73% of the CEO
Brian T. Moynihan
I have been working at Merrill Lynch as an intern for less than a year
Pros – Worked with tons of friendly people
Cons – Did not get to do much investing
I worked at Merrill Lynch as an intern for less than a year
Pros – Excellent Internship. I did not file papers or do administrative work as many interns describe. I learned a great deal while working their and learned what area in the finance industry I wanted to start a career in.
Cons – As is any good job, the work is hard and it can be difficult to balance school and the internship.
Advice to Senior Management – Keep hiring interns and giving this opportunity to college students!
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
I worked at Merrill Lynch full-time for more than 5 years
Pros – compensation above and beyond and outstanding work culture
Cons – It got shut down and cast me into chaos
Advice to Senior Management – rehire me and I will perform like a champion
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
I worked at Merrill Lynch full-time for more than a year
Pros – The people I was surrounded with were incredibly work oriented and enjoyable to be around. The company places great emphasis on training its employees.
Cons – Certainly not the easiest career path to choose, but very rewarding. You push yourself to work harder to keep up with everybody else around you.
Advice to Senior Management – Keep up the good work! Make sure to continue training employees for career advancement opportunities.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
I worked at Merrill Lynch as an intern for less than a year
Pros – Lots of freedom if you know what you're doing and where you want to be. Wealth management is all about managing your own book
Cons – Can be very little structure if you're not sure what you're looking for and want more guidance or ideas of how to move forward. Easy to get lost.
Advice to Senior Management – Plan for new hires and understand what you will want them to do. Communicate these goals to them early on
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
I worked at Merrill Lynch full-time for more than a year
Pros – Excellent investment company offering broad range of investment services. The training program at Merrill Lynch is excellent for new advisors studying for their licensing to become a broker. Merrill offers investment products as good or better than anyone in the financial services industry.
Cons – The investment market is very challenging and it takes quite some time build a large book of business cacapable of generating substantial income.
Advice to Senior Management – I would suggest additional support for new advisors in setting up speaker programs for potential clients. It is a great tool that is underutilized by new advisors.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
I have been working at Merrill Lynch
Pros – Great people, great company, great perks.
Cons – Massive oversight and compliance due to perceptions following 2008
I worked at Merrill Lynch as an intern for less than a year
Pros – - *Very* dependent on the wealth management adviser you work under and how much responsibility he/she is interested in giving you, as it is a very personal/non-standardized structure with much flexibility
- For me, this was a pro as I was given a solid amount of responsibility doing equity research for investment opportunities and learning the Bloomberg Terminal (very valuable as a rising sophomore), but YMMV
- Very flexible hours with only 20 hours per week/3 days per week, but again YMMV based on your manager
- Although minimum wage, still make money
Cons – - Still a not insignificant amount of grunt work, specifically filing and updating binders and Excel spreadsheets
- Only paid minimum wage
- Work was often sporadic and somewhat random, but YMMV as always
- Didn't get to sit in on very many client/firm meetings
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

I have been working at Merrill Lynch full-time for less than a year
Pros – Get paid to get your Series 7, 66 and State Life Insurance License. Maybe even knock out your CFP designation on their dime if your extremely lucky.
Cons – Convincing your pipeline of contacts, whom have at least $250,000 in cash or investments to fire themselves (Self Managers) or their current Financial Advisor, and give you the assets to "Manage". Question to consider, why is your financial "stuff" any better than what they have now? The stock market it is at an all time high, so there is really no motivation for them to take the risk and move, especially to you being a "Newbe" in the industry.
To have any credibility, you will also need to study and get your CFP designation (Chartered Financial Planner) designation to have any street-cred at all. Keep in mind the assets you are trying to steal away from other Advisors have their CFP, or least someone on their team has it. Anyone that has any sense and does his research online, will advise them before they blindly give their hard earned money to a stranger, make sure at this new "Advisor" has a minimum of a CFP, CFA, or CPA designation. FYI, the CFP takes at least a year of intense studying, plus $2500-6,000 in tuition fees. You better be very good at math and utilizing a financial calculator, an even with that, that test has a 55% pass rate...In this extremely competitive and heavily scrutinized industry, the more boxes you have checked in your favor, the greater chance someone will give you the time of day. This is on top of studying and passing your Series 7 and Series 66 Securities exams. Those have a 40 and 60% failure rate. ;)
Now lets talk about income and assets. In order not to starve and get depressed and quit or get fired like 99% do, you will need at least $10,000,000 in assets under management within the first year. Do you have rich relations or friends? If you can cobble together $10m of assets and you charge your clients 1-1.50% fee to manage your "Stuff", you will make only $50-60k year income, since the firm takes its 50%-55% off the top ;) Dont get suckered into selling Annuities to people, the firms take too big a bite out of your commissions, plus do you really want to push products?Annuity sales are an unsustainable income strategy in this business.
The reason these firms bring on new recruits, is because it is effective marketing dollars spent to acquire new accounts, assets, and firm revenue. Firms simply divvy out your clients to their existing Advisors in the corner offices. Basically , you flame out of the business and they recycle your clients. Keep in mind you just convinced these poor folks to hire you. They have to deal with all the hassles associated with leaving their existing Broker and Custodian and transferring those assets to your firm. Now you quit this frustrating Financial Advisor position like most do. These clients are more than likely not going to move their assets again that quickly. They might as well give the new acquiring Advisor at your recently departed firm, a chance...This happens at every Wallstreet Firm, RIA, Bank, etc.
What they don't tell you, and what you will find out if you decide to take this position, is the successful Advisors are the following:
1. They are related somehow to the successful Advisor and partner with them.
3. They bought out another Advisor's book of business.
4. They are a CPA and brought their clients to the firm.
5. They are retired professional sporting figure.
6. Existing Advisors pool their assets and become a team
7. Exisitng Advisor took a "Waffle" from another Wall Street firm. The new firm paid them hundreds of thousands to bring their existing book of clients to the firm for new company revenue.
8. They took over their parent's book of business when they retired.
9. Plus a few others..
Does any of this make sense? Is any of this you????
I wish you good luck and fortune.
Advice to Senior Management – Stay the course
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
I worked at Merrill Lynch full-time for more than a year
Pros – Outside of the free lunches from mutual fund reps there were none
Cons – No training given and basically thrown to the wolves to build your book of business without any direction
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Useful review.
I've been trying for some time to find out if you can use it with the zips open and the cover strapped shut - I often like to use such a bag for shopping too when i'm cycling - are the sides of the compartments protect from anything falling out? And do they open much?

Is there a good video somewhere I can send to my family members that will help them understand some of the gluten free basics? Holiday family dinner coming up and need to help them learn about this.

Undiagnosed Celiac Disease ~ 43 years
3/26/09 gluten-free - dignosed celiac - blood 3/3/09, biopsy 3/26/09, double DQ2 / single DQ8 positive
10/27/09 diagnosed fibromyalgia - supplemented with amino acids - improvement followed by substantial deterioration
maybe one good hour per day for ~17 months
8/10/11 - Elimination Diet for Autoimmune Disease - incredible improvement along with clear reactions to most high lectin foods
only remaining symptom - severe heat intolerance / reaction to heat, humidity and exercise
Tomato, Pepper, Potato, Peanut, Soy, Bean, Pea, Citrus, Pineapple, Avocado, Shellfish, Dairy, Grain, Nut and Seed FREE
3/1/12 - Horrible flare -- same ol' symptoms but worse ~ 7/1/12 - Endo: Active Celiac 3+ years - as gluten-free as humanly possible.
11/15/12 - Improving once again - Almonds back - Eggs gone
12/1/12 - Histamine containing and inducing foods FREE -- probable cause of my heat/exercise "allergy"...
...this was one of my earliest symptoms as a child -- the enzyme (DAO) needed to regulate histamine is created in the small intestine.

Un service complet Country Inn au coeur d'un domaine de montagne 3200 acres. Les activités extérieures abondent avec des miles de la truite de rivière et la pêche au bar, piscine, nombreux sentiers de randonnée, vélo de montagne, des vues magnifiques et une faune abondante. Le pavillon principal comporte l'art de la faune et des meubles localement fabriqués à la main. Trois "dans les rondes" chambres de silo et quatre chalets taillées à la main avec des cheminées en pierre sont parfaits pour une escapade romantique. Les soirées sont mis en valeur par une cuisine de style américain contemporain servi dans l'historique Lewis Gristmill. Un pays vraiment de se reposer sous un ciel étoilé.

At first, The rate seems a little high, but after noting that you receive 2 gourmet meals a day, it is a bargain. And gourmet they are! The grounds are lovely and John and Caryl were both very helpful in locating 'something to do'. Nearby Warm Springs and Hiking trails are well done. I look forward to returning again soon.

From the moment we entered the gates to Fort Lewis Lodge you felt you were being transported into absolute tranquility. Every detail about the Lodge and about the Innkeepers - John and Carly, exceeded expectations. Our accomodations in the John Lewis Cabin were superb, decor was exceptional, bed and bedding very comfortable, and the setting was so peaceful and tranquil. Both dinner and breakfast were exceptional, with plenty of food, good variety, and awesome almond raspberry muffins for breakfast. We wished we had a longer time to stay there, but our one night left us refreshed and energized. We would highly recommend Fort Lewis Lodge as a place to visit, and know we will definitely return.

Just got back from a two day stay at this fantastic B&B. What a fun place to celebrate a special event in your life or just spend time with family, friends or a great "girls" outing. I traveled as a single women and met so many nice people. I felt very welcome by everyone. After two days, we were exchanges numbers in order to meet again. The food was prepared by the owners and was beyond any of my expectations. Most everyone was a returning vacationer. You can enjoy the hot tub, floating down the river on your tube, fishing, canoing, starlit nights, sitting around the spectacular outside fireplace and it goes on and on!! Kids have a blast just enjoying old fashion family fun. I highly recommend the Lodge for all "kids" no matter what your age. Try it ---you will want to return.

Please stay at Fort Lewis, enjoy the natural beauty, hospitality and delicious meals, life is too short to miss this great gem. Carol and John are naturally attuned to assist you in enjoying a wonderful vacation - take the kids, escape just the two of you or plan a reunion, all is possible in this lush and natural seting. Anita

We have been coming back to Fort Lewis for about 10 years and have found them to be the best place in Virginia. They always have something new that keeps you wanting more. This year they built an outside pavilion with a fireplace that makes you want to just come in and relax and enjoy the company of others. John and Carol are the best Innkeepers anywhere. The food just makes you want to come again and again. Not another place like it anywhere. I notice they have a five star rating and I would give them a 5 1/2 to put them over the top.

Logan at Thanksgiving 2013 |
I am so excited to see my little guy Logan growing up so quickly. He loves to laugh and smile. I can't get enough of this face, when the corners of his mouth turn up and his eyes get this twinkle inside, it's magical. He has even turned into a champion sleeper giving Mommy 6-8 hours stretches of sleep. I couldn't ask for a better baby! I am one lucky girl. Thanksgiving was easy for this guy. He ate, enjoyed the new scenery and napped. He woke up again while Rob and I were just finishing our meals and he couldn't be more punctual. Everyone loved his fox overalls because of the recent "What does the fox say" phenomenon. If you don't have any clue what I am talking about click on the phrase, it's pretty silly, pointless and yet I watched the entire three minutes and forty five seconds, it has more than 300 million views.
Preston at Thanksgiving 2013 |
Preston greets me everyday when I return from work with a weighted story of his on-goings that day. Whether it be Daddy hammered something into the wall or I heard the Ice Cream Truck, it's coming! I love, love, LOVE how he just spouts off his tale and wants to tell me everything. Best part of my day. Preston actually didn't eat any Thanksgiving food. He focused on the toys, some similar to the ones he had. Vicki, our host, had set up a cute table for them to have dinner on and do a fun painting activity. Preston wasn't having anything to do with either of them. He put the toys he had on the table and wanted to take off his plate of food. When she pulled out the paint for the activity he said "No paint" and bee-lined it out of the room. He did, however; gather up all Scott's tools and started organizing them. Can someone say Daddy's Boy? Classic! After 5 hours he was ready to go home, he did squeeze in two cookies before we left, of course.

Coumadin sodium and bishydroxycoumarin were used in a study of the effects of anticoagulant therapy on 200 patients, most of them with acute myocardial infarction or severe coronary insufficiency. Coumadin sodium was given orally to 164 of these patients, the prothrombin times being determined daily. Individual dosages were adjusted until the daily dose (usually 5 to 7.5 mg.) needed to maintain the prothrombin level between 15 % and 30% was found. Bishydroxycoumarin was given to 19 patients and dosages were similarly adjusted until the maintenance dose (between 20 and 100 mg. daily) was found. An additional group of 17 patients who at first received bishydroxycoumarin were shifted to therapy with coumadin sodium. Coumadin sodium was found to be far superior to bishydroxycoumarin. Coumadin sodium had the advantage of greater promptness of effect; it produced the desired prothrombin levels within 48 hours in 87% of the cases. Patients receiving it in maintenance doses were more likely to stay within the desired range of prothrombin levels. The frequency of side-effects (mainly hemorrhagic) was slightly though not significantly lower in the patients treated with coumadin sodium. Nine patients who exhibited bleeding phenomena promptly responded to withdrawal of the coumadin sodium or treatment with preparations of vitamin K.

Well folks, it's about time I created my own little sketchbook here at ConceptArt. So... ehrm.. here it is!
Edit: Misunderstood sketchbook rules, did a bit of fumbling around, found out I had done everything right, left the thread as it were :-)
I'll start off with a little project I'm working on nowadays. It began as a sketch on paper, namely this one:
I decided I liked the creature so well I wanted to try giving it more form by painting it digitally. As I said I'm still working on it, so I'll post images as I go along.
I started by importing into my paint prog and laying down the "outline":
Sadly, I don't have time (at the time being) to work continuously for hours on end, I'm limited to approx. half an hour a day or so of painting, resulting in bad continuity, bad focus and concentration, and little progress. Anyway, this is as far as I've got now:
I decided to make the creature's limbs a bit more "believable" than the sketch suggests. Keeping the original limbs would probably make the creature more "comic", but I don't think that's what I'm after - anyway I can probably express some sort of comedy when I get as far as the face of the creature.
Keep watching this space, more coming up!

The boy with a Dolphin Tale: Amazing moment British eight-year-old who lost legs to meningitis used prosthetics to swim alongside dolphin from hit film with artificial flipper
- Cieran Kelso, 8, lost both legs below the knee after he developed meningitis as a baby
- He wanted to swim with his friends but struggled to balance in the water
- His family raised the money for special prosthetics fitted with flippers
- He recently swam with Winter, the tail-less dolphin in Florida
- Cieran is Winter's biggest fan after seeing him in the movie 'Dolphin Tale'
By Daily Mail Reporter and Associated Press Reporter
An eight-year-old double amputee who learned to swim with prosthetic flippers has taken to the pool with the tail-less dolphin that inspired him.
Cieran Kelso flew to Florida from England for the rare opportunity to swim with Winter, a dolphin at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium and star of the movie 'Dolphin Tale', that uses a prosthetic tail.
It was something the water baby could relate with. After losing both his legs to meningitis when he was just one, Cieran also uses custom-made prosthetic flippers to swim.
Inspirational: Amputee Cieran Kelso, 8, this month fulfilled his long-held dream of swimming with Winter the tail-less dolphin at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, Florida. Cieran was obsessed with Winter after seeing her in the movie 'Dolphin Tale'
Beautiful: Before they swam together earlier this month, double amputee Cieran Kelso, 8, was inspired by Winter the tail-less dolphin who learned to swim with a prosthetic tail
'His first words when he saw the film was, 'Winter's disabled just like me,' said Cieran's father, Gary Kelso.
'There are some pretty raw feelings that go into seeing Cieran swim with the dolphin.'
family, from Northwich, in Cheshire, kept the trip a secret from the boy until August 16th when they
were on the flight to Florida.
The flight attendants announced the trip was a surprise visit to Winter's home, organised by local tourism officials at Visit St Pete/Clearwater.
Cieran's dream had come true.
the day of his swim, trainer Cammie Zodrow urged Cieran to tap Winter,
the signal to raise her tail.
'You guys are best friends now,' Zodrow told Cieran, whose smile grew wider.
He then held onto Winter's fin and swam beside her, swimming in circles and backward for several laps.
For more than an hour, Winter and Cieran - at first alone with the trainer, then joined by his five-year-old sister, Layla-Eve, and Winter's 'sister' Hope - swam in the tank.
Cieran's stepmother, Gemma Kelso, 29, told MailOnline: 'I think he was in shock when he found out he could swim with her.
'He thought he would only be able to meet her - he was just the second visitor to be allowed to swim with her as well.
Cieran held onto Winter's fin and swam beside her, swimming in circles for more than an hour. His sister, Layla-Eva, five, also swam with Winter
Cieran's stepmother Gemma Kelso, 29, told MailOnline: 'I think he was in shock when he found out he could swim with her. It was so overwhelming.' Cieran is pictured feeding Winter
'It was so overwhelming. He had dreamed of it for so long.'
She added: 'On the film he saw himself in the dolphin. He can swim like her.
'He felt like he was like Winter. He had never seen an injured animal like that before.
'He said that she was his friend, he identified with her.
Winter lost her tail in a an accident involving a crab trap. She was fitted with a prosthetic by staff at Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Cieran felt he could associate with her because her tail is like his prosthetic flippers
Cieran's stepmother said that he views Winter as a friend and that it is now his ambition to go back to Florida to work with her
'There is a massive bond. You could see the way they were in the water together - they were very calm together.
we got back he is calmer and more content in himself. His dream job is
now to go back and look after Winter - he no longer wants to be a train
Cieran said he was Winter's biggest fan and he could have swum with the dolphin 'for a million hours'.
Dream come true: Cieran Kelso sits with Winter the tail-less dolphin (left) and Hope in the dolphin's tank at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium after swimming with Winter
A family affair: Cieran Kelso, 8, with his father Gary, stepmother Gemma, his siblings and Winter the dolphin at Clearwater Marine Aquarium, in Clearwater, Florida
'It was greater than great,' he said after his swim.
Planning for the visit took about a year, during which Cieran's parents struggled to keep the process a secret.
Cieran was just hours from death after he was struck down with meningitis as a baby.
Despite pulling through he had to have both legs amputated below the knee and also lost the tips of most of his fingers.
Tragic: Cieran Kelso's legs were amputated and he lost his fingertips after contracting meningococcal septicaemia when he was one. Before his parents bought him a new pair of limbs, he was given prosthetics on the NHS but they didn't fit properly
He was later fitted with false legs and given a wheelchair to help him get around but he desperately wanted to swim with his friends.
That's when his father Gary and stepmother Gemma spent months fundraising on his behalf.
They raised enough money to pay for a custom-made pair of legs that could be used in water.
Paul Leishman at the Leeds branch of The London Prosthetics Clinic also made him a pair of flippers that attach to the ends of the feet.
Making a splash: Cieran Kelso struggled to balance in the water before he was fitted with new limbs. His step-mum Gemma and dad Gary raised $18,600 to buy him legs that fit and can be worn all day
Waterbaby: Cieran is now speedy in the swimming pool thanks to his new prosthetic legs and custom-made flippers
'Cieran loves swimming and has been having swimming lessons for just over a year but he couldn't propel himself through the water or stay afloat as easily as everyone else,' Gemma said.
'As soon as Cieran first wore the flippers it was incredible the speed he could travel through the water, his instructor even had to swim with him to keep up.
'We want Cieran to see that even though his legs were taken away by his meningitis he can still follow his dreams and be like his friends, just sometimes we have to make slight adaptations to aid him along the way.'

Super Rugby
When the Chiefs opened the 2012 Super Rugby season with a 23-19 loss to the Highlanders at Waikato Stadium it looked like normal service had been resumed.
Despite a complete cleanout of the coaching staff and half the playing personnel changed the home team's much vaunted Rolls Royce backline looked again like it had been coupled with a Morris Minor forward pack and it was going to be another hard slog for a mid-table finish.
Instead the Chiefs coaches, under the shrewd leadership of Dave Rennie, and players alike took on board the lessons learnt from the Highlanders' physicality at the breakdown and immediately took their intensity levels up several notches for the rest of the five-month competition and showed they really did have a pack to take on the best.
The result - the Chiefs' first title in 17 years of the professional competition and only their second visit to a final where they beat a travel-weary Sharks outfit from South Africa 37-6 at Waikato Stadium at the beginning of August.
There was little doubt the Chiefs had the strongest coaching group in the comp with Rennie, Wayne Smith, Tom Coventry and Andrew Strawbridge proving a standout combination.
They set out with a simple plan to recruit hard-working players, particularly in their forward pack, and produce a game style that saw much more emphasis on set-piece strength and taking the ball forward close in before releasing the backs to go wide.
But the jewel in the recruitment crown was Sonny Bill Williams who proved a standout contributor to the game plan at second five-eighth in getting the Chiefs over the advantage line and offloading after drawing defenders, while his combination with first-five Aaron Cruden was pivotal behind a solid pack that was a mixture of youth and experience.
The loss through injury of centre Richard Kahui to another shoulder injury midway through the season would have derailed past Chiefs campaigns but not this one.
Having clinched the New Zealand Conference and a home semifinal, the Chiefs' faltered a little towards the end of the round-robin, losing their last two games to fellow Kiwi sides the Crusaders and Hurricanes and finishing second overall behind the Cape Town-based South African conference winners, the Stormers.
But when the sixth qualifying wild card Sharks knocked off defending champions and Australian conference winners, the Reds, in the qualifying finals and then travelled back to South Africa to upset the Stormers the Chiefs were handed a home final and a travel-free playoffs schedule.
Perenial playoff qualifiers the Crusaders were New Zealand's next best team in finishing fourth overall and hosting the Bulls in a home qualifying final in Christchurch that they won impressively 28-13.
But they were unable to repeat their round-robin away victory over the Chiefs in the semifinals with the home side finding their earlier form to win 20-17 and earn the historic home final.
A good year for: Sonny Bill Williams and Liam Messam at the Chiefs, while Aaron Smith put his hand up for the All Blacks halfback berth with his high-speed, slick passing performances for the Highlanders who again tailed off after a strong start to the season.
A bad year for: The Blues under Pat Lam, who finished last in the New Zealand conference and 12th overall, prompting Lam's sacking as coach.
Crystal ball gazing: The Chiefs without Sonny Bill and the Crusaders without Richie McCaw will have a tough haul to repeat their top-four efforts but will again be influential players, while plenty of attention will be on how a new-look Blues outfit performs under the twin knights - Sir John Kirwan and Sir Graham Henry.

The planned Halloween (13) debut of Oscar winner JAMIE FOXX's new horror mini-series has reportedly been postponed because of scheduling issues.
The Ray star stepped behind the camera to write, direct and executive produce a five-episode series, which was due to air during the Syfy network's 31 Days of Halloween marathon in October (13).
However, editors at industry website Deadline.com report the launch of the show has been pushed back due to "scheduling reasons".
Announcing the venture, Foxx revealed, "This is a project that I've wanted to do for a long time and I'm so happy to see it come to life. Get ready to lose it when some special friends and I bring the scares this October, and who knows... maybe I'll make a guest appearance or two along the way!"

text: The aim of Buddhist practice is to be rid of the delusion of ego and thus free oneself from the fetters of this mundane world. One who is successful in doing so is said to have overcome the round of rebirths and to have achieved enlightenment. This is the final goal in most Buddhist traditions, though in some cases (particularly though not exclusively in some Pure Land schools in China and Japan) the attainment of an ultimate paradise or a heavenly abode is not clearly distinguished from the attainment of release. The living process is again likened to a fire. Its remedy is the extinction of the fire of illusion, passions, and cravings. The Buddha, the Enlightened One, is one who is no longer kindled or inflamed. Many poetic terms are used to describe the state of the enlightened human being—the harbour of refuge, the cool cave, the place of bliss, the farther shore. The term that has become famous in the West is nirvana, translated as passing away or dying out—that is, the dying out in the heart of the fierce fires of lust, anger, and delusion. But nirvana is not extinction, and indeed the ... (200 of 42,944 words)Nirvana

According to the Zetas, Nancy writes, the comet is part of a conspiracy to deflect the world's attention from the ''true messenger of death,'' the 12th Planet, which is supposedly set to sweep by Earth and knock it for a loop.
Her Web site, called ZetaTalk, (http://126.96.36.199/ZetaTalk/) has become one of the weirder destinations on the World Wide Web.
''The opinions expressed are solely those of the Zeta Reticulans,'' she writes, ''and are not necessarily the opinions of their emissary, Nancy, or any other party.''
Web sites run by Christian fundamentalists, like the Bible Prophecy Corner (http://www.themall.net/ mjageeee/), debate whether the comet, coming so close to the millennium, is a biblical sign of the approaching End Times, when earth will be burned clean and readied for the Second Coming of Christ.
A site called the Angelic Conspiracy & End Times Deception (http:// www.mt.net/watcher/), which offers a strange mix of New Age mysticism and biblical prophecy, says Hale-Bopp will herald a war in Israel (as predicted in the Book of Ezekiel) and worldwide cataclysm. Links are also drawn between the comet and mysterious pyramids supposedly found on Mars.

Anyone know where I can find a good selection of Brazilian groceries? Our new nanny is from Brazil and would like to find some "food from home".
Actually, the Portuguese grocery stores on Bloor in Ossington both carry a selection of items from the old colony.
Best bet would be Kensington Market, there are a few Latin American/South American grocery stores there that may carry what she's looking for.

Monday, November 04, 2013
BEFORE we rush to condemn we should all try and remember the numerous times we have had lapses in judgement in our younger days. He or she that is without fault please indicate now.
The overarching tendency in our society is to be characterised by short-term memory. We oftentimes forget that each generation of Jamaicans, like in any other society, tries as much as possible to push the envelope regarding decency and acceptable behaviour.
Having viewed the footage from the two-year-old Maggotty High School "bashment" video, I did not react with the typical jaw-dropping, knee jerking, shock and awe response as was the usual reaction from a significant portion of the Jamaican society. We live in an over-sexualised society, in which we are constantly being bombarded by sexual images and nuances by a media more concerned about their profit line than what is broadcast. One only has to view local television on a Saturday afternoon to easily see similarities in the music videos being shown there and the Maggotty video. Then again, hypocrisy and classism are two other characteristics of the society in which we live and as such I do not expect my instruction to change people's long-standing biases.
The ever-evolving changes in the technology of this century have afforded us the luxury to witness real-time events regardless of where we are on the planet. We are able to videotape events, share files and email, as well as download and upload images at the click of a mouse. This is probably where youthful exuberance does have
its disadvantages.
The fact is we all have failed in our collective responsibilities in grooming and raising the next generation of Jamaicans. To begin with, most of our homes are dysfunctional and our parents lack positive parenting skills. For the most part, our youngsters are aware of themselves in a sexual and sensuous manner mainly because of the society we have shaped for them. Too many of your youngsters have no sense of self as it relates to decency and discipline. The 'spiritual self' of which many of us, as older Jamaicans, are aware and find very relevant and important is fast fading, and to a large extent has become almost non-existent for a significant number of younger Jamaicans.
We share a history in which food and dance are used to celebrate achievements and used as markers for significant milestones. Unfortunately, unlike other cultures the Jamaican society does not identify with a rite of passage, which is a necessary cultural form and ceremony which allows for the transition between childhood to adulthood. Such ceremonies serve as important markers in a person's life, such as birth, puberty, marriage, childbirth, and death. Rites of passage usually involve ritual activities and teachings designed to strip individuals of their original roles and prepare them for new roles. The traditional American wedding ceremony is such a rite of passage. In many so-called primitive societies, some of the most complex rites of passage occur at puberty, when boys and girls are initiated into the adult world. In our context, high school graduations are probably the nearest event we have and celebrate as a sort of quasi rite of passage. So how do youngsters know when they are permitted adult behaviour?
What if the genre of music was different? What if the video was done to soca/calypso music; the choice of music for more affluent Jamaicans? What if the school involved was an "uptown" one? Smell the hypocrisy?
Each year we set aside the Sunday after Easter to parade and gyrate in costumes half-naked on the streets of Kingston or in Mas Camps in the name of carnival, yet when our students follow the lead we have set there is a public outcry.
Were the boys treated in a different manner than the girls for their involvement? In most of the discourse to date there has been a subtle tap of the wrist for the boys' behaviour in the video. What message is being sent, particularly, what message are we sending to our youngsters.
A number of individuals have been clamouring for the school to suspend or even expel the student, who apparently is the only one still attending school, for her involvement in the video in her uniform. I firmly believe the school involved went with the best option, given the circumstances including the fact that the video was done two years ago, of not suspending the student. One can only imagine the immense pressure she faces daily from her community, school and family and the negative impact this is having on her. This provides an ideal opportunity for State agencies involved in child care and protection to step in and offer some assistance. Yes, counselling should be provided, not only to the student involved, but I dare say the entire school population should be counselled since it appears that the event was not a singular instance.
We need to redouble our efforts as adults in this society and provide the necessary leadership and example that we wish to see our youngsters emulate, instead of sitting on the proverbial fence. Each one of us can and should mentor a child in an effort to bringing about the changes we wish to see in our society.

Ditka's Review
NFL Hall-of-Famer Mike Ditka was one of only two coaches to take the Bears to the Super Bowl. Sure, it was back in 1985, but Bears fans have long memories, and they still love "Da Coach" as well as his clubby, sports-themed restaurant where local performer John Vincent does dead-on impressions of Frank Sinatra, Tuesday through Saturday. The dark-wood interior and sports memorabilia are predictable, but the menu clearly aims to please a large and diverse audience. Café staples (salads, fish) and bar food (burgers, pot roast) join steak-house fare (steaks, chops) and a few unexpected indulgences (sustainably sourced seafood dishes).

Dot-Marie Jones Previews 'Exes' Turn, Casts Kristen Johnson, Betty White on 'Glee'
The actress guest stars on the comedy as a lesbian who hits on the former "3rd Rock From the Sun" star and creates roles on the Fox comedy for the TV Land duo.
Glee's Dot-Marie Jones has come a long way from McKinley High.
The actress best known for playing the sweet and sensitive Coach Shannon Beiste on Fox's musical dramedy will pop in to play a character she describes as the polar opposite of her alter-ego on TV Land's The Exes.
Jones cameos in Wednesday's episode as a lesbian who takes a particular liking to Kristen Johnson's Holly after she stumbles into a gay bar on the series about three lovelorn guys (Donald Faison, Wayne Knight, David Alan Basche) and their divorce lawyer.
STORY: Emmys 2012: Second Nomination is Bittersweet for 'Glee's' Dot-Marie Jones
Jones, a former arm wrestling champion, says filming the scene was a blast as it allowed the 6-foot-2 actress to go toe-to-toe with Johnson, who at 6 feet tall also made for a prime partner.
"It's a silly scene and while I wasn't there for the live audience taping, Kristen said everybody loved it," Jones tells The Hollywood Reporter, noting that she tried to "change up" every scene opposite the former 3rd Rock From the Sun star.
"Every time I came up to her, I'd try to make her laugh and she loved it, it was a win-win situation," she says. "I'd go up to ask her to dance and do silly things to try and get her to break character. I never made her break, but I certainly tried to."
Jones' character, she says, is totally out whereas Coach Beiste is not as outgoing. "This character is not shy," Jones previews.
STORY: Zach Braff Heads to 'The Exes' for 'Scrubs' Reunion With Donald Faison
While she didn't challenge Johnson to an arm-wrestling match, she threw down the gauntlet and noted it wouldn't be much of a battle. "You know I'd take her!" she exclaimed, adding that Johnson is a "tall girl but she's little; she's got a big personality."
As for Glee, the Emmy nominee confirms that she'll return in the fifth episode of the upcoming fourth season and hopes she can bring her new TV Land pal along for the ride.
"It'd be great if Kristen came in and played my sister Denise, who I mentioned last season," Jones says, referring to her on-screen sister whose house she fled to after a domestic incident with husband Cooter.
PHOTOS: 'Glee' Season 3 in Pictures
As for other TV Land stars that Jones could envision on Glee, Jones would love to see a certain someone from Hot in Cleveland pop up as Beiste family member.
"I met Betty White at the Emmys last year and that was a dream. She's always so cute, if she played my mom on Glee that would be amazing!" Jones says with a laugh. Let's make her mean and tough and Shannon is really afraid of her. I think she'd go for it!"
The Exes airs Wednesdays at 10:30 p.m. on TV Land.

Lu Xiu Ancient Wild Wuyi Rock
Oolong Tea by Dragon Tea House
Luxiu is a very rare Wuyi oolong as it is complete wild, only a few pounds are produced each spring. Different from regular Wuyi yancha which is tightly curled, dried leaf is a dark, saddle brown color, Luxiu is slightly curled, with quite large rubust leaves. After rinsing the leaves, an astoundingly complex fragrance is released. The tea is rosted moderately, slightly smoky, woody and with a hint of black coffee. Multiple infusions will keep an equally rich and floral, with a long sweet aftertaste. Unusual and definitely worth trying out.
This is a very powerful oolong tea, you will easily get drunk with it. Tea drunk is similar to an alcohol, most people consider it as a very pleasing experience, after having a few cups, you might get a heady feeling, like walking on clouds. Eating food,candy or fruit may reduce it. Tea connoisseur does not taste tea by his tougue and smell it by nose only, but feel tea by his body and soul. You might feel hot soup running up and down your body, let Lu Xiu bring your tea drinking experience to a new height.These are spring leaves plucked from a rare ancient tree in Wuyi mountain, a remarkable and enjoyable oolong you can find in Dragon Tea House only!

The Issue: "Guess Who'Äôs Coming for Dinner?"
Some of us remember the 1967 American film starring Sidney Poitier, Guess Who's Coming for Dinner.
Well, other than just for the purpose of an interesting title for this column and to get you into a dining-out mindframe, nothing in this movie really relates directly to the interesting dining out practices that CBC recently exposed to the public, of Allaudin Merali, a senior executive at Alberta Health Services.
For a better insight of what CBC has discovered, or perhaps better said, uncovered, do read OEP's front page story if you have not yet.
A summary sketch is that Merali , according to the reporting of CBC, has from 2005 – 2008, 'Äúspent tens of thousands of dollars on lavish meals at high end restaurants and bottles of wine,'Äù in addition to apparently having a phone installed in his Mercedes Benz.
Perhaps this explains at least in part, where some of our healthcare tax dollars have been spent. For me at least, it certainly begs the question as to if there are not more lavish spending executives in Alberta Health Services, other than just Allaudin Merali?
But here we go again: the apparently extreme spending of an executive whose salary and expenses are paid by our tax dollars. If the expense sheets are accurate (I am going to assume they are) to me Merali's spending seems to be staunch, coupled by brave arrogance when identifying some of his extravagant dinners guests only as "Dinner Meetings."
I guess as taxpayers, we are left at least for now, to "guess who was going for dinner " with Merali. Maybe we can reflect on this kind of lavish spending of our healthcare tax dollars the next time we have to wait for hours at emergency, or have to wait for that much needed surgery.
Also, maybe a good thought to weigh at the same time is this one: If Merali had this lucrative, expense freedom, and it seemingly was authorized spending at the time, would it not be just as enlightening for the public to have convenient knowledge of the expenses of other executives at Alberta Health? And should the spending of our healthcare tax dollars, particularly when it consists of of expenses, not be up for public scrutiny and evaluation?
