U.K. Stocks Fall for Third Day as German Debt Outlook Cut
U.K. stocks fell for a third day as Moody's Investors Service cut Germany's credit outlook and a U.S. manufacturing gauge compiled by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond dropped more than forecast.
Vodafone Group Plc dropped 1 percent after Dutch peer Royal KPN NV cut its dividend forecast. Elan Corp. plunged the most in two years in Dublin after its experimental Alzheimer's drug failed a trial. Man Group Plc rallied 4.1 percent as the biggest publicly traded hedge fund manager said it will double cost cuts and reduce reliance on products with steeper commissions.
The FTSE 100 Index retreated 34.64 points, or 0.6 percent, to 5,499.23 at the close in London, extending the three-day drop to 3.8 percent. The gauge has still climbed 4.5 percent from its 2012 low on June 1 as central banks announced measures to support the economy. The broader FTSE All-Share Index lost 0.6 percent today and Ireland's ISEQ Index sank 1.7 percent.
"Growth in the euro zone is very hard to come by nowadays and this is affecting Germany's activity too," said Simon Denham, managing director of Capital Spreads in London. "With question marks over the prized triple-A credit rating of Europe's largest economy, the markets are likely to remain on the back foot."
Moody's lowered the outlooks for the Aaa credit ratings of Germany, the Netherlands and Luxembourg to negative. The risk that Greece will leave the euro area and "increasing likelihood" of collective support for countries in debt such as Spain and Italy were among reasons for the change, Moody's said late yesterday in a statement.
German Economy
In Germany, an index based on a survey of purchasing managers in the manufacturing industry declined to 43.3 this month from 45 in June, while a services gauge fell to 49.7 from 49.9, London-based Markit Economics said in a report today. A reading below 50 indicates a contraction.
A U.S. report showed manufacturing in the region covered by the Fed Bank of Richmond contracted more than economists had forecast for the month of July. The central bank's fifth district factory index, which covers North and South Carolina, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia and most of West Virginia, fell to minus 17, the lowest level since 2009, from minus 3 in June. The median forecast of economists surveyed by Bloomberg projected the index would rise to minus 1. Reading less than zero signal contraction.
China Manufacturing
China's manufacturing may contract at a slower pace in July as the government's stimulus starts to reverse the economy's slowdown, a private survey indicated. The 49.5 preliminary reading for a purchasing managers' index released by HSBC Holdings Plc and Markit Economics today compared with a final 48.2 for June. A number above 50 indicates expansion.
Vodafone declined 1 percent to 177.45 pence after KPN cut its dividend forecast by 61 percent. The Dutch phone company reported second-quarter profit that trailed analysts' estimates as service demand in its home market contracted.
Elan tumbled 11 percent to 9.85 euros in Dublin, the most since June 2010. Bapineuzumab, an experimental Alzheimer's drug the company was developing along with Pfizer Inc. and Johnson & Johnson, failed to improve signs of dementia in the first of four studies testing the drug.
Elan shares make up 10 percent of Ireland's ISEQ Index by weighting, according to Bloomberg data.
Banks Drop
A gauge of banking shares declined 1.1 percent as the European Commission said it will propose tomorrow that manipulation of interbank lending rates should be subject to criminal sanctions.
Standard Chartered Plc fell 2 percent to 1,429 pence and Lloyds Banking Group Plc declined 1.8 percent to 28.76 pence.
Man Group jumped 4.1 percent to 72 pence. The company said it will reduce expenses by $100 million over the next 18 months, adding to $95 million of cost cuts announced in March. It also plans to sell fewer so-called guaranteed products, which generate high commissions for employees and have drawn subdued demand from customers.
Provident Financial Plc surged 11 percent to 1,297 pence. The U.K.'s biggest subprime lender said first-half net income rose 20 percent after the number of customers taking out high-interest credit cards increased.
Croda International Plc added 6.1 percent to 2,364 pence after the world's second-largest maker of cosmetic ingredients reported a 6.3 percent gain in first-half pretax profit on higher demand in North America. Croda's "strong" results may provide reassurance to investors, JPMorgan Chase & Co. said in a report.

EAST LANSING -- Riley Bullough last played in a football game that counted on Sept. 23, 2011 when he was a burly quarterback for St. Francis High School in Traverse City.
"He's a little bit shiftier, got more moves, so I could see us definitely complementing each other," Bullough said.
"I've said it all along, I think this is the best way to do it."
Langford said he thought whichever tailback had the hot hand would be the starter, but that both he and Bullough would do well. Bullough said formations in practice existed where both were on the field at the same time.
"If you can have two guys doing two completely different running styles, that's hard for a defense to stop," Bullough said.

At least five people are dead after a storm system spawned severe weather and tornadoes across six states in the southeastern United States, Wednesday.
Meteorologists said the storm system was part of a cold front moving across the southeast, the same area that was heavily damaged earlier this year by one of the most active tornado seasons on record.
Thousands of residents were still without power Thursday as the clean up began from Louisiana to North Carolina.
In Alabama, National Weather Service research teams were trying to determine how many twisters touched down, and just how big they were.
A suspected tornado tore down trees and demolished mobile homes near the Auburn University campus.
"All the sudden it just kept getting bigger and bigger and the winds just got real heavy," one eyewitness told ABC's "Good Morning America."
A storm this severe so late in the year took many residents by surprise.
"The weather doesn't follow the calendar. The weather follows ingredients," explained Bernie Rayno, senior meteorologist at AccuWeather.com.
Those ingredients came together Wednesday night, which some say created a scene like something out of a movie.
"It was like the 'Wizard of Oz.' How they all get lifted up and just start spinning. I felt like I was on a roller coaster," said Stephanie Blauvelt, a storm survivor.
Weather experts said it was the worst bout of weather for Alabama since about 250 people were killed during a tornado outbreak in April.

Although experts are calling the short-term retail effects of the Hudson Foods beef patty recall minor, the incident has raised concerns about related food-safety issues. Some of the issues touched upon by the experts interviewed by SN included the danger posed by a false sense of comfort after a recall, the need for producers to better manage crisis situations, the need for a better defined and possibly more authoritative role for government, the need for retailers to provide more ...

How much are these and what website can I get them from for retail?

June 3, 2013 BY Aaron Hope / 14
'Caution, Flammable' and 'Warning, Explosive' should both be heeded, but their precise meanings are also fairly different. Perhaps this is a sign that like last year's Levi's collaborations, the 'Red Firecracker' Nike SB Dunk Low could be the more limited counterpart to the established black 'Firecracker'. With the Levi's Dunks, the indigo Hyperstrike climbed to a higher resale value than the slightly more widely available black Quickstrike. Whatever the numbers for these fireworks-themed pairs, the relative intensity of the embroidered message most certainly resonates with the burst of energy in its red suede upper. Stick with Sneaker News for release info and let us know which of the Firecracker SB Dunks you like better.

MORRISTOWN — The unattended package found at Morristown High School Tuesday was just a lunchbox, but authorities were already monitoring the school closely after receiving a more explicit bomb threat on a bathroom wall the prior day.
The bomb threat noted Tuesday's date, according to a statement provided by the school district. It included the words "June 11, June 11, June," in various forms of handwriting, then "bomb" and "for real," a school spokeswoman confirmed.
According to the school statement, the school was thoroughly searched, and a K9 unit was on site prior to students' arrival Tuesday. Access to the building was limited and all backpacks, bags and packages were searched, the school district said.
Police from Morristown, Morris Township and Morris Plains — which all send students to the high school — are at the school, the spokeswoman said. Senior privileges have been suspended for the week, and most after-school activities are canceled, with the exception of the Natalina Honor Society Induction, the annual Classics Academy night and a Morris Education Foundation reception.
A classroom was evacuated Tuesday morning after a teacher noticed an unidentified package — later identified as a lunchbox. Parents were notified of the evacuation via an electronic alert.
According to the Morris County Prosecutor's Office, its Homeland Security Unit, the sheriff's office's bomb squad and local police all responded to the report of the suspicious package. The lunchbox was determined to be harmless, the prosecutor's office said.
Students and others took to Twitter Tuesday, spreading word of the bomb scare.
"They got the the bomb squad at school, k9's , cops ... Damn Morristown crazy, good day not to be there." Twitter user Sam__Brito wrote.
"I honestly don't wanna see Morristown have to mourn," user Siz wrote.
The school district said in its statement "enhanced security measures will remain in place for the balance of the school year," but did not specify what those measures would be.
It is asking anyone with information on the source of the threat to contact Morristown Police at 973-538-2200.
"Any threat to the safety within our schools is a very serious matter and we will continue to work closely with school officials to identify those involved," the Morristown Police Department said in a statement released Monday.
The bomb scare comes on the same morning as Princeton University shut down its campus in response to a threat of bombs in multiple buildings.
School officials in Nearby Montville have responded to at least five bomb threats
over the last few months — one of them coming the same day as five
other bomb scares throughout New Jersey. In each of the Montville
threats, no bomb was found, and administrators have said they believe
the threats are ill-advised pranks by students. No one has been
identified in the previous Montville bomb threats,
through Morris County CrimeStoppers has been offering $1,000 to anyone
helps make an arrest in any of those cases happen. Anyone with
information can visit CopCall.org or call 973-COP-CALL. Information can be submitted anonymously; no one will ask a caller's name.

What's your reason or purpose?
Pastor Jeffrey Mack | 3/6/2014, 9 a.m.
Almost everything that we do in life has a reason or purpose behind it. When we are kind and polite to others, we expect the same in return.
Some of us were brought up to "do unto others as you would have them to do unto you."
People will do things with negative reasons or motives, only to see how you will react or respond (negatively or positively). Their goal is to hurt you, not to help you.
When we learn how to give of our time, talents and treasures for the right reasons and in the right way, then, we will be able to experience life with a new perspective.
Matthew 6:1–4 (NKJV) Jesus say's:
1 "Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2 Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.
3 But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
4 that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly."
One of the problems is not just being congratulated by others; but some even like to congratulate themselves.
So the question becomes, "What's your reason or purpose behind what you do?
Is your reason or purpose behind what you do to be seen doing or doing to be seen?

Q:Whats the cheapest kind of blinds?
A:We offer a few options for cheap blinds. The cheapest blinds are traditionally mini blinds or faux wood blinds. Mini blinds are typically made from aluminum or vinyl slats. We highly recommend aluminum mini blinds over vinyl mini blinds, so much so we do not even offer vinyl mini blinds. Vinyl mini blinds lack the quality of an aluminum blind and on our website we sell aluminum mini blinds for about the same price as you will find a vinyl mini blind.
The one disadvantage to aluminum blinds is they tend to get bent easily. For just a few dollars more, you can upgrade to faux wood blinds. Faux wood blinds are a thicker slat than aluminum blinds and typically last longer, saving you money in the long run. Faux wood blinds are made to look like real wood blinds and are the most popular cheap blinds we sell.
Shop online for the cheapest blinds you will find. Our prices are rock bottom and we offer free shipping too! Our window blinds are not just cheap blinds, they are quality blinds. Buy the cheapest blinds and we are sure you will be happy you did!

LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
The Pediatric Praziquantel Consortium has been awarded a $1.86 million research grant from the Japanese Global Health Innovative Technology (GHIT) Fund. The grant supports the consortium's objective to develop and register a new praziquantel pediatric formulation for the treatment of schistosomiasis in preschool-age children, including infants and toddlers.
Founded in July 2012, the consortium is an international nonprofit public-private partnership. Merck, responsible for leading the program, provides the necessary preclinical, clinical, and regulatory resources. Astellas Pharma contributes by providing its pharmaceutical technologies in the area of drug formulation development and clinical development in children. Swiss TPH brings experience in helminths biological and pharmacological research, epidemiology, and clinical research on drug effectiveness in endemic regions.
Proper treatment of younger children with schistosomiasis is hampered due to missing clinical data and the fact that they cannot swallow existing tablets because of their size and bitter taste.
"The newly developed tablet has been reduced to a quarter of the size of the current commercial praziquantel tablet to swallow easily. We designed it to be oral dispersible so that it can be taken with or without water, allowing treatment, in principle, of very young children, including infants from 3 months onwards," said Kazuhiro Sako, vp pharmaceutical research and technology labs at Astellas Pharma and consortium board member. "A major challenge, which required a great deal of effort, was to reduce the bitter taste but at the same time keep the formulation straightforward and robust, to allow future local manufacturing and storage in endemic countries."
A taste study in African children is planned for 2015, in which the newly developed praziquantel candidates will be compared to the commercial praziquantel. In addition to funding three clinical studies, the research grant is intended to cover the costs of a high-level expert meeting in which the future regulatory and access strategy will be discussed and the costs of communication activities.

Tennis Expert Picks - All England Lawn Tennis Championships
Editor's note: In selecting our picks, the "toughest road" must be by a player currently seeded in the top 10, and a "sleeper" is someone outside the top 10.
As a professional tennis player, Brad Gilbert was always uber-competitive.
Coaching Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick, Andy Murray and, most recently, Kei Nishikori, Gilbert exploited even the slimmest of advantages.
In his role as prognosticator, Gilbert is similarly ruthless. It was he who pushed to raise the bar for Experts' Picks. How can you make accurate choices for a 128-player draw, he argued, without seeing the draw?
So far, through two majors, Gilbert has been en fuego.
"So let me get this straight," he said recently from his California home. "There have been 12 picks -- and I got seven of them right?"
Uh, yes, BG.
At Roland Garros, he went 4-for-6, along with newly minted French Open over-45 legends doubles champion Patrick McEnroe. Gilbert is two ahead of the field, a lead he hopes to extend at the All England Club.
Kudos, too, to 18-time Grand Slam singles champion Chris Evert -- the only expert to correctly choose Maria Sharapova as the women's winner in Paris.
And now, here are your Wimbledon picks. And as always, please, no wagering:

Blog Maintenance Checklist:
18 things you should do monthly for your WordPress Blog
It's been a while since I last published a post for my Blogging 101 series. I was sadly inspired to write this post due to a sad series of events and a realization that Google was not crawling MamaNYC as much as it should have been (sigh). If the point of creating a blog and publishing content is to find readers that will actually enjoy it, I want to make sure Google is actually noticing my posts! Otherwise, I would be talking to myself.
When I came back from a short hiatus from blogging in January (2014), I knew that there would be an enormous mess to clean up. Between emails piling up, an abandoned blog with lots to fix and update, and the fact that my hosting bill went unpaid for about 6-weeks (hooray! my entire blog was DOWN and nonexistent to the world!) — I had a diaster, to say the least. I had to act fast and work hard, but I am fully recovered and back to 'normal', which includes completing the following checklist at least once per month.
I know how difficult it can be to blog and worry about all the other stuff ("…you mean I can't just write content? There's MORE?!"). Hey, unless you want your blog to resemble a dead bag of bones, of course you will need to do lots of other legwork to ensure everything is running smoothly.
Think of your blog as a car…
The fine folks at the auto factory built my car (your web designer). They put all the nuts and bolts, oil and brake fluid, windows and tires.
Every few days, I run to the gas station to fill my gas tank (posts; content). The gas keeps my car running on a daily basis. I add more gas (blog posts) whenever I can. I don't want to be left stranded on the side of the road (Google abandonment issues).
However, I still need to do routine maintenance:
Tire rotation (updates!), Oil change (removing unused plugins), Car wash (review your sidebar)
All of these things are done on a routine basis to ensure top performance of my vehicle. If I neglect my car… well, you all know what will happen!
How often should you maintain your blog?
Daily, if possible! I try to do at least one or two tasks per day, such as emptying spam comments and approving the good ones. That sort of stuff should take less than 5-minutes per day. Let them build up and you might find yourself approving comments for 30-minutes!
Doing those smaller tasks will make your life (and blog!) much easier and happier. However, I still recommend setting aside at least 1-day per month to really dig in deep and take a peak at everything in your dashboard, Google Webmaster Tools, Google Analytics, and CDN account (if you have one, which I highly recommend!)
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Update your About page
Did you know that the 'About' page is one of the most popular pages created and also the least edited content? Just as your blog and life has changed it the last few weeks or months, I can assure your 'About' page has become outdated and requires a spruce up. Many people may argue that there's literally no reason to update this page. Nothing has changed, right?
I remember when I first created MamaNYC and whipped together an 'About Me' page. It was a novel (to say the least) and eventually became a forgotten thought. Months went by before I realized that the entire dynamic, focus, and target of my blog and lifestyle had dramatically increased.
Neglecting to update your 'About' page may lead to misinforming your visitors, losing out on a potential job, or worse! (Who knows… it could be bad. Real, real bad! Aaah!) But seriously, I try to read my 'About' page at least once a month to make sure I am not forgetting anything — and I make edits every single time.
Update plug-ins, themes, and WordPress software (if necessary)
These updates should be done as they become available to ensure your blog is running with the latest versions. Plugin updates may include a security hole patch. WordPress software might have an update that will speed up your site. Although these should be done as soon as possible, I recommend checking everything for updates during your monthly checkup at the very least.
Get rid of unused plugins
Plugins can really bog down your blog speed. Look through your list of installed plugins. Permanently delete any inactive plugins – they are taking up space and can also make your blog vulnerable for security issues — even though you've deactivated them.
Decide if the active plugins are actually valuable for your blog. Is it really worth slowing your blog down a bit? Is that blog even doing its job? Find out which plugins are slowing you down with P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler). This tool will help you scan your blog to find out which plugins are causing a slow performance. It will measure the impact that each plugin has on your site's load time.
While you're at it, look around for plugins that might actually be useful! You can check my list of the top free WordPress plugins — (oh, I have another one here, too!)
Clean up drafts and revisions
Here's something I didn't know until after at least 1-year of being on the WordPress platform…
WordPress saves a draft of every post and page every time you update them.
Even the slightest change, press "Save Draft", WordPress just saved another draft revision copy. So, let's say you've written 500 blog posts and made 5 revisions each (even though it is generally much more!). Let's do the math and say you've written 400 blog posts ->
5 (revisions) x 500 (blog posts written) = 2,500 revised post/page files
Now do you see just how bloated your database can become by useless and unused revised data files? Also, clean up your drafts and empty your trash – regularly! Go through each and ask yourself if you seriously plan to ever finish composing that post. I've had drafts sit for months at a time! It's a waste of space and I will hardly ever use them again. If I really like the topic idea, I write it down in my notebook.
Get started and clean your WordPress database with the WP Optimize, which is an effective plugin that allows you to clean up your WordPress database and optimize it without phpMyAdmin. Next, install Revision Control plugin so that you can limit the number of revisions that will be kept on file for each page or post.
Conduct a malware scan
Did you know that your blog can become infected with malware? It will linger in your files and you can't exactly 'see' or necessarily notice it is there right away.Do you know who will notice? Google.
Semi-luckily, Google won't immediately blacklist your site, so you will have a little bit of time to correct any problems before the search engines start to prevent visitors from visiting and getting infected. That's why this task is crucial and should be done every 4-weeks – minimum! If you can do a scan weekly or bi-weekly, do it! Get a free website malware scan at Sucuri.net for detection.
Confirm social feeds are working
Do you utilize a social fee service for your blog? Make sure they're all working and test them all out — individually. If you are using tools to automatically push your blog posts onto Twitter, Facebook, Google+ Plus, LinkedIn, or another social site, you should verify each is working properly.
Check all of your forms
If you are using forms on your blog, fill them out and submit as a test to ensure they are working properly. Do this at least once a month to determine functionality, especially if your Contact Form is the only way for a client to reach you. If you are using a third-party plugin to create and manage your forms, make sure they are updated as soon as possible.
Review your sidebar, spruce it up, create value for visitors
There are generally three spaces that are seen by every single visitor: header (w/ navigation menus), footer, and sidebar. They can grow outdated just as fast as your About page, so don't forget to audit each space at least once a month. Are you utilizing that space in the best way possible? Review that sidebar from top to bottom and check all links, images, and affiliate ads.
If you implanted affiliate banners, make sure each of them is giving you a return! That space is valuable and there isn't much available. Treat is 125×125 square of space like gold. If there's an affiliate banner taking up space and not earning any income — why is it there?
Think about where you are placing certain banners and text. Is your sidebar overcrowded? Remove a few things and tidy the place up! Make sure you have displayed all of your social networks, feeds, and contact details in the sidebar. Since this is the most universally seen space on your blog, I cannot stress just how important it is to make sure each widget area includes useful, relevant, and resourceful links or banners for visitors.
Analyze, review, update your Google Webmaster Tools account
This was my major fail moment. February and March were quite busy months and I neglected to keep an eye on my Google Webmaster Tools. Make sure Google is crawling your website and update your sitemap if necessary. Make updates if any other changes have occurred since your last monthly checkup. Check your sitemap and make sure Google is crawling your pages.
*Type this into Google (as a regular search term): site:yourdomain.com — Is the number of results close or exact to the number of posts + pages you've published? If you've published well over 800 blog posts and the number of search results is 75, you've got a problem. Take a closer look at your sitemap.
Back up your blog
This is a MUST — and the best part of all? You can automate the entire process so that you don't even have to think about doing it! You have enough on your plate, so how can you possibly remember to conduct a monthly backup? (I actually think this should be a daily or weekly chore, but at least — please, once a month!)
I like to use WordPress Backup to Dropbox, which is a free plugin that allows the user to choose a day, time and frequency for backups to be performed. Thereafter, I can have the file delivered directly to my Dropbox account. It's a no-brainer solution and definitely a great way to protect yourself and your content.
Some may not be comfortable with that backup solution, so I would also suggest BackUpWordPress, which backs up your entire WordPress installation. Everything from your posts, pages, comments, widgets, themes, plugins and files will be saved. The only difference is that there will be a file that you can thereafter save on your hard drive as opposed to your Dropbox cloud account.
Test and speed up your site load times
Did you know that Google recommends a site load time of 2 seconds or less? As one of my biggest pet peeves, I am constantly struggling to improve the page speed for MamaNYC. There are tons of things that you can do to lessen the download time. I found some great resources on how to speed up WordPress blog.
Work on your image optimization and make sure they're all equipped with alt=, title=, and dimensions (height & width).
– First, I like to run a website test speed (run it a few times spread out over a course of about 10-15 minutes; no need to record your times – use the "History" tab to see your previous load times).
– Next, I will do a few recommended changes, such as removing unused plugins and deleting revisions.
– Thereafter, I run a few more speed tests and see if my hard work made a difference. *Remember, even a few milliseconds can make a difference.
Delete spam and trash comments
Clean out your comments by deleting spam and trash comments. These can pile up quickly, so make sure deleting them is part of your ongoing blog maintenance activities. I make it a point of emptying my comment spam at least every other day since I generally average about 1,500-3,000 within a 72-hour span usually. (Side note – use Akismet to control spam blog comments!)
Check your RSS and email feeds
It is essential that your blog RSS feed and email updates service works properly. Your readers rely on those updates as a way of knowing what new content has been added for the day or week. Without those services working properly, visitors are being lost and you may be talking to yourself (no one to read your blog posts!!!).
*Tip: If you aren't already a subscriber for your own feed and email newsletter – do it now! This is the best way for you to notice that there is a problem with your feed. I actually signed up for my newsletter using two different email accounts just to be sure (or, is that called paranoia?). You will be able to quickly notice when something goes wrong with your feed or email subscriptions.
Test your email subscription form to ensure functionality is perfect. You don't want to be that blogger that lost new subscribers because her sign up form was coded incorrectly!
Check for broken links
There's nothing more annoying then clicking on a link that you expect to bring you to a resource you're interested in learning more about — only to learn that the website owner tricked you (well, not intentionally…). Think about that disappointment that you feel when another blogger has a broken link. (Do you cry, too?) This is another thing that should be done fairly regularly, but at least dealt with while you're going down your monthly checklist.
Not only can a broken link totally annoy your visitors, they'll also lead to a negative impact on your site's ranking with the search engines. This can become a huge problem and the fix is probably one of the easiest on this list! You can use an online broken links checker to find broken links and make any necessary fixes. WordPress users can download the Broken Link Checker plugin. I've used it for years to regularly check my links on all posts, comments and other content on MamaNYC for broken links and missing images. It's quite simple to use and you can also set it up to send you an email summary.
Erase all unused themes
Head on over to your themes (Appearance–>Themes). Make sure that the only theme is the one you are currently using. Remove the default themes if you haven't already (Twenty Ten, Twenty Eleven, etc.), but choose one of them to stay. Leaving one of the default themes is important because WordPress will reload and activate that theme should your current one break during an update or accidentally become inactive/removed. So, leave TWO themes: [1] current active theme; [2] WordPress default theme — all others get the boot!
(Note, just so that I don't get myself or someone else into a boatload of trouble: If you are using a child theme, do not delete the parent! Ex: StudioPress users need the Genesis parent theme to remain!)
Test your navigation
Conduct a thorough test of all your internal links along your navigation menu, sidebar, and footer. Make sure they're all working! It may seem obvious ("Why would I want to check my navigation? I already set it up and know it's working. Duh!), but you may be surprised. Something may have broken. You may realize that one of the menu options is obsolete or unpopular with your visitors.
I use a website heat map through ClickTale.com to find out where my visitors are clicking. Create a project on ClickTale so that you can have recordings of your visitors' pageviews, find out where they are clicking (heat map), and where they may be experiencing trouble. I find heat maps to be extremely beneficial in my navigation menu planning.
Analyze your Google Analytics
Although I do log into my Google Analytics account fairly regularly (every 2-5 days), I am really just a passerby on a fast moving train. Maybe I will log in to quickly see how my pageviews did for the last few days, or to log incoming referrals for a campaign that I am working on. I always like to stay in the habit of at least checking in every few days so that I can ensure my analytical code is still detecting visitors (nothing worse than realizing Google Analytics hasn't logged any visitors for 3-weeks!).
However! Once a month, I try to really sit down (when the kids are asleep) and analyze, research, discover, and plan. There's so much power behind your Analytics reports and many people don't know how to use it to maximize their own performance. Spend a few hours learning what it all means, how to customize reports, segments, create goals. Your traffic tells the story of your blog – use it to your advantage.
Discover what keywords are bringing a high volume of readers – consider doing another post (or two) based on the same topic (and be sure to link to the older post, too!). Where does most incoming traffic originate from? What social network is quickly slipping in the ranks? Have you been tweeting lately? Maybe that's why your traffic decreased -19% this month. Do some research and find out what's working and what's failing on your blog.
(And now… last, but certainly not least!)
Pretend it's your first visit on your blog
Visit your blog as though it is your very first time looking at your navigation, font sizes and styles, theme layout, and sidebar. Huh? Why? Simply because you've grown quite accustomed to your blog and it's navigation. You might be missing something that your visitors aren't, which may leave them to click onto the next blog.
Set aside 15-minutes and really try to clear your mind of everything you know about your blog. Have a pad and pen by your side to take notes of any posts, links, images, or pages that need to be refined. Take a peak at all of your different navigation menu options and ask yourself those questions you ask when you're on another blog: How can I contact this blogger? Is she on Facebook? Does he have a Twitter account? I wonder where she's from and if she's an expert in this area. Has she won any awards or nominations for blogging and writing? When did she start this blog, or blogging altogether? Where can I find a list of her current giveaways? Does she offer parenting tips and motherhood advice?
This can be trick and I often miss things since I am going too fast ("I know this page is fine!"). Stop and give yourself a minute on each page. Whenever I do this task, I use a piece of paper and write #1-10. I don't let myself stop looking until I have found at least 10 things that I can improve or fix on my blog. Trust me, I always find more than ten!
Take this checklist to go! I've put together an easy to use blog maintenance checklist printable worksheet. It lists all 18 of these tasks accompanied by a checkbox. Simple, right!? Print it out, share with your friends, and don't forget to jot down a few notes to the side if there's something you would like to further investigate. Good luck!
Blog Maintenance Monthly Checklist Printable
Is there ANYTHING that I missed?!?
Leave a comment below and tell me if there's a monthly (or daily, weekly) routine that you conduct as part of your blog maintenance. Is there any other vital task(s) that I left out?

Don't forget to take off your makeup post-bash
New Year's Eve is almost here, which means that you're probably gearing up for one heck of a celebration. If your plans this year involve pretty makeup and a later-than-average bedtime, make sure you don't forget to take your products off before you hit the sack and call it a night.
According to Allure magazine, it's crucial to remove your beauty products before bed. Your makeup can mix with your skin's oils, trapping dirt and bacteria in your pores, which could lead to breakouts and irritation. Leftover makeup can also hold damaging free-radicals against your skin, putting you at risk for fine lines and wrinkles in the future.
To avoid problems, simply wash your face before bed with something like Exuviance – Moisturizing Antibacterial Facial Cleanser. It will kill any bacteria and remove any grime. If you're seriously tired or not at home, you might want to stash Rilastil – Daily Care Make-Up Removing Wipes in your bag. Taking off your makeup is as easy as wiping your face!

A Pembroke teen was rushed to Erie County Medical Center by Mercy Flight after the all-terrain vehicle he was driving struck a bush and overturned Saturday night, the Genesee County Sheriff's Office reported.
Benjamin L. Falker, 16, was heading west on West Main Street in the Village of Corfu around 11 p.m. when he attempted to enter the sidewalk off the road's south shoulder at the intersection of Main and Prospect Street. Falker lost control of his 2012 Polaris Sportsman 500, causing the vehicle to hit a row of bushes and eject Falker before striking a utility pole and coming to rest upright. Benjamin was the vehicle's sole occupant.
He suffered a head injury and was listed in critical condition, the sheriff's office said.
Officers from the sheriff's Crash Management Team and the Corfu Police Department are investigating the cause of the crash. Charges may be pending.

• We recorded EEGs for 14 identical and 14 fraternal young adult twin pairs during one night of sleep in our laboratory. They were instructed to sleep as long as possible. The extended sleep of the identical and fraternal twins was correlated. The structural measures of sleep of the fraternal twins were not correlated. The onset latencies, awakening measures, stage changes, and rapid eye movement amounts were significantly correlated in the identical twins. The nature of the measures used supports an interpretation of hereditary aspects of sleep length and certain structural components of sleep.

Staff writer
Cesar Burgos, chairman of the Regional Transit Authority's governing board, sounded a bit like Santa Burgos on Wednesday as he declared the agency will be able to deliver the gift of streetcar service to all of St. Charles Avenue by Christmas.
Thanks to "around the clock" efforts by the RTA's staff, Burgos said, "We won the battle. We have 15 additional operators lined up to commence work. On Dec. 23, we will be operating all the way to the end of St. Charles. We're good to go."
The resurrection of post-Katrina streetcar service on the celebrated avenue began in December 2006 when the line's historic Perley Thomas cars began rolling through the Central Business District between Canal Street and Lee Circle -- about 10 percent of the full St. Charles route.
On Nov. 11, service was expanded uptown to Napoleon Avenue, about half of the route.
Service from Napoleon to South Carrollton Avenue was expected to resume in the spring, but Fred Basha, the RTA's director of infrastructure, decided that the line's new Calliope substation, built post-Katrina, could generate enough power to move streetcars all the way from the Central Business District to Carrollton Avenue.
If the authority could overcome other obstacles, Basha said last month, service along the full length of St. Charles could return by Christmas.
The obstacles: getting the poles that support the line's electrified system of overhead wires painted, which required many days of good weather; getting the state to certify the portion of the line between Napoleon and Carrollton Avenue as safe to operate; and rehiring enough operators who were laid off after Hurricane Katrina to handle the increased service.
The RTA has 21 operators handling the St. Charles route from Canal to Napoleon, RTA spokeswoman Rosalind Blanco Cook said. Expanding the service to Carrollton Avenue requires another 15, she said.
"We had to do a lot of legwork," Burgos said. "All are former operators trained by the RTA. Some were living in the city. Some were in other states."
The former streetcar operators were eager to come back, he said. "It was gratifying to say, 'Come back, we have a job for you.'¤"
Meanwhile, the poles have been painted, certification reports have been submitted to the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, and testing has gone well, Cook said.
Service hours will continue to be from 5:30 a.m. to midnight, she said. Cars will operate on weekdays every 10 minutes from 6 to 9 a.m. and 3 to 6 p.m., less frequently at other hours and on weekends.
Service on the final section of the route, along South Carrollton Avenue between St. Charles and South Claiborne Avenue, cannot resume until the substation at the Carrollton streetcar barn becomes operational -- possibly by the spring.

MARION COUNTY, Alabama -- A 16-year-old Marion County boy is charged in a Sunday morning stabbing that killed his mother and seriously injured his father, according to Sheriff Kevin Williams.
Travis Montgomery is charged with murder for the death of Sarah Renee Montgomery and charged with attempted murder for the stabbing of Wade Montgomery. Travis -- a sophomore at Phillips High in Bear Creek -- is charged as an adult.
The stabbing happened around 11 p.m. Sunday at the family's mobile home on Slaughter-Pen Road near Haleyville.
The son fled the scene and the father, who had a cell phone but no reception, made his way from the bed to a window and continuously cried for help until a relative who lives nearby heard him and called 911 about 4 a.m.
"It's pretty sad," Williams said. "Unable to call, unable to move. Luckily someone heard him."
The mother was pronounced dead at the scene and the father was airlifted to UAB Hospital, where he was in stable condition this afternoon. Wade Montgomery suffered a punctured lung and, according to a Fox 6 report, doesn't have any feeling in his arms or legs.
Deputies found Travis Montgomery this morning.
He has refused to speak to investigators until he has an attorney. Williams said an attorney will likely be appointed following a Tuesday morning bond hearing.
Williams said he is not sure of the motive.
"Him and his mother did not get along. They had words back and forth for about a week," Williams said.
Williams said authorities were last called to the home about 18 months ago when Travis Montgomery ran away. He was located soon after.

Former Kansas Secretary of Labor Karin Brownlee, R-Olathe, told Associated Press Topeka reporter John Hanna that she was replaced by Gov. Sam Brownback Thursday.
She told the AP that her leaving was not voluntary and that she did not sign a resignation letter.
To read the AP article, click here.
Brownlee abruptly left her office, which was followed by a press release from Gov. Sam Brownback's office saying that Brownlee had "left" the office and announcing State Rep. Lana Gordon, R-Topeka, as the interim Secretary of Labor.
The release had no praise for Brownlee, which normally is standard when high-level people voluntarily leave office. And that has caused rumors to swirl that Brownlee, who Brownback appointed to the job after he was elected governor in 2010, was fired.
Before leaving, Brownlee sent out her own press release announcing that Olathe Mayor and former president of Security Savings Michael Copeland had been appointed deputy secretary of the Kansas Department of Labor, an appointment that Brownback's office later confirmed.
Copeland officially begins his position Oct. 1.
Gordon, who did not seek re-election for a sixth term this year because of redistricting, chaired the House Economic Development and Tourism Committee and House Education Budget Committee. She is a former small business owner and educator.
She will serve in the interim until a permanent secretary is appointed and approved by the Senate.

Volunteer Preparation Toolkit
"Strangers in new cultures see only what they know." –Unknown
Congratulations on your decision to become a volunteer with Gundersen Lutheran Global Partners! It is our hope that this toolkit will help you to have a more fulfilling experience personally and professionally. In order to gain the most from your experience with Global Partners, it is important to have a basic understanding of cultural sensitivity, the culture of your host community, and two core principles of Global Partners, sustainability and relationships. This toolkit was designed based on previous volunteers' feedback for more cultural information prior to departure.
Through four modules, this Volunteer Preparation Toolkit is designed to:
Assist in understanding these values and concepts through personal accounts written by previous volunteers (Coming soon!)
Learning Objectives:
The four modules:
1. Cross-Cultural Understanding
2. Site-Specific Cultural Information
3. Sustainable Development
4. Building Relationships
How to use this toolkit:
This toolkit is designed to systematically complete each module, starting with module one. All of the topics are interrelated, but it is best to start with module one and proceed through module four. At the end of each module, there are links for additional resources if there is a particular subject that is of interest to you. It is best to have reviewed the toolkit prior to any meetings for your experience so that any questions you may have can be answered by one of the leaders. We suggest that you give yourself adequate time to read through the material and follow up with additional resources that interest you. Each module should take approximately 45 minutes to complete.

Al Bano comeback to Spain to present his new disk on life "Canta Italia" where he interprets successful songd like "Será porque te amo", "Volare" or "Señora mía".
His last job is a representative review of a lot of songs that marked one history full of successful songs around the worl wich made "big" the melodic Italian music.
Al Bano try with this project to immortalize mythical songs of grandiose singers like Adriano Celentano, Mina, Sandro Giacobbe, Renato Carosone, Richard Cocciante, Domenico Modugno o Nicola Di Bari. It was not an easy objective but AlBano is a very huge artist.
We can say without any doubt that he has repected the spirit of everyone of these 20 sounds giving them at the same time his personal and characteristic mark.
"Al Bano Canta Itàlia" is a fascinating album wich will mark a new chapter in the italian music history all over the world.

Lice Facts That'll Have You Scratching Your Headmarinka
Then you better be ready for lice!
Chances are, at some point your child, your precious baby, your pride and joy, will get lice. If he hasn't already.
And chances are even greater that it will not be a pleasant experience.
Last year, my family battled lice for a week, and I still have phantom itching from it.
But since lice is practically a part of growing up, why not make it as educational as possible?
Read on for some fun facts about lice!
Some 6 to 12 million infestation of lice cases occur every year in the United States among children. But who's counting! Suggestion: Start itching now to save time later!
Some Egyptian mummies have lice! See? We're learning history already!
Pets cannot transmit lice, only humans can. Isn't it great that we have more than opposable thumbs to lord over the pets?
A Chinese remedy is to wash hair with vinegar and then to comb it out with a bamboo comb. Also makes for a fine salad dressing.
This is an improvement over the 1200 BC Chinese remedy that involved both mercury and arsenic. Don't try this at home!
Lice move by crawling. They can't hop of fly.
There is a fun coloring book about lice!
Celebrities whose children have had lice: Madonna, Courtney Cox, Al Pacino.
So if your kid gets lice, don't despair! You are in good company. But also, get treated as soon as you can. And please don't come over to my house.
