"Your life is as rich as the number of people you know."
That's just one token of wisdom Dave Golden, executive vice president and manager of Wells Fargo Commercial Banking's Mountain Division and immediate past chair of the Salt Lake Chamber Board of Governors, shared at the Capitol Club meeting Thursday morning. Golden shared ten lessons he's learned through his career that would be helpful for the group of executives.
Golden shared with the group his work history: he started in 1980 during a recession and managed to slip into First Security before a hiring freeze went into place. While saying every day is a new day, Golden says over the years, he's learned many lessons in how to succeed in business.
Here are ten things Dave Golden has learned along the way:
1- "If you don't know anything about accounting, you should," Golden says. People in business need fundamental accounting, including how to read a balance sheet. Accounting is the language of business. Golden says it's worth taking an online class or college course in accounting, no matter what industry you end up working in. Those who really have a handle on their finances tend to be most successful.
2- Build your network. Interacting face-to-face is critical in today's world. Golden encouraged everyone not to be a "distant manager" and to interact with everyone at each different level of a company.
"You have to know people and look them in the eye," says Golden.
That relationship is important, both with clients and colleagues. Carry your business card with you and set a goal–how many people will you connect with in a month? Three months? A year? Or even better, get involved on a committee, board or other group that helps the business community. Doing this can help build your network, and once you have that network, cultivate it, check in with your connections, see how they are and how you can help them beyond that first meeting.
"The thirty minutes before and after an event are infinitely more important than the event," Golden says, emphasizing the need to interact with others during that time.
3- Compete hard, but with class. Golden told the story of one of his "biggest rushes" from his youth: his dad charging into his bedroom telling him to "grab my gun." Golden's family raised sheep; dogs and wolves would attack the sheep and threaten the family's livelihoods, which were in the sheep. "I always viewed them as the competition," Golden says. He learned to compete hard because your competition is always right over your shoulder. Everyone is working to be better at something than someone else.
"That's our system. That is capitalism." So get strategic, push yourself to be better and maintain your professional edge.
4- Hire exceptional people. Without exceptional employees, you won't achieve exceptional results. "Average performance isn't going to fly for everyone," Golden says. When you find that talent, hold onto it, cultivate it however you can. But also know that, sometimes, the best people aren't always working for you.
5- Get good at delivering bad news. The ability to convey bad news without damaging a relationship makes you very valuable. Bad news has to be delivered from time to time. So smooth it over the best that you can, and introduce enough counter balance so it turns out okay.
6- Keep your eye on technology. Don't lose track of where technology is. It will leave you in the dust faster than you can imagine if you don't get on board and hold on. It is going to keep moving. Golden says it's fascinating to see the competitive difference between companies that adapt with the right technologies. "You have to be smart on the new things—because you might go the wrong way."
7- Find the balance between technical and people skills. You need both. You need that personality. You need the credibility that comes from knowing what you're doing. Wherever you lack, add strength so there is a balance where you can better move forward in your career.
8- Affect change instead of reacting to change. "We like comfort; human beings like the status quo," says Golden. "It's human nature that when someone throws something else on the table, it shifts the paradigm." Instead of avoiding changes, get on board and make the change work with what you have. If you don't it may hold you back. Be flexible and look at it as a new window of opportunity. It may be hard, but those are the times where you learn the most.
9- Ask for help if you need it. Don't think you have to do everything yourself; use your network. "Think to yourself, 'who can help out here?' Don't be afraid get help when you need it." Recognize when you're getting in too deep. In fact, you'll be regarded more highly if you get help. Golden says there is no shame in asking for help in the business world.
10- Give back. The business community provides you with a job to build your lifestyle. The strength of the business community is so important to the future and it relies on everyone. Do something in the community to help. Golden says giving back is "not just donations, but time and investment in helping promote business, to help it thrive and grow."
Golden says the apathy many people have fallen into over the past couple of decades won't cut it—we should be involved and encourage others to be so as well. And of course, Golden threw out the fact that while you're helping give back, you can build your network.
The tips Golden shared largely revolve around how getting to know people and recognizing how everyone can contribute as the main ways to succeed in today's business climate.

About Me Budget Shopper
Comments about Pressure Reducing Chair Cushion:
Bought this for my recliner and was disappointed. Not very cushy. Material is scratchy. Not generously sized at all. I have kept it and am using it but mostly just annoyed with myself for paying so much for a poorly executed item that was a good idea
Bottom LineNo, I would not recommend this to a friend

completely satisfied
By mary
from north georgia
It just plops onto the reliner chair in form fit, and you fall into it. Especially gives extra depth to the arms, so no hard surface to contend with.
Bottom LineYes, I would recommend this to a friend
Smaller than it looks
By Cinnamon

About Me Midrange Shopper
I got this for my husbands recliner ... the back only comes up 1/2 way ... the arm pads only come up 1/3 of the arms from the seat ... very disappointed ... picture very deceiving.
By DONNA
from WASAGA BEACH, ONTARIO CANADA
Not what I expected
By Barb
from Vinton, OH
The purpose that I purchased the chair cushion will not work. Therefore, I honestly cannot recommend it to anyone.
Not as pressure relieving as said
By thoughtful shopper
from Upstate NY not NYC.
If you don't fit between it it folds up under you.No where enough padding to make pressure it relieving. NOT thrilled with quality.liked the pattern waited for it on back order = diappointment
too thin and not solid padding
By patty
from Ohio
I had sat in one of these at the rest home/hospital. Waslike it supported you and wrapped around you/solidness,this one was thin both in material and in filling. I just kept it because it is too time consuming to send it back.
Not Quite What Expected
By Sandpiper
from Charlottesville, VA
Bought for my mother who is in a wheelchair. While pretty and cushion seemed good, the arms stood up instead of laying on the wheelchair arms. My mother actually slid out of the chair when I put the cushion in it. Do not recommend for wheelchairs.
Portable comfort
By jersey joan
from North Jersey
This product is soft and flexible and can be made to fit into wicker or plastic chairs on a deck or in the yard, or anywhere a little more cushioning is needed. It folds for easy storage.
perfect gift for wheelchair people
By bones
from Milford CT.
I have purchased 2 of these for friends who use wheelchairs. It really perks up their morale to be different and pretty. People smile when they see them sitting in flowers and cushons.

Damages Back For Second Season
John Griffiths, TV critic for US Weekly, writes FBLA:
Forget Frobisher. Patty Hewes (played by Glenn Close) just scored the most important win of her career.
Although an FX spokesperson is denying it, reliable sources are telling me that Damages has been picked up for a second, 13-episode season. A rather surprising turn of events given the show's recent ratings woes, but, hey, I'll take it!
Now, for the $500 million question: What the heck will Season 2 look like? Patty Hewes goes after Hostess for getting her hooked on Ho Hos, perhaps?

She scored outrageous success with her landmark internet series Venice, now Emmy-winning actress-producer Crystal Chappell (Guiding Light, The Bold and the Beautiful) is about to bring us another web potboiler, Beacon Hill. The series, which begins streaming March 5, is set against the cutthroat world of Massachusetts politics and features lots of lesbian steam and a cast of daytime greats, including Sarah Brown (General Hospital), Alicia Minshew and Ricky Paull Goldin (All My Children), Tina Sloan and Ron Raines (Guiding Light), Melissa Archer, Jessica Morris and John-Paul Lavoisier (One Life to Live), Scott Bryce (As the World Turns) and Louise Sorel (Days of Our Lives). TV Guide Magazine caught up with the über-busy Chappell to get an exclusive preview.

Cara making out with David? Griffin being bullied by Zach? If you feel like the Castillos are getting the short end of things as All My Children wraps its ABC run, you're not alone.
Before the network announced that it was pulling the home of La Lucci off the air after almost 42 years, Pine Valley's newest residents, a brother-sister team from Doctors Without Borders, were en route to love and happily ever after (for as long as that means on daytime TV). According to Jordi Vilasuso and Lindsay Hartley, who joined the cast as the Castillos last November, Cara was brought in as Jake's estranged wife and "soul mate" (not Tad's, and certainly not David's!), while Griffin was hatched as a love interest for Erica Kane's grieving daughter Kendall. But it was all so very short-lived!
Because of the axing — which spawned the resurrection of AMC superstars Dixie (Cady McClain) and Zach (Thorsten Kaye) — the Castillos have been reduced to being little more than appendages of resident villain David (Vincent Irizzary). What do Vilasuso and Hartley have to say about it? Plenty. The actors spoke with TVGuide.com Friday, just days before the series wrapped production entirely, about being hit with the cancellation curve ball, the Castillos' storyline switcheroo, and the online future of All My Children.
Lindsay Hartley was dumped by Days of Our Lives and her character, ex-undercover agent Arianna Hernandez, died last week from a hit and run. But shed no tears for this gal! She's moving from Salem to Pine Valley — with a stop along the way to battle Clark Kent. Starting December 8, Hartley will be seen on All My Children as ...

All My Children is about to get very political. On July 24, fan fave Beth Ehlers who recently fled from CBS' Guiding Light will join the ABC soap as Taylor McBride, an Army lieutenant fresh from a tour in Iraq. Shell be teamed once again with GL partner Ricky Paull Goldin, who defected from that troubled soap earlier this year. Clearly, ABC hopes to re-create their supercouple magic but don't expect Jake and Taylor to be another Gus and Harley."Like many great romances, this one will be born of conflict," says AMCs newly arrived head writer, Charles Pratt, Jr. "Jake and Taylors relationship, not unlike our current presidential campaign, is a clash of ideals the liberal versus the conservative. Taylor represents the modern warrior who is gung-ho military. For her, it's all about her country, her unit, her mission, not about the politics."Jake, on the other hand, spent years working in Africa with Doctors Without Borders and has a "complet...

Leprosy is occasionally known as Hansen's disease, after Armauer Hansen, the Norwegian physician who first identified the microorganism which causes the disease. Known and dreaded since biblical times because of the severe deformities that can occur, it was considered incurable until as recently as the 1940s.

Do the poor benefit from infectious disease programmes?
When interventions are planned, insufficient thought is given as to whether the poorest and most vulnerable members of society will benefit, according to the findings of a new review of the evidence. The reviewers call for more research to assess which infectious disease programmes benefit the poor and to identify the mechanisms that determine "pro-poor effectiveness".

Spring 2008
E 396L • Prosody
Course Description
The usual plan of this course is to focus during the first half of the semester on the iambic pentameter in its many forms and variations from the sixteenth century to the present, and in the second half on applications of this understanding of rhythm to the craft of free verse. Of special interest in free verse is the determination of the line and the line end in addition to the internal dynamics of stress.
This time around I would like to keep the same general format but fold into the metrical section a consideration of non-iambic metersstrong stress, anapestic, dactylic, Sapphic, dipodic, and so on. Tennyson and Swinburne experimented with mixed meters beyond the strict iambic, and though that development was cut short by Modernism, some poets and prosodists now see mixed meters as a way of creating a freer and more flexible metered poetry. For an understanding of strong-stress meter from Hopkins to the present, I will sketch the basic principles of medieval alliterative poetry, and I can work individually with students who have a background in Old or Middle English.
In addition to metrical theory, there will be much attention to practical prosody: scanning and analyzing short poems and discussing the metrical patterns of poems written by the class. Students will be asked to write poems and to memorize more canonical poems, in meter and in free verse.
Typical essays and books sections in the packets of reading are the following:
W.K. Wimsatt , Jr., and Monroe C. Beardsley, "The Concept of Meter: An Exercise in Abstraction," PMLA, 74 (1959), 585-98.
George R. Stewart, Jr. The Technique of English Verse (New York, 1930).
Paul Fussell ,Poetic Meter and Poetic Form, rev. ed. (New York, 1979).
Marjorie Perloff , Lucent and Inescapable Rhythms: Metrical 'Choice' and Historical Formation, in The Line in Postmodern Poetry, ed. R. J. Frank and H. M. Sayre ( Urbana , 1988), pp. 13-40.
Sandra M. Gilbert, Glass Joints: a Meditation on the Line, Ibid., pp. 41-50.

Optimus Popularis keyboard gets better looking, closer to reality
Art Lebedev's Optimus Maximus keyboard is pretty slick, but c'mon, let's be real: blowing over $2,000 on a keyboard is hard to justify. The little brother of the Maximus, the Popularis, is now up for pre-order, and it's just as good looking but way more affordable.
Like the Maximus, every single key on the Popularis keyboard is comprised of a 64x64 pixel OLED screen that you can customize to display whatever image you want, or even video at up to 10 frames per second. You won't get as many buttons on the Popularis as on the Maximus, but instead, you'll get an LCD strip between the number keys and function keys that acts as a secondary, programmable display.
Drool. Not bad for a budget keyboard from Art Lebedev, right? And it only costs about half as much as the Optimus Maximus, putting it at right around $1100 for all you cheapskates out there. In fact, you might as well order two of them so that you can use the first one as a doorstop or to prop up that wobbly table leg or something. Pre-orders are open now, and the keyboards should be shipping by the midle of next year.

365 Walker to Chifley, Makin and Evatt
Cablegram ILO20 LONDON, 5 November 1945, 4.50 p.m.
1. The Australian Government's election to the governing body [1] followed protracted negotiations with several blocs since a situation developed in which canvassing of individual votes could not affect the result. Latin Americans were determined to obtain four out of the eight vacancies and made a pact with the Scandinavian Group for mutual support of their nominee. The Middle East bloc decided to support Egypt and the Slav Group, Poland, and both made reciprocal agreements with the Latins and Scandinavians.
Australia's only hope was to obtain reciprocal support of all four groups.
2. Following your advice re Chile and Mexico [2] and knowing that Macgregor was approaching the Brazilian Government we initiated discussions through Ambassadors and Delegates of those Countries.
The Latins offered Reciprocal support if we could induce New Zealand and South Africa to vote for Latin nominees. New Zealand agreed, South Africa saw no reason not to vote for us but was lukewarm towards the Latins. The United Kingdom having at our request brought some pressure upon the Scandinavians and Egypt we then approached those groups jointly with the Latins and pledged New Zealand's vote with our own. The Slavs then sought Scandinavian and Latin support for Poland agreeing to sacrifice Yugoslavia. We accordingly negotiated similar agreement with Poland.
3. As a result of these negotiations only eight Governments were nominated, all of which were elected on the first ballot, namely Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Peru, Sweden, Egypt, Australia, Poland.
4. The Workers Group elected Monk [3] along with the United Kingdom, United States, French, Canadian, Swedish, Chinese and Mexican Delegates. The Employers Group has an arrangement for rotating representation which according to Oberg [4] affords satisfactory representation for Australia.

These pictures had me laughing to the point where my back hurt. Well, not that much, but enough for my face to hurt. LOL
Decided to get an early start as well, since I'm probably going to be too busy watching a crystal ball go up a pole and then come down again, or whatever it is they're supposed to be doing. Oh, and drinking peach lambic. Usually it's cherry, but Meijer didn't have any this year, so it's peach. Given that it was bought the same day the Krazy Glue was in order to fix Princess Peach's broken waist, there's almost a connection there, if you've been drinking enough of the lambic and/or are tired enough to find feeble wordplay funny.
I'll get there in a few hours, at least the tired part. Getting drunk really isn't my thing.
Anyway, in case I don't get to come back, happy new year everybody!

2. Help spread the word about the theme in other forums where you might be a regular (it's more fun with more people).

CORNING, N.Y. -- The former McClintock Hotel in Corning could soon receive Historic Landmark status. Thursday, the Historic Preservation Committee voted unanimously to recommend the building be designated as a historic landmark.
The city council will now have the opportunity to vote for the East Market Street property's eligibility for a tax incentive as part of the State Tax Law. Under the program, owners of landmarks who improve their properties are fully exempt from tax increases for five years. The exemption then decreases by 20 percent annually for another five years until it expires.
A chairman of the Historic Preservation Committee says that the 122 year old building, now owned by Krog Corporation of Orchard Park, deserves to be recognized.
"It has served the street in varying capacities, mostly as a hotel and bar for all those years. It's a very historic building in our community," said Thomas Dimitroff, Historic Preservation Committee Chairman.
The McClintock Hotel closed its doors in 2010 when former owner Dick West retired. The hotel was often frequented by factory workers, serving breakfast and drinks to workers whose shifts ended at 8 a.m.

Duffy is back with one of the most eagerly anticipated releases of the year. On November 29th the acclaimed British singer releases, Endlessly, the follow-up to the enormously successful debut album Rockferry.
Written and recorded in New York and London, over the past year, the new album has formed a unique partnership between veteran writer Albert Hammond and the singer herself. The legendry Albert Hammond is best known for writing the classic songs 'When I Need You', 'The Air That I Breathe' and 'To All The Girls I Loved Before'. Together they have written and produced the next chapter of Duffy's meteoric career.

Welsh songstress Aimee Duffy or as the world knows her just Duffy burst onto the scene with the Northern Soul inspired global smash hits 'Mercy' and 'Warwick Avenue'. No stage schools: The real deal.
With lazy plaudits instantly comparing her to legendary divas of soul past, it has taken the Grammy award winning album Rockferry to set Duffy's talent in its own orbit. Truth is Duffy forces comparison with the best, her vocals are stronger than her contemporaries, evoking passion and regret as only true legends of soul do.
Collaborating with celebrated producer and ex-Suede guitarist Bernard Butler, Duffy weaves her soaring heartfelt vocals over gloriously rich orchestration: Torch songs, ballads, and vivid studio sound abound. If Duffy eschews contemporary beats for classic arrangements it is in her search for something deeper than ephemeral pop: Time and time again she comes up trumps.
I don't like the word 'retro'. That suggests pastiche. 'Nostalgia' is fine though.Duffy

stufalufTransunion Up, but Experian Down
This happened a few weeks ago. The Experian report has gone below 600, what happened? My Transunion score has gone above 600 about mid way, not yet 650. I wonder why the change in the reports, Equifax has stayed the same. I am working toward having a better score by December. I don't know if all 3 will be 700 or better. Closer to 700 would be better than anything. What if at goes beyond 700, that would be even better? I am going to check my score in about a week.
I really don't have much on my report, majority of it is student loans. I am tired of having to borrow money for school. I have houses and my car on my report too. A few bills that have been paid, but are still on it. My report is going to go up. The bills that I can get taken care of I will. 6 years ago

MAC Studio Finish SPF 35 Concealer Reviews
I love this concealerI have been using this concealer for almost 3 years now and nothing compares to it. I have really dark circles under my eyes just like my father. Needless to say this stuff goes on smoothly to blend exactly to my skin tone. When I am not wearing it people always ask if I am tired. I would recommend this product to all who suffer from dark under eyes. — 5 years, 1 month agoMzWayne | 64 reviews

dried out quicklyAt first it was very creamy but soon after i bought it i felt texture changing. It started to get very dry until it turned pasty and was no longer blendable. :( — 3 years, 6 months agogaej19 | 129 reviews

One of the best I've tried!This concealer is really wonderful. I like to use an NW shade under my eyes to correct darkness and an NC to match the tone on the rest of my face. It works like a charm. I scoop a little out with a spatula and warm it on the back of my hand to make it more emollient and easier to blend. It is quite thick and can be a little dry over a blemish so I took a star off for that. This will truly give yo...read moreu full coverage. It hides thread veins, redness, darkness, and sallowness like a dream. I like to pat it on for maximum coverage. It's like the imperfection was never there! Just a word of caution, though. It can be hard to blend under the eyes unless you use a good eye cream and also a little goes a long way. If you apply too much and do not set it with a powder it will crease. This lasts fairly well even on my oily combo skin so long as I powder. Sometimes I use it as a foundation just in the areas I have redness and discoloration for a natural look. It can be sheered out very nicely and looks flawless. If you have bad dark circles like me then give this one a try. It covers scarring and pigmentation really well too. You can even erase a mole with this stuff. Shade matching couldn't be easier. Go to a counter and a makeup artist will match you or swatch samples on your jaw. — 1 year, 6 months agoanimakeupgrrl42 | 85 reviews
Best concealer everIt's so hard for me to find a concealer that actually matches my skin tone. They're usually all WAY too orange. I don't have this problem with this concealer at all. It covers EVERYTHING. Dark circles, redness, zits etc. It's also got nice pink undertones, so it doesn't look orange on my skin. It also blends amazingly and covers everything extremely well. I can get all this coverage with a super t...read moreiny amount. I've had it for about 3 months and it's less than a third gone.

Second choiceNot my favorite, but I do have this concealer on hand if I need a little coverage. I use "it cosmetics" Bye Bye Under Eye most of the time. But especially during the summer, I sometimes want something lighter. So I do use it and it works just fine during the summer. — 6 months, 4 weeks agoLaurenBd | 10 reviews

Something akin to a Buddhist theme park, the 180m high Phnom Suntuk is most easily visited as a half-day trip by moto from Kompong Thom (20,000 riel including waiting time). Conspicuous in the flat countryside, the hill is accessed by a wide road, indicative of how busy it gets on Sundays and public holidays. A steep staircase of 809 steps wends its way up the scrub-covered hill, squeezing past massive boulders, with occasional rest-stops and gaudy shrines where you can pause for breath. Traditional medicine vendors display their wares on the steps, mainly tree bark and twigs to be boiled up in water to produce multipurpose tonics and cure-alls. At the summit, the pagoda is a hotchpotch of garish statues and pavilions, mostly contemporary. Most alluring are the older Buddha images, many carved into the rock face around the hill, although no one can tell you when they were carved.
Near the vihara, a large overhanging rock creates a natural shrine with several small Buddha carvings, and there are more small shrines tucked away in crevices behind the rocky hillside. To the west, a narrow stony path leads part of the way down the hill to a collection of rock carvings, including an impressive reclining Buddha. Back at the foot of the hill, you might want to pause to sink a glass of sugar-cane juice or fill up on Khmer fare at the veritable village of food and drink stalls here. Heading back to Kompong Thom on NR6, you can stop off at the little village of Samnak where there are usually some small stone carvings to buy from local craftsmen (though small doesn't necessarily equate with light). Also in the village, is Santuk Silks – a silk enterprise run by Vietnam veteran, Bud Gibbons, where you can see silk worms munching on mulberry, watch spinners and weavers at work, and usually buy a scarf or two from the weavers.

Fitting It All Together
April 28, 2004
Historian's Notes
Oklahoma has an interesting outline. It's one of the states that I think anyone can pick out because of the shape. The way that those borders came into being is also interesting and this Almanac tells a small part of that story.
Information for this story came from a great variety of places, but mostly American history texts. Any text covering US history during the 1850's and 60's will discuss the Kansas Nebraska Act and this is where the information comes from for this Almanac.
Almanac Transcript
Fitting it all together this week on the Oklahoma Audio Almanac.
Hello, I'm Steven Knoche Kite.
It seems that when most territories, later to be states, formed or came together they did so as one intact unit, not so for Oklahoma. The territory of Oklahoma grew in fits and starts. Starting out as a rectangle in what is now the middle of the state, bits and chunks were added to the original center section. As the various tribal nations were one by one stripped of their land so the territory grew and changed shape, like some amorphous blob consuming the land around it. By the time residents of the territory of Oklahoma began clamoring for statehood the area looked somewhat as it does today.
One important piece of the Oklahoma puzzle, however, was missing. If you were to look at a map of Oklahoma before 1890 one thing would stand out as being gone, and that's the panhandle. Originally, the panhandle didn't belong to Oklahoma, it didn't belong to any state it literally was, "no mans land." As all of the territories in the region formed and took shape the panhandle was left out. This pattern of excluding the panhandle drew to a close in this week of 1890. It was on May 2nd 1890 that the Organic Act passed through the body of Congress adhering the panhandle forever to the territory of Oklahoma. The Organic Act is one of the most important pieces of legislation in the history of our state. In addition to finally answering the many questions surrounding the panhandle the act also set up the territories government allowing for a multitude of things to finally take shape. The Organic Act allowed for the creation of a governmental system, representation in congress, the formation of territorial law code and enforcement procedures, as well as other things basic to the creation of a territory and state. For more than a year the new settlers of Oklahoma territory were without any of these bureaucratic entities that we now take for granted. The inhabitants of the new territory were pleased, and I'm sure a bit relieved, to be now officially recognized by the powers-that-be in Washington DC.
The Organic Act putting all of the pieces together this week on the Almanac.
The Oklahoma Audio Almanac is a joint production of Oklahoma's Public Radio and the Oklahoma State University Library.

Shane Battier To Sign With Miami Heat

Miami Heat
MIAMI (CBSMiami.com) – Free agent forward Shane Battier announced Thursday morning on Twitter that he will sign with the Miami Heat on Friday.
"The lockout gave me lots of time to consider what was important to me at this stage of my life and career," Battier wrote on Twitter. "Over the last week, I've played out every scenario in my head over and over. It always came back to one thing for me: a winning role."
The free agent forward will sign for the mini-mid-level exception, which will be three years for a total of $9 million, according to CBS4's Jorge Sedano.
Battier will join the Heat and provide the team with the ability to space the floor and take the shooting pressure off of Dwyane Wade and LeBron James.
The former Memphis Grizzly and Houston Rocket is downright deadly from the corner, which is something the Heat had hoped Mike Miller would be before his injuries piled up.
Battier averages just fewer than 10 points per game and pulls down 4.5 rebounds and dish out two assists per game.
The former Duke Blue Devil is also downright deadly from behind the three-point-arc, where he shoots just less than 40 percent.
Battier's defense is also second-to-none and will only make the team's already stellar defensive style that much tougher to beat.
Battier is also playoff tested, having started 34 playoff games and played in 51 overall.
The only thing that happens now is what will happen to Mike Miller and does this take the Heat completely out of the market to land a decent starting center.

When all hope is lost, one legend lives on.
Robin of Locksley returns from defending King and country in the Holy Land to find a corrupt and changed Nottingham. The ruthless Sheriff of Nottingham is now in charge, crippling the poor with greedy taxes and severely punishing them for stealing a loaf of bread.
The ever-gallant Robin and his faithful, if slightly unenthusiastic, manservant Much are determined to fight for the good of these oppressed people. Aided by a gang of talented outlaws, Robin unties the gang against the Sheriff and his dastardly deeds. Will they succeed in thwarting injustice to relieve the poverty and hunger of the good people of Locksley?
A thrilling new retelling of a classic legend—packed with comedy, drama, action, adventure, romance and the occasional twists—this is Robin Hood for a new generation. (from the back of the boxset)
Season 1
Robin of Locksley heads home from the Crusades to find his people starving and brutalized under the tyrannical rule of the new Sheriff. Robin quickly discovers that the only way to reason with this Sheriff is with a bow and arrow—even if it means sacrificing his title and lands and consigning himself to a life in the forest.
Along with trusty companion Much, trickster Allan A Dale and passionate Will Scarlett, Robin teams up with forest outlaws Little John and Roy, leading his gang to help Nottingham's poor. His ally in Nottingham is Marian, the sweetheart he left behind when he left for the Crusades.
As the series progresses and the gang fights on, how long can Marian keep amorous Gisborne at bat, will the Sheriff succeed in cornering Robin Hood, and what will Robin make of his sinister truth behind Gisborne and the Sheriff's secret plotting? The state of England is rotten and Robin and the gang will learn that doing good deeds in Nottingham is a dangerous business indeed….
Season 2
The world is changing rapidly. The Sheriff of Nottingham has forged a pact with the black knights to kill King Richard. But first, the Sheriff wants Robin dead more than ever and sets about catching him with the help of his sister and others.
Marian and Edward are placed under house arrest in the castle after Gisborne burns their home to the ground. Now with Marian as castle spy, Robin and his gang can continue to help the people of Nottingham and stay one step ahead of the Sheriff of Gisborne. As events begin to turn in favor of the Sheriff, suspicion of a spy within Robin's gang becomes evident. Could this change the dynamic of the gang or tear them apart for good?
Season 3
Joining the Outlaw's fight against injustice is mysterious Brother Tuck and Kate, a feisty Locksley girl. Each episode Robin leads the battle for a free world, but it's tough when corruption and evil sweep the land.
The King is absent fighting in the Holy Land and while his throne is empty, his treacherous brother Prince John plots to seize it. The prince has his eye on Nottingham for his new capital and the country is on the brink of civil war. Can Robin save England for Richard and his people?
Tuck knows the power Robin has, but can he raise a people's army to follow him? Robin is both man and myth but what must he sacrifice to become the legend the nation needs? Loves are lost, lives are surrendered…
This is Robin Hood, but not as you know it. Take nothing for granted
My Thoughts:
The series will have you glued to the telly until you have finished every last episode. Brilliantly cast, scripted and directed this is like no other Robin Hood that I have seen. The characters are edgier, fresher, and not so outdated which drew me into the show. The plots are something that you normally would not have seen in other versions as well. Some lighter, some are dark and broody, and others I would never have seen coming but once I thought about the previous episodes, they did not seem too farfetched.
A look a few of my favorite characters:
Robin of Locksley
Robin is a bit of a ladies man, which we see in start of episode one. I must say that Jonas Armstrong does an amazing job at bringing Robin of Locksley to life without overly playing the role as some of the older versions of Robin Hood have done. For the show to work Robin had to be a likeable character and for me he was highly likable.
We see a spunkier version of Marian. She is also torn between doing what is right and doing what is best for the safety of her father. Marian is also caught between her anger at Robin for leaving her and Gisborne's obsession for her.
Guy of Gisborne
Early on, Gisborne sort of shows his hand by saying that he has seen Robin fight before although I wasn't quite sure what he was alluding to but I had my theories, which I must say I was right. I also noticed that there was a connection between Gisborne and Robin other than Marian, although I to wait until season 3 to find out exactly how deep it went. He was also constantly fighting with himself and I was hoping that he would eventually break free of the Sheriff's grasp.
Richard Armitage's portrayal of Guy of Gisborne for me stole the show.
Little John
Little John was the heart and soul of this series and I must say that he was one of my favorite characters.
Favorite Episodes from Season 1:
"Parent Hood"
"Turk Flu"
"Tattoo? What Tattoo?"
Favorite Episodes from Season 2:
"The Booby and the Beast"
"The Angel of Death"
"Treasure of the Nation"
Favorite Episodes from Season 3:

"Bad Blood"
"The Enemy of My Enemy"

Cancer Screening and Awareness
Patient Profile: Donna Bolkcom
"Many people put so much effort into exercising and eating well but let some of the most important things—like regular cancer screening—slip by. And early detection is so crucial to improving the chance of survival."
Donna Bolkcom, a native of Texas, and her husband Thomas moved to New York as newlyweds in 1969. He pursued a successful career on Wall Street while she worked in a related financial area. They raised two sons on the Upper East Side. After her husband died in 2000, Donna continued her lifelong interest in the arts and began gardening at the Conservatory Garden in Central Park.
In September 2005, Donna was diagnosed with breast cancer. After a routine mammogram indicated some suspicious micro calcifications, surgery revealed a tumor and an aggressive form of breast cancer. "I had been very conscientious about taking care of myself. Like many women who hear this diagnosis, I had a sense of disbelief that I'd become a statistic and was now facing a serious health crisis. As a single parent, telling my sons that I had cancer was a horrible moment. Thankfully, I could say that my cancer had been discovered at an early stage because of regular mammograms. I could face my cancer treatments without the burden of thinking this cancer could have been detected sooner."
After surgery, Donna followed a course of chemotherapy, plus radiation and a one-year Herceptin regimen designed to target her specific type of cancer. During this treatment, she participated in the breast cancer support group led by Marcelle Kaplan, RN at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell. She completed treatment in January 2007.
"The support group was such a valuable resource. We became an amazingly bonded group sharing knowledge and helping each other through some very tough times." Donna is a strong advocate for regular screening and ties it closely to a woman's responsibility both to herself and her loved ones.
"I think that for women over 40, mammograms should be near the top of their medical "to-do" list. Taking care of your health is something you owe not only to yourself but to your children, your spouse and everybody who cares about you."

Who's going to the Super Bowl? You are!
By J.C.
For years, top-notch commercials have been part of the Super Bowl tradition, keeping nearly 44 million Americans watching long after the gridiron excitement has fizzled. It's the day that the big players bring out the big guns, all hoping to be crowned advertising's most valuable player. Will the next champion be Pepsi, McDonald's, Coca-Cola . . . or your business?
Beginning September 1, Mail Boxes Etc. (MBE) launches its "See Your Small Business on the Super Bowl" talent search, in which one small business will win the chance to appear on a nationally televised commercial during Super Bowl XXXII. Sure to qualify as the Cinderella team of the day, the small business that best describes in 100 words or less how it best represents the entrepreneurial spirit in America will score a 10- to 20-second spot in the ad. The talent search is an "opportunity for small businesses to participarte in Super Bowl advertising, to have the type of exposure that mega-companies spend millions of dollars for," says MBE's president and COO James Amos.
Considering nearly half of all U.S. households tune into the game, "this is exposure [entrepreneurs] could only have dreamed of in the past," says Richard Hallabrin of MBE.
To get your shot at fame, fill out an entry form, found at participating MBE centers or at http://www.mbe.com , by October 31.

The book Southern Forages was first introduced in 1991 and has since gained wide recognition as a practical and reliable source of information on modern forage crop management. The Fourth Edition of Southern Forages, released in February, 2007, is an even more valuable book, with extensive chapter revisions, topic updates, and other improvements.
Authors of the book are Dr. Don Ball, Extension Agronomist/Alumni Professor, Auburn University; Dr. Carl Hoveland, Terrell Distinguished Professor, University of Georgia; and Dr. Garry Lacefield, Extension Agronomist/Professor, University of Kentucky.
Southern Forages is written for a wide range of audiences. It is used by livestock producers, by seed, equipment and fertilizer dealers, by Extension and conservation workers, and by teachers as a text for students learning about forages. More than 50 colleges and universities have included the book as a text or resource in forage classes. While the content is focused on forages for the southern U.S., many of the principles and species of plants discussed can be adapted to other regions.
The Fourth Edition of Southern Forages is a 6 x 9-inch paperback book containing 332 pages. It features more than 150 color photos, including over 60 close-up images of grasses and legumes.

LAS VEGAS (March 4, 2014) - In addition to the recently announced lightweight battle betweenRicardo "Dinamita" Alvarez (23-2-3, 13 KOs), older brother of Canelo and hard-hittingSergio "Yeyo" Thompson (28-3, 26 KOs), of Cancun, Mexico, the March 8 undercard for"TOE TO TOE: Canelo vs. Angulo" will feature five more can't-miss bouts for those in attendance at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
In a junior lightweight fight scheduled for 10 rounds, unbeaten Australian star "Wild" Will Tomlinson makes his United States debut against Texas' Jerry "The Corpus Christi Kid" Belmontes. Plus, two more rising stars from the 130-pound weight class face off when Mexico City's Francisco "El Bandido" Vargas battles Puerto Rico's Abner Cotto. 2012 U.S. Olympian Joseph "Jo-Jo" Diaz Jr. takes on Jovany "El Cepillo" Fuentes in an eight-round super bantamweight bout preceded by a six-round junior welterweight bout starring unbeatenKeandre Gibson against Antonio "Tony" Wong. In the opening match on March 8, Australian prospect Steve Lovett faces an opponent to be announced in a six-round light heavyweight contest.
In addition to the exciting main event on "TOE TO TOE: Canelo vs Angulo," there are three more fights on the SHOWTIME Pay-Per-View portion of the card: undefeated two-division world champion Leo "Terremoto" Santa Cruz (26-0-1, 15 KOs) will defend his WBC Super Bantamweight World Title against former three-time world champion Cristian "El Diamante" Mijares (48-7-2, 22 KOs); "King" Carlos Molina (22-5-2, 6 KOs) will risk his IBF Junior Middleweight Championship against undefeated Jermall Charlo (17-0, 13 KOs) and former two-time World Champion Jorge "Niño de Oro" Linares (35-3, 23 KOs) will take on exciting Japanese contender Nihito Arakawa (24-3-1, 16 KOs).
Tickets are on sale now and are priced at $600, $400, $200, $100, $50 and $25, not including applicable service charges and taxes, with a total ticket limit of 10 per person. To charge by phone with a major credit card, call Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000. Tickets also are available for purchase at www.mgmgrand.com or www.ticketmaster.com. Movie theater tickets are available at participating theater box offices and online at www.FathomEvents.com.
A native of Sydney, "Wild" Will Tomlinson (21-0-1, 12 KOs) was an amateur standout who competed in the 2007 World Championships before becoming a professional boxer in July 2008. Winner of several pro titles, including the Australian, New South Wales State, WBO Asia Pacific, WBO Oriental and IBO Inter-Continental belts, the 27-year-old won the vacant IBO super featherweight crown in November 2011 by defeating Alan Herrera. Tomlinson has successfully defended his title three times, most recently against Malcolm Klassen on May 16, 2013.
On a quest to get back to his winning ways after tough decision losses to fellow prospects Francisco Vargas and Andrew Cancio, Jerry "The Corpus Christi Kid" Belmontes (18-3, 5 KOs) has everything to gain this Saturday when he tackles Tomlinson. The exciting 25-year-old up-and-comer hopes he can get his year off to a rousing start with a victory in his first Las Vegas appearance since 2008.
A representative of the 2008 Mexican Olympic team, Francisco "El Bandido" Vargas (18-0-1, 13 KOs) stepped up in a big way in 2013, scoring victories over Ira Terry, Cristian Arrazola, Brandon Bennett and Jerry Belmontes that proved that he was ready to make his push for a world title in 2014. That push begins on March 8 against Abner Cotto.
Owner of 235 wins as an amateur, Caguas, Puerto Rico's Abner Cotto (17-1, 8 KOs) has done the family name proud ever since he put the gloves on. The cousin of Miguel and Jose Cotto, 26-year-old Abner has won all but one of his professional bouts, most recently stopping Daniel Ruiz in four rounds in September 2013. On Saturday, it's a pivotal meeting against Francisco "El Bandido" Vargas.
Joseph "Jo-Jo" Diaz Jr. (9-1, 6 KOs), of South El Monte, Calif., continues to impress with each victory and despite being a pro for less than a year, the 2012 U.S. Olympic boxing team member has shown poise way beyond his years. Fresh off a seventh-round technical knockout over Carlos Rodriguez last December, the 21-year-old will look to show the continuing evolution of his fight game against Bayamon, Puerto Rico's Jovany Fuentes (5-3, 4 KOs), a potent puncher who has won three of his last five bouts.
St. Louis' Keandre Gibson (8-0-1, 3 KOs) will look for his ninth win as a pro against Tijuana, Mexico's Antonio "Tony" Wong (12-6-1, 7 KOs). A 2006 National Golden Gloves champion and Junior Olympics Bronze medalist, the 23-year-old Gibson is seen as having world championship potential, but he will be put to the test by Wong.
In the opening bout of the card, 28-year-old New South Wales native, undefeated Steve Lovett(7-0, 5 KOs) puts his unblemished record on the line as he makes his United States debut against an opponent to be announced.
"TOE TO TOE: Canelo vs. Angulo," a 12-round super welterweight fight taking placeSaturday, March 8 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, is promoted by Golden Boy Promotions and Canelo Promotions and sponsored by Corona, AT&T and Casamigos Tequila.
