An underreported aspect of President Obama's recent decision to seek Congress's voice on punishing Assad's use of sarin gas is that it is the first time since George Washington that a president has chosen not to grab the greatest amount of power possible.
In his speech, the president revealed his thinking process as he considers Congress's clamor to have its say. It is as if he remembers that he believed the same as a member of the Senate. At this point he detours from the norm of past presidents and makes a principled decision to seek the support of the American people through their representatives in Congress.
This is a radical appeal to democracy. President Obama may still act even if Congress votes no if he either decides that the people are with him or if it is morally necessary. Going to Congress is not legally necessary. He is giving the people (through Congress), and indeed the whole world, the opportunity to do what is morally right. I wonder if we, as citizens of the world, have the maturity to know what that moral course is.

Track: New Hampshire Motor Speedway
Event: Sylvania 300
Date: Sunday, September 22
Time: 2 PM ET
TV/Radio: ESPN / PRN Radio / SiriusXM
Start: 28th
Finish: 40th (Accident)
Approaching lap 50 Sunday afternoon at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Bobby Labonte had made his way from 28th to 19th before his left rear tire blew out sending him into the retaining wall during the Sylvania 300. Labonte, who is recovering from three broken ribs due to a cycling accident, was treated and released from the infield care center as the JTG Daugherty Racing pit crew worked rapidly to repair the No. 47 BUSH'S Beans Toyota Camry in approximately a hundred laps. The 2000 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion returned to the track with a battered machine to be credited with a 40th-place finish in the 300-lap event after completing 161 laps. Matt Kenseth beat Kyle Busch for the victory.
"I feel good," Labonte said. "The left rear tire went down and the car hit the wall, but it didn't hit it that hard to hurt. I'm fine. I think the tire might have been going soft for a couple laps. I came off of the turn, got back in the gas and then I felt it go boom. I tried to get off the track as soon as I could because I didn't want to mess it up.
"My team did a great job of getting us back out there to pick up a few spots," continued Labonte. "The left rear just blew out on us. The car wasn't that bad before that happened. It started the race out really loose in and up off the corners, but we were trying to make some gains on it. It's a shame that happened. We had made our way up to 19th and probably were going to have a decent day."
"We didn't really get to see what we had," JTG Daugherty Racing competition director Bobby Hutchens said. "We cut down a tire and that pretty much ended our day unfortunately. We had to take a lot of laps behind the wall to repair the car enough for Bobby to be able to drive it. It is unfortunate our day ended that way."
"For how tore up the car was, we have a strong team that was able to get it fixed for Bobby," JTG Daugherty Racing co-owner Tad Geschickter said. "We had worked our way up to the top 20 and we were going to have a good day before the tire let go. It was so shredded it was hard to tell what happened there."

MarketBeat calculates consensus ratings using the most recent rating from each brokerage that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Since brokers often use different ratings systems, each rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings. Each stock's consensus rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0-1.5 = Sell, 1.5-2.5 = Hold, 2.5-3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months.MarketBeat will no longer include ratings and price target data in its consensus calculation if a broker drops coverage and MarketBeat has received a report that coverage was dropped. Ratings from certain research firms that issue ratings using purely quantitative methods (such as Zacks, Vetr and ValuEngine) are not included in consensus calculations. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.Ratings Breakdown: 3 Hold Ratings, 1 Buy RatingConsensus Rating:Hold (Score: 2.25)Consensus Price Target: $19.65 (0.00% downside) Analysts' Ratings History for Ixia (NASDAQ:XXIA) Show: Only the Most Recent Rating From Each Brokerage All Ratings For This Stock DateFirmActionRatingPrice TargetImpact on Share PriceDetails2/16/2017Stifel NicolausDowngradeBuy -> Hold$20.00 -> $19.65N/A1/31/2017GabelliDowngradeBuy -> HoldN/A1/30/2017WunderlichReiterated RatingBuy$19.00 -> $19.65N/A1/30/2017DA DavidsonDowngradeBuy -> Neutral$19.65N/A5/5/2016Jefferies Group LLCReiterated RatingHold$10.50N/A4/14/2016Deutsche Bank AGReiterated RatingHold$12.00N/A(Data available from 9/25/2015 forward) Earnings Earnings History for Ixia (NASDAQ:XXIA)Earnings History by Quarter for Ixia (NASDAQ XXIA)DateQuarterConsensus EstimateActual EPSRevenue EstimateActual RevenueRelease LinkConference CallDetails2/21/2017Q4 2016$0.18$0.21$127.24 million$128.20 millionViewN/A11/1/2016Q316$0.11$0.18$118.30 million$123.90 millionViewN/A8/2/2016Q216$0.07$0.18$114.12 million$120.10 millionViewN/A5/3/2016Q116$0.07$0.09$123.26 million$112.70 millionViewListen2/23/2016Q415$0.15$0.22$129.90 million$138.50 millionViewListen11/3/2015Q315$0.13$0.15$124.56 million$125.90 millionViewListen8/4/2015Q215$0.10$0.19$119.78 million$131.60 millionViewListen5/5/2015Q115$0.10$0.12$117.46 million$120.96 millionViewListen2/24/2015Q414$0.12$0.19$118.51 million$127.21 millionViewListen11/5/2014Q3$0.05$0.09$114.00 million$114.00 millionViewListen9/15/2014Q214$0.04$0.01$111.50 million$109.52 millionViewListen8/5/2014Q114$0.06$0.06$111.11 million$114.00 millionViewListen6/23/2014Q413$0.19$0.15$120.37 million$120.60 millionViewN/A10/29/2013Q313$0.17$0.18$114.97 million$115.40 millionViewListen7/30/2013Q2 2013$0.18$0.18$114.99 million$115.90 millionViewListen4/30/2013Q1 2013$0.22$0.25$122.41 million$122.80 millionViewListen2/6/2013Q4 2012$0.23$0.24$123.37 million$124.10 millionViewListen10/24/2012Q312$0.20$0.20$106.70 million$109.60 millionViewN/A7/26/2012$0.16$0.18ViewN/A4/19/2012$0.15$0.15ViewN/A2/2/2012$0.17$0.18ViewN/A10/20/2011$0.10$0.16ViewN/A7/21/2011$0.07$0.08ViewN/A4/21/2011$0.14$0.16ViewN/A2/3/2011$0.17$0.18ViewN/A(Data available from 1/1/2011 forward) Estimates Earnings Estimates for Ixia (NASDAQ:XXIA)2017 EPS Consensus Estimate: $0.572018 EPS Consensus Estimate: $0.67QuarterNumber of EstimatesLow EstimateHigh EstimateAverage EstimateQ1 20172$0.08$0.10$0.09Q2 20172$0.12$0.14$0.13Q3 20172$0.13$0.15$0.14Q4 20172$0.16$0.26$0.21Q1 20182$0.12$0.14$0.13Q2 20182$0.15$0.18$0.17Q3 20182$0.16$0.18$0.17Q4 20181$0.20$0.20$0.20(Data provided by Zacks Investment Research) Dividends Dividend History for Ixia (NASDAQ:XXIA)No dividend announcements for this company have been tracked by MarketBeat.com Insider Trades Insider Trading and Institutional Ownership History for Ixia (NASDAQ:XXIA)Insider Ownership Percentage: 24.40%Institutional Ownership Percentage: 63.59%Insider Trades by Quarter for Ixia (NASDAQ:XXIA)Transaction DateInsider NameTitleBuy/SellNumber of SharesAverage Share PriceTotal TransactionDetails3/9/2017Bethany MayerInsiderSell18,467$19.53$360,660.51 3/8/2017Alexander PepeCOOSell5,087$19.51$99,247.37 3/8/2017Brent T.

At the same time, however, the IMF extended a loan of $60 milllion to Haiti. It is highly concessionary, with no interest until end 2011, and a five and half year grace period. However, while the World Bank and IDB have offered money to Haiti in the form of grants, the IMF continues to use business as usual. Jubilee USA, who have long advocated for debt relief, released a statement that reads:
"The IMF is taking two steps forward and one step back. This is a precedent-setting moment as the IMF has agreed to use internal resources to cancel the debt of a country facing extraordinary need. But, unfortunately, this good news is undermined by the IMF's new loan. The role of the IMF in Haiti has been long criticized, and this new loan could set Haiti on the wrong path toward a new cycle of debt. The IMF must go further by using its new Post-Catastrophe Trust Fund to provide assistance on grant terms and ensure that this comes without harmful conditions," says [Eric] LeCompte [Executive Director of Jubilee USA Network].The IMF hopes that by committing Haiti to a solid macroeconomic path, donors will begin to distribute the billions in aid that had been pledged. This echos a report from the leading Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Richard Lugar, who released a report "Without Reform, No Return on Investment in Haiti." The Wall Street Journal reports:
The U.S. has promised to deliver more than $2.8 billion to Haiti, but in recent months concerns have grown among U.S. lawmakers that the money won't spur needed changes like direct foreign investment.Although the complete text of the IMF agreement is not yet available, the press release does note that the new program will include a partial credit guarantee fund, similar to the suggestion by the Senate report:
A main concern, according to the report, has to do with the difficulty of reconstructing Haiti's private sector.
The report suggests the establishment of a fund administered by Haitian and American bankers, underwritten with a U.S. government grant, to provide loans for private businesses.
Furthermore, improvements in infrastructure and the business environment will be essential to raise medium-term growth, by attracting private investment and expanding the export base. The establishment of a partial credit guarantee fund [PCGF] will help restart private sector credit.The PCGF is being developed by the IDB with the coordination of the "World Bank, the IFC [International Finance Corporation - an arm of the World Bank], the US Treasury and the IMF". More can be read about that program here. It is important to note that past structural adjustment programs supported by the IMF and World Bank had a detrimental effect on the role of the state in Haiti, and that these institutions have in years past withheld funds from the Haitian government (encouraging aid to go to NGO's instead) - even to the point of putting communities at risk of disease and undermining the Haitian state itself. As a percent of GDP, government revenue in Haiti (excluding grants) is lower than most African countries. In order to build a legitimate and functioning government, which is necessary for development, it is important that relief and reconstruction efforts are not seen solely as something being done by the international community, but by the Haitian government as well.

|538 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|4 nights
Amazing close proximity to the sea, views from every room, newly built apartment facing the sea. Contemporary design throughout. Your stress will melt away in paradise!
Unit 1: one bedroom with double bed (excellent view of the sea), open-floor plan fully equipped kitchen and dining area, bathroom with shower, outdoor shower on large balcony overlooking the sea and coastline, free WIFI, laundry facilities.
Designed to maximize the panoramic oceanfront view and tastefully blend into the seascape. Boasting the closest proximity to soul-soothing sea breezes and the famous waves marching down the point, both of which are natural remedies for the stress of modern living. Breathe in the fresh salty air and fall asleep to the waves rhythmically crashing on the shore.
Premier oceanfront location in picturesque village of Jardim Do Mar (Garden of the Sea) - solitude amidst pristine beauty.
We have FOUR separate apartments, and each are different sizes so please note that there is a range of prices - from 45 euros to 65 euros a night. They all have large balconies with an amazing panoramic oceanfront view!!
We came to Jardim Do Mar from the coastside south of San Francisco California, and we fell in love with the quaint small village from the start. The meandering waterways feeding every garden and vineyard, the cascading terraces of homes and gardens making their way to the sea. We bought our place and spent a few years to rebuild our dream home. Having always been people who appreciate nature and a simple lifestyle, we felt at home while we lived in Jardim Do Mar. Sadly we have had to move back to the San Francisco area, but we grew strong bonds with many locals. We will always have Jardim Do Mar in our hearts, and hopefully will return one day!
Very few homes have the feeling that the living space naturally blends into the seascape. Since leaving Jardim Do Mar (we lived in Unit 3 when we first finished it ), my wife has said she misses all the kisses! :) I would wake up and just be amazed at the sunrises that poke around the mountain to the left of our house. Then it would be the beautiful lines of waves marching down the point. Then it would be the rhythmic sound of the water trickling into the gardens next door. Then it would be the most amazing sunsets. Everything seems to be the way it should be, if you love natural beauty, modern amenities such as free WIFI, fully equipped kitchens, an organic garden.
When i first came to Jardim Do Mar, this was the specific property i wanted. It was an old fishermen house at that time, but it is situated perfectly to maximize views of sunrises, waves, the coastline, sunsets. AND it is uniquely sheltered from the predominant wind in winter which comes from the west northwest. All of the other oceanfront homes do not have this benefit! Other benefits - organic garden, fully equipped kitchens with large fridges, large oceanfront balconies, FREE WIFI in all 4 units.
Downpayment / Deposit required.
Key pick up with property manager
Additional pictures will be provided by email for each apartment unit.
Discount depending on length of stay.
If you are looking for a good "piece" of peace and tranquility, with romantic view, no TV, radio or other disturbing factors, than you HAVE to go to The Wave house. We stayed in UNIT 1, can't describe how much it meant to us, to have our own "patio" with outdoor shower! The "noise" of the waves calms you every night, and the spectacular view of the sunset on the horizon, is just something you can't wait to see at the end of every day. The only thing we "regret" is taking so much clothes with us, because we realized that this unit has its own washing machine, so we basically haven't got any problems with dirty clothes, and the second thing that we regret is not spending more time just resting on the patio and catching the sunlight. Instead, we just enjoyed our morning (breakfast) and evening (dinner and a glass of wine) routine there. All the rest was just wandering around this magnificent island. And a word about the staff as well: property manager Tozé - he was so nice and showed us everything, gave us some useful info's where to do the grocery, which beach is nice and which is the best wine :) And Susana, lady with which we communicate to for reservation - absolutely the best. And cleaning lady - she maintains cleanliness of the apartment so that we really felt like we are the first guests in the apartment :) The surrounding of Jardim do Mar is so peaceful, so generous, clean and nice, people are so kind and friendly... We wouldn't move there, because it is so perfect, that we want to keep this place for our every years "stress detox" vacation also in the future. A big thank you to everyone who made our staying in The Wave house so special.
Die Lage ist einfach traumhaft. Direkt an der autofreien Promenade und am Meer. Das Örtchen ist auch schnuckelig und in einer sehr sonnigen Ecke der Insel. Das einzige, was eventuell jemandem fehlen könnte, ist ein Fernseher. Sonst gibt es nichts zu meckern. Alles vorhanden und sehr sauber, sehr große Terrasse mit tollem Ausblick und nachts hört man nur das Wellenrauschen. Schön auch, dass man in diesem Ort mit nur einem kleinen Hotel und nur einzelnen Ferienwohnungen so mittendrin wohnt. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und uns wohl gefühlt.
Plus points:
We spent 3 night in the bottom apartment, the unobstructed view of the sea was wonderful. The patio has modern tiling and was spotless. We had a wind out full awning which was great when the sun got too hot. Its a really private patio, just lovely. The shower was quite powerful and hot. Nice big fridge and a portable fan which was necessary to cool the apartment at night. The village was lovely, must go to Joes for a meal, really good food
Minor Minus points:
Small glasses, no wine glasses, nothing large enough to put a Gin n Tonic in or a large glass of water
Pillows were awful, flat and very lumpy
Settee was tired and stained
The accommodations were the best...very modern, well furnished with an unobstructed view of the ocean. We loved going to bed to the sound of the waves and the beds were very comfortable. We had hot water, internet and a well equipped kitchen. You can take pictures from the balcony of the surfers on the waves. I highly recommend The Wave House. One of the best accommodations you will ever have in a magical place.
The location couldn't have been better. Unobstructed views of beautiful, blue water. The apartment was lovely, and had all the necessities to make for a pleasant stay. Tozé, the property manager, met us near the property and showed us around. He was very sweet and helpful. The only problem we had was that by the second day we no longer had hot water for bathing. Unfortunately, it wasn't fixed before we left the morning of the fourth day. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay.
I have spent many of my summer days in this house, or at least close to it, and I have to say it is one of the most relaxing but also thrilling places I have been, and if there were a market for a future sports psychologist in the area I would have no hesitation in moving there.
The combination of the magnificent waves just outside the window, the glorious mountains behind the house and the chilled out decor of the houses is second to none.
I found the waves to be some of the best in the world to surf and Kris a most gracious of hosts, very relaxed and a good laugh.
I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and would recommend anyone do the same.

When you arrive at the International Airport of Madiera (East Area) you are about 50 kilometers from Jardim do Mar (South-West, which is the warmest and sunniest area of Madeira). It is about an hour drive. You take the highway that will take you from the airport until Ribeira Brava. Then you continue in the so-called 'Express Road' (mainly by the sea and in tunnels) from Ribeira Brava until Estreito da Calheta. Here you find a kind of roundabout, get out to the right, keep in the round about, turn left and then cross the road carefully and take a 4 km road down to Jardim do Mar.
Best micro-climate on the island - never too hot, never too cold.
Friendly rural folk walking to and from their gardens make you feel you have traveled back in time where a slower pace of life is enjoyed.
We have surfboard rentals, surf tours or lesson, boat tours available and contacts for Jeep tours through the mountains, paragliding, levada hiking, or bird watching tours.
Quite a few ex-pats also call Jardim Do Mar home for at least the winter months.
Pedestrian cobblestone pathways lined with levadas (irrigation channels) meander past quaint homes overflowing with flowers and often separated by garden plots and vineyards providing leisure exploration and new discoveries each day of your stay.
Hike past terraced gardens and levadas climbing the mountainside leads to a BBQ area with a lovely vista overlooking this pristine coastline.
More adventurous hikers could carry on to Prazeres on the mountain plateau above and on through the waterfall gorge winding down to the picturesque fishing village of Paul Do Mar. If you time the low tide, one can continue the hike along the
cobblestone coastline skirting the colorful cliffs on the way back to Jardim Do Mar.
Surf the famous waves of Jardim Do Mar and Ponta Pequena, or sit back and enjoy their power and beauty.
Sunbath and swim at the port, enjoying some freshly picked lapas (limpets) or povo (octapus) at the cafe afterwards.
Joe's bar or the Portinha are perfect for drinking a cold beer or some village wine, while catching a football or rugby match.

The FAA has begun the process that could lead to rewriting the certification regulations for normal and transport category helicopters certified under Parts 27 and 29. On February 22 the FAA issued a request for public comment, due on or before May 23. Specifically, the FAA is seeking comments on whether it should revise the maximum weight and passenger seat capacity for helicopters in both categories and to make airworthiness standards "more efficient and adaptable to future technology." Currently helicopters with a maximum gross weight greater than 7,000 pounds or with 10 or more passenger seats must be certified under the more stringent transport category, Part 29. Last year the FAA denied Bell Helicopter's request for a Part 27 exemption to allow its 429 light twin to operate at weights between 7,001 and 7,500 pounds, although other countries have approved the 429 at the higher weight. Bell is appealing the FAA's decision. In its denial, the FAA noted that granting Bell's request could upset FAA/EASA regulatory "harmonization," but held open the possibility of revisiting Part 27 requirements.

How The Financial Sector is Dragging Down The SP and Pushing Up The VIX
The S&P 500 is a key index that is watched by the Institutional Investors. Why? Because, it is the best measure of the economy with its large companies that cover a nicely balanced, diverse group of market Sectors.
One of the most important sectors on the S&P 500 are the Financials and Banks which represent about 20% of the entire S&P 500. What happens on the banking sector has a large affect on the S&P's trending and movements.
So, this morning, we will answer the following questions:
1. How has the financially weighted S&P 500 moved in comparison to the
NASDAQ 100 this month?
2. Did the Banking Index drag down the S&P 500?
3. Is there a correlation with the VIX moving up and the Banking Index moving down?
Let's address our first question: How has the financially weighted S&P 500 moved in comparison to the NASDAQ 100 this month?
Below is the October charts for the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ 100. Looking at the chart, it is clear that the NASDAQ 100 has made a profit for investors, but the S&P 500 has lost money for investors. Let's move to question 2 and see why the S&P went down ...
Let's address our second question: Did the Banking Index drag down the S&P 500?
This chart shows the S&P 500 and the Banking Index overlapped. By quickly looking at the chart below, you can see how the Banking Index (with its 20% influence on the S&P), has dragged down the S&P 500. The largest influence to the S&P's down action has been the financials. Now, let's go to chart 3 ...
Let's address our last question: Is there a correlation with the VIX moving up and the Banking Index moving down?
Below is a chart with the Banking Index overlapped with the VIX (Volatility Index). The VIX goes opposite to the market, so it would have to move up to correlate with the Banking Index's move down. (The banking index symbol is $BKX)
Notice the correlation between the two. This is telling us that most of the market's fear right now, is centered around financial institutions and related credit/sub-prime problems.
In the next couple of days, watch and see the following: if the Banking Index moves up, will there be a corresponding down move in the VIX?
One last chart on the Banking Index ... This is the 5 year chart on the Banking Index. Note that it has broken its 5 year support line, and recently, it broke through a multi-month consolidation support.
This suggests that the Banking Index is going to continue to put pressure on the S&P 500 over the medium to longer term.
For those who are interested in what is happening on the Shanghai Index ...
Below is this morning's chart of the Shanghai Composite Index. The Shanghai Composite moved up 1.21% this morning and is back above the resistance line.
Warren Buffett is in China now. After touring some of their progress, he said that "their growth has made him a believer in their growth." However, he also said that wasn't a reflection on what was happening to their stocks. The Chinese are proud of what they are doing, and if they give a lot of play about Buffett's growth comments, that could spur investor enthusiasm in China in the next couple of days.
Note the red support line I drew on the Relative Strength this morning. It has tested the support three times so far. The Shanghai needs to hold this support to keep its current trajectory.

Clearing Your Energy
Max Highstein
This program includes: Important Information About Clearing 17:19 Guided Meditation for Clearing Your Energy 20:51 Music From The Guided Meditation 20:50 When you're feeling yucky -- whether for you that means sad, angry, fearful, guilty, hurt, or some other flavor of yuck -- it's like living under a dark cloud. You may have assumed that once the cloud sets in, there's nothing to do but hope and wait until you feel better. But that's not the case. Clearing is the process of releasing any kind of negativity around you or within you, and getting back to yourself. And once you know how to do it, there's nothing stopping you from giving yourself that clean refresh whenever you need to! The stuff we tend to accumulate and carry (fear, sadness, anger, etc.) is just that -- stuff! It's not you, but it can sure effect your mood and outlook. In this program, intuitive guide and teacher Max Highstein first explains the ins and outs of clearing, and then leads you through a guided meditation program you can use to clear your own energy at any time. Knowing how to clear your energy is a valuable skill you'll want to use again and again, and soon you'll wonder how you ever got along without it! From the Author, Max Highstein As someone who's prone to experiencing the whole gamut of human emotions during any given week, I've been interested in clearing for many years. I've had the good fortune to work with many talented healers and teachers, absorb their wisdom, and learn their techniques for clearing energy. In Clearing Your Energy I explain how we accumulate negative energy and how we can release it. Then I lead you through a 21 minute guided meditation practice for clearing that you can easily learn to do on your own. Use this program, and let me help you get actively involved in your own healing, clearing, and emotional freedom!

Executive Summary
Consumer lifecycle (related to appeal to limited demographics) is a factor with critical significance for the ability to retain consumers and sustain sales in categories across FMCG. This is particularly the case in meal kits or snacking options targeted at kids, where product relevance and appeal diminish into the teenage years. Therefore, growth opportunities can be cultivated with the correct implementation of "aging up" strategies to appeal to older demographics and their specific needs.
Key Findings
- Lunchables Uploaded highlights that opportunities can stem from aging up (or down) established products if the content and messaging are matched to the needs of different age groups. Products such as meal kits, beverages, personal care items, and packaging all have potential for tailoring appeal to age groups that fall outside the original target.
- Although the "Uploaded" tag could be described as a cliche in terms of trying to build teen appeal, the overall strategy clearly resonated with the intended audience. Uploaded also successfully conveyed secondary meanings in the form of the upsizing ("loading up") of the product and aging it up from kids to teens.
- The health trend has become the lynchpin of modern consumer market development in many areas. However, it is wise to remember that it is not a universal consideration. In the Lunchables Uploaded example, the criticism the brand receives on health grounds is washing over it because it is less relevant to target consumers and consumption occasions.
- Success: Lunchables Uploaded is part of Canadean's Successes and Failures research. It examines the details of and reasons behind the success of Oscar Mayer's teen-focused meal kits.
- It delivers the critical "what?", "why?", and "so what?" analysis to teach you crucial lessons that increase your chances of launching successful products.
Reasons To Buy
- Use Canadean's selection of successful and failed product launches and marketing campaigns from across the globe to inspire innovation.
- Reduce the risk of failure by learning from brands/products that have under-performed: failed innovation can severely impact profit and reputation.
- Understand the relevant consumer trends and attitudes that drive and support innovation success so you can tap into what is really impacting the industry.
- Gain a broader appreciation of the fast-moving consumer goods industry by gaining insights from both within and outside of your sector.
- Access valuable strategic take-outs to help direct future decision-making and inform new product development.

Dani Briscoe posted an update in the group Going to the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps 5 years, 1 month ago
Hi All,
Just been reading through this post as we're off to Spa for the first time this year – sorry to hear about all the craziness with TTE – hope you get it sorted.
Was wondering how full the campsites would be now and whether you can still just turn up on the Thursday afternoon / evening and find a pitch (2 cars / 2 tents)
Thanks and see you there!

This weekend's 'Drumcree Sunday' is set to follow the same pattern of the recent peaceful protests that have marked the annual Orange service – with the caveat that District Master Darryl Hewitt is calling for the 'heads' of the entire Parades Commission.
Mr Hewitt has insisted that the new commission is "not fit for purpose, having admitted it 'forgot' to call the customary pre-Drumcree meeting with the Portadown Orange District to at least discuss the issue".
He added, "This new commission is clueless. When we contacted them about this year's Drumcree and for the customary pre-event meeting, they said they had forgotten. But we won't be seeking any meeting with them. It's a waste of time. The commission, far from helping with shared space, is creating 'orange and green' areas in Northern Ireland."
The determination for Sunday is the same as it has been every Sunday since the Portadown District was barred in 1998 from returning back to Carleton Street Orange Hall via the Garvaghy Road.
Mr Hewitt added, "When the marching season is over, we will be in touch with the Secretary of State to stand down the current commission and replace them with people of substance who at least know something about the situation."
A spokesperson for the commission said they did not react to calls for the group to stand down – and the spokesperson refused to comment any further over last week's reversal of the Parkmount Lodge permission to hold a march and dedication ceremony at the arch at Victoria Terrace on Saturday night.
The commission had allowed the parade but after representations from the Garvaghy Road Residents Coalition (GRRC), the decision was reversed.
The commission spokesperson said, "Following a review of its determination, the commission has amended its original determination. This followed the receipt of fresh information, including representation on behalf of communities living in the immediate vicinity of the parade."
In the event, the members of Parkmount Lodge gathered peacefully at Shillington car park for which they were commended by Rev Ken Robinson, who said, "I was at Shillington's car park on Saturday night and was very impressed with the courage and dignity displayed by the local Orange leadership.
"They took what was a very difficult decision to call off the parade, but it was the right decision and I commend them for it. I hope that in the days and weeks to come that common sense and respect will flow from all sides so that the marching season passes off peacefully."
In a statement, Parkmount Arch Committee accused the Parades Commission of increasing tensions in the area due to its "backtrack".
"Some may see this as a climb-down. We see it as only the start of our fight to ensure that the Parkmount Arch is dedicated correctly," the statement added. "The arch committee is committed to getting the answers to our questions and will use every avenue open to us in this mission."
The SDLP's Dolores Kelly said, "As far as the GRRC is concerned, the Drumcree issue is settled." She said applications like last year's 'Orange Service in the Park', the Apprentice Boys' efforts to parade along Park Road and the march to the arch were "stunts by the loyal orders".

Simple question.
Perfect time to ask this question cdash lol
Why? Did he have a setback?
18.2 in 14 attempts in games he starts.
I'll say he'll start at 10 or so PPG for a while then start trending toward 18 or so. Assuming he plays at all.
I think 16ppg is right around where he'll end up when it's all said and done.
I'm curious to see how many people say 20pts+, since we're told that expectations need to be knocked down.
I hope he is back to form quickly. I see him getting back above 10ppg quickly this time thanks to Paul George opening up the game for him. Overall I wouldn't mind seeing Danny back to 19-20ppg all while Paul George doesn't go down at all, in fact it may improve him to have the floor spread thanks to the compliment of a shooter like DG that you have to pay attention to. I hope I'm right! I'm freakin excited to see how it all plays out.
DG needs 15 shots probably to get 19-20ppg. Somebody has to go down.
I say that Danny averages 12-14 PPG.
Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.
It could still work. I've seen numerous games where Bosh scores 20 Wade 25 and Lebron 32 (just throwing numbers) I don't see why West cant score 18 George score 20 and Granger score 18 like that consistently with good ball movement and the floor more spread out. I know there are a lot of factors out there that make a difference but I'm just saying. A fan can dream can't he?!?!?!
Roy is taking the exact same amount of that he took last season. 10.3 FGA per game. Also, he is still hitting his hook shot on a respectable rate (53.3%) so it's not like the plays that are drawn to him are wasted (not that we draw a lot of plays for him as only 52% of his baskets are assisted). He's just missing a lot of tip shots and lay-ups he should normally make as I explained in another post of mine.
David West is averaging 14.6 FGA so far this season. He averaged 10.8 FGA last season. He is 100% healthy now so it's logical that he averages more FGA than last year. But this jump is not only due to him being healthy. It's also due to us lacking scoring options. The daunted "West isos" as vnzla would say. We were indeed abusing this play. We went to West any time we struggled to score.
With Danny back, we could go to him when we struggled to score.
Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.
We really have no idea if he'll be 100% by the end of the season. I'll go out on a limb and say 19.2 leading the team in ppg with PG and West both closing in.
I'm more interested in wins than ppg.
Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.
15 or 16.
Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.
You figure Young, Green and Johnson average a combined 8.7 ppg on a combined 9 shots per game only shooting roughly 36% ( 106 of 307 combined). Thats 9 shots a game Danny will take add a few other shots taken from others easy to see him getting 13-15 looks a night.
Danny hits 6 or 7 of those 15 a couple of which are 3's , and 2 or3 ft's a night there is 16 to 18 ppg so I think he'll start slow but built up to the playoffs ( assuming he is healthy).
If he takes 15 shots then he'll get 18-20 points. Once he gets his conditioning anyway.

Think You Know Your School Colors? Probably Not
Today is South Dakota State University's 132nd birthday. The school was founded on this day in 1881. After mentioning that this morning, I made mention of the school colors: blue and gold. I was immediately called out for this because I should have known, as a former SDSU student, that the school colors are blue and yellow.
My mistake! I would agree that the color of Megan Waytashek's jersey in the photo above is yellow. But most of the college and pro sports teams who have yellow as a color call it gold. Probably because "gold" is a prettier sounding word than "yellow." But they all look yellow to me.
For example, the Minnesota Vikings are purple and gold, but the gold on Adrian Peterson's collar sure looks yellow to me.
Notre Dame sports gold as a color, but it's actually gold, not yellow.
The Green Bay Packers colors are green and gold. Again, looks like mustard on Aaron Rodgers' helmet to me.
Even my Alma mater, Black Hills State University, has the colors of green and gold. The jersey I wore back in the day had yellow on it, not gold, much like this one.
Are you as confused by this as I am? It gets worse. The University of South Dakota's colors are not red and white. What are they?
They are officially vermillion and white. But of course they are, USD is in Vermillion.
I apologize to the Jacks for getting your color wrong. I incorrectly assumed your colors did not have logical names. I was wrong. But to join the nonsense color trend I will suggest that SDSU change their colors to "Brookings blue" and "corn." Wait, corn is an uglier sounding word. Lets make it "maize" like Michigan's yellow.

I have a lot of lobster broth that I have to thaw because of an unfortunate mason jar incident. I would like to make lobster bisque with it, anyone can help me out with that??
The stock was made by taking the water in which the lobsters (3) were boiled and putting the carcasses back in the water and simmering them for a few hours. There's no additional flavoring.
My only knowledge of bisque is that it tasted wonderful when I had it in myrtle beach, pink, smooth and creamy!

National and state education policies continue to focus on improving learning by U.S. students. Policy goals include increasing student achievement overall, reducing disparities in performance among key subgroups of students, and moving the international ranking of U.S. students from the middle to the top over the next decade (The White House n.d.). STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) have been a strong focus of recent reform efforts, including developing common core standards across states, strengthening curricula, promoting advanced coursetaking, enhancing teacher quality, raising graduation requirements, and expanding technology use in education.
This chapter presents indicators of elementary and secondary mathematics and science education in the United States, drawing mainly on data from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) of the U.S. Department of Education. Table
The chapter begins by summarizing the most recent data on student achievement in mathematics and science, focusing on recent trends in student performance, changes in performance gaps, and the relative international standing of U.S. students.[1] It also includes new indicators of mathematics and science performance by students in charter schools, trends in mathematics achievement among very high-scoring students, and the results of an algebra assessment of ninth graders.
The chapter then focuses on mathematics and science coursetaking in high school. This edition includes new data on trends in total and advanced mathematics and science credits earned by high school graduates and enrollment in algebra before high school. It also discusses the "common core standards" effort and state participation in that effort, subjects new to this volume.
The chapter turns next to public school mathematics and science teachers, examining their educational attainment, licensure, experience, professional development, attrition, salaries, and working conditions. All teacher indicators in this chapter use the latest available data, which derive from the 2007–08 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS).
The chapter closes with indicators of students' transitions from secondary to postsecondary education—the subject of chapter 2 in this volume. Updated indicators include on-time high school graduation rates, immediate college enrollment rates, and international comparisons of high school graduation rates and postsecondary enrollment.
The chapter focuses primarily on overall patterns but also reports variation in access to educational resources by schools' minority concentration and poverty level and in student performance by sex, race/ethnicity, and family and school characteristics. Whenever a difference or change over time is cited in this chapter, it is statistically significant at the 0.05 probability level.[2]

As for having your users in a table in your application... You can do that, but not from the manage-users data.
This change to user management preserves all the old functionality of the old "user chooser" while adding some cool new functionality, like the table filtering/searching/sorting and the auto-suggest.
It should also remove that annoying "too many users to display" message, but only if you have a registered company (based off email domain).

How To Block And Filter Out Annoying Ads in Firefox
Are you annoyed by ridiculous ads that either pops up during browsing session or are displayed in almost all websites or blogs? Advertisements can be effective when they are relative and informative where users can actually get useful information about certain products but with ridiculous ads running all over in the website to generate profit is unacceptable. You may have received marketing messages while browsing either by pop ads or banner ads, despite these service details it gets annoying when random ads are bombarded in the middle of the browsing session. If you hate such kinds of ads, Firefox has a built-in pop up blocking feature. And to further block or filter out ads you can use Adblock plus.
Block Pop ups With Firefox Built-In Feature
Pop up windows can be blocked in Firefox that disables automatic image loading. By default it comes with this feature enables but if this setting has been changed, you can go to the menu bar, select Tools > Options > Content tab.
Check Block Pop-up windows and Load images automatically, if you don't want pop-up ads to load their images automatically. But if you find certain sites that displays ads relevant to your browsing sessions then you can add an exception by clicking on exception tab and add the relative web address in the list.
Filter Ads Through Adblock Plus
Adblock Plus is an extensive addon and is one of the sole reasons I use Firefox, it blocks banner ads and replaces them with a blank space so that you may never notice an ad was in that place ever. Once user install this extension, they can hover mouse around a web page and point to the banner or ad , right clicking on it and choose Adblock from the menu.
Users can choose a filter subscription. A filter subscription lets users download filters from certain locations on the internet or on their disk automatically. By doing this users can use the filters created by others which will block most of the advertisements completely.
Enjoy ad-free browsing and don't forget to send your comments and suggestions to us. Enjoy !

I need to write an essay on the theme of journey in The Grapes of Wrath. What could I specifically discuss?
- print Print
- list Cite
1 Answer
In one sense, the entire novel consists of journeys, and so writing about journey themes looks easier than it actually is. The main difficulty you'll have in your essay is deciding which aspects of the journeys in the novel you'll wish to cover.
One possibility would be focussing on the notion of physical vs. spiritual journey. You could focus on Jim Casy and see his journey, and eventual death, as parallel to the travels and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, with whom he shares initials.
Another possibility would be to focus on journey as loss. Just as much as a journey moves to a destination, it leaves something behind. For Granma and Grampa, whose connection with their land runs deep, the journey represents a loss of self; their displacement results in their death. You could address this theme in terms of bio-regionalism and eco-criticism.

Sutton, by J. R. Moehringer
In the prologue to Sutton, J. R. Moehringer (previously known for his memoir The Tender Bar) admits that the history in his novel about bank robber Willie "the Actor" Sutton is largely invented. In real life, Sutton was tight-lipped with the press, and when he did speak to them, he often fed them misinformation.
Normally, that would be a turn off for me and many other readers of historical fiction, but in this case the creation of a new identity is appropriate for the character: Sutton's success as a bank robber depended on the costumes and makeup that he used to get employees to open the doors to him when the bank was closed. Using that as his starting point, Moehringer plays with this idea of the false identity to great effect.
The story takes place on Christmas Day in 1969. Pardoned in a surprise, Sutton makes a deal with a newspaper for an exclusive. A cub reporter (it's Christmas and the veterans are home with their families) and a hippie photographer drive Willie around New York City, revisiting, in chronological order, all of the important places of his life. Starting with the Irish Brooklyn slums where Willie grew up, they visit the places where he met his friends, courted his first girl, the sites of his legitimate jobs, the jewelry stores and banks he robbed, and the places where he hid between thefts or after his many prison escapes. Even though Willie is seriously ill, he leads the younger men, who only want to know whether he was involved in the death of the man who last turned him in, on a sometimes merry, sometimes melancholy chase around the city.
Sutton is particularly devoted to Bess, the rich girl who he assumed was his ticket out of mediocrity, who ultimately inspired his life of crime. His devotion to her is the one constant in a life of blind alleys. One of the central questions in the book is whether her love is as steadfast as his.
While Willie is largely his creation, Moehringer captures the historical trappings of New York from the turn of the century to 1969 believably. The Sutton he portrays is tenacious and creative, a raconteur and an underdog. Willie is hard not to like despite his life of crime, but this is the tale of a man who has spent his entire life building new identities for himself, a man who may not even be able to separate his own truth from the legend anymore. You'll be kept guessing and happily surprised by the twists that the author reveals right down to the last page of the novel.
As a memoirist and a novelist, Moehringer has obviously thought long and hard about the notion of the created self, of the vagaries of memory and self image. Those ideas are at center stage in Sutton, and ultimately raise this historical fiction to a cut above. Your book group will have a good time trying to get to the bottom of the enigma that was Willie "the Actor" Sutton.

LBTL Challenge Day 1
In this hallenge, my daughters and I have to eat off 1.50 per day per person. Since 2 of my daughters are in school for two of those meals, I am taking $2 from that budget. So I have $5.50 per day to work with for a grand total of 27.50 for the whole 5 days.
For breakfast, we had Omelets.
Mine had 2 eggs, a slice of cheese and 1/4 of a Dollar Tree Keilbasa. Theirs had the same ecept that it was more of a scramble because with only two eggs, it was thin and hard to flip.
Willow snacked on a piece of cheese while she waited and I mindlessly handed it to her as well as my leftover soda from yesterday. So I had to add those into the tally. My total should be under 1.50 for the three of us and it did fall under that line as far as actual food goes, but I had to spend more to get the groceries.
Keilbasa Omelets:
Price paid / Amount used
4 eggs = $.99 / .33
3 cheese = $1.49 / .30
1/4 Keilbasa = $1 / .25
Dollar Tree Soda = $1 / .17
Total cost = $4.53 / $1.05 (.35 per person)
Budgetted money left: $22.97
My biggest challenge so far is going to be mindlessly handing over snacks and drinks. I do that a lot during the day and did twice already this morning.
Caught my daughter snacking on teddy grahams *sigh* Another dollar gone from the total budget.
Lunch was a package of ramen with broccoli and chicken breast. Total was $.85 for the meal, .28 per person. The ingredients cost me $3 to start with. Counting the teddy grahams, I have $18.97 for the rest of the week with lots of left overs.
For dinner, we had sealeg sandwiches. We used about 1/2 a package of imitation crab meat, some mayo and 4 pieces of bread. Total cost of it was $1.30 or .43 per person. The ingredieants cost $3.78, bringing my budget down to $15.19. I'm starting to get nervous :\ But I do still have a lot of ingredient leftovers for other things.
How is it going?
Is snacks really necessary to have everyday or even to buy?
Going good. Making a post about Day 2 now.
Quoting wandep:
How is it going?

Hudson -- Everyone knows their names -- Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight -- and their escape from abduction after nearly a decade of imprisonment in a house in Cleveland reminds women anyone can be a victim.
More than 175 women of all ages attended a self-defense class May 8 at Hudson Middle School aimed at educating how to fight off an attacker or abductor. Many were mothers and daughters.
The class was presented by Summit County Prosecutor Sherri Bevan Walsh and Lt. Chad Cunningham of the University of Akron Police Department. Summit County Sheriff Steve Barry and Officer Kevin Kabellar assisted, along with Hudson High School Resource Officer Mike Burchard
Burchard said students in Hudson feel safe, but other schools and especially campuses are not always safe, and women and girls need to learn how to defend themselves in a hostile environment.
"The reality is you need to know how to protect yourself," Burchard said.
Resident Joanne Knox attended with her daughter, Sarah, who is a junior at Ohio University. Sarah said she has been nervous while on the campus. She thought a man was following her one night but knows to look around and practices self-defense moves.
Hudson High School senior Francesca Bankovich interned at the Summit County prosecutor's office as part of her service learning class and helped to promote the event.
Women need to have common sense and learn how to defend themselves by attending a class like this, Francesca said.
Brandy Hollis of Hudson brought her niece, Natasha, a Hudson eighth-grader, to gain the confidence to protect herself.
Walsh said she has conducted self-defense classes for the elderly and last year she offered a class for women at Hudson's Barlow Community Center with approximately 53 women attending it.
She shared her personal experience as a young woman being grabbed by a serial rapist with a knife after getting into her car in Akron.
"I knew how to grab his hand, twist his fingers, kick and scream," Walsh said.
Walsh had taken self defense classes and practiced the moves, which is key to fighting off an attacker.
"There is no time to think," Walsh said. "You have to react quickly."
Walsh reminded the women to pay attention to their surroundings and minimize their chances of being a target.
"When someone is a victim of a crime, it is not their fault," Walsh reminded the women. "We don't blame the victim. It's the criminal's fault."
Cunningham taught screaming, breaking a wrist grab, kicking and other simple defense techniques that are easy to remember.
After instruction, the women and girls formed lines and practiced their moves on the instructors. They were encouraged to practice at home.
An attacker doesn't expect someone to fight back and surprise works best, Walsh said. Once free, run away.
A group of women wearing purple T-shirts were from the non-profit Victim Assistance Program, which ministers to victims of crimes and responds to crime scenes and hospitals. There website is www.victimassistanceprogram.org. Executive Director Leanne Graham helped to demonstrate how to break away if someone grabs your wrist or arm.
Hudson resident Carla Bankovich brought her 14-year-old daughter, Arianna to the class.
"I have one daughter going off to college and one going to high school next year," Bankovich said. "I want the girls to have some idea of self-defense moves."

WWE SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth - Entrance FAQ
WWE SMACKDOWN: SHUT YOUR MOUTH Entrance Listing FAQ by stefan gagne (email@example.com) If you're like me, you hate load times. That means you're not interested in sitting around previewing dozens of the available entrance animations in this game. So, I did it for you in this small FAQ. Keep it handy when brainstorming character ideas to save time! Odds are some of these entrances are meant to mimic existing proresu or WCW/ECW/Indie/Legendary wrestler entrances I don't know about. I'll update as I get information on them. A couple quick definitions before I start: T-Pose: Arms straight out in either direction. Y-Pose: Standard female pose, with hands facing upward. Car Intro: Like Fred Durst's auto in JBI. Video: The whole screen swaps over to your video for a time. If you selected no video it just uses generic crowd shots. --- ORIGINAL SOLO ENTRANCES --- 01: Exhausted (starts crouching and wheezing, staggers to ring) 02: Ballet intro (including slow mo jump into the ring) 03: Great Muta / "Mysterious" (airplane spin, stalking walk) 04: Goldberg intro (white sparks, spazzing out, etc) 05: Kung Fu intro from JBI 06: Jackass style shopping cart ride while waving; crashes into ring, falls out 07: Thriller zombie dance 08: Spiderman intro 09: Booker T gets blown up into the air by pyro, crashes ringside, collapses 10: Fred Durst's car ride intro (driver mimics arm motions) 11: Driven down in a car, no dancing (grasps rope, looks bad on short chars) 12: Rey Mysterio. Nuff said. 13: Steve Blackman (shaking hands loose, punching) 14: Yellow lighting, exorcist spider style (Voldo from Soul Calibur, too) walking under ring, looks bizarre. 15: Green lighting, sentai martial arts posing, pyro, more posing on turnbuckle 16: video, runs to the ring, poses both arms in the air. 17: Poses T, pyro, walks to ring adjusting armbands, one-knee pose in ring. 18: T-poses while rocking left and right, does a bit of posing in ring, rolls forward, poses on one knee. 19: Rides motorcycle to the ring, but doesn't loop around the ring, just parks it in front. A short version of Taker's entrance. 20: Womanly walk to ring, Y pose, kneels down puts finger in mouth. 21: Ordinary walking to the ring, then rubs head and twists around a moment (Keiji Mutoh?) 22: Driven to the ring (blows a kiss from the car), woman Y poses in ring 23: Brief video, Shane McMahon style bouncing and arm swinging. --- TAG TEAM ENTRANCES --- Original 1: Ballet Duet. Yikes. Original 2: Kung Fu Duel entrance (both partners crossover kick in the air... one falls, the other wins. Wild!) Original 3: Jackass intro; both ride down in shopping cart, which crashes. Partner #2 flies all the way over the ring. Original 4: Driven to the ring in the car, relaxing in the seats en route. Partner #1 rolls in, #2 climbs in, they stand around. Original 5: Both pose with pyro; P#2 doing a crane kick pose, P#1 on one knee. Walk to the ring, same pose. Kinda sentai, but not hyper. Original 6: Video for a long time, montage of DX poses, including crotch chops plus pyro! It's basically the DX intro, but there's no DX movie or music in the game, sadly. Might be fun with nWo imagery... --- TRIO ENTRANCES --- Original 1: Jackass intro again, but now THREE people in the cart... P#1 lands safely in the ring on his knees, the others ringside and over the ring. Original 2: Colored lighting everywhere... "Thriller" zombie dances on the stage, moonwalk to the ring, more zombie dance. ...yes, the entire team does this simulataneously. Creepy. Original 3: Car intro... third guy is sitting on the hood a bit effeminately (and does the Y pose in the ring). Original 4: All three pose, with pryo either side; it's like Tag Original 5, but with a third member. --- WWE WRESTLER ENTRANCES --- These are generic enough to re-use for your CAW. I skipped famous ones or ones otherwise too closely tied to their original character. A lot of them are clones of Maven's entrance, which is a completely generic walk to ring, slide under ropes, arms up pose on turnbuckle. Test, Jim Ross, Jerry Lawler, Hardcore Holly, Earl Hebner, Billy Kidman, Albert. Woman: Video, womanly walk to the ring, Y pose. Vince McMahon: Video, walks to the ring while trash talking with nose in the air. Torrie Wilson: Like woman, but more talking/smiling. Superstars: The most generic walk to the ring, stands and waits for opponent. Stephanie McMahon 1: Video, a generic women's entrance, but with no posing. (SM2 has more Stupid Steph Poses.) Stacey Keibler: Arena shots briefly, video, sashaying walk with hands on hips pose at one point while talking to crowd, long-leg step through ropes, Y pose. Shawn Stasiak: Talking to the sky a bit crazy-like as he walks to the ring, otherwise generic. Scotty 2 Hotty: Dancing intro; swaying camera, arm-swinging stepping to ring, posing on apron. Nicely done. Rico: Video, dusts off arms and brushes hair, series of effeminate poses in the ring. Could be good for a female CAW, too. Rhyno: Beats chest and hands in the air, then walks to ring; same pose on turnbuckle. Raven: Crucifixion pose (halfway between T and Y), walks to ring, same pose on turnbuckle. Randy Orton: Generic walk to the ring; hops on apron, hits the Lance Storm pose in the ring (hands clasped over head, arms <> style) Molly Holly: Video, feminine walk to the ring, Y pose, talks, hands on hips (a bit softer in motion than other women's intros) Mark Henry: Waves to crowd, walks to ring, looks around. Lita: Not as enrgetic as her JBI one; stands still and does hip-thrust wave poses, then a few on the ramp to the ring. Slide under, arm waves on turnbuckle. Lance Storm: Hits the Lance Storm pose (arms over head), walks to ring, same thing in the ring. Kevin Nash: Video, then the nWo black and white video effect - arms up, then walks to ring, steps over top rope, one arm up pose. (low camera angles) Jazz: Video, quick women's walk to the ring, hand on hip and stands there. Ivory: See Jazz. Possibly a bit more feminine on the walk phase. Faarooq: See Maven, but more flex on the arms in the turnbuckle pose. Earl Hebner: Generic. D-Von: Hand on his heart with other arm raised a bit as he walks, similar pose in the ring. Debra: Video, more swinging of the arms as she walks to the ring, Y pose, hand on hip and talking. Chuck: Video, brief skipping down the ramp, Y-ish flexing pose. Chris Benoit: Video, quick march to the ring while flexing neck, wanders around ring. Bradshaw: Arm singal to crowd, checks wrists, rolls into ring, horns-hand signal to crowd, climbs down. Albert: Camera swing to stage, arms up pose, generic walk, arms up pose in ring. --- GOT INFORMATION I DON'T? --- If you know what wrestler a particular original entrance is trying to mimic, e-mail me. Only if you're SURE of it, though. Thanks!

Nape-Gathered Knot
This nape-gathered knot features elements of old fashioned inspiration. Calling to mind the old-world chignon, the classic roll-up bun and the braided coils, this hairstyle combines these elements to create a unique look that is both simple in its silhouette and still visually captivating. The braids and coils are playful while the smooth-tucked roll at the nape says pure elegance.

(SIOUX CITY, Iowa) — Texas Gov. Rick Perry suggested Wednesday that he might come in as low as fourth place in the Iowa caucuses next month, but said that won't stop him from competing in other states.
"You'll still see me in New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida," Perry said of a fourth place finish during an interview on Fox News.
"Winning Iowa is obviously a help to anybody," Perry said. "You want to win here, but you don't have to."
Perry said voters in Iowa are the same as those in New Hampshire and South Carolina looking to meet the candidates up close and personal.
"They want to touch you, feel you and sniff on ya," Perry said.
Perry, who was endorsed by Sheriff Joe Arpaio in New Hampshire last month, was asked to comment on the Justice Department's finding that the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office violated the constitution and federal laws based on civil rights violations by engaging in discrimination against Latinos.
Perry offered little comment about the Justice Department's findings saying only that "people are out after Sheriff Joe." Exchange below:
"I don't know what all of the details are, but I do know this — that nothing surprises me out of this administration," Perry said. "I would suggest to you that these people are out after Sheriff Joe. He is tough, and again, when I'm president of the United States, you're not going to see me going after states like Arizona or Alabama, suing sovereign states for making decisions particularly because the federal government has been an abject failure at securing the border."

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
The sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats Dynamic Management Function is used to return information about the fragmentation levels, page counts, depth, number of levels, record counts, etc. about the indexes on your database instance. One row is returned for each level in a given index, which we will discuss more later. The function takes a total of 5 input parameters which are (1) database_id, (2) object_id, (3) index_id, (4) partition_number, and (5) the mode of the scan level that you would like to run. Let's use this function with our AdventureWorks2012 database to better illustrate the information it provides.
SELECT * FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats(db_id('AdventureWorks2012'), NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL)
As you can see from the result set, there is a lot of beneficial information returned from this DMF. The first couple of columns in the result set (database_id, object_id, index_id, partition_number, index_type_desc, alloc_unit_type_desc) are either self-explanatory or have been explained in our previous blog sessions so I will not go into detail about these at this time. The next column in the result set is the index_depth which represents how deep the index goes. For example, If we have a large index that contains 1 root page, 3 intermediate levels, and 1 leaf level, our index depth would be 5. The next column is the index_level which refers to what level (of the depth) a particular row is referring to. Next is probably one of the most beneficial columns in this result set, which is the avg_fragmentation_in_percent. This column shows you how fragmented a particular level of an index may be. Many people use this column within their index maintenance jobs to dynamically determine whether they should do REORG's or full REBUILD's of a given index. The fragment count represents the number of fragments in a leaf level while the avg_fragment_size_in_pages represents the number of pages in a fragment. The page_count column tells you how many pages are in a particular index level.
From my result set above, you see the the remaining columns all have NULL values. This is because I did not specify a 'mode' in my query and as a result it used the 'LIMITED' mode by default. The LIMITED mode is meant to be lightweight so it does collect information for every column in the result set. I will re-run my query again using the 'DETAILED' mode and you will see we now have results for these rows.
SELECT * FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats(db_id('AdventureWorks2012'), NULL, NULL, NULL, 'DETAILED')
From the remaining columns, you see we get even more detailed information such as how many records are in a particular index level (record_count). We have a column for ghost_record_count which represents the number of records that have been marked for deletion, but have not physically been removed by the background ghost cleanup process. We later see information on the MIN, MAX, and AVG record size in bytes. The forwarded_record_count column refers to records that have been updated and now no longer fit within the row on the page anymore and thus have to be moved. A forwarded record is left in the original location with a pointer to the new location. The last column in the result set is the compressed_page_count column which tells you how many pages in your index have been compressed.
This is a very powerful DMF that returns good information about the current indexes in your system. However, based on the mode you select, it could be a very resource intensive function so be careful with how you use it.

Japanese-inspired Brown Rice and Millet Casserole
Serves 6
3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
5 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded, caps thinly sliced
1 shallot, chopped
1-inch-long piece ginger, peeled, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup medium-grain brown rice
1/2 cup millet
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup mirin
3 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth
1 sweet potato, peeled, diced into 1-inch cubes
1 1/2 cups shelled edamame
1 1/2 cups jarred peeled chestnuts
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat; swirl in the sesame oil. Add mushrooms and shallot. Cook, stirring, until just beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Add ginger and garlic; cook, stirring, until aromatic, about 30 seconds.
2. Dump in the brown rice and millet. Stir to coat the grains in the fat and liquid. Pour in the soy sauce and mirin. As the liquid comes to a full boil, scrape up any browned bits that have stuck to the bottom of the pot.
3. Stir in the broth, sweet potato, edamame and chestnuts. Raise heat; heat to a simmer, stirring occasionally to keep the millet from sticking.
4. Cover; slide into the oven. Bake until the liquid has been absorbed and rice is tender, about 1 hour. Turn the oven off; leave covered pot in the oven to steam, 15 minutes.
