"Kiersten White is a Literary Goddess!"
"I know it's just YA, but Kiersten White's writing is so awful it makes me want to puke."
Clearly the first reviewer is the only one who knows what she is talking about.
Actual Conclusion?
There's a reason I don't read reviews, and that is: they don't change anything. When I sit down to write I am neither a goddess nor a vomity mass of awful writing. I'm just me, writing how I write, and that has to be enough. Opinions about my book are exactly that--opinions. Frankly, I'm thrilled my book is out there to GET opinions. I genuinely value them, and I have the most amazing fans and get the most amazing emails. And I'm sorry to that girl I made puke. Hope it didn't come out her nose, because that's painful.
Actually, maybe I hope just a little bit came out her nose.
Anyhow. People love your writing. People hate your writing. Doesn't matter. You always write alone. (Thank heavens, too, because I'd hate for people to be reading over my shoulder and vomiting all over my poor MacBook. It'd also be kind of distracting to have someone actively worshipping me while I tried to tap out book three. I might have to try that one out sometime, though.)
Point: Reviews are for other readers. Authors are free (and encouraged by me) to ignore them. It's kind of vital to our survival/sanity. Readers are free (and very, very encouraged by me) to review and discuss and talk about what they are reading. Love it or hate it, I want you to have an opinion about my book--because that means you read it, and that makes me happy.
|I initially thought this fountain should be dedicated to my son, the eternal puker.
But instead I am dedicating it to everyone who hates my book. Puke away, friends! Puke away!
(Note: I am not feeling bad or looking for validation in the comments. The feedback I get is overwhelmingly positive! I get the most incredibly kind and enthusiastic emails. The ones from teens especially make me giddy with joy. And the puking comment actually made me laugh. Promise.)

Fraley: Holding on to Elvis Andrus, Jurickson Profar has limited Rangers' possibilities this off-season
Rangers writer Gerry Fraley answered reader questions during a live chat Wednesday. Here are some highlights:
Is Jon Daniels losing a bit of his shine, missing out on Greinke and Shields, or did he play it correctly or at least the way the Rangers asked him to?
Gerry Fraley: Don't think Greinke ever intended to pitch in the AL. Pitchers overall prefer the NL, and he really wanted to hit. The money helped, too. With Shields, did not have the same level of prospects that KC gave up, unless he would put Profar in the deal. Being unwilling to deal Andrus or Profar has limited the Ranges' possibilities this off-season.
With what the Rangers needs are going into this season, why were they not the one making the deal with the Marlins instead of the Jays when we have more valuable pieces to trade?
Gerry Fraley: Disagee on having more valuable pieces to trade. To get to the WS in 2010-11, Rangers gave up many pieces from the system. Had to make those deals to win, but the result is a system that is a bit thin at the top now. Everybody has Class-A level prospects. It takes more advanced prospects to make deals. When the Rangers made it clear they would not deal Profar, that limited the possibilities.
I know NOTHING about Travis Hafner, is there someone out there we are not hearing about that might end up here?
Gerry Fraley: Nothing that I have heard. Travis nearing the end. He is 35, has had a lot of injuries and has not had 20 homers since 2007.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
There is not much info available, except some screenshots and blog at http://mage-online.com/index.php?page=1
In any case i'm downloading it for a quick test.
OK, after playing a few hours i realized this game is still in the make, but it looks certainly interesting to check. Crafting system is something i have long been missing from nowadays games.
Someone told me you can actually dig your own dungeons and populate it with crafted items? I will check this tomorrow
I have tried digging in desert and found some treasures :P
If you do get a chance to try it out, could you keep me updated about your experiences with the game. It does look pretty interesting. Too bad they dont have a little gameplay video.
yeah, when i got some friendly buffs, killing mobs got alot easier.
only thing i hate so far is the midnight darkness hours, have to turn gamma on to see something.
No matter how cynical you become, its never enough to keep up - Lily Tomlin
i have no problem with old school, started with asherons call long time ago
crafted my first dagger - tutorial quest reward. my damage is better now... lets see how it goes.
level 3. actually i had to work for the levels; unlike in most modern games, where your first 10 levels are pretty much handed out right away
i just love this area nuke! burn spiders, burn!
I had some extra time today, here is some more info. Bit hard to play, as usually noone is around to team with or get help.
It seems missions are generated for your level range, there is boss to kill and treasure to find. Mission chests have puzzle games to disarm and impove loot. Doors, keys, just like dungeon master type games.
Asked someone in game who seem to have connection with devs to make some youtube vids. Lets see, the game is changing alot, lots of short downtimes, kinda frustrating - but at least no lost items so far. There is only one server apparently i was told.
From a post in news, it looks like the engine is Ogre. I wasn't aware that there was an MMO framework available for it. The dev might have wrote his / her own. Pretty impressive if so, not an easy task. Also noted lots of complex UI work.
Looks like something worth checking out.
Ken Fisher - Semi retired old fart Network Administrator, now working in Network Security. I don't Forum PVP. If you feel I've attacked you, it was probably by accident. When I don't understand, I ask. Such is not intended as criticism.
yes, at first start-up there was an Ogre configuration dialog. The whole download was around 120Mb, i have expected alot bigger download to be honest.
map data is downloaded once you move around, i see a bunch of those files on my HD. if i understood correctly the land is 128 x128 square miles, thats a pretty huge desert world to explore.
here is another picture from a mission boss fight, spanking a skeleton lord here
Looks interesting. Once I'm off my current programming binge, I'm signing up to check it out. I've played several micro-budget small team MMORPGs. They're usually great fun and I like the communities they draw.

Because i can.
I'm Hopeful For Every Game, Until the Fan Boys Attack My Games. Then the Knives Come Out.
Logic every gamers worst enemy.
Today i had fun killing some bosses in team. I got finally my first pet under control too, works pretty well.
There is a lot of activity going on, several patches/day...
The bottom line is I like what i have seen so far, but for now i'm going to jump into testing some other games.
Definitely going to check back later to see how things develop.

Nissan Technology Center North America (NTCNA) celebrates Earth Day 365 days a year
FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. – On Earth Day 2014, it's business as usual at Nissan Technical Center North America (NTCNA). Inside, a thermal ice storage system efficiently reduces greenhouse gas emissions and lowers costs. Translucent skylights energize employees and simultaneously reduce energy consumption, helping trap heat on cold days. In the summer, white roofs provide the opposite effect, cooling the building. Outside, a massive recycling center salvages unused plastics, aluminum, steel, wood, cardboard and other vehicle parts no longer in use, while in the parking lot sits the only public electrical vehicle charging stations in Farmington Hills.
At NTCNA, every day is Earth Day.
"We encourage every one of our 1,200 employees to be environmentally conscious on a day-to-day basis, while always keeping an eye on what we can do to improve," said Kunio Nakaguro, senior vice president, Research and Development, Nissan North America. "For Nissan, Earth Day is a celebration of what we do on a daily basis to ensure we're saving energy and avoiding unnecessary pollution, and we take pride in this accomplishment."
Just yards in front of the facility – which houses production engineering, research and testing, purchasing, quality and administration – the campus pond conserves water and aids irrigation. Not far is the organic garden, a beneficiary of the irrigation system, where employees plant vegetables each spring and donate the finished product to a local charity. Employees are also encouraged to carpool to work, evidenced by a line of "Car Pool Only" parking spots at the front of the company lot.
The brains behind many of the employee initiatives is the NTCNA "Green Team," a group of 22 company employees who meet monthly to brainstorm green ideas. For Earth Day, the team has organized a "Zero Waste Lunch" with a goal of recycling or composting every bit of leftover components.
Other regular environmentally savvy technologies and initiatives at NTCNA include:
- Unusable wood pallets and old tires are chipped and made into mulch.
- Wheels and other metals are turned into various auto parts and other products.
- Usable computer parts are refurbished and reused, while unusable parts are broken down and recycled.
- Recycled cardboard is converted into paper for brown paper bags.

Governance Through Trading and Intervention: A Theory of Multiple Blockholders
Alex Edmans
London Business School - Institute of Finance and Accounting; European Corporate Governance Institute (ECGI); Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR)
Gustavo Manso
University of California, Berkeley - Haas School of Business
June 29, 2011
Review of Financial Studies, Vol. 24, No. 7, pp. 2395-2428, July 2011
AFA 2009 San Francisco Meetings Paper
ECGI - Finance Working Paper No. 225/2008
EFA 2008 Athens Meetings Paper
U of Penn, Inst for Law & Econ Research Paper No. 08-09
Traditional theories argue that governance is strongest under a single large blockholder, as she has large incentives to undertake value-enhancing interventions. However, most firms are held by multiple small blockholders. This paper shows that, while such a structure generates free-rider problems that hinder intervention, the same co-ordination difficulties strengthen a second governance mechanism: disciplining the manager through trading. Since multiple blockholders cannot co-ordinate to limit their orders and maximize combined trading profits, they trade competitively, impounding more information into prices. This strengthens the threat of disciplinary trading, inducing higher managerial effort. The optimal blockholder structure depends on the relative effectiveness of manager and blockholder effort, the complementarities in their outputs, information asymmetry, liquidity, monitoring costs, and the manager's contract.

Will Estroven Maximum Strength affect blood pressure?The ingredients in Estroven Maximum Strength are not known to have an effect on blood pressure. However, it is always advisable to speak with your healthcare professional before taking any dietary supplement. When is the best time to take Estroven Maximum Strength?The best time to take Estroven Maximum Strength is in the morning with your breakfast. Food helps with the absorption of the vitamins and may help prevent stomach upset. How long can I take Estroven Maximum Strength?The ingredients in Estroven™ Maximum Strength are beneficial to women's health. While there have been no long-term side-effects attributed to taking the ingredients in Estroven Maximum Strength, speak with your healthcare professional about the length of time to take any dietary supplement. Does Estroven Maximum Strength contain estrogen?No, Estroven Maximum Strength does not contain synthetic estrogen. Soy Isoflavones interact with some of the same receptors as estrogen to help address your hormonal imbalance, but will not increase hormone levels. Can I take more than the recommended serving of Estroven Maximum Strength?No, Estroven Maximum Strength should be taken as directed. Is it safe for me to take Estroven Maximum Strength with other Estroven products?Estroven products are developed to be used individually to address hot flashes and night sweats as well as other menopausal symptoms. However, since there have been no side effects attributed to taking Estroven Maximum Strength with other Estroven products, we recommend speaking with your healthcare professional to see if taking two Estroven products are appropriate for your individual situation. Will Estroven Maximum Strength cause weight gain?No, Estroven Maximum Strength has not been found to cause weight gain. However during menopause, it is common for women to gain weight. Therefore, if you are concerned about excessive weight gain during menopause, please contact your healthcare professional as there can be many causes. Can I take Estroven Maximum Strength if I have had breast or ovarian cancer?It is essential that you speak with your healthcare professional if you have specific medical concerns or are undergoing cancer treatment before taking any dietary supplement.

What is the difference between the 1 per day and the 2 per day Estroven Maximum Strength?Both products contain the same amount of soy isoflavones and black cohosh for hot flashes per serving and should provide the same benefits. The two-a-day Estroven Maximum Strength is the original product formula and is only sold in certain health food retailers. The convenient one-a-day formulation provides the same serving in just one tablet per day. Will Estroven Maximum Strength help with hair loss or vaginal dryness?There is currently no clinical research indicating that Estroven Maximum Strength will help prevent hair loss or vaginal dryness. How long until I see results when taking Estroven Maximum Strength?Results vary based on each individual's symptoms and needs. Some women notice improvement in seven to ten days but may take up to thirty days for optimal results. Does Estroven Maximum Strength contain soy?Yes, Estroven Maximum Strength contains soy. The soy isoflavones have been clinically proven to reduce hot flashes and night sweats. I recently read an article stating soy supplements are not effective in relieving menopausal symptoms. Is that true?Isoflavones, a group of naturally occurring compounds found in soybeans, are among the most extensively-studied alternatives to estrogen therapy. But all isoflavones are not the same. Only soy isoflavones have more than 25 studies evaluating the effects of soy isoflavones on hot flashes since the first research was conducted in 1995. A statistical analysis of 17 studies, found that isoflavones reduced the frequency and severity of hot flashes by more than 50 percent. These results agree with a previously published statistical analysis that included 19 studies. Estroven Maximum Strength is specifically formulated with a highly concentrated soy extract having the same ratio of beneficial isoflavones found in soybeans and unfermented soy foods. What does menopause mean? Menopause means something different to each woman, but there are certain key elements that we all share. Your reproductive life cycleThink of your life in phases: you start with infancy, move onto childhood, and then reach puberty. At this point, your hormones start raging, your body feels like it doesn't belong to you, and your moods may abruptly swing from silly to dejected. So years later, if you're experiencing menopausal symptoms, it may certainly seem like you've been there before! However, the years surrounding menopause can be a time to define your own experiences and make positive choices about healthcare, relationships, and your own potential. The myths about menopauseThe biggest stumbling block for most women is getting past the old myths about what perimenopause (the years before the event) and menopause mean. Reaching the first signs or symptoms of menopause does not mean that your life as you know it has ended! Some women have easy transitions. Others have a rough time for several years, experiencing bothersome symptoms that come and go. If you feel like your life is in turmoil, you're not alone. In fact, there's a lot you can do to minimize the effects of the symptoms you may be experiencing. In the prime of lifeIn your 40s, 50s, or 60s, you've lived long enough to have the experiences and knowledge to mentor others. But you're also free to let others know exactly who you are as a person, rather than being defined by society's roles for you. Studies of women who dreaded menopause in their 20s and 30s show that their attitude towards it improved the older they got. And after their final menstrual period, most women regarded menopause as primarily positive. You may fear the unknown, but once you've experienced the event, you're an expert! One of the best starting places for reaching your prime is to take proactive steps towards improving your health right now, so you can start on the road to successful aging. There are many paths along this journey through menopause, but you get to choose which one path you take! As with everything in life, it's always best to begin with the basics and add as you need to. For example, you can make the choice to start with Estroven —an herbal menopause remedy for menopause symptom relief — and then see where that leads. And the decisions you make now about your health and wellness may change as time goes on. What is menopause? (And what is perimenopause?) Menopause occurs because of the winding-down of the female cycle, as the hormonal system moves from its reproductive function to "maintenance" for the rest of your life. The perimenopause (the months and sometimes years before menopause occurs) and the postmenopause afterward bring on many changes in your body, mind, and emotions. In this section, you'll learn about: The female hormonal system Before menopause Natural or induced menopause Hormone shift at menopause After menopause The female hormonal systemEven before you reached puberty, your body began to produce hormones, or chemical messengers that travel through the bloodstream. The pituitary gland in the brain produces FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) during the first half of your cycle, and LH (luteinizing hormone) during the second half. Each month, FSH stimulates the follicles in the ovaries, which contain eggs, to begin secreting estrogen into your bloodstream. For the next two weeks, the follicles grow, and one becomes mature enough to ovulate (release an egg). Once the follicle is mature, the pituitary gland cuts back on its production of FSH and produces a surge of LH, which causes the follicle to break open so that the egg can be released. During the next two weeks, the empty follicle produces more estrogen, as well as progesterone, the other hormone essential to reproduction. Progesterone builds up the lining of the uterus into thicker and thicker layers, as a possible home for an implanted egg that might develop into a fetus. If the egg is fertilized, it implants and begins to divide and grow. But most months, the unfertilized egg simply continues its journey through the bloodstream, the levels of estrogen and progesterone drop, and the lining of the uterus sloughs off in a menstrual period. PerimenopauseWhen you reach your early-to-mid forties, this cycle begins to slow down, and the hormonal system isn't as regular as it used to be. Perimenopause ("peri" means "time before") is a time when you can begin to learn all you can about your changing body and mind. You may begin to experience the following symptoms of menopause: Your periods may become irregular, or you may find that it's harder to get pregnant. You may have your first hot flashes, as your hormonal system pumps harder in an attempt to keep stimulating the dwindling supply of eggs in your ovaries. You may have emotional symptoms, like moodiness or depression. You may experience a drop in energy and an increase in tiredness. Natural or induced menopauseMenopause occurs when there are very few eggs left to be fertilized, and the output of estrogen and progesterone is so small that the eggs are not stimulated to ovulate. For most women, this happens in their early 50s. For other women, some external event brings on menopause: Bilateral oophorectomy (removal of both ovaries) puts the body into menopause immediately, because there are no ovaries to produce estrogen and progesterone. A partial oophorectomy has a less severe impact on the body because only one ovary is removed. Hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) speeds up menopause by approximately 2-3 years. Chemotherapy for cancer or pelvic radiation may damage the ovaries so they can no longer produce hormones. However, some younger women who are treated for cancer may begin to menstruate and ovulate again. Hormone shift at menopauseDuring ovulation, the pituitary gland pumps out a high amount of FSH to prepare the release of an egg from the ovaries. This high level of FSH signals the body to increase its production of estrogen to complete ovulation. Once ovulation has occurred, the production of FSH decreases until the start of the next reproductive cycle (see Fig. 1). For menopausal women, however, the body does not produce enough estrogen to complete ovulation, so FSH levels remain high (see Fig. 2). Post MenopauseWhen you have not had a period for 12 consecutive months, you have gone through menopause. After menopause, you no longer need to be concerned about birth control or having monthly periods. This is a milestone for every woman, and with all its inconvenience, it definitely has a plus side. It means you have passed through "the change", and are now ready to meet the challenges of the next half of your life - hopefully with more self-awareness and self-confidence than you had when you were younger! It's common for women to spend decades taking care of everything and everyone but themselves - a husband, a boss, children, pets, a home - but this is a time for you to make a conscious choice to discover what it is you really want out of life. This is your moment to re-establish your principles, your priorities, and your passions. Taking careThere's a lot you can do to take charge of the way you feel during menopause when you have the right information. So keep an open mind, and start with the simplest and most natural tactics to deal with the symptoms you're experiencing. A lot of women don't take great care of themselves during the years when they're busy chasing kids around the house or working hard at a job. So menopause can be a good time to start: Eating a balanced diet of protein, carbohydrates, plenty of fiber, and just a little bit of fat. As we get older, the digestive system is not as efficient, so eating a nutritious, well-balanced diet can keep your body weight stable, and also help you reduce some menopausal symptoms. Getting out and moving at least three times a week for an hour. If you can, do some exercise — even walking — every single day. Exercise helps keep excess weight off, keeps the body working efficiently, and is one of the best ways to keep "the blues" at bay. Learn more about how menopause may affect your weight. Take stress out of your life! Just say no to more obligations than you can handle, and don't cope with problems by using alcohol, caffeine, or cigarettes, which are all bad for your physical and mental health. Menopause supplements provide benefits As the natural estrogen in your body declines, it can be helpful to take supplements that provide some of the same benefits as estrogen. Estroven is a dietary supplement made with isoflavones (from soy products or other herbs) and/or black cohosh and herbs that help reduce the symptoms associated with menopause, helps support your mood, and make you feel like yourself again. What about medication?Since menopause is not a disease but a phase of life, you need to be clear about your own attitude toward menopause in order to decide how you want to handle it. Estroven can be your first choice to handling your menopausal symptoms, since using an herbal remedy for menopause is a logical way to start. But if you're still having problems, there are other options, such as replacement hormones (hormone replacement therapy), antidepressants, and bone-strengthening medications. Psychotherapy, counseling, support groups, etc. can be effective ways to manage menopause. Talk with your healthcare provider to discuss the best action plan for you. Eating Well Everyone knows that eating right is a key factor in maintaining lifelong health, and this is particularly true at menopause. At this time of life, more than ever, you need a balanced diet that focuses on: Fruits and vegetables Whole grains and legumes Lean meats, fish, and poultry Less fat and more low-fat products Here's a tip for reducing your menopausal symptoms: cut back on spicy foods and reduce consumption of alcohol and caffeine, all of which can bring on hot flashes! Getting physicalDid you know that hot flashes and night sweats are less common in physically active women? Physical exercise has also been shown to enhance mood and promote daytime energy and restful nights. In fact, being fit not only decreases the long-term risks of cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and obesity, it also plays a role in how symptoms of hormonal change affect you. In addition to a healthy diet, a successful fitness program should include aerobic activities for your heart, bones, and general fitness; resistance training for your muscle and bone strength; and stretching for your flexibility and to decrease your risk of injury. Start with a plan If you haven't exercised in a long time (or ever), you should see your healthcare provider first to get a clean bill of health, and maybe even some personalized suggestions on the best way to get started. Put exercise on your calendar – once a day, every day.Write yourself a contract, making exercise a daily priority, and post it on your refrigerator. Signing your name may help you to live up to your word. Get someone to exercise with you. A friend or spouse along for the ride means you can talk while you walk. If you miss a few days because of travel or illness, get right back on track again.If you have not been exercising and feel out of shape, start slowly. Begin by taking 5- to 15-minute walks at a comfortable pace three times a week, and gradually increase your distance and pace, keeping in mind the goals mentioned above. Types of dedicated exercise and how they helpAerobic exercise raises your pulse and gets you breathing harder. Brisk walking, swimming, aerobic dancing, bicycling, and treadmill or outdoor running are all effective means of aerobic exercise. Choose the most enjoyable activity that fits your schedule. Strength training involves free weights or exercise machines to strengthen individual muscles. Do a series of exercises that focus on your arms, shoulders, and torso two to three times a week. If you haven't done this kind of exercise before, seek instruction from your healthcare provider, a physical therapist, or a trainer. Flexibility exercises should also be done two or three times each week. They can best be done after aerobic exercise. Flexibility exercises are most effective if the stretch is done slowly and held for 20 to 30 seconds. Your healthcare provider, a physical therapist, or a trainer can suggest appropriate exercises. Staying awareWith our hormones demanding so much of our attention, it may be hard to focus on other aspects of our physical health. But there are other important areas that we need to monitor. In addition to seeing your healthcare provider regularly for pelvic exams and pap smears, having your cholesterol and blood pressure checked, and performing monthly self-breast exams, be sure to have the following tests done: Mammogram Colonoscopy Total body skin examination Fasting plasma glucose Glaucoma test Bone density testing Thyroid hormone test The Number One choice among women and pharmacists. Estroven's history of delivering safe and effective products has a clear result. Over the years, Estroven has become the #1 natural menopause supplement in the United States.** Nearly a million women choose Estroven for relief of their perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms, more than any other brand. Since 2001, Estroven has been the most recommended supplement in the menopause category as determined by Pharmacy Times magazine. The 2011 OTC Pharmacists Recommendations award the highest marks to Estroven, including the OTC Master's logo. Over 398,000 U.S. pharmacists a month recommend Estroven. Estroven believes their commitment to quality is what keeps them at the forefront of the natural menopause supplement category. Estroven SafetyEstroven™ has been on the market since late 1997, and all of its ingredients have been carefully chosen based on the best scientific information available. There are no known significant side effects associated with the recommended serving sizes of Estroven™. Safety of Estroven's FormulaOver the years, with tens of millions of Estroven products sold, there have been very few consumer complaints, and none showing a causal connection between Estroven and any significant negative health event. This confidence in the Estroven™ suite of products, combined with the supporting science on the ingredients confirm our ability and commitment to provide safe products. Every batch of Estroven produced undergoes extensive purity and potency testing. These tests are performed by qualified laboratories, which follow standards set by various scientific agencies, including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP), NSF, AOAC, and other standard-setting authorities. Estroven™ formulas are also tested for shelf-life stability to be sure that the products will be as effective when you buy them as they were when they left the plant. Safety of Estroven's IngredientsThe two primary ingredients in our products — isoflavones and black cohosh — have long and safe histories of use. A well-known and well-reputed vendor, Archer Daniels Midland Company, supplies the soy isoflavones used in our formula. There has been much safety research done on black cohosh. It is important to note that the kind of black cohosh used in Estroven™ products is cimicifuga racemosa, the actual North American herb, rather than the Asian variety, which may not have the same degree of purity or effectiveness. Other ingredients used in Estroven™ include vitamins and minerals, all of which fall below the Safe Upper Limits as defined by the federal government, as well as various other herbs, which have a similar safety profile to isoflavones and black cohosh. Using Estroven with Synthetic HormonesPlease consult your healthcare professional before taking Estroven products with HRT. Using Estroven with Other Prescription MedicinesAlthough there are no known significant side effects associated with the recommended use of Estroven™ with prescription medications, your medical history plays an important role in the effect that supplements have on your body. Please contact your healthcare professional before using Estroven™ with other prescription medicines. Potential Allergens in the Estroven FormulaEstroven™ does not contain preservatives, yeast, wheat, gluten, or lactose. Estroven™ does contain soy, and a small percentage (about 3%) of the population is allergic to soy. Please consult your healthcare professional before taking Estroven™ if you have any known allergies. As with any dietary supplement, please consult your healthcare professional before taking Estroven™. Estroven's Commitment to QualityEstroven are proud of their products and how well they work. Every Estroven production run undergoes a great deal of testing for purity and potency. These tests are performed by qualified laboratories, which follow standards set by various scientific agencies, including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP), NSF, AOAC, and other internationally recognized standard-setting authorities. Vendor SelectionEstroven has developed a strict set of standards for the vendors who supply their ingredients and products. All suppliers must follow current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs). They audit all facilities and operations to be sure they meet current good manufacturing standards. They constantly exchange information with their vendors, so that they can keep improving on their process. Testing ProcessAll batches of Estroven products pass through a thorough validated analysis before they are distributed to stores. Qualified analytical testing laboratories test for potency so that their products can be correctly labeled. Proprietary blends of herbs cannot be tested by traditional methods; therefore product specification standards are used. They have standard operating procedures for: Product acceptance Reviewing and releasing product for distribution Testing Analysis Packaging Cleanliness of quality assurance areas, storage, and distribution Complaints Reserve areas for retaining samples and records (including finished goods and raw materials) Stability TestingIt is essential that the quality of Estroven products does not lessen over time, and that they are as effective from the day they leave the plant to the day you purchase them. For this reason, Estroven makes sure that they meet expiration date requirements, so whether you use the product the day it is made or at the end of its shelf life, it delivers what they promise. Annual stability testing is a standard process for Estroven.

You will receive an email notification when your Official Financial Aid Award Offer is available. Award Offers are only available for viewing online at MyCSULB, under "Award Summary."
Your Award Summary on MyCSULB lists all the sources of financial aid you are eligible to receive for the academic year, as well as a term/semester specific breakdown of your awards. For detailed information on each type of award refer to "Types of Financial Aid."
Awards offered are based on the information you submitted on your financial aid application (either the FAFSA or the California Dream Act Application) – and may consist of grants, scholarships, loans, and/or federal work study – depending on your eligibility. For an overview of how an award offer is determined, including factors that determine types of awards and amounts, refer to our "How Your Awards Are Determined" page.
View My Award Offer: For step-by-step instructions on viewing your Award Summary (including screenshots) review the View My Financial Aid and Scholarships guide.
If you are receiving additional funding from other sources, such as scholarships from non-CSULB sources, we are required by the Federal and California State Student Aid Regulations to consider these resources when determining your awards. If all sources of funding do not show on your award offer, you must notify our office in writing of the amount and source of the award.
CSU Long Beach provides all FAFSA filers who are awarded financial aid with access to a Financial Aid Shopping Sheet.
The Financial Aid Shopping Sheet is a standardized form from the U.S. Department of Education that provides a simplified overview of your college costs and financial aid. The Sheet displays your available financial aid, net costs, and how much you should expect to pay out-of-pocket. The Shopping Sheet can be saved or printed for future reference.
We suggest reviewing your Financial Aid Shopping Sheet immediately after accessing your Award Summary. The shopping sheet is useful for both admitted as well as continuing CSULB students as it presents all information about financial aid and net costs in one document.
Please note, the awards and net costs displayed on the Financial Aid Shopping Sheet are based on the information available at the time you are viewing the sheet. If there are adjustments to your awards, or net costs, the information on your shopping sheet will also be updated.
View My Shopping Sheet:To view your Shopping Sheet, click on the Shopping Sheet button in the top right corner of the Award Summary page (on MyCSULB).
After viewing your Financial Aid Award Summary, you will need to take action on your awards before they can be released and credited towards your CSULB charges (you can either accept or decline your awards).
If you are not sure if you want to accept a particular award, such as a loan, you may delay making a decision on that award until later. Please note, however, that some awards have limited funding available. Delaying your acceptance of awards (other than Direct Loans) may subject the award to cancellation in the event funding is depleted.
BEFORE Accepting a loan, review the Responsible Borrowing video from Federal Student Aid.
PLEASE NOTE: Amounts shown on your award offer are based on FULL-TIME enrollment . (12 units per semester for undergraduate and credential students). If you are not enrolled full-time at the time your funds are released, your award amounts may be adjusted. Review the information on How Enrollment Impacts Financial Aid for more details.
When financial aid awards are released, they are applied toward any outstanding CSULB charges (Tuition and Fees, Housing, and any Installment Plans). Any remaining amount is then issued to the student through the "Financial Aid Disbursement" (refund) process.
CSU Long Beach provides all financial aid refunds through a secure, automated deposit directly to your checking or savings account. This process is called eRefund, and all financial aid recipients are required to enroll.
If you are not currently signed up for eRefund, please visit MyCSULB to complete the process which usually takes less than 3 minutes. You will need to have your account Routing Transit number and Account number, both of which can be located on your check or savings deposit slip. Refer to the eRefund Guide for details on how to sign up.
PLEASE BE AWARE: Failure to sign up for eRefund in a timely manner will significantly delay your receipt of funds. Until sign up is completed, you will receive a paper refund check mailed to your address on file in MyCSULB. It normally takes at least 10 to 15 business days to receive a physical check. eRefund is a much timelier and secure method as funds are typically available in your bank account within 48 hours.

An earlier version of this article incorrectly identified the campaign spokesman for Thom Tillis.
WASHINGTON — With his visit to Raleigh on Wednesday to talk about the economy, President Obama is expected to repeat his call on Republicans to extend emergency unemployment insurance benefits that expired for 1.3 million long-term unemployed Americans more than two weeks ago in a state where the issue has significant resonance.
Benefits were cut off for thousands of the long-term jobless in Tar Heel State in July after the GOP-controlled legislature voted early last year to reduce state-provided benefits so they could speed up repayment of roughly $2.5 billion in debt owed to the federal government.
By cutting state benefits — which reduced maximum weekly benefits by $185 and limited the maximum number of weeks workers could draw benefits to 20 weeks — North Carolina fell below minimum federal standards for unemployment insurance. As a result, the long-term unemployed in the state became ineligible to receive federally funded extended benefits available to unemployed workers in other states who have been jobless for more than 26 weeks.
The state legislature's decision to reduce benefits now has become a central issue in what is likely to be one of the mostly hotly contested U.S. Senate races in the country in 2014, one in which the GOP is looking to unseat incumbent Democrat Sen. Kay Hagan.
In Washington, Congress remains at loggerheads over terms of renewing jobless benefits for the long-term unemployed after two Senate bills failed to extend benefits failed to clear procedural votes on Tuesday.
Hagan secured a provisionto restore unemployment benefits for three months in the stalled Senate legislation that would make residents in her state eligible for long-term benefits by permitting North Carolina to negotiate an agreement with the Department of Labor.
And the first-term senator, who saw her polling numbers dip in the aftermath of the Obama administration's bungled Affordable Care Act rollout, has gone on the offensive on the unemployment insurance issue. She is blaming North Carolina House Speaker Thom Tillis and his fellow Republicans for supporting the reduction that has led to approximately 170,000 unemployed workers in the state missing out on benefits. Tillis also happens to the front-runner in the GOP primary to take on Hagan in November.
"This irresponsible and cold-hearted action by the General Assembly has been devastating to the thousands of individuals and families who are really struggling to make ends meet while looking for jobs," Hagan told reporters, adding that the reduction in unemployment benefits has led to $780 million being taken out of the state's economy.
Tillis and state Sen. Phil Berger, the top Republican in the North Carolina legislature, have countered that it's Hagan who dropped the ball by failing to win an exemption from federal requirements as four other states — Arkansas, Indiana, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island -- had done during unemployment benefit extension negotiations in February 2012.
Hagan, however, says that when Tillis and Berger called on her to push for a waiver in December 2012, North Carolina hadn't yet passed its law, making it impossible for Congress to consider what at the time was "hypothetical" state legislation.
A spokesman for Gov. Pat McCrory, a Republican who won office in 2012, declined to comment on where the governor stands on the North Carolina provision in the Senate bill.
"If and when the bill passes, we'll be happy to provide you with comments," said McCrory spokesman Ryan Tronovitch.
But Tillis and fellow North Carolina Republicans have suggested the decision to reduce benefits was ultimately the right thing to do for the state.
North Carolina, which in the midst of the recession saw unemployment skyrocket and was forced to borrow heavily from the federal government to provide jobless benefits, has begun to whittle away at its debt. As a result of the legislation, the state is on track to pay off that debt by 2016, rather than the initial projection of 2019.
"Kay Hagan wants people who are unemployed to get a small, temporary check from the government. Thom Tillis wants them to be able to get a good paycheck and a job," said Jordan Shaw, Tillis' campaign spokesman. "Sen. Hagan and President Obama have gummed up every engine of our economy with job-killing policies like Obamacare and out-of-control debt."
North Carolina has seen its unemployment rate drop from 8.9% last July to 7.4% in December, according to the Labor Department. Government data shows that more than 20,000 have been added to payrolls in the state since the reduction in benefits. But Hagan and others note that some of the drop in the state's unemployment is likely due to frustrated job seekers permanently dropping out of the job market.
John Davis, a North Carolina political analyst and the publisher of the John Davis Political Report, said if the U.S. economy continues to make strides, the current battle on unemployment will likely have minimum effect on the North Carolina senate race come November.
"With something like unemployment in an improving — perhaps a dramatically improving -- employment situation in the United States and certainly in North Carolina, I'm not sure this could be an arrow in the quiver," Davis said.

BlackBerry supports Laurier program that connects Haitian and Canadian school principals
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Feb 21/14
Wilfrid Laurier University and BlackBerry are working together to support education advancement in Haiti, one of the worlds poorest countries, through Lauriers Digital Mentoring Project.
Steve Sider, an assistant professor in Lauriers Faculty of Education and former school principal, started the project in 2011 to connect Haitian and Canadian school principals in a professional learning community. The initial pilot project involved 10 Haitian and Canadian principals. Based on the successful development of the project, BlackBerry recently donated 150 smartphones and 20 tablet devices to the project, bringing its donation to nearly 200 devices to date. As well, Rob McBride, a BlackBerry director and Laurier alumnus, has traveled with Sider to Haiti to provide training support on how BlackBerry devices can be used to facilitate communication and resource sharing.
Sider has been providing professional development to education leaders in different regions of Haiti since 2003. Initially, there was limited follow-up with principals between training sessions, but then, realizing he could harness wireless connectivity in Haiti, he started the Digital Mentoring Project. Using smartphones, Haitian principals can access support for educational resources, curriculum development and communication strategies. The smartphones also provide a chance for school principals within Haiti to support and connect with one another.
No one knows what the future of any country is, but it seems to me that the foundation of any country has got to be education, said Sider. A population that can read and write, and consider, debate and analyze, is going to be a stronger nation; this starts with equipping school principals so they can be effective leaders in their schools and communities.
Sider visits Haiti two to three times a year. He is working with a research team of Haitian and Canadian educators to study the behaviours of the students, teachers and school administrators who use the devices to better understand their needs for additional, similar projects. The team is currently exploring the development of online learning systems that will allow teachers and principals from across Haiti to access educational resources.
The results of the research will be released in numerous journal and book publications in 2014, and both the Haiti Digital Mentoring Program and the research study will be presented at the Comparative and International Education Society conference the biggest international conference of its kind in March.
Sider, along with a team that includes staff from BlackBerry, the Ontario Ministry of Education, local school boards and education students from Lauriers Faculty of Education, will be in Haiti in May, 2014 as part of the development of the Haiti Digital Mentoring Project.

Geordan Murphy and Toby Flood return to the Tigers team for Saturday's Aviva Premiership trip to face London Irish at Madejski Stadium.
Geordan Murphy and Toby Flood return to the Tigers team for Saturday's Aviva Premiership trip to face London Irish at Madejski Stadium.
Club captain Murphy will make his 200th Premiership appearance as he is included in the starting line-up for the first time since the win over Northampton Saints in early November.
He becomes the 19th player to reach that top-flight landmark, with club colleague George Chuter holding the all-time record with 258 appearances.
Fly-half Flood has recovered from a toe injury and makes his first club appearance since the end of October.
Graham Kitchener comes into the second row for Tigers, and Jordan Crane takes the number eight shirt with Thomas Waldrom ruled out by a calf injury picked up in last Saturday's Heineken Cup win over Treviso in Italy.
Meanwhile, Marland Yarde has recovered from injury and will start for London Irish.
Ian Humphreys will start at fly-half and Jebb Sinclair joins Declan Danaher and Chris Hala'ufia in the back row.
"It will be great to be playing back at the Madejski in front of our home crowd. Leicester has been the benchmark team in the Aviva Premiership for a long time now and they'll give us a thorough examination," said London Irish director of rugby Brian Smith.
"In saying that we don't fear any team in this league and the boys are itching to play the Tigers."
Form: London Irish have won just one of their last eight matches in all competitions: 34-28 at home to Sale in the Anglo-Welsh Cup on November 11. The Exiles have not been victorious at Madejski Stadium in the Aviva Premiership since beating Northampton there, 39-17, on 6 October. Leicester Tigers' solitary defeat in their last six fixtures was 12-14 to London Wasps at Adams Park in the Premiership on 25 November. The Tigers have won only one of their last four away games in the Premiership: 20-8 at Sale on 5 October. London Irish have won only one of their last ten encounters with the Tigers in all tournaments: 18-12 at Reading in the Premiership on 24 October 2009. Leicester have won on three of their last four visits to Madejski Stadium.
The teams:
London Irish: 15 Tom Homer, 14 Topsy Ojo, 13 Jonathan Joseph, 12 Sailosi Tagicakibau, 11 Marland Yarde, 10 Ian Humphreys, 9 Darren Allinson,8 Chris Hala'ufia,7 Jebb Sinclair,6 Declan Danaher (c), 5 Matt Garvey, 4 Bryn Evans, 3 Halani Aulika, 2 David Paice, 1 Max Lahiff.
Replacements: 16 Scott Lawson, 17.Jerry Yanuyanutawa, 18 Leo Halavatau, 19 Kieran Low, 20 Jamie Gibson, 21 Guy Armitage, 22 Shane Geraghty, 23 Jack Moates.
Leicester: 15 Geordan Murphy, 14 Niall Morris, 13 Manusamoa Tuilagi, 12 Anthony Allen, 11 Adam Thompstone, 10 Toby Flood, 9 Ben Youngs, 8 Jordan Crane, 7 Julian Salvi, 6 Brett Deacon, 5 Graham Kitchener, 4 Louis Deacon (c), 3 Dan Cole, 2 Tom Youngs, 1 Marcos Ayerza.
Replacements: 16 Rob Hawkins, 17 Logovi'i Mulipola, 18 Fraser Balmain, 19 Ed Slater, 20 Geoff Parling, 21 Sam Harrison, 22 George Ford, 23 Matt Smith.
Date: Saturday, December 22
Venue: Madejski Stadium
Kick-off: 15:00 GMT
Referee: Luke Pearce
Assistant referees: Ashley Rowden, Peter Huckle

cute, but not for me
"these pinched a bit at the front, but I sometimes have problems wearing pointy toed shoes so that may have been me. However, there was a decent sized gap at the back even though the rest of the shoe felt like the right size. I wasn't a fan of the color either, it was too light of a nude color for me. So regretfully, back they went."
