Retailers aren't waiting until Black Friday to slash prices, but their tactics might not do much to boost sales. As the WSJ's Shelly Banjo notes, there's evidence that the earlier deals are just pulling forward the business from later shopping days—not adding to overall sales. As the share of Black Friday weekend sales that occurred on Thanksgiving increased to 15% last year from 7% the year before, the percentage of sales on Friday dropped to 59% from 66%. Black Friday retail sales last year declined for the first time in more than a decade, in part because more retailers opened on Thursday.
American companies are doing deals on the cheap. U.S. firms are paying just 19% more, on average, than their acquisition target's trading price one week before the deal was announced—the lowest takeover premium since at least 1995, writes CFOJ's Vipal Monga in today's Marketplace section. That's largely because of the cautious stance of corporate boards these days. Executives have to make calculations based on political uncertainty, industry cycles, a tepid economic recovery and expectations that the Fed's easy-money policies might soon tighten. "Companies think it's too uncertain a time to do major deals," said Robert Kindler, global head of M&A at Morgan Stanley.
U.S. companies are paying just 19% more, on average, than their acquisition target's trading price one week before the deal was announced. That's the lowest takeover premium since at least 1995.
Corporate-tax reform is back on the agenda. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D., Mont.) unveiled a two-stage plan that would first unwind the current system and then start over with a new one, the WSJ's John D. McKinnon reports. The plan would impose a temporary corporate tax on overseas profits at a rate of up to 20%—below the current 35% top rate. Next, the plan would begin moving the U.S. to a system that would no longer seek to tax some types of overseas income—putting it closer to the mainstream of developed nations.
Third-quarter earnings came in strong, but the results raised some red flags about future growth. Companies slashed their spending on factories, equipment and other performance-enhancing investments by 16% from year-earlier levels, write CFOJ's Maxwell Murphy and Vipal Monga and the WSJ's Neil Shah in today's Marketplace section. Almost 90% of the companies that have given financial forecasts for the final quarter of the year have prompted Wall Street analysts to lower their numbers. "Companies are reluctant to raise the bar," said John Butters, senior earnings analyst at FactSet.
Investors are swarming around Internet companies that don't make money. Snapchat, a two-year-old company with no sales and no business model, recently rejected a $3 billion buyout offer from Facebook, Evelyn M. Rusli and Douglas MacMillan report in this WSJ scoop. Co-founder Evan Spiegel is holding out because he hopes his company can get an even higher valuation.
AMR and US Airways got the green light for their merger after just a few concessions. Antitrust and airline-industry experts tell the WSJ that the settlement was a victory for the carriers, because it left the majority of their merger plan intact. US Airways and AMR, parent of American Airlines, agreed to give up space at several major airports. But they probably would have given up some of the slots anyway to consolidate operations after their merger. US Airways CEO Doug Parker told the Journal that the concessions were "not material enough to offset what we said the day we announced," which was that the merger would create more than $1 billion in total annual savings and revenue gains.
Write-downs from deals gone bad soared last year, but 2013 is turning out different. Suitors are paying the lowest premiums for target companies in nearly 20 years and stocks are trading near records, giving companies cover to avoid write-downs on the value of their assets, write CFOJ's Emily Chasan and Maxwell Murphy in today's Marketplace section. That's a big change from last year, when U.S. companies slashed the value of their past acquisitions by $51 billion because the deals didn't pan out as expected, according to a study set for release today.
THE WEEK AHEAD: Investors and analysts will be following Twitter closely as the company gets ready to go public this week. Twitter is expected to price its IPO on Wednesday evening and begin trading Nov. 7 on the New York Stock Exchange, Reuters reports. As the WSJ reports, Twitter's international operations were a major topic of questions during a pre-IPO "roadshow" meeting with investors last week. Three-fourths of its users are overseas. But only one-fourth of its revenue comes from non-U.S. advertisers. To Twitter, that is a "substantial opportunity" as it prepares to go public as soon as this week. But it will also be a big challenge to convert a global following into sales and profits.

Sit back and enjoy exceptional sound reproduction at an affordable price with the Pioneer S-IW831-LR 2-Way In-Wall Speaker (Pair); it will take your audio listening experience to a whole new level. This stylish series was designed for both professional and entertainment enthusiasts with the capability to deliver a full, clear, and tight sound response for applications where space is limited. Built with an 8" polypropylene driver, 1" soft-dome pivoting tweeter, and 100W of peak power, this speaker is an ideal solution for home theater, whole house audio systems, and anywhere quality, in-wall sound projection is required.
Moreover, it features Three Position Treble Contour Control, which adjusts the high-frequency output to your individual taste and listening style. It offers a space-saving flush-mount design (only 3-7/16" deep), accommodates standard 16" stud spacing, high-quality magnet structure, and a full range of audio frequencies to complement a variety of your audio selections. Also, its frame and grille can be painted to match any decor.
- Pivoting Tweeter Design
- It has the ability to direct the high frequencies toward your listening position by incorporating a unique pivoting tweeter. For optimal performance, the loudspeakers should be placed an equal distance from your listening position and separated so that the angle between them, at the listening position, is between 40 and 60 degrees.
- Tweeter Level Adjustment
- The output of the tweeter can be adjusted to compensate for speaker placement/listening positions that are less than ideal. The "0" position is designed to provide the smoothest frequency response on axis. If the high frequency response is considered to be too strong or too weak, the tweeter level can be increased ("+") or decreased ("-") to suit your listening preference.
- Flexibility and Placement
- With its space-saving design of only 3-7/16" mounting depth, this speaker offers you maximum flexibility of being able to install it anywhere.
- Frequency Response
- With a frequency response of 28Hz - 30KHz, this speaker reproduces a full sound range from deep bass tones to ultra-high frequencies.
- Ease of Installation
- Locate your speaker location, cut the drywall (1/4" - 1" rock), connect the speaker wires and mount the loudspeaker; it's that simple. This speaker includes a cutting template and integrated dog-ear brackets for retrofit applications.
- Paintable Frame and Grille
- Both the frame and grille can be painted to blend into the existing environment.
- Fixing Bracket
- For added security and peace of mind, this speaker offers the capability to attach a reinforced cable/wire (not supplied) to the rear panel fixing bracket, and secure it to the studs or beams of the walls/ceiling to prevent the speaker from falling by accident.

After three decades of teaching the game of golf, PGA professional Terry Shaffer has whittled improvement down to a few core concepts—and they probably aren't what you'd expect. More important than grip, posture, or even alignment—all crucial technical aspects, to be sure—enthusiasm and effective communication reign supreme with Terry. These attributes help golfers attain and surpass their goals for improvement, even when goals are set low, such as breaking 100, or really high, such as playing well enough to warrant two caddies. They've proved effective for Terry himself, too: when he's not giving lessons to students all along the East Coast, he serves as the Head Golf Professional for George Washington University. In 2012, Terry led the Colonials to their first-ever Atlantic 10 Championship crown, while earning himself Head Coach of the Year honors within the conference.
Run by three generations of DC locals, Bike and Roll sends pedalers into the nation's modern and historical capitol. Sightseers are outfitted with ETs with maps so they can undertake self-guided tours along the National Mall, which is lousy with landmarks. To break with the hustle, cyclists can explore one of the city?s many meandering bike paths including the Capital Crescent Trail and Rock Creek Trail. The company?s line of tandem bikes and Trek comfort hybrids make for smooth rides along the flat terrain of the capital.
For a more itineraried experience, guided tours spirit groups through the historic sights. Local story-tellers regale cyclists with tales about the Capitol Building, Lincoln Memorial, the White House, and Mount Vernon, the home where George Washington lived after hatching from the egg incubated in the Statue of Liberty's torch.
Bike and Roll's professional mechanics also repair bikes, including fixing flat tires and performing regular tune-ups. They can even loan patrons a new Trek comfort hybrid bike to use while their bike is in the shop.
Sticks and stones may break some bones, but not if they?re directed toward one of Capital MMA & Elite Fitness?s students. In a team-oriented environment, the studio?s instructors teach key mixed-martial-arts moves such as grappling, striking, and wrestling and supplement the training with classes in specific fighting styles, such as Brazilian jiu-jitsu and muay thai. Guests looking for a practical crash course in self-defense learn snippets from each technique in self-defense classes, learning methods for staying aware of surroundings, fending off attackers, and freeing themselves from the grip of King Kongs. Some women-only classes are also available.
The studio's CrossFit program, alternatively, boosts athleticism without combat, through a multi-faceted regimen of Olympic weightlifting, cardio exercise, and custom diets. Beyond group classes, the center offers private lessons and seminars, which allow its students?both children to adults?to learn with focused guidance.
UFC Gym?s fight-centric gyms ditch the polished look of wood-floored workout studios for gritty, competitive spaces filled with 150-pound punching bags and intense workouts. Like a baker molding gingerbread men, UFC Gym sculpts six-packs with boxing, kickboxing, and mixed-martial-arts classes. Although instructors and students agree that the gym?s atmosphere may enkindle intimidation in first-time attendees, most experience boosted self-confidence after conquering their first class. Private training sessions further stoke courage with workouts that leave patrons with the exhilaration of having survived 12 rounds in the ring or five minutes in a high-school lunchroom.
Since 1958, Bicycle Pro Shop has helped find a matching mount for everyone from little kids just learning to pedal to United States presidents. The staff of experienced technicians—all avid cyclists themselves, including the owner, Serge, who spent 10 years as a competitive cyclist in France—oversees a stock of hybrids and road bikes from brands such as Cannondale, Scott, and Giant. In the service center, mechanics tighten up loose screws with thorough tune-ups and perform meticulous adjustments of minor yet important details such as the angle of the saddle and the crispness of the baseball cards in the spokes.

For one brief moment in time the walls Billie had built around her heart tumbled, though she believed their fiery passion would forever be no more than a bittersweet memory.

Blue Ivy Carter is the first child of hip-hop's most powerful pair, Jay-Z and Beyonce. Her existence was announced and confirmed by mommy dearest during her performance at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2011. The fetus immediately started following in her parents' footsteps by making headlines and breaking records when the news of Queen B's bump sparked more than 8,868 tweets per second. She was born at Lenox Hill Hospital. Her first name is said to be inspired by Hova's favorite color and the word can be found in three of his CD titles so far. Ivy is widely thought to represent the Roman numeral version of four, which has played a big part in the lives' of both parents. Both of their birthdays fall on the 4th, they were married on April 4, Beyonce's recent album was titled 4 and the parents have matching tattoos of IV on their wedding ring fingers. She also quickly entered the family business. Less than a week after she was born, she became the youngest artist to chart as B.I.C.'s crying is featured on dad's "Glory," cameoed in Bey's HBO documentary and joined mama on her Mrs. Carter Show world tour with her own director's chair and Timberlands. She's already getting used to the good life as well — cruising on yachts, staying on private islands, dining in Paris and playing with a diamond-encrusted Barbie she allegedly received for her first birthday.

Richard Dawson won an Emmy Award in 1978 for best game show hostRichard Dawson, the English-born actor and TV host who found fame in the US at the helm of game show Family Feud and in sitcom Hogan's Heroes, has died.
A former husband of actress Diana Dors, Dawson was 79.
Born in Gosport, Hampshire, he played Corporal Peter Newkirk in World War II comedy Hogan's Heroes for six years.
He became a panelist on TV show Match Game before hosting Family Feud for 10 years. Family Feud was copied in the UK under the name Family Fortunes.
His son Gary wrote on Facebook on Saturday: "It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you that my father passed away this evening from complications due to esophageal cancer.
"He was surrounded by his family. He was an amazing talent, a loving husband, a great dad, and a doting grandfather. He will be missed but always remembered."
Dawson hosted a spoof episode between Ronald Reagan, played by Johnny Carson, and the Queen (Rose Carr)
After starting his career as a stand-up comedian, Dawson married the English pin-up Dors in 1959. The couple settled in California but he was devastated when she walked out on him and they divorced in 1967.
By then, he was known as the Cockney prisoner of war in Hogan's Heroes, which ran on CBS from 1965 to '71.
He became Family Feud's host when it launched on the ABC network in 1976 and won a daytime Emmy Award in 1978 for best game show host.
At its height, Family Feud was one of the most popular programmes on US TV, airing 11 times a week – five in daytime and six in the evening.
Known for giving the female contestants a kiss, he met his second wife Gretchen when she appeared on the programme with her family in 1981.

Thank you for posting and welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions.
We appreciate your effort posting in this forum. Is it only happening to a phone call? How about text message? Were you able to make a phone call and send SMS? Where and when did you purchase your phone? Where are you currently located? What error message are you getting? Do you have a stable signal?
Having said that you have tried using multiple SIM cards, are those SIM card works on a different phone? Try to reboot your phone by going to Menu > Settings > Restore factory settings > Restore. Then, enter your security code.
Let us know the outcome.

Your phone does not support the frequencies in the USA because you have a Dual-Band phone on 900/1800 MHz. You would need a phone which supports 1900 MHz, and even better 850 MHz as well.

Hello, Alshaya.
Thank you for your response. Abi99 is correct. There are some limitations when it comes to frequency supported by the phone. It may work in the country where you purchased it but not in the USA.
If you're going to purchase a new phone make sure to check its specifications, especially the frequency it is supporting.

Hi everyone, I'm new to peonies, and just got some bare roots from mail order. These are two tree peonies, and one herbaceous peony. In our place we already had two blizzards, but it's supposed to get warmer again(30s-50sF) in the coming two weeks. I was wondering if I should plant them in the ground, or pot them up and over winter in garage and plant next fall?
Also, I ordered one tree peony but got two tree peony looking plants... Is this commen? Should I plant two of them in one hole? Any of your help will be so much appreciated!!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
As long as you can work your soil go ahead and plant. Plant the two tree peonies separately. Depending on where you ordered the tree peonies from at least one nursery will send extra plants. Put a light mulch on the herbaceous but you may want to mound mulch completely over the tree peonies except leaving the very top clear. As the weather warms next spring gradually remove the mulch. |

Hi maifleur, Thank you so much for your reply!!! And thanks for the mulching tips! I will start my digging and planting tomorrow. I ordered them from Idlewild Farm, turned out one of the tree peonies was a gift plant. I won't be able to know what it is until it blooms. What a nice surprise! Happy gardening, |
If the company did not provide a name, either as a label on the plant or on the invoice it is probably a seedling with no name. However Fen Dan Bai, Phoenix White, P. Osti, same plant family is being sent by some nurseries. It appears that this is a species family that comes true from seeds. There are variations in the color but flower will be white with maybe a blush or streaks of pastel pink or green. The plant grows for me to about 3-4 feet tall with the flowers held above the foliage. A very nice plant and one of my favorites. I love receiving seedlings because you never know what the plant will do. Some of the most beautiful flowers I have had came from a now deceased tree peony that were semi-double peach. |
- Posted by deereyebrow (My Page) on Thu, Nov 5, 09 at 1:24
Wow That sounds great. I didn't know much about peony seedlings but semi-double peach sounds yummy! White with blush sounds good too. I was thinking of getting a white one because somewhere I read that they can stand more sun. I can't wait to see them bloom! And grow big for me! This is just my first try with peonies and I hope I'll make them happy. Then I can get more peonies...So many to choose from! :D |
- Posted by intersectionalpeony (My Page) on Sun, Nov 15, 09 at 1:50
Idlewild attaches a plastic ribbon to its tree peonies. This ribbon has the name. If the ribbon was tied around both plants, then he sent you two of the same variety(on purpose). This is not unusual for the better growers. If they were not tied together, it is likely a gift. However, again he labels his gifts. The ribbon may have become detached. |

Forum Art Gallery hosts an exhibition of affordable art works
'Looking Inwards, Looking Beyond', the on-going exhibition at Forum Art Gallery, is one in a series of affordable art shows planned there.
It features the works of two young artists — paintings by Santhosh Kotagiri from Hyderabad, and sculptures by Vasantharaja J. — that complement one another in theme and style.
Santhosh's mixed media works are delicate and dreamy, watercolours in muted tones of pink, yellow and green, with gold and silver foil softly shimmering in their midst.
These dreamscapes are filled with stylised imagery of Nature — trees, leaves, birds and animals — and the human faces depicted on the gently textured canvases seem to be looking inward, as the artist is himself. The paintings come in different sizes, their prices ranging from Rs. 22,000 to Rs. 40,000.
Vasantharaja's bronze sculptures too incorporate foliage and human figures, but here, the focus seems to lie on what lies ahead and beyond.
Each of these compact works — all set in distressed, antique-looking squares or rectangles — feature minimalist figures either trapped in bondage or in difficult relationships, looking ahead into the future. Priced between Rs. 35,000 and Rs. 1 lakh, these neat but evocative pieces seem to speak of the human condition.
The exhibition is on until April 9.

1 This is another message that came to me from the LORD: | 1 The word of the LORD came to me: |
2 "Son of man, prophesy and give this message from the Sovereign LORD: Weep, | 2 "Son of man, prophesy and say: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: " 'Wail and say, "Alas for that day!" |
3 for the terrible day is almost here -- the day of the LORD! It is a day of clouds and gloom, a day of despair for the nations! | 3 For the day is near, the day of the LORD is near-- a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations. |
4 A sword will come against Egypt, and those who are slaughtered will cover the ground. Their wealth will be carried away and their foundations destroyed. The land of Ethiopia will be ravished. | 4 A sword will come against Egypt, and anguish will come upon Cush. When the slain fall in Egypt, her wealth will be carried away and her foundations torn down. |
5 Ethiopia, Libya, Lydia, and Arabia, with all their other allies, will be destroyed in that war." | 5 Cush and Put, Lydia and all Arabia, Libya and the people of the covenant land will fall by the sword along with Egypt. |
6 "For this is what the LORD says: All of Egypt's allies will fall, and the pride of their power will end. From Migdol to Aswan they will be slaughtered by the sword, says the Sovereign LORD. | 6 " 'This is what the LORD says: " 'The allies of Egypt will fall and her proud strength will fail. From Migdol to Aswan they will fall by the sword within her, declares the Sovereign LORD. |
7 Egypt will be desolate, surrounded by desolate nations, and its cities will be in ruins, surrounded by other ruined cities. | 7 " 'They will be desolate among desolate lands, and their cities will lie among ruined cities. |
8 And the people of Egypt will know that I am the LORD when I have set Egypt on fire and destroyed all their allies. | 8 Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I set fire to Egypt and all her helpers are crushed. |
9 At that time I will send swift messengers in ships to terrify the complacent Ethiopians. Great panic will come upon them on that day of Egypt's certain destruction." | 9 " 'On that day messengers will go out from me in ships to frighten Cush out of her complacency. Anguish will take hold of them on the day of Egypt's doom, for it is sure to come. |
10 "For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: Through King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, I will destroy the hordes of Egypt. | 10 " 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: " 'I will put an end to the hordes of Egypt by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. |
11 He and his armies -- ruthless among the nations -- have been sent to demolish the land. They will make war against Egypt until slaughtered Egyptians cover the ground. | 11 He and his army--the most ruthless of nations-- will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt and fill the land with the slain. |
12 I will dry up the Nile River and hand the land over to wicked men. I will destroy the land of Egypt and everything in it, using foreigners to do it. I, the LORD, have spoken!" | 12 I will dry up the streams of the Nile and sell the land to evil men; by the hand of foreigners I will lay waste the land and everything in it. I the LORD have spoken. |
13 "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will smash the idols of Egypt and the images at Memphis. There will be no rulers left in Egypt; anarchy will prevail throughout the land! | 13 " 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: " 'I will destroy the idols and put an end to the images in Memphis. No longer will there be a prince in Egypt, and I will spread fear throughout the land. |
14 I will destroy Pathros, Zoan, and Thebes, and they will lie in ruins, burned up by my anger. | 14 I will lay waste Upper Egypt, set fire to Zoan and inflict punishment on Thebes. |
15 I will pour out my fury on Pelusium, the strongest fortress of Egypt, and I will stamp out the people of Thebes. | 15 I will pour out my wrath on Pelusium, the stronghold of Egypt, and cut off the hordes of Thebes. |
16 Yes, I will set fire to all Egypt! Pelusium will be racked with pain; Thebes will be torn apart; Memphis will live in constant terror. | 16 I will set fire to Egypt; Pelusium will writhe in agony. Thebes will be taken by storm; Memphis will be in constant distress. |
17 The young men of Heliopolis and Bubastis will die in battle, and the women will be taken away as slaves. | 17 The young men of Heliopolis and Bubastis will fall by the sword, and the cities themselves will go into captivity. |
18 When I come to break the proud strength of Egypt, it will be a dark day for Tahpanhes, too. A dark cloud will cover Tahpanhes, and its daughters will be led away as captives. | 18 Dark will be the day at Tahpanhes when I break the yoke of Egypt; there her proud strength will come to an end. She will be covered with clouds, and her villages will go into captivity. |
19 And so I will greatly punish Egypt, and they will know that I am the LORD." | 19 So I will inflict punishment on Egypt, and they will know that I am the LORD.' " |

London-born singer Michael Kiwanuka's soul-singing pipes are so overstuffed with feeling that you wouldn't believe he's only 23.
Who: Singer Michael Kiwanuka, 23, was raised in North London but his roots are in Uganda. He's a huge football (er, soccer) fan who roots for Tottenham Hotspurs who grew up listening to Nirvana and Blur.
Share Tweet
Why: Though Kiwanuka figured he'd be just a session guitarist who wrote songs for other artists, his moving songs on Myspace page and gigs at a few local London clubs caught the ear of Paul Butler, frontman of UK pysch rock band, The Bees (or A Band of Bees, as they're known stateside).

Just like it says. Have a Gen 4 31 with about 100 rounds through it. Anymore, I prefer 45. Gun comes with five 15 round factory magazines, Trijicon HD sights (orange front), a new (gun inserted, not carried) Milt Sparks Summer Special II (tan, but comes with a set of black straps), and ammo.
Ammo is 450 rounds of Speer Gold Dot, a partial box of Federal HST, and 700 rounds of Speer Lawman.
I forgot to get a pic of the holster, but if interested let me know and I will get you some.
This whole setup ran a bit over 1400, but will let it all go for 1150 shipped (ammo weighs a lot). My father wants an M&P 9 to replace the model 60 I gave him, and I want more ammo.
Thanks for looking. Not interested in any trades. Postal money order, if you please, and as always no sales to those who aren't supposed to have this stuff.

Did my VIP 722 repair itself?
Posted 29 August 2011 - 04:53 PM
Anyway, I figured I had a disk going out since it acted horrible every day for about 10 days (it was almost entirely unusable). I just lived with it because I knew I was leaving on vacation for a week. I moved all my shows to external USB drive and powered it off during that week. When I came back I signed up for the extra warranty and intended to call in for a replacement receiver. Well, I turned it on after vacation and I have had zero problems since (about a week). Just trying to decide if I should have this one replaced still. Thoughts?

If you've experienced problems over several days, it should be replaced (especially if you did had the 311 error message). To prevent you from losing all your recordings, you can connect an EHD to the receiver and transfer them to the EHD. Once you get your new receiver you can view the recordings from the EHD or transfer them back to the receiver. Please PM me if you would like me to order a replacement receiver for you. Thanks.
Posted 30 August 2011 - 02:37 PM
I have received the 311 error probably 10 times over a few days (in addition to the other problems noted in the original post). I think I agree with you that it should be replaced (even though it has worked fine now for a few days). I don't trust it now and would hate to use it for a few weeks/months or whatever and then lose a bunch of stuff.
I'll PM you with account number so the receiver can be replaced.
Thank you.

A reproduction of the classic text, unavailable now for more than a decade, with a new introduction by the author.
The Hite Report, first published in 1976, was a sexual revolution in six hundred pages. To answer sensitive questions dealing with the most intimate details of women's sexuality, Hite's innovation was simple: she asked women, a lot of them, everything--and published the results.
One hundred thousand women, ages fourteen to seventy-eight, were asked what they do and don't like about sex; how orgasm really feels, with and without intercourse; how it feels not to have an orgasm during sex; the importance of clitoral stimulation and masturbation; and to name the greatest pleasures and frustrations of their sexual lives, among many other questions.
The Hite Report declares that orgasm is easy and strong for women, given the right stimulation; that most women have orgasm most easily during masturbation or clitoral stimulation by hand; that sex as we define it is a cultural institution, not a biological one; and that attitudes must change to include the stimulation women desire.
"[F]ascinating, eye-opening, rewarding…a must for everyone, male and female." — New York Times Book Review
"A frankness and directness not usually seen in print…Many female readers can closely identify with these intimate revelations." — Time

Gretton is a small village located at the foot of the western scarp of the Cotswolds, about 9 miles north of Cheltenham in the English county of Gloucestershire. The place-name 'Gretton' is first attested in 1175, and means 'village or town on gravelly soil'. The village has a small primary school for children aged 4 to 11 years old, with four classes catering for about eighty children. The Anglican Church in the village is Christ Church. Its bell tower houses a single bell, weighing four hundredweight (about 200 kg). The War Memorial stands opposite Village Hall. The village shares the same with the village of Gretton in the county of Northants in the East Midlands. Similarly there is another Gretton in Shropshire. [edit] Research Tips

Total 1st quarter net profit up 14 percent
French oil company Total SA said Friday its quarterly profit jumped 14 percent thanks to higher crude prices and a return to production growth during the period.
Total's net profit grew to euro2.61 billion ($3.46 billion) in the first quarter, up from euro2.29 billion a year earlier.
France's largest company by market capitalization said its combined production of oil and gas rose 4.5 percent in the first quarter to 2.43 million barrels a day. The company credited the lift to production ramp-ups on new fields as well as lower OPEC cuts and fewer disruptions in Nigeria related to security issues.
"With the benefit of growing production, we will remain committed to improving profitability and pursuing ongoing development," Total Chief Executive Christophe de Margerie said in a statement.
On an adjusted basis, a closely watched measure of profitability that excludes inventory gains and losses and tax charges and credits, Total's net profit grew 9 percent in the quarter.
Total said rising oil prices during the first three months of the year also helped lift its earnings. During the first quarter, the Brent oil price averaged $76.4 a barrel, 72 percent higher than a year earlier.
Total said it expects its output to continue to grow this year, fueled by new projects that came on stream in 2009 as well as a new liquefied natural gas plant in Yemen. Total is also developing oil and gas projects in Angola, Nigeria, Kazakhstan and Canada, which it said would "strengthen production growth in the medium term."
Higher production and rising oil prices helped Total offset a steep decline in its downstream operations during the quarter. This business, which includes refining, has been hammered across the industry as lower demand from drivers and businesses make it hard for refineries to pass on the higher oil prices.
Total's downstream operations' operating profit fell 74 percent in the first quarter to euro155 million, the company said.
The company is continuing to invest mainly in its upstream business this year, with 80 percent of its $18 billion investment budget set aside for exploration and production activities. It also intends to sell off non-core assets, through the gradual disposal of its remaining shares in French pharmaceutical company Sanofi-Aventis SA as well as a specialty chemicals subsidiary, Mapa Spontex.

Injured Klitschko postpones Pulev fight
Comment on this storyBerlin - World heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitsckho has postponed next month's IBF title bout with Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev after sustaining an injury in training.
"I am very disappointed the fight will not go ahead," the 38-year-old Ukrainian said in a statement on Monday. "I am in top form and had a great training camp."
Klitschko, who also holds the WBO, WBA and IBO belts and has won 62 of his 65 bouts, tore bicep muscles during training in Austria.
The fight was due to be held on Sept. 6 in the champion's Hamburg base. It will now be staged at the same venue later this year.
Pulev, 33, who has recorded 11 knockouts from 20 wins, became the IBF international champion in 2011 and European champion in 2012. – Reuters

L-Glutamine, a free-form amino acid, can be converted to glutamic acid. Glutamic acid is a usable energy source for the brain and a precursor to the important inhibitory neurotrans-mitter, GABA (gamma amino butyric acid), L-glutamine also plays an important role in ammonia disposal.
L-Glutamine Benefits:
Glutamine is the most abundant single amino acid in the blood and in the muscle tissue comprising up to 60% of the amino acid pool in skeletal muscle. Glutamines unique structure, containing two nitrogen side chains, consists of 19% nitrogen - making it the primary transporter of nitrogen into the muscle cell. In fact, glutamine alone is responsible for 35% of the nitrogen that gets into the muscle cell.
Some tissue types, however, depend on glutamine much more than others. Specifically, glutamine is utilized as a source of energy and for nucleotide synthesis by all rapidly dividing cells, such as the cells of the intestinal lining and certain immune cells (thymocytes, lymphocytes and macrophages). Without sufficient glutamine, the intestines atrophy and the immune function breaks down.
Glutamine serves as a nitrogen donor and a carbon donor, and is thus an important amino acid; it also helps replenish muscle glycogen after exercise. Without sufficient glutamine, muscles begin to atrophy. Glutamine is many essential for intestinal, immune and muscle functions.
The synthesis of glutamine protects the body, and the brain in particular, from ammonia toxicity. Excess ammonia is a crucial factor in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, since ammonia interferes with the oxidative metabolism of neurons and reduces the production of ATP, the "energy molecule." In addition, ammonia gives rise to very harmful nitrogen-based free radicals.
In the brain, glutamine is a substrate for the production of both excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters (glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid, popularly known as GABA). Glutamine is also an important source of energy for the nervous system. If the brain is not receiving enough glucose, it compensates by increasing glutamine metabolism for energy. Glutamine users often report more energy, less fatigue and better mood.

Palm plastic surgery asks the tough question, "if you could change your future, would you?"
In Japan, plastic surgeon Dr. Takaaki Matsuoka is offering a surgery that changes the lines on patient's hands, in hopes the new lines will change their futures in a positive way. The surgery is done with an electric scalpel and takes only 10 to 15 minutes. The scars, however, take a month to heal. The most popular reasons for people getting their palms enhanced are to add marriage and wealth lines if they don't have any.
Although Dr. Matsuoka charges $1,000 for this procedure, he isn't even 100 % sure it works. Instead, he believes in the placebo effect; if people really believe this surgery works, their luck will change.

Charges are lodged in threat to prosecutor
BARRE A 36-year-old Vermont prison inmate is facing charges he sent a threatening letter to the prosecutor who sent him to jail.
Barre police say Timothy Roberts admitted sending the anonymous letter to Washington County Deputy States Attorney Megan Campbell.
Police received the report of the anonymous threatening letter on Dec. 27, 2012.
Police say that on Friday, Roberts was interviewed at the Northeast State Correctional Facility in St. Johnsbury where he admitted sending the letter after he was sentenced on a domestic assault charge that was prosecuted by Campbell.

Love the shiny red packaging :)
I picked this up along with the matching shampoo and treatment cream during my stay in Japan. These products can be found in local drugstores for about $3-$4.
As with the shampoo, it has a nice light floral scent to it, which I love. This conditioner is amazing!!! I have shoulder length, thick hair and I use about a quarter size amount for my ends. Makes my hair feel and smell great.
Definitely would repurchase and stock up on my next trip :)

This had too much fragrance and along with the shampoo it gave me intense shine and softness to my hair. HOWEVER- I think this made my hair stiff, because it didn't have any natural bouncy move to it.
I paid $20 in a pack for the jumbo sizes of conditioner and shampoo.
I will not repurchase the shinning line.
**This is the shampoo with very similar results**
I could love this shampoo, but I can't...
I have dry thick hair and after two uses the shampoo and conditioner made my hair really shiny and soft! HOWEVER- with two uses my scalp was very irritated and had some little mosquito like bumps! :/ also, my scalp was slightly pink from irritation.
The fragrance is very strong like perfume/flowers-in the past Victoria secret hair products with tons of perfumes have irritated my scalp-so I suspect it was the fragrance in the Tsubaki shinning products that gave me irritation.
Also, because its very heavy in oils my hair was OILY by the next morning... and because of my dry scalp and thick hair it lasts clean up to three sometimes four days.
I have hair ends that are really dry so I would hate to throw this away-I think I'll finish the bottle only my dry dry ends and wont repurchase. :/

This is the best conditioner I've ever used. Not only does it make my hair soft and stronger (I've noticed less breakage!), but it keeps it light/fluffy and doesn't make it feel heavy or greasy like some other conditioners. I actually went around to friends and told them to touch my hair, and they were pretty impressed! It smells absolutely divine, too - it's a very delicate but lovely scent. The only downside is that it's far from being inexpensive, and I have to order it online when I run out. I absolutely love this conditioner, though, and will keep ordering it!

I've used the Shiseido Tsubaki Shining (red line) Shampoo and conditioner for the last 2 years and I absolutely love them. I have bleached/ damaged/ frizzy hair and this really helps my hair calm down and look healthy when it isn't. The set usually sells for $30 which includes the mask. The pump bottles are huge so I don't have to order every month. The conditioner is SO awesome. It's very silky and I let it sit in my hair for ten minutes while I shave and then rinse out. I also have a sensitive scalp, this doesn't bother it.

Age: 19-24 Skin: Normal, Medium Brown, Warm Hair: Brown, Wavy, Medium Eyes: Brown
By far the most luxurious, decadent conditioner I have ever tried. There is something about the camelia oil in this baby that just leaves my hair in prime condition- no tangles or frizz, just extremely smooth and glossy. Great for those heat tool fiends like myself. The red bottles look beautiful and the pump is a great design for the shower. I would recommend the Tsubaki products for thick, dry hair; the formulas would probably be way too rich for those with fine hair. They are on the pricey side, but truthfully, I haven't found any products (namely Western ones) that compare so I don't mind shelling out a little for these.

Okay, so the lippies are actually for the Shiseido Tsubaki red conditioner because I'm not a big fan of the white conditioner and I will tell you why after.
A lot of people say that the red conditioner is terrible because it's like you're putting pomade on your hair? Some say that their hair doesn't "move" the same way as it used to?
To me, I LOVE this conditioner and I wish I could have an endless supply of it because it's very thick in consistency and very moisturizing along with giving lots of shine and frizz control!
For those who colour their hair and heat style their hair a lot like me, this conditioner is like a miracle product because it gives your hair the moisture it is deprived of from all that damage.
I definitely need to find the refill packs of this conditioner because I know Japan sells them in every supermarket while I was there, but here no grocery store sells them except for the Chinese supermarkets in Toronto but they are mad expensive and they don't sell the refill packages either which is a big downer because it's good for saving plastic! Eco-friendly and what not.
Also, I had also used the white bottle conditioner and I HATE it. It's not as thick, not as moisturizing and not very good for frizz control either. I think that it is more used for the summer time since the air isn't as dry in the summer time, but I personally wouldn't be buying it anymore because it's not as thick and it's not moisturizing. The red one is a million times better. it seems to be more for people who have damaged hair where as the white one is more for people who have very healthy hair or finer hair since it does not seem to weigh down your hair as much.

I like this conditioner. Makes my hair extra soft after my regular shampoo. The large bottle lasts me for ages. The smell is nice and sweet smelling too.
I also make extra hair detangler out of it by using water, spray bottle and few tsps of this conditioner. Awesome for super stubborn tangles!

This is a great moisturizing conditioner. I have dry tips and very thin hair that tangles easily, and this does detangle and provide moisture. It has a thicker texture which I like and the scent is nice. I definitely recommend for a good everyday conditioner.

I'm on my second or third bottle of this. My hair is a little frizzy and it does make it shinier and more manageable. It smells really nice too! But the shampoo kind of sucks IMO.

I received this from a lovely swapper, and was thrilled to get it as I'd been using and loving the Tsubaki shampoo for some time (recieved from another great swapper). This has the same wonderful, fresh, Asian-pear-like scent. But it's quite thick and a little waxy, which makes it difficult to rinse out. I do like the finished effect, though--shiny, well-conditioned, fresh-smelling hair. This is not as heavy as Fekkai's Ageless conditioner, but it gets the job done. For me, this was a great eample of swapping for something I didn't know I wanted, but I'll continue to use this shampoo and conditioner for a long time. I would repurchase.

The sixth title from this #1 bestselling, chart-busting team is bursting with Julia Donaldson's rhythmic, lyrical verse and Lydia Monks's bright, beautiful illustrations. There's glitter on every page too!
