School Supplies Aren't Cheap – How Much Do You Spend?
It seems like school just ended, but now we're just a few weeks away from the fall semester.
I have a 5-year old that will start kindergarten on August 26th, and we're planning to do lots of shopping for school supplies and new clothes in August. It's exciting in some ways to start school, but it's expensive!
School supply lists in Lufkin can run about $50, and in some surrounding cities the totals for notebooks, pencils, glue, and all of the other necessities can push closer to $100. That's not the new Hello Kitty shirts and fancy tennis shoes. That total only includes the classroom supplies.
There are some fundraisers happening now to try to get school supplies in the hands of kids who can't necessarily afford them, and that's helpful to many. Some school districts are also coming up with ways to offer an assist with the supplies, and other businesses and third parties also chip in.
KTRE says right now, Target and Walmart are offering several discounts for back-to-school shoppers and with Tax Free Weekend right around the corner, parents can expect a surge of coupons and discounts to be available.
The Texas Tax Free weekend is coming up August 9th through 11th. School supplies will not be taxed that weekend, and you'll be able to get clothing and shoes under $100 tax free.
One month til school starts! Now is the time to start getting ready.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1' Makes All of the Money and It's Still Not Enough
There's going to be a lot of blood and ink spilled across the internet on the subject of the opening weekend for 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1.' Yes, the third film in the series did open significantly lower than its predecessors. Yes, there are definitely people at Lionsgate wringing their hands and trying to figure out why the film opened below expectations. And yet, that opening weekend is still massive. It's three day total is larger than most movies ever have a chance to make in their entire runs. So, let's have some perspective as we dive into this week's top 10.
'Jurassic World' Teaser Promises to Deliver Our First Trailer on Thanksgiving Day
A few days ago, the YouTube page for Universal Spain posted memorable footage of the cup of water vibrating from 'Jurassic Park' as a teaser for 'Jurassic World,' which seemed pretty curious. But today brings our first official footage from 'Jurassic World' in the form of a far more awesome teaser for the trailer, which will hit the web on Thanksgiving day. If that's not something to be thankful for, what is?

in le creuset: pork belly oxtail soup
The latest addition to my kitchen is this lovely bright orange 6.75-qt. Dutch (French) oven from Le Creuset. Le Creuset is a sponsor of my cooking show, Four Senses, and after being surrounded by their pretty cookware on set during season 2 production, I wanted a piece for myself.
This is my first piece of Le Creuset. I've heard praises sung for their French ovens, so I was stoked to get one right in time for winter when stews and roasts rule the kitchen. I got mine in a bright orange, just to make sure I don't miss the thing sitting on my stove. Orange is also the color for inducing appetite and socialability (while blue suppresses them).

In case you haven't noticed, I dyed my hair darker over the weekend. I was trying to go back to my original dark brown hair color, but it ended up almost looking jet black. I still like it, though. However, it's definitely going to take me so me time to get used to this change in my physical appearance. I find myself not recognizing the girl that I see in the mirror, and I've been having to think more about what I wear, since I can easily end up looking "goth" if I don't add in enough color to my outfit. On this particular day, I was going to wear a black top, but realized that my hair blended right into it. Instead, I decided to wear shades of brown in order to add some contrast between my hair and my clothes. The good thing about having darker hair is that I can wear yellow/gold again, which I really couldn't do when my hair was lighter.
This weekend was good, even though all I did was study, bake and sleep. I really needed time to myself, especially since I was feeling a bit overwhelmed last week. I can be kind of introverted at times, and I was just not feeling being around other people. It also doesn't help that I'm stressed about taking the GRE on Tuesday. The good thing is that I'm learning how to check in with myself, and give myself the time and space that I need to get back to feeling my best. On the day that I was feeling the worst, I actually ended up taking an afternoon off from work and hanging out with my friend Anita, who was visiting from China. Being outside and hanging out with a friend helped to put me at ease and made me feel more positive. Speaking of listening to your body and mind, I think mine are telling me that I am going to need to schedule a getaway sometime in the next year, especially if I want to retain my sanity. We'll see where I end up!
As always, I hope that you had a fantastic weekend! Thank you so much for stopping by.

"Kate and Will have become the heirs to that glamour and affection, and we are all watching and wishing for them to live happier lives than our beloved Diana did," she said.
"We watched the wedding because my daughters wanted to see all the fanfare," she said.
"I feel bad. It's not going to be a normal childhood," she said.

Microsoft says rumored Halo 5: Guardians Nov. 10 release date is wrong
Despite a public tweet from a new 343 Industries employee with a countdown clock in the background, gamers will have to wait a bit longer than November 10 for the release of Halo 5: Guardians. "The recent rumors regarding the release date of Halo 5: Guardians are false," a Microsoft spokesperson recently said.
It shouldn't be too surprising to hear the Nov. 10 date is wrong, as the official beta - running at 1080p/60fps - won't even be available until December.
Now that Microsoft cleared up the issue, it's still unknown what the countdown clock in the background is being used for.
Hackers exploiting Ebola fear to compromise Internet users
A phishing email mimicking an official notice from the World Health Organization might be compromising users, with email recipients willingly tricked into opening a compromised email attachment. Several hundred organizations have reportedly received the phishing email, though it remains how many were successfully infected.
"It follows the standard, successful formula for most phishing campaigns," said Karl Sigler, Trustwave threat intelligence manager. Cybercriminals often exploit major international news stories - especially regarding natural disasters, national elections, or tragedies - and criminals know when to strike. The malware logs keystrokes, records sounds via webcam, and captures images.
Even if this initial phishing campaign was unsuccessful, with the amount of media Ebola has received, cybersecurity experts warn of future attacks. Meanwhile, WHO confirmed it does not send any type of correspondence directly to the public, only sending news releases to public health experts and journalists.
Apple and Nike teaming up for a 'stylish' wearable product
Apple and Nike are reportedly developing a new 'stylish' wearable product that will be able to integrate with electronics but still be fashionable. Additional details about the new device weren't disclosed just yet.
"I think it's going to be a big part of the future, absolutely," said Mark Parker, Nike CEO, in a recent interview with Bloomberg TV. "I think the form it takes is critical. You can go from the very geeky kind of wearables today - we've all seen some of those - to what I think you'll see in the future, things that are more stealth, more integrated, more stylish and more functional, yes,"
If true, this makes sense for both companies - along with Nike and Apple supporting large customer groups - Nike will be able to further benefit by teaming up with the technology giant again, ensuring it doesn't need to directly worry about hardware and software development.
Apple iTunes music sales slid 13% in 2014, as paid downloads slow
Apple saw iTunes music sales plunge 13 to 14 percent in 2013, as the music industry continues to be extremely fragile, according to recent reports. Music sales have been flat for a several years, and have dropped a whopping 50 percent since 2000, as listeners have embraced digital music files.
Music companies are struggling to convince listeners to drop free, ad-supported programs and sign up for monthly subscriptions - typically around $10 per month.
To compare, revenue of iTunes downloads slowed only 2.1 percent in 2013, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) said. However, ad-supported and subscription streaming services helped make up for the slight 2013 drop, while there was very little respite in 2014.
Point of sale malware attacks ramping up ahead of Christmas season
After one year of multiple high-profile data breaches targeting point of sale (POS) software used by retailers, millions of customers were at risk of potential credit card fraud. However, the retailers and banks also have endured a heavy financial burden, and this Christmas shopping season could bring a new round of cyber breaches, security experts warned.
"The threat actors are going to be burning the midnight oil trying to get credit card data going into the holiday season," said Brian Foster, chief technology of the Damballa security firm. "Retailers need to be prepared and diligent in the fourth quarter."
Target suffered a breach that led to 40 million customers having their debit and credit card data stolen, only two days before Black Friday in 2013. The BackOff malware has successfully breached more than 1,000 businesses and retailers, the Department of Homeland Security noted.
Google teams up with Oxford University for AI robotics research
Google has added some kick to its artificial intelligence research, hiring at least a half dozen researchers, while also partnering with Oxford University. The Silicon Valley company hopes to make Internet search intuitive by creating sub-atomic quantum chips that were modelled using the human brain. Standard computers today still rely on binary data, but quantum computing-based technologies would be able to encode data using the sub-atomic particles.
"We are thrilled to welcome these extremely talented machine learning researchers to the Google DeepMind team and are excited about the potential impact of the advances their research will bring," said Demis Hassabis, DeepMind co-founder and VP of Google engineering.
Google purchased DeepMind, which started as an AI company in Europe, with a focus on neuroscience-based machine learning systems and general-purpose learning algorithms. These partnerships will help create a strong foundation for future AI-based development, using skilled researchers to lend a hand.
Microsoft says 2.4M Xbox 360, Xbox One console sold last quarter
Microsoft said its first quarter Xbox sales increased 102 percent, totaling 2.4 million units, but didn't offer specific details on Xbox 360 and Xbox One sales. Despite the strong percentage boost, the Sony PlayStation 4 game console has dominated the Xbox One for nine straight months, according to NPD.
However, it appears Microsoft's incentive to include a free game title with new Xbox One purchases is working, as consumers look to save money anyway possible.
Meanwhile, the Xbox One was released to 28 new markets last quarter, and the company hopes to carry whatever momentum it has into the 2014 Christmas shopping season. Sony plans to release its sales earnings next week.
AMD drops the prices on their APUs, is also offering free games
Just weeks after cutting the prices on their Radeon GPUs, AMD is back to the price-cutting game with prices dropped on their APUs. Not only that, but the company is offering free games, too. Buy any APU between now and the end of the month, and AMD will offer you one of three games: Murdered: Soul Suspect, Thief, or Sniper Elite 3.
Just how hard are the price cuts? Well, AMD are slashing the prices of its top-end parts by 15-25%. The A10-7850K was $189 on NewEgg, but it is now $143, where the A10-7800 was $165, is now $133. These cuts have AMD competing at a better price point against Intel now, especially when it comes to Intel's Core i3 and Core i5 processors.
Airbnb valued at $13 billion, up from $10 billion earlier this year
According to people familiar with the matter, Airbnb's valuation is set to expand up to $13 billion, up from $10 billion earlier this year, reports CNBC.
The community-driven hospitality company, if valued at $13 billion, would come second only to Uber "in the rankings of Silicon Valley's most valuable private companies". Airbnb doesn't have a CEO, after Andrew Swain left last month, which should push out the IPO, if there was one any time soon, to sometime in 2015.
In order for Airbnb employees to cash in on some of their stock between now and the IPO, the company is in discussions with existing investors about allowing them to buy back tens of millions of dollars worth of shares, according to CNBC's sources. This cash injection won't be going into new capital for the company, but instead it would reportedly go to staff.
Microsoft posts record revenue, Surface sales are helping, a lot
Microsoft has posted a somewhat surprising quarterly financial report, which even exceeded analysts' expectations. The Redmond-based giant posted $5.48 billion in operating income, with $4.5 billion in net income from $23.2 billion in revenue.
When compared against the results from the same quarter of last year, Microsoft's revenue has increased by 255, but net income is down 14%. The company explains this slump of $1.14 billion because of "integration and restructuring expenses" after acquiring Nokia's Devices and Services business.
One of the bigger surprises, is that Microsoft's Surface division has performed extremely well. The Surface division posted an increase in revenue of a huge 127%, compared to the same three-month period from last year. The Surface Pro 3 has been successful for the company, with $908 million in revenue with positive gross margin, and will soon be Microsoft's next billion-dollar business. When it comes to the Lumia division at Microsoft, it sold 9.3 million handsets for the quarter, an increase of 6% on the same period of last year.

MATTHEWS FESTIVAL TEN CINEMAS Address: 10498 East Independence Boulevard
Matthews, NC 28105
This multiplex opened to the public on July 17,1987 under Cineplex Odeon/Plitt Southern Theatres. Carmike Cinemas took over this theatre in 1990 when they bought out all of the Cineplex Odeon's North Carolina theatres. Carmike Cinemas was the last chain to operate this theatre until its closing in 1995.
Once this theatre opens in January of 2015,it will offer a new and exciting venue for the movie going public in the Triangle. It will also muscle in on the stiff competition with the movie-going public against the heavy-hitters like AMC's Southpoint Mall Cinemas and Regal's Timberlyne 6,not to mention up the road at Carmike's Wynnsong Cinemas 15 for the battle of the movie-going public. Not only will it get the first-run blockbusters but also it will take a lot of the foreign and independent films too which mostly the Chelsea gets in Northern Chapel Hill.
It will be the first multiplex to be established in Chapel Hill since the opening of the Lumina Theatres at Southern Village in 2000,and the first since the closing of the Village Plaza Theatres off Elliott Road which closed in 2003.
The new multiplex may have a greater impact on the Chelsea Theatre which is across the street over at Timberlyne Shopping Center off Weaver Dairy Road. Not to mention in the article(11-19-13 Raleigh News and Observer) that this multiplex will play its share of independent and foreign films that usually get first-billing at the Chelsea.
But since you were saying that this theater's days are numbered,the Timberlyne 6 opened in 1993 and it is over 20 years old.
We'll see what happens when they opened this theatre. The Regal Timberlyne 6 will faced stiff competition not to mention this theatre will see its last days along with the Carmike Wynnsong 15 up the road in Durham which may be closing if this theater knocks out the competition.
Footnote: The Dillard's Department Store will be closing its doors forever on January 31,2014. It was the former Ivey's Department Store which opened at University Mall in 1973.
Once the Silverspot Cinema opens in January,2015, this will put a HUGE dent in the competition for movie-goers in the greater Durham-Chapel Hill area. It will basically muscled in on the competition of both AMC Theatres and Regal Cinemas along with Carmike Cinemas respectively. A movie theater is long overdue with a shot in the arm for a local mall that desperately needs that has been bringing shoppers in since University Mall opened its doors in 1973 as one of the largest indoor shopping centers in Chapel Hill.
The Silverspot Cinema will be the first multiplex movie theater in Chapel Hill since the opening of the Lumina at Southern Village in 2000,and the first multiplex since the closing of the Village Plaza Theatres located off Elliott Road at Kroger Plaza which closed in 2003.(Both the Lumina and the Village Plaza,and the Regal Timberlyne 6 are mentioned on the Cinema Treasures website along with other movie houses in Chapel Hill)
It will put the competition with Regal Timberlyne 6 in Northern Chapel Hill and also up the road in Durham at Carmike's Wynnsong Cinemas 15 for the eyeing of the movie-going public. Its been long overdue at just to let you know the Silverspot Cinemas will offer a variety of first-run blockbusters and independent/foreign releases.
NightHawk1: Carmike opened this theatre in 1996 as a slant-floor theater with 12 screens, and by the mid-2000's this theater upgraded to stadium seating and Dobly digital sound and expanded the concession stand. By 2004,it upgraded to digital projection and DTS sound.
Crawfernardo: During the 1960's and into the 1970's…The Park Terrace showed a lot of classic movies that got first-run billing in the Carolinas. Walt Disney's "Mary Poppins" was an exclusive engagement showing in the Carolinas where it played for an astounding 22 weeks!
It also got the reserved seat engagement showings too. The only showings in the Carolinas played first-run at Charlotte's Park Terrace Theater…….

Pinkbike Poll: What Do You Want to See in Videos?
No driving for the trailhead, no pulling the bike out of the truck, no reading a map, no putting goggles on, no spinning the crank backwards etc. All of these make me embarrassed to be a mountain biker. Take a cue from skate vids.

Kali Maraka XC Helmet - Review
G8teach, There is no evidence to suggest expensive helmets protect better than cheap ones. Often, the cheaper helmets protect better because they typically have more foam (less vents, heavier), and a rounder shape that allows the head to roll easier. All helmets are certified to a standard. Your time would be better spent lecturing people to wear helmets properly than to spend more.

Incredible You! - Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
Posted June 14, 2013
Nice, but...
The book carries Wayne Dyer's message to young children with good rhyme and reason. Examples and ways to attack those problems that can hold you back are explained simply, so that children will easily comnect with the message. There are even thought-provoking messages at the end of the boom that you can use to discuss with your children, or thatt older kids could ponder themselves, strengthening their need for self, which is a really nice touch. However, as an Atheist family, I found the references of God (specifically - not even a higher power or a spiritual feeling) irritating. It's difficult to find a book that can express moral values or finding strength within ourselves without dragging religon into it, and this is yet another example. It's especially sad that I'm not surprised. I guess this book will just facilitate the conversation about beliefs and science much earlier than I would have wished.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.

Samuel Blakemore has picked up papers to run for District 5 school board representative.
Mr. Blakemore is a retired city of Chattanooga fire marshal and is currently working for city court. He has a BS degree in organizational management and a master's in theology.
Mr. Blakemore is a native of Chattanooga and he is married with five children.
He said, "I think my years of service in the community and working in the fire department has allowed me to develop many important relationships. This is the key to getting things done in any environment.
"Increasing Student enrollment in the district five schools would be another way to get new construction projects going at our district five schools. If enrollment is down, then school officials will look the other way when it comes to spending new dollars at our schools.
"And, thirdly, I intend to push for total BEP funding from the state and I will ask the city to make good on its promise to be education friendly and try to identify what that means. I believe we can all work together for the common good of the school district."

Gadget Design: Battery Charging And Organizing Tower
Lifestyle 24 Views
A finalist at the Greener Gadgets Design Competition, this battery tower looks to be pretty convenient. The main problem with conventional battery chargers is that they often take up valuable outlet space. This design incorporates a much smaller downward plug that will free up much need outlets for other appliances.
Also acting like a straw dispenser, the charging tower stacks batteries from the top to bottom and charges them accordingly. Let's hope this design has some auto shut off features as well.

A critical mass of comments
An article subtitled Idle No More commenters could use some lessons in critical thinking attracted more than 1,615 comments.
"We need to do professional development in critical thinking and become critical thinkers ourselves."
Good advice; you should try heeding it sometime. When you 'teach' treaty and aboriginal rights, do you accept critical scrutiny as to whether or not treaty and aboriginal rights are consistent with the idea of equal rights and human equality?
You've accepted a raft of assumptions uncritically and adopted a position of labelling any opposition to those assumptions as being racist. It's pretty rich of you to decry racism while defending racial particularism and that in as cosmopolitan a society as has ever existed.
-- Grubfoot
There are a lot of inappropriate comments on these stories for sure. But too many legitimate criticisms of wrongdoing are met with the blanket reply of THAT'S RACIST.
When Bev Oda was bounced from cabinet, she didn't whine about racism. She took it on the chin. Politicians get criticized all the time -- it's part of the job. Yet too many times, Canadians are expected to overlook blatant misbehaviour on the part of band governments and councils for fear of being labelled racist. At some point a more sophisticated response than THAT'S RACIST is required from the aboriginal power structure.

What ridiculous, insulting nonsense. The author picks a handful of hateful comments out of a sea of valid objections to this "movement."
The author may not see a difference between these protests and the others he references, but most Canadians do. Nobody here is oppressed. Nobody's land was "stolen." Perhaps someone's ancestors made a bad deal; perhaps not. That is up for debate. Resorting to hysterical hyperbole is the tool of the weak-minded who have nothing to back up their arguments.
One could easily characterize the Idle No More movement as a call for more money from government. Let us be clear -- the failure of government to give a racial group as much money as they demand is NOT oppression.
What an idiot. We Canadians are angry, not racist. The Indians are being racist against we the taxpayers that have been supporting them.
THEY opened a big 'can of worms' that they will probably regret as support is being extinguished.
-- Boe65
The hardest yet most important part of reconciliation is forgiveness.
When anger is your driving force, rational thought is absent.
-- Sarah G
It would seem that the central point of this article is to make generalizations about the Canadian public's opinions on Idle No More and recommend changes to secondary school curriculum based on a handful of obviously stupid message-board posts? Is that not a classic example of the Fallacy of Composition?
-- mikethepinballclemens
I disagree that there is a racist attitude toward the First Nation's People. The negative response to the Idle No More movement has more to do with Canadian taxpayers seeing billions of dollars poured into Indian Affairs with Third World living condition results. Living on a reserve is not forced apartheid, but rather a cultural and personal choice. Canada is a free country and anyone can choose to work and live anywhere they want. You must first want to improve your situation through your own efforts and hard work.
-- schrop
If this article is considered critical thinking, I feel sorry for Mr. Henderson's students. They are being cheated out of an education. My opinion of SJR has been drastically lowered. Mr. Henderson's argument would have been slashed to ribbons by my first year philosophy prof. In addition to being factually inaccurate to the core, starting with the fact that nobody's land was stolen, the article simply does not make sense.

Reports that the government is likely to impose restrictions on portfolio investments by foreign institutional investors (FIIs) in the domestic pharmaceutical sector have been welcomed as a move that will help both the domestic industry and the Indian consumer, feel experts.
The Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion (DIPP) wants any increase in foreign institutional investment in the listed pharmaceutical companies beyond the 24 per cent threshold to first get permission from the Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB).
As things stand, the 24 per cent limit can be raised through a board resolution and special resolution of shareholders of the companies. India had opened its pharmaceutical sector to foreign direct investment (FDI) in 2002 but drew a distinction between Greenfield (new) projects, where still a 100 per cent automatic route exists and brownfield acquisitions.
Speaking to this correspondent, D.G. Shah, Secretary General, Indian Pharmaceutical Alliance (IPA), said, "It would certainly make a difference because some companies use FIIs as a vehicle for acquisition of controlling stake."
Karvy Stock Broking Research Head Rahul Sharma told The Hindu that were it to happen, the restrictions would be a "proactive measure by the government to protect not only the interests of the domestic industry but also of consumers as India still makes arguably the cheapest medicines in the world".
Fears still remain that if they acquire a significant share of the market, MNC pharma could end up dictating prices.
Indian companies still present an attractive case for acquisition. Typically, international players acquire the domestic companies for their established marketing and distribution networks or for brands and restricting brownfield acquisitions could encourage Greenfield projects.
More recently, Indians buying domestic assets have increased. Sun acquiring Ranbaxy and Torrent buying Elder Pharma are examples of this. Mr. Shah felt these cases "are more straight-forward as a MNC acquisition is fraught with complexity and takes much longer".
"Acquisitions must bring in technology and create assets. The change in ownership should not only benefit Indian promoters who stand to make a windfall but also the Indian public," Mr. Shah said.
