If you're thinking this is a firm memory foam -- it's not. Most memory foams I know will leave an imprint. This is soft and bouncy. To be sure, your pup won't sink to the floor (there is a lot of material), but the memory foam is padded with other stuff -- it's not all memory foam. The Sand color made me chuckle -- it looks like something from the 70s, and when it's on a large 3'X4', it REALLY takes over. I tried sending this back. Overstock wanted to charge me well over $20 per bed. The best part was the guy on the phone said: "That's why I don't buy things online and prefer to buy things in person -- you can't tell with beds and with colors." Nice. He got some free, unsolicited career advice from me. This goes in my how not to run a company book.
I've been looking for a nice firm, supportive bed for my 11 year-old, 75-pound lab and have done lots of research and red lots of online reviews. Trusting in the Simmons name, in memory foam, and in the positive reviews on Overstock.com, I ordered this bed. When I pulled it out of the box the bed was very floppy. I immediately unzipped the cover to look inside and discovered to my extreme disappointment that the "2 inches of bonded polyester" consists of 2 layers of a material that resembles cotton batting in consistency and which compressed to 1/4-inch or less with a light pinch. There is indeed a 2-inch layer of memory foam on top of that, and it seemed of OK quality but my old, stiff-hipped gal needs more firm support beneath that--the bonded polyester seemed to me completely useless in that regard, so back goes the bed. On a positive note, the customer service rep who just handled my call was wonderful--very kind, efficient, and customer-oriented. I will certainly continue to shop on Overstock.com.
I bought this bed because my dog has a weak hip and I noticed that she was very stiff when she woke up. The bed is a bit high and it took her a bit of coaxing to get her onto it but now she likes it and she hasn't woken up stiff anymore. I've had the bed for a month now and it hasn't shown any sign of sagging. It's firm but soft and the Overstock price can't be beat. I highly recommend this bed for any dog with joint or hip problems.
This is a thick, plush, well-made bed. I got the silver sage and it's a lovely muted light green--true to its description. Thick piping, and the density is amaaazing! I laid on it with my shep/lab mix--I'm 135 pounds, she's 65 and neither us of sank through to the floor. It's super thick and soft. Not too firm, and not mushy. I highly doubt it will get lumpy. And because it is so thick, she can hang her head off the side, which most dogs love to do. It's pretty much like a giant couch cushion. It's great!! She's been crashed out, with body fully extended, for hours since it arrived. She looks completely at peace. It's her own personal mattress! LOVE IT!
bed itself was good quality but the sand color was not sand it was an old lady gold
this bed has no 'body' to it. our 58 pound rotti mix sinks to the floor. the last simmons was great. we still have it and it still has great support, but it is impossible to launder, so I thought I'd simply replace it....this is NOT the same. awful. huge disappointment.
Memory foam for my pet! I love my memory foam bed and my doggie loves his. A great buy.
If you are looking for a bed that has support this is NOT the bed for you. In the picture the dog is on top of the bed and is not sunk in. In real life this bed is very floppy and my dog sinks into it. The picture is very very misleading. This one is going back.
My dog just loves it! Best purchase made at a great price!
This is one BIG dog bed. Make sure you have the floor space to use if you have a house dog and the strength to carry/move it. I got it for my sister who has three dogs. They use it occasionally but seem to prefer to sleep against it rather than on it. While I am no expert but it doesn't really feel like memory foam. Although it is heavy it seems to be due more to the size than the density of the foam.

Has Snap Appy done away with the Snap Five? I havent seemed to be able to get one in weeks. I had one and the bar code would not come up at all but the other coupons I had for the $5 off $25 & $15 off $75 would.
I haven't gotten one in weeks either :( last one I had too didn't have a barcode either :(
Same thing happened to me , no bar code so no good, no snap 5 in a while
Yes, same problem. I emailed ON about it and they sent me a $5 appreciation card in the mail.
I think they gave away with the snapfive, unfortunately! I got lots of free or $1 items with it last year. :(
I haven't gotten any Snap Five for at least 2 weeks! Last i received mine without bar code too! I wished I knew this app sooner as I've only done it for a month! And somehow I have never gotten any "Goodie Bag" or "Gametastic".
Me either! Makes me sad! That was my favorite app! I haven't got a snap five in weeks :(
Just figured I'd let everyone know I finally got a snap five this morning!! They are back! Bar code still doesnt come up but theres a 4 digit code that looks like it would be right under the bar code. Im going to go to my old navy tonight and see about using it! Especially with the $5 swimsuits!
I got this meal along with an in store coupon for $15/$50.
Publix is selling the $50 Old Navy gift cards for $40 this week. Major stacking with the in-store coupon!!
Or you could do the $25 gap pc for $20 at micheals if you don't think you spend that much/live near publix.
What is the deal on the card at Michael's?
Buy a $25 gap GC (which works at Old Navy Stores) for only $20 at Michaels.
I got a 10 rewards from old navy! Bought a lot of tshirts for my daughter and after 2 washes they have holes! So, I won't be buying no more clothes for her there. I'm very careful with the washing and try to hang to dry some to not damage!

Crawford Hoying Unveils Plans for $300M Mixed-Use Project in Dublin
By Adrian Maties, Associate Editor
Dublin has been the recipient of some major good news lately. First, Columbus CEO magazine readers recently selected Dublin as The Best Central Ohio Suburb to Do Business for the third consecutive year. Then, on Oct. 22, city officials and local developer Crawford Hoying unveiled plans for Bridge Park, a $300 million mixed-use project that its backers say will transform the city and create what they call "a world-class environment."
Crawford Hoying Development Partners is teaming up with the city and and Boston-based Elkus Manfredi Architects. Bridge Park's proposed site is a 25-acre parcel east of the Scioto River in the 1,100-acre Bridge Street District.
Its residential component includes 1,026 apartments with ground-floor retail space, plus 136 condominiums. Young professionals and empty nesters will be the targeted customers.
The commercial portion calls for 140,000 square feet of office space, a grocery store, restaurants, parking garages, a fitness center, and a 196-key hotel with an adjacent conference center. According to the developers, Cameron Mitchell has committed to bringing two restaurants to the development. Columbus-based Indus Hotels will handle the hotel and convention center.
The city plans to invest about $40 million in infrastructure improvements, including parks on each side of the river and a pedestrian bridge linking the development to Dublin's historic center.
Crawford Hoying is eyeing a 2014 kickoff for the project, with completion slated for 2018.

Firefighters lay Unit 2 to rest
Polk County Enterprise - October 2009
Firefighters honored Jimmy Stephens, who held the call sign "Unit 2" with Livingston Volunteer Fire Department for 36 years, during funeral services Saturday. The honor guard and procession included all Polk County fire departments as well as many departments throughout Southeast Texas who attend the annual fire school in Livingston. Stephens organized meals at fire school and all LVFD events. Equipment and firefighters from Huntsville, Cleveland, Trinity and Tarkington stood by to answer calls in the Livingston area while firefighters said farewell to a man who was an integral part of LVFD. Fire Chief Corky Cochran said Stephens stayed involved with the department until his death. He served the best he could right up until the end. Stephens' family said he battled his illness in a selfless way. He tried to protect his children and loved ones and avoided speaking about the pain he endured, said Mickey Stephens. At the end of his life he had a close relationship with the Lord and there was nothing left unsaid. He wanted to leave a simple legacy behind — that he did not lie, he did not cheat, he did not steal.

The primary commodities hauled are industrial gases, steel and building materials. The passenger ride is a rail journey through forest and farmland from Battle Ground to Moulton Falls Park. In 1997, excursions had to be cancelled due to mud slides and bridge damage from flooding and heavy rains in 1996.
Palouse River & Coulee City Railroad (PCC)
- A shortline railroad serving the East Central part of Washington. It was originally known as the Palouse River Railroad when it was established in 1992.

These routes were previously controlled by the Burlington Northern Railroad. The PCC is owned by Watco, Inc. of Pittsburg, Kansas. The principal commodities hauled by PCC are grain and other farm products.
Blue Mountain Railroad (BLMR)
- A shortline railroad serving the Southeast part of Washington. The BLMR was established in 1992 and is former Union Pacific trackage.

From the yard, a branch line goes south through Milton Freewater, OR to Smith Frozen Foods in Weston, OR. Another branch also heads out of Walla Walla north to Prescott, WA and then east through Waitsburg to Dayton. At Dayton, the BLMR serves the Pillsbury plant at the east end of town. The BLMR is also operating on former UP trackage between Colfax and Hooper, Colfax and Pullman, and between Winona and Thornton. The BLMR is also owned by Watco, Inc. of Pittsburg, Kansas. The principal commodities hauled by the BLMR are grain, forest products, frozen foods and other farm products.
Pend Oreille Valley Railroad (POVA)
- A shortline railroad operating on the former Milwaukee Road branch line between Newport, WA and Metaline Falls, WA. The entire line is about 62 miles long. It was originally incorporated in 1979 as the Pend Oreille Valley Railroad, Inc. The corporation was dissolved in 1984 and the line was taken over by the Port Commission who continues to operate the line. The primary commodities transported are newsprint and cement. Excursion trips are also conducted between Ione and Metaline Falls. POVA is also operating on BNSF trackage between Newport, WA and Dover, ID under a lease agreement.

The PS&P is headquartered in Elma, WA and is a division of the Arizona & California Railroad. Operations began on August 30, 1997.
Royal Slope Railroad (RS)
- A shortline railroad that operates approximately 26 miles of track between Othello, WA and Royal City, WA. It was originally a branch line of the Milwaukee Road's Pacific Coast extension. It was also owned, for a while, by the ex-Washington Central Railroad who once boycotted the line and applied for abandonment due to low traffic levels and high maintenance costs. The line is now owned by Washington State and leased by the Royal City Port Authority. The railroad is operated by the Yakima Valley Rail and Steam Museum Association. Interchange is made at Othello with the Columbia Basin Railroad.
Toppenish, Simcoe and Western Railroad (TSWR)
- A shortline and tourist railroad that operates on the ex-Northern Pacific branch between Toppenish, WA and White Swan, WA.

Berkshire Hathaway held its annual shareholders meeting over the weekend. The company, run by Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett (the world's richest man, and one of my personal heroes), continues to do well, though Buffett warned shareholders not to expect continued stellar returns as in years gone by. "Anyone that expects us to come close to replicating the past should sell their stock," Buffett said. "It isn't going to happen. I think we're going to get decent results over time, but we're not going to get indecent results."
I had a chance to attend this year's gathering, which drew around 31,000 people to Omaha, Nebraska. I'm not a Berkshire Hathaway shareholder, but I had access to a ticket. Ultimately, I didn't have time, and it was difficult to justify the cost. Instead, I spent part of the weekend reading some of Warren Buffett's annual letters to shareholders, for which he is well-known. Though these letters include plenty of numbers, they're interspersed with practical investment advice, astute observations on the economy, and lots of folksy humor. His 1997 letter contains some advice appropriate to our current volatile market.
A short quiz: If you plan to eat hamburgers throughout your life and are not a cattle producer, should you wish for higher or lower prices for beef? Likewise, if you are going to buy a car from time to time but are not an auto manufacturer, should you prefer higher or lower car prices? These questions, of course, answer themselves.
But now for the final exam: If you expect to be a net saver during the next five years, should you hope for a higher or lower stock market during that period? Many investors get this one wrong. Even though they are going to be net buyers of stocks for many years to come, they are elated when stock prices rise and depressed when they fall. In effect, they rejoice because prices have risen for the "hamburgers" they will soon be buying. This reaction makes no sense. Only those who will be sellers of equities in the near future should be happy at seeing stocks rise. Prospective purchasers should much prefer sinking prices.
That's the portion of the letter that is most often quoted. But I think the next few paragraphs are just as interesting because they demonstrate how he puts this philosophy into practice.
For shareholders of Berkshire who do not expect to sell, the choice is even clearer. To begin with, our owners are automatically saving even if they spend every dime they personally earn: Berkshire "saves" for them by retaining all earnings, thereafter using these savings to purchase businesses and securities. Clearly, the more cheaply we make these buys, the more profitable our owners' indirect savings program will be.
Furthermore, through Berkshire you own major positions in companies that consistently repurchase their shares. The benefits that these programs supply us grow as prices fall: When stock prices are low, the funds that an investee spends on repurchases increase our ownership of that company by a greater amount than is the case when prices are higher. For example, the repurchases that Coca-Cola, The Washington Post and Wells Fargo made in past years at very low prices benefitted Berkshire far more than do today's repurchases, made at loftier prices.
At the end of every year, about 97% of Berkshire's shares are held by the same investors who owned them at the start of the year. That makes them savers. They should therefore rejoice when markets decline and allow both us and our investees to deploy funds more advantageously.
So smile when you read a headline that says "Investors lose as market falls." Edit it in your mind to "Disinvestors lose as market falls — but investors gain." Though writers often forget this truism, there is a buyer for every seller and what hurts one necessarily helps the other. (As they say in golf matches: "Every putt makes someone happy.")
It's sensible advice, but so easy to forget when you see the value of your invetments plummeting. And this is just one part of one shareholder letter. I still have more than twenty others left to read!
Though I didn't have the time to make the pilgrimage to Omaha this year, the opportunity may present itself in the future. I hope so. I think it'd be a kick to attend this "Woodstock for capitalists", which apparently includes an exhibit hall filled with vendors from the companies Berkshire Hathaway owns.

If you had a million dollars…you still couldn't buy a Zenvo ST1.
Your nearly-one-point-two-five-million George Washingtons (or, snicker, Millard Fillmores) buys you one of 15 Zenvos built every year, each equipped with a 7.0 liter V8 from the Chevy Corvette
ZR1 Z06 and pumping out 1,104 horsepower and 1055 lb-ft of torque thanks to a supercharger and a turbocharger. A good ol' six-speed stick handles all that power as it heads to the rear wheels. (Check out more pictures of the Zenvo ST1 in our photo gallery.)
The company also imports several other cars not usually seen in the U.S., such as the heavily armored Russian SUV known as the Dartz Kombat (you know, the SUV that used to offer a whale penis leather interior) and the 650-860 horsepower Gumpert Apollo, which importer Red Sea Distribution is marketing with the unfortunate tagline, "The Germans are attempting to break the speed of light, again." We don't have the heart to tell them the truth about that slogan. [via Autoblog, Red Sea Distribution]
The 7L V8 is from the corvette Z06 not the ZR1

Where should I go to get my shingles vaccine as I cannot go to Express Scripts?
This counsel is needed by all of old folks who do not have part D Medicare programs for this service.
From: WPS on 2012-11-16 11:48:17
Dear R,
Thank you for contacting TRICARE4u Web Support.
As recommended by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention for beneficiaries 60 and older, TRICARE covers Zostavax, the vaccine designed to prevent shingles.
You have two options on receiving the Zostavax vaccine:
1) You may receive the shingles vaccine at no cost at a participating TRICARE retail network pharmacy. To find a pharmacy that participates in the vaccine program, you may visit http://www.express-scripts.com/TRICARE/pharmacy/ or call 1-877-363-1303. Be sure to call the pharmacy first to see if there are any restrictions.
2) You may receive the shingles vaccine from your doctor's office. However, because Medicare does not cover the vaccine, TRICARE For Life (TFL) will be processing the claim as primary payer when received at a provider's office. When TFL pays as primary, there is a $150.00 deductible and then a 25% cost-share (TFL will pay 75% of the allowed amount after the deductible has been met). Medicare will cover the administration of the medication, but not the medication itself, so the provider will need to submit the claim to Medicare first.
TRICARE will not pay for the shingles vaccine if your doctor writes you a prescription to buy the shingles vaccine and have it administered at his or her office.
Please Note: Benefits and Authorizations are not a guarantee of payment.
I hope this information has been helpful. If you have any additional questions or if you need further assistance, please contact WPS-TDEFIC Customer Service through the www.TRICARE4u.com website.
Thank you,
TRICARE4u Web Support

IMM Cologne 2011: Bruehl and Team 7 Will Offer Double the Creativity
Bruehl, known for its sustainable upholstery qualities and Team 7, the natural solid wood specialist, will definitely be among the exhibitors to watch at this year's IMM Cologne show, which has just kicked off. Cologne, or simply Koln for the Germans, is the design capital of the world these days and these two manufacturers certainly have some stories to tell. Team 7 won three Interior Innovation Awards for IMM Cologne 2011 (the LUX collection, STERN coffee table and the VAO kitchen) while Bruehl also won an Interior Innovation Award 2011 at the same show for the Easy Pieces design. In case you happen to be in Germany then you should definitely check the show out and make sure you have some time for Bruehl's and Team 7's concepts.

In Sicilian dialect the word is maccu. In Ligurian dialect the word is marro, but no matter what the dialect word is, this spreadable paste made from fresh fava beans is delicious. It is best to use young fava beans since they will be much creamier than older and bigger beans. If larger beans are the only kind available, they will need to be cooked first in boiling water before proceeding with the recipe.
Boil until the outer skin of the bean easily slips off, and the beans are soft enough to be mashed between the fingers. Fava beans are also available frozen.
3 pounds fresh fava beans, shelled (about 3 cups shelled if small, or 1 3/4 cups if need to peel outer shell)
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1/4 to 1/2 cup Filippo Berio Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup grated Pecorino cheese
Grinding of black pepper
12 small slices of bread, toasted
In a food processor, grind the fava beans to a pulp with the garlic cloves. Slowly pour enough olive oil through the feed tube with the motor running until a smooth but not too runny paste forms. The fava beans should have the consistency of mashed potatoes.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the cheese. Spread a small amount on the bread slices and drizzle each one with a little extra-virgin olive oil. Extra paste can be stored in a jar in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Serve the toasts immediately.
Did you know that fava beans love to grow in cool weather and will germinate in soil as cold as 40 degrees?

WATERTOWN — Jefferson County is moving forward with a plan to overhaul its aging public safety communications system.
The project, which is predicted to cost up to $15 million over a period of up to four years, will require the development of 12 to 15 sites for antenna towers that will support a new system intended to increase the portable communications abilities of first responders, law enforcement officers and public works officials.
Following a presentation from Lee R. Palmer and Mark A. Hoppe of Blue Wing Services Inc., a St. Paul, Minn., communications consultant, legislators agreed to seek a "trunked" digital system, which allows for more conversations across available channels.
According to the consultants, with a trunked system, 150 to 200 talk paths require only 10 to 12 channels, as opposed to a conventional system, which would require 150 to 200 channels.
And with a limited number of available frequencies in the area, a trunked system would be the most effective, the consultants said.
The system will operate in the UHF band and use a series of repeaters and communications towers to allow police, firefighters and other personnel to respond to each other using handheld radios.
Agreeing to go with the trunked system will allow Blue Wing to put together a request for proposal, according to Jefferson County Deputy Administrator Michael E. Kaskan.
The county's current system, which was installed in the 1970s and updated sporadically over the years, is out of date and in dire need of replacement, according to comments made to legislators last year by Jefferson County Emergency Management director Joseph D. Plummer.
A study by Blue Wing found that the portable capabilities of agencies within the county fall well short of covering 50 percent of the county. The goal is to bring that coverage up to 97 percent, according to the consultants.
Jefferson County received a $6 million grant last year to help defray the costs of implementing the new system. The money to hire Blue Wing to diagnose problems within the current system and suggest solutions came from an $89,900 grant from the Department of Homeland Security.
The consultants will help shepherd the project through its various phases, according to Mr. Plummer.
"Blue Wing will be doing the oversight of that," Mr. Plummer said. "If someone wants to charge us x, they can say, 'This isn't copacetic.'"
Mr. Plummer said the upgrade of a communications system is one of the largest capital projects many counties will ever tackle.
Madison County spent $14 million in 2009, Nassau County spent $42 million in 2005, Onondaga spent $32 million in 2007 and Oswego spent $15 million in 2011 to upgrade their systems, according to Mr. Palmer and Mr. Hoppe.
But the upgrade is vital, according to Mr. Plummer.
"The public does expect when they dial 911 in an emergency, somebody's going to come, and this is how we communicate with responders," Mr. Plummer said.

You have great intentions, but you don't follow through.
You tell yourself you want change, but you're too afraid to take action.
You want a passionate life, but you meet roadblocks at every turn.
At the heart of this failure to launch is a cluster of limiting beliefs and negative thoughts residing in your psyche and holding you back. You're really just one or two thoughts away from the ability to make many positive changes in your life.
When you learn to mentally and emotionally disengage from those thoughts, you will catapult your potential to do just about anything you want to do.
This may sound like an outlandish claim, but you have no idea of the power and control limiting beliefs have over you and how dramatically your life can change as a result of extinguishing them.
In fact, I'd be willing to bet 90% of your goals and dreams could be accomplished — if it weren't for limiting beliefs and the incredibly powerful feelings that fuel these beliefs.
You've nourished these feelings over many years through patterns of negative thinking, worry, and self-doubt. As a child and teenager, you likely experienced situations with your family and peers that impacted your confidence and self-esteem. You've had years for those thoughts and feelings to brew and percolate.
So much of who we are now and how we perceive the world is shaped by our early childhood experiences. This is particularly true when it comes to our beliefs about our potential for success and happiness, as well as our faith that we're deserving and capable of living a passionate life.
Even in the most stable families, as a child grows older, goes to school, and interacts with peers, the carefree passion that was once natural and easy is now tempered by social or peer expectations, subtle shaming, and criticisms. As a child moves into adolescence, he may begin to believe the negative feelings he has about himself.
Sometimes we aren't even conscious of our limiting beliefs around these early issues. We just respond in the way that feels automatic and safe, even if our beliefs and responses are severely limiting us.
Over time these beliefs carve deep grooves in your brain circuitry. The longer we hold on to a belief or fear, the more ingrained it is in our minds. Our adult lives have further added layers of responsibilities, stresses, and disappointments to foster limiting beliefs about ourselves.
Consider what life would be like if all of your ancient limiting beliefs simply disappeared. You are now a blank slate where all possibilities are valid options. There's nothing holding you back from being or trying anything.
Perhaps there was a time when certain things were true for you — or least felt true. Maybe you weren't the smartest or most popular. Your parents were critical or not supportive of your dreams. But you're an adult now. Your parents, teachers, and peers no longer make the rules.
They don't define you or your abilities. They have no real power over you anymore (unless, of course, you give it to them). You've done a lot of living, growing, and learning since then. Isn't it time to let go of your outdated beliefs and self-imposed limitations?
You can eliminate many limiting beliefs and manage others so they aren't as powerful or debilitating. As you cut the legs out from under these beliefs, they will begin to loosen their hold over you. Once you do this, you can reclaim the enthusiasm and energy to recreate your life.
- You will do things you never thought possible.
- You will take actions that make things happen.
- You will find passion in life and seize every opportunity.
- You will have the ability to push through fear to achieve big things.
To release limiting beliefs, you can't simply address the belief itself. You have to get at the root cause, the ancient history and the deeper feelings attached to the belief.
This doesn't necessarily mean you need years of therapy and navel gazing (although therapy is sometimes necessary for traumatic or deeply painful past events). You don't have to explore every dimension of your tortured childhood or your ruinous marriage.
You can begin by asking yourself a series of probing questions to unhinge your psyche from the beliefs holding you back and train your brain to see yourself in a different light. Go grab a pen and paper, and write down the answers to the following questions:
1. What is your most debilitating limiting belief?
We all have many limiting beliefs, but isolate one that really interferes with your growth or impacts your ability to take action. You don't feel good enough? You don't make enough money? You're not smart? You aren't pretty enough? You aren't lovable?
2. Why do you have this limiting belief?
This is a question you should ask until you run out of answers. Write down every reason you can think of, starting with the main one that probably occurred when you were small. Write these reasons down so you don't forget them.
3. What evidence do you have that undermines your limiting belief?
You might feel a certain way about yourself, but that doesn't make it true. And even if there were truth in the original belief and feelings, you have lived a lot of life since then. There are hundreds of reasons why you are smart, lovable, attractive, etc. Write those down too.
4. In what ways are you not fully alive and engaged in life?
How has your limiting belief held you back from the fullness and joy of life? Write down all of the possible situations you can think of.
5. How does it make you feel to have missed engaging in life in the ways you listed above?
Pay attention to the feelings you have knowing what life should be like for you and the ways your belief has prevented you from experiencing it fully. Write down your feelings.
6. What would you do with your life if you no longer had this limiting belief?
Imagine the belief disappeared instantly. How would this change your perceptions of what you can do and how you can change your life? What goals would you set for yourself?
7. Is there any current truth to this limiting belief?
What actual circumstances have happened in the last year or currently that support any truth in your limiting belief?
8. What can you do to correct or change the circumstances you listed in your answer to question 7?
Many of the negative events, problems, or perceived failures we encounter that support our limiting beliefs can be addressed and corrected allowing us to see we aren't so limited after all.
9. What is the situation or outcome you fear most tied to this limiting belief?
For example, you might fear being humiliated, rejected, unloved, etc. What is the worst thing that could happen if you take action to make change?
10. What do you think the odds are of the worst things happening?
If you release this limiting belief and take action on the things you would do with your life (as you answered in question 6), how likely is it that you would encounter the worst outcome?
11. How comfortable are you with the ambiguity of feeling fear and uncertainty but taking action anyway?
All change involves risk, even when you calculate the possible outcomes and odds. You must take risks in order to grow and create a better life. Can you get comfortable with the presence of ambiguity and uncertainty?
12. How is your limiting belief impacting your relationships now or in the past?
Often we compromise our relationships when we remain stuck in a false belief. Can you see how any of your close relationships have been impacted?
13. Would you be willing to write down your limiting belief on a small piece of paper and seal it in an envelope for a week?
Could you operate in your life by putting this belief "on hold" for a week and act "as if" it didn't exist? Write it down on a piece of paper and assign a number to it between 1-10, with 10 being "extremely limiting" and 1 being "not very limiting" based on how you feel about the belief now.
14. What is the most pressing or compelling goal you listed in your answer to question 6?
Of all of the things you've wanted to achieve but avoided due to your limiting belief, which one stands out as the first you'd like to work toward?
15. What are 3-5 small, manageable actions you could take on your goal this week while your limiting belief is sealed in an envelope?
Acting "as if" you have no limiting belief around your goal, create a few actions you will commit to take in the direction of your goal and write them on a calendar.
Now that your limiting belief is isolated, undermined, and locked in an envelope, use this time of freedom from the belief to take action. Commit to the actions you outlined and marked on your calendar.
You will likely see how taking these actions further loosens the grip of this belief. Open your envelop and assign a number to the belief again as you did in question 13. How has it changed for you?
Consider extending the envelope isolation time for your belief for another week of two, until the power of the belief is almost totally diminished. Or go through this exercise for another limiting belief.
Continue working through your limiting beliefs this way, addressing and undermining them and taking forward action in the direction of your dreams.
More Doable Than You Might Think: Support Yourself Independently Doing What You Love on The Web
For a limited time, get access to over 100 hours of video training, plus The Web's most active entrepreneurial community, for just $1.
Turning your skills and expertise into a way to support yourself is more doable than you might think.
There's this big misconception about expertise, that you have to be one of the world's top experts before you can earn a living from what you know.
But expertise isn't an absolute. You might only be a 3, on a scale of 1 to 10, but there are plenty of 1's and 2's out there who would pay for your knowledge and experience, right now.
The key is to find a unique corner of your topic, to start building a tribe of people who trust you as their expert, not the expert, and to be resourceful about filling in the gaps by leveraging other experts when necessary.
This is why we built Fizzle, to teach you how to support yourself independently doing what you love on The Web. Fizzle is half training library, half supportive community, and it's full of people like you who are building their thing online.
You'll find big name courses in Fizzle, from well known and successful online business builders. We're talking about courses like Book Yourself Solid (Michael Port), Start a Blog that Matters (Corbett Barr), and Connect With Anyone (Scott Dinsmore). And new courses are added every month.
And right now, you can get access to everything Fizzle offers, including the course library, the community, the live coaching sessions and the behind-the-scenes Founder Stories, all for just $1 for your first month.
Learn more and join Fizzle today for just $1 »
Since applying more and more from Fizzle, I've started making as much (sometimes more/month) from my online business as I do from my full-time job with a fraction of the weekly hours. It's exhilarating. I owe you guys so much.

P.S. — we hope you'll check Fizzle out, but we know it isn't for everyone. We're a little, um, different from your typical "business" training. Watch the video on the home page to see what I'm talking about. If it isn't your style, no hard feelings :)

|The Game Story:
| GORHAM, Maine - Senior midfielder Chad Tiger (Port Murray,
N.J.) netted five goals and added an assist to lead the Keene State
College Owls to a 17-4 triumph over the University of Southern Maine
Huskies in Little East Conference action on Saturday afternoon at the
Paula D. Hodgdon Field.
Triumphant in four straight games, the Owls improved to 8-2 overall and 3-0 in the LEC. Keene State returns to action on Wednesday when it entertains league-leading Eastern Connecticut. Southern Maine, which slipped to 2-6 and 0-2, will host UMass Boston on Tuesday.
Keene State jumped to a 3-0 lead through one quarter of play, and went up 5-0 early in the second period, before junior Dan Soule (South Portland, Maine) put the Huskies on the board with 8:35 remaining in the half. The teams traded goals over the remainder of the quarter and entered the break with Keene state holding a 7-3 advantage.
The Owls added four more in the third quarter, including a pair from Tiger, and scored six in the fourth quarter. Sophomore Sean Favreau (Sabattus, Maine) scored the Huskies lone goal of the second half with 9:10 remaining in the contest. Keene State received three goals from sophomore Ben Bradley (South Hadley, Mass.), and two goals each from Eric Momnie (South Windsor, Conn.), Meade McKay (Stratham, N.H.), Joe Calcagno (Mt. Lakes, N.J.) and Travis Pedley (Bow, N.H.). Momnie also added three assists, while Calcagno recorded a pair.
Southern Maine's remaining goal was scored by freshman Paul Dubiel (Billerica, Mass.), while senior Tobey Farrington (Scarborough, Maine) contributed three assists.
Sophomore Eric Delisle (Amherst, N.H.), made 16 saves for the Owls, while freshman Jeff Lamoureux (Walpole, Mass.) and sophomore Mark Morissette (Wales, Maine) combined to make 27 saves for the Huskies.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Oil futures closed below $70 per barrel Thursday for the first time in 14 months as fears that a global economic recession will slash demand for oil combined with three week's worth of rising U.S. crude and gasoline supplies to send prices lower for a third-straight session.
Prices for crude have now dropped 52.5% from the record high intraday level of $147.27 from July 11 of this year.
On Thursday, crude oil for November delivery fell $4.69, or 6.3%, to finish at $69.85 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. That was the lowest closing mark seen on Nymex since late August 2007.
It hit an intraday low of $68.57 a barrel in electronic trading on Globex after the supply data were released. That's the weakest intraday level for a front-month contract since late June 2007.
"The bottom line is that demand has dropped considerably, and ... reduced demand is putting a lot of pressure on the oil prices," said Charles Perry, president of energy-consulting firm Perry Management.
"This will continue until there is a reduction in supply," with that cut likely coming from members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, he said. "Then prices will remain stable until there is an improvement in the world economy."
On Wednesday, crude futures fell $4.09, or 5.2%, to close at $74.54 a barrel on Nymex. Prices have fallen in all but two trading sessions so far this month.
In Asia overnight, Japanese stocks got thrashed Thursday, sending the Nikkei 225 Average down by more than 11% for its worst single-day performance in more than two decades on fears of a U.S. recession and a global economic slowdown. See Asia Markets.
In the U.S., stock indexes climbed in a volatile session that also saw the Dow industrials yanked triple digits in both directions. See Market Snapshot.
A measure of economic activity in the Philadelphia region slid much more than expected. The Philly Fed diffusion index fell to negative 37.5 in October from positive 3.8 in September. See full story.
Data brew
On Thursday, the U.S. Energy Information Administration reported that crude and motor gasoline supplies each rose for a third week in a row, while distillate inventories fell for a seventh-straight week.
Crude supplies rose 5.6 million barrels for the week ended Oct. 10, to total 308.2 million barrels, according to the EIA. They're up 18 million barrels over the past three weeks, data showed.
The American Petroleum Institute posted a 2 million-barrel increase in crude stocks to 303.4 million.
Motor gasoline supplies climbed 7 million barrels to 193.8 million, the EIA reported. They're up a total of 15.1 million barrels in three weeks. The API said supplies of the fuel fell by 518,000 barrels in the latest week to 191.7 million.
And distillate stocks were down by 500,000 barrels to 122.1 million, according to the EIA. They've lost 10.2 million barrels in seven weeks.

Sean Patrick Maloney — 18th Congressional District
Sean Patrick Maloney has experience at all levels of government and was a key advisor to President Bill Clinton at the White House. Maloney was part of the team that created millions of jobs, ran a budget surplus, and protected Medicare by asking wealthier Americans to pay their fair share.
As a private attorney, Maloney has worked pro bono for tenants in disputes against their slumlords, and he was a strong proponent of marriage equality in New York.
If elected, Maloney will work to get the debt under control by cutting wasteful spending, ending the Bush tax cuts and closing special corporate tax loopholes — not by cutting the investments in education, job training and high-tech research that create jobs. And he will fight to protect a woman's right to choose and funding for women's health and to make sure insurance companies cannot charge higher premiums on the basis of gender.
