Why malls won't drop their rents
Despite some brands closing down stores due to high rents, mall owners are likely to continue charging sky high prices as shoppers continue to visit them.
October 26, 2011 2:28 by Precious de Leon
A number of retailers are voting with their feet as they pull out of some of Dubai's hottest malls paces due to rising rent. The National reports this Wednesday that Saudi Arabia's biggest retailer, Retail Group Gulf, has closed more than 40 stores in Dubai and a sold a number of its franchise agreements to other retailers.
Majority owned by the Fawaz Alhokair Group, the company had stores in Dubai's biggest shopping centres, including Dubai Mall, Ibn Battuta and Dubai Festival City—most of which have rents that are as much as 20 percent higher than their competitors.
Retail Group Gulf distributes New Yorker, la Vie en Rose, Cortefiel and Club Monaco while Fawaz Alhokair also carries brands under other arms, such as Marks & Spencer, Zara, Gap and Promod in Saudi Arabia, where it holds 50 percent of the fashion segment.
So will this walkout faze mall owners and get them to lower prices? Most likely not. There is probably another retailer just waiting on wings for when just this situation happens.
And, if any of the listed malls are anything to go by, then we know the constant flock of tourists will be enough reason for these malls to command high rent.
In addition, resident shoppers are also voting with their feet and right now they're still visiting these same malls—regardless if it is out of convenience or preference for F&B and entertainment facilities rather than for the retail mix.
In The National article, Simon Marshall, chief executive of Fawaz Alhokair said that Dubai was now a "lose-lose" situation for many retailers as high rents damage margins as they are faced with two only choices: either low rent but low footfall or high footfall but astronomical rates.
Average retail rental rates this year across malls, community developments, boutiques and convenience stores were at an average of $512.90 per sqm while mall rents are at more than $749.32 per sqm, according to Jones Lang LaSalle.
While malls may not care about Saudi's biggest retailer retreating back home, it's should be a growing concern that their inflated rental rates are keeping away new, smaller retail brands in Dubai.
With only the bigger brands able afford rent, shoppers will be stuck with the same brands in all the shops. Where will brand variety come from? It'll be a safe bet it'll come from malls that are willing to make a healthy compromise with its retail tenants…yes, we men those who are a little more reasonable.
Burjuman and Al Ghurair Malls, both in the older part of Dubai, for example, are heavily investing in the expansion and refurbishment of their premises.
There is also burgeoning competition in Abu Dhabi. The Yas Mall, for example, has recently signed on five retail brands and has already covered 40 percent of its leasing space. One of the retailers is Kuwait-based MH Alshaya, which will bring Starbucks, H&M, Topshop, Next, Boots, and Pottery Barn and other brands to the mall.
We've got a strong feeling though that unless retailer-tenants stand together to get rents lower, malls with high footfall pretty much have the bull by the horns.

Motivation May Fuel Red Sox in 2013
If you're looking to gauge what the 2016 Red Sox will look like, the 2013 roster is not a good place to start.
GM Ben Cherington unexpectedly and creatively unloaded three lucrative long term contracts last August. Josh Beckett (signed through 2014), Adrian Gonzalez (signed through 2018), and Carl Crawford (signed through 2017) were suddenly no longer in the fold, leaving the Red Sox a roster bereft of talent but provided the organization with plenty of financial flexibility.
Improvement was undoubtedly needed, but they were not going to put their newfound fiscal flexibility in jeopardy this offseason.
That resulted in a revamped roster that includes several newly signed veterans who have experienced success in the past but are coming off disappointing seasons. Cherington exhibited discipline by staying away from the Josh Hamilton's and Zack Greinke's of the free agent world. Instead, he set his sights on players with less raw talent who were willing to accept shorter term deals–guys who have something to prove.
Acquisitions via trade and free agency, combined with a couple of team controlled, soon-to-be free agents, have left the Red Sox with several key players who will enter 2013 with a tremendous amount of — let's face it — money riding on this season.
And we all know that there is nothing wrong with a small fire being lit under a player, even if the flame is fueled by the dollar bill. In fact, that is often when the results are the most fruitful.
Jacoby Ellsbury is the most obvious and the most important player that falls into this category. The 29-year old center fielder recently agreed to a one-year deal worth $9MM, successfully avoiding arbitration during his final year of eligibility. Following the 2013 season, Ellsbury will be a free agent and quite an enigmatic one. We know the damage he inflicted on opposing pitchers in 2011, a year that saw him post a .321/.376./.552 line. Ellsbury was a hardware hoarder that year as he appeared in his first All-Star game, took home the Silver Slugger Award for his position, and nabbed his only Gold Glove. Do you want to make a case that he, not Justin Verlander, was the American League's Most Valuable Player? Good. Do it. You can certainly make a sound argument. Scott Boras definitely will when Ellsbury officially hits free agency.
But he has a lot to prove. Ellsbury's critics will point to 2010 and 2011 and claim he's injury prone. And if he's not injury prone, he is certainly a slow-as-molasses healer. It would be hard to debunk that theory. When healthy, the talented center fielder has the ability to carry a team for a long period of time. Barring any ailments during the spring, Ellsbury will enter 2013 with the opportunity to solidify himself as a legitimate candidate to receive a nine-figure deal in free agency. Should he spend a great deal of time on the disabled list or simply struggle to produce at the top of the Red Sox' lineup, it will further muddy the water on Ellsbury's value as a free agent. It is officially put up or shut up time.
Like Ellsbury, closer Joel Hanrahan is entering his final year of arbitration eligibility and is eyeing a big payday next offseason. Hanrahan was traded to the Red Sox from the Pirates earlier this winter in a swap that cleared some clutter on the 40-man roster for Boston, while giving Pittsburgh some salary relief. The power righty has already been given the keys to the car by manager John Farrell who swiftly and shrewdly made his decision to unseat Andrew Bailey as the closer apparent in favor of Hanrahan. That is good news for a player entering the most important season of his career. It also comes with added pressure. Bailey, as injury prone as he may be, is a proven commodity. He can close ballgames. If Hanrahan struggles early, Farrell may look to make a change. He is keenly aware of how badly the bullpen meltdowns of yesteryear affected the Red Sox in April. The pressure and spotlight are on Hanrahan. The stage is Boston. His response will dictate whether or not he receives the fat, multi-year contract offer he will undoubtedly seek next offseason.
Hanrahan's likely battery mate, Jarrod Saltalamacchia, will have plenty of motivation this season to build on his 2012 campaign. The soon-to-be 28-year old switch hitter had a breakout year of sorts last season, establishing himself a legitimate power hitting backstop. Saltalamacchia is hardly a player without warts, however. He managed to post a .288 on-base percentage in each of the past two seasons, a miserable, yet consistent feat. He strikes out too much and is starkly better when hitting from the left side of the plate. Despite his flaws, Saltalamacchia is a catcher who has pop, and that's valuable. If he can find a way to not fade as the season wears on, retain his power, and improve his on-base skills (even marginally), Saltalamacchia could be in line for a multi-year deal from a team following the season.
Saltalamacchia isn't the only player with catching experience on the Red Sox who will be looking to parlay a productive 2013 into a big contract next offseason. Last week, Mike Napoli officially signed a one-year deal worth $5MM, a far cry from the original three-year, $13MM agreement the two sides agreed to on December 3. The reason for the hold up and subsequent $34MM reduction in guarunteed salary? Avascular necrosis–a condition that destroys bone due to lack of blood supply to the specific area. It sounds bad, and it is. But it was caught early, and according to doctors, should not get worse. Still, it cost the 31-year old a ton of dough this offseason. Naturally, Napoli will look to respond with a productive 2013 and prove to clubs that he deserves a multi-year deal. He is in the right lineup and the right ballpark to bounce back.
Stephen Drew is looking to repair his stock as a free agent that, like Napoli, has been marred by injury. Drew, a Boras client, agreed to a one-year deal with the Red Sox that will pay him $9.5MM in 2013. Once a top level performer at his position, Drew, due to a vicious ankle injury that occurred in July of 2011 and forced him to miss the first three months of 2012, did not garner a great deal of interest in free agency. With a strong performance in 2013, Drew will almost certainly see more teams bid on his services next time around. As long as Drew leaves camp healthy, it is hard to envision a scenario where he will not be the Red Sox' Opening Day shortstop. He will have an opportunity — not unlike Adrian Beltre in 2010 — to capitalize on the ever-intense baseball environment in Boston. His ankle issues seem to be behind him. Health and productivity at a shallow position are all that stands between Drew and a much more memorable crack at free agency.
Cherington and the Red Sox are hoping to take advantage of the motivation that comes naturally with a player operating on a one-year deal. One-year pacts are essentially wagers entered into by both the player and the team. If the bet works out, the player almost always has a big payday waiting, and the team receives the benefit of a playoff run.
In 2013, the Red Sox will gladly go all in.

LA Media Sully Jack Sparrow's Good Name
It was a quintessential LA story. Late yesterday afternoon, media outlets including the LA Times and KTLA quickly picked up an LAPD alert of a fight between several Hollywood Blvd. superhero characters. Catwoman was said to have pepper sprayed Jack Sparrow, with an alien and another pirate also involved in the fracass.
Only the victim wasn't a Sparrow. After several hours of insane Twitter pick-up on this news, activity that pushed "Jack Sparrow" up the LA trending topics list, NBCLA reporters Samantha Tata and Kim Baldonado revealed that the target of an exasperated, harassed Catwoman was in fact an Ozzy Osbourne impersonator.
Should Ozzie be insulted that his likeness was mistaken for Captain Jack? Might Johnny Depp consider biting off the head of scurvy rat in a fifth Pirates flick, as a wink-wink? That's all tbd. But in the meantime, even though Tata and Baldonado had Sparrow in their original report (since updated), theirs was the only initial dispatch that had otherwise accurate info about the exact sequence of events. As opposed to the increasingly embellished misinformation being spread last night via social media.

With teams able to expand rosters Thursday, the Angels added four players from Triple-A Salt Lake -- left-handed reliever Horacio Ramirez, infielder Andrew Romine, first baseman Efren Navarro and outfielder Jeremy Moore.
Ramirez and Romine have been up earlier this season. When Navarro and Moore get into action with the Angels, they will become the 15th and 16th players to make their major-league debuts with the Angels over the past two seasons.
Navarro is considered an exceptional defensive first baseman. He also hit .317 with 12 home runs and 73 RBI at Salt Lake.
Moore is one of only two players in the PCL this year with double-digits in stolen bases (21), doubles (24), triples (a PCL-high 18) and home runs (15). Moore hit .298 in 113 games for Salt Lake.
In order to clear spots on the 40-man roster for Navarro and Moore, right-hander Matt Palmer and infielder Freddy Sandoval cleared waivers and were outrighted to Triple-A Salt Lake.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Protecting Livestock from Theft and Disease
There are many legal requirements that must be fulfilled each time there is movement of livestock in the state of Wyoming. These requirements differ based on the various types of movements and for different species. Historically, the laws regulating movement were put in place to protect individual producers and the livestock industry. Primarily, these laws served two purposes: to determine ownership of livestock, and to protect the industry against animal health concerns.These two purposes are just as important today. However, these requirements are also vitally important for many additional reasons. The animal agriculture industry today is one of the most mobile industries in the nation, as animals commonly travel thousands of miles in their lifetime. Each state has a legal mandate to regulate the importation of animals into its borders, and because of this, the State Veterinarian's office has a responsibility to assure Wyoming's trading partners in other states that our exported livestock entering their jurisdictions are healthy and free of infectious diseases. This is particularly important to Wyoming because of a lack of terminal processing facilities. Virtually all of the livestock raised or fed in Wyoming are exported. The state of Wyoming also has a duty to ensure that consumers have safe food products. These factors are the forces behind the movement requirements today. Additionally, the requirements are often a result of the need to respond to international markets. Keeping these markets open means the United States has to assure these trading partners that they are receiving a wholesome product. Historically, the biggest tool in identifying ownership and regulating the movement of livestock has been through the use of brands and the inspection of branded livestock. Branding livestock with a permanent and distinct symbol has been practiced for over 4,000 years. The recording of brands and brand inspection has been a requirement in Wyoming since territorial days. The original brands in Wyoming were issued by counties and since 1909 have been recorded and issued by the state of Wyoming. The Wyoming Livestock Board, pursuant to W.S. §11-18-103, was given authority for brand inspections, among other responsibilities. This ancient practice of branding remains one of the major tools Wyoming still uses today to regulate the requirement of county-to-county movement through brand inspection. See, W.S. § 11-20-101 et seq. pertaining to Brands. Originally, the requirement for county-to-county inspection was to ensure that livestock could be accounted for easily when they left their home range. Today, this requirement is also very important as a means to ensure certain health requirements are met prior to intrastate movement. This is extremely important because an outbreak of the disease brucellosis in 2003 caused Wyoming to be downgraded from a Brucellosis-Free State to a Brucellosis Class A Status state by the USDA/APHIS. Brucellosis is an infectious disease of significant economic impact that causes livestock and wildlife to abort their fetuses and also causes undulant fever in humans. This disease has cost producers and the state of Wyoming millions of dollars in lost productivity and eradication efforts. Nationwide, $3 billion have been spent to eliminate this disease.Another example occurred in the late summer of 2005. Wyoming experienced an outbreak of vesicular stomatitis, which is considered a foreign animal disease (FAD). Since the state already has county-to-county inspection requirements in place, this has been a valuable tool for managing and controlling livestock movement when dealing with these types of diseases by decreasing the potential exposure of this disease to areas of Wyoming not yet affected. See, W.S. §11-19-101 et seq. pertaining to Contagious and Infectious Diseases Among Livestock. One adverse legacy of the early county registration of brands is the existence of duplicate brands throughout the state. Duplicate brands have been grandfathered in the state system, although creating new duplicates is not allowed. This is because by statute, (W.S. §11-20-115 and W.S. §11-20-116) recorded brands are personal property with intrinsic value. If a brand is continuously recorded, it cannot be taken away. However, once a brand has been dropped from being registered, it is considered abandoned and can no longer be registered without a new application being submitted. If a brand is deemed to be a duplicate or close match to an existing brand, the brand will not be recorded. The existence of county-to-county brand inspection helps establish the origin or identity of animals branded with duplicate brands.The livestock producer today is still required to obtain a brand inspection for any of the three following circumstances:- County-to-county movement of livestock- Interstate movement of livestock- Change of ownership of livestockJust as in "old west times," these requirements help protect the industry from theft. In the early days of Wyoming's existence, the job of stock regulators and brand inspectors was to protect the livestock industry against thieves. There is a colorful past tied to these activities involving such notorious figures and events as Tom Horn and the Johnson County War. Many people think of cattle rustling and horse thieves as something out of the "old west" but the truth is, livestock theft remains a problem to this day. Today, livestock theft usually occurs in three ways: fraud, illegal butchering, and rustling. The livestock industry is one of the most heavily mortgaged industries in existence. Livestock are a commodity and are commonly used as collateral for millions of dollars in loans. There have been cases where the same livestock are fraudulently used as collateral multiple times. Often in these cases, the impact of the fraudulent activity runs in the millions of dollars. Brand inspection acts as a deterrent to this illegal activity by forcing people to verify the movement, number, and ownership of livestock. While not a common form of theft, illegal butchering (like the poaching of wildlife) is still a persistent problem. The brand inspection system combats this crime through the inspection of livestock prior to slaughter and before the sale of hides and pelts. Lastly, old-fashioned livestock rustling is still very much a concern. Rustling is a criminal charge found in W.S. §6-3-402. In today's market, cattle can be worth as much as $1,500 per head, and a good horse valued even more. Because livestock are moved in vehicles, a modern day rustler can be hundreds of miles away from the scene of the crime in a matter of hours. There were 55 investigations of livestock theft last year in Wyoming. Without trained inspectors and law enforcement officers verifying ownership, regulating the movement of livestock, and actively investigating and prosecuting theft cases, this problem could easily spiral out of control. This is why Wyoming law requires that a brand inspector verify ownership and issue title documents on every legal change of ownership of livestock.Enforcing the variety of livestock laws in the state of Wyoming is always challenging. While some of the main responsibilities of enforcing the livestock laws have not changed much from the "frontier era," the complex transformations in the modern market place have placed new burdens on state livestock officials. Still, the role of the livestock laws and regulations remain the same, "To protect the livestock industry from theft and disease." Dr. Dwayne C. Oldham is currently the State Veterinarian. He earned a Bachelor of Science from the University of Wyoming in 1985 and then earned his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Kansas State University in 1988. Prior to becoming the State Veterinarian, he had a private practice in New Mexico.Copyright © 2006 - Wyoming State Bar

4. Communication Policy
The Communication Paradox: The communication paradox of luxury marketing deals with the following problem:
|In contrast to mass-market brands, an increase in the luxury brand awareness does not necessarily lead to growing, but rather to decreasing demand.
This paradox refers to connoisseur brands, which are often bought by individualistic consumers in order to express their extraordinary lifestyle and to differentiate themselves from others (see above). With growing awareness, the brand attracts bandwagon-consumers, who consume products mainly because their role models do so. At the same time, this distracts the original consumers, whose major purchasing motive is to differentiate themselves from other (bandwagon) consumers (see also Leibenstein 1950, p. 183 et seqq.). Investments in brand awareness can therefore reduce product benefits for individualistic consumers. As a consequence, bandwagon consumers start turning away from the brand, because it does not promise them affiliation to an attractive reference group – the original consumers – any longer (Trommsdorff and Heine 2008a, p. 1674). In order not to risk their future success, connoisseur brands do not strive to increase the general awareness of their brand, but try hard to protect their customers from the people they like to differentiate themselves from by focusing their communication precisely to their target group and by keeping their brand a secret to others (Dubois 1992, p. 34). For this purpose, direct marketing and especially exclusive events are suitable for connoisseur brands. On the other hand, it is counterproductive for these brands to make advances to everyone and to emphasize the success of their sales, and therefore it is also a counter sales argument that a generally popular product is one that sells well. Accordingly, bulk mail or television advertising are not adequate marketing measures for connoisseur brands (Belz 1994, p. 648).
Figuer 1: Influencing the Associations about the Luxury Brand Characteristics by
segment-specific Marketing-mix Strategies
As star brands, on the other hand, strive for maximum brand awareness well beyond their actual target group, they employ much broader, sometimes even aggressive communication strategies (Kapferer and Bastien 2009b, p. 319). Typical marketing measures of star brands include advertising in glamour magazines and sponsoring.
Achieving Non-functional Associations
The communication policy impacts especially the symbolic dimension and aims to communicate the intended luxury brand personality. Many luxury fashion brands consider catwalk shows a vital communication tool for fostering their brand's prestige and dream value. Other typical communication tools of luxury brands include celebrity endorsement and PR (Fionda and Moore 2009, p. 358).
This section gave a short overview about how the segment-specific, marketing-mix strategies allow for the influencing of associations about the luxury brand characteristics, which is exemplified by this figure above. Mastering these marketing techniques is essential for luxury brands, because, as explained above, they only qualify as luxury brands if they actually succeed in evoking the constitutive associations in the minds of their target groups. Each of the marketing-mix instruments can be used to evoke associations about each of the major luxury brand characteristics. However, as shown in figure 1, some marketing instruments are more suitable for influencing associations about a specific characteristic than others. For instance, the product policy has a strong impact on quality and aesthetics, while the distribution policy especially influences the associations about rarity, but also about aesthetics and the brand personality.

This was a conversation with my friend Aimee...so...the "she" would be her...:-) Yes. I took pictures. It was GREAT! I had a blast!Ok..Lets see if I can break it down..This may be long.Ok, My Friend and I got there(The Odean) about 6pm. We stood inline for about half an hour, and then they let people who had VIP passes in. It was madness, they had all the fans stuck in this little room for the meet and greet..and I was stuck between two 14 year old girls..It was kinda wierd..because..I mean, Rooney swears in some of the songs...and ...it just didn't look right for them to be there..lol. After waiting for like 15 minutes, I got my shirt and CD signed...and I got to talk to Rob.Holy Crap...You think hes hot in pictures? You should see him...15 inches away from your face! Hes...Uh..amazing..We talked about His music..and I told him I was upset that He wasn't going to be in the next PD. He said that He really wanted to but He just couldn't take the role, because He wanted to stay in the music industry...So, after that..I actually did tell him that you and Skye and Lis said Hi..and He said "Tell them I said Hi back"....and....Then..I TOUCHED HIS HAIR! I asked "Hey, my friend wanted me to touch your hair", right before He left and He was like "Sure"..and He bent down...It smelled like Herbal Essence..and I sound like a teenybopper...and the concert was great too...I was kind of in awe during the whole thing..I got tons of pictures (Including ones of Me touching his hair)...*Sigh*It was great..

Two Years and Counting. Is Our Book Still Useful?Published by Cam December 9th, 2008 in The Book
One of the most frequent questions we get via email is "Your book is two years old. Is it any good now?" While only you can answer that question, we certainly think so. When we set out to write the book we put a lot of effort into the fundamentals of mapping. We covered the underlying concepts behind geocoding, the math involved in projections and distance calculations on a sphere, working with massive data sets and even interface design considerations.
But what about the API? Hasn't it changed… a lot? Yes it has, but very little of what we wrote about changed since we took great care to only write about what was already stable in version 2. Google has added lots of neat new features that make some of our techniques look like the "long way" but they still work. We also think that knowing the foundations will help you do some of the more complicated things that the API doesn't support with a single function call yet.
Basically, Google has added many new features (some of which we predicted in the book), but they haven't changed the core of the API very much (if at all). The only downside to this is that our book isn't much of a beginner book any more. Two years ago the techniques we listed were the only way, now they are really more like advanced topics and techniques.
The good news is that APress has released a new book on the Google Maps API that covers the new features and is primarily client-side javascript. This means that everyone who cringes at the thought of server-side stuff has a new book to pick up and new things to learn…
Beginning Google Maps Mashups with Mapplets, KML, and GeoRSS: From Novice to Professional by Sterling Udell
It was released mere weeks ago and is awaiting your reviews at Amazon. Congratulations to Sterling Udell on an excellent book and we hope that Amazon continues to pair our books as a bundle for years to come :).
There is also Jeff's second book on AdvancED DOM Scripting: Dynamic Web Design Techniques if you're interested in that. An excellent book that I did the technical review for. It's published by Friends of Ed, a sister company to APress.
Happy Holidays everyone.

i am reading this, and it gives a very good fundamental knowledge on Google Maps…
a good guide for the novice, thanks :D

We are currently working on a website that will rely heavily on Google Maps and multiple web services for data. While one of my partners is doing most of the interfacing portion, I have done a little myself, and we continue to use your book on a regular basis.

Is it posible to have draggable GMarkers with icon??
If so, how?
Jan 11th, 2009 at 9:38 am
It is not only the changes in the Google Api that makes people wonder about the book's usefullness. Both Ruby and Rails have seen upgrades; Ruby has evolved to 1.8.7 and Rails to 2.2. It could mean that the examples in the book need rework following the framework's upgrades.
If the authors update the examples in the book when needed (which they have done in the past through this blog), then the book is still a very good starting point to learn how to use GMaps - and get the most out of it. I like the book b/c it does not only cover beginning elements, which is why it stands out.
I am not familiar with PHP, but perhaps php has evolved as well.

Congratulations for the book, I had been thinking for a long time about adding an interactive map to my website and I'm finally doing it thanks to your book.
I am still at the test phase, at
I tried to implement the example you develop on chapter 3 of the book (I'm using the PHP+Ajax version), and it works… except that I cannot see new markers until I reload the page. I tried also changing zoom, pan but does not refresh.
Funny, isn't it? I hope it's not supposed to be like that. Is there any refresh / redraw functions I should be calling? I'd be very grateful if you could help with that.
Kind regards, and keep up the good work.

I am using this book and it gives excellent insight and examples in the architecture and code needed to build google maps.
Both books (Google Maps application with php & ajax) + (Google Maps Mashups) are great for reference along with the google maps help on their website.
Jul 18th, 2009 at 11:31 am
I'm using your book to get acquainted with google maps for a project I'm working on (www.buildingways.com/edlab.html). I've found it invaluable so far. You've all done a super good job.
I'm in the middle of it, and will be serving images with Google Maps. Thanks for all your help!
Nov 29th, 2009 at 1:26 pm
Ug, Yes the book is VERY useful,
Feb 6th, 2010 at 1:30 pm
This book is totally still helpful! It's 2010 and I continually refer to it for cool features and the segments on infowindow and handling large scale data. I am using Version 3 of the API and none of the code has been deprecated or "broke" from what I can tell. Really would love to see and update to the book featuring the latest and greatest, without a doubt its my definitive resource for Google Maps.

Coupon 101 Crash Course – How to start using coupons
Want to start couponing and saving money, but don't know where to begin? Here are some tips on how to start using coupons (and, if you are trying to find coupons, be sure to read this post: How To Find The Best Coupons Online):
First Step – How to Speak Coupon:
Wondering what "YMMV" means? You're not alone. If you love browsing the Internet to find the hottest coupon deals, you may have come across unfamiliar terms in blogs and other coupon sites. Here's a crash course in the language of coupons for the most widely used abbreviations; don't worry, there won'tbe a test!
YMMV: Your Mileage May Vary. This abbreviation actually has two meanings. One, it means exactly that – you may find the deal at one store but not another. And two, the deal may work depending on the manager of the store. Some stores do not have official coupon policies, so certain coupons and deals may not be approved by all managers.
BOGO, B1G1: Buy One, Get One Free, or, Buy One, Get One % OFF. This is sometimes also known as B1G1. Simply buy one item and get another of the same one for free. Did you know, though, that you don't always have to get both? Most stores will ring the item up at half price, which works to your benefit in the case that the store does not allow two coupons on a BOGO deal.
CAT or CIT: Not to be confused with the pet, but rather, a "catalina" … CIT stands for "coupon-at-till. This prints out separately with your receipt and is just like a coupon. These are linked to current promotions and triggered sometimes by your personal shopping habits. They come from manufacturers and start with a "5." These will have the store logo on them. However, if they say "Redeem at" or "Redeemable at," you can use them at any store (like the commissary); if they say "Redeemable only at," then, you can only redeem them at the store they came from.

All About eCoupons & mobile apps:
If you're looking for more ways to save and love signing up for store loyalty cards, you'll want to check out eCoupons, which are basically electronic coupons that you load onto store cards, or, after you go shopping, scan your receipt. No clipping, sorting or organizing required.
Not all stores have their own eCoupons, but some major companies online will allow you to download them to your card and/or smartphone. Check out these eCoupons and mobile coupon apps:
My personal preference is to add all the coupons you can to your cards and keep a running list (preferably by brand name and product) of the coupons you've selected. That way, as you're doing your regular coupon match-ups, you can add the eCoupons to your savings, and you won't forget what coupons are on your cards!
Double Coupons Can Double Your Savings:
Did you know that some grocery stores and major retailers will double your coupons? Harris Teeter doubles coupons every day with a face value of up to 99 cents! Other stores, such as Kmart, will have special double coupon events. That means that if you have a 25 cents off coupon, you'll actually save 50 cents after it's doubled. And, when paired with sales, you may walk away with free groceries.
Let's say Colgate toothpaste is on sale for 99 cents, and you have a 50 cent coupon. Because the coupon doubles (and if the store honors the face value of the coupon up to 99 cents), you'll actually save $1, making the toothpaste free.
Here are a few tips to make your "double coupon" trip successful:
- Most stores will not double a coupon with a face value of a $1 or more.
- Know what the store's "doubling" policy is.
- Some will double the face value of the coupon, but some may only "double" the face value of the coupon up to a certain amount.
- A 60 cents off coupon may only "double" up to $1.
- Know the difference before you plan your trip.
- There may be a limit to how many coupons can be doubled.
- Shop early on the day the sales begin.
- Plan ahead.
- Know when stores in your area are having double coupon days so you can be prepared!
- Do not try to double a coupon that clearly states "Do Not Double," even if the store doubles coupons.
- Bring the sales circular showing the double coupon event, in case the cashier is not aware.
- Always, always carry a copy of the stores coupon policy.That way if a cashier gives you a hard time, you can refer to it.
How to Organize Your Coupons:
How do you organize coupons? Do you keep all your coupon inserts in one big pile, or are they scattered throughout your house/purse/car?
When you're couponing and matching up the sales, the last thing you want is to spend valuable time hunting for coupons! That's why you need to get organized. Here are a few of my fave methods to do just that.
Envelopes: This is one of the original methods of coupon organization, and one that still is widely used. Simply buy the standard white letter envelopes, label, clip, sort and go. Beware – the envelopes will quickly tear and become flimsy, and you'll have to sort through each and every coupon to find the one you want.
The recipe box: This is another original tried-and-true method. Organize by brands, expiration dates, category and more. Simply flip to the section you need and pull out your coupons.
The good ol' coupon binder: Remember Trapper Keepers back in the day? (Did I just give away my age?) Well, now they have even better (and bigger) binders, such as Case-It (splurge), or a generic 3-inch binders (deal). Simply buy some plastic card protector sheets and a few divider sheets, and organize your coupons by section (food, personal, pet, etc). Or, get really extreme and organize by brand, complete with a zipper pouch with mini scissors, pens, notepad, and calculator.
Expandable accordion folders: You can use the mini ones to organize your clipped coupons (kind of like the recipe box), or you can buy the larger ones and organize your whole coupon inserts by date. Find a coupon you need? Refer to the inserts date, pull it out, and clip!
How to Shop For Free with Coupons:
One of the most fun things about coupons is getting to shop for "free," which I absolutely love to do! Avid couponers are always on the lookout for high-value coupons that will make their purchases free, or even profitable. That's how "extreme couponing" got its name.
For example, you spot Jiffy Peanut Butter on sale for $2, and you have a $2 Jiffy coupon. You scored yourself free peanut butter.
Even better, say you contacted Jiffy and they sent you a $3 off coupon – you just made $1 on your purchase (called "overage"). Stores will most likely not give you the difference back in cash, but rather apply the overage to other items in your cart. This is when you "get paid to shop," and how can you not like that? Think that you're ripping off the store? Nope. If you read the coupon's fine print, the manufacturer will reimburse the store for the value of the coupon, plus 8 cents. You may run into a few cashiers who are not trained with their company's coupon policy. Be polite and inform them of the policy and fine print, or talk to their manager.
When you find coupons that are valued at more than the price of the item, you can use a lot of the same coupons to buy products at no cost. Coupon overage can help you reduce the total grocery bill, saving hundreds, even thousands, of dollars every year.
How to Manage Your Stockpile:
Once you start couponing and really getting serious about it, you're going to have a stockpile that you can "shop" from … but what if it becomes too much (like when you have groceries crammed in closets and under beds and other odd areas of the house)?
When you stockpile, it's important to keep organized so you don't waste a good thing. Here are some quick tips on how to organize and actually use your great deals.
Create or find new ways to cook with all your groceries. A lot of times, you may find yourself with a food you'd never eat if your coupons hadn't given you overage at the store!
Organize by type and expiration date. That way you won't waste anything. Or, at least donate to a food bank or charity if you have too much of an item and you know you won't be able to use it before it expires.
Keep inventory, that way you don't keep buying the same thing when you already have plenty of it for a good while.
If you do find yourself stocking groceries and other items in weird places (bathroom cabinets, perhaps?), it may be time to rethink how you coupon. Maybe give yourself a break for a few months!
How to Find the Best Coupons:
These days, coupons are everywhere – in newspapers, magazines, online. With all the different coupon resources, it can be a bit overwhelming when you're looking for new coupons, especially when you're searching the Internet.
Here are a few ways to keep track of them so you'll never miss a great deal.
Bookmark your favorite coupon sites, such as Coupons.com, SmartSource.com and Redplum.com. Their coupons change frequently and usually are reset at the beginning of the month.
Some of the best coupons mentioned at the sites above are located under some of the larger cities, such as ZIP codes 30303 (Atlanta), 90210 (Beverly Hills), 12345 (Schenectady, N.Y.), 78225 (San Antonio, Texas), and many more.
Sign up for Facebook. The majority of brands now have their own Facebook page and often offer special coupons that can only be found there. Simply click on "Like" on the brand's page, and you'll be informed on your news feed when new coupons become available.
How to Use Store Coupons:
Did you know that you also can score some hot coupons right inside stores? Retailers will often display coupons next to the products, known as "tearpad" coupons. Keep your eye out for them and pay special attention; some may say "store" coupon, and some may say "manufacturer."
You'll want to collect these when you shop – even if you are not buying that particular product – because you can save them to pair with a sale, or use the manufacturer coupons at another store that is having a sale on that item.
Aside from tearpad coupons, you may see "blinkie" machines. These are small electronic devices that contain coupons and have a red light that blinks to catch your attention. A lot of times, these coupons come from SmartSource and are manufacturer coupons.
Another much larger electronic device is the coupon machine, where you scan your store's loyalty card and coupons actually print out instantly. Two popular stores that have these are CVS and Food Lion, for example.
Keep an eye out for coupons on products themselves. These are called "peelies," as they peel right off the product. I've seen quite a few high-value ones, and you'll want to read the fine print to see if you must buy two, or just one, of that item, to be able to use the coupon.
Hangtag coupons are found around the neck of the product. Most of the time, hangtags are "Try Me Free Rebate" forms, but sometimes you'll see a coupon on them.
Lastly, catalinas, which are coupons that print alongside the receipt printer after you check out, are good for your next purchase. Pay close attention to these, as they have a special phrase written on them, along with their store logo. If these coupons say "redeem at" or "redeemable at," you are free to use them at any retailer that will accept catalinas. However, if they say "redeemable only at," the catalina is treated like a store coupon. Two popular stores that accept catalinas are Walmart and the Commissary.
Beware of Fake Coupons:
Couponing has taken on a whole new look over recent years, thanks to frugal coupon blogs, television shows and (unfortunately) our economy.
It's now considered trendy and favorable to use them and create mountain-high coupon binders, toting them proudly through aisles. However, as with any new, popular trend, there are scam artists out there who churn up ways in which to profit themselves. And that means, as far as couponing goes, creating their own.
Using counterfeit coupons costs businesses millions of dollars every year. Take, for example, the 2009 Dorito coupon for free chips that circulated so much that it was nearly impossible to trace back to the coupon bandit who created it.
The last thing you want to do is (unknowingly) hand the cashier a fake coupon, have the register beep at you, and learn from the manager that it's phony – you could wind up in serious trouble. So, here are a few tips on how to spot a counterfeit coupon and avoid humiliation, as well as how to be an ethical couponer.
- Beware of printing coupons online for free products.
- The majority of the time, these types of coupons will be mailed to you by the manufacturer.
- Look for an expiration date on printable coupons. Coupons always will have an expiration date in the upper right-hand corner.
- There are a few rare paper coupons that do not have an expiration date (I've seen this with 3M products), but these usually are legit.
- Do not buy coupons online on sites such as eBay. While these sellers just charge a "clipping fee," it still is illegal to sell coupons.
- Read the coupon in its entirety and check the spelling.
- Legitimate coupons are scanned over and over for errors, even by the company's lawyers, so if you see a misspelling, that should raise a red flag.
- If you can see the coupon fully on your computer screen, clear as day, beware.
- Legitimate companies will not show the coupon while you print it (ex. coupons.com), or will disguise some of it, so as to prevent mass reproduction. Companies allot only so many coupons to be used during a certain timeframe.

How to Use a BOGO Free Coupon with a BOGO Free Sale:
Don't you just love all those Buy One, Get One Free (BOGO) deals? I do, knowing that I can pair them with coupons, especially a BOGO coupon and get both items free!
Sounds confusing, doesn't it? It's actually quite simple.
When stores advertise BOGO free deals, the stores are taking a loss on one of the products, meaning they are paying for the free one you get! And when you use a BOGO free coupon, the manufacturer is paying for you to get the free product, by reimbursing the store the value of the coupon, plus 8 cents. You pay for the first item, and get the other one free.
When you use a BOGO coupon with a BOGO sale, the store pays for the first item (their form of a "store" coupon), and the manufacturer pays for the second one, by reimbursing the store. So that means the store may actually profit, if not, break even, from the sale! And you walk away with both items for free! Drugstores are great examples for scoring these awesome deals!
Kind of sounds too good to be true, and in some cases, it is. Some stores do not allow stacking BOGO coupons on top of a BOGO sale to get both items free. If you want to use a BOGO coupon, you must pay for at least one item to get the other two items free (one free from the store BOGO sale, and the other free from the BOGO coupon, after paying for at least one item).
Other stores will ring up the items of a BOGO sale half off, which means you don't have to buy both products. You can buy one at half off, instead. Even better, if you have a BOGO coupon, you'll still pay half price for the first item, and get the second one free. You can even use a coupon on the free item if you have one. For example, if you have a $1 coupon, you can use it on the free item, and still use the BOGO coupon! Food Lion and Harris Teeter are just two local stores that have BOGO sales where items ring up at half price.
How To "Un-Extreme Coupon":
Maybe you've heard of it, maybe you've seen it: the show "Extreme Couponing" on TLC has garnered mixed emotions, of which the majority are negative. You may have asked, "Why do people need 50 cans of shaving cream?" Extreme couponers would answer, "Because they were free!"
Some people who appear on the show say that they donate to food banks and disaster relief efforts, but when they show someone stashing their frugal finds underneath their children's beds and in their closets, it brings new meaning to the term "extreme couponing." No offense to the people who have done this, but I believe children should have their own space, and not have to move toilet paper rolls out the way to find their toys. But if you find yourself in this situation, here are some "un-extreme couponing" tips to help you take a step back and catch your breath:
Buy or collect two or three Sunday papers, rather than 10 or 20. You'll still get an adrenaline rush snagging three free items as you would 20, plus save some time clipping coupons.
- Some coupons, such as P&G, have a limit of "four like coupons per transaction." This is not intended for you to go to your car and unload your groceries and then go back in the store to do another transaction and repeat this process two more times. Is it really worth the time and energy, unless you really are donating to those in need?
- Do not clear the shelves. How is this fair for someone who doesn't coupon who really is in dire need of deodorant?
- Clip coupons for items you and your family really do use on a regular basis. Sure, some people are picky, but there are some brands that just work better than the ones you could get for 10 cents with coupons, and not everyone in your family may agree on the same product.
- Be a coupon fairy. Have an extra coupon or two? Leave it next to the product at the store for the next person to use. Doesn't it feel good knowing that you helped someone save $5 on something they needed to buy, anyway?
- Don't let couponing consume you. Cut back the hours you spend couponing, and spend more time with family. And don't be afraid to splurge on yourself; after all that time you spend saving money, you deserve to treat yourself.

Backhauling small cells: Intracom Telecom
John Tenidis, Manager, Wireless Systems & Solutions, Intracom Telecom, talks to Telecoms.com at MWC2014 about the challenges mobile operators face when deploying small cell backhaul.
Rethinking backhaul
Any modern communications network is a complex architectural arrangement. By 2013 it's likely that a mobile network operator will have 2G, 3G and LTE operations running in parallel, with support infrastructure such as backhaul that has been updated and augmented over the years. As networks mature, they also evolve—the trend right now is to alleviate RAN congestion with smaller cells, increasing network density but also putting extra burden on the backhaul infrastructure. In order to keep pace, backhaul implementations also need to evolve.

How will my DSHS agency know I have elected hospice services?
Revised April 3, 2012
How will my DSHS agency know I have elected hospice services?
When a client elects hospice services, the hospice agency provides notification to the Medicaid Purchasing Administration (MPA) within five days of the election date using the 13-746 DSHS/ Medicaid hospice notification form. This includes the client's name, the effective date the client elected hospice services, the type of hospice (Medicare or Medicaid), the name of the hospice provider and the name of the facility if the client lives in a facility. This also includes the daily rate. (Note: Effective 7/1/2011 MPA will be known as the Healthcare Authority (HCA).
The hospice agency will provide a signed release of information for the client in order to facilitate the coordination of services between the agency and the community services office (CSO) or home and community services (HCS). The hospice agency checks for eligibility using the ProviderOne system. If the client is not on assistance, the provider will assist the client in submitting an application for assistance with the DSHS/Medicaid Hospice notification and release of information.
A hospice agency is responsible to verify a client's eligibility with the client or with the appropriate HCS office or the Hospice specialty unit. Once eligibility for medical coverage has been approved or denied, the approving office completes the DSHS section of the 13-746 form and faxes it back to the hospice agency.
When a client's hospice status changes, the hospice agency faxes a hospice notification form with the updated information to MPA/HCA to be scanned into the client's electronic record and indexed to the appropriate office. Examples include: the client revokes hospice services, the client discharges from a hospice facility or the clients dies. If a client transfers to a different hospice agency, both the old and the new providers are responsible to provide notification to MPA/HCA. Once clients do elect Hospice, covered drugs and items are limited under the Hospice program. Certain items are covered in the Hospice daily rate. (WAC 182-551-1210).
Revocation of services. (WAC182-551-1360) The Hospice provider is responsible to notify MPA/HCA of the revocation by completing and faxing a copy of the 13-746 DSHS/Medicaid hospice notification form. The Hospice provider is responsible to give the client a copy of the revocation statement and inform the client that the revocation statement must be presented with the client's current medical identification card when obtaining Medicaid covered services, supplies or both. Client's need to use this procedure until the department can remove Hospice coding out of the ProviderOne claims payment system.

|The Webster Bible (WBT)
|New International Version (NIV)
|1 And the LORD said to Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
|1 Then the LORD said to Moses, "See, I have made you like God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your prophet.
|2 Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land.
|2 You are to say everything I command you, and your brother Aaron is to tell Pharaoh to let the Israelites go out of his country.
|3 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
|3 But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and though I multiply my miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt,
|4 But Pharaoh shall not hearken to you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt, by great judgments.
|4 he will not listen to you. Then I will lay my hand on Egypt and with mighty acts of judgment I will bring out my divisions, my people the Israelites.
|5 And the Egyptians shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I stretch forth my hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.
|5 And the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I stretch out my hand against Egypt and bring the Israelites out of it."
|6 And Moses and Aaron did as the LORD commanded them, so did they.
|6 Moses and Aaron did just as the LORD commanded them.
|7 And Moses [was] eighty years old, and Aaron eighty and three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
|7 Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three when they spoke to Pharaoh.
|8 And the LORD spoke to Moses, and to Aaron, saying,
|8 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
|9 When Pharaoh shall speak to you, saying, Show a miracle for you: then thou shalt say to Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast [it] before Pharaoh, [and] it shall become a serpent.
|9 "When Pharaoh says to you, 'Perform a miracle,' then say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,' and it will become a snake."
|10 And Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded: And Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
|10 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the LORD commanded. Aaron threw his staff down in front of Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a snake.
|11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise-men, and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
|11 Pharaoh then summoned wise men and sorcerers, and the Egyptian magicians also did the same things by their secret arts:
|12 For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.
|12 Each one threw down his staff and it became a snake. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs.
|13 And he hardened Pharaoh's heart that he hearkened not to them; as the LORD had said.
|13 Yet Pharaoh's heart became hard and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.
|14 And the LORD said to Moses, Pharaoh's heart [is] hardened; he refuseth to let the people go.
|14 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is unyielding; he refuses to let the people go.
|15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goeth out to the water, and thou shalt stand by the river's brink against he cometh; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shalt thou take in thy hand.
|15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning as he goes out to the water. Wait on the bank of the Nile to meet him, and take in your hand the staff that was changed into a snake.
|16 And thou shalt say to him, The LORD God of the Hebrews hath sent me to thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and behold, hitherto thou wouldest not hear.
|16 Then say to him, 'The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to say to you: Let my people go, so that they may worship me in the desert. But until now you have not listened.
|17 Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that [is] in my hand upon the waters which [are] in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
|17 This is what the LORD says: By this you will know that I am the LORD: With the staff that is in my hand I will strike the water of the Nile, and it will be changed into blood.
|18 And the fish that [is] in the river shall die, and the river shall be offensive in smell; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river.
|18 The fish in the Nile will die, and the river will stink; the Egyptians will not be able to drink its water.' "
|19 And the LORD spoke to Moses, Say to Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thy hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may become blood: and [that] there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in [vessels of] wood, and in [vessels of] stone.
|19 The LORD said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Take your staff and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt--over the streams and canals, over the ponds and all the reservoirs'--and they will turn to blood. Blood will be everywhere in Egypt, even in the wooden buckets and stone jars."
|20 And Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD commanded; and he lifted up the rod and smote the waters that [were] in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that [were] in the river were turned into blood.
|20 Moses and Aaron did just as the LORD had commanded. He raised his staff in the presence of Pharaoh and his officials and struck the water of the Nile, and all the water was changed into blood.
|21 And the fish that [was] in the river died; and the river was offensive in smell, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.
|21 The fish in the Nile died, and the river smelled so bad that the Egyptians could not drink its water. Blood was everywhere in Egypt.
|22 And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did he hearken to them; as the LORD had said.
|22 But the Egyptian magicians did the same things by their secret arts, and Pharaoh's heart became hard; he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.
|23 And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he regard this also.
|23 Instead, he turned and went into his palace, and did not take even this to heart.
|24 And all the Egyptians digged round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.
|24 And all the Egyptians dug along the Nile to get drinking water, because they could not drink the water of the river.
|25 And seven days were fulfilled after that the LORD had smitten the river.
|25 Seven days passed after the LORD struck the Nile.

authors to discuss teen drinking on April 24th and April 26th
and son visiting Peoria area and suburban Chicago to share
their struggles with teen drinking
April 16, 2007
CONTACT: Ted Penesis (email@example.com)
CHICAGOWith prom season just around
the corner, the Illinois Liquor Control Commission (ILCC)
invites both parents and teens to hear mother Chris Volkmann
and her son, Toren, share their struggles with teen drinking.
They will be speaking at the following times and locations:
No reservations are necessary and the cost is FREE. Chris
and Toren are the authors of From Binge to Blackout,
a nationally respected book about the consequences of underage
drinking. Listen to the viewpoints of both mother and son
during this riveting, enlightening, and heartbreakingly true
story of a family that was able to confront the fear, pain,
and denial that threatened to destroy them-and survive the
epidemic of teenage drinking.
Attendees will learn invaluable facts and figures about the
growing epidemic of teen drinking, alcoholism, and what parents
can do to protect family and friends. Considered a rite of
passage, teenage drinking has skyrocketed to epidemic proportions,
fostering a generation of young adults whose lives are already
beginning to come apart under the strain of alcoholism.
These speaking engagements are being presented as part of
the ILCC's Dont Be Sorry campaign, which is funded
through a $100,000 traffic safety grant from the Illinois
Department of Transportation (IDOT). Dont Be Sorry
is designed to educate teens, parents, and liquor retailers
on the consequences of underage drinking and providing alcohol
to minors. (To order educational materials, visit www.DontBeSorry.org
on the web.)
During their April 23-26 visit, Chris and Toren will also
address middle school and high school students in Kendall,
Woodford, Carroll, Kane, and Whiteside counties. For more
information about this program, please visit www.bingetoblackout.com
or call 312-814-4802.

Even though the result was splendid. I fried them in the oven on 135 celsius for about 40 minutes. Stirring occasionally.

I did, by the way not go easy on the Maldon salt :)

The marinating teqnique is far better than other recipes I've tried earlier, most including boiling of the nuts.
For nut lovers it's also very nice to emphasise that cashew contain many vital vitamins that are difficult to obtain from other foods.
