Build prospect relationships based on trust and value, not loose connections based upon offering the lowest price.
Over the holiday break, I became very intrigued with Scott Stratten's "Hierarchy of Buying" concept as explained in his book, "UnMarketing: Stop Marketing. Start Engaging."
I have always been amazed at how many B2B marketers focus on the cold call, or "telespam," which Stratten calls the "bottom of the barrel." They still create one-size-fits-all newsletters or promotional messages as if their potential customers were waiting eagerly for an e-mail to gush about the virtues of a product or service they know nothing about.
Graphic from Stratten's blog post: "Aiming Your Company at the Bottom of the Barrel"
Cold calling often is a primary strategy because it doesn't cost much. Any salesperson has myriad vendors calling to rent lists or provide "hot" leads. But what is the true cost of these efforts?
As Stratten notes, you risk annoying 99 people in search of the 100th person that would be interested in your product or service. In close-knit B2B markets with a limited number of potential customers, this can put you at a disadvantage vs. your competition. For the interested party, you are battling your competition for low-margin business from customers comparing your offering based on price alone.
I agree with Stratten's contention that you should concentrate your efforts on the middle of the pyramid, on prospects that were referred to you by a trusted source - ideally your own satisfied customers - as well as prospects who have developed a relationship with your brand but have not yet purchased, and those who consider you to be a recognized expert in the field. This will allow you to build prospect relationships based on trust and value, not loose connections based upon offering the lowest price.
Consider the following tips as you develop e-mail-marketing programs that focus on the middle.
The Last Word
As Stratten mentions in his book, many B2B marketers don't focus on the middle of the pyramid because it takes time. It isn't a silver bullet that will produce more leads and more revenue tomorrow.
But as we have learned, focusing on the bottom isn't the best strategy either. It will fill your pipeline with prospects seeking the lowest price over value.
Building trust and fostering relationships with people who see you as an expert in your industry will continually fill your sales pipeline with high-value prospects who will help you generate high-margin business for years to come.

Anabolic Medications Make New Bone
Anabolic medication for osteoporosis actually increases bone thickness and strength! Antiresorptive medications for osteoporosis (Fosamax, Alendronate, Actonel, Atelvia, Boniva, Evista, Reclast, Prolia) only preserve bone.
We have talked about all of the Antiresorptive medications over the last 2 months. They are excellent treatment if slowing down the OsteoClasts (cells that eat away your bone) is sufficient. That is not always the case.
Now it is time to talk about something completely different. Anabolic medication stimulates the OsteoBlasts (cells that make new bone matrix). OsteoBlasts can rebuild your bones. If you have Fractures, your bones may need to be rebuilt.
Forteo (Teriparatide) is the only Anabolic medication for osteoporosis in the USA. Close cousins of Forteo are available in other countries.
You may need the Anabolic, Forteo, if you have a hip fracture, multiple other fractures, or if VFA testing reveals a Vertebral Compression Fracture. A DXA T-score well below -2.5 can be reason enough without fracture.
Glucocorticoid (Cortico-Steroid) medications (Prednisone, Steroid Inhalers) specifically supress OsteoBlasts (cells that make new bone). Stimulating the OsteoBlasts with the Anabolic, Forteo, can offset the bone loss from Steroid medications. Smoking also supresses OsteoBlasts, leading to bone loss. Stopping Smoking would be best, but Forteo can help.
Not everyone needs an Anabolic, but some individuals do. A Complete Bone Health Evaluation will tell you if an Anabolic is right for you.
More about Forteo (Teriparatide) next time.

Aunt Henrietta – A Triumph
Aunt Henrietta's 90th birthday party was a triumph. Over 100 friends, neighbors, and relatives attended. She planned and arranged it all herself. This was not the feeble 89 year old of last fall. This was the comeback kid.
6 years ago Henrietta had fallen and broken both wrists and a shoulder in 3 separate incidents. That was before she took Forteo, followed by Prolia. Last year she was sick enough to be falling several times a day. But she did not break anything! Had she broken she would probably not have celebrated her 90th.
Aunt Henrietta waited until age 83 to start taking enough Calcium (Adora Premium Chocolates), enough Vitamin D, and almost enough Protein. Then she waited until she had fractured both wrists and a shoulder before starting osteoporosis medication.
I am not happy that she still falls ocassionally in her 3 level house, but I know that now she doesn't break anything.
Aunt Henrietta is a triumph.
You don't have to wait as long as she did to check up on your bone health. Get a Complete Bone Health Evaluation.
Take Control of your future now.

Aunt Henrietta's Birthday
This weekend is Aunt Henrietta's 90th birthday. I have just the right gift for her, Adora Premium Chocolates. My Aunt Henrietta has been our posterchild since the beginning of Cedar Valley Bone Health Institute of Iowa. Her adventures are well chronicled.
First, she broke one wrist when she was thrown down by a throw rug. Then she broke the other wrist when her bifocals did her in. Then she broke her shoulder when she thought all the ice had melted.
I had to tell her Endocrinologist about the Anabolic, Forteo. She agreed to give herself a daily shot. Then she proved that treatment had worked by falling down the stairs and not breaking anything.
Finally she locked in the gains of Forteo by starting the Antiresorptive that gets along with her severe GERD and aging kidneys, Prolia.
She can live alone in her own home because she Took Control of her bone health, with Calcium, Vitamin D3, Protein, Multiple Vitamins and Minerals, and Osteoporosis Medications. They are all necessary.
Happy Birthday Aunt Henrietta!

Aromatase Inhibitors for Breast Cancer
Aromatase Inhibitors (AI) do a great job treating Breast Cancers which are Estrogen dependent. The AI wipe out all Estrogen thereby depriving the breast cancer of a needed stimulus.
Unfortunately, Aromatase Inhibitor treatment will also do considerable damage to your bones unless you take medication to protect your bones. The good news is that we have medication which can completely offset the harm AI treatment could do to your bones. But, you have to take it, and the sooner you start, the better.
Prolia (Denosumab for Osteoporosis) is specifically approved by the FDA for use in patients using Aromatase Inhibitors (AI) for their breast cancer. Prolia is specifically for women without metastases. Prolia can delay and/or prevent matastases when given early. Xgeva (Denosumab for Cancer) is used if metastases are already present.

LAGUNA NIGUEL -- A 21-year-old man had apparently stopped taking anti-depressant medication and showed signs of mental instability before he stabbed his mother, roommate and an Orange County Sheriff's deputy on Tuesday night, his mentor and dance teacher said.
Authorities said another deputy eventually shot and killed suspect Connor Bishop Zion during the altercation at a condominium complex near Marina Hills Drive. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The injured deputy was out of the hospital and "expected to go through the necessary medical steps to recover," Lt. Matthew Barr, Laguna Niguel chief of police services, said Friday. He said an investigation into the incident was continuing by the Orange County District Attorney's Office, as with all officer-involved shootings. The deputies' names were not released.
Zion's mother Kym and his 49-year-old roommate were not badly injured and out of the hospital, said Patricia West, a family friend and Connor Zion's mentor and ballroom dance teacher.
"It's crazy. It's so out of character, out of line," West said on Friday. "He was a good kid. He was helpful."
West taught Zion ballroom dance at her Laguna Niguel studio for about two years since he moved to Laguna Niguel from Seattle. She said she knew that he was on and off anti-depression medication.
"To the best of my knowledge, he had stopped taking his medication several weeks ago," she said.
Kym Zion travelled from Seattle to Laguna Niguel on Tuesday to check on her son, West said. West said she is a "very close family friend" and was speaking on behalf of Kym Zion, who was "destroyed" and "unbelievably sad."
When Kym Zion arrived at the apartment on Tuesday evening, Connor Zion came down the stairs and apparently "didn't recognize his mother," West said.
Kym Zion told West that her son then said some strange things before grabbing a kitchen knife. Connor Zion's older male roommate was also in the room, she said.
"They thought he was going to harm himself," West said. "There was a tussle to subdue him, to get him on the floor."
That's when both the mother and roommate were stabbed, West said, and presumably around the time when police were called, at 7:30 p.m.
Witnesses later said one of the deputies who responded was seen wrestling with a man on the ground outside, trying to take away a knife.
Another deputy then shot Zion, said Sheriff's Lt. Jeff Hallock. Witnesses said they heard several shots fired.
West remembers her student as a "very, very talented" ballroom dancer. "He loved to dance more than anything," she said. "That was kind of his reason for life."

They've got a new album slated for early 2015, and they've shared the scrappy garage-rock gem "We Are The Champion," which comes with an endearingly low-budget video following a homeless guy who becomes a cigar-smoking big shot in a cold medicine-induced dream or something. You can watch it below.

Of course they are the weak link in loss in the financial aspects of the "Cyber war", but that isn't the only aspect of the "Cyber War". There are many factors, from how secure the system is (read my blog post on how secure Microsoft really is), to what the settings of the machine are, to other issues, such as how many people use bittorrent softwares that enforce verification requirements. But yes, they have alot to lose, because 1. they're microsoft and 2. they cost money to get their software. Don't take it as a surprise. Linux is probibillly just as vulnerable. Its just that people haven't been able to find those vulnerabilities. But mark my words, they are there.

Thomas Jefferson: "God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion.
The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is
wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts
they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions,
it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty.
This is the blood lost. The school people were tyrants, and they were trying to gain their rights back. A few people got hurt. Boo Hoo. Good for them. Let them jack off in their office. Human nature has people interested in finding the truth, which is not always what is taught in schools these days. They try to make us believe that we have no rights as minors, and we sit prettily, ignoring the blatently obvious fact of the matter that we do have rights. I use a school computer to exercize my right to freedom of speech. I have every right to. And yet, they try to tell me to keep off of Slashdot even on my own computer. Would you believe that they tried hacking into my computer via SSH? Failed, but they guessed my password for a different user.
The school system doesn't have the right to restrict freedom of speech, because they don't own jack. The people who own the schools "property" are the people who pay the taxes to fund the institutions of hell. Not them. They have no right to forbid us from our rights on or off of school property.
I know I am right, and any attempt to say otherwise will be debated to wits end until you realize your errors. I am willing to defend the truth that all men are created. According to Jason Lewis, Freedom of Speech was brought into the equasion specially to insult, and yet they are saying you don't have such a right? What a bunch of moronic bastards.

I am, at this very moment, using my tmobile mytouch slide to control my laptop. I don't know how this technology works, but it is awsome! I can, literally, control my computer from anywhere.
Two great pieces of news. One is that I have achieved something some geeks don't, I moved out of my moms house, but into my grandmas house. My grandma obtained official legal custody today. I'm happy. I am away from my mom the bitch.
The other good news is I got a new android phone, the tmobile mytouch swipe. Love at first use on this phone. Review comming later.
I write an essay yesterday, making it sound as downplaying to the average person, and I get 20 out of 20. Something is wrong with that. I tell a person that they have no way of join the geek society if they don't join before age 10 and yet she gives me 20 out of 20. Jeez. I mean, it was meant to see how biased her grading scale is, in terms of insults. I gave her the ultimate insult and called the people reading, for a lack of better terminology at the time, STUPID! I sometimes wonder. Does this indicate that the average person is willing to admit that nerds and geeks are better than them? Or is it that she didn't have the ability to find another different English teacher for me for the rest of the year? She is a seemingly average American. Something is wrong with America, if a teacher tells a student good job for calling her stupid. Other than the fact that they force children to go to school.
What do you think of the viability of legal bittorrents, such as music and movie distribution, updates, et al?
Every time I decide to mess off on my school computer in school, I observe the following things. 1. I end up in Firefox Private Browsing. 2. I end up with a full bar (or more) of minnimum-sized tabs. 3. My beautiful girls flash drive becons to me.
Is this normal?
I just got on a computer, loaded up runescape, used the KVM to hide that i was on Facebook and Slashdot, and found the computer that i didn't re-install had firefox 2.something, 2.5 i think. I am amazed. I mean, i haven't used anything before 3.5 at all this year, and i find firefox 2.5 on a computer
Just a disclaimer: I am using a POS iBook G4. This method is not guaranteed to work for any other computer.
Anyway, Slashdot looks so cool in negative. I got to it by pressing Command, Option, Ctrl, and 8, all at the same time. But it looks cool, especially the apple page.
Today, i find out that some asshole stole the remainder of my fresh gum supply, four pieces. So now, until i can get to the store, i have to survive on pre-chewed gum. At least it is myself who prechewed it.
I am currently trying to make a new hosts file as defined in numerous standards, and want a list of websites to spawn it on. Can someone give me a list?
Does anyone have an old copy of the SRI-NIC Hosts.txt file? I want a copy of such so that I can do a study on the history of the internet, along with create a list of web sites in current use.
I have a unique situation. Attached to the internet is my router. Attached to my router is 3 computers, 2 of which we will ignore, one via wifi. Attached to this computer is another computer via ethernet cable, with a KVM switch for both of them. Attached to the furthest from the internet one, i have a pair of speakers and a speaker. Is there any way to make these two items shared between both of these computers? One machine is Windows Vista, controling the printer and speakers, and one is Ubuntu 10.04.
Yesterday I took the NWEA tests, and got a score of 276 (many people who have taken school since the advent of the computer probably know that this score corresponds with Calculus, or in that area). That isn't that important. What I'm wondering is, I got a question where the square root ended up negative, and it wanted an "exact" answer. The answer choices included a symbol I have never seen before. It is i, and it showed something like (3 / 4 + sqrt(7) i / 5 , 3 / 4 - sqrt(7) i / 5), and I wonder what it is. Can someone help me?
Right now i am making a universal pi finder, using the Gauss-Legendre Algorithm [wikipedia.org] . Currently, I am working on the pseudo-code for the entire project, focusing at the moment on the finding of the square roots. Any and all help is appreciated.

Follow-Up Postings:
I believe it held kerosene. Linda C |
It's a kerosene reservoir for a kerosene kitchen range. The clue is the valve stem sticking out the top of the lid. This jug sat at on the end of the range and fed kerosene into a small pipe. The pipe ran the length of the stove. Each burner was plumbed with short pieces of tubing to the supply pipe. After filling the jug, it was quickly up ended over its receptacle and sat down. The valve in the lid was depresed opening the cap to feed the fuel. The fuel would bubble out until the fuel level covered the opening in the lid. At this point, air is shut off from getting into the jug and atmospheric pressure holds the fuel in the jug. Works just like a jug of bottled water on a water dispenser. It s critical that the stove be leveled. If the far end of the stove is too low, the fuel will spill out the last burner and dump the contents of the reservior. If the jug end of the stove is too low, the burners at the far end will starve for fuel. Usually, the oven was at the far end. A typical range had 4 burners and an oven. The burners had circular wicks that sat in a pool of kerosene. The wick was raised for lighting and burning. The height of the flame was regulated by the height of the wick. To put out a flame, the wick was lowered into its shield. This cooled the fuel at the top edge of the wick to below ignition temperature and the flame would go out - hopefully. When turning the jug over to place it on the stove, it often dribbled a little fuel because that valve in the lid did not make a perfect seal. That'a why one did not invert the jug until it was directly over its receiver. As you may well guess by now, those old kerosene ranges were big fire hazards. The kitchen floors in old farm houses were often not level. It was not unheard of to see some wood blocks under a couple of legs to aid leveling. I've seen floors that were so uneven they was beyond the range of the levelers built into the legs of the stove. This was s disaster waiting to happen. Picture the house wife canning jams and jellies and the burners are going full blast when a child walks by and stubs a toe on one of those blocks kicking it away. The stove drops at the corner, the pots nearly spill, and recall what the kerosene does when the stove is grossly unleveled. It is really a scramble if its the far end of the stove that is dropped. How do I know? We had one in our house during the early 1940s when I was a child. Although it was convenient, we got rid of it and did all the cooking on a wood fired range. |

Sous Vide rocks! Thanks dcarch & FOAS
posted by: arley on 01.27.2014 at 02:33 pm in Cooking Forum Many thanks to dcarch and FOAS--I got my sous vide up and running last weekend, and it's great. Everything I cooked in it so far has come out tender and juicy. I'm using dcarch's info and FOAS's advice, and my only contribution is to point out current sources for the parts you need. If you're interested in making one, you can probably cobble together one for under $100 including an Igloo cooler. You may have some of this stuff around the house anyway, so your cost may be even less.
You can buy a ready made sous vide setup for $400-$500, but if you want to make a contraption like this, it's really easy. The heart of the rig is a STC-1000 temperature controller. You can get them online for $15 to $20. For this application it functions basically as an 'open on rise' thermostat: when a temperature is reached, it cuts the power to the heater element. The heat is provided by a 500w aquarium heater element. These are available online for $30-40. (you want the kind without a thermostat; you'll be using the STC-1000 as a thermostat). Another item you might want is a small submersible dc high temp water pump; I got one online for $18. You'll need a cooler, but you probably have one around the house anyway; I got a Igloo Marine 25 qt cooler for about $19 at Walmart. You can get whatever size you think you might want, and the guts of the system are easily moved from one cooler to another if you need a bigger setup. You'll also need a few inexpensive items to wire it up: an electrical handy box ($2), an electrical outlet ($2), a faceplate, and some sort of enclosure. For a power cord, I used a polarized two-prong extension cord and cut off the socket end; I used a foot of that cord for hookup wire in the box. I also rigged up a little rack made of CPVC pipe to attach the pump. That way I'm not making any attachments to the inside of the cooler. The STC-1000 is often used by homebrewers to control the temperature of a refrigerator for precise fermentation. It can turn on either a heating element or a cooling element. You can download wiring diagrams for the STC-1000, and if you do just ignore the cooling circuitry--you're only going to be using this to control the heater. Here are the specific items I obtained: Aquarium Heater element without thermostat: Circulation pump--not absolutely necessary, but it'll ensure a stable temp throughout the cooler: This is one of several small submersible DC pumps available online. Make sure you get one that says 'high temperature--you can't just use an aquarium pump as they aren't made to operate at sous vide temperatures. Google 'submersible DC pump suitable for sous vide' and you'll get lots of hits. You might need a power supply for your pump. This one works well, and you can select your voltage to match your pump ( although you might have a suitable wall-wart transformer around the house). If you cut into the black cord, you'll find a black and a red wire so it's easy to match the polarity of your pump: This really is a fun project. If any of you have any questions, let me know. I guarantee if you like rare or medium rare steaks, you'll love how the stuff comes out of this cooker. Here's the inside of the cooler. The long silver thing at the bottom with the suction cups is the aquarium heater element, the black cylinder at the upper right is the pump, and the cord to the left is the temperature probe that goes back to the STC 1000. The rack is made of CPVC, and the weight of the pump is enough to keep it from floating. But if you make a bigger one, you might need to put sand or gravel in the pipes to keep it from floating. Finally, so that the food pouches don't touch the heater element directly, I bent an aluminum soffit vent (about $2) to shape to make a guard over the element. NOTES: <none>

RE: Marble and Granite Countertop Sealers (Follow-Up #5)
posted by: cat_mom on 10.23.2007 at 10:32 pm in Kitchens Forum Kevin--I don't know where how to get the K.R. 33 except from my fabricators. I know they import it from Italy (according to them). It is made by (?) Industria Chimica General in Modena/Italy. http//www.generalchemical.it
email: email@example.com On the can it says: Brightens, polishes, protects marbles and granite. It definitely shined up/polished the granite on the island, which was NOT as shiny/polished looking as the granite on the other counter spaces. I don't think it's supposed to last 5-7 years though, so I don't know how it would compare to the 511PP. I have to tell you, that I had posted on another thread a few months ago, about some whitish rings that appeared on our granite after placing a chilled wine bottle on it (different bottles, different occasions, and it happened with a beer bottle, too, I think). Some of our very helpful resident advisors here on GW suggested that our granite (Labrador Golden Flake) wouldn't need to be sealed, as it is a black granite, and that it was likely an excess of sealer that caused the rings to appear. I can't imagine not using it though, it really did a fantastic job of polishing up the stone, and I feel better knowing that it is protected against staining (however likely or unlikely that is to happen). Care to weigh in? NOTES: <none>

RE: Marble and Granite Countertop Sealers (Follow-Up #1)
posted by: cat_mom on 10.23.2007 at 09:24 am in Kitchens Forum KR 33. It's an Italian sealer/polish or restorer (I don't remember exactly what it says on the can); it's the only one our fabricator uses. It's a penetrating sealer and is very easy to apply. Our island granite for some reason, didn't look as polished or glossy as the rest of the granite in the kitchen after install. A few months later, after I'd gotten my own can of the stuff, I went over it with some of the KR 33. What a difference! It really brought out the shine or lustre of the stone.

Having a plan helps you reach for healthy foods when you arrive home ravenous or need a snack in a pinch when you're on the go, instead of relying on convenience foods or vending machines. When you make a plan and stock your fridge with cut-up fruits, veggies and other healthy snacks, these nutritious choices become "convenience" food because they're ready when you need them. If you are following our meal plan, you're in luck—all the meals and snacks are planned for you. And, if you're not, check it out here—you might like to try it.
Pictured Recipe: Shrimp Fried Rice
Today's Editor's Tip:
Breana Lai, Associate Food Editor
"Having a plan for what I'm going to eat for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks keeps me from making unhealthy spur-of-the-moment food decisions when I get hungry and tired (like after a long day at work). I typically go to the grocery store with a list on Sunday and stock up with food to make healthy meals for the week, plus extra fruits, veggies and yogurt for snacks. When my fridge and pantry are stocked with good-for-me options, it's easier to get a healthy meal on the table and I'm much less tempted to pick up takeout on my way home."
Actionable Tip: Plan out and write down your meals and snacks for the next 5 days.

- Repairing your barricade
- Searching for weapons
- Looking for other survivors to help repair, search and defend the barricade.

- 11 different weapons
- 3500+ random zombie appearances

- Oh and this is my first flash game...
LAST STAND 2 is out! Check it out at Armorgames.com for the full experience.
Great game! Once I got the barreta it was pretty much over XD all zombies 1 shot and i had all the survivors with me so my barricade pretty much took no damage from that point on. Although when I first started there was a bug where it would not let me shoot or it would not let me move. I think it happened when i tried to manually reload.
I like it, a nice challenging game. But I found a bug where when I retried I was moving around as a dead corpse sprite and i couldn't use weapons.
Sharp Start of the series and a nice shooter classic.
I remember i played this game quite a few times when i was young since it didn't had so much replay value, but from those few i remember i had fun.
The Second had improved quite much of what lacked here, since i didn't finded out a lot of glitches i wouldn't say it had errors.
Gameplay is quite linear with it's day-by-day survival premise, however it keeps you playing with more expectations of being rescued at the end.
Whenever a zombie horde goes at you its pretty intense since the barricade has a strength meter that whenever a zombie hits it you go crazy at how the number decreases and when it counts to 0, it breaks and they walk slowly at you, only to kill you at a single bite.
It also makes you decide when it comes to use daylight hours to search for survivors, guns or repair the barricade, which makes you think of how much would you use for each thing as a need.
Without the need of any physics the zombie kill animations seem pretty natural, even if the sound of blood is pretty much forshadowed as it sounds like a splash of a water. And the chainsaw, which sounds like it was extracted from a tv.
Guns are relatively effective (not counting much of the pistol...) since you have 2 guns slots and as you decide whether to search for weapons, you can feel which one can be effective at hordes or close-combat and you can actually feel which one can be effective by any situation
*Uzi is good at rate of fire, not much damage or accuracy
*Hunting rifle is good at damage and accuracy, not much as rate of fire
*Sawn off shotgun is really good at damage, not much at distance or accuracy or rate of fire
That's how you can relate the guns, and with 2 pick choices.
Of course, i wouldn't say it would have been longer, it has a well difficulty level as we encounter with more zombies, as well as zombies with armor, which seemed as a good concept to shoot them straight in the face, and i wouldn't say what it lacked because that would be too much to ask, specially for a flash game well done in 2007, yet it's secuel had a lot of content that this one didn't had, yet, by it's age and for what it is, it will always be remembered as a heck of a shooter that no one else but Con-Artists brought to us.
This game is great!!!! The action makes you feel all pumped up and the process of the search (since you could lose people) is what makes it a great game! The only reason why this isn't a 5 star game is that that many people saying its too 'hard'. The simple solution to that is hard-core mode. I personally thought is was easy. Tips are automatic sucks, shotguns are good, chainsaws for panic and the hunting rifle = 1 shot ko (3-5 shot if they have armor on) Go with the Hunting rifle and the smaller shotgun. Trust me.

Berkshire Bank conducts annual food driveSept. 17, 2012 |
PITTSFIELD – In support of National Hunger Action Month this September, Berkshire Bank is conducting its 5th annual food drive through its Employee Volunteer Program. The drive will run through Sept. 28, and the food collected at all bank locations will be given to local food pantries in those communities served by Berkshire Bank. Last year, approximately 8,700 pounds of non-perishable food items were collected, and this year the goal is 10,000 pounds. Food collection boxes are set up at each Berkshire Bank location in Massachusetts, New York, and Vermont. Customers and the public are invited to participate in the food drive by donating non-perishable goods at their local Berkshire Bank office. Recommended items include peanut butter and jelly, canned beans, rice, pasta and canned pasta sauce, hearty soups, tuna fish and cereals. A complete list of accepted items can be found at any bank location. Each Berkshire Bank office has teamed up with a local food pantry in its community to ensure the food collected stays to help those directly affected by hunger in the local area. In addition to food, bank branches will also accept monetary donations that will be donated to local food pantries. For every $1 donated, a food bank can purchase $10 to $13 worth of food. According to Peter Lafayette, executive director of Berkshire Bank Foundation, "Thousands of people in our local communities depend on food assistance from local food pantries to feed themselves and their families. This year local food pantries have seen a decline in both food and monetary donations while also seeing an increase in demand. This has resulted in some food pantries shutting their doors because of the lack of donations and inability to meet the demand. It's more important than ever that during these difficult times we rally as a community to support our local food pantries and help those who are hungry." The Food Drive is one of many projects that are part of the bank's Employee Volunteer Program which carries out community service projects in communities served by the bank. Annually, 50 percent of the bank's employees participate in community service volunteer projects and programs and they contributed more than 26,000 hours of service in 2011. The Employee Volunteer Program is another way the bank demonstrates its commitment to the communities in which it does business in addition to the $1.5 million dollars it awards annually to nonprofit organizations through its two charitable foundations. |

If you've sprained your ankle, you know what severe pain is.
But maybe that "sprain" was a "strain" or possibly even a "break."
The amount of pain in each case can be virtually equal, so oftentimes the only way to find out what you have is to see a doctor.
Here are some facts on musculoskeletal injuries:
Sprains are a stretch and/or tear of a ligament, the tissue connecting two bones. Ligaments stabilize and support the body's joints. For example, ligaments in the knee connect the upper leg with the lower leg, enabling people to walk and run.
Strains are a twist, pull and/or tear of a muscle and/or tendon. Tendons are cords of tissue that connect muscles to bones.
Breaks are a fracture, splinter or complete break in bone, often caused by accidents, sports injuries or bone weakness.
Health care providers attend to millions of Americans with musculoskeletal injuries each year, according to the United States Bone and Joint Decade (USBJD). The USBJD says that about 18.4 million sprains and strains were treated in 2007. And about 16.2 million fractures were treated.
A sprain is caused by trauma — a fall, twist, or blow to the body, for example — that applies stress to a joint and overstretches or even ruptures supporting ligaments.
In a mild sprain, a ligament is stretched, but the joint remains stable and is not loosened. A moderate sprain partially tears the ligament, causing the joint to be unstable. With a severe sprain, ligaments tear completely or separate from the bone. This loosening interferes with how the joint functions. You may feel a tear or pop in the joint. Although the intensity varies, all sprains commonly cause pain, swelling, bruising, and inflammation.
The ankle is the most commonly sprained joint. And a sprained ankle is more likely if you've had a previous sprain there. Repeated sprains can lead to ankle arthritis, a loose ankle or tendon injury.
Acute strains are caused by stretching or pulling a muscle or tendon. Chronic strains are the result of overuse of muscles and tendons, through prolonged, repetitive movement. Inadequate rest during intense training can cause a strain.
Typical symptoms of strain include pain, muscle spasm, muscle weakness, swelling, inflammation and cramping. In severe strains, the muscle and/or tendon is partially or completely ruptured, resulting in serious injury. Some muscle function will be lost with a moderate strain, in which the muscle/tendon is overstretched and slightly torn. With a mild strain, the muscle or tendon is stretched or pulled, slightly.
These are some common strains:
Back strain. When the muscles that support the spine are twisted, pulled or torn. Athletes who engage in excessive jumping — during basketball or volleyball, for example — are vulnerable to this injury.
Hamstring muscle strain. A tear or stretch of a major muscle in the back of the thigh. The injury can sideline a person for up to 6 months. The likely cause is muscle strength imbalance between the hamstrings and the quadriceps, the muscles in the front of the thigh. Kicking a football, running or leaping to make a basket can pull a hamstring. Hamstring injuries tend to recur.
Bone breaks, unlike sprains and strains, should always be looked at by a health care provider to ensure proper healing. Call your provider if the pain does not subside or if the bone appears to be deformed. Seek urgent medical care if you have numbness, weakness, or poor circulation in the injured limb.
All sports and exercises, even walking, carry a risk of sprains. The areas of the body most at risk for a sprain depend on the specific activities involved. For example, basketball, volleyball, soccer and other jumping sports share a risk for foot, leg and ankle sprains.
Soccer, football, hockey, boxing, wrestling and other contact sports put athletes at risk for strains. So do sports that feature quick starts, such as hurdling, long jump and running races. Gymnastics, tennis, rowing, golf and other sports that require extensive gripping put participants at higher risk for hand strains. Elbow strains frequently occur in racquet, throwing and contact sports.
A severe sprain or strain may require surgery or immobilization, followed by physical therapy. Mild sprains and strains may require rehabilitation exercises and a change in activity during recovery.
In all but mild cases, your health care provider should evaluate the injury and establish a treatment and rehabilitation plan.
Meanwhile, rest, ice, compression and elevation (called RICE) usually will help minimize damage caused by sprains and strains. You should start RICE immediately after the injury.
RICE relieves pain, limits swelling and speeds healing, and it is often the best treatment for soft-tissue injuries, such as sprains and strains. Here's what to do:
Rest. The injured area should be moved as little as possible to allow healing to begin.
Ice. Apply it immediately to reduce inflammation, which causes more pain and slows healing. Cover the injured area with an ice pack wrapped in a towel for about 15 to 20 minutes, 3 to 4 times a day.
Compression. Using a pressure bandage helps to prevent or reduce swelling. Use an elastic bandage. Wrap the injured area without making it so tight that it will cut off the blood supply.
Elevation. Raise the injured area above the level of the heart. Prop up a leg or arm while resting it. You may need to lie down to get your leg above your heart level.
Do all 4 parts of the RICE treatment at the same time. If you suspect a more serious injury, such as a broken bone, call your health care provider immediately.
No one is immune to sprains and strains, but here are some tips to help reduce your risk for injury:
Take part in a conditioning program to build muscle strength.
Do stretching exercises every day.
Always wear shoes that fit properly.
Nourish your muscles by eating a well-balanced diet.
Warm up before any sports activity, including practice, and use or wear protective equipment that's right for that sport.

Cattle climbed on speculation that a second snowstorm in the U.S. Great Plains will disrupt movement of animals and beef supplies. Hogs dropped.
Blizzard warnings from eastern New Mexico through the Texas Panhandle into Oklahoma and Kansas, according to the National Weather Service. Winter-storm warnings and advisories reach across Missouri, Arkansas and Illinois into Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. Parts of the Midwest received more than a foot (30 centimeters) of snow last week.
"You had improving cash trade on Friday," Mark Schultz, the chief analyst for Northstar Commodity Investment Co. in Minneapolis, said in a telephone interview. "Hopefully, that spills into a little more because of the winter storm coming in. You've got a lot of high winds and blizzard conditions" that disrupts supplies and "backs them up a little bit," he said.
Cattle futures for April delivery rose 0.3 percent to $1.2865 a pound at 9:37 a.m. on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Prices were down 3.1 percent this year through Feb. 22.
Feeder-cattle futures for March settlement slid 0.3 percent to $1.4085 a pound.
The cattle-on-feed report released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture after the close of regular trading on Feb. 22 was "encouraging" for the market as feedlots sold 5.6 percent more cattle to slaughterhouses in January than a year earlier, Schultz said. Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg had forecast a 4.6 percent increase.
Pork inventories rose 3.4 percent at the end of January from a year earlier, the USDA said in a separate report after the close of regular trading on Feb. 22. The cold-storage report was "a little negative," Schultz said.
Hog futures for April settlement declined 0.6 percent to 81.125 cents a pound. A close at that price would mark the ninth straight drop, the longest losing streak since Oct. 6, 2008.

Would this kind of tuner be of any help for you? Any way, I'd like to sketch

a starter and an easy to use GUI toolkit for a first version of a graphical

Here I'd like to ask the list for a hint with which kind of GUI Toolkit

OpenGL crashing w/ Nvidia driver 1.0-9746
Checking in the NVIDIA X Server Settings, the exact same thing happens when I click on the "OpenGL/GLX Information" option in the list, every time. "OpenGL Settings" doesn't cause problems, but the other one immediately crashes me out. Anyone have an idea what's happening here? Everything else so far works as before, across both monitors.

As she glimpsed a sea of royal blue and white polos shirts, Bradwell Institute principal Dr. Vicki Albritton said she thought students looked great in their new school uniforms, which also help to easily identify those who belong on campus.
"Just the normal freshman stuff and the teachers' expectations," Joy Nelson said when asked why she brought her son, Anfernee, to open house at Bradwell Institute Tuesday afternoon.
Liberty County pre-k teacher, Sara Johnson, spent the afternoon introducing eager 4-year olds and their parents to the classroom.
Schools are back in session today for the 2008-09 academic year, but the Liberty County School System doesn't know exactly how many students to expect.
MOUNT VERNON - Dr. Jeff Edgens began his first full day as Dean of External Programs Aug. 1; however, he's already been making changes at the college since his hire June 30.

On paper, Republicans' best presidential candidate for 2016 would seem to be the sitting governor of Wisconsin, except for one possible problem: He never graduated from college.
Video games have been maligned for decades.
Radio personality Garrison Keillor used to have a standing joke that his fictional Lake Woebegon was where "all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and all the children are above average."

THE LANDING is the hot spot...
THE LANDING is the hot spot right now. like i said earlier, check out www.detourpr.com for nightlife
nightlife in 'the island' is very different than in the metropolitan area a.k.a. San juan...there are no clubs. there are only local pubs/bars since they are all small towns. and usually there are only 1,2, maybe 3 bars in the town. needless to say everyone knows each other so it might be strange for a foreigner to walk in. this is not the case so much in the west coast because the college town of Mayaguez drives the coast. because there are so little bars, thats why one night you might party in rincon, then mayaguez the next, boqueron the next, etc. So, it doesn't matter what town you stay in in the west coast, you can easily jump off to any in a heartbeat(this is assuming of course that you rented a car at the airport). anyway, the them is pretty much local live band. you drink, socialize(every one has at least some knowledge of english so there is no reason to shy away in the corner all night), and dance to the live band. bands in puerto rico play a lot of reagge/ska, cover songs to the latest american pop hits. it definitely has latin flavor and nothing is ever too hard(medium-core rock i would call it).
Dress Code: dress code...always a fun category. beach, surfer style (whatever you call it). right now, guys wear loose jeans(not baggy, not tight) and tucked in, buttoned-down, short sleeve shirts often with flower patterns. quicksilver is a big brand in puerto rico. girls wear tight clothes. of course, there are extremes like in any society, but the majority is pretty standard.
