USA Abuse Of Painkillers Reaches Epidemic Levels

Transcript by http://www.newsy.com
Painkiller overdoses have exploded in the last decade. A new report from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention says prescription pain medication kills more people each year than heroine and cocaine combined.
"Prescription painkiller overdoses killed nearly 15,000 people in the US in 2008. This is more than 3 times the 4,000 people killed by these drugs in 1999. ... Nearly half a million emergency department visits in 2009 were due to people misusing or abusing prescription painkillers."
The jump in deaths have been attributed to a surge in the number of narcotic painkillers prescribed every year, the most comm being Vicodin, OxyContin and Codeine.
KTLA spoke with an addiction therapist who says its easy for drug consumption to escalate after taking painkillers for legitimate reasons.
JOHN TSILIMPARIS: "It makes you feel better psychologically. It takes your stress away. It helps your depression. Things that you were worried about throughout the day are pretty much gone. So people will go back to using it."
OLGA OSPINA: "After a while they become not only dependent on the painkiller, they also develop a tolerance for it. Which means they might go from taking just two to three a day to 30 pills a day just to get the same effect. And if they mix with other drugs the effect could be especially dangerous."
And CBS spoke with a police chief who says law enforcement alone cannot deal with this rising trend.
SCOTT SALLY: We cannot continually detox and house these people in jail. Jail is not a place for an addict. But, here we are. ... The analogy I use is like standing on the beach with a tsunami rolling in on you. You may think that you can combat it, but it's going to take you with it. It's huge."
The government recently took steps to curb the rise of pill mills and doctor shopping. The Wall Street Journal Reports:
"Federal government has a big push underway to have the states come and set up a data base so that all the pharmacies all the doctors are talking to each other. So in other words, one person can't go to multiple doctors and rack up several prescriptions to get a whole bunch of Vicodin. There's no system right now that says hey Joe Smith, this is his fifth prescription for Vicodin this month."
But government regulations alone cannot curb the epidemic. ABC spoke with a doctor who said physicians need to better educated their patients about the effects and risks of prescription painkillers
HOWARD NEARMAN: "Physicians certainly need to be aware of the study so that they know that the dangers are real. And I think the patients need to be educated as well. When we prescribe this, when you skip a dose, don't double up the next time. You need to be aware that there are other medications that you may have in your medicine cabinet that may interact with these medications and make them even more dangerous. And we need to see those lists before you take any of those medications."
Last April the Obama Administration promised support to state based drug monitoring programs to combat the epidemic.

Economy & Business
Economy & Business
Here is some perspective on how to negotiate with the Chinese.
WSJ propagandists like Stanley Lubman thinks that taking away jobs from Jobs from China and expect the local Chinese government will kowtow to American's demands. When American companies outsourced the jobs to China they pay the American workers severance however when these same Americans companies don't feel an obligation to do the same for Chinese workers. Obviously, Stanley Lubman is a racist thinking that American workers are better than Chinese workers.
The lesson is clear. Don't invest in China. Just export. Let the locals take the risk.
Some 35 years ago a colleague was held captive for week in China until he settled a dispute on the quality of logs he had sold a Chinese company ...not much has changed.
In China "possession is 9 tens of the law" ...takes on a whole new meaning.
Shouldn't there be some WTO rules against taking hostages for business negotiations?
Pug_ster, please read the article and research the incident before commenting. The American businessman was not cutting these people's jobs. He had already cut 30 jobs and paid those staff their legal severance pay. The rest of the staff, with whom's jobs were not in jeopardy, decided to assume things that were just not true. I guess they did this because their previous Chinese bosses probably cheated them in the past so they could only assume this would be the case now.
So Pug-ster, prevent yourself from looking like the idiot you usualy do and take a tip from me, please read the article, do some research and come up with an independent thought before responding to all these articles like you usually do with your reactionary, ignorant tone. You only make yourself and your fellow Chinese look more idiotic than you already are.
China is a land of OUTLAWS
Where they legalize Kidnapping
Where the Police just stood there watching Chip Stancer being held prisoner without doing anything!
Shame on China
A country where you can be send to hard labor camp for 2 years and never go to court
Do you want to live here with your family?
12:47 pm July 9, 2013
I hope you can distinguish between facts and propaganda.
Paying severance is the correct thing to do although not obligatory in America.
If there is any dispute it should be settled in court. That how it done in the civilized world.
In the uncivilized world, people should not act like uncivilized barbarian and take the law in to there own
hands and become vigilantes.
Kidnapping or the sequester of a person is wrong and illegal in any measure you want in the world
The police can only be called corrupt and unlawful while letting this man be imprison by his own workers.
So I conclude that these action cannot be called civil by any measure what soever.
If this is what it means to work in China, direct investments can only go down while other factory will close
there operations out of fear and disgust
China itself is a prison.
I think it shows how weak the Chinese police really are in dealing with 'social disorder' in China!
Now we see all of the foreign investors pulling their hot money out of China!
It didn't take this 'hostage incident' to convince foreigners that China was a third rate lawless country either. Many had already decided to pull out after witnessing the Beijing backed anti-Japanese riots in 2012.
As always everything tends to 'BACKFIRE' on the CCP stooges! In this case, they can further watch their economy collapse as investors leave China for good!
This has not changed. An US liquor firm experienced this in 2000, when they try to close down a subsidiary.
You must be new here: "pug_sterI hope you can distinguish between facts and propaganda."
When disputes like this arise in a country with meager rule of law and scant protection for workers and investors, this is what you get.
This is a common problem -workers are afraid that the owners will flee, and take whatever measures they can to ensure that they will receive severance. The police can do something if they like, but usually they will just "attend" to prevent violence.
The advice that we give to clients, is to try avoiding such situations. In a recent case, for example, we advise the owner / legal representative to stay at home, while we (the lawyers) deal with the problems. While less personal, this takes some of the pressure off so that a fair deal can be negotiated.
One note I would like to correct. The US lawyer that is quoted as stating that foreign-invested companies always lose in labor arbitration, is misinformed. We frequently represent our foreign-invested clients in labor arbitration and win - if we have the right evidence to prove that our client has applied the law.
In China there is only one law that the workers follows and that the vigilante law
Trying to talk to uneducated people in China and reasoning with them to follow the law and settle dispute in court is near to impossible.
The Police refuses to intervene even if there is a sequester of person being held against his will
How ridiculous is this
I'm an old, stinky, wrinkled, sad and lonely american man; No wonder everyone left me.
This is a Boss and workers dispute, there is no effective union in China, so workers are entitled to hold up the boss until he pays in peaceful ways.
what they usually do in U.S. before they shutdown factories, pay the workers or not?
President Xi Jinping's effort to clean up politics in the country is generally known as an "anticorruption campaign." In fact, he has a more ambitious agenda.
Earlier this month, Zhang Qi had to wait nearly an hour to get a taxi. In China, that became big news.
China's dramatic announcement that it will modify the one-child policy affects not only families but also the immense bureaucracy dedicated to enforcing the 35-year-old policy.
A article labeled as a confession by official media raises questions about resistance to China's anticorruption crackdown nearly three years into the high-level campaign.
After Xi Jinping remade the Chinese presidency, there are signs that No. 2 Li Keqiang is trying to do the same for his position.

By far, this is the best concealer I've ever used. I believe it was originally an MUA review that sent me looking for it, but I'm glad I did. I have dark under-eye circles, and occasional break-outs that this covers amazingly well.
I DO hope they keep manufacturing it. IDK what I'd do if I ran out and couldn't re-purchase! Probably cry. literally. :-)

I heard my friends and many youtube people rave about this product and how it could cover anything. Well for me all it did was stick to the slightest bit of dryness on my face and settle into fine lines. Maybe it was cause i applied it wrong but i have no idea. I'm still going to try out this product once in a while to figure out if its good for me or if i should just pass it on to my sisters. The price for this product is crazy amazing!!! It gives you one WHOLE fluid ounce for only $6 bucks. My other concealers come in 0.1 or a little more so i was so surprised for the large amount of product.

This concealer isn't all bad. Like everyone said its super thick, and opaque. I just bought this and I find its too much for the under eye area. It's good for blemishes and spots though. I'll use it for when I need to spot treat treat. I won't repurchase it. Oh yah, the color range also sucks. If you are of a darker skin tone, you may have trouble with this line.

Pretty good concealer, especially for the price!
I was looking for a concealer that would help me hide my acne scars and found some people were recommending Hardy Candy. Since I live in Canada, I had to scour through Wal-mart to find this brand, but when I did I was super happy to see that the concealer was only $6 and had the words "heavy-duty" on it (which sounded pretty promising).
Please keep in mind that I don't often wear full-coverage foundation. I like BB creams and foundations with a light to medium coverage because I find them easier to work with on a daily basis and my skin seems to tolerate them better. A heavier foundation may give a different effect with this concealer.
But for me, this concealer managed to cover most of my acne marks. It's a pretty creamy product though, so I am careful to not rub it too much when I apply my BB cream over top and I always always always set it with translucent powder. It does face a bit after 6 hours at school or work, but even then, it still diminishes the look of my scars.
Overall, it's not a miracle product, but it's definitely a decent concealer for small areas.

This product is just okay. I developed some dark eye circles after having surgery and needed a good concealer to cover them (they still haven't gone away, sigh). Nothing I had was working well enough, so I came to MUA for some recommendations and saw another review where someone had suggested a technique for covering her under eye circles by first using Smashbox under eye hydrating primer, followed by Bobbi Brown corrector, followed by a tiny bit of this Hard Candy concealer, and then finished off with Laura Mercier's Secret Brightening Powder (for under eyes). I wanted to try out this technique so I collected all of the ingredients and tried it for myself. I loved all of the products except for this concealer. I got this in the shade "Light" and it was much too light for me (just for reference, I have fair-medium skin and wear NC20/NC25). I usually like my concealers a shade or so lighter than my skin tone for the highlighting effect it gives, but this concealer was not good for that at all. It had sort of an ashy tone to it, so if you use it for highlighting the under eye area (like blending it outward in sort of a triangle shape a la Kim Kardashian), it really just ends up making the area between your eyes and cheekbones look cakey and grayish (ahh! O_o). I don't really use it for my under eye circles anymore... instead I use it more for tiny little problem spots like along the jawline or on the cheeks since when you're using it for such a small area the ashy-ness doesn't show as much. For this purpose it's okay. It's pretty heavy-duty so it covers dark spots and pimples very well and the staying power is decent compared to other concealers. It does wear off a bit after half a day or so, but I have yet to find a concealer that doesn't (and most don't even last THAT long). For under eye circles though, now I'm just sticking with the Bobbi Brown corrector since it covers pretty well, brightens, and doesn't look cakey. If you really want to give the Glamoflauge concealer a try though, I'd say go for it since it's so inexpensive and relatively easy to get ahold of.
One last thing I didn't like, and maybe I'm just too picky, but it seems like their spelling of the name is wrong. It's obviously a play on the word "camouflage," except they misplaced the u and put it at the end to make "Glamoflauge" when I think it should really be "Glamouflage." It's an understandable error to make, but it kind of makes the company seem like they don't pay much attention to detail. Nobody in the entire company caught this before it went to production?

I overall loved this concealer, until it started breaking me out :( It covers amazingly, there is literally nothing this won't cover, and the shade ultra light is the only concealer I've ever found that's actually light enough for my pale skin! However, it ended up being too heavy and oily for my sensitive, acne-prone skin and within a week I had massive breakouts. I'm so sad, this is the best concealer I've ever used. Highly recommended if you don't have acne prone skin!

I love this product. I swear it covers everything! And you only need the tiniest amount, I mean tiny! As in less than a pea size amount. The tube should last you a very long time. I've heard of some people with really spotted skin using it as a foundation, because like I said, it covers everything! It's very heavy so with sensitive or oily skin I wouldn't recommend it. It's perfect for under eyes and blemishes,

I am so happy to have found my HG concealer in this product! I haven't been this happy about a makeup item in a long time. I love this because it works perfectly on both my undereye area and on blemishes. It's extremely pigmented, meaning a little does a long way. A lot of people seem to find the consistency to be too "thick" and unblendable, but I find that if I apply a very tiny amount use my finger to blend, it blends fairly easily and doesn't cake up. The fact that you only have to use the tiniest amount means that the little tube lasts quite a long time, so the value is excellent. This is also the best color match I've ever come across- I use the Ultra Light shade and it's perfect for my very pale skin. The pencil that comes with it is also great- I use it to line my lower waterline, which makes my eyes look bigger and brighter.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Neutral
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Green
This is everything everyone's said it would be. Finally a product that delivers! It has exceptional coverage for my undereye circles, but you only need the tinest dot of it to cover. If you use too much it will look cakey, and it dries quickly so you have to blend it out asap, but the results when applied properly are perfect. It really looks like I don't have any dark circles. I'm not the kind of person who thinks that just because something's cheap means you can forgive it when it works like crap, but I still really encourage everyone to try this, because the results are crazy for such a cheap product.
Age: 19-24

-Excellent coverage
-Long wearing
-Difficult to blend out
-Really thick
I have pretty bad dark circles and this concealer covers them really well. The only thing I am not fond of is how difficult it is to blend out, but that is kind of expected as its such a thick consistency. Layering too much of this concealer can look a little bit cakey. A little bit goes a really long way given the super full coverage.
This concealer is pretty much a dupe of Make Up Forever's "Full Cover" concealer but less than half the cost.

The third attraction at the Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory Lego exhibit is portraits of MLB superstars. "Louisville Slugger has contracts with lots of players, old and current," Jewell says. "Since Legos are so sort-of kid-focused, so kids today would probably be more familiar with current players. So the museum went with some of today's biggest names, like Yankees' captain Derek Jeter.

Nat Gas prices lower on forecast for warmer weather
Weather and a little more weather is what is driving Nat Gas prices and will continue to do so as we are now in the heart of the winter heating season. Unfortunately for the remaining bulls the current weather forecast is bearish. The latest NOAA six to ten day and eight to fourteen day forecasts are projecting above normal temperatures across the eastern half of the US or the part of the country that generally uses the largest amount of Nat Gas for meeting heating requirements. Based on the latest temperature projections the first half of January is likely to average below normal Nat Gas heating related demand leaving little time for real winter like weather to actually set in and have a bullish impact on the supply and demand balances.

I am new to LabView and am having a really big hangup on this program any help would be much appreciated!
I am trying to Create a VI which prompts the user to select a
tab delimited text file of student grades for an exam. The text
file will have the following format:
Student Name / Student ID # / Exam Score (out of 100)
I then must extract the exam scores (use the Index Array function to extract as a 1D array) and convert them to numeric format using the conversion tools in the String sub-palette. My VI needs to also accept the cutoff scores for A, B, C, and D (array) and then assign a letter grade (A, B, C, D, or F) to each student.
The program should have a menu ring which allows the user to select a particular student and display their grade information (letter and numeric). A menu ring simply outputs an integer (0 to n-1) based on which of the n items from the menu has been selected. I will need to populate this list from another text file data. Property nodes can be used to modify any attribute of front panel objects programmatically.The front panel of my VI should look like this:

How to Clean Grout
Don't miss these tips on how to easily clean grout and prolong the life of your tile.
-If your grout looks dull and dingy, a good cleaning will have it looking fresh and new. Cleaning options range from the commercial, to the completely natural. Before beginning to clean with any product, prep the area by wiping it down with a wet cloth. One natural cleaning solution is a simple paste of two parts baking soda and one part water. Use a grout brush or old toothbrush to apply the paste to the grout lines. To get twice the scrubbing power, use an old electric toothbrush. Clean all of the grout lines then rinse the area with water. If your grout is stained or discolored, replace the water with vinegar and the baking soda paste. Careful it doesn't bubble over. Apply the paste to the grout and allow it to set a few minutes before scrubbing. Then rinse well. If you have coarse tiles, such as marble, test this method in an inconspicuous area since the acidic vinegar could stain the tile. Hydrogen peroxide is a less acidic option than vinegar. Mix one part peroxide with two parts baking soda. Apply this paste to the grout, scrub, and rinse. There are also plenty of commercial grout cleaners designed to do the job. Just follow the manufacturer's directions to clean your grout when using these products. No matter which cleaning option you choose, allow the grout to dry for 24 hours then use a sealer to preserve all of your hard work. Whether you use store-bought cleaners, or go with natural option, clean grout improves the look and extends the life of your tile.

We have a dinner to attend, so we're stepping away from the computer for a few hours.
There has been quite a bit of bonus news today, including announcements from Cravath and Cadwalader. And it's possible that more news might emerge tonight (although we think it's unlikely, given that it's after the close of business on the East Coast).
But if any interesting bonus news happens to come in while we're gone, please mention it in the comments to this post (and provide a link to your source, if any). We will investigate when we return.
And feel free to offer any other bonus-related rumors or rants. Thanks!

Been gone all day getting a dog/puppy for my 83yr old mommy and haven't checked back here until now. Bill, I like what I hear and can't wait to give it a try. I checked my email and got a invoice/shipping confirmation from Freestyle so it won't be long now. I've done a ton of searching and there's not a wealth of information about F76+, but the one thing I did find common about it is that no one said anything bad about F76+. Some folks said it's fantastic, some said it's very good, same as D76, no better than..........................., but no one said it was lousy. Might just turn out better then I expected? We'll see I guess. JohnW
Yeah... something bad about F76, but also easily countered by proper and simple action. :)
No film developer is going to 'knock you out'. Remember, the neg is only an intermediary. I have prints from negs made with that developer, and I have nothing but good experience to tell, after i used it for a while and did the usual tweaking.
I guess I'm the kind of guy that likes to claim that the end results are 95% about skill and 5% about materials.
But one man's ceiling is another man's floor. You're not wrong and I'm not necessarily right. Hope you found something else that works well.
I said "knock me out" because of all the hype associated with FA-1027, so if F-76 is the same, I was expecting…well, something special, or unique. Just as Edwal 12 has specific characteristics, or a glycin developer, I had expected F-76 to present a specific characteristic that made the developer something beyond D-76. I didn't find that F-76 provided the tonality I wanted -- which ran counter to my expectations re: FA-1027.
I'm surprised and trying to understand what happened.
I attached a scan of a contact print I made from a 4x5 negative a little while back. I shot it using Tri-X and used FA-1027. Contact printed. I don't think another developer would have done anything to improve the print. It might have changed the negative slightly in tonality, but usually it's something that can be compensated for to a large extent come printing time. We have so much control over the work flow, both negative processing and printing, by just changing technique, that I usually don't understand why people make such a big deal out of developers. Sure, Edwal 12 has special properties, absolutely, but you can get 80-90% of it by just changing how you shoot and process the film.
Is it permissible that I just say that I didn't like F76? If it works well for other people's workflow, I'm happy for them. MY POINT was that I was simply trying to determine on what basis people were saying F76 is the same as FA-1027. That issue has been addressed above.

Poland Plans to Spend 9.9 Billion Zloty on Power Grid Upgrade
PSE Operator SA, Poland's power grid operator, plans to spend 9.9 billion zloty ($3.1 billion) in the next five years building power lines and upgrading the national electricity transmission network.
The supervisory board of the Konstancin-Jeziorna-based company approved its investment plan that includes building almost 5,000 kilometers (3,100 miles) of power lines and upgrading 2,000 existing ones, PSE Operator said today in an e-mail.
The investments include laying cables to connect new power sources to the grid as well as building cross-border lines with neighboring countries.
PSE Operator plans to build a link with the Lithuanian network, to allow Poland to import 500 megawatts of power by 2015. The cable will in part be financed by the European Union as the connection is among strategic projects aiming at linking the 27-nation bloc's energy markets. By 2020, the grid manager is planning to build additional links with Germany.

December 1, 2015
LAS VEGAS (AP) -- O.J. Simpson's lawyer is trying to show jurors that police were out to "get" Simpson, right from the start of their investigation into an incident at a Las Vegas hotel.
At Simpson's robbery trial today, attorney Yale Galanter asked a police detective about comments that Galanter says were captured on a recorder during the investigation a year ago.
He asked if the detective remembered officers saying, "They didn't get him in California, we're going to get him now."
The detective responded that he remembered officers making some comments, but that he couldn't recall the exact words.
The recorder had been hidden in the hotel room where Simpson and five other men allegedly robbed two memorabilia dealers at gunpoint.

The Highway Horror Film
|Publication Date
|March 2014
|Hardcover Ebook (EPUB) Ebook (PDF)
|Palgrave Pivot
The Highway Horror Film argues that 'Highway Horror' is a hither-to overlooked sub-genre of the American horror movie that articulates profound unease about the increasingly transitory nature of modern American life, as well as the wider impact of mass automobility. Along with the establishment of the suburbs, the post-1956 construction of the Interstate Highway System represents one of the most dramatic innovations of post-war American society. The new network of well-maintained and well-constructed roads provided Americans with a freedom to move around the entire nation that had previously been denied to them. In addition, the car assumed the vitally important practical and symbolic function it holds to this day. Both of these innovations are questioned in this landmark study. In Highway Horror films, the American landscape is by its very accessibility rendered terrifyingly hostile, and encounters with other travellers (and with those whose roadside businesses depend on highway traffic) almost always have sinister outcomes.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Star Kim Richards Leaves Rehab
After more than a month of treatment, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kim Richards has checked out of rehab, Us Weekly can exclusively report. "Kim is doing well," a source says.
PHOTOS: Biggest RHOBH bombshells
During her short stay, Kim "tried to leave and she ended up coming back," another insider told Us on December 29, adding that the 47-year-old was "very defiant."
Because she was in treatment, Kim -- who recently split with Ken Blumenfeld -- was unable to tape The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion special, airing later this year.
PHOTOS: Celebrity rehab centers
Kim's erratic behavior was a central theme of the show's second season: in one episode, costar Adrienne Maloof's plastic surgeon husband Dr. Paul Nassif informed Kim that she was taking too many prescription pills, resulting in slurred peach and a "sedated" demeanor.
VIDEO: Lisa VanderPump impersonates Kim Richards
Costar Brandi Glanville also accused the former child star of being "wasted out of her f-cking mind" during game night at Dana Wilkey's house.
"Kim's alcohol addiction along with other substance abuse problems has been obvious for quite some time," a close pal told Us December 6. "It's really good that she's finally getting help."

The following states have the highest divorce rates in the nation, based on data from the latest National Vital Statistics Report and U.S. Census crunched by the Wall Street Journal. Each rate was calculated using the number of divorces and annulments by state, then dividing that number by the state population.

Seattle's new light rail line is poised to usher in a new era for Martin Luther King Jr. Way. Though most are excited about the new development, the fear of gentrification has made some residents worry that they won't be around to reap the benefits.
"When Sound Transit decided to run the region's first light-rail line down MLK a decade ago, backers predicted it would spark a redevelopment boom in one of Seattle's poorest, most neglected, most ethnically diverse corridors.
Now, at last, that prediction is starting to come true.
Over the past year private, for-profit developers have proposed more than 1,500 condo and apartment units within a 10-minute walk of a rail station. They will be the Rainier Valley's first multifamily projects built without government subsidies in more than 30 years, city officials say."
"But the specter of gentrification looms. MLK is a cornucopia of diversity - Chinese herb shops, Vietnamese video stores, Somali money-transfer offices, Filipino meat markets and restaurants that serve everything from soul food and tortas to goat curry and pho.
Smith and others say rising rents and real-estate prices already are forcing out some businesses and residents and threatening to dilute this rich ethnic stew.
Government officials, community organizations - and developers - all say they want to prevent that, to make sure the valley's renaissance benefits those who are already here."

text: Hi everyone, This is my first post at this blog and I want to dedicate to all college student. In this post I am going to give you 10 advice to obtain success at the college; 1. Take control. For many students, the most striking difference between college and high school is that at college there's no one there to stand over you and tell you what to do. Getting to class, doing the homework, getting your papers in on time—all of these are things you're going to have to do without a parent or teacher to beat on you. Step up to bat and take responsibility. You're in charge of this thing. 2 Audition your professors. Many entering students think they should just take the "standard first-year program" their adviser hands them, and be done with it. But a far better idea is to go to the first class or two and assess the professor. Ask yourself: Is the material presented clearly and forcefully? Does... read more

After a "tepid" holiday season, the company - which owns interests
in and/or manages 146 shopping malls in 39 states, comprising over 116 million
square feet of retail space - announced a 10-percent increase in funds from
operations for the year 2000.
For the first quarter of this year, funds from operations were up 7 percent
to $77 million, from $72 million in first-quarter 2000. "We have consistently
managed and maintained profitability throughout periods of economic weakness,"
says John Bucksbaum, CEO of General Growth Properties (GGP). "I am confident
that we will continue to grow as expected, and I am excited about our future
going forward."
In an effort to keep tenants interested and intact, the company has turned
to technology, adding some clicks to its traditional bricks-and-mortar portfolio.
In August 2000, General Growth rolled out its "Mallibu" retail convergence
strategy. Company officials teamed with IBM to create interactive media stations
physically located within General Growth shopping centers nationwide. IBM applied
its MerchantReach family of solutions and kiosk expertise to design and build
an interactive media station for the mall environment. MallibuDirect was born.
The new kiosks allow local shoppers to access web-enabled GGP tenants without
leaving the mall. MallibuDirect provides online retailers and service companies
with a new cost-effective and secure vehicle to market their stores and products
through an interactive media station located in GGP's physical malls.
Using the new system, GGP mall shoppers can readily connect to unique online
shopping and services sites, research online retailers, find the latest digital
promotions and contests, and conduct online shopping. They also may view mall
store directories and in-mall store sales information.
The company since has rolled out Mallibu.com, a fully interactive, online shopping
center destination that links brick-and-mortar retailers in GGP malls to shoppers
all over the Internet.
In March, the company joined forces with Skytron Corp. to install the Irvine,
CA-based company's Skytron Mall Television Network programming in more than
100 its shopping centers. The network will entertain and inform shoppers with
video programming combined with product and promotional information delivered
on proprietary 4- by 7-foot, three-sided HDTV screens suspended in the mall
food areas.
Programming is tailored to the interests of mall shoppers and includes such
segments as music, entertainment, fashion, travel, lifestyle topics, and features
from the pages of Elle, Car and Driver, and other Hachette Filipacchi Magazines.

Questions tagged with 'as'http://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/tags/as2015-11-30T07:22:24ZUse of commas with "given" and "as"http://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/69899-use-of-commas-with-given-and-as/
 When should you use a comma with "given" (or "given that") and "as"?

 I know "as" is generally categorized as a subordinate conjunction and therefore requires a comma. However, does the rule change when it joins two independent clauses?

 In my line of work, "given" is sometimes given the meaning "due to" or "attributable to." In these cases, does the need for a comma also change dependent on what types of clauses it's connecting?

 For example:

 1. Experts reported a positive outlook for the company given that (or as) it continues to exceed revenue expectations. (Seems like a comma is necessary, as two independent clauses are being joined.)

 2. The hail's impact on the dealership's losses was mitigated, given (or as) an adjacent garage provided covered space during the emergency. (Comma needed for the same reason as above.)

 3. Others have chosen to rent given the ongoing costs of home improvements. (Seems no comma is needed because "given" joins an independent and dependent clause.)

 4. The asset cost investors given losses in the sector.  (Comma needed for same reason as above.)

 Also ---

 5. The medication provided a modest benefit, as the pain relief allowed the patient to sleep. (Comma needed, as clauses are independent.)

 Thank you!

 as or likehttp://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/54977-as-or-like/
Can anyone please tell me the difference between 'as' and 'like'? I don't know where is the right place to use them...

asked Feb 17 at 06:19 by Youngsun Han, New member

1 answer

I think you mean "like" as compared to either "as if" or "as though," don't you? It's a controversial topic in grammar. To be hyper correct, always use "like" as a preposition (Tom throws like a girl) and "as" as a conjunction (Tom throws as if he were a girl). I'll paste in a useful reference with more information.

 d) as it was

 e) as being

asked Dec 13 '14 at 17:02 by Emre Yener, New member

1 answer

 Tricky.

 Both (a) and (e) would be regarded as making sense. Technically, I would choose (e) here because what is being explained is how the mind is ... so it makes sense to use the verb "to be" as part of her explanation. It also helps to clarify that it's not she who is like the monkey, but the mind.

 Nevertheless, English never saw an omission it didn't like.

 as well as to connect verbshttp://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/14485-as-well-as-to-connect-verbs/
 Private sectors will cooperate with the authority to develop new health institutions and new shopping malls as well as promote green urban living in the area.

 Is it a proper way to connect 'develop' and 'promote'? Somehow it feels rather awkward with the construction 'and' to connect the two nouns, then 'as well as' to connect the two verbs.

asked Apr 16 '13 at 03:21 by Marie, New member

1 answer

 I agree that it is awkward, Marie. There are a few issues that I see. First, when we talk about the private sector, it is just one private sector. The alternative is the public sector. You are either talking about individuals or companies in the private sector. There are not plural private sectors.

 You are trying to write that they will cooperate with the authority to do three things: develop health institutions, develop shopping malls, and promote green urban living. I can think of a couple solutions to clean up your sentence.

 You could tighten up "develop new health institutions and new shopping malls" a bit by eliminating the second "new", then add "to" in front of promote.

 You could use another verb to go with the shopping malls. This would more clearly separate the three ways they will cooperate: develop health institutions, build shopping malls, promote green living.

About a year ago, Marcos Martinez and his wife, Melisa, moved from West 50th Avenue and Lowell Boulevard in Denver to West 65th Avenue and Lowell in Westminster shortly after their second child was born.
They needed a bigger home, and they either weren't available in northwest Denver or were too expensive, he said.
"The houses in Denver are chic and they're really cool, but when you have a growing family, you need more space," Martinez said.
Now, his wife is pregnant with their third child.
The Martinezes are far from alone among Latinos in their relocation to the suburbs. The percentage of Latino births in south Westminster has risen from 58 percent to 77 percent since 2000.

Vanderbilt happy to get another linebacker back on the field
Vanderbilt is all but finished with injuries to its starting linebackers.
Chase Garnham, last season's second leading tackler, returned to the depth chart this week as the Commodores prepare to play Florida (11 a.m., Fox Sports-Tennessee). The senior out of Fairhope, Ala., has not played since the opener against Ole Miss and was on crutches for several weeks after that contest.
He is listed second at middle linebacker behind sophomore Jake Sealand, who has topped the depth chart for the last seven contests.
"You see [Garnham] as the No. 2 because to expect him to go out and play 65-70 plays as your starter after missing [nine] weeks, I don't think that's realistic," coach James Franklin said. "We'll see how this week goes, try to get him a few plays in this game and build on that from there."
Outside linebacker Karl Butler missed three full games in late September and early October but has played in the last two. He tied his career-high with seven tackles in the Commodores' last outing, Oct. 26 at Texas A&M.
Darreon Herring, the other outside linebacker, is the only one who has started every game this season. He is second on the team with 57 tackles, including nine or more three times.
Garnham, who started every game last season and seven in 2011, made two stops in the opener before he was injured.
"He's on the depth chart because we're expecting to play him," Franklin said. "… Having him back, just from an experience standpoint, we think is huge. We weren't going to put him on the field if we felt like he wasn't ready in a lot of different areas. We think he is."
