Edited by Mary Gnaedinger, the eighty-one issues of Famous Fantastic Mysteries offered reprints of science-fiction, fantasy, and scientific romances from earlier decades. So extensive were reader requests for specific reprints, Gnaedinger launched a companion magazine, Fantastic Novels, in June 1940.
According to Mike Ashley:
'The first issue was an immediate success and the magazine was placed on a monthly schedule. At the urging of Merritt himself, Mary Gnaedinger commissioned Virgil Finlay to illustrate 'The Conquest of the Moon Pool', which started in the second issue, and thus began the long partnership of Finlay and FFM (as it is often known). Finlay was able to bring just the right feeling of otherworldliness to Merritt's work, combining the exotic and the erotic. It was a combination that has made FFM one of the most attractive of all pulp magazines'. (The Time Machines: The Story of the Science-Fiction Pulp Magazines from the Beginning to 1950, Liverpool University Press, 2000, p.150).

Renting Investment Property
When you invest in real estate, there are numerous factors that might affect your decisions. There are numerous aspects to consider in time such as deciding whether it might be better to sell new properties or rent them.
As a property investor, it is all about being well-informed and taking informed decisions that will gain you better results on the long run. When it comes to renting, there are again numerous factors to keep in mind when you want to ensure a fast process with good financial revenues. Let's see some of the foolproof ways in which you can manage to rent your properties quicker.
Make Sure the Property Looks Good
Whenever possible customers search for good properties to rent, the way in which these look is what they will notice first. You cannot advertise your property unless you have already made sure that no details will keep your potential renting customers away or spreading negative rumors about you.
Leave no gutters around, repaint the interior and exterior of the property if necessary and mow the lawns for a good first impression. Even the smallest details count for those in search of new homes. In the end, it may also not be a bad idea to prune trees or interesting shrubs and re-mulch the garden beds for a more attractive overall look of the property.
Perfect Living Conditions for Your Renters
When you want to ensure a good long-term relationship with renters, it is always good to ensure perfect living conditions for them. Repair responsiveness is a top factor that influences how quickly you can manage to rent your property. When everything looks great, functions perfectly and reaches the market featuring a decent price that balances the offered features, renting will never be an issue for you as the property investor.
The houses you have for rent are worth a lot of money for you so you need to keep your investments in perfect conditions. New tenants will definitely want to know that you will attend to any type of genuine repairs that might be necessary in the future as soon as possible. This will give you more credibility and make you one of the favorite property investors among potential customers.
Build Yourself a Positive Image
There is nothing worse than a property investor with a bad image. Rumors circulate fast especially when negative feedback comes along. People never keep their thoughts to themselves when someone might have made them go through a challenging situation.
As a result, if you want to make sure that you will find renting customers for your properties fast, make sure all your clients have good things to say about your renting offers. When those who have lived there previously leave good reviews for you on your website, future clients will come your way faster than you think.
On the other hand, even a single bad review can make future customers want to stay clear from you and your offers. Proper maintenance of your property does not only make it more attractive to current and prospective renting clients but it will also ensure you a long-term capital value. Properties that are not well taken care of value a lot less thus will make your investment worth less than it should on the long-run.
Proper Appliance Appeal
Nowadays, all potential renting customers are searching for modern living conditions no matter what their budget for renting might be. There are numerous offers available for them to choose from so the competition is pretty high in this field of activity. If you want to ensure that your property will find new residents faster than you might have expected, make sure it includes proper appliances. There is nothing that will help future residents for holiday lettings kalkan decide faster than the idea of perfect comfort ensured for them.
Consider both basic items and luxurious ones to include as your price goes higher. You need to make sure your offer seems more than tempting to become the main focus on the market. Potential customers will always want to see more offers and compare them. All in all, the only way in which you will rent first is if your offer is the best among others.

Also brainstorming some marketing and property improvement ideas wouldn't hurt. The thing is, you have to invest something, not necessarily money to get some profit; that's the best "foolproof" tip I know!

Congratulations to Mt. Vernon of Elizabeth for being acknowledged as a National Quality Award recipient by the American Health Care Association.
6 months ago
My mother was a resident of Mt. Vernon for six years. I was very pleased with the care she received from the entire staff. The aides and nurses are compassionate and caring people who take the time to interact with the patients on an individual basis. The facility is kept extremely clean and there is a homey feeling when you walk through the door. You are always greeted with a pleasant hello and coffee and cookies are awaiting you. There are activities on a daily basis and frequently outside entertainment, as well as lunch outings. Throughout the year there are various socials that include the residents, family members and friends. These events are always well received with wonderful food and great entertainment provided. The residents are happy and well cared for and many develop deep bonds with the staff members. I would highly recommend Mt. Vernon for your loved ones.
It was not easy when we realized my grandmother couldn't live at home alone anymore. But let me tell you...there is no place I would rather her be than MT Vernon of Elizabeth! My grandmother (along with the other residents) are treated like family. The management and staff are amazing to her, and to my entire family! They make it easy for us to be ok with her being in "a home" because she is so well cared for. There is always something fun for gram to do, always someone there to assist her every need. I really could write a book about how wonderful this place is. They even have events in the summer and fall that bring the whole family together. I just love the people here and they love my gram, it means so much!!
Are you a resident of Mount Vernon of Elizabeth or a family member of one? We'd love to hear your thoughts about the community!

Ice does not always melt in water. Liquid water is not necessarily warmer than ice, particularly if you're talking about highly saline water. When salt water freezes, it does so below 0 °C, and the process of freezing mostly desalinates the ice (it's called "brine rejection"). So the mostly freshwater ice sits atop the salt water, and they are both in thermal equilibrium, somewhere between 0 °C and -1.8 °C.
The solid-liquid distinction is completely irrelevant to why ice melts. All that matters is the temperature gradient. For ice to melt it must be in thermal contact with something that is above the melting point of the ice. Fresh liquid water is almost always above this temperature.

Occidental Mindoro is the second province in Mindoro Island blessed with dozens of fascinating tourist spots. These tourist spots includes dive sites, coves and white sand beaches. It is also the home of the second-largest contiguous coral system in the world and it has even gained the reputation of being called as the Marine Wonderland of the Philippines.
Most of the tourist spots in Occidental Mindoro can be found on the municipalities of Sablayan, San Jose and Mamburao which one can also find good accommodations in the province. There are around 400,000 people living in the province and they speak of Tagalog and Mangyan Languages.
If you are planning to visit all of the beautiful tourist spots in Mindoro Island, consider these best tourist spots in Occidental Mindoro.
Top 10 Tourist Spots in Occidental Mindoro
1. Apo Reef
Apo Reef is one of the best tourist spots in Occidental Mindoro. Recognized as the second-largest contiguous reef system in the world next to Great Barrier Reef in Australia, it is being considered as the number one dive site in the Philippines. It is a 34-kilometer reef system divided into north and south lagoon systems by a narrow channel. Jellyfish, turtles, white-tip and black-tip reef sharks, manta rays and vast variety of corals and marine lifeforms one can witness when diving in Apo Reef.
2. Inasakan Beach
Inasakan Beach is a hidden paradise in Occidental Mindoro. It is an unspoiled powdery pure white sand beach and crystal clear waters that one could even see through the orange and blue starfishes in the waters. Visitors even compared Inasakan Beach very similar to Boracay but this beach is not yet developed. There are no vendors and establishments near the beach other than very few cottages. Which means you have to bring your own food and swimming gears.

Orange walks are a series of parades held annually by members of the Orange Order during the summer in Northern Ireland, to a lesser extent in Scotland, and occasionally in England, the Republic of Ireland, and throughout the Commonwealth. These typically build up to the 12 July celebrations which mark Prince William of Orange's victory over King James II at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. Although the term 'march' or 'parade' is widely used in the media, the Order prefers terms such as 'walk' or 'demonstration'.
The 'marching season'
The term 'the marching season' generally refers to the months April to August in Northern Ireland and includes marches by groups such as the Ancient Order of Hibernians, the Apprentice Boys of Derry, and the Royal Black Institution as well as the Orange Order. However the Orange Order is by far the most prolific marching group. Typically each Orange Lodge will hold its own march at some point before the 12th of July, accompanied by at least one marching band. On the 12th of July each district will hold a larger parade consisting of all the lodges in that district, sometimes with the addition of lodges from outside Northern Ireland. This is particularly the case with the Belfast district, whose parade commonly features several Scottish lodges and often some from other countries. In most districts the location of the parade will vary from year to year, rotating around suitable towns. Belfast is an exception, keeping more or less the same route for many decades. The only major parade after the Twelfth is on the last Sunday in October, when lodges celebrate Reformation Day by parading to church.
Some walks commemorate historic events; most notably, the 12th of July marches remember the Battle of the Boyne. A number of marches all over Northern Ireland on and around the 1st of July commemorate the participation of the 36th (Ulster) Division in the Battle of the Somme. The Reformation Day parades are held in honour of Martin Luther nailing his 95 theses to the church door in Wittenberg, thus starting the Reformation which brought about the Protestant churches.
Form of parades
All Orange walks include at least one lodge, with officers. The lodge will almost always be accompanied by a marching band, often a flute band but other parading band types include fife and drum, silver, and accordion. Walks may include dozens of lodges for major events such as the Twelfth, down to one lodge only. Elderly or infirm lodge members often travel the parade route in a vehicle such as a black taxi. It has become much more common in recent decades for members of Ladies' lodges to walk, although women are still massively outnumbered by men in most parades. Larger walks, especially on the Twelfth, may be headed by a figure on a white horse dressed as Boyne victor William of Orange. A few parades also include others in historical fancy dress or, more rarely, a float such as that constructed for the 1990 Twelfth celebrations. This represented the Mountjoy, the ship which lifted the Siege of Derry.
Regalia and accessories
Parading Orangemen usually wear dark suits, although in particularly warm weather they may dispense with the jacket. Until recently bowler hats were commonly worn but this is more unusual now. Walkers will wear V-shaped orange collarettes (often inaccurately known as sashes) bearing the number of their lodge and often badges showing degrees awarded within the institution, and positions held in the lodge. Some lodge officers also wear elaborate cuffs, and many walkers wear white gloves, although this is less common than it used to be. Most lodges carry at least one flag, of which the most common is the Union Flag. Other commonly carried flags include the Flag of Ulster, the Flag of Scotland and the Orange Order flag. Lodges will generally also carry a banner, which will include the name and number of the lodge, and usually depicts William of Orange on at least one side. Other popular banner subjects include deceased lodge members, local landmarks, and the Bible with a Crown.
Typically there will be one band per lodge. In some cases the band will have a formal connection with the lodge but in most cases it will simply be hired for the day. Bands and lodges pair up by word of mouth, through the band or lodge advertising in a Protestant publication such as the Orange Standard, or as a result of a lodge member hearing the CDs and tapes which many bands produce. Most bands have a strongly Protestant ethos and display bannerettes and flags associated with loyalism and in some cases paramilitary groups. Many are associated with or named after particular Protestant areas such as the Shankill Road in Belfast, although the number of 'Shankill Road' bands suggest that many of their members are from elsewhere. In 1985, concerned that the behaviour of some bands was bringing the Order into disrepute, the Grand Orange Lodge instituted a system of band contracts, in which bands make a commitment that they will not misbehave. According to writer and former Orangeman Brian Kennaway, the contracts have been largely ineffective, mostly because of the Order's reluctance to adequately enforce them.[1]
Throughout the history of the Orange Order, Orange walks have faced opposition, generally from Catholics and nationalists, who feel that the parades are sectarian and triumphalist. Although many nationalists find the parades offensive wherever they take place, conflict usually only arises when a walk passes through or near a Catholic-dominated area. During The Troubles many marchers were verbally abused, had things thrown at them or, less commonly, were shot at.However, it appears that, more often than not, the Orangmen were the aggressors (see http://orangecitadel.blogspot.com/) The marching season required high levels of police involvement to prevent major outbreaks of violence, and as a result parading was banned in the region on several occasions in the early 1970s, although the ban was never in place on the 12th of July.[2]
Currently, of the more than 2000 annual parades in Northern Ireland, only a handful are considered contentious. The best known of these is the Drumcree conflict. The Drumcree area, near Portadown has a history of parading disputes going back to the nineteenth century, and the current dispute centres on the refusal of the Parades Commission to allow the Portadown lodge down the Catholic Garvaghy Road during their annual celebrations in early July.[1] The conflict led to severe rioting in the late 1990s, but the area has been relatively calm in recent years.
Parade opponents in Drumcree and elsewhere put forward several arguments against the parades: that they are sectarian regardless of their route, as they celebrate the defeat of Irish Catholicism; that when they go through Catholic areas this is particularly insulting and triumphalist; and that regardless of their content they cause serious inconvenience to residents as roads must be closed and, in particularly contentious areas, access to the roads denied. One observer has argued that the Orange Institution and its numerous demonstrations of strength effectively deny Nationalists and Catholics their basic human rights [3] The Orange Order and its supporters counter that the parades are not sectarian and that any sectarian activity and violence is perpetuated by outsiders and 'hangers-on' who the Order has no control over; that inconvenience is mostly caused by the need for police to protect marchers from the violence of their opponents; and that the disputes are not actually about parading at all but are a way for republicans to attack Protestantism. They also argue that there is a fundamental 'right to march' and that any group should be able to walk down 'the Queen's highway' without interference. In practice, however, the Order has tended to oppose marches by republicans and other 'disloyal' groups on the grounds that there is no right to parade sedition. The Order has a policy of non-negotiation with residents' groups as it believes that these are dominated by Sinn Féin and do not represent the actual opinions of residents.[4]
Accusations of sectarianism have also been levelled against Orange walks, and the Order in general, in Scotland.

Orange walks were once common throughout the island of Ireland, especially on the 12th of July. However, since partition those in the Republic of Ireland have dwindled in number, partly because of local antagonism and partly because of the decline in the Protestant population of the Republic. The last walk in Dublin was in 1937 and the only remaining walk in the Republic takes place at Rossnowlagh, County Donegal, near the border with Northern Ireland.
Orange walks continue in Glasgow, Edinburgh and other parts of Scotland. The walks have been associated with sectarian behaviour on the part of onlookers, with three arrests for sectarian breach of the peace made in connection with a 2009 Glasgow parade.[2] The parades have been more broadly criticised as an incitement to violence and hatred.[3] However the Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland has supported police moves to fine spectators for sectarian activity,[4] with Grand Master Ian Wilson saying that 'all the effort that has gone into defending our interests can be destroyed by the stupidity of the few'.[5]
Marches were common in Australia at the turn of the 20th century, the Kalgoorlie and Boulder marches in 1890s and 1900s attracting conflict between Catholics and Protestant marchers. In New Zealand they continued until at least the 1920s, but no longer take place.[5]
Orange Walks on the 12th of July were once large public occasions in Canada, particularly in the provinces of Ontario and Newfoundland that have a strong Loyalist heritage. In recent decades turnout has dwindled, although some parades in Canada do continue.
Orange Walks have also declined in England, but there is still a notable one in Liverpool.

Heidi Klum Has a Blast with Brad Paisley at the 2014 People's Choice Awards
It's one of the kick-off events for award season, and Heidi Klum made Wednesday night (January 9) memorable at the 2014 People's Choice Awards in Los Angeles.
The "Project Runway" babe showed off her amazing bod in a beaded, black Armani gown as she danced the night away and even stole Brad Paisley's hat during his up-beat performance.
In regards to the night's ceremony, Britney Spears took home her first PCA for Favorite Pop Artist.
During her speech, the Vegas performer told the crowd, "Thank you! Wow. This is so cool! This is awesome. I was not expecting this. And it's because of all of you that I am able to do what I love to do, and I just want to thank my family, my beautiful family. My boys at home. My management team and all of my friends, I love you dearly. Thank you."

Unified Perspective
Showcasing the finest range of natural stone in a series of integrated outdoor spaces, the landscape design for the renovation of this North Adelaide residence achieves a natural aesthetic. Thomas Tran writes.
The clients envisioned each garden zone to vary in function and context whilst still complementing the distinct architectural structure of their home.
The front existing pool was to be relocated to the rear, with new entrances to the building from ground level and easier access around site.
Through a collaborative approach led by Wax Design landscape architects, the internal and external spaces were integrated into one cohesive, award-winning* design.
Privacy from the street was achieved with a screen alcove and a semi permeable front fence and driveway gates.
Strong minimalist lines of the building were transitioned into the outdoor landscape with a series of off-form concrete walls. These walls contrast with the feature sawn-cut granite, providing a backdrop to the pool and a concealed pump house.
The elevated pool adds an element of intrigue, with a blade wall negating the need for a pool fence. This creates a greater sense of connection to the central lawn area below.
The existing ivy along the red brick façade was retained with a new granite-raised garden bed beneath.
Where finally, a concrete wrap to the granite edge creates a line of seating walls along the length of the lawn and connects the lower garden with the design intent of the pool.

Evan Chandler, 65, the father of a young boy who alleged that he was molested by Michael Jackson in 1994, was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in his luxury apartment in New Jersey earlier this month.
RadarOnline.com reported that Chandler's body was found on November 5 by the concierge at his apartment building.
"There was no note found in the apartment, but officers did find medication in keeping with a serious medical condition," a Jersey City police spokesperson told the site. Police said Chandler was found dead on his bed with a single gunshot wound to his head and a gun in his hand in what they believe was suicide. Police were sent to check on the gravely ill Chandler after he'd missed a doctor's appointment.
In the early 1990's, Chandler alleged to the Los Angeles and Santa Barbara police that Jackson had molested his 13-year-old son, Jordan, who was a frequent companion to the pop star and often spent the night at the singer's Neverland Ranch. The boy gave a taped account of the alleged abuse to police in 1994 in which he described Jackson's private area, prompting officials to request that Jackson submit to having his genitalia photographed as evidence, a process the singer said in a taped address to fans was one of the most humiliating of his life. Though officials launched an investigation, the case never went to court because the family settled with Jackson for an undisclosed amount that was rumored to be $20 million.
In the recent book "Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson," celebrity journalist Ian Halperin wrote about an alleged conversation between Evan Chandler and his ex-wife's second husband, in which Chandler, upset that Jackson had cut ties to the Chandlers, threatened that he was going to go after the singer for money. "And if I go through with this, I win big time," Chandler allegedly said. "There's no way I lose. ... I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever. June will lose [custody] and Michael's career will be over."
Halperin also claims in the book that Chandler, who was attempting a career as a screenwriter, went to police with the allegations after extracting a tooth from Jordan, whom he'd put under with the controversial sedative sodium amytal, a drug that experts have claimed makes patients very susceptible to suggestions. Evan Chandler reportedly underwent numerous plastic surgeries to alter his appearance to disguise himself from fervent Jackson fans that would shout abuse at him in public.
The father and son made news again in 2005 when Jordan, 26 at the time, accused his father of hitting him in the head with a 12 pound weight and spraying him in the face with pepper spray. Evan Chandler was charged with assault and weapons charges in the incident, but the charges were later dropped.

London: Andrew Parker, the director-general of Britain's Security Service, MI5, warned that the threat of a "mass casualty attack" was growing and that intelligence pointed to the existence of specific plots.
Security was stepped up on Thursday at British ports, and armed police were put on patrol at the Eurostar terminal at London's St Pancras station.
Mr Parker warned that although three terrorist plots had been foiled in recent months, it was almost inevitable that one would eventually succeed.
MI5 officers have increased surveillance of British fanatics who they fear may launch copycat attacks, after 12 people were slaughtered by al-Qaeda gunmen at Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris.
Intelligence has shown that the Syrian arm of a resurgent al-Qaeda is planning similar outrages against the UK, possibly from British jihadists who have already returned from fighting in Syria or Iraq.
They include plans to blow up a passenger jet; Mumbai-style shootings in crowded places; or even a hit-and-run attack using vehicles.
Mr Parker said the number of random "crude and potentially deadly" plots from "lone wolf" extremists was increasing.
In a stark warning, he said: "Although we and our partners try our utmost, we know we cannot hope to stop everything."
It is feared that a lack of cooperation from internet companies means that there is a risk of terrorists slipping through the net because MI5 cannot track them.
Mr Parker warned that terrorists may soon be able "to operate beyond our reach" as he renewed calls for enhanced access to digital communications.
Mr Parker said that while Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (Isil) remained a key concern, the threat from al-Qaeda remained.
He said: "We still face more complex and ambitious plots that follow the now sadly well-established approach of al-Qaeda and its imitators: attempts to cause large scale loss of life, often by attacking transport systems or iconic targets." It is understood the threat to the UK comes from the "Khorasan" cell, an al-Qaeda offshoot made up of veteran jihadists sent to Syria by Ayman al-Zawahiri, the terrorist organisation's leader. It is likely to include British fanatics.
Speaking to members of the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) at MI5 headquarters, Thames House, Mr Parker said the terrorist threat to the UK was "complex to combat and unlikely to abate for some time". He said it is now believed that about 600 British jihadists are either in Syria or have returned, up from the previous estimate of 500. He described Isil as a "terrorist phenomenon of the modern age" and that in recent months three UK terrorist plots which would have led to deaths had been foiled.
Mr Parker also revived demands for the police and security services to have the ability to access more forms of communications when tracking suspects.
Previous attempts to introduce legislation that would force internet companies to store all users' communications, so it can be monitored if need be, were nicknamed the "snooper's charter" and failed after opposition from the Liberal Democrats. Encryption services used by internet companies is also making it easier for terrorists to hide their intentions, and there has been a lack of cooperation with the security services after the Edward Snowden revelations.
The MI5 chief said the growing gap in capability remained his "sharpest concern" and warned: "We increasingly face a world in which those who pose a serious threat may be able to operate beyond our reach". He added: "We all value our privacy and none of us want it intruded upon improperly or unnecessarily. But I don't want a situation where that privacy is so absolute and sacrosanct that terrorists and other who mean us harm can confidently operate from behind those walls without fear of detection".

The owner of this restaurant is a James Gandolfini type who screamed at us for five minutes when we pointed out that his waiter had charged us an extra $19 for our veal parmigiana. The menu listed chicken or veal parmigiana for $23 with another price scribbled out net to it. I thought they had decided to charge the same for each item, but they apparently assumed that the patron would understand that veal should cost more, so without a word they add $42 to the tab, nearly double the other items in that section. One would expect the owner to apologize for the "confusion," -- hell, I would have split the difference with him to end the matter -- but instead, Mr. Gandolfini, or whatever his name is, silenced the restaurant by repeatedly yelling, "I don't need your money!" and standing nearby breathing heavily and glaring at us menacingly. One goes to a restaurant to relax, but I wound up worrying that this guy was going to call his thugs out of the kitchen to break our kneecaps. We left more than the billed amount in cash, so he and his clever waiter could work out the tip. But I'm still a little rattled. The food was nothing to write home about, and now I have to wonder if I am safe walking around the neighborhood.
Emilio has a Deliciously designed menu. He cares about the preparation involved in making food delicious. I recommend everything on the menu. If he likes you, a special focaccia style pizza may arrive.

A Technical Report of the La Preciosa PEA, compliant with Canada National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, will be filed later this month.Donald J. Birak, Coeur's Senior Vice President of Exploration and a qualified person under Canadian National Instrument 43-101, reviewed the scientific and technical information concerning Coeur's mineral projects in this news release. A description of the key assumptions, parameters and methods used to estimate mineral reserves and resources generally, as well as data verification and quality assurance procedures and a general discussion of the extent to which the estimates may be affected by any known environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing or other relevant factors, will be included in the Technical Report for La Preciosa to be filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com later this month and is consistent with Technical Reports for each of Coeur's properties as filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors-The United States Securities and Exchange Commission permits U.S. mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce. We may use certain terms in public disclosures, such as "measured," "indicated," "inferred" and "resources," that are recognized by Canadian regulations, but that SEC guidelines generally prohibit U.S. registered companies from including in their filings with the SEC. U.S. investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in our Form 10-K which may be secured from us, or from the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov. Non-U.S. GAAP Measures We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including cash operating costs and operating cash flow. We believe that these adjusted measures provide meaningful information to assist management, investors and analysts in understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for future performance. We believe these adjusted financial measures are important indicators of our recurring operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to our core operating results, and provide a better baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses. We believe cash operating costs and operating cash flow are important measures in assessing the Company's overall financial performance.

Under the Affordable Care Act, once we decide who we have to offer coverage to, then we have to decide when they get the coverage. Generally the new rule is that a waiting period for coverage cannot exceed 90 days. More recently, the IRS has given us proposed rules on the 90 day waiting period. As with all proposed rules, they are not final until they are final, but these do give employers some additional guidance on how to maintain the correct waiting period.
The proposed regulations define a waiting period as "the period that must pass before coverage for an employee or dependent who is otherwise eligible to enroll under the terms of a group health plan can become effective." What this means is that once eligibility requirements are met (meaning that an employee is "full time"), coverage must begin 90 calendar days after eligibility is obtained. This includes weekends and holidays. If day 91 falls on a weekend or holiday, the plan sponsor may elect to have coverage be effective earlier than the 90th day, for administrative convenience, but may not delay coverage past the 91st day. So plan sponsors should eliminate any plan provisions that provide that coverage begins at some time after the 90th day (like the first day of the month after the expiration of the 90 day period.)

Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
I invented a new type of jam I am calling Super Purple!, because it is super-antioxidant, super-tasty, and very purple.
This jam is made from only a few ingredients and is a huge crowd pleaser. Try it with goat cheese!
A refreshing summer jam, perfect for taking out of your cupboard in the darkest days of winter.
A small batch of blueberry jam, infused with the flavor of fresh ginger and studded with candied ginger.
Mint brightens up this blueberry jam, made with the food mill to clean out all the leaves, twigs and stems in a wild blueberry pick. Simple yet delicious.
This is peach blueberry jam with a hint of orange liqueur and set using Pomona' Pectin. Pomona's was surprisingly forgiving to someone who was too tired to follow instructions when canning late at night.
It`s 2-4-1 time! Start by making a dreamy infusion with wild blueberries, keep the hooch and move on to a boozy woozy jam. Everybody wins with this one-time special!
What's your jam ethic? Do you insist on set? Texture? Flavour? For me, it's all about terroir. This gooey mess is absolutely awesome on goat cheese - even though you may want to eat it over the sink.
Blackberries & blueberries combine beautifully in this simple and flavorful jam.
This lightly spiced jam is made with blueberries and blackberries and is perfect served over hot buttermilk biscuits, pancakes, or in mini tart shells.

A draw between Honduras and Panama handed the USA and Costa Rica spots in the 2014 World Cup.
Honuras's 2-2 draw with Panama completed the qualification process for both sides, with the USA grabbing a 2-0 win over Mexico and Costa Rica taking a 1-1 draw with Jamaica earlier in the night.
The results of the eighth round of matches left the USA on top of the Hexagonal with 16 points, followed by Costa Rica on 15 and Honduras on 11.
Mexico ends the night level on points with Panama at eight, with the two teams set to face off in a vital qualifier on Oct. 11. El Tri will round out the Hex with a match against Costa Rica four days later.

The Grapes was a long-standing pub in Weatherfield. Back during the First World War, Albert Tatlock and Ted Ashley went there when they were on leave and had as good a time as soldiers then away from the front were wont to do. When Ted visited Weatherfield in March 1964, the two old men went on a round of their old haunts and that included The Grapes. Ted was aghast to see that it had been done up into a trendy bar where rich men talked about cars and equally well-to-do women gossiped about clothes and houses. Albert was more philosophical, saying that you couldn't stop progress but he did bemoan the fact that it wasn't as cosy as it had been years ago when he and his wife Bessie had frequently drunk there.
Whatever Albert's reservations, it was one of his stopping-off points on a pub crawl he indulged in on the eve of his wedding to Alice Pickins in September 1969. The party started off at the Rovers and as a heavily-hungover Albert related to daughter Beattie Pearson and Alice the next day they went on to the The Flying Horse, The Britannia, The Grapes, The Artisan, The Druid's Arms and The Top House before Albert was found singing If I Ruled the World slumped up against a lamppost in Burton Road.

The SPLASH/ICPC integrity marathon in Ibadan, Nigeria: incidence and management of injuries and marathon-related health problems
The growing interest in marathon runners and marathons in Nigeria has not been reflected in reports of injuries and other health problems associated with these events. This study therefore outlines the incidence of injuries, marathon-related health problems and delivery of physiotherapy at the maiden and second editions of the Splash 105.5 FM/ICPC Integrity Marathon in Ibadan city, south-west Nigeria in 2009 and 2010.
Using a data entry sheet, demographics and information on running experience, past and present injuries and other health problems reported en route and at the finish line by the runners were documented. The prevalence of injuries and other health problems reported by previous and first-time runners were compared.
In both events, 16.3% and 17.2% of the runners respectively reported injuries with significant occurrence in first-time runners (p = 0.003 for 2009; p = 0.002 for 2010) mostly at the finish line. The reported injury type and site were muscle cramps and the thigh (39.7% and 76.4% respectively). Heat exhaustion was reported by 42.8% of runners in 2009 and 56.3% in 2010. Cryotherapy was mostly used in combination with other physiotherapy modalities in both years.
Most of the injuries and other health problems were reported by first-time marathon runners mainly at the finish line. The most reported site of injury was the thigh while muscle cramps and heat exhaustions were the most reported types of injuries and health problems. First-time marathon runners should be adequately informed of the predisposition to injury during marathons and adequate body conditioning should be emphasized. Ample preparation and effective involvement of the physiotherapy team is essential for management of injured runners en route and at the finish line in a marathon.
During the last two decades, there has been a rising trend in marathon events and marathon runners
Running, due to its high impact nature is associated with many injuries, especially in the lower extremities, some of which include: runner's knee or chondromalacia patella, shin splints, muscle cramps especially the hamstrings, ankle sprains, iliotibial band syndrome, plantar fasciitis, achilles tendonitis, foot blisters and stress fractures. These injuries are usually caused by repetitive stress on the same tissues without enough time for recovery or lack of adequate muscle conditioning
The Splash 105.5 FM/ICPC marathon is organized annually by Splash FM, a private radio station in Ibadan south-west Nigeria with ICPC-the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission an anti-corruption agency set up by the Federal Government of Nigeria. The marathon is to celebrate the anniversary of the radio station and sensitize the populace about the fight against corruption in the Nigerian society. The two marathon events covered in this study took place on the 29th and 21st March 2009 and 2010 respectively. These events attracted several runners from many states some of whom were elite runners. This report presents the cases of injuries and other health problems that occurred at both events and were managed by physiotherapy.
Eight physiotherapists and two physiotherapy assistants volunteered to help in provision of on-field paramedical services during the competitions. Also in attendance were medical officers who managed other medical conditions that occurred during the event. Preparations were made for medical emergencies that could arise. The physiotherapists had a number of meetings with other members of the medical team including the officials of the Zonal National Sports Commission. Planning of physiotherapy service considered the nature of the route course and the expected weather conditions.
The months of October to March are usually very hot months in the tropics. The average peak temperature three days before the event in Ibadan city was 32°C for 2009 and 34°C for 2010. These were above the wet bulb globe temperature range of 23-28°C which is already classified as high risk for distance running by the International Marathon Medical Directors Association
The number of runners declined from 600 in 2009 to 320 in 2010 even though more males participated in both years (95.7% and 88.1%) respectively. The age range of runners was 17 to 37 years, mean age being 23.83 ± 3.49 years in 2009 and 26.67 ± 7.56 years in 2010. In 2009, 98 runners (16.3%) were managed for various injuries and other health problems sustained mostly by males (82.6%) (Table
Some runners reported injuries in only one part of the body while others reported in several parts. The most reported single site of injury was the thigh (39.7% and 76.4%) respectively for both years (Table

Treatment of injuries and other health problems using physical modalities and techniques
Treatment of injuries and other health problems using physical modalities and techniques.
This report examines the injuries and health problems that were treated using physical therapy at the Splash FM/ICPC Integrity marathon races in 2009 and 2010 in Ibadan, Nigeria. More males participated in both events and they had more injuries than the females. Both events recorded injuries in nearly one fifth of the runners. A broader comparison of our data could not be made with previous marathons in Nigeria or any other African country because published reports on these were not available. However, it was interesting to note that the prevalence of injuries and marathon-related health problems was significantly higher in first-time marathon runners than the elite runners. The predisposition to greater risk in the first-time marathon runners has been attributed to the fact that they are not elite athletes. Most of these first-time runners lacked awareness of and proper body conditioning necessary for a marathon race
Marathon events have been described as fashionable endurance competitions in which thousands of participants from all age groups compete, some even after relatively little training
Reports of injuries at the finish line were significantly higher than during the race. This may be because most of the injured runners did not want to lose any time, since the winner of the race would have hefty money prize. However, most of those who reported injuries at the finish line confirmed injury onset during the course of the race. They probably were able to reach the finish line by sheer perseverance.
The exceptional capability of humans to run long distances under hot arid conditions has been linked to the use of a suite of anatomical, physiological and behavioural features which are uniquely found in humans. The specialised ability of cardiorespiratory endurance system permits humans to store and release energy effectively during a race and helps to keep the body's centre of mass stable and overcome the thermoregulatory challenges of long distance running through sweating, evaporation and cooling
Considering the site and type of injury, the part of the body that was reported the most was the thigh while the nature of discomfort mostly reported for both years was muscle cramps. The thigh as the commonest injury site could be due to chafing usually caused by repetitive rubbing of one area of skin against another or against an article of clothing. This occurs mostly in the upper thigh during running
Cryotherapy was the most utilized single mode of physical treatment. It was used for about one fifth of the injured runners in the two races although most of them had combination treatments which included techniques such as bandaging, cooling, stretching, massage and bandaging among other possible combinations. Previous studies indicate that the application of massage manoeuvres alone after racing events does not appear to alleviate the physiological symptoms of endurance activities such as muscle strength loss, swelling or soreness much faster than the no treatment condition
A major weakness of this report however is that it was not possible to follow up on the participants to establish how many of them developed post-participation health problems such as muscle soreness, swelling and general body aches. It was noted that some injuries and other health problems may not have been reported and this could have resulted in an underestimation of the actual injuries and other health problems. However, all reported cases were recorded and attended to.
The maiden and the second editions of the Splash 105.5 FM/ICPC Integrity Marathon were successful with respect to care of injured participants. Most injuries were recorded among first-time marathon runners, mostly at the finish line. The part of the body most affected was the thigh and the most reported types of injury and health problem were muscle cramps and heat exhaustion. This report indicates that marathon events can safely take place in a resource-constrained nation and that ample preparation and effective involvement of the physiotherapy team is essential for management of injured runners en route and at the finish line in a marathon. First-time marathon runners should be adequately informed of the predisposition to injury during marathons and adequate body conditioning should be emphasized.
It is recommended that yearly scientific documentation of the injury profile of participants in subsequent marathons be done in order to facilitate adequate planning. Also, a cohort study on the marathoners is recommended to identify injuries and other health problems that may present days immediately after the event and the likely line of management.

BP, Hess Donate Millions to Support Hurricane Victims
Employee matching programs launched.
HOUSTON -- As the Gulf Coast continues to recover from the latest round of hurricanes, organizations including the American Red Cross, Salvation Army and the United Way will receive an $8 million pledge from BP and its employees.
"BP shares the nation's concern for those hit so hard by Hurricanes Ike and Gustav," Bob Malone, chairman and president of BP America, said in a statement. "As we work to return our offshore oilfields and Texas City refinery to full operation, we are also working to help communities and organizations like the American Red Cross provide assistance to the people who need it most. We hope that our contribution—along with those of millions of Americans—will help sustain a disaster response sure to last many months."
As part of the effort, the BP Foundation will match employee contributions on a one-to-one basis up to $1 million.
In related news, Hess Corp. will donate $3 million to the Gulf Coast Ike Relief Fund.
"We are deeply concerned for the welfare of the people suffering from the devastation caused by Hurricane Ike in Houston and the Gulf Coast," John Hess, chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Hess, said in a statement. "This fund, created by Houston Mayor Bill White, will help fill the unmet human needs of hurricane victims in Houston, as well as Harris and Galveston counties and other affected areas. We appreciate the heroic efforts of emergency personnel and all those who have responded to this tragedy."
In addition to its donation, Hess, like BP, offered a matching gift program for employees who wish to make a personal contribution. Under the campaign, Hess will match every donation employees make to the Hurricane Ike relief efforts by the American Red Cross, the United Way of Houston, the Salvation Army and the Gulf Coast Ike Relief Fund.

The Great Elixir was also known as The Essence of Vitality and The Water of Life. A drop of it consumed sent new life coursing through one's veins. It gave power, strength, and vitality greater than youth itself. It was centuries old, and there was very little of it in existence, contained in a Golden Flask no bigger than two fingers. According to the King of the Fairy Beavers it was a "fairy compound".
The Great Elixir belonged to the Chief of an Arabian Tribe and was handed down from father to son as an heirloom more priceless than diamonds. When the last Sheikh was trampled by a mad camel, he entrusted the Golden Flask to his hunting companion, Ali Dubh. Other Arab Sheiks wanted the Elixir, so Ali Dubh fled to America and settled near Grogrande Bakery.
When the rival Arabs followed him, Ali secretly entrusted the Golden Flask to Leontine Grogrande for safekeeping. Madame Tina, however, confused the Golden Flask with a Silver Flask containing a cure for rheumatism. She poured the Great Elixir into a bowl of water and rubbed some on her arms and legs, then went to bed feeling better than she had in years.
The next morning, her husband Jules, who was a baker, used the bowl his wife had left out to mix the ingredients for a life-sized gingerbread man whom he named John Dough. When the man was fully baked, he sprang to life, due to the nature of the Elixir. (John Dough and the Cherub)
The Great Elixir has an effect similar to the Powder of Life and the Re-animating Rays in Glegg's Box of Mixed Magic.

by Carey Wedler, The Anti Media:
On Thursday, the FBI and Department of Homeland Security released a joint analysis report addressing persistent allegations that the Russian government hacked the U.S. election.
Though, as the White House fact sheet asserts, the report largely consists of tips to improve cyber security and prevent future attacks, it also appears to cite evidence Russian Intelligence Services (RIS) actively attempted to hack into U.S. systems, a campaign the government has named "GRIZZLY STEPPE."
But as the media runs with the story and many outlets accept the 13-page report as fact, veterans of the intelligence community have pointed out flaws with the FBI-DHS analysis.
According to Philip Giraldi, a former CIA agent, the report fails to prove Russia is behind the hack. In a recent Facebook post, he asserted that "apart from assertions of Russian activity connected to an unnamed political party, [the report] provides absolutely no evidence that the alleged intrusions into the DNC servers were anything beyond normal intelligence agency probing for vulnerabilities."
"In fact," he adds, "it doesn't even provide the evidence for that."
Further, he argues:
"There is no evidence of particular mal-intent that can be traced back to the Russian government, much less to Vladimir Putin. Nine of the thirteen pages of the report deal with advice on how to keep your system from being hacked."
Robert M. Lee, a former U.S. Air Force Cyber Warfare Operations Officer and founder and CEO of cyber security firm Dragos, explains the report is confusing because it states early on that its intention is to aid "defenders" of the U.S. However, the report makes a point of declaring RIS guilty, veering away from the stated public service goals.
Lee highlights this convolution, highlighting two alleged groups included in the report:
"The public is looking for evidence of the attribution, the White House and the DHS/FBI clearly laid out that this report is meant for network defense, and then the entire discussion in the document is on how the DHS/FBI confirms that APT28 and APT29 are RIS groups that compromised a political party."
But that's not the only problem. As Lee points out, the report notes the FBI has previously refrained from naming specific actors in joint analysis reports — but does so for the purposes of this investigation, claiming they can confirm indicators of an attack from private sector attribution. Yet "the GRIZZLY STEPPE report reads like a poorly done vendor intelligence report stringing together various aspects of attribution without evidence," Lee writes.
Jeffrey Carr, a cybersecurity consultant and author of Inside Cyber Warfare, has bluntly rejected the allegations contained in the report:
"It merely listed every threat group ever reported on by a commercial cybersecurity company that is suspected of being Russian-made and lumped them under the heading of Russian Intelligence Services (RIS) without providing any supporting evidence that such a connection exists."
In contrast, Lee shies away from fully disregarding the report, issuing a "thank you" to "the government operators who did fantastic work and tried their best to push out the best information." But he also has words for those who conducted "the sanitation of that information and the report writing."

Jose Mourinho's captain has been left on the bench for recent matches, but he is aware that the side has been performing well without him
Although he started in the EFL Cup, Rooney was dropped in the wake of United's 3-1 loss at Watford last month.
The England international understood manager Jose Mourinho's decision after his display at Vicarage Road.
"Listen, I had a bad game at Watford. I played bad, I know that and I understand that," Rooney said, via The Independent.
"I think if he was picking the next team on the back of that, I understand not playing. The team have done well, certainly in the Leicester game since that.
"I understand I have to work hard and try and get back and try and get my chance and take it."
Mourinho had suggested Rooney returned from the previous international break a different player, with United losing three straight matches.
