The Ultimate Professional Grade Tool
Packed with innovative features and powered by a supercharged Vortec 6000 V8, the GMC Sierra Pro Plus represents the next step in professional grade trucks for contractors, builders and other tradesmen. With its ingenious solutions such as quarter side storage and a removable split rear seat that can be replaced by portable multi-bin organizers, this version of the Sierra Heavy Duty 4WD Extended Cab full-size pickup is equally adept as a heavy hauler or as a portable work station.
The Sierra Pro Plus expands on ideas introduced on the GMC Sierra Professional, first showcased at the 1999 Special Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show and later displayed at other trade shows. Based on the strong positive reaction garnered at these shows, GMC has decided to begin production of the Sierra Professional, starting this December.
"The Sierra Pro Plus is a natural outgrowth of GMCs strong heritage in the vocational market," said Lorraine Babiar, Sierras assistant brand manger, product. "The Pro Plus adds another dimension of totally unexpected work capability to the GMC Sierra, providing both an office environment as well as numerous ways to carry and organize the professional tools needed on the job."
Magna Steyr partnered with GMC to design, develop, assemble and bring to market the GMC Sierra Professional, and again worked with GMC to produce the Pro Plus show vehicle.
Like the Sierra Professional, the Pro Plus features both a floor console and a rear under-seat storage box, both lockable. Extending from the instrument panel to the back of the front seats, the Magna floor console includes a Palm Pilot and cell phone storage station with charging outlets, along with temperature-controlled cupholder and removable cooler. The center console can be easily converted to provide hanging file folder storage, and convenient nets on the underside of the lid and on the backside of the console offer additional storage. The reconfigurable under-seat storage box offers over two cubic feet of space for larger tools such as rotary hammers, saws and even a 4-foot level.
The Sierra Pro Plus adds even more cargo management capability, including a 60-40 split bench rear seat, with the 40-percent portion being removable. In place of the removable portion, portable multi-bin organizers serve as a toolbox on wheels. A Panasonic Toughbook laptop computer is integrated into the rear door panel on the drivers side, while a tool kit organizer has been built into the passenger side rear door panel. A hook system on back of the front seats holds a storage tube for keeping blueprints.
For enhanced comfort, the Sierra Pro Plus is outfitted with driver and passenger Grammer Air Ride seats, which even include a massage lumbar system for the drive home after a hard day on the job. For convenience, GM Accessories contributes a Dura power rear sliding window concept as well as a currently available sunshade CD holder which slides over the sunvisor and stores 12 CDs within easy reach. Brushed aluminum gauge bezels and steering wheel accents add to the professional ambiance of the interior.
Several exterior features have been designed to help professionals organize the tools of their trade. Rear quarter panels open up to reveal a hollowed-out storage area with tool box, tool trays, tool kits, storage buckets, portable snake lights, blueprint clips and interchangeable bins designed for specific trades. A Magna Reconfigurable Tailgate Module doubles as either a ramp or a bed extender. A GM Accessories Bed-Rack carrying system has been enhanced on this vehicle with side mounts that hold ladders, wood, pipe or other construction materials. For trailering or attaching a rack, the Pro Plus is equipped with a Reese Dual Port System hitch.
The Sierra Pro Plus also delivers more than expected under the hood, with a Magnuson supercharged engine package from GM Performance Parts. The supercharger, currently under consideration for future production, boosts maximum horsepower of the Vortec 6000 V8 engine by 20 percent, to 328, and maximum torque by 23 percent, to 356 lb-ft. The vehicle is also equipped with a spill-proof, maintenance-free ACDelco Professional Platinum Battery, and a Directed Electronics VSL 4200 vehicle security system available from GM Accessories, with digital tilt and motion sensor concepts added to this vehicle. And to get the job done, the Sierra Pro Plus carries Porter-Cable Professional Power Tools, with a 6-inch Sawboss circular saw, Tiger saw, _-inch keyless-chuck hammer drill and flashlight.

Tech coalition calls on US to lead surveillance reform2013-12-08
REDMOND, Wash. — July 1, 2013 — Microsoft Corp. today announced the initial phase of its business-channel expansion plans for the Surface family of PCs, along with AppsForSurface — a new Surface application-development program for independent software vendors (ISVs).
As part of its measured and phased approach to the growth of the Surface business, Microsoft announced the Microsoft Devices Program, which allows customers to purchase Surface and commercial services through authorized resellers. The two-tier program establishes Ingram Micro Inc., SYNNEX Corp. and Tech Data Corp. as inaugural device-authorized distributors to sell Surface to a newly designated group of device-authorized commercial resellers. Today, these resellers include CDW, CompuCom Systems Inc., En Pointe Technologies, Insight Enterprises Inc., PC Connection Inc., PCM Inc., SHI International Corp., Softchoice, Softmart and Zones Inc. In addition to offering Microsoft's extended warranty and accidental damage, resellers bring a variety of value-added services to the Surface family such as asset tagging, custom imaging, kitting, onsite service and support, device recycling. and data protection. During the next few months, Microsoft will work to authorize commercial distributors and resellers in more countries.
AppsForSurface, a new ISV program that provides devices and funding for Surface-specific business applications, addresses the growing demand for Surface enterprise applications. Current program participants include Airstrip, Citrix, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and Sage.
In June, Microsoft announced a one-time offer for Surface RT starting at $199 for qualifying educational institutes running until the end of August in 26 countries, valid for all K–12 schools and universities purchasing direct from Microsoft. In the coming days, Microsoft will expand this offer into the commercial channel starting with Authorized Surface Resellers in the United States. Microsoft has a long tradition of delivering high-quality solutions for education, and this offer is intended to get Surface in the hands of even more educators and students.

The Role of the Black Church in Detroit's Development
Category: Praise Connect Written by Nicole Black
By Bertam Marks
Detroit will undoubtedly rebound some day from her current social and economic challenges. It will transition from this phase faster if we acknowledge that the comeback effort must be collective and more importantly, spiritual. The Bible is replete with examples of committed, spirit filled leaders engaging the community to accomplish a greater good. These leaders were able to convince the masses that being selfless was a noble and worthwhile pursuit. As a result, the wall around a vulnerable city was fortified, enemies of Israel were defeated, Solomon's Temple was erected and the good news of the gospel was spread throughout the world.
Today, right here in Detroit, we are confronted with similar epic challenges requiring our undivided attention. Thankfully, as we assess the condition of our city we cannot be slow to recognize that we have been presented with tremendous opportunity. As Detroit emerges from its current dire, but temporary, economic social and spiritual malaise, we must be sure to enlist the power of the African American Church to help us recover. Since the establishment of the Second Baptist Church in Detroit in the nineteenth century, the African American Church has remained a catalyst for ushering in positive social, economic, and spiritual change for Detroiters. There is no reason to abandon this formula. We have examined, studied, and written about the difficulty Detroit experienced in the past and currently to a near overwhelming degree. There are few who have an interest in the recovery of Detroit who do not have a basic understanding of the problems confronting the city. As in Biblical and historic periods of the past, the thousands of churches that occupy the modern landscape of Detroit can and should be responsible for tackling the myriad issues which impair our quality of life. In fact, many churches can take on the same issue at the same time.
For example, imagine Detroit with five hundred pulpits that are filled each Sunday morning with a messenger who proclaims that the ministry mission of their particular church is to eradicate illiteracy within a four square mile area of their church doors. By way of implementation they recruit educators, students, and retirees to tutor and feed students between the hours of 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. They finance the effort by pooling their resources and making a well planned presentation to leading charitable foundations. Imagine further that three hundred churches proclaim their mission to be the elimination of crime during school hours. They decide to organize citizen vehicle and foot patrols. Together they solicit their church members for individual donations to purchase neon jackets, yellow siren lights, flashlights and whistles. Now imagine that one hundred well meaning and enthusiastic churches carve out sections of Detroit to develop housing projects for low income and senior residents. The Churches form a mega-community development corporation and partner with private developers who are attracted to the exercise because of the tax credits which can be obtained. Sixty church based food pantries spring up anchored by food donations from Kroger, Wall Mart and Aramark Foods. Job training becomes the mantra of another two hundred churches. Along with the UAW and WC3 they solicit federal grants to fund their efforts. Forty five churches partner with DTE and the City of Detroit Water Department, The Heat and Warmth Fund and the United States Department of Energy to distribute energy subsidies and teach energy conservation. Next we see centers for the treatment of addiction occupying abandoned schools. The Partnership for a Drug Free America becomes the lead partner along with local hospitals, health insurance companies and federal health and human service agencies dedicated to tackling this issue.
The term "faith based" is an overused phrase in our modern vernacular. It is over used because the act of connecting faith based institutions to basic social and economic resource institutions does not happen nearly as often as it can and should. There are numerous institutional partners with resources who are looking for innovative ways to deliver service to those who need it the most. Our faith community here in Detroit must be prepared for a complete paradigm shift in the role of the church in the community. We need less rhetoric and emotional appeals to unseen forces waiting to come to our rescue. This style of message delivery must be replaced in Detroit. If not permanently then, at the very least occasionally, we need to preach and hear practical messages of how the church can help save the community. These messages but be supplemented with real world actions that serve the interests and needs of the community at large. It is a spiritual imperative that we demonstrate from our pulpits and through our actions how the words found in the scriptures have a real time application that can improve the quality of life of those who suffer.
There is simply no reason why the Church should not leverage its position as the oldest, most familiar, and most trusted institution in the African American community to improve the quality of life of her citizens. At this stage it is no longer optional for a Church to decide that it must prioritize the social and economic needs confronting the citizens in and around Detroit. It has escalated to the point of necessity.

Dawn Seekers Promotes Women's Worship in the Community
Category: Praise Connect Written by Nicole Black
"Seek the Lord while he may be found", "Isaiah 55:6", Pastor Solomon Kinloch Jr. and the Triumph Church has made great strides here in our city as well as being a world wide name that has become notable not just to people in the metro Detroit area, but across the country. Pastor Solomon Kinloch Jr. being the senior pastor of the Triumph Church for 14 years has built not only a great ministry, but a great empire which includes 10 worship services and 5 locations, being named as one of the fastest growing African-American churches in the country with more than 2,200 new members in 2011.
Birthed out of this ministry is one of the most exciting, impactful, and anointed quarterly worship service that was designed to encourage, uplift and strengthen women entitled, Dawn Seekers.
Dawn Seekers started with a few hundred women who were compelled to keep the bond between women and worship. Through this bond, Dawn Seekers has expanded into one of the largest women's worship service in the city of Detroit, starting at the Cass Technical High School with a couple of hundred women and has expanded to COBO Arena, downtown Detroit, drawing more than 5,000 participants.
Pastor Kinloch's dedicated soul stirring messages has captured and cultivated the attention of women who are broken, in despair, and on the verge of giving up or just simply needed to hear a word from the Lord.
Dawn Seekers purpose is being fulfilled as souls are being saved, the bond of women are strengthened, and the Good news is being spread abroad.
With great anticipation on May 12, 2012 at 6:00am at Cobo Arena, DawnSeekers will welcome Ce-Ce Winans as their special guest as the women of the city of Detroit join together in love with one purpose, to lift up the name of Jesus.

I bet if you took your family to a very expensive restaurant, and had bad service and the food suked, but the bill was really high, you probably wouldn't continue to go there would you? You'd probably say; "they better do a lot better than that if they want my business!"
Well............consider your organization that restaurant.

Some might not consider Chromebook as a proper laptop but for what it's worth, I believe that Chromebook will be around for quite some time as Google continue to gather partners for the cloud-based notebook. In fact, they have just received one more partner this week which is Dell who have just announced their first ever Chromebook.
As the name implies, the Dell Chromebook 11 is equipped with an 11.6-inch 1366×768 display and is powered by the Haswell-based 1.4GHz Intel Celeron 2955U processor which also features the Intel HD Graphics as its built-in GPU. Claimed to have up to 10 hours of battery life, the Dell Chromebook 11 also comes standard with a 720p front-facing webcam, two USB 3.0 ports and a HDMI port as well as connectivity support for Bluetooth 4.0 and 802.11abgn Wi-Fi.
With a 16GB solid state drive as its internal storage, Chromebook 11 will be made available in two different variant: one with 4GB RAM and another one with 2GB RAM. Expected to cost under USD 300 (RM 969), the 4GB variant of Dell Chromebook 11 will be released in US and UK in January 2014 while the 2GB version will follow suit sometime in the first quarter of 2014.
For now, Dell have yet to announce any release detail for the new Dell Chromebook 11 in our market. The chances of seeing it here in our market might be further affected by the fact that 1BestariNet which is one of the main driving force behind Chromebook adoption in Malaysia already has its "own" WiMAX-enabled Samsung Chromebook.
That being said, Chromebook in general still have its place in the market as a productivity and light-duty entertainment machine. So, let's see if Dell are willing to bring it over to Malaysia in 2014.
Like it or not, it looks like Facebook has went ahead to allow videos to play automatically in your News Feed. Like other video services such as Vine and even Instagram, videos will only autoplay when you scroll through them and voice will be muted, thankfully. The autoplay feature will only work for native videos that are uploaded to Facebook and when tapped on, will bring you to a full screen mode with voice.
At the time of writing, it looks like Facebook for iOS Version 6.8 brings autoplay video only to users in the U.S.. According to the description in iTunes (U.S., Malaysia and Australia for comparison sake), only the U.S. store has "Videos now play automatically in News Feed — tap for sound" written in the change log. Don't be too happy yet though, it has been widely rumored that Facebook will introduce video ads as early as next year and TechCrunch has even confirmed with Facebook that the new format is being rolled out internationally to most iOS and Android users with desktop version still in the works.
Worried about your data quota being sucked up dry by auto playing videos? Well, fret not, according to TechCrunch, there's an added settings that allows users select only to auto play when user is connected to Wi-Fi and not on cellular data. The settings should be available for both iOS and Android right now so activate it before you get a bill shock when the feature suddenly goes live for us.

After unleashing the new Transformer Book T100 (in two different wave, nevertheless) and Transformer Book Trio in our market, ASUS Malaysia have now announced that they have released yet another Windows 8-based Transformer Book in our market. This particular model is called the Transformer Book T300 and just like the T100, it is also a 2-in-1 device as the top part of T300 can be detached to be used as a tablet.
However, almost everything about the Transformer T300 is much more powerful or larger than the T100. For example, the T300 is powered by the 4th generation Intel Core i5 processor and is equipped with a 13.3-inch 1920×1080 IPS touch display. It is also comes with 4GB of DDR3 RAM and 128GB SSD. In terms of battery life, ASUS claimed that the T300's is able to last up to 8 hours via it's 6710mAh battery.
The new ASUS Transformer Book T300 will be made available in Malaysia starting from this week onwards with a price tag of RM 3399. The full specifications sheet is available after the jump but in case you need to know more, head on to the nearest ASUS Malaysia's dealer or visit my.asus.com.
Gamers world wide have been waiting patiently to see what Valve's SteamOS looks like; and that has now paid off. The Linux based operating system made solely for gaming will be available tomorrow.
Also shipping at the same time are the 300 prototype Steam Machines. Which will begin their journey to lucky users who signed up for the beta test. Unfortunately, Valve has been forced to limit the test to the US only. Apparently due to regulatory issues with shipping the machines overseas. Very bad news for anyone in the rest of the world who was hoping of getting their hands on what may be the next revolution in gaming.
SteamOS itself may not entirely be a completed product. The Steam announcement appears to indicate that a certain amount of experience with programming in Linux is necessary to actually enjoy the OS.

Good news for all of you who are using the free version of Spotify, as reported by the Wall Street Journal last week, Spotify has indeed been working on bringing its free music streaming to mobile devices and is now available on both Android and iOS platforms.
Spotify for Android and iOS was previously only available for Premium users paying RM15/month for an ad-free version. The new free service will come with ads and a slight twist – you can only shuffle play. This means that instead of playing that specific track you want, you can only hit the shuffle button in an album and listen to tracks randomly, hey, at least you get to specify the artist you want right? Shuffle play applies for any album and even your personalized playlist.
Other than that, everything else works pretty much the same as the free desktop version of Spotify, you can still create your favorite playlists, share and discover new music. Get Spotify on your Android or iOS device now.

While their catalogue have been available in the digital realms for quite some time via iTunes, Led Zeppelin have never embraced streaming music services. That is until now, as Spotify have announced that songs by the legendary rock gods are now available through the world famous music streaming service.
Apparently, the deal is exclusive to Spotify which is definitely a significant achievement for the company and should strengthen Spotify's foothold in the market even further. Starting from this week onwards, the company will be releasing two album per day on their platform starting with the band's self-titled debut album and its follow-up, the Led Zeppelin II.

When Google first announced Android Device Manager 3 months back, it was one of the best things that has happened to Android, users could remotely locate, ring, wipe out a device or even lock it but there was one thing missing, an app. Android Device Manager was only available on the web and while that may be convenient because you can access it from any device that has access to the internet, it was troublesome. Fortunately, Google has finally released an Android Device Manager app for Android devices, making it easily accessible on the go.
Available for download immediately on the Google Play Store, it works just like the web version allowing you to pick a device to locate and the location will be shown on Google Map. Check out Android Device Manager app for your Android devices now.

First used in Pixar's Brave in 2012, the Dolby Atmos audio technology is said to offer more natural and realistic sound as compared to existing 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound system. This is done through the use of ceiling-mounted speakers in addition to the usual surround sound setup in cinemas halls.
Having an impressive speaker setup doesn't mean much though if they are not able to be utilized properly. Hence, Dolby Atmos technology also gives content creators direct access to a maximum number of 64 individual speakers that would provide them more freedom to determine the sounds movement and direction in their work.
Starting from this month onwards, local cinema goers are able to experience Dolby Atmos right here in Malaysia as GSC have become the first cinema operator in the country to install the Dolby Atmos technology in their premise. Specifically, it was installed in the newly renovated Hall 3 of GSC 1 Utama.
If you are interested to check out Dolby Atmos yourself, try planning your viewing sessions around these Dolby Atmos movies:
- The White Storm (showing now)
- The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (12 December 2013)
- The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (26 December 2013).
- I, Frankenstein (23 January 2014)
- 300: Rise of an Empire (6 March 2014)
- Mr. Peabody and Sherman (20 March 2014)
- Rio 2 (10 April 2014)
- X-Men: Days of Future Past (22 May 2014)
- Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (7 August 2014).

Techradar: YouTube has announced improvements to its free on-demand movie service, after signing deals with a number of major distributors.
YouTube has tapped up the likes of Sony Pictures, Lionsgate and MGM and will be showing classic content through the site.
Although YouTube has been offering free movies for some time, the titles available have ranged from the obscure to the bizarre.
The new deal will mean that more recognisable movies like The Buena Vista Social Club will be made available.
Free films
"This is one of many efforts to ensure that people can find all the different kinds of video they want to see, from bedroom vlogs and citizen journalism reports to full-length films and TV shows," explained YouTube head of video partnerships, Donagh O'Malley.
"We hope film lovers enjoy the range of titles in this free library, whether catching up on a mainstream hit or delving into the vast archive of classic films from decades past."
YouTube has also announced a deal with Blinkbox, which will offer more than 150 movies of its archive for playback on the site.
This is the latest in a long line of link-ups the site has been doing, but the first for movies.
So far YouTube has been heavily investing in its TV output, signing deals with Channel 4 and Five.
Hopefully getting BlinkBox on board will be the start of something special for www.youtube.com/movies.

Excerpted from my upcoming book, 7 Truths that Changed the World (Baker 2012)
Theists and atheists do reason differently about God and the world. A common skeptical objection to the enterprise of Christian apologetics is that believers engage in a god-of-the-gaps form of reasoning. This charge means that the Christian theist typically attributes gaps in (especially) scientific knowledge to something God has done. For example, when science can't explain how the universe came into being or how life originated on Earth, the Christian apologist is quick to point to God as the cause or explanation. Thus the skeptic's accusation is that Christians do nothing more than give their ignorance a name—"God." No real and adequate explanation, says the skeptic, is provided by simply appealing to God as a cause or source. Continue reading

Antidepressants: Selecting one that's right for you
Confused by the choice in antidepressants? With persistence, you and your doctor should find one that works so that you can enjoy life more fully again.
By Mayo Clinic staffAntidepressants are a popular treatment choice for those with moderate or severe depression. Although antidepressants may not cure depression, they can reduce your symptoms. The first antidepressant you try may work fine. But if it doesn't relieve your symptoms, or it causes side effects that bother you, you may need to try another.
But don't give up. A number of antidepressants are available, and chances are you'll be able to find one that works well for you.
Finding the right antidepressant
There are a number of antidepressants available that work in slightly different ways and have different side effects. Most work equally well to relieve depression, so choosing the right one generally involves subtle differences. When prescribing an antidepressant that's likely to work well for you, your doctor may consider:
- Your particular symptoms. Symptoms of depression can vary, and one antidepressant may relieve certain symptoms better than another. For example, if your depression symptoms include low energy, an antidepressant that's slightly stimulating may be the best choice. On the other hand, if you have trouble sleeping, an antidepressant that's slightly sedating may be a good option.
- Possible side effects. Side effects of antidepressants vary from one medication to another and from person to person. Bothersome side effects can make it difficult to stick with treatment. Sexual side effects are a particularly common reason people stop taking an antidepressant.
- Whether it worked for a close relative. How a medication worked for a first-degree relative, such as a parent or sibling, can indicate how well it might work for you.
- Interaction with other medications. Some antidepressants can cause dangerous reactions when taken with other medications.
- Whether you're pregnant or breast-feeding. Many antidepressants may not be safe for your baby when taken during pregnancy or later when you're breast-feeding. Work with your doctor to find the best way to manage your depression when you're expecting.
- Your other health conditions. Some antidepressants may cause problems if you have certain mental or physical health conditions. On the other hand, certain antidepressants may help treat other physical or mental health conditions along with depression. For example, bupropion (Wellbutrin, Wellbutrin SR, Wellbutrin XL) may relieve symptoms of both attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and depression.
- Cost and health insurance coverage. Some antidepressants can be very expensive, especially if there's no generic version available.
Types of antidepressants
Certain brain chemicals called neurotransmitters are associated with depression, particularly the neurotransmitters serotonin (ser-oh-TOE-nin), norepinephrine (nor-ep-ih-NEF-rin) and dopamine (DOE-puh-mene). Most antidepressants relieve depression by affecting these neurotransmitters. Each type (class) of antidepressant affects these neurotransmitters in slightly different ways.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)
Many doctors start depression treatment by prescribing an SSRI. SSRIs are safe and relieve depression for most people. However, like many antidepressants, they can cause sexual side effects — most commonly failure to achieve orgasm in women and delayed ejaculation in men. SSRIs include:
- Citalopram (Celexa)
- Escitalopram (Lexapro)
- Fluoxetine (Prozac, Prozac Weekly, Sarafem)
- Fluvoxamine (Luvox, Luvox CR)
- Paroxetine (Paxil, Paxil CR, Pexeva)
- Sertraline (Zoloft)
Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs)
SNRIs include:
- Venlafaxine (Effexor XR). Venlafaxine may work for some people when other antidepressants haven't. It can cause side effects similar to those caused by SSRIs. Venlafaxine can raise blood pressure, and overdose can be dangerous or fatal.
- Desvenlafaxine (Pristiq). Desvenlafaxine is similar to venlafaxine and causes similar side effects. Studies haven't proven any advantage to desvenlafaxine over venlafaxine, and since venlafaxine is available in a generic form, it's generally a more affordable option.
- Duloxetine (Cymbalta). Duloxetine may help relieve physical pain in addition to depression — but it isn't clear yet whether it works better than other antidepressants for pain relief. Duloxetine can cause a number of side effects. Nausea, dry mouth and constipation are particularly common. You shouldn't take duloxetine if you're a heavy drinker or you have certain liver or kidney problems.
Atypical antidepressants
These medications are called "atypical" because they don't fit neatly into other categories. Generally, atypical antidepressants cause fewer sexual side effects than other antidepressants do. Atypical antidepressants include:
- Bupropion (Wellbutrin, Wellbutrin SR, Wellbutrin XL) has few sexual side effects. It may also suppress appetite, and it may help you stop smoking if you're trying to quit. People with seizure disorders or who have bulimia or anorexia shouldn't take bupropion.
- Trazodone (Oleptro). This mild antidepressant is often prescribed as a sleep aid because it can be very sedating.
- Mirtazapine (Remeron, Remeron SolTab). Like trazodone, mirtazapine can be sedating. It may increase lipid levels and cholesterol.
- Nefazodone. This antidepressant is effective, but isn't commonly prescribed because it has been linked to dangerous liver problems.
Tricyclic and tetracyclic antidepressants
These older antidepressants are effective, but are usually not a first-choice treatment for depression because of numerous side effects such as dry mouth, constipation, difficulty urinating, sedation, weight gain and sexual side effects. In some cases, a low dose of a cyclic antidepressant may be added to another antidepressant, such as an SSRI, to increase the antidepressant effect. Overdosing on a cyclic antidepressant can be deadly. These medications are not usually given to older adults or people who have low blood pressure or certain heart problems. Tricyclic and tetracyclic antidepressants include:
- Amitriptyline
- Clomipramine (Anafranil)
- Doxepin (Silenor, Zonalon)
- Imipramine (Tofranil, Tofranil-PM)
- Trimipramine (Surmontil)
- Desipramine (Norpramin)
- Nortriptyline (Pamelor, Aventyl)
- Protriptyline (Vivactil)
- Amoxapine
- Maprotiline
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs)
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are used as a last resort because of numerous bothersome and potentially dangerous serious side effects. However, MAOIs can be effective for some forms of depression when other medications haven't worked. Side effects can include dizziness, dry mouth, upset stomach, difficult urination, twitching muscles, sexual side effects, drowsiness and sleep problems. MAOIs can cause potentially fatal high blood pressure when combined with certain foods and beverages and certain other medications. MAOIs include:
- Isocarboxazid (Marplan)
- Phenelzine (Nardil)
- Tranylcypromine (Parnate)
- Selegiline (Emsam, Eldepryl, Zelapar)
Emsam is a type of MAOI that you stick on your skin (transdermal patch). It appears to have fewer side effects than MAOIs in pill form have, and with lower dose patches, dietary restrictions may not be needed.

Should You Apply To a Company That Is "Always Looking?"
June 15th, 2012At times signing on to a certain company can be sort of like dating. Do you want to be with someone whose eyes are always on the prowl looking for the next best thing? Do you want to be with someone who is always interested in connecting themselves with someone better?
Chances are, if a company is the best of the best, it will want to work with the best. If you believe you are the best, you will have a great chance of sticking around.
Many companies advertise that they are "always looking for talented candidates." They may not have a particular position listed, but if you are outstanding at an aspect of your industry, you can be sure that they will take a look at you. If you are an average candidate, you probably won't get a second look.
So what exactly does a company mean when it puts itself out there this way?
- They do not have exact positions available but are looking for candidates who can knock their socks off to invest in.
- They are harvesting resumes for when the budget allows for a needed position.
- They are looking to replace a worker who may be nearing retirement or have some padding if an employer leaves.
Many people have gotten jobs through these types of advertisements. There are ways to approach a different sort of recruiting method such as this including:
- Send in a cover letter and resume explaining what you have to offer: You may be so successful at what you do that the company will have to have you.
- Never call: This is like a cold-call for sales. Plus, you don't want to bother them if they are not looking to fill any positions and have better things to do.
If you want to connect your outstanding skills with the best employers contact Clark Personnel Service today!

Ratings & Reviews
Overall, others give this:
Papillion, NE
via sears.com
This pressure washer pump saver is a great value! It's only a couple dollars more than the hardware stores but twice the size. I believe a little preventative maintenance goes a long way. I use this in the spring and fall and have had my pressure washer for 3 years and I haven't had any problems.
Cedar Rapids, IA
via sears.com
The pumpsaver is very easy to use. Be sure to stay out of the way of the oulet or you will be squirted too.
Mokelumne Hill, CA
via sears.com
Its name says it all, it is used on my pressure washer.
Olympia, WA
via sears.com
Sprayed into power washer twice and it didn't free up the compressor.
Kent, WA
via sears.com
Great product easy to use and little to no mess. I will always keep craftsman pump saver on hand in my garage.
Modesto, CA
via sears.com
With hard water I figured it was cheap insurance. Doesn't take much to lubricate pump, be ready for pressurized excess with a towel. Definitly a type of luricant/oil judging by excess solution. If can stays pressurized it may be enough for many uses.
Wheatfield, IN
via sears.com
If this helps to protect the pump in storage, it's on my workbench shelf. So far this product has kept my pressure washer ready to go each season I use it. No issues with the pump acting up or not getting pressure to "come up". Just a nice insurance policy IMO.
Redford, MI
via sears.com
I was thrilled the sales person asked if I had a power washer. He suggested I buy this product, because with out it, stored in the garage. the winter weather would ruin the motor. It was very easy to use. I'm thrilled my $400 power washer is protected.
Cedar Rapids, IA
via sears.com
It sounds like a good idea or is it a way to upsale you at the register. remains to be seen.
Howell, MI
via sears.com
Craftsman Pressure Washer Pump Saver is easy to use and protects the pump during periods when the Pressure Washer is not in use. It doesn't get much easier than this. Simply attach the hose that is on the can to the water INLET on the pressure washer. Depress the button on top of the can to add the pump saver. Hold the button until the Pump Saver/Lubricant comes out of the water OUTLET. Release the button...you're done! It only takes seconds to protect your Craftsman Pressure Washer. Since it only takes a little to complete the job, the can of Craftsman Pump Saver will last a long time. Be sure to read the manufacturers instructions for proper preparation and storage of your pressure washer during periods when the pressure is not in use.

Posted: 10:25 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2009
By Jamie Dupree
The House Rules Committee has decided the parameters of the debate Wednesday on the $825 billion economic stimulus bill, and there's been a few changes along the way.
Along with striking the language on family planning (contraceptives) from the bill, Democrats have also taken out $200 million in money for revitalization of the National Mall here in Washington, D.C.
Another change requires $15 million in historic preservation funding for the National Park Service be set aside for Historically Black Colleges. It also waives the "institutional match" for these purposes - in other words - the schools aren't paying for anything.
There is an interesting addition that requires states to notify the feds within 45 days of the approval of this bill as to whether they are interested in receiving funding from it. It's not clear to me what that's all about.
Also the bill waives the local government matching requirements and the limits on salaries for two years of extra funding of the COPS program, which is a program that helps police forces hire extra officers.
Eleven amendments have been allowed in this debate. Several seem interesting, like one that would add $3 billion in transit funding. That's backed by a number of big city Democrats.
Republicans will get the chance to strike funding in the bill for Amtrak. Another amendment would get rid of all the spending provisions in the legislation.
The GOP will also get the chance to present their own plan at the end of the debate. You can see it at http://www.rules.house.gov/111/SpecialRules/hr1/111_hr1_camp11.pdf
That plan cuts income taxes for the bottom two brackets, includes alternative minimum tax relief, small business deduction, bonus depreciation, small business expensing, expanded carryback of net operating losses, improved home buyer credit, unemployment benefit tax exemption, health insurance premium deduction, repeal of 3 percent withholding requirement for government contractors and an extension of unemployment benefits.

Daughter loves the necklace
beautiful; exactly as shown; delivered exactly as promised
This necklace was even more beautiful than it appeared in the photos on the website! I gave it to my daughter for a graduation gift and she absolutely loved it.
Very beautiful but smallish pearl
For beauty and quality it is really exceptional. I have given the lower rating, though, because I was under the impression the pearl would be substantially larger. I think it would be best to have an "actual size" image on the web site, which would solve this problem. I don't know why I thought it would be bigger, but I did. All that said, the piece is very beautiful, including the pearl, and my girlfriend loved it.
This piece is amazing. The pearl is so nice and the diamond made it complete. My wife loved it.
My wife LOVED it. Perfect fit, just in my price range! Quick delivery, secure site. I am going to start shopping here for all my jewelry purchases.
The necklace is beautiful - I got it for my girlfriend for Christmas, and she loved it.
She loved this necklace and has worn it every day!
Beautiful piece--perfect size, perfect sparkle, and an exquisite pearl.
Perfect for every day wear and yet gorgeous enough for a night out!
She loved it! The chain is a little small but I love the way it looks on her. She wears it almost every day. Mission accomplished.
It is a bit smaller than what I had expected and seen of other 7-7.5mm pearls. However, the shine, the color and shape is near perfect. I just wish it was a bit bigger. The chain was also a bit on the longer side of what I felt was a good length to hang from the neck.

OZ. bottle Served in a conical pint glass A - This beer has a burnt orange body with amber highlights. It was topped with an inch of beige head that quickly disappeared. S - The smell has the usual suspects, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. T - It tastes of pumpkin spice, and that is about it. M - Thin O - This is a decent pumpkin beer. The mouthfeel is watered down though.

Nutmeg and cinnamon, with a light ginger aroma after some deep sniffs. Mild pumpkin aroma as swirled. Some sweet malt. No hop aroma. Appearance: Light orange in color. Brilliantly clear and sparkling. Small white head with fine bubbles, mostly from the nucleation site on the bottom of my glass. Flavor: Malty but not overly sweet, more like a Vienna lager. A good mixture of nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger that is not overwhelming but does stay with you after the sip. No astringency. No hop flavors. Finish is crisp and lagery with a hint of pilsner malt. Mouthfeel is a bit light. Overall: Not a bad beer. I like the crispness of it and the well balanced spices.

Zip! Plenty of carbonation however. Aroma: Nothing but spices. Ginger, nutmeg, and a bit of cinnamon. Has a pleasant sweetness to it although the whole package leaves a lot to be desired. Light pumpkin notes. Taste: Light for a pumpkin beer, but everything carries over from the aroma. Spices are dominant in the flavor profile. I was hoping for more than a load of spice. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied lager with hardly any noticable carbonation. Overall: Nothing special here. It's not the worst pumpkin beer I've ever had but t's also far from the best. The spice overload is a bit too much to enjoy.

I bought as many different ones as I could and I am now working my way through them between Hallowe'en and Thanksgiving. From the bottle: "Brewed in Milwaukee for people who like beer." I like beer, so this should be right up my alley! I gave it a good heavy handed pour, resulting in two fingers of creamy, tawny head with great retention. Color was a pumpkin-like orangish-amber (SRM = > 7, < 9) with NE-quality clarity. I know that 8 is between 7 and 9, but my card does not have that shade. Nose was VERY spicy, cinnamon, clove and ginger being prevalent. Mouthfeel was much fuller than the Stoudt's pumkin lager, giving this one a creamy aspect. The spices were just right, not overwhelming and by closing my eyes, I could imagine drinking a cool pumpkin latte. This is a great pumpkin lager, but don't tell Linus or he might be panicked! Get it, a Great Pumpkin lager? Finish was semi-dry, but because they showed some restraint at the spice shelf, it was not as dry as it might have been.

Sweet and pumpkin flavored, but not overpowered. It's hard to tell it's a lager... something you could use to introduce a cider fan to beer. I'd rate a cider with these properties higher, but I expected more from a beer... Serving type: bottle 11-08-2013 22:34:42 | More by Bernoulli dbrauneisNorth Carolina 3.63/5 rDev +4.9% look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.75 A: Pours a crystal clear burnt orange to amber in color with light amounts of gentle visible carbonation along the edges of the glass and some golden yellow highlights. The beer has a three finger tall sudsy foamy light beige head that reduces to a very thick film covering the entire surface of the beer with a slightly thicker ring at the edges of the glass. Significant amounts of lacing are observed. S: Moderate aromas of pumpkin pie spices - cinnamon and nutmeg stand out - along with some lighter aromas of slightly sweet pumpkin. T: Upfront there is a slightly sweet flavor of grainy malts with light to moderate flavors of pumpkin. That is followed by moderate flavors of pumpkin pie spices - cinnamon and nutmeg - as well as some lighter notes of cardamon. Minimal amounts of bitterness are perceptible. M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Smooth with hints of dryness from the spices towards the finish as the beer warms up. O: This beer has a really nice flavor to it and is quite enjoyable - nice combination of pumpkin pie spices, pumpkin, and cardamon. Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol. Definitely recommend this one for a quite enjoyable brew for a fall evening. Great with ginger snaps after dinner. Serving type: bottle 11-04-2013 02:29:42 | More by dbrauneis |

I know that tax season is still not for a few months, but I thought posting something about this now would help save time when tax season hits. That way it will give you time to figure out and organize some of these little things. Every little bit helps! Sometimes, saving money on your tax return comes down to little more than keeping good records. And that means tracking all those little expenses, because they can add up throughout the year. Sure, you know to deduct that new computer you bought, and the money you paid the accountant, and you're even taking your home office deduction. The question is, are you capturing all the small expenses, too?
Frequently Forgotten Expenses
It's staggering how much goes into running a small business, and how quickly things can become tangled between business and personal accounts – especially for sole proprietors. Think about it. You're doing your grocery shopping and remember you need a new desk calendar, so you toss one in your cart. Or you're Christmas shopping on Amazon and see a good deal on printer ink, so you stock up. Or maybe you're meeting a potential client for breakfast and while you remembered to deduct your meal, you forgot about the mileage to get there.
These types of common but small expenses can quickly add up to a major tax deduction. The trick is remembering to deduct them, and keeping solid records. Some of the most common (and often overlooked) business expenses include:
- PayPal and other payment processing fees. If you get paid via PayPal, then you know they charge around 3% of each transaction for the service. These fees add up fast, so make sure you're keeping track and adding them to your tax return as "bank fees."
- Dues and subscriptions. Do you belong to paid forums or membership sites related to your business? These charges are deductible as well.
- Office supplies. This includes small stuff like paper and pencils and printer ink, along with big-ticket items like furniture and computers.
- Domain names and hosting. Your Hostgator bill, GoDaddy purchases, etc.
- Advertising. Whether you do pay-per-click via Google or Facebook, buy solo ads on mailing lists, or pay for post placement on other websites, it's all deductible. And don't forget your mailing list provider!
- Commissions. Do you have affiliates? Deduct those payments!
- Milage. Do you have to drive somewhere to meet with clients? To the office? What about to the store for supplies or even to the post office to mail things for your business? It's dectable if you keep track of it! I've foud the best way to keep track is through apps. I hightly recommend using Milebug. It has done a fantastic job keeping track of my milage, I can store different locations and information about which vehicle I'm using, and I can even have my milage spreadsheet sent strait from the app to my email with all the information I'll need at tax time.
Keeping Good Records
The key to making the most of your tax deductions lies in keeping good records. For most small businesses, the simplest solution is to use a software program set up specifically for this purpose, such as Quickbooks or Peachtree. Another option is Outright. It's extremely easy to use and you can connect your paypal and other parts of your business to it so it will automatically update. No matter what solution you choose, though, make sure you consistently record your expenses. The last thing you want to do is scramble at the end of the year to find receipts and enter data. That would be a nightmare.
Instead, set aside time each week (or more often, if necessary) to update your books. If you find it overwhelming and you tend to put it off, consider hiring someone to maintain your accounts for you. Remember – what you pay him or her is deductible as well!
Finding all those hidden expenses can mean the difference between a huge tax bill and one that is more manageable. While the things listed here will get you started, it's a good idea to also speak with a tax professional. Make sure he or she fully understands the nature of your business, so he or she can ask the right questions and make appropriate recommendations for your business write-offs.
For more information on staying organized and keeping track of your expenses, feel free to contact me. I know it can get overwhelming, but I can help and give you more time to do things that are more important to you.

How The West Will Be Won: Texas Rangers
We're finally here, the source of all Angels fans agony last season, the bane of the teams existence, the Texas Rangers. We all know how everything came together so well for the Rangers last season, perfect team chemistry, no substantial injuries, and veteran players leading the team to the World Series. The question looming over everyone's head in the offseason: Can they do it again this year? Can they win it all? The only logical answer I can think of is a big fat maybe, we need to take a closer look at the roster of the 2011 Rangers.
The Rangers had a magical playoff run for the ages? Oh i'm sorry, I didn't see it on account of the gleaming silver of this World Series Ring blinding me. Im sure you Rangers fans have had that problem too.
