My Turn by John Williams
In every corner of our communities, leaders make an impact on the lives of our youth. In their own way, civic leaders, educators, and non-profit groups provide opportunities that enrich the lives of young people.
However, many of those resources can be wasted or misguided — even fail — if we do not have the most critical stakeholder at the table: young people.
If we wish to enlist the voices and passion of youth, engaging them in the initiatives so critical to our future, then we must demonstrate trust through shared leadership.
There is a new initiative in the West Valley embracing the shared leadership model. The newly formed West Valley Youth Leadership Council is seeking young energy and talent to plug into the planning, building and change that is defining our dynamic region.
Shared leadership like the council proves that a community truly values its youth. By trusting young people enough to give them a share of leadership now, they can develop a lifetime of commitment to civic engagement. Then, we will realize the benefits of focused, trained, and enthusiastic community leaders for the next generation.
Shared leadership requires collaboration, respect, vision and perseverance to initiate change and growth. Shared leadership creates an authentic relationship between the adult and young communities. It is the cornerstone to open communication and teamwork.
The recent first meeting of the leadership council at Arizona State University West was charged with energy and enthusiasm. Students from around the West Valley discussed fresh ideas that, if nurtured and allowed to grow, will have a positive impact on the region.
The West Valley, like our young people, is just now realizing its own endless possibilities. Its success rides on the vision and leadership of today and tomorrow. To ensure a prosperous future, we need our youth to lead. We need them to be filled with the confidence, integrity, assertiveness and vision.
The West Valley Youth Leadership Council will empower such young leaders in three areas: character, community and communication.
Great leaders inspire through strength of character. We will focus on integrity, honesty, vision, caring, confidence, responsibility, equity and loyalty.
When we think of great communities, we think of places that have their own identities and engaged citizens. Through the youth council, young people will start addressing big community issues. Along the way, I believe they will learn that "community" is not limited to a neighborhoods or schools; community is really how we choose to define it.
Effective communication brings everything together. Whether debating in small groups or speaking to large audiences, leaders need to articulate their goals persuasively and honestly. The council aims to give young people that opportunity.
Are you interested in making change happen, meeting other enthusiastic people and developing a vision for our community's future? Join our leadership team at the next meeting at 8 a.m. Dec. 15 in Surprise City Hall. To apply or learn more, e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
John Williams is the vice mayor of Surprise and a West Valley Youth Leadership Council ambassador.

Democracy Now! stories, posts and pages that relate to Arabs and Muslims in America
The Associated Press has revealed the New York City Police Department monitored Muslim college students at schools throughout the Northeast, including Yale University and the University of Pennsylvania. In one case, the NYPD sent an undercover agent on a whitewater rafting trip in upstate New York, where he recorded students' names and noted in police intelligence files how many times they prayed. We speak to one of the students on the...Feb 21, 2012 | Story
Mitt Romney claimed victory in Tuesday's Republican primaries, winning Arizona by a wide margin, but only narrowly edging out Rick Santorum in his native state of Michigan. Against the backdrop of a struggling economy, the Michigan primary foreshadowed the challenges Republicans will face when they confront Obama in the fall. Michigan's economic woes preceded the rest of the country's downturn, and its current 9.3 percent...Feb 29, 2012 | Story
We speak with Matt Apuzzo, co-author of the Associated Press series that revealed the New York City Police Department has extensively spied on Muslim Americans not only in the tri-city area, but throughout the eastern United States. The series won the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting. Beginning last August, the AP detailed how the NYPD established a vast operation to monitor Muslim neighborhoods after the 9/11 attacks. Hundreds...Apr 17, 2012 | Story
A three-month review by New Jersey's attorney general has concluded the New York City Police Department did not violate state laws when they conducted extensive surveillance of Muslim communities with help from the CIA. The review's finding means Muslims will have no recourse to state law to prevent the NYPD from monitoring and cataloging their daily life. The decision has angered Muslim groups who were seeking an end to the...May 25, 2012 | Story
Eight American Muslims from New Jersey have filed a federal lawsuit calling on the New York City Police Department to stop its surveillance and intelligence-gathering program that targets Muslim and Arab communities. Under the controversial program, New York City police officers monitored the daily life of Muslims in the tri-city area and across the Northeast — including where people ate, prayed and even where they got their hair cut. We...Jun 07, 2012 | Story
After years of spying on Muslim neighborhoods, infiltrating groups and eavesdropping on conversations across the northeastern United States, the New York City Police Department has admitted its secret Demographics Unit failed to yield a single terrorism investigation or even a single lead.

Erythrina Mulungu Bark Herb 1 oz. Powder and 50 similar items
Item Details
More details about this item
Mulungu Powdered Bark
(Erythrina mulungu)
Mrythrina Mulungu is a medicinal tree native to Brazil whose bark is used primarily for sedation and anti-anxiety effects. A close relative, erythrina verna, is also known as mulungu and is used similarly. Mulungu has long been a part of traditional medicine in countries like Brazil, Peru, Columbia and Argentina. Only recently has it started gaining attention in the U.S. by those interested in herbal remedies. Among its primary uses in the U.S., mulungu is hepa-protective, meaning that it has been shown to protect the liver. The fact that it has been shown to protect the liver makes it unique as an anti-anxiety remedy. Mulungu has been compared to kava kava (piper methysticum) in its action as a natural anxiety treatment, although its effects are noticeably different. Some might say that mulungu is much more tranquilizing than kava. Acting on the GABA receptors in the brain, mulungu has shown through research to have effects similar to the tranquilizer, diazepam. As a result, it is used as a treatment for epilepsy, heart palpitations and muscle spasms. Mulungu is hypotensive, meaning that it lowers blood pressure. This may benefit those suffering from high blood pressure, but it could negatively impact those already with low blood pressure. Mulungu has a tendency to cause drowsiness, which means that it can be used to combat insomnia. But it can impair one's ability to operate a motor vehicle or machinery. Its sleep-inducing properties may be compared to melatonin or corydalis. Similarly, both mulungu and corydalis are used for pain relief. Mulungu is anti-inflammatory as well. Additionally, mulungu has anti- microbial properties that have led to its use in fighting uninary tract infections. Powdered mulungu bark has an attractive, spicy scent that is reminiscent of muira puama.

A fading shadowAs she stood there, staring up at that old wooden door, Rainbow hesitated. For those who knew her, hesitation was something that was very much against how she usually was. But on this day, she made an exception. This particular tower of the Canterlot royal palace was not as attractive on the inside as the rest of the building, owing largely to it's purpose of holding criminals. The walls were darker, colder than the other rooms, and the whole place was just largely unpleasant. She focused on this because it didn't seem right for her to be here.But Rainbow knew that she would have to address this. If she didn't, she'd regret it for the rest of her life. Raising a hoof, she pushed the old door open, and it creaked loudly, no doubt alerting the room's lone occupant of her arrival. The room within was small, with only a small window letting in any light. There was a small bed, upon which stood a young mint-green mare with a short yellow mane. Lightning Dust. Rainbow found it very difficul
Fight and flight"Lightning......I........what are you doing?!"The distress in her voice was clear as Rainbow, still on the ground, looked up and her former squad-mater, Lightning Dust. The green pegasus was flapping her wings, keeping above her rival, holding the element of loyalty which she had taken from Rainbow in the confusion of the tornado. She did not see what had happened to the other element-bearers, but it didn't matter. Because as long as just one of them was kept out of the fight, they couldn't use their elements."I'm doing what I have to."Rainbow looked incredibly confused, and Lightning could not blame her. The last the two had even seen each other, it was back at the Wonderbolt Academy, when Lightning was kicked out. And even though Lightning had been keeping up-to-date with Rainbow's activities, the latter probably hadn't even given her a second thought, as evidenced by her continuing look of confusion."What do you mean what you have to? I need that element!"Lightning looked to th
Preparations"What do you mean she isn't coming?"Lightning Dust was, understandably, upset over this news. She stood at the entrance to the main tunnel leading into the changeling hive, the air within cold and damp, and served as a stark contrast to the dry and hot air of the wastelands surrounding it. Her anger was directed towards the one who stood by her, Sombra. Under normal circumstances, he might have been rather upset that one of his subordinates was speaking to him like this. However, he was rather annoyed by the news himself."Chrysalis' command was clear. She will not be joining in the battle. However, you and I have command of hundreds of changelings that she has given to us in trust. Couple that with the other recent addition to our forces and we'll have more than enough raw power to take down the city."Lightning had no doubt that they had amassed a very impressive force. All she had to do was glance to her right, out of the tunnel entrance to see that. Out on the wide open spaces in
The battle beginsEver since she was a small filly, Twilight had always enjoyed the sound of trains. The way they moved along the tracks. She had not travelled on them much prior to her move to Ponyville, but on the few times she would venture on one with her parents, it was always a pleasant experience. She tried desperately now to focus on those happy memories, as a way of distracting herself, calming herself. But not matter how much she tried to, the grim truth of reality always broke through.She opened her eyes, having had them closed previously to try and focus on the train sounds, and looked around her cabin. Her friends were all there, sitting in their respective seats, as was Trixie. All of them had the same look of worry and concern. Despite Rainbow's speech prior to their departure, it was clear that it had done little to alleviate their fears. Even Pinkie, who was usually so upbeat regardless of the situation, was looking uncharacteristically down.Twilight sighed, secretly loathing her deci
Friendship is magic - Alternate endingShe almost couldn't believe her eyes. After what seemed like a night that would never end, the sun was finally rising. Twilight stood in the middle of the ruined castle, surrounded by the friends she'd made. Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity and Pinkie Pie. All of them had, much to her surprise, become incredibly important to her, and together, they'd achieved a great victory. Not only had they discovered the long-lost elements of harmony, but in doing so, they had also vanquished the mare who had threatened the land with eternal night. Nightmare Moon.But now that they had won, the sun's first rays were creeping over the horizon, and with them came a familiar voice. To her friends, it was strange, but to Twilight, it brought a smile to her face. She knew that voice well, and the pony it belonged to. As the sun rose, another light approached the window of the ruin. There was a blinding flash as the six mares covered there eyes. But when the light dimmed, they looked on in joy
A tyrant's last breathThe pain was great, but she ignored it. All that mattered to her now was that her own son stood above her, ready to end her life without the slightest hesitation. His horn glowed a bright red and his eyes bore a look of great anger. Sombra had won. After all of her hopes, her plans, her belief that things would turn out, all she had done was delayed the inevitable. Imprisoning him a thousand years ago hadn't stopped him, nor had his defeat at the Crystal Empire when he was free. She had failed to stop him completely, and now she was about to pay the price."Well mother......any last words?"In truth, there were many things she wanted to say to him. But she also knew that it didn't matter now. Instead, she closed her head and gently laid it on the ground, waiting for him to just get on with it. Seeing this reaction in her, Sombra's frown deepened."So be it."With her eyes closed, all Celestia could hear was the sizzling sound of Sombra's magic grow closer, no doubt from him aiming his
FracturesFear. That had always been his greatest weapon. A pony's greatest fear, used against the. Forcing one to face that fear time and time again until they lost the will to resist. Sombra had always had a talent for influencing the minds of others, but now, he had used fear against her in a way that required no magic on his part. Celestia had seen this day just how much of a blow he'd struck against Equestria by defeating Twilight. A moral defeat to be sure, but the after-effects were rearing their ugly heads.She sat there, upon her throne, and beside her sister, Luna. All day that had to assure and re-assure representatives from all over Equestria about the rumours and threats that had been emerging recently. The dragon attack on Ponyville was the start, but Twilight's defeat and transformation back into a unicorn had undermined the population's faith in her and the other alicorns abilities to protect them. Celestia could not blame them however. Sombra was a powerful enemy and, thus far,
Envy of a princessShe walked along the elaborate marble halls of the hall, taking in every sight with awe. Luna, the princess of the moon. Younger sister of Celestia, and co-ruler of Equestria. She was making her way along the main hall of the Canterlot royal palace, taking in this moment of solitude after recent events. It had been but a few days since her return from the small village of Ponyville, and thus, mere days since she gained her freedom from the darkness that had held sway over her heart for so many centuries.For a thousand years, Luna had been prisoner to a dark influence, born of her own sense of jealousy and envy. Envy of her sister, Celestia, whom she viewed as the more loved and respected of the two of them. A thousand years ago, Luna would look on in sadness as every one of her beautiful nights was shunned by the ponies of Equestria, while her sister's bright days were revelled and praised. She'd felt unappreciated, and at worst, ignored. That feeling of isolation had created that dar
A traitor discovered"SISTER!!!"Luna rushed forward as her elder sister, Celestia, fell to the ground. Just in time, she caught her before she collided with the stone ground on the balcony. She could not believe what she had just seen. Celestia had erected a powerful shield around the entire city, using some of the most potent magic Luna had ever witnessed. And with one attack, Sombra had shattered it. Smashed it apart as though it were nothing more than paper. Luna's expression bore a look of dismay and horror over this. Looking down, she saw her sister began to stir and regain consciousness over the shock of having her spell broken."What......what happened?" Celestia asked.Luna felt no joy in explaining what happened."Sister.....Sombra has broken your spell. The city is unguarded!"That snapped Celestia back to attention as her eyes widened with surprise. She knew her son was powerful, but for him to possess the kind of power to shatter her shield in one blow. That was a magic she'd never seen him us
The Night's Knight: Prologue"I will save you my princess!"A helpless mare was surrounded by a pack of diamond dogs in their underground cavern. She looked to the entrance of the cavern, and beheld a sight that left her in awe and relief.A kirin stood proudly there, clad in golden armor and holding a spear with his magic as he pounded his four hooves to the ground, ready to charge the enemies that stood before him."For Equestria!"He galloped at full speed, with his spear's tip aimed directly at the surprised diamond dogs. In a flash he threw the spear to the one, which unfortunately missed as the dog estimated it's trajectory. Luckily for the kirin, he teleported to the center of the group and gave a round of bucks to every dog's head. The dogs soared through the room as the strength of each kick was felt by them, knocking them out almost instantly.When all the enemies were defeated, the kirin trotted to the helpless mare and cut off the rope that held her tight. When
The Night's Knight Ch. 1InitiationThe next evening, after Princess Luna raised the moon, she and Princess Celestia walked along the corridor."...And that's everything we need to do at the meeting on Wednesday. Understand, Luna?" Celestia heard no response from her sister. "Luna, are you listening?""Oh! Um . . . of course we did sister," she responded. "We were just thinking about how to convince the regional governors to limit their spending in their cities.""I understand fully Luna, but considering the numerous problems such as the border wars between us and the Griffon Kingdom. If we're going to avoid going in debt, then we need to take every precaution.""Very well Tia, but we-""Princess Luna, a word with you please," said a voice.The two alicorns turned around to see Silver Storm standing nearby and looked a little impatient."Some of the guards have been caught hazing another recruit. I w
We Remember Everything (Loki X Luna)Know your place, Brother.You're my son... I wanted only to protect you from the truth... Loki, this is madness! You can't kill an entire race! ...I could have done it, Father! I could have done it! For you! For all of us!……No, Loki. This was a place unfamiliar to even the well-traveled Æsir known for his trickery, lies and mischief. The god had fallen only to find himself in a woods he had not explored before. It was not one he had used to study away from prying, contemptuous eyes, and it was not one journeyed through on some quest his father had assigned he and his brother.That thought made Loki, the fallen Æsir, to wince as if in pain.Brother...Father...In an attempt to shake off the pain associated with those things, Loki moved a hand to his head while he continued to lay uncomfortably stomach down on the ground. The contact on his head would not be what he expected, however. Instead
The King's War Ch9Chapter 9Familiarized Eyes As he sat at the edge of the glowing crater, Major Bolt couldn't help but wonder what's next. Looking at the glowing zap apple tree of his past was the only way he could feel at ease. It was here almost eleven years ago that he first created the Lightning Orb... It was here that every aspect of his foalhood from his parents, his home, his age, and his existents was erased from his memory. As he tried pondering his actions, he heard a gentle sound of hoofprints approach from behind. "Star Bolt? Are you ok?" Major Bolt didn't turn around as he replied, "Luna? What am I supposed to do? I... I don't know what to do next."Princess Luna smiled as she sat down beside Major Bolt, "Do what you think is best, I'm sure you will make the rig...""But I don't know what's best!...
A Charred Stone Ch1Chapter 1The Lonely Shade of White My foalhood wasn't so average… but it was my life and I will always remember it. Every morning, mommy would wake me up and ask how my day would be. She had a habit of wearing a bandanna to match the mood of the day; passionate red, slothful blue, worrisome amber, but when the day was going to be a good one she would wear my favorite color, a special pink. Daddy would already be awake and ready for work. He was an important negotiator who did business between the ponies of Equestria, and the dragons of Dragon Mountain. Every morning before sunrise, he would give me a hug before work. He always said it gives him courage when he spoke to the scary dragons. But I knew he was just kidding. Daddy was the bravest pony I knew, nothing could scare him, that's why we lived in the forest at the base of Dragon Mountain.
MLPFiM: Lingering Shadows ch. 1Chapter 1: The Prison of Shadows Long, twisting vines of ivy crept up the side of the observatory tower, one of the few locations in the royal palace that was overgrown. The royal gardeners had barely touched the ivy in the past year or two, at Princess Luna's request. She loved the charm and character the vines added to her tower, and if there were any concerns about the creeping plant breaking down the stone and masonwork, then she would be the one to reinforce the tower with magic. Her elder sister, Princess Celestia, thought the notion a fine one, and nopony else objected.At that moment, she was finishing the spellwork necessary to weaken the choking vines, and watching as the sun started its slow climb down from its zenith. The day was moving into the afternoon and before long, the afternoon would move into the dusk, and then Luna would raise the moon and begin her official duties as the Princess of the Night. It wasn't easy, becoming reaccust
The Price of Harmony Prolougue and Ch1Prologue The howling wind and the flowing water were the only sounds he could hear, and considering what he heard prior to falling unconscious… this sound terrified him. Slowly Star Bolt opened only one eye as the other was submerged in the gently flowing water around him. Looking around from where he laid, Star Bolt could tell that he was lying in the shallow river that flowed through the valley. With every bone in in his body aching from the catastrophe. Star Bolt rolled from his side onto his back. As he looked into the sky, he could see a small clearing in the surrounding dust, and through that clearing, he could see the orange colored sky that was supposed to be dusk… but he knew that it was closer to twelve o'clock midnight. Seeing this only deepened hi
A Night To Remember: Luna's big Decision Part 22Cielo recoiled a bit at Celestia's harsh tone, cold and spiteful as she asked the question, it was not really considered secretive Cielo had feeling for Luna but he did not think they flaunted it about under her eyes. "W-Working towards her heart!? What do you mean!?" Cielo stammered at first trying to regain the composer Celestia was able to strike from him with such a simple question."Don't play dumb!" Celestia scoffed turning her gaze back to the flames "I have seen you two and the way you act towards one another" she paused taking a deep breath and swallowing her anger and frustration with him for the time being "It's been this way since you came back after your first assignment while under her service".Cielo remained quiet for a moment thinking of how to respond, he was not ashamed of his feeling nor felt them to be wrong however, Celestia was quite protective and he knew butting heads with her would not prove wis
The Clash of Sun and Moon - An Alternate Tale"Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria, there were two Regal Sisters who ruled together, and created harmony for all the land.""To do this, the eldest used her unicorn powers to raise the sun at dawn; the younger brought out the moon to begin the night.""Thus, the two sisters maintained balance for their kingdom and their subjects, all the different types of ponies.""But as time went on, cracks appeared between the two sisters.""The younger sister became resentful. The ponies relished and played in the day her elder sister brought forth, but shunned and slept through her beautiful night. Her jealousy grew as she dwell longer and longer in her elder sister's shadow.""The elder sister meanwhile became consumed by a different darkness: out of everything else, she only desired to protect her subjects from any and all forms of harm. As her desire became an obsession, she come to see her younger sister's night as one of the things that caused it to them the most.""The elde
When chaos meets darknessEver since she'd entered the fray, it had been a complete melee. Luna had not had to do any real fighting for many centuries, and it showed. Her movements were more sluggish than they had been in her youth and she was unaccustomed to having so much happen around her at once. Changelings would strike at her and attempt to knock her out of the sky in droves, knowing that if she fell, it would deal a serious blow to the morale of the ponies forces.But in spite of that, Luna was no pushover. As an alicorn, she was an incredibly skilled flier, weaving past the many attacks by her changeling foes and bucking them in mid-air attacks. And if that wasn't bad enough for the changelings, there was also Luna's considerable talent in the field of magic. Her blasts from her horn had sent dozens of the beasts reeling and falling out of the sky. It was clear to all why Celestia had sent her up here, for Canterlot would easily have been lost by now if it hadn't been for Luna's involvement.Further hop

Lydia Lassila reacts after landing her jump to win the gold medal during the World Cup aerials competition in Quebec on Tuesday. Photo: AP
Consecutive winter Olympic gold medals appear to be in reach for Lydia Lassila, the aerial skier showing some of her best form to win her first World Cup event in four years in Canada on Tuesday.
It was a red letter day for the Australian contingent at the Quebec resort of Val St Come with David Morris capturing his first medal for the season, a bronze, while Samantha Wells was fourth and Renee McElduff eighth.
Lassila hadn't topped a World Cup podium since January 2010, with the Victorian going on to take gold at the Vancouver winter Olympics a month later. She took two years out of the sport to start a family and, before Tuesday's victory, had four runner-up finishes in the two years since her comeback.
But she delivered spectacularly in the four-woman super final, landing a difficult triple twisting triple somersault to finish ahead of China's Nina Li and Xin Zhang.
''I have had some podium finishes and great performances but having a win is definitely more special,'' Lassila said from Quebec.
''I am just really happy with the way I won. It was fair and square and I was doing a higher degree of difficulty than anyone else.''
Lassila would like to land a quad-twisting somersault in time for the next month's Games - but admitted her winning jump on Tuesday was tough enough.
''It was quite taxing for me and takes a lot of energy and I am still nervous about it but the only way to get through them is to do them,'' she said.
The other bonus for the Australians was the conditions; unlike the frigid temperatures of recent weeks in North America, it was warmer and wetter much like Sochi is likely to be.
Morris said he still had plenty to work on after finishing behind winner Liu Zhongqing from China and American Mac Bohonnon.
''We got one day of training because our bags didn't arrive on time. It was all a bit of a shambles,'' he said. ''But it played out pretty well in the end.''

The US public health system has serious vulnerabilities, and one major problem is identifying and responding to public health crimes.
With more than 4,000 people falling ill since 2007, the Netherlands is experiencing one of the world's worst outbreaks of Q fever. A zoonotic disease (meaning it can be transmitted from animals to people), Q fever can cause sickness and even death in humans. The Dutch struggle to address the ongoing outbreak can be instructive in terms of how to improve the handling of public health crises, and the rest of the world would do well to learn from their experience.
Of the many ways in which the United States is unprepared to deal with an infectious disease outbreak or bioterrorist attack, here's one of the most problematic: The responsibility for public health is a state concern.

RIVERSIDE, Calif. (KTLA) -- A horse was killed, and its owner was hospitalized, after a swarm of bees attacked them in Riverside.
It happened in the Arlanza neighborhood Thursday afternoon.
The horse's owner was treated for numerous bee stings at an emergency room.
He asked hospital officials to send someone to check on his horse.
Riverside County Animal Services officers discovered that the animal had died from bee stings.
It's wasn't immediately known how many times the horse and the owner were stung.
Animal Services says the bees may have been bothered when the owner started spraying his horse with fly repellent. They swarmed out of two hives in the neigbhorhood.
Exterminators were called to get rid of the hives.

Adam Cole & Sami Callihan Headed To WWE?, Details
By Ryan Clark on January 10, 2013
Following WWE starting the process to sign Independent star El Generico, word is that Adam Cole and Sami Callihan will have tryouts as well with WWE.
The company has changed their attitude about signing top independent workers that don't necessarily have the look and size that WWE traditionally looks for. This is partly due to the success of CM Punk, Daniel Bryan and now Dean Ambrose and Seth "Tyler Black" Rollins. Punk and Bryan have specifically caused a different mentality when it comes to talent coming through the Independents as well as talent that doesn't have the look, the size and the physique that used to be the first thing they would look for.
The old WWE mentality was to sign people who could be TV stars and teach them to wrestle the "WWE style", as opposed to signing great wrestling talent and giving them the ball and seeing how far they can run with it.

Not So Serious Skateboarding
Words cant describe how rad this guy is, an innovator of skateboarding in his prime doing stuff nobody had seen or done since.

Skateboarding has seemed to become such a serious deal these days when at the end of it all its all about having fun. Simon Woodstock puts the fun and enjoyment into skateboarding. Take twenty or so minutes out of your Sunday to watch this two part documentary about Simon's journey through the highs and lows of his skateboarding life. If you can spare the time good on ya ! if not ….your probably far too serious!
Also check his guest boards via Death Skateboards.
You must all know by now that Central Skatepark is no longer here for all you moshers to shred it up….. R.I.P! It has been an mint 8 years and the support you guys have shown has been truly amazing!

Section Hype!
Following on from yesterdays piece on Sexual Stu's top fives we decided to delve a little deeper and ask him, what's the section that gets you most hyped on to go skating?
This one is an easy one for me ! When I was younger I used to watch this section endlessly, on repeat, maybe at least four or five times before getting the bus into town to skate, it got me so hyped back then and it still does when I watch it now. For me Jim Greco 's section on Baker 2G is a timeless classic! That opening line finishing off with the back three down the Med Choice gap wow! What a way to start a section! Then theres that blunt, stuff down the Wiltshere stairs and then that banging ender!
Now don't get me wrong, I know his other sections like his last Deathwish one were rad but for me 2G is the one to watch if you want to get gnarly, hypes me up every time. Give this a watch, grab your board, go shred and try to learn back threes like Greco

Thomasville - The idea is to improve the appearance of the city at its entry points.
City Planner Jon Sewell says, "What it does is it provides a set of guidelines and standards for new development or redevelopment in those corridors. An existing business will not be effected, they will not be asked to comply with the new zoning codes, the only change for them would be, if anything were redeveloped substantially in the future they would have to comply with the new zoning code."
The proposal will go to city council on July 12th for consideration. A meeting is being held at the Thomasville Chamber of Commerce Thursday at 7 PM to get input from business owners and other community members.

Knowing when to buy and when to pass on a sale is an important part of being a Krazy Couponer. Make sure you set personal price points and stock up when sales match up.
A price point is the highest price you are willing to pay for a certain product. Price points will differ by region and your needs. For example, your price point for a loaf of bread may be higher for gluten-free options, a favorite brand of laundry detergent, or organic items. Other factors will be areas that double coupons, cost of living, limited supply or high demand.
Check out the KCL Stock Up Price List that shows 3-month stock up prices (very good) or 6-month (amazing!) prices to serve as a guideline for your personal price points. In general, price points will be a bit higher than stock up prices, but it will give you a good idea of what to look for.

15 thoughts on "Extreme Couponing Tip: Know Your Price Points"
Is there a template of this kind of spreadsheet somewhere online?
When I saw this tip I was so excited! I just started couponing and could really use help with deals. But after I opened the chart, I am even more confused. Ive been looking at the adds over and over. Im so confused on how you actually get items for these prices?? Can anyone help?
These prices come from tracking a year's worth of deals highlighted on KCL. They include deals from all sorts of stores– drugstores, supercenters, grocery stores, and office supply stores.
They are after coupons and include prices after rebates, rewards, and/or Catalinas. It serves as a guideline– it basically lets you know you shouldn't buy toothpaste unless it's less than $1, so sometimes the icon means "It's okay to buy it at this price [99¢] if you need it/ this is your preferred brand/ you have a limited store selection" but reference the full stock up price list for the *best* prices to buy at.
The prices are for the West Coast with non-doubling prices (so prices will probably be higher in Alaska, Hawaii, D.C., or New York City– places with high cost of living, but cheaper in areas that have a lower cost of living and stores that double or triple coupons).
I believe the 3-month and 6-month stock up prices means that if you find it for the 3-month price you should by enough to last you for 3 months and like wise. Someone please correct me if I am wrong because I and not positive I have it correct.
Does the 6 month and 3 month price mean every 3 or 6 months this should be the price point? Does it mean if you shop every 3 or 6 months for that particular item this should be the price? I'm confused
It means that those prices tend to come around every 3 months or 6 months, so you'll want to stock up for 1-3 months or 4-6 months+, respectively when those prices come up. The stock up prices are based on sale cycles and seasons. For example, cream soups, baking supplies, and canned pumpkin will be the cheapest around the holidays, while summer is best for a lot of produce.
It means that when a price is a "3-month" stock up price, it usually comes around every 3 months or so, so you'll want to stock up with about 3 months' worth of product. Same goes for the 6-month price– you'll want to get 6 months+ (especially of non-perishables), or the maximum limit allowed, as some of the stellar deals have small limit numbers.
I'm new to this, please explain the price point list and how you came up with those prices. I don't understand the difference between the 6month and 3month price point differences. How do you come up with the prices?
These prices on the master list are the best prices that we tracked for a year. They are based on our non-doubling area (the west coast), and after coupons/ Rewards/ Catalinas/ rebates. The three month prices are good prices to buy at– you'll want to buy a 1-3 month supply of it at that price if you're in need of it. If you come across a six month price, you'll definitely want to stock up since those prices only come around a few times a year. They are from all kinds of locations– drugstores, grocery stores, farmer's markets, supercenters, etc.
Keep in mind your area's prices may differ or your stock up prices might be different based on brand and diet preferences (Tide vs. Xtra or Purex detergent, organic/ all-natural options, etc) or store selection in your area (if you don't have a drugstore, prices for personal care items will probably be higher).
The master stock up price list was tracked on a year's worth of deals we covered at KCL, based out of the non-doubling West Coast (where we're located). It includes prices from drugstores, grocery stores, supercenters, office supply and other locations such as farmer's markets or online shopping. They are also based on the yearly sale cycles, such as canned soup, cranberry sauce, and baking supplies around the holidays, condiments and fresh produce in the summer, school supplies in the fall, etc.
The "3-month" stock up prices usually come around every 3 months or so, so you'll want to stock up with about 3 months' worth of product. Same goes for the 6-month price– you'll want to get 6 months+ (especially of non-perishables), or the maximum limit allowed, as some of the stellar deals have small limit numbers.
A personal price point can also depend on how much time one has to spend on couponing. Since I work full time and can't spend as much time as many on my coupons, I find that I have to decide where my couponing time is best spent each week. I can't do as much research, clipping, organizing and shopping as I'd like to do. Therefore my price point might be higher on some items but then other times I manage to beat the 6 month stock up prices. I know that I'm doing so much better than I did before couponing and that's what counts, not always that I get the best deal out there. I do keep a google doc spreadsheet of all of my expenditures to be sure I stay within my self imposed monthly budget. I track it by store, and also by category (food, toiletries, liquor, household) so that at the end of the month I have a quick review of what I spent in each category and where I shopped. I also list the UPs, RR, Catalina's etc by expiration date because I have been known to forget about one or two and that is a killer! This way I can see everything at a glance and I can access my google doc from home or work.
Keep in mind, though, that the stock-up prices on the stock-up price list are generally lower than the prices for items in the blog entries using the 3-month & 6-month stock up price logos. The blog will indicate that an item is at a 3-month or 6-month stock-up price relative to the original price, not necessarily agreeing with the the stock-up price from the list.
My price point for groceries in my area is if the price is lower than Wal-Mart (Wal-Mart is an hour from my home). I keep a handwritten list of current Wal-Mart prices so I know when I should buy/stock up from the the grocery stores closer to home (Safeway, Raley's, etc.).
My price point for health & beauty items & cleaning supplies (from CVS, Riteaid, etc.) is almost freeor under $0.50 for everything with the exception of Herbal Essence for my teenage daughter I will pay up to $0.99 a bottle =) – I NEVER buy any of these items from Wal-Mart anymore – ever.
Thanks KCL SO MUCH for your website – you have allowed our family to save money and give so many things away to folks not as blessed as us – just this morning I am going to our local food pantry with bags full of things to share – how fun is that??? =)
Way to spread the coupon love, norcalKCL! That is wonderful to share your extras with those in need. We're glad that our website has helped!
It's true that the icons on matchups can differ from the master list. There can be several reasons for this: It can be due to brand differences (some customers are willing to pay more to get Crest or Tide than the cheapest name brand), area differences (areas that double coupons, so their matchups might differ from areas that don't double), or the specific store (areas that don't have a drugstore that has super cheap personal care items might have a stock up price of 99¢ since they can only shop at one or two stores in a small town, etc).
And here's some helpful info for the newbies:
Basically you shouldn't buy toothpaste unless it's less than $1, so sometimes the icon means "It's okay to buy it at this price [99¢] if you need it/ this is your preferred brand/ you have a limited store selection" but reference the full stock up price list for the *best* prices to buy at.
These prices are based on non-doubling prices (Heather & I don't have any stores that regularly double coupons), though after store discounts and coupons. Remember that these are the best prices from year-round. So the cheap cranberry sauce, soups, and baking supplies will be around the holidays, diet products in January, the summer is best for lots of fresh produce, late summer/ early fall for school supplies, etc. And they vary by store– the best prices on personal care items are at drugstores, sometimes convenience or drugstores have great prices on milk & eggs to get you in their doors, a local farmer's market or u-pick farm for produce, etc. To get the prices listed (or ones close to it), Krazy Couponers will need to shop several stores and shop the monthly & yearly sale cycles, plus utilize Rewards, promos, Catalinas, and rebates.
I am so, so glad you posted this!!! I've just started couponing and noticed that I can get wrapped up on "a good deal". But then an even better deal comes along, but I already bought the product. I really appreciate it!!!!!!!!!

GeForce GTX 780 review -
Product Showcase
Product Showcase
Alright... pretty pictures time! A couple of pages with photo's then and most of it from our own photo-shoot :)
So as you can see the GeForce GTX 780 and yeah, it is looking a lot like the GeForce GTX Titan, a similar fashioned cooler is being used, that I might add is awesome as it is very silent. The card is 10.5 Inches in length which is like 27 cm for those in that like and reside in the Metric system ;)
The card itself is a dual-slot solution and the cooling is vapor chamber based, in fact the card remains fairly silent which was a pleasant surprise alright. That cooler is awesome, the fan plexiglass is being used so you can actually look into the cooler's aluminum fins. The fan is outfitted with a special design, its airflow is carefully directed to take in air from the PC and exhaust it outside the PC, in order to optimize cooling efficiency while minimizing noise causing restrictions.
With the GeForce GTX 780 you will receive four display connectors, you'll spot a full size Display port connector, one full size HDMI connector and two DVI connectors (dual-link). You can combine these connectors to setup a surround view (multi-monitor) setup. One card will give you more than sufficient performance to play your games on three monitors.
To date we still receive this question a lot, but dual-link DVI does not mean you can hook up two monitors to one connector. Dual-link means double the signal, that way monitor resolutions over 1920x1200 can be supported or you could use a 120Hz monitor. So explained very simple, dual-link DVI supports high-resolution (above 1920x1200) or high-refresh rate (120Hz) monitors.
The GeForce GTX 780 will have its price set a notch above GeForce the GTX 680, the price premium does show in things like the cooling and sheer silence. The heatsink shell is made from casted aluminum with an injection molded magnesium alloy. This is a good conductor of heat plus it helps out in isolating noise. And preventing noise for this product series is a key thing for Nvidia.
Each GeForce GTX 780 will have a maximum power design of 250 Watts, but they are made to overclock as well. As such Nvidia is using an one 150W 8-pin PEG, and one 75W 6-pin PEG (PCI EXpress Graphics) connector. Another 75 to 150 Watts is delivered though the PCI slot and thus motherboard. This should be plenty for a decent overclocking session.
