CYBERSPACE (AP) - The world's largest retailer is stepping up its game when it comes to helping people compare prices. Wal-Mart is expanding an online tool that checks prices on thousands of products.
The Savings Catcher service had been available in only seven markets before - but is now being expanded to cities nationwide. The service is being phased in over the next few months.
Wal-Mart also plans to offer more products in the price search. If the tool finds a lower price elsewhere, it refunds the difference to shoppers in the form of a store credit.

The explosive supernatural fantasy novel that inspired the blockbuster manga thriller!The trouble began when ninth grader Kakeru found a beautiful teenage psychic named Ayano in his room–in desperate need of help. She and her equally gifted friends had just escaped from a secret organization whose agents train young psychics to carry out their fiendish plans.Now psychic thugs have been ordered to hunt down the runaways–and Kakeru. Ayano is certain the only reason they haven't been caught is that Kakeru's supernatural skills are saving them. Kakeru, who thinks he's utterly ordinary, finds this hard to believe. Still, why do amazing things happen whenever disaster threatens to strike? Why did a girl whisper "Kakeru" right before experiencing a truly mind-blowing death? For better or worse, what happens next will depend on Kakeru. But first he must discover what his friends and enemies already know: the dangerous truth about himself.

I am doing my taxes on TurboTax and after all day today I noticed my Schedule D have an error if the number of short termtrades entered manually is larger than 20. My entry number 21is missing and the resulting gross and capital gains and lossesare less than what I typed into the table. These are optiontransactions and I do not try to import data for Quicken.The error seems easy to track down (still takes me half a day)but my question is whether this is a software or hardware error.I recently installed a Syquest removable drive and probably I didnt install it right or there is a driver error.Can someone please tell me if this occurs in any other PCsThank firstname.lastname@example.com
The IRS were making revisions on its Schedule D way to late. Intuit continued in its committment to ship the Pro Series/Turbo Tax software as is without the D1 attachment. You should be able to get a update within product line web site. Just to make sure email customer service to make sure before you download. Intuit does a reliable effort to be up to date with all forms; sub-schedules and tax laws.I hope I was some help clearing that up.
the problem you are describing is NOT hardware related. If you have diagnosed the problem accurately it is definitelt software related. you should call tech support and discuss it with themdoesn't anyone care that Intuit has discontinued Quicken for Mac
It is indeed, quite disappointing to me that Quicken for Mac is no more. However, I don't believe from an investor's point of view that this is a major concern. I really don't see any other company threatening intuit's stomping ground with some miracle new mac finance software that will somehow capitalize on Quicken's customer base and leave INTU scratching their heads, muttering "what did we do wrong?". I still use quicken 4 and am quite satisfied, so maybe the hypothesis that the software may have reached some degree of evolutionary perfection on a dwindling platform makes the decision more understandable. It costs a lot to keep an application selling in the stores, and since INTU can only make money by selling, it stands to reason that they just may know what they're doing by dropping Mac.

NEW YORK (AP) - Dick Jauron showed the world how to handle being on the hot seat: win 13 games, a division title and The Associated Press NFL Coach of the Year award.
Jauron, who needed a winning season to impress new general manager Jerry Angelo and keep his job, led the Chicago Bears to the NFC Central crown and a first-round playoff bye.
Their turnaround earned Jauron 24 votes from a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the NFL. He edged New England's Bill Belichick, who had 19c votes.

Phil Shenon writes: "I noticed the recent post on John McCone and wonder if it isn't worth pointing out — given the recent fierce debate on the site and the criticism of my Politico piece — that Arthur Schlesinger's quotation is strong evidence to support the idea that Bobby Kennedy DID have suspicions about Castro and Cuba, at least early on?"

JFK on John McCone
President Kennedy was aware of McCone's less than enthusiastic embrace of his administration. As reported by Talbot in The Devil's Chessboard, "In March, the president's secret White House recording system picked up a heated conversation between the Kennedy brothers about their increasingly disloyal CIA director. McCone, Bobby informed his brother, was going around Washington feeding anti-Kennedy information to the press. 'He's a real bastard, that John McCone,' responded JFK. 'Well, he was useful at a time,' observed Bobby. 'Yeah,' replied the president ruefully, 'but, boy, it's really evaporated.'"[iv]

CIA admitted to lying about JFK's assassination, but no one noticed
The digerati at Uproxx.com make my point: the CIA's JFK story is 'evolving' and few have noticed. Read more
Kennedy suspicion never fades
From an editorial in the Fort Wayne (IN) Journal-Gazette, Kennedy suspicion never fades
Shenon, author of "A Cruel and Shocking Act," a history of the Warren investigation, notes "there are 15 places in the public version of the report where the CIA has deleted sensitive information – sometimes individual names, sometimes whole sentences. It is an acknowledgement, it seems, that there are still secrets about the Kennedy assassination hidden in the agency's files."
CIA coverup admission continues to make news
Phil Shenon's Politico story about the CIA's "benign JFK coverup" has legs, as they say.
First Iran, now Wall Street, is paying attention.
The spy agency acknowledges that John McCone and other high-ranking CIA officials kept "incendiary and diversionary issues" from the investigation.
The CIA's new JFK story: 'the benign coverup'
Charles Pierce at Esquire has an apt observation about Politico's revelation this week that CIA director John McCone, as part of a "benign coverup," hid relevant information from investigators of the assassination of President Kennedy.
The CIA's modified limited hangout: Politico on the spy chief who lied about JFK
Phil Shenon continues his intrepid reporting on the assassination of JFK with a report in POLITICO Magazine.on the findings of the CIA's in-house historian that former director John McCone covered up key information from assassination investigators.
The CIA, it turns out, has confirmed that yet another senior agency official–McCone–withheld significant information from the Warren Commission. The story is accompanied by the agency's assurances–and Shenon's–that the Warren Commission's conclusions about who killed JFK were correct in every respect.
The weakness of this claim should be obvious. If the Warren Commission investigation was compromised from the top by CIA officers–and now even the agency belatedly agrees it was–then confidence in its findings must be reduced. Logically, one cannot impugn the investigation without impugning its findings.
But the CIA is willing to try.
The modified limited hangout
The CIA is now playing defense against the widespread and accurate public perception that it is not being forthcoming about JFK's assassination. The agency, for example, retains 1,100 JFK assassination records that it may or may not release as mandated by law in October 2017.
Some of these files are potentially explosive. See "7 JFK files the CIA still conceals."
The CIA's cooperation with Shenon, along with its release last month of presidential daily briefings from the Kennedy era, are intended to show the public that the agency is being candid, willing to admit mistakes, and so on.
To be sure,the agency's very limited disclosures are something of a contribution to the record of JFK's assassination.
A November 25, 1963, briefing for President Johnson, was revealing. It showed what the CIA wasn't telling the White House. The agency didn't care to share just how much senior officers knew about the obscure Lee H. Oswald before President Kennedy was killed.
The Politico story shows that McCone dutifully went along with another aspect of the CIA cover-up. He knew about–but did not tell the Warren Commision about–the CIA's conspiracies to kill Castro, leader of the communist revolution in Cuba.
So we can now say, without fear of contradiction, that the top three officers of the CIA did not cooperate with the investigation of JFK's murder.
Deputy director Richard Helms and counterintelligence chief James Angleton took the lead in the CIA cover-up and McCone followed.
The CIA is engaged in what one conspirator in the Watergate era called "the modified limited hangout." This is the Washington art of disclosing lesser crimes and misdemeanors in service of hiding greater wrongdoing.
Now in 2015
This is a sorry episode in American history that invites–nay, demands–public suspicion.
The Politico story tells us that Director John McCone's control of the CIA in 1963 was nominal. It confirms that senior CIA officials agreed they should not cooperate with law enforcement efforts to investigate President Kennedy's murder. And it shows that CIA officials today–52 years later!–feel the need to manage the problem of secrecy around JFK's assassination. Fifty two years later.
The good news is that when Washington officials with something to hide go into "modified limited hangout" mode, they are usually in trouble, and frequently subject to more embarrassing disclosures.
The bad news is that "perception management," which is what the CIA is now engaged in, is often successful.
The JFK acid test will come in October 2017. That's when the CIA is supposed to release those 1,100 documents. As Politico and JFK Facts have reported, those documents could be embarrassing for the agency.
Politico's mistake
Shenon makes one significant mistake in his piece where he writes:
"Robert Kennedy's friends and family acknowledged years later that he never stopped fearing that Castro was behind his brother's death."
This is not factually supported. From the moment his brother was attacked, Bobby Kennedy suspected anti-Castro Cubans and/or organized crime figures were responsible.
With hours of the assassination, RFK met personally with McCone. He asked McCone if CIA people were behind his brother's murder. McCone said no.
A few days later, Bobby and Jackie Kennedy told a friend, William Walton, that they believed JFK was the victim of a domestic, not foreign, conspiracy.
In fact, as David Talbot's book Brothers, shows in detail Bobby's conspiratorial suspicions rarely, if ever, settled on JFK's enemies on the left. Bobby and Jackie asked William Walton to tell high-level contacts in Moscow that, despite Oswald's leftist politics, they did not hold the Soviet Union responsible for events in Dallas.
In an email, Talbot wrote, "Phil Shenon continues to recycle the myth — long propagated in CIA circles — that Fidel Castro was behind the JFK assassination. He now adds another piece of disinformation, asserting that Robert Kennedy also fell for this CIA propaganda line. This is completely false. I interviewed over 150 close friends, colleagues and family members of Bobby Kennedy, including Kennedy administration officials and insiders, for my book. NONE of them indicated to me that Castro was among Bobby's leading suspects in the assassination of his brother."
"Instead, they said that RFK immediately focused on the CIA and its ANTI-Castro operation as the source of the plot against President Kennedy. My sources included close advisors of Bobby Kennedy like Adam Walinsky, Frank Mankiewicz, Ed Guthman, Richard Goodwin — as well as assassination researchers with whom Bobby Kennedy met during his secret search for the truth."
Which only makes sense. If top CIA officials blocked a full investigation of the murder of a sitting president, they had something to hide. Bobby Kennedy knew that in the 1960s. And, now a half century later, we know that CIA officials still have something to hide: the 1,100 documents scheduled for release in 2017, especially the "7 JFK files the CIA still keeps secret."
CIA chief told RFK about two shooters in Dallas
Why did Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy believe that his brother President John F. Kennedy was the victim of a conspiracy, as his son recently said?
Did RFK have any evidence for his belief, asked several readers who had seen the widespread coverage of RFK Jr.'s comments
It turns out RFK had it on good authority that two people were involved.

Posted Nov 8 2010 11:02AM
The lesson that the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers taught us last year -- that great teams can pace themselves in the regular season and flip the switch once the playoffs begin -- has apparently been forgotten by the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers.
With the exception of Boston's post-opener hangover in Cleveland, the two conference champs have been perfect through the first two weeks of the season. While other contenders are still trying to find their rhythm or losing focus from night to night, the Lakers and Celtics have hit the ground running, despite injuries to key players.
The Lakers are the third most improved team statistically from last season, which is kind of scary. Even scarier is that they have the No. 1 offense in the league with Kobe Bryant shooting worse than he did last season and Ron Artest shooting just 39 percent.
The Celtics haven't been quite as dominant, but they're not holding back. Rajon Rondo (40.4), Ray Allen (39.1), Paul Pierce (37.3) and Kevin Garnett (33.6) are all averaging more minutes than they did last season, with Doc Rivers going only nine-deep in his rotation thus far.
Can the two veteran teams keep this up? We'll learn a lot on Thursday, when they both face tough challenges on TNT. The Celtics visit the Heat (8 p.m. ET) and the Lakers visit the Nuggets (10:30 p.m. ET) in what is clearly the best doubleheader of the season thus far.
• Last week: East contenders provide a fascinating Week 1
• This time last year: Suns Rise to the Top With Big Road Wins -- No teams remained unbeaten, the Blazers were trying to figure out if Andre Miller and Brandon Roy could play together, Tony Parker got hurt for the first time, the Clippers rebounded after an 0-4 start and Allen Iverson's Memphis Grizzlies career was already over.
Hero Team of the Week: New Orleans (3-0) -- Another three games, three more quality wins. They're not blowing anybody out, but no one said they had to.
Zero Team of the Week: Minnesota (0-4) -- The Wolves had the dreaded back-to-back in Miami and Orlando, but an average margin of defeat of 27.5 points over four games just can't be forgiven.
High jumps of the week: Philadelphia (+8), New Orleans (+7), Golden State (+5), San Antonio (+5)
Free falls of the week: Portland (-7), Toronto (-6), Milwaukee (-5), Minnesota (-5)
East vs. West: The West is 16-8 (.667) against the East, 8-6 this week.
Pace: Possessions per 48 minutes (League Rank)
Off: Points scored per 100 possessions (League Rank)
Def: Points allowed per 100 possessions (League Rank)
The league averages 96.9 possessions (per team) per 48 minutes and 102.9 points scored per 100 possessions.
L.A. Lakers (7-0)
Pace: 99.2 (8), Off: 115.0 (1), Def: 101.2 (11)
Maybe it's time to start the "MVP" chant at Staples whenever Pau Gasol shoots free throws. He's not only outscoring Kobe Bryant, but he leads the league in raw +/- at plus-113 and matched Bryant with a triple-double of his own against the Blazers on Sunday.
Previous: 1
Boston (6-1)
Pace: 93.8 (24), Off: 103.9 (15), Def: 95.6 (3)
Boston has to be anticipating Delonte West's return from suspension. In addition to alleviating the load that Allen and Pierce have been carrying, he will provide a boost to the offense, which has been rather mediocre. Thursday's game is huge, but the Celtics can't look past Dallas on Monday.
Previous: 2
New Orleans (6-0)
Pace: 93.9 (23), Off: 105.1 (11), Def: 96.2 (4)
None of the Hornets' six wins has come by more than nine points, but that should come as little surprise. With Chris Paul on the floor, New Orleans is 112-68 (.662) all-time in games determined by nine points or less, as opposed to 85-86 (.497) in games determined by 10 points or more.
Previous: 10
Miami (5-2)
Pace: 93.7 (25), Off: 107.5 (5), Def: 91.2 (1)
No issues here with Eddie House getting the first "last shot," because he was the open man on the play. The problem was that he was also 0-for-6 on threes at that point. Of the nine Heat players who have played 100 minutes, House is the only one with a +/- less than plus-27. He's a minus-2.
Previous: 3
Orlando (4-1)
Pace: 95.8 (19), Off: 106.2 (8), Def: 92.1 (2)
The Magic have proven themselves very good at getting their games canceled and beating bad teams. With both Jameer Nelson (ankle) and Vince Carter (hip flexor) currently banged up, a couple of good teams -- Atlanta on Monday and Utah on Wednesday -- visit the Amway Center this week.
Previous: 6
San Antonio (4-1)
Pace: 99.8 (7), Off: 106.5 (7), Def: 103.9 (16)
The way that Richard Jefferson (20.4 ppg, 65 percent shooting) has been playing, it's clear that Gregg Popovich could make a lot of money as a summer basketball instructor. Manu Ginobili followed his clutch game-tying jumper in Saturday's OT win over the Rockets with the week's best tweet.
Previous: 11
Atlanta (6-1)
Pace: 94.8 (22), Off: 112.1 (2), Def: 104.4 (17)
After looking solid against some weaker competition, the Hawks' defense got scorched by the Suns on Sunday. They're still undefeated with their starting lineup intact, but Marvin Williams (knee) is not expected back until later this week at the earliest. The Magic (Monday) are the first winning team they've faced.
Previous: 7
Denver (4-2)
Pace: 96.7 (16), Off: 108.3 (4), Def: 99.9 (7)
Al Harrington hasn't exactly been efficient (44 percent shooting, only 11 free-throw attempts in six games), but he's given the Nuggets a second scorer as Chauncey Billups (33 percent from the field thus far) struggles to find his shot. Harrington had big buckets in each of his team's two wins this week.
Previous: 8
Dallas (3-2)
Pace: 95.2 (20), Off: 101.9 (18), Def: 97.4 (5)
Two games against the Nuggets have knocked the Mavs down a couple of spots defensively, but it's been Dallas' offense (41 total turnovers, specifically) that has failed them in their two losses thus far. They're also suffering too much of a dropoff when they go to the bench. J.J. Barea is a minus-52 in 88 minutes.
Previous: 5
Oklahoma City (3-3)
Pace: 96.0 (18), Off: 101.2 (19), Def: 106.3 (21)
How bad has the Thunder's ball movement been? Their 14.8 assists per game is the lowest average in NBA history and their assist rate of 43.8 percent is the lowest since the 1978-79 San Diego Clippers assisted on only 41.4 percent of their field goals. By that measure, it's the worst ball movement in 32 years.
Previous: 9
Portland (5-3)
Pace: 92.2 (29), Off: 105.9 (10), Def: 103.3 (14)
Six games in nine days took a toll on the Blazers' defense, which allowed 118.6 points per 100 possessions in their three losses this week. Their status as the third-worst defensive rebounding team in the league showed up in Thursday's overtime defeat to the Thunder.
Previous: 4
Golden State (4-2)
Pace: 99.8 (6), Off: 104.1 (13), Def: 102.2 (12)
The Warriors have continued to shoot poorly (41 percent) since their first two games, but they've picked up a couple of more wins with ... pause for effect ... defense. The 78 points the Jazz scored on Friday were the fewest the Warriors have allowed since Nov. 25, 2006, when they beat the Clippers, 109-77.
Previous: 17
Phoenix (3-3)
Pace: 97.8 (14), Off: 109.2 (3), Def: 107.8 (27)
The offensive and defensive rankings look just about right, but the Suns' pace rank is the bizarro stat of the week. They've survived a tough early schedule, but it's not getting easier any time soon. They face the Kings and Nuggets at home and visit the Grizzlies, Lakers, Heat and Magic in the next 11 days.
Previous: 15
Utah (3-3)
Pace: 98.3 (12), Off: 101.0 (22), Def: 100.9 (9)
When you score just 78 points against the Warriors, it's fair to say you're still working things out offensively. The Jazz are lacking depth (only six players averaging more than 14 minutes) and it doesn't get any tougher than the four-day stretch they face this week, with visits to Miami, Orlando and Atlanta.
Previous: 13
Memphis (3-4)
Pace: 101.2 (3), Off: 101.0 (21), Def: 102.9 (13)
After Friday's heartbreaking double-OT loss in Phoenix, the Grizzlies get another shot at the Suns on Monday, the start of a stretch where they play seven of nine at home. Maybe this time, they'll make the free throws they're supposed to make and miss the ones they're supposed to miss.
Previous: 12
New York (3-3)
Pace: 100.3 (4), Off: 103.9 (14), Def: 100.2 (8)
The Knicks' defensive improvement has come mostly from their bench, and mostly from Toney Douglas and Ronny Turiaf. In fact, the six reserves who have played this season all have +/- marks better than each of the five starters. Turiaf ranks 18th in the league at plus-56, higher than anyone on the 6-0 Hornets.
Previous: 19
Chicago (2-3)
Pace: 98.4 (11), Off: 104.1 (12), Def: 104.6 (18)
The Bulls shot 54 percent in their three games this week and are the third-most improved offensive team in the league without Carlos Boozer having played a minute. But they lost to the Knicks and Celtics because of turnovers (40 total) and porous defense (112.3 points allowed per 100 possessions).
Previous: 14
Houston (1-5)
Pace: 102.3 (2), Off: 107.0 (6), Def: 109.0 (28)
The Rockets finally got off the schneid on Sunday and have four more winnable games coming up. Thus far, they're a minus-25 with Yao Ming on the floor and a plus-21 with him on the bench. With Aaron Brooks (ankle) out four to six weeks, they're hoping Kyle Lowry (back) can get back on the floor Wednesday.
Previous: 18
Sacramento (3-3)
Pace: 98.4 (10), Off: 106.1 (9), Def: 109.5 (29)
Saturday's game against the Grizzlies was supposed to be a measuring stick for the Kings. Tyreke Evans and Francisco Garcia measured up pretty well, but their teammates did not. DeMarcus Cousins did not take well to coming off the bench for the first time, finishing with just four points and three rebounds in 23 minutes.
Previous: 22
Cleveland (3-3)
Pace: 96.4 (17), Off: 102.7 (17), Def: 106.7 (24)
The 39 points (on 13-for-20 shooting) that Daniel Gibson scored in the Cavs' two wins over the weekend are the most he's scored in any two-game span since November of 2008. LeBron is gone, but the Cavs are still at the top of the Central Division. And they have four very winnable games in the next nine days.
Previous: 24
Milwaukee (2-5)
Pace: 93.7 (26), Off: 93.2 (29), Def: 98.8 (6)
Andrew Bogut is shooting 51 percent from the field, but his teammates are shooting 38 percent. The Bucks are still strong on the defensive end, but no team has regressed more offensively. At least they don't have to play the Hornets -- who held them to 81 points on Saturday -- anymore.
Previous: 16
Philadelphia (2-5)
Pace: 98.1 (13), Off: 103.0 (16), Def: 101.1 (10)
If it weren't for a flurry of late turnovers against the Cavs and a miracle three from Cartier Martin, the Sixers might have won all four of their games this week. Either way, they looked like a decent offensive team, shooting 51 percent and scoring 108.4 points per 100 possessions in the four games.

Pace: 98.6 (9), Off: 95.5 (28), Def: 103.5 (15)
Shooting 32 percent and losing to the Sixers by 26 points may be the worst performance any team has had this year. The Pacers' defense has been OK, but their offense has been absolutely anemic (86.9 points per 100 possessions) in the last three games. They get a shot at Houston's horrid defense on Friday.

New Jersey (2-4)
Pace: 93.4 (27), Off: 96.6 (26), Def: 106.4 (23)
It's one thing for Brook Lopez to have a rough night (3-for-17) against Dwight Howard. But for him to also struggle against the Charlotte and Miami frontlines is disconcerting. In total, Lopez shot 28 percent and averaged just 4.7 rebounds in the Nets' three losses this week. And he faces Howard again on Saturday.
Previous: 21
Detroit (2-5)
Pace: 93.3 (28), Off: 100.8 (23), Def: 107.5 (26)
After his blow-up with John Kuester and one-game timeout, Rodney Stuckey came up big Sunday. Seven of his 21 points came in the final five minutes of a five-point win over Golden State. It was the second time he has had 20-plus points and nine-plus assists this season, after having one such game last year.
Previous: 29
Charlotte (1-5)
Pace: 90.8 (30), Off: 99.0 (24), Def: 105.1 (19)
Don't count the Bobcats out just yet. They started 3-9 in each of their first two seasons under Larry Brown, and they recovered to make the playoffs last year. Speaking of slow starts, they're scoring just 88.1 points per 100 possessions and have been outscored by 30 points in the first quarter over their six games.
Previous: 26
L.A. Clippers (1-6)
Pace: 94.9 (21), Off: 96.7 (25), Def: 105.6 (20)
After an ugly first three games, the Clippers have played much better. If he weren't owed $42 million over three seasons, they would probably prefer that Baron Davis stay out of the way. With Davis out (of shape), rookie Eric Bledsoe is averaging 13 points and 7 assists in four games as a starter.
Previous: 27
Washington (1-4)
Pace: 99.9 (5), Off: 95.5 (27), Def: 106.8 (25)
With Gilbert Arenas back, John Wall putting up historical lines and Kirk Hinrich filling in the holes, the Wizards will be OK on the perimeter. The interior is another story, though. They rank 30th in offensive rebounding percentage and 29th in points in the paint.
Previous: 28
Toronto (1-5)
Pace: 97.8 (15), Off: 101.2 (20), Def: 106.3 (22)
That defensive ranking sure went down in a hurry. If the Raptors are willing to accept moral victories, then their trip West wasn't a complete disaster. They hung close with the Lakers and Jose Calderon may have had a breakthrough. He shot 12-for-16 and had 12 total assists in the two losses over the weekend.
Previous: 23
Minnesota (1-6)
Pace: 103.9 (1), Off: 93.1 (30), Def: 110.7 (30)
Neither the standings nor the statistics backed him up at the time, but Michael Beasley called his Timberwolves "the worst team in the NBA" after three games. It turns out that Beas is a pretty good analyst. The only question is how in the world did the Bucks lose to these guys?

Wake for Boy, 7, in Abuse Case in Newark
By RICHARD LEZIN JONES
Published: January 24, 2003
NEWARK, Jan. 23— About 250 people attended a wake here tonight for 7-year-old Faheem Williams, a Newark boy whose death prompted wide scrutiny of the handling of child abuse cases in New Jersey.
Faheem's mother, Melinda Williams, attended the service, at Emmanuel Church of Christ. Ms. Williams, who was struck by a car the same day that two of Faheem's brothers were discovered in the basement held captive only a few yards from his remains, sobbed heavily throughout the service, burying her face in a tissue and moaning repeatedly, ''Why?''
At one point, Ms. Williams was led from the church by two nurses who had been stationed at her side.
''She's in no condition to talk,'' said Ron Schwartz, one of Ms. Williams's lawyers. ''She came here to put a little closure on Faheem.''
Faheem is to buried Friday morning at Hollywood Memorial Park in Union, N.J.
During the service, the church's pastor, Bishop James D. Churchwell Jr., said that Faheem's death was a reminder that ''our children are in a condition where they need a savior. They need salvation.''
The Rev. Doris E. Ragins urged those attending to view the service as a celebration of Faheem's life, not his death.
''He's free, he's way up there,'' she said, gesturing to the church's ceiling. Then, motioning to the child's half-size, closed white casket, she said, ''This is for our star.''
Mayor Sharpe James of Newark told the audience: ''Faheem's life was not lived in vain. Future boys and girls will not suffer his fate because of his sacrifice.''

I am notorious for my lack of a sense of direction.
Just the other day one of our photographers at the newspaper caught me going south when I should've been going north to an assignment.
He laughed about it, as did I. But there have been many times I've given him wrong directions to an assignment and he hasn't laughed.
Even with a GPS and written directions I still get it wrong six out of 10 times.

Does it matter that you know? Yes, if you want to properly prune because pruning after June 1 could result in no blooms next year.
This spring was a great one for spring bloomers: lilacs, viburnums, azaleas, rhododendrons and many others were all able to do their thing without a major frost or freeze here at the farm.

Purchased Desktop from Cyberpowerpc. Took a month to finally get the computer. Got it turned it on Neon fans spun Motherboard lit up and i got excited but long and behold monitor never came on. Tried several things finally gave up and called Tech support. Took several hours to finally get a hold of someone. (Mike ext 157 as i seen another complaint had talked to this guy)
Tech had me reseat memory and pop battery on Mobo. Then had me reseat the CPU. Nothing worked. At this point no real complaints except the computer did not work. Shipped it back to them for repairs. They had it one day and sent it back claiming they had fixed the problem. Was very excited thought i was finally gonna get to see what my new high end PC could do.
Turned it on Neon fans spun Motherboard lit up and i got excited but long and behold monitor never came on. Now i was unhappy. How can a pc go back for repairs and come back with the same problem? Needles to say it took me to days to get a hold of tech support and the guy was pissed i called about it again. I mean excuse me paid a lot of money for a foot stool.
Didin't mean to bore anyone with the details but wanted you to understand where i was coming from. End result luckily i was still in the thirty day range by one day so sent it back for a refund. (Thirty days starts from the day they ship it not the day ordered) Still gonna cost me 65 bucks to ship this foot stool back to them. So out 65 bucks waited a month and a half and have nothing to show for it.
Any company who can't repair there own product and then wants to charge you to ship it back to them for a refund is a ripoff. Tech support is horrible it seems they only know three things to fix a pc and if that doesn't work you have to send it back to them. Where they turn it on and watch the neon fans spin and the motherboard light up and say well it's fixed. Thank you Cyberpowerpc would sue there as$es if it was really worth it over 65 bucks

Without a doubt, one of the most powerful aspects of the Recolor Artwork feature inside of Illustrator is its ability to make precise color replacement. This function is actually done through the Assign tab found in the Recolor Artwork dialog box. But before I open that dialog box, I'm first going to add a color or two to our Swatches panel, and again it's important to realize that when you are working with Recolor Artwork, it's always best to prepare your colors that you want to use in advance. Once you're actually inside of the Recolor Artwork dialog box, it's too late to start messing around and trying to find and create your color. So one of the exercises that I want to explore in this particular movie is converting this beautiful full color artwork into like a one color or a two color spot color job, so maybe only using two different Pantone colors.
So I'll go to my Swatches panel, and I'll click on this button over here called Swatch Libraries menu. I'll go to Color Books, Pantone Solid Coated, and let's just add a few colors arbitrarily. I know I'm just going to take some regular plain colors here. Let's do Reflex Blue, and let's choose like a Red color here as my Pantone Red 032. So we have those two colors. Right now, I'm going to close this panel and one important thing that I'm going to point out here is that, I did not put these into a color group, I left these basically floating free inside of the Swatches panel and as we see we'll work now inside of the Recolor Artwork dialog box.
I'll see why generally it's best to put this into a group. But I just want to be able to contrast and show you what difference is between colors that live in groups and colors that do not. Now I'm going to hit Command+A or Ctrl+ A to actually select all the objects in this particular document that's called floral_design_2. And I want to change all its colors. I want to convert them by either using one or two different spot colors to explore each of those specific options. So with my artwork selected, I'm going to go over here to the Recolor Artwork button and I'll now open up the Recolor Artwork dialog box, and right away Illustrator brings me here to the Assign tab. I'll move it here just to the right side over here, so that we can see on the left side all the artwork that we are looking at.
Now the first thing to notice, remember that we created those new two Pantone colors, but they were not added to any group. As far as ease of accessibility goes, I really can't see those Pantone colors at all unless they were inside of a group. So in order to find those Pantone colors, we just have to go digging a little bit deeper, but we'll get to that in a moment. The first thing to notice that right now inside of our documents we currently have seven colors, and Illustrator provides each of those colors here in a list. Well, these are each of the colors that appear in the document, each of these areas here. For example, these distinct rows that exist here are referred to as color rows. In fact, what these color rows will actually represent is a formula.
Illustrator is letting me know that right now this color exists in my document. The arrow that appears here means that that color will change, and then the color here is kind of the end of equation. That color will change into this new color. So as we can see here we have Current Colors and then we have New Colors. And again, each row basically tells me that this color here will change into this color. Now by default, the first time that I launch the dialog box and I move to the Assign tab here, Illustrator automatically remaps each color to itself. So in that way, no color changes here in my artboard. But you can actually drag these colors around. For example, say I wanted all objects that were currently filled with this yellow color, we fill with this purple color. Well, I can click on this color right here and drag it up over here, and now what I specify is that all objects that had this color, now get changed into this color.
Now remember there is no Undo here inside of the Recolor Artwork dialog box. I'm just going to click on this button right over here to basically re-bring the colors back inside of the dialog again. So as I discussed in the beginning, my goal here is to actually turn all these particular colors in this document to just one color. I want, let's say, to create just a one-color job. Maybe we'll use that Pantone Reflex Blue. Now obviously, if I simply just choose Pantone Reflex Blue for all this artwork, I'm just going to get one solid block of blue. Instead what I would like to do is I would like to have Illustrator look at each of these objects and convert them to different values or tints of that Pantone color.
So what I can do is come over here where it says Colors, and right now it's set to Auto. That means that Illustrator is automatically giving us the exact number of colors that appear inside of our document. But I'm going to change that to one. In doing so, you could see that Illustrator collapsed and took all the colors of my document. Right now there are seven colors, I see a black and white and then I see the other five colors here, and Illustrator now is converting all of these colors to one new color. Now, if I want that one new color to be the Pantone Reflex Blue, I'll double-click on this icon to bring up the Color Picker. Then again I'll click on Color Swatches, as I want to see all the swatches in my document. I'll move this particular arrow up towards the top over here, where I have my Pantone Reflex Blue. I'll click OK, and now I've successfully told Illustrator to remap all my color to Reflex Blue.
However, you may note before that it says over here Current Colors (7), but I now only see five colors here, and then I see black and white here. In fact, this really won't separate as a true one-color job. That's because I now have black ink here. So the reason why this happens is because, by default, Illustrator has the ability to protect certain colors. The default setting inside of Illustrator is to always protect black and white. That's because usually you want those colors to stay. For example, let's see you have lots of text in your file, and that text is all colored black. When you want to go ahead and change colors you may want to leave that text to be Black, or if you have illustrations that use ink lines or outlines and those are colored black, you may want to leave those inking lines black, while changing all the colors inside of them. But we can actually change that by just turning on the arrow for that color.
Now see where it says two colors, I'm actually going to change that now back to one, and I'll see that the black was now incorporated in that and now the job is completely remapped to a new color. I'm going to reload the original colors again because I want to show you now an alternative method of doing that. In fact, let's say right now I want to reduce my document to only use two spot colors. So the first task that I'm going to have is first identifying where those particular colors exist in my document. Now this is a fairly simple document, but you may have a document that may have lots of different colors inside of it. So to easily identify where a color is used in your document, you can use this icon here on the bottom, this magnifying glass, which allows you to identify where a color is used. For example, I'm just going to click on this color right over here. Notice that right now it's highlighted, it has a gray background.
I'm going to click on this magnifying glass, and you'll see that right now Illustrator grays out everything except for that color background. This magnifying glass is really kind of like a toggle. So once I turn it on, it stays on until I turn it off. But I can now click on other colors to see where those colors exist. Each time I click on a color row it identifies where those colors are inside of the artwork. Now I'll click on the magnifying glass again to turn that off. And now let's say I want to leave the particular background the same, but I want to change all the colors of the flowers to something else. So rather than specify a value here in the Color field, I can simply go over here and click-and-drag to combine these colors manually. For example, I'll click on this color here and bring this one up. I'm now telling Illustrator, "take these three colors in my document and convert them to one new color." Now I want this color to be on its own. So I'm now going to take this color and bring that into this one as well. I'll even bring the black into this one as well.
So now I'm obviously working with one set of colors here and one set of colors here. Now here is one of the reasons why working with groups is so important inside of Illustrator. If I want to now specify those Pantone Colors as well, I'm going to actually double-click on this one, click on Color Swatches, go up to the list, choose let's say the Reflex Blue for this one, then double-click on this one right here, again click on Color Swatches, roll up again, click on the Red 032 and now apply that one. And now it has basically applied my blue and my red colors to my document. However, it would have been much easier if I would have created a color group inside of Illustrator that just contained those two colors inside of it.
Because then I can simply just click once on that group and it would automatically map those two colors to the objects. In fact, to show you what I mean, I'm actually going to click on this button over here to reload the colors again. I'm now working with seven colors. Let's say I want to remap them to a different color group. For example, this Poppy group, this Poppy group only has four colors. So by clicking once over here, Illustrator will automatically find colors and kind of combine them together and allow me to reduce my document to only use the colors found in this particular color group. So it just saves a lot of manual work and a lot of extra clicking when you use color groups in Illustrator.
Now, in reality, you can see how Illustrator remapped all these colors here. It probably would have made a lot more sense to remap this color to this color right here. Now Illustrator unfortunately has no way to analyze the colors in that kind of way. So there is the button here on the bottom that allows you to randomly change the color order. In doing so, you can start to experiment with different ways of how those colors get replaced throughout your document. So at the end of the day, the Recolor Artwork dialog box, specifically here in the Assign tab really allows you to be very precise about how you want to swap or change your colors, once you understand what these icons represents. In other words, these are the colors that currently exist in your document, this is indicating that those colors will actually change and this indicates the color that those colors will change into.
So gone are the days of digging into your document to try and select different objects, ingredients and patterns, the Recolor Artwork dialog box does all that for you in just a few simple clicks.

Had a really lovely time at metta. The therapists are very welcoming and friendly and gave me some delicious tea while I was waiting. Eventhough the massage was only 30 mins it started with a foot soak and massage which was a nice surprise and the therapist asked about where I had tension and my lifestyle etc. I'd had a very stressful day and I felt really well looked after, it was exactly what I needed. Only point to mention is that although it was a deep tissue massage and I was expecting it to be firm, what the therapist called medium pressure I would have called pretty firm. Fine for me, but worth thinking about before you ask for firm pressure!

Product Review (submitted on January 23, 2010):
I didn't think any tea could compare to the aroma of the Supreme Breakfast, which has always been my favourite, but this one does. The aroma alone is worth the cost! But the tea is absolutely delicious. It has the strength and full body of Assam with the smoothness of the Ceylon, and bit of earthy sweetness from the honey. It's just wonderful!

Please I went ahead and signed for the 12 month membership! I paid on my membership every month and towards the end didn't use 3 of the prepaid massages over the last 3 months of my membership (which ended in June of 2012).
Last night I called and wanted to book an appointment using one of my prepaid massages from 6 months ago. I was told I couldn't do such..and that my account had been sent to collections.
My question was.. Collections for what? I had paid ON TIME for the duration of my membership. To my understanding if you sign a contract for 12 months they cannot continue to bill me unless given permission or I come in to renew the said contract. I'm SO disappointed! Before then I had nothing but good things to say about Massage Heights but I will NEVER sign up for a contract with them again and will be contacting my legal team immediately to get this matter resolved.

First of all I'd like to say that this plugin works perfectly from an admin perspective. I've not had any issues or errors with anything which is great! However, I wondered if there was a way for either myself or in an update to the plugin, for users to invite other people from the front-end of the site rather than through the dashboard. It would essentially be the same widget from the dashboard but viewable in the site. Even if it was a link to a standard page with the email form, no real need for it to be implemented within the site design, much like the 'blocked to invited users only' page.
I have a setup using BuddyPress and my users aren't able to see the dashboard. Any ideas?

Barnet chairman Tony Kleanthous is confident the club can avoid their traditional final-day relegation battle this season - despite currently propping up League Two again.
Mark Robson's young side have picked up just one point from their four games but Kleanthous has hinted he is ready to add some experience in the loan market.
"I am convinced that come the end of the season the league table will look considerably different from how it does today," he told the club website.
"I am confident that the hard work we are all putting in will be rewarded.
"Understandably the poor start to the season has created anxiety amongst our supporters and I want to directly communicate to you all that despite the results to date I believe that we will soon be able to turn the corner and so bring to an end this cycle of battling relegation that has been our fate for the last few seasons.
"I can say this with confidence, simply because I know that we now have a larger budget than ever before, a budget that will allow us to sign the quality of player who'll add the experience and ability that will make for an improved squad."

Rising CO2 levels making fish crazy!
by ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies on 16 Jan 2012
Parrotfish Chlorurus enneacanthus - rising CO2 is impacting on nervous systems of fish. ARC Centre of Excellence Coral Reef Studies ©
The Earth's carbon dioxide emissions may be affecting the brains and central nervous system of sea fishes with serious consequences for their survival, an international scientific team has found.
Carbon dioxide concentrations predicted to occur in the ocean by the end of this century will interfere with fishes' ability to hear, smell, turn and evade predators, says Professor Phillip Munday of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies and James Cook University.
'For several years our team have been testing the performance of baby coral fishes in sea water containing higher levels of dissolved CO2 – and it is now pretty clear that they sustain significant disruption to their central nervous system, which is likely to impair their chances of survival,' Prof Munday says.
In their latest paper, published in the journal 'Nature Climate Change', Prof Munday and colleagues report world-first evidence that high CO2 levels in sea water disrupts a key brain receptor in fish, causing marked changes in their behavior and sensory ability.
'We've found that elevated CO2 in the oceans can directly interfere with fish neurotransmitter functions, which poses a direct and previously unknown threat to sea life,' he says.
Prof Munday and his colleagues began by studying how baby clown and damsel fishes performed alongside their predators in CO2-enriched water. They found that, while the predators were somewhat affected, the baby fish suffered much higher rates of attrition.
'Our early work showed that the sense of smell of baby fish was harmed by higher CO2 in the water – meaning they found it harder to locate a reef to settle on or detect the warning smell of a predator fish. But we suspected there was much more to it than the loss of ability to smell.'
The team then examined whether fishes' sense of hearing – used to locate and home in on reefs at night, and avoid them during the day – was affected. 'The answer is, yes it was. They were confused and no longer avoided reef sounds during the day. Being attracted to reefs during daylight would make them easy meat for predators.'
Other work showed the fish also tended to lose their natural instinct to turn left or right – an important factor in schooling behavior which also makes them more vulnerable, as lone fish are easily eaten by predators.
'All this led us to suspect it wasn't simply damage to their individual senses that was going on – but rather, that higher levels of carbon dioxide were affecting their whole central nervous system.'
The team's latest research shows that high CO2 directly stimulates a receptor in the fish brain called GABA-A, leading to a reversal in its normal function and over-excitement of certain nerve signals.
While most animals with brains have GABA-A receptors, the team considers the effects of elevated CO2 are likely to be most felt by those living in water, as they have lower blood CO2 levels normally. The main impact is likely to be felt by some crustaceans and by most fishes, especially those which use a lot of oxygen.
Prof Munday said that around 2.3 billion tons of human CO2 emissions dissolve into the world's oceans every year, causing changes in the chemical environment of the water in which fish and other species live.
'We've now established it isn't simply the acidification of the oceans that is causing disruption – as is the case with shellfish and plankton with chalky skeletons – but the actual dissolved CO2 itself is damaging the fishes' nervous systems.'
The work shows that fish with high oxygen consumption are likely to be most affected, suggesting the effects of high CO2 may impair some species worse than others – possibly including important species targeted by the world's fishing industries.
The team's latest paper 'Near-future CO2 levels alter fish behavior by interfering with neurotransmitter function' by Göran E. Nilsson, Danielle L. Dixson, Paolo Domenici, Mark I. McCormick, Christina Sørensen, Sue-Ann Watson, and Philip L. Munday appears in the journal Nature Climate Change.

Over shadowed by a 1300ft tall granite and quartz mountain in the shape of a sugarloaf, the bay suffers from dramatic windshifts, and huge variance in wind pressure.
