Rapfogel Pleads Guilty To Met Council Scam
Admits to stealing more than $7 million from the charity organization
William Rapfogel, the former CEO of Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty who was arrested in September 2013 on charges of grand larceny and money laundering, pleaded guilty today in New York's State Supreme Court. The New York Times reports that Rapfogel, who led the organization for more than 20 years until getting fired in August 2013 during the investigation, admitted to stealing more than $7 million from the charity.
Also charged was Rapfogel's predeccessor at the Council, David Cohen, who pleaded guilty today as well—suggesting that the fraud potentially spanned decades. The sceme involved the Met Council's insurance company, Century Coverage Corporation, which would inflate the Council's insurance rates by hundreds of thousands of dollars, which Rapfogel and his co-conspirators would then keep for themselves. Century's owner pleaded guilty to grand larceny, money laundering, and tax fraud in December 2013.
The case has gotten increased attention due to Rapfogel's longtime ties to New York State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, who Newsday reports was Rapfogel's youth basketball coach. Rapfogel's wife, Judy, has served as Silver's chief of staff for many years. Silver has since distanced himself from Rapfogel.

CloudLock Acquires Technology and Talent of Innovode, Accelerates Vision of Becoming the People-Centric Security Fabric of Public Cloud Applications
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) WALTHAM, MA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/12/14 -- CloudLock, the leading cloud information security provider, today announced it has acquired the intellectual property of Innovode Ltd and hired the key team members of the Bristol, UK company behind Innovode Armor, an integrated encryption solution for Google Drive.
Similar to CloudLock, Innovode has focused on solving critical security challenges for organizations, deploying public cloud applications. The Innovode team, led by co-founders Howard Snart and Peter Spellward, has years of experience in the field of data loss prevention (DLP) and compliance. Howard and Peter pioneered market-leading products for Orchestria and CA prior to founding Innovode. CloudLock will absorb Innovode's technology into its current offerings to further accelerate CloudLock's product innovation and inject additional core expertise that will benefit CloudLock's customers.

Innovode's technology and core expertise will help us to continue to be innovative and customer-centric, helping organizations accelerate the adoption of public cloud applications securely." "When we first met with the CloudLock team, we saw an agile and market-leading organization that also views the cloud as an opportunity rather than a problem and cloud security as a way to accelerate business objectives rather than as a hindrance," said Peter Spellward, co-founder of Innovode. "By joining CloudLock, we will be able to make even greater leaps in the level of security that governs cloud resident data." The Innovode acquisition follows CloudLock securing a Series C of funding of $16.5 million in January 2014 with the goal to fuel company growth through product acceleration, an increased investment in customer success and global expansion starting with a UK presence.

"Golf is not a game of good shots. It's a game of bad shots." – Ben Hogan
By Ian Hardie
A while back I was on the golf course conducting a playing lesson with a golfer who had been having lessons with me over a period of a few months
Which were mostly focussed on improving the consistency of their golf action
Just like a lot of golfers experience, the golfer felt (and the quality of the shots on the practice fairway showed) that their golf action had improved as a result of the ideas that we had worked through together
However, the scores that the golfer was posting weren't reflecting that improvement which meant that the golfer was concerned that
'They weren't scoring as well as they thought they should have been'
As I wrote about in the article Do you really need golf lessons – part six? that's exactly the reason for having a playing lesson – taking whatever skill level the golfer has at the game and working through some ways to turn that into consistently lower scores on the golf course
Anyway, even though doing that is a good idea for almost all golfers – something that you can find out more about here if you would like to do one or two with me – that's not really what I wanted to discuss today
Instead, I'd like to talk about something that happened during the playing lesson
To set the scene for you, the golfer I was with has traditionally held a handicap that sits in the high single figures to early double figures – depending on how well they are playing at the time – somewhere in the 7 – 13 range to be more precise
An above average golfer whose game was based around consistency and scoring well through having a good short game as opposed to attacking the golf course
Well, that's what it used to be anyway – as the result of working on their action with me over a period of a few months had meant that the golfer was now producing a lot more 'effective distance' off the tee
If you don't know what that means – you can find out by grabbing a copy of the book:
How to drive the golf ball as far as you possibly can
The increase in 'effective distance' was opening up a new way of being able to score on the golf course for the golfer by being able to go for the green on par 5 holes with their second shot when it was appropriate
As opposed to playing three shots to a par 5 hole that most golfers need to play
A situation like that that arose during our playing lesson, after the golfer had hit what they suggested 'was one of the best drives they had ever hit' – they were easily in range of the green of the par 5 hole that we were on for their second shot but like a lot of golfer's who get themselves into that position
As they had spent many years 'laying up' on par 5 holes – the golfer was a bit unsure of firstly whether they should go for the green from that spot and secondly, what club to use
Exactly the sort of situation that makes playing lessons so useful for most golfers!
So what I got the golfer to do was…………………………actually, I'm not going to go into the details of what we did – if you are curious about that book yourself a playing lesson today
The interesting point that I'm talking about came when I suggested that the golfer should try hitting a hybrid that I saw in their golf bag to see what it would do from that spot
The golfer quickly said 'No, I'm not going to hit that club – it's a naughty club'
'It's what sort of club?' I said in a fairly surprised tone
'It's a bad club – every time I try and use it for a shot – it lets me down'
Now you may be thinking that the golfer is somewhat 'unusual' in saying things like that about a golf club but I can tell you that certainly isn't the first time I have heard that sort of thing in the 30 years or so that I have been involved in the game
Normally, if a golfer gets to the point where they think that about a certain golf club
It gets left out of their golf bag and 'punished' by being put into a dusty corner of a garage, a dark cupboard, they trade it in for a new one or it gets given away to another golfer
Who in theory must be able to make it 'behave better' in some way than the first golfer could!
I even recall seeing a golf club hanging with a rope noose around the head of the club in a garage some years back – an apparent attempt by the golfer to 'teach it a lesson'
Each of things above (with the exception of 'hanging it for a while' I think) are very good options to take in dealing with that 'bad' or 'naughty' golf club – that always lets you down by the way
As the last place it should ever be – is in your golf bag on the golf course
Keeping a golf club in your bag that you have basically zero confidence in – will simply bring your confidence down – as it sits there every time that you look at your clubs:
Reminding you of all the bad shots you have hit with it
Reminding you of how many strange places you have hit your golf ball with it
Reminding you of those times where you were playing well until you used it on that hole
Reminding you of………………………….
I could go on with a massive list of things there I'm sure but the bottom line is that having it there messing with your mental state each time you look at it
Is something no golfer needs to have going on while playing
I certainly hadn't been aware that the golfer I was with even had a problem with it as when I had done my full bag check at our first lesson together – something that I make a point of doing with every golfer in an attempt to identify problems like this
The offending hybrid wasn't in their golf bag as it was sitting in the golfers garage at home having being 'timed out' for being 'naughty' in a similar position to the golf clubs that you can see on the left of the image above apparently
The good news for the golfer?
There was actually a fairly simple reason that the hybrid was a 'bad' or 'naughty' golf club for that particular golfer even though it was a good model and brand of golf club, as well as being fairly new
Which I'm going to tell you about in 'How to deal with that 'bad' or 'naughty' golf club – that always lets you down – part two' soon
Until then
Play well
And if you happen to be a golfer that has one or two 'bad' or 'naughty golf clubs' being stored or punished somewhere – send me a message here – to let me know how you do it!

For the third year in a row, free checking is on the decline. With just 39 percent of noninterest checking accounts being free, many Americans have gotten a letter from their bank introducing fees to their once free accounts. Bankrate.com asked Americans how much it would take to get them to start shopping around for a new checking account. Here's what they said.
Man on the street soundbites:
"They recently started charging us $15 a month in fees and we're in the process of closing that account."
"$5 a month, I guess, isn't really that bad. But anything $10, $15 a month or a minimum balance. I feel like it's a checking account, you should be able to keep what you want in there."
"If I was charged $5 a month, I'd probably move banks."
"At least $20 a month, $10 dollars a month depending on the incentives they offer. Some banks will give you incentives for ATM use and they might if you use an off-site ATM maching, they'll reimburse you so it covers the fee. But at the end of the day, no one wants to pay for their checking account."
"Once someone started charging me I would move ... for the privilege of having my money there, yes."
"I actually got that letter in the mail from Suntrust, my current bank and they had a thing where you set up an account and have a minimum balance that I could keep so I don't have to have that fee. But if there was no way to get around that fee, I would have moved banks in a second."
"I have a mortgage and a line of credit with a bank, so free checking comes along with it. If they didn't value that other business enough to give me free checking, I'd probably go take the whole can of worms somewhere else."
If you've had it with fees at your bank, you can always shop for a new account and compare features and fees right here at Bankrate.com. I'm Lucas Wysocki.
Spreading your money across multiple accounts isn't necessarily bad, but there are some drawbacks.
Pay attention to fees on prepaid cards because in most cases you can avoid them.
Banks are coming up with new ways to charge fees. Here's what you need to know to avoid them.

Randall Kenan
|This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (December 2014)
|Randall Kenan
March 12, 1963
Brooklyn, New York, US
|Alma mater
|University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Randall Kenan (born March 12, 1963) is an American author of fiction and non-fiction. Raised in a rural community in North Carolina, Kenan has focused his fiction on what it means to be black and gay in the southern United States. Among his books is the collection of short stories Let the Dead Bury Their Dead, which was named a New York Times Notable Book in 1992. Kenan is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Whiting Writers' Award and the John Dos Passos Prize.
Early years[edit]
Kenan was born in Brooklyn, New York on March 12, 1963. Initially raised by his grandparents, Kenan soon went to live with a great-aunt in Chinquapin, North Carolina, a rural community of fewer than a thousand people. The community later became the basis of the fictional Tims Creek, where all of Kenan's fiction is set.
Kenan attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, from which he graduated in 1985 with degrees in English and Creative Writing. He studied with the author Doris Betts. Based on an instructor's recommendation, and the help of novelist and editor Toni Morrison, he was hired for a job with Random House in New York City.
Professional life[edit]
Kenan eventually transferred to the editorial staff of Alfred A. Knopf, where he worked until 1989. That same year he began teaching writing at Sarah Lawrence College and Columbia University. Currently, an Associate Professor of English at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, he has served as a visiting writer or writing in residence at a number of other universities, including the University of Mississippi, the University of Memphis, Duke University and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
Kenan's first novel, A Visitation of Spirits, was published in 1989. While a few critics praised the book, it did not receive much attention. This changed with the publication in 1992 of Kenan's second book, a collection of short stories titled Let the Dead Bury Their Dead. The stories, based in the fictional community of Tims Creek, focused on (among other things) what it meant to be poor, black, and gay in the southern United States. The book was hailed as a revival of classic southern literature and was nominated for the Los Angeles Times Book Award for Fiction, was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, and was named a New York Times Notable Book. The short story collection also brought renewed attention to his first novel, which was likewise set in Tims Creek.
In 1993, Kenan published a young adult biography of gay African American novelist and essayist James Baldwin. Kenan has frequently stated that Baldwin is one of his idols. He then spent several years traveling across America and Canada collecting oral histories of African Americans, which he published in Walking on Water: Black American Lives at the Turn of the Twenty-first Century (1999).
Kenan has won a number of writing awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Whiting Writers Award, the Sherwood Anderson Award, the John Dos Passos Award, and the Rome Prize from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
In 2007 Kenan published The Fire This Time, a book whose title was taken from James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time.
Kenan's latest book, "Only The Dead Know Chapel Hill" tells the tale of an abduction of African-American boys from Chapel Hill. This story is filled with walking contradictions, for example: Jesus became Beelzebub but is repeatedly referenced by both of his names.

The emerging capability of networked devices to sense and interact with each other and their environments, also known as the Internet of Things (IoT), is bringing undeniable changes. According to a report by Gartner, between 2015 and 2020, the IoT devices will increase, globally, from nearly 5 billion to 25 billion devices. If you choose to believe Intel, that number is already at 15 billion and could reach 200 billion devices by2020. Whether we like the idea of it or not, the Internet of Things is going to be a huge part of all of our lives in the years and decades ahead.
El internet de las cosas cambia la forma de hacer marketing
You just figured out your marketing scheme, but you may need to rework it, already!
According to Content Marketing Institute, 86% of B2B marketers and 77% of B2C marketers are taking advantage of content marketing. And Curata found that the vast majority of marketers plan to boost their content marketing spend. But not all content marketing is created equal. While some is instrumental in fostering brand awareness, leads, and/ or sales, others fall short.
Social media marketing experts are expected to talk the talk and also walk the walk.
But, how would you know which ones would respond if you reach out to them?
We took the initiative to examine one of the most interesting parameters on social media – who are the social media experts that use twitter to engage on a personal level, and actually talk with people?
Good people to listen to and to build relationships with!
Many startup, small and medium business have limited capitalization and other resources particularly in terms of budget allocation for marketing. That is why it is vital for business owners to focus only on cost-effective marketing channels that make a positive impact on the bottom line.
Digital marketing is one such channel that deliver results and according to surveys, up to 40% have already achieved considerable savings from promotion and generating business leads. With doors opening like this, no wonder 28% of business owners are shifting their budgets from traditional to digital marketing strategies – and so should you starting with these 8 steps.
Facebook recently launched a new pilot program called "Instant Articles" that allows select publishers to upload articles directly to the NewsFeed.
LinkedIn has already built a publishing empire by allowing users to do something very similar, and sites like Medium and (to a lesser extent) Google+ are centered around exactly this kind of self-publishing.
This leaves dedicated company blogs in a strange place.
They are still necessary to act as a hub for all of your content and as a dedicated place where you control the design and benefit from the close association between your brand and the material you produce.
When you're looking for a new job, LinkedIn is a key part of the process, whether it's to discover new job opportunities, build professional relationships or promote yourself as a desirable candidate.
As with any part of the job hunting process, first impressions are so important, and – as the summary is at the top of your LinkedIn profile – it will be the first thing a recruiter or prospective employer will see.
This is why it's vital that your LinkedIn summary is engaging and makes the reader want to find out more about you, so it sparks the interest of the decision makers hiring for those dream roles.
With that in mind, here are some tips on making your LinkedIn summary stand out and sell yourself as the ideal candidate.
One of the primary rules of online marketing is to deliver content in the format that's most likely to resonate with your prospects; otherwise, you're throwing your advertising budget away. If you were certain that a particular format would drive more traffic and earn more shares, wouldn't you jump on it? So why isn't every marketer using video and visual storytelling to reach their target audience when the statistics show that it works? Here's all the proof you need.
Social media marketing is a game of give and take. As a marketer, it might feel like you're constantly giving – great blog content, witty tweets, alerts to breaking news, special offers, promotions. Indeed, you may even think from time to time that you are giving your very soul to your keen and hungry followers on social media.
But, those followers do give back, of course. They give back every time they click on one of your links, read your blog, like your Facebook post, or retweet one of your articles. And this is where the rewarding part of your job comes in – especially when some of those followers actually go one step further and leave a comment or even a question after a piece of content that you have lovingly provided for them.
Yes, when you start to garner some real, meaningful engagement with your following, then that's when you really start to take something away. It might only be that warm, fuzzy feeling inside your tummy as you realise that what you have just created has been useful for somebody out there – but, at the end of the day, that's exactly what you're doing this job for.
Content Marketing should be the fuel that drives all the key inbound marketing techniques across web, search,social and email marketing. But this isn't a secret -- content marketing is now a well-established technique and has become hyper-competitive.
t's a lot of pressure to stay active across every social media platform, and it can be hard to keep up with the latest trends and techniques.
But like it or not, social media is here to stay. And entrepreneurs, business people, marketers, and others with a message to get out are taking notice.
Why? Social media can be an enormously useful tool in the business world. You can boost brand recognition and loyalty, connect with potential or current customers, advertise products and promotions, share helpful or inspiring content, and more. Best of all, getting started on these platforms is free and just requires an investment of some time and creativity — which can pay off in big ways.
Thousands of people are estimated to have watched Floyd Mayweather defeat Manny Pacquiao via live-streaming Twitter app Periscope and rival Meerkat. The buzz was so great that Twitter CEO Dick Costolo declared Periscope "the winner" of the so-called "Fight of the Century."
Instagram active users are also active on an average of 4.83 of the top 10 social networks, with 97 percent of them active on Instagram parent Facebook, according to the latest research from GlobalWebIndex.
More than half (52%) of marketers say Facebook is the most important social network they use to grow and market their business, according to a recent report from Social Media Examiner.
The 2015 Social Media Marketing Industry Report was based on data from a survey of 3,720 marketers; 61% of survey participants focus primarily on attracting consumers (B2C), and the other 39% primarily target businesses (B2B).
Some 21% of respondents say LinkedIn is the most important social network they use to grow and market their business; Twitter ranks third (12%), followed by YouTube (4%) and Google+ (4%).
Do you have an Instagram account?
Want to get more engagement from your followers?
If you want to drive engagement on Instagram, there's plenty you can do to increase your company's visibility to get more likes, comments and followers.
This article shares seven tips for building an engaged Instagram following.
The web is forever evolving and digital businesses have more moving parts every day. As days go by, it can be hard to keep track and remember the events of the previous day, such as campaigns and website changes. Fortunately for businesses that use Google Analytics there's an easy solution: Annotations.
Annotations is a seldom-used feature, but it's a great way to advance your Google Analytics knowledge. It allows users with access to a Google Analytics profile to keep a record of the events of a website, anything that might "move the needle", so to speak. A detailed record will help employees and future employees recall previous events. This can also significantly reduce time spent digging for answers and causality in the data. The sooner you can learn how they work, the better.
The way we use the web is changing. The rise of social networks and apps have created closed silos where people are spending increasing amounts of time, at the expense of the open web.
Interesting article, social media is changing the way we find new content.
You can learn some of the best things about blogging by looking at the world's most popular blogs.
These blogs are popular for a reason. And they only get more popular as time goes on.
Periscope, the promising live-streaming app owned by Twitter, arrives on Android today. Like its cousin on iOS, which debuted two months ago to the day, Periscope for Android lets you watch and record broadcasts from your mobile device. Reaching 1 million users in its first 10 days, Periscope has so far proven a hit with celebrities and media personalities, but is also being used for acts of citizen journalism and pirating pay-per-views.
Periscope for Android opens to a list of current and recent broadcasts from the people you're following. (When you first open it, Periscope will suggest you follow everyone you're following on Twitter.) If nothing current is happening, you can swipe right to the next screen, which shows you broadcasts happening around the world.
You've heard of social media calendars before, but do you know what they are and how to use one?
The post Why You Need a Social Media Calendar and How to Create One by @neilpatel appeared first on Search Engine Journal.

How do you justify the ROI of your content marketing?

I just want to share my experience with my Wolverine 1000 mile. I got mine in cordovan 8 colour which is a great colour for me. I got mine in size 8.5 us which is half inch size down from my normal dress shoe size 9 us. The stitching is well insulated in the recess under the sole which give me a peace of mind. Straight from the box, the boots are comfortable and conform to my feet.
Regarding the size down, it will fit thin socks nicely but a thick sock will fit the feet snugly but still comfortable to wear. I am wearing it to office everyday and they look well with office dress. I have one question though. Do I have to size down on their Watson 1000 mile Oxford shoes from my normal dress shoes?
Thanks for the good reviews which help me decide the sizing for the boots.

Also, my 1000 Mile boots are going on four years of wear (including 3 Canadian winters) and are only now going to go in for a re-sole after the Vibram topy started separating at the toe and my feet started getting wet last winter. I'm curious to see how the leather sole held up (although I suspect there will be some hidden damage). I'm taking them to a well-reviewed yet unfamiliar local cobbler - wish me luck. I might toss up some of my "well-worn" pics.

Substrate preferences of a non-colonial kamptozoan, and its interactions with bryozoan hosts

Results of substrate preference analysis for Loxosomella nordgaardi Ryland (Kamptozoa: Loxosomatidae) found in association with various bryozoan species in the White Sea are presented. Local water-current patterns, for the first time observed and documented in bryozoan colonies inhabited by non-colonial entoprocts, indicate the direct dependence of kamptozoans' feeding activity on the bryozoan host. It is shown that because of the way their individuals integrate into the colony-wide water-current system both species may gain from this association. L. nordgaardi also demonstrates a strong preference for living bryozoan colonies relatively to other possible substrate types. It is thus probable that entoprocts are involved in specific ecological interactions with bryozoans.

Your Cart
You have in your cart
V2 Flavor Cartridges are the fuel for your V2 electronic cigarette. Each one provides 150 - 200 puffs. Our flavor cartridges are packed and foil sealed to maintain freshness and hygiene. Each pack has an expiration date, so you know you are receiving fresh cartridges every time. V2 Flavor Cartridges are compatible with all KR808-D1 threaded Electronic Cigarettes.
Whether you prefer menthol, classic tobacco brands, or even specialty designer flavors, V2 Cigs has a vapor flavor for you. Our popular flavors include: V2 Red (American Tobacco), Sahara (Turkish Tobacco), Congress (Refined Tobacco), V2 Menthol (Refreshing Mint), Peppermint (Sweet Mint), Green Tea Menthol, Grape, Cherry, Chocolate, Coffee, Vanilla and V2 Cola. V2 flavors are available in five nicotine strengths: 2.4% nicotine, 1.8% nicotine, 1.2% nicotine, 0.6% nicotine and 0% nicotine.
See the Flavor Descriptions Page for more details on each flavor.
The cartridge contains our proprietary solution of nicotine (or non-nicotine), water, food flavorings and propylene glycol (an FDA approved inhalant and food additive). See our downloads page for a complete list of ingredients.
Each V2 Flavor Cartridge contains a built in atomizer, so there is no cleaning or maintenance required. Every V2 flavor cartridge is filled with enough of our proprietary e-liquid to produce approximately 150 - 250 puffs (dependent upon deepness of puffs). To use your V2 electronic cigarette, simply screw a flavor cartridge on to the end of a V2 e-cigarette battery and puff on it like you would with a normal cigarette. If you are using a V2 Automatic Battery, when you draw air through the V2, the heating element will automatically activate and produce inhalable vapor containing your chosen strength of nicotine and selected flavoring compounds. With our Manual Batteries, simply hold down the small rubber button on the body of the e-cigarette to activate atomization.
You'll know when a cartridge is used up when the vapor becomes weak and has a burnt taste. Cartridges are disposable and can be discarded at this time. Just screw off the old cartridge and screw on a fresh one — it's that simple! Store your V2 Flavor Cartridges in a cool dry place. Cartridges should stay fresh for at least six months from purchase.

By far it is the best value I've found and the best product I've tried.
Posted by st1zz on 17th Jul 2014
I vape all day with these things, the flavor is the best by far that I have ever tasted closest to Marlboro red or light. I recommend V2 red for anyone who is craving that Marlboro flavor, if you are an Avid red smoker go with 1.8 a light go with
1.2 and an ultra light go with .6!
Posted by Tiffany on 25th Jun 2014
This the the best value if you don't want to fill your own liquid. I recommend red and Sahara. I go through a cart every 2 days. This is the best.
Posted by Walter S. on 23rd May 2014
Best way to buy flavor carts at a little over $1 ea. I love the V2 Red.
Posted by Lindsey on 9th May 2014
I did my research when I decided to try e-cigs and I'm so glad I stumbled upon v2. I've been using V2 for over 2 years after trying dozens of other kinds. The peppermint flavor cartridge is my favorite.
Posted by Jessica on 2nd May 2014
I like this package because it saves me money and time. I love V2 and I have been vaping for almost four years.
Posted by Dana on 29th Apr 2014
I didn't think I'd enjoy any of the non tobacco flavored cartridges, but on a whim, I ordered a 5 pack of the Vanilla just to try it. I loved it! The Vanilla gives a great throat hit with a really enjoyable after taste.
I just ordered an 80 pack today!
My advice is be open minded and try different flavors.
Posted by Steve on 29th Apr 2014
In my opinion, the 80 pack is the only way to buy! It's a great price when you buy in bulk and you know you are going to use them, so why pay more buying the lesser quantity? Vaping doesn't have to be expensive and this 80 pack is why!
Posted by Troy2K14 on 28th Apr 2014
Vanilla, Peppermint and Coffee are the best! But I also like grape, chocolate and Red. Oh and cherry is good too! They all taste better than tobacco!
Posted by Troy2K14 on 28th Apr 2014
I find the 80 pack the best value for me. It last me nearly 3 months. When you think about how much you save by vaping V2 E-Cigs at on average less than 2 dollars per cartridge (1 pack of cigs) vs. Brand name cigs at 7-8 dollars per pack, you are saving a lot of money each month!

When you receive these medicines, you will not be aware of what is happening around you.You will receive general anesthesia in a hospital or outpatient office. Most times, a doctor called an anesthesiologist will put you to sleep. Sometimes, a certified registered nurse anesthetist will take care of you.The doctor will give you medication into your vein. You may be asked to breathe in (inhale) a special gas through a mask. Once you are asleep, the doctor may insert a tube into your windpipe (trachea) to help you breathe and protect your lungs.You will be watched very closely while you are asleep. Your blood pressure, pulse, and breathing will be monitored. The doctor or nurse taking care of you can change how deeply asleep you are during the surgery.You will not move, feel any pain, or have any memories of the procedure because of this medicine.I Would Like to Learn About:Expand All Collapse All Why the Procedure Is Performed General anesthesia is a safe way to stay asleep and pain-free during procedures that would:Be too painful Take a long time Affect your ability to breathe Make you uncomfortable Cause too much anxietyYou may also be able to have conscious sedation for your procedure.

This includes asking you about any allergies, health conditions, medications, and history of anesthesia. Several days before surgery, you may be asked to stop taking aspirin, ibuprofen, warfarin (Coumadin), and any other drugs that make it hard for your blood to clot. Ask your doctor which drugs you should still take on the day of your surgery. Always try to stop smoking. Your doctor can help.On the day of your surgery:You will usually be asked not to drink or eat anything after midnight the night before the surgery. This is to prevent you from vomiting while you are under anesthesia. Vomiting during anesthesia can be dangerous. Take the drugs your doctor told you to take with a small sip of water. Your doctor or nurse will tell you when to arrive. After the Procedure You will wake up tired and groggy in the recovery or operating room. You may also feel sick to your stomach, and have a dry mouth, sore throat, or feel cold or restless until the anesthesia wears off. Your nurse will monitor these side effects. They will wear off, but it may take a few hours. Sometimes nausea and vomiting can be treated with other medicines.Follow your doctor's recommendations while you recover and care for your surgical wound.

There are certainly shifts in the market for KTM and at the end of the day they need to make money rather than pander to the needs of a relitively small Rally market.
Whilst the Dakar undoubtedly sells off road bikes (not just 450 RRs) it is only one (very expensive) race a year, the FIM World Cross Country Championship gets virtually no media coverage by comparison. Ultimately it is all about media value, you can bet that the bean counters at Mattighofen have done the sums comparing Dakar v MX v Moto3.
Let's wait and see what 2013 brings, looks like it could be an interesting year!

Anthony Westbury: After-school program could help stem the violence in Fort Pierce
What: 2012 annual Midnight Musical, a gospel music concert
When: 7 p.m. Dec. 29
Where: St. Peter's Missionary Baptist Church, 4250 38th Ave., Vero Beach
Sponsorships: 772-332-8229
Contact: Joe Jenkins at 772-985-7184
The community is behind it. So are the Sheriff's Office and the School District. Now all radio personality "Jumpin' Joe" Jenkins has to do is raise a few more dollars to get his dream off the ground.
Jenkins has lived in the Sheraton Plaza area of northwest Fort Pierce most of his life. He's long been concerned about the violence and shootings that have plagued the city. It was the near-fatal March shooting of Jason Rainey, 34, in Sheraton Plaza that really brought it all home for Jenkins.
"I grew up in the Harmony Heights neighborhood in the early 1970s," Jenkins said, adding that one of his nieces was shot to death in 1990. "Folks there are afraid, they're scared for their children. Once, it was a decent neighborhood, but these days people rarely go outside or talk to each other (because of the violence on the streets).
"Most parents have to work and their kids are left at home after school. They get into bad habits because there's nothing else for them to do."
Jenkins is trying to drum up financial support for an after-school program that will allow children to get their homework done and receive positive adult guidance.
Jenkins thought the lightly used Capt. Pat N. Duval Sheriff's Community Substation on Juanita Avenue would make an ideal location.
The building is named after Patrick Duval, now 92, the first African-American deputy to be hired by the Sheriff's Office. Duval, a neighbor of Jenkins', is enthusiastic about the proposed new use for the building.
"We need to focus on children," he said in a March 15 story. "We have too many children raising children in single-parent homes."
Sheriff Ken Mascara has embraced the new use for the substation, which is used intermittently by deputies writing up reports.
"The office is very supportive of this," said Chief Deputy Garry Wilson. "We recognize the need for this in Sheraton Plaza. It's a good use for the substation. We had a really good summer program there this year. We're trying to do all we can to help Joe bring this idea to fruition."
To that end, the Sheriff's Office will donate five computers to Jenkins' program.
Jenkins even has a model teaching program formerly developed by the Rev. Bob Coleman of Goodwill Presbyterian Church on 29th Street. He's received clearance from the St. Lucie County School District to gain direct computer access to student homework assignments and FCAT progress.
"I think it can evolve into something much more" than just an after-school "baby-sitting" service, Jenkins said. "I envision expanding into health care classes, nutritional information, school clothing drives and so on." He also wants to introduce students to as many adult male role models as possible, so deputies and others will be encouraged to take part in mentoring programs.
"My main goal is to get this community to believe in itself again. Right now, everyone's just whistling in the wind. There are other after-school programs in Fort Pierce, but they serve the whole city. Many are too far away from where the kids live. This would give us something right in the neighborhood.
"There are a lot of parents waiting for this; they want it bad."
Nazyle Rios is one of them. The 70-year-old grandmother of two teenage boys, 13 and 15, can't wait.
"I work hard," said the 25-year veteran at the Tropicana juice processing plant on Midway Road. "A lot of grandmas and grandpas are raising their grandkids just like me, and they have to work. When the children get out of school, there's no adult at home to watch them. We've never had anything like it in Sheraton Plaza in the 40 years I've lived here."
Now the really hard part begins — raising the money. Even though Jenkins envisions the program being run largely by volunteers, there will be two paid staff members.
He recently discovered one more bill that needs to be paid before he can open the center after the first of the year. He has to come up with a $700 premium for a $1 million liability insurance policy.
He hopes to kick off fundraising Dec. 29, when some of the proceeds of the 2012 annual Midnight Musical in Vero Beach will go toward the program.
Jenkins, who works for WIRA 1400 AM and sister station WFLM 104.7 The Flame, has been prominent in local radio for 22 years.
"If I didn't believe I could make a difference for my community," he said, "I wouldn't be doing this. I live a mile from the center of Sheraton Plaza, so there's a personal commitment. I want to touch the community and help it believe in itself again."

BRAIN MAXIMA REVIEW- Help A Loved One With Alzheimer's
I never knew Alzheimer's would one day become part and parcel of my life when my grandmother was diagnosed with the condition. I lost my parents in a car accident and she was the one who raised me. I love her so much that hearing the doctor mention the name of this disease instilled fear in me .
Cell Power Review - Lose Weight Without Exercise
I was very obese and used to have a very bad habit of snacking constantly. The food I consumed mostly consisted of fast food and was high in salt. I did not have the time to cook my meals and this led to me putting on more and more calories. I also lost confidence when I started to criticize my looks. A painful realization was when I walked into a garment store and I could not find the right shirt size and this lowered my morale even further. My friend took me to a doctor who introduced me to Cell Power. It is not a medicine but it is a supplement that you have to add to water and drink as directed. Oxygen is needed in the body to burn fat and with the aid of this supplement I successfully managed to shed off the extra flab gradually.
