Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Do Your Homework
Search Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" trading recommendations using our exclusive "Mad Money" Stock Screener.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Ignore the calendar and do the homework. That was Jim Cramer's advice to his "Mad Money" viewers Tuesday as he explained that trading based solely on what month it is is a total waste of time.
Cramer said that these seasonal and monthly patterns grab people's attention and seem to be perfectly logical, but in reality, they're totally bogus and only work until they don't.
The old adage that October is the most dangerous month for stocks no longer applies, said Cramer, and he outlined five reasons why. First, back when these patterns first emerged, the U.S. was in charge of its own destiny. But that's no longer the case, as the U.S. economy is forever linked to the well-being of China and Europe. Do the same patterns still hold true in the middle of a European financial crisis? Probably not. Second, these patterns never met a Federal Reserve willing to keep interest rates low by any means necessary. That changes the dynamic for all stocks, said Cramer. Next, there's Apple (AAPL), a stock which he owns for his charitable trust,Executive Decision
In the "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer spoke with Jim Prokopanko, president and CEO of fertilizer giant Mosaic (MOS - Get Report), a company which delivered a 15-cent-a-share earnings miss on an 18% drop in revenue amidst problems delivering its products to customers. Shares of Mosaic responded by falling 3.7% on the news. Prokopanko said that every year the world needs to feed 74 million more people, and the fastest way to accomplish that is by increasing the yield on every acre of farmland, which is done through fertilizer. He said the difference between today's rise in crop prices and that of 2008 boils down to risk tolerance. Back in 2008, dealers stocked up big on fertilizer as soon as crop prices rose, but today they're waiting to the last minute, which has kept demand tepid so far. "Farmers will be planting for maximum yield next year," Prokopanko said. As for the rest of the world, Prokopanko noted that India's decrease in subsidies for fertilizer has cooled demand in that country, but he expects demand to return as the shock factor wears off. China has adequate fertilizer supplies, noted Prokopanko, but that weakness is being offset by growth in the rest of Southeast Asia. Turning to his company's lackluster operating performance this quarter, Prokopanko said that many of Mosaic's problems were transient, such as low water levels on the Mississippi River followed by disruptions from Hurricane Isaac. Mosaic has dealt with those issues, he said, and will be able to deliver its products better going forward. Prokopanko also addressed the rising price of ammonia, a base chemical for fertilizer. He said ammonia prices are set by natural gas prices, and since the U.S. imports most of its ammonia, those prices are being set outside the U.S., where gas prices are far higher. But that's about to change as over 10 million tons of ammonia capacity is now under construction here in the U.S. and will be online over the next three to four years. Cramer said that Mosaic, a company with $3.6 billion of cash on its balance sheet and an excellent dividend, remains a growth stock worth considering.Winning Despite the Analysts
When analysts disagree, investors win, Cramer told viewers, as he looked into two differing analyst opinions on Costco (COST - Get Report), a stock that's up 19% so far this year. Cramer noted that last week, analysts at Bank of America (BAC) raised their targets on Costco and the next day Bernstein reiterated its bearish thesis on the stock. According to Bank of America, Costco is expected to have a strong holiday season and see a boost in its revenue thank to increased membership fees. The firm gave the stock a $110 price target. Meanwhile, Bernstein felt the stock's current rally is likely to fizzle as the chain continues to cut prices in order to take market share. So who's right? Cramer said he's siding with the bears, as much of Bank of America's expected good news is already baked into the share price. He said that the bull case from Bank of America only affords investors 10% of upside, which is not enough given that Costco shares trade at 20 times earnings, but only have a 12% growth rate. Selling near twice its growth rate, Cramer said that Costco is priced for perfection and if it stumbles in the least, investors will be hurt. That's why Cramer said he sold his position in Costco for Action Alerts PLUS back in June at $92 a share and would only be a buyer under $90 a share.Lightning Round
Here's what Cramer had to say about callers' stocks during the "Lightning Round": Nokia (NOK): "No, no. Nokia's symbol stands for Not OK. I will bless a trade in Research In Motion (RIMM). " Cellcom Israel (CEL): "Please do not touch it. That's way too risky for me." Windstream (WIN): "I was not convinced they're going to do well. I'll take a pass." Annaly Capital (NLY): "I like Annaly but I've switched to American Capital Agency (AGNC)."Off the Charts
In the "Off The Charts" segment, Cramer went head to head with colleague Tim Collins over the health of the real estate investment trusts, or REITs, using the chart of the iShares Dow Jones US Real Estate ETF (IYR), which is up 12.9% so far this year. Collins noted that the daily chart of the ETF shows it getting pummeled over the past few weeks, creating the beginning portions of the dreaded head-and-shoulders formation. This alone would not be cause for alarm but the index also failed to recapture its former ceiling of resistnce, signaling the bulls may have indeed given up. Collins said the $65.50 level remains key for this chart. The weekly chart didn't fare much better, as the wedge pattern of the ETF is showing a rounded top pattern, just as it did in the summer of 2011 right before a giant collapse. Collins felt that if the stock could hold the $63.50 level on this chart, it might avoid a similar fate. Cramer said Collins' research made him take pause and he advised viewers to be patient and wait for a pullback before pulling the trigger.No Huddle Offense
In his "No Huddle Offense" segment, Cramer opined on the news that Google (GOOG) surpassed Microsoft (MSFT - Get Report) in market capitalization. Cramer said that while the news itself isn't tradable, it is indicative of larger issues. He said that Microsoft will forever be linked to the PC, a business that's now in decline. Investors buy tech stocks for growth, he reminded viewers, and Microsoft won't have a lot of it going forward outside of its new product cycle. Also, Microsoft will never be "cool" in the eyes of the younger generations, something that will eventually haunt them as business IT departments get inundated with younger recruits. As for Google, it has momentum and is loved by the younger demographics. The company also has a solid mobile strategy. Those are just a few of the reasons it deserves a higher market cap than Microsoft.In Closing...
In his closing comments, Cramer said he remains bullish on Sprint Nextel (S), despite the stock's weakness on the MetroPCS (PCS) takeover announcement. --Written by Scott Rutt in Washington, D.C.

Best bets to replace Juan Pablo Montoya at Earnhardt Ganassi Racing
Team owner Chip Ganassi just became a pretty popular guy in the Sprint Cup garage.
Ganassi and Earnhardt Ganassi Racing have a fully funded Sprint Cup ride with no driver for 2014.
Ganassi has told Juan Pablo Montoya that he will not be back in the No. 42 car next season. The move wasn't all that surprising. Two wins and one Chase for the Sprint Cup appearance in seven years isn't exactly what Ganassi was looking for when he convinced Montoya to give stock-car racing a try after a successful open-wheel career.
So who will drive the Target-sponsored car starting next year?
Here are five drivers who could find themselves in the seat.
NASCAR's top free agents
2013 winners
Use arrow keys to navigate
of 5
Kurt Busch
Busch is wheelman. Ganassi wants a wheelman.
But whether they actually can get a deal done is a big question.
There's no doubt that Busch is one of the most talented drivers in the sport. He's the 2004 Cup champion and has 24 career victories.
The 35-year-old Busch is 11th in the Cup standings and challenging for a Chase spot in his first year with Furniture Row Racing.
Which brings up a valid point: Is Busch's current ride with Furniture Row better than an EGR ride? EGR drivers Jamie McMurray (15th) and Montoya (22nd) both are winless this year and have struggled since 2010.
Ganassi teams do use Hendrick engines and the organization is a little deeper with two teams. But Busch seems to be working well with Furniture Row, which is a technical alliance with Richard Childress Racing.
Then again, Ganassi probably has more funding and money can be awfully persuasive. Ganassi also owns IndyCar teams and Busch has talked recently about wanting to do the Indy-Charlotte double in May.
Ganassi likely would have to be persuasive with Target to convince it to sponsor a driver with a troubled past and who has embraced "The Outlaw" moniker.

Busch's Indy plans
of 5
Kyle Larson
Sporting News' top NASCAR prospect
, has just one NASCAR national series win — in a Truck Series race at Rockingham earlier this year — but even at just 21 years old, Ganassi could bring him to Cup.
Larson, who has a long-term deal with Ganassi, is eighth in the Nationwide Series standings with five top-five and 12 top-10 finishes in 21 races this year.
A standout on the sprint-car and midget circuits, Larson has been highly touted by Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon and others.
But is he ready for Cup? Is he in danger of being moved up too soon?
He certainly has the car control and maturity to handle it — he has not been fazed at all despite high-profile accidents that have included pieces of his car injuring fans at Daytona.
But whether he's ready for Cup, where feedback is key as teams improve the cars throughout the weekend, is debatable.
Ganassi, as he proved with Montoya seven years ago, likes to make bold moves. This would rank as one of his boldest.
Larson's win
Reliving Daytona crash
of 5
Ryan Newman
Newman, who already knows he won't be back with Stewart-Haas Racing next year, has 17 career wins, including one this year that has him currently in one of the two wild-card spots to make the Chase.
At 14th in the standings, Newman has shown he can still contend for wins, although his last multi-win season came in 2004. His win in the Brickyard 400 last month certainly helped his stock.
The 35-year-old Newman also is being considered for a ride at Richard Childress Racing. RCR might be a more secure place for Newman if Ganassi is just looking for a driver for one year to hold the spot until Larson is ready.
Brickyard win
Newman future
of 5
Mark Martin
If Ganassi doesn't think Larson is totally ready for a full-time Cup ride, the answer could be Mark Martin.
Martin has not driven a full schedule the last two years and his current ride at Michael Waltrip Racing will be in the full-time hands of Brian Vickers starting next season.
While it doesn't seem to be within the Ganassi model, it would seem logical that Martin could run a partial schedule for EGR next year and split time with Larson.
The 54-year-old Martin has 40 career wins and could serve as a mentor for the up-and-coming driver.
of 5
Regan Smith
Smith, who turns 30 next month, is third in the Nationwide standings driving for JR Motorpsorts.
He has extensive Cup experience, including a win at Darlington in 2011. He has three top-fives and 11 top-10s in 171 career Cup starts.
With Smith, the team would get a driver used to one-year deals and just hoping for another Cup opportunity. He might be willing to fill in for a year, knowing that Larson could be penciled in for 2015.

Rochelle Hamilton
High School Student
Rochelle Hamilton was born in Santa Rosa in 1992. At the age of three, she and her parents, Reggie and Cheri Hamilton, moved the family to Vallejo. Always a very outgoing and active child, Hamilton became involved in sports at an early age. By age nine, she was the state champion in Judo. She has also been on a variety of basketball teams throughout the years and is well-known as the "left hand shooter." By age thirteen, she had come out to family and friends as a proud lesbian.
Hamilton is currently finishing her junior year in high school in Vallejo. During her sophomore year, she was a target of anti-gay harassment and discrimination from teachers and staff at her school. For several months, Hamilton and her mother tried to get the school district to intervene, but the harassment did not stop.
Finally, daughter and mother contacted the ACLU of Northern California, who worked out a settlement with the Vallejo City Unified School District to combat anti-gay harassment and discrimination at all of the district's schools. It took Hamilton's voice to bring her school district in line with state and federal law. The district is now required to hold mandatory training sessions for teachers, staff, and students about how to identify anti-gay harassment and discrimination, why it's harmful, and how to prevent it.
Hamilton has been a guest speaker at a local college to help educate the community about LGBTQ issues. Furthermore, through her poetry and strong will, she has empowered other teens facing similar concerns as her, and has become a mentor to other students at her high school. She dreams of becoming a motivational speaker and LGBTQ activist, and wants to encourage teens to take pride in being themselves. Hamilton will be speaking at the San Francisco Gay Pride Parade this year.
Stuart Gaffney and John Lewis
Marriage Equality USA
Stuart Gaffney and John Lewis have been two of the leaders of the Freedom to Marry movement for the last five and a half years. Together as a couple for twenty two years, they were two of the plaintiffs in the historic 2008 lawsuit that held that California's ban on same-sex marriage violated the state constitution. On June 17, 2008, they married at San Francisco City Hall, surrounded by friends and family.
For the last five years, Lewis and Gaffney have been community leaders of Marriage Equality USA, a national grassroots organization, and of API Equality, a coalition focusing on outreach and education for the Asian American community. In addition, Gaffney and Lewis have worked tirelessly to educate the public about the importance of marriage equality to the everyday lives and personal dignity of LGBTI people. They have appeared in innumerable local, national, and international media outlets, spoken at many community and academic forums and events, and donated countless hours to community organizing, research and strategy, and direct person-to-person outreach.
Gaffney is also a prolific short film and videomaker. His works focus on queer and Asian American identity and the changing landscape of HIV/AIDS since the early days of the epidemic. They have shown at over one hundred festivals and venues nationally and internationally.
Gaffney currently works at the UCSF Center for AIDS Prevention Studies, and Lewis is a lawyer. In the 1980s, they participated in direct action for HIV/AIDS funding and treatment, and Lewis successfully litigated some of the early California HIV/AIDS discrimination cases.

I make starters in 2000mL flasks. I feel it works well but have read/heard that its almost impossible to 'overpitch' and even with the starter I'm making from White Labs or Wyeast I might be getting to 100 - 150 billion cells. For Ales this could be double and even more for lagers. I know I could decant some of the wort in the flask and add more to give the yeast more fuel to step up, but in a 2000mL flask I don't think I can give it enough for the amount of yeast I have. So here is my question... Any reason I couldn't make my starter and then after 1-2 days, decant most of the wort, pour into my carboy and give it a larger concentration of wort to continue stepping up. Then on brew day, just siphon off most of the liquid from the starter in my carboy and rack my beer right in on top of the yeast slurry left behind? Thoughts?

I posted a very similar post a few days ago ('yeast starter in primary?'). I want to hear why we are always told to make our starters in a flask/ growler instead of just making our 2-4 liter/quart starters in the sanitized primary and throwing our cooled wort on top of it. One dude, WBC, said that he does it all the time and it goes w/o a hitch. I'm going for it on my next batch.
You can definitely make a starter in your primary (especially if it is a glass carboy). The only issue is that you can't easily crash cool and decant the beer off the yeast like you can with a flask/jug. I am curious how big the beer is that you are making? A 2L simple starter (i.e. no oxygenation, no stirring) will easily produce ideal pitching rates up to a 1.056 beer. I wouldn't even hesitate to use that volume in a 1.070 beer, if it were well oxygenated and the yeast was fresh.

Buy if you will be staying a few years. Job transfers, deployments and schooling can affect how long you stay in an area. The transaction costs of buying and selling a home can be more of a factor in profitability over a shorter term; you could lose money on the deal. This is less of a factor in a rapidly appreciating market. Selling for a profit in less than two years could subject you to capital gains taxes. If you will not be staying in the home for a few years, you may be better off renting. Generally, if you pay 35 percent less in rent than owning â including mortgage, property taxes and homeowner fees â you are better off renting. Clean up your credit. Most of us need a mortgage loan to buy a house, so a clean credit history is important. Pull a free credit report, check the facts, and fix any problems. Errors do happen. Determine what you can afford. Income, debts and expenses determine what you can afford. There are online calculators that can help. Generally, you should be looking at housing that is approximately two to three times your gross annual salary. Monthly home payments should not exceed 35 percent of your gross monthly income. Get pre-approved. A pre-approval letter strengthens your offer or bargaining position when you do find the right house. Find a good mortgage lender; you will be paying on this loan for fifteen, thirty or even forty years. Use professionals. An exclusive buyers agent will have your specific interests at heart, will have up-to-date knowledge of your neighborhood and market, and can assist with offer strategies. The internet is fine for information on listings and available properties, but can be overwhelming. The experience of an agent could save you time and gas, and possibly thousands of dollars: sending you only the listings that meet your parameters, listings that may not have hit the market yet, and they can spot overpriced listings and active short contingent listings that are under contract. Find the neighborhood that you want. Look for Advertisement Tailor your offer to local market conditions. You (or your agent) need to do homework on the sales trends in the neighborhood in the last 3-6 months and make your offer accordingly. If homes are selling five per cent below asking price with 60-day escrow periods, you may want offer 8-10 percent less with a comparable or better escrow period. Make sure the purchase agreement has appropriate contingencies. Obtaining a mortgage, home inspection repairs, walk-through inspection and a walk through inspection before closing are all repairs A 20 percent down payment is normal, but less is still possible. The more you can put down, the less you will have to finance. However, there are still a number of low-interest mortgages â Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA â available for those with less of a down payment. If you qualify, you may pay as little as 3% upfront. Shopping around will pay off. With a down payment less than 20 percent, you will probably have to pay PMI â private mortgage insurance that protects the bank if you dont make payments â which adds 0.5% of the total loan amount to your mortgage payment. In addition to the down payment, youll need enough funds to cover fees and closing costs: appraisal, attorney, inspector, title search, etc. These can easily add up to $10,000 or more. Pay points to buy down your interest rate. You can pay additional points at closing in exchange for a lower interest rate over the life of the loan. The longer you keep the loan, the better your savings. Hire a good home inspector. Be sure to be present during the inspection; this is a good time to learn about the houses overall condition, internal systems, construction materials and potential problem areas. Secure a homeowners insurance policy. Most lenders will require this. 0 comments Be the first to share your opinion on this article!

I am officially all messed up from the time change. I keep wondering if it really did happen and what I'll doif I get confused about it.
The other thing is my watch, which I don't change for daylight savings. I got it around 2 months before the clocks turned forwards, and it was 2 min. slow anyway, so I always had to add 1hr. 2min. to my watch to get the right time. I didn't know how to change it, but then I got so used to adding 1hr 2min I now do it automatically on every digital clock I see. (My watch is digital)It was also a great conversation starter, well, I could use it whenever people asked me what time it was and then I might have something to say other than the time, even if they thought I was a lunatic (actually, someone did say that) for keeping it wrong. Anyway, now I have to get used to only adding 2 minutes, which is just so boring. Also now it really seems likethe watch is wrong. Before I always said, when another clock argued with my watch-math, "After you add an hour and 2 minutes, my watch is always right!" But only with 2 minutes? Yeah, not as interesting.

We wanted to make sure every last detail was fine tuned and scrutinized before finally releasing the United Dinero forks. By utilizing investment casting technology we were able to the conventional dropout position and move these into the centre of the legs. By using a gradual radius where the dropout meets the leg, it thickens at the base, creating a vastly stronger dropout than on a regular welded one. By curving the very bottom of the leg we have prevented any catching when getting all locked in with front peg grinds.
The neat embossed logo is there to add a nice finishing touch. To increase tyre clearance these forks have a tighter radius on the legs than traditionally found, and it is all connected by a completely overhauled steerer tube. What you end up with is a clean and simple looking street tough fork, with no welds for pegs to sit on and crack, all weighing in at just 2.02 lbs / 920 gm. Made from full post weld heat treated seamless 4130 cromo, and put through their paces by our team.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"As stated by others...there are a few little rust-like splotches on the cards. At first I was surprised and concerned, but then I realized it was intended to make the card look more rustic and antiqued. You can't really see them in the preview, because they are subtle and are not intrusive to the design. It goes along with the casual feel of the invite."
"Such a cute invitation. Gives you lots of room to share info about the couple and the wedding details. WPD was so quick and accommodating with requests and shipping."
"This invite is everything I wanted for my big day, the colors (coral/turquoise) are great, the quality is amazing and the designers were really helpful. I had a great experience with WPD and would recommend their work to everyone."
"We loved these cards and were very excited to order them. We ordered the brown, green, blue ones and they were absolutely perfect. Customer service was wonderful to talk to and we got our invites a week sooner than the email had said. Overall, I love the finished product and would definitely tell anyone about this site."
"We changed some of the words "The Big Day. Nuff Said" changed to I Do. Me Too. And we had a bright green and pink to match in. I probably would have liked a richer paper but didn't really worry me when I was ordering. Very happy!"

Nokia launches £120 smartphone
Mobile phone giants Nokia have made a move for emerging markets with the launch of a £120 smartphone.
The Finnish company announced the Lumia 520 alongside three other devices, including a £13 mobile phone, at Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, Spain.
The smartphone, which operates with Windows 8, could be perfect for colder countries with its super-sensitive touch-screen technology, meaning it can be used while wearing gloves.
But with experts predicting a big year for cheap smartphones as developers try to make inroads into the developing world, the Lumia 520 could be seen in India or Africa more than Scandinavia.
The phone also comes with a 5-megapixel camera and access to the music streaming service Nokia Music.
Alongside this, Nokia launched the 105 phone - a £13 standard mobile phone that is now the cheapest in the company's range. It comes complete with an FM radio and a torch, with Nokia explaining that it could be perfect for those living in areas where reliable electricity is in short supply.
It is also the end of an era as the 105's colour screen means that Nokia have made their last phone with a black-and-white display.
Those two phones were launched alongside the Lumia 720, which Nokia are pitching at "socialites", and the £56 "candybar"-style 301.
Nokia CEO Stephen Elop told a press conference at MWC: "Today we're introducing the world's most innovative portfolio of products.
"For Nokia the building blocks are in place and now we have to make sure that all of this capability, all of this beauty in design, everything that we have done in terms of great product-making is put into the hands of consumers and that's what we're focused on today."

Here's what to expect when you are 23 weeks pregnant with twins:
Fetal Development
By 23 weeks in the twin pregnancy each of your twins averages about 11.5″ (29 cm) and will have the following measurements:
Head circumference: 8.5″ (216 mm)
Abdominal Circumference: 7.5″ (191 mm)
Femur Bone Length (about from the waist to knee): 1.6″ (41 mm)
What to Expect
Typical weight gain for Mom at this point is between 1.25 to 2.0 pounds/week.
Total weight gain for the twin pregnancy so far will average between 23 to 34 pounds.
For more details on Mom's health, see:
Mom & Baby at 23 Weeks Pregnant
Week by week Twins calendar: pregnancy in weeks 20-24
Pictures and Video
Here's an ultrasound video of what you might see at 23 weeks pregnant with twins:
If Your Twins Were Born This Week
Your twins are still very early and ahead of the 24 week milestone that is the viability of life threshold. Most twins born at 23 weeks do not survive. Those that do have major medical complications.
What to Prepare This Week
Hopefully your twin nursery is taking shape. When Mom is 23 weeks pregnant with twins, consider your changing table options for twins. You'll be changing a lot of diapers so make sure this work space is practical.
Dad's Thoughts
By the time Mom reaches 23 weeks pregnant with twins, she will likely be having leg cramps. You need to be her personal massage therapist and help her get as comfortable as possible.
Still wondering how to prepare for your twins? I cover specific things you should know and prepare for in my Dad's Guide to Twins book. Learn more about the book here.

National Multiple Sclerosis Society
Imipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant used to treat mental depression. Its primary use in multiple sclerosis is to treat bladder symptoms, including urinary frequency and incontinence. Imipramine is also prescribed occasionally for the management of neurologic pain in MS.
To lessen stomach upset, take this medication with food, even for a daily bedtime dose, unless your physician has told you to take it on an empty stomach.
Imipramine adds to the effects of alcohol and other central nervous system depressants (e.g., antihistamines, sedatives, tranquilizers, prescription pain medications, seizure medications, muscle relaxants, sleeping medications), possibly causing drowsiness. Be sure that your physician knows if you are taking these or any other medications.
This medication causes dryness of the mouth. Because continuing dryness of the mouth can increase the risk of dental disease, alert your dentist if you are taking imipramine.
Imipramine may cause your skin to be more sensitive to sunlight than it is normally. Even brief exposure to sunlight may cause a skin rash, itching, redness or other discoloration of the skin, or severe sunburn. Stay out of the sun during the midday hours. Wear protective clothing and a sun block that has a skin protection factor (SPF) of at least 15.
This medication may affect blood sugar levels of diabetic individuals. If you notice a change in the results of your blood or urine sugar tests, check with your physician.
Do not stop taking imipramine without consulting your physician. The physician may want you to reduce the amount you are taking gradually in order to reduce the possibility of withdrawal symptoms such as headache, nausea, and/or an overall feeling of discomfort.
Studies of imipramine have not been done in pregnant women. There have been reports of newborns suffering from muscle spasms and heart, breathing, and urinary problems when their mothers had taken tricyclic antidepressants immediately before delivery. Studies in animals have indicated the possibility of unwanted effects in the fetus.
Imipramine passes into breast milk but has not been reported to have any effect on the nursing infant.
Side effects that may go away as your body adjusts to the medication and do not require medical attention unless they continue for more than two weeks or are bothersome: dizziness; drowsiness*; headache; decreased sexual ability*; increased appetite; nausea; unusual tiredness or weakness*; unpleasant taste; diarrhea; heartburn; increased sweating; vomiting. Uncommon side effects that should be reported to your physician as soon as possible: blurred vision*; confusion or delirium; constipation*; difficulty speaking or swallowing; eye pain*; fainting; fast or irregular heartbeat; hallucinations; loss of balance control*; nervousness or restlessness; problems urinating*; shakiness or trembling; stiffness of arms and legs*.
Rare side effects that should be reported to your physician as soon as possible: anxiety; breast enlargement in males and females; hair loss; inappropriate secretion of milk in females; increased sensitivity to sunlight; irritability; muscle twitching; red or brownish spots on the skin; buzzing or other unexplained sounds in the ears; skin rash; itching; sore throat and fever; swelling of face and tongue; weakness*; yellow skin.
Symptoms of acute overdose: confusion; convulsions; severe drowsiness*; enlarged pupils; unusual heartbeat; fever; hallucinations; restlessness and agitation; shortness of breath; unusual tiredness or weakness*; vomiting.
* Since it may be difficult to distinguish between certain common symptoms of MS and some side effects of imipramine, be sure to consult your health care professional if an abrupt change of this type occurs.

As a staple of the products we sell, our wholesale polo shirts are available in a wide range of colors, knits, fabrics and styles that are sure to suit anyone's tastes. Characterized by their "T" shape and placket with two or three buttons, this category has come a long way since its humble beginnings. Polo shirts, also commonly called sport shirts, golf or tennis shirts have their origins in a shirt that Rene Lacoste first created and wore at the U.S. Open in 1926. Seeking to be more comfortable than the available styles of the time allowed, he created an entire category of apparel that is one of the most popular and important in the apparel industry today. When buying polo shirts at wholesale, there are many important things to consider such as price, brand and style. We carry more than 100 different polo shirts for men, women and youth. Among our most popular is the well-priced silk touch K500 polo by Port Authority. If you are looking for a more basic shirt try something from Hanes, Jerzees or Gildan. If the highest quality and style is what you are after and you have a little higher budget consider polo shirts from Nike or Ogio. And just like our other products, you can buy a single item or get stocked up by ordering a full pallet; shop to suit your personal needs or to outfit your entire staff or team. Plus, the more you buy, the more you save - as your total purchase price increase, so does your discount. What's more, there are no order minimums nor do we require business accounts or licenses to place an order. We promptly process and ship every order, so your requested items should arrive on your doorstep in just a few short days. To begin your search for wholesale polo shirts use the link above, the search feature or contact customer service by phone or email.

I apologize in advance for being a complete noob to the forum, Mac, as well as Canon cameras.
I was wondering if anyone does their editing with an iMac? I just bought a new one for school and am unsure how well it would do for some recreational film editing. I have been using Windows for the last few years, mostly for photography and design.
Film editing is somewhat foreign to me, I have a Canon Vixia HV 40 that I have been using mostly for home movies, road trips, ect. But I am planning on venturing into some light filmmaking for beginners. Which is something I have always wanted to do. Blah, blah, blah, anyways, how are iMacs for editing?
Also, having trouble connecting my camera. I have read somewhere that I need a firewire. If so, what kind of firewire do I need?
Thanks for reading, I look forward to hearing a response.

Area within which goods may be landed, handled, and re-exported freely. The purpose is to remove obstacles to trade and to permit quick turnaround of ships and planes. Only when the goods are moved to consumers within the country in which the zone is located do they become subject to tariffs and customs regulation. Free-trade zones are found around major seaports, international airports, and national frontiers; there are more than 200 such zones in the U.S. alone.

Policy in which a government does not discriminate against imports or interfere with exports. A free-trade policy does not necessarily imply that the government abandons all control and taxation of imports and exports, but rather that it refrains from actions specifically designed to hinder international trade, such as tariff barriers, currency restrictions, and import quotas. The theoretical case for free trade is based on Adam Smith's argument that the division of labour among countries leads to specialization, greater efficiency, and higher aggregate production. The way to foster such a division of labour, Smith believed, is to allow nations to make and sell whatever products can compete successfully in an international market.

Trade pact signed by Canada, the U.S., and Mexico in 1992, which took effect in 1994. Inspired by the success of the European Community in reducing trade barriers among its members, NAFTA created the world's largest free-trade area. It basically extended to Mexico the provisions of a 1988 Canada-U.S. free-trade agreement, calling for elimination of all trade barriers over a 15-year period, granting U.S. and Canadian companies access to certain Mexican markets, and incorporating agreements on labour and the environment.

International organization whose purpose is to remove barriers to trade in industrial goods among its members. The EFTA's current members are Iceland, Liechteinstein, Norway, and Switzerland. It was formed in 1960 by Austria, Denmark, Norway, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, and Britain as an alternative to the European Economic Community (EEC). Some of those countries later left the EFTA and joined the EEC. In the 1990s Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway joined the European Economic Area, which also included all members of the European Union. Each country in the EFTA maintains its own commercial policy toward countries outside the group.

Etan Patz: His disappearance started the era of parent anxiety
(Read article summary)Etan Patz disappeared in 1979 and so did a nation's innocence. He vanished in broad daylight in Manhattan, sparking an era of parent anxiety – Amber alerts, milk carton photos – and sheltered American children.
New York
They never knew his name or saw that angelic-looking face. But their parents would never forget it.
For some, their caution was simply a result of what they read in news reports. Others, including Jim Stratton, had an immediate and very personal reason to be afraid.
"It sent a chill through everybody," said Mr. Stratton, whose son was in the same neighborhood play group as Etan Patz, the 6-year-old who never boarded his school bus on May 25, 1979. "You could not leave your child for a minute. Anywhere. It was like a dark cloud had come over the neighborhood."
Before Etan disappeared, the notion that a child could be abducted right off the street, in broad daylight, was not familiar. Children roamed their hometowns freely, unencumbered by fear. They could walk to school and the bus stop and just about anywhere they pleased all by themselves. That all changed after Etan set off for school in his favorite pilot's cap and corduroy jacket and did not return.
A new age of paranoia had grabbed hold of the national psyche. And so many years later, that sense of fear has yet to fully release its grip.
"In many ways, it was the end of an era of innocence," said Ernie Allen, president of the National Center for Exploited and Missing Children. "And parents suddenly became much more protective and much more hovering over their children."

The Big Picture: Making History Together
On August 28, grocery store workers, our families, our neighbors and customers will all be standing together for a fair contract. As part of the effort to get our employers to settle a fair contract, we are holding 38 Informational Pickets across Snohomish, Pierce, Kitsap and King Counties. If this round of action does not yet move the CEOs of the big national grocery chains to reach a fair compromise, grocery store workers will press on.
History teaches us that standing together with persistence and in the pursuit of justice can make things better. It was fifty years ago, on August 28, 1963, that hundreds of thousands marched in Washington DC for Jobs and Justice. That march was where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. gave his "I have a dream" speech. The people that day came from many walks of life and from many different communities. The same is true for grocery store workers here in the Puget Sound. We all come from different walks of life and from different communities too.
While our diversity makes us strong, it is also our sense of fairness and willingness to stand up for one another that binds us together in a common struggle. And the struggle to achieve a fair contract – whether it is for members at MultiCare, Providence, Group Health, Harrison or many other health care facilities or the 30,000 grocery store workers across the region from UFCW 21, UFCW 367 and Teamsters 38 – is a struggle that we can win.
"It was fifty years ago, on August 28, 1963 that hundreds of thousands marched in Washington DC for Jobs and Justice." |
Time and again over the last several years we have shown that when we stand together against attempts to undermine our health care coverage, cut our pay, and limit our rights at work, that we can push back and hold our own. We don't win everything, but the companies that we work for don't get everything they want either.
A belief in each other, a willingness to stand up and face our fears and work together is what allows us to overcome our fears and take action to change things for the better. The struggle for racial equality is not yet won. But significant progress has been made since that August day back in 1963.
Likewise, we made progress back in 2010 when the CEOs of the big national grocery store chains came after our health care, came after our pension, came after our pay, refused us paid sick days, and tried to split our ranks. We stuck together, and in the toughest economy since the Great Depression, members voted by 94% to authorize a strike and forced a final compromise, that while far from perfect, was something members felt proud of and passed overwhelmingly.
By standing together again, and with all the wonderful support of fellow union members, our families, our neighbors and our customers, we can achieve fairness again.
The Inside Story:
Health Care Advisory Committee –Growing Our Union
In July of 2013 our union had its third Health Care Advisory Board meeting. Our discussions were centered around the rapid consolidation of many of our healthcare facilities with Peace Health, Franciscans and Providence. The changing face of our industry means that we have to be clearer than ever in our direction as leaders in providing quality care to our community.
With 16,000 health care members, our Health Care Advisory Board is led by key Stewards from our health care units including our former USNU 141 RN members that merged with UFCW 21 last summer and members from our recently organized units at Skagit Regional Medical Center and Providence Regional Medical Center Everett.
Through the Advisory Board we have focused on a handful of strategic goals (listed below) for all health care members in order to strengthen our contracts and ensure that while at work we can focus on our number one priority which is providing the highest quality of patient care to our communities.
- Strategically coordinating all our contract campaigns so as we negotiate, we negotiate together from a position of strength.
- Winning Union Shop language in all contracts so that we no longer have so many workplaces where workers are not members of the union. When we have all employees in all job classes represented by unions, we can build more power and bargain stronger contracts.
- Political check off – so that we can raise extra funds to work on lobbying issues of importance like our patient safety package.
- A fair process for workers to join the union without interference or intimidation from the employer
- More Steward rights – Stewards are the back bone of the union and will be key to allowing our union to grow and connect with members in the workplace – especially in health care.
- Advancing quality patient care– winning rest and meal breaks, improving staffing, enhancing safe workplaces, reducing bullying in the workplace. These are all policies where we can be primary advocates for quality patient care – after all what is good for health care workers is good for patients.
Members Stand Up for Their Rights...
UFCW 21 Awards Over $40,000 in ScholarshipsOur scholarships were presented at the awards ceremony in June. All totaled, we provided awards for over $40,000 to 16 winners this year (8 shown here with their certificates). |
The Benefits of Being UFCW 21 MembersYour union (UFCW 21) is the largest private sector union in the state of Washington, with 43,000 workers in grocery stores and retail, health care, and other service sector and industrial jobs. Our collective voice is what gives workers the power to bargain for better wages, benefits, and working conditions. Wages: On average, union members earn about 20% more in wages than non-union workers. Health Benefits: Union members are more likely to receive quality, affordable health benefits from their employers. Retirement Security: Union members are far more likely than other workers to have a guaranteed pension. Other Benefits on the Job: Union members also have more vacation days, more paid leave, and greater job security. A Voice at Work: Union members get to negotiate with management—as equals—over wages, benefits, and other issues. Representation: As a union member, you have the right to union representation during an investigation that could lead to discipline. Fair Treatment: The "just cause" provision in your union contract means that management must apply discipline in a fair and consistent manner. Your Contract: Your wages, benefits, and working conditions are spelled out in writing in a legally-binding union contract, which is bargained for and voted on by union members. |
Going Green Helps Save $ More and more members are getting updated information from our union via email. Over the last five years we have added nearly 20,000 email address – allowing members to get up-to-date information quickly during contract negotiations, political campaigns, and other important times. Our new approach to communications reduced postage and printing costs while saving over 4 million sheets of paper. Be part of the solution, make sure your email address is up to date. |
30,000 Grocery Store Workers Stand Together. This year, UFCW 21, UFCW 367 and Teamsters 38 members who work in grocery stores throughout Puget Sound are all in contract negotiations together. This cover photo was from one of twelve informational pickets in July. Thirty-eight additional pickets are happening on August 28. Like us on Facebook. |

Despite these changes, the community's strong institutions and committed members have given Cleveland Jews an image for decades as a "model community," one that leads the pack in fundraising and in providing services. As the community geared up for its "Super Sunday" fundraising drive, scheduled for October 21, officials noted that fundraising numbers were starting to grow again after being hit hard by the 2008 financial crash. Some communal officials said they could return to pre-recession levels this year.
Geographically, the community's center has moved to the East Side suburbs from the neighborhoods known as the Northern Heights. Beachwood is among those growing Jewish neighborhoods with a state of the art Jewish community center, just opened with an $18 million investment and a variety of synagogues of all denominations.
But older Jewish strongholds are languishing. "There are so many houses around us that just can't be sold," Rina Hazony of University Heights said. A resident of the Cleveland area since 1964, Hazony is a strong Romney supporter. She is disappointed with the shape of the economy, but states that her greatest concern is Israel. "For me, Israel is the first issue, but the economy is also a big issue," Hazony said, explaining that Romney would be better on both issues. She finds herself at times representing the minority view when talking politics to other members of the Jewish community. "A lot of my friends — for themto vote Republican is like for an Orthodox man to eat pork."
Rick Lichaw, 63, is among those who see no reason to reconsider his Democratic vote. "Israel is not a factor," the retired plumbing supplies businessman said as he exercised at the JCC's gym, where community members meet to shmooze while working out. "Either president is going to be 100% behind Israel," he explained. Lichaw was not personally affected by the economic downturn, and feels that things have improved since Obama took office. In the next four years, he'd like to see more government investment in infrastructure and an increase in taxes for wealthy Americans.
But for die-hard partisans, Israel is not only an issue, it is also a rallying call. Jewish Republicans in Ohio have zoomed in on the perceived tensions between President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and continually stressed this issue in reaching out to Jewish voters.
"He angered Netanyahu but has no problem reaching out to Arabs," Tybee Zuckerman said. "If Israel goes, we go."
Zuckerman said she voted for Obama in 2008, but has since devoted much of her time to writing and advocating against his re-election. She stopped her subscription to "mainstream media" publications (including the Forward), and receives information from Internet websites about Obama and what she views as the threat of a Muslim takeover of America.
Helping to energize Ohio Republicans is the local U.S. Senate race in which the state's treasurer, Josh Mandel, is running strong against incumbent Sherrod Brown. Mandel has little support within the Jewish community, because of his conservative views on social and fiscal issues, but his campaign, with the national attention and massive cash flow it has been receiving, has helped Republican Ohio Jews get activists out for rallies and phone banking.
