun Hill, who was getting third-team reps in practice during the week, will be the No. 2 quarterback. Zac Robinson gets the No. 3 slot.
Also as expected, with Landon Johnson out with a neck injury, Bobby Carpenter will get the start at outside linebacker.
Here are the other inactives for the Lions in Week 15:
QB Matthew Stafford
RB Aaron Brown
OG Donald Thomas
OT Tony Ugoh
LB Vinny Ciurciu

I write this column having just returned from a workshop in which the topic of discussion was the labour law amendments that are in the parliamentary pipeline and are likely to be promulgated before the end of the year.
In respect of labour brokers, they do not meet the demands articulated so aggressively by Cosatu over time, but overall, they are not good news for employers either.
To be more accurate, they are bad news for business and the economy. Labour, in its quest for a regimen that favours union members and workers, has struck out, successfully for the most part, to increase the heights of the hurdles that make up the employment steeplechase.
This is a rigorous test of stamina at the present time, but promises to be that much more challenging in the future. The laws will not reach the exacting levels of some of the labour demands that characterise Europe and some other developed countries, but SA is nowhere near economically mature enough to take the strain of these.
I am thinking of paid paternity leave, stretching to three years in Austria, and the fact that Spanish unions are up in arms because the government, as one of its austerity measures, is proposing a cut in severance pay for those retrenched to 33 days per year from 45.
We are a developing country, aspiring to be a development state, a circumstance that requires a flourishing economy, many more jobs, far better education and reliable health services. What is the point, therefore, of making employment difficult? So difficult, in fact, that we cannot rely on people to improve productivity.
Last year, in their quest for "decent" jobs, the unions subjected SA's economy to a loss of almost 30 million working days. This represented a 50 percent increase from 2010, while in 2009, the number was only one million.
The fact that this increase, and the extra-inflationary wages that resulted after the strikes, should have accompanied the effects of the global recession makes the situation that much more serious.
The concerns of the business community cannot be dismissed as characteristic antagonism to labour. They are reasoned responses to foreseen consequences that have become increasingly apparent in recent times. Business holds the view that the amendments are mostly unnecessary.
Proper enforcement of the existing legislation and efficient management of its requirements would successfully eliminate many of the workers' concerns.
Instead, we are to be subjected to new demands which will impose an even greater burden on the Department of Labour.
If it has lacked the capacity hitherto, one wonders how it can be thought that extra bureaucratic and control provisions will bring about improvement.
When the Durban Chamber of Commerce hosted the World Chambers Congress several years ago, many visitors expressed surprise at the fact that, whereas in their countries the norm reflected a relationship between government and business, SA's government has an alliance with labour.
In recent times, Cosatu has been active in moving government as far to the left as possible. The manifestation of its success is reflected, not just in words, or even in enforcement, but in demonstrations, strikes and protests, and, significantly, amended laws which favour the unions.
In our business circles there is frequent discussion about how business should seek more influence over government decisions.
Well, considering that the ruling party has an alliance with the SACP and Cosatu – not just a relationship, but an alliance – there is slim chance of making headway.
In the wake of these legislative changes, business will adapt. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth, but the innovation of the private sector will prevail.
The plethora of economic opportunities in the country and continent will stimulate, and momentum will be gained in the cycle of growth that lies ahead.
But the objectives of the development state may be missed and job creation inhibited by the need of business to find another way of competing.
It is such a pity, because if we could find the way of acting in concert to achieve growth, it would be greater and more people would benefit, including the millions who are unlikely to find employment where this is impeded by stringent regulation.

So, you've got great legs, a fun personality, and accolades of all kinds.
You're just missing the secret ingredient: estrogen.
Waste no more time–start slathering it on!
Studies have shown that men will be far, far more attracted to women who have sufficient levels of estrogen in their system than those who don't.
If you're over a certain age (or not, even younger women can have their levels out ofwhack), and you have a date this weekend, hop over to the nearest Whole Foods and start slathering yourself with yam cream and rub the bottoms of your feet every day with essential oil of Clary Sage (clinical trials have show its ability to raise estrogen levels in humans).
OR—Better Yet–Go to your doctor and have your hormone levels tested. You may find your various beautiful hormones are below normal levels–and you need some to speak of!– even if you're not 30 and fertile!
It can change your life to get your hormones up to a sufficient level. Especially your love life!
