The company was listed among the top franchises for veterans.
WACO, Texas - The World Franchising Network has compiled and published its fifth annual list of the "50 Top Franchises for Veterans." The results were featured in the June 20, 2014 issue of USA TODAY in the Franchising Today section.
The World Franchising Network selected 50 franchisors from over 300 companies requesting evaluation for inclusion in the article. Among these were four Dwyer Group brands, Mr. Appliance, Mr. Rooter, Aire Serv and The Grounds Guys.
There was no cost to participate in the survey. Each participating franchisor was required to submit a completed questionnaire. The questionnaire noted both the absolute number of and the percentage of the total number of operating units owned or managed by veterans.
"The steady increase in veteran representation within the overall franchising community over the last several years has been extremely encouraging," Rob Bond, founder of the World Franchising Network, said. "It certainly is clear evidence of the intrinsic values, invaluable experience learned through life's lessons, and the exceptional work ethic of our military veterans. Hopefully, this trend will continue in the years to come so that these fine young men and women can test their skills in franchising."
The Dwyer Group is committed to helping veterans achieve their dreams and reach their goals by being in business for themselves. The Veterans Transition Franchise Initiative (VetFran Program) was established by Don Dwyer, Sr., founder of The Dwyer Group, soon after the Gulf War ended in 1991. The Vet Fran program is a voluntary effort of International Franchise Association (IFA) member companies to encourage franchise ownership by offering business franchise opportunities and financial incentives to honorably discharged veterans.

Hi Heather,
We had a wonderful time in the Galapagos so thank you so much
for all of your assistance in organising it! Maja was a fantastic
guide - we never felt rushed and really felt very happy with every
visit we did.
Thanks once again - we look forward to recommending your
services to other would be Ecuadorian adventurers!
Kind regards,
Beth Keddie
If you are like most of the 110,000 visitors
who will come to the Galapagos in the next 12 months, you are
probably going to visit these islands just once in your
lifetime. You've probably been keeping your eyes open and
have noticed several ads in travel magazines and in the travel
section of your newspaper. A search on the internet reveals
dozens of operators offering cruises to Galapagos. Doing a
little research, you'll find that there are over 80 ships of all
shapes, sizes and qualities that ply the Galapagos waters, that
each seems to follow a different itinerary, for different lengths
of time, visiting different islands, and that you must be
accompanied by one of over 350 Park certified naturalist guides at
all times. Further research reveals a wide range of prices,
from as low as US$1900 to as high as US$6,500 for an 8 day cruise,
while some include the flight from the continent and/or the Park
entrance fee, others don't. And this is only the
beginning… By the looks of things, selecting a
cruise in the Galapagos without in-depth knowledge of the ins and
outs of the industry is very much a gamble.
We would like to put our knowledge and
experience at your service in helping you select the cruise that
best fits your needs. Unlike so many other tour operators,
CNH Tours focuses exclusively on Galapagos, and we actually lived
on the islands for four years, having worked with the
Charles Darwin Research Station and the Galapagos National Park
Service. Over the years, we've helped more than 1,000 people
arrange the best cruise according to their particular needs,
ensuring that they steered clear of ships with questionable
reputations, and directing them towards itineraries best meeting
their particular expectations (e.g birders, water lovers, physical
activity enthusiasts, younger crowds, family friendly cruises,
generalists). We put our personal
knowledge to your service.
Go ahead and contact us for advice. Our
email is: email@example.com Go ahead and
ask us a dozen, or several dozens of questions. We'll be
happy to answer, to provide insights, to tell you about ships,
guides, itineraries, the pros and cons of different seasons in
Galapagos, prices… And in the end, you are free to book your
cruise with whomever you please.

How do the two powerhouses from Samsung and LG compare? We find out in this quick look at the Samsung Galaxy S5 vs LG G2!
Samsung Galaxy S5 vs LG G2 quick look
by Joshua Vergara 1 year ago
How do the two powerhouses from Samsung and LG compare? We find out in this quick look at the Samsung Galaxy S5 vs LG G2!
The LG G2 update to Android 4.4 KitKat first came available last week for those willing to download it using LG's PC utility. Now the OTA update has begun rolling out as well.
KitKat upgrade love is coming to a couple more T-Mobile devices. The LG G2 is ready to update now and Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is expected as soon as Monday.
AT&T has some unexpected good news for LG G2 owners, the phone's update to Android 4.4 KitKat is now rolling out to users.
The carrier announced the... update roll out on its official blog, catching us by surprise. Unlike HTC, LG hasn't spent a lot of time telling its users when the KitKat update will come to their phones. It's hard to complain...
At MWC, we were curious to see the G Pro 2 and its OIS Plus in action, to see if there's some substance behind LG's claims. Because we only had limited time with the device, we put it through a quick comparison with its sibling, LG G2, which also comes with a 13MP camera with optical image stabilization.
The LG G2 mini is official, at least in the Netherlands, so we're able to give you the full rundown on its specs and features. The "mini" version of the LG G2 was first rumored in December, and LG teased it last week for an MWC unveiling.
Android 4.2.2 has begun to roll out to the LG G2 in Korea and is expected to roll out to G2 phones around the globe by the end of the first quarter.
We take a look at some of the best LG G2 cases, featuring various levels of protection and price points.
A pair of leaked images claiming to be of LG's new G Pro 2, which is scheduled for launch next month, have been leaked on the Korean forum, DC Inside. The unconfirmed photos reveal some similarities to features from LG's various lineups, most notably are the rear mounted buttons, previously seen on the G2.
LG announced today results for Q4 2013, and they are a mixed bag. Good smartphone sales could not help LG obtain a profit from its mobile business in the last quarter of 2013.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
27 Oct 2012 02:08 GMT | Business & Economy, US & Canada, China, India, United States
The US economy grew at a slightly faster two per cent annualised rate from July through September, buoyed by more spending by consumers and the federal government.
Growth accelerated from the 1.3 per cent rate of the April-June quarter, the Commerce Department said on Friday.
The report is the final snapshot of economic growth before Americans choose a president on November 6. The pickup in growth could lend weight to President Barack Obama's message that the economy is improving slowly but surely.
Meanwhile Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney adopted the mantle of change on Friday in an economic speech in which he vowed to generate stronger job growth.
"This election is a choice between the status quo - going forward with the same policies of the last four years - or instead, choosing real change, change that offers promise," he said.
Growth remains too weak to rapidly boost hiring. And the 1.74 per cent average growth rate for the first nine months of 2012 trails last year's 1.8 per cent growth, a point that Romney has emphasised.
The economy grew faster last quarter because consumer spending rose at a two per cent annual rate, up from a 1.5 per cent rate in the second quarter.
Spending on home-building and renovations increased at an annual rate of more than 14 per cent.
And federal spending surged, mainly because of the sharpest increase in defence spending in more than three years.
Political implications
However, growth was held back by the first drop in exports in more than three years and flat business investment in equipment and software.
Al Jazeera's Alan Fisher, reporting from Washington, said the Republicans had yet to comment on the new figures but that their candidate would likely say: "'If you elect me, Mitt Romney, I will produce better GDP figures.'"
Live Box 20121816112138306
"If you look at opinion polls in the last week or so, [Romney] is moving forward in the national polls, but in key swing states, Barack Obama still holds a narrow lead," our correspondent said.
"Barack Obama is doing better on the economic news than perhaps he had originally hoped."
The latest Reuters/Ipsos daily tracking poll had Obama leading Romney among likely voters by 47 per cent to 46 per cent.
The economy was also slowed by the severe drought last summer in the Midwest. The drought cut agriculture stockpiles and reduced growth by nearly a half-point.
The government's report covers gross domestic product, which measures the nation's total output of goods and services - from restaurant meals and haircuts to airplanes, appliances and highways.
It was the government's first of three estimates of growth for the July-September quarter. And it sketched a picture that has been familiar all year - the economy is growing at a tepid rate, slowed by high unemployment and corporate anxiety over an unresolved budget crisis and a slowing global economy.
While growth remains modest, the factors supporting the economy have changed. Exports and business investment drove growth for most of the recovery, but are now fading. Meanwhile, consumer spending has ticked up.
And housing is adding to growth after a six-year slump.
Businesses remain cautious
Consumer spending drives nearly 70 per cent of economic activity. But businesses have grown more cautious since spring, in part because customer demand has remained modest while exports have declined.
Many companies worry that their overseas sales could dampen further if recession spreads throughout Europe and growth slows further in China, India and other developing countries.
Businesses also fear the tax increases and government spending cuts that will kick in next year if Congress does not reach a budget deal.
Since the recovery from the Great Recession began in June 2009, the US economy has grown at the slowest rate of any recovery in the post-World War II period. Economists say growth could remain sluggish through the first half of 2013.

Dominion... Level limits?
Since the new game mode is coming out soon, do you think there will be a level limit for summoners to play this mode?
Something like Ranked game, maybe this Dominion is only for certain levels and above?
Aren't we ALL excited? :D
You know, rely on the matchmaking that works so well for the other modes.
That doesnt really answer anything... but cool :)
I doubt it..... I expect you will be able to play it from level 1 but with a reduced amount of summoner spells.
I am excited for it... It looks like a lot of fun.
They said in one of the videos that they wanted something for new and old summoners alike to enjoy, so no.
Yea I thought of it, but if new comers of LoL start straight at Dominion, they'll lose the concept of the REAL LoL
I believe there's a post somewhere or an article that says there are no summoner level restrictions!
Mehhh no officials, UPDATES ARE SO BORING!
This is BUMPTIFYING!

We have a critical need for CASA volunteers in the Lakes Region
To The Daily Sun,
A baby is born addicted to drugs. She survives the painful withdrawal process and goes home with Mom.
Three months later she is hospitalized and her Mom is charged with neglect.
An 8-year-old girl is very quiet and is a good student. She loves to read and do crafts. She is in foster care.
A 14-year-old boy is very outgoing and loves the Red Sox. He lived with his Dad, but his Dad is now incarcerated. There were no family connections that could provide him an appropriate home or foster families available so he is living in a group home.
Would you be interested in volunteering to be a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) and getting to know a child like this? Our volunteers receive a comprehensive training and then are asked if they would like to advocate for a child who has been the victim of abuse and/or neglect. Our volunteers meet with the child at least once a month. Volunteers also talk with various adults in the child's life. With support from the staff at CASA, our volunteers stand up and represent the best interest of the child in court proceedings. We ask that our advocates volunteer with the child for the time they are involved with court. While that time varies widely, the average time is two years.
We need more CASAs statewide, but have a critical need in the Lakes Region. We start a new training in May. Applications are available at www.casanh.org

2002 Bush tax cuts reduced revenues by $1.8 trillion over 7 years
To The Daily Sun,
I would like to make comments referring to letters to editor written on April 4 and 6, 2014. I don't think I have seen such hateful letters written in a week as this.
It is my opinion that Mr. Maloof, tired of seeing the President of the United states being referred to in such a matter in the past month and responded as I would when reading letters of hate, distortion and disrespect. The letter he wrote was honest, to the point easily verified.
A letter on Thursday stated his letter contained no evidence to back up his opinions, all truthful. To answer that "talking point" I will. The writer stated that 37 percent of white folks voted for the president, did not mention who the other 63 percent voted for. On Saturday another writer wrote, "droves of white people voted for Obama in 2008 and again in 2012. Which is it? I guess what number a drove is confusing.
In 2012 of the 10 poorest states, nine voted for Romney, New Mexico voted for Obama. Of the 10 richest states, nine voted for Obama, Alaska voted for Romney. Our state is seventh richest state in the union, unemployment dropped to 4.7 percent. I guess it's fair to blame that on the president also.
The point Mr. Maloof makes, and clearly stated, was the red states receive the most federal dollars. This one fact — and I repeat, fact — the right-wing party won't touch with a 10 foot pole. A writer on April 6th stated that president hated him his children and grandchildren. I can't imagine the president told him that. I think he meant to say that they will be saddled with the national debt as he often mentions.
If you live in a blue state, your tax dollar goes to Washington, red states take it home. That has nothing to do with the president. I can add here help for you is on the way. Read the Ryan budget.
The next "talking point" which is the easiest to prove wrong is, "When John Kennedy lowered tax rates and when George W. Bush did, in both cases revenues increased. Completely false. Google: Bush tax cuts 2002. Read Bush tax cuts reduced revenues by about $1.8 trillion between 2002-2009. Other points of interest, read "Bruce Bartlett Bush tax cut failure, three good reasons to let high-end Bush tax cuts disappear this year." Compare Kennedy, Reagan and Bush tax cuts, a good read.
In 2008 a looming recession prompted President Bush to sign a stimulus package. Google economic stimulus act 2008. I will be interested to see what the nitpickers write in a letter to the editor about this evidence. I now think the right should talk about their 2014 candidates, two recycled senators, a man from Alton running for governor who doesn't know whether he lives here or Maryland. The Democrats love this story, can't wait for the voting to begin.
I think it's time to talk about 2016 presidential candidates. Since President Obama, although elected twice isn't qualified, I can hardly wait to see the qualifications are for a eye doctor from Kentucky has, or a traffic director of New Jersey has.
I don't need talking points, facts only.
To close on a very happy note, a topic that was always on my mind was planes loaded with dead and seriously wounded military personnel landing in Dover Delaware. While sitting here half listing to Lou Dobbs on Fox News, he announced that no military personnel died in Afghanistan last month. God bless the troops and the president of the United States of America.

How many of that 7 million didn't have health insurance before
To The Daily Sun,
We are hearing in the news that Obamacare hit its objective of signing on 7-million people. And that is all we hear.
How many are under the Medicaid expansion? How many have made a payment and really are signed up? How many had insurance before and signed up for Obamacare and do not have the coverage that they had before?
But the real question is how many of the 7 million did not have insurance before? This was the whole purpose of Obamacare. . . wasn't it?
In New Hampshire, I think 20,000 people signed up for Obamacare. More than that had their insurance that they were happy with canceled. How many have had their insurance payments increased dramatically since the inception of Obamacare?
With all the billions we are paying for this new health coverage in the U.S., wouldn't it have been cheaper if we just spent the money and covered the people who did not have insurance and leave the rest of us 85 percent that were happy with our coverage alone?
And to think we now have the IRS involved in our health care.

What if Paul Ryan had asked young black me to 'take responsibility'?
To The Daily Sun,
George Maloof must have fallen into not just a puddle of Kool-Aid but a well, after reading his last pontifications from the academic towers. I do love reading Maloof... he provides my comic relief for the day. Let me say this, to get it out of my system. Your full of BS right up to the tip of your pointy cap, George. You wouldn't know what an individual, creative thought was if it bit you. All you know is whatever smoke the peer reviewed drones at the education, wasp nest blow.
When you're ready to MEANS TEST Medicare and Social Security, George, let's write Obama and demand it. I am all for it. I am calling your BLUFF... Just be aware doing so EXPLODES the DONKEY MYTH these programs were going to be paid for, IN FULL by the people who use them. WE can NOW IDENTIFY both as the INSOLVENT, WELFARE, BOONDOGGLES they always have been since the day they were born.
The quality of medical care in America is already on the slippery slope. Obamacare has just accelerated the down slide. When a person can not get into 15 of the 19 best cancer care hospitals in America because OBAMACARE STOPS THEM, the value of EVERY LIFE in America life just got DILUTED by Democrats. Are you ready George? We both SCREAM WELFARE every time someone gets a SS check or a health care bill paid by Sam. Come on George you opened the DEBATE with your usual demonizing style. Let's make these programs what they always were and are, WELFARE. Some poor stiff working and some Democrat collecting the fruits of that work.
You're concerned with the indignities suffered by Obama. Where were you SLEEPING during the Bush years. It was Bush's fault for eight years when he was in office and his fault the next four of Obama's term. Give it a brake George, your beginning to sound like a broken record of excuses. Face it, Obama has been totally in over his head with every economic matter. Worse, we now watch his foreign policy that instills feeling of the Cold War people thought were long dead. Obama's spineless and feckless handling of the Iran crisis, the Syrian crisis and Russian intervention have made us the laughing stock on the world stage. We can be sure our friends and allies wonder if we REALLY have their backs or is it what ever the POLLS SHOW that determines the action of the day for Obama. I am certain the Saudis and Israel are wondering. Obama's presidency is so bad he makes Jimmy Carter looks like he was from the Mensa society
Still stirring up racial discontent. Is that the ONLY way you see Democrats winning an election George? Democrats are going to get steamrolled In November. I am sure that scares the crap out of you, so lets stir the race pot. Is that what academics do? Create division and hate in Americas social fabric to further party gains. Right down there with the earth worms.
You mentioned Paul Ryan. Are you aware Barack Obama says many of the same things Ryan does. During a recent speech regarding "My brothers keeper", Obama's program to help black young adults he said this, "We are dealing with issues that run deep in our society, government can not play the only roll or primary role (in other words just keep handing out welfare). It is ultimately those young men who are out there to STEP UP and take RESPONSIBILITY for their own lives". I can assure you if RYAN spoke to young black men with the SAME WORDS as OBAMA, he would be labeled a racist, while Obama gets applause. What we have are idiots like George Maloof who seem to know racism when they hear it. . . it only depends the color of the person saying the words, even identical ones.

Forrester could appease 'starve the beast' types with safe 'no' vote
To The Daily Sun,
What a bumpy ride! The 4-cent state gasoline tax increase was passed, but with no help from my senator, Jeanie Forrester (N.H. Senate District 2). Her newsletter explaining why she was opposed was disingenuous at best. The increase doesn't provide enough, only $32 million, she says, for the Highway Fund to overcome its operating shortfall. Forrester opposed the original plan to increase New Hampshire's tax by 12 cents gradually over several years and then index it to inflation. (The tax had not been raised since 1991, when gasoline cost $1.14 per gallon.) So nothing is better than not enough?
Forrester voted against the $30 vehicle registration surcharge, then allowed it to "sunset," depleting the Transportation Department budget of $135 million. Highway funds were diverted by the Legislature to pay for deliberately underfunded agencies (e.g. Department of Safety, Judicial Branch, Department of Safety, etc.).
I do agree with Forrester that infrastructure funding levels should be studied and the raiding of the Highway Fund stopped. But her vote against the current 4-cent increase, when New Hampshire roads and bridges are in terrible shape, was unconscionable.
It was a safe vote — there were enough votes to pass it without her — to appease her "starve the beast" supporters.
Yet New Hampshire's economy, its tourism and business enterprises require safe roads and bridges as do her constituents. Deferred maintenance always costs more in the end, as we all know. Hit any potholes or frost heaves recently?
Sen. Forrester's contrary vote is just one example of the "penny wise, pound foolish" approach some folks tout as the New Hampshire advantage. Not I. New Hampshire doesn't have a spending problem but rather a revenue dilemma. District 2 needs a senator and Legislature willing to address it forthwith.

Like most Americans, I rarely get the doctor-recommended eight hours of sleep every night. Usually, I get too little sleep. Occasionally, I get too much. So I worried when I saw a new study that found that how much women sleep in middle age can affect their memory later in life. Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston evaluated the link between sleep duration and memory in more than 15,000 women age 70 and older who were stroke and …

dining room table pads storage
I have 4 table pads (2 for the regular dining room table, 2 for the leaves). They're supposed to be stored flat so that they don't warp. I did have them laying on 2 high shelves in my laundry room, but they were a pain to get to when I wanted them. Does anyone have a good idea for out of the way storage that's not inconvenient?
Put them in an underbed storage tote
Mine have been on edge behind the dining room drapes since 1980 (and through four residences!)...
no warpage yet.
Ditto Luann. Mine are on edge behing the china closet for 20 years, no warpage.
I'd think they'd be as likely to warp flat as on edge.
I have two DR table leaves that I slid under my bed. (I reasoned that the linens I stored under there could be folded into a different shape.)
I keep them in the original boxes, and so I put each table pad inside the box with its leaf.
Why is it these pads are not on the table all the time? If it's because they are for the leaves, why not store them with the leaves?
I have a bookcase in my dining room, there's a spot about 6 inches wide next to it near the corner of the room, in which I can stand up my table leaves and pads. Out of the way yet accessible. Without the leaves, my dining room table seats four. With the leaves in, there's room for ten. We've done just that, for Thanksgiving.
Actually, matt-holmes, that *is* a smart idea about adding a shelf to take up some of the extra-big gap above the items on a shelf. Lots of times those storage shelf sets come w/ 1 too few shelves.
I added a shelf to a set like this one (and you can see the gaps Matt-Holmes & I are talking about as well).
I bought that ClosetMaid-type of wire shelving from Home Depot, and suspended it from the holes in the shelving posts w/ a heavy-duty cable tie (and clipped off the excess)
I might not want to store them in the garage, bcs of dampness issues, but I have storage shelves other places that have those gaps.

Nuclear Fusion We can therefore envision joining small nuclei together to form larger nuclei and, in the process, converting mass into energy. This type of reaction, in which small nuclei are joined together to form larger ones, is called nuclear fusion. To illustrate the tremendous energies released in fusion reactions, consider the following set of reactions, which furnishes a large fraction of the sun's energy. 1 1H + 11H -> 1 2 H + +10 e + 00 H where e is a positive electron(called a positron) and v is a neutrino. The deuterium H reacts further. 2 1 H + 11 H -> 3 2 He and then 3 2 He + 32 He -> 4 2 He + 211 H To find the energy liberated in this process, we must find the mass loss. The starting mass is that of four protons, 4*1.007276 = 4.029104 u, while the final starting mass is that of the helium 4 nucleus, namely, 4.002604 - 2m = 4.001506u. Thus the mass loss is 0.0276u. This mass has an energy equivalent of (0.0276u) (931 MeV/u) = 25.7 MeV But in 1 kg of helium, there are NA /4 atoms. So the energy lost in the formation of 1 kg of helium is Energy = 1/4(6*1026)(25.7 MeV) = 3.86*1033 eV = 6.2*1014 J Principle, fusion is an extremely attractive energy source. Its by-product, 4He, is not a radioactive waste, but rather a very useful and rare element. The difficulty in obtaining a steady fusion reaction is basically that fusion can't occur unless the protons are within the range of the nuclear strong force, about 5*10 -15. At this range, their coulomb repulsion is enormous. Another way of stating this is that the electical potential energy at this distance is very large, on the order of 1MeV. This is approximately the kinetic energy protons must be given if they are to fuse before being repelied by the coulomb force. This energy is easily attainable by means of huge particle accelerators. We must make use of thermal collisions between protons in an extremely hot gas. The kinetic theory of gases tells us that the average translational kinetic energy of a particle in a gas whose temperature is 3/2kT. Setting this equal to 1 MeV, or 1.6*10 –13J, we have 3/2(1.38*10 -23J/k)T = 1.6*10 -13 J. Thus T = 7.6*10 9 K Our attempts at containment involve the fact that material at these very high temperatures is highly ionized, consisting of separate ions and electrons in a state called a plasma. Charged particles can be confined by strong magnetic fields, but at very high temperatures and pressure, instabilities quickly occur and ruin the containment.

"Go the Fuck to Sleep" is a faux children's book aimed towards adults released in June 2011. The book is about a parent who is exasperated because their children would not go to sleep. Since the leak of pirated copies in April 2011, the book has become a viral hit for its highly entertaining, expletive-ridden narrative.
Written by Adam Mansbach and illustrated by Ricardo Cortés, "Go the Fuck to Sleep"[1] was originally slated for release in late October 2011. However, a PDF copy of the book was leaked onto the web in April, possibly during exchanges of e-mails with a number of booksellers.
Following the author's first public appearance at a panel held in Philadelphia on April 23rd, the book began to generate buzz on Twitter, as well as a number of blogs like Boing Boing[2], and OutsideTheBeltway[3], as well as mainstream news outlets like New York Times[4] and Guardian[5]. Throughout the months of May and June, the book continued to trend as a discussion topic on various forums like Something Awful[6] and the news stories were picked up by social media aggregators like Reddit[7] and Digg[8].
On Amazon, pre-orders for "Go the Fuck to Sleep" entered the top 200 sellers list on April 24th, climbed to No. 2 by April 27th. On May 12th, pre-orders for "Go the Fuck to Sleep" sky-rocketed to the number one spot on Amazon's bestseller list. Due to its high demand in pre-orders, the book was fast-tracked for publication on June 14th, 2011.
Celebrity Narrations
On June 14th, 2010, a recording of Samuel L. Jackson reading the book was leaked online (shown below, left). That same day, stand-up comic and 30 Rock actor Judah Friedlander also read the book aloud during the book launch party held at the New York Public Library (shown below, right). In leading up to the date of release on June 14th, many of the pirated copies and audiobooks were removed offline.
You Have to Fucking Eat
On November 12th, 2014, Akashic Books published Adam Mansbach's second book "You Have to F****ng Eat,"[9] which similarly focuses on the difficulty of parents trying to get their children to regulate their eating habits.
That same day, an excerpt from audiobook adaptation of the story narrated by American actor Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) was uploaded to Audible's official YouTube channel[10] (shown below, left). Audible's audiobook version of the story is available for free download on its website.[12] On the next day, the UK distributor of the book CanonGate uploaded an extended version of another audiobook adaptation, narrated by British comedian Stephen Fry, to its YouTube channel[11] (shown below, right).
Search Interest

The current Android Auto band algorithm seems to just switch based on which freq. band has the highest signal (dBm) level even though a 2.4 GHz AP with a high signal level will often be slower than a 5 GHz AP with a lower signal level due to the high number of 2.4GHz devices completing for bandwidth.
A search for WiFi priority apps only seems to yield setting priority by SSID and an app that would allow setting priority by MAC address would be invaluable as I could then prioritize all the 5GHz APs. If the Wifi Auto band algorithm itself allowed a 10 dBm signal threshold advantage to the 5 GHz band before switching to 2.4 GHz band, real life WiFi performance would likely be overall higher.
Thanks, this is my first post on XDA.

Has our democracy been taken from us?
I'm a person who has always considered herself a rebel, even a radical, and I've always voted. I've been of the liberal Democrat persuasion all my adult life. (I'm 68.) I loved the sixties for the dramatic social change that was brought about by young people and activists. I was an active participant in the Feminist and Gay Rights movements in the '70s, and I moved on to Democratic Party politics. I lived in Houston, and learning politics in Texas is the way to experience what a rough sport that process can be. I left Texas in 1987, and I've lived in several states and cities/towns since then. I didn't get involved in anything in the '60s. I'd chosen alcohol and drugs as my priority. In 1988, I got sober and clean, and that's what I was involved with for eleven years. Now, I'm retired, learning to use a computer, experiencing the Internet, and trying to be an activist through communicating online. Newtown made me sad, angry and guilty. I didn't feel I'd made much effort to do whatever I could to improve our society. Now, I'm becoming afraid that wealth and corruption are controlling our government and us, Obama is a disappointment, and I don't much like this country any more. I've come to believe that our situation is hopeless. Someone please tell me what I can do. I'm not a person who gives up easily. I'm just sad.

Ebix Announces First Quarter 2013 Results *Quarterly Revenue of $52.6 Million, Up 20% Year-Over-Year *Q1 Diluted EPS of $0.45, Up 13% Year-Over-Year ATLANTA, May 10, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ebix, Inc. (Nasdaq:EBIX), a leading international supplier of On-Demand software and E-commerce services to the insurance industry, today reported results for the fiscal first quarter ended March 31, 2013. Ebix delivered the following results for the first quarter of 2013: Revenues: Total Q1 2013 revenue was $52.6 million, an increase of 20% on a year-over-year basis, as compared to Q1 2012 revenue of $43.8 million. Earnings per Share: Q1 2013 diluted earnings per share rose 13% year-over-year to $0.45, as compared to $0.40 in the first quarter of 2012.

Operating Cash: Cash generated from operations Q1 2013 was $14.3 million, up 5% year-over-year as compared to $13.7 million in Q1 2012. Margins: Operating margins for Q1 2013 were lower at 37% as compared to 42% for Q1 2012. The operating margins in Q1 2013 were impacted by the Company incurring certain onetime legal and travel costs associated with the recently announced merger with an affiliate of Goldman Sachs, and the impact of lower initial operating margins from some of the businesses acquired in 2012, as compared to our existing operations. Furthermore, in Q1 of 2012, the Company realized a net benefit in the approximate amount of $971 thousand related to a termination fee received by the Company in connection with a failed business acquisition.

Am having a serious problem: my app runs perfectly on iphone 3GS, but having problems with iPhone4: when the user taps home button then reopen the app, all the data saved in database are vanished. I cant't explain what is happening, the app used to run fine on both devices (with different os), then when i did some changes on the entities of coreData, this problem occures: I tried to delete the XcDataModel and recreate it, the problem is the same. Any help please?
ps: I tested the app on a new iPhone 4 device (i didn't run on it any previous version of the app ) and I have the same problem
