Saints suspend wide receiver
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- Wide receiver Albert Connell was suspended Monday for the New Orleans Saints' final four regular season games for conduct detrimental to the team.
The suspension begins with Monday night's home game against the St. Louis Rams. The Saints are not expected to bring back Connell if they qualify for the playoffs.
General manager Randy Mueller also announced Monday that the club fined Connell one additional game check.
"The situation with Albert will be handled internally, at this point he is suspended from the team," Mueller said. "Our team will move forward and not have any further comment on Albert Connell or his situation at this point."
Signed to a five-year contract as a free agent in the offseason to complement wide receiver Joe Horn, Connell has been a bust with the Saints, catching just 12 passes for 191 yards and two touchdowns this season.
Connell, 27, set career-highs with 62 catches for 1,132 yards and seven touchdowns in 1999 for the Washington Redskins. But when he was counted on to become the team's No. 1 receiver last season after Michael Westbrook suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week Two, Connell had just 39 catches for 762 yards and three touchdowns. Cornell was selected in the fourth round of the 1997 draft and has 150 catches for 2,673 yards.
Watters out with broken ankle
KIRKLAND, Wash, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- Five-time Pro Bowl running back Ricky Watters has probably played his last game with the Seattle Seahawks.
Coach Mike Holmgren confirmed on Monday that Watters has a broken right ankle and will miss the remainder of the season. He suffered the injury on his 28th carry in Seattle's 29-3 rout of the Dallas Cowboys Sunday.
Eligible for free agency in March, Watters will likely not re-sign with the Seahawks with young Shaun Alexander, a first-round pick in 2000, in the same backfield.
The 32-year-old Watters was the NFL's most durable back, starting 116 straight games. But the 2001 season was marred with injuries for Watters. A separated right shoulder suffered in a September 30 game at Oakland forced him to miss eight games.
Watters returned for a December 9 game against Denver and was moved back into a starting role ahead of Alexander for Sunday's win over Dallas and responded with 104 yards and a touchdown on 28 carries and five catches for 34 yards.
In five games this season, Watters rushed for 318 yards on 72 carries and caught 11 passes for 107 yards. A second-round pick of San Francisco in 1991, Watters has rushed for 10,643 yards and 78 touchdowns in 144 career games -- 142 starts. He also has 4,248 yards and 13 touchdowns receiving.
Indians sign Gutierrez to long contract
CLEVELAND, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- The Cleveland Indians signed free agent infielder Ricky Gutierrez and newly acquired outfielder Matt Lawton to long-term contracts Monday.
Gutierrez, the heir apparent to 12-time All-Star Roberto Alomar at second base, signed a three-year contract with a club option for the 2005 season.
One report said Gutierrez signed a three-year contract worth more than $11 million.
Acquired as part of last week's eight-player deal that sent Alomar to the New York Mets, Lawton signed a four-year contract that will keep him in Cleveland through the 2005 season.
With nine-time Gold Glove winner Omar Vizquel at shortstop, the Indians would likely start Gutierrez at second base. Gutierrez played his last two seasons at shortstop for the Chicago Cubs.
Last season, Gutierrez hit a career-high .290 with 10 homers and 66 RBI. He was made expendable in Chicago after the Cubs acquired shortstop Alex Gonzalez in trade from Toronto last week. Gutierrez, 31, will play for his first American League team. He also has played with the San Diego Padres (1993-94) and Houston Astros (1995-99).
Lawton was an All-Star just two seasons ago with Minnesota and fills Cleveland's need for a leadoff hitter. He was a bit of disappointment with New York, which acquired him at the trade deadline from the Minnesota Twins. In 151 combined games last season, Lawton batted .277 with 13 homers and 64 RBI.
Yankees sign Rondell White
NEW YORK, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- The New York Yankees signed free agent outfielder Rondell White to a two-year contract Monday.
ESPN reported last week that White agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal.
The 29-year-old White is one of the more talented offensive players in the game when healthy and joins an offense that already was bolstered by last week's signing of superstar slugger Jason Giambi. New York also returns All-Stars Derek Jeter, Jorge Posada and Bernie Williams and added veteran Robin Ventura.
After reaching the World Series for the fifth time in six seasons, the Yankees have targeted their offense as an area for improvement. The addition of White, who batted .307 with 17 homers and 50 RBI in 95 games last season for the Chicago Cubs, fills their need for a top of the lineup hitter and corner outfielder.
White can only contribute when he is in the lineup and injuries have plagued his career since he broke in with the Montreal Expos in 1993. He has played more than 138 games just once in his career and has played less than 114 in all but one season since Opening Day 1998. But when healthy, White hits for power and average, batting .270 with 28 homers, 82 RBI and 16 stolen bases in 1997 -- the only season he played more than 138 games. He has hit over .300 every year since 1997 but runs less due to injuries.
Arizona State QB to transfer
AMHERST, Mass., Dec. 17 (UPI) -- Arizona State quarterback Jeff Krohn, the top-rated passer in the Pac-10 Conference as a sophomore in 2001, will transfer to Division I-AA Massachusetts.
Krohn started the team's first 10 games before missing the season finale against UCLA on December 1 due to tendinitis in his throwing shoulder. Krohn has two years of eligibility remaining and will join the Minutemen for spring practice.
"We are very excited to have Jeff joining our football program," Massachusetts coach Mark Whipple said. "He has a great deal of experience after starting at Arizona State for the last two years. He also is a great leader, and a tremendously efficient passer. Jeff really has all the qualties we look for in a quarterback."
Krohn passed for 1,942 yards and 19 touchdowns to follow up a freshman campaign in which he threw for 1,751 yards and 12 scores in 10 games for Arizona State. The Phoenix native was the ninth-rated passer in the nation this season.
Bengals QB out with torn hamstring
CINCINNATI, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Akili Smith, making his first start of the season, suffered a torn left hamstring in the second quarter of Sunday's 15-14 loss to the New York Jets and may not even be ready to participate in minicamp next May if surgery is required.
A disappointment since being selected with the third overall pick in the 1999 draft, Smith will head to North Carolina on Tuesday for an examination by hamstring specialist Bill Garrett.
Smith was hoping to prove to the Bengals that he was worthy of being the starter after being demoted to third string behind Jon Kitna and Scott Mitchell earlier in the season.
Kitna, who beat out Smith for the starting job in training camp, was forced to play with a sprained right middle finger and was intercepted three times as the Bengals suffered their sixth straight loss.
Smith struggled throughout the 2000 season, completing 44 percent of his passes for 1,253 yards and three touchdowns with six interceptions before being benched. He played in seven games as a rookie, including four starts, and threw for 805 yards and two touchdowns with six interceptions.
Rams seek playoff clincher
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- A win Monday night by St. Louis over the New Orleans Saints means a lot, not only to the Rams but the San Francisco 49ers as well.
Both St. Louis (10-2) and San Francisco (10-3) would clinch a playoff berth if the Rams prevail as expected.
New Orleans has won three of the last four meetings from its NFC West rivals, including a 31-28 victory in the wild card round at the Superdome last December.
New Orleans (7-5) is a half-game ahead of Tampa Bay (7-6) for the third and final NFC wild card berth.
In the first meeting this season on Oct. 28 at St. Louis, the Saints intercepted Kurt Warner four times and erased an 18-point deficit in a 34-31 victory.
Meanwhile, in the AFC playoff picture, the Pittsburgh Steelers (11-2) and the Oakland Raiders (10-3) have clinched the Central and West division titles. In the AFC East, The Miami Dolphins (9-4) can clinch a playoff berth with a win Saturday against the New England Patriots and a loss by the Seattle Seahawks.
Culpepper to have surgery
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Dec. 17 (UPI) -- Minnesota quarterback Daunte Culpepper, who has missed the last two games, will have arthroscopic surgery on his injured left knee, probably this week.
Vikings Coach Dennis Green confirmed Monday that Culpepper would get "a small scope" and added,"It's not a big deal at all. But, whether or not it's a 10-day injury or a two-week injury, that's something you never know when you go in to scope a knee."
Built like a linebacker at 6-4, 260 pounds, Culpepper was forced to leave a Dec.2 game at Pittsburgh in the fourth quarter with soreness in the knee.
North Texas, CSU kickoff bowl games
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- North Texas and Colorado State kick off the 25-game 2001 college bowl season Tuesday night when they meet in the inaugural New Orleans Bowl at the Superdome.
The long bowl season winds up on Jan. 3 when Miami meets Nebraska in the Rose Bowl for a claim on the national championship.
For North Texas, it will mean an end to the longest current bowl drought of any Division 1-A team. And, it needed help from the NCAA to do it.
The Mean Green (5-6), which last played in the postseason in the 1959 Sun Bowl, already had wrapped up the Sun Belt Conference title and the automatic bowl berth before losing to Troy State in their season finale.
North Texas became the first team to take advantage of an NCAA waiver that allows a conference champion to play in a bowl game without the mandated six victories.
CSU is favored by two touchdowns.
Two other bowl games are on tap this week. No.25 Marshall (10-1) will play East Carolina (6-5) Wednesday in the Mobile Alabama Bowl. North Carolina State (7-4) faces Pittsburgh (6-5) Thursday in the re-birth of the Tangerine Bowl at Orlando, Fla.
U.S. Davis Cup opener set
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.. Dec. 17 (UPI) -- The United States will stage its first-round Davis Cup tie with Slovakia at the Myriad Center in Oklahoma City from February 8-10, 2002, the USTA announced Monday.
Pete Sampras and Andy Roddick are possible participants when the Americans begin their quest to claim their first Davis Cup since 1995. They are expected to face a Slovakian team that will include Dominik Hrbaty and Karol Kucera.
The USTA will lay down an indoor hard court at the Myriad Center, which will be reconfigured to seat 5,500 fans for the best-of-five match series. It is the first time Oklahoma will host a Davis Cup tie.
Sampras, who has played in Davis Cup sparingly since the Americans lost to Sweden in the 1997 final, told U.S. captain Patrick McEnroe that he is available for action in 2002.
Roddick, the 18-year-old who won three tournaments this past season, should be the team's anchor. Other candidates for next year's team are Jan-Michael Gambill, James Blake and veteran Todd Martin. The four-man squad Will be announced by Jan. 29.
Madrid's Figo gets soccer award
ZURICH, Switzerland, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- Real Madrid's Luis Figo Monday became the first Portuguese player to be named 2001 FIFA World Player of the Year.
England star and Liverpool top scorer Michael Owen earned the 2001 European Footballer of the Year honors, an award won by Figo last year.
Figo, a 29-year-old midfielder who last year finished second to Real Madrid teammate and French international Zinedine Zidane in the FIFA poll, bested England and Manchester United midfielder David Beckham and another club teammate, Spaniard striker Raul who finished third in the voting.
Figo scored six of Portugal's 33 goals during qualifying to propel the Iberian nation into the 2002 World Cup with a 7
3 record.
Hamilton, Nash NBA players of week
NEW YORK, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- Guards Richard Hamilton of the Washington Wizards and Steve Nash of the Dallas Mavericks were named Monday as the NBA Eastern and Western Conference Players of the Week.
Hamilton led the Wizards to a 4-0 week, averaging 28.5 points, 4.3 assists and 4.3 rebounds while shooting 55 percent (48-of-87) from the field. He had his best game of the week last Friday, scoring a season-high 34 points in a 96-80 victory over the New York Knicks.
Nash helped the Mavs post a 3-1 record for the week after averaging 26.5 points and 7.3 assists per contest. The Canadian point guard poured in a career-high 39 points, including 17 in the game's final six minutes in a 105-103 victory over Portland on Tuesday.
Mia Hamm soccer woman of the year
ZURICH, Switzerland, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- U.S. Women's National team star Mia Hamm Monday was named FIFA's inaugural World Women's Player of the Year Award.
The men's World Player of the Year, which has been awarded since 1991, was won by Portuguese midfielder Luis Figo.
Hamm received 154 points in voting by 72 women's national team coaches, to beat China's Sun Wen (79 pts) and U.S. teammate Tiffeny Milbrett (47 pts). Hamm, a five-time U.S. soccer Player of the Year, has 129 career goals for USA, by far the most ever for a woman or man in international competition. She led the Washington Freedom with six goals and 16 points.
Flyers get Brashear from Canucks
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 17 (UPI) -- The Philadelphia Flyers, looking to add toughness, acquired enforcer Donald Brashear from the Vancouver Canucks Monday for left wing Jan Hlavac and a draft pick.
Brashear, 29, has five goals, eight assists and 90 penalty minutes in 31 games this season. The 6-2, 225-pounder is tied for sixth in the NHL in time spent in the penalty box.
The Flyers also sent a 2002 third-round pick to Vancouver.
It was a short stay in Philadelphia for Hlavac, who was acquired by the Flyers as part of the deal that sent Eric Lindros to the New York Rangers on August 20. Hlavac, 25, was somewhat of a disappointment with the Flyers, collecting seven goals and three assists in 31 games. Last season, he had career highs of 28 goals and 36 assists in 64 games.
Brashear was the victim in one of the ugliest on-ice incidents in NHL history on Feb. 21, 2000, when he was slashed on the side of the head by Boston Bruins defenseman Marty McSorley. Brashear suffered a concussion that sidelined him for the rest of the season while McSorley received a one-year suspension and later was found guilty of assault. In October, Brashear made news off the ice, when he was charged with assault following a confrontation in the weight room of his townhouse complex.

Today you are five. I know every year we say it can't be possible that you are another year older but the days continue to slip by.
This year leading up to your birthday has been magical. It takes me back to my youth, remembering the countdown I use to have for my birthday. Every night this week you would ask, "how many more days now Mom?" We talked about how if you thought hard enough before you went to sleep maybe, just maybe, you would dream of the birthday party you were thinking of.
You are convinced you are going to be ten. I think you believe if you keep saying it enough, it will come true. I had told you I didn't want you to be ten yet and you responded with, "is that when I am old?"
You have been planning your birthday party for weeks, telling me, "Mom I have it all planned out, you just need to buy the stuff." I love that about you. Your will to dream big.
Every day there is something new added into the plans; a new must. The most recent addition to the celebration has been a trip to the zoo. After last year's meltdowns you are lucky we love you enough to take you back. Maybe this year it won't be so bad.
This is the last year before you start kindergarten, the last I have you all to myself. I love sharing our moments together; having our own inside jokes. You are my best friend. My littlest friend. Some days I think possibly you know me better than I know myself.
You have a love for life like no one else I have met. You are loving but also have such a sass about you, that I love. I know I should correct this but I hope you never lose your wit.
When you grow up you want to be a vet. Your love for animals reminds me of myself at your age. You would own ten cats if we would let you.
Everyone is your best friend. And as we walk up to school, with the little girls running saying, "Miss Alayna" to give you hugs, it makes me happy to know they feel the same.
You are the prettiest little girl but also the world's best burper. You love that you can out burp your brothers and proudly show your skills to anyone who will listen.
You love anything and everything girly. The more girly the better.
Youtube Vloggers and Shopkins are your recent obsessions. You could sit for hours watching people, making you laugh.
I love you so very much and hope your fifth year of life is the best yet.

Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in My Name, claiming I am the Christ, and will deceive many. (Matthew 24:4; 5 NIV)
A word about the religious, for the same thing holds good here adapted by the Deceiver to the realm in which he is working, the type of people with whom he is dealing, the religious. Yes, religiously deceived, to put it in another way, deceived by their very religiousness, and that is a very strong and a mighty delusion. There is power in that delusion that seems so often to defy every kind of attempt to deal with it. Deceived by religiousness. What more can be expected than the recognition of the fact of God and the giving to God of reverence, acknowledgment, and recognition: of taking active interest in things which relate to God, attending religious services, and being very busy in religious activities and interests, and finding your chief interest in religious things and the religious realm? What more can be expected? What is the matter with that?
Be patient, bear with me if I say with very great emphasis: that may be one colossal delusion. So often that very thing obscures one fundamental thing, a true living relationship with God. "Ye must be born again," and religion very often obscures that issue. Oh, religion is no argument for salvation. Religion can be found in the darkest places of the earth. Universally there is religion; depraved and very low in many places, but universally there is the consciousness of standing in relationship to some supreme object of worship, demanding worship; and then men's minds or imaginations get to work to give some kind of expression to that consciousness, of that supreme object of worship, and the imagination produces that something out of a tree, a stone, or in the heavenly bodies; somehow it is expressed, but it is the thing that is there, behind all the forms of expression which is universal. All the highly civilized forms of that brought into the realm of Christendom are only the same thing developed. It does not say that Christendom's more intelligent, civilized, educated interpretation of God, even though it gets its start from the Bible, is salvation. It may be a mighty delusion and very often is.

How to Care for a Maypop Vine
Maypop (Passiflora incarnata), also known as wild passion flower or passion vine, is a perennial that can add ornamental interest to a garden. This fast-spreading vine grows dark-green foliage, purple and pink flowers and oval-shaped fruit that can grow up to 3 inches in diameter. Maypop attracts hummingbirds and butterflies and can serve as ground cover or beautify walls, pergolas, gates or trellises.
Maypop can thrive in areas within U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 7B through 11. This climbing vine prefers a sunny to partial sunny location in the garden that offers protection from heavy winds. To avoid sunburn in areas with hot summers, grow maypop in a location that exposes it to the morning sun and shelters it from the hot afternoon sun. Provide the plant with a trellis, wall or other structure to climb on.
Soil and Fertilizer
When growing multiple maypops, space them about 36 to 60 inches apart. The vines can grow in a wide variety of soils ranging from clay to sandy as long as it drains well. A soil pH of 6.5 to 7.5 is ideal. Incorporate a 4-inch layer of compost into the native soil to help promote soil moisture retention. About six weeks after planting the maypops, feed them a 10-5-20 fertilizer and repeat the feeding about six weeks thereafter, applying about 3 pounds per plant.
Water and Mulch
Even though maypop vines are drought-tolerant, water them regularly for continuous flower and fruit growth. Keep the soil around the shallow roots of this plant consistently moist -- not soggy. Water the soil to a depth of about 2 inches. Avoid dry soil, because this may lead to premature fruit drop or shriveled fruit. Spread a 4-inch layer of organic mulch, such as wood chips, on the soil around the vines. The mulch helps the soil retain moisture longer and it suppresses weeds.
Pruning and Frost Protection
To control the growth of the maypop vine and to promote new growth, prune the plant. Use pruning shears to cut back unwanted growth and to remove weak growth. Prune maypops in early spring if you live in an area with cool winters, and prune them after harvest in areas with warm winters. Because the maypop doesn't tolerate frost, which kills its top growth, grow it as a container plant in cooler climates or grow the vines against a wall or in a patio.

With the new year comes our curiosity for things that have yet to unfold. Although we look at our horoscopes primarily for guidance, we can take inspiration from them to help us look our best. Revlon has teamed up with Female Network to give Aries girls their beauty horoscope for 2018. Read on!
ARIES, March 21 – April 19
Aries women are strong and ambitious. You're a born leader, so people are drawn to your energy, enthusiasm, and confidence. Back in school, you were probably the person people pointed to first when the teacher asked for a group leader, and not much has changed to this day: One look from your work teammates, and you already know you've been voted to steer the ship.
When it comes to work, you believe that being strong and steady wins the race—and you usually do. This trait, along with the ability to follow through with plans, make Aries women great entrepreneurs as well.
Whether your business is up-and-running or about to launch in 2018, you're already the ultimate girl boss. Make sure you look the part with a statement red lip. Keep the rest of your face fresh and fuss-free, then tie your hair into a sleek low pony to show everyone you mean business.
Layering different lipsticks creates colors you can't simply replicate, making you look like you have more lippies than you actually do. For this look, we layered a wine-colored metallic matte lipstick over a deep burgundy matte balm. The resulting shade is a wearable red that's neither too deep nor too bright.
Don't be afraid of mixing different shades of red! Pair your red lip with a printed wine-colored top and bright red tassel earrings.

What's Happening In Hip-Pop: Kelly Osbourne Quits "Fashion Police," Malik Yoba Talks Gay "Empire" Actor, & MORE!
Stefanie Keenan / Contributor
Following Guiliana Rancic's controversial comments about Zendaya, Fashion Police co-host Kelly Osbourne has quit the show. Reports say Osbourne's departure had nothing to do with Rancic's comments.

there are dvd players with usb port and vga monitor out
will a monitor run just on a portable hard drive? ? Answered
I am trying to make the monitor into a digital frame without a lot of work ?
Or you could use the DVD Player as a DigFrame by burning your pics to a DVD and letting the disc run. The beauty of this project is there are so many ways to do this and so many variables
A monitor just displays the image given to it by the computer. As UziMonkey said, a Hard Drive just stores data...a bunch of 1s and 0s. In order to display the images from the Hard Drive, you need a program to interface with the Hard Drive and be able to decode and display the image data. This then needs to be on Hardware that can interface with both the Hard Drive and the Monitor...the easiest solution being a computer. (I have seen very small form factors...such as this one: Whiskey Computer )
No. A hard drive just stores data. You need a computer of some sort to drive the display. The commercially available digital photo frames have a small embedded computer to do this for them. You can get a small Mini-ITX machine to do this for you, or gut a laptop or something.

Growth in Chinese investment and factory output slowed further last month as the government brought credit growth back to normal after a record lending spree in 2009 to counter the global financial crisis.
The figures, along with weaker retail sales, add to the picture of softening domestic demand painted on Tuesday by a sharp drop in import growth.
"Industrial output continued to ease, indicating a moderation of economic activities. But a sharp slowdown in economic growth can be ruled out, because resilient household consumption will help compensate for a drop in investment," said Zhu Baoliang, a researcher with the State Information Center, a government think tank in Beijing.
Annual factory output growth slowed to 13.4 percent last month from 13.7 percent in June but beat forecasts of a 13.2 percent rise.
Year-to-date growth in investment in fixed assets such as flats and factories in urban areas slowed to 24.9 percent from 25.5 percent, undershooting forecasts of a 25.2 percent rise.
However, after taking into account wholesale inflation, which dropped to 4.8 percent in the year to July from 6.4 percent in June, real growth on the month was steady, according to Ting Lu, an economist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
"China's growth is slowing, but we see no sign of a hard landing," he said.
"Too restictive"
Sheng Laiyun, a spokesman for the National Bureau of Statistics, which released the data, also struck a note of calm.
He described the slowdown as moderate and a welcome step to a more sustainable model of growth that relies less on energy-intensive heavy industry. China this week ordered the closure of more than 2,000 obsolete, fuel-guzzling factories, steel mills and cement works.
Some economists, though, were less sanguine.
Yu Song and Helen Qiao, economists at Goldman Sachs, pointed to a moderation in annual retail sales growth to 17.9 percent in July, from 18.3 percent in June, that fell short of projections of an 18.3 percent increase.
A slowdown in growth of money supply, the lubricant of every economy, was particularly alarming, they said in a note.
Annual growth in the broad M2 measure of money slowed to 17.6 percent from 18.5 percent in June, a rate that economists had expected to be repeated in July.
"We believe this level of broad money supply growth is clearly too restrictive as it will put more downward pressure on domestic demand growth in the near future," Yu and Qiao said.
There are also question marks next to overseas demand.
Although figures on Tuesday showed stronger-than-expected exports, the Federal Reserve warned overnight that the pace of the U.S. recovery had slowed.
China is also concerned about the fragility of demand from Europe, which is drowning in debt.
No relaxation
If growth does continue to soften, some economists believe the government could speed up targeted investments in areas such as low-income housing, rural development and clean energy.
Another option would be to relax this year's loan quota of 7.5 trillion yuan, down from a record 9.6 trillion last year.
Tao Wang, UBS's China economist, said there was no reason for a knee-jerk easing. "The slowdown is still moderate. If people were looking for policy relaxation, they would be disappointed from this set of numbers," she said.
New loans in July alone totalled 533 billion yuan, the central bank said, below forecasts of a 600 billion increase.
Zhu, the State Information Center researcher, said the government would not water down the full-year target.
"It will not relax efforts to control lending growth, even though the economy is slowing," he said.
Beijing is particularly anxious to take the air out of an inflated property market.
Fearing that prices were feeding on themselves, Beijing increased down payments and mortgage rates, made it tougher to buy multiple homes and tightened financing for developers.
The curbs are sapping demand for everything from steel to sofas. But apartment prices in major cities, while no longer rising, are still beyond the reach of ordinary people -- an incendiary issue for the ruling Communist party.
While the case for loosening policy is not clear-cut, the consensus is that Beijing has no cause to tighten either, even though inflation rose back above the government's 3 percent target in July.
Consumer price inflation accelerated to 3.3 percent, in line with forecasts, from 2.9 percent in the year to June, but economists said the jump was the fleeting result of widespread flooding across China that has boosted food costs.
Overall, economists are confident that gross domestic product growth for all of 2010 will beat last year's outcome of 9.1 percent and catapult China ahead of Japan as the world's second-largest economy after the United States -- a ranking that, by some calculations, it has already been secured.

Hello to everyone from our side, thank you so much for the overwhelming response, we promise that we won't disappoint you all. Before I start I want to give a small introduction of all the members working behind this story.
THE PLOT MAKER- AHELI GUHA (The entire credit goes to her, without her the story have not been possible)
WRITERS- HARIKA VADDADI and NILANJANA CHAKRABORTY
MONTAGE MAKERS- SWATHI NAYAK and KANIZ FATIMA
Shivay and Anika went to their room smiling thinking of Rudra's antics…but somehow they too were thinking of their special night and hence were getting a bit odd. Anika tried to avoid eye contact with Shivaay, while Shivaay tried to behave normal. They laid on bed turning in opposite direction, but very soon they turned towards eachother, and travelled to the same thoughts looking at each other.
After the marriage was done, Om-Ishana went to their room and Shivay-Anika to theirs. Shivay stood outside while Pinky completed some rituals inside. After Pinky went away Shivay entered and looked at Anika. She was sitting facing her back towards the door. Shivay went close to her and saw her pampering Tianshi. Tianshi was happily sleeping over her mother's lap while Anika was busy kissing on Tianshi's forehead. "An…Anika" he called her as she has perfectly splashed water over his plans. Anika looked up at Shivay and answered "Tianshi looks so cute while sleeping, just like you" and she looked back at Tianshi. "Tianshi will be there with us tonight?" Shivay asked terrified. "Yes Shivay… I so missed sleeping with my daughter, tonight I am not leaving the chance" she answered. "Anika ..come on… try to understand na… let Tianshi sleep with mom today, tomorrow she will sleep with us… please" Shivay said desperately looking at Anika. "Why Shivay?" Anika asked ever so innocently. Looking at this innocence Shivay took Tianshi in his hold and placed her on her baby bed.
He turned back at Anika and held her hand. "Because Tianshi's father has some other plans for his mother today" he said huskily and winked. He brushed her lips and was about to put his lips over her's when Tianshi started to cry. "Isse bhi abhi rona tha…" Shivay said sounding irritated yet cute while Anika smiled looking at his condition and went to calm Tianshi. Anika took up Tianshi in her hold and started to pat her back. Pinky knocked at the door to which Shivay opened the door. "Yes mom…" he said. "Anika beta… let Tianshi sleep with me today" Pinky smilingly said and took Tianshi in her hold. Tianshi slept again by then and cuddled to her grandmother. Pinky smiled looking at Anika and Shivay and said "now soon gift a brother or sister to Tianshi" Pinky said before leaving.
As soon Pinky went away with Tianshi, Shivay looked back at Anika. Her head was down and she was blushing hard. The butterflies gathered inside her stomach and started to dance in rythm. As he started to go close to her, she started to move back taking small steps. She sat back on the bed. He engulfed her in his arms and winked looking at her. She hid her face over his chest and smelled the masculine fragrance and looked up, he was already looking back at her with affection and love.
Without breaking the eye contact he went out of the room and made his way to the room upstairs attached to the terrace. He entered the room carrying her in his arms, with one soft push he opened the door and with the next soft push of his leg he locked the door behind. The click sound made Anika to look at the perfectly decorated room and most precisely the bed. The nice fragrance of orchid and rose was making the atmosphere warm. She asked him to put her down, while he pulled her much close towards him. She pinched him a little and he winced a little and carefully made her stand. She again took her time to look at everything with eyes wide open and then looked back at him and smiled as she asked "why is this room decorated Shivay?" He proudly looked back at her and answered "when everyone is busy making plans for our special night in our room, I with the help of Soumya decorated this room for us, I wanted everything to be perfect so that i can see love for me in your eyes"
She looked at him with love, exactly what he expected from her, while a lone tear tickled out of her eye. she wiped it and smiled. "I am not only lucky Shivay… I am blessed to get you" she said and made a bold move to kiss him on his cheek staring at him for a moment and turned back out of shy and nervousness at the same time. She hid her face with her palms as the blush warmed her cheeks up and turned back. He looked at her and slowly turned her towards him. Her chin pointed towards the door as her eyes were staring the floor. He made her walk few steps, she was standing over the way of roses and orchids that directed towards the bed. She always dreamt of everything perfect in her marriage but never expected everything beyond perfect. Her expectations exceeded as now everything was beyond her imagination.
"Anika…" he took her name so soft that each letters of her name evoked her sensuality. He softly made her chin up and her eyes fell on his, he continued "today I want to ask something ,which only you can fulfill." she looked at him for few seconds and spoke "I will give you everything that belongs only to me till now. I will love you and get loved from you, I will complete us" she spoke as she perfectly knew the meaning of his sentence and to what he wanted to ask. He looked at her with pride as he knew she understands him without any words. They shared an eyelock as the water droplets of heaven touched the terrace floor making soft sounds. His index finger traced the curves of her face as his thumb brushed her lips slow. Her lips shivered with his touch and she gulped the saliva down her throat as goosebumps emerged on her body. Her eyes were closed, he took the chance and placed his lips over her eye and continued to other. She opened her eyes and looked at him, her eyes turned deepest shade of brown. She held his collar and lifted her toe up and slowly took his lower lip in the hollow of her lips. He pulled her close and started to reciprocate the love. The monsoon sound started heating them more as the two souls poured tons of love in that one kiss. They parted to inhale the fragrance of the wet soil but their eyes never left staring at eachother. After few seconds he again pulled her into a kiss and started to caress her lips.
He unpinned her veil and placed it on the chair beside. He kissed over her maangteeka and softly freed her from the maangteeka and kissed over her hair partition that had the sign of their relation, the vermilion. He caressed the spot and held her tied up hairs in a firm grip. He unpinned the bun and her hair rolled down. He rubbed his cheek on her cheek and pressed her waist, goosebumps errupted over her skin and her breath became uneven. Her chest falling up and down and getting rubbed sensuously over his chest. He pressed her waist more and the soft sound came out of her mouth "Shivay…" the exact form he wanted to hear at the moment. He bent his neck and placed a kiss over her earlobe and opened her earrings one by one after kissing them as his prized possession. He rubbed his thumb down her jawline slowly holding her neck in his hand. She clutched his collar more and bit her lower lip to suppress the next sound but it came out as he dropped a kiss over the junction of neck and shoulder making her eyes blur due to the pleasure. He freed her from my necklace adorning her neck and held the mangalsutra lightly between his fingers, he looked at her and she blushed. "You are mine" he whispered and kissed her mangalsutra and his lips brushed over her skin. The touch made her to throw back her head with a slight moan.
He held her hands and dropped kisses over her knuckles as he went up slowly kissing her hand over the dress. His hands traced the skin of her neck as they reached on her hooks. She closed her eyes and he freed her from the upper barriers not taking eyes off her. she looked down out of shy and he made her to look into his eyes and placed her hands over his sherwani. She took his lips to savour the taste once again before she started to free him from his sherwani. The clothes landed over each other in rythm. Her body perfectly fitted in his hold as they got lost in each other. He took his time and placed his lips over her skin. Her skin shivered with each of his touch and made him proud of the effect he has on her. She changed the position and came on top of him and kissed every part visible until she reached the downline and looked up in his eyes. He was looking back at her and pulled her up and placed his lips over her lips and again changed their position. She turned around facing her back to him. He went close to her skin and held back his lips while his breath made her warm slowly very slowly. His hand traversed to the clip and he unclipped her. Her body immediately reacted to his action and the goosebumps took their place again. When he turned to see her what he saw amazed him as she was perfect in every way. She lowered her gaze and hid her asset as he moved close to see everything only he and his infant has the right to.
The rain outside was making him hungry and he indulged to feast the source in front of him. As the earthworms were digging the land due to rain, she was digging her nails in him. Though his hunger didn't subside yet he knew he had to be half filled, as there was much to explore and feast on. As the rain water was travelling to every nook and corner of visible and invisible places making it wet, he was also travelling to every visible and invisible curves of her making them wet. With his every movement her moans only did increase. It was in sync with the monsoon pours. As the monsoon made the surroundings cold, their deeds were making them grow hot gradually. The love poured in slowly . He looked at her eyes and as the rain rubs the field after touching it, he did the same too before removing the last barrier. As the rain started to open the bud of the plant he opened the untouched bud of her . The way rain made the bud moist making it ooze the rain water, she too went moist all over oozing. Her hazy eyes and his heating sight met as he was nearing her very close. As the honeybee which set out to fetch the nectar to please her queenfrom the freshly opened bud in the rain , he too sucked her nectar to please his queen.
The moans equated the lightning sound and this was just an indication of the upcoming tsunami. She removed his last cover of modesty and this time she was struck seeing him. A gasp released as she was petrified. She looked away as a smile appeared on his lips and he made her touch him to wipe her fears. As everything rejoices after the magical touch of rain, he too rejoiced. As the root grows to absorb water, he too grew to absorb the wetness around. As the field gets ready to take the seeds for harvest, they both got ready. The shaft went inside and pulled back and the process continued. The barren field started to pound around the shaft. As the farmer digs the plough enough deep to make it ready to sow the seeds, he digged her with proper strokes. As the water from waterfalls has no looking back , they too had no looking back. The intensity was reaching its peak, the same way water from waterfalls were to touch the waterbody with intensity. Unable to bear any further delay, they came together in a similar way a peacock comes watching the rain. The surroundings danced and the nature rejoiced looking at the union. Two souls becoming one. Love making way through every corner of their body and the night gradually shifted to dawn as their love conquered everything.
They consummated their marriage and took their relationship forward where there was only pure love and trust for each other.

I am so excited to be one of My Sister's Tee newest brand rep! I love the concept behind the company My Sister's Tee. There is so much negative in this world that sometimes it's hard to feel positive, hopeful and happy. I find myself in that situation often and have to remind myself that there is so so much to be grateful for and happy about! I AM a lover of life. Yes, I do get upset and sad sometimes and that is normal. However, I want to love life and everything about. Embrace the bad days and love the good ones! So this tee is perfect. I also love the concept behind uplifting one another. Sometimes as women it can be hard to not feel jealous or compare ourselves to other women around us. Especially when it comes to social media of all kinds. It can make us feel negative towards people who seem to have more than us or those beautiful perfect lives. What we really need to do is encourage each other, uplift each other, be happy for one another and our accomplishments.
So let's just love life and love each other. Doesn't that sound a lot happier anyways?! It sure does to me! I am making this one of my goals to work on!
Happy Monday and stay tuned for the latest and greatest from My Sister's Tee because I will be sharing when they have sales and discounts for all you lovely readers!


text: An angry doctor's plea: Stop bickering and fix the ObamaCare mess By Dr. Kevin Campbell Published March 06, 2017 FoxNews.com Facebook Twitter livefyre Email One of the biggest issues of the 2016 election was the state of health care in the U.S. Republicans ran on a platform of repealing and replacing a failing ObamaCare system. Democrats touted ObamaCare as an overwhelming success. Neither party has really addressed the issues surrounding the law—patients are experiencing higher costs, diminished access and poorer quality care. I waited to see what the first days of the new Congress would bring—would our lawmakers actually deliver on their campaign promises? I have seen my patients go without medicines, miss important preventative care milestones and struggle to find access to high quality care. Copayments continue to increase—deductibles are rising (more than $12,000 in some cases) to the point where an average family simply cannot utilize insurance except in catastrophic circumstances. I have seen my patients go without medicines, miss important preventative care milestones and struggle to find access to high quality care. ... I am tired of watching and waiting for the Washington elite to do their jobs. Now I am angry. I am tired of watching and waiting for the Washington elite to do their jobs—So far its just more of the same with a different group in charge. Rather than advocating for patients and putting patients first we are seeing just the opposite. Lawmakers on both sides are putting their OWN interests ahead of the health of the American people. Money, special interest groups and concerns over re-election (as well as power moves within Congress) dominate the thinking in Washington. We have seen press conferences and heard promises. Instead of acting quickly, lawmakers took a week long vacation. Currently, we see each party circling the wagons and digging in without any interest in compromise—leaving millions of Americans without any type of legitimate health care. The status quo is no longer acceptable. As a physician, I am fed up and angry. My job is to heal and to PREVENT disease. I can no longer do my job with the government sticking its large (and quite ignorant) nose into my exam room or operating suite. Most of our current health care regulations were crafted by non-physicians--by those who have the financial resources to obtain health care anywhere and anytime they want it. Interestingly, while the ACA was touted by Democrats as a great success, Congress voted to exempt themselves from purchasing ObamaCare. It's now time to act. Congress would be wise to listen to both doctors and patients as they move to fix our broken system. Doctors as well as patients must work to get their health care back—government intrusion has increased paperwork, increased cost, diminished efficiency and limited quality. The escalating costs of ObamaCare have resulted in the exit of numerous major insurance companies and the uncertainty surrounding the ACA has served to significantly destabilize the insurance market. So, Where Do We Stand? The Republicans: While Republican lawmakers produced legislation during Obama's presidency they have done little since that time. A 2015 repeal bill was vetoed by then President Obama in early 2016 during his second term. Remarkably, even though they have had eight years to construct a viable replacement, few solid details on a new health care plan have been made available—even though the Republicans control both houses of Congress as well as the White House. Within the Party, there are also fractures—more conservative groups within the Republican Party are pushing back on the replacement plans put forward by Speaker Paul Ryan and other leaders. These groups are opposed to the continuance of Medicaid as well as refundable tax credits to help consumers pay for health care. In addition, many factions within the party are refusing to back any legislation that fails to defund Planned Parenthood. Special interest groups, including Americans for Prosperity, are exerting significant influence in the process—including running a television ad campaign opposing the Ryan backed repeal and replace health care plan. The dissent within the Party will create a situation where the Republicans will not only be fighting against Democratic lawmakers they will also be fighting among themselves—and ultimately putting the health of the American people at risk The Democrats: Democrats have long believed that government regulation of health care will be the answer for increased accessibility and improved care for all Americans. ObamaCare—while expanding coverage for millions of Americans ON PAPER—has, in reality, done next to nothing to improve health care in the United States. Insurers have pulled out in many counties across the country leaving many areas with only ONE choice for a health care plan. Back in the 1920s, this was called a monopoly. Democratic Party leaders in Congress have made it clear that they will not compromise on health care and that they are unwilling to work to address the mounting problems with the ACA. When the ACA was initially crafted and passed in Congress, it was done without a single Republican voice. In fact, Republicans were unable to even see the thousands of pages of legislation until 30 days before the vote. Congressional leaders such as Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi would not allow debate or discussion. Ultimately the law was passed and signed by the president and thus began the destruction of modern medicine. Today, Democrats complain that they are not being included in the discussions surrounding a health care law overhaul but have made it clear that they will not work to craft a compromise bill. Democrats contend that we must continue to provide health care subsidies and costly programs such as Medicaid without addressing issues of access and cost. In addition, Democrats such as Nancy Pelosi continue to believe that ObamaCare actually works—which demonstrates the profound disconnect between the Washington elite and the average American. What about the Patients? Patients are caught in the middle of the ObamaCare debate. Many are losing insurance due to high costs and others are finding little continuity of care as more physicians are no longer found "in network." In my practice, I have seen patients who have to choose whether or not they will attend a visit with their specialist or their family doctor due to the inability to afford multiple copayments. Patients are not getting the time and attention that they need when they do come to the office for a visit. Increasing non-clinical demands have been placed on doctors and, according to one study from the Annals of Internal Medicinefrom 2016, only 27 percent of an office visit is spent actually talking to a patient (i.e.: direct face to face communication and care)—the rest of the time is consumed with government mandated electronic paperwork. Health care systems now put an emphasis on billing and charge capture rather than on the health of their patients. While physician numbers are static, the rise of hospital and practice administrators has risen nearly 3,000 percent. The sanctity of the doctor patient relationship is now at risk. The long-term bond between doctor and patient has been shown to improve health outcomes but is no longer the centerpiece of care. Patients are frustrated—as are health care providers—and we continue to tread water without advancing care. What MUST happen NOW? We must demand action in Washington. It is no longer acceptable to allow lawmakers to behave like toddlers fighting over a toy when it comes to our health care. It is time for those in Washington to be held accountable for their campaign promises. It's time to end political positioning and inter (as well as intra) party squabbling and PUT PATIENTS FIRST. We can no longer tolerate the childish behavior of those in Congress. As a physician I believe it is critical that Congress involve physicians (not groups like the American Medical Association or AMA who CLAIM to represent us) as well as actual patients in the development of a new health care law that will provide effective care for all Americans. WE must change the focus of American medicine to PREVENTION of disease on the front end rather than spend trillions of dollars on the TREATMENT of disease on the back end. I encourage all Americans to reach out to their representatives in Congress and demand actual action on health care. Use social media to and help advocate for change by using the new hashtag #PutPatientsFirst when posting. Through individual action we can bring about global change! Dr. Kevin Campbell is an assistant Professor of Medicine, Division of Cardiology, University of North Carolina and President, K-Roc Consulting LLC. S

Darla Young in Carthage, Arkansas, caught this meteor on May 6, 2016, the peak morning of last week's Eta Aquarid meteor shower. The peak has passed, but Earth is still traveling through a stream of debris in space left behind by the famous Comet Halley. Although the meteors are declining in numbers now, you might still see some if you look outside before dawn.
Thank you, Darla!

Gilt Groupe's New Live Stream Allows Shoppers to Spy on What Others Are Buying
Curious what other people are buying?
A new feature called Gilt Live is launching today on Gilt.com, the New York-based flash sales site for women's and men's apparel — it lets you spy, in real time, on other people's carts (anonymously, of course).
The feature enables members of the site to see a livestream of what is being purchased at that exact moment.
Admittedly, the concept is not earth-shattering, but it offers a fun new way to shop — and can be very mesmerizing.
Originally, flash sales sites offered a small selection of items, making it easy to see everything on sale. But as the sites have become more mainstream, Gilt and others have increased their inventory, making it more difficult to quickly see everything for sale.
Gilt Live brings back some some of the spontaneity of the flash sales shopping experience. Instead of clicking through a multitude of menus and browsing categories on the site to see if anything is of interest, the live option provides a stream of product images flowing down your screen — about 130 unique items per minute.
One second, you may see men's boxer briefs; the next minute, it could be a pair woman's jeans — and then, finally, your eye catches the perfect swimsuit. Or not.
While I don't believe it was intentional, Gilt Live is a bit like Pinterest, where users are inadvertently "pinning" their favorite items to the page by simply making purchases. It's also similar to a feature on Fab.com called Feed, which shows a list of things bought or liked by people around the Web (but it has to be manually refreshed).
If the person watching the stream would like to buy the product, all they have to do is click on the image. Additionally, users will be able to pause and resume the flow in case they want more time to view the products. People watching the live feed can choose to see everything that is currently being purchased, or filter it by one of four categories: Women, men, babies and kids or home.
Gilt Live can be accessed at live.gilt.com. It will also also appear as a tab on the main page.
Gilt has launched a number of cool, yet somewhat frivolous innovations. For example, its food division, Gilt Taste, recently released a free iPad app that allows you to turn the pages of the recipe without touching the screen — to avoid mucking up your high-end tablet.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday vehemently objected to a motion to stall the ongoing trial of Muhammad Belgore, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN, before Justice Rilwan Aikawa of the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos.
Belgore, a governorship candidate during the 2011 Kwara State gubernatorial election, is standing trial alongside Prof. Abubakar Sulaiman, a former Minister for National Planning, for allegedly receiving the sum of N450 million on March 27, 2015 out of the $115,010,000 paid into a new generation bank by a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Allison-Madueke.
At the resumed hearing today, the first defendant, Belgore, through his counsel, Ebun Shofunde, SAN, had sought to move a motion to join Allison-Madueke as a defendant in the suit.
However, the prosecution counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo, objected, urging the court not entertain it.
Oyedepo, who said he was served with the motion by the defence counsel before the proceedings commenced today, argued that it was a ploy to stall the ongoing trial.
The prosecution counsel further argued that only the prosecution and not the defence could decide whether the former Minister would be joined in the suit or not.
"We need not bring her before this court. She was not here when the two defendants were arraigned. She was not here when the trial started. Already, I have presented witnesses, and I am even ready to close my case today…," he said.
Having listened to both parties, Justice Aikawa ordered the defence to properly serve the prosecution with the motion.
Thereafter, Oyedepo called a prosecution witness, Usman Zakari, who told the court how investigation revealed that Belgore maintained accounts in both GTBank Plc and Standard Chartered Bank Plc.
When asked by the prosecution counsel to explain further, Zakari said both banks obliged the Commission's requests for the opening packages and statements of accounts of the first defendant.
The prosecution counsel tendered in evidence the original letter dated January 19, 2017 written by Standard Chartered Bank Plc to the Deputy Director, Operations, EFCC, as well as the account opening document and statement of account of the first defendant.
Also, the prosecution counsel tendered in evidence the original letter dated January 10, 2017 written by GT Bank Plc to the Deputy Director, Operations, EFCC, as well as the account opening document and statement of account of the first defendant.
The defence counsel did not object to the admissibility of the documents.
The documents were, therefore, admitted as exhibits 8 and 9.
However, when the prosecution counsel sought to tender in evidence another document containing the e-mail trail between the Managing Director of Fidelity Bank and Ugonna Madueke, a son to the former Petroleum Minister, the defence counsel objected to its admissibility.
Counsel to the first defendant, Shofunde, objected to the admissibility of the certificate of identification as well as the attached documents on the grounds that they failed to comply with the Section 84 of the Evidence Act.
He said the verification of the certificate, which is a condition precedent to the admissibility of the attachments, could only be done either by an expert or a witness who is familiar with the use of the computers.
He, therefore, prayed the court to reject both the certificate of identification and its attachments.
Counsel to the second defendant, Tunji Ayanlaja, SAN, also aligned himself with the argument of the counsel to the first defendant.
In his response, Oyedepo urged the court to adjourn the case in order to enable him respond accordingly.
Consequently, Justice Aikawa adjourned to October 4, 2017 for continuation of hearing.

Suspect led police on four hour manhunt in Leicester
Suspect used rowboat to flee police
Police are looking for a suspect who led them on a manhunt for over four hours Saturday morning.
Leicester police say the search began at about 12:30 a.m. after responding to a call of a suspect involved in an incident earlier in Worcester. When they arrived at the suspect's home, they learned the suspect fled five minutes before they arrived. A resident of the house told police he possibly heard gunshots before police arrived.
Police checked the area around the house and found a loaded assault rifle and a survival kit with additional loaded magazines for the rifle in the back of the home.
A K-9 unit search led police to Waite Pond and firefighters were called in to launch a boat to search the pond. While the search was going on, a resident reported his rowboat stolen, indicating the suspect may have used the boat to row across Waite Pond, according to police.
At about 4:45 a.m., police had located the stolen rowboat on the Chapel Street side of the pond, but did not find the suspect.
The investigation is ongoing.

We are committed to creating a workplace where everyone's voice is heard and respected and team members are encouraged to bring their whole selves to work every day.
- We believe that building a diverse team is vital for effectively serving diverse visitors and building diverse community partnerships.

Universities may censor student reading
Libraries are under pressure to label or even ban works by feminists, Holocaust deniers and climate-change sceptics
Universities are considering the insertion of warnings into books and even moving some off open library shelves altogether to protect students from "dangerous" and "wrong" arguments.
The proposal could hit books by climate-change sceptics, feminists, eugenicists, creationists, theologians and Holocaust deniers. It will generate new controversy over free speech at British universities, where speakers have been "no-platformed" because of their views.
The move on books follows a campaign to restrict access to work by the historian David Irving, which has already resulted in some university libraries, including Churchill College, Cambridge, moving his books into closed storage. Others, such as University College London, have also labelled some of Irving's books "Holocaust denial literature", or shelved them with historiography rather than history.
Manchester has refused to remove

The 'How I Met Your' Mother Revealed
For fans of "How I Met Your Mother," a yellow umbrella holds a very high, rather unnatural, significance.
In Season 1, as Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor) tells his children the story of the show's title, he mentions a yellow umbrella. "Kids, there's more than one story of how I met your mother. You know the short version, the thing with your mom's yellow umbrella, but there's a bigger story…"
Mentioned in no less than 8 episodes, the umbrella becomes a symbol inextricably linked to the woman behind the show's mystery. Ted ends up dating many women, but only one inspires the 9 seasons of this rapidly-closing show.
On Monday, in the show's 8th season finale, the mother's identity was revealed – well, not her identity, but at least the identity of the actress.
Christin Milioti, never before featured in the show, strolled through the train station in the exact boots Lily Aldrin (Alyson Hannigan) hoped Ted's "future wife" would wear. As the acress best known for her Tony-nominated performance in "Once," Milioti set the stage for the final season by laying down her yellow umbrella at the concierge.
In this pivotal moment, while his character's future wife took the screen, Josh Radnor was cracking jokes – and speaking seriously – in Washington, DC. There, he called lobbying Congress for arts funding "super depressing," and said, "that's the big reveal, that's the big twist in the series…"
"Ted is half-Jewish, played by a full Jew!"
Disregard the mother – this is the real secret!

Just a day after Jane Ubell-Meyer got what she was told was a gel manicure she was in agony, suffering what seemed to be electric shocks whenever her thumb touched anything.
"The shock went not only down my thumb, it went up through my elbow and up to my arm," said Meyer. "I'm in such pain, I'm almost crying from the pain."
After examining her, neurologist Orly Avitzur, who is also a medical consultant for Consumer Reports, immediately suspected the chemicals in the manicure.
"I believe that Jane had a gel manicure that also included acrylics," said Dr. Avitzur. "When I examined her thumb, I saw that it had been scraped raw by an electrical file. What I believe happened is that this caused the chemicals to seep in and cause nerve damage."
Believe it or not, most of the ingredients used in nail products are not tested for safety by the Food and Drug Administration before being sold.
And in fact, some of the acrylics used with gels can be associated with fingernail damage and deformity.
"Another problem with gel manicures is rough or painful filing of the surface of the nail, which can cause damage," said Dr. Avitzur.
Dr. Avitzur says that after looking into gel manicures, she recommends sticking with good old-fashioned nail polish. If you're patient and get several coats, nail polish can last a week or more.
If you go to any nail salon Consumer Reports says be sure to take basic precautions like making sure the nail technicians are licensed and they follow the proper procedures when it comes to sanitizing their tools.

- Bio-Carnitine is pure nature-identical L Carnitine
- Vegetable capsules easy to swallow
- Contains 250 mg in each capsule
- Manufactured under Danish pharmaceutical control
|1 capsules contains
|250 mg
|Encapsulated in vegetarian VcapsTM capsules.
Product Facts
Bio-Carnitine are vegetable capsules with 250 mg pure L-carnitine. The manufacturing of Bio-Carnitine is under strict pharmaceutical control and complies with the GMP codex (Good Manufacturing Protocol), which is why Pharma Nord is able to guarantee the quality of the product. Consumers can fully trust that the content is exactly as declared on the package. Bio-Carnitine is produced by means of a unique manufacturing technique based on fermentation. This method that carries the Carnipure™ quality stamp makes it possible to produce L-carnitine exactly like it is done in nature. The result is pure, nature-identical L-carnitine.
What is carnitine?
Carnitine is a non-essential, water-soluble amino acid. "Non-essential" in this context means that the body, under normal circumstances, is able to synthesize carnitine in the liver and kidneys using the amino acid lysine. The process is assisted by another amino acid, methionine, and vitamin C. In addition, iron, vitamin B6, and niacin are involved in several enzymatic processes. The L-form of carnitine is the only one that is of value to humans.
Most of the body's carnitine supply is stored in muscle tissue, including the heart muscle. Normal seminal fluid also contains carnitine.
Our carnitine levels drop with increasing age.
The largest contributing dietary source of carnitine is dairy and red meat, with lamb, game, and beef containing the most. Carnitine is only found in limited quantities in plant protein and for that reason vegetarians (and vegans) often have much lower levels of this amino acid.

The Ethics of Chemical Brain Preservation as a Life Saving Medical Procedure by Michael Cerullo
Life Extension
Throughout most of human history there was little serious reason to debate the ethics of life extension. To quote Hobbes, most lives were "Nasty, brutish, and short." Yet the lack of success didn't stop hopes for miraculous life extension and such hopes have been pursued throughout recorded history [1]. While some hope that continued biomedical advances may cure aging [2,3] the focus of this paper will be on the more revolutionary technology of chemical brain preservation. The first part of the paper will examine...

I'm very pleased to announce that my short novelette about Queen Arsinoe II of Egypt is now available as its own e-book on Amazon and other digital distributors. I couldn't be more pleased with the cover, which was designed with young adult audiences in mind and meant to coordinate with the covers of Lily of the Nile and Song of the Nile.
Arsinoe II was a Macedonian princess. Chances are good that she was very fair-haired. Purple was the most royal color in the ancient world. And, of course, the pyramids were already ancient in her time. I warn that while the style of this novel is simpler and more innocent than my other books, it's still a Stephanie Dray story, so you can expect it to weigh pretty heavily upon your emotions.
Lots of readers have expressed a desire for me to turn this into the prologue to a full-length novel about Arsinoe's life and that's certainly something I'm taking under consideration while I finish that other novel about that other Ptolemaic Queen, Cleopatra Selene. Daughters of the Nile should be out this coming year and I am very excited for readers to learn the whole story of her extraordinary life.

How to Use a Dedicated Business Credit Card
Using a dedicated business card is an excellent way to help keep your business and personal expenses separate, which makes it much easier to total all expenses and tax deductions at the end of the year. According to Bankrate.com, when used wisely a business credit card can also provide short-term financing and much needed startup capital. The short-term financing can even have zero interest if you pay off the debt during the grace period of your card.
Pay for business-specific items and services only with your business credit card. By using a dedicated credit card for your business, the end-of-the-year tax preparation paperwork is simplified as every transaction listed is business-related only. According to Inc.com., keeping a credit card solely for use in your business helps improve your business credit rating as well, because it shows both the IRS and creditors that you're serious about your business.
Charge new items to the business credit card only if those items will increase your revenue. When used as a short-term financing option for revenue-enhancing purposes, dedicated business cards can help grow your business and future profits. If used "just because," however, your business may find itself struggling to pay off debt that wasn't beneficial to it.
Generate and review revenue and cash flow reports monthly to ensure your business is generating enough funds to cover day-to-day expenses and credit obligations while still turning a profit.
