7 steps to a successful home remodeling project
Jim Weisman, Republic West Remodeling | September 30, 2014 1:05 pm
Creating new space can be an exciting project for homeowners. In many cases, it's also a good financial investment. Adapting your home to better suit your lifestyle often beats the cost of buying a new house and the hassle of moving.

World Bank Lauds Developing Nations' Competitiveness Push
Singapore ranked at the top of the World Bank's annual competitiveness study for a seventh straight year, while developing nations were found to be accelerating reforms making it easier to open and operate businesses.
"Business regulatory practices have been slowly converging as economies with initially poor performance narrow the gap with better performers," the Washington-based lender said in its 2013 Doing Business report, released yesterday. "Among the 50 economies with the biggest improvements since 2005, the largest share -- a third -- are in sub-Saharan Africa."
Hong Kong had the second-best business environment, followed by New Zealand, the U.S., Denmark, Norway and the U.K., rankings that were unchanged from last year. The study, now in its 10th year and published together with the International Finance Corp., tracks indicators such as the time it takes to start a business, submit tax returns and export or import goods.
Poland, which ranked 55th, showed the most improvement of the 185 nations covered by the study, as it made it easier to register property, pay taxes, enforce contracts and resolve insolvency. Other countries to implement substantial reforms were Sri Lanka, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Burundi and Costa Rica.
"We recorded in excess of 200 reforms tracked by the business indicators across the seven regions covered by the World Bank," Augusto Lopez-Claros, a global indicators and analysis director at the World Bank Group, said in conference call from Washington.
WEF, Switzerland
The study's rankings differ from those of World Economic Forum's global competitiveness index, which monitors different indicators, including macro-economic performance and public finances. The Geneva-based forum last month ranked Switzerland as the most competitive nation.
"You would have expected a deterioration in the rankings of most of the industrial countries" in the WEF survey, Lopez- Claros said. "Levels of public indebtedness have gone up. Increases in public indebtedness have no bearing on the indicators that we track."
Greece, which has been at the forefront of the European debt crisis, improved its ranking to 78 from 100, while that of Italy rose to 73 from 87.
"What we are seeing in these countries is basically a renewed understanding that in order to address the fiscal problems, in order to get their economies onto a kind of sustainable path of fiscal adjustment and lower debt ratios, they need to address issues like competitiveness, issues of productivity, issues of business regulation," Lopez-Claros said.
South Africa, which has Africa's largest economy, ranked 39th, down four places from the previous study. Mauritius, ranked 19th, was found to have Africa's most competitive economy.
The Central African Republic was found to be the worst place to do business, followed by Chad, the Republic of Congo and Eritrea.

Tests for West Nile, EEE Negative in Rhode Island
NewsRadio 920 WHJJ and the Associated Press
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — State environmental officials say their weekly tests for West Nile virus and eastern equine encephalitis turned up negative.
The Department of Environmental Management on Tuesday released results for tests they did of mosquitoes trapped during the week of July 28.
They say they have found no mosquitoes so far this year with either West Nile or EEE. People infected with West Nile and EEE can get seriously ill.
The agency warns that mosquitoes in Massachusetts and Connecticut have recently been found with West Nile, and EEE has been found in mosquitoes in Massachusetts.

Saucony have been doing quite a bit in this area with a move to 4mm heel-to-toe drops on a number of shoes. There are some new models, such as the Kinvara and Mirage, and also some existing models have been updated, such as the Fastwitch.
Personally I bought a pair of Mirage and I'm very pleased with them, using them for base training upto about 15 miles so far without any discomfort. I'm very tempted to pick up a pair of the Fastwitch or Kinvara for my speed work. I've moved across from more traditional Asics shoes, and haven't had any problems.
I think inov-8 have been doing some road shoes lately, so these might be worth a look?
Brooks Pure Flow. Great shoe..

@snowchiefLocale: SoCal
Sometimes when I hike for long periods of time in hot weather I get these red bumps in random spots around my ankles and one on my calf. Does anyone know what it is?? It doesn't itch or anything and it goes away with time. It does get irritated when I rub it or something. Can anyone help?Apr 19, 2008 at 8:43 pm #1429210
Miguel ArboledaBPL Member
@butukiLocale: Kanto Plain, Japan
It's probably a heat rash. They are common in hot humid places like here in Japan, especially when you exert yourself. I think they often happen when your body is not acclimated to the heat and the perspiration happens faster than your pores can deal with. I've found that if I continue doing for more than a week whatever exercise I am doing they go away.Apr 20, 2008 at 9:10 am #1429248

I agree with Miguel.
When was young on my first summer cycle holiday without my parents. I got red spots under my socks and shorts. I got an appointment to a local Scottish doc twice but they were in the evening, the spots had vanished each time.Apr 21, 2008 at 12:07 pm #1429346

@jdmitchLocale: Kansas
Yeah, if you hadn't have mentioned them not itching I would have immediately suspected chiggers. As miguel said though, it's probably some form of heat rash.Apr 21, 2008 at 2:50 pm #1429373

Thanks for your help guys!Apr 21, 2008 at 3:47 pm #1429380

The red bumps on your ankles sound to me like one of two things. Either 1) they are from chiggers, microscopic little arthropods (I believe it's actually a mite) that burrow into your skin and cause inflammation in the form of little red bumps; or 2) irritating oils from a plant. Poison ivy is not the only plant that causes dermatitis. Depending on the region you're hiking (the Southwestern United States has a lot), there is a wide variety of other plants that can irritate the skin.
If it were heat rash (or miliaria), you'd probably get the red bumps in a more widespread distribution around your body and not just your lower legs. Heat rash is also supposed to cause itching.
My hunch is that it's chiggers.Apr 22, 2008 at 3:03 pm #1429588
Phil BartonBPL Member
@flyfastLocale: Oklahoma
Living where I am we have learned about chiggers. If anything they itch. Boy, do they itch! Maybe a heat rash. Maybe time to ask the dermatologist.Apr 23, 2008 at 6:29 am #1429688

"If anything they itch. Boy, do they itch!"
And that's a gross understatement.
"If it were heat rash (or miliaria), you'd probably get the red bumps in a more widespread distribution around your body and not just your lower legs."
Not necessarily, he's getting it in the area that works the most and is most likely covered by socks. AKA the part of his body where the skin is most likely to be at an elevated temperature as compared to the rest of his skin.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - June 30, 2011, New Braunfels, Texas A Herald-Zeitung special report Series at a glance Today ■ RWER HEALTH: A man who has been diving the Comal River every day for decades says he's never seen it this bad. The bed of the river is nothing but garbage and there is little life in die river. ■ MW DOES IT WORK aSCTMfflET: Sacramento County, CaW instituted an alcohol ban with help from the state on busy stretches of river during holiday weekends. The ban eliminated many of their issues with rowdy, disrespectful river users. Tomorrow ■ FOURTH OF JULY. What is the city's strategy I predictions for the Fourth of July weekend on the river? ■ WHO'S RESPONSIBLE?: What is the tourist industry's role in river behavior? They work to bring people here, do they have a responsibility to help control behavior or tourist attitudes? What about the outfitters? Whet is therr responsibility in controlling behavior? Liquor stores — do they have a responsibility? The city? And what happened to personal responsibility? By LWKXKK) MOUttne The Herald-Zeitung New Braunfels is not the first city to find ways of dealing with troublemakers on its waterways. Many cities across the country have had various issues connected with water recreation, and many have found ways to limit the effects of the issues on the community. For instance, officials in Sacramento County, Calif., had problems with visitors to the American River bringing huge amounts of alcohol, getting drunk and behaving badly, said Ted Wolter, chief of staff for Sacramento County Supervisor Roberta MacGlashan. "The activity on the American River was so over the top there was even, at one point, an amateur 'Girls Gone Wild' video of the American River," Wolter said. "There's nudity — or there was at the time." Wolter said much of the same behavior seen on New Braunfels' Comal River happened on the American River before the alcohol ban. Bad behavior included fighting, littering and trespassing. Wolter said Sacramento County supervisors addressed the problem by imposing an alcohol LAURA McKENZIE | Herald-Zeitung Sgt. Chris Snyder, left, city river manager Nathan Pence and Sgt. Stephen Hanna watch the river activity near Hinman Island Park on Saturday afternoon. ban on the river. Supervisors initially met a roadblock because the county does not own the river. The state does. What supervisors did, Wolter said, was get a state law passed banning alcohol on the river.

"We're going to cancel the fireworks," Mayor Betty Ann Matthies said Tuesday afternoon. "The safety of our community is our main priority." She said the dec ision was made after the city received a directive from the Texas Department of Public Safety requesting all cities and counties not hold fireworks displays. Matthies said the DPS directive was sent to Fire Chief Scott Mycue and Seguin Fire Department. She met with Mycue, Fire Marshal Greg Dreiss and City Manager Doug Faseler and the decision was made. "I personally am very disappointed that we won't be able to have the fireworks," she said, adding that city officials planned to talk with the company that conducts the fireworks display and determine if the fireworks show might he postponed until a later date. "Altnougn fireworks are a traditional way to celebrate holidays like the Fourth of July, we are urging cities, counties and families to cancel fireworks plans this year," DPS Director Steven C. McCraw said. "It's just tcx) dry, and our firefighting resources are stretched too thin to he able to cope with potentially massive outbreaks of fires caused by fireworks." New Braunfels, Schertz, San Marcos and San Antonio have canceled their fireworks displays. Schertz is planning a laser show in its place. The fireworks display at McQueeney's Lake Breeze Ski Lodge is still scheduled. As of June 19, more than 3 million acres have burned in Texas during a fire season that started ihis past December.

Portions of the San Marcos River, the San Antonio River, the Colorado River, the Nueces River, the Rio Grande River and many other rivers are on the list of rivers suffering water-quality issues. But not the Comal. In fact, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's 2010 assessment of the Comal River shows no water-quality concerns, with the river fully supporting its four designated categories of use: recreational use, public water supply use, general use and aquatic life use. The state checked for such things as bacteria and toxic substances and found the river within water-quality standards. Local divers viewpoint But local divers say they've seen big changes in the river in recent years — some of which they suspect are because of the impact of tourism.

Calderone-Stewart focuses on empowerment at work and in death
Even after cancer diagnosis, Calderone-Stewart kept focus on youth ministry
As you already know, I'm 'Dying to Know You Better' . . . .
That's what Lisa-Marie Calderone-Stewart liked to say, and she meant it in every sense of the word. It was also what she called her online journal.
Calderone-Stewart was diagnosed with lymphoma in June 2009. Then she was diagnosed with bile duct cancer that August.
Every month, I say, 'I can't imagine I'll be here another month!' and then everyone tells me, 'You say that every month!' and I respond, 'Yes, but one of these months, I'm going to be right!'
Now she is finally right.
Calderone-Stewart died Friday in hospice care in Wauwatosa. She was 53.
She was sweetly philosophical about even that, as she wrote early this year in her journal at www.caringbridge.org/visit/lisacalderone.
I am 53 today. My dad died at age 53. Jim Henson also died at age 53 . . .
I imagine I will as well . . . and I will be in excellent company!
The Milwaukee chapter of her life began in 1997. She joined the Archdiocese of Milwaukee as a leader of Catholic Youth Ministries, involved in mentoring and youth leadership training. She also created Tomorrow's Present, a youth leadership ministry.
When budget problems meant the program was going to be cut, Calderone-Stewart decided to move it to the House of Peace. There was a big catch - no salary - unless she could raise the money to run it, as she explained in her journal.
It was very Franciscan. . . . I would have to beg for a living.
I took a leap of faith. And here I am. A Jesuit soul in a Franciscan ministry center. Or maybe . . . I've had a Franciscan soul all along.
Focused on empowerment
She earned her doctorate in education at Cardinal Stritch University. The university's Leadership Center now runs Tomorrow's Present in partnership with the House of Peace.
Always, her work was about empowering people, young and old, to change their lives - and the world - through learning, reflection, leadership and service.
Key parts of the program have names like "Hope Is Something You Do" and "Pebbles of Peace Outweighing Boulders of Violence."
"She believed that every young person could reach their full potential if they were given the right amount of love, the right amount of support and someone believed in them," said Sean Lansing, director of Youth Leadership Development and Tomorrow's Present at Cardinal Stritch University. "That was her legacy and impact."
Others agreed.
"She devoted her whole life to working and fighting for social justice," said Peter Holbrook, executive director of the Leadership Center. "Lisa taught me to dream big, be daring and that hope really meant having outrageous expectations and understanding, no matter what happens, everything would work out."
"Are we changing the world?" she asked in a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel story in 2006. "We are changing it, pebble by pebble, piece by piece."
She loved to write. That included lots of professional work on youth leadership and ministry. More recently, she self-published a novel about a character named Nellie Massa, inspired by her own experiences at the House of Peace. All profits go to Tomorrow's Present. (Information about the novel is available at: www.lulu.com/product/paperback/made-to-write/13399623. )
She also wrote about the people who were important to her, including sons Michael and Ralph Stewart, who came into her life the year after their birth mother died.
She even wrote about life as a dying person.
"When you know you are dying, it's really just a new way of living," she said in a column for the U.S. Catholic magazine.
In her personal life, she loved swimming, finding peace and strength in long laps even as the cancer ravaged her body. She was inspired by Kermit the Frog, Snoopy and the Cat in the Hat - and by real-life heroes Jim Henson, Charles Schulz and Dr. Seuss.
Calderone-Stewart talked about what her years in Milwaukee meant to her, calling it a marvelous place to live, to work and to pray. She also said it was where she began to drink beer, discovering that she loved the dark stuff.
She loved watching "Monk" episodes. Calderone-Stewart once admitted to a hospice nurse that she was experiencing more pain after a marathon "Monk" fest. It seemed she had laughed too much. And, yes, she said, she would do it again.
She grew up in Mountainside, N.J., and later worked other jobs elsewhere, including in Grand Island, Neb.; Saginaw, Mich.; Montgomery, Ala.; and Chestnut Hill, Mass.
Received youth ministry award
Late last year, Calderone-Stewart was honored with the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry's Award in the Gospel Values of Justice and Peace.
"No one gets out of this world alive," she told Jim Stingl, columnist for the Journal Sentinel, early in her illness. "All things being said, this is not a terrible way to die. I have a committee of people working to help my dream come true. Like, who gets that? That's an amazing blessing. How can I feel unlucky or cheated?"
In addition to her sons, survivors include brothers Joe, David and Steven Calderone, and grandchildren.
Details of a service for Calderone-Stewart are not yet final.
Memorials are suggested to Cardinal Stritch University-Tomorrow's Present, 1037 W. McKinley Ave., Milwaukee, WI 53205.

Because of Browning
Poetry and physics combine as DI Agnetha King investigates arson that was much more than a fire and a murder that might have occurred accidentally. She must use all her knowledge to unearth a selection of guilty parties.
Grains of smoke moved erratically as Detective King stepped into the room. She ducked her head with some pride to avoid the charred remains of a falling beam. The room stank of oil and flames, but what clearly laid itself out to the DI was the shaft of light that dripped in from a gash in the wall.
Oxygen, still invisible to the eye. Smoke grains, seen because of the light that chose to reflect itself off them.
"Evidence..." she whispered. Indeed, all evidence pointed to the motions of the smoke. If the grains were moving erratically, something must have been there to cause them, to lead the flow of the air in their broad direction. As general as it was, she knew that her summations had a flicker of truth about them: that the air molecules, disturbed, were moving haphazardly, too.
When the DI looked up, the glint of silver stood out of the broken rafters- a weapon, hidden in plain sight, more dangerous than the fire that had been started to bring the blade into the open. It swung in an arc, just waiting; for whom, she could not know, but the blade sharpened with every turn. And, as well, as the shimmers, the light revealed one clue more:
The rope had been burnt. The rope from which the knife dived down.
"Roll!" she cried to the uniformed-figures behind her, throwing herself onto the floor as she did so. The DI felt the final buffet of air as the sharp piece of mental landed, point-down, about half a metre away from her face. The burnt ruins of the building immediately swallowed up the weapon, despite all the woman's grappling to snatch it as further evidence.
Agnetha swore. It was all in a day's work for her to end up being threatened by the ghost of a villain already gone.

Excavation for the foundations at the Herndon station has begun.
Most of the sound wall at the Innovation Center Station are complete. The foundation for tower crane is within the footprint of the north, track N2 sound wall, not in the N2 track way as noted in my previous post.
The bridge girders over Centerville Road have been set. They are of the same design as the girders over Horsepen Run.
The right of way barrier walls east of Rudder Road have proceeded several hundred feet more further east.
Columns have begun to come out of the ground west of the east abutment west of Rudder Road.
Excavation at the airport station on the mezzanine side of the of the pedestrian tunnel is nearly complete. Columns have begun to come out of the ground west of the station.
All of the mainline columns from the southern most column along Airfright Lane to the shoulder of the Dulles Greenway are done. Girders continue to be set heading north along Autopilot Drive, as of this date 36 have set along Autopilot Drive and 8 along Airfright Lane.
All of the column in the Dulles Yard lead Y are done. I did not go back into the woods to check the progress on rest of the the columns west of the east lead junction, I think we are safe to assume they are mostly done.
No work has begun on the columns in the median of the Dulles Greenway.
Land is being cleared on the north side of the Dulles Greenway to make way for the entrance at the Loudoun Gateway station. Land is also being cleared on the south side for what appears to be a staging area.
Land is being cleared on the remainder of the site at Dulles Yard.
Most of the girders between the abutments over Broad Run have been set. To reduce the disruption to traffic on the Dulles Greenway the contractor built the column in the stream bed and set those girders before building the abutments and setting the on girders either side of the stream.
Test track and Commissioning Facility
The track work on the test track is done. The signals at the crossover are in place south of the E10 Greenbelt interlocking and are covered with bags. The marker coils for the simulated station alone with the signage marking the location of the ends of the station are in place. The simulated station is located under the Greenbelt Road overpass. The north end is roughly 185' north of the north side of the overpass. The center of the platform is located at roughly E 609+95.Dulles Access Road:

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'AstraZeneca' started by Anonymous, Oct 13, 2011 at 9:34 PM.
Any reason this new combo of Januvia and Zocor is not being discussed by BMS or AZ?
Because it will be about as successful as Caduet.
Merck reps I know calling this product
TAKE A CLOSE LOOK SNAPPERHEAD...NOT A BLOCKBUSTER BUT WILL FILL A NICHE...Not the same as caduet but will give some limited job security. Sales reps need something to sell! I don't see AZ launching anything earth shattering do you??
Well...you must not know about VIMOVO dude
Because it is the most idiotic launch of a product in recent memory. I can see it now at Merck:
"What should we do that would be pretty awesome?"
"Maybe we should grind up some of the Zocor tablets we were going to grind up to put in Vytorin, but since no one uses Vytorin anymore, let's grind up some Januvia tablets...mix em' up and create a product that no one will need.."
"Jee whiz boss, that sounds great but there is a potential issue...that pesky dosage limitation that was added to the simvastatin label. Especially when you couple that with the fact that if a person has Type-2 diabetes they are immediately labeled as high to very-high risk. And since you need 80mg of simva to get most people to these goals...well that really won't fly."
"No, no, let's just launch it anyway. I don't give a crap about that kind of stuff!"
"Man boss you're swell, now I see how you got where you are in life!"
"Damn right I'm smart, if my successful launch of Dulera didn't prove it this certainly will!"
Need I go any further?
Januvia is a 3rd line diabetic agent (after met is maxed, after a TZD is ruled out). Zocor is the 3rd choice for a statin (after lipitor, after crestor). Liver panel sucks with Zocor.
3rd line diabetic agent mixed with 3rd line statin= not worth your time to worry about. Knowing Merck- they priced this way out of the market and managed care will never cover it. They'll give away a bunch of this stuff with samples, vouchers and savings cards. Then, they'll shelve it in about a year.
Remember- Merck reps are paid on customer service and district sales numbers... there is no reason for them to kill themselves to sell it. When you pay reps more on customer service surveys than on sales... They become professional caterers and "nice guys."
Although some of the posts here state the truth, this whole thread is based on wrong info. MCR reps that sell crestor & onglyza have already been sent a backgrounder & other training materials on juvisync. It is not being ignored
Just showing how stupid you people are by using CADUET as the reference point for a combination drug and saying it "stunk". Yeah it stunk for $500 million a year at its peak in 2007 and still "stinks" at $389 million in US sales for the 2010 year. Trust me, plenty of companies would love to have a stinky $389 million per year drug. Know what you are talking about before you open your piehole. Yes I used to be a pfizer rep, now I am AZ but I didnt check my brain in at the door.
Well ex prized rep, $389 mil in this company will get you a pink slip.


text: ROSH HAAYIN, Israel, June 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Alon Holdings Blue Square - Israel Ltd. (hereinafter: "Alon Holdings") announced today that it had been informed by its 78.22% held subsidiary, Blue Square Real Estate (herein, "BSRE") of the closing on May 31 st, 2012 of the purchase agreements entered into on June 3, 2010, by and among Blue Square Real Estate, Gindi Investments 1 Ltd. and an additional entity controlled by Moshe and Yigal Gindi (together with Gindi Investments 1 Ltd., "Gindi"), as purchasers (through two subsidiaries owned 50% by BSRE and 50% by Gindi) (the "Purchasers"), and the municipality of Tel Aviv and the Wholesale Market for Agricultural Produce in Tel Aviv Company Ltd. (the "Wholesale Market Company"), as sellers (the "Sellers"), of rights to a long term lease of property, for a period ending August 31, 2099, in the wholesale market site in Tel Aviv (the "Property"). At closing, the Purchasers paid the Sellers the balance of the consideration (the "Balance of Consideration"), in the aggregate amount of approximately NIS 730 million plus VAT. In addition to the Balance of Consideration, the Sellers may be entitled to additional consideration calculated as a percentage of the sale price of apartments that are sold in the apartment buildings complex (the "additional consideration"), according to terms stipulated in the agreements. As of the date hereof, no obligation for the Additional Consideration had arisen, and BSRE is unable to estimate at this stage whether any such entitlement to Additional Consideration will arise and the amount of the Additional Consideration, if any. In order to pay the Balance of Consideration, the Purchasers received loans (the "Loan") from Bank Hapoalim (the "Bank") in the aggregate principal amount of NIS 730 million. The term of the Loan is 18 months and interest is payable quarterly at an annual rate of PRIME + 2% (total current annual rate of 6%). The loan agreement grants the Bank the right to demand immediate repayment of the loan in case Alon Holdings' ownership or holding in BSRE or BSRE's holdings in the subsidiaries which hold the Purchasers drops below 51% and in other customary circumstances. In addition to this loan, the Bank provided the Purchasers with an additional loan in the principal amount of NIS 120 million to pay the VAT on the Balance of Consideration. The term of this loan is two months and bears interest at an annual rate of PRIME + 2% (total current annual rate of 6%). BSRE estimates that the Purchasers will repay the principal of this loan upon receipt of the VAT refund from the Israeli Tax Authorities. Purchasers received possession of the land, and mortgages have been registered on the Sellers' rights in favor of the Bank. In addition, to secure the repayment of the Loan, the Purchasers and the shareholders of the Purchasers (BSRE and Gindi on a 50/50 basis) provided other collateral and commitments according to the terms of the loan, including but not limited to, a grant to the Bank of an unlimited guarantee by all shareholders of the Purchasers, a lien on all the assets of the Purchasers and a lien on all the shareholdings of the controlling shareholders in the Purchasers.

EUR: our new safe haven?
By Mark Jensen, FBS analyst
During the past few years EUR has been a barometer of risk: it fell in times of bad sentiment and rose than investors were eager to risk. In December this situation changed. Euro tried on a role of safe haven and reacted in the opposite manner:
- Euro was pretty unaffected by the recent crisis in the emerging markets
- Euro rallied on some days when stocks were falling down
Usually such behavior was seen only in USD, JPY and CHF. Euro became a safe haven because the euro zone's debt crisis is no longer here and due to the euro zone's large current-account surplus which means steady demand for EUR. The ECB's low rates make loans in euro attractive. Overseas traders borrow money in euro and invest in riskier higher-yielding currencies. In the times of stress they unwind risky positions, and repay their loans in EUR buying it to do so.
So, if tensions at emerging escalate, euro has a chance to keep doing quite well. However, this may change if euro zone's peripheral markets become more susceptible to external shocks. Uncertainty about the ECB's policy may also worsen euro's safe haven status.

CORRECTED-UPDATE 2-Fertilizer producer Israel Chemicals files for US listing
(Corrects second paragraph to show that ICL's parent company set the fundraising target)
Sept 12 (Reuters) - Israel Chemicals Ltd (ICL), a Tel Aviv-based maker of fertilizer and specialty chemicals, filed with U.S. regulators to list on the New York Stock Exchange.
ICL's parent company, conglomerate Israel Corp, set a nominal fundraising target of about $522.4 million through an initial public offering of 62 million ordinary shares, ICL said in a filing to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. (1.usa.gov/1pd8EV6)
ICL, which has exclusive permits to extract potash and bromine from the Dead Sea, is a subsidiary of Israel Corp and the second largest company on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange by market value.
The shares are being sold by Israel Corp and Israel Chemicals will receive no proceeds from the IPO, ICL said in a statement. (bit.ly/YFNqtD)
ICL was established in 1968 as a government-owned company and was listed on the Tel Aviv exchange in 1992 after the government decided to privatize it.
In 1995, Israel sold its controlling interest to Israel Corp, which now has a 52.4 percent stake in ICL, making it its largest shareholder.
However, the Israeli government still holds a special state share in ICL, which gives it the authority to decide on any sale or transfer of assets of the company.
The government for months has been looking to update its royalty and tax policy on non-oil and gas natural resources and, in May, a government panel recommended levying a new tax on mining companies. Continued...

CANADA STOCKS-TSX rises with bank shares, but oils fall
* TSX rises 0.6 percent to 10,418.44
* Financials climb 1.9 percent
* Energy sector falls 0.5 percent as oil dips below $70 (Adds details, quote)
By Jennifer Kwan
TORONTO, June 26 (Reuters) - Toronto's main stock index rose on Friday morning after wavering at the start of the session as strength in financial shares overcame weakness in energy issues due to sagging oil prices.
The index's financial sector climbed 1.9 percent, boosted by Royal Bank of Canada (RY.TO: Quote), up 2.5 percent at C$47.65, and Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD.TO: Quote), which also climbed 2.5 percent to C$60.13.
Tugging at the market was weakness in energy sector, which sank 0.5 percent as the price of oil dropped below $70 a barrel. That weighed on Suncor Energy Inc (SU.TO: Quote), which dropped 0.2 percent to C$35.10, and Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ.TO: Quote), down 0.8 percent at C$59.82.
No matter the direction on Friday, the week already has been like a "roller-coaster," said Ian Nakamoto, director of research at MacDougall, MacDougall & MacTier.
"I think it says a lot about investor sentiment. They feel the worst is behind us because when there's a big dip they're willing to come in, but they're still not convinced that we're in the signs of recovery." Continued...

Eliza - Arrival in town
We had climbed into the carriage, and rode towards town. It took 2 days of riding to reach town, especially with the Butler ensuring we stopped briefly each night.
We arrived in town just before night hall and quickly took lodgings in the town house we had hired. The housekeeper was introduced to us, a person I could tell Moira would want to interrogate the second she had me settled.
"Did her luggage arrive?" inquired Moira.
"Yes," replied the housekeeper. "I have put it in her room. Your room is adjourning it. I have left it for you to unpack, I know some maids are particular about their mistress's belongings."
"In this case it is the mistress who is particular Helen," I told the housekeeper. "I cannot bear for anyone else but my dear Moira." Moira, of course, deciding she was to use her own name. It was necessary for me to change my name, due to the Frances name being well recognized on our side of the border, and possibly on this one.
"Very well Miss St James. I am sure you wish to rest?" the housekeeper Helen asked.
"Yes. I am much fatigued from my journey, and we have much to prepare before I am due to be presented at court in 2 days time. Moira wishes to ensure everything is up to standard before we begin to hint for a husband for me," I replied. "If you would lead the way to my chambers that would be much appreciated.
We were quickly lead up the stairs, a grand tour promised for the morning. My chambers were much smaller and plainer that I was used to, but over here I was playing the child of a very minor, very deceased noble, so could not expect to live to the level of my normal finery.
I hoped the others had arrived safely at the safehouse, at that Alexandra had been safely presented at court. She was due to be presented on arrival in the city, before visiting her own lodgings, from what we had been told.
Once we were safely within our lodgings, Moira opened the large chest sitting beside the bed. "Is everything in there?" I enquired.
Moira quickly pulled out the dresses and laid them carefully on the bed before reaching down to the hidden chamber within the chest. "It has not been disturbed," she murmured, pulling out a small dagger and leg sheaf, for emergencies. There was also some parchment and what we were told is invisible ink, as well as normal ink. There would be pigeons made available at some point, but we had not brought them with us. Jon was set to deliver them on his next visit, from what I could recall.
"Everything is here miss Eliza," Moira told me, before moving to hang away the dresses. The task done, she then turned to me. "Now lets get you out of that dirty travel dress and into bed. You look exhausted and we can't have any bags under your eyes when your presented at court."
"Its not like I'm really looking for a husband Moira," I replied, sighing as she began to undo the buttons at the back of my dress.
"Yes, but you have to look like you are," Moira replied cheekily.

He came running from the cemetery screaming…dried blood still all over his arms and legs from where it appeared he had been intentionally cutting himself with sharp rocks-maybe hoping to ease some of the emotional pain that he was enduring.

WEST HAM boss Sam Allardyce will rush Jack Collison back into the first team today in a bid to ease their injury crisis.
The midfield ace, 24, has been out crocked since the Championship play-off final against Blackpool in May with a long-term knee problem that will need to be carefully managed for the rest of his career.
But he completed his latest comeback by playing 45 minutes for the development squad against Norwich this week and is in line for an early recall against Everton.
With Ricardo Vaz Te, George McCartney, Alou Diarra, Yossi Benayoun, Andy Carroll and Mohamed Diame all out until the New Year, Big Sam could only name six subs for the 0-0 draw at West Brom last Sunday.
And only two of those had Premier League experience.
And with that in mind, assistant manager Neil McDonald confirmed Collison is likely to be on the bench for the clash at Upton Park despite wanting to ease him back gently.
He said: "Jack needs more games and time on the training pitch but no doubt he'll come in to the squad as we need him.
"We had one less sub on Sunday so if he gets through training it wouldn't surprise me if he's on the bench.
"We have other players that could possibly come on but if we need him we know he can come on for a short space of time and even if he's not 100 per cent match fit he'll put pressure on everyone else.
"He's important to us as he's a good player. He scores goals as well as creating them.
"He is a positive lad and wants to play. Yes, he's had problems before but in my time here I've never heard one person say he should call it day.
"He's proved, with hard work and dedication, you can come back."
The Hammers face an Everton side who have gained many admirers under David Moyes. McDonald added: "I think they are a model for any club."

I can see the humanity he's talking about.
The LPGA Is Better Than PGA
By Kickntrue on 7/11/07
Our title is the claim Detriot Free Press author Carlos Monarrez makes in this linked article. After covering LPGA events Monarrez thinks the women bring more humanity to the game and it makes it more fun. Fair argument, though I'm sure most would not agree. I've got to say- watching (looking at) Paula Creamer IS more fun than watching Tiger. (FullStory)

Love this!
Its not made with soybean oil which is awesome. My 11month old son had looked forward to his daily drop since he was about 6mo old. I have tried a drop and it is pretty tasteless it just makes your tongue feel a little numb-like for a second. The bottle lasts. My only down side to it is the dropper is built into the lid so sometimes my son takes his tongue back before the drop comes out.
- Courtney
Easy to use
My daughters doctor told us we needed to give her some D3 to help with her levels. This brand is easy to use and has helped with her levels tremendously. She is doing great and the dropper is easy to use. I just give her a drop in the morning (because she nurses) it's great!

Entrepreneur David Lynd seeks to stage big music event
David Lynd is building quite the eclectic career. The real estate executive and pro football team owner wants to create a more cosmopolitan vibe in the heart of the nation's seventh largest city — through music.
Lynd is looking to build off of the early success he and his partners had on the entertainment front with the Wavefront Music Festival in Chicago. He is working to bring a similar event — minus the sand — to downtown San Antonio.
The plan is to develop a multi-stage, multi-day festival in the Alamo City featuring a variety of musical genres. Such an event could attract tens of thousands of local residents and tourists, boosting efforts already under way to create more activity in San Antonio's center city.
"We've already gone through this. We know how to put something like this together, how to manage the event and book the artists," says Lynd, who is president and chief operations officer for The Lynd Co., a San Antonio-based real estate management and development firm.
Lynd is also chief visionary officer for a separate venture, EnV Productions, which teamed up with a Chicago partner, 4 Headed Productions, to launch the Wavefront festival in the Windy City. He says that San Antonio would see big benefits from a similar event.
"We know what it could mean for San Antonio to get this kind of exposure," Lynd says.
EnV officials have begun preliminary talks with the City of San Antonio, Lynd explains. The company will need to clear some logistical hurdles before it can launch a major festival in the Alamo City, but Lynd is confident this will happen. He says the St. Anthony Hotel and surrounding park space could serve as a base camp for a San Antonio music festival. BC Lynd Hospitality, a subsidiary of The Lynd Co., acquired the downtown hotel last year.
Downtown exposure
There is support from key downtown stakeholders for such an event.
"Something like this could be fabulous for downtown," says Ben Brewer, president of Downtown Alliance San Antonio.
"Typically, these events attract a large number of locals," Brewer adds. "Our real focus is to get locals to use downtown on a more frequent basis."
EnV staged its inaugural Wavefront festival in Chicago last year. The 2013 festival is scheduled for July 5-7 along Lake Michigan — on Montrose Beach.
Lynd, who also owns the Arena Football League's San Antonio Talons franchise, has not revealed financial figures for the 2012 festival. But he says the artist budget for the 2013 event will be roughly $1.5 million.
Ticket sales for the 2013 Wavefront festival are brisk, already exceeding last year's total, according to festival organizer Brandon Carone.
"Our festival is on track to double last year's attendance to more than 60,000 fans," Carone says.
Festival promoters have struck a deal with AXS-TV — a network involving Mark Cuban Companies, Ryan Seacrest Media and others — to broadcast part of the 2013 Wavefront festival nationally. Lynd says EnV could secure similar exposure for a San Antonio festival.
Right time
The San Antonio Spurs' parent company, Spurs Sports & Entertainment (SS&E), jumped into the music festival business this spring. SS&E teamed up with entertainment company AEG to launch the River City Rockfest in May — on the grounds of AT&T Center.
"The goal is to grow this into a multi-day event with a variety of acts that will appeal to a broad audience," SS&E President Rick Pych says.
"This wasn't about putting together a one-year show," says AEG Marketing Director Scott Strong. "This is the first of many, many years. When people talk about big festivals ... we want River City Rockfest to be part of that (conversation)."
Lynd says there is room for a downtown festival. He adds that EnV officials are considering staging such an event later in the calendar year, possibly in October — with a diverse entertainment lineup.
"We need to work through the details with the city," Lynd explains. "And we need to decide when to do this.
"The idea is to utilize really unique spaces downtown," he adds.
EnV Productions may look to stage a single-day festival in year one so that everyone involved can "work out the logistics," Lynd says. But he adds that the ultimate goal is to turn this into a multi-day event.
Depending on the scale of a San Antonio music festival and the entertainment lineup, Brewer expects it could attract a large number of visitors to the city.
"This could draw people from other major metropolitan areas. So we are very supportive of this idea," he says. "This could be huge."
Lynd says EnV went to Chicago first because there were fewer logistical challenges. But the plan now is to bring such an event to Lynd's headquarters city.
"It's all about timing," he says. "We feel San Antonio is ready for this now."

The streets weren't safe anymore; they hadn't been for a long time, but that didn't stop me. I was fucking hungry, and the flesh-eaters were becoming a real pain in the ass when I was trying to satisfy this never-ending gnawing that reverberated throughout my body and drove splinters into my bones. That's the only way I can accurately describe it: agony.
The human I was following thought that he was alone, but then again so did I. I had no idea that someone was watching me; a side effect of the hunger. My senses weren't as alert as they should be and I was focussed solely on this walking sack of blood in front of me. He kept to the shadows and I could see the unmistakable outline of a gun hanging in his trembling grip. He emanated waves of fear and nerves and it made my mouth water.
It was dark now and a part of me had to question what the guy was doing all alone by himself, did he really think he could handle the danger that was rife now? Then I decided that I didn't care. He just made it all the more easy for me. I was gaining on him; he was just a few yards away now. Stretching out my hand, my fingertips grazed the hood of his jacket until something wrapped itself round my waist and I was being hauled backwards. Before I could react, a meaty hand clamped over my mouth and another pair of hands gripped my flailing legs.
'We got her, take her over there!' a gruff voice instructed. Disorientated and pissed off, I struggled in the grip of these men to no avail. I was just too weak.
They threw me roughly to the ground and I cried out in surprise. Two guys, both well-built and stocky glared at me. One licked his lips.
'She's not a bad one,' his eyes trailed over my body slowly, lingering on my chest.
'Oh you have got to be kidding me,' I muttered, rolling my eyes.
'Bitch who said you could talk?' a fist came flying to my face out of nowhere and I was knocked back to the ground again. Stars danced in my vision and I could taste blood in my mouth.
'You do what we tell you!'
Oh fuck this.
I stood up slowly. One of the men tried to grab me again but I caught his hand in mine and began to squeeze slowly.
He cried out in pain and the look of shock in their eyes was almost worth getting hit. The shock morphed into realization which then morphed into pure, unadulterated fear and I couldn't help the grin that stretched across my face. 'That's right, you know what I am now don't you?'
The pathetic bastard whimpered beneath me and the other one started to run away. The strength flooded back to me though as I realized what a good time I was about to have. I hadn't done this in ages! I picked up the lid of a nearby dustbin and flung it with one hand at the human. It knocked him out cold and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
'Oh shoot,' I frowned. 'I'll have to wait until he wakes up now.'
Bones crunched in my grip and the guy gave an almighty bellow as I broke his hand. I smiled at him. 'You and me are gonna have fun though. You may have made my meal get away but I think I can manage with what I have here. I'm freaking hungry.'
'P-please,' he started to beg.
'Don't take it personally it's just... actually, yes. Do take it personally.'
I let the hunger consume me then and I felt myself changing.
'God I'm going to enjoy this.'

New York, Nov 9 (ANI): Former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf has accused PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif of having amassed over one billion dollars in ill-gotten wealth.
Addressing a gathering of Pakistanis at a New Jersey hotel, Musharraf claimed that the money had been stashed in bank accounts in London, and was looked after by Sharif's son, the Dawn reported.
He also asserted that if he returned to power, he would try the Sharifs in a court of law.
The former general, who had ousted the former prime minister in a coup in 1999, observed that Sharif will "never be allowed to assume seat of power in Pakistan after his confrontation with the army in 1999."
This is for the second time in two days that the APML leader has severely criticised Sharif. Earlier, responding to threats of lawsuit incessantly posed by the former premier, Musharraf had said, "As Nawaz knows that he will neither regain power nor will he be able to try me in a court of law, therefore, he resorts to blowing this trumpet time and again."
When asked by a person in the audience why had he been keeping quiet about the alleged corruption of President Asif Ali Zardari who also milked the country of billion of dollars, Musharraf replied, "The PPP government was under fire and I do not want to put more pressure on it."
The former general also rejected rumours of a split between his newly formed All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) and MQM. "We have no differences," he said.
The organisers of the event kept journalists away from Musharraf, and did not allow them to ask any question. (ANI)

text: I have everything ready to go to make enchiladas for the freezer. I have read conflicting reports on if to freeze with or without the sauce and cheese. I would prefer to make them as I would normally but instead of baking, pop in the freezer. Several websites said though that this will turn them into a giant pile of mush. Will it be that bad? And do I put the cheese on before or after freezing. Finally if I can freeze with the sauce do I use the same amount, less or more of the sauce when freezing? Thank you!
