Secondly, while the fact that the development team is working on ways that they "can work these devices seamlessly into a variety of carrier networks" is all well and good, the establishment of 3G or 4G networks in whatever countries or hostile territories American personnel are deployed to sounds like a very expensive undertaking. The $2.4 million initial investment in the technology is, in the grand scheme of things, relatively small. However, for it to be implemented it will require not just millions more in development costs, but either the breakthrough of satellite 3G or 4G technology, a much bigger undertaking in research costs and construction of the satellites themselves, or the construction of networks within territory occupied by American soldiers, which would also be quite expensive and a potential target for enemy activity. There is also the fact that the devices themselves would be much more fragile than traditional radios and thus more vulnerable to the extreme conditions or firefights that our troops may find themselves in.
In my opinion, the project, while being well-intentioned, may be misguided, and is another example of the government's misuse of taxpayer dollars. However, this is nowhere near the obscene amounts that are poured into defense for not enough of a good reason. I appreciate the idea of the United States Air Force being the most technologically advanced on the planet, but the F-22 Raptor fighter program has cost this country a total of at least $66.7 billion and has yet to fire a shot in anger. Our fleet of F/A-18, F-16 and other assorted jets has been more than sufficient to meet America's military needs in the actions in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the F-35 Lightning II, scheduled to come into service in 2016 and projected to make up the large bulk of the U. S. Air Force, will outclass the F-22 when it does enter the playing field.
I dislike making an example of something so innocuous as advances in communication to put a greater point forward, but it is blatantly clear to me that to begin cutting government spending to help fight the massive debt and oncoming fiscal cliff our great nation faces, we must take a serious look at where exactly we are putting the income that does enter America's coffers, starting with the Pentagon. – Josh Lemmon, Lakeside

Lion Cubs Are Adjusting to Life at the Duluth Zoo
By Brandon Stahl, Duluth News-Tribune, Minn.
Jul. 7–People hoping to catch a glimpse of the newest residents of the Lake Superior Zoo on Sunday may have been slightly disappointed. The three lion cubs did what just about everyone else did during what was the hottest day of the year — hide in the shade.
Still, some patrons who went behind a wooden fence to get a better view of the enclosure saw the cubs — two females and a male, all siblings — peering back at them out of a small cave in their rocky habitat. Zookeeper Dave Homstad said that's the same spot where the lions found a way to break their water feeder, meaning until the problem is fixed the only time they'll be able to get a drink is at night, when they're ushered into an enclosure.
Just another challenge, Homstad said, of maintaining a zoo.
"Just when you think you have everything figured out," he said, "something new comes at you."
Since arriving in late February to replace a 19-year-old tiger that died, the three cubs have been one of the facility's most popular attractions, zoo marketing director Anita Alberding said.
The tigers have more than doubled in size since February; they weigh about 130 to 150 pounds and eat about 7 pounds of food a day, which Homstad estimated costs $20 to $30 per cat daily.
When they aren't hiding from the heat, Homstad said, the cubs typically play around with toys or playfully gnaw on each other, which can be a fun sight for zoo visitors.
Still, Alberding said that while she didn't have specific figures, she noted that attendance was down from last year, when the zoo had Crunch, a 150-year-old snapping turtle that tours the country.
"Money is going into the gas tank," Alberding said. "Everybody's feeling it."
Alberding said she is optimistic that things can change, especially when the zoo gets 10th big cat, a male tiger named Usseri, to go with the female tiger near the main entrance of the park.

President Obama and President Sarkozy of France gave this joint press conference at the White House on March 30, 2010.
PRESIDENT OBAMA:� Please, everybody have a seat.� Good afternoon.� Bienvenue.
I am delighted to welcome my dear friend, President Sarkozy, to the White House.� And I also want to welcome to the United States the First Lady of France, and Michelle and I are very much looking forward to hosting our guests at dinner this evening.
Now, I have to point out that the French are properly famous for their cuisine, and so the fact that Nicolas went to Ben�s Chili Bowl for lunch -- (laughter) -- I think knows -- shows his discriminating palate.� My understanding is he had a half-smoke, so he was sampling the local wares.� And we appreciate that very much.
This visit is an opportunity to return the hospitality that the President and the French people have shown to me during my visits to France.� And that includes our family�s wonderful visit to Paris last summer.� Michelle and I will never forget the opportunity to introduce our daughters for the first time to the City of Lights.� And I don�t think that Sasha will ever forget celebrating her 8th birthday at the �lys�e Palace with the President of France.� That's a pretty fancy way for an 8-year-old to spend their birthday.
Today, President Sarkozy and I have reaffirmed the enduring ties between our countries.� France is our oldest ally, and one of our closest.� We are two great republics �- bound by common ideals �- that have stood together for more than two centuries, from Yorktown to Normandy to Afghanistan.
Under President Sarkozy�s leadership, France has further secured its rightful place as a leader in Europe and around the world, recognizing that meeting global challenges requires global partnerships.� France took the historic step of returning to NATO�s military command, and we are working to revitalize our transatlantic bonds, including a strong, capable European Union, which the United States firmly supports -- because a close transatlantic partnership is critical to progress, whether it�s applying our combined strength to promote development and confront violent extremism in Africa, or reconstruction in Haiti, or advancing peace from the Caucasus to the Middle East.
Mr. President, on behalf of the American people, I also want to thank you for your personal efforts to strengthen the partnership between our countries.� We first met four years ago. I was a senator then; Nicolas was still running for President at the time, and I immediately came to admire your legendary energy �- and your enthusiasm for what our countries can achieve together.� That was the spirit of your eloquent speech to Congress three years ago, which deeply moved many Americans.
Over the past year, the President and I have worked closely on numerous occasions.� We respect one another and understand one another, and we share a belief that through bold yet pragmatic action, our generation can bend the arc of history toward justice and towards progress.� And this shared commitment to solving problems allowed us to advance our common interests today.
We agreed to continue working aggressively to sustain the global economic recovery and create jobs for our people.� And this includes, as we agreed with our G20 partners at Pittsburgh, to replacing the old cycle of bubble and bust with growth that is balanced and sustained.� And this requires effective coordination by all nations.� To that end, I updated the President on our efforts to pass financial reform, and I look forward to the Senate taking action on this landmark legislation so we never repeat the mistakes that led to this crisis.
We must provide sufficient oversight so that reckless speculation or reckless risk-taking by a few big players in the financial markets will never again threaten the global economy or burden taxpayers.� We must assure that consumers of financial products have the information and safeguards that they need, so their life savings are not placed in needless jeopardy.� And that�s why I press for the passage of these reforms through Congress when they return, and I will continue to work with President Sarkozy and other world leaders to coordinate our efforts, because we want to make sure that whatever steps we�re taking, they are occurring on both sides of the Atlantic.
We agreed that sustained and balanced growth includes rejecting protectionism.� France is one of our largest trading partners.� And we need to expand global commerce, not constrain it.� With that regard, we think it�s important that Doha trade negotiations move forward this year, and we need all interested parties to push for a more ambitious and balanced agreement that opens global markets.� And we look forward to France�s presidency of both the G8 and G20 next year.� So Nicolas is going to be very busy.
To address climate change, we agreed that all nations aligned with the Copenhagen accord must meet their responsibilities.� And I would note that President Sarkozy�s leadership has resulted in significant new resources to address deforestation around the world.� Upcoming meetings at the United Nations and the Major Economies Forum will be an opportunity for nations to follow up their Copenhagen commitments with specific and concrete actions that reduce emissions.
We reaffirmed our commitment to confront the greatest threat to global security �- the spread of nuclear weapons.� And I updated President Sarkozy on our new START treaty with Russia.� I look forward to welcoming President Sarkozy back to Washington in two weeks for our summit on securing vulnerable nuclear material so that they never fall into the hands of terrorists.
We discussed our shared determination to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.� On this the United States and France are united, are inseparable.� With our P5-plus-1 partners, we offer Iran good faith proposals to resolve this matter through diplomacy.� But Iran thus far has rejected those offers.� Today, the international community is more united than ever on the need for Iran to uphold its obligations.� And that�s why we�re pursuing strong sanctions through the U.N. Security Council.
And finally we discussed our efforts to advance security and peace around the world, including in the Middle East, where we agree that all sides need to act now to create the atmosphere that gives the proximity talks the best chance to succeed.
I shared my impressions from my discussions with President Karzai on the urgent need for good government and development in Afghanistan.� As I told our troops, we salute our coalition partners, and that includes France, which is one of the largest contributors to the NATO mission, and which has given its most precious resource, the lives of its young men and women, to a mission that is vital to the security of both our countries� and the world�s security.
So I thank President Sarkozy for his visit and for the progress that our countries have made today, in large part because of his extraordinary leadership.� We are global partners facing global challenges together, and I think that Nicolas will agree that when it comes to America�s oldest ally, we�ve never been closer.
So I'll simply close with words that one American leader expressed to another French partner more than 200 years ago, because Washington�s words to Rochambeau reflect the bonds between our countries today:� We are �fellow laborers in the cause of liberty and we have lived together as brothers should do -- in harmonious friendship.�
In that spirit, I welcome President Nicolas Sarkozy.
PRESIDENT SARKOZY:� (As translated.)� Thank you, Mr. President.� Thank you for your invitation.� I think that we can say -- I stand to be corrected by Bernard Kouchner and Christine Lagarde -- but I think we can say that rarely in the history of our two countries has the community of views been so identical between the United States of America and France.
To wit, one example, which is that France would not be stepping next year into the presidency of the G20 had the United States of America not supported France for this presidency.� Now, there are the words, there are the statements, and then there are the facts, the acts, and that is a fact.
Now, I will not repeat what President Obama so eloquently said.� On Afghanistan, we support President Obama�s strategy.� We cannot afford to lose -- not for us, not for ourselves, but for Afghanistan and for the people of Afghanistan, who are entitled to live in freedom.� Of course the road is arduous.� Of course nothing can be anticipated.� And of course we are so sorrowful for the loss of young lives.� But we have to have the courage to go to the end of our strategy and explain that there is no alternative strategy.� Defeat would be too high a price for the security of Americans, the French, and Europeans.� By fighting in Afghanistan, what we are fighting for is world security, quite simply.
Now, on Iran, I am very satisfied with what President Obama has said.� The time has come to take decisions.� Iran cannot continue its mad race.� Now, we don�t want to punish Iran, which deserves better than what it has by way of leadership today, and therefore fully support in order to get stronger, tougher sanctions at the Security Council and take the necessary decisions is what you have.� I have said to President Obama that with Angela Merkel and Gordon Brown we will make all necessary efforts to ensure that Europe as a whole engages in the sanction regime.
On the Middle East, it�s excellent news to hear that the United States are thus engaged.� Of course peace in the Middle East is the -- is something which concerns primarily the Israelis and the Palestinians.� However, the absence of peace in the Middle East is a problem for all of us, because what it does is keep feeding terrorism all over the world.� And I wish to express my solidarity vis-�-vis President Obama in condemning the settlement process.� Everybody knows how engaged and committed I am vis-�-vis Israel�s security, but the settlement process achieves nothing and contributes in no way to Israel�s safety and security.� There comes a time when you have to take initiatives in favor of peace.
Now, on financial regulation, again, it�s great news for the world to hear that the United States is availing itself of rules, adopting rules so that we not go back to what we have already experienced.� And during the French presidency of the G20, Tim Geithner, Christine Lagarde are going to be working hand-in-glove in order to go even further in regulating world capitalism, and in particular, raising the issue of a new world international monetary order.
On all these subjects there�s much convergence of views.� And of course I want to say to President Obama how glad we were for him and for the USA to hear of the successful passing of the health care reform.
And insofar as the President has revealed a secret -- namely, where I had lunch today -- I should say that I have a good friend in Washington who had actually recommended that restaurant.� When I walked in I saw a huge photograph of President Obama.� And I�m afraid that when you go back to that restaurant you may see a smaller photograph of the French President.� (Laughter.)
PRESIDENT OBAMA:� We�ve got time for a couple of questions.� I�m going to call on Ben Feller.� There you are, Ben -- AP.
Q��� Thank you, sir.� Thank you for your patience.� President Obama, you�ve talked about the importance of having consequences for Iran over its nuclear program, but is there ever a real deadline?� What is your specific timeline for U.N. sanctions on Iran?� And is it one that the American people can believe in?
PRESIDENT OBAMA:� Well --
Q��� I�m sorry, sir, I just wanted to ask President Sarkozy, you said yesterday in New York that the world needs an open America, an America that listens.� I�m wondering if you can elaborate; specifically if you think President Obama is open to the world and is listening to you.
PRESIDENT OBAMA:� Well, let me answer the second question, even though that was to Nicolas.� I listen to Nicolas all the time.� I can�t stop listening to him.� (Laughter.)
On Iran, we came in with a very clear approach and a very clear strategy, and it was an open book to the world.� We said we would engage Iran and give them an opportunity to take the right path, a path that would lead to prosperity and opportunity for their people and a peaceful region, and one in which they would allow themselves to become a full-fledged member of the community of nations.� The alternative path was further isolation and further consequences.
We mobilized the international community around this approach, including partners like Russia that in the past might have been more hesitant to take a firmer stance on Iran�s nuclear program.� What we said, though, was that there was going to be a time limit to it and that if we had not seen progress by the end of the year, it was time for us to move forward on that sanctions track.
My hope is that we are going to get this done this spring.� So I�m not interested in waiting months for a sanctions regime to be in place; I�m interested in seeing that regime in place in weeks.� And we are working diligently with our international partners, emphasizing to them that, as Nicolas said, this is not simply an issue of trying to isolate Iran; it has enormous implications for the safety and the security of the entire region.� We don�t want to see a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.
A conflict in the Middle East as a consequence of Iran�s actions could have a huge destabilizing effect in terms of the world economy at a time when it�s just coming out of a very deep recession.
The long-term consequences of a nuclear-armed Iran are unacceptable.� And so Nicolas, myself and others agree that we have engaged; the door remains open if the Iranians choose to walk through it.� But they understand very clearly what the terms of a diplomatic solution would be.� And in the interim we are going to move forcefully on a U.N. sanctions regime.
Now, do we have unanimity in the international community?� Not yet.� And that's something that we have to work on.� We think that we are in a much stronger position to get robust sanctions now than we were a year ago prior to us initiating our strategy.
But it�s still difficult, partly because, let�s be honest, Iran is a oil producer and there are a lot of countries around the world that, regardless of Iran�s offenses, are thinking that their commercial interests are more important to them than these long-term geopolitical interests.� And so we have to continue to apply pressure not just on Iran but we have to make sure that we are communicating very clearly that this is very important to the United States.
Q��� You can get unanimity within weeks?
PRESIDENT OBAMA:� We think that we can get sanctions within weeks.
PRESIDENT SARKOZY:� Well, I�ve read many comments -- and I must say I�ve been quite amused -- on the relations between European leaders and the President of the United States.� I say I�m amused because I�ve thought to myself, well, when we speak to one another, people must be listening to our phone calls because I have seen reports on conversations and discussions which in no way resemble anything that has ever taken place between Barack Obama and myself.
Now, why is it easy for us to work?� And I speak on behalf of Chancellor Merkel, Gordon Brown, and other leaders.� Well, because President Obama, when he says something, keeps his word.� His word is his bond.� And that is so important.� There�s a joke among us -- we don�t like surprises.� Well, from my point of view, there�s no surprises.� When he can, he delivers.� When he can�t, he says so.� So there are no surprises.� And we try to be likewise.
Furthermore, secondly, on all topics -- and there have been some pretty tough topics.� I mean, for instance, bonus -- taxes on bonuses, regulation, financial regulations -- pretty heavy going stuff -- Copenhagen.� I mean, I happen to think that President Obama is a step ahead of public opinion in the United States on this.� But we�re constantly talking about it.� It�s even President Obama who wanted us to have a call conference, a videoconference virtually every month with Angela Merkel and Gordon Brown.
Now, this doesn�t really mean that we absolutely agree neck and neck on everything, but we talk amongst ourselves.� And this is a novelty from the point of view of Europe whenever we look at the United States that everything is put on the table, anything can be discussed, everything can be discussed.
What matters, you see, is not whether we agree once systematically before we�ve even started discussing -- that�s suspicious -- it�s to say whatever divergence of views we have, we can talk about it among ourselves.� And I say things very frankly to you, and this is what all we European leaders believe and think.
I�ve also heard it said that Europe was less interested in the United States.� Well, for heaven�s sake, how many times do we have to come over to show that we are interested?� What would it mean if we were interested?
So, very frankly and very honestly on this, not only is it not an issue, not a problem, but it�s great to be able to work under such conditions.� I would say that what I have to say about President Obama is the same as what Bernard Kouchner could say about Hillary Clinton, or Christine Lagarde about Tim Geithner.� We�re constantly having a dialogue.
I could even take you -- give you an example of something on which we don�t necessarily agree, such as Syria -- or we didn�t agree.� France took an initiative, as you know.� Well, I�ll say this to you:� At no point, no point, has President Obama turned his back on what we were doing.� Constantly he�s watching, he�s listening.� We�re constantly exchanging information on the subject.� Even when there are more complex topics, including in our relations with the Russians, before even we inform our Russian -- the Russians or our partners, I pick up the phone, I call President Obama, and he knows exactly what we�re going to do and why we�re going to do it.� You follow me on that?
So, there may be disagreements, but never for the wrong reasons.� And as we are very transparent on both sides, there�s confidence, there�s trust.� And I really think I can say that.� There�s a lot of trust.
Now, trust always helps one overcome perhaps diverging interests.� It may be that the United States of America has slightly different interests of those of France, but the bedrock of trust between us is something that he also has with all European leaders.� And I don�t say this to please you.� I said this is true.� And I took two examples of two topics that could, in other tide, other times, have led to head-on collision, and which in this case, on the contrary, are looked at on both sides of the Atlantic as a situation where we are complementary.
Perhaps he said, well, maybe on Syria, France is on the right track, and maybe one day we�ll have the opportunity to do likewise, and that�s exactly the way we work.
Go ahead, I�m not the one with the mic.
Q��� (As translated.)� Since you�ve just talked about the United -- the relations between Europe and United States, didn�t you get a bad surprise, a nasty surprise, on the Pentagon�s decision on the tanker planes, which reversed the decision which had originally been taken in favor of Airbus?� Did you raise this subject with President Obama?� And if so, did you try and put together a new approach so as to ensure that the competition would be fairer, new version of this contract with the Pentagon, and don�t you think that it would be probably fair to share this contract with the Europeans, since they are now full members of NATO and that they share the price of the war on the ground?
PRESIDENT SARKOZY:� If I said I hadn't raised it, it would mean that what I've just told you would be meaningless and senseless.� Of course we�ve talked about it -- and President Obama will give you his answer.� But I said to him, I trust you. And I do trust him.� If you say to me that the request for proposals, the call for tenders will be free, fair and transparent, then we say EADS will bid and we trust you.
PRESIDENT OBAMA:� What I said to President Sarkozy is, is that the process will be free and fair, and that the trust is justified.
Now, it�s important for my European friends to understand that, at least here, the Secretary of Defense makes procurement decisions.� The President does not meddle in these decisions.� And that's a longstanding policy.� So I maintain an arm�s length approach, but I have assurances from Secretary of Defense Gates that, in fact, the re-bidding process is going to be completely transparent, completely open, and a fair competition.� That's in our interests.� It�s in the interest of American taxpayers, and it�s also in the interest of our young men and women who rely on this equipment in order to protect this nation.
And it�s important to note, I think, for those of you who don't know Secretary Gates, this is somebody who has actually taken on the military and weapons systems establishment and initiated some very significant procurement reforms that nobody ever thought would happen here in Washington.� So he�s somebody who�s willing to call it like it is and make difficult decisions, and he will do so in this situation as well.
Thank you very much, everybody.

I have a yoga website [ catherinetingey.com/wp ] that needs the following changes made to the GONZO theme. Timeframe 1 week or Less!!!
1) Move the black bar below the featured slider so that it is not covering any part of the image. I believe this requires knowledge of CSS. Also, change titles of slides in slideshow.
2) Remove Google Events calendar. Come up with a different feature to show my teaching schedule.
3) Fix the Catherine Tingey logo. Make it like the Gonzo theme (font = Motoroil 1937)
4) Reduce Social Media Icons to the 3 on the Gonzo theme template
5) Limit homepage to 5 categories from left to right: 1) Asana Analysis, 2) Profiles 3) Product Reviews 4) Soul & Spirit 5) Recipes
6) Clean up the bottom bar of site. Remove and replace copyright. Fix the logo and the icons above the bio.
7) Set up a standard bio that is used at the bottom left of home page, and is the signature on all blog posts.
Insert a tab called MEDIA in between 'SCHEDULE' and 'CONTACT'. List 2 hyperlinked photographs to articles I've written or photoshoots I've been featured in.
Thanks, Catherine

Love the results!Love this eye cream, it is nice and light and easily absorbed, not at all greasy. The pump top is a great feature for keeping the product fresh, and a little goes a long way. I find that if I just do a half push/pump on the lid it is more than enough per treatment each evening.

Like the other Android models in Azure, she has a flesh-like exterior with a mettalic alloy skeleton and an artificial computer-like brain which retains her memories and consciousness. NationalityEmelie was American of Dutch descent. OccupationScientist/ Programmer - specializing in artificial intelligences and bio-mechanics. OtherShe enjoys watercolour painting and was an Olympic swimming medalist (Bronze). Also enjoys diving and climbing. History Prior to the Event, Emelie (Azure) was a lead researcher for Minerva's Sentinel Project, heading a team consisting of thinktank members Ana (Viridian), Sacha (Sienna), Molochai, and Emelie herself. Just prior to the event, Emelie was stricken by a devestating illness, and upon waking just after the event - found herself alone on the island compound, with only Pearl, a gigantic A.I. submersible craft. Pearl informed Emelie of their directives: to seek and aid survivors, chart alterations to the planet, and eliminate harmful mutations arising from the event, and of Emelie's particular code name to use in transmissions to one another - Azure. After an unusual attack by well-supplied and outfitted pirates, Emelie learned of a secret protocol, "X8", unknown to herself but embedded in her psyche. Upon activating this protocol she was transformed into a killing machine with perfect movements and precision. Nothing more is known about this strange ability.

to making serious quit attempts (about 45 percent try seriously to quit each year). If at first a smoker is not successful at quitting (over 90 percent are not), the arduous journey continues with cycles of trying to quit but relapsing to trying again. Some smokers may give up and feel too exhausted or perhaps even a bit ashamed to keep trying or to risk admission of repeated failure to their family, friends, and relatives. All too often a smoker may use unproven treatments or willpower to quit (over 75 percent do that). There are other barriers that a smoker needs to overcome, such as the cost of formal treatment or a lack of ability to discern ineffective from evidence-based treatments. There is no Consumer Reports or Good Housekeeping Award to guide one's choice of cessation products and services. Perhaps a lucky smoker may eventually quit on his or her own or with the use of an effective cessation product or service. Finally, the journey ends when the smoker either quits for good or suffers and dies from a smoking related cause (about one third to one half of lifetime smokers will die of a smoking-related disease).
Now that research has helped us understand so much of this journey, the challenge is to put what we know into practice and policy, and there is not a moment to lose as over 430,000 of our friends and fellow U.S. citizens die prematurely each year from their smoking addiction (that equals three fully loaded jumbo jets crashing with no survivors every single day, including weekends and holidays).
There is substantial room to find more leverage points to improve the overall cessation outcome rate at every step of the way along a smoker's journey to freedom from their addiction. This opportunity can only be fully realized with strong political will to do the right thing by designing cessation policies that support a comprehensive, systems approach to cessation intervention. This approach should provides aggressive, direct-to-consumer marketing and education campaigns to improve smoker's health literacy about the dangers of smoking and the best tools for quitting. It should also cover the critical leverage points along the entire smokers' journey, from being a slave to smoking to eventual freedom from tobacco addiction, and should provide interventions tailored to the smoker's needs. This can be achieved through cessation policies that support a comprehensive care management network as well as cessation policies that ensure adequate resources and aligned financial incentives at federal, state, and local levels across both the delivery systems within the health care industry and across the broader public health system.
Effective cessation programs are available but greatly underutilized, despite the social climate that is making it more difficult to smoke (e.g., bans in worksites, higher taxes). Decades of research, clinical practice guidelines, and meta-analyses provide solid evidence of the efficacy and cost effectiveness of smoking cessation interventions. Interventions include behavioral and pharmacological options ranging in intensity and cost from minimal (e.g., self-help) to maximal (e.g., inpatient treatment).
Less than 50 percent of the over 45 million current U.S. smokers make a quit attempt each year. Of those that try to quit, over 75 percent do so on their own without evidence-based programs and, of those, over 95 percent relapse. Using even a minimal intensity/brief cessation program generally doubles the likelihood of success. There is also a dose-response relationship such that use of more intensive programs and use of combined pharmacological and behavioral programs can triple to quadruple the likelihood of success.
As indicated by the available scientific evidence and computer simulation modeling (see work of Levy, Appendix J, and Mendez, Appendix K), even a conservative increase in the reach (number or percentage of smokers out of all current smokers who make a quit attempt each year) and a modest improvement in effectiveness (percent of smokers who use evidence-based programs and thereby increase their chances of maintenance of cessation) can play a very significant

The camp at Bibikulam Welfare Centre in Meenambalpuram saw a number of expectant mothers and women from the locality getting themselves checked through the day.
The City Corporation organised camps to check maternal health and wellness of women at Bibikulam, Anuppanadi and Bethaniapuram on Monday.
The camp at Bibikulam Welfare Centre in Meenambalpuram, which was inaugurated by Mayor V.V. Rajan Chellappa, saw a number of expectant mothers and women from the locality getting themselves checked through the day.
Speaking about the initiative, City Health Officer V. Yasodha Mani said they were making healthcare more accessible to women and spreading an awareness of the importance of maternal healthcare.
"Complete anti-natal care will be provided to expectant mothers and they can have a regular check-up, and blood and urine tests if necessary. Vaccines will also be administered to women and children under the age of five if they have missed out any vaccine," she said.
"Expectant mothers could also submit applications for and clarify doubts about Muthlakshmi Reddy Scheme," Dr.Yasodha also added.
The medical camps would be organised in different parts of the city on February 18 and 20 as well.More camps
"On February 18, the medical camps will be organised at K. Pudur, Balarengapuram and Anna Thoppu, and on February 20, the camps will be organised at Sathamangalam, Munichalai and M.K. Puram," a Corporation official said.

HOUSTON -- The man once recognized as a neighborhood hero bonded out of jail Thursday night.
Rik Melartin, aka the The Finnisher, has been seen wielding a gun in his television advertisement, but on Thursday, he was seen wearing an orange jumpsuit.
The 51-year-old Olympian was in court to learn the conditions of his bond.
The mother of his alleged victim was also there and said she wanted to look him in the eye.
I am going to walk this every step of the way in getting justice for my daughter, she said. If he s brought in to sign a paper I will be there, every step of the way.
Melartin is accused of paying her daughter, who was 16, to have sex. His assistant, 37-year-old George Koutani is accused of indecency.
They all worked at John Keating Chevrolet in Crosby.
Though Melartin and Koutani both bonded out, Melartin was re-arrested this week as he was filling out paperwork at the courthouse.
There had been a clerical snafu which had caused his bond to be revoked.
On Thursday, the bond was reinstated, but with conditions.
Melartin must now wear a GPS device on his ankle and surrender his firearms. He can only leave Harris County for work reasons.
According to his attorney, Jim Butler, Melartin has already surrendered his passport.
He s happy now, Butler said, Happy that he gets to go back home. All of the other emotions from one end of the spectrum to the other are still there.
Butler claims the victim s family first fought for a settlement worth nearly $1 million, and that criminal charges were filed only after Melartin refused to pay.
The family denies that.
Other women have since claimed they were victims too. Butler says he has not seen any new charges filed against his client.

Veteran Realtor and his team joins Troop, Westlake Village office
Terming him "perennially one of the nation's top residential sales people over a 20-year career," Brian Troop, president of Troop Real Estate Inc., announced that Stephen Christie and the Stephen Christie Team have joined Troop Real Estate in its Westlake Village office.
Christie comes to Troop Real Estate after a diverse career that began with Troop in 1990. Subsequently, Christie acquired and operated his own firm and a franchise of a national real estate firm, then served with the national firm in the Westlake Village area market. During this time he has assisted more than 3,500 families to fulfill their dreams of owning, investing and creating wealth through real estate.
A Pepperdine University finance and management graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree, Christie has earned such accolades as Top 4 Realtor nationwide and Top One Percent companywide for a national firm. Enhancing his expertise, he has owned and operated three real estate companies and an escrow company during his career.
"Stephen launched his career with me, and from day one I knew he would reach the top because of his honesty, hard work, charisma and a sincere caring for his clients and community, Troop said. "He and I have mutual respect and shared values. The arrival of Stephen and his team means that Troop Real Estate is getting a powerful, well organized team that will help us become even more of a factor in our chosen market area."
Christie, commenting on his arrival at Troop said at this stage of his career, he finds it most important to connect with a company that aligns with the goals of both his team and clientele. "Troop offers innovative thinking, technology, tools, and support on every level, as well as a personal touch in their approach to real estate. I can connect with that," he said.
In addition to his career success in real estate, Christie also has coached and trained some of the best agents in the business, as well as shared his expertise in real estate to aid in the development of a technology system driven for Realtor success.
He attends and is asked to speak at many top real estate venues nationwide.
Like many Troop agents, he is passionate about giving back to the community, Troop said. Christie and his team continuously participate in various ways of giving back, including an Adopt-A-Family effort at the end of each year.
He and his family live in Wood Ranch.
Christie can reached at 582-9500.

Why don't you just use a pac file for your proxy settings on your clients - then the only thing you have to hand out to clients via script or group policy is the location of the pac file. You can then do whatever you want with bypasses, using lots of different if's and else's -- you can get as fancy as you need to for bypass, use different proxy, etc.. etc..
And just need to update the pac file for all clients to get the changes - no need to rerun a login script or update group policy on any changes, etc.
here is a good ref to get you started using a pac file
Another nice thing about use of this is most browsers are set by default for autodect, so will use WPAD to find the location of said pac file and then use it.
This way guests or non AD members would also get your proxy info as long as they are setup for default auto discovery. Even if using a different browser vs just IE, etc.

Review: Fun fact: Piri Piri got his name from a bet with the boss of Nandos. Not only did he bag himself an easy-to-remember name, but he also bagged himself a highly sought after Nandos Gold Card! Very impressive. But nowhere near as impressive as this rather tight double-track release. "Easy Blessings" is a deep ride into UKG and UKF territory with switchy beats, warm subs and chords so mournful they could actually make a car cry. "Eizo" is a more full-frontal affair with that opens with almost two minutes of percussion before we drop into some very serious Amen-riddled bashment. What a tease!

Review: If you like your beats like you like your Nandos, i.e. with an extra saucy kick, then Piri Piri's your man. The UKG elements of yore have taken a bit of a backseat in his productions here, instead opting for weirder, freakier jams on Patterns. We're not complaining either as this EP is stuffed full of dancefloor punishment of the finest the kind. Highlights here include the deep voodoo-tech of "Peak", the warped retro freestyle of "Ice Cream" and Neana's stompin' keyboard-falling-down-the-stairs version of "Quest".

Review: Following up their last epic dancefloor bomb by label bosses Wool & Vortex, Sounds Of Sumo get deep down and utterly trippy with this extensive selection of bass bullets. Four original tracks, and six remixes, each cut is textured with all manner of fine-tuned noises, whooshes and rises. "Mami" leads from the front; a moombhaton inspired number with a speedy tempo and splintered vocal sample, it gets down to business quicker than you can say 'Lord Sugar'. "Postal" follows with a heavy Miami bass twang while "Lead Slipper" is a riveting take on both breakbeat and bashment. "You Seem" finishes the set with a far more subdued, future garage flavoured vibe. And that's all before we get to the remixes!

In a previous article I outlined the difficulties I am having in allocating new cash to my portfolio. However, I mentioned that I am comfortable holding the companies I own. This is because I believe that the companies in my dividend portfolio have excellent business prospects, and also have favorable business economics.
I have spent thousands of hours poring through annual reports, press releases, analyst reports, looking at financial trends, and trying to understanding each respective business. As a result I am relatively familiar with the companies I own. While I monitor positions frequently, I am not pulling the sell trigger unless there is a dividend cut. I do reserve the right to sell if other activities happen, that could cause me to question the business prospects for the company. For example, I have sold companies before, when I found comparable securities at much better valuations. In those occasions, I have traded up either by obtaining better growth prospects, or better yields.
Of course, if the securities I sold became attractive again, I would purchase them at the lower valuations. Unfortunately, great securities are typically close to being fairly valued, and quite often stay overvalued for extended periods of time. As a result, it is fairly rare to find comparable securities with similar business characteristics, while selling at better valuations.
This exercise helped me reach a Eureka moment: My best ideas are already in my portfolio It is true that some of them are overvalued, and not worth adding to at current prices. However, I am perfectly fine holding on to these stocks and doing nothing for 20 – 30 years. My second "a-ha" moment was that for many of the companies I do not own, but would consider to be "best ideas", I am already familiar with them.
For many of the companies I own, I would welcome the next recession as a buying opportunity. Other than that, the problem I would be facing is that fresh capital will be accumulating whether I contribute money or not. As a result, I would have to find more uses for the capital. Luckily, I am well-versed in the components of the Dividend Champion and Dividend Achiever lists. I keep scanning them for opportunity, and learning about each business that I find appealing. For me, an appealing business is one that I expect to be around in 10 -20 and even more than 30 years.
For example, I believe that Hershey (HSY) would be around for the next 30 years (and beyond), while delivering a product that customers associate with quality that they are willing to pay a rising price for. This pricing power will deliver rising profits and dividends for the company's shareholders. Unfortunately, while holding on to this cash machine could be a smart long-term strategy for existing investors, the stock is overvalued at 25.70 times forward earnings for new investors. However, I would keep monitoring the company, and would love to initiate a position at the next hiccup of the enterprise or during the next recession.
I also believe that the products of Brown-Forman (BF.B) would be around for at least 30 years from now. The stock price is overvalued at the moment at 23 times forward earnings. However, I am not seeing a comparable alternative that is substantially cheaper, to make it worthwhile my time and effort to replace Brown-Forman with it. The other company needs to be comparable from a quality perspective, but from a valuation perspective needs to be both cheaper and also meet my entry criteria.
A few companies I already own, which I find attractively priced today include:
ConocoPhillips (COP) explores for, produces, transports, and markets crude oil, bitumen, natural gas, liquefied natural gas, and natural gas liquids on a worldwide basis. This dividend achiever has raised distributions for 13 years in a row. Over the past decade, it has raised dividends by 15.10%/year. Currently, the stock trades at 11.20 times earnings and yields 4.10%. Check my analysis of ConocoPhillips.
Chevron Corporation (CVX), through its subsidiaries, engages in petroleum, chemicals, mining, power generation, and energy operations worldwide. This dividend achiever has raised distributions for 26 years in a row. Over the past decade, it has raised dividends by 9.60%/year. Currently, the stock trades at 9.70 times earnings and yields 3.30%. Check my analysis of Chevron.
Dr Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. (DPS) operates as a brand owner, manufacturer, and distributor of non-alcoholic beverages in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean. This company has raised distributions since 2010. Currently, the stock trades at 15.30 times earnings and yields 3.20%. Check my analysis of Dr Pepper.
McDonalds Corporation (MCD) franchises and operates McDonald's restaurants in the United States, Europe, the Asia/Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, Canada, and Latin America. This dividend champion has raised distributions for 36 years in a row. Over the past decade, it has raised dividends by 28.40%/year. Currently, the stock trades at 17.40 times earnings and yields 3.20%. Check my analysis of McDonalds.
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.(WMT) operates retail stores in various formats worldwide. The company operates in three segments: Walmart U.S., Walmart International, and Sam's Club. This dividend champion has raised distributions for 39 years in a row. Over the past decade, it has raised dividends by 18.10%/year. Currently, the stock trades at 14.60 times earnings and yields 2.50%. Check my analysis of Wal-Mart.
Target Corporation (TGT) operates general merchandise stores in the United States. This dividend champion has raised distributions for 46 years in a row. Over the past decade, it has raised dividends by 18.60%/year. Currently, the stock trades at 16.10 times earnings and yields 2.50%. Check my analysis of Target.

When I get more cash, going to be buying WMT. The price is coming down, which means time to buy :)ReplyDelete
I agree. Added to my position in KO this week.ReplyDelete
I agree Dividend Investor. While I'm always interested in learning about new companies, I find I have a select group of companies where I am very familiar and the most comfortable investing in for the long term. I have picked out a group of 35 companies that I want to build my portfolio with. Unless any of these companies give me reason to change my mind in the future (which I'm sure some will as change is inevitable) I feel no need to keep finding more and more companies to want to add to my portfolio. The only exception would be if I find an absolutely great company at an absolutely great valuation that I hadn't been looking at before.ReplyDelete

Hi DGI,ReplyDelete
an alternative for BF.B could be the british stock Diageo (DEO). It's slightly cheaper and has a nice product portfolio. I do own both. :-)
There are a handful of very high quality businesses with consistent earnings and strong dividend histories. Diversifying for the sake of adding something else doesn't necessarily strengthen your portfolio, you could end up substituting diluting your earnings and dividend quality for the sake of diversificationReplyDelete
They always say the majority of your returns will come from 20% of your holdings. Just have to pick the right ones. Happy investing.ReplyDelete
