Lowes Coupons, Sales, Coupon Codes, 10% Off – January 2015
Posted By Kim On January 24, 2015 @ 6:30 am In Coupon Home Page,Deals / Coupons,Quick Tips | 112 Comments
One Project Closer is not affiliated with Lowe's, but we find ourselves shopping there quite often! The friendly guys above are from our local store. If you're a DIYer like us, then saving money is important to you. Here are a few ways YOU can save at Lowe's.
Visit Lowe's' savings page [1] for current deals, sorted by department. You can frequently find 10% off or more on appliances, deep discounts on particular tool brands, and sales on everything from painting supplies to construction materials.
With Lowe's' Free In-Store Pickup [2] option, you can order what you want online – taking advantage of their online-only offers – and then have your items shipped to your local store for free!00
Ask your friends and family for Lowe's gift cards [3] for the next holiday or event. Or get a Lowe's credit card [4] and choose between getting 5% off any time or getting special financing options for your purchases
1. Lowe's Moving: Lowes' Moving Site [5] will email you a free online printable coupon (and mail you a copy) for 10% off any in-store purchase up to $5000.00. If you are moving or recently moved, just follow that link and fill out the form. It is right off the main page.
This is the standard 10% off coupon you see advertised in most places, and the easiest one to get online. This coupon provides up to $500 back. Note that some other sites have recently cropped up on the web that are downloading a picture of the coupon from this site and allowing you to "re-print" it from their site. If you look carefully at the image, you will notice is has a unique bar code. The store computers record this bar code at the first use and invalidate it for future use. (If they didn't do this, you could just photocopy it over and over again. That's not what Lowe's intended when they offered the moving deal in the first place).
2. Military Discounts: Lowe's has a policy to give United States Armed Service Members 10% off all year long. You need a military ID at the time of check out and you cannot use the self service lanes. Obviously, this is a great way to honor our servicemen and women and we are excited to see Lowe's take this step. Based on information available online, this discount cannot be used in conjunction with other discounts, such as the moving coupon deal.
1. Post Office: You can sometimes find a 10% off Lowe's coupon in the change of address form package at the post office. We suspect this may be where the coupon sellers are getting them from in the first place, perhaps taking these packets by the hundreds. Sometimes these change of address packets have Home Depot coupons instead of Lowe's coupons in them.
2. E-Bay: You can sometimes find 10% off coupons for Lowe's for sale on E-bay and other auction sites. This is more of a hassle, and again, unless it is an individual seller, the source of the coupons may be dubious. You need to be especially careful of coupons that appear to be photocopied, will be delivered via email, or have a single use bar code on them. It is very possible that these coupons are being sold to multiple people and that they will not actually work when you get into the store.
Lowe's has a superb return policy! They allow you to return most items purchased on Lowes.com [6] at your local store within 90 days. Some categories have restrictions, though. For example, major appliances only get seven days (and then you have to use the appliance's warranty), and outdoor power equipment gets 30 days.
For more information, visit the web site and look up the return policy details before making your purchase.

Archers Of Loaf's Matt Gentling on cult status, the reunion, and witnessing a stabbing on the road
Photo by Sandlin Gaither |
Archers of Loaf are the very definition of the '90s stalwart alt-rock band. They toiled in relative obscurity while many of their contemporaries made it big and ruled the airwaves for a good decade or so. Those who knew them loved them like a small child loves a puppy: with a bursting-at-the-seams excitement that refuses to be reigned in by any words or actions. Those who didn't -- and, sadly, there were many -- missed out on what was likely the hidden gem in the '90s alt-rock landscape.
More arty and obtuse the Big Three (Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins) and even more underdoggy than the bands who deliberately positioned themselves as such (Pavement, Dinosaur Jr., Superchunk, et al), AoL have seen all four of their studio albums re-released in the last year to higher praise than when they were first released -- impressive since they were critics' darlings from the beginning.
Listening to them now, away from the clatter of two decades ago, brings the realization that, in the end, much of their work had more in common with British bands like Gang of Four and Wire (their 1993 debut, Icky Mettle, in particular), with their vaguely angular hooks and noisy passages, than with the thunderous sludge being peddled out of the Pacific Northwest. It has aged approximately 342 times better, to boot. Sometimes vindication for your actions takes a little while. Ahead of Archers of Loaf's Saturday and Sunday gigs at 400 Bar, Gimme Noise talked with AoL's bassist Matt Gentling about cult status vs. widespread popularity, and a stabbing they witnessed in Florida.

Planets distances from each other
Name: N/A Status: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
Why are planets so far from each other?
Well, the planets are pretty far apart compared to their sizes - the size of a planet is generally a few thousand miles (maybe 10s of thousands for the big ones) while the distances between them are tens or hundreds of millions of miles. Why that huge factor of a thousand or so? It probably has a lot to do with the average density of matter in the original dust-cloud that (we think) formed the solar system and the sun itself. There really is not much matter out there in space (it is "empty"!) and even the big nebulas astronomers like to photograph are still very much less dense than the planets. If there are nebulas that are much denser than the one our solar system started, they might have planets closer together... On the other hand, there could be something else going on. The gravitational interactions between the planets even as far apart as they are still pretty complex, and the solar system is really not all that stable - maybe if we had extra planets closer together long ago, they would have been ejected from the solar system by now.

2008 Honda Accord Coupe and Sedan
bvdj84 Posts: 1,721In regards to the stereo,
I have the 06 SE Accord, and I Memphis Audio speakers installed all the way around. That was the best decision that I made. It is truly amazing. These speakers are awesome. I was skeptical at first, but they are very efficient, and work on minimal power, I just never heard of them til I saw them in the showroom. It was like night and day difference! The standard factory system speakers have no character at all. Look at your trunk speakers magnets, they are so so small! they are so flimsy. That is what is installed all the around.
When I get my 08 Accord, I will have to have the Memphis audio speakers installed! I'll probably leave the factory sub there. So anyone wanting to upgrade, seriously, I love sound systems, and own high end speakers, and these Memphis Audio speakers are wonderful!! You cannot go wrong! They very efficient, look at the rating on the specs.
I had them bought and installed for $400, add an amp, and you have an amazing system. But, I will tell you, that these speakers do take awhile to break-in, but after that, WOW! It totally sounds amped, but its not.
They are very clean sounding, and have awesome separate tweeters. These are "REAL" speakers, unlike the factory speakers. When you see the factory pulled out, you'll literally laugh. You'll know why the sound the way they do. -

colloquor Posts: 482If the trunk lid has the holes for the fitting of the liner's attachment buttons - which it should, as economies of scale for the stamping of the trunk would tend to dictate - you should be able to order the liner for an LX, LX-P, etc. directly from your dealer's Parts Department.
This is another case of Honda's bean-counters at work. Honda's not alone in this, as every manufacturer is looking at ways to pull costs out of a car. -
robertsmx Posts: 5,525I think the definition of Korean copy is more along the lines of copying the look. For example, take the new Elantra. Do you see a strong resemblance to VW Jetta's rear? Or, is that style somehow an evolution of older Hyundai design?
In case of new Accord, the association is largely with two design elements. One the upward tapering of the tail lamps, but that is a contemporary design feature. Some follow the inside of the C-pillar (seen in Toyota/Lexus), and others follow the outside line of the C-pillar (1996-2000 CL, 2003-2005 Accord, 2005-2008 RL, 2005-2008 Sonata, 2006-2008 5-series, 2008 C-class, 2008 Accord sedan). There you have one similarity with 5-series.
The other is the kink on the C-pillar. Honda has used them on and off since the 1970s, but rarely on the Accord. 1996-2000 Civic had it (just put thick chrome on it, and you would have something very close).
BMW has almost always used the kink since they made it one of their design elements, so much so that it has literally become a BMW signature since the Hoffmeister days. But that doesn't mean they started it. You could draw similarities to the kink on Model-T as well.
Combine the two elements (C-pillar kink) and tapering of the tail lamp, and it comes as no surprise that many see similarities. Infiniti G35 has the kink too. In fact, if you look at new Nissan GT-R pictures, you might see C-pillar similarities with Acura TL (the shape of the glass around the c-pillar). This doesn't mean Nissan copied Acura. You might also see shape of rear glass in 350Z (and G35) being virtually identical to that from first generation Audi TT. And Honda put a thin amber line running full length along the bottom of the headlamps in 1998 Accord, something we also saw in 1999 Audi TT (now Audi has taken it farther with LEDs, Honda, as always, keeps changing things). Things like these happen!
Some copies are simply more blatant than others. You want to see one of the most blatant ones (even worse than Kia Amanti), look here. -
robertsmx Posts: 5,525as every manufacturer is looking at ways to pull costs out of a car
Yep. The new Accord LX-P has a lot of features that my 1998 Accord EX-L doesn't (except for leather and moon roof). And it costs $1K less than my EX-L did ten years ago. So, prices have largely stayed the same despite inflation, refinements and content. So, somewhere costs have to be reduced. But then, my 1998 EX-L doesn't have the liner either. -
colloquor Posts: 482No one is being a troll, certainly not I, as everything I've heard regarding the Sonata, for example, is how Hyundai appears to have copied the previous generation Audi A6, which well it should since it was Hyundai's benchmark. Or, others have said Hyundai copied the previous generation Accord, and on and on. Why then do some, especially Hondaphiles, tend to get upset when a Honda product appears to look like another exterior design? If Honda patterns their exterior design from a brand of higher caliber - that's OK, but not from a perceived lower caliber brand. Ah, now I see . . . some of you guys are just simply incredulous.
Forums are just that - anyone can add their 2 cents worth to a discussion. This is not a "members only" discussion group.
Although the 2008 Accord's exterior does take on connotations of a 5-series BMW, I submit you park a Saturn L200 next to the 2008 Accord - side by side. The side profile and lines are almost identical, as well as the tail light assemblies. Check it out!
FWIW . . . I own a 2005 Honda Accord LX, 2007 Toyota Camry LE, and, yes, a Hyundai. But, since I own all three brands, at the very least, I try to be objective. -
robertsmx Posts: 5,525If things are put in the right order, then I think this discussion about look-alikes makes sense. So, let me ask you, what connotations of 5-series do you see in the Accord that you haven't in any Honda/Acura in the past?
As for Saturn L, let us take your word and park them side by side.
There are few design elements in common, the creases and the upward tapering of the tail lamps. But, I'm not sure what similarity do you find in the profile. There is more in common to that aspect in this Accord to 1998-2002 Accord except for the higher front.
Back to the crease, 2008 Accord isn't the first Honda/Acura to have it. This one closely mimics 2004+ TL in that regard, while others used a different design (CL, older TL, 1998-2002 Accord, 2003+ Accord, 2004+ TSX, 1996+ Civic, early 90s Legend and so on). In all cases, believe it or not, Honda has wrapped the crease around (I can bet you haven't noticed it). In a few cases, above the tail lamp/license plate (as is the case with 2008 Accord) and in most cases thru the license plate (even 1998 Accord has it).
What you see in the 2008 Accord is also seen in Audis and Mercedes. Are you now saying they too copied Saturn? How do you establish who copied who? The best one can do is go back generations and see the evolution. Try it. -
ykang Posts: 88I think the definition of Korean copy is more along the lines of copying the look. For example, take the new Elantra. Do you see a strong resemblance to VW Jetta's rear? Or, is that style somehow an evolution of older Hyundai design?
Keep believe what you want to believe!!!

brunna Posts: 53Thanks for your impressions. I have not written it off yet, as I said I love Honda products. My 94 was just lighter on its feet, reminiscent of my 89 Integra, maybe that's what I miss. But alas, I have grown since then (now 6'2", 225) and my family has grown (3 young boys), so maybe the extra room isn't a bad thing.
Coincidently, I replaced the speakers in my 94 with Eclipses all around, added a JBL sub in a box in the trunk with an additional amp, because the soundstage and low end from the stock system was awful. I pretty much have replaced all the stereos in my cars (including a 99 Infiniti I30 with the Bose system) until I ran into the new odd-sizing and custom dash mounts that car companies, including Honda, are doing now. It infuriates me that I would have to lose the integrated look of the original dash, so I was glad that the 08 system was a step in the right direction at least.
Now I am pondering stepping up in class to the new CTS. I didn't get to drive it, but the interior is simply to die for. Cooled seats! You kidding me! Why didn't they do that years ago? And the HUGE sunroof - NICE! -

stickguy Posts: 15,855Frankly, I only care if it looks good on it's own, and not what cars it resembles from certain angles.
I also saw what I think is my first one on the road, in an owners hands. Looked pretty sharp. Same silver as my '05, but it looked a lot nicer (classier/more expensive or something).
FOr the trunk, it is quite likely they only have 1 trunk lid stamping, so you likely could buy one and put it in. Or, maybe try some type of Dynamat (sp?) I know they have sound insullation for under carpets, etc. Maybe that would work?2015 Hyundai Sonata 2.4i Limited Tech (mine), 2013 Acura RDX (wife's) and 2007 Volvo S40 (daughters college car)
bvdj84 Posts: 1,721My dealer is slowly getting a bigger lot of 08 accords, that good! But, I have not seen any of them move since they have arrived. Only about a few have had a "sold" on them. Thats it! Also, I laugh at it, because those that are buying them, are more than likely paying top dollar for them. Although I have seen deals on the forums, but it is not typical.
I think once, they have a full lot, and the newness wears off a bit, it'll get much better. Dealers are drooling all over these. They see $$$ signs! Honda, needs to get these cars moving, if they want to promote them, make quota! They better not wait too long to offer an incentive. Dealers need to realize that too, when they sell a car, and its out on the road, its a like a advertisement sign, bringing others in. They need to get their stock rotating. The 08's sitting on the lot is not gaining them any profit, but getting something for them helps. I am totally going to wait til next spring, when lease numbers are better! -
dairyshick Posts: 129Any talk of them putting the manual transmission back into the V6 Sedan in the next year or two? I'm still years off from a new car, but if they decide to go back to that again, I think it would be a no-brainer as my next purchase.
What would be even cooler is if they ever came out with an Accord Si. I doubt it would ever happen because it would chew too much into the TL and TSX, but there's always hoping! -
06nighthawkv6 SE TexasPosts: 55Let the new 08s that are collecting dust(and water) on the lot sit on the lots and rot so the dealership can take the hit especially when 2008 rolls around and the re-designed 09 TL and TSX will be coming up... Who cares about ugly Honda Accord sedan and coupe...Honda didn't step up and make the Accord extreme enough, both in looks and powertrain so that is why they are not moving, not because there is some newness factor that people can't get over. The style is not original and the powertrain, although great against maybe GM, is only average for Honda especially due to the fact that the outgoing 244 hp J30 performs the same as the new 3.5 liter 268 hp. Ohh, and noone can see "Ace structure" to really give a hoot! All they need to know is ACE is why their Honda is so ugly and remember Americans are the most shallow. That and "Honda didn't "step up" due to Acura TSX and the TL. duh.
jamese777 Posts: 18"Maybe they are concentrating on getting rid of 2007s for now. Many people are going to the dealers and "looking" at the 2008s, so buyers are there for the right price."
Taking a look at the "Prices Paid and Buying Experience" thread is informative on a car that has been out for a month! Most people aren't interested in being early adopters and will wait for the newness to wear off a bit to get a better deal. That's what I'm doing. -
thegraduate Posts: 9,731Honda didn't step up and make the Accord extreme enough,
Remember my friend, the more extreme you get, the more polarizing you get (extreme designs that come to mind are when BMW first introduced the current 7-series sedan, and Scion's xB). Some may love it, but some will HATE it. I'd guess more people buy the Accord based on its actual attributes and reputation than its styling. Honda chose to try not to disgust people with overstyling and instead chose a more reserved design that will age better and attract buyers rather than distract them. To me, the TL is starting to look a little tired; sort of how the first-gen CTS is getting.
I'd bet more people would be alienated by a radical design than would buy the thing.

Foreign Nurses. Don't give up! I passed my test!! So can you. :)
3Feb 4, '12 by Julia WheelerI just found out today that I Passed my NCLEX-RN! I am a foreign educated nurse and I passed at my second attempt. My first test was really devastating. I had to go through the 6 hours and I could only answer 215 questions. I failed. But I kept my faith and started studying for the next attempt. Last Tuesday when I tried again I knew that it would be hard and It was...More than half of my test were SATA's questions, had one chart and picture question. Sometimes I had 3 SATA's in a row. At that point I knew that I was doing good.When the computer shut off at the 75th question I couldn't believe it! I was sure that I passed. I went home and tried the "PVT trick" and I got a "good pop up". Today (2 business days later) My name was at the BON. So the trick really works. Don't waste your money paying for the "Quick results". Just try the trick and later check at the BON it is for free!!
I would like to thank all of you who posted good information, shared the "tricks" and experiences.
Keep you faith in our Lord Jesus and DON'T GIVE UP!!
Best wishes for all.
1Feb 4, '12 by Nessa1998Julia, Congratulation!
I am a foreign educated graduate too! I am still struggling in passing the nclex. What kind of nclex books review did you used & how long did you prepared for the exam? Did you also sign up for online review?Julia Wheeler likes this. -
4Feb 4, '12 by Julia WheelerI used the Saunders Review (loved it! it comes with a CD full of tests that you can pratice at home)I used the LaCharity (ok) and Kaplan book (wich is not really good). I paid for the Kaplan review wich is not cheap and it was ok. I had access on line to the Q Bank wich was the only thing that made my money worth. I got many tips from here. People like to post pretty intersting stuff!! Really helpful. This is my own opinion. You may like another book based on your own perspective though.
I studied for two months to take the first test and I failed, then for the second time I studied for 3 months. When you are studing in a second language you need to slow down and make sure that you really get it.
Hope it was helpful for you. Good luck on your test. 2012 will be a very blessed year for all of us! -
2Feb 5, '12 by purplechicxiiiHi Julia! Thank you for sharing your story (which I can truly relate). =) I'm a foreign-trained nurse too and I failed my 1st attempt last 2010. I'm preparing for my 2nd try on Mar 9, hoping to finally pass it (just like you). And oh Congratulations! Good luck to everyone testing. Keep studying! We can do this! To God be all the glory.jpinay28 and Julia Wheeler like this.
1Feb 5, '12 by daisy777Julia, How many question did you do? I understood, you worked with Kaplan Q-bank and Saunders? And how many hours did you spend per day? I have unsuccessful attempt, and preparing again. You talk about Kaplan book .Is it short review?
Will very appreciate to know your opinion about kaplan stuff. Thank you .Julia Wheeler likes this. -
1Feb 5, '12 by pikapinkCongratulations Julia!!! I'm a foreign grad too and failed Nclex before. Now I'm preparing for the test again. I was looking at my files in my computer and found many NCLEX programs. I just wanna ask if the Kaplan Q trainer that people are talking about is a program? It has Test 1-7, because I have it. and i was planning to enroll in the Kaplan review course this month. Anyway, good luck in starting your career as a nurse!Julia Wheeler likes this.

Gorditas Doña Lidia is the Mrs. Garrett of Federal Boulevard
Mark Antonation Familiar tacos al pastor at Gorditas Doña Lidia.
In A Federal Case, I'll be eating my way up Federal Boulevard - south to north - within Denver city limits. I'll be skipping the national chains and per-scoop Chinese joints, but otherwise I'll report from every vinyl booth, walk-up window and bar stool where food is served. Here's the report on this week's stop...
The owners of Tacos y Salsas recently revamped the location at 1201 South Federal, giving it a new name, some fresh paint and a pared-down menu emphasizing gorditas and caldos -- hearty Mexican soups. The updated taqueria, now called Gorditas Doña Lidia, is more of a spinoff than a clone. Tacos y Salsas is like one of those '80s sitcoms with the cute kids and an ensemble cast that proved to be too big or popular for a single half-hour a week, so one or more of the cast soon moved on to star in their own show -- but the writing, the gags and the timing of the laugh track remained familiar and safe. Doña Lidia has her own show now, but the creators haven't strayed too far from the formula.

- Las Islitas gives a taste of Nayarit seafood specialties
Despite the focus on gorditas and caldos (menudo is generally available most nights, ladled up with or without a pig foot), much of the standard Tacos y Salsas atmosphere and menu appear here. The salsa bar offers the same variety of green and red sauces -- tangy, hot and earthy, with various mixtures of chiles, lime, cilantro, and other herbs and spices -- along with whole roasted jalapeños, diced onion, slivered radish, and the trademark spills and crumbs that grace every Tacos y Salsas salsa bar. Missing are some of the combo plates and maybe some seafood dishes. And the list of marinated, grilled and slow-cooked meats available as savory stuffing for the gorditas and tacos might be somewhat abbreviated from the master menu available just down the street.Mark Antonation Gorditas with chicharrones and desebrada.
I'm intentionally hedging here, because like that sitcom spinoff with its numerous guest appearances, cast changes and crossovers with the original show, Doña Lidia's never seems to stick to the same script, or even prepare the same dish in a consistent style. Sometimes the gorditas are the fried, orange-hued shells that seem more akin to light, thin pita bread. Other times, you might be served the traditional, dense, almost leathery masa-based gordita. Sometimes the server will offer you an option, other times not. It's not a big problem, though, because both versions have their charm. The first type of gorditas seems a little Americanized and fast-foodish, but are tender and slightly soaked in fat and make for a decadent -- if not exactly healthful -- wrapper to go with the equally fatty meats nestled within. The second variety is chewy, thick and a touch crumbly, and the deep, rustic flavor of dried corn provides a homey and satisfying base for conveying tangy sauces and spices.Mark Antonation Doña Lidia's salsa bar.
The salsa bar also seems a little incomplete, with gaps in the colorful array of steel pans. I'm never sure whether one of the cooks is about to restock with new and fresh choices, or if the salsa bar is just too big and so always appears spare and unattended. On a good day though, the options available are some of the best in town.
The meats are also a little hit-or-miss. The crisp, tangy pastor has always been there for me, but the carnitas have been absent every time I've tried to order them, so my backup -- and an excellent alternative -- has been the succulent desebrada (shredded beef), although running out of carnitas still could be a hanging offense in many parts of Colorado. I've also been presented with two different versions of chicharrones, one of which was a soggy, flavorless mess that seemed like fried pork rinds soaked in water, while the other was tender, slow braised skin with loads of porky flavor.

IBD and Environmental Triggers- Vegetable Gardens Vs Genes
Crohn's and Ulcerative colitis are understood to have a number of genetic related risks, but increasingly scientists are having to accept that our double helix does not predict our health risks except in a few single gene diseases such as cystic fibrosis, the haemoglobinopathies. In fact the enormous endeavours and resources spent pursuing this elucidation have produced surprisingly modest practical benefits.
Even when dozens of genes have been linked to a trait, both the individual and cumulative effects are surprisingly small and nowhere near enough to explain earlier estimates of heritability.[1]
The recent discovery by a New Zealand group that there are a number of childhood factors associated with the development of Inflammatory Bowel Disease, further supports the concept that environment – in this case during childhood plays an important role in modulating the risk for developing these conditions. The rising incidence of these diseases over the last 50 years also supports the role of environment, as genes take many hundreds of years to change.[2]
This study looked at environmental exposure using a self administered questionnaire in 638 people with Crohn's, 653 with Ulcerative Colitis and 600 gender and age matched healthy controls, all from Canterbury New Zealand.
Risk Associations
- Individuals with a family history of IBD were most likely to develop the illness, with the risk increasing with the numbers of close family affected.
- Whilst this supports gene association, it also supports the role of shared environmental effectors.
- Positive association linked to smoking for CD but a negative association for UC.
- Higher social class and Caucasian also was linked to risk for UC and CD
- A childhood vegetable garden was negatively associated, suggesting exposure to microbes as well as nutrient rich foods may account for this strong negative association.
- Being breast fed for more than 3 months also conferred a negative association.
The hygiene hypothesis continues to produce strands of credible associations between environmental exposures and gastrointestinal ecology. As western societies reduce exposure to helminths, and bacteria some of the essential microbial manipulation of the mucosal immune system is lost, allowing the development of inflammation related diseases. These in turn press on genes to express latent health risks.

It's time for Greg Jamison to put his (or other people's) money where his mouth is.
Yesterday the city of Glendale approved a re-worked 20-year arena lease with Jamison that would have the city pay him $320 million over that time for him to run the arena. They had, in the past, turned down a deal that would pay Jamison $324 million, because apparently that would've sunk the city. $320M? Let the good times roll.
Jamison has said that with the approval of the deal, the purchase of the team could be wrapped up in the next 30-60 days. He'd be buying the team from the NHL, who currently runs it (with assistance from a couple 25 million dollar payments from the city of Glendale), for 170 million dollars. He says he has the investors to help him get there, and just needed this to go through to be able to pull the trigger.
David Shoalts of the Globe and Mail added these details:
The lease is not as heavily front-loaded as the previous version. The first year's payment to Jamison, ostensibly to manage the arena, was reduced from $17-million to $11-million. There are also penalties if Jamison does not bring in at least 30 non-hockey events per year.
But the city of 250,000 still has to pay Jamison a total of $60-million in years two through five of the lease. There will be a reduction in the first year's payment, since it will be pro-rated because of the NHL lockout, which is about to enter its fourth month.
But the city will be fine, right?
Acting city manager Horatio Skeete said the Coyotes lease will mean $4-million to $6-million in cuts will have to be made in the short-term, with a total of $20-million in cuts necessary within five years. If there is no NHL team, Skeete said, the cuts would be reduced to $12-million over five years.
Ahhh, who really needs firefighters and police in a gun-happy desert state, amirite? (Oh crap, everyone? …Moving on.)
The vote passed 4-2, with one of the two nays coming from outgoing mayor Elaine Scruggs, who's quotes are basically a step away from saying "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!" She's not what the kids would describe as "down" with the Coyotes being in town, for financial reasons.
I spent the last three years of my life in Phoenix, and attended sevearal Coyotes games. Please note that as a hockey writer, I said "several" over three years, which isn't that impressive. That's because I lived in the Tempe/Chandler area (y'know, where the population is), and I didn't enjoy driving an hour (depending on traffic) to a game I couldn't have a pint at (because I'm not getting on Sheriff Joe Arpaio's highways with so much as a beer in me). I'd rather watch from home.
However, I can tell you this: once you get to a Coyotes game, it is a blast. Westgate Plaza, the area that surrounds the arena, is terrific. Jobing.com Arena is excellent. And, there is a real core of fans there, who know the game and attend religiously. I'm interested to see if that core swells with some stability there.
As silly as everyone thinks the city of Glendale is for scrapping to keep the 'Yotes, I have zero doubt that their huge, Vegas-esque investement in the Plaza would go right to hell without the team. The pubs and restaurants are jammed on gamedays. While it may cost them some dough up front, in the long-term they need that team to survive.
Once this deal goes through, it's on to the marketers. The building is where it is in the city (on farmland north of Phoenix). The team is what it is on the ice (solid, well-coached). And things aren't going anywhere. They've got to find a way to fill that building with some consistency (may I suggest some shuttles, perchance?).
If this is happening – and it appears that it is – Glendale has a lot of work to do to make things right.

Is the window open? This is the most obvious, and least controllable, factor in a company's decision to attempt an IPO. The opportunities for IPOs are often discussed in terms of "windows"--the window is either open or shut. During the third and fourth quarters of 1998, when the Dow took its precipitous 1,700-point drop, the window was tightly shut. In 1976, there were just 16 IPOs completed. The window, if not shut, wasn't open more than a crack. At the dawning of the second half of 1999, the window was open, as the market was receptive, even eager for IPOs. So the first lesson about timing your IPO is to make your attempt when the window is open. But that's just for openers. Other factors that will enhance your chances of completing a successful IPO include:
- Your industry is in favor. This is almost self-enforcing. That is, if your industry is not in favor, you'll have a hard time even getting an appointment with an investment banker to discuss an IPO, let alone pull one off. Presently, energy companies are out of favor. So are financial-services companies. So are aviation-services companies. If you run a business in any one of these sectors, it's not time for your IPO.
A slightly improved position is being in an industry that is not out of favor. Presently, application software companies, though not as in vogue as they were in the late 1980s and early 1990s, are at least considered palatable. Of course, the best position is to try an IPO when your industry is in favor. For instance, if you run an Internet company, the timing for your IPO couldn't be better.
For better or worse, Reflective defies any easy industry category, meaning it can't be hurt or helped by any such industry favor. The company will have to place more emphasis on other areas, such as underlying markets, management teams or financial performance.
- You are about to turn the corner to profitability. Companies sometimes go public when they're posting losses. You hear about them, not because it's so common, but because it's so uncommon. But there is far less publicity surrounding the slow death the stocks of these companies face, as quarter after quarter of losses pile up and investors lose all interest. It's far better to go public and report ever-improving earnings than it is to go public and report ever-narrowing losses.
Krentcil says that since Reflective is not an Internet company, where the above rules do not apply, the level of profitability will play a vital role in the firm's IPO decision-making process. "We might be able to entice an underwriter into doing a deal now," he says, "but with the better earnings we're projecting, we think we can get a much higher valuation in our deal by waiting a little longer."
- Your company has a layer of professional management in place. Going public is an incredible drain on a company's human resources. So if you're the in-house visionary who is also responsible for executing the strategy, monitoring that execution and tinkering with the strategy midstream--while selling all this to investors, keeping them updated, and feeling good about it--then your IPO is a 911 call waiting to happen.
At Reflective, Krentcil says he believes his team is in place. "Our board is complete, and we have the key marketing, legal, financial and sales positions filled."
The reason an incomplete management team spells disaster is that the growth an IPO is generally predicated upon can't occur when management takes its eye off the ball to keep investors happy. One software company went public in 1996 with a deal premised on getting the 1997 version of their sports entertainment software to market by the Christmas selling season. Senior management spent so much time executing the IPO that the product never made it to market. Today, the company doesn't even exist.
- There is a logical set of buyers for your deal. This is difficult to explain but is nonetheless an important concept with respect to the timing of your IPO. Specifically, does the nature of your business make your deal appropriate for institutional or retail investors, and is it appropriately sized for the buyers? For example, most biotechnology deals today are bought exclusively by institutional investors. Why? Because they are far too complex for individual investors to understand.
This institutional orientation means, however, that deals must be in the neighborhood of $25 million with a market capitalization (total shares outstanding times price) of at least $100 million. Therefore, if you need to raise $5 million for a biotechnology company, your timing is probably off, and your company needs to be much bigger before you attempt an IPO. On the other hand, Internet deals can be purely retail, meaning that even as a start-up in search of, say, $7.5 million, your timing is on, and you can probably pull off a deal.

"Have Two Ways Out"
It is important to have a home fire escape plan that prepares your family to think fast and get out quickly when the smoke alarm sounds. What if your first escape route is blocked by smoke or flames? That's why having two ways out is such a key part of your plan.
The following are facts presented by the NFPA:
- One home structure fire was reported every 85 seconds in 2010.
- Most fatal fires kill one or two people. In 2010, 19 home fires killed five or more people. These 19 fires resulted in 101 deaths. In 2010, U.S. fire departments responded to 369,500 home structure fires. These fires caused 13,350 civilian injuries, 2,640 civilian deaths, and $6.9 billion in direct damage.
According to an NFPA survey, only one-third of Americans have both developed and practiced a home fire escape plan.
- Almost three-quarters of Americans do have an escape plan; however, less than half actually practiced it.
- One-third of Americans households estimated they thought they would have at least 6 minutes before a fire in their home would become life threatening. The time available is often less. And only 8% said their first thought on hearing a smoke alarm would be to get out!
- Almost two-thirds (62%) of reported home fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms. Working smoke alarms cut the risk of dying in reported home fires in half. In fires considered large enough to activate the smoke alarm, hardwired alarms operated 92% of the time, while battery powered alarms operated only 77% of the time.
Cooking has been the leading cause of reported home fires and home fire injuries since 1990. Unattended cooking was by far the leading cause of these fires; Two-thirds of home cooking fires began with ignition of cooking materials, including food, cooking oil, fat, or grease.
- Cooking caused two of every five (42%) of reported home fires, roughly one of every seven (15% ) home fire deaths, and two of every five (37% ) home fire injuries, and 11% of direct property damage from home fires in 2010.
- Ranges accounted for the 58% of home cooking fire incidents. Ovens accounted for 16%.Children under five face a higher risk of non-fire burns associated with cooking than being burned in a cooking fire.90% of burns associated with cooking equipment resulted from contact with hot equipment or some other non-fire source.
Heating equipment was the leading cause of reported home fires in the 1980s and has generally ranked second since them. It is the second leading cause of home fire deaths. Fires involving heating equipment peak in December, January and February, as do deaths from these fires.
- The leading factor contributing to heating equipment fires was failure to clean, principally creosote from solid fueled heating equipment, primarily chimneys.
- Portable or fixed space heaters, including wood stoves, were involved in one-third (32%) of home heating fires and four out of five (79%) home heating deaths.

First, it is about the template. I am not a big fan of totally changing a theme (i know that changing it too much can bring headaches each time the script would get updated) but i believe that at least the colors should be changed. It would give some personality to the forum.
Second, some menu tabs dont redirect properly and until this will be fixed, perhaps you should consider disabling them.

The owner of the forum is aware of the issues you found. We have had serious problems with vBulletin upgrades and custom themes not working correctly. He is working to get the issues resolved, but this is not his full-time job so it takes time.
Disabling the non-working tabs is a good idea.

Well, if there is nothing wrong with the vBulletin installation, should be checked the .htaccess file, the Friendly URLs, the Site Name / URL / Contact Details [ *Component URL ] setting, and the links in the new menu system. I had some redirection problems on my vB due to a bad menu configuration.
I know this forum has extra features and the .htaccess file might contain more than the standard vBPS code ..anyway, i wont say a backup should always be made, as i am sure you guys know this already
I am sure that Rob will find this thread. I know he has some guys working on the problems. Thanks for the tips and welcome to the forum.
