LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – ConAgra Foods Inc., plans to close an Odom's Tennessee Pride processing plant in late spring 2013, according to the Associated Press. More than 200 people work at the plant.
ConAgra bought Odom's in May. The transaction included Odom's headquarters in Madison, Tenn., and facilities in Little Rock and Dickson, Tenn. Odom's has annual sales of $190 million. ConAgra said the facilities in Tennessee would remain open.
Odom's products were sold in the south, from Florida to Virginia, in the Midwest, and as far west as Arizona. The company makes frozen and refrigerated breakfast sandwiches and sausage, and is the second-largest producer of frozen breakfast sandwiches in the United States.

New Research Links Neonicotinoid Pesticides to Monarch Butterfly Declines
By Jonathan Latham, PhD
USDA researchers have identified the neonicotinoid insecticide clothianidin as a likely contributor to monarch butterfly declines in North America. The USDA research is published in the journal Science of Nature and was published online on April 3rd (Pecenka and Lundgren 2015). (ISN has had hacking problems, again.

U.S.: NYSE USD33.38 -0.97 -2.8238719068413394% /Date(1435611794514-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1941800 AFTER HOURS USD33.38 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 20841 P/E Ratio 32.80589680589681 Market Cap 13797225975.5463 Dividend Yield 1.1983223487118035% Rev. per Employee 92005 More quote details and news » responded by hiking prices as much as 40%. Shoppers paid up; a familiar brand of underpants or bras, for those who are running low, is always a budget priority.
Cotton costs now have subsided, but Hanes (ticker: HBI) has maintained its pricing power by moving well beyond tighty-whities to add features for which its customers are willing to pay a premium. These include tagless underpants with a cotton/polyester mix ("Comfortblend") that doesn't ride up, moisture-wicking fabrics for gym-goers, and simplified sizing and flexible fits for bras.
The up-market move has given some shoppers pause. Overall revenues last quarter slipped 3% versus a year earlier, Hanes said Tuesday. But operating profit exploded to $85 million from less than $11 million and has set into motion a virtuous cycle for shareholders. Free cash flow is surging. The company is paying down debt, saving on interest payments and further bolstering earnings. It recently introduced a dividend. Shares have surged more than 35% this year, versus an 11% rise for the Standard & Poor's 500 index.
Hanes, with a market value of $4.8 billion, trades now at 14 times this year's earnings forecast, on par with the broad market, but it could move 20% higher in a year as the company comes to more closely resemble the consumer-staples royalty investors are piling into for safety and income: companies like General Mills at 18 times earnings and Procter & Gamble at 19. The new dividend should consume only some 20% of earnings over the next year. The typical dividend-payer in the S&P 500 shells out 33%, suggesting Hanes has plenty of room for payment increases. The company's free cash yield, the wellspring from which dividends come, is over 8%, based on the midpoint of management's guidance for this year's free cash flow. That dwarfs its 1.6% dividend yield.
Without its own big base of stores, Hanes is dependent on retailers for favorable placement of its wares. But its odds improve as those wares grow more lucrative for all who sell them.

Wall Street expects earnings per share for Hanes to reach $3.45 this year, a 32% increase. Next year's forecast calls for a 16% rise. With that growth, if the stock's price-to-earnings ratio nudges closer to 15 over the next year, stockholders should secure a 20% gain.
Investors should also keep watch for the stock market's next Hanes-type opportunities: companies that are turning rising profit margins and plentiful free cash and bigger perks for stockholders.

Its shares have lagged well behind the broad market over the past year, and a quarterly earnings miss announced Friday didn't help, but there are signs of improvement. This past week, Barnes completed the sale of its supplies distribution business in North America, which had been a drag on profit margins and growth. It will use the proceeds to reduce debt, buy back stock, and invest in thriving business units. In its most recent quarter, adjusted operating margin expanded by 2.5 percentage points to 13.5%. Operating cash flow jumped to $17.7 million from $6.3 million. Shares go for 14 times earnings.

Shares are up about 20% this year. They remain a good deal at 14 times earnings. Gap's market share in North America rose last year but stands at just 3.9%, leaving plenty of room for gains, according to Jefferies, which calls the stock a top pick. Overseas, market share is a small fraction of 1%; the company plans to franchise Old Navy stores in certain markets beginning next year. Last quarter, Gap reported a 66% jump in earnings per share on 10% higher sales. Jefferies estimates that higher sales of full-price merchandise will gradually raise Gap's operating margins to 13.7% by 2015, from 9.9% last year. That should provide plenty of cash for Gap to continue buying back its stock.

Yet the stock is up 20% this year. One reason is that an agreement with Miller to share brewing resources is saving more than $750 million a year, of which Molson Coors gets 42%, according to Morningstar. Management expects free cash flow to total $700 million this year, give or take. That's 7.5% of the company's recent market value, making its 2.5% dividend yield seem not only safe but too slim. Goldman Sachs upgraded the stock to a Buy rating earlier this month, noting that improving employment and new product introductions could drive better than expected earnings, and calling Molson Coors one of the most underloved consumer-staples stocks. Shares go for less than 13 times earnings.

(News.com.au) CAPTURED by Islamic State militants while fleeing the Northern Iraqi village of Tel Qassab last August, a young Yazidi woman has revealed how she escaped "marriage" to Sydney extremist and Terror Nine member Khaled Sharrouf.
Nineteen year-old "Kaleela", whose real name cannot be disclosed for legal and security reasons, was initially held in a three-storey house in the Islamic State stronghold of Mosul, before being taken to the terrorist's hideaway in Syria.
In a witness testimony to Iraqi lawyers she said, "On the first floor was a group of Yazidi women and girls, and on the second were the princes of ISIS. We [girls] stayed in that building for fifteen days, where we were kept drugged.
Victory At Last As Whistleblower Melanie Shaw Escapes Jail
12 December 2014
(Neon Nettle) A judge yesterday imposed a three-year community order with supervision on Beechwood Children's Home whistleblower and abuse survivor, Melanie Shaw, from Sherwood in Nottingham, England.
The sentence, for starting a shed fire and throwing paint on a neighbour's home, came as a welcome surprise to supporters lining the gallery at Nottingham Crown Court. Some, having observed irregularities in the October trial, had been convinced of a secret agenda to silence the witness to a high ranking paedophile ring.
For Melanie Shaw, who is still fighting to clear her name through the High Court, it was the best result she could have hoped for, except for one unpalatable condition.

Paedophile Ring Whistleblower Melanie Shaw Sentenced Without Evidence
(Neon Nettle) The lay advocate, who has been a regular visitor to the prison and spent 24 hours a day with Melanie over the fourteen day bail period, said: "The street that Melanie lives on had been blighted by crimes which were never investigated. I just think Melanie is being targeted to be kept captive, and by keeping her captive their main aim is to keep under wraps everything she knows."

[IMAGE]Niantic-Bus-001-2.jpg[/IMAGE]Last week, First Transit-managed Estuary Transit District in Centerbrook, Conn., received the Rural System of the Year award at this year's Community Transportation Association Expo in Indianapolis.
The Community of Transportation Association of America (CTAA), celebrating its 25-year anniversary, organized the event. This award is given each year to the transportation agency that provides service in an urban area with a population of less than 50,000. The award is given to a transit operation that has presented innovative and creative services within the community and has displayed exceptional responsiveness to its customers' and community needs.
"This is a great honor and we are very proud to have received this award," said Joe Comerford, executive director, Estuary Transit District/First Transit. "This was a group effort and I greatly appreciate the work my staff has done over the years to achieve this recognition."
First Transit has managed fixed-route and paratransit service for the organization since January of 2009.
The Flatiron Flyer buses, which were supplied by MCI and can carry 57 passengers each, are specially branded with a unique blue-and-sunrise-orange paint scheme designed by RTD and a U.S. 36 corridor stakeholder group.
The Hadley mirror business will remain in Elkhart, Ind., but will relocate from the Hadley site to its own production facility over the next few months. The management, engineering, customer service, administrative and production personnel of the Hadley mirror business will remain with the business and transition to Safe Fleet.
Each year, more and more people look forward to BusCon as a chance to network, learn about new trends and technology, and gain the tools that are necessary to revitalize the way they tackle their own operations.
The countdown clocks were developed in part to address concerns about the overall accessibility of MTA's Bus Time system, which sends wait-time information to riders via text message, a QR code scan, or over a web site.
The report argues that the city should be pushing for the "gold standard" of BRT. That would include a control station that monitors buses and ensures they come at well-spaced intervals and enclosed stops that shelter customers.

text: Politics PoliticsAsiaUnited States Allison Jackson on Apr 10, 2014 @ 5:15 PMApr 10, 2014 @ 5:15 PM PublishedMongolia gives Hagel a horse — but he leaves it behindUS Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel is presented with a horse by his Mongolian counterpart, Defense Minister Bat-Erdene Dashdemberel, in the Mongolian capital of Ulaanbaatar on April 10, 2014.Political gift giving is as old as politics itself.Sometimes the presents are useful, like the two Idaho potatoes US Secretary of State John Kerry gave to his Russian counterpart, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, earlier this year.At other times they are just plain weird, such as the 500 cases of tinned pineapples Australia sent to the future Queen Elizabeth II and Duke of Edinburgh for their wedding in 1947.So, given that context, US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel probably didn't bat an eyelid when he was presented with a horse by his Mongolian counterpart during a visit to the landlocked country on Thursday — only the second by a US defense secretary. "It's a handsome horse," Hagel said diplomatically as he inspected the nine-year-old dirty blonde horse, which he promptly named Shamrock after his Nebraska high school mascot."Unfortunately, I will have to leave Shamrock here for the time being."Hagel is not the first American politician to receive a Mongolian horse — a traditional gift in the former Soviet client state — and then leave it behind.More from Globalpost: Weird stuff world leaders give each otherHis predecessor, Donald Rumsfeld, was honored with a black-maned gelding during a visit to the impoverished country in 2005. Rumsfeld named the horse Montana, but that was as close as he ever got to US soil. But leaving a gift behind is surely less offensive than stealing it.Russian President Vladimir Putin was accused of nicking a diamond-encrusted Super Bowl ring from New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft during a 2005 meeting in St. Petersburg. Putin denied taking the ring, but offered to make Kraft a replica.

Hulu Owners Looking to Finalize Deal Within Two Weeks (Report)
The entertainment companies behind the online video site received several binding bids.
The current owners of online video destination Hulu will sort through binding bids received last week and hope to finalize a deal in the next week or two, the Wall Street Journal reported.
One person familiar with the sales process told The Hollywood Reporter that a decision and announcement could come late this week, but that timing depended partly on finalizing content deals between the current owners and the winning bidder.
STORY: Hulu's Final 3 Bidders: Analyzing the Pros and Cons of Each
Representatives for Hulu and its various suitors declined to comment on details of the bids or the process late Monday.
Satellite TV giant DirecTV, AT&T and Peter Chernin's Chernin Group and THR owner Guggenheim Digital Media had all submitted binding bids by Friday, sources confirmed. The Journal, citing sources, reported that private equity firm KKR had joined the Guggenheim bid.
Time Warner Cable had previously offered to take a stake in Hulu, but it wasn't clear if it remained in the running.
Hulu's current owners are Rupert Murdoch's 21st Century Fox, Walt Disney and Comcast Corp.

JapangoRead MoreDrawing upon more than 20 years of experience, Japango owner and executive chef Kevin Lee has created one of the most thorough—and certainly one of the most creative—sushi menus you'll find in all of Florida. The signature rolls are delightfully whimsical; take the chicken caesar salad roll, for example, which Lee inexplicably tops with bacon bits and fried plantains. If that's not wild enough for you, you can always try a smoked salmon roll sweetened with mango and crème fraîche. In addition to these, Japango's menu features sashimi entrees, tataki, and low-carb rolls wrapped in cucumber.7367 Florida 7Parkland, FL US

Aviator Dave Corey of Bennington has been flying airplanes for 45 years. As a skilled pilot and businessman, Corey expanded his passion for aviation into a successful Vermont-based airfreight operation, called AirNow. The cargo carrier operates out of Bennington's busy William H. Morse State Airport. Aside from normal business operations, AirNow, in partnership with Evangelistic World Outreach, is also doing good things, quietly, behind the scenes-it has been flying vital humanitarian relief missions to earthquake victims in Haiti. But that's just the sort of thing that a man and aviator like Corey responds to without any prompting.
This month, Corey flew his personal, record-setting experimental Questair Venture aircraft to the Middlebury State Airport. He made a special visit to the Addison County airport to drop in on a local pilot friend.
Corey's unusual aircraft holds the National Aeronautical Association's world record for a single-engine propeller flight between Pacific and Atlantic coasts-it took the pilot a mere 7 hours, non-stop, to fly from San Diego, Calif. to Palm Beach, Fla. Corey accomplished the feat-solo-back in 2008.
Only 30 such experimental Venture aircraft exist in the world, according to Corey, and only 20 are flying. Legendary aircraft designer Jim Griswold designed the Venture for speed. However, its popularity was less than spectacular; now the Venture has become a very rare bird that turns heads wherever it touches down.
Using technology derived from the speedy Piper Malibu, the Venture is a bit of an ugly duckling at first glance, looking a tad aerodynamically challenged. But looks are deceiving; in fact, the planes stubby look is its great advantage in the air.
First launched in 1987, the experimental Venture series are built of all-metal, pre-formed multi-curvature panels. The plane has jet fighter-like tricycle retractable land gear, too, which-when tucked up inside the fuselage-help the plane slip through stubborn air molecules. Corey's Venture has an American-made Continental 300 hp powerplant. And while the wings are 25 feet long, the fuselage is only 12 feet long, an unusual wing-to-body ratio, it is a bird built for speed.

Should stay open straight through the day for more service etc

Australia Travel Guide
Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park has sandstone and water vistas merge to form a spectacular landscape. Relics of Aboriginal life are preserved with artifacts including rock paintings, middens and cave art. The Royal Botanic Gardens is one of the finest in the world. The gardens feature a global selection of plantings and specific Australian gardens. In addition to the landscape features, the Observatory offers nighttime tours of constellations and the Ian Potter Foundation Children's Garden, a whimsical, child-scaled area that invites kids to explore their natural surroundings. The Sydney Opera House, arguably the most recognizable icon of Australia, holds six auditoriums where dance, concerts, opera and theater are staged. A bar and restaurant are attached nearby, so visitors can take a break and enjoy the view of the Harbor Bridge.
St. Kilda Foreshore features lively promenades. The breakwater near the pier was built in the '50s as a safe harbor for boats competing in the Olympic Games. Today, it is home to a colony of penguins that have, incredibly, chosen the city's most crowded suburb in which to reside. Bondi Beach is quintessential Sydney, and one of the best things to do in Australia. Its bright blue waters and perfect waves are ideal for local surfers and beachgoers looking to cool off. Finally, head up to Mark's Park for a view of the beach from the cliffs nearby.
Every Saturday, Sydney's fashionistas make a beeline for this sprawling collection of market stalls, known for showcasing the work of up-and-coming designers.
From the tip of the peninsula, you can see black wallabies, blue-winged parrots, and long-nosed bandicoots.
Near the boardwalk, popular Magnums has its own party formula: a beer garden with live music, cheap drinks, mechanical surfboard riding, jelly wrestling, and...you get the idea.
Nothing says family vacation like a spin in the Cage of Death. At this reptile-themed spot, thrill-seekers can ogle massive crocodiles up close from behind an acrylic barrier, submerged in a saltwater croc tank.
This Darlinghurst neighborhood gallery has dedicated itself to promoting the provocative and edgy works of artists, both well-established and up-and-coming, within the Contemporary art form.
Must-try: 2005 Block 6 Shiraz.
The modern gallery represents top Western Australian artists, including Peggy Patrick and Phyllis Thomas.
Officially christened in 2005, this stretch along the Tasman Sea is part of a government effort to redirect leisure travelers south of Sydney onto a coastal highway.
The Transport Hotel's Taxi Dining Room may get top honors from the press, but its rooftop terrace, Transit Lounge Garden, is what delivers, with killer drinks and views to die for.
Top tip: In Hobart, Tasmania, she suggests a visit to the Salamanca market, where more than 300 producers peddle artisanal foods. Years as agent: 32. Other specialties: Culinary tours, Australia, New Zealand.
Take a family-designed adventure to Australia with Abercrombie & Kent's Family Holidays. With meals and excursions for children in mind, the Outback Adventure takes families to Sydney, the Outback, and the sacred sandstone rock the Aborigines call Uluru.
Named for Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas, you can browse used books, settle into a comfy couch, or munch on "modern Australian cuisine" like mushroom and leek soup or sweet soy chicken with broccoli; there's no menu, just a changing list of a dozen specials.

Do Big Things.
Hard to believe that when it started in 1999, Cornerstone OnDemand was nothing more than
an idea and a whiteboard. Today, that simple idea has grown into a billion dollar
global technology company that's changing the way the world works.
Being a Cornerstar
We think that's pretty cool. And we think it's important, because
Meet the people at Cornerstone
"If terabytes of data doesn't excite you
I don't know what will."
Oren Goldfinger, Technology
"There's not a single person here who I wouldn't love
to sit down and have a beer with."
Elvis Ha, Products
"I am constantly being challenged to learn and grow."
Jamie Stivala, Talent & Administration
9 reasons why you
want to work here
We do. We're always on the lookout for new, capable people who can
help us achieve our goal. So if you want to work for a friendly,
global and innovative company, we'd love to meet you.
While Cornerstone is the fastest-growing SaaS technology company and the largest independent cloud-based business in the world, there are still some people and countries on planet Earth who aren't yet using our software. We need your help to get them signed up, live and happy!
We place great value on development and believe everyone can achieve their career dreams when provided with the opportunity to stretch beyond what seems possible. We believe in hiring smart people and challenging them with lots of responsibility early on. It's not easy, but training for the Olympics isn't easy either. We know that if you want to compete, you need world-class training and support every day. That's how we work.
Cornerstars enjoy 100% paid healthcare premiums for top-tier medical plans,* stock options, paid vacation, paid sabbaticals, and paid training and education. Among benefits we do not currently provide (but are considering): gold and diamond teeth grills for all employees, camera sunglasses, company-issued jetpacks, and unicorn robots (to borrow, not own).
Empowering our global team is our top priority. We see obstacles as challenges we haven't yet had the chance to address. We encourage you to imagine the impossible, challenge conventional thinking and take risks that push the limits of possibility on your path to greatness. Clarification -- by "risks" we mean "work risks" risks. Not "getting in a cage with a tiger, wearing a meat suit" risks. We don't encourage you to do that stuff.
Foosball. Ping Pong. Basketball. Kickball. Karaoke. Play at work or join one of our teams. And if you are feeling brave and adventurous, take on our own Karaoke Queen in a vocal fight to the death!
Cornerstars are encouraged to engage in a healthy and active lifestyle and enjoy activities outside of work with their families and friends. So go to that little league game or dance recital, or attend that hot yoga class to balance your Chi. Then get back to work! (Just kidding. Well, sort of.)
We believe well-fed Cornerstars are happy and productive Cornerstars, so we stock our café with an endless supply of bagels, fresh fruit, snacks (both healthy and trashy) and of course…energy drinks. And there's ice-cold beer in the fridge. We tend not to drink it in the morning, though.
We care deeply about giving back to the community, engaging our team in local service projects and supporting Cornerstars' efforts to raise money for the causes they're passionate about. And our Foundation is transforming the way people help people, partnering with non-profits across the globe, helping them empower and develop their talent.
We're working with some of the biggest companies and brands in the world, empowering their people and changing the world at work. Sooner or later, a lot of the people you know will be using Cornerstone at work, if they're not already.
The culture of Cornerstone
Our mission is to empower people, businesses and communities. A culture created less by what we do and more by who we are. When people are asked to describe the team, the answer is always the same: smart, cool, dependable and visionary.
It doesn't take long to realize that people who work here are very, very smart. It's the reason we consistently outperform and constantly evolve. Nobody is ignored and ideas are welcome at all times. One consequence is that we move dynamically. If someone has a good idea, we implement it. Complex problems can be broken down and solved through team collaboration. It's an environment where you can be challenged, have an opportunity to learn, develop your skills and be very successful.
To us, cool is someone you'd want to have a beer (or meal) with; someone who is interesting and fun. We have people who would be considered cool in any group, at every age. We also have people who were not necessarily part of the popular crowd in their high school, but are definitely well-rounded, self-confident, creative and interesting.
We believe the most dependable people are those who are willing to take initiative and are self-empowered. The expectation of our team is to make our clients successful, so we have to have people who can be depended upon. People who are responsive, proactive, reliable and able to provide exceptional service while earning the trust and respect of both our clients and our teammates.
To continue our success in leading the market with state-of-the-art solutions, we must be innovative and resourceful. Capable not simply of thinking outside of the box but of actually redesigning the scope and scale of the box itself.

P1 Photo of the Week: That thing got a hemi?
(PoliceOne Image)
This week's photo of the week comes from Sgt. Richard Garner of the Rio Blanco County Sheriff's Office in rugged Northwest Colorado. Pictured is Garner's 2011 Dodge Power wagon. He writes, "The county I work in is approximately 3200 square miles (larger than Delaware and Rhode Island combined) and our deputies patrol in single man units assigned to either the west or east end of the county.
"The local state troopers brag about having a 'Hemi.' Well so do I. I may not be as fast as a Charger, but I can get places a Charger never dreamed of going."

Item Description: Harper Collins, London, 2000. Hard Cover. Book Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Alan Lee (illustrator). First Thus. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, by J.R.R. Tolkien. Published by Harper Collins in 2000, this set takes the 1997 Alan Lee illustrated edition of the Hobbit and the 1991 Alan Lee illustrated edition of The Lord of the Rings, and releases them together in their own publishers slipcase. The slipcase features one scene from each book, and is accented by a gold border on the top and bottom edge that features the runic script as found on the dustjackets. The slipcase has a couple of bumped corners, no splits to the seams as are common. As the Hobbit is a wider book, the slipcase has an offset spacer to allow both books to fit the box evenly. The Hobbit is the 1997 edition, 5th impression, released to commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of the original publication. The dustwrapper was modified to match The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion illustrated editions. Most of the changes are to the text on the spine, but small changes were also made to the runic border. This one also features a price on the inner flap which is an indication that you own a later, modified edition. A full 22 color illustrations, and 38 pencil drawings, beautifully illustrated edition by Alan Lee. The Lord of the Rings is the 1991 edition, 12th impression, produced to commemorate the centenary of Tolkien's birth. The dustwrapper is distinctive to some others as it has the title in a black oval shape, a design introduced during the 11th impression, and is also priced on the front flap. There are 50 full color illustrations by Alan Lee, and you can see how his ideas impacted the movies directed by Peter Jackson. A beautifully illustrated set, not available to the US market, it makes a wonderful slipcased set for the Tolkien Collector. Digital photo's available, inquire if interested. Other Tolkien books available, include both the UK and US editions, original cloth bindings, custom fine bindings, and Signed/Numbered/Limited Editions. Near Fine / Near Fine.

I was a little apprehensive when i booked this hotel - it was a bit of a last minute decision, and there were not masses of photographs on their website. However, i went with the tripadvisor reviews and was not disappointed! We booked a villa with plunge pool and the place was fantastic (Villa 16). It was massive (had three bedrooms), a beautiful kitchen and a gorgeous little garden with a pool. Our typical day involved cooking breakfast together at home (but the breakfasts at the beach restaurant are really good), sitting in our garden enjoying the morning sun, and then heading to the beach in the afternoon for lunch and some beach fun! The backyards are almost completely private which is nice if you are on a romantic vacation, and the plunge pools are just the right size to jump in and take a dip. The beach, although not the white sand and turquoise waters one expects from the caribbean, is lovely and the kiteboarding looked to be a lot of fun.
The staff were fantastic - gracious and so so helpful. We had hired a rental car which unfortunately got a flat tire - and one of the staff at the hotel (and i am ashamed to admit i forgot his name) took the tire to the garage for us to get it fixed! We had valentines dinner at the hotel's formal restaurant which was delicious - especially for island food.
We will be sure to return - we will probably bring our parents as this is a great place for families as you can vacation together without being on top of one another. I highly recommend and cannot wait to go back!

Well I thought I'd give my opinion on the new GS that will occur tomorrow and I'm not really happy about them. Unions will be gone which sucks because if it weren't for unions, I wouldn't be here much. I mean I like to help out the best I can and I had fun posting with some of you guys. You guys have been such good friends (you know who you are :) ) and it's sad that all those posts and fun times won't happen here anymore.
I know some users may say that unions aren't important anyway, well they're wrong because I invested plenty of time (no matter how "pointless" it may seem to them) and I met some cool people. I even remember the first union I posted in, that was back when I had no idea what a forum was until I started getting the hang of it.
As for other changes, I don't like them either like not being able to have a gif signature anymore, it has to be a certain size, avatars also have to be a certain size, etc.
I personally think GameSpot might just become the new GameTrailers, I used to go there a lot back then but now with their stupid unnecessary changes, I been hearing that the site is a ghost town. There are still users I am sure but definitely not as much.
Well guys I guess I don't have much else to say, there is a chance I might not come back due to these changes. If you want to stay in touch with me, here are my gaming ID's:
Steam: Fataledge
Xbox: Meta Knight X12
Hopefully I'll still see some of you around in other forums like on the Zetaboards for some unions that decided to make those. You guys been awesome, take care! :)

Employee of the month for May 2015 is Fran Waugh.
Fran was nominated by a co-worker who stated, "Fran is one of the strong pieces of the main frame of operations and security for CNB Bank. Fran puts in countless hours working on special projects that often go unrecognized. She works hard and likes things done properly, but at the same time likes to have fun with her work. After all, if she didn't she would not be our Fran-Bot or FRAN the Kasasa idol!"
