Avery says they were unable to agree on a vision for the future. Apparently, Detroit wasn't ready to commit to a four year deal.
Avery Johnson doesn't think he should have to interview.
"I've said all along [that] at the right time and in the right situation, I will coach again," Johnson said Friday. "I am enjoying my time at ESPN and with my family. I think an awful lot of [Grizzlies owner] Michael Heisley and [general manager] Chris Wallace. I wish the Grizzlies the very best."
A big thanks to Mark Followill for agreeing to take some time and answer a few questions. Starting off in your area, any changes for the broadcast this season? Am I correct in saying that Laura...
Well, the Mavs lost to Detroit last night. Fortunately it was just a preseason game, but don't tell that to Detroit. They not only played their starters against the Mavs third string for most of...
Let's get this out right away: The Mavs are much better than just about anyone is giving them credit for. While they aren't a lock to win the Southwest Division, let alone the Western Conference,...
While it is trendy to bash Avery Johnson, there is no doubt he is an excellent young coach. Johnson definitely has weaknesses, however, and, looking ahead, it is important to identify Avery's...
"New York Knicks president Donnie Walsh is racking up the mileage. On Tuesday, he's scheduled to fly to Houston in team owner Jim Dolan's private plane to meet with Avery Johnson regarding the Knicks' coaching vacancy."
It was December 6, 2007, and for a Mavs team reeling from its worst stretch of the season it was just one more blow. At home against the Denver Nuggets the Mavs were sliced and diced by Allan...

London ranked 38th in world quality of living survey
London has been ranked 38th in a survey to find the city with the best quality of living. The capital dropped down the world rankings - way behind cities such as Vienna and Zurich - because of the capital's air pollution and traffic congestion.
The Quality of Living Survey was carried out by consultancy firm Mercer.
– Ellyn Karetnick, UK Head of Mercer's International Mobility Practice
London has world class recreational facilities and expatriates living here are also spoilt for choice on consumer goods.
The city's excellent infrastructure and wide selection of education facilities available to expatriate workers and their families, places it firmly in the top 50 for quality of living worldwide.
Lower ratings on factors such as air pollution and traffic congestion keep London from reaching the top 10.
Here are the top 5, and bottom 5 cities in Europe.
- 1) Vienna, Austria
- 2) Zurich, Switzerland
- 3) Munich, Germany
- 4) Dusseldorf, Germany
- 5) Frankfurt, Germany
– Slagin Parakatil, Senior Researcher at Mercer
European cities enjoy a high overall quality of living compared to those in other regions. Healthcare, infrastructure, and recreational facilities are generally of a very high standard. Political stability and relatively low crime levels enable expatriates to feel safe and secure in most locations. The region has seen few changes in living standards over the last year.
- 1) Tbilisi, Georgia
- 2) Minsk, Belarus
- 3) Yerevan, Armenia
- 4) Tirana, Albania
- St Petersburg, Russia
– Mercer Consultancy
Ranking 191 overall, Tbilisi, Georgia, is the lowest-ranking city in Europe. It continues to improve in its quality of living, mainly due to a growing availability of consumer goods, improving internal stability, and developing infrastructure.
Elsewhere in the world:
- NORTH AMERICA: Vancouver ranked top, while Mexico City in Mexico came last
- ASIA: Singapore ranked top, while Dushanbe in Tajikistan came last
- AUSTRALASIA: Auckland in New Zealand came top
- MIDDLE EAST: Dubai ranked top, Baghdad in Iraq came last

One of the most vivid and realised characters of recent fiction, Willie Dunne is the innocent hero of Sebastian Barry's highly acclaimed novel. Leaving Dublin to fight for the Allied cause as a member of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers, he finds himself caught between the war playing out on foreign fields and that festering at home, waiting to erupt with the Easter Rising. Profoundly moving, intimate and epic, "A Long Long Way" charts and evokes a terrible coming of age, one too often written out of history.
More books by Sebastian Barry
For one long week, I travelled in a dark cloud, so moved was I by this book. This is the story of pint-sized Willie Dunne, a young Irishman who joins the Royal Dublin Fusiliers and goes off to fight in World War One. Caught in that great ash-heap of history, he also finds himself caught in the crossfire of the Easter Rising at home. Barry recreates a forgotten corner of Irish history, and along the way, crafts one of the great Great War novels. This is a lament for those caught in that "heaving swell of history". Barry's writing luminesces with the most intense beauty, but it is all the more remarkable because his writing does not flinch from the cruelty of the world. The book's poetry is as harrowingly beautiful as any of the poetry from the Great War.

It makes sense. We have literally nothing to talk about in the gaping chasm between the end of the season and the beginning of training camp. Sure, there is the occasional contract dispute or police drama, but NFL off-season is a bleak, empty, unhappy place. Just as fan enthusiasm starts to drift into darkness, media outlets put it on life support. They play make believe. They mock drafts.
The 8 Reasons I'll Never Read Another Mock Draft
1. Mock drafts are to football fans what Cosmo sex tips articles are to the insecure. Always wrong, always a rehash of the last version with a couple new twists, and almost always irresistible. They briefly satisfy our mild curiosities. They are the tastiest clickbait morsels of the entire offseason. "Who could MY team end up with? Heck, I'll give it a look..."
2. They aren't satisfying, even when they're brilliant. No matter the degree to which you agree with a mock, you're always left right where you were before you read it: in wait and see mode. I've never read a mock draft and said "Yes! Now we're in good shape for the playoffs." Usually its "I hope that happens" or "I pray that doesn't" or "Not even Al Davis would touch that guy." They aren't real news or satisfying entertainment. Mock drafts are like chewing gum when you're starving.
3. They're wrong. Always. Every one of them. Drafts have over 220 picks in them, and most mock drafts come flying off the rails and bursting apart at the seams at around pick 5. Worst of all, mockers will point to one or two guys they nailed and blow their chests way out in triumph. Holy cow you mocked a DE going to Atlanta in the second round! Move over, Jerry Jones - we've got a new football executive powerhouse on the loose.
4. You don't know the trades. And there will be dozens. Has there ever been a bigger waste of time than trying to predict the order of 200 players getting drafted when THE ORDER CHANGES 50 TIMES ON THE DAY OF THE DRAFT? All those pointless, innumerable hours you spent poring over prospects and draft needs go disappearing into smoke because an impulsive owner really liked a tight end. Poof.
5. Did I mention they are wrong? 2013 1st Round Mock Draft Results for the Denver Broncos: Tank Carradine (Walter Football), WRONG. Jonathan Banks (Bleacher Report), WRONG-O. Alec Ogletree (SBNation), WRONG AGAIN. Datone Jones (Peter King, SI) WAIT FOR IT.....YEP, STILL WRONG. I'm going to save myself the googling for the other 99.9% of drafts and cut to the chase. Mock drafts are always wrong.
6. They aren't fun. Shut up, no they aren't.
7. The real draft is fun. Shut up, yes it is. All 6 days of coverage or whatever it's stretched out to nowadays.
8. I mostly wrote this because writing a mock draft seemed like too much work. My goodness do you guys have a lot of time on your hands. Watching tape! Analyzing scheme fit! Investigating character! I guarantee I won't have even heard of our 2nd round pick this year. But then I'll research him and watch his tape and I'll be pretty certain he's my new favorite player. And there won't be a second wasted on guys that don't end up on our team! How efficient is that?
Really, I don't hate you or your mock draft. But that's because I didn't read it. I'm sure you outlined some really excellent guys for us to draft, though. And you know what? You go ahead and put those guys on the Broncos in Madden. You earned it, buddy.
I hope you've enjoyed today's Mock Article.
Is it Thursday yet?

Vietnam and Iraq: Looking Back and Looking Ahead
"You cannot win against an insurgency that springs from the population," said Jack Valenti, former special assistant to President Lyndon B. Johnson. "There's never been an insurgency that doesn't prevail against a mighty power."
"How much reform can you do," former secretary of state Henry A. Kissinger wondered later, "simultaneously with fighting a war?"
The banner on their dais read "Vietnam and the Presidency" -- ostensibly, the subject of a high-powered conference that brought historians and former policymakers to the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library for two days ending Saturday.
But, as the speakers talked about anti-American insurgents and faulty U.S. intelligence and the search for an honorable way out in Southeast Asia, nearly all found bitter parallels to the current conflict in Iraq.
"It appears to me we haven't learned very much," said Alexander M. Haig Jr., Kissinger's assistant in the Nixon White House and secretary of state under President Ronald Reagan.
The conference's stated subject -- Vietnam's history -- was captivating and wrenching enough on its own. Timothy Naftali, director of the Presidential Recordings Program at the University of Virginia, played recordings of Johnson's conversations, including one from 1965 where he asked Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara how the war was going.
"The current battle is going very well," McNamara said, and then continued with a sentence whose Catch-22 logic made the audience laugh. "The problem is that it's not producing the conditions that will almost certainly win for us."

As if our property tax burden isnĺt great enough, the schools have added an additional cost. Theyĺre now demanding that each student purchase their own supplies for school such as pencils, notebooks, etc. This is costing approximately $100 per student and itĺs passed onto the parents and grandparents who already incur a high school tax. The schools actually have the nerve to specify the brands of products to purchase. Is there no end to this?
For the Montgomery County Commissioners, district attorneyĺs office and the attorney general of Pennsylvania, upon taking office you took an oath to uphold the state and federal laws of the U.S. Now the head of the Register of Wills is giving out marriage licenses illegally to gay couples. This violates state law. It is your job to uphold the law, not make exceptions of a law as it stands. Now Montgomery County is being sued and the taxpayers will pay.
For the person who read things into my Sound Off concerning Bruce Hanesĺ crime and his willful defiance to the laws of Pennsylvania, there was no mention of being straight, crooked or sideways. It was and still is a matter of justice and someone stepping up to the plate and deal with Mr. Hanes.

I havenĺt seen any other replies to this. You did miss the memo about the Limerick sirens.

text: Best Pitcher Drink Recipes 8 Pitcher-Perfect Cocktails by Emily Bibb 8/31/13 20 Reactions 96 Shares Print 68 8 10 3 7 Cocktails taste better when they're enjoyed with good company, but rather than craft a bunch of different beverages, make pitcher drinks like sangria and punch. All you have to do is make a large batch, and everyone gets a glass faster. Hooray! Here are a few of our favorites, just in time for that pool party, BBQ, or whatever else you have planned for the holiday weekend. Jalapeño Margarita What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Not for the faint of heart, this margarita recipe has the addition of jalapeño, which adds a spicy kick to the classic tequila drink. 1 / 8 Redhead in Bed What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Strawberries are the star ingredient in this refreshing libation. The festive color and large batch (it serves 10) make it perfect for a party. 2 / 8 Red Sangria What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This red sangria is easy to make in advance and calls for ingredients you likely already have on hand; it also accommodates anywhere from one to 100! 3 / 8 Strawberry Margaritas What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 You'd be surprised at how sweet the fresh strawberries make this margarita recipe. It's a potent crowd-pleaser, sure to get the conversation flowing. 4 / 8 Salty Dog What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Ultrasimple (it only requires grapefruit juice, vodka, and salt!) and mouthwatering, a salty dog is a concoction that might quickly become your go-to party drink. 6 / 8 Classic Mai Tai What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This classic mai tai recipe packs a tropical punch and can be easily adjusted to serve a large group; a solid choice for toasting to a celebration! 6 / 8 Easy White Sangria What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Sangria isn't just for red wines! Just like its red counterpart, this recipe takes advantage of robust orange and apple flavors and capitalizes on fleshy Summer fruits, like peaches and mangoes. 7 / 8 Classic Mojito What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The ingredients in a classic mojito are easy to come by: rum, sugar, lime juice, sparkling water, and mint. The result is absolutely sublime and can easily be added to a big pitcher! 8 / 8 68 8 10 3 7 Back to Homepage Comments Read More Party PlanningHappy HourRecipesDrinksCocktails Cocktails Don't Waste Calories at a Bar: 5 Low-Calorie Cocktails to Order at Happy Hour 5 hours ago It Doesn't Get Classier Than This Tuxedo Cocktail 3 days ago The Art of the Cocktail Garnish 3 days ago Make These 3 Classic Cocktails Even Better With Bubbles 3 days ago We'll Have a Long Island . . .

Indiana freshman forward Troy Williams to miss time with hand injury
Sep 23, 2013, 6:00 PM EDT
Indiana freshman forward Troy Williams will miss several weeks of action after injuring his right hand during a workout, according to a report from the Indiana Athletics website.
The 6'7″ forward spent his senior season at Oak Hill Academy and was expected to push for minutes this season at Indiana with the frontcourt losses of Cody Zeller and Christian Watford but this setback might cause Williams to lose some of his offseason momentum heading into his first season in Bloomington.
"Troy has been rising in all areas of his game," Indiana Coach Tom Crean said in the release. "While this is a setback, it is a minor one in the scheme of things."
Crean is correct, this is only a minor setback for Williams — and if he's only out for a few weeks he won't even miss any regular season games — but it certainly hurts that Williams will miss what would have been his first collegiate practices as he adjusts to the rigors of major college basketball and the Big Ten.

Kayaking in Sant Pol
This afternoon we head past the foot of the Pyrenees to Sant Pol to do some kayaking and snorkelling. We wind around the bay on our kayaks and take in the sights. The water is a crystal clear green. Of course we rock each other's boats and splash about along the way. I don't see very many fish around however. But definately a fun outdoorsy afternoon.
A Lot of Catching Up To Do
It's all about the bike.... So why would you want to sit inside and write a blog when it is beautiful weather every day and you could be out riding? Exactly my point. Last year I wrote a fairly lengthy (and some would say too lengthy) blog about the wonderful adventure that Shelly (my lovely wife) and I had visiting Girona. This year Shelly was unable to join me so that has left me with lot's of time to ride the bike.

Y/Project Shows Shine and Shadow for Men in Paris-------
"Y/Project has always been sophisticated and rough," says Glenn Martens, the Belgian designer who stepped in last September after the passing of Y/Project's visionary founder, Yohan Serfaty. For the Spring/Summer 2015 men's collection, Martens established a new balance between these two poles by subjecting natural fabrics like linen to a battery of technical surface treatments. Bonded, waxed, plasticized, and oiled, Y/Project's cleaned-up Perfectos and knee pants in linen and cotton worn with translucent biker racing tops shed light on the brand's signature gritty, urban vibe.
"I liked the idea of giving these cool, summer fabrics some shine, but when you look closely at the surface you can see the cracks," says Martens, who dedicated this collection to kids of the eighties and nineties. "Everyone I work with at Y is young, but even if we finish at 11 p.m. on Friday, we still want to go out," he says. There's light and shadow play in Y's reflective parkas and trousers that seem to have been turned inside out to show off seaming construction. Martens lightened up the house leathers in airy, wrinkled finishes for shirt jackets and dipped into the Y archives for metal clips, inspired by riding clothes, to attach patch pockets to leather jackets and pants.
While colors are mostly dark, Martens injected light with naturally iridescent lime yellow-green for the biker tailoring and one spacey print: a photo of draping, recolored in a polychrome spectrum in silk satin wavy stripes and a jellyfish-like splash across slinky dark tees. The new Y has a feminine side as well. Martens slipped pieces of his women's pre-collection into this show: clingy hourglass silk jerseys for sultry street angels and suits with elegant, deeply pleated, wide-belted raw silk three-quarter coats.
Glenn Martens Makes It Work At Y/Project-------
Since September, Belgian designer Glenn Martens has been carrying on in the spirit of Y/Project founder Yohan Serfaty, who passed away last April. But whereas Serfaty specialized in a mostly leather menswear line, Martens has, in addition to designing menswear, been spinning out his late mentor's style into a full-fledged women's collection. On the docket for Fall: easy, urban pieces such as elegant but streetwise leather coats made of wide, vertical sweeping panels that sway with its wearer's gait (or, as Martens put it, "They explode when you walk."). Serfaty was a strong tailor, and that influence is evident in sharp, menswear-inspired suits with raw cut finishes; oversize blazers; jackets with clever zip work; and wide, comfortable silk pants. Elsewhere, there were thoughtful multifunctional pieces such as a top run through with vertical drawstrings that can do double duty as a dress. "I love that duality. When you're running around and your day is never-ending, you have to be prepared," the designer said. "You can make it work to your body." Judging by the early response (the line has already been picked up by a bevy of retailers, including ØDD in New York), it won't be long before bodies stateside will be working that vibe.

XING Help Center
Here you'll find answers to your questions, and information about XING features. You can also contact the XING Support team (available in English and German) if you need any other assistance.
By the way, we've published some help videos that may be of use to you: Go to videos
How does the search feature work?
The Search box in the upper right-hand corner of every XING page is a keyword search. All terms you enter there will be compared with every profile field and matches will be returned. The profiles returned are precisely those profiles which contain the terms you searched for. If you're looking for a specific phrase (more than one word), you should enclose the phrase in quotation marks (e.g., "key account manager"). That way you'll only see profiles which contain precisely this phrase.
Using the Advanced Search feature at "Search", you can search in specific categories, such as name, Current company, City (business), Person wants and Person has. You can also combine a search for specific keywords with a search in specific categories.
The Advanced Search feature also allows you to limit or expand the range of your search. For example, you can search the entire XING page, or you can limit results to your language, or even just search the contacts of your contacts. As with the Search box, the Advanced Search scans for all terms you enter. In effect, this means that if you enter four search criteria, and a profile contains only three of these four, it will not appear in the search results. There are several ways to modify your search criteria:
Searching with quotation marks: Use quotation marks to find a precise combination of words. For example, "Key Account Manager" will only return profiles that contain these three words in exactly this order.
Searching with OR: If you enter "OR" (in capital letters) between two search terms, you'll receive all profiles that contain at least one of the words. At top, those profiles that match both terms will be displayed. If OR is not entered between the terms, only profiles matching both of the terms will be displayed.
Searching with a minus: Let's say you would like to find all members named Jones who work in Boston, but wish to exclude those who include 'Internet' in the Industry field. Simply type "-Internet" (without quotes) in the Industry field. A minus search is only possible if you enter at least one additional search parameter.
Search by postcode area: Simply enter the first digit of the postcode area you're looking for, followed by an asterisk (*) and the search will return all members who have entered a business address within this postcode area.
Search by word beginnings: You can search by the beginnings of words in all fields except the keyword search. Simply enter the first three letters of the term you're looking for, followed by an asterisk (*).
The search results are sorted by relevancy, and are also influenced by the quality of a profile. This means that if all other factors are the same, a complete, comprehensive profile will appear higher in the results list than a less complete or comprehensive profile.

Went to Publix's last week and got 8 10 pks pens for free. plus got 21 boxes of 24pk crayons for about $3.00 Used Publix sale buy one 10pak get one free pens used 10 $1.00 paper-mate target coupons FREE Crayons 24of 3/$1.00 used 7 target crayons coupons .55 off 3.
Walmart has these $.94 same count to score some overage!!! I found then back in the office supplies not with the rest of the back to school supplies! Good luck!! And Walmart accepts Target coupons!!
In the target in downtown jersey city they are $1.27 still not a bad deal. I paid $1.68 for 60 pens
I went to pick up 3 packs of Papermate pens at Target yesterday and while a cashier was scanning my coupons another cashier came up and tried to help my cashier. Then he got to the Papermate coupons and said to me with an attitude, "You can ONLY get ONE, here [pointing to the fine print] it says one coupon per guest and you have 3 coupons for 3 packs of pens." I was so distracted by my son and told him, I didn't notice the fine print, when I should have really said, "HELLO! PER GUEST: MY HUSBAND, MY SON, AND MYSELF! DUH!" I was able to use the coupon though since the supervisor came and took over the transaction. She did forget to scan 1 of my coupon and took the coupon so I will have to get that fixed later on today. Btw, if you don't like the pack of free Papermate pens, there's also the Papermate pens that comes with 2 for $1.69 and after the coupon it comes out to $0.69 which is still a great deal because oh my oh my, the pen works so well.
There's a coupon for the Paperrmate InkJoy pens ( http://hunt4freebies.com/coupons/1-50-off-papermate-inkjoy-pens-printable-coupon/ )…should be able to use both the Target coupon and this one, right?
ive never had a problem with my target but today i tried to use two coupons and they wouldnt let me. i know it says one per guest but usually my target lets me use my coupons as long as there is just 4. today i was told i couldnt do it and wasnt told why.
This coupon works in Ocoee, Florida at publix. 4 packs of free pens. I got the nicer ones with the handgrips because I know they'll work.
Sooo…. My computer must be not working quite right but it's allowing me to print an unlimited number of these coupons! Awesome!
Hehe…I beat you to it! Went last week and scored free pens!!! Awesome!
I do not faind the coupon…………….I found it
My stinkyy PC froze up and now it won't let me print any of these. MANNNN I will try the library in the morning. Luckily I live in a small town and no one has started hitting our yet. but the bad news is they are refusing to install the coupon print on all PC's on one PC will have the coupon print installed. Also today at Walmart the manager and the cashier took my stack of printed coupons and claimed that it was against the law for me to print coupons at the library. What is that about???
I would definitely call Walmart customer service main number and complain. It doesn't matter where you print them!!!
Im having trouble printing target coupons they come out with a barcode but no numbers what should these coupons look like?
I picked these up @ Publix & used the 1 coupon to cover 2 packs…I was lucky enough to print 2 from each of my computers…With 6 kids, this will really help with school supplies….
Oh man, I printed these twice. The second print had no coupon and now I can't print anymore….oh well.
Woo hoo! I'm so going there. One can never have too many pens.
If a pen won't write take a lighter and just heat up the little metal part of the pen real quick and it should write again just fine. Just be careful not to melt the plastic part or burn yourself.
I did not know that! You learn something new every day : )
I can vouch for this- as an artist we do this with our fountain pens to make the ink run better.
office max has them for 10 cents in KC
I am going to Target anyway so I will use the coupon, then get the heck out of there. It is always soooooooo hot in all of the Targets.
These weren't on sale at my Target. They were 1.27 for each pack today, I still bought two packs for $.27 cents each though. I'm using them for my wedding to have with the guest book. Figured out of 20 pens, some of them have to work haha.
Hope you have better luck then I have. None of the ones I ever owned worked.
All of the ones I got last year have worked just fine. I got 3 packs today.
I use them as teacher gifts also, tie a bow around it and attach a cute note, they cant have too many pens
My mother works for the sate of CA. And because of the money problem they're having they aren't stocking my mom's work place with even the basic office supplies, so this will be a big help. Free pens for her to take to work! =)
My Publix also had the 2 for $1.00. I got four packages. Great teacher donation. Even if they are cheap and arent always reliable, they're FREE. Nothing out of my pocket and the teachers are SO appreciative!!!
I agree with Laudan Dehghanpisheh Kirk, I got a bunch of free pens at target last year and don't use them. Even if it's free, if they don't work well, they end up just being clutter.
They make great back to school donations for children. Since the kids will use them right away, they'll get the maximum benefit out of them.
Is it better to get it at publix ?
Its a target coupon not a publix coupon
You can use target coupons at publix.
not at Publics in Lakeland, FL
That sucks! My mom uses Target Qs at Publix in Miami… Isn't it in the coupon policy that you can? I'm not familiar with Publix's coupon policy because I don't have one here in Louisiana…
I use Target coupons at Publix all the time in Lakeland. It depends on the store. Highlands, Miriam, & Oak Bridge for sure. Bartow & Auburndale definitely do not accept Target. But there are plenty of Publix stores in Lakeland that do accept Target. Just call and ask, or pick up their coupons accepted flyer at the front of the store where their ads are.
FYI- These pens are junk. I bought these last year and have thrown most of them away. I will use the coupon for a better product. Maybe others have had a good experience?
They're okay. They get the job done and for free.
I agree. I have thrown all away. What is the point if they never work. Too bad.
They had a few different varieties to choose from…
1.29 at my target…still ok
Can you use a target coupon at walmart?
No unless it shows a specific price not just a $ amount off.
Walmart takes Target coupons for me all the time!
YES !!!!! you can use competitor coupons at walmart and EVERY walmart has to accept them it's a corporate coupon policy not a store by store policy. They go by what the coupon says if only 1 per house hold then they will only allow the directions. (They might not except % off coupons) Im sorry I not 100% and I'm on my phone not at home. If they tell you no show them the corporate policy…. and alot of manager/cashier/store employee don't know all the policies so I carry a copy of every store policy in my coupon binder and sometimes I have to show them, they cant make up there own and if they don't know they will then.. I've had some even thank me and others get mad but hey every $ counts, so know your policies and educate if needed with a smile of course (never rudely) !!!!
no they do not i work for walmart and we do not accept coupons from other stores for dollar amounts off only if it is a printed price we will match i in order to use a coupon it must be a manufacture coupon
This is directly from their coupon policy. We accept competitor's coupon:
A specific item for a specified price, for example, $2.99Buy one, get one free (BOGO) coupons for items with a specified priceHave a valid expiration dateAre acceptable in black and white
The Paper Mate pens are on sale at Publix this week 2 for a $1.00, with this coupon you get .50 cents overage!!!!
Love that, thanks!!!

St. Jude Medical Inc. (STJ) has agreed to invest $40 million in a privately held medical device company that developed a new pain management therapy, gaining the right to exclusively distribute the system and potentially acquire the company.
The Menlo Park, Calif.-based Spinal Modulation Inc. has developed a type of neuromodulation therapy that provides a new pain management option for patients with chronic, intractable pain. The Axium Neurostimulator System works through stimulation of the dorsal root ganglion, which are small structures that contain nerve fibers, which carry signals to the brain.
The agreement gives St. Jude an exclusive option to distribute the Axium system in international markets where it is approved for sale. St. Jude Medical will also have the exclusive option to acquire the company for up to $300 million plus certain revenue-based milestones following U.S. commercialization of the system.
The Axium system received European CE Mark approval in November 2011 for the management of chronic, intractable pain. Spinal Modulation has received an investigational device exemption from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and expects beginning enrollment in the second half of this year.
Last month, St. Jude reported first-quarter earnings rose 5.2% as lower costs offset weaker sales, while the medical-device maker's core heart-rhythm-management business continued to weaken.
Shares rose 1.4% to $43.84 in recent trading. The stock is up 25% over the past six months.
