Where will people buy Winchester White Box ammo after Wal-Mart eventually stops selling guns and ammo? I've never seen it anywhere else.

Sportsman's Warehouse in Aurora had a good supply of it 2 weeks ago. I assume it's a standard item.
Edit: The new Bass Pro Shops has it also, but SW is cheaper.

It's a standard item. Bought some at a local gun store and at a gun show just a week ago.
I sure hope they do not stop making it. Who knows with the Winchester thing going on. I would imagine that they would keep the ammo business as I am sure it is doing alright.
April 14, 2006, 04:44 PM
The Winchester ammo business is totally unrelated to the closing of the factory in New Haven. The New Haven factory has not been "Winchester" for probably 20 or 25 years, maybe longer. It was the US Repeating Arms Corp, which in recent years has been owned by FN Herstal. They licensed the Winchester brand name from Olin Corp., which owns the brand.
The ammo business is in Utah, I believe, and is either owned by Olin or farmed out to another licensee unrelated to Herstal and USRAC.

Most of my handgun ammo is WWB. But if Walmart stops selling ammo then I will go to Sportsman's Warehouse, gunshows, and online.
However, I would be shocked if Wal-mart stopped selling ammo in the Phx area. They do a pretty good business in these parts.
I hear all these horror stories from people when they buy large quanities of ammo from Wal-mart (as in more than one box). No one blinks an eye around here. As a matter of fact, the last time I bought 45 acp, I asked for 4 boxes. The guy behind the counter asked why I was not going to buy an even 500. I said "good point, grab one more".
April 14, 2006, 04:53 PM
Well, my question was prompted because I have only seen the white box in Wal-Mart. I browse around Sportsman's Warehouse but I seldom browse the ammo isle. Imust have just missed it there.
is the SW price the same as the Wal-Mart price on whitebox?

Same here, the biggest problem I have is finding it in stock because it sells so quickly.
You can find it online but the price is higher plus you have to pay the shipping charges.
April 14, 2006, 05:19 PM
No one has said Meijer yet. Just like WalMart, you have to wait around for some mutant employee to open the case for you, and it takes them forever to find what you want, but the price is worth it.

In the Aurora SW, you wont find it in the ammo aisle. But at the ends of the aisles, close to the gun counter, there are stacks of WWB, Blazer, Wolf, and another brand in 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45acp. If I remember correctly, WWB was about $11 for 50 in 45 acp. 45 was the only one I looked at. Further disclaimer - my memory is often untrustworthy on things like prices.
April 14, 2006, 05:31 PM
Bi-Mart used to carry it. It disappeared off of the shelves, leaving a vacant space that they haven't filled with anything else. When I ask what happened they simply reply that the company went out of business and walk away...:banghead:

What lead you to believe Wal-Mart was going to stop selling firearms and ammo? I can't get a handgun through them in PA, but in a few states as recent as 5 years ago one could.
Did WallyWorld annouce something I missed? I'd like to know.
I just stopped into Wal-Mart on Wednesday to order 124 gr WWB 9mm. 115 gr 9mm is a standard 100 rd bulk pack White Box item for them, but they can order most anything Winchester produces. I prefer 124 gr myself, as it knocks down steel better. Spoke to the manager of the sporting goods counter, she looked it up and *scan*, *scan*, *key entry* . . . OK. "Its a standard warehouse item, I can have it here in a few days. How much would you like?"
"One case please . . . I need 1000 rounds for a training event."
She never batted an eye, gave her my card and asked her to call when it arrived. Great deal . . . I don't have to pay a separate shipping fee, worry about it coming to the house when I'm not home and walking away, or any crap about adult signature required . . . blah, blah, blah.
I'm not a huge Wal-Mart shopper. But they sell the crap out of WWB around here, especially 9mm. She said they get 2-3 cases in every other day, and it moves. I'll use them for ordering ammo.
April 14, 2006, 11:55 PM
What lead you to believe Wal-Mart was going to stop selling firearms and ammo?
Ummmm ... the fact that several threads here and on other forums confirm what we have all been seeing -- none of the stores have firearms any more, and store personnel all attribute it to a "management decision."
April 15, 2006, 12:51 AM
Well, here's an article I just read about it today:
According to this, Wal-Mart will stop selling firearms in stores where there is little demand for them.
About the Winchester white-box ammo, I was just in the Aurora, CO Sportsman's Warehouse today and saw plenty of it there. I bought a 250-round box of Remington UMC 9mm 115 Gr. Metal Case ammo for $31.50, which was the best price for any of the brands in stock.
April 15, 2006, 08:49 AM
Heck, now I shop at Academy for ammo - they are cheaper than Wal-mart.
April 15, 2006, 09:37 AM
Wal-Mart is not a great place to buy ammo as they don't stock it very deep. Twelve boxes (600 rounds) was the most I've ever found in stock of the USA Whitebox 9mm. $4.63/50 was a nice price, but I'm shooting at least 2000 rounds of 9mm a month lately, and trying to get it at Wal-Mart wastes way too much time trying to stay supplied. If I had enough hours of free time to run-around to Wal-Marts to find ammo, I'd be able to reload enough .45 insteasd and not be shooting 9mm at all.
I doubt they will stop selling it where it sells well. I can understand why guns don't sell well at the Wal-Marts closer to upscale areas. If you've ever bought or observed them sell a gun the transaction takes forever compared to gun show or normal gun store. Other than the "Wal-Mart only" Ruger 10/22 configurations I can't see myself wasting that much time for the meager savings I'd achive compared to at a gun show. Besides I enjoy walking around gun shows, and despize walking around Wal-Mart where there is acres of crap I don't want or need to find the few items I'd be intrested in.
Fortunately I'd stocked up while Academy still had the aluminum Blazer 9mm for $3.86/50 and should be OK for the next three months.
April 15, 2006, 09:38 AM
Heard about 10 minutes ago on channel 6, Knoxville, TN news this Saturday morning. The announcer stated that Wal Mart has not released the names or locations of stores that will stop selling firearms.
Word of caution - this same announcer was telling the story of a fireman who attempted to rescue a missing child from a bear, who fired his "three hundred and eighty" pistol at the bear.
The fire man in question had his .380 in his pocket when he stumbled upon the bear standing over the little girl's body.
So who knows how correct this newsman was!
April 15, 2006, 10:09 AM
Buying from my local Academy is cheaper than Wal-Mart. I can buy two 50-round boxes of 9mm for less than one of the valuepacks that wallyworld puts out. Plus, Academy is a helluva lot more pro-gun. The one I frequent has an M4-gery by Bushmaster that I've been eyeing for some time now :evil:

April 15, 2006, 10:25 AM
After last Sundays shooting match I picked up 10 of the 100 packs of white box at Wallmart. I had them keep a big supply and told other shooters to keep buying there so the store will always keep a good stock. We shoot alot out here so it's no big deal to buy a thousand at a time:D
April 15, 2006, 10:29 AM
Evidently the Wal-Mart at the corner of Broadway and I-30 in Garland, TX is one of the 1000 stores that is targeted to remove firearms from their shelves. My friend went in there last week and was told they were stopping firearm sales that very day. It looks as if Academy will get my sporting goods business......all of it!
Bass Pro is being built in Garland, just east of that Wal-Mart on I-30.
I have bought only two guns from Wal- Mart. I usually buy myguns and ammo at gun shows.
April 15, 2006, 10:39 AM
Good grief. If, and note I said IF Wal-Mart ever stiops selling ammo, I'll do the same thing I did before I started buying ammo from Wal-Mart. I'll buy it somewhere else.
Around here Dicks Sporting Goods, and Gander Mountain are right neck and neck with Wal-Mart for ammo prices, Dicks might be a little cheaper on Rem-UMC actually. I buy it mostly from Wal-Mart because it's convient. No other reason.
I did buy one of the really nice Wally World Special Ruger 10/22's a month or so ago. Nice rife. The "mutant" employee who waited on me was very polite, knew his business, and didn't take any longer to fill out the paperwork than any other place I've ever bought a gun other than the manager checking to make sure it was all done correctly; maye 5 extra minutes. I don't even mind the "walk of shame" as someone else has called it. I wish he would carry the dog food and the cat litter to the car for me too. ;) That stuff is heavy.
Even after that I had to wait for my wife to finish shopping before I could leave. :what:
April 15, 2006, 10:48 AM
Who said that they're going to stop selling ammo? They're going to stop selling GUNS in some market because they're a low profit margin item, but why would they stop selling ammo?
They don't sell cars, but they sell oil and air filters. Ammo doesn't take up much shelf space or require forms in a lot of states.
And there are no Dick's or Bass Pro or Academies here. Wally World has Blazer Brass 9mm for $5.97 a box and .45 for $8.97. The only other alternative is ridiculous-markup local gun shops that are few and far between. :barf:
April 15, 2006, 01:44 PM
+1 Academy, if I don't get ammo on-line or at gun shows, its usually Academy I go to. Unlike Wal-Mart I can usually get a case and not leave the shelves empty for the guy behind me.
Gander Mountain sent me a flyer with WW 100 pks for $9.95, drove out there and got some but like Wal-Mart they weren't stocked deep enough for me to make a regular thing of it -- to drive that far unless I can count on getting two cases at least, its not worth it. I pass three Wal-Marts on my way home form work, but traffic flow and store locations make it waste 30-40 minutes minimum if I stop there. I pass two Academy stores and its only a 10-25 minute detour to get in and out.
April 16, 2006, 10:41 AM
Bass Pro Shop! Luckily there is one where I live. Sure they only sell Winchester and Remington and maybe one other but as far as .22lr,9mm,and .38sp range ammo it works for me. There is also a Academy Sports here and they have some decent ammo deals. For exotic/performance type ammo I go to a local gun shop that has a crazy ammo selection(Clark Gun). To tell you the truth with those three I have never bought ammo from Wally World but Im sure I would if it was all I had.
April 16, 2006, 09:36 PM
Hawkmoon said: none of the stores have firearms any more
The one I visited did. All the ones here have plenty to keep the hunters happy with what they commonly like. In fact, the manager was ordering a $1000 rifle while I was in the store. I'd buy a 1k rifle someplace else, myself . . . but . . .
Str8Shooter said: According to this, Wal-Mart will stop selling firearms in stores where there is little demand for them.
Imagine that, a retailer as shrewd as Walmart phasing out a segment of their buniness in stores that can't move the product. It makes good business sense, just like not having a Lawn and Garden section in an urban store. Am I supposed to get angry over this?
wally said: If I had enough hours of free time to run-around to Wal-Marts to find ammo, I'd be able to reload enough .45 insteasd and not be shooting 9mm at all.
Or, you could spend 3 minutes face time with the manager like I did, and get as much as you want there in 3 days waiting for you. I hate wasting time walking around a gun show getting swept hundreds of time by guns trying to see who still has what I want in case volumes.
My preferred firearms dealer is not a convenient trip, and they have to order what I want, too. No one stocks cases around here, I have to ask. Or order it to have it shipped and pay for that cost. Its also inconvenient when UPS won't leave an "adult signature required" package in front of my garage.
April 26, 2006, 11:06 PM
FWIW I was at my local Wal-Mart here in SE MN today and I asked the guy behind the desk. He said that their getting rid of the guns in August but the ammo and accesories are staying. At least at this Wal-Mart. I guess we'll see.

Buckeye Outdoors in COlumbus Ohio has CCI Blazer Brass case 9mm 115gr FMJ for $5.99/50, or .45ACP 230gr FMJ for $9.99/50
Click on one of the stores then click on view sales flyer for a pdf doc.
I stocked up on American Eagle red box 9mm 115grFMJ for about $119/1000 a couple years ago.
Then I bought a bunch of bulk reloaded 9mm FMJ 115gr range ammo, comes in big bags of 500 loose rounds, for $39 a bag. At a gun show somewhere. So far the quality has been excellent for range ammo.
April 27, 2006, 12:55 AM
wal mart isnt out yet. They are removing inventory from stores not making a profit on guns, and for that I can't blame them.
As for ammo that is in wal marts for the foreseeable future.

Quinny® Strolls into the Spotlight
When people envision a baby stroller, they rarely think high-fashion and glamour. But the new Quinny Q Design stroller collection was set to change that, with a high-style launch that engaged the taste-makers and cast Quinny® as a fashion brand.
Our Approach
360PR rolled out the Quinny Q Design™ stroller collection with a runway show in fashion central, New York's Bryant Park, hosted by Bravo's Pregnancy in Heels' Rosie Pope.
The Results
The multi-faceted launch made a splash with media, bloggers, retailers and on social channels. As People magazine put it, "Quinny just gave us one more reason to shop their well-designed strollers!" More than 40 style-conscious media and bloggers attended, and 360PR recruited four uber-stylish bloggers to extend the conversation to millions of moms on Twitter and Livestream. Meanwhile, InStyle, MTV, Redbook, Fit Pregnancy and many others covered the new Q Design stroller collection.
Continuing Quinny's fashion story, 360PR recently launched Quinny's Pinterest page.

Sparkman Cellars
Down the "row" of Woodinville, Washington wineries-in-warehouses, near our old friends at Mark Ryan, is Chris Sparkman's (or Sparky, as he is called) Sparkman Cellars. Chris is one of those super talented winemakers whose delightful love of life comes through in the names and styles of his big red wines.
A Seattle transplant, Chris was born and raised on the east coast, and still sports a southern accent from his Nashville roots. First in Washington DC and New Orleans, then in Seattle, he was a sommelier and wine buyer at great restaurants, ending up at Seattle's Waterfront Grill as general manager for six years.
More About Sparkman Cellars
As a noted sommelier, Chris got to know the vintners who visited the Grill. Tasting their wines and making what would become close friendships, he caught the winemaking bug. Over the next few years, he gradually shifted to a career as a fulltime winemaker - via our friend Mark McNeilly, the generous owner of Mark Ryan. Mark McNeilly has helped several talented winemakers in Woodinville's warehouse row to get started - and Chris has been one of the most successful.
at right, Chris, Kelly, Stella Mae, and Ruby Leigh Sparkman
Chris's first vintages (2004-2006) were made with Mark at the Mark Ryan warehouse space. Sparkman Cellars moved into their own space for the 2007 vintage. In the tradition of his friends up and down the row, Chris hunts down and grabs some first-class grapes from Yakima and Walla Walla Valley vineyard every year. His wines are big and bold, with his own trademark style. Big yet refined, his zest for life shows through in every sip.

HAUTE, Ind. - In a game that featured 28 hits, 21 runs
and five home runs, the Indiana State baseball team outlasted the visiting
Indiana Hoosiers on a windy Wednesday at Bob Warn Field at Sycamore Stadium,
topping the Hoosiers 13-8.
Indiana State improves to 8-4 on the season with the victory, their eighth victory in their last nine games. Indiana falls to 3-8 on the season with the loss.
What most likely was the softest hit off an Indiana State bat for the entire afternoon gave the Sycamores an early 1-0 lead on Wednesday, as junior Jeremy Lucas brought home senior Kyle Burnam with a single to right field with two outs in the first inning. Lucas skied the pitch down the right field line, but the ball got caught in the 30 mile per hour wind blowing towards left field and dropped into shallow right field in between a pair of Indiana fielders to score Burnam who hustled in from first base.
Indiana took the lead in the top of the second inning, coming on a three-run home run to left field by freshman Chris Sujka. IU would extend their lead to 4-1 in the top of the third inning on a two-out single through the left side of the infield by sophomore Dillon Dooney.
ISU chipped two runs off the IU lead in the third, using back-to-back one-out singles by freshman Landon Curry and redshirt junior Koby Kraemer to get on base before Lucas brought both home with a two-out single to right.
The Sycamores regained the lead in the bottom of the fourth inning, scoring four runs in the frame to take a 7-4 advantage. Sophomore Tyler Wampler, Curry, Kraemer and junior Robby Ort tallied four straight RBIs in the inning.
After the Hoosiers score an unearned run in the top of the fifth, ISU responded with three runs of their own to go up 10-5 after the fifth inning. Indiana State's three runs in the fifth came on home runs, with senior Jon Hedges leading off the frame with a solo shot before Wampler hit his first career home run with a two-run shot to left with two outs.
ISU would tack on a single runs in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings, using a single from Burnam in the sixth, a solo home run from junior Casey McCurdy in the seventh and a bunt single by Burnam in the eighth to score runs. The Sycamores scored runs in seven of their eight innings at the plate on Wednesday, only going scoreless in the second.
Eight pitchers took the mound for Indiana State on Wednesday, with sophomore Kurt Kudrecki (1-0) earning the victory by tossing 2.2 innings of relief.
Lucas and Wampler both brought home three runs while at the plate, with Lucas leading the way with three hits.
Indiana State continues their six-game homestand this weekend, hosting UT Martin on Friday through Sunday at Bob Warn Field. First pitch is set for 3:00 p.m. on Friday, 2:00 p.m. on Saturday and 1:00 p.m. on Sunday.

Good morning Antony,
I have just read your blog which mentions your experiences at Frampton and Freiston and I must say I was touch by your enthusiasm for our reserves. It's wonderful to hear someone wax lyrical about the more common yet just as stunning wildlife we have here; brent geese, grebes and even canada geese!
I completely agree with what you say; sometimes we just need to take a step back and take it all in to appreciate what we have.
Thank you for sharing your blog post with us, it's brightened up my cold, foggy morning.
Laura (Visitor and Publicity Officer, Frampton Marsh and Freiston Shore)
Only just seen this reply ... ;o)
Thank you for you lovely words. I was up at Frampton and Freiston last weekend, and I will be back again in about 4 weeks time. I had an amazing time again .. there is a new blog going up right now on the We Love Wales bit, I will link it here when I get a chance.
My latest RSPB Blog, and another stunning visit to Frampton and Freiston!

Walnut Dining Chairs Eastlake Victorian, Set of Six , Carving
Set of six walnut and burl walnut Eastlake Victorian dining chairs consisting of two arm chairs and four side chairs. Unusual to find a nice set of six in this most versatile and desirable form. These were well made in 1875-80 era. Wonderful quality, solid and sturdy. The original stretchers under the seat match each other per chair but are of two different configurations. That is the only difference. I have seen this happen in other sets as well. See pictures for details. Carved back rail has leafy and diamond (lozenge) carvings with incise detail.
LAST TWO PICTURES; show chairs after touch up, cleaning, and relacquering.
They are sound and tight. We will most likely clean these with the proper solvents to remove all dirt, degraded coating, and other contaminants. Following that we will tape off the fabric then recolor and coat the wood with shellac followed by satin lacquer. They will look fresh but satin in sheen. I say that our cleanup and recoloring + recoating is better than most places complete refinishing jobs and are smooth. To clarify, we like to restore items to look as if they were well cared for rather than looking like new. If a customer wants an item to look new I feel it is our obligation to re-educate.
I know the only beauty now is in the form and style but once restored the walnut will glow, the burl strips below and above the upholstered backs will dance, and the overall effect will be awesome.
I usually charge 150 minimum to reglue a loose chair. A broken chair is more. To reglue and refinish a chair is usually 250-350 depending on the style of the chair and what has to be done to make everything right. Sometime it could be more depending on the complexity of the job and chair. This does not include upholstery work. So you can see, a set in which the cost per chair is 250-450 that has been reglued and refinished is a bargain-provided the work was done by a competent restorer.

When Reality Strikes Back!!!!!!
According to an Los Angeles Police Report Sharon Osbourne allegedly attacked one of the contestants on her VH1 reality show "Rock of Love:Charm School". They were taping the reunion show over the weekend and one of the contestants, Megan Hauserman, apparently told Osbourne she was only famous because she managed her husband Ozzy a "Brain Dead Rock Star", this apparently threw Sharon into a rage and Hauserman alleges that Osbourne scratched her and pulled her hair until security could seperate them! I hope they put that on the reunion show edit!!!
But it brings up a question, I hate reality TV, except the Amazing Race and American Idol because it's not just scanitly clad young people getting stupid, so if you could see any two reality stars get in the ring and duke it out, who would it be?
My vote is for Paris Hilton and anyone from the Real World Key West!!!!!

- " Perfect location - mazing view from the roof - terrace, very helpful staff (the Armenien from USA - very helpful!!!!!!!!!!) The weak point is showers. Ask whether the room has window. I had to move from 5 bed female bedroom to 10 bed room with windows - so better more beds but with window. the best hotel you can have in Old city!!!!! Don´t take Abraham which is recomended but very far....sou you will not feel atmosphere.... "

- " Location is good (at first I fought it might be difficult to find it). But have found it without big efforts. My room was very cold. Common bathroom were small and not very clean. Overall would recommend this place as value for money with very good location and terrace on the roof, were you can see old town of Jerusalem around you. "

- " Just avoid the religious nutters that seem to be drawn to the place and everything will be sweet. Lovely place right in the middle of the nicest part of the Old City. Less trouble than sites near Damascus and Lion Gates. Jaffa Gate was not closed while I stayed there right through the middle of the recent troubles. Make sure you take a side trip to Ein Gedi National Park and the Dead Sea. Awesome. And swim in the Sea of Galillee (free swimming appears to be at the southern end of the Sea) "

- " Citadel Youth Hostel is a very nice and friendly place. The Staff are helpful and professional. Everything in the Old Town Center... Beautiful views from the terrace... Cheap and clean... "

OYER, Norway — When Tommy Moe, a pistol-packing, white-water-kayaking reformed dope smoker
from the wilds of Alaska, crossed the finish line of the Olympic downhill yesterday, the crowd went silent for a moment.
It was stunned. Moe had seized the gold medal from a local hero.
Norwegian racer Kjetil Aamodt had preceded Moe down the icy course and taken the lead in the race. About 40,000 people were cheering for Aamodt during Moe's run, all but ignoring the American.

Scallop and Crab Cakes with Tomato, Mango, and Watermelon Salsa
From Chef Ted Fondulas, Hemingway's Restaurant, Killington, Vermont.
Total Time: 80
Yield: 16 cakes
Scallop and Crab Cakes
- 2 pounds fresh scallops*
- 1 pound crab meat
- 1/3 cup finely chopped red pepper
- 1/3 cup finely chopped scallion
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
- Pinch cayenne
- 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon wasabi powder
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Tomato, Mango, and Watermelon Salsa
Clean, dry, and chop scallops into 1/8-inch pieces (do not use a food processor; you'll end up with scallop paste), then place in a bowl with cleaned crab meat. Add pepper, scallion, thyme, cayenne, and salt.
Add 1 tablespoon water to wasabi powder and mix until it forms a paste. Stir wasabi paste into mayonnaise, then add mixture to the scallop-crab mixture.
Divide to form 16 cakes and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
Additional Notes:
*Chopped scallops, rather than mayonnaise and bread crumbs, act as the binder in this recipe. As a result, you want good- quality, untreated scallops (they are pinkish-brown in color). Avoid pearly white scallops that are sold in a preservative liquid.
Tomato, Mango, and Watermelon Salsa
- 2 cups chopped tomato
- 1 cup chopped mango
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon crushed fennel seeds
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons minced jalapeño pepper
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup chopped watermelon
- 3 cups mixed greens
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
In a large bowl, combine tomato, mango, thyme, fennel seeds, sesame seeds, sesame oil, jalapeño pepper, sugar, and vinegar. Toss and set aside.
Preheat oven to 425°. Sauté scallop-crab cakes in vegetable oil 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Place in a 425° oven 3 to 5 minutes, or until center is warm. Do not overcook.
Add watermelon to salsa and divide salsa among eight plates. Place 2 cakes on each bed of salsa. Toss mixed greens with salt, pepper, and olive oil, then place on top of cake.

A couple of things are still puzzling me....
1. What exactly does the color (green, orange or red) of the bullets on the TDM indicate? I know the number of bullets indicates force size, but I'm not clear of the significance of the color, is it related to supply, cohesion, losses...all of the above?
2. how do you save a game without overwriting the previous save?
Thanks for your help, I'm enjoying this game a great deal

The U.S. House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on Thursday in favor of extra unemployment payments.
President Obama is expected to sign the bill after Congress delivers it to the White House. The bill provides funding for 2.5 million jobless Americans whose unemployment benefits have been exhausted after six months. The measure will give them an additional 73 weeks of unemployment checks at the rate of $309 a week.
"Americans who are working day and night to get back on their feet and support their families in these tough economic times deserve more than obstruction and partisan game-playing," Obama said in a statement Wednesday night.
The Senate finally broke the Republicans' blockade of the measure on Wednesday.
Democrats chose to pay for the measure by adding $34 billion to the national debt. Republicans had been blocking that move, saying Congress needed to use budget cuts to cover the bill. Sen. Ben Nelson of Nebraska was the only Democrat to break with his party to oppose the bill.
This year the federal deficit will exceed $1 trillion for a third straight year.

Our View: What's special about Erie?
How do we come to appreciate, celebrate and preserve Erie's sense of place? Local people had a chance to think about that question as they viewed Erie's sense of place through new eyes recently.
During the Erie Art Museum's May 31 Gallery Night, LifeWorks Erie, 406 Peach St., exhibited a multidisciplinary project, "Shapes and Stories of the City," in which Wayne Elementary School students used art to explore East Avenue's history, architecture and immigrant neighborhood.
On June 6, Destination Erie sponsored two talks by Thomas Hylton. A journalist from Pottstown, outside Philadelphia, he champions creative solutions to help Pennsylvania towns and cities keep their unique flavors. Speaking to capacity crowds at the Harborcreek Township Building and the Jefferson Educational Society, he shared ideas on how to preserve green space, encourage walkable communities and avoid turning landscapes into "junkscapes." Destination Erie sponsored his talks.
He showed examples of cities and counties that have used designed-based zoning standards to preserve traditional architecture and "smart growth" strategies to prevent sprawl. In Freeport, Maine, home to L.L. Bean, McDonald's lost a court case to build a modern restaurant with its iconic golden arches. Instead, McDonald's redeveloped a farmhouse into a profitable tourist attraction, he said.
Hylton, a Pottstown School Board member, talked about the board's decision to keep four neighborhood schools open instead of razing them and building a consolidated school. A new trail in the works "will make it possible for all kids to walk or ride bikes to school," he said.
Hylton didn't recommend solutions to current controversies in Erie, such as the proposed new Sheetz store near Presque Isle State Park, the two school closings in the Millcreek Township School District or the decision to reroute buses off State Street in downtown Erie. Instead, he advocates creative, cost-saving solutions to thorny issues. "If we want to encourage caring in Pennsylvania, we need places to care about," Hylton said.
His words echo those of artist Tom Ferraro, who worked on the Wayne School project with artist Lora Zill and Melinda Meyer, a board member of Preservation Erie. Wayne Principal Diane Sutton and Assistant Principal Gina Rullo encouraged 20 kids to volunteer. The students visited and sketched the Land Lighthouse, the Pennsylvania Soldiers' & Sailors' Home and the Wayne Blockhouse. They drew,from memory, buildings on their routes to school. The project's goal was to give students a sense of pride in where they live and to help them see that when we preserve neighborhoods and buildings, "they serve as a reminder of who we are and stand as symbols of who we want to be," Ferraro said.
Visit www.saveourlandsaveourtowns.org to learn more about Hylton's work. Preservation Erie hopes to put the Wayne lesson plans, a pilot program, on its website, www.eriecdp.org.

Well, the obvious solution to the google dilemma, is to not post via it.
usenet was designed to be used with a dedicated client. Google's web gateway
might be useful for searching their archives but it's always taken ages for
things posted via it to get out onto the real usenet network.
Proper news servers propogate the messages very quickly, normally.

Please Learn from Zimmerman Tweets
If another World War erupts or the apocalypse finally arrives, be certain the Internet somehow will orchestrate it. We'd be helpless in preventing such an uprising and probably would go freako like Michael Cera in ``This Is The End,'' but for now, we can control this much: Don't use social media to vent outrage about volatile developments in the world, especially when you're a professional athlete who can influence public thinking and fan vitriolic flames over a topic as powerful as race in America.
All of us felt something after the George Zimmerman acquittal. But other than the family of Trayvon Martin, the president of the United States, the jurors, a few trusted legal experts and Zimmerman himself, I have little interest in what anyone thinks about the verdict. Certainly, I don't care what people in sports think unless they have intelligent ways of making the world better. In the cases of NFL receivers Roddy White and Victor Cruz, I'd like them to catch the ball when it's thrown their way, do productive things in the community and earn their millions.
Tweeting what they did after the verdict? Not smart.
Wrote White: ``All them jurors should go home tonight and kill themselves for letting a grown man get away with killing a kid''
Wrote Cruz: ``Zimmerman doesn't last a year till the hood catches up to him.''
I understand why people are emotional, but this is not why Jack Dorsey -- is that the guy's name? -- founded Twitter. By now, you'd think athletes would realize the dangers involved in reckless usage of the 140-character missile. It's perilous enough to engage fans or opponents in tweet wars amid league rivalries. But to suggest jurors kill themselves or that ``the hood'' will attack Zimmerman in the next year ? my God, what are they thinking?
Both apologized quickly via Twitter. But the tweets already had been retweeted, the news stories written and the damage done. In a time when Aaron Hernandez has been charged with murder and the NFL faces more questions than ever about its criminal element, the league should enforce a social media policy -- such as the one at ESPN -- that forbids commentary about sensitive public issues. Any expressed thought of violent retaliation, for instance, should be considered unacceptable and punishable. There simply are too many creeps on the Internet who can be swayed, such as the 15-year-old in a far northern Chicago suburb who allegedly wrote this on his Twitter feed the day before the verdict: ``If Zimmerman leaves free imma shoot everybody in Zion causing a mass homicide, and ill get away wit it just like Zimmerman."
The teenager was charged with a felony.
The sports kingdom, I assume, has taken notice.

The Nike KD V 'Aunt Pearl' release date is March 23rd, 2013. The sneaker, like the All-Star Nike KD V before it, will come with a bumped up price tag ($135) to reflect the 'premium' nature alluded to in the title. The pair sort of seems to reflect a turning point in Kevin Durant's sneaker line, one that will allow his footwear to sit at the same premium level as the rest of the Nike Basketball fare (a move alluded to by designer Leo Chang in his most recent sit down with Sneaker News). Get a look at the Nike KD V 'Aunt Pearl' (Releasing March 23rd) after the jump and then pick up an early pair from xtrathroed83 on eBay.

why are the prices changing? i dont recall a kd 4 more than original retail
Are they releasing in grade school sizes ??
So many grammatical errors so little time!
very weak uumhhh... but if for a good cause I'm in!
I hope these are a GR, i actually like em
There okay, not for casual wear though. Broke resellers will buy me just to say they supporting a good cause. If Nike needed your money these would be a GR. I'll keep my 147.00. Price hikes are in full effect now extra 20 for cheap ass materials.
Nikes not gonna donate profits
I might consider these. They're fresh and for a good cause if the money goes to research or something.
Remember when KD said he didn't want his kicks over 100 bucks?... at dis rate, a KD 7 is gonna b round 180 to 200 range like dis yrs lebrons lol
@Famborghini stop postin on here... nobody likes ya music
@JManSam when it comes to shoes dat are fa a "good cause", Nike actually cuts them a check ahead of time. So when shoes are released, they get their donation back plus interests... So money goes to a good cause by Nike but da actually purchasing of da shoes & da proceeds going to da cause isn't wat happens..
@Da_Real_Big_Infinite yea I could figure that with Nike lol. At least it's something tho and regardless these are pretty dope
@JManSam hell yea, these are pretty fly.. ima try to grab them my dam self

The first longer excerpt from my novel-in-progress, The Spinal Descent, will appear in the Spring 2016 issue of Conjunctions. Considering how much this journal has meant to me over the years, I couldn't be happier to let the novel run off the leash a bit in its pages. May it find a creek and scamper in and come out sopping and shaking. More information about the issue and my fellow contributors, so many of whom I admire, can be found here: http://www.conjunctions.com/preview.htm.
Nancy Pearl Talks up Understories on NPR's Morning Edition
The one, the only Nancy Pearl had some tremendously generous things to say about UNDERSTORIES in conversation with Steve Inskeep on NPR's Morning Edition. Calling the book "her favorite short story collection in recent memory," she went on to dub the work "elastic realism," explaining that the book is "firmly grounded in realism,…[b]ut then…stretches that definition of realism into places that we might not think it would go."
Plainly and simply, I love this characterization and broke into a rather elastic dance upon hearing her.
She also had kind words for Bellevue Literary Press on Seattle's The Record, stating, "Their books are just gems. It's hard to find a Bellevue Literary Press book that, for me, doesn't work."

Understories wins for Outstanding Work of Fiction in the New Hampshire Literary Awards
I'm humbled and thrilled to announced that UNDERSTORIES has been chosen as the winner of the New Hampshire Literary Award for Outstanding Fiction. Congratulations again to all of the other nominees, and to the winners in other categories, many of whom I'm fortunate to have met: Andy Merton in Poetry, Terry Farish in the Young Adult category, Rebecca Rule for Children's Literature, and Mary Johnson in Nonfiction. The awards were presented at New Hampshire Writers' Day on March 22nd on the campus of Southern New Hampshire University.

I've got a "Recommendation" on Zadie Smith's On Beauty in Post Road 29, alongside recommendations by Jac Jemc and many others, plus fiction by Jamie Poissant, in addition to the usual great fare that the journal serves up. You can read the piece at http://www.postroadmag.com/29/recommends/horvath.phtml, or sift through the issue at http://www.postroadmag.com/index.phtml. My piece spotlights the book's treatment of music and the sheer music of Smith's prose.
"What Lies Beneath": Article in Take Magazine
Take Magazine is a thoroughly snazzy new glossy presence on the newsstand–not the proverbial one but the actual newsstand. I love their look, at once vintage and wholly contemporary, and their knack for sniffing out offbeat stories about New England culture and the arts. I was thrilled to meet writer Janet Reynolds at the Hartford Public Library to talk shop (and forest and conservatory). You can pick up a copy or subscribe at http://www.thetakemagazine.com/index.html, or check out the article here: http://thetakemagazine.com/print/october/articles/what-lies-beneath.html.

Interview in The Parrott
Okay, now I'm going to gush about one of my favorite local entities, the Portsmouth Public Library. They have a top-notch collection that runs the gamut from the big presses to independents like Dalkey Archive, Europa, Coffee House, and Dorothy. They have mahjong every Saturday morning. They run a How-to Festival that this year included how to compost with worms, tie knots, dance the Masala bhangra, and make a firefly(!). And, last but not least, they've started their own magazine to capture goings-on, offer book reviews, and profile some of their patrons. Marina Buckler was kind enough to interview me for their debut issue, even though I think I had a few overdue items at the time. You can check it all out, including a literary Mad-Lib, here: (our conversation is on pg. 15): The Parrott Summer 2015.

Taking Refuge in Conversation: A Talk with Katherine Towler in The Square
The gorgeous new journal The Square (yep, it's perfectly square–I checked) which focuses on arts and culture in the greater Portsmouth area, published a conversation between myself and my writer friend Katherine Towler. Katie is the author of, among many books, the forthcoming nonfiction book The Penny Poet of Portsmouth, which Publishers Weekly described as "a beautiful portrait of friendship and writing." We strolled around the Great Bay Wildlife Refuge and talked about writing and other stuff with bulky binoculars dangling around our necks in case of fortuitous bird sightings that only happened in the parking lot.

Sun is now finallypart of Oracle.
Its hard to put final thoughts about Sun into words. So I'll leave withthis Sun RIF image(get commerative T-shirtsand/or mugs here) that
Sunuber-software-architect James Gosling drew as part of his farewellmessage.
Having worked at Sun for 21+ years, its hard to leave without a fewwords that I'd like to mumble out, anyway. I like Scott McNealy'sparting words ("Kicked Butt, Had Fun, Loved our Customers, NeverCheated, Changed Computing forever"), but I'd like to put in my own. Sohere goes:
- Sun was one of the best employee friendly company I know. Sungave me an environment that nurtured my own technological and personalpursuits.
- Sun always took the high road, sometimes even to the detriment ofits own business model.
- Sun could look forward and had a clear vision of where thetechnological world was headed and was ready to lead the road there(sometimes, again, to the detriment of providing help in immediate,present day matters). Its amazing to see, in retrospect, how often Sungot it right.
- Sun innovated like crazy, and is perhaps the most shining exampleof Silicon Valley technology opening up new and expanding presentmarkets.
- Sun was decent. With its own employees. With managers andengineers alike. With customers. And even with its competitors. Sun(and sometimes I) had to fight FUD from other 3-letter companies (eg)but we never did it by putting them down. It wasnt just the decentthing to do, it was the Sun thing to do.
- Sun was friendly and even-handed. Up and down the organizationalchart. I even remember when Scott McNealy (then-CEO) talked of how heproposed to his future-wife. I remember Scott giving out beer at earlybeer busts. I remember Scott in Sun's cafeteria and cosying up to theengineering types, who were a bit shy about wanting to talk to him(what do you say to the one guy who's the overwhelming reason you cameto Sun in the first place?). Sun was open-door. And it taught me as amanager to be equally friendly and open and that there was immensevalue in the (considered) opinion of every employee, from thenewly-graduated to the most distinguished, industry-recognized leader and thatthe best ideas dont come from personal job-titles but from applying intelligence andknowledge to the problem at hand.
- Sun was forgiving. If you made an honest mistake, you never gotdinged for it but had a chance to learn from it. Learning from stumbles gave us alla chance to make Sun even better as a company.
And Sun was a fun place! From the innumerable April Fools pranks towater fights to Christmas parties to Beer Busts to "All Hands" meetingsto too many other events to remember and enumerate, working at Sun wassuch joy. When you combine technological excellence with enablingemployees to do their best, to caring for their families in the bestway to being the most open and open-minded workplace anywhere, ever,you create an environment that is unmatched.
There will never be another Sun. Never. So, thanks for the 21 or soyears. On a personal note, I know I will cherish my time here like noneother.
PS. Folks who have subscribed to my blog, thanx for listening for allthese years. Another chapter will emerge, but this one is now over. Seeyou on the other side.

3 Tips for Holiday Returns and Exchanges
When the giddy days of holiday sales end, online retailers frequently need to deal with the inevitable returns and exchanges barrage. But when customer contacts are seen as opportunities, even returns can be a tool to improve an ecommerce business.
Online returns and exchanges are a point of concern for shoppers. The customer frequently has to wait for an item to ship back to the merchant, be processed, and then wait for a new item to be shipped out. Or the customer has to wait as much as a week for a refund to make its way from the merchant, through a payment process, and back to the customer's bank or payment account. In either case it can be a hassle.
Likewise, some online merchants see returns and exchanges as challenges, since frequently the merchant pays for shipping both ways and may or may not be able to restock the item or return it to the manufacturer.
As a result of these concerns, returns and exchanges can make both the shopper and the seller unhappy. This is unfortunate, since any sort of customer contact is a chance to build a lasting relationship and make more sales.
Online retailers should think about exchanges or returns the same way they think about advertising. How much would an online retailer pay for an opportunity to interact with a customer? How about a qualified customer known to have an interest in the product the merchant sells? Retailers spend money all of the time to have a customer interaction — even one that does not end in an immediate sale. Hence, return requests or exchanges should not be seen so much as an operations expense, but rather another way to engage customers.
With a more positive view of returns and exchanges, there are at least three ways that both merchant and shopper may benefit. These return and exchange tips include (a) an opportunity to impress shoppers and earn long-term business, (b) the chance to make additional sales immediately, and (c) the opportunity to improve both store purchasing and marketing.
1. Treat Returns and Exchanges Like an Opportunity to Impress
Customers may see the need to return or exchange an item as a service failure. To a merchant, this concept — that the need to return something is a service failure — might seem odd. After all, the shopper chose the size, color, and product. So how could it be the merchant's fault?
Nonetheless from a customer's perspective, the sale did not go the way it should have. Either the product was not pictured and described well or it was not standard in its size or fit. And this is actually an opportunity to impress.
A customer that has a problem with an order necessitating an exchange or return will be more likely to purchase from that same merchant in the future, if that return is handled well. Put simply, when the merchant does a good job managing a return, a customer learns that working with this store is easy, even when things go wrong. The customer trusts the merchant to solve any future problems, and should be more likely to purchase again.
2. Use Returns and Exchanges to Make Additional Sales
Anytime a merchant has an opportunity to interact with a customer, there is an opportunity to make an additional sale.
As an example, a multi-channel seller in the northwestern U.S. recently began giving customers who requested an exchange an opportunity to add other items to the exchange shipment at a 10-percent discount and with free shipping.
Imagine the customer calls in and requests the exchange. The store representative takes down the contact information and then says, "Great, as usual, the shipping for your exchange is free. Is there anything else that you want me to put in the box? The free shipping would apply to that item too, plus, I can give you 10 percent off of anything on the site, right now."
3. Let Returns and Exchanges Improve Marketing, Product Selection
Information gathered from customers who are requesting exchanges or returns may also be used to improve store operations.
Merchants should track all returns, looking for the most frequently exchanged or returned items. Looking at each of these items, the seller should look at product photography, product descriptions, advertising and promotional copy. Is the item being described properly? Similarly, look at the manufacturing quality and packaging. Is the item something that the merchant should continue to stock?

7 Last Minute Holiday Marketing Improvements

Thanks Armando, I really loved what you wrote. more then once i have noticed that customers that returned items, bought from us again (most of the time when we processed their returns quickly), Now i have some ideas how i can actually use returns and exchanges as part our marketing (the 10% off idea is really great).
P.S: I sent the article to my customer service workers…
Goodness, returning or exchanging an item can sometimes be the most frustrating thing for both the person behind and in front of the counter. But I do agree that such an interaction doesn't necessarily have to be negative. Actually, you could think of it as more opportunity to sell and promote. You can never get enough holiday interactions! Here's something on the topic. http://www.sbtelegram.com/2012/11/30/how-to-get-more-customer-interaction-this-holiday-season/
It goes both ways…customers do know how to take advantage of a merchant if you give them the opportunity.
In my business, I treat each return/exchange on a case-by-case basis.
Say, for example, that you offer free shipping on a heavy product. The customer wants to exchange it, so you offer to pay for return shipping, and then free shipping back to the customer? That makes no sense.
Retaining a customer, yes. But not at the detriment to your business.

For weeks her family kept vigil, praying over her, fixing her hair. Finally, Laura awoke—insisting her name was Whitney. In fact, dental records proved she was Whitney Cerak, 19. Written by both families, this memoir is often frustrating: How did the Van Ryns mistake Whitney for their child, despite eyes that didn't quite look right and a pierced navel? Their realization is excruciating; the Ceraks' reunion with their daughter exhilarating. Back in college, Whitney says she's forever grateful to the Van Ryns, now friends. "Most people would be mad about what happened, but they aren't," she writes. As Laura's sister Lisa puts it, "All those prayers we prayed for Laura, the Lord knew who was really lying in that bed."

Santa Clarita Valley residents interested in commenting on the proposed construction of sound stages and production facilities on Disney's Golden Oak Ranch are invited to a meeting Monday evening in Newhall.
Disney and ABC Studios edged closer to their goal of building six high-tech sound stages and production facilities on the west side of Golden Oak Ranch in Placerita Canyon with the release of a draft environmental impact report in May.
The public has 45 days to comment on the proposed project, with the comment period ending June 18.
The 890-acre movie ranch east of Interstate 14 off Placerita Canyon Road is in an unincorporated area of Los Angeles County and has long been used for producing movies and television shows.
Disney and ABC Studios plan to add sound stages and production facilities on a 58-acre parcel on the western edge of the property.
The project includes up to 555,950 square feet of buildings with six sound-stage buildings with two stages each, six bungalows for actors and writers, production storage and offices, administration offices, production shops and other support facilities including utility buildings, according to a project fact sheet.
A 220-foot bridge spanning Placerita Creek would allow for access to the entire ranch. A two-million-gallon water tank would be built south of Placerita Canyon Road and a trail would be built to connect to existing trails within the Angeles National Forest, according to a notice from the county Department of Regional Planning.
The project would have a significant impact on local noise and air quality during the facility's construction, according to a Disney representative.
The project involves removing 158 of some 3,000 oak trees on the property, including 16 heritage oaks, and encroaching on 82 other oaks, according to the document.
The county requires at least 442 oak trees be planted as replacements, but Disney and ABC Studios are planning to plant 1,600 trees on the property.
Construction will bring an estimated 3,152 new jobs to the area during construction; 2.854 full- and part-time jobs would be created after the project is completed, according to company executives.
An estimated $533 million in annual economic activity throughout the county is expected to be generated when the project is operating fully.
After the comment period ends for the draft report, public comments will be addressed in the final report, which company executives said should be released in the fall.
If county officials approve the project, it would move into the design phase.

Competition Policy and Organizational Fragmentation in Health Care
Thomas L. Greaney
Saint Louis University School of Law
Saint Louis U. Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2009-04
A central challenge for all health care reform proposals currently being discussed is finding the means to effectively channel market forces given many deeply embedded features of our system and the peculiar economics of health care delivery and financing. This essay traces the path of competition law in health care and explains its chicken-and-egg relationship with provider organizational arrangements. It explores a central puzzle for future health care policy: why have market forces failed to counteract organizational fragmentation? Answering this question requires an understanding of why competition policy is inexorably linked to the organizational structures of health care providers and payers and how that the fragmentation that bedevils those arrangements has undermined its success. The article concludes with a negative assessment of recent "consumer directed" approaches, finding them likely to increase fragmentation and incapable of delivering the benefits of competition.

Previous studies of the effects of acute alcohol ingestion in normal subjects have used measures of left ventricular performance that are altered by changes in preload and afterload and in contractile state. In studies involving nine healthy, young adults, we measured sensitive load-independent end-systolic indices of left ventricular contractility over a wide range of pressures generated by methoxamine infusion before and after oral alcohol administration. Echocardiography was used in conjunction with calibrated carotid pulse tracings. Alcohol ingestion resulted in a fall (p < 0.01) in left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (a measure of preload), end-systolic wall stress (a measure of afterload), and systemic vascular resistance, while not changing the left ventricular shortening fraction. In contrast, the end-systolic pressure-dimension slope decreased (p < 0.001) and the rate-corrected velocity of left ventricular fiber shortening at an end-systolic wall stress of 50 g/cm2 fell (p < 0.001). Thus, when load-independent assessment of left ventricular contractility is done, acute alcohol ingestion has a myocardial depressant effect greater than previously suspected.
