CHICAGO (CNN) - The Teamsters and the Service Employees International Union voted Monday to withdraw from the AFL-CIO.
The announcement came on the first day of the 50-year-old labor federation's annual meeting.
James Hoffa of the Teamsters and Andy Stern of SEIU told reporters they each notified AFL-CIO President John Sweeney on Monday morning in a letter after their executive boards unanimously agreed to disaffiliate.
"What John Sweeney has been doing has not been working and it's time to try something new," said Hoffa, general president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.
He predicted to CNN that seven other international unions would soon bolt from the AFL-CIO and join the Teamsters.
"It is not done lightly. We have extended a number of propositions and ideas to the AFL-CIO to make sure that we could change the tide of the AFL-CIO.
"We have been disappointed over the last 10 years that we have seen a decline in membership," he said, referring to Sweeney's decade-long tenure as president.
Though the union suggested "a number of changes," including a $5 million rebate to help the Teamsters reorganize in their core industries, "they said no," Hoffa said. "Their idea is to keep throwing money at politicians."
He added, "What was being done at the AFL-CIO is not working; we are going to do something new. That is our message."
Among the new things the Teamsters will try, Hoffa said, will be becoming "more bipartisan. ... We're not going to be afraid to back a Republican."
Two other unions were also considering splitting from the AFL-CIO.
A spokeswoman for UNITE/HERE, which represents textile and hotel workers, said she would not announce Monday whether it is quitting the umbrella organization.
A spokeswoman for the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union said she did not know what was being planned.
"All the signs are that they are going to split off," former Labor Secretary Robert Reich told CNN.
The dissident unions have a combined membership of nearly 5 million workers -- about a third of the AFL-CIO's total membership. Their leaders have accused Sweeney of putting more money into political campaigns at the expense of union organizing.
"We are not trying to divide the labor movement, we are trying to rebuild it," SEIU President Andy Stern said Sunday.
When the AFL-CIO formed in 1955, about 35 percent of American workers belonged to unions. Today, unions represent about 8 percent of the private-sector workforce.
The AFL-CIO has weighed in heavily behind Democrats in national politics, with member unions contributing tens of millions to party candidates in 2004, according to federal campaign finance records.
"In unity, there is strength," Reich said. "And if the AFL-CIO splits, the fear is at least that the entire labor union movement will be less powerful than it is today -- and that's not very powerful."
Reich, who led the Labor Department during the Clinton administration, said American workers are likely to be worse off "if the labor unions just find themselves fractured and angry." But if the dissidents can get more workers to sign union cards, he said, "it's possible that the labor union movement, when the dust clears, is actually stronger."
In some ways the split of major unions from the AFL-CIO may have more symbolic impact than operational impact for unions and their members, said Gary Chaison, professor of industrial relations at Clark University in Massachusetts.
"Quite bluntly, to an auto worker at General Motors or an airline worker facing demands for concessions, this doesn't mean a hell of a lot," said Chaison. "Their concern is 'can my union deliver at the bargaining table?' I can't think of any union that would really be hurt at the bargaining table."
But Chaison said the split is important as a sign of the troubles that have been plaguing organized labor for decades: waning numerical strength and lost leverage in dealings with employers.
"I do think employers will be emboldened by this move. It's a signal that labor is on the ropes," he said. "The decline of organized labor over the last 20 years now is really shown by the events of the last day or two."
Chaison said that the loss of dues paid by members of the four major unions which may leave the AFL-CIO could cut its operating budget by up to a third.
"I think it (the AFL-CIO) will survive as long as it has key unions still in it like Steelworkers and Auto Workers and especially the Communication Workers," said Chaison. "But it's going to be a loss for the AFL-CIO in terms of income. It's not going to be effective in terms of political activity for quite a while."
Sweeney, who was president of the SEIU before becoming the federation's leader in 1995, said the federation's remaining 50-plus unions "will make major decisions about changing workers' lives this week, no matter what happens."
"It's a shame for working people that, before the first vote has been cast, four unions have decided that if they can't win, they won't show up for the game," Sweeney said in a written statement.
He said the boycotting unions "should come argue for their ideas and listen to others. That's how democracies work." He called it "fundamentally wrong to use working people's issues as a fig leaf for a power struggle."
But SEIU Secretary-Treasurer Anna Burger said the AFL-CIO "has listened ... but, in the end, has not heard us." She called the differences "unresolvable."
The coalition includes three other unions -- the Laborers International Union, the Carpenters Union and the United Farm Workers. The UFW and the Laborers are not planning to boycott the convention, and the Carpenters Union is not an AFL-CIO member.

Copay Exemption Issue Corrected
November 14, 2012
AJ condition codes are used for claims when a service provided is copay exempt. Previously, when a claim was submitted with an AJ condition code, MIHMS flagged the member associated to that claim as being copay exempt. As a result, all subsequent claims submitted for that member was processed as copay exempt even if an AJ condition code was not present on the subsequent claim(s). This issue has now been corrected. Moving forward, providers will see copays taken from the RA where they were not before. This change was implemented on 11/01/2012.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Researchers have created a new material that overcomes two of the major obstacles to solar power: it absorbs all the energy contained in sunlight, and generates electrons in a way that makes them easier to capture.
Ohio State University chemists and their colleagues combined electrically conductive plastic with metals including molybdenum and titanium to create the hybrid material.
"There are other such hybrids out there, but the advantage of our material is that we can cover the entire range of the solar spectrum," explained Malcolm Chisholm, Distinguished University Professor and Chair of the Department of Chemistry at Ohio State.
The study appears in the current issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Sunlight contains the entire spectrum of colors that can be seen with the naked eye -- all the colors of the rainbow. What our eyes interpret as color are really different energy levels, or frequencies of light. Today's solar cell materials can only capture a small range of frequencies, so they can only capture a small fraction of the energy contained in sunlight.
This new material is the first that can absorb all the energy contained in visible light at once.
The material generates electricity just like other solar cell materials do: light energizes the atoms of the material, and some of the electrons in those atoms are knocked loose.
Ideally, the electrons flow out of the device as electrical current, but this is where most solar cells run into trouble. The electrons only stay loose for a tiny fraction of a second before they sink back into the atoms from which they came. The electrons must be captured during the short time they are free, and this task, called charge separation, is difficult.
In the new hybrid material, electrons remain free much longer than ever before.
To design the hybrid material, the chemists explored d

I'm a single parent and a Corrections professional in the State of West Virginia. I am soon to be a first-time grandmother (a very young one) and am very excited about that. I love to cook and enjoy trying new recipes. I also love music and find that other than "air", it is probably the one thing I can't live without.
Hmmm...favorite foods...how could anyone limit themself to one favorite food? I love seafood and seafood dishes. Italian cuisine is another favorite. But then, I love cajun...and....
The list goes on and on. I love baking (breads, cakes, pies) and making new fun dishes for parties. I like to keep everyone guessing about what I'll bring next.
When I want a simple easy meal - bring out the grill...a nice delmonico with grilled portabello, a beautiful salad with a balsamic vinagrette dressing and some nice hearty bread and I'm set.

In these tough economic times, our family is trying to save money by staying closer to home and eating out less. I love to go out to eat and was feeling a little sad to give up those special nights. I analyzed why we like to dine out and it became clear that we enjoyed the delicious food and the beautiful settings. So I've embraced the challenge to continue eating delicious food and creating a beautiful setting for our family's dining pleasure. To that end, I've been led to RecipeZaar - my new favorite website home.
Our family really likes spending time together and meals are a fabulous opportunity to share the joys and frustrations of the day. Providing an enjoyable setting to share the daily meal makes me happy. The family has responded well to the changes and really seem to appreciate the beautiful table settings and newly-improved menus. It's nice that they noticed.

7 New Mom Tips for Kim Kardashian
By GalTime .com
3. Make Mistakes
"Don't expect to be perfect," says Amy F., a mother of one. "You WILL make mistakes as a new parent. Everyone does. This does not make you a bad parent, just human."
Remember, mistakes are the tool of all invention and can sometimes clear the way for great possibilities -- or just good opportunities to learn something new.
4. Surround Yourself with Other Moms
"Develop a support network of good friends and friends with kids," advises parenting expert Barbara Greenberg, PhD. "In life, especially when you have kids, there is nothing like speaking to and relying on other moms."
Molly J., who is the mother of a one-year-old daughter, echoes a similar sentiment. "As great as your current friends and family may be, find a group of new moms with kids around the same age. Go to a breastfeeding support group, Mommy and Me, music class, whatever. Just get yourself out of the house and around other moms who are in it too."

5. Embrace the 5-Second Rule
While it may be hard to do, part of being a good mom includes taking time for yourself. When baby won't stop crying, walk away for a moment, breathe deep, and regroup – even if it's just for five seconds.
"One thing I have always done is to have a time-out for mommy, not the child," shares Tonja S., a mother of one. "I take 5-15 minutes to regroup and then start fresh."
6. Teach Your Kids True Self-Worth
Self-esteem is the foundation of a child's well-being, and the key to success as an adult. While teaching your child true self-worth is probably one of the hardest things you'll ever do, it's also one of the most important – and should be based on more than just how cute your kid is.
"Teach your daughter that her self-worth is more than her appearance," advises author Chaunie Brusie, RN, BSN. "Also, tell her to avoid ever making a sex tape! Although I guess that ended up working pretty well for Kim K., didn't it?!" she jokes. Keep reading...

text: Hi all, ive been on IP since October. Been very strict with one cheat weekend the entire time. Ive been threw phase 2 & 3 without gain and actually lost another 1.5lbs. I started phase 4 and met with my coach yesterday and off to vacation today. Have definitely not been following IP and do plan on making healthy choices but will also definitely enjoy myself this 10 day trip to orlando & disney. Just curious what others have done in this situation. I plan on going back to the IP ways once back from the trip but do I go right back to phase 1 or is it appropriate to go to phase 2/3? Im accepting of the fact I will probably gain weight during this trip & hopeful most will come off within a week of back on track (water weight, bloat ect) but just interested in others opinions or what others have done post vacation..or even how much prop have gained during their vacations off IP. Thanks so much! :)

It all started with a diaper rash. Diaper rash, and two very clueless first time parents.
As soon as Barrett had passed all the meconium his bowel movements were very acidic and left burns on my preemie baby's bottom. We would rinse the football-sized child in the sink, gently pat him dry, and then lay him on his tummy by the fireplace to air out. Nothing helped. Brannon and I weren't overly concerned because we had seen lots of diaper rash in our lives. But it continued to get worse so we took him to a pediatrician–who recommended we test him for Giardia. How on earth would a newborn get Giardia? But "doctor knows best" so we went ahead with the test. No Giardia.
Next time we asked for a different doctor. He chuckled at the "paranoid" first time parents and gave us a lifetime supply of Butt Paste samples. (For the record, those didn't work.) In the meantime the poor little guy did not like to be touched or cuddled and had severe colic.
We went to a new doctor who at least helped us with the rash. He quickly diagnosed it as an acid burn. He recommended treating the rash with A&D for burns and switching Barrett to soy formula. The A&D worked great for healing the rash, but not for preventing it. A baby forum gave us the idea of mixing Mylanta in with it and that solved the prevention problem. But these efforts only masked the symptoms and the soy formula did not make a difference.
In the meantime Barrett' belly started to bloat. He would eat, and eat, and eat, and still be hungry, yet his weight percentile dropped from the 27th to the 9th. "He's just more active," said the doctor. Um, no. He was actually a late bloomer in the physical realm.
The doctor brushed off my concerns so I went to Dr. Google. Using information I found online I started requesting some tests and although he dragged his feet, the doctor ordered them. I still vividly remember the day I drove two hours to have Barrett tested for Cystic Fibrosis. He curled up in pain and whimpered "stomach hurts" the whole way. I cried along with my son and imagined what it would mean if this test was positive. Fortunately, that test came up negative but it meant we were back to the drawing board.
Eventually Barrett's bowel movements became extremely strong-smelling and it looked as though he had been eating sand. We went back to Dr. Google and entered "sandy bowel movement" which led us straight to the discussion board at Celiac.com. The information we found indicated that the "sand" was a sign of intestinal damage. Barrett had many of the classic symptoms of Celiac, and we also realized that my husband's sister had just been diagnosed with it.
We went back our doctor who doubtfully ordered a Celiac blood test. Negative. He sent us to the allergist. "Based on testing there should be no food restrictions in his diet." I'm sure the doctor and the allergist thought we were crazy by this point. But Dr. Google informed us that the blood tests are not very reliable, especially in children under age 5. We decided to forget the clinical testing and go straight to the gluten-free diet.
Within a week the rashes, the sand, and the whimpers started to go away. My son was finally starting to be happy! We considered doing a biopsy to get conclusive clinical evidence but in order to do that we would have had to feed them gluten for a few weeks. Seriously? Why would I do something to intentionally damage my child in order to prove that it damaged my child? The evidence was there. I opted not to do the biopsy.
However, Barrett started relapse and we could not figure out what the problem was. We found Enterolab, a company that does stool testing and research to find connections between gluten intolerance and other autoimmune diseases. It was expensive, but worth every penny. The stool test revealed that he was also sensitive to soy and milk. Once we removed those from his diet Barrett flourished!
But the story doesn't end there. A little sister came into the picture just after we figured out what was bothering Barrett. Naturally we avoided feeding her gluten and milk for the first year and never gave her a drop of formula. We watched her like a hawk when we introduced gluten and of course, she reacted to it. I started to wonder if there was a stronger connection than just my husband's sister having Celiac. I put myself on a gluten free diet.
It was amazing! I realized that the slight discomfort I have had my entire life after eating wasn't normal. Suddenly I had energy and I felt better than I ever had before.
Now we have a third child—a son—who also shows sensitivity to gluten, milk, and other foods. Sometimes it's a little frustrating to face the fact that all of my children will likely have to deal with digestive problems. But really it isn't that bad. In fact, we eat much healthier because of it. We eat fewer processed foods, we go out to eat less, we buy more whole foods and prepare from scratch. Once you get into a routine it really isn't any different from normal food preparation. And now there are so many amazing gluten-free bloggers and products out there that you can eat and do just about anything. In fact, I have written a children's book of my own to help kids like Barrett celebrate his unique situation.
So if you suspect you may be gluten intolerant don't be discouraged. There is a whole community out there waiting to help you along the journey!

Insider Trader: Your bad self
In the World of Warcraft, as in life, we are constantly being faced with morally significant choices. Some players try their best to listen to the Angel on their shoulder, while others will do whatever suits them at the time. Proper etiquette is always in debate.
Of course, as this is a virtual world, the moral implications of our actions are on a much smaller scale. Hitting someone for being annoying could cause many problems in my personal and professional lives, yet blasting someone similar off of a cliff in-game can be almost therapeutic.
When it comes to gathering and crafting, greed crops up. There are many ways to get what you want, often at the expense of others. This week, Insider Trader will discuss the underhanded side of the professional world.

China appears ready to reveal another of its developmental military aircraft, with new images having emerged showing what appears to be a high-altitude, long-endurance unmanned air vehicle.
Posted on the China Defense Mashup website, the aircraft was photographed at Chengdu airfield, where the J-20 stealth fighter also emerged late last year, shortly before making its surprise flight debut from the site in January.
China Defense Mashup speculates that the newly-spotted vehicle is the Xianglong: an intended counterpart to the USA's Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk.

For several minutes, in fact. Earlier today, IGN's Matt Casamassina posted an article that served to round up several wily Wii rumors, including the usual price ($229) and launch date (2 Nov. or 12 Nov.) suspects. More interesting, however, was the indication given by mysterious sources that IBM was in the process of shrinking and slowing down the Wii's Broadway chip for a "future Nintendo handheld -- presumably one that plays Gamecube discs."
Before the rumor managed to fully set in and plunge the masses into unyielding seizures of delight, the article was promptly pulled from the site and replaced by a decidedly unhelpful update. "At the request of our sources, who do not wish to go to jail this week, we have temporarily removed the Wii rumors piece that was posted earlier." Apparently, the oppressive and joyless Nintendo police were none too pleased with people blabbering about portable Gamecubes to IGN. When the article reappeared, all mention of it had been removed, spirited away to some great rumor recycle bin (send our love to the holographic projector).
Perhaps that's all there is to this story -- there is no portable Gamecube and the article's editing serves no purpose other than to make it more accurate. Of course, when an article is admittedly based entirely on whispered secrets and industry murmurings, why yank it just to edit out one rumor in particular? Or could it be another high-larious prank devised by Matt's IGN pals? Time will tell, though we'd rather it be an impatient and stocky time attending the Leipzig Games Convention.

Ekk Deewana Tha (Hindi)
Cast: Prateik, Amy Jackson, Manu Rishi
Director: Gautham Vasudev Menon
Director Gautham Menon takes us back to times when love at first sight was the norm and fathers and brothers saw women as the epitome of family honour. In times when industry seems to be in a rewind mode, one wouldn't have minded it, but the problem is Menon has set this remake of his own Tamil-hit in south Mumbai.
Plastic in texture and dated in appeal, Prateik plays Sachin, a Maharashtrian Brahmin whose focus on cinema as a career shifts the moment he sees his neighbour Jessie (Amy Jackson). A Malayali Christian, Jessie's father consider cinema a sin. He doesn't know Amitabh Bachchan and she hasn't heard of Mohanlal. A bit unbelievable considering the girl works for an IT firm and the father is shown using the laptop.
Anyway, boy proposes, girl refuses; boy persists and follows her to Kerala; girl relents only to take one step at a time, providing A.R. Rahman some tuneful opportunities and allowing Manu Rishi to slip in some witty lines to keep us in good humour.
Amy is easy on the eye and Prateik gets the chance to play hero. But is something simmering between the lead players? Not quite.
As expected, the girl's father and brother oppose the budding romance and plant an alternative. Jessie snaps to it only when the rings are to be exchanged in the church.
So is it over? No, it is just the intermission. There are plenty of reels to be exposed and patience to be tested. Father blames Sachin for Jessie's about-turn. Jesse suggests otherwise. Sachin joins Ramesh Sippy at a time when his son is making films. Even if you don't mind the lack of detailing, you can't avoid the potholes in the script. As we wait for Jessie to make up her mind, the film loses its coherence.
Prateik lights up some scenes but he is not the guy to last this 160-minute saga that needs an emotional charge every few minutes. He can only deliver in small packages.
Amy is good material to promote saris and Kerala's beaches, but she is too raw for a complex character like Jessie. Trisha, the leading lady of the original, was good.
Here, a changed skin tone and poor dubbing only make the fakery all the more apparent.

The pancreases of the individuals who had been on incretin therapy were larger than those of patients on other types of diabetes therapies, and this larger size was associated with increased cellular proliferation. Incretin-treated individuals showed an increase in pancreas dysplasia, an abnormal form of cell proliferation that is a risk factor for pancreatic cancer, as well as an expansion of alpha cells, endocrine cells that make the hormone glucagon.
This latter finding is likely a consequence of GLP-1based therapies' suppression of the release of glucagon by alpha cells, since decreasing the availability or action of the hormone glucagon has been shown in a variety of prior studies to induce a proliferation of pancreatic alpha cells. This alpha-cell expansion has been associated with the development of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Three of the eight incretin-treated individuals had microadenomas and one has a neuroendocrine tumor composed of alpha cells.
Of the eight donors who were on incretin therapy, seven had been taking sitagliptin, sold in pill form as Januvia and marketed by Merck, and one had been on exenatide, sold as Byetta by Bristol-Myers Squibb. These and similar drugs are currently under investigation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for their possible links to pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer.
"These findings lend additional weight to concerns regarding the effects of long term GLP-1related therapy, with respect to both unintended proliferative actions on the exocrine pancreas and now also a possible increased risk of neuroendocrine tumors," the researchers write. "In addition to the surveillance previously recommended for the potential association of GLP-1 based therapy and pancreatic cancer risk, the curr

Fitch Places FC IDRs of Argentine Financial Institutions on Rating Watch Negative Business Wire BUENOS AIRES, Argentina -- November 06, 2012 Fitch Ratings has placed the foreign currency Issuer Default Ratings (IDR) and the long-term foreign currency and national long-term ratings on debt securities issued internationally and payable exclusively in foreign currency (largely US Dollars) of several Argentine financial institutions on Rating Watch Negative. A complete list of ratings is provided at the end of this release. These actions follow Fitch's decision to place the 'B' foreign currency IDR of Argentina on Rating Watch Negative, as a result of increased uncertainty about the government's ability to service its international securities issued under New York Law on a timely basis using the U.S. financial system. (see 'Fitch Places Argentina on Rating Watch Negative' published on Oct.r 30, 2012 at www.fitchratings.com). On Oct. 26, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in New York upheld U.S. District Judge Griesa's ruling that Argentina breached the 'Equal Treatment Provision' of the original New York-based law bonds defaulted in 2001. The provision states that the payments rank at all times 'at least equally with all other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated external indebtedness.' The remedy of the ruling orders Argentina to make payments to holdouts at the same time as or prior to its payments to holders of the 2005 and 2010 restructured debt. Fitch notes that there is some uncertainty about the timeframe of the legal process and when or how it could affect the country's ability to pay NY law external debt. Currently, Fitch understands that the government of Argentina is not legally restrained from making payments on its performing debt under NY law without making payments to the plaintiffs. However, this could change depending on Judge Griesa's observations and the subsequent considerations by the Appeals Court on these issues. The next coupon payment for the securities is on Dec. 1, 2012. Although this ruling should not directly impact the ability of the Argentine financial institutions to make payments on their foreign currency obligations using the U.S. financial system, it may further impact the willingness of the Argentine government to provide financial institutions with foreign exchange to make payments to their cross currency debt obligations. Other issues under foreign legislation that allow for the possibility of payments in local currency in Argentina are not affected by this committee. Fitch expects to resolve the Rating Watch Negative status of the financial institutions listed below once the Rating Watch on the sovereign rating is resolved. Fitch placed the foreign currency IDR of the following issuers on Rating Watch Negtive: --Banco Macro S.A. foreign currency IDR of 'B'; --Tarjeta Naranja S.A. foreign currency IDR of 'B'; In conjunction with these rating actions, Fitch has also placed the following issue ratings on Rating Watch Negative: Banco Macro S.A. --USD150 million senior unsecured bonds due 2017 'B/RR4/AA+(arg)'. --USD150 million subordinated bonds due 2036 'CCC/RR6/A+(arg)'. Banco Supervielle S.A. --USD50 million Subordinated notes due 2017 'B-/A+(arg)'. Banco Hipotecario S.A. --USD449.9 million senior unsecured notes due 2013 'AA(arg)'. --EUR278.3 million senior unsecured notes due 2013 'AA(arg)'. --USD250 million senior unsecured notes due 2016 'AA(arg)'. The other ratings assigned to these issuers were not reviewed in this committee. Additional information is available at 'www.fitchratings.com'. The ratings above were solicited by, or on behalf of, the issuer, and therefore, Fitch has been compensated for the provision of the ratings.

Chinese show moved to late April in new venue
Posted onThe dates and venue of Boat China & Water Sports Expo 2014 recently changed.
The show had been scheduled for March 1-3 at the China Import & Export Fair Pazhou Complex, but it was switched to April 28-May 4 at the Asian International Yacht City in Guangzhou.
Organizers said China's fast-growing economy and the development of yachting infrastructure are spurring demand for private boats and yachting activities throughout the country.
In addition to the rising consumer market, China has become an increasingly active boatbuilder. Growing interest has increased the need to accommodate larger superyachts for display.
The new exhibition center will reach 50,000 square meters, including 160 water berths and 2,000 standard booths.
Asian International Yacht City, located in the floating lotus road of the Panyu District of Guangzhou near the Lotus Hill and Asian Games City, backs to the mountains and faces the ocean. It is about 1,500 acres and will result from an investment of 40 billion yuan, or about $65.8 billion.
The Asian International Yacht City is being led by Guangdong Yazhou International Yacht Co. Ltd., combined with the Guangdong Yacht Industry Association, to build the largest yacht demonstration base in the world.
Asian International Yacht City will consist of nine service areas, including International brands headquarters, a 4S trade and maintenance area, an RV and aircraft business area, a yacht club area, a yacht culture tourism area, a yacht design center, a yacht training center, a water sports training area, a high-end lifestyles experience area and a yacht city supporting service facilities.
Lotus Hill International Yacht Club is the core item of Asian International Yacht City, where 800 yacht international standard berths will be built and more than 20 yacht clubs will be gathered from all over the world.

Korean pitcher not coming to United States
According to reports out of Korea, the Kia Tigers have rejected the winning bid for pitcher Hyeon-jong Yang. There have been conflicting reports as to whether the Rangers or the Twins submitted the highest bid. Either way, the bid has been rejected. The Rangers have to press on and find other ways to acquire starting pitching.
Presumably they will wait until after Thanksgiving and the 49ers-Seahawks game on Thursday night.
Darvish cleared to throw
Yu Darvish underwent an MRI and a subsequent examination of his right elbow by Dr. Keith Meister on Tuesday in Arlington. Dr. Meister reported that the MRI looked fine, and he has cleared Darvish to begin throwing on his normal schedule. Darvish is currently undergoing his normal off-season training program and expects to start throwing in early December. It is expected that Darvish will spend at least the next several weeks working out in Texas.
Rangers haven't heard on Korean lefty
The Rangers have not been told they have won the bidding on Korean left-handed pitcher Hyeon-jong Yang. They and the Twins are considered the two most serious competitors. The Rangers won't know until Yang's team, the Kia Tigers, accept the bid and inform Major League Baseball. The team that wins the bid has 30 days to negotiate the contract.
Who is this guy…
this is from http://www.mlbtraderumors.com
Yang, who will be 27 in March, posted a 4.25 ERA with 8.6 K/9 and 4.0 BB/9 in 165 innings in Korea in 2014. Those numbers don't sound that impressive at first, but each team scores an average of 5.63 runs per game in the offense-heavy KBO, far higher than in the Majors, and Yang's season earned him the KBO's equivalent of the Cy Young award. Yang is viewed as a mid-rotation starter with No. 2 starter upside, the New York Daily News' Mark Feinsand reports. Yang has a smooth delivery and throws 92-95 MPH.

Barbering On The Boulevard, 1060 Lake Murray Boulevard: Summer 2014 3 comments
This little barbershop on Lake Murray Boulevard has closed up shop and has apparently gone from trying to lease all or part to being up for sale. A little sign in back notes that one of the barbers has moved on to a spot on Saint Andrews Drive.
Like Charlie's on Rosewood, this place had one of the now rare motorized spinning barber poles which I've always liked.

Anointed Design Hair Studio / Tru Cutz Barber Shop, 6908 Two Notch Road Suite C: 2011 (moved) 5 comments
This little storefront is right beside the Dentsville Best Buy and right across the Two Notch entry to the Columbia Mall perimeter road. In fact, this strip mall shares stoplight access to Two Notch with the perimeter, and it always seemed to me that when they built Best Buy they should have figured out some way to connect their parking lot with this one.
I think Tru Cutz was the last tenant here, as you can still see the word "Barber" superimposed on the window. On the other hand, I can't find a phonebook listing for them, and I can for Anointed who seem to have moved to Decker around 2011.
Piper's Hair Care & Nails, 2210 Decker Boulevard Suite 3: 2010 1 comment
This little Barber & hair and nail salon sits in a strip mall almost at the intersection Decker and Faraway.
I like those old style spinning barber poles, though you never actually seem them spin anymore.
Fancy Cutter Children & Adult Hair Design, 6801 Saint Andrews Road: 2008 no comments
Today we're back in Quail Valley Plaza for a hair styling storefront.
Just looking at the logo, it seems that more drama than styling is going on:
Olde Style Barber Shop & School, 7304-C Two Notch Road: late 2000s 1 comment
There is an interesting little strip mall on Two Notch Road in Dentsville just east of the intersection with Decker Boulevard.
Somewhat like the old Boardwalk Plaza on Bush River Road, this strip is made up of trailers and prefab utility buildings rather than permanent structures. In the case of Boardwalk it was because they always thought new I-26 construction would interfere with the space. In this case, I don't know the reason, but I've always assumed that building codes (and perhaps good construction methods in themselves) don't allow permanent buildings to be built so close to the elevated railbed which carries trains up to the trestle over Decker Boulevard.
At any rate, for whatever the reason, this trailer housed a barber shop for many years. I actually went there three or four times over the years when I would really need a cut, and missed the hours at my regular barbers'.
Although the sign doesn't mention it, the old phonebook listings make clear that you could learn your trade there as well as getting your hair cut.
Dessie Short Stop III + ABC Store + Short Stop Barber Shop & Hair Styling, 3827 Farrow Road: 2000s 1 comment
This little three suite building on Farrow Road just past SC-277 (headed away from town) was the home of the Short Stop Barber Shop & Hair Styling barber shop and salon on the right side of the building, and Dessie Short Stop III convenience store on the left side of the building and an ABC store in between.
You can still see where the barber pole was mounted on the wall, but the shop closed sometime before the February 2007 phonebook. There is a large gap in the books I have at home, but I can say that it *was* listed in the February 1997 book.
The convience store is not listed in any of my phonebooks, so apparently it went into operation after the Feb 1997 book and closed before the Feb 2007 one. (There is still another Dessie Short Stop at another location). This does not quite jibe with the Richland County business license list, which lists the place as holding business licenses as a convenience store in both 2008 and 2009 although it is consistent with the Columbia Star report of an application for a beer and wine permit in September 2006.
I don't have any information on the Red Dot ABC store in suite 2.
Bel-Air Barber Shop, 1617 Broad River Road: Early 2012 10 comments
Commenter ED points out that the Bel-Air Barber Shop, a Boozer Shopping Center institution, has closed after 40 years. The old style places certainly seem to be closing faster than new ones are springing up. And of course it's depressing to note as well that if this place was 40 years old -- it is a lot *newer* than the places I started getting my hair cut..
(Hat tip to commenter ED)
Simply Hair Barber Shop, 3902 Two Notch Road Suite B: Early 2012 no comments
When I noticed this empty slot in the Food Lion plaza on Two Notch the other night, my first thought was that GQ Barber Shop had closed, but on checking the closing I did for Arnold's Professional Cleaners last year, I see that at that time, the shop was called Simply Hair Barber Shop, and in fact Simply Hair is listed in this year's (February 2012) phonebook, so it would appear that GQ is going in rather than out. (Given that there is no "opening soon" sign, I could be wrong and GQ might have gone in and out very quickly).
Note that GQ mostly re-uses the Simply Hair sign.
Gentlemen's Barber Shop, 441 Percival Road: January 2012 3 comments
Interestingly, I cannot find this barber shop, on Percival Road between Decker Boulevard and Forest Drive, in any of my phonebooks. It does show up in google, but it's neither in the BellSouth white pages nor the BellSouth yellow pages. Commenter Sidney says it was there for 8 years until it ran into financial difficulties in January.
At any rate, judging by the current tenant, you can still get a severe haircut there!
(Hat tip to commenter Sidney)
Charlie's Barber Shop, 1900 Rosewood Drive: 2010 7 comments
I noticed this old-school barber shop on Rosewood a few months ago as I was headed down towards Assembly. It looks like it has that kind of electrical, revolving, barber pole that you used to see quite a bit, but hardly at all nowdays.
I'm just guessing at a 2010 closing date, but I think it would have caught my eye before if it had been much longer than that.
UPDATE 11 July 2014 -- It's now Pelican's SnoBalls snow cone shop:

This is the perfect icebreaker and getting to know you activity!
First, write 3 very simple sentence prompts on the board. For example something like this….
1. I like ………………………..
2. I don't like ……………………
3. I can ………………… well.
(change these depending on the level of your students).
Next, hand out a piece of paper and ask students to write down the sentences and finish them off by writing about themselves.. The teacher also makes one.
Then, when finished, crumple up your paper and put it on your desk. Everyone does this. When the teacher says go – it is SNOWBALL FIGHT! Let the students fight for 30 or so seconds.
Finally, pick up a snowball and unravel it. Students read each outloud and the class tries to guess who it is.
Lots of fun and just "throwing something" breaks down barriers and really helps create atmosphere for future classes.

A Seed of Thought: Artist Sketchbooks. Snap Happy: Example - Sketchbooks. Here are some interesting sketchbooks that I have found during my research.
I singled out these sketchbooks because their work has been portrayed in interesting ways that make you want to read what they provided. I especially like all the illustrative work in these sketchbooks as I think a visual aid is much better than a stack of writing. I think that sketchbooks are more interesting when they have drawings and things stuck into them which provide more depth, such as leaflets or postcards. The photographs that I have posted below are a few of my favourites. Sketchbooks. Sketchbooks: Most artists keep sketchbooks in which they experiment with ideas and collect drawings of their environment.
The most famous artist sketchbooks are those of Leonardo da Vinci. His sketchbooks are filled with drawings, diagrams and written notes of things he saw and ideas he came up with. The Sketchbook Project - WE DESIGN STUDIOS. We recently heard about a really amazing art event that is currently traveling throughout the United States. The Sketchbook Project is displaying nearly 10,000 completed sketchbooks in nine major cities in the United States and is produced by Arthouse, a Brooklyn-based co-op with a goal to bring art to the masses. Arthouse began its project by sending out 28,839 blank sketchbooks to artists in 94 different countries.

I finally went after a bed that's been an eyesore for 12 years. This sloped bed faces south, ground gets rock hard.
I'll probably leave it like this for a while to see if the weeds are under control before I dig into it again. I'd love to hear/see other ideas for an area like this. |

Wow! That's quite an improvement! I love the looks of the bottom bed. The only thing is, the grasses seem to block some of the view of the beautiful flowers behind them. But I suppose if you look at the scene from a different angle, you can see the upper bed just fine. Good landscaping job! Julie |
- Posted by daddylonglegs z5 WI (My Page) on Mon, Jul 16, 07 at 18:01
Good point about the grass Julie, in this case though this bed is a transition from the flower garden to the vegetable garden. So you are looking back at the flower garden, you need to go thru there to get to this bed. So the grass is more of a hint that something more is coming up when you are in the flower garden, and when you get to this bed you are looking back. On that subject, a row of ornamental peppers would be a cool transition, halfway between a veggie and an ornamental plant? Maybe next year. |

I don't have any suggestions, but I just wanted to say you made a huge improvement it looks great! |

Sedum sieboldiana would hang down nicely over the edge and stay neat. Gets a nice flower late in the year as well. tj |

RALEIGH Within a day after the Vortex ride malfunctioned at the North Carolina State Fair and injured five people last fall, investigators suspected that someone had tampered with the rides safety mechanism, according to a search warrant made public Thursday.
Investigators obtained the warrant on Oct. 25, the day after the accident, to seize handwritten notes, inspection reports and five jumper wires they think were used to bypass safety mechanisms and keep the machine in operation, according to a court affidavit made public with the warrant.
Two days after the accident, sheriffs deputies arrested ride operator Tim Tutterow, 46, who was at the switch when the accident occurred. The Vortex owner, Joshua Gene Macaroni, 32, was later arrested. Both have been charged with three counts of assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury.
Wake County Sheriffs investigator D. Weaver obtained the search warrant to look for evidence indicating Macaroni and the ride operators knew the machine was malfunctioning. Weaver stated in the court affidavit that he wanted to seize information related to the operation and maintenance of the ride, any tools or devices used to bypass the standard operation of the ride and all communication handwritten or electronic between Macaroni and his employees, according to the court affidavit.
The Vortex riders had unbuckled their safety restraints and were exiting when the machine started to move and then sped up. A ride employee and four members of one family were thrown from the ride before the operator stopped it. Their injuries ranged from minor to critical, Weaver wrote.
After questioning Macaroni, Tutterow and other ride employees, sheriffs investigators determined that they were all aware that the Vortex was malfunctioning. The Vortexs glitches were related to the deployment and release of the safety harnesses (and) restraints for the passengers, Weaver wrote.
The deputies also learned that Macaroni and his employees had been aware of the problem three days before the accident, on Oct. 21, court records show.
Inspectors with the N.C. Department of Labor had inspected the Vortex before the accident and found a cracked weld and problems with the electrical box, and Macaroni was ordered to fix them, prosecutors said during a court hearing last month in Wake County District Court.
Prosecutors accused Macaroni of tampering with the electrical box after the inspection. Weaver, the sheriffs investigator, stated in the search warrant application that in order to keep the ride in operation, key safety mechanisms were bypassed by Tutterow under Macaronis direction.
In addition to jumper wires, notes and inspection reports, investigators seized a Dell laptop computer, a Vortex manual, a box that contained an electrical board, and loose coins: 458 pennies, 29 nickles, 28 dimes, one dollar, two foreign coins and a screw.

This one-day workshop is open to qualified and student aromatherapists.
One of the joys of life is taking the time to be pampered in order to face each new day looking and feeling our best. Aromatherapy facials are deep skin treatments that cleanse, rehydrate and rejuvenate the skin, as well as minimizing skin blemishes, acne, dry skin and wrinkles. Our skin is our largest organ, performing several functions, including protecting us from invasion by foreign substances and serving as the transfer point for the release of toxins from our bodies. The skin provides an honest mirror of our inner health and well-being. It is therefore especially important to use only natural, gentle ingredients on our skin whenever possible. Application to the skin of fresh, natural products such as essential oils, hydrosols and cold pressed unscented oils helps maintain a youthful, glowing complexion. Essential oils and hydrosols are fundamental components of any solid, natural skin care regime – they have potent and specific curative properties that are of particular benefit to the skin. Used in tandem, essential oils, hydrosols and cold pressed unscented oils work together to soothe and nourish the skin, encouraging a healthful, radiant complexion. This special day is dedicated to the stand alone aromatherapy facial and designed to help you plan your own – unique - treatment. This is a hands on day filled in with tips and ideas!

For all its amazing growth in recent decades, it might surprise some that 61 percent of Coweta County is still considered to be forest land.

Thursday night the Peachtree City Council is expected to sign off on the $532,021 proposed budget for the city's newly-named Convention and Visitors Bureau, formerly known as the Peachtree City Tourism Association.
The proposed budget shows the CVB spending $273,204 on sales, marketing and promotion efforts for the city. A large part of the CVB mission is to focus on events that boost the city's local hotels and motels, which in turn provide revenue for CVB via the city's hotel-motel tax.
CVB plans to spend $127,000, or 24 percent of its budget, on local tourism events. Read More»

The Fayetteville City Council held to its promise to hold down any increase in property taxes this year. The council Aug. 19 approved a rollback millage rate of 3.24 mills. The rate will include 2.345 mills for the General Fund budget and .895 mills for the Capital Project Funds budget.
This year's rate is considered a rollback, or perhaps a roll-up, due to the reassessment of real property, most of which saw a decrease in value over the past year, Finance Director Lynn Robinson said. Read More»

Manager David Belisle's inspirational speech to his Rhode Island Little Leaguers on Aug. 18, which was wonderfully televised by ESPN, is "one for the ages." It ranks right with the Gettysburg Address, Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream," John Kennedy's Inaugural Address and other historical orations.
Coach Belisle's speech must be preserved for future generations in Cooperstown's Hall of Fame, the Little League Hall of Fame and other world-famous museums. It will be one of the inspiring moments of my lifetime.
Congratulations, Mr. Belisle, for an awe-inspiring tribute to your team.

Then I finally said, nope not fun anymore, quit went to a casual guild. I am able to top charts and play the class that I love, and the spec that I like. I miss blood dps though.
Really there is no reason for me to even have dual spec on my dk. I dont like pets, and I hate tanking on my dk.

The azure-blue sea and palm-tree-lined beach on El Nuevo Frutilandia's rustic painted sign hint at the Caribbean cuisine served inside. A modest menu highlights multiple courses of Cuban and Puerto Rican dishes, including meatless options such as mofongo vegetariano, a classic dish of fried plantains smashed together with olive oil and garlic. Pork is featured throughout the menu, whether roasted and sliced alongside ham and cheese in the Cuban sandwich, or fried as chops with a spritz of lemon and crown of onions.
El Pollo Supremo satisfies all appetites with its eclectic menu of Latin American fare. The bill of fare blends Cuban congri––beans and rice–– fried plantains, and Mexican burritos and tortas with a meal that deliciously unites all climes and cultures: charbroiled chicken, served with tortillas and homemade sauce.
Cuban herbs and citrus juices marinate slow-roasted pork, one of the many traditional Cuban dishes found on the menu at Habana Cuba. The cooks also fry omelets filled with plantains or potatoes, stuff avocados with marinated shrimp, and craft gluten-free items such as rib eye topped with onions. Bartenders complement meals with specialty cocktails, beers from all over the world, and imported coconut sodas made from the liquid that coconuts naturally excrete when placed next to a shipwreck survivor. Feasts unfold on Habana Cuba's dog-friendly outdoor patio or within its two-level restaurant, which hosts private sit-down dinners for up to 70 guests.
There's no tropical kitsch to be found in Habanas Cuban Cuisine's lovely, loungey corner space, but as Alameda magazine? wrote, it's still "the closest you?ll get to Cuba in Alameda for sure." That's due to a friendly, laid-back atmosphere and a menu of tapas and entrees that ranges from simple standards such as twice-fried plantains with pineapple salsa to a sugarcane-glazed pork chop with rum chutney.?You'll find the classic Cuban sandwich (ham, roast pork, swiss) at lunch, and there's even a brunch menu with inventive dishes such as a Cuban-style french toast with bread dipped in Cointreau, cream, and cinnamon. Fifteen equally creative mojitos are available by the glass or pitcher.
