GLEN ELLYN, IL -- Qualifying tournaments for the sixth annual Big Buck World Championship begin on Sept. 8. The finals will take place in Chicago, where more than $50,000 in prize money will be up for grabs.
The qualifying tournament that kicks off in early September takes place in bars and other coin-op locations through Oct. 13. Participating machines, connected to the Internet, will find the 64 best players from round the globe who will be invited to Chicago for the two-day championship weekend. The finals will take place in early November.
Last year's virtual shootout made history in New York City in lower Manhattan on Nov. 9 and 10 -- only a few days after the area's power was returned following Superstorm Sandy. Chris Fream, 29, of Minneapolis won the match, taking home Pappy's Jug, the Big Buck trophy, and $15,000. | SEE STORY
This year's extravaganza will again host the Big Buck Ladies Tournament, with a top prize of $5,000; ladies' qualifiers start on Sept. 8, too. Sara Erlandson of Beldenville, WI, was the winner of last year's second-annual Ladies Tournament.
"The sixth annual Big Buck World Championship and Ladies Tourney will be coming home to Chicago with an increased prize pool and, if you can imagine, an even bigger, more robust event to include more activities for friends and fans that are not competing," said Play Mechanix's Dave Snipes, who manages the event. "If you've never been to the World Championship there's no better time to start. If you're a repeat guest, prepare to be blown away."
During this year's qualification period for men, there will be five different tournaments in which players compete. Each will feature a different animal, and they are open for competition throughout the five weeks; players must participate in each one to appear on the main leaderboard. And a "two-trek tournament" must be concluded for each animal. More information on qualifying is available here.
Big Buck Hunter is an arcade videogame that was created by Play Mechanix and published by Raw Thrills. The first game was released in 2000. The latest, Big Buck HD, combines elements from two popular versions, Big Buck Hunter Pro and Big Buck Safari, and renders the amalgamation in high-definition. It hit the streets in 2012.

Each family member has an important role to play. I teach families how to recognize each others' strengths and learn to work together toward common goals. Without blaming or scapegoating, families can move beyond a place of being stuck in unhealthy behavior patterns, each taking responsibility for his/her own actions and recognizing how he/she influences the family dynamic.

Mother - daughter counseling is a speciality area at Girls Stand Strong. Whether your daughter (or mother) is old or young, learning some communication strategies and have a third person to mediate can be extremely beneficial. Navigating through those tumultuous teen years is not easy. Parent / child relationships often suffer. It's amazing to see the positive results in mother/daughter relationships after a few sessions. Please reach out for some support and guidance.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Borders Group executive VP and chief merchandising officer Michele Cloutier has resigned, Borders said in a late afternoon Friday filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
It is the latest in a string of high-level departures from the bookseller as it struggles to emerge from bankruptcy protection.
On Thursday, the company received a deadline extension until mid-October to file a plan to restructure. An attorney for Borders said parts of the company could be sold in as quickly as two weeks.

NORWALK - Five local streets between Carmenita Road and Shoemaker Avenue will be closed through August, starting today, as part of the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) widening project, officials said.
The closed roads include Dinard, Maryton, Fidel, Painter and Gracebee avenues at North Firestone Boulevard, said Maria Raptis, a spokeswoman with the California Department of Transportation.
North Firestone Boulevard must be realigned to accommodate the I-5 widening, she said.
In neighboring Santa Fe Springs, Molette Street is permanently closed at Carmenita Road.
Apart from adding an extra carpool and general purpose lanes, the Carmenita Road Interchange Project involves reconstructing the Carmenita Road bridge from a two-lane steel structure to a 10-lane concrete structure with new ramps and realigning and upgrading frontage roads.

Get more sales and click-throughs when you buy targeted traffic. Visitors to your website aren't worth much unless they are looking for what you are offering. Unfortunately the many ways to get interested visitors which involves pay-per-click (PPC), advertising, sponsorship, database marketing and other offline methods are extremely expensive. Thankfully we have the answer for you. We categorize expired domains and directory listings so that when someone clicks on an expired domain of a website that was previously dealing with "Debt Consolidation" then you will get people who are interested in that subject – giving you a higher chance of closing a sale or getting a click-through.
Its for professional online marketers and SEOs who
Where does the targeted traffic come from?
Like our Untargeted traffic, this Targeted website traffic comes from expired domain links and also directory links – all nicely categorized into more than 100 niches. For example, we have thousands of expired domains and directory links pertaining to "Loan Consolidation" because these domains used to serve websites containing loan consolidation content. We also sort visitors according by specific country.BONUS! Unlike our Untargeted traffic, These are ESSENTIALS for the Super Marketer requiring rigorous and constant campaign adjustments. Our targeted traffic is for heavy hitters how have tried advertising, PPC, traffic exchanges, sponsorships, directing postings and natural rankings but feel this is by far the best and fastest way to test concepts and get results.
Yes the price is higher we admit. But our legions of satisfied customers all attest: "Its Quality! Its Profitable! Its Worth Every Penny!"
It does not matter what you do online. As long as you need visitors to convert into sales or clicks – we are confident it WILL WORK for you if you own an online store, a service site, a "real world" business needing sales, an affiliate site or you don't even have your own site. Many of our most successful clients are full time affiliates who don't even own websites. You can simply use the Plimus, Clickbank or any CPA generated URL. You can even do masking using shortened URLs like bit.ly.
If for whatever reason it doesn't convert for you – simply let us know, we will provide you with tune-ups, upgrades and solutions that will satisfy you – that is the level of customer service we guarantee.
This is targeted website traffic on Turbo Mode
This is high performance targeted website traffic which is absolutely different from untargeted traffic.

It could not have been easier! I will have to admit their customer service is beyond anything I have ever seen.
"Firstly, I have to say GetWebsiteTraffic is a very professional company. As I have never purchased website traffic before I was quite skeptical in getting into this as I was unsure about the process. However, thanks to GetWebsiteTraffic it was a total breeze to increase targeted web site traffic. Upon signing up, I received emails with all my account and login information, where to go and what to do. It could not have been easier! I will have to admit their customer service is beyond anything I have ever seen. They were very prompt in answering and resolving my concerns. Sometimes literally in minutes! Needless to say, this is the foremost reason I am happy I chose (and will keep) GetWebsiteTraffic for my needs." – Satish Haram, LiteMediaEntertainment

Q> What is your source?
A> Yes we use expired domains to generate the hits. What does that mean? Every single day, thousands of domains which were getting website hits cease to exist and their domain registrations allowed to expire. We have a network of sources which harvest them and sort them according to their category. So for example if a domain is drawing hundreds of eyeballs from people interested in used cars everyday and you need visitors to your website interested in used cars, we will redirect these visits to your site.
Q> What are the similarities between your Targeted Traffic and Organic Traffic?
A> Here are the similarities:
1. both send you visitors from expired domains
2. both will not allow for sites that break out of frames, load viruses/trojans or malware, allow for content promoting racism, hatred, violence and defamation, and should not take more than 5 seconds to load
Q> What are the differences between your Targeted Traffic and Organic Traffic?
A> With targeted traffic the benefits are:
a) allows URLs to redirect, rotate, forward
b) allows pop-ups and exit prompts (1 max)
c) allows websites to play sound on load
d) d) you can target by Country, Category, Rate of Visits per Day, so for example you can get USA visitors to your website for the category Income Opportunities at 500 visitors per day
e) you can do split-test marketing for all the perimeters: URL/Country/Category/Rate so long as each campaign has at least 5,000 credits
f) you can change perimeters as often as you like whereas for Organic it costs $2.50 in administrative fees
g) you get the discounts as advertised
h) you get closer technical support for your campaign and more flexibility of terms
Q> I need bulk USA traffic as well as high volume visits from other countries. Can I get extremely high daily rates of delivery such as 100,000 visitors to my website?
A> We can do that for USA, Canada, United Kingdom and Germany depending on the prevailing conditions which include major customers hogging up the bulk of these traffic. For most other countries its 2,000 visitors per day.
Q> Do you have pop-up and pop-under traffic?
A> Yes we do. Please use the contact form to enquire as these are priced differently and not available on this page.
Q> Compared to other online advertising methods such as PPC, banner advertising and sponsorship – is your method better?
A> Our cost per hit is extremely low cost because we deal with millions of website visitors from, so much so that a visitor may cost as little as $0.00056. Compare that with a competitive keyword for PPC which may cost as much as $20. For sure, the web traffic quality is not on par but by the law of SHEER numbers we have produced great results for clients.
While our traffic has converted for customers and many have kindly come forward to provide testimonials which we are unable to verify and some have been provided with incentives for their effort, obtaining results and profits using our traffic cannot be guaranteed. It will depend on a lot of factors including the way your website is setup, your offers as well as the traffic matrix you are choosing. We provide highly responsive customer support and will help you find the best possible solutions failing which we will be sure to get you remedies including refunds for credits unused and equivalent-value service exchanges that we are confident that you will be satisfied with. Note that many of our clients who succeed with our traffic may have done so after testing and tweaking their websites and our traffic specifications. Earnings indicated in the testimonials cannot be used as guarantees or indications of the results you will get. Results will vary for website to website. We provide real visitors and have many customers who obtain results but we need to stress that this is not a get-rich-quick avenue. Our services are for serious Internet marketers who want to explore workable methods for monetizing their web ventures and understand that as with all methods, a certain degree of testing and tweaking is required without the absolute guarantee of success.

Brevard, N.C. - Kameron Armacost and Ron Patterson staked Joseph Lepore to a two run lead and the sophomore pitched six shutout innings as the Tornados defeated the Rams in the first game of the doubleheader, 4-3. However, a complete game four-hitter by Winston-Salem State's John Markley prevented the sweep as the Rams took game two, 6-1.
The Tornados move to 7-9 on the season, while Winston-Salem State moves to 12-7.
Game One: Brevard 4, Winston-Salem State 3
Box Score
Patterson had a pair of RBIs and Armacost hit the first BC triple of the season to stake the Tornados to an early 2-0 lead and Brevard held off a late rally by the Rams to win the first game of the doubleheader, 4-3.
The game was scoreless until the bottom of the third. Derek Ham drew a one-out walk off WSSU starter Brice Rivenbark (1-2), giving way to Armacost who worked a 2-2 count before driving the ball down the right field line, scoring Ham from first before pulling up at third with a stand-up triple. Ron Patterson followed with a double down the left field line, scoring Armacost, but despite putting runners on first and third with one out, Brevard was unable to break the game open, settling for the 2-0 lead.
The Tornados added another run in the fourth as Ethan Pressley jumped on the first pitch from Rivenbark, pulling it to right centerfield and over the fence for his first home run of the season, putting Brevard up 3-0.
Brevard plated an all-important insurance run in the sixth as Myers led off the inning with a walk. He advanced to second on Ham's infield grounder before coming home on Patterson's base hit through the left side of the infield, putting the Tornados up 4-0 heading into the final inning.
Michael Robbins led off the top of the seventh with a base hit to straightaway centerfield to greet BC reliever Jacob Koontz and advanced to second on a passed ball. Robbins came around to score on Rivenbark's single to left field, putting the first WSSU run on the board. After Koontz retired Andrew Miller, Scott Wells followed with a double down the left field line scoring Rivenbark and Tyler Hickernell cut the deficit down to one run with a base hit back up the middle to score Wells.
Dustin Haithcox came in from the bullpen and the lefty sidearm hurler retired the final two Winston-Salem State batters to end the game in recording his second save of the season.
Lepore (1-0) allowed only four hits in six inning, while striking out three in recording his first win of the season.
Game Two: Winston-Salem State 6, Brevard 1
Box Score
The Tornados took the lead in the top of the first, but WSSU starter Markley (4-0) allowed only one hit the rest of the way as Rivenbark drove in three runs as the Rams earned the split against Brevard with the 6-1 victory.
Pressley followed Patterson's double down the left field line with a single to right field as Brevard opened up the scoring in the bottom of the first inning, going up 1-0.
The Rams tied the game up in the fourth against BC reliever Casey Burnette (0-1) as Robbins and Wells opened the inning with back-to-back singles before Jonathan Wells brought home Robbins with a run-scoring grounder to even the score.
The Rams would plate two runs in both of the fifth and sixth innings and added a late insurance run in the sixth, with Rivenbark driving in three of the four runs and Dominique Fitzgerald recorded three stolen bases as the Rams defeated the Tornados, 6-1.
Brevard goes back into conference play this weekend as they head to Hickory, N.C. and the Lenoir-Rhyne Baseball Stadium as they take on Lenoir-Rhyne University in a three game weekend series. First pitch of the series is on Friday, March 4th, at 6 p.m.

Report: MTV cancels 'Buckwild' after cast member's death
MTV has decided to stop production on "Buckwild" for good in the wake of star Shain Gandee's sudden death earlier this month. A network source tells Deadline.com that they couldn't see any way to continue the controversial hit series without the 21-year-old even though there is reportedly enough footage for several more episodes.
MTV stopped filming "Buckwild" on April 1st after Gandee and two others were found dead from carbon monoxide poisoning in a car near Sissonville, West Virginia. Known as "the 'Jersey Shore' of Appalachia," the show debuted back in January, and was renewed for a second season in February.
Almost two-and-a-half-million people watched the premiere of "Buckwild," which is more than the number of viewers who tuned in to the first episode of the original "Jersey Shore" back in 2009. But there were several issues surrounding the show. Many West Virginians didn't want it on the air in the first place, and two of the show's nine cast members were arrested on drug possession and DUI charges.

Flight sixty-two over the Bible from 30,000 Feet will give a sky high view over three small but concise books, 2 & 3 John and Jude. While all three books have a different primary focus, all are written with the purpose to encourage the church to keep a strong biblical foundation. This study will take us through the importance of biblical discernment, the need to be in fellowship with other believers, as well as the vital need to keep strong in the faith. The key chapters to review are 2 & 3 John, and Jude.
DESTINATION: 2 John
Second John has much in common with First John, including a warning about the danger of false teachers who deny the incarnation of Jesus Christ. John encourages the readers to continue walking in love but exhorts them to be discerning in their expression of love. He cautions them about receiving heretics into their homes or churches.
c. 85-95 A.D. - 2 John written
Second John is addressed to an "elect lady" and her children. Some scholars believe the address should be taken literally to refer to a specific woman and her children, while others prefer to take it as a figurative description of a local church.
No specific geographical places are mentioned in 2 John.
The Elect Lady -- This may have been a particular Christian woman and those who met in her house to worship God. If so, this is a more personal letter than First John.
If the "chosen lady" is a figurative way of designating a particular church, then the "chosen sister" of v.13 would mean a different church, or "sister" congregation.
DESTINATION: 3 John
Third John was written because of reports from an Asian church that a man named Diotrephes has seized power, had rejected the teachers sent out by John, and was expelling those in his church who wanted to receive them.
c. 85-95 A.D. - 3rd John written
Third John stresses the theme of enjoying and continuing to have fellowship with fellow believers, especially full-time Christian workers. The truth and servanthood of Gaius, who had shown hospitality to Johns teachers, is contrasted with the error and selfishness of Diotrephes, whose arrogance and lack of hospitality were evidence of blindness to God.
No specific geographical places are mentioned in 3 John.
Gaius -- He is spoken of as "the beloved," "walking in the truth," and doing "a faithful work."
Diotrephes -- Mentioned in as contentiously resisting the writer's authority and forbidding others from exercising the Christian hospitality which he himself refused to show.
Demetrius -- Nothing is known about him, other than Paul writes he is well spoken of.
DESTINATION: Jude
Jude wrote this letter in an effort to remind the church of the need for constant vigilance--to keep strong in the faith and to oppose heresy. He wrote to motivate Christians everywhere to action, to recognize the dangers of false teaching, to protect themselves and other believers, and to win back those who had already been deceived. He was writing against godless teachers who were saying that Christians could do as they pleased without fear of God's punishment.
c. 66-90 A.D. - Writing of the epistle of Jude
Jude warns against false teachers and leaders who reject the lordship of Christ, undermine the faith of others, and lead them astray. He also warns against apostasy, the turning away from Christ. Those who do seek to know the truth in God's Word are susceptible to apostasy. Christians must guard against any false teachings that would distract them from the truth preached by the apostles and written in God's Word.
No geographical places are mentioned in Jude.
Jude -- The epistle is titled as written by "Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James" (NRSV). If taken literally this means that the author claims to be a brother of Jesus, an attribution which is now increasingly considered as the most probable.
The debate has continued over the author's identity as the apostle, the brother of Jesus, both, or neither. The author does not identify himself as an apostle, so some argue that he cannot be the Jude who is listed as one of the twelve. Others draw exactly the opposite conclusion, i.e., as Jude was an apostle, he would not have made such a claim on his own behalf. The writer is sometimes identified as another Jude, named as a brother of Jesus (Matthew 13:55; Mark 6:3).

The top reasons consumers gave for using food trucks related to availability of "interesting" foods and convenience, which are the traditional strengths of QSR outlets, according to NPD. Since the top foods typically offered by food trucks are hot sandwiches, Mexican foods, cold sandwiches, and soups, Mexican and sandwich QSR places may view food trucks as more direct competition than other restaurant categories. Dayparts are another way in which food trucks compete with QSR outlets since the trucks are primarily used for lunch and snacking, which is likely due to the specific location and the food/beverage/snack items offered, finds NPD.
Although quick service restaurants have more reason than full service operators to be concerned about the prevalence and location of food trucks, another finding of the survey is that while some consumers are regular users, many make purchases from food trucks only very occasionally. Over half of those aware of food trucks in their area say they purchase from them once every two to three months or less often. Further, ordinances and permits vary from city to city, with many municipalities placing considerable restrictions on location and food offerings. In certain parts of the country the weather and season also limit food truck availability outside of the spring/summer months.
"For now at least, food trucks need not be viewed as a threat to restaurant demand nationally," says Bonnie Riggs, NPD restaurant industry analyst. "However, in markets with a developed food truck presence, QSR operators may wish to take note of the benefits food trucks offer, such as different and fresh food, especially as a means to build their snack business and/or protect lunch traffic."

It s kind of disheartening to think that after decades of playing shows together the NFL was so worried something would go wrong that they wouldn't let Red Hot Chili Peppers play their instruments. After being called out during the telecast for not even having their instruments plugged in, Flea admitted yesterday that the vocals were live but all the music had been pre-recorded in case something went wrong.
Here is my take on that. If there was horrible weather then of course you want to be protected because you are giving a show to the people at home. The people in the stadium are more concerned with getting something to eat or going to the bathroom. You want it to be perfect for television. So, you pre-record everything and if something goes wrong you can use that track but if everything is going well then just let the people play. Let there be some spontaneity. I feel like the Super Bowl halftime show is turning into an episode of Solid Gold. Google it sometime but it was a show that featured "performances" from bands and singers that sounded remarkably like their records without any of the instruments or singers being plugged in. In the background a bunch of dancers who were castoffs from Flashdance shimmied in the background.
I have seen the Red Hot Chili Peppers play in arenas, clubs and huge stadiums. They never had an issue bringing it. They are not Britney Spears. They really don't need help. They know what they are doing and sometimes the NFL should just let the people who know what they are doing let them do it.

Capital Markets Resource Center
Regulatory Capital, Asset Liability Management, Investment Portfolio and Derivatives Activities Supervisory Resources
The Division of Risk Management Supervision's Capital Markets Branch provides the following pages as an informational resource for bankers and other interested parties on a variety of key capital markets issues.
Several topics have new rules and guidance standards, such as new regulatory capital rules that became effective for all banks January 1, 2015, and the Volcker Rule, which generally prohibits banking entities from engaging in proprietary trading and from investing in, sponsoring, or having certain relationships with a hedge fund, private equity fund, or similar fund. The Volcker Rule, derivatives reforms and other subject areas are associated with Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (DFA) reforms.
These resources should give community bankers a centralized toolkit to help them understand new requirements, recent developments and key outstanding rules and guidance. For example, some resources include training videos with presentation slides and helpful "Frequently Asked Questions" documents.
It is important to note that links to international standards and papers issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision are provided for reference. These standards do not represent the domestic rules and regulations, but the U.S. federal banking agencies and at times, other domestic regulators participate in setting these standards and consider them when developing U.S. rules.
The information contained on the Capital Markets Resource Center web pages and its links is not an exhaustive recap of all guidance issued, but should provide community bankers a good basis for understanding existing standards, pending requirements and supervisory expectations.

While I do agree with wanting APPLE to have it's entire production base here in the USA. I don't think Hoffa knows what he is talking about when it comes to business. If the motor company would stop and look at how they run business and the teamsters would get their nose out of politics then perhaps they could concentrate on how to create "useful" jobs. They should keep their hand in their own cookie jar!
Lastly the fool should look at the production of where his base gets it's products more than 50% overseas! What a looser/hipocrite. I'll leave the "drug use" and other issues they have out of this rant...
Well darn....maybe if Union workers didn't demand to be paid 10x more than what they should be paid to drill in a screw or push a button on an assembly line then Apple would consider operations in America. But with the cheap labor China offers it's hard to compete against that.
And why would a successful competative company want to do that?!?! America is great at producing, especially when it comes to building weapons of defense. We are the best in that catagory! Last time I checked, America was not a communist country that can force a company to build in America. This guy needs a reality check.
Exactly, and well put! We or they did it to themselves and are now complaining from the result of what has transpired over years of union crap. Don't get me wrong unions are good for some but not all.
Agree. I love my country but it's not like apl is making iPhones that power military rockets. A business is there for profit nothing else!
If companies always focus first and foremost on US, then they run risk (higher costs, etc) of going out of business. How much help to the country will those companies be when they are banckrupt &/or out of business?
Why do "you" use words like "obligation"? Haffa, unions have their place but as a representative of your union, to speak about how companies have obligations in the capacity you reference weakens your voice and that of unions.
Again, would you rather these companies just go out of business? If we are talking about the US government or government agencies setting up shop overseas, fine, but you are way off base and speaking, quite frankly, stupidly.
We need to get some of this manufacturing back in the US. Read about Foxconn beginning to deploy more robots in the manufacturing process getting rid of workers. The US can build robots and factories as well. I for one would pay more for a US made phone, maybe not hundreds of dollars more but a premium for sure. The president needs to make it easier to build these factories in the US and get the jobs here, even if it's just building robots which by the way Foxconn is already using many US built robots.
If anything it should be cheaper since it is made in your own country. But that wouldn't make sense would it. Neither does 80% of Canadian Alberta Oil being sent straight to the USA. Doesn't make sense.. but it still. (dont quote 80% rough estimate.)
This guy gives unions a bad image. When's the last time you read Apple laying-off employees? I haven't. Could you imagine how much iDevices would cost the consumers if it was all made and manufactured state-side? Apple would never be able to meet the demands. It sucks but that's how the cookie crumbles.
Y would any company want to build a factory here in the US?? First off. Americans are lazy... Second, its going to be more expensive.
If Apple wanted to build a factory here where all these rules and regulations are then they would barely make a profit. Think about it. You have to waste your material this way. You have to pay employee benefits of at least this amount and you have to give them all healthcare.. On top of that. Because we are all lazy, then Apple would have to employ more people just to get the same production that they could get from a work force with less people. I also believe the quality of the product will also go down because also, Americans as a hole take the shortcuts. It just wouldn't work.. I agree that Apple should do something. But didn't they get their cameras that they used in the iPhone 4 from an American company?? Not to mention all the thousands of employees they have hired at the headquarters and at Apple Stores all across America.. But i guess thats just not good enough...
Now that I think about it.. America isn't even a tech country. Name another worldwide tech company (not microsoft) that does everything here.. Samsung? Sony? Nintendo? LG?.. We can't even get internet to every home in America. and your asking them to start building all their complicated and high quality products here in America??
The situation is the same here in the UK, even London taxi cabs are now made in china.
If America didn't regulate the companies away from the U.S. & we traded goods fairly both ways we wouldn't be the sinking ship that America has become. We are driving the companies away then we cry about it. America has some tough times ahead of it, really tough times.
That being said I believe it is un-American to dump millions/billions into foreign countries economies. I believe there should be a hefty import tax on any item coming into this county "made" by an American company. Sure we would pay more for our little idevices but that's something I'd be willing to do. Now I'll sit back and watch all the other posters rail against organized labor and how evil it is..... of course the the middle class is disappearing and the wage discrepansy between working stiffs and CEO's is larger than it has ever been but no biggie, we don't need any one on the side of the workers.
First off, Foxconn pays substandard wages, has dangerous working conditions, and is incredibly environmentally irresponsible.
Second, Not all companies deal with unions and not all union workers get paid undeserved wages.
Third, Yes business is meant o make money but How much money is too much...There is a point when a company is cutting too many corners and being too greedy...Profit is whats left after expenses are paid that includes salaries, research costs, marketing, etc...its the gravy left over...now does a company like Apple really need to have BILLIONS of profit left over every year or could they maybe cut that down a bit and bring jobs back to the US...So a few insane Apple nuts can wait a few extra months for the brand new iPhone to replace their not so old iPhone...
It is definitely unpatriotic to be more concerned about making that extra 20 Billion Dollars in profit every year then creating jobs here in the US...
Companies have been doing well financially in the US for longer then Apple has been around ...and all without off-shoring their entire operation...

Retailers get official letter: 'Don't sell cigarettes'
(NEWSER) – Attorneys general have a message for America's major retailers: It's time to stop selling cigarettes. A bipartisan group of attorneys general yesterday sent letters to five of the biggest retailers—Walmart, Kroger, Rite Aid, Safeway, and Walgreen—urging them to follow CVS's lead and pull tobacco products from the shelves entirely, NPR reports. Ohio's Mike DeWine and New York's Eric Schneiderman led the charge of attorneys general from 28 states, including Arizona and Illinois. "There is a contradiction in having these dangerous and devastating tobacco products on the shelves of a retail chain that services health care needs," they wrote.

Hi guys,
I've finally managed to get m0n0wall running on an old Strongbox
firewall using a pc104 motherboard. Its been tough, but I've managed to
get it running using the generic PC image and by tracking down network
cards with the same chipsets I have been able to configure the hard disk
with the right settings and get as far as the web console. Not bad
considering I haven't got any cables for this thing and it doesn't have
a keyboard, serial, vga or any other port for me to touch it or look at
Now, we have another 2 of these Strongboxes and I would like to be able
to send my colleague an image of what I've got working as a file, to
transfer to the disks that he has at his end. I presume that this can
also be jiggled to prevent settings being lost completely - using the
reset mechanism - if I copy the config.xml into the right place before I
image it.
Is it as simple as using the rest of the hard disk to create a space to
store the image in and then downloading it from there? If so, is there a
how-to already?
TIA for your advice,
David Hardy

If Amerson falls that low then the Steelers need to jump on him. The Jeffcoat pick is understandable but I would love Amerson there instead. I like Johnson there in the third a lot.

I really can't see us taking a QB in the 3rd. If Brandon Weeden is successful enough that he does not warrant replacement in the first, then I imagine we'll stick with whats on our roster.
We have our starter, we have our backup, we have our developmental project (Thad Lewis). Honestly, unless we end up picking 1 or 2, I dont expect we'll draft a QB unless we bring in a 7th rounder.
Drafting an "Ohio" QB just to draft one in the third wont really be helpful. The new owner wont need a QB like that to bring in fans so I would expect us to get another defensive back (especially if Heckert is still around), another pass rusher or a Tight End

Zac isn't the case of drafting an Ohio Quarterback to be an Ohio Quarterback, and since this has moved up into the late first round in my grading system. I don't believe in Weeden and have a feeling if things are blown up inside as some are speculating could happen, a Quarterback to have if Weeden doesn't pan out is going to be needed. But it this isn't valid, he won't be there when you guys pick next, so its moot.

Good Bengals picks, but I would go for a SS over Alex Okafor. Carlos Dunlap and Michael Johnson are good starters, the Bengals need depth at the position, and you can find depth outside of the top 40, or even the top 3 rounds.

I would be happy with it.
But I think Werner in the first would be better since we have no depth on the dl. And we have 3 capable starting corners already in Rogers brown and cully.
Also think chase Thomas at the top of the third and then ertz or toilollo at the bottom of the third.
Other needs would be safety, guard, center, tackle, dt

Don't know if it was intentional or acciedental on your part, but I'd say the likelihood of the Chargers drafting 3 straight DB's isn't very good.
Banks in the 1st round is good. No need to change that one. But CB's in two straight rounds... yeah, not so much. I'd say probably either Chase Thomas or Cornellius Carradine; normally I'd say that Tavon Austin would be a great value pick there as well, but with Malcom Floyd now extended our Top 3 on the DC is pretty well set. Wouldn't be opposed to the pick, just not sure how much he'd see the field; by that argument I'd soon take Short and work him as a project NT that Cam Thomas has thus far failed to develop into. Even AJ giving up on Jonas Mouton after two years and spending the pick on Nico Johnson or Alex Ogletree seems more likely.
Williams in the 3rd I just can't see. AJ burned a 4th round pick on Darrell Stuckey and gave him at least 2 seasons past his rookie year to prove he wasn't going to be the guy before drafting someone else. I honestly don't believe that AJ was expecting a ton out of Brandon Taylor this year; and in a sense he was right as he's yet to be a game-day active yet in 2012. For the moment though, he'll be viewed as the heir apparent to Bigby until he proved otherwise. Here's where OL will probably be seen to come off the board. Wagner might be the best fit given that he's a Big 10 prospect (one of those three conferences AJ drafts his OL from), he could be a RT (and God-willing replace Jeromey Clary) or an OG (where both our starters are FA's); I could see Illinois' Graham Pocic and LSU's Alex Hurst (though I think a smart coach moves him inside to guard at the next level and just sits back and watches the beauty ensue) as options as well.

Well, the way this broke down, I planned, much like the PM you sent for me, in the future. Banks will give you the sure starter this year with Blidi being a shutdown (one of the few this draft) to have to give limited snaps to. With both your corners now being free agents, I felt the secondary needed to be addressed as your Offensive Line will be addressed later on in the draft. I didn't go Receiver in the third, as the way my board broke down with team needs, they fell further then they would in a live draft setting. Duke I felt is a player that can sit for part of his rookie year then come in to make an impact. The opposite was true for the Offensive Line, as they went more frequently, didn't leave the quality of player for you to take in the third. When I was finishing the 5th round earlier, I believe Tavon actually did fall to your pick in the 4th, and you taking a swing tackle in the 5th.

'It may be cold autumn outside, but on stage it's a rural Italian summer,' promised ROH director of opera Kasper Holten after announcing the latest casualty of this season's coughs and colds (Jette Parker soprano Susana Gaspar). And, as he foretold, curtain-up revealed a huge haystack and azure skies as director Laurent Pelly's fun production of Donizetti's 'The Elixir of Love' began its second revival.
In the role of love interest Adina, the Polish soprano Aleksandra Kurzak flashed her legs as she impishly clambered around the towering set, her laser-beam voice equally ravishing, showing off immaculate intonation in her coloratura arias even while on the move. Meanwhile, tenor Roberto Alagna is also in good physical shape (if vocally hesitant) and gives a convincing turn as the lovelorn Nemorino – from moping around pathetically to playing a bravado drunk and engaging in some physical slapstick with the game ladies of the Chorus.
The sets, by Chantal Thomas, and the haystack in particular, enable some glorious choreography as Kurzak's flirtatious Adina flits around, unobtainable to Alagna's hapless suitor. Fabio Capitanucci makes a hefty-voiced brute as Nemorino's soldier rival, Belcore. Accompanied by two unlikely-looking 'warriors', the baritone sings well but is curiously reserved in his pomposity. Similarly, bass Ambrogio Maestri, as burly mountebank Dulcamara, is fresh from singing the role at the Metropolitan Opera in New York. He has the voice and looks the part, but, like Capitanucci, he never fully engages with the audience in a comic role surely built for scene stealing.
The production has many pleasing touches, though. Even the scene change was accompanied by a safety curtain covered in small ads for Dulcamara's dubious remedies, while the sound of chirping crickets filled the auditorium. Various vehicles – Vespas, a tractor and even a flatbed lorry – are used to great effect – not forgetting Sammy, the fleet dog who sprints across the stage much to the amusement of the audience.
Conductor Bruno Campanella keeps the orchestra honest throughout, although Nemorino's star aria 'Una furtiva lagrima' is a tad slow. The production, however, has all the ingredients for a great show, and while on this occasion it was a little reserved, such first night reticence should disappear and it may well catch fire – especially with all that straw.

Pitching leads Tusculum past Brevard in doubleheader sweepMarch 24, 2012
Stuart and Funkhouser lead Tornados bats in losses to Pioneers
Brevard, N.C. - Champ Stuart had four hits and Chad Funkhouser drove in a pair of runs as the Tornados took on Tusculum on Saturday afternoon at Gil Coan Field. However, backed by a pair of home runs by Cade Stallings and strong pitching performances by Craig Goodman and Taylor Rakes, the Pioneers swept Brevard, 8-4 and 10-1.
Zach Joyce (1-4) and Casey Smith (1-3) took the losses for Brevard (15-18, 7-10 SAC) on the afternoon, while Goodman (7-0) and Rakes (5-1) picked up the victories for Tusculum (26-5, 15-2 SAC) on the road.
Game One: Tusculum 8, Brevard 4
Box Score
Stallings snapped a 3-all tie in the top of the fifth with an RBI single and Tripper Crisson added a two RBI base hit in the sixth as Tusculum pulled away from Brevard to record the 8-4 victory in game one.
Tusculum opened the scoring in the top of the third as Crisson crossed the plate on a BC throwing error on Lukas Graves' sacrifice bunt attempt, giving the Pioneers the 1-0 lead. After a groundout gave the Tornados two outs in the frame, Stallings brought in Graves with a two-run home run over the left centerfield fence off Joyce to triple the Pioneers' lead.
Brevard answered in the bottom half of the inning as Champ Stuart led off with an infield single and Christian Christopoulos followed with a walk. Kramer Clark advanced both runners into scoring position with a sacrifice bunt before Funkhouser dropped a single down the right field line, bringing in both Stuart and Christopoulos to put Brevard back within one. Eric Renegar followed with a base hit, moving Funkhouser to third, where he came around to score on Zach Merriken's fielder's choice, evening the game at 3 apiece.
Tusculum went back up by three as the Pioneers plated a run in the fifth as Stallings singled in Crisson, while Crisson drove in Carlos Santana and Matt Henriksen in the sixth as Tusculum took control of the game in the middle innings.
Henriksen and Cody Coffman also added RBIs for the Pioneers in the seventh and eighth, with Henriksen driving in a run with a sacrifice fly, while Aaron Guinn scored in the eighth off Coffman's single to straightaway centerfield.
The Tornados attempted to rally back in the bottom of the ninth against Tusculum reliever Scott Simmons. Merriken led off the frame reaching on a walk, but remained on first base until Randy O'Dell's two-out single to left centerfield. Stuart followed with a single up the middle underneath the pitcher's glove, scoring Merriken, but Simmons retired the final BC batter on strikes to close out the contest.
Game Two: Tusculum 10, Brevard 1
Box Score
Tusculum plated six runs in the top of the third to take control of the game as Coffman and Santana drove in two runs apiece in the inning as the Pioneers coasted to the 10-1 victory over Brevard behind Rakes' complete game.
Santana opened the scoring for the Pioneers in the second inning, singling home Henriksen off BC starter Smith to plate the first run in the game.
Tusculum went up 7-0 after the third as the Pioneers sent 10 batters to the plate in the frame. Stallings plated the first run, scoring Crisson with an RBI single. Coffman added two with a bases-loaded double to right field and Santana cleared the bases with a two RBI double down the right field line, chasing Smith from the contest. Crisson drove in the final run of the inning with a single through the left side of the infield before Zach Huneycutt retired the side with a strikeout to end the frame.
Stallings went deep for the second time on the day in the top of the sixth, driving a 1-0 pitch into the BC bullpen beyond the left field fence, scoring Aaron Guinn to push the lead to 9-0, before Santana drove in the final BC run with a groundout, scoring Joe Polichetti.
Down to their final at-bat, the Tornados began to battle back, snapping the shutout attempt in the bottom of the seventh. Stuart reached on a one-out single and raced around the bases on Bennett Hixson's double to the left centerfield wall, ending Rakes' shutout attempt, but the Pioneers' junior right-hander ended the game with a strikeout to give Tusculum the win.
Brevard and Tusculum finish up the three-game weekend series tomorrow afternoon at Gil Coan Field as the Tornados and the Pioneers faceoff in a nine-inning contest. First pitch between the SAC opponents is set for 1 p.m.

Publishers and marketers send me a lot of books to review. I don't get around to most of them because I'm busy (indifferent, lazy and not very bright). But occasionally one just grabs me.
Recently it was a book on what hunting can teach us about Jesus Christ. On its face, Treestand Devotionals by John Van suggests that a deeper understanding of God can be achieved by tracking down and blowing the brains out of his creations.
Note: I am not anti-hunting, anti-animal, or even anti-religion. I am hugely pro-irony. It's a cross I bear.
Another note: I'm not a biblical scholar, either, but I'm fairly certain there's no proof that the Lord ever shot an animal. There was some purported deliberate mistreatment of swine (Matthew 8:32), but that's about it.
Based on the promoter, Van's book is actually more about spirituality he found in those quiet times (of which there are a lot in a tree) when there was nothing to shoot.
It's probably an excellent read if you're Christian and a hunter. Since I haven't read it, I can't really comment on what's inside.
Finding God up a tree wasn't all. The subtitle of Van's book is "Nothing Happens with a Dull Sword … Nothing."
Although hunting animals from a tree stand with a sword seems rather impossible, I suspect "sword" refers to being an instrument in the hand of God. You have to keep yourself sharp if you want to be that. I guess.
But it occurs to me (as it so often does) that lot of things can happen with a dull sword. For starters, you stand less of a chance of cutting yourself with it. A dull sword also makes an excellent plowshare (Isaiah 2: 3-4).
A really dull sword can even be a hammer. Maybe use it to build a house instead of hacking people to death. Like I said, it's just the way I think when people attempt to define absolutes with analogies.
Virtually anything can be parlayed into an analogous explanation of spirituality or life for the purposes of marketing. I haven't seen this book yet, but it's only a matter of time before the title On Fire With the Lord: Understanding Christ Through Arson crosses my desk.
At least part of the problem here is being human. The most effective way to relate an experience you've had is to put it in terms others can understand.
Unfortunately, these terrible parables are often limited to one particular group. It's doubtful Christian vegans are going to get much out of a title like Moose Hunting With Jesus.
If you were to write a book about your thoughts on a particular dogma, what would you title it? Neapolitan Ice Cream and the Trinity has a nice ring. So does I'm Going and You're Not: Anticipating the Rapture.
It doesn't have to be a religious book. It could just be what you've learned about the nature of your life through long pointless experience. Shouting Down Wells: A Search for Deeper Meaning.
My own life has been a journey of crime and punishment. Someday maybe I'll pen a book titled Post Operative Ponderings: Repentance through Surgery or Overcome by the Spirit: Sermons Partially Understood by a Narcoleptic.

Eltrombopag (Promacta®)
Pronounced: el-TROM-boe-pag
Classification: Antithrombin Agent
About Eltrombopag (Promacta®)
Eltrombopag is a man-made protein used to treat a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) in adults that is caused by idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (also called ITP). Eltrombopag is a thrombopoietin receptor agonist that stimulates bone marrow cells to produce platelets.
How to Take Eltrombopag
Eltrombopag is given in a pill or liquid form, taken once a day. The medication should be taken on an empty stomach (1 hour before or 2 hours after eating). Take the tablets whole, do not crush, chew or break. If you are using the liquid form, you will receive instructions on how to prepare the dose.
The following compounds significantly reduce the absorption of Eltrombopag and should not be consumed for at least 4 hours before or 2 hours after taking the medication:
- Dairy products or calcium fortified juices
- Antacids (used for heartburn or as calcium supplements)
- Multivitamins or supplements that contain iron, calcium, aluminum, magnesium, selenium or zinc.
The recommended starting dose is 50mg a day. Patients of East Asian ancestry or those with liver problems will be started at a lower dose due to the risk of liver toxicity. Your platelet count will be monitored and the dose of medication changed as needed. If you miss a dose, wait and take the next scheduled dose. Do not take two doses to make up for a missed dose.
Storage and Handling
Store this medication (both pill and liquid formulations) at room temperature in the original container. If you prefer to use a pillbox, discuss this with your oncology pharmacist. Ask your oncology team where to return any unused medication for disposal. Do not flush down the toilet or throw in the trash.
Where do I get this medication?
Eltrombopag is available through select specialty pharmacies. Your oncology team will work with your prescription drug plan to identify an in-network specialty pharmacy for distribution of this medication and shipment directly to your home.
Insurance Information
This medication may be covered under your prescription drug plan. Patient assistance may be available to qualifying individuals without prescription drug coverage. Co-pay cards, which reduce the patient co-pay responsibility for eligible commercially (non-government sponsored) insured patients, may also be available. Your care team can help you find these resources, if they are available.
Possible Side Effects of Eltrombopag
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of eltrombopag. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
Nausea and/or Vomiting
Talk to your doctor or nurse so they can prescribe medications to help you manage nausea and vomiting. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms.
Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.
Your oncology team can recommend medications to relieve diarrhea. Also, try eating low-fiber, bland foods, such as white rice and boiled or baked chicken. Avoid raw fruits, vegetables, whole grain breads, cereals and seeds. Soluble fiber is found in some foods and absorbs fluid, which can help relieve diarrhea. Foods high in soluble fiber include: applesauce, bananas (ripe), canned fruit, orange sections, boiled potatoes, white rice, products made with white flour, oatmeal, cream of rice, cream of wheat, and farina. Drink 8-10 glasses on non-alcoholic, un-caffeinated fluid a day to prevent dehydration.
Fatigue is very common during cancer treatment and is an overwhelming feeling of exhaustion that is not usually relieved by rest. While on cancer treatment, and for a period after, you may need to adjust your schedule to manage fatigue. Plan times to rest during the day and conserve energy for more important activities. Exercise can help combat fatigue; a simple daily walk with a friend can help. Talk to your healthcare team for helpful tips on dealing with this side effect.
Blood Clots
Your risk of developing a blood clot (DVT or PE) is higher while taking this medication, particularly when your platelet count is high. Your healthcare provider will monitor your platelet count to attempt to prevent it from getting too high. Blood clots can occur anywhere in the body. They occur most frequently in the calves (leg) or the lungs. Signs of a blood clot in the leg may include any of the following: leg pain, warmth, swelling of one leg more than the other. Signs of a blood clot in the lung could include: fever, shortness of breath that comes on you very quickly, racing heart and chest pain (that tends to be worse when you take a deep breath). If you have any of these signs or symptoms of blood clots, you will need to be seen immediately so that you can be treated with blood thinners.
Liver Toxicity
This medication can cause liver toxicity, which your doctor may monitor for using blood tests called liver function tests. Notify your healthcare provider if you notice yellowing of the skin or eyes, your urine appears dark or brown, you develop swelling or pain in your abdomen, as these can be signs of liver toxicity.
Worsening of the Platelet Count After Stopping the Medication
In clinical trials, some patients experienced lower platelet counts when the medication was stopped than they had before taking the medication. This side effect is most likely to occur shortly after stopping eltrombopag and may last about 1 month. This lower platelet count increases the risk of bleeding, so precautions should be taken and any bruising or bleeding should be reported to your healthcare provider.
Vision Changes
Eltrombopag can cause new or worsened cataracts. Your healthcare provided may check your eyes before and during treatment. Symptoms of cataracts include: cloudy, blurry or dim vision, difficulty with night vision, sensitivity to light or seeing halos around lights. Report any vision changes to your healthcare team.
Reproductive Concerns
Exposure of an unborn child to this medication could cause birth defects, so you should not become pregnant or father a child while on this medication. Effective birth control is necessary during treatment. Even if your menstrual cycle stops or you believe you are not producing sperm, you could still be fertile and conceive. You should consult with your healthcare team before breastfeeding while receiving this medication.

SC Department of Revenue warns to wait before renewing credit monitoring service
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
Taxpayers are getting emails from Experian, advising them that their "Protect My ID" credit monitoring is going to expire next month and offering them a chance to renew for less than $12 a year. But the South Carolina Department of Revenue is advising you to wait before renewing.
That's because the state is the process of awarding a new contract for credit monitoring and ID theft protection that won't cost you any money.
"I encourage people to wait," says Bill Blume, director of the South Carolina Department of Revenue. "I think they're going to find out that there is a more robust credit and identity theft contract entered into."
Renewing with Experian will cost you 99 cents a month, or $11.88 for the year, for individual coverage. But signing up your entire family would cost $240.
Details of the new contract should be known by the middle of next week, Blume says. The new coverage will be in place before current coverage expires, the earliest of which will be October 24th. The state paid Experian $10 million to provide one year of credit monitoring, at no direct cost to taxpayers, and that one year extends from the time taxpayers signed up.
The credit monitoring was in response to an international hacker who got into the computer system at the state Department of Revenue and stole the personal information of 6.4 million individuals and businesses. The DOR says there have been no confirmed cases of identity theft or credit theft as a result of the breach, but experts have warned that hackers can hold onto stolen personal information for years before using it.

Health Insurance & Fees
Health Insurance & Fees
- There is no charge to registered MU students to be evaluated by health care providers at Health Services for an illness.
- There is a minimal charge for some medication, procedures, routine services such as Driver Permit or job physicals, and in-house lab tests. These charges can be paid directly (cash, check, Marauder Gold) or they can be billed to home. Health Services and the Bursars Office is unable to accept any medical insurance for these charges but a coded superbill receipt will be provided that can be submitted for possible reimbursement.
- If additional labwork is needed most tests are performed by Quest Laboratory or ACM Laboratory. These labs will bill you or your health insurance company directly for the tests and they accept many types of insurance. Payment by private insurance is not guaranteed. Remember that some health insurance plans require a referral from your primary physician to have diagnostic tests covered by insurance. It is the student's responsibility to investigate insurance coverage. The Health Service staff can guide the student but it is important for everyone to be savvy healthcare consumers.
- It is suggested that the student carry the most current insurance card (or a copy of the front and back of the current insurance card) in their wallet. Many times students are in Health Services and do not have their insurance information with them. Please remember to update the insurance card information every year if the insurance changes. ***Any testing or service (lab testing, x-ray, etc) that is being referred outside of Health Services will require a current insurance card to be presented. This will ensure the proper insurance billing occurs.
- If you have insurance coverage for prescriptions, written prescriptions can be provided. You may wish to take the time to go to one of our local pharmacies to register your insurance. A list of local pharmacies is available in Health Services. Because some insurance policies have preferred providers for prescriptions, please familiarize yourself with your insurance coverage. Students are given prescriptions for medications not available in Health Services.
- Brochures from private insurance plans/carriers are available in Health Services. Questions regarding these plans should be directed to the individual insurance carrier.
School Health Insurance
An accident and sickness insurance plan is offered to Millersville University students. Whether one participates or not, does not affect eligibility to use the Health Services.
For specific University sponsored Health Insurance benefits, students may obtain a current brochure and enrollment form that provides information on costs and benefits online at Consolidated Health Plans (https://consolidatedhealthplan.com/group/102/home).
If there are additional questions, please contact:
Consolidated Health Plans
2077 Roosevelt Avenue
Springfield, MA 01104
Health Insurance - HMO/PPO
Plan for the best. Anticipate that you may need to seek medical care beyond what Health Services can provide and investigate where you could have an x-ray or send labwork in the event of illness or injury. Being prepared can help when an emergency or urgent need arises.
A student needs to have an understanding of how his/her health insurance works. Call your health insurance company. Inquire what process needs to be followed for procedures such as lab work, x-ray, or referral to a specialist. The Health Service staff will offer support and assistance, but ultimately the responsibility falls to the individual student to obtain the necessary referrals directly from their primary care physician or insurance company. Every insurance plan is different and it is impossible to keep up with all the changes in the medical insurance field when many companies change their procedures every year.
Many times, health insurance plans or Primary Care Physicians will request that a student be sent home for care. If they are referred, every effort is made to find a physician/facility that participates with the insurance. There have been occasions where local physicians/facilities are non-participating. Find out what doctors in this area participate with your insurance. Students are referred home when local doctors are non-participating. Insurance plans may do "non par" referrals (non-participating referrals are those to providers outside of the system and the insurance provider will determine level of coverage).
University Intercollegiate Sports Insurance
Millersville University maintains a separate policy covering athletes participating in University Intercollegiate Athletic Programs. This policy has a $1,000 deductible and is SECONDARY to private insurance carrier. Claim must be filed with private carrier first. If there are outstanding bills, copies of statements, explanation of benefits from primary carrier and other information need to be copied and sent with a claim form to the insurance. The Athletic Trainer will assist student with claim form.
