Therm-a-Rest® Antares™ 20F | -7C Sleeping BagŁ250.00 - Ł300.00, added Apr/2013, see all Therm-a-Rest news & reviews
announcement by Therm-a-Rest
New for 2013, this three-season 750+ fill-power goose down sleeping bag features a cutting-edge combination of technology, design and materials, making it the lightest three-season solution in Therm-a-Rest's sleeping bag collection—and one of the lightest on the market.
- Patent-pending SynergyLink™ Mattress Connectors—compatible with up to 63-centimeter-wide sleeping pads—create the most secure mattress connection in the industry. Two flexible fabric bands create a snug fit around almost any mattress, keeping your bag centered and eliminating problems with sliding, twisting and cold spots.
- Thermal-mapped zonal insulation puts loft where it's needed most. Insulation is concentrated in the top of the sleeping bag, where it traps rising warm air. There is a carefully measured amount of loft at the sides, where less fill is required to hold warmth. Loft is eliminated in the back of the bag, where a mattress provides full insulation from the ground. Construction is based on thermal mapping and supported by over forty years of sleep research.
- Efficient Comfort design features extra room in the torso to allow shoulders, elbows and hips to move freely. At the head and foot the fit is closer, increasing warmth and decreasing overall weight. The design is ideal for side sleepers or anyone who wants more freedom of movement without adding extra weight to their pack.
- A draft tube and collar are added for maximum heat retention. The sculpted hood and a trapezodial foot box are shaped to fit the body's natural resting position. The bag comes also comes with snag-free zippers as well as a compartmental storage sack, lightweight stuff sack, and stash pocket.
Available in size regular and long.

Beautiful riad and very friendly staff. Adil was incredibly attentive, genuine and caring. We arrived early in the am before check-in but this was no problem and we were welcomed with mint tea and a selection of tasty things to eat. Our room although small (selected personally) was immaculate and extremely clean. Superb deco and so much care goes into everything. The cleaner polished and cleaned everything, even the wooden shutters, and she laid rose petals for our arrival. We have just eaten a delicious beef, apricot and prune tagine and ate it on the roof top enjoying the quiet night (despite call to prayer from mosque next door which we love). Despite Ramadan, we were discreetly offered alcohol and we shared a lovely bottle of red called ksar. The resident cat feels at home here just like all the guests too. We spent our last evening here instead of going out and we have lived it. The hot tub is definitely a bonus and the cold shower. We used this both days in privacy.

All Things New Again
New heaven over a brand new sky
New breed of wonder on the vine
Among the living
There is new promise in this night
New arms to hold back the revolution
New eyes to recognize what you've become
New blood to recover
A new will to honor all God's creations
All things are new again
Within and without
All things are new again
New shepherd roaming through the tall grass
A new temple rising through the falling ash
That buries the tracks
Of millions of boots marching in packs
Clearwater rolling thought the dam's collapse
Out to the harbor where they're sailing back
New flag on the mast
Without any secrets, without any past
All things are new again
Within and without
Sooner or later the ending begins
Just then it can be said that all things are new again
New ghost returning to the earth beneath the haze
New poets burning through the lines of every page
I'm am unpainted portrait
I am staring at a new sunset
Without any memories yet
All things are new again
Within and without
Sooner or later the ending begins
Just then it can be said that all things are new again
Within and without
Sooner or later every season ends
Then forever it can be said that all things are new again

The agency's sign was put up in 1982, and needs to be replaced badly! It is worn, and on the verge of falling down. It is difficult to see, making it a challenge to find the driveway. The new sign will have changeable track lettering for the announcement of upcoming events and services for the community. It will also prominently display the street address, making it much easier to find Stanford Settlement. Funds raised will pay for the permit, sign, and installation, along with the addition of lighting so that the sign can be viewed at night.Please consider a donation to this project by visiting https://www.gofundme.com/newstanfordsign

"Battery problem"
A friend of mine is in the Seychelles on vacation. His battery charger will not respond (light stays off). I suspect it is the charger. There is not a Nikon shop on the island. Can anybody offer help? I will not be surprised if this is a useless case.I think he has a Nikon 5000

We stayed here for two nights on a shakedown cruise on our "new" 2004 motorhome. We had one of two pull through sites. It was easy to get in and out of and the electrical was easy to reach.
Most of the sites are nicely shaded although there is a more open area on a cul de sac with a small playground area. It's a nice campground with many nice sized dry level sites. - Charlie K
May 2014 - $20.00
This used to be a great park but has gone down hill a lot. Electrical service at sites is dated and very under-powered. There were 6 sites fed by one 80 amp breaker and the Rangers comments were "shut off your A/C". We moved to a 50 amp site in another area and our EMS showed one leg at 122 volts, the other at 115! Stayed here over Memorial day for 14 days and saw NO meaningful security except for the county sheriff deputy drove through 2 times! The Ranger was off for the weekend so only the volunteers were available. Loud cars drove through all night! We had reservations for later in summer and have already cancelled them. Gnats are very numerous, you will need a LOT of bug spray to sit around a campfire here! - Fulltimer5
Apr 2010 - $18.00
Beautiful park. Very woodsy and scenic. Nice lake for fishing and birdwatching. Campgrounds were deserted during our visit. Camp hosts are very nice and helpful. Fantastic covered bridge that had us worried our rid would not be able to use, but it was no problem. Most of the sites are wooded but there is a small loop of open sites near the playground. Restaurant and concessions will open mid April. Be sure to stock up in the small town of Morrison if you need anything. There are plenty of horse trails which you can use. Wish it had water or sewer but there is a dump site. Will be sure to visit again. - redshoe

We were going to stay here and ended up not due to the creepiness of it. The beautiful pines that cover this campground are only beautiful on the road in. Once you get inside, they are all half dead and oozing sap on everyone's tents/campers. The seasonal campsites are cluttered with so many lawn ornaments they look like an episode of Hoarders! Creepy place. - Valerie C
Jun 2008 - $27.00
This campground has no business letting "outsiders" in. This establishment only caters to the seasonal camper. Rules of the campground are not clearly posted anywhere. There did not seem to be any organized activities. There were no tents there at all when we camped. Staff was rude and refused our attendance on their "hayride". The only bath house was lacking attention and extremely dirty. Doors falling off of hinges and cobwebs everywhere. The swimming hole looked like a mucky swamp infested with bacteria. Fishing pond was also lacking attention. Not much in way of a store with camping supplies. Sites were tight for the more modern campers with slides. Only nice feature was the beautiful pine trees. I would not camp here again. - musuru24
Jun 2008 - $27.00
Unbelievable. Most terrible camping experience we've ever had. The owners were rude and belligerent. Do not come here and do not bring your children. The owners screamed and yelled at us and my children, threatening to throw us out of the campground for singing children songs on the hay ride. My 5 and 7 year old were in total fear...screaming, crying. I argued with the owner after we were threatened and accused of using profanity...something we never did, nor did anyone else on the hay ride. I cannot explain their behavior, but they did call the sheriff to have us thrown out. This is a place for regulars...yearly and seasonal guests. I suggest if you consider coming for a weekend stay, that you do not. You will be an outsider and they will throw you out for any reason they wish, truthful or not. The bathrooms and showers were disgusting. I felt that my family was in danger staying there. Signs all over the grounds read "we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone". The playground sign reads "if you are older than 6 years old, and caught playing here, you will loose your playground privileges" How can they even prove age? Do they ask for the child's drivers license? The pond is considered "great for swimming". I wouldn't let my kids put one toe in that disgusting water. - PineView worst trip EVER

This is an older campground that the previous owners have let it go into disrepair. The new owners purchased this about three years ago and are trying very hard to bring back to life. The new owners are vary personable and reach out to new campers that are there. They came over to our site and introduced themselves to us on Sunday which I find outstanding and asked if anything needed to be done.
I did mention that some trees need to be trimmed to provide for additional clearance for large rigs. We might come back in a year or two to see what other improvements, that they have made to this campground. - Jim W1

Stayed at the Green River Oaks Memorial Day Weekend and had a blast. Owners and staff were incredible. Sights were large and clean and park was amazing. We had stayed there years ago and the owners have since changed and have done a great job. - BenFranklinC
May 2015 - $50.00
When we first arrived water was leaking from the hook ups, I let them know. There were holes in the ground I asked to be covered up so my children wouldn't get hurt and the play areas are outdated and old and I even asked to have that addressed, I didn't want a kid to get hurt. Although it's under new ownership, they were extremely rude and the place is the worst we have been too. What horrible owners. We won't be back and I suggest you look elsewhere. - john voiles

Nice park for hiking and picnicing, but the campground is not ideal. Most sites are very unlevel and on grassy hills within a tall pine forest. The size of the sites makes most of them unsuitable for trailers/RVs, yet the unlevel terrain makes them unsuitable for tents as well. Also, the rangers did little to keep the noise down from other campers. While the bathroom had flush toilets and showers, there were far too few of them for the # of sites, and they were crowded and dirty as a result. I'd not camp here again, but will do a day visit. - WinnieViews
Aug 2006 - $10.00
We stayed here in August. They do have water available and a dump station. The shower building is fairly new and well maintained. There are trails to hike and a playground for children in the picnic area. There is also a lodge in the park with cabins and a restaurant. There is a creek flowing thru the park and fishing is allowed. The only negative is the train tracks at the back of the park. - corgi lovers

We have spent a wonderful weekend at Lake Ladonna. The staff was very friendly and helpful. This park has a new owner and great improvements have been made through out the park. The bathrooms are all new and very clean. The kids had a great time at the beach and the entertainment was a blast! My family will be spending more weekends at this campground this summer. I would highly recommend this campground to all families! - espo9999

OK park. It is a typical park in this area in that there are a lot of RVs but no one there until the weekend. Roads are gravel, with ruts. We were there at the time a tornado set down at a RV park about 2 miles away. We spent about 1 1/2 hours in the store as shelter. It had windows and not much protection. I almost could not get out, as the road had some serious drainage issues. Wi-Fi was good. Site was very unlevel. I would not stop again. - bobowill

Rate reflects monthly rate. This is no longer a Passport America park. This is a get-away park for Chicago folks. Most sites are seasonal most are well kept and nicely landscaped. The residents are neighborly. The owners are on-site and accommodating. There is a restful, bucolic atmosphere here, especially during the week. Things ramp up a little on weekends and there are many activities. Big highlight for my sons was the weekly Sunday morning frog jumping contest. The fishing is good, catch and release for cats and bass; keep panfish if you like. The laundry is adequate. Showers/restroom a little dated but clean and serviceable. Like most of Illinois, there is high iron content in the water - you'll want a new filter when you leave. We would return. - Joann26

This is a Passport America park that is very popular with locals as there are mature trees and several lakes for fishing or swimming plus themed activities for kids and adults. Families come here for generations from what we were told. Interior roads are dirt/gravel and the sites were mainly grass. Some sites are very unlevel. We were near the office so had a back-in site with FHU and a decent WiFi signal. The owners are extremely nice and very helpful. The grounds in no way compare to modern RV parks we are accustomed to. Showers and restrooms need major work and cleaning. - Bookwormonwheels

This was my second visit here. I was with my daughter and her family. They like it for the activities for my granddaughters. We camp in a motorhome and tow a car. The first thing you notice is the extreme angle the entrance has with the road. I guess that's why there very few motorhomes there. Check-in was an ordeal due to the unfriendly and indifferent staff. If we could have gotten a refund, the weekend could have ended at that time. There was another family with us so we had three sites reserved. They had us and the other couple in the wrong sites, but since we were all together, switching them should have been easy. Nope, not without talking to the other family, who wasn't coming to the next day. We went to a fourth site. The lack of cooperation in resolving the issue was something I've rarely encountered.
The campsites are quite large, and there is no designated pad to park an RV on. Also, there are no permanent fire rings, so driving into an old fire pit is possible. Although they had quite a bit of rain the day before we got there, the ground was quite firm. The water and electric hook-ups are nicely elevated, so connecting is easy. The sewer is not right next to the water which is desirable.
There is no cable TV and even a digital antenna won't get a strong signal. We did not come to watch TV, but the nightly news and weather would have been nice.
Wi-Fi is available, but there is a hefty fee to get Internet access. They had a coupon for 4 hours free, but when I inquired about it at the office, I was met with more indifference. But, by this time I was used to it.
We were there in the spring and it got cold one night. So much so, my daughter emptied a LP tank. They have a very short window (½ hour) that you can get a tank filled, which of course you would not know about until you try. When she did go during the window time, at first she was ignored.
I do not have to stay at this campground; I will not again. - Martini

This park has a lot to offer. And it could be great if management would actually enforce the rules they have posted everywhere. Rules when you make a reservation, rules on the web site, rules in the front office, rules on the map, rules on the schedule of activities. BUT - most people who camp here break the rules. Quiet hours. What's that? No golf carts during quiet hours? Lie. Map say 7 MPH, signs in the campground say 10 MPH - right! It's the Chicagoland Speedway for all the numerous golf carts! And the dust. WOW. We found the staff to be on and off. Sometimes very friendly and helpful. Othert imes, just acting like we were bothering them. There are a lot of seasonal trailers in the park, and they are very well maintained. My issue is that if I pay $65 a night for a campground, I expect to be wowed. And not nickeled-and-dimed for every event. The mini golf was $3. The course was debris-ridden and on some holes, in disrepair. The mini-golf was typically unmanned. The weekend we camped, there was a fireworks show and that was pretty good. It was longer than I expected and very nice. This park is LARGE. Be prepared to walk. Everywhere or spend $60 a day to rent a cart. - NetteK

Wonderful park for the grandkids. They have such a good time here. We have been coming here for years. They used to have WI-FI so I had to use an aircard. Satellite reception was great. The area we stay in has no defined parking spaces so you just park on the grass next to the utilities (although it was quite level). Several pools and lots for the kids to do here. We will definitely come back again and again. - rovingnomad100

We stayed here for a long Fourth of July weekend, and were extremely pleased. We stayed at a premium site (full hook-ups) right across from the pool and bar. The pool was well-kept, and right next to the bar that had an XM radio station playing most of the day. The bathrooms were also quite clean, and there is a general store of sorts with arcade games, random items (shirts, snacks, camping supplies) and a concession stand of sorts. There were many activities available, some free. Great for kids. Getting to the spots can be tough. You have to follow an employee from the entrance, and be wary of the trees and a few narrow paths. - David Johnson

This is a really neat resort with lots to do. It is well kept and managed. Pool is just the right size and very clean. The namesake lake seems to be underused, but it apparently has lots of fish and they have boats available. If you bring a kayak you may be the only one out there and it is basically 5 minutes from end to end, but there are other areas in this region to paddle if thats your thing. This resort is a true hybrid, and entertains adults as well as kids. Kids get a pool party and crafts on Saturday. For adults, there is a margarita bar with regular 'bags' tourneys, and on some Saturday nights, a live band playing until around 10 PM. A large proportion of the park is seasonal, but the daily area gets the prime spots near the pool, store, and shower-house. Its not the quietest campground, but is a good mix, and gets much quieter after the band shuts down. Ask about the weekend's agenda, or seek a site farther from the pool to get some distance from the band/stage. We were here on a rainy weekend and the band started about an hour late, so it ran until after 10:30, when the agenda said it would end at 9:30. Not a big deal, understandable I guess. Nearby is Timber Lake Playhouse, a summer stock professional theater that is surprisingly good for such a rural area. We saw Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. If you are here during the theater season, see what they are showing, they are really quite good. Timber Lake is a one of a kind resort with something for everyone, as long as you don't want to go to sleep too terribly early. - m11_9

Links Between Illness and Global Warming?
Dr. Paul Epstein is a physician in Boston, and the associate director of the Center for Health and the Global Environment at Harvard Medical School. He's created a niche as an eco-physician, exploring the link between increased illness and global warming. Illnesses such as heatstroke, asthma and allergies are the more obvious outcomes of a warmer and more polluted planet, but Epstein says an increase in infectious diseases such as malaria and West Nile virus may also be linked to the greenhouse effect.

The score-distributional threshold optimization for adaptive binary classification tasks
Binary classification
Binary classification is the task of classifying the members of a given set of objects into two groups on the basis of whether they have some property or not. Some typical binary classification tasks are medical testing to determine if a patient has certain disease or not (the classification property is the disease) quality control in factories; i.e.

Mathematical optimization
In mathematics, computer science, or management science, mathematical optimization (alternatively, optimization or mathematical programming) refers to the selection of a best element from some set of available alternatives. In the simplest case, an optimization problem consists of maximizing or minimizing a real function by systematically choosing input values from within an allowed set and computing the value of the function.

Text Retrieval Conference
The Text REtrieval Conference (TREC) is an on-going series of workshops focusing on a list of different information retrieval (IR) research areas, or tracks. It is co-sponsored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (part of the office of the Director of National Intelligence), and began in 1992 as part of the TIPSTER Text program.

Information retrieval
Information retrieval (IR) is the area of study concerned with searching for documents, for information within documents, and for metadata about documents, as well as that of searching structured storage, relational databases, and the World Wide Web. There is overlap in the usage of the terms data retrieval, document retrieval, information retrieval, and text retrieval, but each also has its own body of literature, theory, praxis, and technologies.

Statistical classification
In machine learning and statistics, classification is the problem of identifying which of a set of categories (sub-populations) a new observation belongs, on the basis of a training set of data containing observations (or instances) whose category membership is known. The individual observations are analyzed into a set of quantifiable properties, known as various explanatory variables, features, etc. These properties may variously be categorical (e.g.

U.S. and Mexico to Open Talks On Freer Migration for Workers
Published: February 16, 2001
(Page 2 of 2)
Aides to the Mexican president said that when he talks about the problems and trends of immigration, he rarely refers to government studies. Instead, Mr. Fox draws from the lives of the families around his ranch.
''This is not a guy who has to study about immigration,'' Mr. Castañeda said, referring to President Fox. ''This is a guy who comes from a state that has been sending migrants to the United States for 100 years.''
An estimated 150,000 undocumented Mexican immigrants enter the United States each year. Their labor -- in Florida orange groves, Georgia onion fields, Las Vegas hotels and Oregon nurseries -- has fueled growth in many parts of the American economy. And remittances from Mexican immigrants -- between $6 billion and $8 billion a year -- is Mexico's third largest source of foreign revenue, behind oil and tourism.
Aides to President Bush and President Fox said that their meeting was aimed mainly at building a personal rapport and would not produce new agreements. The two are expected to be together for about seven hours, including a half-hour visit by Mr. Bush to President Fox's mother, Mercedes Quesada.
Other than immigration, the presidents are expected to discuss a range of issues including drug trafficking, possible energy agreements and ways to resolve water disputes. Relations with Cuba and Washington's military aid to Colombia are also likely to come up, aides said.
In the last few days, the two leaders have received dozens of letters from advocacy groups urging that the governments consider human rights and family needs when setting immigration policy. And on Wednesday, a panel of immigration experts from both sides called on the two presidents to negotiate new ways to manage the border.
The United States-Mexico Migration Panel was led by Andrés Rozental, former deputy foreign minister of Mexico, and by Mack McLarty, who was a special envoy to Latin America for former President Bill Clinton.
Mr. Rozental said, ''The U.S. and Mexican governments have never wanted to sit down and say, 'Here is the reality of immigration.' Instead they have let it grow into the chaos that it is.''
In recent months, there has been increasing support among both Republican and Democrats in Congress for measures that would increase the numbers of Mexicans granted temporary agricultural work visas each year. One proposal, forged by a Democratic Congressman from California and a Republican from Oregon, has won the support of labor leaders and several American grower associations.
Rep. Howard L. Berman, an architect of the proposal, said that it would increase the numbers of guest workers from around 40,000 last year to some 150,000 in five years. The proposal would also allow migrants with a certain number of years of agricultural service to apply for legal residency. And the proposal calls for granting legal residency to undocumented agricultural workers already employed on American farms.
A proposal by Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas also seeks to increase the number of guest workers. However, he has said that the proposal does not allow the migrant workers to apply for residency, nor does it call for any amnesty.
In a briefing on Wednesday, a Bush administration official said that the president had expressed interest in the various guest-worker proposals.
However, the official said, President Bush has said that he did not believe that amnesty agreements were the best way to address abuses against illegal immigrants.
''While the president does not believe that amnesty is the only means by which humane treatment and the status of migrants can be addressed,'' the official said, ''I can assure you that we believe that the issues of migration are going to be an ongoing discussion between the two countries.
''I can assure you that it's going to be addressed at a sufficiently high level that they can make some real progress on this.''

Josh manages DividendInvestor's model dividend portfolio, the Dividend Select Portfolio. Josh joined Morningstar in 2000 as an automotive and industrial stock analyst. After leaving in 2003 to join UBS Investment Bank as an equity research associate, he returned to Morningstar in 2004 to develop DividendInvestor.
Peters holds a BA in economics and history from the University of Minnesota Duluth
and is a CFA charterholder. He is also the author of a book, The Ultimate Dividend
Playbook, which was released by John Wiley & Sons in January 2008.
Dividends are for everyone regardless of age. The outcome of owning dividend-yielding stocks is the key variable-higher-yielding stocks with safe payouts being less risky while affording investors who don't need current income the ability to reinvest/reallocate the capital.
The goal of the Dividend Select Portfolio is to earn annual returns of 9% - 11% over any three-to-five year rolling time horizon. We further seek to minimize risk, as defined by the probability of a permanent loss of capital. For our portfolio as a whole, this goal is composed of:
3% - 5% current yield
5% - 7% annual income growth
DividendInvestor℠ focuses on the activities of portfolios of Morningstar, Inc. that are invested in accordance with the Dividend Select strategy. These portfolios are managed by Morningstar Investment Management LLC, a registered investment adviser, who manages other client portfolios using these strategies.From the DividendInvestor news file this week:* Magellan Midstream Partners MMP raised its quarterly cash distribution to $0.82 a unit, up 2.2% from the previous quarter and 10.8% from a year ago. This represents a 26th consecutive quarter of rising pay, and while the pace of growth has slowed, the current pattern of 1.75 cent sequential quarterly increases keeps the partnership on track to meet management's target of 10% distribution growth for 2016 and at least 8% for 2017.http://www.magellanlp.com/magellannews.aspx?id=2997FEC8-D9DF-4484-AA18-C5AB22D8CE57* Beyond that, the week's news flow on Wall Street was dominated again by quarterly earnings reports. Four of our portfolio holdings released results: General Electric GE, Genuine Parts GPC, Johnson & Johnson JNJ, and Philip Morris International PM. Morningstar analyst notes for all four stocks are included below.* Next week stands to be the busiest of the season for second-quarter earnings reports with 10 of our 25 holdings scheduled to announce results. Compass Minerals CMP and Verizon VZ are scheduled for Tuesday, followed by Altria MO, Coca-Cola KO and Southern SO on Wednesday; American Electric Power AEP, Enterprise Products EPD, and Realty Income O on Thursday; and United Parcel Service UPS and Ventas VTR on Friday.

Fastenal FASTValuation 07/20/2016 | Kwame Webb, CFAWe are lowering our fair value estimate to $41 from $42 per share, which represents 24 times and 22 times our 2016 and 2017 earnings per share projections, respectively. On an enterprise value/EBITDA basis, our fair value estimate represents 13.4 times and 12.0 times 2016 and 2017 EBITDA, respectively.Under our base case, we believe Fastenal's revenue will grow at an 8% average annual rate over the next five years. Our growth estimate is based on a 1% net annual increase in stores and an 7% annual increase in same-store sales growth. Although at first glance this appears to be an aggressive growth figure, we highlight that between 2010 and 2012, same-store sales growth was 12%-17% before decelerating to 3% in 2013 and returning to a low-teens growth rate in early 2014. We expect a sales acceleration because Fastenal has continued to expand its store based salesforce. The business model is also increasing its large store count and emphasizing national accounts, which is increasing average order size and sales per store.Higher sales growth should expand operating margins approximately 30-40 basis points per year during the next five years, relative to the last decade's median 60 basis points of annual operating margin expansion. We use a three-stage discounted cash flow model to value Fastenal's share price. In the next five years, we expect free cash flow to equityholders to grow at a 7% average annual rate to $1.89 per share.General Electric GEAnalyst Note 07/22/2016 | Barbara NoveriniWe're maintaining our $30 fair value estimate and wide-moat rating for General Electric following second-quarter earnings that really held no surprises. The industrial behemoth continued to face a challenging global backdrop, particularly in resource-driven industries, which once again translated to steep declines in sales activity in GE's Oil and Gas and Transportation segments. As such, GE's industrial segment revenues declined nearly 1% year-over-year on an organic basis, despite otherwise healthy sales in Power, Aviation, and Healthcare.Despite sluggish organic revenue growth, industrial operating margins (excluding Alstom) managed to remain flat year over year at 14.2%, reflecting ongoing progress in GE's cost-cutting initiatives as well as some benefits from pricing outpacing inflation. These factors helped improve gross margins by 110 basis points since the prior period, which offset some of the negative impact of product mix in the quarter. As GE continues to work excess cost out of both its legacy industrial businesses, as well as within newly acquired Alstom, we expect stronger future operating leverage as volumes improve across the portfolio.Although organic revenue growth has trended slightly negative through the first half of 2016, the healthy, but backhalf loaded backlog in Power and Aviation, combined with growing momentum in Healthcare, still makes it possible for GE to reach its 2%-4% organic industrial revenue growth target for 2016. That said, even if GE misses this target because of ongoing volatility in the global macroeconomic environment, we still believe that GE's balanced portfolio is positioned quite well for the long run. Ongoing Alstom integration, a growing digital business, and increasing focus on aftermarket services, in our view, continues to offer GE shareholders a long runway for high quality industrial earnings in a slow-growth industrial world.Genuine Parts GPCAnalyst Note 07/19/2016 | Zain AkbariWe do not plan to make a material change to our $86 per share fair value estimate for narrow-moat Genuine Parts after languid second-quarter earnings. Revenue slid 1% and net income fell 2% in the quarter as demand softness continued in the industrial and electrical/electronic units (consistent with industry trends) and the automotive group posted a disappointing 0.7% sales decline. While the results will lead us to revise our short-term expectations modestly, our long-term outlook is intact, calling for 4% top-line and 9% EPS growth on average over the decade ahead.The decline in second-quarter automotive revenue (down 1% excluding acquisitions and foreign exchange) leaves the unit behind our full-year 2016 sales projection through the first half (0.5% growth versus our 4% expectation). However, we expect a recovery as warm summer temperatures lead to part failures, offsetting the impact of a mild winter that has depressed results to date. We expect rejuvenated revenue growth to reinvigorate segment margin growth, which has been stagnant as flat sales have left operating leverage unchanged. Our forecast calls for 15 basis points of segment operating margin expansion in 2016, with a long-term 10% estimate versus 2015's 9.1%.While the firm's performance lagged, we were encouraged to see continued progress in improving payables as a percentage of inventories, which ended the quarter slightly above 100% from 91% at the same point last year. Leading auto-parts retailers (as well as industrial distributors in select sectors) can achieve attractive financing terms from suppliers due to their scale and ability to move centralized stores of slow-moving items through a large distribution network. This constitutes a significant working capital advantage versus subscale peers, and we are encouraged that Genuine Parts has continued to progress toward leading pure-play automotive parts retailers such as O'Reilly (99% in fiscal 2015) and AutoZone (113% in fiscal 2015).Johnson & Johnson JNJAnalyst Note 07/19/2016 | Damien Conover, CFADriven largely by outperformance in its drug group, Johnson & Johnson reported second-quarter results exceeding both our and consensus expectations, and we plan to slightly raise our fair value estimate. Nevertheless, we continue to view the stock as slightly overvalued, with increasing concerns for generic or biosimilar competition for complex drugs Concerta, Invega Sustenna, Risperdal Consta, and Remicade, which collectively represent over $10 billion in annual sales. Despite these concerns, we remain confident in the company's wide moat, driven by steady innovation in the drug and device group coupled with solid brand power in the consumer group.While partly supported by reserve adjustments in the quarter, the drug group continues to lead the company, with 13% normalized growth supported by both mature and new drugs. However, we expect this growth to decelerate in 2017 as branded competition increases and generics launch on complex older drugs. On the branded side, new competing immunology drugs (Novartis' Cosentyx, Eli Lilly's Taltz, and Takeda's Entyvio) are likely to take market share from Johnson & Johnson's largest drug segment of immunology drugs. Further, we expect biosimilar Remicade to cause close to 20% annual declines in J&J's branded Remicade sales by 2018.While older drugs face increased competition, new drugs are mitigating the pressures. In particular, recently launched cancer drugs Imbruvica and Darzalex are posting rapid growth supported by excellent clinical data. Further, we expect immunology drug guselkumab will help J&J maintain its leadership in immunology based on the drug's superior efficacy profile to AbbVie's Humira in psoriasis.Further helping support the bottom line, cost-reduction programs in consumer and device divisions should lead to almost 500 basis points of margin expansion for the company. As the consumer group finally fixes its manufacturing issues, we expect strong leverage from this segment.Johnson & Johnson: Valuation 07/19/2016We are increasing our fair value estimate to $112 per share from $109 because of stronger margin expectations based on cost-cutting initiatives and the growth outlook for high-margin drugs. In particular, we hold high expectations for immunology drugs guselkumab and sirukumab, both of which carry strong margin profiles. After reviewing the clinical data generated by guselkumab in psoriasis, we believe the drug will post peak sales of more than $3 billion based on strong efficacy and a safe side effect profile. We continue to hold a strong outlook for diabetes drug Invokana, cardiovascular drug Xarelto, HIV treatment Endurant, and cancer drug Imbruvica. Overall, we expect annual earnings-per-share growth will average 4% during the next three years, as strong growth in new pipeline drugs should offset some patent losses in the pharmaceutical division. We expect operating margins to increase in the near term as a result of waning cost-remediation efforts in the consumer group and increasing cost-containment efforts throughout the firm. However, by 2018-19, we expect margin pressure due to the loss of patent protection on several high-margin drugs, including immunology drug Remicade.Philip Morris International PMAnalyst Note 07/19/2016 | Philip Gorham, CFA, FRMPhilip Morris International missed our earnings forecast by a penny in the second quarter, representing the second consecutive narrow quarterly miss, but a deteriorating headwind from currency allowed management to raise its full-year guidance range by $0.05. The results give us increased confidence that the firm will meet our full-year EPS estimate of $4.47, which implies impressive currency-neutral earnings growth of over 10%. We are maintaining our $95 fair value estimate, and we believe the strong price/mix of over 6% achieved this quarter is evidence of the pricing power that underpins our wide economic moat rating. In our opinion, Philip Morris is a high-quality business that should deliver stable, if not spectacular, cash flows and earnings growth in the medium to long term. Nevertheless, we think the stock has become a little frothy, and we recommend that investors wait for a more attractive entry point.PMI narrowly missed our second-quarter revenue forecasts on volume, particularly in the Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa segment, where volume growth slipped almost 5 percentage points sequentially over the first quarter to negative 4.0%. PMI underperformed the industry in several key markets, including North Africa, where Marlboro 2.0 failed to gain traction. Globally, adjusted volumes fell 4.3%, a sequential deterioration and worse than our long-term forecast by around a percentage point. We remain confident that this decline rate will moderate, particularly because the 6% pricing taken year over year is unlikely to be sustained in the long term.Following a steep margin decline in the first quarter, PMI again reported an 80-point contraction in its second-quarter EBIT margin, which fell to 41.4%. The firm is investing in both heat-not-burn and vapour platforms, and we expect margins to recover in the second half of the year as that spending eases slightly. In addition, we think organic growth is likely to reaccelerate to the high single digits as PMI cycles slightly softer reports from a year ago. For the full year, we still expect low-double-digit organic earnings per share growth, a faster growth rate than most of the companies in PMI's large-cap consumer staples peer group.The incremental spending on iQOS is significant for the long term, not just the second half of the year, and this was demonstrated in the product's impressive second-quarter growth. The heat-not-burn product now has a 2.2% market share in Japan, while global shipments of heatsticks have soared to 1.2 billion. We expect Philip Morris to accelerate the rollout of iQOS in new geographies this year, which could provide a long-term boost to the top line. We think heat-not-burn is the category most likely to emerge as the long-term winner in the fragmented e-cig industry, so we view Philip Morris' investments as justified, although its success is likely to be dependent upon regulators' acknowledgement of reduced-risk benefits. At a time when e-cigs pose a risk to Big Tobacco's economic moats, heat-not-burn allows manufacturers to continue benefiting from procurement cost advantages and leverage the strong brand equity of their cigarette brands. For this reason, we believe Philip Morris may be one of the manufacturers most protected as smokers migrate to e-cigs.

I've been thinking lately, there just HAS to be a better way to file store receipts. I like to keep them in case I ever have to take something back (which does happen from time to time), and also so I can go back and look to see how much I spent that month if I want to and what exactly I spent it on.
1. What do you file your store receipts in? Also, do you file by store name, date, or something else?
2. How long do you keep them before you throw them out?
