There was an improvement survey taken more than a while ago. A gut feeling (mine) was the response was overwhelming in a good/bad way. A few changes were made immediately afterwards and then it was crickets chirping until the recent sale.
I'm not saying I know anything but my life experience suggests that the 'improvement list' has been revisited as a part of the sale/closing of sale at least once.

This study from the Netherlands looked at the validity and reliability over time of the Symbol Digit Modality Test (SDMT) and the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT), as an indicator of the cognitive state of people with MS. The researchers compared the long term results from these tests in relation to scores of the Brief Repeatable Battery of Neuropsychological tests (BRBN) in 485 people with MS. They then calculated the construct validity of the SDMT and PASAT three seconds test by comparing correlations with the BRBN-sumscore. They found higher correlations between the SDMT and BRBN compared to PASAT3 and BRBN in particular at the baseline. In the test-retest reliability, the highest coefficients were seen for the SDMT. A more distinct learning effect was seen for the PASAT3. Based on these results, the SDMT has better psychometric qualities than the PASAT3 as a single cognitive tool in people with MS.

Visiting a counsellor, or receiving any other form of psychological help, is nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, I think it's something that most of us could do with, even if we don't think that we do.
I'm not saying that everyone should go and be psychoanalysed, but everyone needs someone that they can talk to, and many of us don't always feel like we can talk to those around us. For those of us that don't, having a professional to listen to us when we're at our lowest can be both helpful and insightful. Since visiting a counsellor myself, I've not only learnt a lot about myself, but I've learnt a lot about those around me and the impact that they have. Not only that, but those that know me the best have also noticed that I find it easier to cope with what life throws at me (which is, sadly, a lot), and I'm less likely to run away from dealing with things.
Many things that we do, often without realising, are psychological impulses and our way of dealing with things. Washing our hands constantly. Refusing to wear clothing with sleeves or turtle necks. Turning to alcohol or drugs when faced with something we don't like. Shutting out the things that we love in order to avoid the things that we hate, too. Binge eating. Not eating. Being unable to eat.
There's a never ending list of reasons why someone may need to speak to a counsellor, but the reason I think that it's such a good idea is because it not only offers a fresh, objective perspective – which most of us aren't guaranteed to get from a friend or a relative, nor are we guaranteed total secrecy – but sometimes it's easier to speak to a stranger, too.
Despite how beneficial speaking to a professional can be, the government has cut funding for this, meaning that, in a time where mental illness is on the rise because of the environment that we're in, it's becoming increasingly difficult to seek the help that we need. It was nearly six months before I was seen, and I'm only classed as having mild depression. One of my friends, who needed to see a "high-intensity" counsellor, and who has attempted suicide in the past, had to wait a couple of months, which doesn't sound like a lot, but for someone with depression, mere seconds can be the difference between life and death, let alone two freakin' months.
We therefore need to find ways to be there for our friends – and have our friends – be there for us as much as possible and to find healthy ways to channel our emotions. If you do think that you might need to speak to a professional, however, please, please contact them as soon as possible, because the sooner you contact them, the sooner they can help you.

Wells Fargo profits a boost for banks
The bank is one of the better-managed, but a rise in mortgage refinancing may be helping the industry as a whole.
A surge in mortgage refinancing activity is generating fees for US banks just when they need it most.
Skip to next paragraphThat message emerged Thursday as Wells Fargo announced a better-than-expected performance for the year's first quarter, fueling a broader rally in the stock market.
Wells said it expects to report about $3 billion in profit for the quarter that ended in March. The bank cited "exceptionally strong mortgage banking results" as a key factor.
The bank earned good fees as low interest rates drove 450,000 customers to buy new homes or, more often, to refinance existing loans to lower their monthly payments.
This isn't an all-clear signal for the troubled banking industry, which still faces rising loan defaults in the current recession. But it's a welcome bit of good news.
In morning trading, the Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped by triple digits to above the 8000 level. In early trading, Wells Fargo's share price surged 25 percent, and had a ripple effect on the nation's other megabanks: Share prices gained 20 percent at Bank of America, 12 percent at JPMorgan Chase, and 9 percent at Citigroup.
Low interest rates and the resulting rise in mortgage activity promises to help the whole industry.
"It's going to help them pick up some fees," says Brian Bethune, an economist who tracks the financial sector at IHS Global Insight in Lexington, Mass. "There are definitely signs that credit is starting to flow in that market."
Mortgage rates have fallen below 5 percent on 30-year fixed-rate loans, causing a rush by people who are able to refinance from higher-rate loans.
Federal policies to help banks and the economy may be helping in several ways.
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, despite facing their own loan losses, are using federal support to continue to guarantee mortgage loans that conform to their standards. That means banks "can certainly have a choice as to how much risk they keep on their books," and how much they off-load via Fannie or Freddie, Mr. Bethune says.

Hannaford parking lot encounter involved a shotgun
But Driggers' 20-month-old daughter, Sydney, was in her car seat behind him and his disabled mom was sitting beside him when Richard Sinotte, 53, allegedly threatened him outside Hannaford's supermarket about 10:30 a.m. Tuesday.
He said his mother, Marcia Fowler, 62, politely asked the driver, "Please wait a moment."
"I said I'm sorry but we're going to be here 30 seconds. Please exercise an ounce of patience," added Driggers, a radio disk jockey who works weekends at 106.3 Frank FM-WFNQ in Nashua.
"If you hit this vehicle with my infant daughter in it, it's not going to go well for you," Driggers said he warned Sinotte.
"He very clearly showed it to me and said something to the effect, 'How well do you think it will go for you?," Driggers recounted. Driggers said the man never pointed the shotgun at him and put the weapon back down.
Police said they arrived to find Sinotte standing outside his truck and a 12-gauge Remington shotgun lying on the front passenger seat inside. It was not loaded. Police seized the weapon and 10 shells.
"I'm so heartbroken," an emotional Sinotte said when reached for comment at his 137 Vinton St. home. Sinotte said he spent the morning deer hunting and stopped at the store to return some items when he encountered Driggers.

Q. My manager wants me to work with a guy who never follows through on what I ask him to do. Then my manager blames me for not getting my work done. I have tried to tell my coworker that he needs to cooperate with me or I'll get in trouble, but he doesn't care. How do I get my coworker to shape up?
A. Start by realizing you have no supervisory authority over your coworker. One of the most painful mistakes I see my clients make is to try to supervise people when they have no formal power.
You should realize that your manager is expecting you to have power that you simply don't have. And you should stop pretending that you have it. I find that admitting powerlessness is especially difficult for my male clients, since we raise men to rarely acknowledge vulnerability. Nevertheless, vulnerability is exactly the solution to your thorny problem.
If you continue to act like you can actually control a coworker (who is your peer), you'll anger your coworker and still get nothing done. If you admit your lack of power to your boss and your coworker, you will finally get the help you deserve.
Start by letting your boss know you need some coaching. Tell your boss that you recognize you have no formal authority over your coworker, and you can only ask for the help your boss wants you to get. Ask your boss if he wants to assign you to be a lead (to give you formal authority). If he says no, then ask him what he thinks would work to gain the cooperation of your peer.
Sometimes managers will ask employees to supervise a peer because they want to avoid conflict with your peer or another manager. If your boss is expecting you to have magical authority to avoid conflict, your admission of powerlessness will force him to deal with the problem he has been avoiding.
You also want to have a conversation with your peer. Tell your peer that your boss has asked you to ask him to help you with several projects. If your peer refuses this time, be gracious, and ask your coworker what he would like you to tell your boss. Make it clear that you are just the messenger. If he refuses, shrug and take his message back to your boss.
The bottom line is that, unless your boss plans to grant you some formal authority, attempting to supervise or control anyone who is not your subordinate is a fool's errand. If you let your need to look or feel powerful overcome your common sense, you'll simply fail and be blamed by both your coworker and your boss.
If you can admit it when you genuinely don't have formal authority, you'll get the right people involved who do have the power to get you the help you need.
The last word(s)
Q. I'm getting to the point where I don't care much about my job. Will my boss know?
A. Yes, if you act and talk like you don't care. Otherwise, your job is safe unless your boss is telepathic.

After the demise of Samhain, Danzig formed his own eponymous band with Samhain ... more

A well-balanced breakfast will give you enough energy to pleasantly chat with family and friends—no need to be agitated and hungry when you see everyone.

GG or Glycergrow, is banned by some athletic organizations because of it being classed as a diuretic, i think it satays in the system for about 20 hours from what i remember, but i think somone else would be better informed.

I need to know how long the GMS contained in GG will stay in ones system. I have a NCAA consulting me regarding this question. Just an approximate time-frame will be sufficent.
Not too sure, actually! But it's in many foods, so I wouldn't worry about testing. Also, the NCAA no longer has it on their banned substance list.
GMS is about 20 hours, i called my brother and thats what he said too.

Beantown Confidential: 'The Town' Illuminates a Shady Den of Thieves
Doug MacRay could have been a contender. He robs banks and armored trucks for a living, moonlighting as a blue-collar construction type. Once upon a time he had a chance to escape the mean streets of Boston's clannish Charlestown neighborhood, and with them the legacy of his father, a career criminal wasting away in Walpole's Cedar Junction prison.
Doug (Ben Affleck) was a hockey player with a scorer's touch, but instead of going pro he fell into the family business, emptying vaults for the neighborhood crime boss (Pete Postlethwaite) and setting aside just enough cash to harbor dreams of a better life. He has a tight-knit crew and a guiding sense of principle, though the two are often at odds.
SF Sketchfest: Refried Sit-Coms Make Tasty Theater
San Francisco Sketchfest, the annual Bay Area comedy festival, doesn't limit itself to showcasing local-grown talent. Nationally-known comedians, -- especially a brigade of Late Great comics (not dead, just no longer eligible for prime time) are here to answer the burning question, where are they now? In past years, celebrated but sorta superannuated icons such as Paul Ruebens, Gene Wilder and Jonathan (AKA Dr.) Katz have all been showcased at the festival.

Dr. Atcha: Yes, you are a candidate for dental implants. I am glad your condidion is better now. If you have good bone and are in excellent health otherwise there are no reasons for you not to go with a dental implant treatment. However when choosing an implant dentist, please be sure to find out their level of training and how much experience they have with dental implants. Always consult with your physician when seeking extensive dental care and get a medical clearance.

Kitsilano Suites - Great Stay ! Coming back from Pacific Shores Resort in Parksville on Vancouver Island we stayed over for five wonderful nights at Mark's place in Kitsilano before retuning to our home in Olympia, WA. We are accustomed to upscale places and have become spoiled with the extra pampering that they frequently provide. However, we were unprepared for the gentle touch of hospitality and fine feel for artistic balance in interior design that Mark has accomplished in the Kitsilano Suites. Every detail, from the knives in the kitchen and the other appliances - both large and small, the granite counter tops and excellent custom built cabinetry in the kitchen, to the 1920's tile floor and the Ferrari-like exhaust fan in the bathroom, to the cove molding with matching ceiling beams in the bedroom along with exceptionally fine linen and a very comfortable bed, to the wall hangings, sofa and easy chairs in the living room, and beautiful stain glass window inserts throughout the apartment, to the well designed and well kept landscaped yard front and back. These are but a few of the many many exceptionally well designed and executed features we enjoyed. At every turn of the kaleidoscope, Mark was there to unobtrusively assist with whatever was needed (WI-FI connectivity and HTMI from computer to TV monitor for photo viewing, and some instruction for the low energy washer were about the only things we needed) - his housekeeper, Carly, stopped cleaning when we arrived and helped us carry our bags up from the car into the suite - this was a very incredible level of excellence for some very hip and well seasoned world travelers. It is pure joy to travel when our accommodations are so very comfortable, clean and welcoming. All the very best, Stanley & PatrisaDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

RIP, Charlie Harper?
by Matt Richenthal at .So much for Charlie Harper's happy ending.
While sources previously said Chuck Lorre and company would resolve its Charlie Sheen problem by simply having that character remain in Paris with Rose, a new report says plans have changed.
Harper is now headed for the giant punchline in the sky.
No premiere script has been finalized yet, so ideas are subject to change, but CBS insiders tell TMZ the current storyline involves Ashton Kutcher's character purchasing Charlie's house after he's reported dead. Alan and Jake will learn of Charlie's fate early in the first episode back.
Are you in favor of this proposed outcome?

I agree I think the cast is perfect and charlie sheen is the topper without him in it I will lose interest in the show as good as the other actors are charlie sheens character fits in perfecly. As for Chuck Lorre how has he made it this far with mistakes like that.....needs to sort out what went wrong and keep the show going cause its a gold mine
I think the show will developed a whole new life! Jake is due to head up some story lines, Allan is the REAL STAR anyway! His character has the best lines & best silent comedy (facial & physical). Maybe they dont kill Charlie off, maybe they do. If necessary, he can always come back somehow....It is Hollywood! The show is actually capable of pulling off a brand new spin-off, (if u will). With 9 future seasons of it's own. I think its GREAT that the producers didn't let the show die, when Charlie Sheen's sanity did.
anyone who is dumb and cant see that mr.sheens real life stuff is a 'andy kaufman' like act of acting like how the media thinks he is and messing with people that sit around glued to TMZ and the insider is a loser! Who the hell are you to say what is and ok for someone to do.. If they kill him off thats there deal... This is all a joke... Now go read your teen people and shut the heck up you sad lonely little trolls!!
nah, i like the show, but a dead Charlie could be interesting, maybe not in the show, but in the real life... a death tells us that they can´t handle the show without him, and just leaving him in paris shows that Sheen isn´t as big as he think for the series...
Tiger-blooded winner!!!!
it's not going to be the same I like Ashton he was great as Kelso but I think it's to many season in to replace a character that big now it worked when Sasha wanted to leave NCIS at the end of season two but this isn't the case it's going to season 9 I don't think Aston and the rest of the great cast can pull it off. but I could be wrong I will wait and see

Offer whatever you have to God's service. Be willing to open your home and use whatever other resources you have to serve God as He calls you. Know that God can use even something as small and simple as a meal you offer someone to accomplish important purposes.
Focus on your eternal destiny. Understand that, no matter what you achieve on earth, you're still going to die. Make sure you've chosen a saving relationship with Jesus Christ so you be with Him in heaven. Live with your eternal destination in mind, living to please God above everyone else.
Don't just talk the talk; walk the walk. Realize that words without action are cheap. Be willing to put your faith into action whenever you can, loving others as God has called you to do.
Let God prune you. Be willing to let God prune the unhealthy branches of sin out of your life so you can grow and thrive. Welcome His discipline into all aspects of your life.
Help hurting people. When someone has fallen away from the faith, don't gossip about him or her. Instead, talk with that person privately and do all you can to help restore him or her to a right relationship with God and fellowship with other believers. Be willing to forgive, just as God has forgiven you when you've failed.
Express your views with boldness and respect. Earn the right to be heard by treating people – even those with whom you disagree – with respect. When you talk with them, have a positive attitude and try to find some common ground. If you do so, they'll be much more likely to listen to you than if you had approached them negatively.

It's a great place! We leave our daughter at this facility and it's been a great experience. The staff and teachers are very friendly, well trained and take care of her very well. She sometimes doesn't want to leave the day care. The curicullum is very good and well rounded and the cost is very reasonable compared to the ones around plainsboro, Princeton and Franklin park. What's best is that the facility is brand new and they keep it very clean!
I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
Andrew and Carolyn

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: ASUANG by PAPER MONSTER PRESS
Asuang is an umbrella term for creatures that people our imagination. As blood suckers, they engender in us, a fear of the dark, of morbidity, of paleness, of incense. The fear that desires, the fear that suffocates, not just creatures but open spaces and high places. Fear of beings that when looked at mirrors or through other eyes, resemble perhaps, ourselves? Then here maybe, there be monsters?
Asuang then calls not just for darkness but for hallucinogen, psychedelia, kaleidoscopic narratives in whatever genre.
Specifically, we ask for:
1. 1-3 poems/ essays/ flash fiction (less than 500 words, English or Filipino)
2. 1-3 artworks in black/ white (in JPEG format)
3. 1-3 sound pieces in MP3 or Wav format
4. Critical essays about the small press/ underground publishing/ the culture of fanzines (also under 500 words)
5. Reviews of any issue of Paper Monster Press (and we've done 6 so far)
a. Pyrotechnic Poetry 1
b. Pyrotechnic Poetry 2
c. S/trip-hop
d. Dream(pop)
e. Queer Punk
f. SANDIGmaan
6. A theme for 1 print year
Ex. LOST IN TRANSLATION year
a. Issue 1: Atlantis (about forgetting/ resurfacing/ the abyss/ depths/ drowning/ swan diving)
b. Issue 2: Free Tibet (about culture clash/ Buddhism/ heights/ climbing/ pure dizziness of clouds)
c. Issue 3: Time-space Warp (about timezones/ cultural differences/ time and space/ reincarnation/ and the endless echoes we can never reach)
d. Issue 4: Labyrinths (canals/ road bridges/ the strange and devious routes we take to fantasy/ intoxication/ escape)
1. Send all submissions to email@example.com with the heading: ATTN: ASUANG SUBMISSION
2. The deadline for submissions is on May 31, 2012.
3. Payment is one contributor copy and that warm fuzzy feeling that comes from seeing your name in print. ;)
I love the idea of making a photozine! All of my zines have included lots of photos but I've never made a zine that is focused on the photos.... Hum, sounds like a good new project!
Hey Guys if you have any photographs you want to donate to my brownpaperbundles zine that would be awesome- brownpaperbundles.wordpress.com
Message me on here or email your submission to thechickencoop AT live DOT co DOT uk
The zine I'm currently working on is not using any photos in this first issue that we are creating, but we've all talked about using photos in it in future issues. There's a good chance we are gonna use a photo that I took for the cover of our summer issue. I have taken lots of photos and I'm a big fan of black & white. I have maybe a dozen photos witch look great, but when you cut them in half, they still visually hold their own as a solid photo. We are looking at one of those photos as a possible cover, folded in half it will still look great.
Hi all!
I haven't traded zines in ages, and I'm psyched to trade with folks from this group!
This is my first photo zine of my grandmother and her former home (where she looked after me as a child) in New York. The original photographs were developed and printed by me.

NASCAR Driver Visits Middle Georgia
A racing star is coming to Middle Georgia this weekend all in the name of charity. NASCAR driver and Unadilla native, David Ragan, will head to the 441 Speedway in Dublin Saturday to help raise money for the Shriners Hospitals for Children.
"This is one of the most exciting weekends of stock car racing in Middle Georgia. The first time in history that a NASCAR driver has been to 441 Speedway to appear and to drive in a late model division race," says Willis Wombles, 441 Speedway track promoter.
You can meet David and watch him in action this Saturday at 441 Speedway. From 4pm - 6pm, you can bring the children out for autographs and pictures. The race starts at 7pm. The cost is $10 for general admission and $5 for children. A portion of the proceeds goes to the Shriners Hospitals for Children.
Ragan is a huge supporter of Shriners Hospitals for Children and makes appearances at local racetracks to support the charity.
He drives the #6 UPS Ford for Roush Racing in the NASCAR Cup Series and was the winner of the Coke Zero 400 two weeks ago in Daytona.
He will also be at his dealership, David Ragan Ford, in Perry from 11am to 1pm on Saturday.

A Mercy, published in 2008, joins Toni Morrison's celebrated body of work exploring the African American experiences of slavery and freedom. But in A Mercy, Morrison's handling of those issues is more multifaceted than in her previous novels. Morrison goes back to the beginning of slavery in America, in the late seventeenth century, a period during which America was far more diverse and complex than is generally imagined today. The novel includes Portuguese, Dutch, English, Native American, African, and mixed-race characters, all vying for a place in this new world. Neither religious freedom nor religious tolerance is a given, and while the Southern colonies are clearly strongholds of slavery, the North is by no means an innocent bystander. Diseases such as measles and smallpox run rampant. Nevertheless, there is an Eden-like quality in the beauty and richness of this new world, along with many decencies that transcend the evil elements.
The novel's main narrator, Florens, is a slave born in America of an African mother, originally owned by Portuguese plantation owners. Through an act of mercy, she becomes part of the household of the Vaarks, who are a farming and trading couple. The household includes Florens, one Native American slave, one foundling of mixed race, and two male indentured servants. Each of these characters is given a voice in the story as well. The voices combine to form a narrative that allows the reader to see the history of the characters, as well as their present circumstances, and that allows the plot to move forward as a kind of mosaic. The action in the story is framed by the journey of Florens, a journey that is both literal and figurative.
Because of the complexity and diversity of the setting and the characters, many themes emerge in A Mercy. Morrison explores the concepts of freedom and slavery in every man (and woman), not just within the context of the African American experience. She examines the power of literacy in a world in which literacy is by no means a right, connecting it to freedom and personal autonomy. Biblical themes are present in the work, with America as the Garden of Eden and America as the Promised Land, both perhaps being precursors of the modern "American Dream." The religious intolerance of the Old World is recast in the New World, allowing an exploration of the myth that America is the land of religious freedom. The variability of love is a theme demonstrated through the relationships in the novel—relationships between mother and child, between husband and wife, between two males, and between lovers. Morrison also expands the reader's perspective on what makes a home and what makes a family, showing that these are constructs we create out of need and love, not only out of blood or marriage. And finally, acts of kindness and humanity—large and small—run through the story, showing that it is not so much God's mercy that rescues us as much as it is our mercy to one another.
A Mercy opens with Florens, a black slave, about sixteen years old, on a journey to visit the lover to whom she is addressing her thoughts and feelings. Florens is a literate slave, taught by a priest in defiance of the law. Florens recalls how she was given to her present master, Jacob Vaark, in partial settlement of a debt her prior master, a slave owner from the brutal Portuguese slave colony of Angola, owes to Vaark. Vaark is offered Florens and her mother, but her mother encourages Vaark to take only Florens because her mother is still nursing a baby boy. Florens, about eight years old when she is taken, recounts her shock, pain, and bitterness at this abandonment by her minha mae, "my mother" in Portuguese.
The second chapter, told by a third-person narrator who reveals Jacob's thoughts and feelings, recounts Vaark's journey to meet with D'Ortega and something of his story as an orphan and beneficiary of 120 acres in the New World. Vaark, a trader and businessman, has a soft spot for "orphans and strays." He owns Lina (a Native American slave acquired after Lina's tribe is nearly decimated by an epidemic of measles) and has taken in Sorrow (a half-drowned foundling girl) in another business deal. The reader gets some sense of the politics and prejudice of the period, learning of Vaark's attitude toward the "popishness" of Catholic Maryland and its luxuries, built upon the free labor of slaves, in contrast to his simple life as a northern trader. Vaark comes away from his encounter with D'Ortega feeling he has bested him by getting even partial payment for the debt, but also envying D'Ortega his grand home, envisioning a mansion "rising on a hill above the fog."
Florens continues her journey in the third chapter, telling her lover of the events of her household and of her desire for him, recalling watching him in his sleep—like a seventeenth-century Psyche watching her Cupid. He is revealed to be the African blacksmith, never enslaved, who has fashioned iron gates with kissing cobras for Vaark's new house. Vaark contracts smallpox and dies, after which Rebekka, Vaark's wife, finds two small sores inside her mouth. The household is quarantined, and Rebekka has sent Florens to bring back the blacksmith, who has medical knowledge. As the section ends, Florens settles for the night in a tree, the only place she is safe from human and animal predators.
The fourth chapter focuses on Messalina, or "Lina," purchased by Vaark before he brought Rebekka to the New World as his wife. Lina's story, told in the third person, recounts her beginnings in Vaark's household, her friendship with Rebekka (based on their respective weaknesses and strengths), the addition of Sorrow (the foundling) to the household, and the acquisition of two indentured servants, Willard and Scully. Babies born of Rebekka and Sorrow die early. In the present, Lina sees Vaark's new house as a vain folly that has killed trees "without asking their permission," and that has unsurprisingly led to his death and the precarious status of the remaining Vaark "family," with orphaned females and a dying Mistress. As the section ends, Lina wonders whether Florens, on her journey to the blacksmith, will return at all, with or without the blacksmith.
The sixth chapter finds Florens still on her journey, talking to her blacksmith about making choices and the "looseness" in her, asking, "Is that how free feels." She says that she does not like the feeling.
The seventh chapter returns to Rebekka, who has smallpox and lies in bed with thoughts that "bled into one another, confusing events and time but not people." Hers is a fevered stream-of-consciousness narrated in the third person. She recounts her early life in England with a strict religious upbringing and lack of prospects until her father found Jacob Vaark's advertisement for a wife. She mourns her lost children, the oldest of whom, a daughter, lived until only the age of five. She remembers her voyage to the New World and her pleasure with Vaark. Now, she awaits Florens' return with the blacksmith, who might yet save her.
Florens continues her journey in the eighth chapter. She encounters a group of young Native Americans who offer her drink and food, a small mercy that allows her to continue, and she ponders the advice that Lina, who had been the victim of an abusive...

Kay Barth, I love the idea of writing offices! In regards to your library, Beth Newingham has an awesome organized library. I used her ideas. She also has "book boxes" that the children use to store their books. I am using that for next year because I had the same problem. Check out her site. If you google Beth Newingham and classroom library, you'll get it. Thanks for sharing your reflections!
Happy Teaching, Nancy

Apple Inc. (AAPL) is a stock I follow pretty regularly and as the stock market was bottoming in early June, I noted that AAPL had made its low in the middle of May, which was consistent with a market leading stock.
Even though the daily OBV was not impressive on June 11 I recommended Apple Inc. (AAPL) along with other big technology stocks. With AAPL closing at $580 I recommended going 50% long Apple Inc. (AAPL) at $566.80 and 50% long at $559.60 with a stop at $545.65 (risk of approx. 3.1%). The stop (red line) was placed just under the early June low of $548.50.
On June 28 (point 2), AAPL dropped to a low of $565.61 before a seven-day rally to a high of $619.87 (point 3). The stop was then raised to $564.80, which was just under the prior low. The sharp drop in the latter part of July took AAPL to a low of $570 (point 4) and tested the 50% Fibonacci retracement support of the rally from the May low to the July high.
When AAPL made a new rally high of $621.73 in early August I raised the stop to $575.64 (point 5) to lock in a small profit. While I was on vacation in August, AAPL made new all-time highs at $674.88, so upon my return I raised the stop slightly to $584.20, which was well under the psychological support at $600.
By the middle of September, AAPL made another new high at $685.50 (point 7), so I raised the stop quite a bit to $633.79, which was well under the late August low of $648.11. Of course, AAPL quickly pushed above the $700 level, hitting a high of $705.07, which was not far below my August upside target at $714.
APPL gapped lower on September 24, and heavy selling the following day (point 8) was a sign of weakness. Either closing out the position or using a tighter stop would have been a better approach than keeping the stop at $633.79, which was hit almost two weeks later, point 9.
In the retail space Macy's Inc. (M) has always been one of my favorite stocks especially during the fall, which is a strong seasonal period for this industry group. Last July, there were some positive technical signs for the retail stocks like Macy's Inc. (M).
The weekly chart showed that the 50% Fibonacci retracement support from the August 2011 low had been tested with the 61.8% support at $30.04. This was a classic example of how Fibonacci analysis can help you determine good entry levels when no one else is looking.
There was also good chart support from the July 2011 highs at $30.40-$30.65. At the time the relative performance or RS analysis had turned up from support after confirming the previous highs. The OBV was below its WMA but was holding well above support, line d.

Zachary Thomas Duke (born April 19, 1983 in Clifton, Texas) is an All-Star starting pitcher in Major League Baseball who currently plays for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Duke bats and throws left-handed.
Duke was drafted directly out of Midway High School in Waco, Texas, in the 20th round of the 2001 draft, and began his career the following year with the Pirates' rookie level Gulf Coast League team. He spent 2003 with the low-A Hickory Crawdads.
In 2004, Duke led all minor league pitchers with a 1.46 earned run average (24 earned runs in 148.1 innings pitched). He posted a 15-6 record in 26 combined starts between Class-A Lynchburg and Double-A Altoona, and his 15 wins tied for third-most among all minor league pitchers.
