When is the best time to tell my employer I'm pregnant?
I work at an accounting firm, and recently found out I am expecting. My EDD will be in early February, which is super crucial time to this industry, as it will be tax time. I am worried that my boss will be upset that I will have to miss time during such an important time for the company. When should I break the news?

Can an Evap line show up at 2 minutes and be pink?
I cracked this morning and took a test with a FR at 11dpo. The line came up with in 2 minutes and was a light pink, but it's still light and no where near as dark as the control line. You would think I would know this stuff considering I already have 2 kids and an angel baby, but every other time I've ever done a test, it was after my period and the tests were as dark as the control line. Those pretty little "6 days sooner" words were just looking up at me, plus I woke up feeling sick... but this is what I get for testing early, just a bunch of questions ...

Evap lines typically appear after the alloted test time (10 or 15 min depending on the test) and are normally gray. If you got a light pink line in 2 min, you are probably pregnant. Wait a couple of more days and retest :)posted 10/05/2012 by GamerMom83

Spring break is right around the corner. While your body may be just about ready for that bikini, make sure you have the right cosmetics to look your best on the beach and wherever else your travels bring you.
Just like summer makeup, the makeup palettes you wear in tropical locations should be simple. According to Allure Magazine, you should look like a "sunnier version of yourself," not all done up.
The most important step of a beach beauty routine is sunscreen. Always slather on your SPF before any makeup. Wait 20 minutes before putting anything over it.
The magazine reports that if you're headed to a humid location, you can pretty much forget about flawless coverage. Instead of fussing with foundation, bring pressed powder and concealer if you absolutely must cover a blemish before hitting the beach.
Bronzer is a key element to spring break makeup. If you have light skin and have been good about sunscreen, you can keep up with your tan friends by applying a shade that looks like a natural tan color on you. If you go out during the day or at night, apply some matte bronzer to the parts of your face that the sun would naturally hit. Add some to your shoulders and chest for added glow.

UK Exit from EU No Guarantee of Better Fortunes
Clive Crook, Bloomberg
AP Photo
At some point, enough is enough. Maybe a separation on friendly terms would be better for all involved. Well, it might come to that, and it's wrong to dismiss a British decision to leave as "unthinkable." Equally, though, since moving the country to a better location would be difficult, Britain ought to think hard about what divorcing Europe would mean.

I am on Windows XP SP2.
Windows has scheduled a chkdsk at system boot, but something is canceling it automatically.
Every time I restart Windows, it tries to run a chkdsk but never succeed because it is being automatically cancelled.
Windows says it better to run it and no matter how many times I try to schedule it, it is being cancelled.
Is there a way to find what's canceling it and how to make sure it runs?
Where is the file that contains chkdsk command anyway?
The beat never fades!
Have you tried running it from an prompt command?
start > run and type cmd
then at the prompt
chkdsk c: /f
and hit enter
In The Matters Of Style,
swim with the current;
in matters of principle,

"People demand freedom of speech to make up for the
freedom of thought which they avoid."
also there are a few issues that have been known to cause similar problems.
1 A wireless keyboard constantly sends connection messages to the computer and this message is misinterpreted by the command and cancels the chkdsk program.
2) Some USB keyboards will also cause the program to cancel
The last thing I can come up with is that the BIOS (firmware) of the HD is faulty or corrupted in some way.
when the computer schedules a chkdsk at boot the command sends a signal to the harddrive to use its own checking program to search and repair any errors. sometimes this goes bad and chkdsk is canceled from the harddrive bios. There is no fix for this and it doesn't mean that the drive is failing. It just means that the drive cannot do a self repair of bad sectors when prompted. In this case the only way is to use the manufacturer's utillity to perform the test!

The Swamp watches the Sunday talks, so you can clean out the basement and argue with your spouse over whether to finally throw away those '60s L.P.s.
Tom Brokaw shows us that, even without the departed Tim Russert, if it's Sunday it's still Meet the Press. MPT got the big "get," as guest interviewees are known in the trade--an hour-long, exclusive interview with Sen. Barack Obama, pausing in London before returning home from his 8-day European-Middle Eastern tour.
A number of people seem bothered by the tour, primarily because Obama, who doesn't even have the Democratic presidential nomination, looked so presidential, and was treated so presidentially in France and Germany, where he mesmerized a crowd of 200,000 packed themselves into the Tiergarten near the Brandenburg Gate.
The Berlin speech recalled John F. Kennedy's declaration to a similar crowd, some 35 years ago, that "Ich bin ein Berliner," which the late president apparently meant to mean "I'm a citizen of Berlin," but which translates literally as "I'm a jelly doughnut" (Kennedy should have said "Ich bin Berliner").
The Swamp wonders when it suddenly became unseemly for American presidential hopefuls, especially Democrats, to travel abroad in hopes of cementing their popularity among ethnic voters at home.
For decades what became known as the "three I tour"--Italy, Ireland and Israel--was de rigueur for any Democrat running for president. But Republicans and even some Obama supporters observed that the cheering Tiergarten throngs, or French President Nicolas Sarkozy's public embrace, made it seem as though a presumptuous Obama was behaving as though he had already won the election.
Obama didn't have much of substance to say in Germany; it was a "feel good" speech about coming together, being "citizens of the world," and so on.
But recall that Germany and France were among the countries most opposed to American intervention in Iraq and even dismissed by former Defense Secretary Don Rumsfeld as part of "the Old Europe," creating wounds that still have not healed. Obama's emotional reception in both places seemed to signal that, should he be elected, repairs to the ruptured Atlantic alliance will quickly follow.
Republicans also took note that Obama, who also visited Iraq and Jordan, seemed reluctant to acknowledge, in so many words, that President Bush's "surge"--the infusion of an extra 30,000 U.S. troops into Iraq last year--has apparently helped to contain that country's insurgency. In Anbar province, which Obama visited, Al Qaeda operatives practically no longer exist.
Obama opposed the surge, but he has yet to admit that it has had the intended effect of "pacifying" important parts of the Suni triangle. Some astute observers noted, however, that the pacification of Anbar began before the U.S. reinforcements arrived, a result of the recognition by local Sheiks that the insurgency was not good for business.
What must worry Democratic strategists is the failure of Obama's world visit to noticeably boost his standing in the domestic polls, most of which show him with the same 5-6 point lead over Republican Senator John McCain that he had before he left the country.
Statewide and local Democratic candidates in key states have measurably larger leads over their Republican opponents, which cautions against assumptions that Obama does somehow has the presidency locked up. The main popular concern seems to be that McCain, a former Navy Captain and Vietnam POW, bests Obama when it comes to national security affairs and managing the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan as the nation's Commander-in-Chief.
ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos trumpeted its own "exclusive" interview with McCain--an exclusivity that lasted only until McCain turned up on CNN's "Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer" an hour later.
McCain took every opportunity to point out that, unlike Obama, he had supported "the surge" from the beginning. McCain had a harder time explaining his remark five days ago that Obama, "who does not understand what's happening in Iraq, or fails to acknowledge the success in Iraq, would rather lose a war than lose a campaign." McCain denied that he had questioned Obama's honor or his patriotism, but his explanation of what he had meant was difficult to follow.
While terrorism and the war were the prime issues four years ago, this year they are trumped by the ailing economy, which does not seem to be getting much sicker but refuses to get well. The consensus among Stephanopoulos's talking heads was that McCain has not moved fast enough--or really at all--to distance himself from George Bush's economic policies, even going so far as to say he will make the Bush tax cuts permanent, a fiscal strategy questioned by economists of all political stripes for a nation waging what will soon become a trillion-dollar war.
One can only pray that both candidates choose their running-mates soon, to stop the tormenting white noise of speculation about who is a "better fit" for whom. Washington insiders claim to know who's "on the list," but only the candidates know for sure, and chances are they don't even know.
There's speculation, not denied by McCain, that he wants to announce his vice-president before the Beijing Olympics began in a week. That would be a blessed relief.
As for Obama, as ABC's Cokie Roberts put it, "all he has to do is pick a boring white guy and there are tons of them. They're everywhere."
McCain took a dramatic step forward during his second appearance of the morning, when he announced on CNN that his first move as president would be to "restrain out-of-control spending," though without saying how that could be done while the Pentagon is spending $100,00 a minute in Iraq. The implied answer seemed to be that the level of spending in Iraq was soon to drop precipitously as American troops began returning home. Under the category of words that may have to be eaten later, file McCain's declaration that "The surge has succeeded and we're on the road to victory. We're on the way out of there."
Even more daring--not to say reckless--was McCain's pledge that, if elected, he would capture terrorist chieftain Osama bin Laden--something most terrorist experts agree might have symbolic value, but no significant impact on the level of terrorism around the world now that bin Laden has been reduced to playing a mainly iconic role.
"I know how to do it" McCain said with a knowing smile, refusing to hint at what he has in mind in order not to tip off Al Qaeda. Blitzer missed a good question when he failed to ask why, if McCain knew how to catch bin Laden, he hadn't told President Bush.
Those over 50 could not help but be reminded of Richard Nixon's "secret plan to end the war in Vietnam," which Nixon refused to disclose in advance of the 1968 presidential election, but which turned out not to exist once he was elected.

April 24, 2014 | Vol. 128-No .33
At its regular meeting Monday, the Transylvania County Board of Education discussed its intent to submit to state legislators a resolution in support of the Child Nutrition program.
The resolution is being submitted in hopes legislators will appeal to the federal government to increase the rate at which it reimburses the state for meals in public schools.
Board members Ron Kiviniemi and Sue Fox were absent from Monday's meeting. The resolution will be voted on at the board's next meeting.
Board chair Tawny McCoy said that "financial insulation at a local level would be prudent for the program," and board member Mike Rogers said he was pleased with the resolution.
Currently, 61 percent of students in the school system in Transylvania County are on a "free and reduced" lunch rate, and the cost of funding the program is rising.
New federal regulations in nutrition are hindering the program further. (A more in-depth look at the Child Nutrition program will appear in The Transylvania Times soon.)
In other news at Monday's meeting:
• Roughly 25-26 teacher positions will be open for the 2014-15 school year, due largely to retirement.
Applications for these positions are currently being taken.
• A groundbreaking ceremony for the new turf field at Brevard High School will be held at 3:30 p.m. on May 1.
Medallion, the company that won the bid for the football field at BHS, will begin work on the field, with a projected completion in time for the first game against Owen High on Aug. 22.
• The North Carolina National Board Certification Program has recognized Jeremy Gibbs, Transylvania County Schools' district coordinator, for exemplary service in supporting National Board certification candidates and National Board certified teachers.
• The Sigma Xi award for interdisciplinary research was presented to geology major Jared Voris of Brevard for his study, "Lateral Osteoderm Analysis of Desmatosuchus Spurensis," an analysis of two fossilized scales from the crocodile-like aetosaurs found in an Arizona quarry.
Voris is a graduate of Rosman High School and attends Appalachian State University.
• The Pisgah Forest Elementary School Science Olympiad Team won first place at the Buncombe County Regional Elementary Tournament. Students competed against elementary schools from Buncombe and Henderson counties in 18 categories that involve engineering skills and general science knowledge.
Pisgah Forest took first place in Water Rockets, Bone and Brawn, Genes-R-Us, The Heat is On, and Work It Out. They also placed second in Fossil Frenzy, Junk Box Build-Off, Trajeggtory, Backyard Biologists, Bridge-a-Roni, Data Crunchers, and Describe It/Build It. Coached by Bob Dinsdale and Stefanie Tomlin, the team has been building, researching and studying since November to prepare for the competition.
The Science Olympiad members are A. J. Eberhardt, Graham Patterson, Haley Yarbrough, Estrella Sheehan, Willow Blackstock, Milo Jones, Kiernan Lockhart, Pearl Brown, Ada Weaver, Robert Hienemann, Charlie Stewart, MacKenzie Caison, Brendan Farmer, Chris Conner, and Bobby Brown.
• At Rosman and Pisgah Forest Elementary schools, volunteers were recently treated to students singing, refreshments, and thanks from teachers and administrators for the thousands of hours donated by volunteers throughout the school year.
On April 10 at RES, 33 volunteers were invited to share lunch and review the positive results their work has created for the school. Special thanks were extended to a handful of volunteers from the Augustine Literacy Project, which helps individual students get hours of one-on-one assistance from highly trained tutors.
Among the volunteers recognized on April 17 at PFES were Gerald and Nancy Deaver, who have assisted with one or two classes per week for 20 years, and Linda Snowdon, who taught at Pisgah Forest for 13 years and has since volunteered for another 10.
Brevard Community Church, where volunteers train for the Augustine Literacy Project, recently provided breakfast for PFE teachers to show their continuing support for our schools.
• During the week of April 7, Brevard Elementary School classes participated in "Coins for a Cure" to raise funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
With containers in each class, students brought in pennies on Monday, nickels on Tuesday, and so on to meet their goal of $50 per class, or $1,500 for the school. Brevard Elementary students raised more than $1,900 for the CF Foundation on behalf of BES second grader Madi Ball, one of several area residents with cystic fibrosis.
A check will be formally presented at the organization's annual Great Strides Walk in Brevard on May 3.
Grassroots fundraising is currently the only way to support new treatments to extend and improve the lives of those with CF. School nurse April Owenby spearheaded the drive. The program was so successful, there are plans to help expand it to other schools in coming years.
• The Health Occupations Student Association of Brevard High School held a blood drive with the American Red Cross on April 17 in the BHS gymnasium.
According to HOSA advisor and Health Sciences teacher, Trina Hendricks, "Our community heavily depends on high school blood drives to support the demand for blood in our community.
Having a niece who just received platelets this week for her childhood cancer, I greatly appreciate it as well."
Out of 66 people who presented to donate, 35 of them were first-time donors.
The Red Cross acquired 59 productive units — nine more than the goal of 50 units.
Twenty student volunteers helped to put on the event.
• At 8 a.m. on Saturday, April 12, just ahead of the Assault on the Carolinas, almost 110 runners, young and old, gathered for Pisgah Forest Elementary School's first-ever Raccoon Run 5K.
Surpassing their goal of 100 participants, organizers were pleased by the turnout. Members of ROPE, the Rangers Organization of Parents and Educators, started organized the event.
The first Raccoon Run 5K raised more than $3,000 from sponsors led by Hunter Subaru of Hendersonville, and another $1,100 from participants.
• During the week of April 14, Mrs. Pauer's fifth grade class at Brevard Elementary School enjoyed the final stages of their collaboration with composer and professor Jenn Jolley of Ohio Wesleyan University. BES music teacher Sarah Moser teamed with Brevard College professor Miller Asbill to commission a brand-new work, entitled "Through the Looking Glass Falls," which received its world premiere on Thursday, April 17, at the Porter Center.
The piece was composed by Jolley, based on musical ideas created by the fifth graders themselves.
The project was made possible thanks to support from Brevard College, Brevard Community Band, and the Transylvania County Schools Educational Foundation.
• Communication skills teacher Kelly Muse and social studies teacher Leah Hammond of Brevard Middle School organized a trip for almost 50 eighth graders to Washington, D.C. in early April.
Accompanied by Principal Kerry Putnam and Lewis Whiteside, the group visited attractions around the nation's capital, including the Washington and Lincoln Memorials and Arlington National Cemetery for the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
The highlight and focus of the trip, however, was the U. S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.
• Since Thanksgiving, Rosman High School horticulture teacher Heather McNeely has worked with horticulture classes, student volunteers and members of the Future Farmers of America to prepare and grow produce for spring sales at the Transylvania Farmers Market. On Saturday, April 19, McNeely, her student teacher and seven volunteers helped kick off this year's season opening at the Farmers Market, again packing up a trailer full of hanging baskets, annuals, succulents, lettuce bowls and herbs for sale in downtown Brevard.
According to McNeely, they could bring many, many more basil plants and still sell out at every market. The single greenhouse at RHS provides a central location for students to gain practical knowledge of hydroponics and other growing methods, as well as learning business skills and volunteer service.
Proceeds from Saturday sales go back into the program.
Students from Transylvania County Schools have art work featured in the TC Arts Council from April 7-30.
An opening reception on April 10 gave art teachers and students an occasion to gather and celebrate their best works from throughout the school year.
The student art exhibit will also help to launch the annual series of 4th Friday Gallery Walks at another reception at the TC Arts Council on April 25 from 5-9 p.m ., along with a performance by Davidson River Taiko. Art teachers Emily Atkinson (BMS), Elizabeth Ballard (TCH and RMS), John Brinkley (RES), Vernon Bryson (PFES), Pam Granger-Gale (BES), Sean Parrish (BHS), and Amy Schoenacher (BHS) brought the annual show together.

Brock Lesnar Re-signs with WWE, Jericho Feuding with Ziggler
by Amish Patel - January 28, 2013
– PWInsider reports that Brock Lesnar has signed the two-year contract extension that we noted was previously offered to him. This would keep Lesnar in the company through WrestleMania 31.
– WWE's website spoke to Chris Jericho following last night's surprise return at the Royal Rumble. Jericho talked about keeping his return a surprise but was interrupted by Dolph Ziggler. Jericho said Ziggler got him fired last year but now he's been re-hired. Jericho threatened to stay on Ziggler's case day in and day out for the next year.
Jericho also tweeted about his return:
"Fooled ya!!!! One of the best nights of my career…Thank you guys!! #47min53seconds"

text: Gr 1-5-- The fisherman's pregnant wife wants sugar cane, and in an attempt to satisfy her cravings he cuts some from the garden of Madame Fate, an infamous "conjure-woman." In return, the sorceress demands the couple's unborn child, who will be named Sugar Cane. On the girl's first birthday, the woman takes her to live in a tower without stairs. As Sugar Cane grows, she learns music from her spirit-teachers--an angel from the heavenly choir, a 500-year-old Spanish Gypsy, and a "jazz master from New Orleans." One evening the lonely girl's voice attracts King, a young man renowned for his songs. Coln's colored-pencil-and-watercolor illustrations mirror the lyrical text. Contours and curves scratched into the sun-drenched landscapes create a rhythm of their own. Not only does Sugar Cane eventually find and marry King once she escapes the sorceress, but she is also reunited with her parents on her wedding day. Music from the Italian Renaissance permeates Paul O. Zelinsky's Rapunzel (Dutton, 1997), but Storace's Sugar Cane dances "the rumba, the bolero, the samba, and the mambo." This lovely book begs to be read aloud.--Mary Jean Smith, Southside Elementary School, Lebanon, TN[Page 86]. Copyright 2007 Reed Business Information.

Schumacher Seeks First Win of 2007; Sampey, Brown Ready for Motorcycle Opener
March 14, 2007
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (Army News Service, March 14, 2007) - Army NHRA pilots Tony "The Sarge" Schumacher, Angelle Sampey and Antron Brown will take to historic Gainesville Raceway this weekend for the 38th annual ACDelco Gatornationals.
Schumacher, who pilots the Army Top Fuel dragster, will be looking to pocket his first victory of the still young 2007 season as Sampey and Brown, aboard their Army Suzukis, will attempt to kick off the Pro Stock Motorcycle campaign in solid fashion.
Top Fuel
After failing to get to victory lane at the first two races, Schumacher would love to break through at the NHRA's traditional East Coast opener.
"We've been running well, but we just haven't been able to get over the hump," said the defending NHRA POWERade Top Fuel world champion. "It's been a long couple of weeks off, so we're ready to get back after it."
Schumacher, who has a Gatornationals title to his credit from 2004, knows how much of a challenge Gainesville Raceway can be.
"It's a nice track, but it can be a bear to get down if the weather is hot," he said. "We'll likely face far different conditions than we had at both Pomona and Phoenix."
Gainesville Raceway has a rich tradition of history-making performances including the first 300 mph Top Fuel pass recorded in 1992. Schumacher holds the track record for speed at 333.95 mph set two years ago.
"The concrete launch pad down there at 675 feet is one of the longest on the tour,
so that certainly helps out a lot," offered the Chicago-area resident.
Pro Stock Motorcycles
Both Sampey and Brown are eager to set sail on a new season, which now totals 16 races for the two-wheelers.
Brown wants to erase the disappointment of 2006 when he came up just 23 points short of claiming his first world championship.
"It's a brand new year and I can't wait to get going," said the New Jersey native. "Last year was last year-you really can't dwell on the past."
Sampey, who captured the first two Pro Stock Motorcycle races last year, would like to duplicate that effort this time around.
"Getting off to a good start to the season and then maintaining that momentum will be important not only for me, but Antron as well," she said. "We finished second and third last year in the standings and it's time for each of us to move up a couple of rungs on the ladder."
While Brown is shooting for his first crown, Sampey is focused on nailing her fourth world championship ring. With six more wins, she will move past the late Dave Schultz on the all-time Pro Stock Motorcycle victory list.
"You can't imagine how much I want that first title," added Brown. "Like our Soldiers, I'll never quit."
"I'll take the ring before the record," said Sampey. "Team achievements always come first. If I'm also fortunate to become the rider with the most wins, well, then that will be great as well."

South Africa's Julius Malema talks to Al Jazeera
01 Aug 2013 11:09 GMT | Politics, Africa, Niger, Nigeria, Zimbabwe
Morgan Tsvangirai, Zimbabwe's prime minister, has called the southern African country's elections a "huge farce", one day after his latest attempt to end President Robert Mugabe's 33-year rule.
The Movement For Democratic Change presidential candidate told a press conference on Thursday that Wednesday's elections did not meet Southern African Development Community guidelines.
"Its credibility has been marred by administrative and legal violations which affect the legitimacy of its outcome," Tsvangirai said.
"It is a sham election that does not reflect the will of the people".
Zimbabwe's leading domestic election monitoring agency said earlier on Thursday that the credibility of the elections had been "seriously compromised" by irregularities on polling day.
Officials from the Zimbabwe Election Support Network (ZESN) said that urban voters, who mainly favour Tsvangirai had been turned away from polling stations in their thousands.
Only a small number had been prevented from voting in the countryside, where Mugabe has most support, ZESN officials said.
Live Box 201373155426494680
Turnout was reported to be high nationwide after queues of Zimbabweans lined up hours before polling opened Wednesday to cast their ballots in a vote that could see Mugabe extend his 33-year rule.
The 89-year-old, Africa's oldest leader, is seeking a seventh term in office but his longtime rival Morgan Tsvangirai hopes the election will usher in a new era for the troubled southern African nation.
Finance Minister Tendai Biti, a senior MDCT member, said the names of thousands of voters were missing from the electoral roll.
Speaking after a meeting with the electoral commission, Biti said: "They are admitting that there's still two million people who are dead on the voters' roll, but they said 'because they're dead, they can't vote'."
The MDC handed its evidence to observers from the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and since no Western groups were allowed to monitor the polls, its account will be closely watched.
Rita Makarau, the head of the election commission, told a news conference in the capital Harare on Wednesday night that those who were unable to vote would be given the opportunity to cast their ballots until midnight.
Makarau reported what she called "a few minor logistical problems" where voting started slowly, and appealed to people to put forward any evidence of voting irregularities.
She confirmed that the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission had received reports of 20 fake voter registration slips in Hatfield, a suburb in the capital Harare.
The matter is being investigated, Al Jazeera's Azad Essa reported from Harare. Tsvangirai, 61, a former trade union leader narrowly beat Mugabe in the last elections in 2008 but boycotted a presidential run-off vote to protest widespread violence against his Movement for Democratic Change party.
A third candidate, Welshman Ncube, leader of a breakaway faction of Tsvangirai's party called MDC-N, is likely to draw votes from Tsvangirai in the western Matabeleland provinces.
Tendai Biti, the third-ranking official in the opposition and finance minister, reported alleged irregularities across several districts, including changes to voters' lists and ballot papers.
But "we are encouraged by the high turnout. We remain confident in spite of all these challenges," Biti said late on Wednesday.
The head of AU observer mission, former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo said reports of irregularities "will be investigated but have not yet been substantiated".
Activists believe a big turnout is likely to favour Tsvangirai, by blunting the impact of any manipulation of voters' rolls. Mugabe, who barred Western observer missions, says allegations of vote-rigging amount to mudslinging by opponents.

Pros: "Cute car, very roomy"
Cons: "Not a mountain vehicle"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1
"I bought this car, used, a year and a half ago. Back in July (3 months ago) I started noticing that it was lagging while coming home. The RPMs would fluctuate between 2 and 3 pretty rapidly. The car would not go any faster than 40 miles an hour. When I would come to stop signs it acts like it is going to stall, then it would hardly move through after I made a stop. It makes a clicking noise while I drive it. My car is still under warranty so we took it to the dealer. They claim there is nothing "wrong" with the car and that what I am experiencing is a feature on the vehicle. My husband called the corporate office and explained that this isn't an issue that we have had and that the problem has got progressively worse. We didn't have the problem in the beginning. They reiterated what the dealer said that it is a "feature" that is put there to cool down the engine, and that they wouldn't fix it. Researching the symptoms come to find out it aligns perfectly with a problem these cars have with the CVT. Nissan has even extended the warranty on this model (and a few others) to cover this issues until 10 years 120,000 miles. They are still saying it is this other thing. So if you live somewhere in higher elavations, where you have to drive up a mountain to your home, rethink get this vehicle. It won't get you there."

"We bought this vehicle in march of 2008 right before I had my son, traded up for more room from a honda civic. Plenty of room for a carseat and all the extra junk that comes with a kid. We are a military family stationed in California and we make frequent road trips home to Texas, and this car is great comfortable, quiet, roomy and good on gas for long drives. We love the 4 cylinder has a lot of torque so it has power but still gets good gas mileage. the ride is smooth, the size is perfect for our family and the extra features bose sound system, steering wheel controls, sunroof are great. so far over 40k miles on it and no mechanical problems. The only complaints i have are that the paint chips easily and the seats stain and are hard to clean because of the texture even after the scotch guard that i paid extra for from the dealership. So far 2 factory recalls but were easily taken care of in one day."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 6,700overall rating 7 of 10rating details
Pros: "fair price (asking @ my dealership was $25500)"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I purchased the Rogue the summer 2011. Thus far I am very pleased and the pros outweigh my 'concerns.' For example, regarding the appearance, I love the sleek exterior (a pearl white finish) and find the driver's seat comfortable compared to my previous car (the Toyota Camry). I enjoy driving 'higher-up' versus in a sedan and feel like this vehicle could take an impact well if involved in an accident. The instrument panel and reverse image capability is great versus other models that show it in your rearview mirror. I also enjoy the I-pod hook-up and option for Sirius satellite radio. Thus far the Rogue drives smoothly and can accelerate well if on a flat/even surface (not so much traveling uphill.) Cons: * Initial turnover/start-up rev's high. A little unnerving, but the dealership advised this is normal * Road noise is also a little loud.. but the sound system compensates this if you like to listen to music loudly. * I'm unable to stop the temp gauge from blinking when temp's drop below 40 degrees F. I find this distracting"

"We bought this car by accident. We had just been in a car accident and only had a couple thousand saved for a down that will somehow help our horrible situation. Well most dealerships couldn't until we ended up in Nissan where a Subaru dealship sent us. They had one car they could get us in but I hated the color, blue. Either way we took it for a test drive and I was amazed. The car is AWD when you need it. So it automatically turns on if the car needed all the tires or you can push a button and it will drive on all 4's. It's great for those who like on seriously winter location, like in Mammoth Lakes, CA. It never failed or slipped on thick ice or snow. It can drive over small burms of snow where a chevy silverado coulnd't for the life of it. It handles great on all the quick turns on the cliff road when visiting Yosemite's mountains. Handles great at all times even when we moved back to the city and having to deal with traffic. It takes of really smooth and excels without jerking you around. I love this car and I completely recommend it to anymore. Only downfall is the trunk space. It's more limited then a bigger SUV of course."

Rated 5 out of 5�by Noah11 A2000 1788 This glove is my favorite. I also own a DP15 but this glove in my opinion, is way better. This glove broke in a lot nicer, and it has a nice shallow pocket. If you are debating whether to get this or the DP15, I would go with this. June 24, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by bemann9 Amazing pro quality glove This glove came off shelf a little stiff, however Dick's steamed the glove to break it in and my son began using it the same day and everyday since. This is an amazing pro quality glove. This is totally worth the price. I would highly recommend this glove to anyone who is serious about baseball. May 28, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5�by A2000dude Great glove This glove is the best. It took about 2-3 weeks to get game ready and is faithful. It has a shallow pocket for double plays and good padding. Amazing glove. October 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by baseball dad AWESOME !!!! My son (12yrs old) plays travel ball and says dad it's sexy... September 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Crashvegas Awesome Glove!!! I researched glove options. Dick's had the best selection in gloves. Can't see buying a glove over the internet. You have to get it in your hand to really see if this is the right glove for you. Dick's selection made it easy to compare bland names and styles. I selected the A2000 based on use by players in the majors but mostly by the feel and comfort. After three weeks I have worked it in just by playing catch and by throwing a baseball into the glove. This for me really gets me to feel the glove and focus on working in the pocket. The A2000 fit is perfect for my hand and the leather starts to mold and shape to just the way I wanted it. But you have to use the glove. Don't let it sit there. I did not do the microwave thing or dip it in warm water. I went the old school way...just plain used it. I am 49 years old and the glove feels just like my favorite glove I had when I was 14 playing with my buddies in the park. August 12, 2014

Two 82nd Airborne Division paratroopers are in jail, accused of selling drugs and body armor to an undercover F-B-I agent.
Court records say the 18-year-old privates offered to sell a military Humvee and a cannon.
Twenty-one-year-old Joffre Cross and 18-year-old Jason Scott Niewoit are charged with selling stolen government property.
The court records show Cross and Niewoit met an undercover F-B-I
agent May 24th in Concord. The records say the men first offered to
sell medical supplies, which the agent didn't buy. They say Cross then offered a desert-camouflage bullet-resistant vest with protective plates and a helmet.
The agent agreed to buy both for 900 dollars and also bought medical drugs.
Attorneys for the men would --not-- talk about the charges.

Tallahassee, Fla.
Raymond Galler has ten-year old twin daughters named Jansyn and Hollyn. Both have a form of autism.
"They're just starting to put sentences together," said Galler. So as far as people saying they don't understand or they're not trained or they're not disciplined, it's hard."
Galler attended Thursday's meeting in Live Oak about resources for parents of kids with special needs.
"The biggest fear is just them actually growing up and people not understanding the needs that they have."
Live Oak police chief Buddy Williams is spear-heading these efforts. His own daughter also has special needs.
"There are people out there that are different than us but they have the same rights and livelihoods as we do," said Williams. "They just need extra care sometimes and I want to make sure that we're doing everything we can to not have another incident like Leo Walker."
Several organizations came out to show GPS monitoring devices that kids can wear. Also, several neon-colored shirts were given out that can make it easier to spot if a child goes missing.
On Saturday, Sept. 13, the first ever "Fishing for Autism Bass Tournament" will be held in Branford, FL.
This will benefit Little Star Center that helps children with autism.

Colorado on Monday became the first state in the country to issue special licenses for recreational-marijuana businesses.
After weeks of scrutiny of applications, officials at the state's Marijuana Enforcement Division slipped 348 approved licenses into the mail and sent them out to stores, product-makers and cultivation facilities. Those businesses could begin producing and selling marijuana to anyone over 21 on Jan. 1, assuming the businesses also have the approval of their local governments.
The number includes 136 marijuana shops, most of which are in Denver. But stores with approved state licenses also pop up in places from Telluride to Alma to Garden City.
Marijuana advocates hailed the finalized licenses as a watershed moment for Colorado's legalization of cannabis, which voters approved in November 2012.
"Colorado will be the first state to have a legal marijuana market for adults," said Mason Tvert, a Denver-based spokesman for the Marijuana Policy Project and one of the leaders of Colorado's legalization push. "We expect it to set an example for other states."
Opponents of legalization, though, said the licenses are another step in what they fear is an increasingly disastrous pot policy.
"We're seeing ... a massive marijuana industry growing before our eyes," said Kevin Sabet, who is with a national anti-marijuana group called Project SAM. "I hope it's not going to be too late before we realize that the road we're on is going to produce a massive public health problem and public safety problem in Colorado."
State marijuana regulators have previously said they would make a decision on the hundreds of recreational cannabis business applications submitted in October by the end of the year. And it appears they denied very few — if any — applications in doing so.
At the end of October, the state had received 136 applications for recreational marijuana shops, 28 applications for marijuana-infused products companies and 174 applications for marijuana-growing facilities. More applications trickled in after the October deadline, and state officials said some of those might also be acted upon by Jan. 1.
The approved licenses sent out Monday are for 136 stores, 31 products companies, 178 growing facilities and three marijuana-testing labs. Julie Postlethwait, a spokeswoman for the Marijuana Enforcement Division, said she couldn't confirm whether any applications have been denied.
Other state officials praised the division for meeting tight deadlines in issuing the licenses. Amendment 64, the measure that legalized marijuana use and limited possession in Colorado for people over 21, gives the state only 90 days to make a decision on an application.
"It has taken an enormous team effort to be able to issue state licenses in the timelines identified in Amendment 64," Barbara Brohl, the head of Colorado's Department of Revenue, said in a statement.
Because would-be pot shops face significant challenges in obtaining local licenses, the state's approval on Monday does not mean that 136 recreational marijuana stores will be open on Jan. 1.
For instance, in Denver — where the state has signed off on applications for 102 recreational marijuana stores — only eight stores have so far cleared all the hurdles in the local licensing process.
And not every business that receives the necessary state and local OKs before the end of the year will be selling recreational marijuana on Jan. 1.
Norton Arbelaez, co-owner of RiverRock Wellness dispensaries in Denver, said he does not plan to add recreational sales until probably mid-February because of all the uncertainty in the new market.
"There are just so many questions in terms of pricing, is there going to be scarcity, or some kind of lack of product in January that is going to lead to the price of the product doubling or tripling?" he said. "There's a lot of unknowns."

News 12 First at Five; December 2, 2008
AIKEN CTY, S.C. --- Nationally, GM and Ford reported big drops in sales in November, but that's a trend that seems to be missing in Augusta. Some dealers tell us they actually sold more new cars this November compared to last year. We're On Your Side with why.
Believe it or not, dealers tell me it's the relatively stronger Augusta economy that's pumping up those new car sales. But, if you ask those dealers about the used cars on the lot -- well, that's a much different story.
Jimmy Scott is just trying to sell any car he can. "Huge discounts, big rebates ends up with big saving for the customers," says Jimmy. He's the General Sales Manager at Henna Chevy on Richland Avenue in Aiken.
Laura McKenzie is just trying to upgrade. "Some of the new conveniences but at a reasonable price within the budget range," says Laura.
Jimmy and Laura, sounds like a winning combination, right? Well, not so fast. Laura's been on a lot of lots like the one she was at on Tuesday, dead ones. "The salesmen come running out to you by the time you pull up because everyone is looking for a sale," says Laura.
"The same numbers have been very uncertain. We had a very lousy October," says Jimmy. But, that lousy October turned into a solid November. He says, Henna saw about a 20% increase in new car sales. A jump he called, "a pleasant surprise."
Even with that solid November though, the number of cars coming off the lot still isn't great. And, neither is Laura's consumer confidence level. "Low... very low," says Laura.
It's consumers who have low confidence on the big gas guzzlers too. They've been sitting on the lot for months, along with those used cars.
Now comes that big bailout everyone is talking about. "There may be a trickle down effect," says Jimmy. "It may affect us, but then again, we don't know."
"Maybe it should have went back to the people," says Laura. "It's our money. We should have gotten it back to spend on vehicles."
So, as the auto industry tried to get the wheels back on, Laura's just trying to get a new set of wheels. Meanwhile, Jimmy is just wheelin' and dealin'.
Several dealers News 12 talked to say used car sales are way down and that's the case just about everywhere. Of course, if any of the Big Three go under, it would mean less cars to choose from and maybe higher prices again. That's something we'll be watching for.

Raise your hand if you're getting tired of losing to Toronto. I know I am. With a 6-3 victory, the Blue Jays have now beaten the Yankees seven times this year, more than every other team in baseball. Tampa Bay is second with six wins against New York. The Jays have won three of the four series the two teams have played in 2010, and I'm getting tired of being right in predicting series' outcomes. I suppose the one thing you might be able to take away from the Jays' dominance of the Yanks is that they incredibly haven't had to face CC Sabathia one time in 12 games, and I'd have to imagine they wouldn't have seven victories against the Yankees this year if that weren't the case.
Regardless, the Jays have severely out-hit and out-pitched the Yankees this season, and watching these teams square off has become borderline torture. Phil Hughes stunk, throwing 3 2/3 innings of five-run ball and using 102 pitches to do so — a shame considering he shut Toronto down last time out. Brett Cecil was every bit as good as Hughes was bad, hurling 8 innings of two-run ball, the only damage coming from a Marcus Thames two-run bomb. The Yankees simply cannot figure Cecil out this year, as he has now thrown 22 innings against them over three starts while surrendering four runs. That's a 1.64 ERA; and he may still get two more outings against the Yanks to see if he can approach Felix Hernandez and his 0.35 ERA against the 2010 Yankees. Blech.
The Yankees actually staged a mini-rally in the top of the ninth. Jason Frasor recorded two quick outs before walking Austin Kearns and Brett Gardner. This prompted Cito Gaston to bring in closer Kevin Gregg despite a four-run lead. Eduardo Nunez greeted Gregg by singling Kearns home, and Derek Jeter then worked a tough 10-pitch at-bat that resulted in a HBP, loading the bases and bringing the potential go-ahead run to the plate. Unfortunately, like several other times this year the Yankees got us excited about a potential comeback but ultimately failed to come through, as Curtis Granderson drove a ball to deep center that was caught by Vernon Wells.
I'm certainly not blaming anyone, as Curtis gave the ball a pretty good ride, nor am I all that upset as I didn't think the Yankees had that realistic a shot at coming all the way back from a four-run deficit, but it has been a bit frustrating seeing the offense go silent for eight innings in a lot of their losses this season before suddenly waking up in the ninth facing too large a deficit to really make a serious go at a comeback.
Getting back to Vernon Wells for a moment, I'm not sure where to find individual batter/pitcher numbers and it could be that perception is greater than reality, but it seems like he absolutely owns Phil Hughes. Not only did he go 3-3 last night with a homer, a triple and four RBIs off Phil, but I still remember Wells ruining Hughes' Major League debut, hitting an RBI double in the first inning that represented the first earned run of Hughes' career.
Additionally, I know I harped on this the other day, but how does Toronto not have a better record? They have ridiculously good starting pitching (and imagine they had held on to Roy Halladay!) a strong bullpen and a pretty monstrous offense. I remain baffled.

A 29-year-old woman on vacation with her family was struck by lightning about 10 a.m. Monday morning.
Kimberly DeBoeuf was staying at the Blue Dolphin Inn on the west end of Panama City Beach. She was about knee deep in the water when she noticed the skies started to darken.
As DeBoeuf was leaving the water, lightning stuck her in her ankles. She temporarily lost consciousness. A vacationing paramedic attended to her until emergency crews could get there.
She was treated and released from a local hospital.

Miss May I Premiere New Music Video, "Hey Mister"
Revolver Magazine | May 30, 2012 | Comments 1 | Tags: Miss May I
Miss May I will release their new album, At Heart, on June 12. (You can preorder it on iTunes.) In anticipation, they are debuting their new video, for the song "Hey Mister," right here right now. The clip was produced by Thunderdown Productions in Columbus, Ohio, and, according to vocalist Levi Benton, shooting the video was "the craziest experience" of his life. Watch "Hey Mister" below, read what else Benton has to say about the vid, and let us know what you think in the comments.
REVOLVER Whats' the song "Hey Mister" about?
LEVI BENTON It's about how I grew up with no father but always missed him. Also, how I came from nothing and, by the end of the day, I don't need him anyways because I got mine and I can be on my own.
Why did you decide to make a video for this song?
This is by far one of our favorite and most heartfelt songs on the entire record and I really feel people can relate and should know the story.
How do you guys come up with the concept for the video?
We wanted to have an abstract image of a man looking for his father through all the elements and have him lead to his father who he confronts by the end of the video.
What was the craziest thing that happened at the video shoot?
To shoot the boat storm scene, we had to go into a scuba-training tank and basically use leaf blowers and fans to create a storm. The most exciting part, though, was when the boat flips over because it really had to with me in it to make it look "legit."

Don't Miss Out: Top 3 Yielding Hold-Rated Stocks: MFA, POM, WPZ
Williams PartnersDividend Yield: 6.80% Williams Partners (NYSE: WPZ) shares currently have a dividend yield of 6.80%. Williams Partners L.P., an energy infrastructure company, focuses on connecting North America's hydrocarbon resource plays to growing markets for natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGL). It operates in two segments, Gas Pipeline and Midstream Gas & Liquids. The company has a P/E ratio of 31.84. The average volume for Williams Partners has been 838,600 shares per day over the past 30 days. Williams Partners has a market cap of $22.2 billion and is part of the chemicals industry. Shares are up 4% year to date as of the close of trading on Friday. TheStreet Ratings rates Williams Partners as a hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its increase in net income, expanding profit margins and good cash flow from operations. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself, disappointing return on equity and generally higher debt management risk. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry average, but is less than that of the S&P 500. The net income increased by 5.3% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from $243.00 million to $256.00 million.
- 37.29% is the gross profit margin for WILLIAMS PARTNERS LP which we consider to be strong. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 14.82% is above that of the industry average.
- Regardless of the drop in revenue, the company managed to outperform against the industry average of 6.5%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 5.0%. The declining revenue has not hurt the company's bottom line, with increasing earnings per share.
- The company's current return on equity has slightly decreased from the same quarter one year prior. This implies a minor weakness in the organization. In comparison to the other companies in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry and the overall market, WILLIAMS PARTNERS LP's return on equity is significantly below that of the industry average and is below that of the S&P 500.
- In its most recent trading session, WPZ has closed at a price level that was not very different from its closing price of one year earlier. This is probably due to its weak earnings growth as well as other mixed factors. Looking ahead, we do not see anything in this company's numbers that would change the one-year trend. It was down over the last twelve months; and it could be down again in the next twelve. Naturally, a bull or bear market could sway the movement of this stock.

Longtime Solar Cookers International information exchange specialist Ramon Coyle advises that it is best to focus on small goals and accomplish them with great intensity. It is better to drive one nail all the way into the wood than to only scratch the surface with ten nails. It is better to plant one tree and nurture it to full growth than to plant a hundred trees that wither away quickly in the dry season. Applied to solar cooker promotion, these comparisons suggest a few other ideas:
- It is better to take the time to teach one woman to become an expert solar cooker user who makes great solar cooked food, than to demonstrate solar cooking to 10 government officials who will nod their heads in agreement but never do anything with the idea.
- It is better to show one skilled handyman or handywoman or carpenter how to make usable solar cookers, than to demonstrate the concept to 300 people who won't be able to make use of the concept because they have no solar cookers and no one to teach them how to use one.
- It is better to make sure that one new solar cook learns all that is needed to make good use of a solar cooker and to gain practice and confidence in using it, than to give brief lessons to ten solar cooks who might later give up on solar cooking at the first obstacle or setback.
Solar Cookers International former East Africa Office in Nairobi, Kenya recommends:
- You may need to be a little cautious as it looks so urgent - yet people's initial magical enthusiasm dies off and they go back to their old ways - so initiating solar cooking projects require a long term commitment and funds, to undertake training and follow - up so that the practice and skill is instilled in the beneficiaries.
- You may also need to familiarize yourself with some basic knowledge of the people and their felt needs - they may not be placing a new cooking technology as their first choice given a chance to prioritize.
- The peoples diets and cooking times may need to be considered - solar cooking is slow and may not always suit some cultures.
- It costs approximately $40 to put a solar cooker in the hands of a family - this may guide you in your funding quest.
- Finally, I feel what you feel that there is need to assist these communities, so do not feel discouraged with the issues above - the greater the challenge the more exciting the success!

Recipes I've Shared:
Can be braised on the stove top, in the oven or placed in a slow cooker.
I have not added olives or feta to this recipe as I often just have the veggies over cottage cheese. They can be added to my calculations later.
I was looking for a dip to make my veggies a little more interesting. Ranch is great but a little too high calorie when made with mayo. This version is made with fat free yogurt and is quite thick. It could be thinned down with a little more milk to make a pourable dressing for salads.
Mostly veg but just a little ham for flavour.
This recipe can be changed in a 100 ways. I've added it only so I can track how many calories are in today's version.
My heart was set on black bean soup but I realized my black beans were actually black beluga lentils. I added 2 19 oz cans of black beans close to the end of cooking and it actually turned out pretty good.
I used up some left over pot roast beef and whatever veg I could find in the fridge. Turned out pretty good, I'll freeze servings and take it for lunch.
Classic Vinegrette
This is a mixture of Kashi Go Lean Crunch cereal, which I find too sweet (and higher cal), and Kashi 7 Grain Puffed cereal, which has no sugar added and reminds me of the big bags of puffed wheat and rice my Mom used to buy when I was a kid. Loved that stuff! Mixed together you get all the flavor without the need to add any sugar.
Lazy way to get the taste of cabbage rolls.
This is so good you will lick the bowl and it's thick enough and lo cal enough to use as a dip. Makes 2 c or 24 1-T servings at 28.6 cals per serving.
Calorie calculations are based on 1 jar of Patak's Madras Cooking sauce.
This is real food made from scratch and using the best quality ingredients available. It takes some time but is well worth it.
These turned out really good. I used Dempsters, Ancient Grains Tortillas for the extra fibre. If using other toritllas adjust recipe accordingly.
This is a nice change from split pea soup.
Absolutely delicious salad that can be served alongside any main dish or just add saute'd chicken or prawns for a fabulous meal. The calorie calculation is for the dressing only but I have given the ingredients for the rest of the salad so you know what is in it and you can calculate your calories depending on how much you would like to eat.
I've taken the main ingredients of cabbage rolls and turned them into a thick and filling soup.
Nice thick and chunky soup.
Not your "classic" dressing but it is very good. Quick and easy to make it definitely beats store bought.
I started out making lentil soup but I had a couple of chicken breasts out and I didn't want to cook two meals. Voila, Chicken Minestrone - not exactly Italian but very good none the less.
Real comfort food for days when you just can't look at another salad.
Nice rice side dish - just for a change.
Using solid white tuna 120 g tin - makes 3 sandwiches at 156.0 cal each.
This is a quick and easy recipe to make when you get home from work.

- Nordstrom net sales, which consist of the full-line and Direct businesses, increased $204 million, or 11.5 percent, compared with the same period in fiscal 2011. Same-store sales increased 11.2 percent. Top-performing merchandise categories included Men's Shoes, Men's Apparel and Kids' Apparel.
- Full-line same-store sales increased 8.1 percent compared with the same period in fiscal 2011. The Midwest and Northwest regions were the top-performing geographic areas relative to the third quarter of 2011.
- Direct sales outpaced the overall Company performance, with an increase of 38 percent, reflecting the Company's ongoing initiatives in e-commerce. This increase was on top of last year's third quarter increase of 33 percent that included the impact of the launch of free shipping and free returns online in late August 2011.
- Nordstrom Rack, which opened thirteen stores during the first nine months of the year, continued to demonstrate strong sales growth in the third quarter with increases in net sales of 16.3 percent and same-store sales of 8.1 percent.
- Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, decreased 37 basis points compared with last year's third quarter, due to costs associated with our enhanced Fashion Rewards program in driving new and deeper customer relationships.
- Retail selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, decreased 30 basis points compared with last year's third quarter. The decrease was primarily due to expense leverage from the Anniversary Sale shift, partially offset by increases in fulfillment costs associated with the substantial growth in online sales.
- In the Credit segment, overall performance continues to improve with delinquency and write-off rates at well below prior-year levels. Given the overall performance of the credit portfolio and underlying economic trends, the reserve for bad debt was reduced by $10 million.
- Earnings before interest and taxes increased $37 million to $277 million, or 9.9 percent of total revenues, from $240 million, or 9.7 percent of total revenues, in last year's third quarter.
- Return on invested capital (ROIC) for the 12 months ended October 27, 2012, was 12.9 percent, compared with 13.7 percent achieved in the prior 12-month period. The Company anticipates that ROIC for fiscal 2012 will exceed ROIC for fiscal 2011. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the closest GAAP measure is included below.
- During the quarter, the Company repurchased 1.5 million of its shares for $85 million. A total of $612 million remains under its existing share repurchase authorization. The actual number and timing of future share repurchases, if any, will be subject to market and economic conditions and applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules.
