St. Jude Medical is challenging long-term resistance, and one
investor is looking for the medical-device stock to break out.
optionMONSTER's Heat Seeker tracking system detected the purchase
of about 3,500 February 45 calls for $0.40 and the sale of a
matching number of February 40 puts for $0.50. Volume was above
open interest in both strikes.
The trade resulted in a net credit of $0.10 and will earn infinite
profits if STJ closes above $45 on expiration. It will lose money
below $40 and expire worthless between those levels. The company
will release earnings before the bell on Jan. 26, so today's
investor is apparently betting on a rally around the news.
STJ is flat on the day at $42.05 in morning trading. The current
price is the same level where it traded in October 2008 immediately
before the market collapsed (red line and arrow on chart). It has
pushed against this range three times since then while making
higher lows, a pattern some chart watchers may consider a bullish
The company said earlier this month that its fourth-quarter results
would be at the high end of its previously forecast range. It's
also been buying back stock, carrying out acquisitions and appears
to be attractively valued with a forward price/earnings ratio of
about 13 times.
The bullish trade, known as a combination strategy, pushed total
option volume in STJ to about 7 times greater than average.

Twice today I had to lean hard on the back brake, both times for peds.
The first: Three guys waiting at the bottom of the Brooklyn Bridge, waiting for traffic. They see me and still walk right in my path. Laid a Steve McQueen skid, fishtailing to a stop at the last second. They were duly impressed; me, I was amazed I hadn't killed anybody.
The second: an entire crowd of jaywalkers crosses against my left turn. I have a lane, but this little Asian woman just sprints right in front of me. Another chance to lay a skid, dropping down to a 35 degree angle and squealing to a halt. She still ran into me, but apologized profusely.
It's not me. It's the Kool-Stops.

RetailMeNot Statement On Recent Press Concerning Commentary On Search Engine Ranking Performance
AUSTIN, Texas, May 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- RetailMeNot, Inc. (NASDAQ:SALE) wanted to take this opportunity to respond to recent articles about RetailMeNot.com's keyword performance on Google.The company believes these reports greatly overstate the impact on RetailMeNot.com. Over RetailMeNot's history, search engines have periodically implemented algorithm changes that have caused traffic to fluctuate. It is too early to judge any potential impact of the latest Google algorithm change. While RetailMeNot's traffic with Google continues to grow year-over-year, the company has experienced some shift in rankings and traffic. The company continues to believe its focus on content quality and user experience will continue to help grow the business, enable consumers to save money and drive retailer sales.With RetailMeNot's 600,000 digital offers from over 70,000 retailers and brands, the company believes it offers consumers the largest selection of digital offers. Since a substantial portion of those offers are not monetized today, traffic fluctuations do not necessarily correlate to financial performance. At this time, RetailMeNot does not have an update to its financial guidance. RetailMeNot has made considerable strides to diversify its traffic sources. In the first quarter 2014, approximately 35% of RetailMeNot's traffic came from sources other than search engines. RetailMeNot has its highest brand awareness metrics in the company's history, and millions of consumers are coming to RetailMeNot directly through its mobile applications. RetailMeNot's strategy remains unchanged. The company will continue to strive to provide consumers with the best user experience and highest quality offers from leading retailers and brands. About RetailMeNot, Inc. RetailMeNot, Inc. ( www.retailmenot.com/corp/ ) operates the world's largest marketplace for digital offers. The company enables consumers across the globe to find hundreds of thousands of digital offers from retailers and brands. RetailMeNot, Inc. estimates that $3.5 billion in paid retailer sales were attributable to consumer traffic from digital offers in its marketplace in 2013. Its websites experienced more than 590 million visits in the last twelve months. Its mobile apps have been downloaded over 16 million times. The RetailMeNot, Inc. portfolio includes www.RetailMeNot.com , the world's largest marketplace for digital offers in the United States; www.RetailMeNot.ca in Canada; www.VoucherCodes.co.uk , the largest marketplace for digital offers in the United Kingdom; www.Deals.com in Germany; www.Actiepagina.nl , a leading digital offer site in the Netherlands; http://www.Bons-de-Reduction.com and www.Ma-Reduc.com , leading digital offer sites in France; www.Poulpeo.com , a leading digital offer site with cash back in France; and www.Deals2Buy.com , a leading digital offer site in North America.

For this week's cover story on the uproar in Medina over the firing of Police Chief Jeff Chen--who bought machine guns to protect Bill Gates and other Gold Coast billionaires from terrorists--we caught up with another former Medina police chief, Joe Race, in Saipan, the largest island in the Northern Mariana chain.
Joe in paradise.
Now retired after 45 years of police work that includes walking a beat in Los Angeles, instructing cops in Kosovo and Bosnia, and becoming police chief of all Micronesia, he has tried to let his days in Medina, running errands for the rich, fade in the rearview mirror. "Medina was about the most frustrating of my police experience," says the ex-chief, content these days to author a series of books on a variety of topics from true crime to cooking."The department often got requests like 'UPS is coming by today--can you sign for my package?' or 'I got this ticket in Tacoma, can you take care of it for me?' " Race says.
Medina's finest also responded to complaints about raccoons eating from the dog's dish and Canada geese frolicking in a swimming pool, Race recalls. In fairness, all chiefs are bombarded with silly requests, Race points out, but Medina had an excessive share of "spoiled brats" and "jerks," he says.
"I don't know Jeff," he says of Chen. "But I can just imagine what he's going through."
Chen is accused of questionable practices as chief of the wealthy Eastside enclave for seven years, including writing memos under the names of other officers to quash traffic tickets and order equipment. But a crowd of powerful supporters wants him back, and prefers that the town's city manager, who fired Chen, is sent packing instead.
The ex-chief, who during the same period went through a messy divorce in which he found out his ex was having a thing with a member of the Bandidos motorycle gang and allegedly posted racy pics of herself on the net using his police computer, wants his job back or at least a settlement from the city. By most accounts, his fight is headed to court.
Joe Race urges Chen to do something like he did when he split from the squabbling community in 1997. "Make a settlement," he says, "and get out of Dodge." If nothing else, it's better, he says, than responding calls to "Please take my trash out on Wednesday because I'll be hunting in Mexico."

The Pista is drilled for brakes, I'm assuming you mean a relatively new Pista and not a Super Pista? If there's a hole drilled in the seat stay bridge all you need to mount a rear brake is your brake lever, a normal rear caliper, cable, housing and either clip-on cable guides, adhesive cable guides, or zipties to keep the housing secured against the frame.

Just give fixed a shot, there's nothing to be afraid of especially if you have your front brake on still, flip it to the side with the track cog and take it for a spin around your neighborhood I'm positive you'll enjoy it, and there's no reason to worry. Also don't be confused, everyone worth listening to here is saying use both brakes, go get a cheap set up for the rear brake, as soon as you have money for it. Should be alright until then if you just ride easy.
well advocating only a front brake on a freewheel is literally the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
coming from a motorcycle background, ive seen statistics/studies showing how much front and rear contribute to braking power, and yes the rear adds enough to be significant. sure, motorcycles are a different beast but the principle remains the same: a rear brake (on a free wheel) can provide the necessary stoppage to prevent a disaster where having only a front wouldn't.
on a fixed you have that redundancy so you really dont need that rear caliper. not so with the freewheel. putting someone's life on the line because you don't think a rear is important enough is just plain stupid.
then again im also opposed to these people running brakeless, which i know also jives with the mentality of some on this board (cuz sw8 aesthetics take precedent over safety).
Reread my post, try and actually understand what I'm saying, then try again.
Motorcycles are very different. You have a 150 pound person on a 500 pound motorcycle, vs. a 150 pound person on top of a 15 pound bike. A bicycle's center of gravity is much much higher. Motorcycles are not relevant.
Dunno why people fit brakes to bicycles, they only start arguments.

The man, the machine, the watch.

Thursday, Nov. 17th
The Crocodile
Last night's Red Bull Music Academy sponsored show was a tribute to the Akai MPC sampler--you've probably seen Shabazz Palaces and/or Kanye West tapping beats out live on the iconic machine--with AraabMuzik, Jeremy Ellis, and Party Supplies performing in four competitive then collaborative rounds to demonstrate their mastery of the instrument. As in any competition, there were winners and then there were losers. Less graciously, they could've called this the "Let's All Embarrass Party Supplies Tour 2011." Let's take it round by round.
Round 1: Introductions
Jeremy Ellis--skinny, redheaded--came out and played a set of three MPCs set up on stands angled towards the audience, so that in addition to the video screens occasionally showing close ups of the artists hands in between other visuals, the audience could watch him work. AraabMuzik came out, 5-foot nothing, hat brim pulled down over his face, diamond-encrusted watch looking heavy, and blows Ellis' intro away with a torrent of grindy rave saws and beat blasts. Finally, the night's MC, who had given properly enthused introductions to AraabMuzik and Jeremy Ellis, seemed almost confused introducing Party Supplies as the "latest addition to Fools Gold," before the dude--in Fool's Gold t-shirt and a hoodie--came out and breezed through a few minutes of sub-Daft Punk synthy filter house, doing less real rapid tapping than superfluously caressing the (not touch sensitive) side panel of his machine and pulling his hands off its buttons with extra dramatic flourish. Winner: AraabMuzik
Round Two: Composition
Here, each producer would create and perform a new track based on the same set of 16 samples provided by producer 9th Wonder. AraabMuzik played maybe two minutes, all hi-hat flurry and bomb blasts and screams and relatively light on his trademark "you are now listening to AraabMuzik" drop. Party Supplies played a little, trumpet-y house break then dropped it down to half-time. Ellis first ran through the samples one by one--basically an octave of notes and a bunch of drum sounds--then instantly hit a good, beat-heavy groove, fingers working fast, switching it up to use his chin to hit the sample pads without losing the beat. At one point he pulled his hand back from his machines and said into the mic, "I stop, the music stops," which could've been a sly dig at Party Supplies' seemingly longer, self-sustaining loop programming. At the end he shouted, "composition woot woot," but for him the round seemed more like a demonstration. For all that, though, AraabMuzik's set was still the burner. Winner: AraabMuzik
Round 3: Action
Party Supplies was up first, but AraabMuzik walked out next to him and started working at his MPC, loading up sounds for his next round like no one else was there. After a minute, AraabMuzik left and Party Supplies did a low intensity set flipping pop artists (Bruce Springsteen, Edward Sharpe) into easy house jams--to be fair, that Edward Sharpe remix is actually pretty nice. Up front in the crowd, four people alone were raving so hard that I couldn't tell if they were on E or just the dude's street team. Ellis came out and sonned Party Supplies again with another hella dexterous groove, at one point going one handed, boasting, "hold up, one hand's gonna rock out some shit like these guys," and meaning it. He used his elbows to hit the pads, he picked his cheapest sampler up and bashed it against his chin on some Hendrix-type shit, he dropped the plinky "Popcorn" synth line for a second, the Detroit native sang along to some Motown type soul numbers as mutated through J Dilla, and he closed with a shout out to local institutions Decibel and Suntzu Sound. AraabMuzik walked out still wrapping up a cell phone call, then proceeded to drop a set of tranced-out rave synths and machine gun hip hop beats. At this point, the four person rave up front devolved into an omnidirectional dry-hump. Winner: Ellis
Round 4: Collaboration
The congenial Ellis announced, "We all got different roles--I'm gonnna do the samples, AraabMuzik's gonna rock the beats, Party Supplies..." and then I swear to god he just trailed off. Anyway, their collaborative groove had everyone meeting in the middle, not really showcasing any one person's style or talents that well. It was kind of a lackluster climax, really. In the end, despite the round-based sets, some people were clearly openers and some people were clearly headliners. AraabMuzik has the quicker fingers in terms of pure taps-per-second, but Ellis has the superior showmanship and charm. Might have to call it a tie. One thing's for sure, though. Loser: Party Supplies. (Sorry.)

10 Steps to Turning Your Life Around
Speak Up
Speak Up
Never let fear keep you from speaking up. God hasn't given you a spirit of fear, but has imbued you with power, love, and a good, sound mind to give voice to your dreams, visions, ideas, and thoughts. So what if you miss the mark with a speech or message? So what if you stumble a bit, mumble, or stutter? Find your voice. Work on your diction. Work on your timing. Work on your voice, presentation, substance, and style. Speak up.
Steps to Speak Up
- Pray and listen to God's leading and direction right now. Ask God to help you to "open your mouth and increase your territory" (prayer of Jabez in 1 Chronicles 4:10).
- Prepare what you are going to say and then practice articulating your message clearly.
- Embrace a bold and courageous attitude.
- Speak up and create an environment and legacy for others to speak up. Start working with those around you.

Heyy, I'm Lynsey.I am certain that for most of my life(me being 18 now), i have struggled with, in the least, social anxiety. Not long ago i went through a traumatic experience, i was around 15. I was diagnosed with anxiety, ADD and ptsd and had meds for all.
After moving from Wyoming to Arkansas, me still being 15, i dropped my meds and did fine for a while. After my 16th birthday and after starting the 11th grade, something went wrong. I started driving myself crazy. I couldn't get it out of my head that my mind didn't work right. I thought i was either crazy or mentally handicapped. I thought i had to manually operate my mind. Yeah it was weird. I had a really bad case of dissociation. I felt like i was inside my mind and my body wasn't a part of me.
My parents just did not understand what was going on with me. I would cry to my parents almost every day saying things like "I'm not normal", "I can't think", "I'm going crazy". I was so close to getting scanned in a hospital to see if i had anything unusual going on with my brain, and my mom was so close to enrolling me in a mental hospital.
My therapy brought it to my attention to all those thoughts that i was obsessed with were coming from my anxiety.... Things slowly got really awesome for me.
I really tried to change who i was. I go to college with a lot of southern students, since i live in the small farm town of Beebe, Ar. I tried to change my personality to fit all those southern girls around me. All this mental stress drove me into a small depression. I stopped hanging out with people and just stayed in my room(I live on campus). I wanted to return to that person i was at the end of my senior year so bad.
I drove myself crazy again. Now I don't know how to explain how i'm feeling. My mind is a mess. As i write this, there are so many thoughts that fill my mind such as "You don't have anxiety", "You can't have anxiety because you don't have thoughts" and crazy things like that. I'm confused. It's like i'm having anxiety that i don't have anxiety. But it doesn't feel like anxiety.
It feels like truth. I'm trying to relax and just live my life but it doesn't feel that simple. I feel again like my mind isn't normal, but i don't know how to explain it this time. Last time i knew exactly how i felt and it all fits into the category of anxiety. what i'm feeling now just feels like confusion and fogginess.

I have certain calendar event reminders that are not issuing on the iPhone (3GS, latest iOS 4.3.5) after syncing from iCal on the desktop with a CalDAV calendar running on Mac OS X 10.6 Server.
Most appointments do issue alerts properly, but I've noticed ones that have some or all of the following attributes are a problem:
1 - recurring on alternating weeks
2 - alarm set for day before the event (e.g. 7pm the night before or "5 hours before all-day event" as calendar sees it)
3 - alarms that do not conform to the short list of pre-set iPhone calendar alarms (5 min, 10 min, 15 min,... 2 hours before, 12 hours before)
I have a feeling it's #3 or a combination of all. I've tried deleting and re-adding the calendar on the iPhone. I've also verified that the time zones match between phone and desktop iCal. In my case, the alarm never happens for these specific events, not that it happens much later or something.
Anyone experience this issue?

Last week, I received an email from one of Whole Foods' PR people:
After reading your [June 4] article 'The Frugal Gourmet Picnicker' we'd like>"/>
Last week, I received an email from one of Whole Foods' PR people:
After reading your [June 4] article 'The Frugal Gourmet Picnicker' we'd like to offer you a challenge! We'd like to invite you to come into Whole Foods Market and have a cooking lesson with our Chef, and cook up a meal for 4, spending the same amount as you did for your picnic -- $7.50 per person. We'd really like to show you and your readers that we can do value too!
You should see what they have to say, said my editor, and I scheduled a time to meet with Shannon Herman, the chef/lead cooking instructor of the Roosevelt Square store, and Mary Hernandez, its marketing specialist. What I didn't realize until I walked into the demonstration kitchen was that this wasn't a corporate PR stunt: The women were taking this challenge personally. Turns out, the kicker -- "Who can afford Whole Foods anymore?" -- under the title of my article about seeing what kind of picnic I could compose from ingredients I found at food outlets got the Roosevelt staff riled up. ("What was the carbon footprint for that meal?" was another one of the complaints.)
Not only are the Whole Foodies getting a testy about the "Whole Paycheck" nickname, they're starting to fight back.
Shannon -- a funny, quick woman who taught at SSCC and PCC prior to coming to the store -- presented me with the day's menu as well as a receipt showing me she'd spent less than $30 on it (basic pantry items like spices, oil, and vinegar didn't count in their challenge, since I used my own for my picnic):
The onglet was an inexpensive cut of high-quality beef (at $8.99 a pound), the duck and cheese were small amounts from the deli -- $2.20 for the paper-thin-sliced duck, $3.08 for the Terre des Volcans cheese -- and the chickpeas and naan (olive oil, too) were Whole Foods' house brand.
I was asked to
demonstrate my chops help out. The three of us cooked up the meal -- grilling off the peaches and steak, shaving chocolate to sprinkle on the baguette slices and melting it in the oven, dressing the arugula and the chickpea salads in their bowls. The food was easily prepared in 30 minutes. (My picnic for 8 took two hours to one guy to prepare, plus, oh, 8 hours of shopping? 12? But time wasn't the point of the exercise.)
As we chopped and stirred, Shannon immediately wanted to know: "What did you really think of Grocery Outlet?"
Well, I told her, I love Groce Out for the sheer novelty of some of the products (Spam Singles are always in stock), but I had to expend more effort making the products I found there tasty. However, I did find decent things to cook with. I also told her that I believe that food media people like me and food retailers like Whole Foods focus too much on the quality of prepared ingredients, deemphasizing basic cooking technique.
Since I get to expand on my answer in this blog, I have to add: Of course selecting the freshest produce and good-quality meat is critical. However, I think shoppers have decided that if we buy a $30 olive oil at Metropolitan Market that we read about in Bon Appetit it won't matter so much that we don't know how to make a kickass vinaigrette with it. I'd rather have a properly pan-roasted "natural" chicken breast served plain -- with golden, bacony skin and clear juices that run out when I cut into the meat -- than overcooked Smart Chicken with a $6 dab of hazelnut-mango-Vietnamese-cinnamon relish on it.
My question to them: Is Whole Foods finding, as the economy slows down, that perceptions of the market as expensive are hurting sales? Sales at the store haven't gone down very much at all, Mary replied, and she thought that was because of its loyal customer base.
We sat down to eat, accompanying the food with an $8 bottle of rosé. The food was smartly composed and tasted as good as it looked, and I'm definitely going to add to my list of tricks Shannon's method of heating up whole spices in oil and using both to make a warm dressing. Here's another closeup:
As we talked and ate, it did slip out that Shannon had tried out these dishes the night before, and even later that some higher-ups had looked the menu over. And I have the faintest suspicion that they did some very careful measuring to make sure the price tag for the products we used came out at $29.96. But it was a good amount of good food for a reasonable price, and I conceded the Whole Foods staffers had made their point.
What, then, are your tips for shopping at Whole Foods on the cheap? I asked Mary and Shannon. Their response: Buy what's at the height of the season and look for the Whole Foods house brand. To those, I'd add: Stick rigorously to your shopping list. One of the problems I experience is that I always walk out of Whole Foods with $25 extra of delicious-looking cheeses, pastas, and packaged products that I know I can't use in the immediate future.
One more step that Whole Foods is taking to combat the "Whole Paycheck" image: Every Sunday at 10:30 a.m., a Roosevelt Square staff member leads a "Market Secrets and Values Revealed" tour of the store, pointing out where the bargains lie. That's a service that Safeway and Grocery Outlet definitely don't provide.
Correction: Jeebus! Shannon was originally referred to as "Donna" in this blog item.

May 2016
What's the aim?
The Campaign Against Climate Change is putting pressure on the government about their backtracking on climate change.
April 2016
On 5 May 2016, Winchester City Council (WCC) elections cover all Council seats in every ward. This is because the number of wards and councillors is being cut, and many ward boundaries have been changed.
We thought you would want to know what candidates will do about climate change and related matters such as energy.
The Mayor of Winchester Cllr Angela Clear presented prizes to six winners of the Re:Design Challenge at the Re:Design Exhibition on Monday 25 April. The exhibition at the Tourist Information Centre was an showcase of all of items that were entered into Re:Design challenge bringing the Great Waste year to an exciting close.
2014 and 2015 were the hottest years since records began in 1850. February 2016 had the highest monthly temperature anomaly ever seen relative to the average from 1951-1980 and broke the record set by the previous month.These startling observations caused scientists to take a new look at the 15-year, so-called hiatus in global warming that appears to have started in 1998.
An all-party Parliamentary group has been set up to look at whether economic growth is always a good thing or whether there are environmental and social limits beyond which further growth is too risky. Find out more

The entries in the Winchester Station Approach Design Competition will be on display in Winchester Guildhall for a week starting 9 May, including the competition winner's.
Sparsholt College's planning application was rejected 7 votes to 1 at the Winchester City Council Planning Committee on Thursday 21 April, even though the Planning Department recommended approval.
WinACC will be given the profits from the sales of "This changes everything", a conceptual album of original music on climate change, to be released on 3 June by Splendid Fred, The University of Winchester's own record label. Please buy it when it's released - available on iTunes.
The Re:Design exhibition at Winchester Guildhall from 26 to 30 April is an exciting showcase of useful and attractive items for home or work, all made from resources that are usually thrown away. Children and people of all ages made the items on display as entries for The Great Waste Re:Design challenge "making waste into something wonderful" .
Dresses made by students from local colleges and schools at the Re:Design launch will also be on shown, including the winning dress from Kings School.

After applymovement you need waitmovement. Other than that there doesn't seem to be any other errors, most likely you have the script var value/number messed up in A-map. Double check that.

re-routing stink stack?
I'm opening my ceiling in my camp and creating a loft area. A stink stack runs directly through the middle of the loft area. I would like to re-rune the stack without cutting another hole in the roof or tearing into the plumbing below.
Can I: 90 the line where it enters the floor in the loft, run horizontally to the outer wall/eve, then run it up the roof/rafter line to where it would re-connect to the line where it goes through the roof?

Meet the humble pitaya, 2013's super fruit
- From: news.com.au
- January 17, 2013
GOJI and acai berries, pomegranates and papayas have all been hailed as super fruits in the past. This year, it's the turn of the pitaya.
The pitaya - otherwise known as Dragon Fruit - is the fruit of a species of cactus that originates in South America and is now grown in Thailand, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and the Philippines. It is just as beneficial for your body eaten fresh or dried.
The green-leaved fruit is full of edible black seeds, its flesh is sweet and sharp and tastes similar to kiwi fruit. It is rich in fibre, calcium and vitamin C - approximately 50 percent of your daily vitamin C requirement can be met by eating 100 g of dried dragon fruit.
Pitaya helps lower cholesterol, and the fruit's vitamin B-3 content is also thought to enhance the appearance of your skin, keeping it smooth.
In some countries, diabetes sufferers are urged to eat pitaya to regulate blood sugar levels.
To choose the best pitaya, look for firm, bright pink skin, a flexible stem, bright green leaves and a fresh tropical smell. To eat, cut the fruit in half and dig out the flesh.
Even if the health benefits are hype, a pitaya will look absolutely glorious in your fruit bowl!
Enjoy the health benefits today and read more on how to prepare dragon fruit at taste.com.au

Hi, Does anyone know where I can purchase Dragonfruit from? I used to be able to get it from the local Safeway/Woolworths, but haven't seen it for well over a year.

Check out these bargain stocks
Downsizing may be appealing, but consider these first
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
California-based retail real estate investment trust (REIT),
The Macerich Company
), reported fourth-quarter 2013 adjusted funds from operations
(AFFO) per share of 94 cents, surpassing the Zacks Consensus
Estimate by a penny and the year ago figure by 4 cents.
Escalation in revenues, overall portfolio occupancy and
re-leasing spreads aided the quarterly results. Total revenue
moved up 15.2% year over year to $289.5 million and comfortably
beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $266 million.
Macerich provided guidance for full-year 2014 FFO per share
and expects it to be in the range of $3.50 - $3.60. However,
the range is lower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $3.62.
Share price of Macerich fell 1.27% in the after hours trading
session on Jan 4.
For full-year 2013, Macerich reported AFFO per share of $3.53
on revenues of $1.08 billion. Results were substantially higher
than the prior-year AFFO per share of $3.18 on revenues of $891.9
Inside the Headlines
As of Dec 31, 2013, mall portfolio occupancy upped 80 basis
points (bps) year over year to 94.6%. Also, same centers net
operating income (NOI) advanced 4.1% year over year to $729.6
For full-year 2013, mall tenant annual sales increased 8.7%
year over year to $562 per square foot. In addition, re-leasing
spreads rose 17.2% on a year-over-year basis.
Notable Portfolio Activities
In tune with its portfolio restructuring activity, Macerich
sold 4 non-core properties for total gross proceeds of about $332
million on a pro rata basis. The divested assets were the Ridgmar
Mall in Fort Worth, Texas; Salisbury Centre in Salisbury,
Maryland; and Chesterfield Towne Center in Richmond, Virginia.
This also includes the divestiture of Rotterdam Square in
Schenectady, New York subsequent to the quarter end.
Notably, for non-core assets sold since the start of 2013,
Macerich's pro rata share proceeds were $864 million. The
activity diluted the 2013 FFO per share by 12 cents.
As of Dec 31, 2013, Macerich had cash and cash equivalents of
$102.3 million compared to $102.6 million as of Sep 30, 2013. The
company had a total debt of $6.0 billion, down from $6.3 billion
at the end of the prior quarter.
Our Take
Macerich came up with decent results this quarter on the back
of improved operating portfolio performance. Although the
divestitures are expected to weigh upon the near-term earnings,
it would aid in enhancing the company's portfolio base and bodes
well for long term. Going forward, we expect the company's rising
mall tenant annual sales per square foot and re-leasing spreads
to pave way for strengthening of top-line.
Currently, Macerich carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Investors
interested in REIT- Equity Trust - Retail industry may consider
stocks like
Federal Realty Investment Trust
American Assets Trust, Inc.
) and
Glimcher Realty Trust
). All these stocks carry a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
Note: FFO, a widely accepted and reported measure of REITs
performance, are derived by adding depreciation, amortization
and other non-cash expenses to net income.

National & World Ag News Headlines
Ice Cream Spill in Iowa Reaches Plymouth County Stream
USAgNet - 05/20/2011
About 1,000 gallons of dilute ice cream solution spilled in Le Mars early Wednesday morning with some of the solution reaching a tributary of the Floyd River in Plymouth County.
The spill occurred about 1 a.m. at Wells Enterprises due to operator error. Workers at the manufacturing plant estimated spillage at between 800 and 1,200 gallons. They placed special mats over the storm sewer grates and successfully prevented some of the solution from running into the storm sewer.
The rest ran into the storm sewer where it mixed with water from a cooling tower and ran into the tributary. With stream levels high, and the relatively small amount and dilution of the ice cream solution, the DNR does not anticipate a fish kill or other environmental impact.
The DNR will send the company a letter citing them for late reporting. Spills and hazardous conditions must be reported to the DNR as soon as possible but not later than six hours after the onset or discovery. Report spills to the DNR's 24-hour spill line at 515-281-8694.
Depending upon specific conditions and quantities, products high in organic matter--like milk, ice cream, silage and hay -- can cause oxygen levels in streams to drop, resulting in the loss of aquatic life.

pretty nice edit. it's over the top but not in a bad way, i don't see why some people are so over critical of photography art.
Oh never mind, I never said I'm the greatest photographer in the world, in the end it's just a hobby and I do it mostly for me, so it's ok if what I do does not please everybody.
Very nice!
The over exposure is what makes this, I quite like this.

Mentor Headlands on the east side is the largest beach in the area, but busy, except spring and fall. Edgewater State Park is a very large field and so long as the winds are primarily North and West it's wonderful. Some trees though and South winds gusty across a major cliff. Hopefully we can meet sometime at the field.

I read through most of the posts but haven't posted yet. I guess I am "older" since I was 35 when I had DS and will be 36 when I have this lo. Like most my age, this was a good time for me because I truly enjoyed my 20's/early 30's with friends and dh. What is good for one is not good for all, so there's no real right or wrong answer.
We all have our reasons as to why we had them so young or older. I am really interested in people's background with respect to this question and how it influenced your decisions.
For example, my parents are immigrants so they pushed college on my sister and I- but not in a pressuring way. That's all our mom talked about so that's all we really knew. In our minds, it was a given that after high school, college was the next step.
We both went to college, joined sororities, were around peers with the same life goals. As such, I continued to law school and a large percentage of the people I know are attorneys. All of my friends, with the exception of 3, have college or post-graduate degrees. Same with my sister and DH. So in our group of friends, although some may have married after college, everyone is basically a white collar worker, work hard, like to travel, and like getting together. We live in cities where the median income is $100k. We live in So Cal.
Although I do have many sorority sisters who married shortly after college, since most of the people I know I met during or after law school, the majority of my current friends started marrying in their early/mid 30's and are now having kids.
I read a statistic that many pregnant teens will go on to see their children get pregnant in their teens. I beleive there has been a decrease in the last couple of years or so. I did see a handful of posts on the other thread where some of the younger moms, 19-22, also had parents who had them that young.
So, did your background, socio-economic status, your friends, your surrounding, the resources provided to you, have an effect on when you thought you were ready for a baby?

This is a repost from my old blog "Butts I'd Like to Sniff":
I've written posts about Trish Stratus's ass, Stacy Keibler's ass, and now I'm writing one about current WWE diva AJ Lee's ass.
I'm going to get this out of the way: it's funny how, when I was a kid and teenager, WWF/E programming and its divas were so wanton and salacious. I mean, back then, WWF/E would have bra and panties matches (diva vs. diva — the winner would prevail after stripping her opponent from her clothes), the divas would dress as slutty as possible (I had no problem with that!) and plenty of divas would sign a deal to have a Playboy photoshoot! At my age, those ol' formative years, I would drool over the thoughts of sniffing, licking and fucking the assholes of Trish Stratus, Stacy Keibler, Torrie Wilson, etc. after a match. I always wondered how sweaty their assholes would be!
Today, the WWE product is very vanilla, PG-oriented and the divas are quite bland compared to the days of old. Now, that doesn't mean that the women over the years are less attractive — it's just that they are more reserved and less slutty, which saddens me now that I'm an adult and practically hornier than ever. I stopped watching WWE in 2004, but my interest was piqued in 2011 when I heard The Rock (someone I looked up to as a kid/early teen) was coming back. Now, from 2004 onwards, I tuned in here and there, but the entertainment value wasn't nearly as high in quality as it was from 1997-2002, but that's another story for a different blog/place.
Nonetheless, there's a diva today by the name of AJ Lee. She's petite, but has incredible legs and a CUTE ass! Now, Trish Stratus and Stacy Keibler top my "Hall of Fame" when it comes to pro wrestling divas and their booties and there is no diva of today that will ever be able to adequately compare, but for a modern day booty-wielder, AJ Lee's ass is cute, and I wouldn't hold back for a second if I had the shot to bury my nose in between her ass cheeks and sniff. Given that opportunity, I think my tongue would be wore out because AJ's asshole would be drenched in my spit/slobber.
AJ Lee's gimmick is to be a 'crazy bitch'. Right now she's a heel ('bad'), and she's done a pretty nice job at it. The whole bad girl, slutty angle has worked well with her. Her facial expressions, eye tilts, and oh fuck it, fuck all of that unnecessary nonsense. Fucking WWE needs to put her in a goddamn thong and have her prance around the ring. We need to see these modern girls show some skin. Good god. There was a WWE diva that I'll do a post on someday by the name of Eve Torres — I also want to sniff her asshole. She's no longer part of the company, but Eve played the whole heel secretary role well… short skirts, amazing legs and an ass that needed to be SKLF'ed (sniffed, kissed, licked and fucked).
But back to AJ, digressing from the sidetracking above, she's hot as fuck, and I want to sniff her asshole.

It's my first message here. So, accept my apologises if I post this question on the wrong place or if this question has been answered yet (I looked around on the internet but did not find anything).
Well, I had no problem with my wifi. The security of my network is WPA. One day, my laptop which runs Mac OS X V10.6.8 (updated) stopped to connect automatically to my network. And now, when I click on my network, the laptop tries to connect with 802.1X protocol.
Two events can explain this behavior :
* First one, I was low-battery and my computer shut down without any warning. Maybe this damage the wifi card but I don't know how to test that.
* Second one, I installed a wifi repeater that use 802.11n protocol. Previously, my network was 802.11g. I declared the wifi card of my laptop on my repeater (because I don't allow unknown cards to connect to my network). But, perhaps, my laptop has memorized the 802.11g network. I don't know but I think that the signal is weak when I am near the repeater.
If you can help me, I would appreciate.
Sorry for my poor english. It is not my mother tongue as you can figure it out.

The 2014 Numbers Are In: FDA's Orphan Drug Program Shatters Records
By Kurt R. Karst
As appears on FDA | Law Blog
Earlier this month in a post concerning the Orange Book we mentioned our love of data and discussed how solid figures can reveal some interesting conclusions. After all, it's rather difficult – and dangerous – to come to a conclusion without having as many facts and as much data as possible. Or, as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote in The Adventure of the Copper Beeches, one of the Sherlock Holmes series of stories: "'Data! Data! Data!' he cried impatiently. 'I can't make bricks without clay.'" Indeed! And the clay we have to play with today to make some bricks are the latest data from FDA's Office of Orphan Products Development ("OOPD") on orphan drug designations and approvals.
Although FDA's agency-wide performance management system, known as FDA-TRACK, provides some information on orphan drug designations and approvals, that system is not up-to-date. So we have to get our data from other sources – primarily (though not exclusively) from FDA's Orphan Drug Designations and Approvals database. As we've done in some previous years, we culled information from that database, which OOPD populates with data on a rather frequent basis. The database is also constantly being refined to better reflect what orphan drug designations have been granted, what orphan drugs have been approved, and what the relevant periods of orphan drug exclusivity apply to. We understand that the database will be revamped soon (perhaps later this year) to make it a more useful and user-friendly resource.
The three metrics we've historically followed are: (1) the number of orphan drug designation requests received by OOPD; (2) the number of orphan drug designation requests granted by OOPD; and (3) the number of orphan drugs approved. In 2014, records were shattered for all three metrics, with an astounding 467 designation requests (a nearly 35% increase over 2013), an astonishing 293 orphan drug designations granted (a nearly 13% increase over 2013), and a whopping 49 orphan drug approvals (a 53% increase over 2013). Wow! That's an amazing output for FDA's orphan drug program (and, in particular, for OOPD).
Below are three tables – one for each metric – showing the year-by-year numbers since 1983.
When we add up all of the numbers since 1983, FDA has approved 511 orphan drugs, granted 3,280 orphan drug designations, and received 4,738 orphan drug designation requests. Of the 511 approvals, some drugs have been approved for more than a single rare disease, and sometimes a single orphan drug designation has been the platform for multiple orphan drug approvals (and multiple periods of 7-year exclusivity).
So what does it all mean? Well, clearly orphan drugs are trending up – way up! And there's no indication of a slowdown any time soon. (In fact, we understand that OOPD is already on pace to break the 2014 record for the number of orphan drug designation requests received by the Office.) The data also show that the Orphan Drug Act has been an overwhelming success (for both patients and the drug and biotechnology industries). Of course, a successful program breeds copycats. We've seen that with the creation of orphan drug programs in other countries modeled after the Orphan Drug Act. It's also happening on out own backyard, however. Consider, for example, the Generating Antibiotic Incentives Now Act ("GAIN Act") (FDC Act § 505E), and the Dormant Therapies Act provisions included in the draft 21st Century Cures Act (see our previous post here). The roots for both of those items can almost certainly be traced back to the Orphan Drug Act.

In a new interview with Medscape, Marshall L. Summar, chief of genetics and metabolism at Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. and NORD board member, talks about the importance of patient registries for rare diseases, and the role that NORD's patient registry program has in helping patients and educating doctors. According to Dr. Summar, registries can accelerate the process of treatment and help physicians address the big knowledge gap about what happens in the day-to-day lives of patients. read more >
Today, NORD Vice President Diane Dorman is providing remarks before the FDA Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee on the importance of distinguishable names for biologics as a fundamental core of maximizing the benefits for patients and minimizing any potential harm from biosimilars. This is part of NORD's work to provide advocacy on behalf of the entire rare disease community. Read Diane's remarks here and follow the conversation online under the hashtag, #ODAC.
If you have supported NORD with a donation at any time during its 31+ year history, we thank you. The wonderful work that NORD has accomplished since 1983 on behalf of rare disease patients and their families wouldn't have been possible without the support of many caring individuals.
NORD works very hard to be a careful steward of donated funds, keeping operating costs low so that 95 cents of every dollar goes directly to programs and services for patients.
We know that you receive many solicitations for contributions at this time of year, but we believe that NORD has earned a place at the top of your list through its history of dedicated leadership and service.
And we are excited to tell you about two unique opportunities to drive progress for patients in 2015: promoting state-based advocacy through NORD's Rare Action Network™ (RAN) and advancing research with an innovative new platform NORD has developed for patient registries and natural history studies. read more >
Alena Galan is a happy 16-year old girl full of life and wise beyond her years. She can light up a room with her quick-witted charm and energetic personality. She loves to sing, dance, play guitar and violin, and like most teenagers, enjoys spending time with friends. Alena has a deep-rooted appreciation of life and cherishes every moment – all with good reason.
On January 24, 2002 Dr. Robert Marion, director of Children's Evaluation & Research Center, Albert Einstein College of Medicine diagnosed Alena with mucopolysaccharidoses VI (MPS VI) or Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome, a rare inherited lysosomal storage disorder. Individuals with MPS VI do not produce the enzyme that carries all the impurities out of their body. This causes thickening of the bones, breathing difficulties, and ceases normal human growth and development. Symptoms gradually worsen over time, and individuals with MPS VI usually do not survive past 25-years old.
The news devastated Marcia Galan, who adopted three-year old Alena from a Russian orphanage just seven weeks earlier. At the time, Alena – who remarkably resembled Marcia – seemed to be healthy and happy. They immediately bonded as mother and daughter. Shortly after bringing Alena home to the U.S., a pediatrician who specializes in Russian adoptees observed several abnormalities, including a heart murmur, which led to further evaluations and the MPS VI diagnosis. read more >
