I think people shouting that Averheim was the first server to capture Altdorf are wrong and do not actually understand how the system works. A post by Andy of Mythic explains what must be done to capture the city in this post. I'll quote what he says here :
Keep in mind that a city capture is a long, multi-stage process that requires all of the following be satisfied:
- You must capture two fortresses in tier 4 within 12 hours of each other.
- To capture those fortresses, you must seize and hold the neutral tier 4 and your opponent's zone in two of the three racial pairings (after which you only have 60 minutes to capture said racial fortress).
After all of this you fight in a contested, not captured, Altdorf/Inevitable City for control of the city, much in the same manner as a regular zone would be. In the case of Altdorf, after you have secured the city and the defending force is ejected from the city you have one hour to complete the Bright Wizard College and Sigmar's Temple public quests. In the case of The Inevitable City,The Monolith and The Sacellum. Should you fail to beat these two Encounters within the hour, the city will be reopened to the defenders and they will be allowed to wipe out any attackers left in their City.
- If you complete the two Encounters as an attacker however, you lock the city down for 20 -24 hours and get access to the King Instance..
- Contribution points towards the capture of a city are scaled based on the population of both sides, not just one lump sum. This ensures that a defending force with smaller numbers has a fighting chance to hold off the invaders. However, you can overcome the scaling with a sufficiently large force.
In this enormous thread on Warhammer Alliance many Destruction players, including the raid leader of the PRX guild claim having "captured" the city of Altdorf. Actually this is wrong they did not capture the city at all, they mainly succeeded at turning it contested and complete the scenario part. But if you read the explanation quote above you notice that to actually capture the city you have to either complete the Bright Wizard College and Sigmar's Temple or The Monolith and The Sacellum public quests.
Apparently this was not the case because in this same thread someone says that the timer ran out after they took the temple. At this time the city could not get captured anymore!
Anyway I guess these guys deserve a congrats, they somehow managed to get 300 people wake up early on a Sunday to play a video game, that is quite a performance.
Mythic already stated that they are going to do some fix because some aspect of this capital city siege were not working as intended. Let's all stay tuned for the next, this time I hope, REAL capital city capture. Show me the emperor head on a pike or it did not happen!

sfn command provides a collection of subcommands to handle stack
lifecycles as well as subcommands to aid in inspection of existing
Stacks can be created via
sfn using SparkleFormation templates or raw JSON
$ sfn create my-stack
sfn will prompt for selection of a template to build for this new stack. To
disable this prompting behavior, you can provide the path or name of the desired
$ sfn create my-stack --file my_template
By default
sfn will process and build SparkleFormation templates. To build a JSON
template, disable processing in the configuration file, or via flag:
$ sfn create my-stack --file ./my_template.json --no-processing
create command is only responsible for initiating the stack creation with the
remote provider API. This does not report back the success or failure of the actual
stack creation. To provide this behavior, the
create command will automatically poll
the stack's resource events. Once the stack as reached a completed state, the
command can properly notify of a success or failed state and exit with the proper
status code. The automatic polling behavior can be disabled:
$ sfn create my-stack --file my_template --no-poll
--apply-stack option allows providing the name of an existing
stack when creating or updating. Applying stacks is simply fetching
the outputs from the applied stacks and automatically defaulting the
set parameter of the new or updated stack. Outputs are matched
by name to the parameters of the target stack. This allows an easy
way to use values from existing stacks when building new stacks.
"Outputs": {
"LoadBalancerAddress": {
"Description": "Address of Load Balancer",
"Value": {
"Fn::GetAtt": [
"Parameters": {
"LoadBalancerAddress": {
"Type": "String",
"Default": "unset"
When creating StackB, if we use the
--apply-stack option:
$ sfn create StackB --apply-stack StackA
when prompted for the stack parameters, we will find the parameter
value for
LoadBalancerAddress to be filled in with the output
provided from StackA.
Stacks that are defined in a different region, or within a
different provider, can be applied by prefixing stack names with
the configured location name. Using the defined
.sfn configuration:
Configuration.new do
credentials do
provider :aws
aws_access_key_id ENV['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID']
aws_secret_access_key ENV['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY']
aws_region 'us-west-2'
locations do
ca_west do
provider :aws
aws_access_key_id ENV['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID']
aws_secret_access_key ENV['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY']
aws_region 'us-west-1'
Now, when creating a new stack (which uses the configured credentials
us-west-2) a stack from the
us-west-1 region can be applied
by prefixing the location name to the stack name:
$ sfn create StackB --apply-stack ca_west__StackA
NOTE: Location providers are not required to be common.
Example of stack creation:
Existing stacks can be updated via
$ sfn update my-stack
This will start an "in place" update. Only the parameters of the stack are updated. To update the template of the stack as well:
$ sfn update my-stack --file my_template
update command behaves like the
create command. It is only responsible for initiating
the request with the remote provider API. It will poll the stack events to detect final stack
state. The polling can be disabled:
$ sfn update my-stack --file my_template --no-poll
Example of stack update:
Existing stacks can be destroyed via
$ sfn destroy my-stack
By default a confirmation prompt will be provided prior to destroying an existing stack. This can be disabled by automatically confirming:
$ sfn destroy my-stack --yes
destroy command will poll the stack resource events until the stack has been successfully
deleted, or has reached a "complete" state (which would indicate a failure to destroy). The polling
can be disabled:
$ sfn destroy my-stack --yes --no-poll
destroy command also provides glob support when specifying stack names. This can make cleanup
very easy when multiple testing stacks may exist:
$ sfn destroy my-stack-*
This will destroy all stacks whose name start with
my-stack-. The command will prompt for confirmation
and provide a list of all matching stacks prior to destruction.
Example of stack destroy:
To list existing stacks:
$ sfn list
Example of a stack list:
A description of an existing stack will display resources allocated to the stack and any outputs that were defined within the stack's template:
$ sfn describe my-stack
If the stack contains nested stacks, it will display the resources and outputs for those stacks as well.
To describe only resources:
$ sfn describe my-stack --resources
To describe only outputs:
$ sfn describe my-stack --outputs
Example of a stack describe:
List the events genereted by the resources allocated to an existing stack:
$ sfn events my-stack
If the resources within the stack are currently being modified (via a
update, or
command, the events can be polled until the stack reaches a completed state:
$ sfn events my-stack --poll
Example of stack events:
Existing stacks can have their resources inspected via
sfn using the miasma model API. The
command provides the ability to directly access resource information where the miasma library has
modeling support enabled.
One builtin helper for the
inspect command is listing all compute resources available within a stack.
This includes standalone compute instances as well as compute instances attached to auto-scaling groups
defined within the stack.
$ sfn inspect my-stack --nodes
Example of stack node inspection:
When run with no options, the
inspect command will output the data model information of the stack:
$ sfn inspect my-stack
Individual items can be displayed using the attribute flag:
$ sfn inspect my-stack --attribute template
The attribute flag is gets applied to the miasma data model and will output the result of request. For example, if the stack consisted of one resource, and that resource was a compute instance, we could view the resource information from the orchestration API point of view:
$ sfn inspect my-stack --attribute "resources.all.first"
The information here will be sparse because the orchestration API only keeps a reference to the actual resource within its own system. Because the miasma library has compute modeling defined, we can utilize the library to automatically load the compute instance:
$ sfn inspect my-stack --attribute "resources.all.first.expand"
If only the addresses allocated to the compute instance were desired, that can be requested:
$ sfn inspect my-stack --attribute "resources.all.first.expand.addresses"
Example of stack attribute inspection
To display a generated template:
$ sfn print --file my_template
Templates can be validated with the remote provide API prior to creation:
$ sfn validate --file my_template
If the template is a JSON style template, disable processing:
$ sfn validate --file my_template --no-processing
Example of stack validate:
Template updates can be diff'ed against an existing stack's template to display information about what resource modifications will be introduced by the new template:
$ sfn diff my-stack --file my_template
Example of stack diff:
Creation or dependency graphs can be created via
sfn. Two styles of the graph can be
"creation" - Resource creation flow (default)
"dependency" - Resource dependency composition
To generate a graph:
$ sfn graph --file my_template --graph-style dependency
By default the graph command will create a Graphviz compatible dot format file. If Graphviz is installed on the local system, an image can be generated directly:
$ sfn graph --file my_template --graph-type png
To aid setup and configuration,
sfn provides a configuration helper:
$ sfn conf
This will display the current configuration. If no configuration file is present, the user can have one automatically generated for them:
$ sfn conf --generate

"I can do all things through him who strengthens me."
Philippians 4:13
This is the season for graduations, new beginnings not only for the graduates but for their families. For some, this is uncharted territory where there will be challenges, grand accomplishments, and seeing life from a whole new perspective. For others, there may be times of loneliness, or maybe hopelessness as this new adventure unfolds. God knows that every once in a while life can be a challenge to say the least. Through the prophet Isaiah, God says, "do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you be name and you are mine." (Isaiah 43:1) You are not alone, and you are not without God, because you have been blessed by the promise that God has made to you to be with you always, "even to the end of the age." The greatest blessing is received at the point where you accept the fact that the God who loves you will give you the strength, the wisdom, and the peace to "do all things," no matter how difficult the task or circumstance. Louis L'Mour once wrote that, "There will be a time when you believe that everything is finished; that will be the beginning." Put God, through our Risen Savior Jesus Christ at the very core of your being, and understand that all the strength and courage you need comes from the Lord, especially at times of new beginnings. God does know you by name and has loved you unconditionally from the time of your conception. May those who are graduating as well as their families and friends know that their strength comes through the Lord and that all have been incredibly blessed. The true celebration of the graduation season is the presence of God, who has been there throughout the journey, and will continue to be especially on the new adventures that lie ahead. It is by faith that mountains are moved and dreams achieved, because you "can do all things through him who strengthens you." Celebrate the adventure; celebrate God. Thank you Jesus!

Japan's largest telecommunications company on Tuesday said that by June all of its communications and support systems will be upgraded or changed to avoid the year 2000 (Y2K) problem.
Nippon Telegraph & Telephone (NTT) in April and July will commission auditors from outside the company to test its systems, NTT officials said.
The year 2000 problem is caused by software code that uses a two-digit field to represent a year. When the year changes, the software will represent 2000 as '00', which a system would interpret as '1900'. The miscalculation could cause the system to fail.
In general, Japanese companies are just now disclosing their plans for dealing with the Y2K problem. Many observers have voiced concern over the state of Japan's readiness for handling the problem, which some say, if not remedied, could shut down critical infrastructure such as telecommunications and electric power systems.
NTT officials said that as of December 1998 it had modified 92 per cent of its communications systems to resolve the Y2K problem.
The company may also assist other Japanese telecom carriers in dealing with the computer glitch to "create confidence in the nation's telecom infrastructure", officials said. NTT may simulate interconnections with other carriers to test overall Y2K readiness, they said.
The Japanese telco has been studying the Y2K problem since March 1995 and in November of that year launched a project to deal with the problem.

If you follow me on instagram (@JoicyMuniz) you probably saw on my stories and photos that I visited the amazing @wellahair studio in Copenhagen and tried their new product: the fantastic WELLAPLEX.
I tried the Wellaplex as a strengthening treatment and omg, the results were better than I could image! My hair feels so much healthier, more flexible and manageable. When getting your hair colored it's always important to keep it healthy with good products. Wellaplex is definitely the best I have tried!
The product is recommend if you plan to brighten your hair, if it unfortunately is damaged and you want it colored or even if you just feel that your hair is weak and want greater texture while it grows.
I highly recommend this product and following a treatment or getting a new color don't forget to have a great anti-damage home treatment. Your hair will be just amazing!

Duke Dumont did it to me. He remixed Debbie Debb's "When I hear music" before I did. From a very early point, I've always wanted to remix this song, before anyone caught on, but Duke Dumont already killed it. It's not very likely that I would have ever remixed that song, either. Geographic location? This guy is from London, and has gained many voices of respect from various respectable voices, notabaly Tiga. Indeed, he's signed under Turbo Recordings and will drop his first E.P. in June of 2008. You can find a medley/preview of the EP at his myspace. Check out his remix of the super classic Debbie Debbie joint, "When I Hear Music."
Duke Dumont - When I Hear Music
Secondly, reap the benefits of his crazy remix of Missy Elliot's - We Run This. This one is a killer. I first heard it on Casper C's Party Up! (Length of a Neu Rave) Mix more than a year ago, and I'm still very keen on it, especially the lead synth that kicks in at 1:44. J'm bien ça.
Missy Elliott - We Run This (Duke Dumont Remix) - Missy Elliott
And lastly, I've included a classic. Here, I mean classic as representative of its class. It's true -- before Lil' Jon, before Lil Scrappy, or Ludacris , there was Three Six Mafia. It is quintessential South. Get your Robitussin and pills out; it's that time.

Fintech, short for 'financial technology' is a term that encompasses a lot, yet most people seldom know what exactly it means. Some would argue that this is a big problem considering how much fintech will be changing all of our lives for the better in the future.
So what exactly is fintech? Fintech is new developments which will foster a change in the way we manage and use our money. Big milestones in this industry could change all manner of different aspects of our lives, from the way we buy groceries to how we pay our mortgages every month.
There's big money in changing how finances are managed throughout the world regardless of whether you're a business or just your average Joe. Fintech will lead the way to these changes and that's why we're going to take a look at 4 ways fintech will change all of our lives in the future.
Crypto Currency Will Make Transactions Seamless
Crypto currency is all the rage in 2017 with people all over the world investing in it – either to make a quick bit of cash or to push the technology developments further into the future.
The way the fintech aspect of crypto currency could affect us in the future is unbelievable. Banks could become obsolete due to the fact that crypto currencies are decentralized by nature. This means there could be a future where a computer program manages all of our transactions with no fees and very little margin for error.
DNA Will Be Used for Making Everyday Payments
One exciting area that fintech pioneers have been exploring is the use of DNA to authorise transactions and pay for goods and services. Imagine being able to use a retina scan of your eye or a fingerprint, or even full-on facial recognition, to be able to pay for your next grocery trip. Now that would be both convenient and extremely impressive.
Naturally, there are security issues which must be overcome to ensure that the machines handling this type of recognition can tell people apart accurately and consistently. However, once these fintech milestones are met, we can expect it to change the way we use our money in more ways than just one.
Cloud Technology Will Become Increasingly Secure
Cloud technology is the next stop in cyber security influenced by the developments made in the fintech field. As one of the fastest growing areas of technology out there, programmers are coming out with new ways to encrypt data and stop hackers in their tracks from accessing sensitive business and customer information.
By storing all of our data online, we'll also be able to access it from anywhere, at any time, and with less and less concern for security. Cloud computing will make work efficiency go through the roof, so you can expect nothing less than constant updates to this type of tech.
Phishing Attempts & Online Scams Will Rapidly Decrease
We've all heard of someone who has been the victim of an online scam, usually some type of email phishing scam that reached their personal inbox. Phishing scams tend to try and appear as a legitimate company that hosts sensitive information, like Paypal or your bank, and then use that to request information like passwords and bank account details.
Fintech solutions to this may mark the end of widespread phishing scams as algorithms will soon be able to analyse emails for tell-tale signs of scams. Once these algorithms are advanced enough, we could theoretically see the end of phishing scams as we know it!
Fintech is the Future
As you can see, there are so many areas where fintech will make a genuine change to our lives in the future – the ones we mentioned are just the tip of the iceberg!
We hope you now have a better understanding

Colton Haynes' character on Arrow, Roy Harper, obviously is significant to DC Comics fans. In those comics, Roy was Green Arrow's crimefighting partner and whether you call him Speedy, Arsenal or Red Arrow, he's more than proven he can hold his own.
With Haynes promoted to a series regular for Arrow: Season 2, it's clear his story will be developing in a big way. I spoke to Hanyes about Season 1's memorable finale and what he hopes to see happen next for his character.
IGN TV: That finale went big, obviously. They didn't hold back at all.
Colton Haynes: No they did not, and they had to take a lot out. Some very pivotal scenes were left out to draw out more character arcs into the next season.
IGN: Would any of those scenes be ones that could still be included next season?
Haynes: I think maybe they're going to rewrite them, and add them in a different way. But we filmed 11 days for the finale, and it was just a madhouse. I felt like I was on the set of Transformers. We shot on the old Watchmen set, and it was insane -- cameras flying in through cranes, and it was just amazing.
IGN: Do you have any idea when we're going to pick up? Obviously there's so much to deal with, with what's happened to the city.
Haynes: There's a big time lapse. We're going to pick up a little later, not right off the bat. So we're going to have to deal with The Glades and what's happening to them. I think there's going to be a point where Roy's going to have to figure out what's going to be next. Is he hopefully becoming Oliver's sidekick? What is that going to mean for Thea, because obviously she has no idea that her older brother is the vigilante? There's a lot of ways it can go, and also there's a lot to be said about what Willa's character Thea can become.
IGN: Those of us who have read the comic book are eager to see your character evolve in that direction. The finale had a big moment when Roy made the decision to stay and help people.
Haynes: It's so fun to play the characters that have the hard exteriors but really have a heart. I've been lucky to get to play a character like this, and it's really nice to have the hero quality and also to know that there's a lot that's going to need saving. So I have a feeling that Oliver's going to need a little bit of help and isn't going to want to take that on by himself.
Stephen Amell Talks Arrow: Season 2
IGN: We've only seen Oliver and Roy interact a bit so far. Have they given you any indication that we will see more of that as the season begins?
Haynes: We are going to have a really great moment in the premiere of Season 2 with Oliver and Roy; I do know that. And a very, very pivotal moment between Roy and Thea. Yeah, it's going to set it up really nicely.

Because it's almost summer, it's hot, and I'm writing a love story (really? me? something must be wrong with me :P), I've been listening mainly to musicals lately. French musicals. Notre Dame de Paris (original Paris cast & Mogador Theater cast), Autant en emporte le vent, Romeo et Juliette (De la haine a l'amour & Les enfants de Verone). Dunno why in French they're called "comedies musicales" when they're all tragedies, but whatever. And, yes, I know it's not a good idea because they leave you all depressed, first because there's no happy ending, and second because whenever you try to sing along your voice can never go as high as the singers' do. At least mine doesn't. Anyway my playlist looks something like this:
Notre Dame de Paris
Autant en emporte le vent
Romeo et Juliette
And to end a few ballads from The Fairchilds' Our Revolution album: Unbreakable, High, Turn Back Time.
Yep, you can start weeping now! :)

Now that we are officially into 2016, I have started thinking about what my one big thing that I want to accomplish this year would be, besides completing school, getting married, and possibly moving. I have also been seeing lots of emails from other entrepreneurs about what they are debuting, sending out, and working on this year. I am feeling inspired to do the same.
But what is it that I really want to share with all of you? That is the difficult question. There is just so much that I want to share! But I cannot share all of it at once. I just don't have the time to work on everything I want to do.
With the help of my friend Jasmine, and some brainstorming, I have been able to whittle down what it is exactly that I want to work on and share with all of you in 2016.
And it is going to be a surprise!
All I am going to say is that it will be a course or class of sorts where you can learn multiple things. Why say anything at all then? First, to get you excited about what is to come! Second, to help keep me accountable for finishing it! (I'm notorious for starting things but not finishing them. Too many ideas, too little time.)
So, I am asking you to help keep me accountable with your excitement! Ask me how I am doing, ask me when it will debut, etc!
More importantly though, I will be giving out hints and sneak peeks as the project progresses. Make sure to follow this blog, Instagram, and Facebook so that you don't miss out on any of the news or hints I will be posting!
Are you excited as I am? Leave a comment below and tell me about it! Or leave your guesses below!

I've seen a couple of blog posts about the Last Lecture of Dr. Randy Pausch at Carnegie Mellon.
For me, at least, it was more notable for what wasn't said. In the video, Dr. Pausch seems to be upbeat and even chipper. Even on my best days, I'm not nearly as confident or positive.
Maybe one's perspective changes when confronted with a terminal illness, or maybe he was feeding off the energy of the audience (one of the things I enjoy about teaching), but I think it's too much of a longshot to count on a personality change when confronted with such a challenge. Indeed, if I recall correctly from Tuesdays with Morrie, even Morrie Schwarz allowed himself a few minutes of sadness and self-pity every day.
Which reminded me that while we can all admire and be inspired from people like Dr. Pausch and Morrie, in the end, particularly in our most vulnerable moments, we have to live and deal with who we are. And our choices should probably realistically reflect our tendencies and limitations.
Which, as you might expect, got me thinking....
Which.....eventually....reminded me that I've been to a Last Lecture, although we didn't know it till after the fact.
In the fall of 1989 as a college junior, I took Analytical Mechanics from Dr. Lewis Salter. Dr. Salter, of course, was a man of a different generation, born in 1926 and spent most of his life in liberal arts colleges in the Midwest. He was President of Wabash College from 1978-1989, but if he was famous it was certainly in a pre-internet and more centralized media environment. (There seems to have been no New York Times obituary -- the only search result is in -- what else -- an article about Wabash remaining all male.)
Some time in 1988 or early 1989 he too was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and must've thought about his Last Lecture. His decision was to resign the Presidency and return to teaching. We were a class of 8 physics majors, and if I recall correctly, his only teaching course. It was a bit of a thrill to have a college president calibre person as an instructor. After all, two years before he had "rang in" our freshman class with the 1830's Caleb Mills bell.
Dr. Salter was, as you might expect, "old school": chalk and blackboard for him, paper and pencil for students, and 'thinking' for us all. If he lectured from notes, they were minimal -- his was the 19th and early 20th century style of lecturing. But it's the style I admire the most when done right. Like Tibetan Mandalas, physical truths were shared only to be erased from the blackboard to be carried forth by the students.
Sometime in October of that year, Dr. Salter became too ill to teach and died within a week of missing his first class. Our replacement instructor was a retired professor of the same vintage. We had a moment of silence, then on with the lecture.
I had heard that we was still working on research problems "to the end", and only now (yes, thanks to the internet) learned that he published a paper posthumously on solutions to Schrödinger's equation. This equation, incidentally, was proposed by Erwin Schrödinger in 1926, the year Dr. Salter was born. It mentions right in the abstract that "The approach is aimed at student exploration...."
Dr. Salter was only 63 when he died (he seems much older in my memory), and he did not have any young children at that point in his life. So I imagine that to some extent he had greater choice in how his last year would be spent. And even though he chose to return to an ordinary classroom of Waugh Hall overlooking the autumn tinged Wabash mall, his Last Lecture deserves mention on the 'blogosphere' as much as anyone's.

Here is a little heart quilt I made in 2002, called "The Primary Emotion."
Here is a quilt I designed and made in 2008, in honor of our 28 years of marriage. The name of the quilt is "He Loves Me."
Now we are going on 35 years, and guess what? He still loves me!

We were hit with THE storm in the middle of the night. I usually listen to the storm reports and think "really?". Most of the time these storms don't pan out the way the media reports them. Here's my shout out for today. Listen to them! I have at least 10 inches of snow and it's coming down in buckets. We're due for another 9 hours of snow, up to an inch an hour. I haven't seen a snow plow yet. You might want to do what you can to get ready for it. Stay safe and warm.

We have gathered some useful tips to help in your research and writing of winning academic papers. Explore and use them to find research and writing approaches that suit you best!
Before you start writing you need to have a clear plan, meaning you should acquire insights into your basic goals, audience interests, and the up-to-date trends. It is crucial to find a starting point of your research. You have to begin with selecting a topic of your interest and narrow it down to make sure that you can cover it entirely.
You should look through different kinds of sources (books, journals, magazines, newspapers, encyclopedias, etc) to determine what kind of information you need to include.

Riverdale Review 09/18/2008
Against the backdrop of a faltering economy and a community development boom, neighborhood residents flocked to the Conservative Synagogue Adath Israel this past Sunday morning for a forum on the state of real estate in Riverdale.
The panel consisted of five brokers from local real estate agencies and one bank: Norma Gordon of Koppell River Realty, Vasco DaSilva of Halstead Property, Brian Scott Cohen of Wells Fargo, Ellen Feld of Susan Goldy, Barbara Jurist of Sopher Realty, Linda Justus of Robert E. Hill, and Fred Levy of Halstead Property. Each of the panelists, who prefaced their statements by noting that they were also Riverdale residents, weighed in on several important topics close to the hearts of the audience.
The first question posed to panelists solicited their opinion on the market trend of Riverdale real estate. The consensus was that there is still a healthy interest in homes here, even if, as Halstead agent Vasco DaSilva pointed out, prospective buyers are taking longer to Òpull the triggerÓ and make a decision. The high cost of Manhattan living, along with the easy commute to the city and the new condominiums, are attracting many young families, added SopherÕs Barbara Jurist.
Ironically, the panelists agreed, it is the often grueling and invasive nature of co-op boards resented by so many that have protected Riverdale from the foreclosures that have taken place in other parts of the country: because co-op owners are forced to disclose their finances to prove that they can afford the purchase, there have not been defaults on payments.
Panelists responded in a similarly optimistic way to an audience member's asking how the construction of new condominiums has affected the market. Agents concurred that most of the new buildings, such as Solaria and Riverstone, are of very high quality and will attract residents of high caliber who will only add positively to the community. Agents also scoffed at the fear that the new buildings will exacerbate RiverdaleÕs parking problem. ÒParking is an issue but not because of the condos, stated one broker. ÒThese buildings can accommodate parking. The parking issue, however, is one that should be addressed by local elected officials.Ó
Joe Korff, the developer of Solaria, added from the audience that his luxury high-rise has Òmore than adequate parkingÓ and that Riverdale is still considered Òone of the hot spots of New York City.Ó
DaSilva added that RiverdaleÕs accessibility is a key to its desirability, as are recent additions such as the new Starbucks on Johnson Avenue, where, he noted, he brings clients to discuss things after taking them to view a property.
Other questions were quite pointed. One woman in the audience asked about the fate of empty storefronts, such as the recently vacated Paperbacks Plus on Riverdale Avenue. HalsteadÕs Fred Levy stated that only the owner of the spaces knows the answer, leaving everyone else Òin the dark.Ó
Another Riverdalian elicited laughs when he asked whether agents are willing to cut their commissions so as to help people afford to buy homes here. Agents were quick to defend their commissions as deserved, given the expertise and knowledge they bring to the table, but several agreed that even commissions are negotiable.
A final question was for panelists to name the best five co-op buildings in Riverdale, factoring location, value, and quality. While several agents replied that it was impossible to answer such a questions without knowing the priorities of the buyer, Barbara Jurist rattled off a few of her top picks, which included the Whitehall, the Solaria, 555 Kappock Street, and several buildings along Palisade Avenue near Metro North.
Panelists encouraged audience members to contact them at their offices for more information, and concluded on an optimistic note.
ÒRiverdale does not reflect the national news and is fairly resistant to market trends,Ó said one broker. ÒWeÕre warm, not cool, going into 2009.Ó

Chaudhuri Announces Women's Rights Policy
RALEIGH, N.C. – Democratic State Senate candidate Jay Chaudhuri today announced his plan to stand up for women's rights in the North Carolina General Assembly. Chaudhuri said he will fight to protect a woman's right to choose and will work to make sure women receive equal pay for equal work.
"I am one hundred percent pro-choice and committed to defending Planned Parenthood," said Chaudhuri. "In the State Senate, I will fight the extremists in the legislature who want to put politicians between women and their doctors."
Chaudhuri has a record of standing up for women as General Counsel to State Treasurer Janet Cowell. He made diversity an important part of his legal and corporate governance team. Chaudhuri also advocated for more diversity in the corporate boardroom, organizing and leading a group of nine pension funds with more than $1 trillion in assets under management to petition the Securities and Exchange Commission to establish rules that better disclose corporate board diversity.
Chaudhuri's women's rights policy is focused on eight issues he will fight for as State Senator:
- Fight to protect women's reproductive rights;
- Push for the Equal Pay Act to ensure that women are paid the same wage as men for similar work;
- Advocate for paid family leave;
- Raise the minimum wage;
- Restore childcare subsidies for working families;
- Protect women from gun violence;
- Encourage young women to pursue careers in science and math; and
- Advocate for diversity on state boards and commissions.
Chaudhuri's women's rights policy can be viewed here: http://www.jayfornc.com/issues/women.
Jay Chaudhuri is running in the March 15 Democratic primary election to represent District 16 in the North Carolina State Senate. To learn more, please visit www.JayforNC.com.

Chipotle Marks 20th Anniversary with Earnings Beat
Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE:CMG) closed the regular session up 0.26 percent and climbed as much as 4.32 percent higher in post-market trading, after reporting second quarter earnings that came in ahead of expectations. Revenue increased 18.2 percent on the year to $816.8 million, beating the average analyst estimate of $802.78 million. Adjusted earnings increased 10.2 percent on the year to $2.82 per share, beating the average analyst estimate of $2.81 per share.
The good news didn't end with the top- and bottom-line beats. Comparable restaurant sales increased 5.5 percent in the second quarter, up 3.4 percent in the first half of the year. Restaurant-level operating margins did decrease slightly to 27.6 percent in the second quarter, and 27 percent for the first half.
Part of Chipotle's success can be attributed to its relentless pursuit of quality within its industry. At a glance, many consumers dismiss Chipotle and its peers as unhealthy fast food, but the company is working hard to change that perception.
In a June 18 press release, the company announced plans to serve more than 15 million pounds of locally grown produce in its restaurants in 2013, up from 10 million pounds in 2012. The company commented that it is the only national restaurant company with a "significant commitment to using local produce on a large scale."
"We are changing the way people think about and eat fast food," commented Steve Ells, founder, chairman and co-CEO of Chipotle. "That means pushing ourselves to find the best quality ingredients — ingredients that have traditionally been available only in high end restaurants and specialty food markets — and making them available in a way that is accessible and affordable."
Chipotle's push for locally sourced food may be partially responsibly for slightly narrower margins, but steadily increasing sales growth suggests that the strategy is working.

Make the most of this Champion Hurdle 2018 tip with one of our exclusive free bet offers.
The AccaDoo boys know it's never too early to be thinking about the Cheltenham Festival, and we've got our Champion Hurdle 2018 bet for sorted already.
Buveur Dair won the 2017 edition for Nicky Henderson, and we are taking the 5/1 on the pair repeating the trick next year.
In finishing second in the Champion Hurdle for the third time, Buveur Dair's admirable stablemate My Tent Or Yours provides a useful yardstick with which to rate the merit of Buveur Dair's victory. The AccaDoo boys reckon it was at least the equal of Annie Power's win in 2016, and also of the mighty Faugheen's victory in 2015.
The fact that Buveur Dair is only a six-year-old bodes well, as there could still be improvement to come, but it may well be the case that his current level of form will be more than adequate to win the Champion Hurdle 2018 too, because the two-mile hurdling division does not look particularly strong at present.
My Tent Or Yours will be 11 next season, Faugheen and Annie Power are both out with long-term injuries and it must be more likely than not they will not race again, the mare Apple's Jade may be a contender but could want to defend the mares' race crown she won this season, while Willie Mullins' mares Limini and Let's Dance will surely be targeted at winning that mares' race title back from Gordon Elliott's Apple's Jade.
Furthermore, the top horses from the 2017's novice hurdle races – Willoughby Court and Neon Court from the Neptune, and Labaik and Melon from the Supreme – will have to improve mightily to trouble the current champ.
With a dearth of credible contenders and back at a track Henderson's charge has run so well at throughout his career, the AccaDoo boys think the 5/1 on Buveur Dair is a good price. And we fancy Henderson will be repeating the journey to the winner's enclosure in the Champion Hurdle 2018, and we're getting stuck in already.

Each emotion has its boundaries. You'll know when you're deeply feeling an emotion, just on the edge, or on the outside looking in.
You can be fooled by emotions. You might still be under an emotional effect without realizing it. It waits just beneath to surface to be revealed by a future event, at a time perhaps not of your choosing.
The element of time is associated with emotions too. Sometimes you'll never get over an emotional experience. You can learn to live with that reality or deal with it in less effective ways.
You can meet someone who provides a new perspective about a similar life experience and the emotion you thought you understood now seems rejuvenated, requiring more deliberation towards a new acceptance.
The boundaries or limits of each emotion seem to be flexible. Whatever controls are attempted to influence the emotion may work or not depending on how changed the individual is to new stimuli.
The mosaic of all emotions within each person evolve and change as new life experiences and new people are encountered. Stay attuned to your feelings, they flow within you on their own.

Holy cow. It's hard to believe but the school year is over. To say that my kids are thrilled would indeed be an understatement. School would have ended last week, but thanks to several (enjoyable) snow days they tacked on a bunch of days ending school oddly on a Monday. Our celebration usually involves either pizza out somewhere or a BBQ. But since my son's summer baseball has already started (does stuff ever end?) and a game was scheduled, we only had time for a BBQ.
- Hotdogs-beef franks are the only ones my kids will eat, specifically Oscar Mayer (they are not "snappy" dogs, you know what I mean?).
- The beef-always a combination of ground sirloin and ground chuck. I will usually buy a pound of sirloin and a pound of chuck from the supermarket, combine them in a bowl with salt and pepper and then form patties.
Hotdog cooking is pretty basic: throw them on the grill, turn occasionally, when grill marks are to your liking, remove. Hotdogs are pre-cooked, so you are just basically warming them up.Now hamburgers on the other hand take a little more thought. In order to achieve the perfect level of doneness while retaining the perfect level of juiciness, some basic rules need to be followed:
- Handle the meat as little as possible. Over working the meat can create tough, compacted patties. Just handle the meat long enough to combine whatever additions you've decided upon, form the patties then let them be.
- Always add salt to your meat, a good rule is about a teaspoon for every pound of beef.When the patties are on the grill,
- DO NOT press down with your spatula. This is a tough one for a lot of people. I know myself that when I was in High School and proudly wore the paper cap of McDonalds, we pressed down on the patties. It has been a hard habit to break despite the fact that my years at McDonalds were a really long time ago (think pre-electronic cash register). Any hoo, pressing down on the patties while they are on the grill presses all the tasty juices out and can create major grill flare-ups that make for blackened, not-so-tasty patties.
- If you are adding cheese, do so immediately after flipping the patties. If you forget the cheese (which I did nationally on the Sutter Home Build a Better Burger Challenge a few years ago on Food Network) DO NOT return the patties to the grill to melt the cheese as it will make your patties overcooked and too dry. Just suck it up and place the cheese on cold, the warmth of the patty will probably melt the cheese enough to make it ok.
1/2 pound ground beef sirloin
1/2 pound ground beef chuck
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Oil to brush the grill
4 Sourdough burger rolls, split
1/2 cup mayonnaise
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1 cup baby arugula leaves
1 tomato, cut into 4 slices
Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
In a large bowl, combine the ground sirloin, ground chuck, kosher salt and the ground black pepper. Form the meat into four equal sized patties. Lightly brush the grill rack with oil. Place the patties on the grill rack and cook 4-5 minutes per side for medium rare, or cook until desired doneness. During the last 2 minutes of grilling, arrange the rolls split side down on the edges of the grill to lightly toast.
Stir the mayonnaise and the blue cheese together in a small bowl.
To assemble the burgers, place the arugula leaves on the bottom half of each roll, evenly dividing. Top the arugula with a patty, followed by a tomato slice. Place a generous dollop of the blue cheese mayo on top of each followed by the roll tops.
Yield: 4 burgers

The Fourth GenerationeBook - 2015
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
This is the fourth and final book in the Family Tree Series by Ann Martin. I really enjoyed all four books. The family starts in Maine, next generation moves to New York City, the next generation to Princeton, NJ, and in the final book they return to Maine. The authors deals with lots of family issues: an abusive father, death of an infant sibling, a depressed parent, death of a childhood best friend, relocating, mother/daughter friction, death of a parent, single parenting and child abduction. The family comes back together despite their grief, differences and geographical distance. The author shows the importance of families.
The final book of the Family Tree series wrapped up the quartet very nicely, and threw in a few surprises! I can't wait to purchase this entire series since the books cover so much from death of a parent to mental illness and many other tough issues. Would be a great series to discuss with older elementary-aged children.

As a pharmacist, I talk with a lot of people about their medication concerns. Here are some of the most common questions I get when it comes to managing medications:
Just because you or someone in your family is sick doesn't mean they need an antibiotic. Some illnesses, though, can only be treated with antibiotics. You may have heard recent chatter that a full course of antibiotics is no longer necessary. However, more research is needed until this is proven true.
Stopping antibiotics too soon could leave bacteria in your body, which can multiply and make you or your loved one sicker—it can also lead to antibiotic resistance. Always take antibiotics for as long as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
First, recognize that when you take medication in pregnancy, you're "treating for two," as the CDC indicates. Talk you your pregnancy care provider about the safety of any prescribed or over-the-counter medications you may need while growing your baby. As a general rule, experts advise against trusting online lists of what may or may not be safe in pregnancy.
Also, your pharmacist can share their recommendations at each stage of pregnancy. For example, a medication that's considered safe during the 1st trimester may not be safe in the 2nd or 3rd trimesters, and vice versa.
For liquid medicines, most pharmacies will supply a syringe or cup at no cost and your pharmacist can mark the fill line if you're unsure or if the directions are difficult to understand. The safest way to dose liquid medicines is to measure them out in milliliters (ml) into a medication-specific measuring device.
If the dose prescribed isn't given in milliliters, ask your pharmacist to convert it for you. If a dose involves splitting a tablet or pill, use a splitting device to ensure you evenly divide the doses.
For babies, toddlers and young children, medicine is dosed according to their weight, so it's important to give the proper amount. Use a medication-specific measuring cup, dropper or spoon. Teaspoons are for cooking and can vary greatly in the amount they provide—they're not safe for dosing medicine.
For babies, take it slow, providing a little bit of the medication at a time just inside their cheek with a dropper or infant spoon. Don't try to have an infant or toddler swallow an entire dose at once. Measure it out and then using the dropper or spoon provided give small portions, ensuring they're swallowing as you go, with rest breaks between each mini-dose.
For older children, try making it into a game, or give them a reward for taking their medicine (a simple high-five might even do the trick!). Also, ask your pharmacist about flavoring liquid medicines.
If the medicine doesn't all go down, don't re-dose. Some drugs are harmful if too much is given. It's better to be safe than to give too much. If this continues for multiple doses, talk to your healthcare provider or pharmacist about other ways to treat your child's condition.
Call Poison Control at 800.222.1222 to reach the closest call center, which is staffed by healthcare specialists specifically trained to handle these situations. Your information remains confidential and the services are free.
Never induce vomiting as this can potentially cause more problems and isn't proven to improve symptoms or get rid of toxins quicker.
All prescription and over-the-counter medications have expiration dates. While out-of-date medicine may not cause you any harm (though it could), it can't be guaranteed to do its job, either.
For prescription meds, the general rule is to throw it away if it's been more than a year from the day it was filled. For antibiotics, often you'll get more medication than you need for the full course, throw it away after you finish the prescribed amount. Most liquid antibiotics expire after 10-14 days—don't save leftovers for the next time you feel sick.
Check with your local resources to see if they have places you discard unused medication; typically fire or police stations have programs for this. Or follow this advice from the FDA on safe disposal:
Certain medicines like opioids shouldn't be disposed of this way; always check how to get rid of specific unused medications at bit.ly/FDAsafedisposal.
Never give your child aspirin, as it's been linked with a serious condition called Reye's syndrome. It's especially dangerous for children with chickenpox or the flu. Talk to your pharmacist about other medicines that contain aspirin.

By: Dena Lester May well 30, 2014 Art These days, a variety of art types are obtainable to express your emotions inside your drawing & painting. My decision of e-marketing strategy" is based on my interests in marketing and project management. Considering the fact that a business degree requires me to study each business and non-business subjects, I will also be writing on non-business. They also make positive that the business timely meets its obligations and commitments to the workers. Ethics is an important subject today for which men and women spend focus when troubles surface for firms, organizations and the individuals who operate for them. To establish business internationally firms initially have to full lots of formalities which naturally is a tedious process.
For those that are looking for top quality content and articles then Continuous Content, Textbroker or hiring a copywriting skilled are the routes most frequently taken. In 10 years I would like to run my business complete time, with revenues from this stream as my primary salary. An E-Marketing approach for a business contains the approaches and the mediums of communication for a business. HubPages has been a continual competitor to Squidoo (before it was shutdown in late 2014) and is one more excellent web-site to publish and create articles to make revenue on the net.
Business activity could be concerned with marketing or distribution of goods in which case it is referred to as as commercial activity. Making trust and integrity amongst the consumers and employees is the fourth activity of business ethics. With income getting split 50/50 with the article author, once you publish more than 50 articles this amount increases to 55{cb9494e009c82f22fc08cf53c796b69102b6ae3e63f41dd7d80c6713508f3a22} and ultimately 60{cb9494e009c82f22fc08cf53c796b69102b6ae3e63f41dd7d80c6713508f3a22} right after you have 100 higher top quality articles. In the context of management and organizational behavior, ethics are defined as the values and rules that an employee is committed to.
Infobarrel enables you to create some impressive articles with tools that are straightforward adequate for anybody to get a grasp of. Infobarrel is a fantastic stepping stone for any freelance writer to make cash on line writing articles. Some people believe that ethics involve a superficial atmosphere where the rules of their life do not apply to their operate atmosphere. This assignment permitted me to get a small more insight on my communication organizing skills for marketing and e-marketing. It is good to know that they nonetheless allow folks to use social media in marketing. I am now writing e-books, articles and blogs for clients worldwide, and have in no way been happier.
It was excellent that you loved Cats and employed that passion to write and sell articles in that niche. And wow- all of the course of action and resources you've shared in this overview make it an Great reference point for anybody out to start out an online business in Malaysia. This term my non-business articles will be mainly Psychology, Computer Programing (C++), and Political Sciences. In a nut shell the Balance Sheet reveals the financial position, the wealth as effectively as the assets held by a business.
The topic of qualified ethics applies to these people recognized to be in a expert occupation which encompasses specific positions in private market along with government. We spoke earlier of CCM's requirement for every person to be registered, to do business on-line. If you are a house cook, for example, you can go for a business related to the culinary business.

- We are currently accepting applications for the 2018-2019 school year. If you are interested in full-time enrollment for 2018-19, please apply here. If you are interested in part time enrollment, and other flexible enrollment options, see this.
- Rolling enrollment: Real Life ALC offers rolling enrollment. You can enroll your child any time during the year.
- Tuition is offered on a sliding scale, making us one of the most affordable private schools in Tampa. Tuition is generally paid in monthly installments from August – June. Learn more about our tuition process here. Flexible enrollment options are paid differently- be sure to contact us about these options.
Enrollment Process:
Step 1: Research!
We are not a typical school! ALCs are committed to trusting children to direct their own education. Explore the ALC educational model and our comprehensive FAQ page on the ALC Network site. Learn from some of the videos, books, and articles that have inspired the this approach to learning and community. Dig into the content in our About section. Check us out on Facebook and Twitter.
Step 2: Review our Tuition Info Page
We offer tuition on a sliding scale. Please read through our Tuition Info Page to understand our collaborative, trust-based tuition policy.
Step 3: Attend a Parent Interest Night
RSVP to a Parent Interest Night to learn more about our ALC and have your questions answered. You may (in fact we encourage you to) attend a Parent Interest Night before applying.
Step 4: Visiting Week(s)
Real Life ALC, Tampa requires each prospective new student to attend a paid visiting week before being admitted to the school as a student, when applying after the school year has started.
The visiting week allows the student to experience what it is like to be an ALC student and allows everyone to determine if our ALC is a good fit. Visiting week preferences can be chosen in the enrollment application. The fee for the visiting week will be prorated from the tuition you would pay for the year, and is due on the first day of the visiting week. Visiting weeks are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. We limit the number of visiting children each week.
Step 6: Final Enrollment
After the visiting week, enrollment will either be offered or it will be communicated that ALC cannot serve the applicant at this time.
When enrollment is offered, we will ask for your first and last month's installments of your annual tuition (if making monthly installments) or your semester or annual payment. Enrollment will be officially confirmed when the admission form is submitted and money is received, ensuring your student/s a place at the school for the year. Please review the Tuition page and fill out the Tuition Worksheet to determine how much your child/ren's tuition will be.

The Power of the New Year
New Year's day is almost here and I feel a quiet optimism building.
In this time of reflection I feel anticipation for things to come. This week is a time when we look back and take stock of events of the past twelve months but we also look forward to a new beginning. It's a time to evaluate lessons learned and to incorporate that wisdom into our plans for the future.
The transition from one year to another is a great time to mentally and emotionally shed any mistakes from the past. We can look ahead with optimism and renewed energy knowing that the past is history. Nature has it's cycles. Those cycles may be more difficult to see in our artificially controlled, technologically dominated world, but they are there. In the dead of winter we have time to slow down and dream about what the spring might bring. That is the power behind the idea of the New Year. We are past the shortest day of the year and now we begin the march towards the warmth and sunshine after the cold.
This is a time for looking back, and a time for looking ahead. We have the opportunity to consciously set ourselves on a path of our choosing. I think that's one of the reasons resolutions are so popular for New Year's day. Honoring the ritual of the new year allows us to actively participate in life's march forward in time. We become intentional. We glimpse some greatness in ourselves. We believe we can achieve all those things to which we aspire… and we should. There is power in forward motion. The past is the past, the future is ours to create. The new life that comes forth in a few months from now calls to us, even in the cold of winter.
I'm looking forward to this New Year with particular optimism. 2014 was a building year for me personally and for Pitch for Success as a business. I'm looking to see some of the long, slow groundwork pay off in the next few months. I'm already making plans and starting to get in the groove. I'm looking forward to all the people I can help and the things we can accomplish together.
The longer I coach and teach the more I realize how important that aspect of my 'job' is to me. Not just because I make more when I help more people… but because that's what makes the work worth doing. Watching people understand that there is another way to make connections and build relationships is exciting. It can also be life and business changing. I'm seeing that happen more and more. That, more than anything, revs me up and creates excitement about what will come in the new year.
Here's hoping 2015 brings you all the challenge, joy and success you can stand.
Viva La 2015!

Gratitude for the rough spots
This time of year we are often mindful of what we have. Many of us are thankful for our health, our wealth, our position, our opportunities and most of all our families. Some of us have all of these, far too many people don't. We all do have one thing to be grateful for, however… our struggles.
The longer I spend on this spinning world of ours the more I realize that I wouldn't be here writing this message to you if it were not for the trials and tribulations I've faced. The things that kept me up at night were often the things that have defined my actions and my commitment to move forward. I believe in constantly learning and improving… not as an ego thing, but rather as a way to get every ounce of value I can out of the years I have. The biggest lessons I've learned have always come through the biggest challenges I've faced in my life. That is true in my business and professional life as well as in my personal life.
The relationships I've developed that mean the most to me were often hard won and valuable beyond measure because of that fact. Formed in the crucible of clashing wills, ideas and ambition to make a difference in the world, the professional relationships I lean on the most have been tested time and again… they are the ones that not only survive, but thrive. These are the people I'm truly grateful for every day.
As we all take a breather this week and sit down to share whatever we have with those that mean the most to us, I hope we can remember that it is good to appreciate those things that challenge us. The situations and relationships that draw out the best, and the worst, in us are the ones that force us to make a decision… to give in to being mediocre or to strive for something better, something more.
I am thankful every day that I have the opportunity to do what I love. I have the ability to learn new things, and the ability to share those things in a way that makes a difference in people's lives. I help people build livelihoods, send their kids to school, take care of relatives, have fun on vacation and build something that can help make this world a little bit better. I love helping you all grow your businesses… it has great meaning for me. I am grateful for that opportunity to help make a difference that matters.
So as I sit down for dinner this Thanksgiving, I will be thinking of you and raising a glass to toast your success and your health. I hope that you too can be grateful for the rough spots in your life and share the best of yourself with those that mean the most to you this holiday.

Treat your Customers to the Unexpected
My new favorite restaurant is a sandwich shop called Which Wich.
First, they have a great selection of sandwiches. Like the Elvis Wich (creamy peanut butter, bacon, sweet honey & fresh banana), or the Thank You Turkey (turkey breast, savory stuffing & cranberry sauce) , or my personal favorite, Bacon and Egg with avocado. Add a hand made banana milkshake and it's lunch heaven.
The second reason? The crew is off the hook awesome. Manny Toor, the store owner, has hired and trained a group of young people who are genuinely fantastic at customer service. One clever thing they do is to have you write your name on your sandwich bag when you order. No number calling at Which Wich. I'm a regular, so the crew learned my name quickly. I call it the "Cheers Factor", after the television sitcom. When I walk in at least two of the crew say "Hi, Eric, welcome back". I like that. A lot. And I'm not alone. There are a lot of regulars at Which Wich in Leesburg these days.
I like giving Manny a plug here. He earned it. I can tell by the way he interacts with his team that they respect him and, more importantly, he respects them. There are no bad attitudes at Manny's Which Wich. He leads by example. If it's busy, Manny is on the line making sandwiches with the rest of the crew. Not reluctantly either. He enjoys it. He always waves hello to customers he recognizes, and has a warm smile for those he doesn't. The rest of the team follows his example.
So what's this got to do with you? Manny has mastered great customer service. We have a lot to learn from his example. He runs a tight, friendly ship. Not only that, but recently he took it up a notch. He surprised me.
My birthday was last week. I came in for lunch and Manny was there with a warm "Happy Birthday" greeting. Nice touch. Then he bought me lunch… AND super sized my sandwich and milkshake. Manny took that opportunity to make a regular customer feel even more valued. That simple gesture made my day. It also made me realize how many times we, as business people, miss opportunities to go that extra step for our customers.
So, I challenge you to do the unexpected this week. It doesn't matter what business you're in. You can find a way to let your customers know you care. That they matter. A simple phone call saying "Thank you". An extra discount, or a super sized milk shake. Whatever that thing is for your customers, find it and DO it. If it's genuine you will be amazed at the reaction you get. How do I know? I'm sitting at Which Wich writing this right now… banana milk shake in hand.

This reminded me of my random fountain-drink recipe for the world. Forget "Coke-ness" coming from restaurants quickly making room for Coke Zero and the like. How many restaurants have the nozzle real estate?
My solution is simple – and works for Diet Pepsi too. (Shhh. Don't tell the folks at Coca-Cola.) Fill up 90% with Diet Coke or Diet Pepsi, as your current restaurant's allegiance allows; then simply top off with Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi respectively. Adjust percentages to your liking, and enjoy! :-D

Newsflash: At The Motley Fool, we're not huge fans of Wall Street.
Maybe we're cynics. Perhaps we find pigs in drag distasteful. Or maybe we just know that the vast majority of Wall Street Wizards need a two-headed coin to call a stock right.
Whatever the reason, we Foolishly believe that Joe and Jane Investor can pick stocks just as well as Nigel and Vivian CFA. That's why we created Motley Fool CAPS, harnessing the small-w wisdom of the capital-F Foolish crowd to pick the winners of tomorrow. Problem is, not everyone is pulling their weight.
For the most part, the 81,000 investors currently on CAPS are telling us what we already know: Altria
Thanks for playing. No, really!
Not that we don't appreciate the effort. We do. But today, I'm asking you to broaden your horizons a bit. We still have literally hundreds of stocks out there in CAPS-land that lack the 10 ratings necessary to earn them a CAPS "star" rating.
Where you come in
I'd like to introduce you to just three of these hundreds. If you know the companies in question, please take a moment to tell us whether you like them or hate them, and why. It's really as simple as that.
Southside Bancshares
This 48-year-old bank operates 27 branch locations in 13 Texas cities, offering everything from savings accounts to home mortgages to online banking. Nine Fools have rated it, and a bare majority like it -- but so far, all three of the CAPS All-Star players who've looked at Southside think it's a longtime loser. Care to tell them why they're wrong? Here's your chance.
Virtual Radiologic
Seven-year-old Virtual Radiologic is as far removed from Southside in industry as it is in age. VR works in the field of "remote diagnostic image interpretation," helping staff-stretched hospitals get the results of MRI, ultrasound, and similar medical imaging read in a hurry. Thanks to the magic of the Internet, this one little company is at the beck and call of nearly 500 separate medical facilities nationwide. Pretty cool business, huh? That's probably why this stock gets 100% positive feedback on CAPS. (Feel free to spoil the party if you must.)
You've seen its commercials -- "I'm now a successful technician in the commercial HVAC field!" But did you know that Lincoln Tech is also a public company? (If you didn't, don't feel bad. It only went public in 2005.) Eight investors like Lincoln, but the only All-Star who has voted thinks it's a dud. Now it's your turn to grade this stock a pass/fail.
Help us, Obi-Wan. You're our only hope.
Each of the above stocks currently falls just one vote short of earning its CAPS stars. That gives you the chance to play the hero today. Literally, with just a click of your mouse, you can provide the deciding vote that puts any one of these stocks over the top, and let's everyone else on CAPS know whether it's ready to trounce the market, or trip over its own feet.
Once again, our candidates are:
Fool contributor Rich Smith does not own shares of any company named above. J&J is a recommendation of Income Investor. You can find Rich on CAPS, publicly pontificating under the handle TMFDitty, where he's currently ranked No. 1,268 out of more than 43,000 rated players. The Fool has a disclosure policy.
