For the past year, shares of Wal-Mart Stores have been stuck in the mud. But that doesn't mean that the world's largest retailer isn't on the move.
A piece by the Economist brings reader up-to-date on initiatives that Wal-Mart Stores WMT -0.14114326040931546% Wal-Mart Stores Inc.

Wal-Mart is "at an inflection point," writes the Economist, using words attributed to Bill Simon, the company's chief executive officer of its U.S. division.
What's not clear is whether the company can overcome problems that have stalled its share price in the past year, including weak U.S. same-store sales at its bricks-and-mortar outlets and a Website that doesn't come close to Amazon's.
"Walmart is some way from fusing a new, Amazonian brain onto a bricks-and-mortar body,'' the Economist adds. "Its e-commerce operation still runs separately from the main American business: it holds its own stock and has its own buying team. Shipping is thought to cost Walmart nearly twice as much per package as it does Amazon. Walmart's e-commerce sales are growing fast and reached $10 billion in 2013. But that is still puny compared with Amazon's $75 billion or so."
Like many Economist profiles on companies, the story fails to value the stock given the company's prospects going forward. Still, anyone who wants an update on the steps Wal-Mart is taking to transform itself should read this article. One thing is for sure: Wal-Mart has miles to go to compete head-to-head with Amazon in cyberspace.

Today, the global energy producer and marketer is a major oil and gas player in North Dakota and Montana's Bakken formation, a center of U.S. shale drilling.
"The company's valuation is also very compelling," writes the StreetAuthority's Marshall Hargrave. "Hess is trading at 7 times earnings, well below its five-year average of 13 times. Shares also trade near its book value per share of $74. Its enterprise value-to-Ebitda (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) ratio is only 5. Compare that with Exxon Mobil XOM 0.23385300668151449% Exxon Mobil Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD90.01 0.21 0.23385300668151449% /Date(1464382809087-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 7387701 AFTER HOURS USD89.99 -0.0200000000000102 -0.022219753360737695% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 118240 P/E Ratio 28.942122186495176 Market Cap 373236450552.452 Dividend Yield 3.3329630041106544% Rev. per Employee 2908360 More quote details and news » (XOM) with an EV-to-Ebitda multiple of 5.4, or BP (BP) at 5.6."
Hargrave does point out that as the U.S. becomes more energy independent and relies less on foreign oil, the price of crude oil is likely to fall – a clear risk to owning Hess or any energy stock. But with a price target of $105, based on the stock trading at a reasonable enterprise value/Ebitda of six times, the stock has huge potential upside.
In recent days, plenty of ink and bytes have been devoted to determining when and where to invest in emerging-markets stocks, a sector that has sharply underperformed U.S. stocks. A story in the Financial Times contends that, "In the view of many fund managers, better bargains are to be had in sovereign bonds than in equities, partly because debt markets tend to be dominated by institutions, which so far are displaying a more enduring faith than retail investors in the emerging markets theme.
"Emerging market [sovereign debt] really does stand out as best value for pension funds," Jim Craige, fund manager at Stone Harbor, reportedly told the FT. (A subscription is required to read the article.)
Overselling of emerging-market hard currency sovereign bonds in recent weeks has led to spreads widening to about 50 basis points over U.S. Treasuries, making them a bargain for investors with experience of emerging-market crises, the FT writes. The piece gives examples of countries and industries worth considering, including Taiwanese electronics firms and even Turkish banks, whose bonds have taken a hit because of a selloff in that country.

Ramón García, 51, lives in the "Ciudadela 20 de Julio" neighborhood. He produces hand-made shoes and handbags. He has 3 children and 35 years of experience in this occupation, with which he has managed to generate income for himself and his children. He currently works with 2 of his children.
His sales are highest in the months between March and September, although in the other months sales are not bad, because he has many customers who prefer his products. In this line of work there is a lot of competition, but he is able to maintain the business because his prices are good and he is very responsible with delivering his orders. He works from 8am until 8pm Mondays through Saturdays, and this persistence gets results, as he is able to recoup his investment with a profit. However, he cannot respond quickly to his customers because he lacks sufficient capital to keep up with the pace at which his customers are demanding his products. For this reason he is requesting a Kiva loan, with which he will buy a greater quantity of raw materials and supplies to make purses and shoes that he already has orders for from stores in downtown Barranquilla for the upcoming season. His dream is to convert his small workshop into a large business, with a place where he can exhibit and sell his products and where he can produce custom-made items for the public.

Edmond police raid another apartment complex looking for drugs
EDMOND — The second sunrise drug bust in two days netted a number of arrests Thursday at an Edmond apartment complex.
A day after a roundup at a north Edmond complex, law officers hit Chapel Ridge Apartments in the 500 block of W 15th Street, police spokeswoman Glynda Chu said.
Thirteen people were taken into custody and 12 were booked Thursday at Edmond city jail, Chu said.
Bobby Barnes, 28, Bruce Carter, 20, Antryon Clark, 21, Celeste Fenton, 24, Robert Watkins, 19, Raven Summers, 18, and Drew Summers, 22, were all booked on complaints of possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
Patrick Limon, 24, Laya Muhammad, 35, and Andrew Roberts, 22, were arrested on warrants. Alfred Robinson, 33, and Robert Watkins, 19, were booked on complaints of possession of drug paraphernalia. Echele Thomas, 19, was arrested on a warrant and a complaint of possession of marijuana.
Apartments targeted
The arrests are part of an ongoing investigation into illegal drug activity at Edmond apartment complexes, Chu said
Wednesday, six people were arrested at Rolling Green Apartments, 400 E Danforth Road, where marijuana, steroids and guns were found.
"This morning was the same type of raid as the sweep we did yesterday," Chu said.
"It was basically due to the same complaints we'd had at both apartments about increased gang activity. We felt like action was needed."
Chu said a helicopter from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was used to assist law officers on the ground.
She would not comment on the possibility of future raids.
"We have to keep these things quiet or they're not effective," she said.

Alfa Romeo Giulietta review
Attractive Italian design and punchy, turbocharged petrol engines are the highlights of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta range
On its looks alone the Alfa Romeo Giulietta appears unbeatable, but sadly you don't need to scratch far beneath the surface to uncover some serious compromises.
The car looks great and has strong performance, but is hindered by occasionally average ride quality and – more crucially for a car with such obvious sporting intentions - poorly judged drive mode settings that fail to satisfy the enthusiastic driver.
The overall picture isn't helped by a cramped interior and an awkward driving position, nor do the reflections of owners we've surveyed over reliability and build quality inspire much confidence – although residual values are holding up well.
The Alfa Romeo Giulietta is the Italian firm's best-ever family hatchback and offers an injection of style compared to more run-of-the-mill models like the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra.
Only available as a five-door, the Giulietta is as striking as you'd expect an Alfa Romeo to be, featuring neat design touches such as the firm's famous triangular grille, hidden rear door handles and LED taillights. It was updated in 2016 with a new look, too.
However, as with many Alfa Romeo models, build quality is lacking and doesn't match up to the standards set by the current Volkswagen Golf. It's also not as well laid out as some of its more modern rivals, with limited space in the rear making the Giulietta feel cramped. Having first gone on sale back in 2010, the cabin is now starting to show its age, too.
Image 2 of 11
Trim levels include the entry-level Giulietta, then Super, Tecnica, Speciale and Veloce, which replaced the old Quadrifoglio Verde (QV) model. There are seven power units on offer in the mainstream Giulietta range: three petrol and three diesel. The petrols are all 1.4 MultiAir turbos, offering 119bhp, 148bhp and 168bhp – and the higher-powered version is also available with Alfa's TCT twin-clutch automatic transmission. (If you really want to push the boat out the Veloce model comes with a 238bhp 1.7-litre petrol.)
Depending on trim level, Alfa offers a 119bhp 1.6 JTDm-2 MultiJet turbodiesel in manual or automatic, or a choice of 2.0-litre units, including a 148bhp engine and a more powerful 173bhp unit that comes with a six-speed TCT gearbox.
You'll have to pay more for a Giulietta than many of its rivals, but all models do get air conditioning, all-round electric windows, DAB radio and Bluetooth as standard.
Engines, performance and drive
The Giulietta's blend of comfort and performance is genuinely effective, with the Alfa proving to be at home on the motorway, uneven city streets and winding country roads.
The Giulietta gets what Alfa calls its D.N.A switch. This alters the throttle response and steering weight between three driving modes: Dynamic, Natural and All-weather. Unfortunately, it feels like a gimmick and fails to provide a satisfying compromise between aggression and comfort, with too much weight in Dynamic mode and slack throttle response in the Natural and All-weather settings.
The suspension on the Alfa Romeo Giulietta isn't supple enough to soak up many of the worse bumps on UK roads, and together with questionable cabin ergonomics it means the Giulietta isn't the most comfortable car to live with.
Twin-clutch (TCT) models also get the option of paddle shifters mounted behind the steering wheel for manual gear changes if you want a sportier drive. This is only available on the most powerful 168bhp petrol and 173bhp diesel engines – the latter does get a bit loud at times but is relatively efficient. It's also relatively quick, with lots of low-down torque on offer and manages 0-62mph in 7.8 seconds. The twin-clutch petrol car does it in 7.6 seconds, and both are flat out at around 135mph.
Image 5 of 11
The 149bhp diesel with manual gears accelerates from 0-62mph in 8.8 seconds and is our pick of the range.
As for the petrol line-up, the 1.4 litre turbocharged petrol works better in Alfa's smaller Mito as it can struggle with the comparative bulk of the Giulietta. It remains a charismatic unit though, and the most powerful 168bhp 1.4 version feels punchy and keen to rev.
For fans of the hot hatch there is the Veloce, with the same engine found in the 4C sports car. Producing 237bhp, it has a Golf GTI-bothering top speed of 149mph.
This makes it one of the fruitiest-sounding hot hatchbacks around, but it's far from the most entertaining to drive. The dual-clutch gearbox isn't as snappy when driving quickly as the Veloce's main rival, nor is it as smooth to shift when pootling through town.
MPG, CO2 and running costs
The Giulietta's engine range is reasonably economical but also offers decent performance. The 1.6-litre diesel is the cheapest option for day-to-day running costs, returning a healthy 74.3mpg on the combined test cycle and emitting 99g/km of CO2, meaning your road tax will be free.
Our pick of the range is the larger 2.0-litre turbodiesel though, which in 148bhp guise delivers a class-leading amount of torque from as low as 1,750rpm. But the same 2.0-litre also emits 110g/km of CO2, exceeding the 1.6 litre diesel unit, and offers a slightly worse 67.3mpg on the official test cycle. Both turbocharged diesels are fitted with fuel-saving stop-start technology as standard.
The 1.4-litre petrol engine in its lowest powered 119bhp form returns 45.6mpg on the combined economy test cycle and emits 144g/km of CO2. Move up to the 148bhp variant and the figures are 51.4mpg and 127g/km, while the peculiarities of the test regime means the 168bhp model with manual gears is able to return the same claimed figures. Pick the 168bhp engine with TCT and you could see as much as 57.7mpg and 114g/km if the test figures are to be believed.
Image 6 of 11
The top-of-the-range Veloce with its 237bhp 1.7-litre petrol engine returns 41.5mpg and 157g/km.
Insurance groups
Most of the Giulietta range falls into insurance groups 23-25, although the lower-powered entry-level cars start at group 16 and the hot Veloce is group 31.
Decent demand for the Giulietta on the used market means it's not the depreciation liability of old-school Alfa Romeos. In fact our experts reckon you'll see up between 42-45 per cent of your investment returned after three years/36,000 miles – unless you go for the relatively pricey Veloce when the percentage could fall into the high 30s. You'll get more money back on a Volkswagen Golf GTi.
Interior, design and technology
The Alfa Romeo Giulietta was facelifted in 2016, refreshed with a tweaked front bumper and a new grille. Different alloy wheels, extra colour choices and a slightly tweaked interior also helped improve the car's appeal, and there's no doubt it's one of the most stylish hatchbacks on the market.
In fact the Giulietta has very few competitors in the style stakes. Rivals like the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf are far more conservative, and well-finished details like the eye-catching front and rear LED lights, and hidden rear door handles really help the Alfa to stand out.
The interior mirrors the Giulietta's exterior, with a heavy focus placed on style. There's a good balance between simplicity and head-turning design elements that add extra appeal, meaning the cabin is easy to use day-to-day, but still feels special.
Image 11 of 11
However, the interior isn't ultimately as pleasing as the exterior. Alfa has addressed some of the old car's flaws, with sturdier seat bolsters, better quality leather on the steering wheel and anti-scratch paint finishes added, but the Giulietta just isn't up to VW group levels of quality.
Image 8 of 11
The range-topping Veloce line stands out with its large alloy wheels, leather and alcantara interior and red brake calipers, plus lowered suspension, larger exhaust outlets, sports seats and Veloce badges.
Sat-nav, stereo and infotainment
The entry-level car comes with a six-speaker audio set-up with DAB radio, Bluetooth, CD player, voice recognition and smartphone connectivity – all accessed via Alfa's Uconnect 5 inch colour touchscreen system.
Practicality, comfort and boot space
Interior space wasn't Alfa's highest priority when it was designing the Giulietta, and it shows. Alfa Romeos are built for style, not practicality.
Visibility out of the back is poor because of the tiny rear window and thick Golf-like C pillars and the limited rear view makes parking problematic, though this can be helped on higher spec models, which feature parking sensors. The stylised writing on the sporting dials can also be hard to read at a glance.
The pedals are positioned a little too close together and there's no space to rest your left foot, while the steering wheel is also too far away, resulting in a less than perfect driving position.
Image 3 of 11
Also, the dashboard layout is muddled and can be difficult to use while on the move – plus the optional sat-nav unit is small and some times hard to read. Oddment space is at a premium too, as there's a tiny storage compartment in the central armrest and only an average-size glove compartment.
The Giulietta is a little longer than many of its classmates at 4,351mm which – coupled with the poor visibility – will add to the challenge of parking for less confident drivers.
Leg room, head room & passenger space
Despite the Giulietta's five-door layout there's a surprising lack of passenger space and legroom is tight. Rear passengers may also have an uncomfortable time thanks to the reduced headroom that's a result of the coupe-like styling and swooping roofline. Kids will be OK, as there are Isofix mounting points to accommodate their chairs and access to the rear bench via the rear doors is good.
Matters don't improve in the front for adults, unfortunately, because as well as the awkward driving position there's a cramped feeling cabin.
You get 350 litres of boot space in the Giulietta which is not great – it's more than the Ford Focus offers but smaller than the VW Golf's load bay. There's also a high load lip that makes putting heavy or bulky items in the luggage bay pretty difficult. Even if you fold down the standard-fit 60:40 split-folding back seats, the boot doesn't expand that much and the space isn't that practical. You do get a space-saver spare wheel on all trim levels though, which is better than a can of gunk.
Reliability and Safety
Alfa Romeo recorded a below average performance in our Driver Power survey in 2015, ranking in 23rd position out of 32 manufacturers although that's only one place behind VW. It seems as though the Italian brand's reputation for questionable reliability is still alive and well, however, as Alfa finished fourth from bottom when readers were polled on reliability alone.
The Giulietta model itself was included in the 200 cars we surveyed in 2015, ranking a disappointing 138th for Reliability and 176th for Build Quality. While there are some high-quality materials used in the cabin, some of the fit and finish is a bit shoddy, with the odd rough and cheap panel. Still, there have been no major recalls or significant problems reported for the Giulietta as yet.
If there are question marks over reliability, there are none when it comes to safety, as the Giulietta's credentials are top notch. The car secured the maximum five-star rating and an impressive 97 per cent for adult occupants in the Euro NCAP crash safety tests, so it's as safe as the best cars in the sector. Child occupant safety was rated at 85 per cent, although pedestrian safety was down on the class best at 63 per cent. By way of comparison, the VW Golf scored 94 per cent, 89 per cent and 65 per cent, while the Mercedes A-Class scored 93 per cent, 81 per cent and 67 per cent in the respective categories.
The Giulietta comes with Alfa Romeo's standard three-year, unlimited mileage warranty. That's similar to the Mercedes A Class and BMW 1 Series, but better than the cover offered with cars like the VW Golf and SEAT Leon, which have a 60,000-mile warranty cap.
Major services are required at 36,000 miles or every two years, but the Alfa also needs interim inspections annually or at 18,000 miles.

you're wondering why i gave a four star rating for value. i think it should be $10.00 less for a 5 star. but i understand we all have to make a buck. with that said, i would strongly recommend purchasing this cover for your bike.

I like the way it looks.
Nice fit, follows the contours of the tank and protects paint or hides small dents or scratches and gives your bike nice change.

having just a metal tank there was painful, this cover was just enough to make it comfortable. plus it prevents scratches and doesnt look bad either.

Review By: ThePaintedCow
from salt lake city, utah
Decent tank bra
A well-made product. Fit is VERY snug - hopefully, it will loosen a little after it has been installed for a while. A bit "wrinkly" around the indent where the seat meets the tank, but that is probably due to the overall tightness. Coverage is good and it should serve to proect the tank from zippers, etc.

DALLAS - Like a lot of people, former flight attendant Mary Nicholson wasn't an exerciser. But two years ago she changed all that - at age 71.
For Nicholson, part of the motivation to exercise was to be strong and agile enough to avoid a fall.
"I'm bound and determined I'm not going to fall and break a bone," she said during a workout that included balancing on one leg and working with weights.
Nicholson said she feels better, is stronger, and her balance is much improved.
With one in three adults over the age of 65 falling each year, experts say people should follow Nicholson's lead as they get older.
In 2004, the most recent year statistics are available, almost 15,000 people 65 and older died from falls and about 1.9 million were treated for injuries in emergency rooms, said Judy Stevens, an epidemiologist with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"I think the magnitude of the problem is something that people don't recognize," Stevens said. "It really is a serious issue for older adults."
Making sure that people over the age of 65 know how to avoid falling or being injured by a fall is the goal of a campaign launched this month by the National Athletic Trainers' Association and American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.
The organizations say in addition to exercise, older people can make their homes safer by installing night lights, bathroom grab bars and slip-resistant floors.
"If we continue to exercise, especially strength training, we decrease the loss of bone density," said Joe Scott, a NATA member who is outpatient orthopedic team leader for Southcoast Hospitals Group in New Bedford, Mass.

ASBO goes to prolific beggar (From This Is Wiltshire)
ASBO goes to prolific beggar
5:30am Saturday 22nd March 2014 in By Dominic Gilbert
PROLIFIC offender Ian Pounds has had an anti-social behaviour order extended for two years to ban him from entering the town centre.
Pounds, 43, of Sheppard Street, has been known to police for some time after causing a nuisance in the town by begging aggressively and selling items he takes from nearby bins, and had anti-social behaviour orders imposed in 2009 and 2012.
After a spate of incidents in February, he has been banned from entering the town centre for two years and may not enter any gambling premises in the town for a period of three months, to be reviewed in June.
Tony Nowogrodski, defending, said Pounds had always struggled with gambling, and would inevitably break the order.
He said: "At age 16 Pounds began to suffer from schizophrenia. That is now being managed. About that time he developed a gambling addiction, and that is something that has been ongoing for a long period of time.
"He was shoplifting small things from shops at the time to fund his addiction on fruit machines. Matters became worse when he went into custody on a number of occasions.
"Over the last few years the ASBO was made against the background where he discovered there were skips round the back of Havelock Street. Pounds would fish the items out of the skips and hawk them around town.
"In the past a town centre ban was made against Pounds as part of an ASBO. Every time he gets tired and walks through the town centre, that is a breach and a serious matter. He lives just on the cusp of the town centre and has no means of transport. Every time he leaves the front door he is tempted."
District Judge Simon Cooper, sentencing, said: "There is evidence here of an obsession with obtaining money in the town centre in Swindon by anti-social means, including aggressive begging and targeting lone women at cash points.
"Pounds has admitted that he steals to obtain money so that he can gamble. The behaviour he has exhibited to individuals in the town centre amounts to clear incidents of anti-social behaviour.
"Pounds has not sought to slow down the many incidents he commits. He is capable of understanding what is happening to him, and his behaviour is unacceptable."
Addressing Pounds personally, he said: "You have to understand that what you do is unacceptable to the community, and they object to your behaviour in the town. There are only certain ways the court can prevent you from doing this.
"I have done this to protect the people of Swindon from you. Some of them are frightened by your behaviour.
"I have made it harder for you to gamble in Swindon so you may be able to see some sense. There are other ways to enjoy life in this otherwise splendid town. You should find more constructive ways to spend your time."
PC Paul Bezzant, of the town centre neighbourhood policing team, said he hoped the order would help tackle the issue.
"In all these things we fear there may be elements of displacement, but this will hopefully tackle the problems we are finding in the town centre," he said.
"The opportunity for Ian to offend in the town centre is all there for him. We hope that while this may not solve his problems, it will reduce anti-social behaviour in the town centre.
"This is his third order, and is probably the most all-encompassing we have had, so I am hoping it will be the most effective."

If the police really wanted him out of town they could do him for obtaining money by deception (he lies to get money, tells you he's homeless, thirsty etc) but they just go after the easy result

Thanks for the links to previous offences. What an utter scumbag. I'm surprised, given that he seems to be usually at large in the town centre that someone hasn't seen fit to take him aside for a "talking to".
They clearly have no desire to stop him reoffending and would most certainly deal very harshly with anyone who did prevent him going about his routine offending.

NETWORK your way through holidays
The holiday season often brings the gift of conflicted feelings as we acknowledge family traditions, the excitement of children, the loss of dear ones, hectic schedules and lots of social gatherings.
Have you ever stood on the sidelines at a holiday party wishing you were anywhere but there? Have you wondered what to say because you're uncomfortable with small talk? Meeting new people is such an effort. It can leave you feeling anxious, insecure and, yes, bored.
Well, you are not alone.
"You are invited" can trigger a stressful response, even for the most experienced of us. Our responses feel like feathers wafting on air, as we grasp to answer:
Do I really have to go?
What am I going to wear?
Who's going to be there?
To address these questions, first ...
Yes, you need to go, even if it's just to make an appearance. Not attending events that you're invited to is just bad form. (And it will be noticed.)
Dress to impress (but don't overdress -- be appropriate for the time, place and event).
You won't know who is going to be there until you get there. (That's part of the fun, right?)
Keys to sparkling conversation
The good news: 90 percent of your success is just about showing up. The other 10 percent can make you a holiday networking success.
As a recovering introvert who shares networking skills with others, I will now reveal eight of my "mix and mingle" royal jewels to enable you to feel more comfortable and confident at any social event -- anywhere and anytime.
1 Smile before you arrive at the event. Walk in ... pause ... and "own" the room. Exude quiet confidence.
2 Find the hostess or event coordinator. Thank him or her for the invitation. Ask how you can help (be a greeter, sit at the registration table, direct guests to refreshments). It gives you something to do.
3 Approach the loners. They're the ones by themselves who are trying to look busy by texting, watching TV, or hovering over the buffet table. They look busy but alone. They are usually nervous, not knowing what to do. Most of them will be relieved if someone just says that magic word: "Hello!"
4 Nod your way into groups. What if everyone is already in groups (i.e. three to four people already in conversation)? Try on my secret weapon: the nod. Just quietly approach a group and begin nodding your head up and down and watch everyone nod back. It's fun, and it works. (Don't nod sideways because it looks like you're scolding them.)
5 Say "Hello. My name is ..." Ask how the person is connected to the event or to the host. Or, My name is ... (the hostess) and I work together." At the same time, shake his or her hand, smile and give eye contact.
6 Compliment immediately. Make a personal connection. "What a beautiful scarf you're wearing. It's perfect for the holidays. May I ask where you purchased it?" Or, "Your home is lovely. It's so tastefully decorated." People love to talk about themselves once you get them started.
7 Ask questions. Be prepared with a series of open-ended questions to keep the conversation going. "How do you know Sally?" or "How long have you worked for Mr. Jones?" or "Any special plans this holiday season?" The biggest secret to being a sparkling conversationalist is to just keep your mouth shut and let other people talk about themselves (rule 6).
8 Move on. It's OK to let go and to mix and mingle with other guests. You won't hurt their feelings. An example: "It was nice chatting with you. I'm going to say hello to a few other people I know. I look forward to seeing you again."
Remember that first impressions can make lifelong connections.
So, as the holiday invitations start to come in for business or social events, respond promptly -- with confidence and anticipation. Use my "mix and mingle" networking jewels to accept with pleasure the kind invitations. If you do, I guarantee you a pleasurable holiday season.

Simmering the vegetables in the dressing and beef broth allows the flavors to mellow, resulting in a richer flavor.
For crisper vegetables and a shortened cook time, omit the 10-min. simmer time after the cooked vegetables are tossed with the 1 Tbsp. beef broth.
Prepare and cook vegetable mixture as directed; divide between 2 resealable microwaveable containers. Add 1/2 the meat to each container; mix lightly. Seal containers; set aside. Divide broth between 2 small resealable microwaveable containers; seal containers. Place all containers in refrigerator. For an easy portable hot lunch, pack 1 each of the meat and broth containers, and 1 of the rolls, wrapped in plastic wrap, in insulated lunch bag. Keep cold until ready to serve. Remove lid from each container, then microwave until meat mixture is heated through and broth is hot. Spoon meat mixture into roll. Serve with the hot broth as a dipping sauce. Store remaining containers in refrigerator up to 3 days.
The red peppers in this flavorful sandwich are a good source of vitamin C.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — An investigation ordered by Syracuse University in 2005 into sex-abuse allegations against a former assistant basketball coach found no witnesses who believed the accuser's story.
The report obtained by the Post-Standard of Syracuse shows in detail how the school reacted to accusations against then-assistant coach Bernie Fine by former ball boy Bobby Davis.
Fine has denied the accusations.
ESPN first aired Davis's accusations in the fall. But Davis had approached police and the media years earlier. Syracuse University had a law firm look into the clams after Davis contacted them in 2005.
The university took statements from seven people. Most people interviewed said they believed Davis was a liar and that he likely made up the allegations because he was angry at Fine. Head coach Jim Boeheim was not formally interviewed.

Lol, I almost wish you had made the solo challenge end with the Elite 4 in Gen 2 so I wouldn't have to be stuck on Red with my Weedle Solo. What confuses me more about having to fight Red is not the fact that you have to fight him, but why do we have to fight Red in Gen 2 and beat Alder twice in Gen 5, but we don't have to fight Steven in Emerald.

While the next few weeks will determine if "Oz the Great and Powerful" meets or succeeds expectations, it's off to a good start.

This weekend marks the watershed moment in 2013 when the box office will finally lift some boats around the nation's multiplexes.

(LOS ANGELES, CA) -- Finland fans of Joanna Angel will be treated to a special appearance by the BurningAngel megastar at the 2013 Sexhibition. This will be the pornstars first visit to Finland and Joanna Angel plans to make her live performance an unforgettable event. After the live stage show, Angel will be signing autographs and taking photos with fans at Finlands largest premiere adult expo. Sexhibition will be held at the Cable Factory in Helsinki, Finland from November 1-2, 2013.
"This is an amazing opportunity!" exclaimed Joanna Angel, spokesperson and owner of BurningAngel. "I can't wait to meet my Finnish fans. This will be my first time in that part of the world and I will make it count!"
Joanna Angel show times are:
Friday, Nov 1
Saturday, Nov 2
Sexhibition will be held at the Cable Factory in Helsinki, Finland from November 1-2, 2013. For more information, please visit http://www.sexhibition.fi/sex_eng.html.
Fans of the alt rock pornstar Joanna Angel can now enjoy Joanna in a whole new way. Fleshlight, the worlds number one selling male sex toy company, has created the Joanna Angel Fleshlight, which is now available for purchase online, exclusively at www.fleshlight.com. Check out Joannas Fleshlight at http://www.fleshlight.com/fleshlight-girls/fleshlight-toys/joanna-angel/.
Pushing the envelope, the BurningAngel Empire is a refreshingly unique web cocktail of sex, rock n' roll and pop culture. BurningAngel.com launched in 2002 with a few sets of photos and a band interview, conceived by two amateur college kids from Rutgers, Joanna Angel and Mitch Fontaine. Since its launch, it has exploded into a fierce indie company that has pioneered a new species of erotica known as "alt porn," with eight separate websites and hundreds of DVDs to its credit. The company is revered for popularizing alternative style girls, and prides itself on delivering hardcore adult content alongside band interviews, record reviews, and a community with its own social networking.
As both the star of many of BurningAngel's movies and the company's spokesperson and owner, Joanna Angel has stormed both mainstream and adult media. She's appeared in every major adult magazine (Club, Hustler, Picture Magazine, Adam Film World and Xtreme, to name a few) and has been featured in many tattoo magazines as well (some include Prick, Taboo, Inked and Savage). She has been featured on Fox News, Playboy TV, Fuse TV, G4 TV, KROQ Radio, as a regular on the Jason Ellis show on Sirius Radio, as a guest on the 2008 series premiere of TLCs LA Ink, and in a speaking role on Adult Swim's "Children's Hospital." Angel was recently showcased in an article on Refinery29 that featured the 8 most influential women in the adult industry.
Angel has also appeared in the New York Times, Newsweek, the Village Voice, the New York press, Esquire UK, Details and Penthouse, among others. Heeb Magazine featured Joanna as its cover girl, naming her one of the Top 100 Up-and-Coming Jews in 2005, and the New York Post featured her as one of the Top 25 Sexiest New Yorkers in 2006.
BurningAngel has brought home several awards from all the major adult shows, from AVN to XBIZ; from XRCO to YNOT. Some of its accolades include Best Porn Star Website, Best Web Premiere and Best Sex Comedy. From a college dorm room to national television, BurningAngel has made a mark in entertainment, and it's only just beginning.

Student Vocational Discernment Grants
Sponsored by Willamette University's Career Center, funded by the Lilly Project.
Students are eligible for one Lilly-funded Vocational Discernment Grant of up to $200 during their four years at Willamette.
A Vocational Discernment Grant funds educational opportunity for vocational exploration that allows you to explore vocational questions you might have about that subject. Examples may include attending a conference, workshop, meeting, or training session. The experience should contribute to your personal development and relate to service (how can you bring back and use what you are gaining/learning for the betterment of our campus/local/larger community).
2015 Project Profiles:
Thalia Vargas, Class of 2016
Sociology Major, Mathematics Minor
"I was able to attend the Pacific Sociological Association (PSA) conference recently to present the research my partner Grecia Garcia and I did during the summer of 2014. I went to the conference in hopes of determining what career within education I wanted to pursue. By attending sessions I learned about how it is like to conduct research within the sociology field, learned about the experiences of Latinos/as in masters programs, as well the problems that higher education institutions face. I also had an opportunity to talk to graduate students who are pursuing their masters in Sociology who were presenting their research.
After attending the PSA conference, I feel like although research is rewarding and it benefits many communities, I feel like research would not be a good fit for me. I feel like at PSA I was able to finalize my decision between pursing a master's degree in teaching or a master's degree in education. Overall, attending the PSA conference informed me of what the different aspects of a career in education entails and helped me decide in which aspect of education I would best fit in."
Anna Walling (right), Class of 2015 with Miles Sari (left)
Rhetoric and Media Studies Major
"My thesis was competitively selected for presentation at the Western States Communication Association research conference in February of 2015. I gained a lot of confidence in my ability to create and share meaningful scholarship on an individual level. I learned how to prepare for a professional presentation and how to receive formal feedback on a research project.
This experience really inspired me to continue on my path towards pursuing higher education in this field. With some recent experiences, I had doubts on my ability to succeed, but attending this conference has motivated me to continue to work towards more opportunities in the communication discipline. Thank you so much for the funding that allowed me to not only learn about formal academic presentations – but to participate in an experience that has inspired me to continue to research communication ethics, that can be positive and influential to scholars and more importantly, members of our community."
Manny Rodriguez, Class of 2015
Exercise Science and Sociology Major
"On the weekend of Sept. 19-21st I attended the Women & Power: Men and Women The Next Conversation Conference held in Rhinebeck, NY at the Omega Institute. I attended with the hope that I would learn more about allyship for women, tools for how to engage in the discourse around ending gender based violence and to sharpen my analysis of healthy masculinity.
As I begin to think of my vocation and where I feel called to serve in life both professionally and personally, I think of my experience at this conference. I want both men and women to feel liberated from bondage. As a future public health professional, it is not enough to enforce quotas because there is actually no correlation between numbers and advancement. This made me think of the different institutions in which women and people of color, especially, have been tokenized.
Thank you SO MUCH for funding this opportunity, it has been and will continue to be instrumental in my growth as a social justice person."

Working with kids, networking at top of new Miss Tempe's wish list
Feb 09, 2013 (East Valley Tribune (Mesa - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- Andrea Malinski was crowned Miss Tempe recently, a position that she hopes to use to expand her community service and networking opportunities.
"The community service and networking opportunities are so valuable," said the 23-year-old Arizona State University graduate student, who is working toward her masters in non-profit studies. "I'm really looking forward to working with the Children's Miracle Network." Malinski completed her undergraduate degree in Azusa Pacific University, where she studied elementary education.
"I love kids, but I realized that I don't necessarily want to work in the school environment," Malinski said.
Instead, she hopes to work with kids through her involvement with non-profits, she said. Currently, she volunteers at notMYkid, a Scottsdale-based non-profit that helps at-risk youth and families.
Malinski will compete against about 20 other local title winners in the Miss Arizona competition at the end of June.
Malinski has competed in pageants since she was 12-years-old.
"It was at the recommendation of a friend," she said. "My friend had done one before, but wanted a friend to compete with. I had such a great time." The competition and training required for pageants taught Malinski how to break out of her shell, better public speaking skills and poise, she said.
"I knew my ultimate goal was to compete in the Miss America organization," she said.
The Miss America Scholarship Fund is the largest scholarship provider for women, according to the group's website. They awarded more than $45 million in cash and scholarship assistance through state and local competitions.
The title of Miss Tempe accompanies a $250 scholarship, Malinski said.

Grocers are streamlining ranges and abandoning price promotion strategies in favour of everyday low prices to fight the emergence of Aldi and Lidl, and Australia now risks being overwhelmed by countries that have a better "clarity of offer" and can trade shoppers up to premium tiers, according to Accolade.
The French wine industry has experienced a steady decline in both wine acreage and overall production in the past 40 years, resulting in a persistent wine glut. These declines and the growth of New World wine production means that French wine must increasingly rely on exports to foreign markets. Quality classifications are essential for foreign markets to be attracted to the French wine sector as they give the consumer certainty and the trust needed to purchase French wine.

Bologna striker Rolando Bianchi rates AS Roma as a superior squad to Juventus'.
Bianchi says the difference has been Juve coach Antonio Conte.
"I think it's going to be a real fight for the title," he told Sky Sport Italia.
"For me, Roma have the better individuals - they're better than Juventus in that regard.
"But the difference, as far as I'm concerned, is what Conte is doing. He knows what he's doing, knows his players and puts out the best possible team.
"The Juve Coach gets results thanks to his organisation and a winning mentality."
