This is the email I just sent them, and it contains my experience with BeachBody:
REQUEST: I want to CANCEL my auto-shipment of " Focus T25 Nutritional Advantage" and I also want to CANCEL my "Team Beachbody Club" membership. I want them cancelled as soon as possible.
Comments: From the very first day that I purchased products from BeachBody, I have been scammed and conned into purchases and payments that I was NEVER made aware of. I ordered something that I didn't mean to (along with my already huge purchase) and as soon as I did (I didn't waste a minute trying to cancel it) I wrote Beachbody an email telling you that I made the mistake on accident. ( Side note: I wasn't sure about the price on this accidental item, and there was no button to take it out of my cart or review it, so I assumed I would be able to see my shopping cart before I checked out to make sure all of the information was correct. NOPE, I was not allowed to do that. My only option was to head to checkout, and when I pressed the button to head to checkout, the item was instantly purchased. ) Since I had JUST ordered it, I thought there would be no problem cancelling that one product. Then I get back an email response telling me NOTHING that I requested or asked about. A few keywords were taken from my email, and an automatic response (or the person who just didn't bother to read it) was sent to me. Thanks for that customer service, I really feel like you care. So I am unable to cancel it because of this, and the order comes in. I prepare to ship it back, and it apparently costs more to ship it back than the actual product costed! So I just kept it. And then today, about a month later, I go to my mailbox to find a package from BeachBody that I was not expecting. When I placed an order a month ago, I added T25 to my shopping cart, and then I received many free (or discount) offers. Considering T25 was very expensive on its own, I only accepted the free offers that I particularly wanted. I made sure to read about each offer and product to make sure they were truly free. And now here I am today, opening my mail box to a $104.04 package that contains nothing but the "Focus T25 Nutritional Advantage" supplement. I was confused, so I went to my online receipt in my email (which I didn't fully read due to me already reading my receipt on Beachbody's page) and there I see "FOCUS T25 Nutritional Advantage - -Free 30 day supply!" I'm thinking, "Yes, this is exactly what I purchased." But then trailing behind it it tells me that you are going to start charging me after the free trial (I signed up for the trial, not the auto-shipment!) and charge me for a 90-day supply, costing $29.95 per month plus shipping. Not only that, I see that my other "free" 30 day trial for "Team Beachbody Club" is also the same as the Nutritional Advantage. I'm being secretly charged after the 30 free days ended. I read thoroughly about these offers, and never saw anything about any of this! So either it wasn't there to see, or it was hidden very well from me. I trusted this company with my credit card information because I thought Shaun T's business would be an honest and respectable one, but now I see that your interest isn't in helping people, it's about how much money you can get and swindle your customers out of. I am a college student with bills piling sky-high (I told Beachbody this in the first email I sent about my accidental order), and also many doctor bills, and my family is helping me while running low on money themselves. This is the last thing that I needed to happen. I am ashamed that I purchased anything from Beachbody and gave money to this company. I am going to try and return this $104.04 purchase, but I am sure it will take a hefty amount of money to do that. So thank you for forcing me into eating ramen for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the next month. I hope I've shown my disgust for this company's practices and made it clear how I feel. If I purchase anything from Shaun T, it will be from Ebay or some other shopping site. I want nothing more to do with this company, and if all of these auto-shipments do not get cancelled immediately I will make sure to spread the word to as many people I can, via all social media and word of mouth, about what has been done to me by this company, and I won't stop until the things that I asked to be cancelled are cancelled. I am attaching a photo of my bill that came in the mail in case you need it for any sort of reason. And let me just say, it takes a lot of to be able to get in touch with customer service, which is shady in itself.
I apologize to the service representative that reads this, due to the fact that you might not know about any of this secret charging business. I am not angry at you, but at the company. I have been through so much with this company that I am at my wits end, and am very frustrated. I appreciate you reading my email, and beg you to cancel these charges. I truly cannot afford it, and I am living off of very little as it is. Thank you for reading me email, and I hope you have a blessed day.
Review about: Beachbody Supplement.
Reason of review: Secret Charges, lack of help or concern.
Monetary Loss: $104.
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution.
I liked: Workouts and shakeology.
I didn't like: Unauthorized charges, Charges on my account, Unauthorized transaction, Gave me the run around, Terrible customer service, Costly return shipping.
Thank you for the reviews I will not be buying anything from this company.
My name is Curtis and I work for Beachbody Customer Service. After reading your post about our company I've personally set out to try and help solve these problems.
When placing an order we do provide upsells and trial offers which you can decline when placing your order. We do apologize if you were charged for the membership and for any inconveniences this may have caused. When placing a customer's order all charges are detailed before the call is ended and a customer's order is placed into our system for processing.
If you were charged after you contacted us to cancel please call 1-800-240-1068 during business hours and ask to speak with a supervisor and we will refund you for any charges applied to your account after you contacted us to cancel your membership. We do apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused.
There was no secret order or charging.Do you really think a company would give you a food product(nutritional)for free , and a 30 day supply at that ? This is what the offer stated , MBG...try it if you don't like it , return it within 30days for a full refund.lol.
I just ordered this product and had the same experience of a higher price at checkout with no means to remove any item.
I immediately responded to their acknowledgement email (same email address as their customer services) to cancel the item but received a delivery failure - illegalhost/domain name found.
I rang my bank to cancel the transaction but as it was not showing at that time I had no choice than to cancel the card. So here I am card/cashless for the next 3 days awaiting my replacement card for Christmas food shopping.
This is where sites like ThePirateBay seem like legitimate solutions. If these companies rip people off like this, why the heck pay for their overpriced videos?
I've a friend who has ALL these videos and he got them for free. Stick with YouTube if you're not into piracy. There are tonnes of decent workouts on there, and shakeology is no better than any well sourced protein drink mix.
Can you not call your credit card company and let them know to cancel these?
MasterCard does as far as I know. I bet if Shaun T knew, he'd be let down!
I wouldn't stoop to their level, though they may deserve it! I'd prefer to be able to send it all back, this has just left a sick taste in my mouth for the entire company!
I hate that I gave them any of my money, or supported them in any way so they can continue to do this to people! What I ordered was a Christmas gift for me from my mother, and when I told her what happened last night she cried! We cannot afford this! On top of school bills (for two kids), medical bills, and Christmas for a large family, this is devastating!
I called them this morning, though I knew from other reviews that I would get nowhere. The woman who answered talked like she was reading from a script! She was loading me up with compliments and I ended up having to be curt with her. Everything I asked she just kept saying yes to, and agreeing to do what I wanted, but she never explained to me how she was going to do these things.
I didn't believe that she was truly listening. At the end of the conversation I asked for her name for future reference, in case they tried to say that I didn't call or cancel my auto shipment (which I read has happened often) and she stopped. She heard me clarey and perfectly throughout the entire 30 minute conversation, and when I asked her that she paused for for a few seconds, stuttered, then said, "I'm sorry, I didn't hear you, what did you say?" I asked for her name again, and she said, "Um, okay hold on.." After a little bit she comes back and spells her name for me, "Barballite".
So many of these other reviews talk about how they've gotten these phony names from people, and then a Beachbody coach will comment and say something to the effect of, "How dare you make fun of someone's name, you're such a child and it's all your fault and we do nothing but help you and blah blah blah.."
Anyway, time will tell if she fixed it or not.
I probably won't know for another three months. I'll have to try out YouTube! Any suggestions on who I should watch? I've also heard that Shakeology was nothing special, but I cannot say for myself because I haven't used it!
We called the credit card company (Discover) today and made them aware of the situation, so they are on alert if we receive anymore charges! I'm going to have to add another $40 dollars to the amount I've lost to them, a membership to their website cost that much and I'm not sure if that's monthly or over three consecutive months..
Ugh, I'm rambling! I just cannot believe how greedy and uncaring people can be!
Try fitnessblender.com, hundreds of free workout videos for all levels of fitness (hosted in youtube and very well organized in fitnessblender.com), and you can get a workout schedule in pdf format for about 10$ if you want to support them.
About beachbody, I recently tried to purchase Insanity Max:30 and got a similar experience, in my case I did not even finish the checkout process and then I mysteriously got an invoice from them, a complete scam. I contacted their support team a few minutes later, mentioned the magic phrase "credit card charge back" and they agreed on cancelling the whole thing.
The sad part of this is that many of their products are actually very good and I really would like to support the trainers like Shaun T. and Tony, but giving my money to the bunch of thieves that are handling this company is not something I am willing to do.
I actually lost more than $104.04 due to not being able to cancel the first order, and it costing more to ship it back. AND the price of being a " Team Beachbody Club" member. But I am just trying to get my $104.04 back by returning the product, because it wouldn't be worth it to have to go through their extremely unhelpful customer service (with keyword email replies) to get more than that back.

Cypress Assistance Ministries is a faith based organization that serves individuals and families in financial crisis, those on the brink of homelessness, the elderly, the unemployed and anyone that needs hope for a better future. Unexpected events such as illness, separation, job loss, and family crisis can be overwhelming, and that's when CAM steps in. Assistance ranges from financial help with rent or utilities, food, furniture, clothing and household goods to providing job counseling services and job leads. Our goal is to restore our neighbors, regardless of religious or ethnic background, to self-sufficiency. In addition, CAM provides school supplies, holiday meals, and toys at Christmas for our neighbors in need.
Who We Are
In faith and partnership with the community, Cypress Assistance Ministries (CAM) turns stumbling blocks into stepping stones by making resources available to individuals and families facing adversity.
Cypress Assistance Ministries was founded in July of 1990 as the ministry of a local church, serving macaroni and cheese meals from the backseat of a car. Within a year CAM was its own entity, with nonprofit status in place, poised to grow. Today, we are a part of the culture of the Cy-Fair area and the rich history of our ministry is testimony to the willingness of the community to help their neighbors in crisis and to continue to do so as we move into the future. What started out as a dream over twenty-five years ago became a reality, and to this day continues to evolve through the support and dedication of many past and current individuals, families, congregations, businesses and organizations. Our mission is clear: helping those in need move into self-sufficiency.
CAM serves an area encompassing four zip codes – 77065, 77095, 77433 and 77429 – and job assistance is not limited by zip code. Within the area we serve there are almost 30,000 individuals living below the poverty level, and more than 50% of the students attending Cy-Fair schools receive free or reduced price lunches. A full 25% of the children in our area don't know where their next meal will come from when they are not in school. CAM partners with local churches and organizations, resulting in effective and efficient care for the community while avoiding duplication of services. We continually encourage input, evaluate the needs, pull together, and in turn, strive to offer programs that best serve those who need our assistance.
CAM is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization and provides tax receipts for all donations.

OJR: Using Google Trends to fine-tune your news website
March 25th, 2008Posted by Oliver Luft in Editors' pick
Google's tool can help online publishers tweak their content to maximize traffic from search engine users, says OJR.
'Google Trends allows you to select up to five words or phrases, then shows you how those search terms rate relative to one another in both the volume of search queries handled by Google, as well as news references tracked by the search engine. It's an addictive site for a data geek, like me, and essential for any online publisher who wants to optimize his or her publication to attract more visitors from search engines, such as Google.'

Alberto Nisman, the prosecutor whose mysterious death has gripped Argentina, had drafted a warrant for the arrest of President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, accusing her of trying to shield Iranian officials from responsibility in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish center here, the lead investigator into his death said on Tuesday.
The 26-page document, which was found in the garbage at Mr. Nisman's apartment, also requested the arrest of Héctor Timerman, Argentina's foreign minister. Both Mrs. Kirchner and Mr. Timerman have repeatedly denied Mr. Nisman's accusation that they tried to reach a secret deal with Iran to lift international arrest warrants for Iranian officials wanted in connection with the bombing.
The new revelation that Mr. Nisman had drafted arrest warrants for the president and the foreign minister further illustrates the heightened tensions between him and the government before he was found dead on Jan. 18 at his apartment with a gunshot wound to his head. He had been scheduled the next day to provide details before Congress about his accusations against Mrs. Kirchner.

Secrecy & Leaks
Does Judicial Review of National-Security Policies Constrain or Enable the Government?
With the current controversies over the NSA's surveillance programs, I want to return to broader issues about how to think about the role of courts in the national-security area.
In this area, government typically tends to be exceptionally resistant to judicial review of constitutional challenges. Moreover, American constitutional law's tight requirements that limit courts to adjudicating only actual "cases and controversies" offers many bases, such as standing doctrine, on which government can legitimately argue that courts cannot or should not reach the substantive merits of these challenges. From this just-completed Term of the Supreme Court, a clear example is the Court's 5-4 decision in Clapper v. Amnesty International, here. Holding that it had no power to address the substantive issues, the Court dismissed a challenge to parts of the 2008 amendments to FISA that enabled the government to engage in certain foreign intelligence surveillance, with FISA court approval. This particular mode of surveillance targets non-U. S. persons located abroad -- without having to demonstrate, as in the past, that the target of the electronic surveillance is a foreign power or agent of a foreign power.
More broadly than any one particular issue or case, one of the most remarkable features of our political and legal system since 9/11 is how few of the central issues the courts have addressed on the merits -- despite the novelty of many of the legal questions and the high stakes involved. Considerable uncertainty still remains about the proper scope of the Authorization for the Use of Military Force. No court has addressed the circumstances under which targeted killings are lawful. Many issues about the proper procedures to be used for trials before military commissions, and what charges can validly be brought there, remain unanswered. And as Clapper illustrates, courts have had nothing to say about the scope of various surveillance programs.
Typically, divisions over judicial review in this area have a characteristic ideological orientation. Civil libertarians, hoping the courts will invalidate programs in the name of individual rights, press courts to reach the merits. More "conservative" national-security proponents, including the government, argue against a judicial role. It is no surprise that Clapper, and cases like it, generate 5-4 decisions that put the conventionally-labelled "conservative" Justices against the "liberal" ones. To those who resist judicial review, the fear is that once courts get into the business of resolving national-security issues on the merits, they are too likely to impose rights-constraints on otherwise effective national-security programs.
But two very significant benefits to government policy in this area can also result from judicial review. Over the many years since 9/11, I have come to wonder more whether our system calibrates these potential benefits and costs well.
First, government actors have a need for legal clarity, particularly in national-security areas where the legal questions are novel and the stakes of guessing wrong particularly high. In the absence of more definitive court guidance, government lawyers and policymakers have spent a staggering number of hours trying to anticipate what courts might conclude is the valid scope of the government's power to detain, or to use military trials, and similar questions. In many contexts, a significant element in what government actors need is simply legal clarity; knowledge of where the lines lie between the permitted and the forbidden can help government actors figure out how best to reach their legitimate goals. Surely there is something not fully functional about a system that requires a decade's worth of guesswork, and all the resources involved, about exactly where the legal boundaries lie.
Second, judicial decisions do not just call a halt to government action, they also legitimate it. A definitive legal ruling that some controversial program is lawful can diminish (even if not eliminate) some of the power of the charge of illegality Those resistant to judicial review, including the government, can too easily lose sight of this power of courts to legitimate government action. Many of us on Lawfare have argued for years that government needs to embrace more transparency to help explain and legitimate its national-security policies. Judicial review can be seen as part of that transparency effort.
By way of contrast, the Supreme Court of Israel has eliminated virtually all procedural obstacles to judicial review, including of national-security issues -- to an extent that would be shocking to those familiar only with American judicial practice. But one of the benefits is that the Israeli Court has issued the most important judicial decision in the world on the lawful parameters of targeted killings, and the Israeli government now has clarity about the lawful scope of any such actions.
None of these comments is designed to make a starry-eyed, overly idealist case for judicial review. Courts can, indeed, make mistakes. Judicial review must not compromise legitimate national-security needs, such as protecting confidential sources and methods, as well as not compromising necessarily covert programs. And some of the constraints on American judicial review are deeply rooted in constitutional law and history, while others are more matters of prudential limits.
But I want to call more attention to that the American practice of narrow, "case and controversy" judicial review is an outlier among courts in many other major democracies. And there are some significant costs -- from the perspective of the government itself, not just those who seek to challenge government action in the courts -- to a structure of judicial review that still leaves us, more than a decade after 9/11, with so little legal guidance from courts on so many novel, essential, and continuing issues at the center of counter-terorism law.

SustainCommWorld Draws National Audience
Tuesday, February 10, 2009
Press release from the issuing companySan Luis Obispo, Calif -- Produced by SustainCommWorld (www.sustaincommworld.com) and hosted by the Graphic Communication Institute at Cal Poly (www.grci.calpoly.edu), the 2nd Annual "The Business of Green Media" sustainability conference held on January 22 attracted a national audience.
They came from 17 states and 55 organizations including companies, associations, universities, and government agencies. It attracted 22 sponsors including printers, vendors, software developers, media, and associations.
Some of the attendee comments were:
"It provided more perspective in how other companies were applying sustainability to their business models and some of the challenges that were perceived or anticipated by industry professional."
"It was good to get an update on where the industry is heading regarding sustainability and to learn more about what other companies are doing."
"Very informative and educational presentations and speakers."
"Good way to get up to speed in leading issues in sustainable media."
"Great presenters on a very timely topic!"
"I felt I walked away with valuable information that I could apply to my plant."
"A chance to think about the intersection between green issues that impact both digital and print media."
"The industry must be aware of the changes around us and it's not just in technology. Being 'Green' means more than you think and hearing what industry experts are saying will help you survive and thrive in the future."
"If you are serious about staying in business in the coming years you cannot avoid the issue of sustainability. You can wait for regulations to come down and scramble to comply or you can prepare and be a leader in the graphic arts industry."
"This conference was one step in getting informed and inspired, learning how the communication and sustainability industry can work together to gather practical advice from leaders that have 'walked the talk.'"
Keynote speaker Christina Page, Director, Climate and Energy Strategy, Yahoo! provided insight into a high-level corporate commitment to resource sustainability. She discussed steps Yahoo! had undertaken to reduce its energy footprint and the creative approaches to improve their carbon profile going on across the enterprise.
Harvey Levenson, head of Cal Poly's Graphic Communication Department, said, "Never before had the graphic arts industry rallied behind a combined business and social cause as with sustainability. I've been monitoring the industry press over the past year and I am hard pressed to recall one publication--print or online--that has not addressed the sustainability issue on some level."
"It is a bottom line issue," Levenson said. "Print buyers increasingly want to work only with printers who are addressing sustainability and they want their printers to work only with equipment manufacturers and vendors that are supporting the issue. Hence, it is a revenue stream and profitability matter for the graphic arts industry."
Lisa Wellman, president of SustainCommWorld, said, "This is the pressing issue of our time. Every C-level executive should be assessing the risks of inaction and exploring the upside of managing to a triple bottom line. The conference speakers presented real opportunities that, at this time in the market especially, no company should be ignoring."
In introducing the conference, Levenson said, "No printing process is exempt from the governmental requirements and social responsibility of developing sustainable practices. It is also imperative to show current and prospective customers that measures are being taken to protect the environment. All processes from toner-based and inkjet to gravure are expected to comply. Printing, publishing, and packaging companies have an equal stake in supporting sustainability because they are being scrutinized by print buyers and the public about what they are doing to support sustainability."

Pro7 could be bumped off MDAX index
Stock trading down more than 7% at under $1.50 a shareCOLOGNE, Germany -- Shares in European broadcaster ProSiebenSat.1 sank from rock bottom to subterranean Wednesday amid speculation the stock could be booted off Germany's MDAX index.
ProSieben shares opened slightly up but quickly headed south on news that the group booked a $162 million loss last year on shrinking revenue while debt increased to $4.2 billion. By late afternoon, the stock was down more than 7%, trading at less than $1.50 a share.
The share price means ProSieben has a market capitalization of about $160 million, lower than any of the other companies listed on the MDAX, a German index for mid-sized firms.
German stock market authorities are expected to decide after close Wednesday whether the group -- Europe's second-largest broadcaster -- should be kicked off the MDAX, a move that could further hurt ProSieben with investors.

No asteroid strike, no volcanic eruption, no slow overheating of the Earth, no nuclear strike could be worse news.
OK, that's a bit hyperbolic.
But at least for those late baby boomers and Gen-Xers who grew up listening to the siren promises of spokes-cartoon Geoffrey the Giraffe, the imminent demise of all U.S. Toys R Us stores is the end of a shining era.
I grew up a Charlie Bucket and Toys R Us was my Wonka chocolate factory. From bikes to trains to video games, the commercials promised endless wonders waiting to be discovered in the aisles.
My parents could not afford to lavish my brother and I with Transformers, Micro Machines, G.I. Joes, Dino-Riders, Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, Battle Beasts, He-Man, Voltron, MASK, or Thundercats. Oh, we had plenty to play with — Etch A Sketch, Hot Wheels cars by the dozens, Atari 2600, and primo yard sale finds — but Toys R Us represented the dream. It was the Holy Grail, Excalibur, the lost city of Atlantis, and a thousand pirate treasures all under one roof.
Neither Santa Claus' workshop, nor Uncle Scrooge's money bin, nor eternal salvation could compete with the dream of one day running through Toys R Us with a blank check.
I remember a third grade trip there with my buddy, Chris Dixon. His parents paraded us through the store — I can still feel the dizzy promise of the bright packaging and the excitement of just being close enough to reach out and touch the toys.
A peek at glory came on my 10th birthday. My parents took me to The Store to pick out a brand new mountain bike. It seemed there were hundreds to choose from, and my father walked with me past each one as we weighed coolness against build against price (money was very much an object). Finally, we came to the black-and-teal Magna that would define pretty much the rest of my childhood. It provided adolescent mobility to friends' houses, school, and pickup baseball games. It was my Toys R Us trophy.
Social mobility is a wonderful thing and it's allowed me to take my kids into the hallowed halls far more often. Shopping for Batman figures, poseble dinosaurs, Shopkins, and posters, we've rarely had to deal with crowds. The lights have seemed dimmer somehow. The glow isn't gone but it doesn't quite shine the same.
By the time you read this, the dream might be over. After filing last year for Chapter 11 protection, Toys R Us signaled it would try to restructure and revamp its stores. It announced it would close about 20 percent of its American locations but now there are strong rumblings it has no choice but to liquidate all its holdings.
Bloomberg reports Toys R Us has not been able to make enough headway in paying down its $5 billion in debt. Even with annual revenue in excess of $11 billion, the cost of running the chocolate factory became too much.
The company has not been able to keep pace with online retailers — namely Amazon — which makes toy manufacturers nervous since Toys R Us makes up a huge chunk of the industry's sales (though not as much as Wal-Mart, according to Fortune). Even going out of business will pack an economic punch: The last thing toy-makers want is to flood the market with deeply-discounted clearance items, which will cool sales at competing chains. Mattel and Hasbro's share prices saw big drops Friday amid the Toys R Us news.
Yes, it seems unavoidable that Toys R Us will join Lionel Playworld, KB Toys, FAO Schwartz, and Child World in the retail graveyard. Goodbye, Geoffrey.

Hypebeast has posted an interview with Stan Smith, the face to one of the most popular tennis shoes of all times. The interview (by Eugene Kan) gives a little insight into Stan's own background and how he broke into the world of professional tennis, as well as how the game has changed over the past 40 years. Smith also talks about his minimal involvement in the development of the Adidas trainer that has taken his name and his own surprise that the shoe has been in production for almost 40 years without hiatus. Oh and I mustn't forget about the curious tale of why the shoe bares a moustache-less visage of Stan, that's a real corker! (It's not)
The interview will be of interest to any sneaker or tennis fanatic and if you're a tennis sneaker fanatic then this will BLOW-YOUR-MIND so take a peek here.

Jimmy Fallon Makes Brian Williams Sing 'Rapper's Delight' In A Video That Should Win Every Award Ever
Name any award in existence and this video of NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams rapping "Rapper's Delight" should win it. It should EGOT and win the Nobel Peace Prize and maybe even steal that soccer trophy from that 12-year-old over there. If nothing else, it should convince everyone that Jimmy Fallon was the right choice to host The Tonight Show. You just have to reward someone who gives us videos like this.
If you're familiar with this bit from Late Night, you know that Mr. Williams is not, in fact, rapping the song in question. It's simply a mashup of him saying all the words in the song at different times. I say "simply," but of course that totally undermines all the work that so clearly went into this video. The result is flawless. A lot of videos like this on the Internet aren't quite so convincing, because they're edited sloppily or the song choice is too ambitious. This one is so precise and well-edited it will scare you.
Oh, and if you think that Bri Wi's voice is the only one that lends itself to creating this illusion, think twice. This time correspondent Lester Holt joins in while Brian takes a break and sips from a coffee cup on his side of the split screen. It's brilliant. What makes it even more brilliant is the fact that you know Brian Williams would totally rap this in real life if Jimmy asked him, because he's just that much of a good sport. But then we wouldn't be able to marvel at this flawless editing job. Jimmy Fallon knows to always go the more creative route. You want a viral video that everyone will be talking about the next day? Jimmy Fallon is your man (as are the amazing editors who put this together). Now excuse me while I watch this on a loop for the rest of the day.

As little girls many of us dream about our wedding, who will be the groom (at that age its ken), decorations. At that young age we dream big, as the years go on some of our dreams start to fizzle and that dream we had as a little girl becomes just a dream.
Thanks to a young man who never gave up on me and my parents I get my dream wedding. In the eighth grade I met this young boy through a friend of mine and right away something just clicked. I am sure that many of you have had that one relationship were the chemistry was there right away. I was young and high school was right around
the corner. This boy did not go to the same school and neither one of us could drive. Being young and blind to his love I decided to brake up with him. I wanted to be single going into high school. I wanted to date someone older plus it not cool to date someone
from a different school, so I thought! Girls, you know what I mean. I did end up dating a few guys my freshman and sophomore years but I still kept in touch with this young boy. He kept trying to get back together with me, he never gave up. I am sure that almost every girl has that one exboyfriend that never let go. I decided to give the relationship another try now that I could drive. We saw each other on the weekends, but yet again it was not working again. He was devastated but we still kept in touch.
After we broke up I just couldn't date anyone else. I just kept thinking about him and I had to figure out what to do. I didn't want to keep hurting him, I was a confused girl. I am sure that everyone has felt this way at one time or another. Do you ever wonder why we felt this way or keep going back? Do you ever think it's because you love them?
I was scared of that word "love" at that age. I thought I can't love someone. I was being ignorant, this person loved me and I closed my eyes to it. I believe that many of us do this and this is why people are with the wrong person. We open our eyes too late and that one person that could have been the one is gone.
I decided to give the young boy one last chance not for him but for myself. I let my guard down and opened my eyes to the love he was giving me. That one last chance changed everything, he never gave up on us and that is why when he asked me to marry him I said yes. I knew if he didn't give up now he never would. That is how I got my white dress and wedding because I opened my eyes to his love.

Cardiff City Football Club is pleased to confirm that South Korean International midfielder Kim Bo-Kyung has joined the Club on a three year contract from J. League Division 1 side Cerezo Osaka in Japan.
Subject to the Club completing necessary work permit processes, Kim will finalise his move after his London 2012 Olympic commitments with the South Korea national side. He will then link up with the Cardiff City squad in preparation for the start of the 2012/13 season.
South Korean international Kim Bo-Kyung spoke exclusively to Cardiff City Player after completing his move to Cardiff City from J.League Division One side Cerezo Osaka.
"Cardiff City was always my preferred choice, despite interest from other clubs," said Bo-Kyung. "I think the tactics and the vision here will suit me and that is why I wanted to come to the Club.
"I enjoy playing with confidence; when I'm confident I score goals and I hope to score a lot of goals here at Cardiff City. I still have a lot to learn, but feel I can offer my technique and passing ability to the team.
"Playing in the Championship will be very different to the J-League. I will learn a lot from playing in such a division but also feel I can use what I've learned from Japan and bring that to the team too."
The midfielder - who is comfortable playing anywhere across the middle of the park - is currently competing in the Olympic Games, featuring prominently in South Korea's 0-0 draw with Mexico at St. James' Park on Thursday.
"I'm very happy to have signed for Cardiff City before I play more games in the Olympics with my country," Bo-Kyung continued. "It will have a positive impact on my play for South Korea, I am sure. If we play to the best of our abilities then I'm sure we can achieve things this summer."
And as for heroes, there was one man in particular that he hopes to emulate, saying: "I admire Park Ji-Sung who has been my teacher and role-model as a young South Korean footballer.
"I know he has said some nice things about me and my potential; I don't know if I'll become as good a player as he says he thinks I could, but I will certainly try my very best to meet expectations. I'm also a fan of David Silva of Manchester City and enjoy his style of play."
Malky Mackay said of his latest recruit: "We're delighted to have completed the deal to bring Bo-Kyung to Cardiff City - I'm sure he's going to be an excellent acquisition.
"He is comfortable playing anywhere across the midfield and can score goals. We look forward to welcoming him into our training setup after his involvement in the Olympics.
"I'd like to thank Bo-Kyung's representatives and also his former club Cerezo Osaka for the professional way in which they've done business with us to complete the transfer."
Hope he can help Cardiff get promoted. Also I heard the deal was worth 2.4 million euros.

Hello everyone - I am sorry that I have not been able to get involved in
dialogue earlier on. I would like to respond to a couple of issues that
have been raised:
1) The point was made that although in my opening statement I mentioned
Title IX covers all aspects of education, Title IX does not apply to the
curriculum. The Title IX regulations state: "Nothing in this regulation
shall be interpreted as requiring or prohibiting or abridging in any way
use of particular textbooks or curricular materials." However, Title IX
has helped to pave the way for research regarding the content of what
students actually learn in school and has helped focus attention on
curricular issues generally. For example, there was testimony during Title
IX's Congressional hearings about male-dominated readers used in schools
testimony about teachers making assignments to students based on gender
stereotypes. Next month, the National Coalition for Women and Girls in
Education will release its Title IX at 30 report card and it will include a
progress report on the "Learning Environment" -- I hope that all
will review this report.
2) There has been some discussion of the single-sex education issue and the
recent Administration announcement to open up the Title IX regulations.
Here is an overview of what is going on: A provision was included in the
Child Left Behind Act that states that local education agencies may use
funds that are set aside for innovative programs to establish single-sex
schools and classes, consistent with applicable law. The No Child Left
Behind Act also directed the Department of Education to issue guidelines
within 120 days on the applicable law. On May 8, the Department of
Education put two notices in the Federal Register. One notice met the
requirement that "guidelines" be issued and restated the current Title IX
regulations. The second notice issued was a "Notice of Intent to Regulate"
which states that the Department of Education intends to open up the Title
IX regulations in order to provide greater "flexibility" to local education
agencies to provide single-sex education opportunities. This notice asked
for comments from the public to be submitted by July 8, 2002. Although the
notice poses some questions that the Department is particularly interested
in considering, the notice did not provide the test of what the new
regulations mights be. Of great concern, however, is the very fact that
Department of Education wants to open up long-standing civil rights
regulations that already permit single-sex education in limited,
circumstances. The following links are the statement of the National
Women's Law Center in response to the Administration's announcement that it
intends to amend the Title IX regulations and our one-pager on what is
currently permitted under Title IX and the U.S. Constitution:
http://www.nwlc.org/details.cfm?id=1102§ion=newsroom and
3) There was some discussion last week about Title IX being a "funding"
statute. While it is certainly true that Title IX attaches only to those
education programs or activities that receive federal funding (which, by
way is all public schools and most private schools), Title IX was enacted
pursuant to the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment (as
as the Spending Clause). Indeed, in enacting Title IX, Congress saw Title
IX as a means of enforcing the core principles of equality embodied in the
Equal Protection Clause. Thus, the Equal Protection Clause ia an equally
important source of constitutional authority for Title IX and we should not
give it the short end of the stick.
I hope that you find this information helpful.

Video encoding is moving from the desktop to the cloud, but it's a slow evolution, says Peter Csathy, president and CEO of Sorenson Media. Csathy was interviewed on the red carpet during the recent Streaming Media West conference in Los Angeles, where he talked about the cloud's possibilities.
One reason for the slow move to the cloud is that companies have concerns about privacy and security. But when they try cloud encoding, says Csathy, they typically come back for more.
As that happens, new opportunities present themselves. Companies like Technicolor, for example, are able to deliver dailies instantly to producers, who can then view them on mobile devices anywhere in the world.
Sorenson has been focusing on enterprises lately, says Csathy, making customers comfortable with cloud encoding and emphasizing the fast upload technology that allows them to upload large files without long delays:
"Harness the power of the cloud, take those files — fast file, fast transfer up into the cloud because that's critical so you can have near real-time review and approval and collaboration — but wrapping it in all kinds of security so that you feel safe taking this prime motion picture and television content that's worth millions of dollars and that can't get out, it cannot be leaked out, wrapping that in the security that's necessary to enable the media and entertainment companies to feel comfortable with that, but now you can transcode it, optimize the delivery, and auto-detect the device that it's being sent to," Csathy enthuses.
The move to the cloud is the next evolution of video encoding, Csathy says.
"In the next three years, I see the majority or workflows going into the cloud. You will always have some behind the firewall, but it will be a gradual transition. Once the companies get comfortable with it after getting a taste of it, then more and more of the workflow will go there," he adds.
Not that Sorenson is only about the cloud. Shortly before the Streaming Media West conference, it introduced Sorenson Squeeze 8, its latest desktop encoder.
"We focus on quality first and foremost, and, with the latest version, it's faster, higher quality with H.264 also now," says Csathy, who calls it the gold standard of desktop editing.

Maine set to sell $220M bond to repay hospitals
Bond to trigger matching federal funds
Maine set to sell $220M bond to repay hospitals
Bond to trigger matching federal funds
AUGUSTA, Maine —
Maine is gearing up to sell a $220 million bond that will be used to repay the state's hospitals for unpaid Medicaid services.
Gov. Paul LePage's office said Thursday that the liquor operation revenue bond is expected to be sold next week.
The bond will be used to pay $183.5 million to Maine's hospitals and will trigger a federal match of $305 million to fully repay the hospitals' more than $400 million debt.
Debt rating agency Standard & Poor has assigned the proposed bond an "A+" rating with a stable outlook while Moody's assigned its 'A1' rating with a stable outlook.
The Republican governor says in a statement that he is "proud to deliver" on his promise "to finally pay off this burdensome debt."

Bromberg leads 10M qualifying at US diving meet
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Murphy Bromberg was the leading qualifier going into the women's 10-meter platform final at the U.S. national diving championships Wednesday.
She set a pool record with 373.20 points at the University of Iowa. That bettered the mark of 357.70 set by Olympian Brittany Viola in 2011.
Cheyenne Cousineau, who was Bromberg's synchro partner at last month's world championships in Spain, qualified second in the semifinals with 301.35. Emma Villarreal was third at 296.20. The top 12 divers advanced to Saturday's final.
In the men's 3-meter springboard semis, Hayden Jones was the leading qualifier at 454.10.
Steele Johnson was second at 423.45, and Michael Hixon was third at 423.25. Sam Dorman, who won the 1-meter title on Tuesday, qualified ninth.
The meet runs through Sunday.

text: This book describes the development of systems of magnetic resonance imaging using the higher magnetic field strength of 3 tesla, in comparison to the current gold standard of 1.5 tesla. These new systems of MRI make it possible to perform with high spatial, temporal and contrast resolution not only morphological examinations but also functional studies on spectroscopy, diffusion, perfusion, and cortical activation, thus helping research and providing an important tool for routine diagnostic activity. At the same time the new systems offer unparalleled sensitivity and specificity in the numerous conditions of neuroradiological interest. The volume also contains chapters on the safety issues related to the installation and use of high-field magnets, and a pictorial overview of the main clinical applications of brain trauma, stroke, white matter disease, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and brain tumours.

Narita Airport Terminal 1
Shopping/Entertainment | Avg price: ¥0 | English Available: None (Unknown)
ReviewsAdd your review
Great terminal but access leaves a bit to be desired
Terminal 1 at Narita is certainly one of the better international terminal out there, for me. It's pretty well organized (although I have experienced pretty long queues at security from time to time), and has all the facilities and shops you could want from a terminal. It shouldn't really be a plus point but the smoking rooms here are good, too being as they are on the outside of the building and once you go through immigration they do a pretty good job with them in the departure areas. My one gripe with all of Narita Airport is the access, especially getting away from it when you arrive. The frequency of train services just doesn't seem to match the airport's status as a major travel hub for the largest city in the world. It's not too bad for departures when you can be pretty sure exactly of the times and schedules, but for arrivals when you can't be sure if you're landing on time, and you're likely tired and irritable anyway, missing a train by a couple of minutes and having to wait half an hour for next one isn't the best feeling in the world.
One of the best terminals in the world
I think the general consensus for anyone who has flown a lot is that Narita Airport is one of the better ones. I personally like Terminal 1 as it is the one I am most familiar with. I think it is extremely well laid out and they really have thought of everything. There is a great selection of shops and restaurants in Terminal 1 Narita Airport. There is also so many services both landside and airside. On the landside area they have viewing decks, play areas, prayer rooms, family rooms, nurseries, smoking areas, ATMs, workspaces, massage chairs... the list goes on and on. After you've gone through security there are even more convenient services, stores and facilities which really take the edge of the journey and make it a more pleasurable experience. Inside the departures area (past security) they even have shower rooms which you can pay to use. There is a hotel where you can stay for just a couple of hours, which is particularly useful if you are in transit. The only complaint I have about Terminal 1, and it isn't enough to deduct a star, is that the passport control area is often crowded and can move quite slowly. If you give yourself plenty of time to get through security and passport control this does not need to be a problem. In my experience the airport staff I have encountered have been very helpful and patient. The terminal one building itself is very bright, spacious and airy. Everything is very clearly marked out in a selection of languages, generally English, Korean and Chinese. The airport is very well serviced by trains, buses, shuttle buses and taxis.

The more open you are to the world around you this year the more your luck will improve. If you can get past the nagging doubt that you are not as talented as you would like to be you may surprise yourself and create something truly remarkable.
ARIES (March 21 – April 20):
You will receive an offer of some sort today and if you are smart you will grab it with both hands. By all means make a few inquiries first but don't take too long about it or one of your rivals could snatch it from under your nose.
TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):
Do what you can to brighten up the day of a friend or family member who is feeling a bit depressed. Your can-do attitude is exactly what they need to get their act together and get back into the mainstream of life. A smile cures all ills.
GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):
There is no point feeling guilty about something that you did not cause. Under no circumstances allow others to persuade you that you are somehow at fault – they are simply trying to deflect the blame. Point the finger right back at them.
CANCER (June 22 – July 23):
Partners and loved ones will do anything you ask of them over the next 24 hours – so ask away! Everyone you meet will want to do you favours and make you happy. Why? Because it makes them feel happy too. Why should you deny them?
LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):
Certain people may say you have to act quickly but only because they will benefit from what you do. If you don't feel much like making an effort today then by all means hold off until you do. There is no need to rush things.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
Set yourself short-term goals today, goals you can reach without too much of an effort. If you want to get the best out of the next 24 hours you must find ways to relax. Better that you do nothing than you do too much.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
There is nothing that friends and family members will not do for you today. Money matters and business issues are under excellent stars and financial deals agreed and signed now will reap major rewards before the end of the month.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
Don't be too tough on yourself Scorpio – not even someone as clever as you can get it right every time. There is no point dwelling on your failures and no need to when the planets indicate there are plenty of successes coming your way.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
You will hear something today that you can, if you wish, turn to your advantage but ask yourself first if it is the right thing to do. If you are told something in confidence don't pass the information on just for the fun of it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
You will be in a generous mood over the next 24 hours, especially with those who have been generous with you in the past. Let them know, by actions as well as words, how much you appreciate the efforts and sacrifices they have made.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
You may find it hard to trust certain people but the fact is you must. Yes, of course, it's possible that they might betray you, but do you really want to go through life worrying about things that may never happen? Get over it.
PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
Friends and work colleagues will rally round and make life easier for you over the next few days and you will be immensely grateful for their generosity of spirit. Most likely it is karmic repayment for what you have done for them in the past.

The integration of forage legumes into the low-input, cereal-based farming system of the Sahel may be the key to sustaining soil, crop, and livestock production. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of intercropping the forage legumes Stylosanthes fruticosa (Retz.) Slston or S. hamata (L.) R. Br. on grain yield, fodder yield, and crude protein (CP) yield and concentration. Four field trials were conducted on a Psammentic Paleustalf (siliceous, isohyperthermic) soil from 1988 to 1990 at Sadore, Niger. Each Stylosanthes species was grown in alternate single and triple row patterns with millet for 1 and 2 yr, with stylo regrowing from stubble during the second year. Control treatments were sole crops of millet and stylo. Intercropping either Stylosanthes species with millet for 1 yr in alternate single rows did not affect millet grain yield, because of low stylo competition. Total dry matter (DM) harvested of intercrop was similar to that of sole millet, while CP concentration of total DM increased moderately from 43 g kg-1 in sole millet crop to 75 g kg-1 in intercroDuring the second year of association, stylo was very competitive, depressing intercropped millet grain by an average of 67 percent in 1989 and 48 percent in 1990 compared with sole millet grain yield. Total DM and CP yield, and CP concentration of the harvested fodder were, respectively, 1.4, 3.0, and 2.3 times greater in intercrop than sole millet. Millet-stylo intercrops, with each species planted at half its sole crop density, appear to have an advantage in fodder yield and CP over sole millet cropping but not in total grain yield.

Bacteria survives longer in cookies and sandwiches
Taking blood pressure pills regularly can save more lives lost to stroke and heart failures, while infants learn languages better with wooden blocks and books than electronic toys—studies and research tips for a healthier you
More From Leisure »
Infants learn language faster with traditional toys than electronic toys
Playing with books or traditional toys such as a wooden puzzle or building blocks is more effective than electronic toys for infants that produce lights, words and songs when it comes to picking up language, a study suggests. Researchers from Northern Arizona University conducted a controlled experiment with 26 parent-infant pairs where children were 10 to 16 months old. They were given three sets of toys: electronic toys (a baby laptop and a baby phone); traditional toys (wooden puzzle and building blocks with pictures); and five board books with farm animals, shape or colours. While playing with electronic toys adults said fewer words and engaged less with children. Even the infants vocalized less when playing with electronic toys compared to traditional toys and books. The study was published in the journal JAMA Pediatrics.

Bacteria lives longer in cookies, crackers and sandwiches
Bacteria like salmonella survive longer on certain food items like cookies and crackers, shows a study. Researchers from the University of Georgia conducted a study to see how long bacteria that cause food-borne illnesses can survive in certain foods. They used five different serotypes of salmonella that had been isolated from foods reported to have led to food-borne illnesses in the past. They found that not only the bacteria survived in dry foods, like cookie and cracker sandwiches, but also lived longer. In some cases they even survived over six months. The study shows that food-borne pathogens survive longer in food items with certain ingredients and by identifying the specific ingredients and stopping their use can help avoid outbreak of food-borne diseases. The study was published in the Journal of Food Protection.

Social factors linked to heart disease and diabetes risk in middle-aged women
Social factors may increase the risk of heart diseases and diabetes among middle-aged women, a Korean study suggests. Researchers from Yonsei University in Seoul and Hallym University in Chuncheon, South Korea, tracked 1,200 healthy South Korean women for a period of four years. They looked for social determinants of health that could have given some inkling of which women faced the highest risk of developing diabetes and heart diseases. The researchers found that middle aged women with low education and low income level were two times more likely to be diagnosed with heart diseases and diabetes. The study was published in the Journal of The North American Menopause Society.

Blood pressure pills can reduce risk of stroke and heart failure
Taking blood pressure pills regularly can reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes and related deaths significantly, shows a British study. Researchers from George Institute of Global Health at Oxford University identified 123 studies with 613,815 participants for their study and found that regular use of blood pressure pills keeps systolic blood pressure less than 130mm Hg. Every 10mm Hg reduction in systolic blood pressure reduces the risk of heart disease by about 20%, stroke and heart failure by 25%, and the risk of death from either of the two by 13%. The study appeared in the British journal The Lancet.

Demonstrators chanted slogans against the Saudi and Bahraini regimes and condemned the United States and United Kingdom for their support of the regimes, IRNA reported.
Thousands of protesters attended the rallies to declare their support for the Bahraini top Shia cleric Sheikh Isa Qassim and the Bahraini people.
The Bahraini security forces supported by the Saudi militia, reportedly attacked supporters of Senior Bahraini cleric Sheikh Issa Qassim in the al-Deraz region in the country on May 23.
One person died and 100 more were injured during the attack.
A Bahraini court on May 21, 2017 ordered seizure of Sheikh Issa Qassim's assets and properties and sentenced him to one year in prison.
Since February 14, 2011, thousands of anti-regime protesters have held numerous demonstrations in Bahrain on an almost daily basis, calling on the al-Khalifa rulers to relinquish power.
In March that year, troops from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, themselves repressive Arab regimes, were deployed to the country to assist Manama in its crackdown on protests. Hundreds of Bahraini activists have been imprisoned and suppressed.
On June 20, Bahraini authorities stripped Sheikh Qassim of his citizenship, less than a week after suspending the al-Wefaq National Islamic Society, the country's main opposition bloc, and dissolving the Islamic Enlightenment Institution founded by Qassim, and the opposition al-Risala Islamic Association.
Over the past few weeks, demonstrators have held sit-in protests outside Sheikh Qassim's home to denounce his citizenship removal.
Bahrain has also sentenced Sheikh Ali Salman, another revered opposition cleric, to nine years in prison on charges of seeking regime change and collaborating with foreign powers, which he has denied.
Sheikh Salman was the secretary general of the al-Wefaq National Islamic Society, which was Bahrain's main opposition bloc before being dissolved by the regime.
Things actually seem to be getting worse. The country's only remotely critical newspaper, Al Wasat, which was shut down in 2011, has now been ordered by the government to close its online edition too after criticizing the executions.
