Cincinnati-based Kroger Co. launched a price-lowering campaign in the wake of dropping its double coupon program for its Delta region stores in West Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, southern Missouri and southwest Kentucky.
The program comes just a few days after Kroger executives discussed reasons for dropping double coupons during the quarterly conference call held June 20.
According to a local news article in from CBS station THV11, Kroger's price lowering campaign is set to start June 26, and includes items in grocery, produce, organics, natural foods and general merchandise.
One example included yellow peaches for 99 cents a pound, 60 cents lower than the regular price.
Kroger plans to discontinue double coupons in the division as of July 10. Kroger executives said during the conference call that the price lowering program should benefit more customers than currently were utilizing double coupons.
"We invested the monies that were saved from double coupons into lower everyday pricing," Kroger's president and chief operating officer Rodney McMullen said during the call. "So if you look in total, it actually had no effect on gross margin. What we found was there weren't very many customers actually engaged with double coupons and we felt like it was better to give lower prices to all customers so all customers could get the benefit of that, so it really didn't affect much."

Prospect Talent Score
Probability of Success
2008-09: Bill Arnold skated for the Little Bruins prior to the high school season and tied for the team lead in scoring for Nobles and Greenough (Mass.). He scored 26 goals with 21 assists in 33 games for the Little Bruins. In 29 games with Nobles and Greenough, he scored 28 goals with 27 assists.
2009-10: Arnold played for the US NTDP team that competed in the USHL this season. In 26 games, Arnold scored 8 goals and added 15 assists for 23 points. He posted a +15 rating for the season.
2010-11: Arnold had a very good freshman season at Boston College, scoring ten goals with ten assists and a plus ten rating in 39 NCCA (HE) games. He centered the Eagles' third line while being used on both the power play and penalty kill units by the season's end. The freshman was named to the NCAA (Hockey East) All-Rookie Team for the 2010-11 season.
2011-12: Arnold was one of the top forwards for NCAA champion Boston College as a sophomore and was impressive playing for the USA at the 2012 U20 World Junior Championship. He scored 17 goals with 19 assists and was plus-16 with 46 penalty minutes in 42 games for the Eagles. Boston College won its final 19 games; capturing the Hockey East regular season and playoff titles and defeating Ferris State, 4-1, in the Frozen Four Final. Arnold was one of the few forwards to stand out for the USA team; scoring 3 goals with 3 assists in seven games for a team that finished seventh.
2012-13: Arnold was the fourth-leading scorer for Boston College in his junior season. The center scored 17 goals with 18 assists and was +5 with 40 penalty minutes. The Eagles finished second to Massachusetts-Lowell in Hockey East and received an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament after a loss to Boston University in the Hockey East semifinals. BC lost to Union, 5-1, in the NCAA East Regional semifinals.
Talent Analysis
The hard-working center can play the defensive shutdown role but also puts up solid offensive numbers by driving hard to the net in the attacking zone. Arnold is a physical two-way center with great character and an excellent work ethic. The solidly built forward has greatly improved his skating and can play on both specialty teams. He has the hockey smarts to exploit his opponents' weaknesses and recognize where his highly talented wingers are on the ice. Arnold projects as a top-nine forward with some offensive upside at the NHL level.
Arnold will be returning for his fourth year at Boston College as the 2013-14 season begins. The versatile center will be returning to the Eagles with fellow Flames' prospect John Gaudreau as the duo seeks an NCAA Championship. Arnold will be depended on for his maturity and composure to be a leader on the team, which can benefit the center as he graduates from the college ranks and transitions to a pro career.

Job reproves his friends. (1-5) The wicked often prosper.(6-11) Job speaks of the wisdom and power of God. (12-25)
Verses 1-5 Job upbraids his friends with the good opinion they had of their own wisdom compared with his. We are apt to call reproofs reproaches, and to think ourselves mocked when advised and admonished; this is our folly; yet here was colour for this charge. He suspected the true cause of their conduct to be, that they despised him who was fallen into poverty. It is the way of the world. Even the just, upright man, if he comes under a cloud, is looked upon with contempt.
Verses 6-11 Job appeals to facts. The most audacious robbers, oppressors, and impious wretches, often prosper. Yet this is not by fortune or chance; the Lord orders these things. Worldly prosperity is of small value in his sight: he has better things for his children. Job resolves all into the absolute proprietorship which God has in all the creatures. He demands from his friends liberty to judge of what they had said; he appeals to any fair judgment.
Verses 12-25 This is a noble discourse of Job concerning the wisdom, power, and sovereignty of God, in ordering all the affairs of the children of men, according to the counsel of His own will, which none can resist. It were well if wise and good men, who differ about lesser things, would see how it is for their honour and comfort, and the good of others, to dwell most upon the great things in which they agree. Here are no complaints, or reflections. He gives many instances of God's powerful management of the children of men, overruling all their counsels, and overcoming all their oppositions. Having all strength and wisdom, God knows how to make use, even of those who are foolish and bad; otherwise there is so little wisdom and so little honesty in the world, that all had been in confusion and ruin long ago. These important truths were suited to convince the disputants that they were out of their depth in attempting to assign the Lord's reasons for afflicting Job; his ways are unsearchable, and his judgments past finding out. Let us remark what beautiful illustrations there are in the word of God, confirming his sovereignty, and wisdom in that sovereignty: but the highest and infinitely the most important is, that the Lord Jesus was crucified by the malice of the Jews; and who but the Lord could have known that this one event was the salvation of the world?
Job 12:1-14:22'. JOB'S REPLY TO ZOPHAR
2. wisdom shall die with you--Ironical, as if all the wisdom in the world was concentrated in them and would expire when they expired. Wisdom makes "a people:" a foolish nation is "not a people" ( Romans 10:19 ).
3. not inferior--not vanquished in argument and "wisdom" ( Job 13:2 ).
such things as these--such commonplace maxims as you so pompously adduce.
4. The unfounded accusations of Job's friends were a "mockery" of him. He alludes to Zophar's word, "mockest" ( Job 11:3 ).
neighbour, who calleth, &c.--rather, "I who call upon God that he may answer me favorably" [UMBREIT].
5. Rather, "a torch" (lamp) is an object of contempt in the thoughts of him who rests securely (is at ease), though it was prepared for the falterings of the feet [UMBREIT] ( Proverbs 25:19 ). "Thoughts" and "feet" are in contrast; also rests "securely," and "falterings." The wanderer, arrived at his night-quarters, contemptuously throws aside the torch which had guided his uncertain steps through the darkness. As the torch is to the wanderer, so Job to his friends. Once they gladly used his aid in their need; now they in prosperity mock him in his need.
6. Job shows that the matter of fact opposes Zophar's theory ( Job 11:14 Job 11:19 Job 11:20 ) that wickedness causes insecurity in men's "tabernacles." On the contrary, they who rob the "tabernacles" ("dwellings") of others "prosper securely" in their own.
into whose hand, &c.--rather, "who make a god of their own hand," that is, who regard their might as their only ruling principle [UMBREIT].
7, 8. Beasts, birds, fishes, and plants, reasons Job, teach that the violent live the most securely ( Job 12:6 ). The vulture lives more securely than the dove, the lion than the ox, the shark than the dolphin, the rose than the thorn which tears it.
8. speak to the earth--rather, "the shrubs of the earth" [UMBREIT].
9. In all these cases, says Job, the agency must be referred to Jehovah, though they may seem to man to imply imperfection ( Job 12:6 , 9:24 ). This is the only undisputed passage of the poetical part in which the name "Jehovah" occurs; in the historical parts it occurs frequently.
10. the soul--that is, the animal life. Man, reasons Job, is subjected to the same laws as the lower animals.
11. As the mouth by tasting meats selects what pleases it, so the ear tries the words of others and retains what is convincing. Each chooses according to his taste. The connection with Job 12:12 is in reference to Bildad's appeal to the "ancients" ( Job 8:8 ). You are right in appealing to them, since "with them was wisdom," &c. But you select such proverbs of theirs as suit your views; so I may borrow from the same such as suit mine.
12. ancient--aged ( Job 15:10 ).
13. In contrast to, "with the ancient is wisdom" ( Job 12:12 ), Job quotes a saying of the ancients which suits his argument, "with Him (God) is (the true) wisdom" ( Proverbs 8:14 ); and by that "wisdom and strength" "He breaketh down," &c., as an absolute Sovereign, not allowing man to penetrate His mysteries; man's part is to bow to His unchangeable decrees ( Job 1:21 ). The Mohammedan saying is, "if God will, and how God will."
14. shutteth up--( Isaiah 22:22 ). Job refers to Zophar's "shut up" ( Job 11:10 ).
15. Probably alluding to the flood.
16. ( Ezekiel 14:9 ).
18. He looseth the bond of kings--He looseth the authority of kings--the "bond" with which they bind their subjects ( Isaiah 45:1 Genesis 14:4 , Daniel 2:21 ).
a girdle--the cord, with which they are bound as captives, instead of the royal "girdle" they once wore ( Isaiah 22:21 ), and the bond they once bound others with. So "gird"--put on one the bonds of a prisoner instead of the ordinary girdle ( John 21:18 ).
19. princes--rather, "priests," as the Hebrew is rendered ( Psalms 99:6 ). Even the sacred ministers of religion are not exempt from reverses and captivity.
the mighty--rather, "the firm-rooted in power"; the Arabic root expresses ever-flowing water [UMBREIT].
20. the trusty--rather, "those secure in their eloquence"; for example, the speakers in the gate ( Isaiah 3:3 ) [BEZA].
understanding--literally, "taste," that is, insight or spiritual discernment, which experience gives the aged. The same Hebrew word is applied to Daniel's wisdom in interpretation ( Daniel 2:14 ).
21. Psalms 107:40 quotes, in its first clause, this verse and, in its second, Job 12:24 .
weakeneth the strength--literally, "looseth the girdle"; Orientals wear flowing garments; when active strength is to be put forth, they gird up their garments with a girdle. Hence here--"He destroyeth their power" in the eyes of the people.
22. ( Daniel 2:22 ).
23. Isaiah 9:3 , Psalms 107:38 Psalms 107:39 , which Psalm quotes this chapter
straiteneth--literally, "leadeth in," that is, "reduces."
24. heart--intelligence.
wander in a wilderness--figurative; not referring to any actual fact. This cannot be quoted to prove Job lived after Israel's wanderings in the desert. Psalms 107:4 Psalms 107:40 quotes this passage.
25. Deuteronomy 28:29 , Psalms 107:27 again quote Job, but in a different connection.

COP-MOP 5 – Summary of Major Issues
Provisional Agenda
The fifth meeting of the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Protocol (COP-MOP 5) will take place in Nagoya, Japan, from 11 to 15 October 2010. Building upon the achievements of the first fourth meetings held in February 2004 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, May/June 2005 in Montreal, Canada, March 2006 in Curitiba, Brazil and May 2008 in Bonn, Germany respectively, COP-MOP 5 is expected to arrive at decisions on a number of issues to further facilitate the implementation of the Protocol. The meeting will address a number of standing issues on the COP-MOP agenda as well as substantive issues arising from the medium-term programme of work arising and previous decisions of the COP-MOP.
Standing Issues
Compliance under the Protocol
The meeting will consider the report of the Compliance Committee, including a compilation of views on how the supportive role of the Compliance Committee could be improved. COP-MOP is expected to consider the recommendations of the Committee and take a decision, as appropriate.
At this meeting, the COP-MOP will consider recommendations from the sixth meeting of the Informal Advisory Committee on the Biosafety Clearing-House (IAC-BCH) on the assessment of the programme of work. The recommendations will include the assessment of the re-design of the BCH of, among other things, the registering section and the new set of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).
The COP-MOP 5 is expected to consider a report on the steps taken towards the implementation of the Action Plan for Building Capacities for the Effective Implementation of the Protocol and its Coordination Mechanism and adopt terms of reference for the review of the Action Plan.
Financial mechanisms and resources
COP-MOP is expected to consider a compilation of national reports regarding actions being taken towards becoming Parties to the Protocol by countries that have received funding from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) activities.
Cooperation with other organizations, conventions and initiatives
There are a number of international agreements, organizations, conventions and initiative that are relevant for the implementation of the Protocol. COP-MOP 5 is expected to review a report on cooperative activities, in particular, to build capacity in developing countries, including cooperation with the World Trade Organization, the Codex Alimentarius Commission, the International Plant Protection Convention, the Aarhus Convention, the World Customs Organization, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the Green Customs Initiative.
Administration of the Protocol and budgetary matters
COP-MOP is expected to consider a report from the Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme on the use of the programme support cost (PSC) in support of the functioning of the Secretariat. The COP-MOP is also expected to consider a report from the Executive Secretary on additional support to the Protocol for the 2009-2010 biennium from the same source.
It is also expected that COP-MOP will consider a report and, if appropriate, make a decision regarding using the host country currency or the US$ as the currency of the account and budget of the Protocol.
Substantive Issues Arising from the Medium-term Programme of Work and Previous COP-MOP Decisions
Handling, transport, packaging and identification of LMOs
At this meeting, the Parties will consider a synthesis report on experience gained with the use of documentation to further harmonization of a documentation format to fulfil specific identification requirements, including consideration of the need for a stand-alone document. COP-MOP 5 is also expected to review a document on experiences of international bodies in the establishment and implementation of rules and standards relevant to Article 18. Furthermore, it is also expected that a summary of the outcome reflecting the full range of views expressed of the Online Forum on Standards for LMO Shipments will be reviewed.
Risk assessment and risk management
At its fourth meeting, the COP-MOP, established and mandated an Ad Hoc Technical Expert Group (AHTEG) on Risk Assessment and Risk Management to, among other things, prepare a "roadmap", e.g. a flowchart, on steps for conducting a risk assessment in accordance with Annex III to the Protocol with examples of existing guidance documents for each of step. The COP-MOP 5 is expected to consider a report from the expert group and to take appropriate action.
Liability and redress
At its first meeting, the COP-MOP established an Ad Hoc Open Ended Working Group of Legal and Technical Experts on Liability and Redress to elaborate options for elements of international rules and procedures on liability and redress under the Protocol. The Working Group was requested to complete its work in 2007. At its fourth meeting, COP-MOP considered the final report of the Working Group and adopted the negotiating text as revised by a contact group. At its fourth meeting, the COP-MOP agreed to establish a Group of the Friends of the Co-Chairs to continue the process. It is expected that the fifth meeting of the COP-MOP will consider the outcome of the negotiations of the Group and take appropriate action.
Assessment and review
The COP-MOP 5 is expected to review and adopt a draft strategic plan for the Protocol. It is also expected to review a document on, among other things, sound methodological approach to contribute to an effective second assessment and review of the Protocol and draft criteria or indicators that could apply in the evaluation of the effectiveness of the Protocol and provide an indication of the utility.
Public awareness and participation
Under this meeting, it is expected that Parties will adopt a comprehensive programme of work on public awareness, education and participation concerning the safe transfer, handling and use of LMOs. The meeting will also consider a synthesis of views submitted on possible elements of a programme of work. Furthermore, COP-MOP 5 will consider a report on progress and initiatives made by governments and organizations in promoting public awareness, education and participation concerning the safe transfer, handling and use of LMOs, including experiences gained and lessons learned from the national biosafety frameworks and taking into account information contained in the Biosafety Clearing-House.

Improve The Design Of Your Passive Wideband ADC Front-End Network
As converter technology improves, so does the demand to resolve very high intermediate frequencies (IFs) accurately at high speeds. This poses two challenges: the converter design itself and the front-end design that couples the signal content to the converter. Even if the converter itself is excellent, the front end must be able to preserve the signal quality too. (Electronic Design, 3/26/2010) |

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Slovakia's coalition government will meet later today with the
heads of all 4 coalition parties in attendance in order to try to
reach an agreement on the expansion of the EFSF. While there are
still uncertainties over how exactly the country will get the
votes necessary for ESFS to pass in the parliament, it is likely
that the vote will pass one way or another and that Slovakia will
not derail the EFSF altogether. However, Slovakian Prime Minister
Iveta Radicova will have to give costly concessions in order for
the vote to pass, whether in the domestic arena or via Slovakia's
standing in the Eurozone.
Why Slovakia matters to EFSF
* Slovakia is one of the 3 remaining Eurozone countries (along
with Malta and the Netherlands) to have not yet approved the
expansion of the EFSF
* Slovakia is scheduled to vote on the ESFS sometime between Oct
11-15, ahead of an Oct 17 summit of EU leaders on the issue -
Slovakia has said it would be the last country to vote on the
ESFS and it is the one facing the biggest political hurdles in
doing so
* German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble highlighted the
importance of Slovakia's vote, saying "They are deciding not
just for themselves, but also for all in Europe" and several
European leaders have paid visits to Slovakia recently to make
sure the vote is passed
Political obstacles to Slovakia's ratification
* While her ruling SDKU party supports ratification, Slovakian
Prime Minister Iveta Radicova finds herself in a precarious
political position in order to get the votes necessary to
ratify the EFSF
* First, Radicova's coalition only has a slim majority of 79
seats in the 150 member parliament, and depends on 3 other
parties - SaS, the Christian Democrats, and the Hungarian
party Most-Hid - for the coalition to hold
* Second, her junior coalition partner Freedom and Solidarity
(SaS) - which holds 22 of the 79 seats - has until recently
been opposed to vote for strengthening the EFSF
* Third, this could require Radicova to go the opposition
Smer-SD - which has 62 seats and is led by former Slovak PM
Robert Fico - to get the votes necessary to ratify the EFSF
* However, Fico has demanded some serious concessions from
Radicova in exchange for these votes - calling either for a
government reshuffle or for snap elections to be held - a
calculated move since Smer is currently in the lead in opinion
polls in terms of popularity amongst Slovakia's parties
Implications for Slovakia
* This therefore makes the deliberations that the coalition
parties are having today so important
* SaS has recently said that it would vote for the EFSF, but
only if there is no cost to Slovak taxpayers, meaning that
Slovakia would not contribute funds to the new EFSF
(Slovakia's contribution would be increased from 4.3 to 7.7
billion euro)
* This means that Radicova will have to make concessions and
faces challenges on war or another - whether domestically to
gain the support of the opposition, or in terms of its
status/perception within the Eurozone with voting for the ESFS
but not contributing to it
There's also the legal/technical question of what would happen if
they did this. Would they have to rewrite EFSFII amendments and go
back to each parliament or would there be a way to just kind of
ignore the changes and go through with it anyways.
That's a good question - If Radicova agrees to SaS demands, I would
think that this wouldn't require an extensive overhaul or re-vote
process, but I'd need to doublecheck that (Preisler?)
* Therefore this will either result in a political shake-up in
Slovakia, or a less than preferred outcome of Slovakia's
participation in the new EFSF, which could damage its standing
within the Eurozone and overall confidence which is already
shaky at best
what would "damage its standing within the Eurozone and overall
confidence" mean exactly. And do we care? I'm being
serious...what do we care if Slovakia loses face. And actually do
we even care if they have a change of govt as long as EFSFII
I think it matters more on a symbolic than a technical level - in that
it would expose the legitimacy of the new EFSF if not all Eurozone
members contribute to it. As for a change in government in Slovakia,
that would matter (again more symbolic, but also perhaps technical as
well) that a government fell directly because of the EFSF and this
could be a sign of the growing political challenges to Eurozone
governments to come in the future.
But this has already happened with Slovenia.
Well I think its notable that already one and potentially two governments
have collapsed as a result of the EFSF vote.

Visitors flock to King memorial in D.C. on eve of president's public swearing-in

WASHINGTON—Visitors from across the country flocked to the Martin Luther King Memorial on the National Mall on the eve of the public swearing-in of President Barack Obama.
For many of the folks who were in town for the inaugural festivities, it was a chance to pay homage to a man whose courageous fight against racial injustice paved the way for the nation's first black president.
Although it is clearly the president's weekend, the legacy of Dr. King was on many minds.
"I believe in the dream that Martin Luther King had and I believe our president is trying to say that that dream has come true," said Earline Franklin of Shorewood.
Franklin of also attended the 2009 Inauguration.
"That is why King's birthday and Obama's inauguration happened to be on the same day. It's another reason why it was so important for me to be here," she said.
Bessie Leigh of Roseland was also at the 2009 Inauguration, and the dedication of the King Memorial in 2011.
"When we came to the dedication, there wasn't this many people," Leigh said surveying the sea of cameras below the massive monument where crowds of amateur photographers were trying, in vain, not to include strangers in their photos.
Franklin made a tough choice in order to be in Washington for the weekend.
"When I realized that the inauguration and King's birthday was the same day, I cancelled a ski trip so I could be here. I wanted to be part of history. This is a momentous occasion," Franklin said.
Thanks to the unseasonably warm temperatures, people were all over the mall. The crowds flowed seamlessly between the Lincoln Memorial and the King Monument.
For some, this year's King Day observance was even more poignant because Obama is being sworn in for a second term.
On Monday, President Obama will pay homage to King's legacy by using the civil rights leader's personal bible during the public swearing-in.
Gwen Reese of Memphis, Tenn., stood at the outer edge of the crowd watching as people jockeyed for a position directly in front of the massive King monument.
"My husband and I had plans to come four years ago for the first inauguration and he had to have surgery. His surgery was successful and we just appreciate being here and being part of history," she told me.
Her husband, Bud Reese, recalled where he was when King was tragically shot at a Memphis hotel in 1968.
"I was on the bus when Martin Luther King was shot. It was the 16 Forest Hill bus and I was heading home, "Reese said.
"I had marched with him a couple of weeks before when there were riots associated with the sanitation strike. People criticized him for leading a black march and going to a white hotel and not patronizing black business," Reese pointed out.
"When King came back for the next march, he stayed at a black owned motel [the Lorraine Motel] and that was where he was shot."
A short distance away, Annie Ruth Phillips, also of Memphis, sat on a park bench where she had a clear view of the nation's capitol.
Phillips was decked out in a coat loaded with Obama campaign buttons.
Her late mother, Katie Harris Sexton, was a civil rights activist in Memphis. A $10 million community center is named in her honor. For people like Phillip's mother, King's dream was a far off goal.
Now Phillips can sit on a park bench at the National Mall and feel that she is part of America's story.
"We have a black man that won a second time around. It was so fabulous. People thought it was a fluke the first time, but the record speaks for itself," Phillips said.
"Now a black kid can say I would like to be president. I can actually walk in the United States of America and feel like a first-class citizen and not be harassed and judged by the color of my skin," she said.
Like a guardian angel, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is an affirming presence at this 57th presidential inauguration.

When Benny's pet parent brought him to Blue Pearl, a New York City veterinary clinic that provides overnight emergency animal care, he was in rough shape. This poor Brooklyn pup had serious injuries, and it seemed likely he had been hit by a car. The owners were going through a difficult time financially and could not afford the cost of the emergency care. They were heartbroken and appealed to Blue Pearl for assistance. Blue Pearl was able to provide subsidized care for Benny overnight, and called the ASPCA in the morning to see if we could help cover the rest of Benny's medical needs.
With the help of the ASPCA Partners in Caring (PIC) grant, a program that assists low-income pet owners with emergency medical care by providing grants directly to veterinary clinic partners, we were able to provide Benny with the attention he so desperately needed. This brave pup pulled through, and is now recovering at home with his family. We're so glad we were able to be there for Benny, and that his story has a happy ending.

I am very happy that Benny is recovered and back home with his nice family. I am sure they are totally relieved and grateful to Blue Pearl and the ASPCA for financial help in giving their sweet Benny the care he desperately needed. But dogs won't get hit by cars if they are kept on leashes, (if that is what happened), especially in big, busy boroughs and cities. Please be careful. It does not always have a happy ending.
I had a beagle and he was the love of my life and a wonderful dog, but he was an escape artist and a wanderer. Things happen so quickly to children and pets, so don't be too quick to judge. They also like to dig and can escape from a yard despite a fence.
Very happy that Benny recovered and found a loving home. Thank you for taking such good care of him and giving him a chance to be in a forever home where he will get the love and care he deserves. God bless you.

This is cheap and seems to work but is way too sweet for my tastebuds.
I'm still on the fence with Fructose, hi 5 is definitely better.
Purchased to make up my own 2:1 Maltodextrin/Fructose energy drink. Found it has been great for my 50+ mile bike rides and looking forward to it helping me through Ironman training in 2014. Works out exceptional value compared to buying overpriced commercial off the shelf enrgy drinks. Goes Well With:Maltodextrin

ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, used to be known as attention deficit disorder, or ADD. In 1994, it was renamed ADHD. The term ADD is sometimes still used, though, to describe a type of ADHD that doesn't involve hyperactivity.
ADHD is a medical condition that affects how well someone can sit still, focus, and pay attention. People with ADHD have differences in the parts of their brains that control attention and activity. This means that they may have trouble focusing on certain tasks and subjects, or they may seem "wired," act impulsively, and get into trouble.
Although ADHD begins in childhood, sometimes it's not diagnosed until a person is a teen — and occasionally not even until someone reaches adulthood.
Because ADHD is a broad category covering different things — attention, activity, and impulsivity — it can show up in different ways in different people. Some of the signs of ADHD are when someone:
Of course, it's normal for everyone to zone out in a boring class, jump into a conversation, or leave their homework on the kitchen table once in a while. But people with ADHD have so much trouble staying focused and controlling their behavior that it affects their emotions and how well they do in school or other areas of their lives. In fact, ADHD is often viewed as a learning disorder because it can interfere so much with a person's ability to study and learn.
Sometimes the symptoms of ADHD become less severe as a person grows older. Hyperactivity tends to get less as people grow up, although the problems with organization and attention often remain. More than half of kids who have ADHD will continue to have symptoms as young adults.
Doctors and researchers still aren't exactly sure why some people have ADHD. Research shows that ADHD is probably genetic and that it may be inherited in some cases. Scientists are also exploring other things that may be associated with ADHD: For example, ADHD may be more prevalent in kids who are born prematurely. It is also more commonly diagnosed in guys than it is in girls.
Doctors do know that ADHD is caused by changes in brain chemicals called neurotransmitters (pronounced: nur-oh-trans-mih-terz). These chemicals help send messages between nerve cells in the brain. The neurotransmitter dopamine (pronounced: doe-puh-meen), for example, stimulates the brain's attention centers. So a person with low amounts of this chemical may show symptoms of ADHD.
Because there's no cure for ADHD, doctors treat people by helping them to manage the symptoms most effectively. Because some people have more trouble with the attention side of the disorder and others have more problems with the activity side, doctors tailor their treatment to the person's symptoms. So different people with ADHD may have different treatments.
Doctors usually follow what's called a multimodal (pronounced: mul-tee-moe-dul) approach to ADHD treatment. This means that they use several different treatment methods for one patient, such as medication, family and individual counseling, and changes at school to address particular learning styles.
Certain medicines can help people with ADHD by improving their focus and attention and reducing the impulsiveness and hyperactivity associated with ADHD. People with ADHD used to have to take medicine several times a day, but now there are some that can be taken at home once a day in the morning. Scientists are constantly working to develop new medications to treat ADHD.
You can discuss treatment options with your doctor, but always follow the doctor's instructions about medication dosages. If you have been taking medicine for ADHD since you were a kid, your doctor will probably adjust your medication for changes in your symptoms as you get older.
Family counseling helps treat ADHD because it keeps parents informed and also shows them ways they can work with their kids to help. It also helps to improve communication within the family and to solve problems that come up between teens and their parents at home. Individual counseling helps teens with ADHD to better understand their behavior and to learn coping skills. Sometimes lots of teens with ADHD work together in group therapy, which helps them work on coping skills and getting along better with others, if that's been a problem.
Schools are also involved in helping students with ADHD — most will develop a plan that's right for each teen and make changes that allow learning in ways that work best for them.
People with ADHD may also have other problems, such as depression, anxiety, or learning disabilities like dyslexia, that require treatment. They also may be at greater risk for smoking and using drugs, especially if the ADHD is not appropriately treated. That's why proper diagnosis and treatment are critical.
Most teens with ADHD are diagnosed as kids, but some people aren't diagnosed until they're in their teens or even older. It's normal to feel overwhelmed, scared, or even angry if you've been diagnosed with ADHD. That's one thing counseling can help with. Talking about those feelings and dealing with them often makes the process much easier.
If you have ADHD, you may not be aware that you're behaving in a way that's different from others; you're just doing what comes naturally. This can sometimes cause problems with people who don't understand or know about your condition. For example, you might speak your mind to someone only to get the feeling that you've shocked or offended that person. You may not understand why people get mad at you.
Learning all you can about your condition can be a huge help. The more you understand, the more involved you can be in your own treatment.
Here are some of the things you might try to help with school and relationships:
If you have ADHD, it's natural to feel misunderstood and frustrated at times. It might seem like you're always losing your homework or having trouble following teachers' instructions, or you may have trouble making friends or getting along with your family members.
It helps to learn as much as you can about ADHD and to find the methods that will help you work to your full potential — both academically and socially.
The good news is that doctors, counselors, and teachers are learning more about ADHD all the time and have a greater understanding than ever of the challenges people living with it face.
Plus, the organization skills you develop now will serve you well in the future. Even people who don't have ADHD all find they need to develop these skills when they head off to the workplace — so you'll be ahead of the curve!

Nissan Frontier Noises
I have a 2000 Frontier V-6 4WD automatic. The last few times I've used 4WD (in 4H setting), I get a sporadic knocking noise under the floorboard - feels like it's directly under the accelerator pedal. You can hear it AND feel it - it goes on randomly for a few miles, then seems to settle down and go away. I first noticed it when coming out of 4WD and back to 2WD a week or so ago. As I said, after a few miles, it quieted down. Today, in a snowstorm, I put it into 4WD and got the same thing. Once again, it quieted down after a few miles. The noise sounds like metal hitting metal - it isn't constant - sort of random and sporadic.
Anybody have a clue what that's all about?
Anybody have a clue what that's all about?
crazyivan06 Posts: 2I recently purchased an '06 Frontier XE. Occasionally it will make a loud ticking noise shortly after starting the motor. The noise lasts for about 10 seconds then stops. It doesn't occur every time but is very annoying when it does. Dealer says it has to do with a "self-test" of the Airbag and is normal. Unacceptable. Any Ideas??
s0mdumb9uy Posts: 1I have a 2007 Frontier NISMO 4x4. The mechanic at the dealership said that its the timing chain that causes the clicking noise. Something about the chain rubbing with the plastic guides and overtime with wear and tear eventually will start rubbing metal to metal with the guides. Of course i'm not a mechanic but it sounds legit.

In order to be deemed sufficiently inoffensive and acceptable for gathering, will citizens have to meet minimums on piercings, tattoos, scars, and birthmarks? Will verified payers of property tax be allowed some leniency? Maybe have a special Downtown Association* Approved card to show the foot patrol when they come to "move along" someone they feel has sat long enough?
It will be a sad day when the freedom and generosity of spirit that I love about McMinnville is replaced with the Almighty Association's idea of what our town should be. All they care about is wine and tourism. If you're from here and don't drink, they don't give a rat's butt what you think about downtown.
*I'm not going to refer to the Association by its initials. The Muscular Dystrophy Association got dibs on that quite a while back and I'd hate to create confusion.
I wonder whether you would be willing to write 500-600 words in support of the freedom to loiter on Third Street in McMinnville.
If so, would you please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com? We might want to run such an essay in Viewpoints as an op-ed or as part of a pro/con on allowing loitering, both of which would require your actual name and photo. It's a great opportunity to make your point to thousands of readers. Please e-mail me.

Several grower-packers have teamed with Sony Pictures Animation on a campaign that benefits a national hunger-relief charity and coincides with the filmmaker's launch of "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2."
Courtesy Sony AnimationBarry the berry, a star of the upcoming " Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2," was one of the attractions for California Giant Berry Farms to participate in a hunger-relief tie-in to the film.As part of the arrangement, Culver City, Calif.-based Sony Pictures will make a cash donation to the Chicago-based Feeding America, according to a news release.
In addition, participating grower-shippers — California Giant Berry Farms, Cal-Organic Farms, Duda Farm Fresh Foods, Grimmway Farms and the National Watermelon Promotion Board — plan to donate more than 80,000 pounds of produce to the charity's nationwide network of food banks.
Consumers can scan quick-response codes on produce packaging from participating firms, directing shoppers to a website. There they'll find recipes, information about the film and how they can donate to Feeding America.
The effort kicks off in July and ends in September, which is Hunger Action Month. The movie is set to premiere Sept. 27.
Sony Pictures contacted Watsonville, Calif.-based Cal Giant about participating partly because it sponsors a cycling team and promotes healthful activities, said Cindy Jewell, marketing director.
In addition, one of the movie characters is a strawberry.
The partnership also fits Cal Giant's philosophy about giving back.
"Typically, most of our promotions always have some sort of cause as a marketing component," she said. "We're excited to join in this national campaign to really support (Feeding America) and we they're trying to do."
Jewell said she already had viewed some of the movie trailers and believed it was a great opportunity to promote the industry's message that eating fresh produce is fun.
"What a better way to help consumption than to tie in with Sony and a movie with food as heroes," Jewell said. "It's really a great animated movie. It's a great way to enjoy a family movie and have a positive message about fresh produce and also do something good for people in need."
Courtesy Sony AnimationThe watermelophant, one of the starsSony Pictures also contacted Bakersfield, Calif.-based Grimmway Farms and its Cal-Organic Farms, about participating.

Reproductive biology with emphasis on uterine biology and pregnancy. Mechanisms of action of pregnancy recognition signals from the conceptus to the maternal uterus, including interferon tau and estrogen from ruminant and pig conceptuses, respectively, are studied at the molecular and cellular levels. The roles of uterine secretions as transport proteins, regulatory molecules, growth factors and enzymes and endocrine regulation of their secretion is another major research interest. The endocrinology of pregnancy, especially the roles of lactogenic and growth hormones in fetal-placental development and uterine functions are being studied. The mechanism(s) of action and potential therapeutic value of conceptus interferons and uterine-derived hematopoietic growth factors are areas of research with both pigs and sheep as models for human disease.

:confused::confused: ...
If quoted accurately by Swanni, Philip Goswitz must have meant "CONUS" Ka band capacity, not "local into local."
.... Does anyone else think it's weird that they're implying the KU signals will be used for 4K and the KA birds will be used for HD?
Yes, particularly when transponder bandwidth for the DBS Ku band has long been established by international agreement at only 24 MHz for our region (ITU's AP 30/30A Region 2 Plan).
Unless they plan on changing the rules or something, they're contemplating to try and squeeze 4k TV through that?
Won't get many channels ...

As a geek, I'm proud to represent women in technology speaking on topics such as; Framework Logic in ExpressionEngine, Load Balancing and Optimization of EE, Creating User Centric Back-ends with ExpressionEngine and Freelance Best Practices: Keeping Clients and Yourself Happy. I represent a passion for web standards, clean code and building relationships through business.
A few places I've had the opportunity to speak at:
Coming up: I remember visiting a family friend in Dallas when I was 10. I flew, on a plane, alone, to spend four days with their family. Looking at this now, I can not believe they let me go. My mother planned ahead and mailed a letter to me, most likely days before I ever left. It arrived on the second day of my stay. The bottom of the letter was signed, "love ya, Mom." That closing made me ache in homesickness. It spoke more to me about my mother than most of the letter. It was exactly how she spoke. "Love ya." It is not "Love YOU," just "love ya." Twenty five years later, in Dallas, my husband emails me a simple reply to a question. We've talked multiple times a day during my stay, have access to each other in ways...

I'm humbled and honored to have had my blog be a finalist in four weblog awards since its debut in 2003. Since then I've had the opportunity to speak on writing topics such as Prompted Writing, Story Success, Keeping Your Audience Engaged, and Mom Bloggers and Brands. Writing is a passion so I take every opportunity to inspire and be inspired. I pioneered a project for bloggers to get feedback from peers and inspire each other to write creatively. In the wake of two full time jobs, it didn't last as long as we'd like but the plan is to one day resurrect the Write-Of-Passage. #Life#The Flinger Family#Working Mom It's been a day. You know how people say this, "It's been a day," and nobody ever says, "oh, what do you mean?" It's like The Pill. Someone says The Pill and you know that means THE PILL. Not headache medicine, not Vitadmin D, but THE Pill. It's been a day. And while I can certainly give you details, let's face it: You KNOW what that means. There's a list of things that started out great and went to crap. Quickly. It's funny the things people will say when you enter a difficult situation. My family was uprooted from the upper-middle-class subburbs of a major metropolitan city with 300 days of sun at the end of Jr. High. We settled in a mill town in a small rural area of a state that sees 30 days of sun a year. The entire time my parents sang chorusses of "But you can remake yourself! You can be anything you want! You get to start fresh!" Dude, I was 13. I was fresh. I had no idea who I was in the first place. Also, these people don't peg their pants like we do and why aren't they wearing neon? Did I mention it was 1989? Similar in a way only I could make the metaphorical leap, learning Java in grad school brought me to tears. I remember telling people I'd...

#Life#The Flinger Family#Working Mom People so often lump a person's "core" within boxes. Boxes of artificial labels society places on ideals. "Republican." "Pro-Gay-Marriage." "Working Mother." "Christian." "Athiest." Our values in my family are above labels. They are paragraphs of ideals, gray areas of judgement. They are curated over years and formed through connections. They are intangible but visible. Between work and family and bills and co-workers and clients and rainy drizzly days and sick kids, it becomes rare if not impossible to have those conversations. The lists stack up, the mail remains unread, the dishes grow hard with food someone didn't finish. Perspective is lost and ideals get boxed. Identities...

#Life#Best Of#Things Kids Say#Those Little People My children were playing "little fucker" at Home Depot? Now, look, before you get all judgy, let me just preface this with a post I wrote two years ago to prove I have no idea what I'm doing as a parent. Ok? I had a plan. I had a theory. That theory sucked. In retrospect, the "time and a place" mantra could work. Teaching your children that anyone can say anything as long as it is the appropriate time and place is rather discerning. I don't want to shield my children from the world but would rather teach them how to navigate the gray areas of society including cussing, standing up for oneself and when an appropriate toilet joke is funny. I...

We've practiced this routine for years. Perhaps not exactly as performed, but we've spent years slowing building to this precipice. I know my partner is standing on the platform. I know my pole awaits. I am as prepared as I'll ever be as I climb the steep set of narrow stairs one after another. My feet dangle on the narrow step, my heels hanging off abrupt edges. If there was wind in the arena, I would feel it brushing the bottoms of my feet as I walk higher than air. I dare not glance down. I dare not look up. The lights dim and I take my place. My partner smiles on the other side of the wire, on his own platform. We lock eyes. It is time. They hand me my pole, I steady myself as I've been taught. I find a balancing point, slide...

#Life#The Flinger Family#Working Mom "WHY is Mommy wearing her scarf and coat and shoes? WHY?!" The question comes from my small man wrestling on the couch with his dad. It's one of his favorite games to play. "Wrestle with me, Daddy!" He's as joyful as he gets, rumbling around dictating points and I wins and no, that's a tie. As happy as he gets so long as we're all there, together, in the room. "Mommy is going to go finish up some work, Buddy." The answer send him screaming to the kitchen. "NO! I WANNA GO WIFF YOU! NO! I WANNA GO, TOO!" It's been weeks now that I've kept this schedule, working while the children sleep, on weekends, after my other job. I've explained to the children that sometimes you have to work a lot....

You can now experience the new Premium Economy Class. Our fleet of Boeing 747-8s will be the first to be fitted with the new Premium Economy seats – we expect these aircraft to fly from Frankfurt to the following destinations: Bangalore, Beijing, Buenos Aires, Chicago, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, Mexico City, São Paulo, Seoul, Tokyo and Washington, D.C.
From the end of January 2015 we expect our first Airbus 340-600s with Premium Economy Class on board to take off from Munich to Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo; as well as serving Seoul from 11 February 2015.
From the end of April 2015 the A380s will then probably fly from Frankfurt to Delhi, Houston, Johannesburg, Miami, New York, San Francisco, Shanghai and Singapore. From 12 May 2015 our A340-600 fleet will fly from Munich to Los Angeles, Mexico City, Newark, Beijing, San Francisco and São Paolo.*
We anticipate that you will be able to enjoy the benefits of the new Premium Economy Class on the entire Lufthansa long-haul fleet by late summer 2015*.
The benefits of the new Premium Economy Class:
More baggage
You can check in two bags, each weighing up to 23 kg, free of charge – and therefore enjoy double the free baggage allowance you have in Economy Class.**
More to look forward to
You will be greeted on board with a welcome drink.
More personal space
Look forward to spacious and comfortable seating with up to 50% more space: the specially developed seat with its own armrest, fold-out table, adjustable backrest and footrest offers more comfort and more legroom. You will never sit more than one seat away from the aisle.
More entertainment
Experience our extensive in-flight entertainment programme on an 11- or 12-inch monitor built into the seat in front. The programme is operated by a remote control. There is also a power outlet at your seat and a wide choice of magazines.
More refreshment
A separate water bottle at your seat ensures you can enjoy a refreshing drink whenever you wish.
More delight
Take your time choosing from the menu card and enjoy your meal served on china tableware especially designed for Premium Economy Class.
More relaxation
At your seat you will find a bag with useful travel accessories for a relaxing time on board.
More exclusivity
For a fee you can enjoy the benefits of almost all the Lufthansa Business Lounges and the Lufthansa Welcome Lounge in Frankfurt.**
