Purpose: To briefly review the role of calcium in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and to comprehensively review and analyze studies of coronary artery calcium detected by electron-beam computed tomography (CT).
Data Sources: The English-language literature located through MEDLINE and Current Contents.
Study Selection: All studies of electron-beam CT in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with and without known coronary artery disease were selected.
Data Extraction: Significant findings on the association of cardiac risk factors and angiographically evident coronary artery disease with coronary artery calcium detected on electron-beam CT were compared. Prospective data on clinical outcomes in patients with coronary artery calcium were assessed.
Data Synthesis: Coronary artery calcium is common in patients with known coronary artery disease or risk factors for coronary artery disease, and it becomes more common with increasing age. Coronary artery calcium detected by electron-beam CT is a sensitive but not a specific indicator of angiographically evident atherosclerosis; sensitivity is increased and specificity is decreased for angiographically significant disease. Test characteristics can be adjusted to improve specificity at the cost of sensitivity. Very limited data suggest that patients with coronary artery calcium are more likely to have cardiac events.
Conclusions: Electron-beam CT is a promising new tool for the evaluation of coronary artery disease because patients who have coronary artery calcium are likely to have angiographically evident atherosclerosis. However, too few data currently exist to support the broad use of this tool in clinical decision making during the evaluation of patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease.

Compare Car Loan Gold Coast Interest Rates Well Before Choosing
A car loan gold coast is mostly impacted by 2 things: what you want to borrow and the time you wish to have the car finance repaid over. Although these seems standard points to contemplate of before choosing a compare car loan, the process of calculating how much you be supposed to request for along with the installments which you will pay generally is a disheartening task. This is where a online calculator comes in.
A online car loan calculator is an online calculator that will calculate the installments you will pay assume you apply for a certain motor loan amount. The loan calculator has an function control panel, where you key data and it automatically does your car loans calculations.
When deciding to acquire a car loan gold coast it will be important to compare car loans rates, the car finance company gold coastmay allow you to borrow more for a number of items you may want. For example, you may decide the motor insurance, warranties for engine repairs and faults that the motor vehicle may come across, on road costs, while others integrated in the rate. The lending firm will have to approve this car finance proposal. In the event it passes through, don't forget you may still have to borrow the money over the same time as stipulated in the car finance agreement.
Some finance companies and banks charge a higher car loan gold coast rate for used cars compared to new cars. Also, the finance rates change for secured finance and personal unsecured loans. Lenders prefer secured car loans and often offer a lower interest rate and easier approval. If you choose to go for the secured loans due to their lesser rates, you have to have enough funds to give for motor insurance, and that you will also have to offset the loan if you sell your car. It can be more difficult to get a car loan approved when the car is more than 7years old. The common repayment time for the car loan is mostly between five to seven years for nearly all car finance companies.
Compare motor finance loan rates before you opt is likewise dependant upon in which you plan to get your vehicle from. Imported used cars are not liked by most car loan companies, or these people have a very thorough procedure for those applying for financing for such. Such an instance, getting a personal unsecured loan may be the best substitute.
When its time to pick a car loan interest rates, you will be tolerant and do wide research. The bank and the traditional lending firms most likely is not the perfect decision. This is because they regularly come up with their interest rates based on different factors. For case in point, some loan companies may price the loan based on the age of the car, although some may price dependant upon the strength of the application.
If you tend to be not an ace in doing the groundwork or researching on the car finance rates offered by different bank car loans and finance company products, you can employ the skills of a proficient loan broker. A loan broker who is knowledgeable in car loan options and the predominant interest rates within the marketplace may ease your projects and create your finance rate selection much easier. He may be able to put side by side the car finance rates and propose different options which are better for you. Therefore, picking a good car finance broker can even be a influential reason on whether your quest for buying a car will be fruitful or not. Also, they are the men and women that can vouch for you the finest car loan companies or institutions to work with based on their requisites with the contract.
Therefore it is valuable to compare several car finance rates available on the market before accepting one.

In video-games, this term is used to describe two or more players who move together rather then going alone. In first person shooter games these people always travel together in hopes of taking out lone targets. In RPG it is used mostly in pvp and pk when two people attack one person to avoid dying.

The ultime Route220 solution has little to do with engineering
June 28, 2013
Fixing the Route 220 stretch of highway just west of Williamsport, perhaps the most dangerous road in the region, is a goal with unanimous backing....
continued: Idiots STILL use the Wrong Lane to Cross North bound traffic, to head toward Jersey Shore - or proceed across 4 lanes of traffic to continue on Pine Run! - Don't tell me and the other drivers who are at risk, of how inefficient Traffic Lights are!!
1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
IF "The ultime Route220 solution has little to do with engineering", then by all account, it must have more to do with pocket-padding! Let's get real and talk bottom-line; something the Commonwealth of PA. and PennDOT cringe at the thought. What I read, sounds like bureaucratic double-talk. "Little to do with engineering"... and in the same breath, talk about Acceleration and Deceleration lanes, J-lanes and throw in some waffelnuggets! If lowering the speed limit and traffic lights are such a bad idea, then why do they work so well in other outskirts of towns across the country? - Is there anticipation of a Super Wal-Mart or Hilton Plaza in the future? LOOK nimrods... there are Lives to protect, the solution has even LESS to do with the inefficiency of PennDot's "P__poor" track record of efficiency or padding the pocket of some greedy State and Representative! Case in Point: Heading south on 220 attempting to enter Pine Run to Sheets.
1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Still say that until someone of importance according to PennDOT or our elected officials dies along that section of Rt 220 nothing will be done.

I've never been beamed aboard a UFO. Never once was I kidnapped by extraterrestrials.
All my weird and bizarre experiences were inflicted by good old-fashioned Earthlings. Or so they claim.
How strange are we? Take a peek at the calendar of events for this week alone.
I don't mean Mother's Day today. Mothers need to be celebrated. It's only fair after all the hairs we turned gray and all the worry lines we etched across their faces with our weird and bizarre experiences.
I mean the other special days this week. For example, today is also "Twilight Zone" Day.
This is not to be confused with "Star Wars" Day, which was last Sunday, May 4. You know, ''May the Fourth be with you.'' Yeah, I know. Sorry. Puns are chief among weird and bizarre experiences.
'''Twilight Zone' Day is mysterious, weird, surreal and perhaps a little scary,'' according to HolidayInsights.com. ''Every once in a while, you have a day like this. And, today is designed to be that day.''
Tomorrow, Monday, is highlighted by Limerick Day, celebrating the birthday of writer Edward Lear in 1812. He popularized limericks in his ''Book of Nonsense'' in 1846.
Here's Limerick 11 from the book:
''There was an Old Man with a flute,
''A sarpint ran into his boot;
''But he played day and night,
''Till the sarpint took flight,
''And avoided that man with a flute.''
Go ahead, E.T., try to top that. And use a dictionary.
Tuesday is both Leprechaun Day and Frog Jumping Day. You think little men with oversized heads and big eyes driving flying saucers look out of place. Wait until you witness all those folks jumping like frogs down the sidewalk on Tuesday.
It just gets more weird and bizarre from there. Barely will we be done hopping before it's time for Dance Like a Chicken Day on Wednesday.
The folks at HolidayInsights said their research didn't discover how the holiday started, but does note that the famous ''Chicken Dance'' song actually was written by Swiss accordion player Werner Thomas as "Der Ententanz" - ''The Duck Dance.''
Quack, quack.
Thursday finally makes some sense with National Chocolate Chip Day. But then we go right into Friday and bump into National Sea Monkey Day. Go get a kit of the frolicking underwater friends - who don't look a thing like the pictures I saw on the backs of comic books while growing up.
And we end the week on Saturday with Pack Rat Day. The folks at HolidayInsights suggest:
''Don't clean your room, basement, garage or any other area today. ... Don't even empty the trash today. You might have accidentally thrown out something useful.''
This is how we spend our time on Earth. These are activities someone thought normal enough to place on calendars, and neither weird nor bizarre.
So I don't mind never being kidnapped by aliens. With what we call normal, I figure a ride in a UFO would be downright boring.

text: %% Story stuff to come later.'''''Eschatos''''' is a VerticalScrollingShooter developed by Qute Corporation and released on UsefulNotes/{{Xbox 360}} in 2011. It is the SpiritualSuccessor to ''VideoGame/JudgementSilversword''.Like in ''Judgement Silversword'', the game is split into a few dozen areas, with a BossBattle every several areas, and the player pilots a ship with a SpreadShot, a narrow shot, and a shield. New to this game are the presence of multiple gameplay modes:* '''Original''', in which the player has constant shot power and tries to kill waves of enemies as fast as possible without letting any escape to rack up points.* '''Advanced''', which uses the power-up system (the player ship starts with weaker weapons than Original, but eventually gets more firepower than in Original), has more lenient penalties for missing enemies, and introduces purple pyramid point items that spawn whenever bullets are cancelled or blocked.* '''Time Attack''', in which the player tries to complete the game as fast as possible, within the time limit. Time extends when going to a new area. The player has unlimited lives, but dying will take 5 seconds off of the time limit. At the end of the game, the player's remaining time is subtracted from the clear time.Although the game is [[NoExportForYou Japan-only]], it is region-free, so the game can be played on any Xbox 360 regardless of its region code. In 2012, Qute released the arrange soundtrack for use with the game, in the form of DLC. A spiritual successor, ''Ginga Force'', was released in February 14th, 2013, followed by a CompilationRerelease four months later bundled with ''Eschatos'' and the games' soundtrack. A PC version of ''Eschatos'' was released through Steam on September 18, 2015 along with a port of ''Judgement Silversword'', and the arranged soundtrack DLC was released on Steam as well on November 13, 2015.----!!Eschatos contains examples of:* OneUp: Like in ''Judgement Silversword'', these tend to come at a mildly generous pace.** In Time Attack, 1-ups will restore your time limit by 15 seconds.* BulletHell: ''Eschatos'', as well as its spiritual predecessors and successor, will unleash a hailstorm of red bullets all over the screen.* CompilationRerelease: The ''Ginga Force & Eschatos Wonder Pack'', bundling ''Eschatos'' and ''Ginga Force'' along a soundtrack with music from both games.* DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist: In Time Attack, you get unlimited lives, and dying subtracts 5 seconds plus whatever time is lost waiting to respawn.* DroughtLevelOfDoom: The game is usually fairly generous with 1-ups, but Stage 3 (Areas 12-15) has no 1-ups at all.* EmbeddedPrecursor: The game includes enhanced color versions of ''Judgement Silversword'' and ''Cardinal Sins'' in the game.* EndlessGame: Original and Advanced have the "Endless" difficulty, which starts off at the equivalent of Easy and progresses up the difficulty tiers each time you finish one playthrough.* HardModePerks: Your maximum score multiplier increases with higher difficulties. The max multiplier is x10 on Easy, x20 on Normal, x50 on Hard, and on Hardest there is no maximum multiplier.* HarderThanHard: Hardest difficulty, which is so hard that on the Xbox Live leaderboards, only one player in Original Mode and one player in Advanced have cleared it.** However, M-KAI has stated in an interview that the game is designed with Hard mode as the "main" difficulty in mind, arguably subverting this trope.* PowerUp: In Advanced Mode. Obviously, it makes your shots stronger; in addition to that it raises your multiplier. However, your shield capacity decreases as you gain more powerups.* {{Retraux}}: The soundtrack is done in FM synth by Yousuke Yasui, a game music composer well-known for making retro-style game music. The graphics also give off a very Sega NAOMI look and feel to it* ScoringPoints: Like in ''Judgement Silversword'', the points you collect at the end of each run (except in Time Attack mode) are used to increase your "Option Level" and unlock new features. Anyone can unlock all of the bonus features with enough time and dedication, but skilled players will unlock the bonuses faster.* SmartBomb: The "F" powerups, which wipe all bullets from the screen and do slight damage to all on-screen enemies.** However, collecting it in Advanced will decrease shot power and multiplier, so be careful picking it up. So if you're playing for score, these basically become extra bullets!* SpiritualSuccessor: ''Eschatos'' is one to ''Judgement Silversword'' and ''Cardinal Sins'', while the former gained one with ''Ginga Force''. It's save file for the PC has the abbreviation of "jss3", likely referring to ''Eschatos'' as "''Judgement Silversword 3''".* SpreadShot: {{Nerf}}ed since ''Judgement Silversword''. Except at lowest firepower in Advanced, the spread shot does not have any directly-forward coverage.* TimedMission: Time Attack mode. Clearing areas and getting a OneUp will extend the time limit, finishing a sub-area will freeze it, getting killed takes off 5 seconds, and there are no continues.* UnstableEquilibrium: Dying not only reduces your multiplier by one, but it also allows enemies to escape in the time that you spend respawning. Enemies that escape during the respawn delay do count towards the multiplier penalty. On Original mode, dying during a large wave of enemies means your entire multiplier will most likely disappear, thereby destroying an entire stage of efforts.* WeirdMoon: The moon appears to have been corrupted by the alien forces. [[spoiler:You restore it when you defeat the FinalBoss.]]----

HILLSBOROUGH— Seventy five Hillsborough Girl Scouts are about to experience the thrilling world of circus arts when Circus Place, New Jersey's first circus arts training facility, visits them at the Hillsborough Middle School on Friday, Feb. 3. The traveling circus workshop will take place from 7 -9 p.m. The Junior Troop, made up for 4th and 5th grade girls will enhance their balance, coordination and fitness as they learn to walk on a tight rope, juggle, spin plates, and for the first time, soar to new heights on the portable aerial equipment.
This outreach program is one of the many that Circus Place runs outside its primary location. "To accommodate this large of a group, we need to find an outside venue," says Sharyn Brandman, Director/Co-Owner of Circus Place. "We basically pack up our trucks with all our exciting equipment and become a traveling circus." "Circus Place is able to introduce the benefits of youth circus to a wider audience by bringing our school directly to them," adds Craig Quat, Director/Co-Director. Circus Place takes their workshops to schools, recreation centers, YMCA facilities, street fairs and private events. In addition, Circus Place also proudly offers adaptive circus outreach programming for the special needs community.
The traveling outreach program always begins with a high-energy interactive show that highlights circus artists from New Jersey and Philadelphia. Jugglers, unicyclists, hula hoopers entertain and introduce the skills the audience is about to learn. The performers then become the instructors as the audience becomes the participants, trying out juggling, tight wire, plate spinning, hooping and balance. Circus Place hopes to generate interests that will lead students to further their skills at classes at their school in Hillsborough.

Assignment Palermoby Edward S. Aarons
A huge criminal network is insidiously turning into an apparatus for international espionage. CIA Agent Sam Dureil had only one slender (but lovely) lead: A racketeer's willful mistress.
Assignment, Quayle Questionby Edward S. Aarons
It started with a trap for an assassin. An international assassin. Right here in the good old U.S. of A. Only this time it was worse than it had ever been for Sam. Because this time the lovely Deirdre, the only woman Sam Durell had ever really loved, was on the mission with him. But catching the assassin was only the key to something much bigger--an international conspiracy involving billions of dollars and the control of millions of minds. At stake was a network of power that could change history. Sam knew who was masterminding this incredible plot--one of the most cunning and dangerous criminals in the world: Dr. Sinn. Sam had to find him--and kill him. If he could only stay alive long enough.

Welcome! ^^ How far are you in Zelda?
Mmmmhmmmm. Just got my Wii 3 days ago. I've been playing Zelda for a few weeks, but that's because my bf got it for GC for his roommates while I was on vacation. Haha.
Anywho, I'm Susie and I'm 20 years old. I'm a computer science major at a not-so-great school; if you're a close-minded, arrogant prick, you may ask which one and then call me stupid when I tell you. If you're at least a decent human being (or alien, or whatever), you won't judge my intelligence based on which school I go to. I currently live in the north bay area of California, but I was born in LA county. I love sushi more than anyone else in the world (I GUARANTEE IT!) I play 4 instruments: violin, viola, guitar, and piano. I want to work for a company like Pixar or EA and in the meantime create a website which will make me lots and lots of money so I never have to work outside my house again and I can go to places like Japan and Hawaii whenever the effing hell I want to. =)
Nice to meet you!

People would have you believe, New York Yankees fans included, that the team is on a road to certain failure and that everything is going wrong.
While they might be right about everything going wrong so far in 2012, to say they are in trouble is downright insane.
For a team that hasn't hit its stride yet, I'd say the Bombers aren't in that bad of a position despite how poorly they've played.
Here's why the Yankees simply aren't in as much trouble as some experts would have you believe.

Featured Golf News
Nicklaus to Design New Course in Prosper, Texas
A new North Texas golf development will feature a golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus. BearsBrook Golf Club will boast one of the Golden Bear's Signature layouts in Prosper, located less than 30 miles north of Dallas. The site features 120 feet of elevation changes, thousands of hardwood trees, and meandering streams.
The course will occupy 225 acres of the 1,400-acre project, which is being overseen by LandPlan Development of Dallas. "This is a beautiful piece of property," Nicklaus said. "Two of the most striking features are the great trees on the site, and streams that run through the middle of the property. The owners are passionate about the game of golf, and they desire to have a core golf course, which means a course that is dictated by the features of the land and not a course that is dictated by a residential development.
"The developers intend to use the best features of the property, accentuate them, and provide to members the best golf experience they possibly can. BearsBrook has great potential. It is going to be a very special project and we are delighted to be a part of it."
The course will be part of the Jack Nicklaus Golf Club, a reciprocity program involving 25 Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses in locations around the world. The program is limited to the 35 founders or associate members at each club, who have access to each of the courses in it. The clubs are situated in New Zealand; Royal Island (Bahamas); St. Lucia and Anguilla in the Eastern Caribbean; the Patagonia region of Argentina; Mount Holly, a private ski destination in Utah; Cap Cana in the Dominican Republic; Vancouver Island in Canada; Tuscany; Scotland; South Africa; as well as Nicklaus's home courses: The Bear's Club in Jupiter, Fla., and Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio.
BearsBrook will be a standalone course, with no street crossings or tunnels involved in the layout. Residences will be set back 250 feet from the golf corridors.
"The golf club will be located on approximately 225 of the 1,400 acres assembled by LandPlan and its investors, and it will be the most ideal portion of the land to dedicate to the finest golf experience Jack Nicklaus can create," said LandPlan executive vice president Scott Erwin. "The golf course land is without question the crown jewel of our Prosper land. It is very valuable and highly developable because only a small portion is located in the flood plain. If it was developed as gated residential lots without golf, our most valuable lots would be located in this heavily wooded area with creek views. So to dedicate this land to golf is a commitment from LandPlan that should resonate with future members."
Erwin anticipates construction to begin in summer 2009, with a fall 2010 opening of the golf course and clubhouse.
For more details about the BearsBrook development, contact Erwin at 214/618-3802 or via email at Serwin.
Nicklaus Design has 334 courses open for play in 32 countries and 39 states. Of those 334, Jack Nicklaus has been personally involved in the design of 266 courses. At least 60 of the firm's courses have been ranked in various national or international Top-100 lists and 87 facilities have hosted a combined total of over 600 professional tournaments or significant national amateur championships worldwide. Nicklaus Design currently has more than 55 courses under construction and projects under development in 45 different countries. For more information, visit Nicklaus.

Created for NCSL's Trust for Representative Democracy, this upbeat 13-minute video blends live action and character animation for elementary and secondary school students. The video is used as a springboard to engage students in civics education, and is part of the Trust's "America's Legislators Back to School" program which promotes state-level legislators visiting classrooms and discussing representative democracy.
Milkhaus worked with the Trust to create a week-long civics based lesson plan for students at The Challenge Foundation, a school located in Denver, CO. A handful of students from the school volunteered to travel with the film crew to Colorado's State Capital building, and interview state legislators from both sides of the aisle. These students were also the voices to our animated superhero characters! In this exciting twist, we recorded a roundtable improv session where the students were charged with creating who they would be as a superhero. While in character, we asked the students about their roles as citizens and their voice in government. The idea was to show kids that you don't have to have super-powers to make a difference in this world. From there, we created character designs based on the student's descriptions, and animated the edited conversation.

How To Find Products To Sell For Your Online Operation
If you want to know how to succeed at something, it's a good idea to talk to someone who already has. Renowned eBay powerseller Skip McGrath offers some helpful insights on how you can find product sources for your online business. Once you've determined what you're selling, where do you go to get the goods?
Sourcing with a pro
According to McGrath, one of the best sources for products is local distributors because they're easy to find. Go to Liquidation.com and you can search by type. Just enter the word "wholesale" and your ZIP code and you'll get a list of manufacturers and wholesalers within 100 miles of that ZIP code. And under the company name, you'll see the kind of products it carries.
For traditional wholesale suppliers, like gift and merchandise manufacturers and overstock distributors, McGrath recommends several online sources:
- Liquidxs.com helps you find surplus branded merchandise and collectibles.
- Liquidation.com sells goods by the pallet-load.
- Google searches — type in the product name and the word "distributor" or "wholesale." You'll probably have to drill down to the third, fourth, or even fifth page to find real wholesalers; the first few pages are usually jammed with middlemen claiming to have wholesale prices.
Research the companies before you use them to make sure they are genuine wholesalers and not retailers.
"The rule in wholesaling is, the closer you can get to the manufacturer of a product, the better your price is going to be," McGrath notes.
Alternative sources
Nearly every medium and large city in the U.S. has a merchandise mart or gift mart. They're like indoor malls where product manufacturers have their showrooms. You can see the products and pricing, and place orders. Once you've registered at a mart in person, some even have online sites where you can shop the market.
These marts aren't open to the public, and neither are the trade shows that come to your area. So to get in, you'll need the following:
- A sales tax number or a resale certificate.
- A business card or letterhead that shows you're a company.
- A commercial checking account — they may want to see a check in the business name.
- The good news is, once you're registered with these marts, you'll likely get an invitation and tickets in the mail when trade shows come to your area, which saves you the trouble of registering for each one.
Close to Home
A rather surprising source of resale merchandise is eBay itself, McGrath confides.
"On eBay and all the other online auction sites out there, you can often find tremendous bargains." Sometimes other sellers don't recognize the value of their goods, or they don't photograph them well or write a good title or description.
If you know your product market and take the time to present it well, you can turn over some amazing deals in your own backyard.

Hello my fellow e-sellers. You do not need a search engine, nor do you need to call the BBB or any such 3 step act. the best source for reputable wholesalers (at least in my field) http://www.priceshoppe.com is the VAR businesss magazine .
Frank Dappah
Director of E-commerce Priceshoppe.com
— *Frank Dappah*
Hi, All;
Karen, you make a very good point. In fact, on our website at WorldwideBrands.com, we do take great care to tell people that the first few pages of any search engine when you search for "wholesale," "Drop Ship" and other product sourcing terms are the absolute favorite hangout of the scam artist. Probably eight out of every 10 results you see there lead to middlemen, MLMs and other scammers.
This article was distilled from a radio interview. We had Skip McGrath on our Entrepreneur Magazine Product Sourcing Radio Show a while back, and much of what you see in this article comes from his comments in that interview.
As others have pointed out, Skip did say that you must drill down past the first few pages to get past the scammers. However, you pointed out that Skip talks about verifying the wholesalers you find before using them, but didn't say how. I'm willing to bet that during the course of that radio interview, we DID say how, but that info didn't make it into this article (probably due to space constraints for the articles we distill from the shows) which I do apologize for.
So, here are some things you can do to verify that a wholesaler is legit:
1. Call them. If there's no phone number listed on the site, they're probably a fake. If they answer and just say "hello," they're probably a fake. If you get a person or phone system that uses the company name, that's a point in favor of legitimacy.
2. If they do NOT require a Tax ID from you, or documentation of your legal business name, run fast and far in the other direction. Any legitimate wholesaler needs some form of Tax ID and Business Name info from you.
3. Call the chamber of comerce in their town and ask about them. Many times, the chamber will be able to give you info about the business.
4. Check the BBB national site at BBB.org. The BBB has many reports about companies who are not BBB members.
5. Google the company name. If someone has had trouble with them, you'll know it instantly.
6. Go to the "About Us" page, and look for personal names of the principles, and Google them, too. Same reason.
7. Go to WhoIs.net and do a WhoIs search on the domain name. That will show you, in many cases, who actually owns the domain. If the domain is registered to a single person, that can mean a scammer. If it's registered to the same business name, that's another point toward legitimacy.
Hope that helps, and thanks for pointing out that omission!

Let's not go crazy, the story cautions people to "drill down" to find more reputable wholesalers. However, that said, going the search engine route is a risk.
— *Alex*
I think that this is a point that can be made about almost every article in Practical eCommerce magazine. Many articles have great suggestions that you need to do this or that but fail to answer the how question. (Recommending people to Google "wholesale" is irresponsible advice at best due to all of the scams out there. Recommending people research the companies is all well and good — but he makes no mention of how to do so.)
— *Joel*
"Recommending people to Google "wholesale" is irresponsible. The amount of money lost by people looking to get rich quick on eBay or by creating an ecommerce store could probably pay for the war in Iraq."
Well said!!!

Recommending people to Google "wholesale" is irresponsible advice at best due to all of the scams out there. Recommending people research the companies is all well and good – but he makes no mention of how to do so. The amount of money lost by people looking to get rich quick on eBay or by creating an ecommerce store could probably pay for the war in Iraq.
Also, if a legit "wholesaler" is easily found on the web chances are there are already thousands of eBayers/store owners who already know about them.
— *Karen*
Greetings Joel:
If you're interested in one of the "how to" articles on product sourcing, you can do a search at the site. Or, one of the stories is located here:
Sourcing Options for eCommerce Firms

The prices on Priceshoppe.com are way overpriced . I saw the same items on other sites for almost half the price .
— *Hey Frank Dappah*
Priceshoppe.com DOES NOT have wholesale prices–PERIOD.
— *frank dappah*
I've heard that theres is a software that brings up all the majority of wholesalers names. All that you need to do is type the category that you are looking for, for example "cell phone" and it will pop up most of the hidden suppliers. Is such a thing true of existence?
— *Has*
There is a website that does that – it's a search engine rather than software called goWholesale.com
— *Kari*
This article is a complete and total sham… Note as quoted in this "so called" interview:
* Liquidxs.com helps you find surplus branded merchandise and collectibles.
* Liquidation.com sells goods by the pallet-load.
* Google searches — type in the product name and the word "distributor" or "wholesale."
Point: This supposed article is an obvious plug for Liquidation.com since the other site mentioned (Liquidxs.com) forwards to Liquidation.com. Also, anyone one with a single brain cell (functioning or not) will try searching Google on their own without someone suggesting such a bright idea to them – DUH, AND THANKS FOR SUGGESTING WE SEARCH GOOGLE… As for Liquidation.com, after spending a "couple of hours" digging though it, I'm under the impression the the site itself and its offerings are pretty bogus. If your looking for GENUINE deals on items to resell, you're better off looking on eBay's Wholesale Lots, which you can find at http://reseller.ebay.com/ns/wholesalelots.html
As most of you already know, a lot of companies use eBay to move excess inventory for pennies on the dollar. Trust me on this one, forget about the advice in this article and concentrate your efforts where real deals are available for you to make a profit. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY SELLING!
Now get out there and make some money!!
— *Bubba*
O.K. lets talk about what we can lern from each other rather than where the other person might be wrong.
I am a manufacturer and a wholeseller and honestly speaking I have much difficulty in getting resellers as much you guys have finding a wholeseller.
I am a clothing manufacturer http://www.peachcouture.com of plus size womens clothing and accesories and to run a wholesale campaign on Google or Yahoo costs close to $8000-$10000 a month(all the keywords). Organic search results is out of question as I am not a webmaster (to get my site on page 1 og google search) and not such a big wholeseller that I would employ webmaster(if I was as big I would have started supplying to walmart). These are simple business basics…The amount of money I make on Each Order value (wholesale) doesnt not supprot me to advertise online. So any one claiming to be a wholeseller through online ads is most probably…….. or a newbie(like i did in starting-not anymore) bottom line is if you are looking for success be part of successful network. I would also suggest to get up from your comfy seat and travel to places, you will not only source products but also learn a lot, and ofcourse it is better option than keep giving thousands…
Good Luck in 2008 to all

Becareful of some sellers selling fake stuff at Liquidation.com
This one seller: Wholesalemakeup selling fake Mac products. Already reported them to Liquidation.com, and guess what, the very next day they don't use the "Mac" word any longer on the title, and they edited out the "Mac" word in their pictures. AND Wholesalemakeup is still selling fake Mac products at Liquidation.com.

Review chairman: Clinton didn't make Benghazi call
WASHINGTON -- The seasoned diplomat who penned a highly critical report on security at a U.S. outpost in Benghazi, Libya, defended his scathing assessment but absolved then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. "We knew where the responsibility rested," Thomas Pickering said Sunday.
"They've tried to point a finger at people more senior than where we found the decisions were made," Pickering, whose career spans four decades, said of Clinton's critics.
The Accountability Review Board, which Pickering headed with retired Adm. Mike Mullen, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, did not question Clinton at length about the attacks but concluded last December that the decisions about the consulate were made well below the secretary's level.
Pickering and Mullen's blistering report found that "systematic failures and leadership and management deficiencies at senior levels" of the State Department meant that security was "inadequate for Benghazi and grossly inadequate to deal with the attack that took place."
Pickering's defense of his panel's conclusions, however, failed to placate Republicans who have called for creation of a special select congressional committee to investigate the Sept. 11, 2012, assault on the U.S. diplomatic mission that killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens.
The top Republican on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee said he wants sworn depositions from Pickering and Mullen, and promised to make that request today.
"This is a failure, it needs to be investigated. Our committee can investigate. Now, Ambassador Pickering, his people and he refused to come before our committee," said Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., the panel's chairman.
Pickering, sitting next to Issa during an appearance on one Sunday show, said the chairman was lying and that he was willing to testify before the committee.
In a separate interview, Pickering said he asked, via the White House, to appear at Wednesday's session. He said he could have answered many of the questions lawmakers raised, such as whether U.S. military forces could have saved Americans had they dispatched F-16 jet fighters to the consulate, some 1,600 miles away from the nearest likely launching point.
"Mike Mullen, who was part of this report and indeed worked very closely with all of us and shared many of the responsibilities directly with me, made it very clear that his view as a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff that there were nothing within range that could have made a difference," Pickering said.
Republicans and Gregory Hicks, the former deputy chief of mission in Libya, have questioned why the military couldn't move faster to stop the two nighttime attacks over several hours. Hicks, who testified before the House Oversight panel this past week, said a show of U.S. military force might have prevented the second attack on the CIA annex that killed security officers Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty.
Mullen's successor as Joint Chiefs chairman, Gen. Martin Dempsey, and former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta told a Senate panel on Feb. 7 that they didn't have enough intelligence about what was happening, did not know where the ambassador was and F-16s would have been the wrong aircraft.
"You can't just willy-nilly send F-16s there and blow the hell out of a place without knowing what's taking place," Panetta had told the Senate Armed Services Committee on Feb. 7.
At the hearing last Wednesday, Hicks and two other State Department witnesses criticized Pickering and Mullen's review. Their complaints centered on a report they consider incomplete, with individuals who weren't interviewed and a focus on the assistant secretary level and lower.
"I was surprised today that they did not probe Secretary Clinton in detail," Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., said, of the review board.
The hourslong hearing produced no major revelation but renewed interest in the attacks that happened during the lead-up to the November 2012 presidential election.
Even so, Republicans showed little interest in dropping their investigation into what happened at the consulate, what might be done to prevent future such attacks and what political calculations went into rewriting talking points the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, used on news shows.
A series of emails that circulated between the State Department and the CIA led to weakened -- and, in some cases, erroneous -- language that Rice used to describe the assault during a series of five television interviews the Sunday after the attacks.
"I'd call it a cover-up," said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.,who renewed his call for a select committee to investigate. "I would call it a cover-up in the extent that there was willful removal of information, which was obvious."
Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Mich., chairman of the House Intelligence committee, said he expects more State Department officials to step forward and testify.
One Republican eyeing a White House run, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, told an audience in Iowa that he thinks the Benghazi attack "precludes Hillary Clinton from ever holding office."
Democrats said Republicans were looking to weaken her ahead of a potential 2016 campaign.
"This has been caught up in the 2016 presidential campaign, this effort to go after Hillary Clinton," said Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill. "They want to bring her in because they think it's a good political show and I think that's unfortunate."
Rep. Adam Smith of Washington state, the top Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, said the congressional probe "has just become a very, very partisan-focused, scandal-focused attack by the Republicans investigating this."

Few visitors venture here despite the fine old buildings and temples in the Ishibiya-chō Furusato Mura ("Hometown Village") area, a name evoking images of a long-lost Japan. Except for the steep hike up to the castle – Japan's highest – all of Takahashi's sights are within easy walking distance of Bitchū Takahashi Station and can be covered in half a day.

It's been a week since the Humble Bundle for Android 4 was released. Let's check back and see what's happening over there. Yes, things look quite good. Over 125,000 bundles have been purchased, with over $779,000 raised so far. I'd say it's doing quite well. Oh, wait, look! Something new has been added! People who pay more than the average the the Humble Bundle for Android 4 and the Humble Bundle for Android 2!
This shouldn't surprise anyone. The Humble Bundles are always updated with more content after they've hit the one week point and it isn't unusual for an older bundle to be added to a new bundle as a bonus. This just means people who pay less than the average get Android, Windows, Mac and Linux copies of Crayon Physics Deluxe, Eufloria, Splice, Superbrothers Sword and Sworcery and Waking Mars. People who pay more than the current average, which was $6.20 at 1:20pm CST on November 15, get those five games and Avadon: The Black Fortress, Canabalt, Cogs, Machinarium, Swords and Soldiers HD and Zenbound for Android, Windows, Mac and Linux.
There's only one week left for people to grab the Humble Bundle for Android 4. After November 22, 2012, it's gone. Since you can grab tons of great games for a ridiculous price right now, I recommend just going and getting a bundle. If you hesistate, you'll miss out!
In this bundle I'd now have to say Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery, Eufloria, Waking Mars, Canabalt and Zenbound 2 are my favorites. Pay the $6.20 you need to get the full bundle. I promise those five games will make the investment with it.

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) issued full guidance to the NHS in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland on intralesional photocoagulation of subcutaneous congenital vascular disorders in September 2004. In accordance with the Interventional Procedures Programme Process Guide, guidance on procedures with special arrangements are reviewed 3 years after publication and the procedure is reassessed if important new evidence is available.
The guidance was considered for reassessment in March 2008 and it was concluded that NICE will not be updating this guidance at this stage. However, if you believe there is new evidence which should warrant a review of our guidance, please contact us via the email address below.
Intralesional photocoagulation is a laser treatment for people with congenital abnormalities of the blood vessels of the skin (including haemangiomas, port wine stains and arteriovenous malformations). Often these abnormalities require no treatment, as they may spontaneously resolve or cause only mild cosmetic problems. Laser treatment is often recommended for lesions near the eyes or orifices, or if the lesions bleed, ulcerate or become infected.
External laser treatment of vascular abnormalities may not be effective, because the laser beam does not penetrate far beneath the skin. Intralesional photocoagulation involves inserting a laser fibre into the lesion to deliver the light deep within it.
Coding recommendations
S09.1 Laser destruction of lesion of skin of head or neck
S09.2 Laser destruction of lesion of skin NEC
In addition an ICD-10 code would be included to reflect the appropriate diagnosis, for example: Q27.3 Peripheral arteriovenous malformation.

Only Ben Bernanke can print money. The rest of us have to earn it.
Yesterday we praised Jerry Reese for being tight on the bidding for Ahmad Bradshaw, that you had to be willing to let him go if he would not accept the Giants' price. Obviously the Bengals and Redskins were either not serious enough to pony up the big bucks. Mike Garafolo: "In the end, the Giants got their man back — and at a very good price." There has to be enough money to go around for everyone in order to SIGN everyone. When you get a player like this at the right price, when you let Burress go in 2011, you can afford to go after one of those OLinemen the Giants cut last week at a reduced rate. You can afford Steve Smith, whether or not he is physically ready.
The other piece of big news yesterday is that the Giants gave their blessing for Osi to negotiate a deal with another team. What does that tell you? It tells us that The Giants are going to get a #1 draft pick for him if they trade him over. Cofield was offered a #2 by the Saints last year (if he could agree to a contract), and I would be furious if the Giants get anything less than a #1. Osi led the team in (11.5) sacks last season. We better be getting a #1 pick if we lose him. Pete (and the linked media report) thinks I am incorrect, that the Giants will not get a #1, and that will be one of the reasons why it is wrong to be letting him go.
How about a different route, trading a player for Osi? The Chargers need a pass-rushing DE, they could trade to the Giants Pro Bowl LBer Shaun Phillips. Oh wait, this is the same Giants team that abhors LBers, so pardon me while I wake up from my foolish dream.
Separately, after being gone this weekend and posting yesterday, I forgot to note the signings of P Weatherford and QB Carr. Good moves.
Nobody asked us, but doesn't it seem odd that the Giants cut Andrews, Seubert and O'Hara and yet there they were at 19 and they went past Castonzo?!! And they are moving Diehl over to Guard?!! We're glad the Gmen believe in Beatty. As a rookie, he looked the part, but as a second year player we were not convinced. Still, w McKenzie long in the tooth, it is a little puzzling. Hey, we were just as puzzled when Reese cut Petitgout, and look how that worked out. So we do not claim to have the final answer here. Time will be the only one to tell. We just ask aloud why this franchise has not given the proper resources to this unit (second only to LBer) while the aging was VERY predictable.

A few weeks ago we asked about your connections to Gettysburg.
We asked you to share stories of your relatives or descendants who fought in the great battle or stories that connected you to the town itself while the battle was taking place.
We had several submissions. Here's what we've published so far:
- Gettysburg 150 connections: 50 Confederate soldiers were buried in the yard
- A near Gettysburg connection: Grandpa Lynch
- Gettysburg 150 connections: My Uncle Jacob Stroble and 'Sally' the pitt bull mascot
Today, siblings George and Aimee Achorn talk about their great grandfather Jacob Achorn who fought in Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville and Gettysburg and lived to tell about it.
By George Achorn, Hershey, and his sister Aimee Achorn, Lancaster
Regarding ties to the Battle of Gettysburg, I had a relative who fought there. While I
was born in Elizabethtown and grew up there and in Hershey where I now reside, my great grandfather Jacob Achorn was born in Maine. My dad's family has always been a bit older when they've had their children and my grandfather was born in 1899, my dad in 1933 and me in 1971. Jacob enlisted as many did during the war and was part of the 16th Maine regiment in Gettysburg.
My dad's cousin (now deceased) who did a lot of this research said he was taken prisoner in Gettysburg, and marched south and along the way they ran into some Union troops bringing southern prisoners north. Apparently the two armies traded prisoners and he was freed to rejoin the Union Army. According to her research, he returned to Washington and was assigned to guard duty with the Army of the Potomac. He was later stationed in the Navy in Wilmington, N.C., where he met his wife Carrie Ames. They ended up living in Baltimore after the war where my grandfather was born. He's the one who moved the family to Lancaster.
In the 1990s I ended up attending Gettysburg College. As a project, my fraternity would go take care of the more storied 20th Maine monument area though I always wondered where the 16th Maine had been. Then, one day while mountain biking through the park, I stumbled across it. While smaller and less known, it still meant a lot to me that I'd found it.
Aimee adds to the story: Jacob Booth Achorn was born on March 11, 1837, in Union, Maine. He enlisted on June 9, 1862, in the Union Army in Rockland, Maine, and became part of the Army of the Potomac, Company A, 16th Regiment Maine Infantry. He was mustered into service as a Private on August 14, 1862 in Augusta, Maine. He fought at Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. He also served as a guard at Corps Headquarters. He was honorably discharged on April 21, 1864 by reason of transfer to the United States Navy, where he enlisted as a seaman on May 4, 1864, in Brooklyn. He was honorably discharged from the Navy on October 20, 1864, aboard U.S. receiving ship Princeton at Philadelphia. While in the Navy, he served on the USS New Hampshire and the USS John Adams.
He married his first wife, Adelaide, on November 4, 1864, in Union, Maine, and they had one daughter, born in 1867, who died of an illness at the age of 9. They were divorced in 1874. He later married Caroline Ames on December 12, 1888, in Wilmington, North Carolina. Caroline was much younger, born on October 14, 1864 (a week before Jacob was honorably discharged from the Navy, to put it in context). They moved north to Baltimore, and had four sons and one daughter. Jacob died on May 20, 1901, when our grandfather, George Sylvester Achorn, was about 1.5 years old. After his death, Caroline and the children moved to Lancaster, Pa.
George (my brother), our father and our grandfather are all named George Sylvester, after Jacob's two brothers
