An FFC Review of Kim Beyong-seo and Jo Eui-Seok's South Korean thriller "Cold Eyes."
An FFC Review of Kim Beyong-seo and Jo Eui-Seok's South Korean thriller "Cold Eyes."
An FFC looks at the horrible situation in Ferguson, MO and what it says about where we are and where we're going.
Much progress has been made in representing African-American life onscreen, but there's a long way to go.
An updated list of the theatrical venues and VOD platforms currently screening "Life Itself."
Robert Aldrich's "Hustle" is the kind of many-layered, complex, cynical crime story we get more often these days in novels than in movies. Maybe that's because novels (especially the Ross Macdonald books) like to relish their atmosphere more, to fool around with mood and provide a certain style for the dialog and characters.
Crime movies used to do that, too -- it used to be their specialty -- but in recent years a lot of cop and private eye movies have collapsed into set pieces for violence. We get shoot-outs, bloody death and high-speed chases, all handled with such mechanistic efficiency that we can't tell one movie from another.
"Hustle" isn't like that. It's a movie about characters, primarily. It cares more about getting inside these people than it does about solving its crime. And the two leading characters, a Los Angeles police lieutenant and a French prostitute, become unexpectedly interesting because they're made into such individuals by Burt Reynolds and Catherine Deneuve. Sure, the characters sound like clichés -- the cop and the hooker -- and on the basis of their track records, we wouldn't necessarily expect Reynolds or Deneuve to transform them. They've played their share of fairly routine cops and whores before; it's a house specialty. But this time they create an involved, absorbing relationship that works.
We meet them in bed. We see a lot of them in bed, in fact, and it would be less than honest not to admit that Reynolds and Deneuve -- despite all the old jokes about his Cosmopolitan centerfold and her Chanel ads -- are uncommonly attractive people. But Aldrich doesn't just photograph them, he uses them: Deneuve for the tantalizing aura of icy kinkiness that came through in "Belle de Jour" and "Tristana," and Reynolds for the humor and vulnerability he mixes in with his virility.
She'd get out of the business in a moment if he'd marry her, she says, although there's a certain fascinating detachment about the way she takes $100 dirty phone calls and spends afternoons on the yachts of rich lawyers. He'd marry her, except he's on the rebound from a bad marriage, and, besides, she's a hooker.
They almost get this difficulty worked out, but some problems intervene. A girl is found dead beside a swimming pool and the rich lawyer (played by Eddie Albert with that Middle American savagery he has perfected recently) is implicated. The girl's father (Ben Johnson) is convinced that murder is involved. He accuses the cops of being on the take.
What they know and he doesn't is that the girl had been involved for three years as a prostitute, porno movie star and Sunset Strip stripper and that she almost certainly committed suicide. Reynolds and his partner (Paul Winfield, who played the father in "Sounder") circle around this case while handling whatever else comes up, like a homicidal killer holding hostages. They also drink a lot of Bushmill's Irish Whiskey, which is referred to by name so often it's like Paul Newman ordering a Coors.
It's in the secondary characters that the movie begins to take on a richness of texture we weren't really expecting. Johnson has never quite been the same, we learn, since he came back from Korea. He lived for his daughter. His wife (Eileen Brennan) is worried that he might try something foolish, and she's right. He tracks his daughter's trail through seedy strip clubs (seen by Aldrich in just the right sad light) and finds his way to the rich lawyer. Now it happens that the lawyer, Albert, is the man who helped Deneuve get a visa to America in the first place. Reynolds knows this. In fact, he knows Albert is still one of Deneuve's clients. Reynolds thinks he's hard-boiled enough, cynical enough that this doesn't bother him, but it does. And yet he knows Albert didn't kill Johnson's daughter: "He's killed other people, but he didn't do this one." His partner is the one person he can confide in; he and Winfield sit around the station a lot, buying each other drinks out of the office bottle.
And we begin to realize that there's really a mystery involved here. The girl did commit suicide. The lawyer didn't kill her. The problem is with the father, but Reynolds believes he can handle him. "Hustle" develops as a movie about its characters, rather than about any crime they've got to solve. It's not as linear as routine cop thrillers. It's got a lot of weariness and humor, largely due, I'm sure, to the screenplay by Steve ("Save the Tiger") Shagan. Aldrich, who's an old hand at seedy urban melodrama (his credits include "Kiss Me Deadly" and "The Big Knife") never gets too cute and never gets too dull: He's found the right note. And in the movie's center, circling warily, are Reynolds and Deneuve, both so worn, so worldly, so cynical, they don't even realize what total romantics they are.

Another View -- Susan G. Price: Why we opted for the Obamacare penalty instead of its insurance
I am sure we can all see the soon-to-be "death spiral" of Obamacare in New Hampshire, and I assume in other states with relatively small populations for which only one insurer signed up to participate in healthcare.gov. Most of the healthy people will opt out, and the system will be left with those who receive more in benefits than they pay in premiums. The premiums will increase, and more and more people will opt out and pay the penalty. This will be the biggest example of adverse selection the New Hampshire insurance market has ever seen. And guess what? Not one more person of limited means or with a pre-existing condition will really be helped. Wasn't that what started all this?

After going over the 2014 free agent list, I couldn't really tell if there are any possible big additions that Trent Baalke and Jim Harbaugh could get that would make our team much better. With the amount of draft picks we have, it doesn't make much sense to spend a bunch of money in free agency. Of course, the Faithful want Boldin and Dawson back after making huge impacts for the team this year. It is obvious we need a fast receiver that can stretch the field and a cornerback. None of the top WRs are appealing. The only possible fit I see would be Emmanuel Sanders. We know his speed fits what we are looking for and he makes big plays, but the Niners may be looking for a bigger target. As far as cornerbacks, I think we really just need Tarrell Brown back, have Chris Culliver healthy and we should be set at the position with a couple draft picks. The name that pops up most is Oklahoma St.'s Justin Gilbert. According to scouting reports, he has elite speed and is good in man coverage. All the negatives seem to be about effort or technique. With the veterans on the Niners defense, I'm sure the effort wouldn't be an issue because Willis and Bowman would set him straight. Technique could be taught with a year learning the ins and outs of playing CB in the NFL. I don't expect much movement from the Niners in free agency. I except them to resign their own guys more than anything. Watch out for them to make moves in the draft with so many picks stashed away this year. Now on to the links.

Mark Bridger charged with the murder of April Jones
Police have charged 46-year-old Mark Bridger with the murder of missing five-year-old April Jones.
Mr Bridger has also been charged with child abduction and attempting to pervert the course of justice.
April disappeared from the Bryn-y-Gog estate in Machynlleth on Monday evening.
– Chief Constable Jackie Roberts, Dyfed Powys Police
Now that Mark Bridger has been charged with this horrific crime it is time to let the judicial process take its course and time to let the family come to terms with what has happened over the last week. In the meantime our efforts to find April will be as meticulous as they have been from the outset of this enquiry until we have exhausted all available options.
Despite today's announcement we are maintaining the momentum of the search and we remain totally focused and committed to finding April.
Our efforts to find April will be as meticulous as they have been from the outset of this enquiry we will exhaust all available options.
Mark Bridger will appear before Aberystwyth Magistrates' Court on Monday morning.
Mr Bridger, a local man who police say is known to the Jones family, was first arrested on suspicion of April's abduction on Tuesday afternoon.
Police confirmed he had been arrested on suspicion of her murder on Friday.
His Land Rover Discovery was also seized by police and is undergoing forensic examination.
Having carried out a detailed review of the evidence gathered so far by Dyfed Powys Police, my conclusion is that there is sufficient evidence to charge Mark Bridger with the murder of April Jones, and that it is in the public interest to do so.
I realise that this is an incredibly difficult time for April's family, friends and the community. My thoughts are with them – and indeed with all those affected by this week's events.
Search teams resumed efforts on Saturday morning to locate April after searches were called off on Friday night for the first time since her disappearance on Monday.
Emergency services including the Coastguard, RNLI, RAF mountain rescue and 150 members of mountain rescue teams from across the UK have been searching since April vanished.
Our correspondent Carl Edwards reported live from Aberystwyth shortly after the charge was announced.

Storage Pricewatch: HDDs back to pre-flood prices, SSDs grow as $/GB holds steady April 19, 2013 at 2:40 pm
Storage prices have fallen for spinning discs and held steady for SSDs, but solid state drive capacities have shot up in recent months. What's the total market look like, and what should we expect for the next 5-6 months? We investigate.
IBM 3390: The world's largest and most expensive hard drive teardown December 10, 2012 at 11:10 am
If you lived through the '70s or '80s, you probably remember a time when technology was big. Case in point: The IBM hard drive pictured here, which weighs in at 38.5kg (85lbs) and stores a grand total of between 1 and 2 gigabytes.
HDD Pricewatch: Black Friday deals, and prices finally reach pre-flood levels November 22, 2012 at 11:00 am
Hard drive prices are taking a tumble for at least the next few days, as are SSDs — but we'd be wary of the solid state deals that are likely to come flying.
Chemists create self-assembling polymer that increases hard drive capacity by 5X November 14, 2012 at 10:25 am
When you think of increased storage capacity, you most likely don't think of self-assembling polymers that only require heat in order to rearrange themselves. However, with the potential to increase HDD storage capacity fivefold, researchers at the University of Texas might make self-assembling polymers the norm.
New server-class SSDs from Samsung and Intel reach 800GB, up to 800MB/sec November 8, 2012 at 10:18 am
The past two weeks have seen two interesting announcements, and this is going to help SSDs get even more traction in the server market, and maybe even help out regular consumers.
Fusion Drive: Apple jumps on the (ridiculously overpriced) SSD cache bandwagon October 24, 2012 at 9:37 am
Apple's new Fusion Drive unveil points toward the adoption of a cache accelerator structure, similar to what we've reviewed before. Good performance benefit, but the price is steep.
Does the consumer hard drive have a future? October 1, 2012 at 8:11 am
Like it or not, there just doesn't seem to be a ton of advancement happening on the consumer hard drive front. What does this mean for consumers, PC builders, and "power users"?
Toshiba tries solving fast, affordable storage conundrum with hybrid hard drive September 26, 2012 at 8:06 am
Available in 750GB and 1TB capacities, Toshiba's Hybrid Drive (MQ01ABDH series) stuffs a pair of platters into a 2.5-inch enclosure that measures 9.5mm high. Each one is equipped with 8GB of NAND flash memory, which is used to store and dish up frequently accessed data in a hurry.
The squeak of innovation: Western Digital launching helium-filled hard drives September 17, 2012 at 8:16 am
Western Digital is building a new type of hard drive — an enclosure that's hermetically sealed and filled with helium. What're the benefits and challenges of doing so? We investigate.
Cache of the titans: SSD storage accelerators from Intel and Corsair face off August 7, 2012 at 11:43 am
Today, hard drives are too slow and solid-state drives are too small. SSD cache drives have emerged as a means of bridging this gap — they bring SSD speed to HDD capacity in an affordable package.

PLAYERS: Travis Blackley

TEAMS: Oakland Athletics, Houston Astros
Travis Blackley was a key part late in the season for the Oakland A's helping the team win the AL West. His reward was failing to make the squad out of spring training. On Thursday the A's traded the 30-year-old Australian born pitcher to the Houston Astros for light hitting outfielder Jake Goebbert. Brian McTaggart of MLB.com says Blackley is expected to join the active roster tomorrow. Blackley was once a top prospect in the Mariners organization before suffering arm trouble. He has a 5.37 ERA in the majors but last season provided a spark to the A's after being claimed off waivers from San Francisco. With Oakland Blackley pitched 102 2/3 innings over 15 starts and nine relief appearances. The Astros will likely start Blackley in the bullpen but with the current roster in Houston there is a great chance that he could find himself in the starting rotation quickly. Goebbert, a 25-year-old corner outfielder, owns a .285/.363/.431 batting line over four seasons in the minors. stros ...

Alzheimer's Disease Health Center
Average Dementia Survival: 4.5 Years
Caring for Those With Dementia
Researcher Murna Downs, PhD, says most people don't recognize that dementia is a disease people live with, and not just a death sentence.
Downs' research focuses on quality-of-life issues among dementia patients.
"People with dementia live a long time, and we now know that there is a lot of awareness," she says. "People assume that if someone doesn't know where they are they have no other capacity for thinking and feeling. But people with dementia continue to think and to laugh and to feel the rain on their faces, and to try to make sense of their world."
She adds that patients are often isolated because family members or other caregivers fail to recognize their need for interaction and stimulation.
"The therapeutic potential of human contact cannot be underestimated," she says. "You would never put a small child in a chair and let them sit there all day with nothing to do. Children need stimulation and human contact and so do people with dementia."

Walk for Wellness
$566 raised
so far
Everyone takes part in this annual event, whether they can jump rope or not, as a reminder of the importance of exercise and heart health.
This event was started six years ago. Then when our PE Coach Adkins passed away unexpectedly, we started dedicating this event to her memory. Coach Adkins was passionate about getting kids to move and exercise. We feel this is a fitting tribute to her life and the kids look forward to it every year.
A portion of the funds raised from this event will be used to purchase new PE equipment. Funds will also be used to support PTA activities, such as extracurricular clubs, supplies for classrooms, programs for families, and much more.

LYME, N.H. (AP) - A New Hampshire church pastor is camping outside in the cold this week to draw attention to homelessness and hunger.
Steven Gehlert has put a small tent on the lawn of the Lyme Congregational Church.
The 64-year-old Gehlert, an experienced winter camper, told the congregation of his plan Sunday.
He tells the Valley News he intentionally timed the project to start on Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend. He said King's message was about creating a society where the less fortunate were treated with dignity and respect.

Even people who really enjoy traveling will tell you not all flights are created equal, and that's where a new Android app called Hipmunk can help.
Designed as an alternative to traditional flight search sites, Hipmunk's developers say it "doesn't just show you the cheapest flight first — the app instead sorts by 'agony,' which incorporates important factors like how long you'll be traveling and how many stops you'll make."
With her career on the upswing, Britney Spears now has one more thing to celebrate: on Friday, the pop star became the latest celebrity to reach the eight-figure follower mark on Twitter.

In the hours following the announcement that Apple co-founder Steve Jobs had passed away, numerous tributes began pouring in both on and off the web.
Apple's highly-anticipated 'Let's Talk iPhone' event on Tuesday began with newly-installed CEO Tim Cook reflecting on some of the company's successes, as well as one new one: the new iPhone.
Dubbed the iPhone 4S, the gadget keeps with the company's tradition of introducing completely new models every other year, with upgrades in between.
Software developer Arturo Castro was able to come up with a computer program using FaceTracker technology that allows him to both morph the faces of others onto his own in real time video and then control the expressions of this Franken-face with his facial movements.
Castro has some fun with the creepy technology in the video below, in which he shifts from Paris Hilton to Fidel Castro to Steve Jobs and then onto more famous faces.

Read our Evil Dead review here!
Ghost House Pictures is producing the much anticipated remake of The Evil Dead, the film that effectively launched the careers of Sam Raimi (Spider-Man franchise, Darkman, Drag Me to Hell), Rob Tapert (30 Days of Night), and Bruce Campbell, who played the Ash character and was co-producer of the original. They are now back to produce an Evil Dead for today's audience that's high on the horror, gore, plot twists, and more from a screenplay written by Fede Alvarez and Rodo Sayagues with Diablo Cody. Executive producers are J.R. Young, Nathan Kahane, Joseph Drake, and Peter Schlessel.
The Evil Dead has been rated R for "strong bloody violence and gore, some sexual content and language. Look for it in theatres on April 5th, 2013.

In the much anticipated remake of the 1981 cult-hit horror film, five twenty-something friends become holed up in a remote cabin. When they discover a Book of the Dead, they unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival.

Until the mid-1970s, buildings usually were designed without any type of lighting control. In fact, many also were designed without heating systems, because of the enormous heat produced by 24-hour operation of indoor lighting systems. In hot climates, you can imagine how this added to the amount...

1. The month of April is honoring military children. Cheyenne has a great military presence with the Warren AFB and the national guard located here.
2. As a result, fathers and mothers are sent on deployment on a regular basis. Anytime a parent is away from his children for a long period of time it's hard for everyone. Particularly the kids.
3. I thought while we are honoring military children it would be a great time to share some parenting tips on how parents can help their kids deal with the separation of deployment.
1.Take Time to Talk and Listen!
•Talk as a family before, during and after a parent is sent away. I
may sound like a broken record but the best tool parents have is
talking and listening to each other.
• Be willing to share information with your children. The more
uniformed your children are the more they will look for
information from other sources that may not be as reliable.
Remember, to children no news is worse than bad news.
•Encourage your children to share their feelings with you. Help
them express their words through play, drawings, anything that
helps them open up.
• Talking about their feelings about being away from their Mom or
Dad not only helps them relieve their worries, but it helps you
know what they need and how you can help them.
2. Keep the Children in Contact With the Parent Who is Away
• Send letters, e-mails, pictures, etc. as often as you can. The
more connected the children feel the easier it is to deal with the
• Keep the deployed parent involved in family conversations and
decisions as much as possible.
3.Maintain Family Routine and Discipline
• This is a great time to make children feel they are important to
the family. Share the responsibility and let the children know
you trust them to help instead of feeling all the work is
dumped on them.
• Don't change your rules or discipline if possible. Children
need consistency and maintaining a routine will not only
help while one parent is gone but will help when the parent
4. Reassure the Children
• Let your children know their feelings are normal. We all are sad
when someone we care about isn't around.
• Keep a positive attitude and help the children feel they are safe
and cared for.
• Remind the children this is temporary and the date their parent
will return will come sooner than they think.
5. Take Care of Yourself
• Deployment is a stressful time for the family. Caring for yourself
during this time can help you be a better parent for your children.
• Eat right, Get enough sleep, and exercise.
• Keep others involved and reach out to old and new friends.
• Remind yourself that your doing a good job

Lesbians' Home Burned Down in Tennessee
September 16, 2010
Many of us who are LGBT have endured poor treatment — slights, looks, subtle hostilities. Few of us have our homes burned down because of it. This is what appears to have happened several days ago to Carol Ann and Laura Stutte, long-time life partners who have been together for 15 years and are raising a daughter in the small town of Vonore, Tennessee, just south of Knoxville.
This lesbian couple reported that they received numerous threats from a neighbor--including a threat to "kill them and burn down their house"--over the span of the five years they lived in the town. On September 4th, their house was burned down to the ground and their garage was spray painted with the word "queers". Gratefully Carol and Laura Stutte were away when the house burned. But they lost everything. Police have confirmed that this was a case of arson. Investigators are currently conducting interviews about the crime. Tennessee has a hate crime penalty enhancement law that includes property hate crimes motivated by sexual orientation – the federal hate crime statute does not include property crimes. HRC encourages state prosecutors to utilize this penalty enhancement when prosecuting the perpetrator(s). Find out more about this horrible hate crime and to learn how you can help the couple that has lost everything.

Is Lil Wayne's "Krazy" Dope, or Am I on Crazy Pills?
With some exceptions, most notably on "No Ceilings", it's been a steady decline for Lil Wayne since the "Carter III" days. There was a time when "is Wayne the best rapper alive?" was a serious question, but his name hasn't belonged in that Greatest Alive discussion in a minute. These are facts. I won't debate them. But this new "Krazy" though?
This gives me that same feeling when I had to listen to "A Milli" on repeat for 97 hours. That beat is some absolutely head banger shit - I was ready to go to bed before this dropped, and I'm currently more amped than this kid - and Weezy busts out some of that non-stop flow that was so unavoidable back in '09. Plus, I don't think there's a single groan-worthy punchline on the entire track. I mean, I'm not quite sure why his entire family calls him Eduardo, but whatever, it's still a decent line.
And it's not just "Krazy". This is combination with "Believe Me" and "D'usse"...it feels like a cliched question, but it also feels like maybe, just maybe, Lil Wayne is back and maybe, just maybe, "The Carter V" is going to end up being pretty goddamn dope.
Then again, there's always a solid chance that I'm taking crazy pills. As always, I'll have to rely on DJBooth Nation to set me straight. Let's give "Krazy" the "Heat Check" treatment...

January 10, 2014 - It's pretty but just a little bit too short to tie nicely after a wrap around. No way it is as long as the picture makes it look
December 14, 2013 - While we usually love products from this site, this purple scarf looks cheap & junky. And, while the fringe is shown long & pretty in the picture, this one's fringe is uneven & some is less than 1" long. While we usually love products from this site, we do not like the purple scarf. It looks cheap & junky. And, while the fringe is shown long & pretty in the picture, this one's fringe is uneven & some is less than 1" long. It was meant to be a gift, so we are really disappointed!
November 28, 2013 - I love the scarf! Nice and soft and I love the color I picked! It's warm yet breathable and very soft! Would get more, but the price went up $7. Almost double what I paid when I purchased it. Will definitely get more colors when they go on sale!

How to Truly Enjoy the World Cup From the Comfort of Your Home
One of the most exciting times in our lives are the World Cup tournaments that happen only once every four years. Because of their rarity, the entire world becomes engrossed in the tournament, and every game becomes an opportunity to stop what you're doing and watch international competition that is unmatched in any other sport or arena, even the Olympics. But unless you're a millionaire, you can't afford to go out to the bar to watch every game, there are so many games, particularly in the first round. So the next best thing is to turn your home into a haven for watching the World Cup, and invite your friends over to enjoy the tournament. Here's how to make sure your World Cup viewing is the best it can be.
1. Comfortable Chairs
You'll be leaping out of these chairs with every goal, but in the meantime, you'll need something comfortable. Make sure to have a lot of recliners for you and your friends. No one wants to sit on fold out chairs for hours on end, and if you spend some time planning ahead, you can often find perfectly fine if not a bit worn recliners on CraigsList for free or at least very cheap. It'll be fun to have that many recliners in your living room anyway, at least temporarily, and it'll make the viewing situation as comfortable as possible. It'll be best even to have the kind of recliners that have a foot rest that pops out. That offers the ultimate relaxation during what will no doubt be an intense World Cup.

Great Ideas to Make Your Man Cave The Coolest Cave in Town
Every man wants a cave, rather than all man caves are created equal. Some have a pretty terrible man cave that hardly is a den for sports and drinking watching. You do not want a paltry man cave, you want a man cave that men from all of over will envy and flock to. There are lots of good ideas and lots of bad ideas, and we're here to discuss some relatively inexpensive but fun ideas that can make your man cave be the best man cave that it can be. Go big or go home, we always say. A man cave is forever, whereas a horrible man cave is to be forgotten. Don't make that mistake.
1. Kegerator
You may think a kegerator is only an appliance of your dreams and you'll never have the capacity to afford one. Wrong you are. It's easier to get than you think if you are at are resourceful, though a kegerator is not only a crucial part of a good man cave. First, find an old refrigerator that someone is throwing away or selling for cheap. You should be able to select one online. Then, you install the spigot in the door in order that the keg sits in the refrigerator and the spigot simply comes out the front. You may drink fresh ice-cold beer all the day long up until you pass out watching highlights on SportsCenter, although not only is it fun that you caused it to be yourself. No man who sees a kegerator leaves unenvious!

9 Principles of Team Building
Introducing a passenger changes the dynamics of the relationship between motorcycle and rider. It affects suspension, handling and the amount of luggage you can carry. Over and above that, you've created a team. Group rides Larger teams form during group rides.
As soon as you have more than a solo rider on a motorcycle, effective relationships play an even greater role in creating a safe atmosphere that's fun for everyone. Although it takes commitment, work and discipline to create and manage, the effort is worth it.
People come and go in your lives, joining you for different parts of your journey. Each has something to teach you and something to contribute, whether it's difficult or not. Your challenge is to appreciate the gifts they bring without losing focus on where you're going.
9 Principles of Team Building
1. Unity of Purpose. Members join the group because they want to share the destination, journey or the group culture. Essential as a baseline, clarifying values and establishing goals at the outset, can avert trouble down the road. If you don't want to travel to the same destination as the others, or in the manner in which they ride, it's time to find another group. Or go solo.

Current Trends in Strategic Planning
"It is important for a control system to be linked to an organisations strategy", discuss.
What I aim to achieve in this article is to demonstrate why I feel it is important for a control system to be linked to an organisations overall strategy. In doing so, I will analyse the question and seek to challenge, and justify my views on the subject. I will attempt to draw from my own experiences and examples as supporting evidence.
The question presupposes that an organisation should have an overall strategy in the first place. The role of a strategy in simple terms is a broad statement about the organisations goals, and direction. This function provides the what? The purpose of strategy planning describes the how? This is a plan of action and activities for attainment of those organisational goals. Dell computers for example wanted to do something different to its competitors. Their strategy was to sell directly to the end user, circumventing the middlemen.
In a dynamic environment strategy must be adaptive and appropriate to the organisations needs. To remain competitive, companies develop strategies that "focus on core competencies" develop synergy and create value for customers.
There are a number of different strategies an organisation could adopt. What is important is that they select one that fits comfortably within their culture. The final element is a control system, which make up Strategy, Planning and Control systems.

Mistakes to Avoid in E-Commerce Platform Design
An online retail store can open gates to immense opportunities. By making use of an ecommerce platform your business can reach people all around the world in no time, without the cost of call centres and mails. Your online store can stay open round the clock without the assistance of any staff. Making use of all these opportunities can help you grow your business by leaps and bounds.
Ecommerce providers can give you many facilities that will help you enhance your online retail store. However, there are certain mistakes that are very common while designing e-commerce platform suitable for your business. Some of the common mistakes are:
• Since you are operating an online store your customer cannot hold the object or try it on before purchasing it. Therefore you need to provide your customer with as much information about the product as you can, so that they can easily take the decision after reading the product's description.
• Provide your customer with contact details and make them visible on your site. Incomplete contact details, or details that the customer cannot find easily will make you lose his trust. Make sure that all your details are clear so that your customers know who they are dealing with.
• Having a long paying process is also going to put off your customers. The more complicated and long the process is, the more likely it is that the customer will not complete the purchase.
• Requiring an account before a customer can complete his purchase is another hurdle in your customer's way. If they do not have an account on your site, let them purchase items as guests.
• E-commerce platforms should provide an efficient search engine on your site so that customers can easily find what they are looking for. Ask your e-commerce providers to add filters in your online retail store search engine to make it easier for your customers to search for the specific items that they are looking for.

"5jj.""Did she say 'I'm not going'?" OK, though many would put a comma after 'say'.
Did she say "I'm not going"? As before.
Did she ask "Am I going?" Similarly, many would put a comma after 'ask'. I'd end with ...going?"?...
"Did she ask 'Am I going?'" As before.
I'd rewrite it as "I'm happy that he did not participate in the conference".
(Comma outside the quotes at the end? I say 'yes' because this is a quote, not a dialogue.)You mean 'full stop/period'. Some would put a comma after 'as', and would put the full stop inside the quotes. I would put it outside, but I follow my own system, to which nobody appears to object.
When it was discovered that he was "besieged by apoplexy", his wife told him to take ten deep breaths.
(Comma outside?). Yes.
Joan classified him as a "flatulatory idiot".
(Good?) Only for people who know what 'flatulatory' means.
She called him a "schmuck", "schlimazel", "harebrained moron", and "purveyor of malicious quips".
"She called him a 'schmuck', 'schlimazel', 'harebrained moron', and 'purveyor of malicious quips'."
(All punctuation good?) Yes. She seems to be a little strange. I have never met anyone who would use all four of those terms. Actually, I have never met anyone who would use any of the last three.
He said, "Joan classified him as a 'flatulatory idiot'."
(Ending punctuation okay? I say yes.) Some would like this. I'd put the full stop outside the double inverted commas.
"When Joan classified him as a 'flatulatory idiot', he became enraged."
(Good?) Well, it's a pretty unlikely sentence, but the punctuation is OK.
Joe said that he had "more than enough BS for one day".
(Good?) OK.

Just in time for Easter, Scott Curtiss, 15, who has autism, picked up his cherry red Sun EZ-3 adaptive bike last Saturday, thanks to the wonderful readers of Patch and Southtown-Star.
Knowing that Scott's parents, Scott and Mikey, would have to dip into a trust fund they set up for their son's future care to buy him the expensive bike, family friend Lynn Church contacted Hal Honeymoon of Project Mobility in St. Charles to see if he couldn't help Scott get his own adaptive bike.
Scott has no center of balance and is unable to ride a regular bicycle. Honeyman made it possible for readers to send in donations for Scott's new ride, which cost $1,000.
Community High School Dist. 218 also helped get the word out to students and their families, where the Oak Lawn teen is enrolled in Shepard High School's autism program.
Now, Scott's family wants to "pay it forward." The Curtiss family has set up a progressive online fund on GoFundMe that will help other youths from the Oak Lawn Park District's special recreation program acquire adaptive bikes from Project Mobility. So far $5,788 toward their goal of $9,000 has been raised.
Honeyman, the founder of Project Mobility, became interested in adaptive cycling when his own son, Jacob, was born with cerebral palsy. He said it's hard for parents to keep up with their special needs' children's medical, educational and recreational costs.
"We made too much income to qualify for anything, and not enough to keep up," Honeyman said of his own family's situation.
Next in line in the progressive bike fund Josh Carroll, 18, of Burbank, who has cerebral palsy and seizure disorder. Josh attends Reavis High School, where he was recently inducted into the National Honor Society.
Due to Josh's cerebral palsy, he is unable to balance probably and use his left arm and leg adequately to ride two-wheeler.
Mikey Curtiss said that after children in the the park district's special recreation program get bikes, she wants to start working on getting adaptive rides for Scott's classmates at Shepard High School. The progressive fund will continue until all the youths that want one, have adaptive bikes.
Scott now has a riding buddy, his friend Anthony Tabascio, 17, who has been measured for hand-pedaled Cat Tran through Project Mobility. An anonymous donor picked up the costs for Anthony's bike after reading Donna Vickroy's moving story, "Every Kid Should Have A Bike," in Southtown-Star. (Thank-you, Ms. Vickroy.)
For Anthony's mom, Karen Tabascio, watching her son master his hand-pedaled Cat Tran was a thrill.
"It took him a little while to get going but once he did he didn't want to get off," Karen said. "To see a 17-year-old kid ride a bike for the first time, well, you can't put a price on that."
To help other local teens get adaptive bikes, make a donation today to Project Mobility on GoFundMe. Even a dollar can make a difference.

Comments about Imperial NFL Game Time Chair and Ottoman:
after waiting over 2 months for this chair, i dont think this chair was worth $650.00. the cushion doesnt seem to fit right on the chair. you can hear rattling inside the ottoman. who knows what is loose? you can see the staples near the seams when they should be underneath. you could remove them but the holes will show and fabric may hang loose. the legs should be screwed in but they arent and they are all loose. if this chair makes it thru 2 yrs of a high school student, i'll be lucky.
