Midway Chicago Cutting Back On Staff Following Completion Of Major Titles
Troubled publisher says layoffs are part of the normal reevaluation of staffing levels following a major project.
It hasn't been an easy ride for Midway over the past couple years. With its major holiday releases finished and out the door, it's not surprise that more rumors of layoffs have hit the beleagured publisher. After some initial concerns though, they look to be fairly routine.
Kotaku is reporting that an "anonymous but reliable source" says that between 20 and 30 employees have been laid off from Midway's Chicago studio. For their part, Midway chalked it up to the standard reevalution of "appropriate staffing levels and team composition" following a major release. In this case, Blitz: The League 2 and the upcoming Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, which is launching November 16.
"A small number of employees here in Chicago have been impacted and others reassigned. No other changes are being made at this time," the Midway representative said. "Our Chicago studio will continue to be the home of the Mortal Kombat team, and we have several support groups and major prototype teams working in the facility as well."
Midway continues to battle unprofitability and low stock prices, with the majority of its holiday hopes pinned on MK vs. DC. Here's hoping that happier times are ahead for both the house that Mortal Kombat built, and those employees who had to be let go.

was the best game Midway has ever made IMO. Played that to death, and I'm a hardcore Street Fighter fan too. I don't know how it's like for you guys but in the arcades around me you're either the SF or the MK crowd and won't bother with the other. Anyways, Midway really need some new franchises. How bout merging Midway?
Reinvent yourself MidwayPosted: Nov 14, 2008 12:00AM PST by kid_atomic
Maybe stepping away from Blitz and MK and taking a chance on new game might pay off. You can only ride those coat tails for so long especially when your big plan is to add another giant license to your existing giant license to keep it alive. As far as MK goes Finish Him. They are two gimmicky early ninety franchises that have long surpassed their life expectancies as it is.

I really think that this model is pretty shitty. I mean, it helps up top because it cuts down on expenses and min-maxes everything, but still. This is the way most companies do it. They have a few people planning, hire a lot of development, then lay off for post-production and QA. Really, it would be more efficient if they had a smaller QA team during development and converted those who would be laid off to QA during post-production.

Shares of the ETF Powershares QQQ Trust (NASDAQ: QQQQ) declined 8.2% in the sell off that started January 20 and reaching a closing low of $42.79 on January 29. Is the selling over?
After two days of higher prices, Powershares QQQ has regained 2.0%.
Most corrections, assuming this is only a correction, play out in three waves. So far there has been only one wave down, Wave A, and the rally on Monday and Tuesday of this week has not yet reached levels that we would define as a rising Wave B.
The Powershares QQQ may have more upside ahead, but we would then be looking for another wave down, Wave C, probably to at least the $40.45 level. This is 7.3% below Tuesday's close at $43.65.

"I loved the design for our wedding. The designer worked well to get the exact colors and layout that we wanted. Note, that the Glitter is an image and not actually glitter."
"Beautiful design printed on a quality textured paper stock. I fell in love with this card in lilac. So classy, so beautiful. It felt right...for all you brides, you know what I mean!"
"We ordered this based on the main design - which was something we have been looking for. We were able to adjust fonts and since my first name is short, the designer was able to adjust the format of the text to the right for a more "even" appearance. We also centered the info on the bottom. We ordered this in the pearl in standard matte and the paper quality is amazing. The color is like a lighter ivory. I would have ordered in shimmer paper to allow for the polka dots to have a glittery appearance but it wasn't in the budget. It was definitely exciting for our invites to arrive and see them in real life! Thanks WPD!"
"We are so happy with how our wedding invitations turned out! I can't believe how much we love them. The colors are vibrant and elegant and are perfect for our Dallas rooftop wedding. I give this product 5 stars for sure and nothing less."
"We ordered this in blue, the wedding color and were thrilled! They are very simple, yet elegant and so appropriate for an outdoor blue wedding. Nice paper quality. Very happy."

James Gern, MD, Leads $15 Million Grant to Study How Environmental Exposures Affect Childhood AsthmaPosted: September 2016
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health a two-year, $15 million grant to establish and oversee the Children's Respiratory Research and Environment Workgroup (CREW) - a national consortium of 14 institutions that will study how genetics interact with environmental exposures during the prenatal and early childhood years to cause specific subtypes of childhood asthma.
The grant is part of $157 million in awards by the NIH that launches a seven-year initiative called Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO). The ECHO program will investigate how exposure to a range of environmental factors in early development – from conception through early childhood – influences the health of children and adolescents.
"Studies of children from single research centers have taught us that the environment during the prenatal period and in infancy greatly influences who develops asthma," said James Gern, MD, principal investigator of the study. "The CREW study and the overall ECHO program will for the first time enable information from multiple studies to be combined so that U.S. investigators working together can identify causes and develop new strategies to prevent severe childhood asthma."
Elizabeth Cox, MD, PhD, Releases PRISM Toolkit to Identify Type 1 Diabetes Self-Management Barriers
Elizabeth Cox, MD, PhD, director of the Program of Research on Outcomes for Kids (PROKids), has released a toolkit to support identification of type 1 diabetes self-management barriers for children and adolescents. The toolkit, Problem Recognition in Illness Self-Management (PRISM), includes two brief, validated surveys – one for 13-17 year-old adolescents and one for parents of youth ages 8-17 years. The PRISM surveys identify up to six barriers to self-management that youth and families may be experiencing.
The majority of youth with type 1 diabetes struggle to manage their condition, which can lead to life-threatening complications. There are multiple strategies to support successful diabetes self-management, so understanding the specific challenges faced by a youth and their family enable tailoring of the resources offered to individual needs. This type of tailored help shows promise in improving glycemic control and quality of life.
"Children with type 1 diabetes and their families face many challenges to controlling diabetes and maintaining good quality of life," Dr. Cox explained. "Our preliminary work suggests taking good care of diabetes can be easier when healthcare providers offer resources tailored to each family's specific needs."
The PRISM toolkit includes the two surveys, a manual for administration and scoring, and a workbook for automatic scoring of PRISM. It is available as a free download on the HIPxChange website.
Collaborative Funded to Improve Screening for Intimate Partner Violence
Dr. Elizabeth Cox, associate professor of pediatrics at UW-Madison, in collaboration with Laurie Thompsen, MSW (West Virginia Coalition Against Domestic Violence) and Dr. Danielle Davidov (West Virginia University), received a Tier 1 Eugene Washington Engagement Award from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute. This award will develop a collaborative focused on improving screening for intimate partner violence (IPV) in healthcare settings. Screening for IPV can increase identification by 133%, and both providers and patients, including victims, are generally supportive of screening. However, screening rates among physicians are low, and current practices are not effective.
As noted by the project team in their successful proposal, "Seven million US women and five million men experience IPV annually. Although the Affordable Care Act mandates coverage for screening to detect IPV, compliance with this mandate is hampered by lack of evidence about patient-centered screening methods."
The funding will support the establishment of crucial partnerships between health services researchers, IPV victims and survivors, and other stakeholders such as healthcare providers, policymakers, advocacy groups, and the criminal justice system. The collaborative aims to develop questions for further research regarding effective screening methods and an evidence base for addressing IPV in healthcare settings.

Anna Huttenlocher, MD Receives R35 Award from NIH
Anna Huttenlocher, MD was recently awarded a Maximizing Investigators' Research Award (R35) from National Institutes of Health/National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIH-NIGMS) worth over $2.9 million for 5 years, for her research entitled "Cell migration and wound repair." The focus of her research is to understand the basic molecular mechanisms that regulate cell migration and how defects in cell migration contribute to human disease in the context of tissue damage and repair. Understanding how wound repair is orchestrated and integrated at both the single cell and multi-cellular level in the context of different types of damage is the focus of her future research. She will address these questions using optogenetic tools, genomic approaches and advanced imaging in zebrafish and in vitro analysis using human cells.
Mario Otto, MD, PhD, Awarded Grant from Cannonball Kids' Cancer Foundation
Mario Otto, MD, PhD, was recently awarded a 3-year grant in the amount of $75,000 from Cannonball Kids' Cancer Foundation for his clinical trial entitled, "TCR-α/β+ and CD19+ depleted KIR/KIR ligand-mismatched Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant and Zoledronate for Pediatric Relapsed/Refractory Hematologic Malignancies and High Risk Solid Tumors." Funds from this award will be used in a clinical trial for children with relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies and high-risk solid tumors (such as rhabdomyosarcoma, neuroblastoma, Ewing sarcoma), utilizing haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation employing a novel, highly selective graft engineering process that removes unwanted cellular components (e.g., α/β T cells and B cells). The CEO, Ashley VanDerMark, and co-founder of Cannonball Kids', Melissa Wiggins, recently visited with Dr. Otto at his laboratory in Madison.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter 1 Can Christians Have Demons?
To deliverance ministers, the question, "Can Christians have demons?" is not even worth pondering. Experiences with thousands of deliverance sessions leave no doubt in my mind that Christians not only can, but do have demons. One famous teacher, Frank Hammond, says, "The question is not whether Christians can have demons, but rather, can I ever find a Christian without a demon?" People stand up during services and declare, "I don't have a demon!" Yet the demon of Pride is manifested all over their faces. I suspect that most opposition to deliverance comes out of either fear or pride. People who fear demons and the very thought of the devil don't want to be involved. To disguise that fear, they advance an array of doctrines or Scripture to prove either that demons do not exist, or that Christians cannot have them. If their fear is too great, no amount of persuasion will convince them otherwise. Pride comes in when a denomination or church has officially adopted a "no demons in Christians" stance. It's difficult to change doctrines or positions once you have taken a public stance. No one wants to admit errors in doctrine if it will threaten his reputation. "Face" becomes more important than truth. Occasionally, a church sits on the fence by declaring that Christians cannot have demons but conceding that demons can cling to the outside. A number of Scriptures are used to support the argument that Christians cannot have demons living in them. Some quote 2 Corinthians 6:14, which says, "What fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?" Actually, the Bible does not say it cannot happen. It merely says it should not happen. Jesus supped with publicans, and saints fellowship with unbelievers so that the light can defeat the darkness. Some saints reason that demons cannot live in the body because it is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 6:19). But we find that the temple in Old Testament days was divided into three main sections: outer court, Holy Place, and Holy of Holies. In Moses' tabernacle, anyone could enter the outer court, even foreigners. The Holy Spirit dwelt in the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies. Similarly, I believe that the Holy Spirit dwells in our spirits or hearts (Eph. 3:17; 2 Pet. 1:19), the demons in our bodies. In Acts 5:3, Peter said to Ananias, "why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost?" In Ezekiel, the prophet dug a hole in the wall of God's temple and found a door through which he entered. He saw "every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon the wall round about" (Ezek. 8:10). Demons existed in God's temple. Others claim that when we become Christians, we are cleansed of all demons. The Bible does not say that. It says that our sins are washed away by the blood, but does not mention demons. It is true, however, that demons cannot "possess" us. Unfortunately, the King James Version of the Bible uses an incorrect word. The correct word in the Greek is "demonization," or having demons. Possession implies total control. Demons cannot possess us, but we can possess demons. A quick fix for the issue is the contention that demons can only cling on from the outside. However, the Bible does not say that Jesus and the disciples "brushed off," "rubbed off," or "chased away" demons. Instead, the Bible consistently says, "cast out." "Cast out" clearly indicates that demons were "in." To get something out, it has to first be in. Theological arguments must give way to experience. Even scientists are known to abandon pet theories when actual experiences do not support them. Over 99% of the people I have delivered have been born-again tongue-speaking Christians, including many charismatic pastors. If you do not believe that Christians can have demons, I suggest you attend a number of deliverance sessions. Don't pass judgment until you have investigated the matter thoroughly. It is important to know the truth in these end times. If demons can reside in the human body, then they need to be cast out!

For most people, the month of February brings thoughts of flowers and candy for Valentine's Day. For me, February reminds me of one of my favorite movies, "Groundhog Day," in which Bill Murray relives Groundhog Day over and over until he learns to recognize his faults. I think many email marketers are in the same situation; performing the same action over and over, but expecting different results each time. Some would even say this is the definition of insanity. Marketers wonder why response rates are dropping, but are blind to the fact that they are sending the same non-targeted, irrelevant messages over and over again. Of course subscribers are losing interest; you are conditioning them to expect the same redundant email every time.
One online retailer I know of has sent 13 consecutive weekly emails with the same subject line. Here's a hint: if I wasn't enticed the first time, the 13th time probably won't convince me. This retailer does themselves no favors in a cluttered inbox. We know that consumers often save an email to go back to later when they are ready to shop. Make it easy by using distinctive subject lines for each message. Create distinctive offers as well. Using math to trick your customer into thinking they are getting a deal may initially drive sales, but after a while they'll catch on. No matter how many ways you change the percentage off, or offer free shipping, if the end result is $24.99 every time, customers will eventually stop looking for that "special" offer.
Another way marketers train customers to ignore emails is by sending too often. Seeing that email in the inbox each morning becomes routine. In most instances, people actually may want to receive all of those daily deal emails, but just skim the subject lines each day until they see an offer or brand that they may want, while deleting the rest without opening, and this can influence spam filters. So why not just ask what they want and segment based on that information? A simple preference center can allow your customers to set products, categories, and brands they are interested in. Your customer may have bought that deal for 50 percent off bungee jumping today, but chances are they won't be interested in a buy-one-get-one-free deal on knitting classes tomorrow.
All of this boils down to engagement. ISPs are factoring engagement into the filtering process and marketers will need to test and refine their strategy to remain in the inbox. Regardless of your opinion on the matter, it's here, and it's not going anywhere. If you aren't testing, how can you know what it is that's driving your performance? I understand that developing a testing strategy can be time-consuming and a bit intimidating, but start small and ask for help. Your email service provider can help you develop and test programs that will ultimately give you actionable information. Just like in "Groundhog Day," it might take a while to find the right combination, but it's worth it.

Glory Denied: The Vietnam Saga of Jim Thompson, America's Longest-Held Prisoner of War
The Vietnam Saga of Jim Thompson, America's Longest-Held Prisoner of WarNow hailed as a classic, one of the most unforgettable and heartbreaking books ever written about the Vietnam War. Glory Denied—the harrowing story of America's longest-held POW, the wrenching agonies faced by his family, and the larger story of a nation divided—returns to Norton a decade after its much-heralded publication. Excerpted in The New Yorker and later made into an opera, it is the
The 5th Marine Snipers in Vietnam"It's not easy to stay alive with a $1,000 bounty on your head." In 1967, a bullet cost thirteen cents, and no one gave Uncle Sam a bigger bang for his buck than the 5th Marine Regiment Sniper Platoon. So feared were these lethal marksmen that the Viet Cong offered huge rewards for killing them. Now noted Vietnam author John J. Culbertson, a former 5th Marine sniper himself, presents the riveting
Not Your Ordinary Vietnam War StoriesAfter graduating from the University of Missouri in 1969 I was commissioned as an officer in the Marines. I served an interesting tour of duty in Southeast Asia in 1972, during which time I was "in and out" of six different countries…including Vietnam. A greenhorn lieutenant when I landed, I was eventually promoted to captain. Because of my God given take charge personality and a few "very

Have a Great School Year
"My goodness! My goodness!"
Cried the desk.
"It's already the day before school starts,
And the end of our peace and quiet."
"Ouch," yelled the pencils.
"We'll be heading
Into those sharpeners soon."
"Oh me! Oh my!" sighed the stapler,
Lying in a pool of sunshine.
"It can't be the end
Of another summer already!"
"It sure is," laughed the golden leaf,
Peering in the window.
"Don't you like my
Gorgeous new outfit?
I think I look
Simply marvelous!"
"Just don't get too beautiful,"
Warned the textbook,
"Or some student
Will grab you off the tree,
And stick you inside a book,
And keep you there forever.
Why, I once knew a leaf
Who was stuck inside a book
For twenty-two years.
He said he memorized
Every word on the page."
"If anyone's interested
In my opinion,"
Interrupted the blank paper,
"I can hardly wait
Until the kids come back.
Do you think it is fun to be
I can't wait until someone
Writes on me."
"I hope they won't write on me,
Because it can hurt,"
Moaned the desk.
"Last year Gary wrote,
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I'm in love
With Jenny Lou.
Then he got in a fight
With Jenny and changed
The word 'love' to 'hate.'
Was that painful!"
"I can't wait until
The kids get here,"
Giggled the comic book.
"They love me
And always take me
From the classroom first."
"You're lucky,"
Said the purple book.
"I've been on the shelf
For two years now,
And no one has read me."
"That's because you're
Added the bulletin board.
"It's not my fault,"
Cried the book,
"I didn't write me."
"I can't see anything,"
Complained the wad of gum.
"Someone stuck me
Under this desk
Five years ago,
And I'm still here."
"I know how you feel,"
Sighed the crumpled paper.
"I've been trapped
In the garbage bucket
Since the last day of school.
I just hope I get recycled."
Cried the brand-new ruler.
"I'm so glad I was picked
To go to a school,
Instead of some dull old office."
"I hear someone
Coming down the hall."
Screeched the door.
"Everyone," be quiet!"
"It's just the custodian
With the recycling bin,"
He said a few moments later.
"Oh, oh!"
Said the crumpled paper.
"I'm out of here!"
They all held their breaths
As the custodian came
Into the room
And emptied the garbage.
"Say hi to the kids
And Mrs. Joseph for me,"
Called the crumpled paper
As he went out the door.
"And have a great school year!"

->This is ''WillAndGrace'', [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs on cocaine]], in a parallel universe.
-->-- ''Amazon.co.uk's review of the first series boxset''
A {{BritCom}} about Tom, a CampGay man, and Linda, a loud, overweight trashy [[FagHag straight woman]], sharing a flat. Often compared with ''WillAndGrace'', which had a similar gay man/straight woman roommates idea, but the style and humour were a little different. Both leads were {{Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist}}s...
Actually maybe that isn't so different.
The characters live in a grotty run down flat, that they rent from an ex-prostitute, rather than a plush apartment, and generally the characters were less middle class and the humour broader and more risqué. This is an example of a typical British reaction to those impossibly glossy and unlikely American sitcoms such as ''Series/WillAndGrace'' - stripping off the American gloss and deliberately replacing it with more familiar grot.
Tom and Linda were former clubbing fanatics in their youth, who met in a club one night absolutely stoned, and decided to be roommates. They appear to hate each other, but what bonds them is the fact that, pretty much, no-one else can stand either of them.
It was created by ''Beautiful Thing'' writer Jonathan Harvey, who developed the series with actress Kathy Burke, who played Linda.
''Gimme, Gimme, Gimme'' came 48th in ''Series/BritainsBestSitcom''. Named after the Music/{{ABBA}} song, "Gimme, Gimme, Gimme (A Man after Midnight)".
!!This show provides examples of:
* [[invoked]] ActorAllusion: Su Pollard's character, Heidi Honeycomb, is greeted by Linda; [[Series/HiDeHi "Heidi, Hi!"]]
* AllGaysLoveTheatre: Tom is a struggling actor trying to make it in show business. His most "memorable" role was playing a member of the public in the marketplace of ''Series/EastEnders'' in 1994.
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: Tom's parents turned up in "Dirty 30".
* BabyDollBaby: {{Invoked|Trope}}. Suze and Jez keep a doll one episode in order to practice looking after one in the future. When Linda ballses everything up to the point of being in the local newspaper, they threaten to call the police for kidnapping when Linda doesn't give the "child" back.
* TheBeard: Tom becomes this to the American tourist Gloria in the last episode of the first season because she wants to stay in the UK legally and be with her girlfriend India. They eventually marry, despite Linda's jealousy and attempts of sabotage.
* BerserkButton: Tom gets rather annoyed whenever Linda teases him about his first TV role being an extra on ''[=EastEnders=]''.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: They did this a lot. One time Linda actually says to Tom, "Remember Sugar, you know, my sister from the last series?"
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Suze. She can prove to be really quite cruel towards Linda. Perhaps justified by Linda's own nastiness towards her.
* CampGay: Tom
* ChekhovsGun: In "Stiff", where [[spoiler:they find Beryl's body in a coffin in their living room]], Beryl's boyfriend asks Linda whether she is Beryl's sister but then dismisses the idea because Linda is "too ugly". This seems like a throwaway joke at first, but the fact that Beryl has a sister comes back when [[spoiler:Beryl turns up and announces it was her "bitch twin sister" who has died, not her.]]
* CitizenshipMarriage: In "I Do, I Do, I Do" Tom marries an American lesbian so she can stay in the country.
* DownerEnding: In the last episode, [[spoiler:Tom gets a job on the soap opera ''Crossroads'' and leaves the flat. It manages to get a last laugh in, revealing that Linda's infamous red hair is actually a wig and she is completely bald, but it still ends on a very sad note with her sitting alone on her bed and turning the lights off]].
** The 1999 Christmas Special, where Tom and Linda have absolutely no invitations to any Year 2000 New Years party and get morosely drunk together, finally passing out with alcohol and missing the turn of the Millennium.
* DumbBlonde: Suze.
* EggSitting: Tom and Linda are given the neighbours' doll to look after while they're away because they're practicing how to look after a baby for when they possibly have one in the future.
** Linda grumpily [[HilarityEnsues takes it out for a walk much later]], leading to members of the public being rather concerned about how aggressively she is treating her "child".
--->'''Linda''': ''[crossly, at the group of women]'' Oh, calm down!! It ain't alive!!
* {{Flanderization}}: Unfortunately, by series 3, this had well and truly set in. Both Tom and Linda had become [[TookALevelInDumbass much, much more stupid than they were when the series started]].
* FriendsRentControl: Although Tom is an actor with an agent, he and Linda are rarely seen working, but Tom's recent appearances on television and on stage are usually mentioned whenever Tom wants to remind Linda that he does get employed.
** Linda, meanwhile, claimed she had just got a job working at a call center in the pilot, but gets fired two episodes later. Then we don't see her working until the season finale of season 2, and then nothing after that.
** How Beryl hasn't chucked them out is a mystery.
* HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood: Linda usually mentions hers at least once an episode.
* {{Innuendo|Tropes}}: Whether it be {{accidental|innuendo}}, {{innocent|innuendo}} or just plain {{double entendre}}, it [[UpToEleven comes in spades]].
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Linda and Tom.
* MayDecemberRomance: Beryl has a much younger toyboy lover in "Stiff".
* [[invoked]] NeverLiveItDown: Tom beginning his career in the television industry as an extra in ''[=EastEnders=]''.
* RealSongThemeTune: The theme tune is Music/{{ABBA}}'s "Gimme, Gimme, Gimme (A Man After Midnight)", which the show was named after. The version used as the theme tune isn't the original however, but a version sung by Tom and Linda karaoke style.
** PopCulturePunEpisodeTitle: The final episode of the first season is called "I Do I Do I Do", which is also named after an ABBA song (although the original song title has 5 "I Do"-s and not 3 like the episode's.)
* RoommateCom: The show is about a CampGay man and his FagHag friend sharing a flat near in the UsefulNotes/HomeCounties. They said that they've been roommates for years ever since they met up at a nightclub whilst intoxicated on drugs. For everybody else's sake, it's best that they stay together [[VitriolicBestBuds for the sake of their sanity]].
* SpeakNowOrForeverHoldYourPeace: Subverted; when they get to that part of the ceremony, everyone gasps and looks expectantly at Linda; who has been objecting to the whole thing. She doesn't object and just moans at them to get on with it.
* ThirdPersonPerson: Beryl, the elderly prostitute landlady.
* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist
* VitriolicBestBuds: Although Tom and Linda seem to loathe each other as much as everyone else does, there are moments when they appear to genuinely show a strong friendship, such as Linda making an effort for Tom to have a good birthday, and the Millennium Special, in which Tom and Linda are the only characters to appear (dream sequences and the BigLippedAlligatorMoment notwithstanding), is full of them.

Digest THIS completely insane "ANALysis":)
Probably, the biggest weakness for the company is the flavoring of its sodas. Even though there are numerous types of syrups, critics say the sodas just don't taste as good as those in the market. However, with partnerships like Kraft, SodaStream could soon take its flavorings to another level.
Another weakness would be the company's type of market. Not many people would want to purchase a soda maker for their house, especially if they're not regular drinkers. PepsiCo is able to get product into the mouths of salty snack eaters. SodaStream, on the other hand, can only people who drink soda's regularly.
SodaStream CO2 canisters are not available in all retail stores. While it has improved distribution, this remains a major hangup."
1)Wow!!! It doesn't taste as good? Krammer and Herbie thought otherwise!!! And, you know that p@zzed off those Soda haters.I think the taste is better, especially Diet and with SodaStream, one can control the level of carbonation AND sweetness-IDIOT!!!!!
2)Does anyone understand that sentence about "salty snack eaters" being an advantage for PEP?!!!!;
3)Distribution is a hangup? How do they let a moron like this publish this #$%$?!!!!!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Me thinks they are saying Pep and KO make their stuff available thru other outlets such as vending machines, convenience stores, and fast food outlets. Still wrong though, not the SODA market.
Sentiment: Buy
LOL, with Kraft, they can make a Mac @ Cheese flavor
In 1998 I beheld the Gardners as light-bearers amid the darkness of investment education...These days they have become perpetrators of that same darkness...These days I'll read a paragraph or two and if they are written from a balanced perspective, I'll read on....These days that don't happen much...Many of their writers excel with inane reasonings. Oh well....They are motley AND foolish!

For quilters it is quite easy to back your quilt with the use of extra-wide quilt cotton available in widths of up to 108 inches bit the range of colors is normally limited to white, off white and a few solids. Do something interesting instead using the back of your quilt. Here is how.
Whole Cloth Backing
For those that want to use extra-wide quilt cotton, make it interesting by making use of dye and other embellishments. You can custom dye to complement the quilt or you can use a tie-dye technique or simply apply color using sponges or fabric brushes. Crafting retreats Minnesota recommend the use of dye or fabric paint with stencils for the purpose of creating a few motifs or an all-over pattern. You may also add fabric appliques to the backing fabric. Finish it off with some key embellishments such as beads, ribbons or decorative buttons.
Pieced Backing using Single Fabric
If you prefer the look of a single fabric on the back you are definitely not limited to using extra-wide fabric as you can piece together your own backing with your preferred fabric. Simply purchase additional yardage of your selected fabric that was used on the quilt top or go for broke with a totally different one. In order to calculate how much fabric you require, measure the length of your quilt top and then add six inches, double the amount and the result is the fabric for your backing. Quilting retreats Alexandria Minnesota recommends cutting the fabric in half, selvedge to selvedge. Put aside one half for the center panel and then cut the other half in half lengthwise. Sew each of these narrow lengths on either side of the center panel and then press seams toward the center panel.
When choosing a fabric for the quilt back it is recommended that you choose the same saturation of color as the fabrics used on the quilt top. A dark backing may show through on a light colored top. In order to reduce bulk when creating a pieced back, simply press the seam allowances open as opposed to one side.

Public-speaking experts offer pointers on delivering effective presentations
Partnership for Public Service creates leadership institute for innovation
Agencies find value in coaching
Most PowerPoint users have come to think in bulleted concepts when creating their slides. Bullets are succinct, visual and neatly convey information. But are they absolutely necessary, and would your audience benefit from a different approach?\There seem to be two schools of thought on the bullet. Allen Weiner, president of Communication Development Associates, said hes happy with bullets if they are used appropriately. So is Jan Carroll, an instructor at the Graduate School, USDA.I actually like bullets, Carroll said. There are very creative ways to do them. It has more to do with the way you format and make them look. And if youre using graphics, you should accompany charts with bullet-pointed text.However, David Green, master trainer at Dale Carnegie Training, is an advocate of alternative thinking. Think completely outside of bullets, he said. Is there some other way of seeing it? If its a new concept, can I make an analogy to connect it with something I do know? Use concepts that can simply reinforce what youre saying, perhaps images of numbers.Green referred to the approach of Garr Reynolds, author of Presentation Zen. On his Web site tutorial, Reynolds suggested that the best slides might have no text at all. In one example, instead of offering an eye chart of bullets to illustrate that 72 percent of part-time workers in Japan are women, Reynolds opted for simplicity with a photo of a Japanese woman and the statement. Or even better, he said, display a bold 72% over the photo.The point? The slide remains a visual aid that supports the narration. If you want your audience to walk out with the full content of your presentation, give them a detailed, written handout as a take-away.Of course, if youre going to use bullets, use them appropriately. Dont do a slow reveal, Weiner said. Put them all out there and dont worry about it. When you do a slow reveal, it creates stress for the audience about the ones they cant see.Weiner also suggested that if you have a long list of bullets on a slide, dont talk about all nine. Call attention to one or two of them. The audience can read the rest.Finally, never create your presentation by developing bullet slides. Its the worst thing you can do, Green said.

A short-term funding bill is expected by Sept. 30 to keep the federal government operating through early December, but after that the options get more complicated.
The DOD is opening a new Defense Innovation Unit Experimental office in Austin, Texas, while Congress debates legislation that could defund DIUx.
A House panel approved a new IT modernization bill that appears poised to pass, but key funding questions are left for appropriators.
The Army's cyber director said cyber, electronic warfare and information operations must be integrated into warfighters' doctrine and training.

La Bohème in San Francisco
The show curtain was an illustration of the typical Parisian skyline.
Desire and deception; Amor and artifice. In Jan Philipp Gloger's new production of Così van tutte at the Royal Opera House, the artifice is of the theatrical, rather than the human, kind. And, an opera whose charm surely lies in its characters' amiable artfulness seems more concerned to underline the depressing reality of our own deluded faith in human fidelity and integrity.
On September 22, 2016, Los Angeles Opera presented Darko Tresnjak's production of Giuseppe Verdi's opera Macbeth. Verdi and Francesco Maria Piave based their opera on Shakespeare's play of the same name.
On September 18th, at a casual Sunday matinee, Pacific Opera Project presented a surprising choice for a small company. It was Igor Stravinsky's 1951 three act opera, The Rake's Progress. It's a piece made for today's supertitles with its exquisitely worded libretto by W.H. Auden and Chester Kallman.
We are nearing the end of Classical Opera's MOZART 250 sojourn through 1766, a year that the company's artistic director Ian Page admits was 'on face value a relatively fallow year'. I'm not so sure: Jommelli's Il Vogoleso, performed at the Cadogan Hall in April, was a gem. But, then, I did find the repertoire that Classical Opera offered at the Wigmore Hall in January, 'worthy rather than truly engaging' (review). And, this programme of Haydn and his Czech contemporary Josef Mysliveček was stylishly executed but did not absolutely convince.
Globalization finds its way ever more to San Francisco Opera where Italian composer Marco Tutino's La Ciociara saw the light of day in 2015 and now, 2016, Chinese composer Bright Sheng's Dream of the Red Chamber has been created.
Renowned Polish tenor Piotr Beczala and well-known collaborative pianist Martin Katz opened the San Diego Opera 2016–2017 season with a recital at the Balboa Theater on Saturday, September 17th.
San Francisco Opera makes occasional excursions into the operatic big-time, such just now was Giordano's blockbuster Andrea Chénier, last seen at the War Memorial 23 years ago (1992) and even then after a hiatus of 17 years (1975).
There is no reason why, given the right performers, second-tier Verdi can't be a top-tier operatic experience, as was the case with this concert version of I Due Foscari.
Since their first appearance in Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra's literary master-piece, during the Spanish Golden Age, the ingenuous and imaginative knight-errant, Don Quixote, and his loyal subordinate and squire, Sancho Panza, have touched the creative imagination of composers from Salieri to Strauss, Boismortier to Rodrigo.
Bampton Classical Opera's 2016 double-bill 'touched down' at St John's Smith Square last night, following performances in The Deanery Garden at Bampton and The Orangery of Westonbirt School earlier this summer.
Daniele Gatti opened the first series of Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra's season with a slightly uneven performance of Mahler's Resurrection Symphony. With four planned, this staple repertoire for the RCO meant to introduce Gatti to the RCO subscribers.
Opera San Jose opened a commendably impassioned Lucia di Lammermoor that sets the company's bar very high indeed as it begins its new season.
The approach of the 2016-17 opera season has brought rising anticipation and expectation for the ROH's new production - the first at Covent Garden for almost 30 years - of Bellini's bel canto master-piece, Norma.
Last June, Riccardo Chailly led the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra in Bach's St. Matthew's Passion for his last concert as Principal Conductor.
After its world premiere at Royal Opera House in London last year, the German première of Georg Friedrich Haas's Morgen und Abend took place at the Deutsche Oper Berlin.
Rarely have I experienced such fabulous singing in such a dreadful production. With magnificent voices, Andreas Schager and Dorothea Röschmann rescued Michael Thalheimer's grotesque staging of von Weber's Der Freischütz. At Staatsoper Unter den Linden, Alexander Soddy led a richly detailed, transparent and brilliantly glowing Berliner Staatskapelle.
For the penultimate BBC Prom at the Royal Albert Hall on Friday 9 September 2016, Marin Alsop conducted the BBC Youth Choir and Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment in Verdi's Requiem with soloists Tamara Wilson, Alisa Kolosova, Dimitri Pittas, and Morris Robinson.
"Eccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness. It is often a kind of innocent pride, and the man of genius and the aristocrat are frequently regarded as eccentrics because genius and aristocrat are entirely unafraid of and uninfluenced by the opinions and vagaries of the crowd."
When I look back on the 2016 Proms season, this Opera Rara performance of Semiramide - the last opera that Rossini wrote for Italy - will be, alongside Pekka Kuusisto's thrillingly free and refreshing rendition of Tchaikovsky's violin concerto - one of the stand-out moments.
Of all the places in Germany, Oper am Rhein at Theater Duisburg staged an intriguing American double bill of rarities. An experience that was well worth the trip to this desolate ghost town, remnant of industrial West Germany.
The show curtain was an illustration of the typical Parisian skyline.
On the downbeat it quickly parted to reveal a scenic contraption that was a garret of sorts, its mattress elevated on a pile (illustrated, not real) of books, and an admonition written on the wall Se plaindre c'est un perdre du temps (for those of the audience who didn't know French or were sitting too far away to read it, this told us that complaining is a waste of time).
So, let us not waste time on what we found lacking, and get right to what we liked. San Francisco Opera Music Director designate, Nicola Luisotti, participated with every syllable uttered on the stage, literally quivered with every emotion, and wrenched very grand pathos out of Puccini's sad little story. Donald Runicles' San Francisco Opera Orchestra responded full bore to their new maestro with renewed lyricism and resplendent tone proving itself again one of the world's fine operatic ensembles.
Moments of extraordinary verismo abounded. The monochromatic tenor of Piotr Beczala made sudden sense in the third act when Mo. Luisotti orchestrally evoked the naïve, adolescent recognition of new feelings by what seemed to be an emotionally retarded tenor. The fourth act duet of reconciliation shivered with tiny flashes of love, and finally the sudden, overwhelming orchestral cry, joined by that of Rodolfo, shattered the silence of death.
Norah Amsellem (Musetta)
Back at the first act, Mimi and Rodolfo sustained full throated high "C's" offstage as the garret contraption disappeared into kinetic openness of a Parisian place. Illustrated hotels de la ville materialized in front of our eyes in a surprisingly simple, and pleasing a vista transformation of scene. The Cafe Momus later materialized much less elegantly, to become populated suddenly and a little strangely by a noisy crowd of youngsters — the amazing San Francisco Boys Chorus (with some members of the San Francisco Girls Chorus) singing boisterously and joyfully, and always on the beat.
The big house extravagance of a real marching band (two drums, four trumpets, two piccolos) parading noisily across the stage at the end of Act II was deeply satisfying too. Some of the best Boheme's understandably occur in provincial theaters where resources are usually as humble as are the opera's protagonists, and where it is far more cost efficient to render this lively musical climax from the pit.
If Maestro Luisotti gave us the very real if overscaled emotions of verismo, Angela Gheorghiu gave us simplicity itself as the ill-fated Mimi. She was the evening's only believable and real character, achieved by la Gheorghiu with true artistry, artistry that often tested, and sometimes even teased her considerable, sophisticated vocal technique. Madame Gheorghiu (she is an officier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres) indeed creates a vocally complex Mimi. That it is so physically manifest (acted out) is another matter, understandably irritating to the uninitiated, and irritating to stage directors who are almost universally not among her fans.
One can only sympathize with Mme. Gheorghiu in her trials with Lyric Opera of Chicago regarding an AWOL from her Chicago Boheme manquée rehearsals to visit Roberto who was singing Faust just then at the Met (if there is possibly anyone who does not yet know, the French tenorissimo Roberto Alagna is her husband). As Mme. Gheorghiu knows, Mimi is the calm center of the maelstrom of emotions that are La Boheme. What more is there for her to do than walk on stage at the end of Act I and sit on the bed while Rodolfo sings, sit at a table at the Cafe Momus while Musetta sings, hover in the background in Act III while Rodolfo and Marcello sing, and lie in bed in Act IV while her friends emote one by one. Quite obviously it is Mimi's friends, not Mimi, who need rehearsal time as they are the ones who complete the show.
Scene from Act II
These San Francisco Opera performances of La Boheme (the last one will mark the two hundred twenty third SFO performance of Puccini's little opera) bare the delicacy of this masterpiece when attempted with extravagant operatic resources. In San Francisco the problem was integrating smaller scale artists — singers, directors and designers - with great artists and with grand opera scale choral, orchestral and technical resources.

Side Lunge With Teacup Raise

Side Lunge with Teacup Raise. Here we go. You're going to do 10 lunges here then switch legs and do another 10. As you lunge, make sure to keep your knee over your ankle.
