Attention all webmasters, affiliates, and business owners!
If you can copy and paste, then you can easily generate $899, $2,697, even $3,999 or more each month by selling a proven product!
Dear potential business partner,
You have arrived at a generous Affiliate Program that helps people like you grow monthly commission income. And with a little patience — it can easily become a passive income stream, month after month!
In a moment I'll tell you how you can earn more income from the comfort of your home just by promoting my unique Zodiac product.
Why promote my Capricorn Man Secrets product?
- Earn up to $88.1 per sale ($29 on your initial sale and $59 on our one-time upsell offer),
- Make 70% commissions on initial sales,
- This is a HOT and new niche (Women LOVE Astrology!),
- Constant testing and optimization to make you more money,
- A proven product with low refunds and great customer support!
- Get paid on time via Clickbank,
- Millions and millions of women want this information,
- Professional affiliate support and training with your own account manager,
- A product that actually helps people by SAVING and CREATING new relationships!
My name is Anna Kovach, and I'm the author and owner of 'Capricorn Man Secrets.' This is a unique product that has already helped thousands of women, and it sells like hot cakes. Because it's a top-notch product that answers a customer's specific relationship dilemmas.
If you have ANY female related audience... whether it's a blog, a big website, a list... and it doesn't even have to be related to ASTROLOGY — because virtually all heterosexual women are interested in dating or are already in a relationship with a man. You'll see almost every female Magazine out there, from Cosmo to your local newspaper — they all have a section about Horoscopes. Why? Because their readers WANT it, even if they're skeptical of this advice, their curiosity will still make them take a look.
This is a HUGE market. And it SELLS worldwide, not just in the United States. We have customers from Japan, Hong Kong and Malaysia, to India, Europe, and all the way down to Argentina. Even in the United Arab Emirates and South Africa!
And Astrology has been around for THOUSANDS of years, it's bound to stay a topic of interest as long as there are MEN and WOMEN on Earth.
So... if you're a smart marketer and want to take a piece of the money then here is your chance to promote a proven product and earn commissions passively just by copy-pasting your unique URL. BEFORE the market gets saturated. The sooner you get in, the better!
And there are very few restrictions here — SEO, Facebook, PPC, email marketing, even Instagram... these are all quality traffic channels you can use to promote Capricorn Man Secrets, to at least 8% of women around the world. That's MILLIONS of potential customers ready to click on your link and BUY a product that improves their life!
Just send us the Traffic Thunder, and I'll convert them into buyers and make you money.
Once the visitors buy, you automatically receive a generous 70% cut – yeah, full $29 commission instantly in your affiliate account. And if they buy more than one product (it's a1-click upsell) which is 'Personal Compatibility Readings,' then you even receive a cut from that upsell, too. For one sale you can easily make up to $88.1 in total. And there's no limit to the amount of sales you can refer!
And these are just some of the reasons you should promote Capricorn Man Secrets! You are not only making passive money, but you're actually helping people improve their love life, become more confident and live a happier life altogether. Don't believe me, just take a look at some of my testimonials that I'll be showing soon on my sales page.
How much money can you actually make?
There are no limits! You can make as much money as you want. Conversion are great and you can purchase quality traffic or send free SEO traffic our way. The more you send the more money you make.
Let's do some basic calculations, what would you make if you do just 1 sale a day?
|$ / Day
|$ / Month
|$ / Year
|1 Sales
|2 Sales
|3 Sales
|$ 2,697
|$ 32,364
|4 Sales
|$ 3,596
|5 Sales
Moreover, guess what these estimates are just for the basic course of $29, imagine how much could you make with the upsell where you get an extra $59.1.
Total $88.1 commission for you. So even if just 20% of buyers purchase our upsell -- your passive income shoots up massively. And that's just by making a few sales a day — with quality traffic, you can EASILY make 10 sales per day or more!
OK, how will you receive your commissions?
Once you get this money in your Clickbank affiliate account -- it's your money! Whether you want to spend this money to watch a movie, eat out or buy a FERRARI – it's your take.
You simply instruct Clickbank to send your commissions to your bank account, or if you prefer a crunchy check, then it's sent to you swiftly within two weeks.
So what do you need to do to earn commissions?
You have to recommend it honestly and sincerely.
If you have bought this product, then you know how good it is! The first step you must take before promoting it is to present it sincerely. If you have not bought it then I recommend you to get it, using your own affiliate link (that's your first commission!), and once you realize how empowering it is and then recommend it to your visitors, and friends. If you've got a website, a forum, Facebook friends' list or Twitter followers, then you can give your honest opinion along with pros and cons and the chances are you'll quickly make your second, third, fourth... commissions in no time!
Actually, that's the EASIEST way you can make money — write a full product review about Capricorn Man Secrets — people are already searching for independent reviews of my book, and they'll likely land on your page on Google and click on your affiliate link. This is the easiest money you can make. Otherwise, give people relationship advice pertaining Capricorn men and send them to this page, where you'll include your affiliate link. This is the simplest way for you to generate FREE website visitors that convert to customers.
EVEN IF you don't have a big Astrology mailing list or a high-traffic Astrology or Relationship website — you can now EASILY build one. There are SO many free tools out there, you can set up a WordPress blog in a day or build a fan page in less than 20 minutes!
How are your sales tracked?
A unique URL and a 60-days cookie track your sales.
Here's a little science behind the tracking: copy and paste our code wherever you can (please ensure you are not spamming) on your website, forum, Facebook feeds, Facebook page, subscribers list or tweet it to your followers.
Whenever people click your link, a small cookie is stored on their PC or mobile device which tells us that they are your visitors. Whenever they make a purchase, you will receive full commission. Most people make a purchase decision within 2-3 days, but just in case they forget and come back again say after a week, you still get the credit. But we still track them for 60-days!
And that's the beauty of it, whenever they decide to make a purchase within 60 days, you still get your commission. Even tough we'll do all the remarketing for you at our expense!
How to get started to earn commissions?
To grab your unique URL, you simply create a FREE account with Clickbank. Clickbank is one of the top platforms to collect payments and find products to promote. And it's perfect for tracking, collecting payments, and affiliate marketing. You can create your FREE account with Clickbank within 30 seconds. It's EASY.
Is this FREE, or there's some catch?
Absolutely no catch.
Clickbank is a well-respect digital platform. They are never wrong in tracking, and they have never been late in payment since they were established in 1998. They currently have 1.5 million affiliates on their payroll.
Get your FREE Clickbank account and earn commissions today.
This is where your commissions will be automatically credited. So click here now and open your free account in 30 seconds.
Once you have an account, go to the Marketplace section and type "Capricorn man", you'll find Capricorn Man Secrets and simply click on the "PROMOTE" button to generate your unique affiliate code. This is the link you can simply copy and paste. You can also shorten it with a link shortener like TinyUrl.com or Bit.ly to make it look nicer and additionally track clicks. This is especially good if you promote on Facebook and want to know which post got you more clicks. You can even use a TID (Transaction ID) so you can follow up on which link got you more sales.
What are the best promotion strategies?
Now that you have your own unique URL, you would like to know how to promote the product to get maximum number of sales.
You know, if you'll just blast the link to your followers then chances are you'll leave too much money on the table. But if you promote it by giving your honest recommendation then it's likely that you'll make a clean sweep.
A mistake most affiliates make is they try to sell what they are not very aware of. And if you don't want to leave any money on the table then I recommend you to familiarize yourself with the product or grab your 'Affiliate Kit' that I've prepared especially for you.
You'll find step-by-step information in your 'Capricorn Affiliate Kit.' To receive your kit just email me at email@example.com and ask for my Capricorn Man Secrets Affiliate Kit. Inside you'll discover exactly how you can best promote it and make more money in no time.

Why your Affiliate Kit is critical to your success?
First, it'll ensure that you're set with your unique code, and ready to earn your commissions, then I regularly announce bonus campaigns, latest affiliate offers that you don't want to miss if you want to make big commissions... which I know you want. All partners who are earning big have received it and I recommend so should you.
Better yet, send an email right away while you on this page: email@example.com — I want to get to know you and see how I can help you make more passive, automatic money!

The good thing is — few people know about this offer and it's great to keep it for yourself — get in on the ground level and promote any of my other Zodiac products!
And if you send visitors recommending this product in an honest and sincere way, then they'll buy, and your conversion rate will be high. You'll get more in your 'Affiliate Kit,' email me if you've not done it yet: email@example.com
Honestly, recommend the product, and I'll take care of the sales, customers, their questions… guiding them, listening to them, managing the product and managing the payments.

Ryan Seacrest has admitted he is smitten with E L James' "Fifty Shades of Grey."
"I'm obsessed. I'm past the bathtub scene, so I'm making progress," he told Access Hollywood correspondent Jill Martin ahead of the E! upfronts in New York City on Monday, referring to his spot in the novel. "It's fascinating to see something like that capture the zeitgeist and also it's really interesting to read.
"And I'm using it as a manual," he continued. "I think it can be a study book for a lot of people."
Ryan, who is dating former "Dancing with the Stars" pro Julianne Hough, now an actress, said the book comes in handy.
"Parts of it can be a workbook," he told a blushing Jill.
Ryan may be in good spirits now, but last week the "American Idol" host nearly didn't make it to the big stage after getting ill.
"I had a bug that got everything out of me — trust me — in the 24 hoursââ¬Â¦ So I'm good," Ryan said of how he is doing now. "An afternoon later, I was OK."
While Ryan made it to the "Idol" stage, he revealed that the show's executive producer, Nigel Lythgoe, was ready to step in and assume his duties for the night.
"Nigel got a haircut, literally, as soon as he heard that I was sick," Ryan said. "I don't know if that's a supportive friend. I have some friends in Hollywood, but that doesn't say 'supportive' to me, that you'd go get your haircut, put on a suit — he put his silk handkerchief in.
"I think he poisoned my chicken," Ryan added, with a laugh.

UPDATE: Missing Boone County Man Found In Cincinnati
Update posted at 8:23 a.m.:
The critical missing alert for Sedric Scott has been cancelled. He was found safe in Cincinnati at around 8:00 a.m.
Original story posted at 7:34 a.m.:
(Verona, Ky.) – A critical missing alert has been issued concerning a Boone County resident who disappeared overnight.

Early Detection of Lung Cancer
Cough won't go away? See your doctor.
In 2010, the 'Cough cough cough' campaign was an awareness campaign about the early detection of lung cancer and took place in Rotorua between September and December. This campaign aimed to to see more people surviving lung cancer into the future.
Sadly, Rotorua was a good place for the Midland Cancer Network to pilot this project with the Lakes District Health Board region having significantly higher lung cancer rates than other areas of
As it is, lung cancer has low survival rates; just 10 per cent of people diagnosed with lung cancer survive beyond five years of diagnosis. For Maori, the picture is worse at just five per cent survival beyond five years.
"It was a surprise to me when I first started working in Rotorua how many people with lung cancer I was seeing," she said.
"Over time, I also realised that many of these patients were presenting with advanced disease. I see new patients with lung cancer pretty much most weeks."
The project has been modelled on the success of a similar campaign with
"It is a push-pull model which will push people – particularly those with a smoking history – that have had a cough for more than three weeks, to see their doctor," said Midland Cancer Network project manager Diana Peers.
"At the same time we are working with health professionals to pull their at-risk patients in to see them, and getting health professionals to promote the early detection of lung cancer and encourage their patients to seek help earlier and enjoy their lives."
Early review of Lakes DHB's lung cancer presentations shows that many people have advanced lung cancer on diagnosis, which limits their treatment options.
Of 38 Lakes DHB patient records reviewed from 2009, 82 per cent of patients presented with stage three and four lung cancer, while curative treatment can only be given in the early stages of the disease.
Dr Aitken knows from experience that testing for lung cancer is a difficult process.
"Lung cancer investigations, diagnosis and treatment are incredibly difficult for patients and whanau. Often because of previous experience with family members, they feel very hopeless from the start.
"There is a real impact on the community of avoidable loss of those people from the input they have to their families and community either whilst they're being treated or if they do not recover."
However, for one Rotorua lung cancer survivor, the journey has been very different.
Alex McKenzie, of Rotorua, agreed to support the campaign by telling his story, which speaks volumes about the importance of listening to your body and being vigilant with your health.
Mr McKenzie was diagnosed in the early stages of the disease and is alive to tell the tale.
Dr Aitken says she doesn't know why people present at such late stages of lung cancer.
"Maybe their lives are busy, so they put off getting checked. Maybe they're worried it's bad news and think if they ignore it, it will go away – it won't.
"Maybe they are used to putting up with less than good health and just don't expect much. Maybe they have had bad experiences with the health system.
"I also think sometimes people feel bad about themselves for smoking and they shouldn't."
Western Heights Medical Centre GP Alistair McLean agrees with Dr Aitken but can't stress enough how vital early detection is to survive lung cancer.
"If people are at risk of cancer they should see their family doctor or practice nurse for an assessment. If they're worried, they can bring someone along to the appointment," he said.
"People often present late in the illness because they think they just have a "smoker's cough" – or because they are scared. Don't be scared. Just get checked."
If you or someone you love has been coughing for more than 3 weeks, you need to see your doctor.
Alex did. This Rotorua local had cold symptoms that he knew just weren't quite right, so he took himself off to his family doctor and it saved his life.

"It's just a great place for kids to explore," said Forest Service naturalist Karen Maher, who will lead the program. "Ponds, steams, marshes, woodlands, wildlife, hiking trails; there is so much to do in that area, and with kids needing more options for outdoor summer activities, it just seemed like perfect fit."
Maher, who developed the idea while working at the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center, designed the program around a series of weekly themes: Wilderness and Survival, Wild Wonderful Water, Plants and their Products, Birds and Mammals, and Geology and Glaciers. Each theme incorporates different activities. For instance, Wilderness and Survival weeks will include map and compass reading and shelter building. Birds and Mammals weeks will feature tracking and making casts of tracks, birdwatching basics and habitat studies.
Sessions are fro 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Fridays are a half-day, finishing with a picnic lunch for parents and kids. Groups will meet at the new Forest Service facilities on Back Loop Road near the NOAA weather station. No camp on July 4, so that week will extend into Saturday, July 8. Transportation from Downtown is available.
Discovery Southeast sees the Crystal Lake camps complementing the latter's popular and well-established Outdoor Explorers program for children 9 - 12.
According to Discovery Southeast Executive Director Dana Owen, the organization was looking for a way to expand their summer offerings when the Forest Service approached them.
"The Crystal Lake camps are perfect for families needing more options, or for those older kids who have been with us for two or three years and are looking for something a little different or more structured," Owen said.
This summer's Outdoor Explorers program offers six weeks of camps for children 7 - 9 and two weeks for the older group. Openings were available for both Crystal Lake and Outdoor Explorers at press time.
Parents may register their children for either program through the Discovery Southeast Web site at www.discoverysoutheast.org or by calling 463-1500. Cost is $185 per week for non-members and $155 for Discovery Southeast members. A limited number of scholarships are available.

Forest stars in team of the week
Young Forest stars, Sammy Clingan and Kris Commons were named in the league 1 team of the week today.
Clingan marshalled the midfield for Forest, showing good vision and awareness as well as a good work rate.
Commons scored two near identical free kicks, both tremendous strikes, to win the game for the reds.
In truth, many of the other members of the Reds team could have been included after a very good first half performance with the likes of Morgan, Breckin, Cullip, Perch and Agogo also shining.

Local officials and managing partners for the iconic holiday lights in Bloomington's courthouse square are considering switching to more energy-efficient LED bulbs in as little as two years. But switching to LED may not yield savings right away.
Currently there are more than 200,000 light bulbs hanging in the canopy, trees and surrounding buildings downtown and these lights stay on for more than 500 hours during the holidays.
Jim Murphy is the president of CFC Properties, which maintains the lights on the trees and surrounding buildings of the square. He says switching to LED lighting would lower energy use and electricity costs. But Murphy says LED lights come with higher replacement costs. While the canopy lights are only replaced as needed, workers hang new lights on the trees every three years.
"The LED lights currently as of today are about twice as expensive as the incandescent lights so although we would save money in energy costs, we would actually spend more money in purchasing those lights every three years," Murphy says.
The lights currently lining the trees and buildings are due to be replaced in two years. Murphy says a switch to LED lights would bring significant energy savings and he hopes the prices of LED lights decrease in the next two years making a switch to LED lights a no-brainer.

Chapter 29 The Jesus Code: 52 Scripture Questions Every Believer Should Answer by O.S. Hawkins.
This week's question: "Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?" (Matthew 6.27).
Last week's question came from chapter 5 of the Sermon on the Mount. This week's question is from the next chapter. Remember, in this His first public sermon, Jesus was basically saying, this is how life is in My kingdom … or should be.
This week's question is at the heart of one of the two most common passages about worry. The other is Philippians 4.6-8. Here in Matthew 6, the Master Teacher used contrast and comparison to help us see the foolishness of worrying. He began with sparrows.
Sparrows are dear to my heart. These are "mine," well, the ones God allows to hang around my yard. I put seed out for them most mornings and watch them flock to the feeder while I read my Bible. I get a fair amount of doves, some finches, and a few woodpeckers with their brightly colored crests (although they only want to drink from the hummingbird feeders), but more than anything else, there are sparrows. They were just as plentiful in the first century.
Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? (Matt. 6.26).
Sometimes I'm running late in the morning or I'm out of town and I don't feed "my" sparrows, but I don't worry, my Father has it under control.
Back to Jesus' question in verse 27, "Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?"
We, generally, think of a cubit in terms of size, but Hawkins explains that it can also mean "duration of life."
He goes on:
Worrying will not increase your physical size, elevate your standing in the community, improve your reputation, or— as Jesus taught here— add any length to your life. Our times are in God's hands. The psalmist reminded us that our days on earth were already numbered before we lived a single one of them or drew a single breath (Psalm 139: 16). So what will worry do for you? Absolutely nothing. Worrying is futile.
Next in the Sermon, Jesus turns our attention to lilies. My lilies are not in bloom, but this is my favorite corner in the yard.
Jesus asks us to consider the lilies. The author:
Specifically he calls us to "consider . . . how they grow" (v. 28). Growth remains something of a mystery: How does a tiny seed ultimately become a beautiful flower? How does a speck of protoplasm, undetected by the human eye, become a human being with all the intricacies of a circulatory system, respiratory system, nervous system, digestive system, and the like? In winter a flower bulb lies hidden in the earth, covered over by a frozen mound of ice and snow, as if it were dead. Yet, when spring arrives, that bulb bursts into life, sprouting stalk, leaves, and blossoms. Jesus wanted us to remember that the same God of glory who watches over those lilies watches over you and me. How do those lilies grow? God does it!
As soon as a flower is cut, it begins to die, but we are immortal, made in the image of God. If he takes care of the lilies "which today [are], and tomorrow [are] thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?" (v. 30).
That leads to the next reason not to worry.
"O you of little faith!" This is probably the most important one. Worry shows a lack of trust in God, His care, and His sovereign purposes in our lives. Hawkins reminds us:
The key to being free of worry is making God our top priority. Jesus put it this way: "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things [provision for our needs] shall be added to you" (Matthew 6: 33).
What joy to know, God clothes the lilies, He cares for the sparrows … and my God cares for me!

A recent study regarding the use of antidepressants has been gaining a lot of media attention. The actual study, The risks of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor use in infertile women: a review of the impact on fertility, pregnancy, neonatal health and beyond (Domar, Moragianni, Ryley & Urato, 2012) has been described by media with a fair amount of fear-based headlines. Safety regarding the use of a specific type of antidepressant medication, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRIs), is an important topic of research, as care providers from many fields address the prevalence and negative effects of depression and other mood disorders in pregnancy.
Understandably, pregnant women and their families may be greatly alarmed by these dramatic press releases, and in some cases may consider suddenly discontinuing their medication, without realizing the significant risks that accompany suddenly stopping medication. What do the experts say?
I asked the study's lead researcher, Alice Domar, MD what advice she would offer a pregnant woman who is currently on one of the SSRI medications listed in the study to do, and she kindly offered this response:
"I would never recommend the sudden discontinuation of an SSRI during pregnancy. There are significant side effects associated with the abrupt cessation of antidepressants and we don't know the impact on the developing fetus. The three main points we were trying to make with the paper were: 1) there are risks associated with taking SSRIs during pregnancy, 2) there are no clear benefits, and 3) each patient needs to have a discussion with her physician about her individual risk/benefit ratio. There is a huge difference between a woman who is suicidal, who in all likelihood should remain on medication, versus women with mild or moderate symptoms who would benefit from a different approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, or physical exercise, both of which are very effective in the treatment of depressive symptoms." --Alice Domar, MD (personal email communication, 11/2/12)
Another of the study's researchers, Dr. Adam Urato, offered this follow-up:
"Your question is a good one (What would you advise a pregnant woman who is currently on one of the SSRI medications listed in the study to do?) and it is one I deal with several times each week as an Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialist. I agree with Dr. Domar's comments. Sudden discontinuation of the SSRIs is not recommended. They should be tapered for those who plan to discontinue them. The patient and their pregnancy health care provider (and their mental health provider) need to be aware of the scientific evidence regarding these drugs. That evidence shows significant risk of pregnancy complications (like miscarriage and preterm birth) and no evidence of benefit for moms and babies. In non-pregnant populations, alternatives like cognitive behavioral therapy and exercise appear to be as effective as the SSRI antidepressants and without the side effects and pregnancy risks." (Personal email communication, 11/2/12)
Reaching out to experts in the field provided roundtable perspective. Christina Chambers, MPH, PhD, California Teratogen Information Specialist (CTIS) and director of the Pregnancy Health Information Line, had these thoughts:
"I agree with the authors' comments. Caution is warranted, treatment makes sense when benefits are clear, and women with less severe illness might consider alternative approaches if they work, abrupt discontinuation without doctor's advice is not a good idea, and care needs to be taken to address the issue of complications for mother and baby of untreated or poorly treated maternal depression. If a woman has questions, she should consult her doctor. She can also call the Organization of Teratology Information Specialists (OTIS) at 866-626-6847 to speak to an expert in this field." (Personal email communication, 11/2/12)
Lucy Puryear, MD, immediate past president of Postpartum Support International (PSI) and Medical Director of The Women's Place: Center for Reproductive Psychiatry offered:
"For women with mild to moderate depression psychotherapy and alternative treatments are absolutely the first choice. But for women with moderate to severe depression that is impairing functioning, antidepressants must be an option. Antidepressants do work in this population and save lives. Our challenge is to continue to look for the safest and most effective treatments for women during this vulnerable period." (Personal email communication, 11/2/12)
PSI's Executive Director Wendy N. Davis, PhD, agreed,
"We are most concerned that women will be unduly frightened by articles that discuss risks of antidepressants but do not discuss positive experiences or research studies that show little statistical relationship between SSRI use and pregnancy outcome. We want to connect women with reliable resources and experts in perinatal psychiatry so they can make thoughtful decisions about treatment options for depression and anxiety during pregnancy."
A word about the science...
One of the pre-eminent researchers in the field, Adrienne Einarson of The Motherisk Program, shared some important criticisms of this study:
Here are my main problems with this publication:
1) It is said to be a review on treatment for infertility patients, however, one-third of the paper is about the lack of efficacy of antidepressants in general.
2) To say there is no evidence for effectiveness in pregnancy is true, but that is simply because there are no RCTs (randomized control studies), not because this has been proven.
3) All of the studies that were picked were ones that found negative effects, with no mention of how marginal the statistical significance really was.
4) The paragraph that is the most concerning is the one starting with "There is compelling evidence that SSRI use prior to and during pregnancy can pose significant risks to the pregnancy and to the short- and long-term health of the baby..." Of course there is compelling evidence when you choose your studies to fit your hypothesis.
This was a biased review, not a systematic one as reviews should be. In fact, there was not a single study referenced in this paper that did not find any harmful effects when there are many that have been published. (Personal email communication, 11/4/12)
When I was pregnant with my daughter, I had a sinus infection. I went to a general practitioner for treatment and shared that I was on an SSRI. You would have thought I told her I was shooting heroine every hour on the hour while tossing back jello shots and chain smoking! If I hadn't had the science from my research treatment team at the UCLA Women's Life Center, I could have easily been scared into stopping my medication. Instead I pulled out a collection of evidence-based research I carried in my purse and left it with her.
Unfortunately, for a woman who is pregnant and has depression, trying to decipher headlines and the seemingly constant stream of warnings might be overwhelming. Not to mention the stigma that accompanies depression and motherhood. Most don't realize that to be that mom means you have to be constantly armed with proof that you are not harming your child. This is where having Adrienne Einarson's insights can help you navigate the science, and advocate for your health and well-being.
Take Home Message:
If you are currently pregnant and taking an SSRI, do not abruptly stop taking your medication until you talk health care provider about risks and benefits for your individual care. If you feel you may be experiencing depression or anxiety and are pregnant, you deserve help with your symptoms. Not getting help has been proven to have negative effects on a developing fetus and increases the risk of pre-term birth, lower birth weight, and postpartum depression. Discuss your symptoms with your care provider immediately. I highly recommend using the resources available at OTIS (866) 626-6847 to address your concerns and questions.
Walker would like to thank Alice Domar MD; Adam Urato, MD; Christina Chamber, PhD, MPH; Lucy Puryear, MD; Wendy Davis, PhD; and Adrienne Einarson for their contributions.

Custom Homes
NHS Office Building | Phoenix, Arizona
Neighborhood Housing Services purchased a "historic" commercial property located in the downtown core of Phoenix along McDowell Road to develop their new headquarters within a neighborhood that the Nonprofit serves. The aging structure needed complete rehabilitation to produce adequate environments for offices, meeting and conference rooms and the all important Community Classroom. Rehabilitation work included structural repairs to bowstring trusses in the east portion of the building, with the west portion framed with conventional roof trusses that were structurally adequate.
The design utilized all available volume within the hybrid structure, in order to create spacious interiors. A large skylight was added above the stair to the storage loft, creating daylighting for the rear of the building where window openings were prohibited due to security issues. Angular circulation paths allowed for energetic connections between the front and rear office zones, terminating in a circulation node outside the kitchen that precedes entry to the Classroom.

text: Hi ! After having a good experience with linux-188.8.131.52 under ibm t40, I decided to use it under dell/inspiron 600m. The problem I found is that the touchpad doesn't tap properly. Under linux-2.6.10 with same debian/unstable it does... Somehow it's possible to single tap, but no way to reproduce the tap... double tap is not possible... Annoying? Any ways. For linux-2.6.10 the touchpad is detected as follows (dmsg): input: PS/2 Generic Mouse on isa0060/serio1 While for linux-22.214.171.124: ALPS Touchpad (Glidepoint) detected Disabling hardware tapping input: Alps PS/2 ALPS Touchpad on isa0060/serio1 In both cases the touchpad is detected on isa0060, but in the latest case as a touchpad and in the erliest as a generic ps/2 device. For the latest case it doesn't work, but for the earliest it does... I searched the web but I got really confused... 1) It looks like the touchpad is the one detected on linux-18.104.22.168. Can some one confirm if right? I mean, I tried to find description from dell but didn't find it, so I'm not 100% sure... 2) If the touchpad is not detected correctly by linux-22.214.171.124, then there might be a bug in the kernel but I haven't read aobut it. I really doubt this is the case. But I'm not sure. Can some one confirm? 3) If touchpad is detected correctly by linux-22.214.171.124, then I've read about a lot of stuff on the web. There are several description for fixes, but all of them point to a kernel bug. I didn't file the bug filed against any kernel though. The only filed bug is under red-hat: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=153201. The only fix that sounds to solve the problem is provided by a red-hat guy: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2005-March/msg00304.html. Now I'm not sure here. Has someone tried the previous patch? I looked at recently 188.8.131.52 change_log, and noting shows up there fixing this. Is the bug existant under the kernel archives? Is it planned to be solved? Has some one successfully tried it? 4) There's a mention of the Synaptics touch pad driver at: http://web.telia.com/~u89404340/touchpad. However it looks like it still have problems for 2.6.11 kernels and patches are required still. Any one has tried this synaptics driver under kernel 188.8.131.52 or later succesfully? Any patches applied? OK, it was long, but I have only doubts... So far I'm sticking to 2.6.10 kernel, however I'm afraid mechanism for the touchpad is going to change any ways.... Maybe I'll have to wait for later kernel for getting this working just under kernel (no synaptics driver). If so, has any one any idea of when is it planned to introduce the fix? I read change_log for 18.104.22.168, and the fix seems not to be there, and I also read change_log for 2.6.12-rc4, and there's no reference to this problem there either... Thanks a lot in advance, -- Javier-Elias Vasquez-Vivas

"…And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age." (Matthew 28:20 NIV )
Another sob racked my nine-year-old body but a puddle of tears had soaked my pillow, muffling my cry. It was another three day weekend away from my mom and the comfort of my home. I was visiting my dad's house like I did every weekend, but this weekend was especially hard because it was the monthly long weekend; a day longer than all the other weeks. This morning I woke to the familiar heartache of being homesick and lonely, feelings that plagued me almost every time I came to stay in a place so different from my real home.
In that despairing moment, I had forgotten what Jesus said. The Bible, His letter to us, says that He is with me to the end of the age. That means every second of the day He is inside me comforting me, urging me, and reminding me of the truth. He is a constant companion to my heart. He never leaves me just because I forgot what He said and He never grows tired of helping me through my darkest moments. He is forever with me.
There are still lots of times that I feel alone. But I remember that I have a constant friend who will stick by me no matter what. Other friends will come and go at different times in my life, but God never changes His affection for me. When I start to get that empty feeling in the pit of my stomach from being homesick or lonely, I remind myself that I am not alone. I don't have to feel lonely or homesick because God himself is my best friend and He is always with me!
Maybe you feel alone in a big world or maybe you've been deserted by someone you were depending on. Remember Jesus is your constant friend. Develop a deep friendship with the only One who will never make you feel lonely.

Well, Mr. Green, might want to avoid the England tabloids after a disappointing day manning the nets for the Three Lions.
New Jersey's Tim Howard showed why he is one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League.

Robert Green became England's goat.
England's Robert Green didn't.
The London tabloids are sure to have a field day with Green, who fumbled Clint Dempsey's relatively easy shot into the back of the net in the 40th minute.
One summer after beating Spain, the U.S. put another soccer power on notice Saturday.
Sure, the game ended in a draw. Sure, the U.S. needed a blooper from Green to tie the score at 1.
Nonetheless, the Americans proved to the world that they're not to be taken lightly at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
For the U.S., Howard was the man of the match. Plain and simple. The U.S. defense was shaky at best. The midfield was decent, but not impressive.
The U.S. forwards weren't very convincing, although Jozy Altidore, 20, gave England a mighty scare in the second half.
A victory over the country that invented soccer would have been awesome. A draw is fine, though. The U.S. pulled off one point against the favorite in its group. Now, the U.S. needs to take care of business against Slovenia and Algeria to advance into the knockout stages. Barring a total collapse, the U.S. should advance easily.
The U.S. survived what is expected to be America's most difficult test of the group stage. All things considered, especially England's blistering start and dominance of possession in the first half, Bob Bradley's squad should be proud of what it accomplished.
Below are the halftime and postgame notes and postgame quotes I received from U.S. soccer:
With his goal, Clint Dempsey joins Brian McBride as the only U.S. player to score in two FIFA World Cups.
Robbie Findley is the first player to start the opening game of a FIFA World Cup for the USA without playing a qualifying match during the same cycle since Pablo Mastroeni started June 5, 2002, vs. Portugal.
FIFA World Cup debuts and first starts for USA: Jozy Altidore, Michael Bradley, Ricardo Clark, Jay DeMerit, Robbie Findley, Tim Howard.
The last (time) the back line of Cherundolo, Onyewu, DeMerit and Bocanegra started was 8/12/09 at Mexico.
For the third straight FIFA World Cup the USA's opening game included a goal in the first five minutes. Steven Gerrard's goal was in the fourth minute. Jan Koller scored for the Czech Republic in the fifth minute in 2006, and John O'Brien scored in the fourth minute against Portugal in 2002.
This was only the fifth time in 26 World Cup games that the U.S. was tied in halftime. The previous two 1-1 halftime score lines ended in 1-1 draws (1994 vs. Switzerland in Detroit and 2006 in Kaiserslautern vs. Italy). In the other two games, the U.S. was tied 0-0 at the half and ended up losing (Austria, 2-1, 1990; Brazil, 1-0, 1994).
The tie was just the fourth ever for the U.S. in the FIFA World Cup and second in an opener.
Quotes from U.S. Men's National Team Head Coach Bob Bradley:
On the match:
"Well, it's important for us to still come away with a point. It's a difficult way to start but I felt the response from the team was strong and there are good things we can take away from the match."
On Oguchi Onyewu's improvement during the game:
"I think with Gooch I would agree. Just the part of being back, he's a good competitor. I think the longer the game went on the more comfortable he felt, and that's important to us."
On the play of the U.S. midfield:
"There was big battle going on in the midfield all night long, and I felt that our midfield as a whole did a good job. That's a big challenge because England is also strong in there. In a game like this, it was a fast, hard game and we were pleased with the way our midfield was able to compete with England's."
On the early goal by England:
"I think that play started with a throw-in, the ball went back to Lampard and we stepped up to close him down. Next thing you know, there's a big hole in our back line. When you use the word manage, the ability to control certain situations and not over-commit, I think England made us pay. But it forced us to get ourselves going into the game very quickly after that because there's no more time to play your way in, you're already down a goal."
On Tim Howard's injury:
"Our trainers went on the field and took a look, felt that he could continue. Timmy as always never wants to come off, and now we'll assess over the next few days how he's feeling."
On the team's ability to handle Wayne Rooney:
"It was a good team effort defensively. Rooney is such a mobile player, the way he moves around takes a good level of concentration. I thought in the first half there were still some times when our back line was a little bit out of synch, but I thought that got better in the second half."
On the chance to move past the England hype and focus on the next game:
"We've had a good focus the whole time. We've said it so many times that we understand what the first round is about, but we were still excited to start the World Cup playing against England. It's a big game and a big night, and overall we take away positive things as we now get ready for Slovenia."

Something tells us the friction between Star Jones and Barbara Walters may have just begun anew.
VH1 has announced a new series entitled Satan's Sisters, based on Jones' 2011 novel of the same name, set to hit airwaves in 2017. The series tells the story of The Lunch Hour, a long-running, popular ladies' talk show in which alliances are forged, careers are made, and bridges are burned. Sound familiar to anyone?
In a statement announcing the series, Jones didn't attempt to downplay the obvious connection to The View, though she stressed that the story is loosely based on ABC's daytime talk show. Just how loosely remains to be seen. "I'm so excited that Satan's Sisters, which was such a fun book to write, is finally coming to the small screen," Jones said. "I would be lying if I said that Satan's Sisters wasn't influenced by the soap opera life of daytime TV but it is a work of fiction. All the characters are inspired, in parts, by someone I've worked with, worked for, interviewed, was interviewed by and/or even prosecuted."
E! Entertainment
Having been on the air for almost two full decades, there's no shortage of juicy drama for the writers to pluck from for inspiration, drama that extends far past Jones' 2006 departure from the series—and we're hoping all of it makes its way to the small screen. What follows are the nine moments from The View's history that executive producer Josh Berman (Drop Dead Diva) would have to be insane to ignore.
Debbie's Departure
The first two seasons of The View included panelist Debbie Matenopoulos, who, at age 22 when the show began, was mercilessly mocked by critics for her lack of journalistic experience and perceived lack of intelligence. Though Walters' vision for the series originally included "a young woman just starting out," the veteran journalist clearly grew fed up with Matenopoulos and she was fired before season three.
The SNL Effect
In its early years, The View was routinely mocked on Saturday Night Live, with a variety of woman playing the part of a dim-witted Matenopoulos, a divine Cheri Oteri playing Walters as a grizzled vet with no time for shenanigans and a raucous story about everyone, and Tracy Morgan skewering Jones' legal background (and looks), frequently reminding the audience "I am a lawyer" at the beginning of every comment. A scene with the cast of The Lunch Hour watching themselves be satirized is a must.
Star's Shocker
In April of 2006, Star stunned audiences and her co-hosts alike when she announced she'd be leaving the series that June. Cut to the very next day, when Jones was nowhere to be found, with Walters revealing she'd no longer be a part of the series except for segments that had been previously recorded. Walters later went on record, claiming she felt betrayed that Jones made the announcement two days ahead of schedule.

Rosie vs. Elisabeth
Rosie O'Donnell's first season on The View (she would return eight years later for a second try, only to walk away again), season 10, was fraught with tension nearly the entire time as she frequently sparred over politics with her conservative co-host, Elisabeth Hasselbeck. After one particularly explosive argument in which the producers decided to a split screen to frame them both, O'Donnell was released from her contract early, only two days later.
A Drunken DeVito
During season 10, Danny Devito appeared on the series to promote his movie Deck the Halls. The only problem? The TV legend showed up still drunk as a skunk from a night of partying with George Clooney. The bizarre appearance included burping, cursing, and some unwelcome stories about sex in the White House.
Sherri's World Views
Joining the series in season 11, Sherri Shepherd made headlines in 2007 when she openly stated that she didn't believe in evolution and that she wasn't sure if the earth was flat. It was a moment the show and Shepherd have never been able to live down, no matter how many times it's been blamed on a "brain fart" brought on by nerves. It needs to be fictionalized on Satan's Sisters. Needs to.
ABC/Ida Mae Astute; ABC/Lou Rocco
The XY Chromosome
In season 13, the decision was made to add male co-hosts to The View for the first time ever, marking the first time multiple men sat on the panel at once. We can only imagine how that decision sat with the women of the show, and we'd love to see that imagining come to life.
The O'Reilly Factor
No stranger to heated political debates, The View erupted during season 14 when Bill O'Reilly stopped by for a visit. During a particularly impassioned exchange over whether the proposed mosque near Ground Zero, both Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar up and left the stage, leaving Hasselbeck, Shepherd, and Walters to deal with the aftermath.
Nurses Unite
During a 2015 episode of the series, Behar and co-host Michelle Collins managed offend the nation's nurses while commenting on the previous night's Miss America competition. The backlash was swift and serious, prompting the two to issue apologies just two days later. It was but one of many, many instances when an unpopular opinion—or ill-timed joke—has rubbed audiences in absolutely the wrong way, something that must make its way to Satan's Sisters.
Are there any other moments from The View's storied history that you hope comes to life on VH1's new series?

text: > Documentation about Will Executors can be found at... > > http://download.plt-scheme.org/doc/202/html/mzscheme/mzscheme-Z-H-13.html#%_chap_13 I would like to point out that "wills" first appeared in the Gambit-C Scheme system over 5 years ago. The basic idea is that you can create an object called a will which contains a reference to an object X and a function (the "executor"). When the GC sees that there are no references to X except through the will, the executor is called with X as an argument. The executor can do any sort of finalization on X and can even "resurect" it by simply storing it somewhere that is accessible from the roots. Aside from finalization, you can use wills to implement other interesting things like hash tables, extensible objects and pools. Marc

Encyclopedia of Southern Culture
1990 Dartmouth Medal, American Library Association
1992 Mississippi Authors Award for Non-Fiction, Mississippi Library Association
1990 C. Hugh Holman Award, Society for the Study of Southern Literature
A 1990 Best Reference Book, Library Journal
A 1990 Outstanding Reference Source, ALA Booklist
The American South is a geographical entity, a historical fact, a place in the imagination, and the homeland of an array of Americans who consider themselves southerners. The region is often shrouded in romance and myth, but its realities are as intriguing, as intricate, as its legends.
The Encyclopedia of Southern Culture is "the first attempt ever" notes U.S. News & World Report, "to describe every aspect of a region's life and thought, the impact of its history and policies, its music and literature, its manners and myths, even the iced tea that washes down its catfish and cornbread."
There are many Souths, many southerners. The region's fundamental uniqueness, in fact, lies in its peculiar combination of cultural traits, a somewhat curious, often elusive blend created by blacks and whites who have lived together for more than 300 years. In telling their stories, the Encyclopedia of Southern Culture ranges from grand historical themes to the whimsical; from the arts and high culture (William Faulkner and Leontyne Price) to folk culture (quilts, banjos, and grits) to popular culture (Gilley's and Gone With the Wind).
The Encyclopedia's definition of the South is a cultural one: the South is found wherever southern culture is found. Although the focus is on the eleven states of the former Confederacy, this volume also encompasses southern outposts in midwestern and middle-Atlantic border states, even the southern pockets of Chicago, Detroit, and Bakersfield.
To foster a deeper understanding of the South's cultural patterns, the editors have organized this reference book around twenty-four thematic sections, including history, religion, folklore, language, art and architecture, recreation, politics, the mythic South, urbanization, literature, music, violence, law, and media. The life experiences of southerners are discussed in sections on black life, ethnic life, and women's life. Throughout, the broad goal is to identify the forces that have supported either the reality or the illusion of the southern way of life -- people, places, ideas, institutions, events, symbols, rituals, and values.
The Encyclopedia of Southern Culture was developed by the Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi. Contributors to the volume include historians, literary critics, sociologists, anthropologists, geographers, linguists, theologians, folklorists, architects, ecologists, lawyers, university presidents, newspaper reporters, magazine writers, and novelists.
William R. Ferris is the Joel R. Williamson Eminent Professor of History, Senior Associate Director of the Center for the Study of the American South, and Adjunct Professor of Folklore at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. A former chair of the National Endowment for the Humanities, he has made numerous documentary films and has authored over 100 publications in the fields of folklore, history, literature, and photography. Give My Poor Heart Ease, his book of interviews with Delta blues greats, was published by UNC Press in 2009.
"A discriminating guide to Dixology."
"The Encyclopedia shimmers with information about a region veiled in legend."
"An invaluable piece of work, a resounding reaffirmation that the South does indeed exist in fact as well as myth, despite and because of the profound and often wrenching changes of the past three decades."
--Hodding Carter, Washington Post
"There are treasures within that make the book a favorite for readers above or below the Mason-Dixon line."
"As definitive a survey of the South as could be wished for."
"An exhaustive work. . . . The book's very existence defends the notion--disputed by some scholars--that the South is indeed a unique regional culture, far different from the American norm."

Victoria business owner attends season premiere of 'Undercover Boss'
Jan. 18, 2012 at 5 p.m.
Updated Jan. 17, 2012 at 7:18 p.m.
Dave Adams attended the premiere for reality-TV show "Undercover Boss" in Waco on Tuesday evening.
"It was great," said the Victoria owner of the Aire Serv Heating and Air Conditioning Inc. He couldn't divulge much more information about the show or the premiere.
"We're sworn to secrecy," he said.
Adams said that he was personally invited because his business received the Franchisee of the Year Award in 2011. He's owned the store with his wife Julie Adams since 2005.
The new season for the hit series will premiere on Sunday after "60 Minutes" on the CBS network. The show will feature The Dwyer Group, the holding company of Aire Serv.
Dina Dwyer-Owens, chairwoman and CEO of The Dwyer Group went undercover as a potential trainee whose service brands represent some of the most male-dominated industries, according to a news release from the corporation.
The Waco-based company has 1,600 franchises worldwide, including businesses of plumbers, electricians and landscapers.
The Emmy-nominated program features different executives each week who work alongside their employees. They get to see the effects that their decisions have on others, where the problems lie within their organizations and get an up-close look at both the good and the bad, while discovering the unsung heroes within the company, according to the show's website.
Ronnie Heldt, owner of Premium Appliance & More in Victoria, said he remembers a time where everyone would recognize the CEO.
Heldt described Dwyer-Owens as extremely personable, who would call him on his birthday.
"We're like family," Heldt said." It's very common to know different people."
Heldt said he became aware of the episode about two weeks ago and cannot wait to see the show's outcome.
Adams said the show did reflect the core values of customer service. Some aspects of the show still surprised him. "It's going to be good," he said.
