Huffing and puffing, Casey Wescott, keyboardist for Seattle's Fleet Foxes, makes it to the phone just minutes after sound check. Judging by his lack of breath, preparing for a show in Glasgow, Scotland, appears to be quite the job. Winded and apologetic, Wescott is eager to talk about his band and its tour; he just needs to catch his breath first.
"On this tour, I haven't been abiding by the Gregorian calendar or any sense of time other than light and dark," says Wescott, still panting.
After a few minutes, he composes himself slightly. Complete sentences are still a rarity, but at least his rate of speech approaches comprehensibility. Fleet Foxes is a band that describes its music as baroque, harmonic pop, so it's odd to be discussing such in a rapid, haphazard manner.
"We were driving this morning into Scotland from London, and it was the most gorgeous scenery I have ever witnessed," says Wescott, sounding like a high school kid on his first field trip. "Green, green fields full of sheep and goats and the different bird sounds."
Listening to Fleet Foxes' just-released eponymous debut, it's easy to understand Wescott's hyper-kinetic yet naturalistic demeanor. With influences ranging from British folk legends Fairport Convention to American folk/rock pioneers Buffalo Springfield, Fleet Foxes is definitely a band from another time: Its slow tempos and lush accompaniment, especially on songs such as "Sun It Rises" and "Ragged Wood," come across like pieces from a soundtrack to a PBS documentary on migrating fowl.
"I'm very excited about where this band is going to go from here," Wescott says. "There's an infinite amount of room in these songs for vocal arrangements."
Wescott proceeds to use the word "harmonization" about a dozen times as he tries (vainly) to explain the band's compositional processes. Suffice to say, what comes across on Fleet Foxes is a flair for detail and an intriguingly soft-spoken way of expressing regret and hope. Vocalist Robin Pecknold and guitarist Skye Skjelset are the band's focal points, but each of the five members contributes to the subdued atmospherics. Elements of alt-country merge gracefully with harmonies lifted respectfully from the Beach Boys and Simon and Garfunkel.
"Each of the melodies is distinct in that its creation is to highlight the strength of that singer's voice," Wescott says, sounding like a professor of music theory. Although it may sound complicated, what makes Fleet Foxes so endearing is the way a simple structure slowly expands into an epic, nearly symphonic collection of voices and instruments.
"Even when Robin does one of his solo numbers, all of the rest of us are in the back row practicing our harmonies," says Wescott. "We're just always singing."

Mr. Hindenburg Omen: Get Out Now, Before Market Crash
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The markets are rising on Tuesday, but that doesn't mean Mr. Hindenburg Omen, Jim Miekka, has changed his tune about exiting the markets ahead of a big dip.
In comments provided by Miekka to the Wall Street Journal for an article on Saturday, August 14 -- as the Hindenburg Omen ascended to its 15 minutes of market fame -- the creator of the Hindenburg Omen did not sound as alarmist as his Omen might have suggested. The technical analyst told the WSJ he was "dancing close to the door,' but not running for the exits.
Yet in the latest issue of Miekka's Sudbury Bull & Bear Report, a copy of which was provided to TheStreet and which was published two days after his interview with the WSJ, the headline is, "Our traffic light has changed to red, so you should exit the market."Miekka told TheStreet that it's not just the Hindenburg Omen, but several trends converging alongside the Hindenburg trigger, that suggest there will be a better buying opportunity for investors later on. A better buying opportunity for investors "later on" doesn't mean too long, though. For investors skeptical of Miekka's Hindenburg Omen, there will probably be a healthy dose of skepticism about the other negative indicators to which Miekka pointed in calling for investors to exit the market. Miekka's market bearishness is not just about German airships, but Presidential cycles and seasonality inherent in market doldrums. Mr. Hindenburg Omen cited the mid-point of the presidential election cycle and September being the worst month of the market statistically as supporting evidence for a correction, now that the Hindenburg Omen has been signaled. "If you look at the presidential cycle history and line up the lowest points in the market, they all occur in the fall," Miekka said. Miekka cited market performance of 1982, 1990, 1994, 1998 and 2002. "We're coming down to the best buying opportunity. The Hindenburg Omen occurring in mid-August and presenting a 30 day trading window puts it right in line with the Presidential low point," Mr. Hindenburg Omen added. Incidentally, Gallup just released its latest poll on President Obama's approval rating showing that the President's numbers had slipped to an all-time low.

With his new book, Profitable Growth is Everyone's Business, the coauthor of the international bestseller Execution has created the how-to guide for solving today's toughest business challenge: creating profitable growth that is organic, differentiated, and sustainable.
For many, growth is about "home runs"—the big bold idea, the next new thing, the product that will revolutionize the marketplace. While obviously attractive and lucrative, home runs don't happen every day and frequently come in cycles.
Products like Kevlar, Teflon, and the Dell business model for selling personal computers may be once-in-a-decade phenomena. A surer and more consistent path to profitable revenue growth is through "singles and doubles"—small day-to-day wins and adaptation to changes in the marketplace that build the foundation for substantially increasing revenues. The impact of singles and doubles can be huge. They are not only the basis for sustained revenue growth but, in fact, the foundation for home runs. Singles and doubles provide the discipline of execution, an absolute necessity for successfully bringing a breakthrough technology to market or implementing a new business model.
Inherent in this way of thinking is the revolutionary idea that growth is everyone's business—not solely the concern of the sales force or top management. Just as everyone participates in cost reduction, so must everyone be engaged in the growth agenda of the business. Every contact of each employee with a customer is an opportunity for revenue growth. That includes everyone from the people working in a company's call center handling customer inquiries and complaints to the CEO.
In this trailblazing book, Ram Charan provides the building blocks and tools that can put a business on the path to sustained, profitable growth. For more than twenty-five years, Ram Charan has been working day in and day out with companies around the world. The ideas he has developed for solving the profitable revenue growth dilemma facing many businesses are based on personally seeing what works in real time. These are ideas that have been tested across industries and that deliver results, and they can be put to use starting Monday morning.
"Over the years Ram Charan has created an unrivaled body of work to guide business leaders. In his latest book he once again finds new ways to teach enduring principles, as well as providing important new insights that are compelling, memorable, and most important, actionable. Ram's approach is developing a 'teachable point of view'...."

What is it about threats? What possesses half the Middle East to shout abuse all the time? First we have Ahmadinejad, one of the most crackpot presidents in the world, raving away about annihilating Israel. Then we have Shaul Mofaz, the deputy Israeli prime minister, telling the world that there would have to be attacks on Iran's nuclear facilities.
AP photo / Lawrence Jackson
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert issued a warning across the ocean to Iran during a visit to Washington Tuesday, urging the international community to convince Tehran that pursuing a nuclear weapons program would be a really, really bad idea.
France's foreign minister has issued an alarming warning over Iran's nuclear program: "We have to prepare for the worst, and the worst is war," Bernard Kouchner said. Those are troubling words coming from a recently elected conservative French government that has tried to buddy up to the White House. It makes us wonder what he knows that we don't.
The South Korean military fired warning shots at North Korean soldiers who may or may not have been attempting to fish at a stream in the demilitarized zone. The incident illustrates a rise in tensions between the two nations as North Korea prepares to conduct its first test of an atomic weapon.
House Speaker Dennis Hastert says he doesn't remember Rep. Tom Reynolds warning him about Mark Foley last spring. (via FireDogLake)
Incredible. In the literal sense of the word.
The U.S. Embassy has told India that it has information suggesting that terror attacks might occur in the political and economic capitals—Delhi and Mumbai. The Indian government has yet to receive any specific information. The warning comes only a month after more than 180 people were killed when a series of bombs exploded on a commuter train in Mumbai.
This Washington Post editorial cuts through the smokescreen of Bush's Katrina apologists.
Confidential video footage obtained by the Associated Press proves that federal officials warned Bush that Hurricane Katrina could breach levees and cause a tidal wave of disaster.
Bush now says he welcomes a hearing on domestic spying—while again warning Americans to watch what they say. | story

REVIEW - Illamasqua 'Apocalips' Lipstick
In theory, since teal is the opposite to orange-red on the colour wheel, our eyes should accept it as an equally normal shade on the lips - according to Alex Box, anyway. An intriguing theory and I love where it's coming from but I'm afraid I don't accept it! Teal is going to stand out as something unique a mile away - which is why 'Apocalips' is special in the first place! Who decided red was a 'normal' shade for lips, anyway? Why should teal be any different? Stars on black and white films actually used to wear teal lipstick for shooting - apparently it showed up the best lip colour on screen!
Available online and from Selfridges stores at £15.50 for 4g of product.
(P.S) A little birdy told me that Illamasqua will also be releasing a NEON BRIGHT pink lipstick and another red soon - keep your eyes peeled!

You know, at least with respect to my eyes, Alex was totally right. I'm looking at these pictures of you and thinking "yep, totally need that! look, it's so wearable!" It might just be that your teal hair is helping, or my brain is completely fried and doesn't care about social norms anymore, haha.

I paid a $750 judgement against me from 11/2012.
I never remembered being served, so I called and asked the court clerk to e-mail me the signature of whoever signed for it when the summons came to my house. She e-mailed it to me, and I realized it was my cousin who was visiting me at the time from Europe. She NEVER told me about it and never gave it to me! She left 3 days after.... I don't even know what she did with the summons. I called her as soon as I found out in France, but she doesn't remember.
But I went ahead and paid for the judgement, because I recognized the debt as from an old cell phone account I had--but I was wondering, does that give me grounds to file a motion to vacate? Or do I just suck it up and deal with it on my report until 2019?
It would depend on what the service procedures are in your state.
Before taking that route, which requires showing of actual error due to lack of proper service, I suggest first checking out your state statutes/court procedure for vacating a judgment based on its satisfaction.

A Texas Department of Public Safety trooper said the man was unconscious for 'medical reasons' and not from accident injuries. The man left the roadway and ran into a ditch, damaging the van.
The man was transferred to the College Station Medical Center after he had been taken to the Scott and White Hospital in Brenham. An EMS crew member could only say the man may have had a seizure or some other medical condition that made him lose consciousness.

More signs that Sony is about to launch a new ereader model
August 1, 2011 | 11:13 am
By Chris Walters
Nate Hoffelder at The Digital Reader has been tracking signs of new ereader activity coming from Sony, and despite the company disavowing its own executive's slip-up it looks like a new device is on the way. The first clue is that a device called the PRS-T1 Digital Book Reader was found last week on the FCC website. The second clue is that several ebook models are showing up as out of stock or discontinued on the Sony Style store.

Industry Business News
Interview with Francis Alizer from AFI Company
What is your function and your business sector? I am the manager of AFI since it started in 1993. Our staff includes ten employees, and we work in the industrial supplies sector as well as providing services to the building trade, companies and communities. Who are your clients and suppliers? Our clients are primarily companies from the construction industry and the industrial sector. In both cases, these may be big companies with subsidiaries as well as more local and regional SMEs, or individual tradespeople. Our suppliers are various tools suppliers and makers in Europe. At the moment we use 1094 different suppliers. What are your main assets in face of the competition? Service. We are more focused on service needs and on the solutions we deliver to the client than on the product per se. We try to determine what will best meet the client's need, we examine the bill of specifications, we check that the request duly corresponds with his needs and we attempt to find a solution satisfactory to everybody. Within your current activity, what is the initiative or launch that you're the most proud of? Products I develop for the nuclear power industry. These are products used in the transport of TFA equipment. Actually, we're at the beginning of a deconstruction phase of nuclear power, but one needs to know that this phase will last 150 years and that it involves a lot of trades and business sectors, including ours. How do you keep your customers happy? Fast logistics, a quick reactivity time and stock. We have increased our stock by 35%, and we have also developed a retail website at the same time to make our e-commerce debut. Which complementary services do you propose alongside your products? We propose a range of services and support to the client depending on his specific needs. Thanks to our network, we are able to support clients who sometimes haven't a lot of representatives, if at all.

The only foundation that sticks to my oily skin, comes in a shade that matches me (nw10), covers redness (i'm irish), covers wet eczema (I have severe eczema breakouts around my eyes), covers acne (cystic acne), and doesn't break me out. people compliment my skin when i wear this. I love the smell, i love the satin/matte finish, i love the lasting power (i use it with the blot powder), i love love love this. I finally have confidence that i don't look like a greasy red tomato. I used makeup forever mat velvet and it didn't work for me at all and i don't know why!! This one though omg i love it
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
NC30. With my yellow Asian skin, I've been looking for a foundation that doesn't make it look freakishly orange, and I believe I've found my HG. . I wear it on top of primer and apply with my fingers.
It has a matte texture, which is great with my oily/combination skin. It's also quite opaque and gives beautiful coverage. I have a lot of acne discolorations on my cheeks (as well as some current acne on my chin) and this covers them well. It lasts all day.
As for the container, it comes in a glass bottle with a sturdy screw-on top. I wish I didn't have to buy the pump separately - I recommend you do so in order to save product.
I have SUPER OILY SKIN! This foundation made me produce even more oil which made me look extremely cakey :( the worst part is that it broke me out. I hate this product. Still looking for an actual mattifying foundation that is a reasonable cost.
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is my favorite foundation! I have tried others but none work as well as this on my acne prone combination skin. It gives me full coverage on my discoloration, but isn't too heavy. Gives an excellent matte finish, far underrated on this site! Great for combo/oily skin! must have! only downside is the packaging, but a little of this goes a long way
I've been using this foundation for around 3 years now. I've got blemishes, freckles and what not on my skin I also have combination skin. I think this is the best foundation for combination skin as when applied it makes the skin look matte and doesn't make me look like I'm sweating. I think its amazing to cover up marks and really does even out the skin.
The shade I use is NC40. This is the perfect shade because it completely matches my skintone.
I would recommend this foundation to people with oily skin and combination skin.
My fav foundation for a flawless look. Has been my go to foundation for years now. For a night out with a setting powder this lasts and looks great in pics. It's okay for oily skin but need to blot or touch up every 5 hours. Dewy finish. Doesn't cause me to have break outs always a bonus.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This has been my favourite foundation for years. It is perfect for my oily, acne-prone skin, as it helps control the oil and has full coverage to cover any acne. Also does not break me out, blends flawlessly, and have a great range of colours (I wear NW10). I could not rave any more about this foundation, it's simply perfect. I have never found a foundation that's beat it for me, and I will continue to use it for years!
it is ok .... great coverage !! will cover anything basically
But I noticed I did break out a little bit .
revlon colourstay is a much better option !!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Worst foundation I've ever used in my life. It broke me out AND did not oxidize nicely (too orange).
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a great full coverage foundation for evenings and photographs really well! However, I feel its too heavy on the skin during the day and can look slight cakey even with a primer.

Dogs Needing Homes
Age: Young
Sex: Female
Size: Small
Jack is a 2 1/2 yo beagle who had 2 families that were ill prepared for a dog. This is really unfortunate, because she is a WONDERFUL dog and as her fosters we have been tempted to adopt her ourselves. She is house broken and wonderful with our children. Interestingly enough, she has become very bonded to our autistic son, and when she is not begging for his attention, he is begging for hers. It is very sweet. She obviously has had little exposure to other dogs, for her first meeting with our dogs she was tense. With some guidance she warmed up within 15 minutes and now loves to play and socialize with them. She is an energetic dog but not wild. She loves to play tug of war and fetch. But she also loves to snuggle in your lap, sleep in your arms or next to you in bed. She likes to wrestle and may mouth your hands, but has never bit anyone in play. She will need regular exercise or play to keep her energy from turning destructive. To adopt Jack you must have Beagle experience and have a fenced in yard. An electric fence is not acceptable. She is a very good girl, spayed, up to date on her shots, heart worm negative, on heart worm preventative, and micro-chipped. Her adoption fee is $350.
You must fill out an adoption application before you are allowed to meet the animal. Please complete the adoption application located on our website.
Small Dog Rescue of MN does not negotiate the adoption fee on our dogs
We are offering a microchip placement for your resident dog for small donation to our rescue
Please note that we do not have a shelter, and all dogs are in foster homes. Since we strive to provide the best possible care for our animals, sometimes we cannot answer emails promptly. Please allow 48 hours for us to respond to you.
You must be 18 years of age to make an adoption request

Waste Watch: Proposed 30% Raises for Elected Officials Raises Questions
LAWRENCEBURG, Ohio (Angenette Levy) -- Proposed 30% raises for the Mayor and Clerk-Treasurer in Lawrenceburg raised the ire of two city council members who feel the city is spending too much money.
According to a document released by councilman Mike Lawrence, Mayor Dennis Carr's salary would have increased from $47,600 to $61,600. Clerk-Treasurer Jackie Stutz's salary would have increased to $64,999 from $49,670.
"We're going to be broke in a matter of years," said council member Jane Pope when arguing against the raises.
Stutz defended the increases. "I just put in money. I didn't put in a percentage or anything. We've never put in percentages before for elected officials. I just put a number out there," Stutz said. She added. "There are office help and foremen that make more money than I do and they all get overtime and they don't do near as much work as I do. That's why I put in for more money."
Sometime before the meeting the amount of the raises changed on the ordinance from 30% to 3.2%.
Jane Pope: "Why was it changed? Because we put the heat or what?"
Mayor Dennis Carr: No, it was a typo.
Mike Lawrence: A typo?"
Local 12 News tried to get a more detailed explanation from Mayor Carr during a recess but he ignored Angenette Levy when she approached him.
Clerk-Treasurer Stutz said Mayor Carr instructed her to change the amount of the raises.
Council member Mike Lawrence didn't believe the Mayor's explanation.
"It was not a typo. She just, like she said, pulled a figure and stuck it on there. I don't agree you pull 30% figures and put in there for pay raises."
Lawrence said elected officials should not receive raises.
Last summer, the council approved 40% raises for the police chief and assistant chief. At the time, one city council member said they deserved the raises because they had been underpaid.
Council approved the raises and a $50 million budget for 2014 by a vote of 3-2. Council members Jane Pope and Mike Lawrence said theyre concerned the city is spending too much money since casino revenue is down.
A consultant working for the city said at the meeting that the citys cash position is relatively flat and the city isnt spending all of its money.
As of September 2013, the city had $132 million in the bank.

December 25, 2014
President Bush says workers at the Department of Homeland Security deserve a "gold star" for their efforts to safeguard America's skies, borders and ports.
The president marked the one-year anniversary of the department with a pep talk for its employees, saying they've "passed every test."
The department was created in response to the 9/11 attacks, merging 22 federal agencies from the Coast Guard to the Secret Service.
Bush says in the past year, workers have accomplished much. But he says they must remain on guard against an enemy that is "wounded" but "not broken."
Democrats are marking the anniversary, too by giving Bush's homeland efforts a failing grade. Sen. John Kerry's presidential campaign notes reports that many cities still lack needed funding for first responders, and many ports still haven't gotten grants for tightening security.

UEFA are set to take action against Bayern Munich over a banner which was displayed by the German club's supporters at their Champions League match against Arsenal on Tuesday night.
The apparently homophobic banner was targeted at Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil, a Germany international.
The banner carried the slogan 'Gay Gunners' and appeared to depict Ozil standing in front of Arsenal's signature cannon.
And UEFA chief of press Pedro Pinto tweeted on Wednesday morning: "There will be news from UEFA on the matter this afternoon."
Pinto also said UEFA have opened disciplinary proceedings against Bayern over a banner related to Kosovo which was displayed at the same match.
Bayern winger Xherdan Shaqiri is of Kosovar origin, although he fled to Switzerland with his family as a child and represents the Swiss at international level.
Kosovo played their first FIFA-approved international last Wednesday and drew 0-0 at home against Haiti, six years after declaring independence from Serbia.
The Champions League second-leg tie finished 1-1, meaning defending champions Bayern advance to the quarter-finals 3-1 on aggregate.

*When you insure 3 or more gadgets
We have a 4.8-star
Google rating
We have sold over
policies in the UK and US combined
We protect pretty much everything, from your Smartphone and iPad to your Smart TV.
From cracked screens to full on smashes you're covered. In 2013 we repaired over 1100 gadgets each month.
Ever wondered how long a high end smartphone survives a dunking?
See what happened
826,000 mobile thefts occur each year. That's more than 1 every minute.
(2011/12 Crime Survey for England and Wales).
We cover you against theft as standard.
We'll protect you if your phone breaks down after the manufacturer's warranty has run out.
We pay for calls and data used up to the cost of £10,000 between when your phone is lost or stolen and when you blacklist it with your network. Just please do so within 72 hours.
Ever had that sinking feeling when you know it's lost? For an extra £1.50 per month we guard against loss.
Your Gadgets can be the perfect holiday companions. With us you are covered worldwide for up to 180 days a year.
Why multi-gadget insurance adds up
Gadget insurance is our business, so we see a lot of claims for a lot of devices. It's also why we saw the need to give our customers a valuable discount when they protect multiple gadgets with us.
Let's see how our Multi-Gadget insurance works. Rob and Steve are brothers – and like many brothers they're really competitive. Rob is mad about Samsung stuff, he's just got the latest Samsung Galaxy smartphone and a cool Galaxy Note tablet to go with it. Great gadgets – and worth quite a lot too. Now getting mobile phone insurance is always a good idea, but Rob also gets his tablet insured with Protect Your Bubble too. That's not just great cover, but great value too as he gets a 10% discount for protecting two devices.
Steve is an Apple fan. He always has to go one step further than his brother - so not only does he have an iPhone 5 and an iPad, he's also got a Macbook Pro. He knows how much it could cost if any of his kit was stolen or damaged so he's got his laptop insurance, ipad insurance and mobile phone insurance with us. He's also got a 15% discount as he's covering 3 gadgets on one policy.
One thing they're sharing in common though is great cover.

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.

London Broil for 2 (slow cooker)
This recipie uses salt free products as much as possible for a low sodium content. Sodium in this recipe is primarily from the meat. Combine with a potato and vegetable for a nice ~500 calorie meal
Low(er) sodium Tomatoe soup alternative
My answer to a soup not loaded with salt, add spices to your liking. I love Grilled cheese and Tomatoe soup but can't take the 1,000 mg (+) hit with a very low sodium diet (1200 mg/less daily). This soup combined with a slice of cheese on buttered wheat bread comes in at a respectable 638 mg sodium for the meal, less if you can find low sodium cheese, bread and use butter with no salt.

I'm going to be in Mesa from the 5th through the 7th. I'm there on business, but I'll have some free time. How close are you guys to Mesa?
Mesa is a fairly spread out city for a suburb and is a vast wasteland of
and is the fourth fattest city in the nation.http://www.city-data.com/picfilesv/picv15665.phphttp://www.azcentral.com/blogs/index...ttest_in_the_n
I can meet you in Tempehttp://www.fourpeaks.com/
or in the 7th best place to have a beerhttp://beeradvocate.com/acbw/2006/places
PM me.
Why didn't I see this earlier? Cheese, I work right behind 4 Peaks. My LHBS is LITERALLY right out their back door! (The boss is always going out for lunch there.)
(Ollllllo, thanks for bringing up my, uh, weight issue!!)
Man, the threads are hard to keep up on. I didn't even notice this one until just now doing a search for who might be flaming me <jk>.
This is undoable for me because of business crappola. I'm a 1.5 hr drive to Mesa and have a feeling I wouldn't be sober for the trip home. Weren't you also coming down for some spring training sometime? There must be a fair amount of you "sick of winter" folk coming to the cactus leagues.
Too bad.
I'm going to a Spring Training game while I'm there, on Tuesday. Too bad you're all too far away.
With work life, I'm just trying to hold on to not become an El Pistolero. Note sig, nothing brewing and no time for a couple weeks .
The wife's going to Hampton, VA this friday to visit my son, DIL and grandson. I gotta work.
I might be aable to meet after your game. My point is that you will want to not be in Mesa. What's the timeframe? Assuming the game is at HoHoKam?
Cheese, any way you could make it down to Tucson?
That works out. I can meet up after work then. I'll PM my info and I'll get back to you on a specifi location. Tempe stuff is close. There's a Corp Micro called BJ's on Power and the 60 that will give you a AHA discount, but we can do better.

I'm dissapointed, I was excepting some kind of reward for the new "record" on the viewers.
Woo! Well fought, everyone! I watched it all as well. Was great watching the superpros at work!
And AWESOME! to the fact that we all set a new e-sports viewing record! We rock!
All in all, good show.

We should get a IP boost for out loyalty... right ... right?
What happened with SK? They lost in the qualifiers? I am shocked.
The best games are a moment to learn, and a lifetime to master. They are simple enough to understand, yet in their simplicity lack binding rules and allow infinite creativity. Nine Men's Morris, Go, and myriad card games have survived longer than civilized memory. Let League of Legends be an example to the MOBA genre.
Holy schnikes Batman!

Family outreach program looks to help fight drug use

Serenity Family Outreach is hosting a different type of a back-to-school event for families — one that doesn't include list of school supplies, but one, they believe, should be at the top of the list.
The event — "Talking Smack: The truth about drug use and high school" — will be a two-part educational series to help youths, parents and school staff prevent drug use. It's free and open to the public.
Since Serenity Family Outreach was launched earlier this year, its mission has focused on helping families who struggle with the disease of addiction, and erasing the stigma of addiction.
It was started by a Mount Greenwood mother, Maureen Fleming, and her two daughters from Evergreen Park, Cathaleen Novak and Erin Day, who last year lost their son and brother Matt Barham, 29, to a drug overdose.
Since April they have hosted two meetings a month — focusing on education and support for families battling addiction. They want to get the community involved in their fight to prevent drug abuse.
"If you're a parent, wouldn't you want to be one step ahead of this?" Day said, adding that parents need to realize that "good kids do drugs."
DARE programs — still used in many schools — "are too little, too late," she said.
Serenity's back to school series will offer two programs, at 7 p.m. Aug. 18 and Sept. 8 at Jacob's Well Church, 3450 Maple Ave., Evergreen Park.
The August event will feature Nick Gore as keynote speaker. Gore, a recovering heroin addict, appeared on Oprah Prime and has made presentations at schools sharing his journey from drug use to abuse, to addiction and recovery.
In September, Dr. Kathleen Burke, founder of Strategic Prevention and former CEO of the Robert Crown Health Center, will offer strategies to help parents identify risky behavior, minimize risk taking and raise resilient children.
Novak said they are targeting junior high and high school youth, parents and school staff.
"This is an awesome opportunity — and it's free," she said. "This is our big prevention push. We want to help parents identify drug use and be proactive."
"Kids need to know this is really, really bad," Fleming said. "We have learned so much through our own experience. When I first heard about Matt, I was physically sick."
While drug addiction is typically a "hush-hush" topic for families, Fleming and her daughters want to bring it out into the open, talk about it, get people the help they need and raise awareness about this disease.
"You have to stop looking the other way," Fleming said.
"We're learning as we go. We like to help people in Matt's situation. We want to educate people so there is more understanding," Day said.
While Serenity Family Outreach helps families learn to live with an addict without enabling them, it also helps them find resources they need so they can deal with this disease with dignity.
They have also assisted at sober living/recovery homes in Blue Island —Advance Her Chance and Affordable Construction and Recovery
"When we found out about Matt, we could not get help for him. There was no one to help us," Novak said. And that spurred them on to help others.
Serenity hosts educational sessions and support groups on the first and third Mondays of each month at 7 p.m. at Jacob's Well Church.
"While rehab and treatment centers help with the addict's immediate recovery, we saw a real need to holistically and comprehensively treat not only the addict but the people and community that surround them," Novak said.
On the first anniversary of Matt's death, Sept. 21, they will host a 5K run/walk at 1 p.m. at Klein "Circle" Park in Evergreen Park, to raise awareness as well as funds for their continued programs. The event, which is $30 per person or $100 for a team of four, will include T-shirts, a professionally timed USATF-certified course and a post party with music and food. Kids 12 and under are free.
