On May 30, 2013, VTB and digital agency Ailove launched a unique internet project, "The Happiness Index".
"This research project is aimed at studying people's behaviour on social networking sites, which are popular with many of our customers, and identifying what makes them happy," VTB Senior Vice President and Head of the Press Office Vadim Sukhoverkhov said.
"Modern life and business are unimaginable without the internet. Integration with social networks is a necessary element of modern communication with clients. Now more than ever we have to understand how our customers spend their time on the internet in order to offer them the products and services they really need. The Happiness Index project seemed very interesting to us and very modern, and we have decided to support it." Vadim Sukhoverkhov added.
The Happiness Index is an interactive map of Russia tgat displays the happiness level for every Russian city and a separate index for each region. The project aims to identify what makes Russian internet users happy by studying their behaviour on the web. The index is based on four main sources of information: an analysis of keywords in posts on Facebook, VK and Twitter, user messages submitted to the project explaining what makes them happy, as well as news and weather. Users can calculate their personal happiness index by creating an account on the project website and then share it on social networking sites.
Ailove CEO Oleg Zhdanov believes the current method for calculating the official international happiness index is very detached from actual people, their feelings and perceptions. "So we decided to create a project that would analyse the subjective happiness of each individual internet user," Mr Zhdanov said. "The internet is an enormous repository of information that influences the way people think. By studying what makes people happy, analysing and interpreting the factors, we will be able to create and customise content that could potentially influence people's mood."
Soon the project will start analysing information from Instagram, Foursquare, and Twitter, including wall posts, tweets,
"We encourage everyone to take part in our study, visit the project's web site, log in and share what makes you happy," added Vadim Sukhoverkhov.
For news and facts about the study, please visit the project website and VTB's page on Facebook. The Happiness Index can be accessed at www.ruhappiness.ru.

Supervalu Reports Record Third Quarter
MINNEAPOLIS - Supervalu Inc. today announced record net earnings and earnings per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 which ended Dec. 1, 2001.
MINNEAPOLIS - Supervalu Inc. today announced record net earnings and earnings per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 which ended Dec. 1, 2001. The company reported sales for the third quarter of $4.6 billion, net earnings of $59.0 million, earnings per share of $0.44 and cash earnings per share of $0.51.
Jeff Noddle, Supervalu's president and CEO said, "Our above consensus third quarter results were driven by strong improvement in our retail operations including strong momentum at our extreme value retail format, Save-A-Lot. We also continue the important work of repositioning our distribution network for improved efficiency, completing the reconfiguration of five facilities so far this year. In addition, significant strides were made to Supervalu's financial position through working capital reductions and a more focused capital spending program that reduced funded debt by $142 million since fiscal 2001 year end."
Noddle continued, "Our strong performance is a direct result of our commitment to improve both execution and efficiency across our operations while investing selectively in the best growth opportunities for Supervalu. We are confident that the business strategies currently underway will differentiate us with our customers and drive improved financial results."
Retail Food Segment
In the third quarter, retail sales were $2.2 billion, an increase of 1.7 percent compared to last year. Excluding the sales associated with the exit of non-core and under-performing stores, retail sales would have increased approximately six percent. Comparable sales for the quarter were positive 0.7 percent marking steady progress in the current fiscal year. Since the prior year's third quarter, the company added 101 stores including 87 Save-A-Lot stores, 12 price superstores and two conventional supermarkets, excluding store closings. New store activity during the quarter resulted in 25 store openings, including 22 Save-A-Lot stores and three price superstores, bringing Supervalu?s total store network to 1,216, net of store closings that have occurred during the year.
Operating earnings of the retail business for the third quarter increased 37 percent to $93.5 million compared to last year. Operating margins rose 110 basis points as a percent of sales, representing a combination of growth and recovery across retail. Quarterly improvement benefited from more effective merchandising programs, improved store level execution, and comparable sales growth. EBITDA for the retail segment in the third quarter was $134.4 million, or 6.1 percent of sales, up 110 basis points compared to last year's third quarter. In the quarter, Supervalu's retail segment accounted for 48 percent of total company sales and 63 percent of total company operating profit.
Food Distribution Segment
Supervalu's food distribution business reported sales of $2.4 billion in the third quarter. Sales performance compared to the prior year primarily reflects last year's decision to end supply services to Kmart. In addition, Genuardi's, a Supervalu customer, was acquired by a third party and its volume transitioned during the third quarter.
Operating earnings of the food distribution business for the quarter were $54.9 million, which was down compared to last year.

By Jefferson Graham, USA TODAY
It turns out Apple's (AAPL) much-ballyhooed iPhone wasn't as big a seller as projected.
AT&T (T), the exclusive service provider for Apple's first cellphone, said Tuesday that it activated 146,000 iPhones after the first two days of sales, which fell on the final days of the second quarter. That is way below analysts' estimates, which had ranged from 500,000 to 1 million.
"It was a disappointment," says Gene Munster, an analyst at Piper Jaffray.
Munster earlier this week predicted Apple would announce sales of 500,000 iPhones when it reports quarterly earnings today. "We became victims of our own hype," Munster says.
He now believes Apple will announce sales of 200,000 phones today when it gives its first figures on what's been widely expected to be a key new product. That would count online sales, speculators who bought phones to sell on eBay and procrastinators who did not get around to activating their phones yet. Also, many first-weekend buyers complained of problems activating their phones.
Apple declined to comment. Tuesday, its shares fell 6.1%, closing at $134.89.
The iPhone — part iPod, cellphone and Internet device — was first announced in January. Apple's shares climbed from about $95 in January to a record high $143.75 on Friday.
The iPhone went on sale June 29 for $499 or $599, depending on the amount of memory included.
Scott Kessler, an equity analyst at Standard & Poor's, downgraded Apple shares this week. "People were looking for results that may very well have been unattainable," he says.
But Richard Doherty, an independent analyst at Envisioneering Group, calls the iPhone sales a success. "No consumer electronic product at that price point has ever sold 146,000 units in two days," he says.
He believes Apple will announce iPhone sales today of 225,000 to 300,000. Consumers, he says, are slower to activate devices than media critics and analysts are.
Meanwhile, investors looking to see the iPhone's impact on Apple's quarterly results may be disappointed. Sales of 200,000 phones would be worth more than $100 million, with an average price of $585 per phone, Munster says.
But Apple is spreading revenue from the iPhone and its Apple TV device over two years, spokesman Steve Dowling says.

5 Experiences that Happen in Early Sobriety
Early sobriety is a time of major chafe and transformation. Most recovering addicts find that everything they have ever thought or believed comes into question when they are first sober and able to see with some clarity for the first time in what may be a while.
Because early recovery is such a period of major transformation, there are many experiences that a newly recovering addict can expect to have when they first begin to live a drug and alcohol free life. Here are 5 experiences that many addicts find they have early in sobriety.
1. You Realize Who Your Real Friends Are
For many addicts, a major part of addiction is realizing the function that certain people have in their lives. An important part of recovery is learning to avoid people who may be triggers to use.
Those who behave in a way that may be upsetting or disrespectful should often be avoided. Similarly, people who are still using, or those who pressure or cause you to use should also be avoided.
In sobriety, you begin to be able to see the difference between those who actually care about your well-being and those who are just using you or who do not actually have your best interests at heart.
2. You Feel Emotions More Strongly
A very common reason that many people use drugs and alcohol is that they are trying to avoid strong and uncomfortable emotions. Over a period of time, a person who is addicted to drugs and alcohol may become very out of touch with their emotions.
In sobriety, however, you will suddenly find that you are no longer numbing emotions and, in fact, that you are feeling them quite strongly. This may be somewhat difficult to deal with, especially at first, but know that as you continue to work with your therapist, you will be better equipped to deal with your emotions.
3. You Will Understand That You Are Not Alone
Addiction can be a very alienating experience. When a person is using, they often feel that they are very alone and that no one quite understands what they are going through.
When you were using, perhaps you felt feelings of guilt, isolation, and shame. In sobriety, however, you will learn early on that you are nowhere near alone.
You will likely attend twelve step programs and maybe even group therapy sessions, where the stories you hear from other recovering addicts will help you realize that you are part of a very big and supportive community.
4. Your Goals Will Seem Achievable
One of the most devastating things about addiction can be watching the goals that you once wanted to accomplish seem more and more unrealistic. I sobriety, however, your goals will once again seem achievable.
You will rediscover a sense of hopefulness that perhaps you had not had for a very long time. You will have a newfound sense of confidence in yourself and the goals you once had will seem more achievable than ever before.
5. You Will Feel Respect For Yourself For The First Time In A While
Addiction and low self worth often go hand in hand. When a person is addicted to drugs and alcohol, they often feel powerless and may experience seriously diminished self esteem.
Getting sober is a huge accomplishment and you will feel, for perhaps the first time in quite some time, that you are a capable and able person who is deserving of love and respect. The by-product of this is that you will be make decisions that lead to happiness and health.

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Citigroup ( C)'s agreement to accept a lower valuation for its 49% stake in Morgan Stanley ( MS)Smith Barney is a "credit negative" for the bank, according to a report published Monday by Moody's Investors Service. On Tuesday, Citigroup and Morgan Stanley settled a dispute over the valuation of the wealth management unit, in which Morgan Stanley owns the remaining 51% stake. The newly agreed-upon price resulted in Citigroup's stake being written down to $6.6 billion, some 40% less than where Citigroup had been valuing it. The result will be a $4.7 billion charge to Citigroup's third quarter earnings. "The charge is credit negative and threatens Citigroup with a breakeven, or worse, quarter," writes Moody's analyst Sean Jones. Jones noted, however, that the write-down "will have a minimal effect on Citigroup's regulatory capital ratios." He points to Citigroup's estimate that a closely-watched "Tier I" capital ratio under new rules known as Basel III ended the second quarter at 7.9%, "similar to that of most of its US peers." Citigroup's bonds and common shares have both increased in price since Tuesday's agreement. Citigroup shares were up more than 8% over the past week shortly before noon on Monday, while yields on its 10-year bonds have fallen slightly even while yields on comparable 10-year Treasury bonds have climbed. -- Written by Dan Freed in New York.

|Please note: This article is about the Tortoise Clan Champion. For other uses of the term, please see Taigen (disambiguation).
|Kasuga Taigen
|Kasuga Shiriko,
Kasuga Eizan
|Kasuga Mino
|Tortoise Clan Champion
Kasuga Taigen was a Tortoise Clan Champion.
Training Edit
As part of his training in guile, subtlety, and humility, Taigen was a pickpocket and a petty thief when youth. [1]
Demeanor and Appearance Edit
Taigen was a weedy little man who seldom bathed and often forgot to shave. His hair was lank and greasy, missing several front teeth from his many childhood fights. He was greasy, dirty, and spoke with a distinct stutter. Despite his appearance, Taigen had a way of making others listen to him, reasonable and charming. [1]
Clan Champion Edit
Taigen became the Champion after his elder sister, Kasuga Shiriko, chose to forgo her birthright as daimyo in order to continue serving the clan in the field. [2] Taigen had a brother, Kasuga Eizan, and bore a daughter, Kasuga Mino, who was married to Kaiu Sugimoto, the Keeper of Earth. [3]
Four Winds Edit
During the Four Winds struggle Taigen sided with Hantei Naseru, reporting him everything he learned. The Tortoise were regarded as ruffians, and criminals, so he threw his lot to the candidate to the Imperial Throne who better could appreciate the Tortoise spy network. His clan would be doomed with any Emperor who did not understand the importance of the Tortoise's ancestral duty. [1]
Kolat Conspiracy Edit
It was evident the kolat operated in the Imperial City when a Sleeper Agent was uncovered by the Emerald Champion, an assassin sent to kill Naseru. Since then, Taigen sought to root out evidence of the Kolat using all his contacts. One of his allies in this endeavor was an old comrade from the War of Spirits, Moshi Shanegon. Taigen had no idea that Shanegon was Master Coin, and the Kolat Master subtly turned the Tortoise in the wrong direction. [4] Taigen surrounded him by loyal Tortoise Bushi who would weed out the Kolat wherever he found them. [5]
Fall of Otosan Uchi Edit
In 1159 during the Fall of Otosan Uchi Taigen was in the North Hub Village when he met Yogo Koji, the Yogo Daimyo. The Scorpion requested the Tortoise Clan join the incoming Scorpion forces lead by Bayushi Yojiro, and march together in the defense of the Imperial City. [6]
Ruined City Edit
The Tortoise, Wolf Legion, and the Yotsu family did not leave the city, even after it was in ruins. He was visited by the historian Miya Hatori, and his aides Fuzake Sekkou and Otomo Taneji. [7]
Alliance of the Minor Clans Edit
In 1165 Taigen created the Alliance of Minor Clans with the help of Kitsuki Mizuochi, [3] to give the Minor Clans a voice in the Imperial Court. [8] Taigen was designated the ambassador of the Alliance at Toshi Ranbo. [3]
Gozoku Edit
Taigen held a meeting with the Alliance representatives in the Smiling Tortoise sake house. He loobied to intervene in favor of the Dragon in the War of the Rich Frog. They also agreed to hunt bloodspeaker cells, being Iuchiban a threat to the Empire. When he left the assembly visited Kakita Munemori almost immediately thereafter. His brother had followed him in secret, and feared if Taigen embraced the Gozoku could harm him. [3]
Mino's Wedding Edit
In 1166 Taigen and the Crab Clan Champion, Hida Kuon, arranged the marriage of Taigen's daughter, Kasuga Mino, with the recently Keeper of Earth, Kaiu Sugimoto. [9]
Plotting an assassination Edit
In 1168 the courtier Kasuga Taman, who was seen as a wicked man for many other clans, attended the Winter Court at Kyuden Otomo. Yoritomo Okuma leaked information from an investigation in an effort to destroy Taman. Taigen plotted to have Okuma assassinated after Winter Court. [10]
Kudo Mura Edit
Taiken worked with Toku Inao to create the seat of power of the Minor Clan Alliance, where the Great Clans could find a member of any Minor Clan. They chose Kudo, with its convenient central location, with the understanding that Inao's youngest daughter Toku Kiyuko would become the city's governor. [11] Taigen began to spend more time there, but he was not especially happy with Kiyuko's appointment as governor, but accepted it as a necessary concession to gain support from the Monkey Clan. [12] When the Lion Clan occupied Kudo Mura, Taigen issued orders to his samurai for Kiyuko to marry a Tortoise and thus bring Kudo Mura under Tortoise control. [11]
Apparent Heir Edit
His brother Eizan would become the next Champion after Taigen. This worried him, because Eizan lacked the concern for the welfare of others. Kasuga was worried about what would happen if his brother ever assume leadership of the Clan, but in 1170 Taigen had a grandson who became his heir. [13]
Seppuku Edit
Like all her predecessors, Empress Iweko I met with the Tortoise Clan Champion soon after her ascension to the Throne. Kasuga Taigen explained his crimes and offered his seppuku and it was rejected as always. Years later Iweko I summoned Taigen to an audience and commanded him to commit seppuku for failing to inform the Empire of neither the Army of Dark Fire nor the Destroyers, both external threats. [14]
Legacy Edit
His grandson Kasuga Masaji was the Tortoise Champion in the late 12th century. [15]

The Cowboys signed free agent defensive tackle Henry Melton on Wednesday. On Thursday, Melton said he didn't interact with Jerry while visiting with the Cowboys. Melton said Stephen was the point man while Jerry was away on a business trip. http://cowboysblog.**************/2...d-in-dallas-cowboys-personnel-decisions.html/

The 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle is one of those timeless designs that looks good no matter how the car is built. Stock, modified, race, pro-touring, whatever; the clean lines and balanced stance on these tough looking muscle cars create a modern look with classic swagger that is an excellent platform for major modifications. Best of all, their universal appeal and high production numbers mean that the Chevelle has one of the largest networks of aftermarket support in the collector car hobby. Born from that awesome combination of appeal and support, this convertible 1970 Chevelle mixes traditional good looks and drop-top fun with serious modern performance hardware.
When searching for the perfect pro-touring Chevelle, there is no shortage of hard top coupes. But when one wants the appeal and fun of a convertible mixed with custom good looks, you have to search a little harder. RK Motors Charlotte presents you this handsome 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle convertible. Covered in a vivid coat of Flame Red and accented by painted White stripes, this drop-top does a great job of showing off the car's chiseled, athletic lines that are complemented with traditional looks. Due to being fresh out of a frame-off restoration that was completed in 2015, the stainless trim presents very well and the chrome pieces adorning the body show mirror-like reflections. The front fenders are dressed with "SS LSX" branded badges in the conventional locations, while a "Chevelle by Chevrolet" badge rests on the rear trunk lid. Authentic 'T3' headlights, seated in very clean bezels, flank the 'SS' branded grill. And with the white, vinyl top up or down, the complete package looks great sitting on polished 18'' Billet Specialties wheels.
Release the hood pins to reveal a Chevrolet Performance supplied, electronic fuel injected LS376 V8 that is rated for 525 horsepower! Cradled in satin black fenders and a flattened firewall, the engine bay is well sorted and highlighted with faux carbon fiber accents throughout. A polished alternator and A/C compressor spin on a Billet Specialties Tru Trac serpentine system with polished pulleys, while cooling comes from an aluminum C&R Racing radiator with dual speed electric fans. Supplementing the internal combustion of the 6.2L engine are Hedman headers that help the engine breath, and Fast Fuel rails that provide fuel to the cylinders. Adding a bit of flash is a polished brake booster and master cylinder, and billet hood hinges provide support while onlookers admire the clean engine bay.
Backing the 525 horsepower LS3 is a proven Tremec T56 6-speed manual transmission. Used in factory applications such as the Dodge Viper and Chevrolet Corvette, the T56 is no stranger to high-horsepower muscle cars and is a favorite among pro-touring enthusiasts. It spins power to a tough, Posi-traction 12 bolt rear axle that is stuffed with 3.70 gears, making the perfect combination of mind-blowing acceleration and highway-friendly cruising. Exhaust travels through a mandrel bent exhaust system that breathes through Magnaflow mufflers and has a great contrast against the satin black floors. To create a pleasant driving experience beyond horsepower and torque, the builders of this Chevelle put a lot of thought into the handling of the car and upgraded the suspension with a 4-link rear and tubular control arms at both ends with Hotchkis components. At all four corners you'll find Viking coilover adjustable shocks, as well as power disc brakes that feature cross-drilled and slotted rotors for extra cooling. Front and rear sway bars further stiffen the chassis, while 2 inch drop spindles give the car an appealing stance. That stance sits on staggered 18 inch Billet Specialties wheels that are wrapped in 245/45R18 front and 285/40ZR18 rear Nitto NT555 Extreme ZR tires.
Open the doors to a classic interior that's been enhanced with some modern amenities. At first glance, the white vinyl interior makes for a nice contrast with the black dash and black carpets. Nestled in the dash is Dakota digital VHX gauges that are housed in the factory locations, and Vintage Air climate controls keep cabin temperatures comfortable. A traditional AM/FM radio deck has iPod connectivity with CD controls, and powers hidden speakers located throughout the cabin. Familiar Strato bucket seats center a black console that houses a chrome hurst shifter, topped by a white cue ball knob. And connecting the driver to the machine is a traditional 3-spoke steering wheel that operates a power steering system. And behind the passengers, the trunk is finished with a clean and correct mat and houses the re-located battery.
- A binder containing various component manuals
Practically fresh from the paint booth, this 1970 Chevelle mixes everything that is great about the pro-touring hobby. Classic looks, customized curb appeal, and modern hardware provides the perfect blend for a machine that demands respect. With a roof that drops down, you're set for years of enjoyment on rural back roads or on the show field. If you're ready to stand out with an iconic muscle car that brings pro-touring attitude and drop-top fun, this 1970 Chevelle is your kind of car!

Mira V – Rope Fetish 2
Released: September 13, 2015
Mira V looks like such a sweet country girl as she strolls through the fields, but when she stumbles upon a length of rope in a derelict building, it inspires her to explore her darker side. In her fantasies, we see her dressed in a sexy transparent outfit and bound around the wrists and one ankle. She toys with the rope, spreading her legs to reveal her bare pussy. She begins to rub her clit and slides her fingers right into her juicy slot. As her excitement builds, she frees one hand so she can tug the rope back and forth along her slippery groove, then squats to finger herself harder and deeper. Her orgasm pushes boundaries in a delightfully wet and kinky manner…

Jamie Lee Curtis Tweets a picture where she channels her mom from one of her most famous roles!
An overturned tractor-trailer blocked the east bound lane of I20 this morning causing backups and delays.
Secretary of State John Kerry described how the government in Syria, led by President Bashar al-Assad, used chemical weapons in an attack on its own citizens, killing 1,429 people, including 426 children. The problem? Kerry (reportedly) used a photo from the 2003 Iraq War. Kerry then suggested that the United States must respond, or take the chance that other dictators might act similarly.

Effective g&t work needs "a strong chain of partnership" running through it, according to Phil Creek, g&t adviser for the South West GateWay g&t online initiative. "It needs to link children, parents, schools, trainers, advisory services and universities."
This vision is gradually taking shape across the country, with numerous models - including school clusters, regional networks and national agencies such as Nagty - capable of drawing in expertise from all quarters.
A key to forging strong regional partnerships is to have a central body of committed individuals with a firm grasp of the g&t philosophy, who are capable of commanding trust and taking people with them, says Ann Bridgland, senior g&t adviser in East Sussex. "It is also a great advantage when local authorities have a tradition of interdependence to build on."
She believes this has helped set up Seagul, the gifted and talented network linking seven south-east region authorities, which is delivering important opportunities for research, professional development and g&t pupil enrichment.
Partnership can be a great help in identifying g&t children, says Derek Battersby at the South West GateWay. In a recent project with Plymouth University (see panel) teachers and pupils from a range of schools worked together and teachers emerged better placed to spot their own most gifted children.
Battersby argues that there is a need for more flexible "open door" approaches to g&t identification that reflect the developmental leaps children make at different stages in their careers and their varying levels of motivation.
Katy Ball, Nottingham g&t strand coordinator, agrees that g&t identification needs to be far broader than relying on standard aptitude and intelligence tests - which "won't necessarily spot the child with the historical bent for whom an archaeology summer school course is a must". She emphasises the need to offer both short- and long-term gains through the one-off event and the prolonged course - such as the advanced maths Saturday school for year 6-11 students that has been running at Nottingham University for the past four years.
"We have been able to build in a research element to the course, tracking the value it has added to those children who opted to come, as against their fellow g&t contemporaries who did not take up places."
Approached in the right way, g&t work should benefit the school as a whole, says Ian Warwick, director of development for London Gifted & Talented. "It is all very well taking children out of class and giving them wonderful opportunities, but the key thing is ensuring that their gain is fed back into school."
He gives the example of recent collaboration with the British Library, which enabled g&t students to explore various texts through high challenge games; in subsequent discussions with schools, English as an alternative language teachers found they could adapt the project for their own students.
Forging imaginative and ambitious partnerships beyond school boundaries is important to London Gifted & Talented. "We look for allies that will enable us to offer uniquely 'real world' problem-solving challenges," says Warwick. "For example, CrossRail - which invited one group of g&t students to Canary Wharf to work on an engineering solution to the building of an underwater station nearby."
In south-east London another collaborative model has seen two state girls' schools join an independent girls' school, Bromley High, to explore the needs of their most gifted students. It's proved successful because of the good working relationships already established between the three heads involved, says Sue Mordecai, the local authority's g&t coordinator.
"This is far from us taking on state school pupils and hot-housing them," explains Lorna Duggelby, head of Bromley High. "It is about enabling the girls to discuss their needs - a very revealing exercise."
The girls' discussions have brought up challenges for their schools over the curriculum and setting, and have highlighted the frustration some feel when going at a slower pace in class than they'd like. "This raises issues about the girls' socialising skills that run alongside their academic needs," says Duggelby.

Evgeni Nabokov stopped a career-high 50 shots and Patrick Marleau scored the lone goal in a shootout to give the San Jose Sharks a 3-2 road victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday night.
Marleau drew Jimmy Howard to the left side and beat him with a high shot.
"I came in and just waited for him to make a move," Marleau said. "He tried for the poke check and I was able to get around him."
Joe Thornton and Dwight Helminen scored in regulation for the Sharks. It was the Western Conference leaders' first win in four games this season with Detroit (1-2-1).
San Jose rebounded from their lone loss in the last five games, a 3-0 result in Columbus on Wednesday.
Johan Franzen and Jason Williams scored for Detroit, and Howard made 24 saves.
With the result, Detroit (27-21-12) failed to climb out of ninth place in the Western Conference. They trailed Calgary by two points heading into Thursday's action.
The Red Wings have lost their last four games (0-2-2).
"We did battle back and get one point out of it," Red Wings captain Nicklas Lidstrom said. "But I think we had some quality chances to win the game, too. Their goalie was the difference. He made some great saves."
Howard was sharp early on, stretching to make a save on Devin Setoguchi in the slot. Setoguchi had been set up nicely by a Dany Heatley pass.
With San Jose forward Jed Ortmeyer in the penalty box, the Wings passed the puck up ice to set up the power-play goal. Franzen took Henrik Zetterberg's pass and fired a shot from the right circle over Nabokov's glove.
It was Franzen's second game after missing four months because of left knee surgery. The goal was his second of the season and first since his return.
"I think we played good. We played with a lot of speed," Franzen said. "It looked like last year, not like the past two months here."
The Sharks replied just 25 seconds later. Thornton was at the side of the net to take Niclas Wallin's original shot off the back boards and stuff it in before Howard could get in position.
It was Thornton's third goal against the Red Wings this season.
"To have Jumbo's [Thornton] line come right back and respond was big," San Jose coach Todd McLellan said. "It got everybody up on the bench."
Nabokov gave a hint of things to come with a strong save on Lidstrom's point blast, and the Red Wings would get caught in a breakdown as the period ended.
Helminen was left alone in the slot to follow through on his shot with 10 seconds left in the period.
It was Helminen's second NHL goal, the first coming last season while he was a member of Carolina.
He grew up in Brighton, 40 miles west of Detroit, and played at the University of Michigan.
"That's one I'll remember for sure," Helminen said. "I had a lot of family at the game."
The Wings would outshoot San Jose 31-15 over the final two periods, finally tying the game on the Williams score with just over seven minutes left.
Williams beat Nabokov with a wrist shot from the right face-off dot for his fourth of the season. It wasn't originally called a goal, but play has halted 12 seconds later for a video review, which showed the puck went in and out under the crossbar.
Defenceman Niklas Kronwall missed his fourth game with a sore left knee. The Swede had previously played in five games for the Wings after missing two months because of a left knee injury.
Detroit will host Ottawa on Saturday night in a Hockey Night in Canada (CBC, CBCSports.ca, 7 p.m. ET).
Should Kronwall not be able to play against the Senators, his participation in the Olympics is doubtful.

Earlier today, Sammobile spotted a post on Weibo, a popular Chinese social media platform, which said that Samsung's rumoured Galaxy C5 Pro and Galaxy C7 Pro handsets will be released in December. The devices were first spotted a couple of months ago but the new rumour adds more truth to the fact that Samsung is willing to push through more large-display handsets in global markets following the demise of Galaxy Note 7.
Samsung looking to refresh A series with Galaxy A8 (2016)
The timeline of their release suggests that Samsung is trying to earn some much-needed revenue from low-cost handsets before it releases Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 flagship phones in February of next year. A rumour did suggest that Samsung will launch another Note-series phone next year but that doesn't mean that the company wouldn't work on it's A-series and C-series phones in the meantime.
The Galaxy C5 Pro is, as per the latest rumour, expected to arrive featuring a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor while the C7 Pro will be featuring a Snapdragon 626 processor. The smaller Galaxy C5 and C7 phones feature Snapdragon 617 and Snapdragon 625 processors respectively, so the overall performance output in all four phones will be quite similar. It will thus be interesting to see if the new phones will, apart from larger displays and probably stronger batteries, bring in any new features or capabilities which will incentivise buyers to pay more for them rather than buy cheaper Galaxy C5 and C7 phones.
Samsung Galaxy C5 takes on iPhone SE with 8-MP selfie cam
As per recent reports, Samsung is also planning to sell refurbished Galaxy Note 7 phones in emerging countries like India and Vietnam to get rid of existing stocks and to bring in some revenue before it launches new flagship phones next year. However, India had refused permission to Apple when the Cupertino giant had proposed to sell refurbished iPhones in India, so we're not sure if Samsung will get the required permission to sell refurbished variants of the Galaxy Note 7, a phone which was banned in Indian flights following a series of unexplained explosions earlier this year.

UK food industry
The food industry is one of the biggest ones in the UK, given that the country is 60% self-sufficient when it comes to food production. This statistic is more important to keep in mind than ever, given that Brexit, that would most likely lead to increases in prices of imported foods, is not too far off.
Given that people's learning abilities are at its finest at a young age, it is best to start teaching children how to cook as soon as possible. Keep reading to learn how the founder of AlphaBake Cookery franchise is enabling many children to do just that.
The most important thing to keep in mind when starting a food business is how that business is going to address a gap in the market. AlphaBake Cookery (formerly Cookies Cooking School) started because the founder didn't like the fact that so many people relied on TV dinners and wanted to ensure that her children knew how important, and fun, it is to cook homemade meals.
Is AlphaBake Cookery an opportunity for me?
AlphaBake Cookery is a children's franchise established initially as Cookies Cooking School 13 years ago by a mother of three. Today's success of the franchise is a testament to how well the founder has identified the gap in the market and addressed it. The idea was to ensure that children had the necessary cooking skills they would need later in life as students and adults. AlphaBake Cookery offers fun cooking classes with hands-on learning in a group environment.
If you are motivated by the idea of working with children and making their lives better, and want to run a business that doesn't get in the way of your family obligations and other responsibilities, AlphaBake Cookery franchise might be perfect for you. There are certain certifications a prospective AlphaBake Cookery franchisee would need to obtain, such as First Aid and Level 2 Hygiene, with which the franchise can help. A UK driving license is also required. The franchise doesn't expect its franchisees to have a background in cooking or even business management, but it does require franchisees to have excellent communication skills and to be able to work with children.
In exchange for the right personality for the job and start-up costs on £7,950, you as an AlphaBake Cookery franchisee would have access to the full start-up kit of equipment and a comprehensive library of recipes. You would have your own exclusive territory on which you would operate, and your own section on the AlphaBake Cookery website, and be set up with an e-mail account. The training and support include an introduction to a tried and tested business model, business management, accounting, marketing and PR. Marketing materials are also included in the package. The support is provided not only at the start, but also throughout all stages of running your AlphaBake Cookery business.

#1 Travel Trade: Try a New Facebook Marketing Strategy
Author: Emeric Ernoult for Tro Smith
Why read this article?
The travel trade are almost unilaterally missing out on a major Facebook marketing opportunity. They continue to use Facebook along traditional advertisements → impressions → conversions marketing lines, however Facebook is much better suited to a strategy built around referral marketing. Referral marketing is one of the most effective forms of marketing, so how do you go about implementing a referral marketing strategy on Facebook?
What's the PULSE on This?
- o
- The travel trade should stop using Facebook as a platform for broadcasting advertisements about their products and services. It just doesn't work.
- In order to attract new customers they should instead concentrate on building meaningful relationships with their current customers and fan base. This will lead to more valuable conversions.
- Do you have raving fans? You should leverage these fans and ask them to leave a testimonial on your Page about their experience with your brand. It would be even better to ask them to create a short video testimonial; fans are more likely to share that type of enthusiasm for your brand.
- Using a 3rd party app like AgoraPulse will allow you to identify your raving fans and ask the right people for this type of review.
- Before you incentivise your fans, make sure that you are targeting fans that are happy with the experience they have had with your brand, they will give you the best reviews. Leverage this satisfaction and reward your raving fans.
#2 5 Facebook Stats That Should Wow B2B Marketers
Author: Casie Gillette, KO Marketing Associates
Why read this article?
Is Facebook a useful marketing platform for B2B marketers? We regularly come across discussions covering exactly this subject and our answer is always the same – yes, but you need to have a strategy. If you remain unconvinced, we suggest that you take a look at these stats; you might just change your mind J
What's the PULSE on This?
- o
- People are less reliant on traditional search engines when they are searching for information; Facebook is now one of the top resources that people use to research products and services that they are interested in.
- This presents an opportunity for B2B brands to use social media to attract and engage with new customers. In order to do this they need to make sure that their other online presences such as websites and blogs tie in with their social media presence.
- There are now more mobile devices in use worldwide than there are people. Is your business website ready, mobile and social?
- People spend more time researching online than in the past. Facebook now accounts for 1 in 5 page-views. What does this mean for B2B? It means that it is important to streamline marketing messages across all online channels including company websites and Facebook Pages.
- B2B brands need to concentrate on creating brand experiences for their fans rather than extolling the benefits and features of their products and services. Be social, listen to your customers and build a community around them.
- Use emoticons where relevant – they result in 33% more shares.
#3 New Design Introduced for Like and Share Buttons
Author: Cindy King, Social Media Examiner
Why read this article?
Facebook has introduced a new design for both Like and Share buttons to help people share content across the web. Facebook announced that "If you are currently using the old Like button, you'll be automatically upgraded to the new design as part of their roll out."
What's the PULSE on This?
- o
- Facebook is constantly updating and improving their sharability options.
- New like and share buttons are being rolled out in tandem with other great updates, making it easier for fans to share your content both on and off Facebook.
#4 Jon Sheds Light on How to Monitor Dark Posts
Author: Jon Loomer, Jon Loomer Digital
Why read this article?
Creating dark (or unpublished) posts is a great way to create ad variations that reach the News Feeds of your target audience. Many of our clients have had success using this Facebook advertising strategy, but monitoring comments can be a challenge because the posts aren't published to their Facebook Page. Here Jon Loomer talks through some creative solutions to the problem.
What's the PULSE on This?
- o
- The solution? Select 'manage pages' within Power Editor. This will allow you to select an individual post and view the activity on that post.
- Dark posts that feature videos, photos and text updates can be viewed in the ads manager preview; however this just won't cut it if you are sharing links.
- Watch Jon Loomer's video for a full walk-through
#5 Improve your Facebook Marketing with Insights Data
Author: Emeric Ernoult for Social Media Examiner
Why read this article?
Emeric has previously talked us through the six key Insights metrics that Facebook Marketers should analyse to understand how their page is performing. Finding and understanding these metrics is only one half of the equation, in this follow up article Emeric explains how to use this information to improve your Page's performance.
What's the PULSE on This?
- o
- By comparing one metric against another relevant metric you may be able to identify where you might be going wrong on your Page.
- Looking at all of your metrics as one 'big picture' won't give you great insight into areas that can be improved. You need to compare specific metrics against other relevant metrics to get any real actionable data.
- If you find that reach is down, the best solution is to promote posts that are getting the best reach and engagement.
- If your organic reach metric is only slightly higher than your fans reached metric then you need to start sending more traffic to your Facebook Page from external sources such as your website or blog.
- Looking for more engagement? Start asking questions and publish more sharable content.
- If negative feedback is too high you may need to review the voice of your Facebook page. What sort of tone do you use? Are your posts about positive things or negative ones?
- When sharing photo or video content, make sure that it good enough to entice your fans to want to click, play and share.
#6 Why Facebook is Not for Teens (Yet)
Author: Justin Lafferty, Inside Facebook
Why read this article?
It's no secret that Facebook is not the most popular social media platform among teenagers. The fact is, it's just not cool enough and teenagers seem to prefer private messaging apps like WhatsApp. Does this mean that the long-term future of Facebook is in jeopardy?
What's the PULSE on This?
- o
- Facebook may not be the social network of choice for current teens, but as they mature their preference may move back towards Facebook, where they can interact with a wider community of friends, colleagues and associates.
- Facebook is constantly adapting to changing consumer preferences, it has come a long way since users needed an .edu email address to access the site.

South Africa Lifts Ban on Elephant Killing
South Africa (Feb.08) – South Africa announced Monday that it was
reversing a 1995 ban on killing elephants to help control their booming
population, drawing instant outrage from animal-rights
activists.Elephants walk along trail June 1, 2007, in South Africa's
Kruger National Park. The country's elephant population has more than
doubled since culling was banned in 1995.Environment Minister Marthinus
van Schalkwyk did not say how many elephants could be killed, saying
only that some animal-rights groups' estimates of 2,000 to 10,000 were
"hugely inflated.""Culling will only be allowed as a last option and
under very strict conditions," van Schalkwyk told reporters. "Our
simple reality is that elephant population density has risen so much in
some southern African countries that there is concern about impacts on
the landscape, the viability of other species and the livelihoods and
safety of people living within elephant ranges."
Johannesburg-based group Animal Rights Africa threatened to call for
international tourist boycotts and protests and to take legal
action.South Africa's elephant population has ballooned to more than
20,000 from 8,000 in 1995, when international pressure led to a ban on
killing them.Elephants require great tracts of land to roam in order to
get their daily diet of about 660 pounds of grass, leaves and twigs,
and they are increasingly coming into conflict with people in the
competition for land.Van Schalkwyk also announced that the government
is prohibiting the capture of wild elephants for commercial purposes —
a move likely to draw fire from a fast-growing industry in
elephant-back safaris.In addition, he said, the government is drawing
up regulations to govern treatment of the country's 120 captive
elephants. Van Schalkwyk said his department had received "numerous
complaints" about cruel training practices including the use of
electric prodders.All three measures are part of a comprehensive update
to South Africa's elephant policy that the government calls an attempt
to manage the needs of elephants with those people, killing some of the
animals humanely while eliminating the unnecessary and sometimes
treatment of tamed elephants.The new regulations on managing elephants,
effective May 1, say killing must be through "quick and humane methods
and a rifle with minimum caliber of .375," and used along with other
measures such as contraception by injection and moving elephants to new
Van Schalkwyk said the debate over killing elephants was marked by "strong emotions."
are few other creatures on earth that have the ability of elephants to
'connect' with humans in a very special way," he said.In addition,
elephant populations in other countries are low, elephants are classed
as "vulnerable" worldwide, and trade in ivory has been banned since
1989 to try to combat poaching.The new regulation said that elephants'
survival often depends on their operation as a family unit, and "an
elephant may not be culled if it is part of a family unless the
matriarch and juvenile bulls are culled as well."It said killing may be
carried out only under a plan prepared with a recognized
elephant-management ecologist and approved by relevant
authorities.Animal Rights Africa said killing elephants was "undeniably
cruel and morally reprehensible" as well as counterproductive."It's
hugely problematic and it does the opposite of what they want it to
do," spokeswoman Michele Pickover said.
She argued that when
elephants are killed, the herd automatically breeds more, and other
elephants move into the space of the slain elephants, resulting in a
larger population than before the killing.Her organization also argues
that there are not too many elephants in South Africa.She also said the
latest research has proved that elephants have a sense of
self-awareness and cognitive powers that place them in a special
category together with great apes, dolphins and humans."How much like
us do elephants have to be before killing them becomes murder?"
Pickover asked.A total of 14,562 elephants were killed in South Africa
between 1967 and 1994. Without that campaign, their numbers would have
rocketed by now to 80,000, according to the national parks service.
Many elephants were traumatized by the killings and some became aggressive as a result.
Scholes, lead author of the elephant management regulations,
acknowledged to reporters that there is a "down side" to killing."It
changes the way they behave, there is a lot of evidence for social
behavioral consequences as a result of culling" he said. The new
regulations say that killing should not be carried out near other
elephants.Contraception also is fraught with problems. A female
normally breeds every four years and does not mate while nursing. With
contraception, a female comes on heat every four months — but does not
fall pregnant — and so suffers the physical stress of frequent
copulation with bulls four times her weight.
And moving
elephants, another alternative, can be prohibitively expensive.The era
of the big white hunter in the 1900s brought Africa's elephants near to
extinction. South Africa had just 200 elephants at the turn of the
century.Now South Africa, Namibia and Botswana all have booming
elephant populations — a result of their conservation efforts — while
those of east and west African nations are struggling because of
large-scale poaching.Van Schalkwyk said he had discussed the new
regulations with other southern African countries facing the same
dilemma.Botswana has by far the largest population, with an estimated
165,000 elephants. Zimbabwe has an estimated 80,000 and Mozambique some

Plans to build housing for the homeless at a site near Wilmington's Greenfield Lake have changed
Redevelopment plans to build housing for the homeless at a site near Wilmington's Greenfield Lake have changed somewhat.
Last week, the city council voted unanimously to change an agreement with Lakeside Partners of Wilmington Inc., which has a plan to build housing to help people who were homeless.
The housing is slated for the site of the former Adrian B. Rhodes Armed Forces Reserve Center, which the city demolished earlier this year. The city owns the 4.26-acre property at 2144 W. Lake Shore Drive, although the city plans to transfer ownership to Lakeside Partners.
According to a 2010 agreement between Lakeside Partners and the city, the plan was to build up to 24 housing units with a mix of bedrooms to house both families and individuals.
Lakeside's new plan, which the city council supported, is to build 40 units for individuals.
Watson Barnes, partnership president, said the new plan was presented at a community meeting last month.
"The response from the neighbors was positive and supportive," he said.
Johnnie Henagan, the president of Sunset Park's neighborhood association, said the he personally prefers the new plan. He said he has not polled the neighborhood but that it is not opposed to the new plan. "We wish it success," he said.
Initially, the Lakeside partnership was composed of the Wilmington Interfaith Hospitality Network, the Good Shepherd Center and Wilmington Housing Finance and Development Inc. Only Good Shepherd Center remains a member.
Katrina Knight, Good Shepherd's executive director, has said the units will be "permanent supportive housing." The housing will cater to people with disabilities who could currently be in transitional housing.
Residents, who would have a lease with Lakeside, will get on-site services and assistance provided by staff from Good Shepherd.
"It's not a shelter situation," Knight told council members. "It's not transitional housing."
The single-story development would include one building with 16 units and common space and six buildings with four units each. It will likely be built in phases.
The city formed a committee in 2006 to consider uses for the building, which would later be donated by the U.S. Department of Defense. City officials determined federal guidelines required the city to use the donated property to help the homeless. The center closed in 2011 and the city officially accepted the property in 2012.
The city still needs to rezone the property to allow for redevelopment.

Thermostat Wiring Diagrams – Heat pumps are wired for HVAC control far differently than air conditioning systems so make sure you know the difference and correctly identify the type of HVAC system you have installed.
Thermostat Wiring Diagrams
With the top diagram showing an air conditioning system and the second diagram showing a heat pump system and finally the third diagram showing the average type of split system with an air conditioner or gas or oil furnace used for heating. The heating system could also be a boiler, however, is it necessary to ensure with split systems and the type of heating systems described that you do not have dual transformers in the system or to at least be aware that the system has dual transformers. Whenever in doubt call a professional.
Thermostat Wiring Diagrams - HVAC Control - Heat Pump Systems
Heat pumps are different than air conditioners because heat pumps use the process of refrigeration to heat and cool. While an air conditioner uses the process of refrigeration to only cool the central air conditioner will usually be paired with a gas furnace, an electric furnace, or some other method of heating. So while the air conditioner is used extensively in warm or hot weather the heat pump is used year round. The heat pump system has different controls than an air conditioner, it has its own heat pump sequence of operation so a heat pump works differently than an air conditioner so will require a different thermostat and different wiring than an air conditioner. Sometimes, depending on the thermostat and the manufacturer, the thermostat can be a dual heat pump thermostat or it can be used for an air conditioner and gas furnace system depending on how the thermostat is wired. Always make sure you know what type of system you have before doing any wiring.
