JOPLIN, Mo. (AP) — Some people won't be getting the Christmas presents they were expecting.
Missouri troopers seized about 20 pounds of marijuana from a car this week — some of it in luggage, and some in boxes wrapped as Christmas gifts.
The Highway Patrol says troopers found the marijuana in the car they stopped for speeding on Interstate 44 near Joplin.
Two California women in the car gave troopers permission to search the vehicle. Both were charged Tuesday with one marijuana-related count and released on $1,000 bond.

Just south of the malecón is the Plaza de la Fe San Juan Pablo II, a large square whose central obelisk commemorates Pope John Paul II's two visits to Nicaragua. At its lake end sits the Concha Acústica or "acoustic shell" statue (resembling a large white wave), which serves as a stage for concerts and shows. The plaza is rarely busy and is one of the fiercest suntraps in the city, though it looks better at night when floodlighting adds some definition to its vast expanse.

The 2013 holiday season is under way, and SodaStream (NASDAQ: SODA ) has released its new product, called "SodaCaps," just in time. These small containers, shown at the bottom of the following picture, are single-use recyclable flavoring capsules that were created to offer something more convenient than the company's current bottles of syrup flavoring (seen immediately below) for at-home soda-making.
For anyone accustomed to Green Mountain Coffee Roasters' K-Cups, it's easy to see just what SodaStream is trying to accomplish with its flavor caps here: high-margin profits.
I'll take some high margins with that pink grapefruit cap, please.
Green Mountian and SodaStream use a strategy called the razor-and- blade business model, in which a company sells a low-margin item that requires the use of a high-margin item, which has to be replaced frequently. In Green Mountain and SodaStream's case, the low-margin items are the beverage makers, and the high-margin items are the K-cups, SodaCaps, CO2 canisters, and syrup flavorings.
These new caps are a wealth-generating addition to SodaStream's current bottled flavorings and serve a much larger purpose as well.
Taking Coca-Cola and Pepsi down
If these new caps are anywhere near as successful as K-Cups, beverage giants Coca-Cola and PepsiCo have a lot to worry about. For those unfamiliar with SodaStream's history, the company has diligently been working over the past few years on creating a more convenient solution to flavoring to disrupt the soda industry, and SodaCaps appear to be their best effort yet.
In the following video, Motley Fool analyst Blake Bos discusses these new caps and explains why they're so important for the company's long-term plans.
Don't regret missing out on big gains in 2014 with this lucrative company
The market stormed out to huge gains across 2013, leaving investors on the sidelines burned. However, opportunistic investors can still find huge winners. The Motley Fool's chief investment officer has just hand-picked one such opportunity in our new report: "The Motley Fool's Top Stock for 2014."

Update: Marc Stein's power rankings: "Best team in the league that has already been mathematically eliminated from playoff consideration? With the Thunder at 16-21 in 2009 and fresh off wins this month over the Mavs and Spurs, I don't think it's even close." That's good, right?
Alright Thunder management, what've you got? The Bulls just launched a campaign for Derrick Rose's Rookie of the Year candidacy. I think the best campaign would be for Russell Westbrook to completely outplay him for the rest of the season, but that's just me. That could do a lot more than some website with a couple quotes on it. But what do I know?
George Karl thinks "guys like Durant" get calls because they're skinny: "It seems like skinny guys get more call than big guys or thick guys," Karl observed. "Like when (Kevin) Durant goes in there he gets pushed off and you can see him get pushed off. Melo is so strong that he gets hit with the same hit — and I'm saying that all over the league — thick guys don't get pushed off their spot where you can see a skinny guy get pushed off his spot so the whistle blows. I don't think that's fair. I think if there's contact and there's dislodging, if it's only six inches instead of 16 inches it's still a foul."
Ball Don't Lie, Behind the Box Score: "The Thunder had one turnover in the first half, and if that doesn't speak to the type of players that Sam Presti has brought in, and the uncomplicated-but-efficient type of offensive sets that Scott Brooks has introduced, then we're just going to have to talk about the Timberwolves. No? OK, Oklahoma City really seems to enjoy playing with its current roster. As soon as Thabo Sefolosha sat for Kyle Weaver in the first quarter, Thabo was immediately off the bench pointing things out to Weaver after a blown defensive assignment. And instead of acting insulted, or too sensitive, Weaver listened to the man who essentially stole his starting job a month ago. Very cool. And instead of worrying about their power being usurped by a guy in his mid-20s usurping their authority, the Thunder coaching staff let Thabo make his point. This team talks, on both ends, and it does selectively run, but most of the damage against the Timberwolves was done in the half court. I don't think the Thunder are 18 points better than the Timberwolves over a 24-minute span, Minnesota's lackadaisical play contributed to that early deficit, but taking down a team like Minnesota 57-39 in the first half is worth a nod in OKC's direction."
Basketbawful, Worst of the Weekend: "Remember how I mentioned the 'Wolves were 3-16 since Al Jefferson was lost for the season? Make it 3-17 after their 97-90 home loss to the Thunder. And that final score is deceiving. Minny trailed by as many as 32 points and had to outscore the Thunder 37-13 in the fourth quarter to make it close. After the game, Kevin McHale called his team's effort "unacceptable." Added McHale: "I can give you 50 excuses. I can give you all kinds of stuff, but the bottom line is you've got to go out there and play."
D.J. White is off to a nice start in Tulsa: "But after overcoming the initial shock of how the Thunder rookie no longer looks like a power forward, your next reaction will be amazement at how effective he is at playing like one. With his home white Tulsa 66ers jersey sagging off his shoulders Saturday night, White showed why the Thunder is so fond of his skill set and why team officials believe those talents could have a major impact on Oklahoma City's roster. White scored 20 points with eight rebounds, two assists, two blocked shots and two steals to help the 66ers post a 98-97 win over the Los Angeles D-Fenders on Saturday at the SpiritBank Events Center."
Canis Hoopus wasn't that thrilled with the Wolves' performance yesterday: "OK, I'm not going to write about the Wolves/OKC game today. I turned the game off midway through the 2nd quarter and I'm not going to waste time on a game when the team did not show up at the opening tap. Garbage. Absolute garbage. That was the first time I can remember turning off a Wolves game. It was painful to watch and I wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. I suppose I could write a post about how the team is on dangerous ground when the die-hards don't want to watch, but….well, it's just one game with a terrible team and my final test for fandom comes in the offseason and before the 09/10 trade deadline. If they flub that, I'm all aboard with the Okie inlaws and the Thunder."
Don Seeholzer of TwinCities.com: "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound? If the answer is yes, maybe the Timberwolves really did play a basketball game Sunday afternoon at the half-empty Target Center. Actually, it was more of an afternoon nap for the Wolves, who trailed by as many as 32 points in a 97-90 loss to an Oklahoma City team they had beaten by 42 on its last visit to Minnesota."
Jerry Zgoda of the Star Tribune: "Those of you fretting about the Wolves' lottery odds, don't worry. The Thunder will leave the Wolves in the dust before this is all over and only Washington, Sacramento, Memphis and the Clippers will stand between them for the best odds at the No. 1 pick. Five months ago, I loved the young nucleus the Grizzlies had put together and was a bit skeptical of the Thunder and Kevin Durant and thought it would take quite some time for the transplanted franchise to mature. Now after the Grizzlies' incredibly disinterested performance at Target Center a week ago and another look at this new, improved Thunder team…I'd say Oklahoma City is next in line behind Portland in the Western Conference race of, say, 2013."
Britt Robson of Secrets of the City: "While we give the Minnesota braintrust a mulligan on Krstic (if only because their past screwups poisoned the salary well too thoroughly), the Thunder's acquisition of Sefolosha is exactly the sort of bold stroke that would behoove Jim Stack–who used to work for the Bulls, Sefolosha's former employer–and the crew to execute. As announced, the deal was for the Thunder to give the Bulls the worst of their boatload of draft picks this summer, which turns out to be San Antonio with the 26th overall pick. Now the Wolves likewise will have three or four picks, and have publicly said they can't keep all of them, would in fact like to package one or two for another commodity. Well, how about a 6-7 defensive specialist in the backcourt? Since the Bulls were more interested in shedding Sefolosha's salary than in securing a quality player in return –they'd just acquired John Salmons, Tim Thomas and Brad Miller–they probably would have taken the Celtics' first-rounder owed the Wolves (high 20s, higher than San Antonio's), especially if a contingency was that they'd get the Utah pick in the low 20s if the Jazz played well enough to make it transferable to Minnesota this year (it is top 22 protected)."
Hoops Hype looks at the varied success of this year's interim coaches: "Oklahoma City's recent fine play has moved Brooks from being a maybe to looking good. Brooks took over from PJ Carlesimo after he was fired following a 1-12 start, and the Thunder eventually fell to 3-29, putting them in great position to challenge Philadelphia's 9-73 futility mark of 1972-73. But Oklahoma City has gone 16-21 since then, making Brooks 18-38. 'I never looked at it as being tough,' Brooks said of overcoming an interim title. 'I understand the makeup of that tag. But I looked at it as a great opportunity.' Yes, some interim coaches have survived to thrive."
Jeff Capel says Blake Griffin should asbolutely go pro. But out of that story, I found this quote to be most interesting: "Capel admitted his dream job was to be in an NBA front office. He never wanted to be a coach. But his NBA career was cut short by an injury. Then Coach K invited him in to watch the team. And then he watched his father coach. And he decided coaching was for him for now. "I'm not a lifer," Capel said. "This is not something I'm going to do when I'm 50."


text: The Eagles were one of the most successful bands of the 1970's. Their first album titled "The Eagles went gold a year and a half after it was released in June of 1972. The album was a moderate hit (going gold a year and a half later) and produced the Top 40 hits "Take It Easy" (written by Frey and Jackson Browne), "Witchy Woman," and "Peaceful Easy Feeling. The second album that The Eagles released was an album called "Desperado. Unfortunately for The Eagles, this album did not do as well as their first album. This album focused more on a rebel or outlaw type of image for the band, and was somewhat unsuccessful for the band and their image. The band then turned to drugs for a way out. This would influence the rest of their career as a band, and the music that they wrote. For their third album, "On The Border, released in 1974, the group added guitarist Don Felder. This album went gold in three months, rather than a year and a half like their first album did. This album also produced a number one hit called, "Best of My Love. It took quite a while for this album to reach number one though. It was almost a full year after the release of the album that this song hit the number one spot on the charts. At about that same time, the band released its fourth album called, "One of These Nights. The year is now 1975 and the band has been very successful so far in the 1970s. At the end of the year 1976, the band released it's most influential album yet. This album is titled, "Hotel California. From this album comes the title track song, "Hotel California. This song could have a few different meanings behind it, but from what I have read about it, it focuses on one basic thing. Heroin. Some of the members of the band are addicted to the drug heroin, and this is what influences their lives the most. So, being the mu

The Case Against Secret Evidence
Victor Hansen

Lawrence Friedman
New England Law | Boston
Roger Williams University Law Review, Vol. 12, No. 3, 2007
The article considers the lessons that may be learned from the military and civilian court experiences with protected information under the provisions of Military Rule of Evidence 505 and the Classified Information Procedures Act. The paper then focuses on the potential consequences for endorsing the use of secret evidence, and we propose an amendment to Article 36(b) of the UCMJ that will more effectively allow Congress to provide a constitutional check on executive power in this area.

Below, the most important things we learned about Osment's post-child star life from the AMA session.
1. The Sixth Sense was a lot less scary to make than it was to watchThe slow process of production took a lot of the fright out of the macabre thriller, Osment revealed. "There is something desensitizing (not necessarily in a negative way) about seeing the whole process of making a horror movie that prevents you from being too scared going forward," he wrote. Even now, he finds it hard to get scared by a horror movie.
2. He credits his parents for helping him lead a relatively normal lifeDespite his Oscar nomination, Osment doesn't feel like his childhood was much different from other kids. "My parents made a tremendous effort to have a home life, education, and community that preserved the privacy and freedom kids need," he wrote. "I went to a regular elementary school, high school, and went to university with only two work-related interruptions in those last four years."
3. He is full of good things to know about nearly everyone he worked withNot a surprise, really – HJO doesn't really seem like a bridge-burning type – but it's still worthwhile to hear the heaps of praise the former child star dishes on his adult coworkers. Michael Caine is "a gifted storyteller and hugely generous actor," while Robert Duvall has an "absolute dedication to not only his own, but his costars' performances." Jude Law, meanwhile, took hours of dance lessons for his part in A.I., and Steven Spielberg continues to send holiday cards to the Osment family after directing Haley in the film. He rounds out the compliments with these words about Sense costar Willis: "Bruce's radiant manliness certainly cannot be denied. He was great to work with, and I wish I had been a little older at the time because apparently there were some pretty great Willis-DJed crew parties on the weekends at the Philadelphia Convention center."
4. He loved NYUOsment followed in the footsteps of fellow child stars Mara Wilson and the Olsen twins when he matriculated at NYU in 2006. He says it was one of the best decisions of his life: "NYU is a gigantic school, but the little part of it I attended was perfect for me. I was at the Experimental Theater Wing in the Tisch School of the Arts and I loved every minute of it."
5. He hunts lizards and then keeps them as petsAccording to IMDb, Haley Joel Osment is "a big-time lover of lizards," and the actor confirmed his lifelong fascination with the creatures during his AMA. "I used to catch fence lizards (growing up in California) with a bamboo pole and humanely snare (only catch-and-release!) [them]," he wrote. "Then I got serious at age 8 and got a leopard gecko. They are great pets if you're into reptiles." Amazingly, he still has the gecko. Its name is Pete.
Although Osment declined to talk about this viral video, he did reveal that his favorite kind of pie is pumpkin.

More Make Swords Picks
How to Make a Paper Master Sword
The Master Sword serves as the legendary sword of Hyrule's hero in "The Legend of Zelda" video game series. Only individuals whose hearts are filled with goodness and valor can wield the Master Sword. Fortunately, fans of the series can create a paper replica of the hero Link's blade. Players should refer to imagery of the Master Sword throughout all of the "Zelda" games to create the version of the blade they prefer.
How to Make a Trojan Sword Out of Cardboard
Kids, and even some adults, like to have play sword fights. Because of the constant contact play swords get, they can wear out quickly. Using cardboard to make a Trojan sword is a good craft project for parents and kids. These swords are inexpensive to construct and make use of recycling. Make several swords at one time to give you spares. Use cardboard Trojan swords as party favors for boys' birthday parties, for props for school plays or at Halloween.
How to Make a Sword Out of a Yard Stick
You may never be a swashbuckler, warrior, samurai or anyone else who wields a sword, but you can certainly dress and act like one. This is fun at Halloween, or just as a way to pass an afternoon. However, you probably do not want to carry, or use, a real sword. A yardstick is the perfect size for a pretend sword, and if more than one person has one, you can carefully hold pretend duels with your friends.
How to Make a Children's Sword
Homemade swords make great accessories for Halloween pirate costumes or weapons for children's play fights. Swords made from cardboard and duct tape are safe, cheap, quickly made disposable toys. Enlist your kids' help to make a batch for a pirate-themed birthday party, and let the guests try their swashbuckling abilities in a big free-for-all outside. Materials for multiple swords cost only a couple of dollars, and each sword takes just five minutes to make. Make longer-lasting toy swords for older children from PVC pipe and foam.
How to Make a Styrofoam Sword
Every little prince, pirate and knight deserves his own Excalibur. However, every mom needs to know sword fights are safe and fun experiences. Craft a Styrofoam sword for your little man to ensure safe, creative play on the backyard battlefield. Find large Styrofoam sheets at your local craft store to design a lightweight sword that any little boy would be thrilled to wield.
How to Make a Strong Foam Sword
Whether you're making a sword for a child's costume or just for children to play with, it is important that you make sure the item is safe. One way to ensure safety is to make the sword out of foam. Foam is a soft, fairly durable material that is easy to work with and safe for your children to play with. However, if you want the sword to last longer than one play session, you need to make it strong.
How to Make a Newspaper Sword
Make a newspaper sword as an accessory for a Halloween pirate costume or a disposable toy made from recycled materials. Newspaper swords cost almost nothing, are quick to create and are unlikely to hurt anyone. This makes them ideal toys for the guests at a pirate-themed birthday party. Each sword will take just a couple of minutes to make once you've had a little practice.
How to Make a Fake Cardboard Sword
A sword is a necessary tool for any pretend knight or Viking. Using a sword to protect a family's honor during playtime is crucial to defeating an opponent. Make a fake cardboard sword to use during downtime your children. Create the sword with cardboard that is about 1/4-inch thick to make it sturdy and strong enough for everyday battle during leisure time with the kids.

If you have the source code for the grid then it is possible. The

Our stay was very enjoyable - thanks to Bridget and Anita and their very professional and friendly handling! The apartment was comfortable, clean and satisfied all our needs. It is located in a quiet area, bus service is needed. Bathroom is rather small and without windows.
We had a very pleasant stay in New York, this also thanks to the services of Bridget. The apartment is well situated, you can easily walk to Central Park and the musea there. The Starbucks is right around the corner, so there is always quality coffee and a brownie. the neighborhood was quiet, relaxed and felt as a safe place to go to! We enjoyed it very much and will surely choose this apartment again the next time!
A lovely apartment in a beautiful, quiet part of New York. Within walking distance of the Metropolitain and Central Park. Nice reception, Well stocked refrigerator. Definitely a place to go back to!

Erie man jailed on drug charges
An Erie man was jailed this morning on charges of possessing and distributing what investigators called "medical-grade" marijuana.
Richard Randall, 39, of the 1300 block of West Ninth Street, was placed in the Erie County Prison on $25,000 bond after he was arraigned by Erie 2nd Ward District Judge Paul Urbaniak on charges of possession with intent to deliver marijuana, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Members of the Erie County District Attorney's Drug Task Force said they seized about a pound and a half of marijuana, with an estimated street value of $8,000 to $9,000, during searches of Randall's residence and vehicle on Monday.
The search and seizures were part of an ongoing drug investigation, authorities said today.

PHILADELPHIA – A half-century has passed since the Phillies have had an All-Star Game MVP - their only one!
Maybe second baseman Chase Utley, their lone All-Star this year, will pull it off Tuesday night when he starts for the National League in the midsummer classic.
Or maybe not: Utley was just 2-for-9 with no extra-base hits and no RBIs in his first five All-Star Games.
Regardless, Phillies players have provided a lot of great All-Star memories over the years.
We've narrowed the list down to 10:
Right field
Date: July 7, 1964
Site: Shea Stadium
Result: NL 7-4
Details: Callison is the Phillies' one and only All-Star Game MVP. He topped 30 homers and 100 RBIs twice and is one of the Phillies' most popular players ever, but most remembered for hitting the last All-Star Game walk-off homer. On a 1964 NL squad that had 13 future Hall of Famers, Callison hit one of the most dramatic homers in All-Star history. With the game tied 4-4 in the bottom of the ninth at Shea, which was in its debut season, Callison blasted a three-run, game-winning blast to right off Dick Radatz after Hank Aaron whiffed for the second out. This was the third of four career All-Star Games for Callison. He also was on the NL squad in 1965, but didn't get into the game.
Third baseman
Date: Aug. 9, 1981
Site: Cleveland Stadium
Result: NL 5-4
Details: Schmidt deserved to be the MVP in one of the most memorable All-Star Games ever, as this was Major League Baseball's first game back after players were on strike from June 12 to July 31. Expos catcher Gary Carter was named MVP for a two-homer performance, but Schmidt was the big hero with a dramatic eighth-inning homer that turned a 4-3 NL deficit into a 5-4 lead that held up. In a confrontation between future Hall of Famers, Schmidt went deep against Brewers reliever Rollie Fingers. He also doubled in the sixth inning in going 2-for-4.
Right-handed reliever
Date: July 11, 1995
Site: The Ballpark in Arlington; Arlington, Texas
Details: The Phillies closer in 1995, Slocumb was the winning pitcher in his only All-Star Game, joining just two others in franchise history – closer Doug Jones in 1994 and Ken Raffensberger in 1944. Slocumb came on in the bottom of the seventh with two on and one out in a tie game, then pitched out of trouble by striking out Ivan Rodriguez and Jim Edmonds. After Jeff Conine hit a tie-breaking homer for the NL in the visiting eighth, Slocumb returned to get the first out of the home eighth before leaving after allowing a one-out single to Tino Martinez.
Left-handed pitcher
Date: July 11, 1944
Site: Forbes Field, Pittsburgh
Result: NL 7-1
Details: A most unlikely All-Star, Raffensberger allowed just one hit working scoreless fourth and fifth innings, then became the first of three Phillies winning pitchers in an All-Star Game. A left-handed forkball specialist, Raffensberger compiled a 119-154 record over a 15-year career, and in 1944, his only All-Star season, he had a 13-20 record with a 3.06 ERA, the 20 losses leading the majors. Raffensberger was the Phils' lone All-Star in '44, a season in which the team went 61-92 for its 12th of what would become 16 consecutive losing seasons from 1933-48.
Right-handed pitcher
Date: July 7, 1964
Site: Shea Stadium
Result: NL 7-4
Details: Sixteen days after famously pitching a Father's Day perfect game at Shea, Bunning returned to work two shutout innings in an All-Star Game made memorable by one of his Phillies teammates. Before Callison's game-winning homer, Bunning entered in the fourth with the NL trailing 1-0 and left after the fifth with his team leading 3-1. The Hall of Famer wasn't perfect this time, but he struck out four in his short outing, including Bobby Richardson to end the fourth with two runners aboard. Bunning was in line for the win until Phillies teammate Chris Short followed him to the mound in the sixth inning and promptly allowed two runs.
Left-handed pitcher
Date: July 8, 1952
Site: Shibe Park, Philadelphia
Result: NL 3-2, 5 innings (rain)
Details: Pitching in his home ballpark, Simmons allowed no runs working the final three innings of a rain-shortened All-Star Game. He faced 11 AL batters and retired everyone except for AL leadoff hitter Dom DiMaggio, who walked in the first inning and doubled in the third. This was the first of three All-Star Games for Simmons, who is fondly remembered by older Phillies fans for winning 17 games as a 21-year-old for the 1950 pennant-winning Whiz Kids.
Right-handed pitcher
Date: July 14, 1953
Site: Crosley Field, Cincinnati
Result: NL 5-1.
Details: Roberts was roughed up in a couple All-Star Games, allowing four runs over three innings twice, but the Hall of Famer set the tone for the NL's victory in '53. Starting for the NL, Roberts worked three shutout innings, allowing just one hit and one walk. The game was still scoreless when Roberts exited in the bottom of the third for a pinch-hitter, Hall of Famer Ralph Kiner.
Center fielder
Date: July 10, 1951
Site: Briggs Stadium, Detroit
Result: NL 8-3
Details: Ashburn is a Hall of Famer who was at his best in his six All-Star Games with six hits in 10 career at-bats. The Hall of Famer was 2-for-4 in this one with a double, walk and two runs scored for the NL, which won for the second year in a row after dropping 12 of the first 16 All-Star Games. Ashburn led off the game with a double against Ned Garver and scored the first run on an error.
Right-handed pitcher
Date: July 9, 2002
Site: Miller Park, Milwaukee
Result: 7-7 tie, 11 innings
Details: The '02 All-Star Game infamously is remembered for ending in a tie because the teams ran out of available pitchers, but Padilla's two scoreless innings were a key to the NL's All-Star record being 0-12-1 from 1997-2009 instead of 0-13. The NL's last 10th and final pitcher in the game, Padilla allowed no hits and just one walk working the 10th and 11th innings. A Nicaraguan, Padilla was acquired by the Phillies from Arizona in a July 2000 trade that sent ace Curt Schilling to the Diamondbacks. He arrived with a tag that he was the Phillies' closer of the future, but was switched to starter and had two strong seasons before two seasons of struggles led to a December 2005 trade to Texas.
Right-handed pitcher
2011: Chase Field, Phoenix
Result: NL 5-1.
Details: Starting for the NL in his eighth and final All-Star Game, Halladay retired all six batters that he faced in working two perfect innings. Halladay didn't get the victory, but the NL prevailed for its second win in a row after going 0-12-1 over the previous 13 seasons.

Netter had his eyes focused on the television, but couldn't help glancing toward his phone, waiting for it a call.
With each passing selection in the draft's final day, Netter's nerves began to build; his hopes were fading.
"I would just describe it as a really long day," Netter said. "The draft was really unpredictable, you really have no clue whether you're going to get drafted."
When the Indianapolis Colts made the final selection of the draft, Netter's phone had yet to ring. The feeling of disappointment set in, as he was not selected. However, that didn't last long.
Netter's phone began to ring; several unfamiliar area codes were calling. Numerous NFL teams enquired about his services. Finally, he received a phone call from a local number. Netter's longtime favorite team, the San Francisco 49ers, offered the lineman a dream possibility.
On the other line was Justin Chabot, a scout with the 49ers, who -- like Netter -- was a captain of the Northwestern football team, back in 1996. One decorated Wildcat expressed faith in another. Netter was given the chance to sign with San Francisco.
Netter also spoke on the phone with 49ers' offensive line coach Tim Drevno, who coached with Northwestern head coach Pat Fitzgerald at Idaho in 2000.
Shortly after, Netter made a phone call giving the news to one of his biggest fans, his 87-year-old grandmother, who happens to be a longtime 49ers season-ticket holder.
"When I called her and told her the news, she was crying and so excited for me," Netter said. "It's cool for her, she's 87 years old, still a huge football fan."
Netter spoke with his former head coach at Northwestern, who offered up some advice.
"Coach Fitzgerald is very excited for me and my family," said Netter. "He just gave me advice to work your butt off. Camp is going to be tough, you just have to prepare and be ready to go."
As an undrafted free-agent signing, Netter likely has an uphill battle to make the 49ers' 53-man roster, but he is eager to take advantage of his chance.
"I just wanted to go to a place where I had a good opportunity to make a roster and continue my career," Netter said. "It just happened to be my hometown team."

Age: Jeff Preval
Current position: Centre County News Reporter
Family: Mom, Joan, and Dad, Eddy; two sisters: Betsy and Christy
Hometown: Arlington, Mass.
High school: Arlington High School, 2003
College: Hofstra University, Hempstead, N.Y., 2007
My first job in TV: WTAJ
How I landed in my present job: I was working at a start-up station in Centre County. After a little time there, I applied to WTAJ and was granted an interview. Since then, I'm sure you can guess the rest.
My earliest influences in TV were: Bob Costas, Ahmad Rashad, Sean McDonough (Red Sox Television Network), and Tommy Heinsohn (Celtics legend).
The most interesting person I ever interviewed was: In college, I had the chance to interview a man who escaped slavery in Sudan. He came to the U.S. and taught himself English. He now fights to improve conditions in many African nations.
What I like best about my job: The ability to cover news and inform people everyday.
How the TV business has changed: More people have more roles and more responsibility. As a reporter, I am researching, writing, editing, shooting and online all the time. I think more newsrooms are going into this direction. ... It can be fun, challenging and rewarding.
Advice I could give to someone interested in making TV a career: Start as early as you can in getting experience. This includes, internships, newspapers, radio, TV, online, etc. Try to do as much in college so when you start trying to get a job you have a feel for what you can do. Even as a young professional, continue to learn, read and know a lot.

Welcome. Don't worry about writing too much. We are interested and the more you tell us, the more ideas we can share with you.
Now that I've started this journal, I feel all shy and exposed . I've been reading MDA for awhile and finally decided to go wholeheartedly into the lifestyle.
About me, where to begin....I posted a bit in the Meet and Greet awhile back, but now I have a chance to truly bore people with the wonderfulness that is me and my life.
I've been fat for most of my life, except for the first three years and for a few months after my first semester of college I've always been at least 20 pounds overweight and at most 190 pounds over. I've been a vegetarian twice, "done" low-carb twice and everything else more times to count. For years my weight was just vanity. I was the fat child of thin parents and in the '70s and '80s pretty much no one was overweight. So my self-esteem took a lot of hits. It wasn't until recently that my weight became an obvious health risk. More on that in a bit.
I'm the married mom of 3 children a 21 year old son that is following my footsteps. He played football in high school, but gave up on sports to concentrate on his education and has gained quite a bit of weight. I have a five year old son and a 4 year old daughter and so far they are both within the normal weight range, but I know they're no where near as healthy as they should be. My DH has gotten thicker since we've been together and right now he's heavier than he'd like to be. All in all, he and my oldest think this is just one of my things. I am determined to show them otherwise.
I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes with my 5 year old and then developed high blood pressure which necessitated an emergency c-section. I was placed on insulin with my daughter and was on blood pressure meds and bed rest to keep things in check. You'd think that would be enough to cause a radical shift in my path, but no. I lost 80 pounds after my daughter was born pretty effortlessly...I couldn't tell you what I did besides breastfeed. But, because I didn't really change anything it all came back plus a bit.
Fast forward to last September, I was diagnosed as a full fledged type two diabetic and by December I had trace amounts of protein in my urine. Needless to say I freaked out. However, instead of trying a reasonable approach to my health I opted for weight loss surgery. I won't say I completely regret my surgery, but I do wish I'd gotten on the primal bandwagon and stayed there before going under the knife.
On February 28th I had a procedure called the gastric sleeve that removed a good portion of my stomach. I weighed 295 going into the hospital and as of this morning I weighed 239. I'm no longer on diabetes meds and my kidneys are holding stable. I move more now and actually enjoy it, I really do feel better.
So, long story short (I know, too late!) I needed to find something that will get and keep me healthy and prevent the weight regain that so many weight loss surgery people succumb to. I've replaced my obsession with surgery and weight loss with learning about nutrition and health and this site, along with so many others in the same vein just make sense.
Hopefully my husband and oldest will follow me, the little ones have less of a choice . I'll post my measurements later along with what I've eaten today. If you made it all the way thru this post, my hat's off to you!

Primal Blueprint Explorer My blog for people who are not into the Grok thing. Since starting the blog, I have moved close to being Archevore instead of Primal. But Mark's Daily Apple is still the best source of information about living an ancestral lifestyle.
Here's how my first day shaped up foodwise:
1 extra large egg over easy
1 sausage patty
4 oz avocado
Shrimp w/ Thai red curry sauce over stir fried broccoli slaw
1.5 ounces of mixed veg (asparagus, mushrooms and onions)
5 olives
1 snack sized cheese
an eighth cup dry roasted macadamia nuts
1 grilled chicken drumstick
.5 cup roasted broccoli
A grand total of 956 cal
27 g carb
73 g fat
50 g protein
For movement:
half an hour on the elliptical (not my torture device of choice, I prefer walking but I was working out with a friend
some light weight work, planks, sit-ups, squats...just a few of each 'cause I'm weak as a kitten.
I think the biggest problem I'm going to have is eating enough to get my nutrients in with my decreased stomach capacity. I think I'm going to have to add protein shakes. I also definitely need to get some other supplements, I've got some salmon oil from costco that I'll take this evening and some calcium w/ D3 so far.
Welcome! I am also a married Mom of three. I know what you mean about other people in the family thinking this is "just one of your things". By the time I was introduced to Primal, even I didn't trust myself to lose and keep off the weight. My husband is shocked at how long I have been faithful to Primal and my amazing results.
It looks as if you did well with the food. Try to supplement Magnesium Chelate in addition to D and Omega 3. There is a powdered Mag product called Natural Calm which may be easier for you to take than a pill.
If you experience extreme tiredness. Drink a cup of full salt bouillon - your electrolytes may be unbalanced due to fluid loss.
I'm not sure what your limitations are due to the surgery. Some of this advice may not work for you. Good Luck!
PS Don't worry about perfection, if you read my journal you will see that I have done well even though I am not always perfectly Primal.

Geez, these last few days flew by! Thank you for the encouraging words and the magnesium suggestions. I could really get into something called Natural Calm . Foodwise I've been doing ok, I found out (I should say, re-found out) that I cannot, absolutely cannot do white rice....it turns me into a carb fiending freak. Lesson relearned, for the last time.
Yesterday was a glorious carnivore day. A while back I'd stumbled onto some lamb riblets at the store and some beef shanks. Whipped up some cumin yogurt cheese and was loving it. That along with some barbacoa and some deviled eggs rounded out my day. Totally calories clocked in at 1008, with 11 grams of carbs, 93 grams of fat and 71 of protein. I need to work on more veg carbs, I think, maybe....
The other things I really need to work on are getting more movement, I'm far too lazy. School starts for me and the kidlets next week giving my days more order and that will help. In reality, I just to stop making excuses and get off my fluffy butt.
Sleep is another huge issue. I'm getting a sleep mask to help with the light. The kids and my DH are bit more problematic. My son is going through an afraid of the dark nightmare phase. He wakes up at least once every night.....My husband on the other hand has never been a sleeper and he feels that the only time we can spend together is late at night. Late for me that is.
So, that's where I stand today so far. I've got a lot of things to work on....
So, I slacked off on my journal almost immediately . Then I saw the post about the 2011 Challenge, so I jumped back on the wagon.
From a primal viewpoint today wasn't the best...I was too busy and stressed to eat a real meal, as close as I got was 2 oz of meat, a quarter cup of french cut green beans cooked in butter and 3 olives. I'm just home from school and need to go to bed, but I'm probably going to stay up another half hour to drink some water.
For the mini-contest, I pledged to be consistent with my eating. I don't plan meals really and consequently I end up with days like today where I just don't get to it. I don't mind the not eating...I do mind being hungry. It kinda sucks.
On a happy note, my oldest is sorta doing the challenge with me. He ate some rice with dinner and some bunless fast food burgers (in n out), not perfect but I thought he'd forget. I know that if he even halfway tries he'll see a huge improvement in so many ways.
Looking forward to what tomorrow will bring.

Nearly 23 tons of drugs safely thrown out in "take-back" program
State officials announced on Friday that the public dropped off nearly 23 tons of unwanted, expired or unused prescription drugs at 180 collections sites across the state last month.
Last year at two "take-back" prescription drug days, 30.1 million tons of drugs were dropped off, according to the State Department of Justice.
The take-back service is free and anonymous.
By dropping off the drugs, it keeps them from being flushed down toilets or throw into landfills, according to the Department of Natural Resources.
Only 2% of household medicine is safely disposed
Wisconsin's voluntary take-back program for household pharmaceuticals is "insufficient and unsustainable" and succeeds in collecting only 2% of all the available waste medicines in Wisconsin, a new report says.
With little medicine recycled, the report said much of the rest is getting flushed down toilets, thrown in the trash or left in cabinets.
The report by the University of Wisconsin Extension and the Product Stewardship Institute estimated that 13.1 million pounds medicines were sold in 2010, ranging from aspirin to prescription narcotics. »Read Full Blog Post(13)

KINGS BEACH, Calif. — Those needing food, legal advice and family assistance can soon access these services and more under one roof at the Kings Beach Community House.
"If you're in a crisis, often times you need more than one thing, so the benefit is not to have to tell your story over and over again," said Stacy Caldwell, CEO of the Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation, a project partner. "(With the Community House) you don't finish with one agency and suddenly you're referred to another one across town, and now you've got to drive there and start the process all over again."
The Kings Beach Community House at 265 Bear St., at the corner of Trout Avenue and Bear Street, will house satellite offices for Tahoe SAFE Alliance, North Tahoe Family Resource Center and Project MANA, along with space for other nonprofits.
The hope is for the building to open sometime in December, said Caldwell, who spoke inside the unfinished service center before about 60 officials and community members at a ribbon-cutting ceremony Monday afternoon.
Work remaining includes installation of drywall, carpet and lighting, along with painting, she said.
"Our vision for the Community House is for it to become a welcoming place, a gathering place, and a place where solutions are created," said Patti Boxeth, former board chair of TTCF. "… Let's help families move away from crisis and into self-reliance and resilience."
Along with crisis services, Community House will offer classes, informal support groups, enrichment classes, career and family counseling and public meeting spaces.
"It really is the culmination of a lot of people's visions to make not just Kings Beach, but Placer County — eastern Placer County — a better place to live, a healthier place to live and an easier place to live for those folks who need the services the Community House is going to offer," said Jennifer Montgomery, District 5 supervisor for Placer County.
To date, more than $2 million has been raised for the $2.2 million project through a mix of public Transient Occupancy Tax funds — a North Lake Tahoe lodging charge paid by visitors who stay fewer than 30 days — private foundations and individual donations.
Besides giving money, people have offered time and services, saving the capital campaign more than $1 million, Caldwell said.
"I'm incredibly impressed with what this community can accomplish when they put their mind to it, and this has been a true community effort," she said.
Caldwell said she's confident the remaining $170,000 can be raised through private donations.
To donate, call TTCF's office at 530-587-1776 or visit its website, www.ttcf.net.
"We will take whatever you can give," Caldwell said. "… We will get it done together, and we're really looking forward to when we can invite (the community) back here for the grand opening."

Camtasia Studio is a powerful screencasting tool that makes it easy to record what's happening on your PC, convert the results into a polished presentation, then share it with the world.
The program has many applications. You could use it to create a demo of your latest software, for instance. Or a technical support clip showing people how to perform some complicated PC task. Camtasia Studio can record your performance in many games, so you can show off your skills. And it's even able to save a local copy of a streaming video clip, complete with audio.
Capturing is straightforward. Choose the size or window you'd like to capture, click the Record button and carry out whatever actions you need. Press [F10] when you're finished and Camtasia Studio will convert your screen activity into a movie.
A wide range of editing options will then help to change your rough cut into something more professional. You're able to insert title pages, apply captions, include photos or video clips, add a soundtrack, and more. It's easy to highlight cursor movements and mouse clicks to help people see what you're doing, or, if you prefer, you can have Camtasia Studio zoom in on important areas. It's even possible to add graphics with clickable links that will take viewers to another part of the video, or an external web page.
When you've finished, Camtasia Studio can export your movie to many different formats: MP4, FLV, SWF, MPV, AVI, Silverlight-compatible WMV, MOV, RM, even animated GIF or MP3. Or, if you prefer, the program will upload your movie directly to YouTube or Screencast.com, TechSmith's own video hosting service.

To the editor:
I am writing this letter to take issue with a letter that appeared in Thursday's Sentinel.
Mr. Molek's letter deals with President Obama's recent decision to not deport innocent young people. The new rules apply to innocent young people that have been in the United States for much of their lives and consider the United States their home. This is a temporary two year change to the rules for deportation. It is not an amnesty program. The new rules are explicit. The young person must have entered the United States prior to being 16 years of age. The person can be no more than 30 years old. They must have resided in the United States for at least five years. They must either be in school, or have graduated from one of our schools and be working. In addition, those that are currently members of the United States military or have been honorably discharged from the military will not be deported.
Mr. Molek is our district attorney. He should have a deep and abiding respect for the law. However, the law is not always right. Our federal laws supported the institution of slavery until 1864. Federal and state law generally did not support a woman's right to vote until 1919. In addition, laws in many of our states kept blacks from voting until 1964. President Obama hasn't changed the law. This is a two year temporary ban designed to protect innocent young people. Hopefully Congress will catch up with President Obama and pass a comprehensive immigration law before the temporary change expires.
Mr. Molek asserts that President Obama is "not doing his job" and sent a message "to the American people that it knows best which laws should be enforced and which ones should be ignored." A recent Bloomberg poll indicated that about two thirds of Americans do not support the deportation of innocent young people. President Obama's message to the American people is that he agrees with them.
When compassion for innocent people conflicts with the law, Americans should be compelled to evaluate the law. Laws that punish innocent people should be changed. When congress doesn't do its job by changing the law, changing the way the law is enforced is a legitimate alternative.

JB Therapeutics, a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company, is developing JBT-101 a nanomolar cannabinoid agonist which activates the CB2 receptor present on immune cells and fibroblasts. Upon binding CB2, JBT-101 stimulates the production of specific lipid mediators (PGJ2, LXA4) which act to turn off inflammation and fibrosis. The product is a pharmaceutical capsule containing a pure synthetic derivative of THC with minimal blood brain barrier penetration. It is currently being developed as a potential disease modifying treatment for the orphan disease scleroderma.
Jounce Therapeutics is a private company launched in 2013 and based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The company is dedicated to transforming the treatment of cancer by focusing on the discovery and development of first-in-class cancer immunotherapies designed to work not by treating a patient's tumor directly, but instead by harnessing the patient's immune system to seek out and attack cancerous cells and tumors.

These are my favorite shoes. I walk about 15,000 steps per day, and these shoes make them comfortable steps. They're very lightweight. I have them in black, and I love the pink detail. I only use them for casual use, not for running. ... read more
Love the gray! Very easy to get on and off. By the picture, the laces look like straps but they are tie laces. The thicker laces make it look cool. I have a very high arch so not much support there to be used for running or extensive training. Overall a very good sneaker for everyday use. ... read more
I love love love these shoes. They are smaller than the picture makes them look, but in the best way possible. they are extremely comfortable, much like walking on memory foam. the arch support is outstanding. Two things that did not bother me but might be a problem for others: 1.) the mesh is very thin. if you are looking for a shoe to wear in the winter, this is probably not for you 2. the back does come up very high. i can definitely see how this might be problematic/a cause for blisters for some people. i have a pretty arched tendon back there so it's not a problem at all for me. Another thing to note, the bottom mesh is not connected to the sole in the middle. this is not a problem at all it's just not something i noticed before purchasing. (Also the aglets are pink and blue) Overall, this is probably my favorite sneaker i've ever purchased. i looove these shoes! ... read more
These shoes are so comfortable!! They silhouette on them is feminine and cool. A coworker of mine actually walked by and doubled back to peek his head into my work space to tell me he liked them the first day I wore them. ... read more
15 yr old got blisters on back of ankles, she wanted to see if she could get used to but the shoe ripped within 2 weeks just wearing around school so we sent it back. Sad because she loved them and would've been comfortable besides blisters, they just come up to high in the back. ... read more
Perfection -- I've worn the original Ultraboost or the UltraboostST in my past three marathons. Something made be decide to try #uncaged. BEST. SHOE. EVER. Has everything the others do in cushion but my entire foot has truly found its happy place -- also affords much better opportunity for ankle flexion ... same sole as the other models which do fine in rain (e.g. BOS 2015). I'm sure I'll have to get a pair in red too! ... read more
These trainers are the best! I love the fit, the colors are exactly as shown. The feeling of a snugly-fitting sock is amazing - like wearing slippers in the gym. The floating arch is such a nice touch and the feeling is great - your foot is never 'hanging' in the air, it is supported 100% of the time, regardless of the motion you are performing. All in all - my best purchase so far. ... read more
Exactly as stated under opinion. I don't like your survey format. Review & opinion same thing. Had to misspell my nick name for it to be excepted & now I am rambling on just to satisfy your 50 letter requirement ... read more
Great shoe! I go through shoes pretty quickly when training (usually around 50 miles per week), but these have held up so well. Highly recommend! I've ran in an older model and remember wearing a US 7.5, but for some reason, I had to order a full size down in these. Perhaps it's because I purchased them in France (even though the US size was marked on the shoe as 6.5)...? Not sure, but definitely try them on, just to be sure. ... read more
I was really sad because after only wearing two times the material on the prime knit on the toe box of the shoe stretched. I didn't even snag it and now it just looks really ugly because there is a big HOLE from the prime knit material and very noticeable because the shoe is white (probably wouldn't be so bad on a dark shoe like black. Very upsetting for a $180 shoe. ... read more
I own 3 pairs of these shoes. I love my first 2 pairs that have more of the cloth type material. It stretches just enough but fits my foot like a glove. My 3rd pair I don't really care for. The top is the mesh material. It is to stretchy and my foot feels like I have zero support on the sides. I love the elevated arch and boost. I feel like I'm walking on air. I wish they would put some piece of support at the toes because when I where them to the gym my feet slide forward with circuit training. I know there are trainers similar to these but I tried them and didn't love them. I hope they make another pair black and white mix for the fall. Mine from last year are the favorite pair of tennis shoes I've ever owned! ... read more
I love these shoes! They are extremely comfortable and stylish. I'm usually an 8.5 but in all my running shoes I am an 8, so that is what I purchased in this pair and the fit is perfect! Love the white color although it has a bit of tan in it, just to know as a heads up incase you're really looking for a stark white shoe. ... read more
When I tried these on at a running store, I decided to buy them even though they were heavier than I wanted because I was told they would last for more miles because of the rubber outersole and UB cushioning. I was very disappointed that at after 3 months of wear that the rubber sole has worn off the back outside rim of each shoe. My normal running shoes last longer than that. Whil The shoes are good for running and fit like a glove, but I would have opted for lighter, less expensive option if knew they were going to last the same amount of time. ... read more
Very comfortable and chic! I love wearing them to my workouts as well as casually since they're so stylish! I purchased the black one and absolutely love them! They run a little bit so if you usually go 1/2 size up for running shoes I suggest you don't with these. ... read more
I love these shoes, they have everything I could ask for style and comfort. Just ordered them in white and plan to order a few more different colors. Scotchguard is a must if you want to keep them clean. ... read more
I just bought this today at store. Love this shoes so much. One of the most comfortable shoes I've had. The middle part hold my feet so nice. I want to buy another pair differeny colors..waiting until sale ..hehe ... read more
I love the look and feel of this shoe and was so excited to try them on the first time. Based on other people's reviews I went a 1/2 size up and ordered a 9 when I'm usually an 8.5. They were WAY too big. Had to return them and now I'm not sure if I should order an 8.5 or go all the way down to an 8. ... read more
I always go with Adidas shoes, and was super excited when I ordered these. But they were really uncomfortable. Other Adidas I never even had to 'break in', but these didn't get any less comfortable with wear. I first tried walking around town and my calves got sore, I ran and my soles got sore quick, I boxed and the floating arch support felt like no support at all. My ankles were slipping and hurting so bad after one workout. I'll be returning and trying another style. I still love Adidas for style and comfort, but this one wasn't for me. ... read more
I absolutely love these shoes! I had surgery on my right ankle last November and I have noticed a huge difference in my walk. It makes my foot feel very stable and balanced. They almost have a bouncy like feel to them in the heel and they are super light. I'd say the only thing I really don't like are the 3 stripes design on the top of the foot, but other than that they're super cute aswell! So glad I purchased, these are worth every penny in my opinion. ... read more
Arch Perfection but...the back comes up so high that it gave me blisters after wearing for 2 hours! I have high arches so I loved the arch support but sadly I will need to return due to the back. So bummed! ... read more
These are the best running shoes I've ever worn. I've logged a lot of miles and those I've logged in these have been the most enjoyable by far. I've recommended these shoes to multiple friends and will continue to do so. ... read more
I wanted to love these shoes as my last pair of addidas were my favorite shoes I've ever had. I have narrow but long feet, size 11. These fit true to size and actually hugged the width of my feet which Is so hard to find because most shoes Are too wide. Two drawbacks... Because of the mesh fabric-like construction the fit stretches. It doesn't fit as snug as when I bought them which I need Bc now my foot will actually twist or slide off the sole of the shoe when trying to do some classes and moves. Actually it worries me that I could injur my foot. Also, they are NOISY!!! I know, that sounds rediculous. Seriously though, every step is like a very loud squeak! In the gym you can hear me coming from the other side of it. I would not buy them again for that reason. It's that bothersome. Does anyone else have that problem? I'm sure it's the foam soles which I know are also the higher end selling point of these and what makes them so comfortable. I literally take them off before walking past my little girls room at night so I don't wake her. They are that loud on the wood floors at home. Somewhat laughable but annoying enough to keep me from buying them again esp at their price point. I'll go back to my previous addidas. ... read more
I love these shoes because they're super comfy while also on trend. I purchased the white/red color which look more tan/off white/red, but I actually like the color more than I did in the picture. They're very versatile and can be paired with jeans, shorts, or athletic gear. I purchased for casual wear but they're so comfy that I plan to make them my go to running shoes ... read more
The product looks nice and feels nice for the most part, however the back of the shoe comes up so high on the ankle it has given me and many of my friends blisters and the whole shoe becomes uncomfortable to wear after a few hours ... read more
I usually wear a 5.5-6 in athletic shoes and took a 5.5 in these Pureboost X. The fit is snug and soft. The floating arch is a cool feature and provides good support. I have a low arch in my left foot and a normal arch on my right, so I do get some cramping in my left foot if I am doing a plyo workout. After a short break-in period, I can now walk and run short distances without any problems. I did have a blister at my heel due to the higher back after the first time I wore them, but since then, that hasn't been a problem. The shoes seem to get dirty very easily, but that is a consequence of the light color scheme I got (light green/blue with pink sole). I've noticed a loose string though, and it's only been a month, so I am a little concerned about that. ... read more


text: you can do strength training on a low-carb, primal diet. plenty of us do it. if you're looking to add muscle mass you can add primal-friendly carbs like sweet or white potatoes, turnips, squashes, etc. (yes, those foods are fine...though eat them in moderation if you're looking to lose). however, it sounds like you are interested in getting stronger and losing fat. for that, all you need to do is eat primal (buy the book and really explore this website), lift heavy things (try following a progressive program like Primal Blueprint Fitness, Starting Strength or Stronglifts...you won't bulk up unless you want to), and sprint. you may find yourself low on energy for a little while, but that will go away and exercising will help.

The apartment was absolutely fantastic, it is equipped with everything that you need and the cleanliness was exemplary.
The apartments are also located in a very central place and you are local to all the sights the city has to offer. We struggled to get in to the apartment one night at 3.00am & called the Landlord he was available to help us. (we are very very sorry about that!!) I would definitely stay in these apartments again and would recommend them to friends and family.
