Displaying Duplicates from UNION ALL Table
I figured out how to display a list of duplicate values from an individual database table. However, I haven't yet figured out how to display duplicates in a series of tables.
Examples of the kinds of duplicates I might expect include URL = George_Washington (the name of a U.S. president displayed at MySite/People/George_Washington and a ship @ MySite2/Topics/George_Washington) and URL = Gary_Locke (a person discussed in two articles at MySite/People/Gary_Locke and MySite2/People_Gary_Locke).
In summary, I simply want to display a list of every value in the field URL (which corresponds to the fields Taxon and Name). It would be really cool if I could display a list of URL's with their respective sites and sections, like this:
George_Washington | MySite | People
George_Washington | MySite2 | Topics
But if all I can do is display a simple list of URL's, that would be fine. I'm going to be doing a lot of work with duplicates, and I need to learn some tricks for manipulating them. Thanks.
$stm = $pdo->prepare("SELECT 'GZ' AS GSiteID, NULL as Site, 'Life' AS GSection, GZL.Taxon AS URL FROM gz_life GZL WHERE GZL.Taxon = :MyURL UNION ALL SELECT 'All' AS GSiteID, NULL as Site, 'World' AS GSection, GG.Name AS URL FROM gw_geog GG WHERE GG.Name = :MyURL UNION ALL SELECT 'GS' AS GSiteID, NULL as site, 'World' AS GSection, GS.URL FROM gs GS WHERE GS.URL = :MyURL UNION ALL SELECT 'PX' AS GSiteID, Site, 'People' AS GSection, Ppl.URL FROM people Ppl WHERE Ppl.URL = :MyURL"); $stm->execute(array( 'MyURL'=>$MyURL ));

easiest approach here is to declare a view for your UNION query (but without the WHERE conditions that isolate a single url)
then just go ahead and pull the duplicates using the same sql that you've used before to pull duplicates from a tablerudy.ca | @rudydotca

Thank, r937; that sounds like something cool to learn about.
P.S. Is CREATE VIEW something that can only be done in phpMyAdmin > SQL, or can it be used to replace a more traditional query on a web page? It looks like an SQL thing to me, but some of the tutorials I've checked out make it sound like people actually use it on their web pages.

Former Memphis wrestling legend and promoter Corey Maclin was killed late Tuesday evening in a car crash on I-55 near Sardis, Miss.
The Mississippi Highway Patrol says the 43-year-old Maclin was southbound on I-55 just south of Sardis in Panola County around 10:30 p.m., Tuesday when his vehicle swerved into oncoming traffic and rolled over, throwing him from his vehicle.
Maclin was pronounced dead on the scene. He was alone in the vehicle. The cause of the crash is under investigation.
Maclin was a fixture in the Bluff City for decades. He was a wrestler, wrestling promoter, announcer, and formerly worked with Jerry "The King" Lawler before the two became embroiled in a trademark lawsuit over the name "Memphis Wrestling."
For two years in 2010 he was the sports anchor at WPTY Channel 24 in Memphis and also ran for office in Shelby County, Tenn.
Maclin will be mostly remembered on television next to a wrestling ring on Saturday mornings talking about wrestling. It was just one of the many faces of Maclin. He was a sports anchor, marketing executive, husband and father. In an instant he was gone.
Lawler said he got the bad news about Maclin early Tuesday at his East Memphis home.
"Well I woke up early this morning with my phone blowing up with my friends and the news people calling with the news," "The King" said. "It was just a total shock. You never expect to hear something like this. Especially with the passing of Jackie Fargo and then now Corey Maclin. It's just one sadness after another."
'Fargo Strut' wrestler Jackie Fargo passes away (June 2013)
Memphis attorney John Michael Bailey was a fan first and then a client.
"I met Corey. He had called and was interested in sponsoring something on studio wrestling," Bailey recalled. "Corey came out, sat down. Of course anybody who ever met Corey always made an indelible impression a spark plug of life. I think he could sell ice in the Antarctic, and very soon we started doing sponsorships on studio wrestling."
It was a relationship that lasted for years.
"Corey invited us back stage to meet all the wrestlers," Bailey said. "I got introduced to Jerry Lawler and Jimmy Hart and all the other guys who were good guys one week and bad guys the next week. We did a lot of appearances. In fact, I had this picture in my office, this picture right here was taken by Cory Maclin."
Several years ago Lawler and Maclin had a falling out over business. Lawler said it has been over a year since he had spoken to a man that at one time was a huge part of his life.
"It's one of those things I think a lot about this morning," Lawler said. "One of those situations when you know it's wrong to hold a grudge and keep harboring hard feelings toward someone because in the end that stuff becomes trivial. You think back to the good times and the friendship you had with a person and you realize how petty the misunderstanding really was.
"I feel so badly for Corey's family because Carmella, his wife and his kids, are wonderful people. Just great people," Lawler added.
Kevin Lawler, Jerry's son, told FOX13 News that the Memphis Wildfire Wrestling Organization is holding a memorial service Wednesday evening to honor Maclin. The memorial event starts at 7 p.m. at the Boston Baptist Church.
Funeral arrangements for Maclin have not been set. He leaves behind a wife and six children.
Maclin Family Statement:
We are grateful and dearly touched for the overwhelming outpouring of support and concern from our community concerning the loss of our beloved Corey. Corey Maclin loved Memphis and Memphians, and he dedicated his life to bringing joy and happiness to the whole Memphis community through the venues of news, entertainment, and through public service.
Obviously, this is a time of great grief and sadness for us. We appreciate you keeping us in your prayers while our family embraces each other and tries to find some comfort at this unexpected and devastating loss of such a great man. We thank you in advance for respecting our privacy.
We will issue a statement regarding memorial and funeral arrangements at a later date.
The Maclin Family

My Way: Mike Lieberman
This week's My Way feature comes to us from Brooklyn, NY. Mike Lieberman is a hip hop loving, glam rock bump'n, raw food eating, urban gardener who loves to share. Mike can regularly be found talking about the his passions on Twitter and his blog. He loves New York and he loves life... and ladies, yes, Mike is single. Holla!
My Way: Mike Lieberman
I woke up at 9am, surprisingly early for the weekend, considering that I've been getting to bed mad late and waking up early during the week. It's all good though because I have a lot going on and can't get any of it done while in bed.
I get up and do what's become my morning routine of dry brushing my skin, cleaning out my sinuses with a neti pot, brushing my teeth, pounding a mason jar of lemon water and preparing my green smoothie: lacinto kale, aloe, grapes and figs. I pour it into my six-cup mason jar and get my day going. Green smoothies are my raw staple.
There's lots of my list of to dos for the day, most of which revolved around one project that I'm working on - organic vegetable gardening across New York City at my Manhattan apartment, my Grandmother's Brooklyn backyard and my parents condo in Staten Island.
Mind you I have zero experience in gardening, so the whole thing should be interesting. Part of this project is also documenting it all in a blog, which should've been the easy part since my 9-5 job is in online marketing. I didn't have the blog idea until a few weeks after starting, so I've been busy playing catch up while moving forward with the plans.
I get organized for the day and head out the door to the Farmers Market at Union Square to get some more info on gardening. When speaking with one of the farmers, I learn that some of the vegetables should have already been planted. Um oooopps.
For lunch, I head to EarthMatters Cafe so I can continue to work. I get a stalk of celery and two pears. When I asked the cashier for a tray to bring it up to the cafe, she responds with "That's it? That's all you're going to eat?
" My response, "Yes."
After a few hours at the Cafe, I head back to my apartment. Since my fridge is a bare I stopped at a local raw friendly restaurant, Caravan of Dreams, for dinner. I had the Live Nachos, which in my opinion are the best flax-chips-nacho-dish that I've ever had. I also had the Live Sprout Sandwich.
I head back to my apartment and stay up until 3am to knock the rest of the things off of my "To Do" list.
Even though I was up mad late on Saturday, I was up at 9:30 Sunday. There is too much going on for me to be in bed sleeping. I take care of my morning routine and make a swiss chard, cucumber, strawberries and fig green smoothie.
I set up my video camera and film the making of the smoothie for another web site that I'm working of easy and simple raw food recipes. There are a lot of gourmet sites, but haven't come across many that provide recipes that are sustainable on a daily basis. I am hoping to launch that one next week.
While sipping on my smoothie, I start back working on the gardening site again. Before I can blink it's 1pm and I'm still in my PJs. I give my parents a call to see what their plans are for the day and ask if they could pick me up from the ferry, so I can build some of the self-watering containers for their place.
I arrive at their place around 3:30. My plans were to build all of the self-watering containers for their place and to shoot a how to video of building one of the buckets. Getting comfortable in front of the camera is one of the challenges for me in this project since I'm not a fan of being the center of attention. I am attempting to break that by forcing myself into it.
When I finally look at the clock it's close to 6. I haven't eaten since the smoothie and strange enough I'm fine. My parents didn't have much of an organic produce selection at their apartment. I find broccoli and onion, cut them up and just pick at them while continuing to build the containers. It's funny how some days I just don't feel like eating and I feel fine.
My father takes me to catch the 9 o'clock ferry home. I wind up getting back to my apartment around 10:30. On the ferry ride home I had the idea for make apple/zucchini wraps for dinner Monday night. So I got those prepared, popped them in the dehydrator and continued to work until 2am.
Not sure what is going on with me, but I was up and ready to go at 5:45 this morning. I headed out the door to get my morning workout on of a two-mile run along the East River and a prison yard workout on the jungle gym at Tompkins Square Park.
After finishing my workout I headed back to my apartment for my green smoothie - celery, banana and soaked dates. If there is one thing that you takeaway from reading this I hope that it is you start keeping soaked dates in your fridge.
I get my lunch ready while drinking my smoothie. Lunch was romaine hearts with some cherry tomatoes, cucumber, onion and dill. At work I have a big glass salad bowl that I mix everything up in.
I also get the filling for the apple zucchini wraps ready by making a coconut curry sauce, chopped up some veggies and threw them in the fridge to marinate.
When I get home from work, I have the apple zucchini wraps and coconut curry vegetables waiting for me. Definitely hit the spot and easily made.
Then I got to finishing up the gardening site. About 10 minutes into working, I got a sweet craving. Very rarely do I eat past 8pm, but I caved into this craving and and had some of the leftover raw chocolate cookie chip dough in the fridge. That's the bad part about having left overs. It's not a completely bad thing, but the seeds don't combine well with the apples that were in the wraps. The rest of the night my room didn't smell the best, I had a different kind of potpourri going on. That's why I do my best to properly combine what works for me, if you know what I mean.
At around 11 I put the finishing touches on version one of the site. It's not perfect, but good enough for public consumption at this point. It will definitely be refined. I am just happy to get to bed before midnight. The smell I could do without.
The morning green smoothie of the day is dandelion, parsley and mangoes. Always hesitant on the dandelion, but it's something different. As I am taking down my smoothie, I prepare my lunch for the day. A head of green leaf lettuce and sliced onion with a pumpkin and pistachio taco dressing. I get showered, ready and head into work.
During the morning, I "launch" version one my gardening site by tweeting about it. I was happy and impressed by the love that I received from the Twitterverse. Much appreciation to my friends who helped to spread the word. The last few weeks have been a bit hectic playing catch-up, but I am happy with the result at this point.
After work, I pick up my weekly CSA share and head home to prepare my dinner of green leaf lettuce with onion, olives, parsley and dill in a celery, ginger and pear dressing.
No time for resting, at 12:30am the finishing touches are put on another site that people can share their raw food photos on, and I finally get to bed.
Awake way too early at 5:30am, head out the door to get in my workout, launch another site and start another day... My Way. Did you expect something less?

activities and attractions in Lubec Maine
Lubec is home to the West Quoddy Head Lighthouse, at the easternmost point of land in the contiguous U.S. The Down East area showcases nature at her finest. Whales, eagles, osprey, moose, and bear inhabit the region. During migration season, whales pass close enough to be seen from shore! Local whale and puffin tours provide the opportunity to observe nature up close and personal. Beach roses, wild iris, and beach peas line the pristine shoreline. The area is host to three state parks, two international parks, a national wildlife refuge, and several nature preserves, all of which offer a variety of well maintained hiking trails. The area is rich in history—the first naval battle of the Revolutionary War was fought in nearby Machiasport. Maine's own "Cannery Row" lined the waterfronts of Lubec and Eastport with sardine canning factories. You'll find it all here—rich history, spectacular scenery, abundant wildlife, and friendly people. You won't find pollution, crowds, or traffic jams.

text: Yes, Pete, you are right - it is frustrating at times. After a pretty good corn crop last year (scale of 1 to 10, I'd say a 6), I figured this year, I'd plant it all at once instead of staggered plantings as in years past. Seemed the late corn never did any good - maybe too hot, too dry, too many pests. So this year was gonna be different. Planted 20 rows one Saturday, 20 rows the next. Didn't even come up. You know the rest. I did shoot one renegade squirrel when I saw him out there digging up the seed, but geez, can 1 squirrel eat 40 rows of seed? He sure was fat and enjoying himself till that .22 went through him. Maybe I should have planted him - I'd had more corn!

Newsboy & Ivy
What exactly is a newsboy cap you ask? They are also described as a baker boy, golf cap, or a driver hat. They are usually made with a small brim in front and a flat top. We feature these in many designs including, cabbie, Gatsby, and Apple & 8 Quarter and more. Another popular hat type is the ivy cap. An ivy cap is a flat cap founded in Scotland that started off being the hat of the working class, but later turned into a more elegant hat style of the upper class. You will also find an ascot hat here that is similar to an ivy cap but is distinguished by its hardness and round shape. Many of our newsboy hats are available in big size 2XL to 3XL sizes so that your fashion sense does not have to be limited by the size of your head. We have a unique design or color option for everybody. You are sure to find a newsboy or ivy hat or cap to fit your life.

In today's tough business climate, distributors must become low-cost, high-quality service providers to survive. To accomplish this lofty goal, they must maintain strong, long-term relationships with customers by providing them with high-quality products and superior customer service while at the same time aggressively reducing their unit costs of distribution.
It can be done. Many best-in-class supply houses in a variety of distribution trades are re-engineering their operations for efficiency, productivity, quality of services and profitability. They have learned to work smarter, not faster, and to measure their progress against a series of rigid standards designed to continuously improve their performance so they can perform at a higher level than the competition. This includes setting aggressive corporate goals and supporting strategies that will help them continuously improve performance and provide the necessary foundation for their company's success. These goals, such as cutting turnaround time for processing orders in half or increasing inventory turns by 50 percent or more, require detailed action plans and strategies on how to achieve them. Following is a quick review of the key strategies you should consider implementing when you are tuning up your operations.
Lean thinking
Distributors that want to excel need to take a fresh look at their key business processes and identify bottlenecks and redundant activities. They should employ "lean thinking" concepts and methods and target these initiatives to eliminating all non-value-added activities and inventory. Lean thinking can help them re-engineer all key work-flow processes, internal controls and management information systems related to sales and the entire fulfillment process, from the creation of customer orders to the shipment of goods. The objective is to maximize the productivity of all processes, eliminate bottlenecks, improve inventory management capabilities and improve overall systems utilization. To learn more about lean thinking, check out my articles on the subject at www.ewweb.com. Just type "lean thinking" into the search engine in the right column.
In conjunction with streamlining activities, state-of-the-art technology can help. Consider investing in the following technologies:
Automated picking. Effective utilization of radio frequency (RF) and bar-code scanning technology allows for truly "paperless" warehousing and distribution capabilities. RF allows the computer system to send picking instructions directly to designated pickers through their hand-held devices. The system directs what orders to pick, the sequence in which to pick them and the storage locations to pick the product from. It also ensures correct picking by verifying that the bar code identification specified matches the actual item picked. Companies that have successfully integrated this capability have reported dramatic improvements in overall order accuracy, elimination of shipments not billed, the ability to hire less skilled and less expensive picking labor, dramatic improvements in the time necessary to pick orders and the elimination of the order checking functions.
Packing, staging, loading and logistics management
The use of computer-generated shipping routes, direct staging and loading manifests are critical to the success of the operation. Loading manifests identify all packages/cartons with their assigned carrier/delivery vehicle, carrier staging location and loading sequence. This dramatically reduces the amount of effort required. Consequently, trucks leave earlier while the loading staff can be reduced. Best-in-class distributors also track and analyze their actual costs per delivery to more adequately allocate delivery costs to specific customers. For example, customers that routinely order small quantities of low-margin products, have inefficient receiving docks causing wait time or are in isolated geographic regions are all scrutinized to ensure proper cost allocation in the distributors overall business mix.
Customer invoice processing
Paperless warehousing and distribution allows for the elimination of office copies of all orders. Pickers confirm ship quantities as they scan products. As a result, customers are billed only for the picker's actual pick quantity. This virtually eliminates billing mistakes and the need to archive paper copies of orders. Accordingly, distributors that have implemented paperless environments are significantly reducing invoicing and filing staff.
Product receipt, storage and accounts payable
All products are scanned immediately at point of receipt. The system immediately knows what's in the building, and all internal receiving documents can be eliminated. Back orders are reduced, inventory turns are improved, and paying for product that has not been received is eliminated. Arduous tasks performed by the accounts payable staff such as obtaining paperwork from the receiving department and researching internal support documents is eliminated. Consequently, distributors have reduced headcount in their receiving and accounts payable departments.
Inventory accuracy and cycle counting
Improvements in the recording, tracking and controlling of workflow processes allow for a greater level of inventory accuracy. Distributors no longer perform traditional physical inventory counting. Discrepancies of either count or storage location uncovered during picking or stock put-away activities automatically generate a cycle count check in the system. This allows errors to be corrected on a daily basis, substantially improving inventory accuracy, improving cash flow and inventory turns. When used effectively, distributors report inventory accuracy levels of more than 98 percent.
Supply chain and purchasing management
Best-in-class distributors are utilizing supply chain management techniques to improve their strategic relationships with their suppliers. EDI is utilized to increase efficiency and lower the cost of ordering, price changing, receiving, invoicing, and payment; vendor-managed inventory (VMI) is also popular with these market leaders.
Insides sales/customer service
The role of the inside salesperson has evolved. Customers increasingly want their customer service person to provide a single point of contact for all questions they may have, including product use/application, order status, credit, returns, billing, problem solving and complaints. In order for this to be effective, distributors must ensure that the inside sales/customer service staff is plugged in to the company's strategy and tactics like never before. In poorly managed environments, up to 50 percent of an inside salesperson's time can be spent correcting mistakes and pacifying customers. With distributors committed to operational excellence, 90 percent of the time inside sales/customer service staff can be performing more value-added customer service. And don't forget your outside sales organization. It should utilize a more consultative selling approach consistent among all salespeople, while benefiting from sales force automation tools.
Performance metrics
Activity-based costing and other performance metrics are now widely used to reduce costs and improve customer service. Strive to develop formal measurement systems that measure inventory accuracy, order fill-rates and order-processing costs. This allows management to consistently focus on improvement of the operation's effectiveness.
Optimizing management's role
Historically, management at a distributor was primarily focused on micro-managing line work, creating customer service exceptions for delivery, price and credit, excusing service blunders, and looking for "superstar" personnel with the ability to operate in a hectic environment and meet the increasing service demands of the customer. It's much more productive if managers can focus more on proactively meeting with customers and vendors, coaching to solve problems, leading, planning, staffing and developing more consistent performance results among staff personnel. In short, management roles must be optimized to allow management to spend less time micro-managing and more time directing and leading the efforts of a motivated staff.
Achieving true operational excellence will require a thorough rethinking of your core business processes. But if you are losing market share in this tough business environment, it's a critical exercise that can pay dividends far into the future.

EYEWITNESS SPORTSMU To Hit The Road For C-USA Championship
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported by: C-USA Press Release/Josh Lewis
Videographer: AJ Good
December 1, 2013
West Division champion Rice will host East Division champion Marshall in the 2013 Conference USA Football Championship Game on Saturday, December 7. The Owls (7-1 in C-USA play, 9-3 overall) did not face the Thundering Herd (7-1 in C-USA play, 9-3 overall) during the regular season, so the host site for the game was determined by the BCS rankings. The 2013 C-USA Championship Game will be televised live on ESPN 2, beginning at Noon EST/11 a.m. CST.
While the BCS standings technically only rank 1 - 25, as that is all that is required for the BCS, the formula (which equally weights the Coaches poll, Harris poll, and computer polls for a BCS average) can be extended to determine the relative positions of teams.
When extended, while Marshall did receive votes in each of the two human polls, the value of those votes was not significant enough to offset the relative strength of Rice in the computer polls.
Both schools will be making their first appearance in the C-USA Football Championship Game.
Marshall leads the all-time series, 3-1, including a wild 54-51 victory in their last meeting, Sept. 22, 2012 at Rice Stadium. The Thundering Herd has won both meetings in Huntington, W. Va., while the teams are 1-1 in Houston.
The Thundering Herd will be playing for its first conference championship since winning their sixth straight Mid-American conference title in 2002. The Owls won a share of the Southwest Conference championship in 1994 and their last outright conference title was the 1957 SWC championship.
Tickets for the C-USA Football Championship game will be go on sale Monday morning at 8:30 a.m. CST and will be available in person at Tudor Fieldhouse, by phone at 713-522-OWLS or online at www.RiceOwls.com. For more information, Please visit the football championship page on www.ConferenceUSA.com.

The New Mexico Lobos keep nipping at the back end of the Top 25 polls each week, but they have yet to crack either of them. Wednesday night's 75-70 loss to the San Diego St. Aztecs, 75-70, won't help matters, as it ended a 13-game winning streak. The Lobos are now 1-1 in Mountain West play while the Aztecs improved to 2-0.
Xavier Thomas led the Aztecs with 22 points on 7-of-11 shooting, including 3-of-5 on three-pointers. Jamaal Franklin and Chase Tapley each followed with 12 points. Tapley added seven rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks to his stats line.
New Mexico was hurt by poor shooting, making just 39.1 of its shots. Phillip McDonald led the scoring with 20 points while Kendall Williams and Drew Gordon added 16 and 15 points, respectively. Gordon pulled down eight boards and dished the ball out for five assists.
The 15-3 Lobos face the No. 14 UNLV Rebels on the road this Saturday, The 16-2 Aztecs return home to host the Air Force

Southeast is the right place for Racheal Culberson. An integrated marketing communications major and a Spanish minor, Racheal is an energetic person who is passionate about helping others. She displays this same passion everyday through her work on campus. The people at Southeast are so nice and willing to help people, according to Racheal, that her daily experience with faculty and staff changing students' lives makes her want to do the same thing.
"I live to help people," says Racheal.
Racheal had the opportunity to practice her marketing skills this past summer, when she worked as an intern for University Directories, a company based out of Chapel Hill, N.C. The company constructs and produces directories for campuses across the nation. As part of a sales team, Racheal interacted with local business representatives as she helped them advertise in the Southeast Missouri State University directory.
"Any job where I can talk to people, be passionate about what I do and help them - I love that," she explained.
It has been a long, fun ride according to Racheal, who graduates in May. After an uneasy freshman year in which she dealt with the struggle of leaving a close-knit family, she found solace in the opportunities provided by Southeast. She became involved in several campus groups, citing Minority Student Programs and Alpha Kappa Psi, the business fraternity, as the most beneficial. Today she is involved in several programs including Alpha Kappa Psi, for which she is the rush chair, the Multicultural Recruitment Team for the Office of Admissions, the All University Judicial Board, Gear Up Mentoring and Alpha Mu Gamma, the national foreign language honor society. In addition, she works 30 hours per week.
In her "spare" time, Racheal enjoys working out, reading about fitness and health, spending time with her friends and just unwinding.
After graduation, Racheal wants to gain real-world experience before she heads to graduate school. Her ultimate plan is to become the vice president of sales for a corporation and then retire in the real estate business.
Through her collegiate life, Racheal says she has learned that the ability to talk to people and build relationships is the key to getting far in life. Her advice to current and future students is to get involved and meet people.
"Take advantage of the opportunities Southeast has to offer," says Racheal. "Everyone at the school is willing to help you."
Racheal is a great example of all that can be accomplished by those who utilize all the opportunities available at Southeast.

It's a topic few are keen to talk about, but more and more people are coming together online to make a pledge to "make it OK" to openly discuss about mental illness in an effort to end stigma, lower suicide rates and reduce both violence and injury nationwide.
JUMP TO: Suicides in MN | Data | Map | Hope | Resources | Signs | Prevention
The 2013 campaign launched by Minnesota-based HealthPartners seeks to end the stigma around mental illness and the online toolkit provides tips to help people learn to broach subjects that may seem taboo.
Visitors to the site are encouraged to take the pledge and share their commitment on social media sites, and the organizations involved contend the sooner it spreads and people start talking, the sooner understanding will replace stigma.
The effort comes at an opportune time for Minnesota, where mental illness is making itself known in the form of a record number of suicides in the state.
Suicide is a growing problem in Minnesota, with numbers increasing year after year for the last decade. In fact, it's the 9th leading cause of death in the state, and the 2nd leading cause of death for Minnesota youth.
The most recent data from the Minnesota Department of Health reported a record number of suicides in 2011. Although the numbers from 2012 have not yet been completely compiled, officials project that 2012 will likely set a new one.
Yet, there is some good news to be found in the 2011 data -- prevention efforts are working. Although adult rates continue to climb, Minnesota youth and seniors struggling with suicidal thoughts are responding to outreach efforts. That has local coordinators feeling hopeful as the state begins to revamp and expand its prevention plan.
In the past 5 years, 3,034 lives have been lost to suicide in Minnesota. With the state's suicide rate increasing year over year and across times of both economic prosperity and downturn, the trend is of great concern to public health officials.
Although the rates among seniors and young adults held relatively steady in years past, death certificate data from 2011 showed suicide rates rose among all age groups that year.
No county in the state is suicide-free, according to state data from 2007-2011. The highest rates are seen in rural portions of the state, particularly in the northeastern portion near Bemidji.
EXPANDED MAP: Suicide data by county between 2007-2011
The suicide rate for Minnesotans between the ages of 25 and 64 have continued to increase steadily despite a small dip in 2005, and state prevention experts say outreach geared toward that age group is clearly needed.
Rates have risen among both sexes in the past 10 years. The age-adjusted rate for men increased from 15.4 per 100,000 in 1992 to 20.2 in 2011, a 31 percent increase. For women, the rate increased by 67 percent over the same time period, from 3.0 to 5.0.
Research has shown that 90 percent of those who die by suicide had been suffering with an underlying mental illness or struggled with substance abuse at the time of their death.
Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the United States as a whole and the 3rd leading cause of death for American youth, according to the CDC.
Minnesota has the 10th lowest suicide rate among the states, and officials attribute that to the active prevention strategies currently in place.
Suicide is a multiple-stressor problem and is seldom linked to one life event. Rather, a combination of stressors usually leads a person to feel overwhelmed and hopeless, which is why state health officials say promoting hope is a crucial.
Many people experience periods of feeling hopeless at some point in their lives, particularly after a painful personal loss and during relationship transitions; however, outreach specialists and volunteers stress that isolation is a perception and there are always resources available to those in need.
Additionally, prevention experts at the Minnesota Department of Health say outreach efforts are working among seniors and youth, and the state Legislature has approved additional funding to expand hotline services and mental health care access throughout the state.
In 2011, many counties in northeast Minnesota debuted TXT4Life, a texting crisis service providing outreach and education to both youth and adults via Canvas Health and Crisis Connection. It is currently available in the following counties:
- Aitkin
- Carlton
- Cook
- Itasca
- Koochiching
- Lake
- St. Louis
TXT4Life is also available to the Bois Forte, Fond Du Lac, Grand Portage and Red Lake tribes, and the Minnesota Legislature provided funding to expand the initiative throughout the state in 2013.
To use it, anyone in those areas can text the word "LIFE" to 839863 to be connected to help.
Crisis Connection is available to any Minnesotan by phone as well, and can provide counseling as well as referral information or emergency interventions as needed. The toll-free crisis line for Minnesota is 1-866-379-6363, and it is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. They also have a local number at 612-379-6363.
First responders in Maplewood also are pushing for suicide prevention after an increase in the community. In September, EMTS and firefighters issued a plea to the public, encouraging citizens to reach out to public safety staff for help during depression-related crises. Police and fire personnel have been trained to respond themselves, and they can also provide a list of local resources.
The state also provides grants to local communities to implement suicide reduction strategies, and current grantees include the Evergreen House Youth & Family Services, National Alliance on Mental Illness-Minnesota (NAMI-MN) and Suicide Awareness Voices of Education (SAVE).
There are several warning signs of suicidal thoughts or behavior that loved ones can keep an eye out for. The more of the following behaviors a person exhibits, the greater the risk they may attempt self-harm.
1. Sleeping too little or too much
2. Increasing the use of alcohol or other drugs
3. Displaying extreme mood swings
4. Acting anxious, agitated or recklessly
5. Showing rage or talking about seeking revenge
6. Withdrawing or feeling isolated
7. Talking about feeling trapped or in unbearable pain
8. Talking about being a burden to others
9. Talking about feeling hopeless or having no purpose
10. Talking about wanting to die
11. Looking for a way to kill oneself
Those who are concerned about a friend or loved one are urged not to leave that person alone and to remove firearms, alcohol, drugs and any sharp objects that could be used in a suicide attempt.
In a crisis situation, a person can turn to an emergency room or a mental health professional. Law enforcement officers across the state are also trained to respond to mental health crises, and loved ones can request welfare checks as well.
To get specific recommendations, advocates can also call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8225.
Going forward, the Minnesota Department of Health intends to expand outreach efforts for middle-aged Minnesotans to stop the increasing rate. Melissa Heinen has been appointed suicide prevention coordinator, and she will oversee the formation of the updated prevention plan.
According to Jon Roesler, Heinen's supervisor in the MDH Injury and Violence Prevention Unit, the updated plan will incorporate national strategies developed by the National Action Alliance, a partnership of public and private entities, as well as localized tactics. Development and implementation is set to begin in earnest early in 2014.
Minnesota's current prevention plans rely on the fact that mental illness is treatable, and significant advances have been made in training health care professionals to identify mental health conditions and refer patients to appropriate treatment.

The starboard-helm console is well laid out with great access to the dash electronics, equipment switches and controls. There is also a storage area under the console accessed from the inside centerline. The swiveling helm chair features a flip-up bolster to convert it to a leaning post, and offers good visibility through the windscreen.
One of the coolest things on our test boat was what Whaler calls the Summer Kitchen. Just aft of the starboard helm chair, this optional fully molded fiberglass cabinet has Corian countertops, a full sink with faucet, a grill, a 12-volt stainless-steel under-counter refrigerator, a swing-out Corian grill cover that expands counter space, storage drawers, tool holders, and storage underneath. Do not cheat yourself and get the 54-quart cooler that is standard: Go for the Summer Kitchen with shore power, charging system and inverter for on-the-water use. This feature alone will increase your boating days with family and friends exponentially, and will without question help its resale value when you are ready to move up.
The cockpit is large with plenty of room for fishing. There is a large in-deck hatch to access the lazarette and all of its neatly placed pumps and through-hulls. There is a recessed, foldout transom seat that offers a comfortable ride and yet tucks away nicely so as not to interfere with fishing. When you order the fishing package, you get a 19-gallon livewell and three additional transom-mounted rod holders. There is a walk-through transom door with access to the swim platform.
Our 270 Vantage test boat was rigged with twin Mercury Verado 225 hp outboards. With four aboard and three-quarters fuel, it jumped on plane easily and loped along comfortably on the calm, rolling swell off Port Everglades. It turned nicely with good lateral stability, and exhibited no unnatural seakeeping tendencies during our ride.
If I were a part-time recreational nearshore fisherman, and enjoyed family time on the boat and wanted to have more of that, I would be all over the 270 Vantage. The 270 has features found on much-larger boats, and they are just as well executed. It had the potential to offer a family a lifetime of memories, great catches and good times — something we all want from our time on the water.

Hard pour doesn't yield more than 1 finger of foam above a copper body, some lacing but not much. Bitterness is a bit vegetal and uses the tea-like characteristics from the hops mixed with some light minerals. Not bad overall but nothing more.

3.95/5 rDev +16.5%
Served from a 341ml bottle
A: A nice copper-tan color topped with dense looking white head that left thick and inviting looking lacing behind. Retention was great as well.
S: The hops are very present to the smell and give a strong grapefruit scent. Maybe a little bit of citrus too. The malts are faint but still there and caramely aromas are slightly detectable.
T: Once again grape fruits are present in the taste. But there is also a fairly dominant fresh grassy hop flavor that was not made as apparent in the aroma. Citrus highlights are also there. The aftertaste has some slight sweet caramel malts in it but hops are definitely the backbone of this beers flavor.
M: Crisp finish and fairly easy drinking.
O: This was a good beer for the style in my opinion. I've had very few IPA's and honestly never cared for the style to much but this was pretty intriguing. I might buy it again and thought it was pretty good in the end.

Got this at Depanneur Peluso in Montreal. Fantastic store!
From a bottle into a snifter
APPEARANCE: Pours a small, one finger, looser looking, fizzy, off-white head with decent retention. Clear, burnt umber with medium carbonation evident. Head fades to a decent wisp. A splotchy wisp remains until the end and leaves dots of lacing down the glass.
SMELL: Pale malts, floral hop notes and a touch of melon aromas. Light pineapple is there and some soapy notes as well. A touch too mild perhaps, though what's there is alright.
TASTE: Pale malts, light melon flavors and some floral hop bitterness at the swallow. Bold aftertaste of floral hop bitterness, a touch of caramel sweetness and a light soapy quality. The soapiness is not my style, but this is a solid effort.
PALATE: Medium body and medium carbonation. Creamy smooth on the palate, a touch oily as well, goes down smooth and finishes slightly dry. Good feel.
OVERALL: This is a decent IPA, but nothing worth writing home about. Glad to have drunk it and would get it again if I saw it somewhere. Solid offering.

This is a slightly above average English IPA. It pours copper, isn't too bitter and has a crisp taste and light mouthfeel for the style. Nose is peppery and taste is well banned but a bit bland. Not a bad beer but there are better beers out there in this style.

12 oz bottle, brought back from my recent trip to Quebec, in my Pretty Things pint glass.
A- deep reddish amber, no haze, weak head, but persistent, with lacings
S- hops , with a bit of malt
T - oily hops taste out front, nicely bitter. Good malt finish. Classic IPA flavor
M - fizz is in there. thick and sticky enough, while still very drinkable
O - I like this one a lot - best one I had from Quebec on the trip.

I had this one out of a pint glass. It was a darker amber color than I expected it with not too much head. The flavor was very light on citrus and a little more roasty tasting than I'd expected.
Overall this was pretty good even though I'm not a huge fan of IPAs in general. The bitterness was not as much as I was expecting which, for me, was a good thing but if you're an IPA fan who's looking for a tremendous amount of hop flavor you might now find it quite as good as I did.

Poured in a pint glass.
A: Dark amber color with an off-white head of about 2 fingers.
S: Fruity hop mostly, citrus, some biscuit malt. Enjoyable smell really.
T: Citrusy hops and fruit. Malt is present again. It follows the nose well. There is some bitterness in the aftertaste.
M: Medium body. A little dryness in the end, it fits the style nicely.
D: A good English IPA and it's fairly easy to drink.

Bottle from Broue HAHA.
A - Pours a darkish golden colour. Bright, with carbonation on the lighter end of the medium spectrum. One finger of creamy off white head. Good rings of lacing come out with a half finger of head retention. Nice looking.
S- Piney hops with some caramel and grapefruit. Not bad.
T - More caramel but still very hop forward. Good grapefruit and pine. Not an overly adventurous IPA but heck, it's solid. Seems like much less of an English IPA though, and more American.
M - Good carbonation with a light to medium body and a good bitter finish.
O/D - A solid IPA. Definately not English IMO. Pretty nice with the standard IPA characteristics done well. Very drinkable and woth a shot.

Thanks to Thirstybird for bringing this back from his honeymoon. 341ml bottle served in my Harpoon IPA glass. 0811 notched on the front label of bottle. Pours a translucent amber with a creamy, half inch, off-white head. Nose expresses light, toasted malts and a dull, earthy/citrusy hops profile. Taste is a bit earthy, some citrus peel, a faint metallic quality and a bit of caramel malt comes through. Mouthfeel is light-medium, with a prickly, almost gassy, carbonation and a bit of acidity that lightly stimulates the salivary glands. Overall, not a bad beer, but not really worth seeking out.

World's Largest Independent Ad Tech Company Reveals 500 Percent Growth in Mobile Business
NEW YORK and LONDON, June 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- From its second annual European Summit, AppNexus, the technology company that provides trading solutions and powers marketplaces for Internet advertising, today announced the significant strides it has made in mobile in 2014, including the evolution of its seminal partnership with Millennial Media and a new engagement with Shazam. In addition, the company revealed significant growth metrics in mobile ad volume and spend.
"AppNexus is a mobile company," said CEO Brian O'Kelley. "We have a long history in desktop and are still deeply committed to that medium, but mobile is where the industry is heading and we've placed a huge bet on that opportunity. Partnering with mobile leaders like Millennial Media and Shazam validates us as the clear frontrunner in programmatic mobile, and the incredible increase in mobile volume and ad spend on our platform are further proof points."
Today AppNexus is the gateway to the largest source of programmatic mobile inventory. Impression volume on AppNexus has grown from approximately three billion impressions a day a year ago, to more than 14 billion a day in the last month, a 400 percent increase.
Its mobile business has grown more than 500 percent in the last year, based on ad spend. The number of mobile-sized ads and campaigns targeted to mobile supply in the system has grown 10 times over in the last year, with 65,000 campaigns currently running through AppNexus. More than 1,000 new mobile ads are uploaded to the AppNexus platform every day. Overall, Magna Global reports that 68% of mobile display was traded programmatically and it is forecasted to rise to 88% by 2017 (Q3 2013 Magna Global study).
In order to deliver premium high-quality mobile inventory to buyers, AppNexus works with formidable supply partners including Millennial Media and Shazam. Since the launch in 2013 of the Millennial Media Exchange (MMX), a premiere mobile exchange powered by the AppNexus platform, more than 180 buyers in 40-plus countries are taking advantage of its premium inventory and high-value audiences. Millennial Media is also now the first -- and only -- mobile exchange in the AppNexus Deals Open Beta, which is designed to deliver premium marketplace capabilities to key buyers.
Mollie Spillman, EVP, Global Sales & Operations at Millennial Media said, "We are very optimistic about the growth opportunity of the programmatic mobile market in EMEA. Our company is making significant investments in the European market, where mobile spend has increased four-fold since the beginning of the year. Our market research shows that EMEA provides a massive opportunity for our two companies to unlock demand in the region at an automated scale that no one can provide in the market today."
Shazam, one of the world's most-downloaded apps and a mobile-first premium publisher, is now leveraging AppNexus's yield management and ad quality tools for monetization, brand protection and preventing channel conflict. Shazam is also buying through the AppNexus platform, using first and third-party data segments for targeting. In addition, Shazam's inventory is now available for purchase within the Millennial Media Exchange (MMX), giving buyers greater access to premium supply within MMX and enabling Shazam to develop new buy-side partnerships.
Miles Lewis, Senior Vice President, International Advertising Sales at Shazam, said, "AppNexus has given Shazam the flexibility to manage our existing preferred partnerships with its industry-leading inventory controls and seamless integration with data providers, as well as work with new buyers who want to take advantage of our premium supply."

"The deepest wisdom man can attain is to know that his destiny is to aid, to serve."
- Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel
Engage is a new initiative bringing together and empowering Jews in their 50s, 60s, and beyond to address the needs of the Jewish community
of New York City. With Engage, volunteers can use their life-long skill sets, expertise, passion, and leadership to address issues that they
care deeply about, including poverty, hunger, joblessness, and the needs of caregivers, isolated elderly, and children with special needs.
Volunteers will choose opportunities that fit their interests and availability and create opportunities of their own.
Participants will attend in regular gatherings that include discussion, reflection, and analysis, and provide an opportunity to learn about
related societal issues and teachings, and that will facilitate connections between the volunteering, learning, and overall life experiences.
"Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope,
and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls
of oppression and resistance."
- Robert F. Kennedy

A motorcycle club hosted a school supply giveaway Sunday hoping to encourage students and parents after weeks of recent violence.
"We pray that you will be a protective covering over them," said a participate of the event.
A community prayer for protection was a part of the back to school block party and give away at Battlefield Park Sunday afternoon. S.W.A.T., which stands for Sisters with a Throttle Motorcycle Club held the event.
There was face painting, food and fun. Allstate Insurance and Mississippi Motosteps provided the 125 back packs filled with items needed to start off the school year.
"It means a lot as far as youth empowerment and having the community involved because crime is way out of hand right now," said Melinda Casey, who supports the bike club S.W.A.T.
"There are some kids who are just discouraged about school because they don't have supplies. They don't have backpacks and we want to empower those kids with the tools they need to be successful because we know if they're successful, chances of them being violent is slim to none," added Keisha Varnell, a member of S.W.A.T.
This is the third year the bikers have held the school supply give away.

, a new authentic Italian BYOB restuarant Avenue of Two Rivers in Rumson, opened in June after about four months of planning (and the desire to be open for summer).
A small, intimate restaurant with dim lighting, this new eatery has the look and feel of a small country town in Italy. The owner, Francesco Panucci, grew up in a quaint country town like this on the west coast of Calabria in the south of Naples, called Spilinga. Some of the most robust and unique flavors come from small towns like this, where the food is often the kind you grow up on.
"You can say I have been working on this menu for the past ten years. Growing up in Italy, and then here in the U.S. in a very strict Italian environment, I was always exposed to true Italian cuisine, so my initial throught was to bring some of that authentic cuisine here to Rumson," Francesco explained. "My menu is composed mainly of dishes that I grew up on... ideas I got from my family, friends, and places I traveled throughout the Italian countryside. But the root of it all is the influence I got from my mom, Giorgia, and where I grew up back home."
Francesco already knew the area well, and chose the location of the restaurant very carefully. He wanted to find a place with a "neighborhood" feel, to coordianate with the initial concept he was bringing to the restaurant. He wanted nothing more than to bring that feeling of "home" to his guests to improve their dining experience, and that he did, with the cozy set up of Ristorante Giorgia. With limited tables, it feels as if you have just come home and you going to enjoy the comfort of your favorite home cooking, providing an intimate dining experience for all.
"I always wanted to open my own restaurant," Francesco shared. "I have been involved in other ventures with partners in the past, but the ultimate goal was always to have my own, where I could implement my own ideas and bring a little of my Italy here."
When asked what was his favorite dish, he explained that it is hard to pick, as he appreciates all of his dishes in their own way. "I guess if you asked me what I'm in the mood for today, I would start with some mussels, followed by a first course of Bucatini Amatrici, which is one of the top two sauces I enjoy the most, and the Caciucco as my third course, a wonderful seafood stew," Francesco said.
Everything on the menu is arguably popular, but the owner has cited the Tagliatelle with shrimp and wild mushrooms, and the Penne with sausage and nduja are considerably two favorite pasta dishes. If you like calamari, try the Calamaretti alla Sorrentina (it's NOT fried!)
Ristorante Giorgia boasts a small variety of seasonal specials as well, change and varying according to, naturally, what is in season.
When I visited the new restaurant, I went with a friend and we decided to split two appetizers and one entree to get a feel for the overall menu. We split the Antipasto Calabrese with Prosciutto di Parma, capicollo, mortadella, pecorino, provolone, giadiniera and roasted peppers, and the Insalata di rucola con pere, grana e noci, an arugula salad with pears, walnuts, Grana Padano, and balsamic vinaigrette.
Both of these starters went well with the fresh bread and oil for the table, as well as the Gnocchi di spinachi con salsa di taleggio, homemade spinach gnocchi with a light cream sauce, scallions, white pepper and taleggio cheese. The taste was so fresh, you could actaully taste the spinach in the gnocchi -- it was fabulous!
My experience at Ristorante Giorgia was exactly how Francesco wanted to present it -- top notch service in a small, cozy, "at home" restaurant, where you feel you are going to "Nonna's" house as opposed to a fine dining restaurant. Everything is made to order. There's nothing better than that. I will definitely go back, and I suggest you try something new if you haven't been there already. If you are familiar with Rumson, it is right across the street from David Burke's Fromagerie, and you can smell the garlic from down the street!
To make a reservation, call (732) 741-3880.

President Bush And World Leaders Build Habitat for Humanity Houses
AMERICUS, Ga. - August 8, 2001 - President George W. Bush and his wife, Laura Bush, helped the Evans family build their own modest, affordable home today, Wednesday, Aug. 8, in Waco, Texas, joining heads of state around the globe participating in Habitat for Humanity International's World Leaders Build event.
It was the second time in two months that President Bush volunteered on a crew with Habitat for Humanity International (HFHI). Joining President Bush were federal housing secretary Mel Martinez; Texas Gov. Rick Perry; David Williams, HFHI executive vice president and chief operating officer; Waco Habitat for Humanity Executive Director John Alexander; and local volunteers.
"President and Mrs. Bush worked hard this morning," Williams said. "Together, they showed the power of compassion and a true spirit of volunteerism. With volunteers like them, we can eliminate poverty housing worldwide." At the same time the president was working up a sweat in Waco, White House staff members were testing their carpentry skills at a Habitat build site in Northern Virginia.
"Neighbors helping neighbors. No president should ever take that value for granted," Bush said. "That's why Laura and I are here." said Martinez: "Habitat for Humanity is doing more and more to help people live the American dream."
This week in South Korea, HFHI founder and president Millard Fuller, former President Jimmy Carter, South Korean President Kim Dae Jung and 9,000 volunteers are building 136 homes. The World Leaders Build program has boosted the construction of 1,175 houses globally. President Bush is one of more than 29 current and former heads of state.
When asked how she felt , Gladys Evans said, "I was so excited when I found out he was coming to work on my home. It's a wonderful thing."
Celebrating its 25th Anniversary year, Habitat for Humanity International is an ecumenical Christian ministry dedicated to eliminating poverty housing around the world. Founded by Millard Fuller, along with his wife, Linda, Habitat for Humanity International and its affiliates in more than 2,000 communities in 79 nations have built and sold more than 110,000 homes to partner families at no-profit, with zero-interest mortgages.

Correllus Still Top 100 Player in Division I by Top Drawer Soccer
FORT MYERS, Fla. – FGCU women's soccer senior KC Correllus (Merritt Island, Fla./Satellite HS/Florida State), has finished the regular season on TopDrawerSoccer.com's Women's National Division I Top 100 Players list updated on Wednesday.
Correllus started the year at No. 98 on the list and finished No. 100 becoming the only player from the Atlantic Sun Conference represented. The rankings include student-athletes that are seniors, juniors and sophomores, and have been updated on a weekly basis. Correllus was one of 25 players from a non-BCS school that made the list.
Correllus helped FGCU capture its second straight A-Sun regular season crown, headlining a defense that only allowed one goal in conference and posted a league-best 11 shutouts, including a streak of nine straight from Sept. 18-Oct. 21. Corellus was named A-Sun Defensive Player of the Week on Oct. 17.
A product of Merritt Island, Fla., Correllus has been instrumental in leading an FGCU defense that has held all A-Sun opponents to 10 shots or less and ranks first in goals against average (0.70).
The Green and Blue finished the regular season with a 12-4-2 record and a 7-1-1 mark in the A-Sun. The Eagles are going into their first-ever post-season tournament as the No. 1 seed and will host the A-Sun semifinals and championship game at the FGCU Soccer Complex.
FGCU will play the winner of the quarterfinal game between fifth-seeded North Florida at fourth-seeded Belmont. The Eagles will host the winner at 7 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 4, while the 4 p.m. game will feature ETSU vs. the winner of sixth-seeded Mercer at third-seeded Jacksonville.

Editor's note: Piedmont Patch does not endorse local candidates or take a position on local ballot measures. We are committed to providing a forum where viewers can express a variety of opinions through letters to the editor and comments on articles.
Measure A, the proposed sewer tax surcharge on the Feb. 7 Piedmont Municipal Election ballot, continues to generate a lively debate among local voters. Controversy has surrounded both the details of the measure itself and coverage in the local press.
Today we've gathered together some new links, letters and articles on both issues.
The measure would impose a 50 percent surcharge on the existing sewer parcel tax for 10 years to fund replacement of about 40 percent of the city's aging sanitary sewer system. (Roughly 60 percent of the system has already been replaced.)
Passage would cost Piedmont home owners somewhere between $200 and $500 a year.
New on Piedmont Patch today (Jan. 30):
The Measure A 'Counterpoints' and a Bit of Controversy. A memo from City of Piedmont staff that has caused a stir; includes the complete memo and comments from City Manager Geoffrey Grote.

In addition to the discounts, you can enter to win some pretty cool prizes, including a rain barrel (complete with optional delivery and installation by the fabulous Pete Kinne!) a new coffee pot (donated by local roaster Partridge and Quigley), a Chef's Dinner for two prepared by one of our amazing kitchens, or an assortment of gift baskets that feature garden, kitchen, and body care items.
Local vendors will be on site sampling their products and all local items will be on sale for an additional 10%off. Our deli staff will be grilling out, and staff will be sporting some excellent costumes!
Stop in and celebrate with us! See you there.
