"China is in a position to emerge as the world's largest trading giant," she said.
Technology • This is one sector that could shine in 2013, experts say. Businesses have been sitting on piles of cash for a long time, waiting for clarity on spending cuts and tax increases.

Once that happens, businesses can plan their spending and likely will make technology updates that they had been putting off, experts say.
Many tech companies, including Apple, Microsoft and IBM, are holding a lot of cash, said Doug Ober, CEO of Adams Express Co. and Petroleum & Resources Corp. in Baltimore. He expects some will buy back their own shares, thus increasing the value of stock held by their investors.
Energy • This sector looks undervalued, largely because of what's been going on with natural gas, said Paul Larson, chief equity strategist for Morningstar. The marketplace has been flooded with a supply, thanks to discoveries of new sources and developments in drilling methods. The price of natural gas has fallen by about two-thirds in the past four years, he said.
Larson predicts that natural gas prices will return to normal levels in the next couple of years. Indirectly, that would benefit Chicago-based Exelon, which acquired Baltimore's Constellation Energy in 2012, Larson said.
Natural gas is used to generate electricity. And as gas prices go up, the cost of electricity will go up for consumers, and that will mean higher Exelon earnings, Larson said.
Health care • As the number of older Americans continues to rise, so does their use of health-related products and services. This should benefit a wide range of health-related businesses, such as hospitals, pharmacy management companies and drug makers, particularly those making less-expensive generics, Ober said.
Health insurers also will benefit from having millions of new customers when the Affordable Care Act takes full effect in 2014, he said.
But not all health care-related companies stand to gain as the United States grapples with the rising cost of health care. Hospitals that have many patients on Medicaid and Medicare, the government programs that pay for health care for the poor and elderly, could see their payments reduced through federal spending cuts, Ober said.
Bonds • "It's going to be boring" in 2013, said Dick O'Brien, a bond expert and senior executive vice president at Folger Nolan Fleming Douglas brokerage in Hunt Valley, Md.
Federal Reserve policymakers plan to keep short-term interest rates low until employment and the economy pick up, so yields on bonds will remain low, he said.
"We will end (2013) very close to where we are presently," O'Brien predicted, "unfortunately for investors and savers."
O'Brien said some clients have been so disappointed in bond yields that he recommended high-grade common stocks that pay dividends, such as Microsoft, ExxonMobil and Johnson & Johnson.
"This is heresy for a bond person," O'Brien said. But Microsoft's 10-year bond in December had a yield of 2.2 percent, while the dividend yield on its common stock was 3.38 percent.
Investors often consider bonds safer than stocks, but some experts warn against forgetting the big risk to bonds - rising interest rates. When rates rise, the price of bonds falls.
Fehr of Edward Jones said long-term rates — those affecting 15- to 30-year bonds — might begin to tick upward in 2013. That would be bad news for the many investors who purchased long-term bonds seeking higher yields.
"It's nearly impossible to project when interest rates will move and where they will go," Fehr said. But at this stage, he added, rates are more likely to go up than down.

I'm not all that into Ke$ha, but when her song "Die Young" came out, I was slightly pathetically obsessed. I like it. Heck, I really liked it. In light of the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary, though, the song's taken on a new meaning. According to TMZ, the once major mega-hit has dropped drastically in popularity over the weekend, from 167 million listeners to 148 million. A music expert (can I have that job, please?) told the website that a song hasn't dropped off this fast since the Dixie Chicks got the boot after that diss to President Bush back in 2003.
Really, you can't blame a nation in mourning for not wanting to listen to lyrics that say, "Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young," can you?
It makes me feel kind of guilty that it took something like this to make me realize that the message this song is sending isn't all that great. When I really think about it, though, I don't think the song would be nearly as offensive if all Ke$ha referenced was going out and having a good time as if tonight was your last night, period.
It's the word "young" that gets me, though. Ke$ha is essentially preaching to live each night like it's your last. The kicker, though, is that if you're dying young, then you're dying too soon. Dying young means you're passing before your time is up, just like all 20 of those little angels at Sandy Hook Elementary.
Is it the right thing to pull the song? Yes, for the time being it definitely is. There's a heightened sensitivity and a level of respect that the families and loved ones grieving deserve. As for Ke$ha, well, I don't really know if she comprehends all of this, but I think she'll survive. She'll make some other song about getting drunk and wasting away soon enough.
Watch the video here and then tell me, do you think pulling "Die Young" from the radio is the right move?
Image via Pacific Coast News
She looks like she crawled out of a dumpster. Also, when have any of her songs portrayed any sort of good message?
So if we find it tacky, distasteful and not to our liking, rather than letting the free speech/selection process decide, let's just have someone decide for us? Whether you like the song or find it distasteful, I can name you at least 100 examples that happen like this almost constantly. For example all the sports analogies to "war", when a football player says "we were in a war ot there today" How do you think a guy that lost his leg in Iraq feels? Or when a celeb says "it just kills me whenever"............and so on and so........remember Charles Manson and Helter Skelter, they still play the song..................It's easy to lash out at people like Ke$ha because you dont like her and transfer by association something awful that nothing to do with her just so you can bash her.
I'm a father of a 13 yr old and I cannot imagine the pain of those poor parents/friends, and Ke$ha never enters my mind when thinking of the tragedy.
Just another example of a stupid fucking BLOG.
again, we're punishing an artist for putting out something (before this happened, mind you) and it having "unfortunate coincidences". personally, i've always believed that you should live life to the fullest because tomorrow isn't promised, etc etc. we all know the phrases. why are we acting like they are suddenly about these kids?
we don't have to bury our heads in the sand, but choosing to start censoring (because taking it off the airwaves is a form of censorship) songs based on lyrics is idiotic. i heard 'jeremy' by pearl jam that same day, and it's specifically about school shootings. let's run to get that taken off the air too! i'm glad people want to finally stop sitting back in silence, but you're going after the wrong culprits.
Yeahhh. It's a song. People have really been grasping for straws here lately...

Wal-Mart has a problem with not-so-fresh groceries
On top of empty shelves and long checkout lines, the giant retailer is also struggling with expired produce and other goods.
After Wal-Mart (WMT) got into the grocery business two decades ago, the company wooed consumers with low prices on dry goods and produce.
But its fresh foods -- such as produce, meat, and bakery and deli items -- are now becoming a headache as dwindling staffing leads to not-so-fresh items lingering on shelves, according to The New York Times.
That was backed up by a Reddit user, who on Tuesday posted a photo of a dozen glazed yeast donuts he bought at a Wal-Mart in Kentucky. The packaging had three "best by" stickers on it, with the older, expired stickers covered by those with more recent dates.
That's not going to help Wal-Mart's image, which is already hurting after a Bloomberg report said the retailer lacked enough workers to keep its shelves properly stocked. As MSN moneyNOW reported Tuesday, Wal-Mart said the story isn't representative of what's happening countrywide with its locations.
But the problem certainly appears to be hurting consumers' confidence in Wal-Mart's grocery business, The Times reports.
Citing internal notes from a meeting of top Wal-Mart managers held last month, the newspaper reports that the retailer's customers are 48% confident in its fresh produce. By comparison, Safeway (SWY) customers are 71% confident in its produce.
That might explain why Wal-Mart has just a 15% share in fresh grocery items while its dry grocery maintains a 20% share, according to data in the article.
Even more startling are Wal-Mart's per-store employee figures. Before the recession started in 2007, each Wal-Mart and Sam's Club location had an average of 338 employees. That has dwindled to only 281, The Times says.
As a result, keeping shelves stocked is a problem. The Wal-Mart meeting's notes reflect this, with one saying, "1 hour out of Refrigeration = 1 day less product life," according to the publication.
Wal-Mart is working on fixing the issue by not stocking food at night and by adding secret shoppers to report on grocery quality. "What we're trying to do this year is really accelerate the produce side of our business with better quality," Jack Sinclair, a Wal-Mart executive for food, told The Times.
But Wal-Mart apparently doesn't want consumers to know about its doughnut problems: The Reddit user said he posted his photo of the old donuts twice to the retailer's Facebook page and says the picture was deleted each time.
The bigger question for Wal-Mart will be whether disgruntled customers can be convinced its salad days aren't expired.
"Why this attack on Wal-Mart????"
Because we want out Main Streets and economy back. Walton family heirs are the equivalent in wealth to 130 million Americans. They are inheritors who have used ruthless tactics to put free enterprise out of business. There would never have been a Wal-Mart if the founder wasn't able to do what he did. Its time to throw administrative terrorism and retained law out of America. I'll take risky free enterprise over being assimilated like cattle every day. You American? Start acting like it.
Wal-Mart's produce never was as fresh as I've found elsewhere in more upscale groceries. I can't find a good apple at the two stores within 5 miles of us. They look and taste like they were trucked in from South America on an open flatbed truck. You do get what you pay for.
As for Wal-Mart chasing out the competition, not here. Krogers, Food Lion, Martins, Whole Foods, Trader Joes, and a boatload of local grocers that offer good value for quality products are doing just fine in this neck of the woods. Personally, I buy my dry goods, milk and bread at Wal-Mart. Everything else, is bought elsewhere.
That is the key, "Good Value". When you have to throw out a day old head of lettuce, or your clothes fall apart in the wash, that's not good value. The Value buy, which Wal-Mart was built on, has given way to cheap at any cost..

To meet the changing needs of our students, we will improve these environments on all of our campuses, including the creation of Warehouse 45, an innovative environment on our Rockwall Campus to disciple and train our future leaders.
We are pleased to announce our next campus will be located all over the world. That's right. We will soon open an Internet campus, with it's own Campus Pastor. No matter where you are, you will be able to attend Lake Pointe in real time. Moms with sick kids, missionaries in China, business and vacation travelers, as well as those who want to experience Lake Pointe for the first time, will now have the ability to do so.
This past season, over 1,900 children played various sports and have been ministered to on our soccer fields at Rockwall Campus. Some of those children were introduced to Christ for the very first time through this ministry. Our plan is to expand that ministry by creating new sports fields on our undeveloped land at our Firewheel Campus.
As our Town East campus in Mesquite nears capacity in two services on Sunday morning, we are preparing to offer the community of Mesquite the option of attending church on Saturday night.
New land will be purchased for a permanent home for our newest campus in Forney.
An unprecedented 25 percent of NEXT will go to strengthen and expand our local, national and international partnerships and alliances. Reaching our NEXT goal will allow us to invest $1 million to plant or strengthen at least seven new churches in under-resourced areas in the United States. We also have potential international partners in: Haiti, Iraq, Jordan, India, Ireland and Serbia.
After recently expanding capacity at both our Town East and Firewheel campuses, we are going to make long overdue improvements to our auditorium and main concourse at the Rockwall campus. These improvements will position Lake Pointe to engage our NEXT generation with the Gospel.

Key Insights On Adjunctive Procedures With Transmetatarsal Amputations
- Volume 24 - Issue 3 - March 2011
- 14610 reads
- 0 comments
Transmetatarsal amputation (TMA) is an effective procedure, which preserves limb length while treating forefoot pathology that necessitates amputation in patients with adequate circulation. Success rates range from 39.4 percent to 93.3 percent.1-14 The most commonly reported complications of a TMA are an equinus or equinovarus deformity of the residual foot, and recurrent ulceration.5,8,15-19
Rates of recurrent ulceration, in studies with a minimum of 12 months postoperative follow-up, range from 6.5 percent to 17.3 percent.2,7,10,11,13 Recurrent ulcerations occur secondary to an equinus or equinovarus deformity of the residual foot.5,15,16,18-20 These deformities are typically present as reducible deformities at the time of the definitive TMA procedure and become fixed deformities over time.21
When patients have peripheral neuropathy, the aforementioned rigid deformities, do not obtain routine foot care and ambulate either barefoot or in inappropriate shoe gear, they may have increased localized pressure leading to callus formation and subsequent ulceration. This often necessitates a more proximal amputation or an aggressive arthrodesis procedure to correct a now fixed deformity.
An equinus deformity becomes worse after a TMA due to loss of the insertions of extensor hallucis longus and extensor digitorum longus. This leaves only the anterior tibial tendon in the anterior muscle compartment, which is overpowered by the pull of the gastrocnemius-soleus.19,22,23
A varus deformity of the residual foot is due to three factors.
First, loss of the forefoot eliminates the weightbearing aspect of the transverse arch of the foot, resulting in a varus posture of the residual foot.3 Second, the loss of the insertions of the intrinsic musculature of the foot and plantar fascia leads to instability of the residual foot and loss of the windlass mechanism, which is responsible for raising the longitudinal arch of the foot with subsequent lowering the medial aspect of the foot. Third, the peroneus brevis is overpowered by the anterior tibial and posterior tibial tendons, leading to exaggeration of subtalar joint pronation and varus deformity of the residual foot.19,22,23
What The Research Reveals About Adjunctive Achilles Tendon Procedures With TMAs
To address an equinus deformity, many podiatric surgeons will consider performing an adjunctive Achilles tendon procedure when performing a TMA. To date, two studies have reported on the efficacy of an Achilles tendon procedure on healing or maintaining a healed skin envelope in patients who have undergone a TMA and had a recurrent ulceration.24,25

Spartans Fall 1 Game Shy Of Final Four
NEW YORK (AP) — It was a streak that always came up at this time of the season. Every four-year senior who played for coach Tom Izzo at Michigan State had made at least one trip to the Final Four.
The streak is over.
When Connecticut started celebrating its 60-54 victory over the Spartans on Sunday at Madison Square Garden, it meant the two seniors who meant so much to this team as it reached the East Regional final in an injury-riddled season — Adreian Payne and Keith Appling — would not get to make the trip this week to North Dallas.
Izzo started his head coaching career at Michigan State with the 1995-96 season. He has taken the Spartans to the Final Four six times and they won it all in 2000.

Hypertensive heart disease
Hypertensive heart disease refers to heart problems that occur because of high blood pressure. These problems include:
- Coronary artery disease
- Heart failure
- Thickening of the heart muscle
See also:
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
High blood pressure increases the pressure in blood vessels. As the heart pumps against this pressure, it must work harder.
Over time, this causes the heart muscle to thicken. The heart must work harder to pump blood out to the body. Without treatment, symptoms of congestive heart failure may develop.
High blood pressure can cause ischemic heart disease because the thicker heart muscle needs an increased supply of oxygen.
High blood pressure also contributes to thickening of the blood vessel walls. This may worsen atherosclerosis (increased cholesterol deposits in the blood vessels). This also increases the risk of heart attacks and stroke.
Hypertensive heart disease is the leading cause of illness and death from high blood pressure.
The heart complications that develop determine the symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and outlook of hypertensive heart disease.
See also:
- Angina
- Arrhythmias
- Heart attack
- Heart failure
- Stroke
- Sudden death
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you have high blood pressure and develop any symptoms.
Have your blood pressure checked at regular intervals (as recommended by your health care provider) to monitor the condition. Frequent blood pressure measurements taken at home are often recommended for people with difficult-to-control high blood pressure.
Treat your high blood pressure. Do not stop or change treatment, except on the advice of your health care provider.
Carefully control diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and other conditions that increase the risk of heart disease.
In addition to medications, recommended lifestyle changes include:
- Diet changes:
- Avoid trans fats and saturated fats
- Increase fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products
- Reduce salt intake (may be beneficial)
- Eat whole grains, poultry, and fish
- Exercise regularly
- Reduce excessive alcohol consumption
- Stop smoking -- cigarettes are a major cause of hypertension-related heart disease
- Lose weight if you are overweight or obese

Summertime S'mores Recipes
Give this iconic campfire dessert of graham crackers, chocolate, and roasted marshmallow an update by adding new ingredients like peanut butter, nuts, ice cream, or fresh fruit or transform the classic flavors into a pudding or cookie.
The Ultimate S'moreThe ultimate in campground dining, made with homemade graham crackers and marshmallows.
S'mores Cookie BarsGraham cracker crumbs, marshmallow topping, and milk chocolate chips baked into a bar is a fun twist on this iconic graham cracker dessert.
Chocolate and Peanut Butter S'moresAnyone who's outgrown the kiddie classic will love this version—gooey-sweet melted marshmallow tempered by bittersweet chocolate cookies and salty roasted peanuts.
Mexican S'moresUsing the three classic s'more ingredients, this sweet treat is prepared under the broiler and uses cinnamon graham crackers. For an adult-friendly option, use spiced chocolate.
S'mores SandwichesMake the sandwiches when the ice cream is still soft, just after coming out of the ice-cream freezer. You can eat them right after they're made, or wrap the sandwiches in plastic, freeze them, and enjoy them for an easy dessert or quick snack later.
Peanut Butter S'Mores BarsLose the guilt when you snack on one of these lightened bar cookies. A peanut butter cookie bases replaces graham crackers and then is topped with marshmallow cream, peanuts, and chocolate chips.
S'mores SundaesNo campfire needed for this clever dessert. You can enjoy these familiar flavors year-round indoors!
Grilled Banana S'moresBe sure to use firm, ripe bananas. Super-ripe bananas will be hard to skewer and may fall through the grill rack.
Peanut Butter Pound Cake S'moresIn this takeoff on the campfire classic, graham crackers are replaced with buttery store-bought pound cake, sandwiched with marshmallow fluff and peanut butter and served alongside a cup of warm melted chocolate for dipping.
S'mores Ice Cream SandwichesGet a double dose of chocolate and marshmallow by layering traditional s'mores with a scoop of rocky road ice cream.
Raspberry S'moresFresh raspberries give the classic s'more a fresh summertime flavor. This after-dinner treat can be made under the broiler or by the campfire.
S'mores PuddingAt less than $1.50 per serving, this fast dessert tops homemade chocolate pudding with mini marshmallows and crumbled graham crackers. Use commercial chocolate pudding cups for an instant, no-cook treat.
Pound Cake S'moresInstead of using traditional graham crackers to complete your s'more, the base becomes soft, moist pound cake. Drizzle with caramel topping and nuts.
Hazelnut-Sugar Cookie S'moresIn this takeoff of the campfire classic, we replaced the customary graham crackers with sugar cookies. We slathered them with chocolate-hazelnut spread, sprinkled them with dried apricots and hazelnuts, and, of course, sandwiched them with marshmallows.
Quick Banana and Milk Chocolate S'moresCreate an irresistible treat--no campfire required! Fluffy marshmallow creme replaces whole marshmallows, and sliced banana is a welcome addition.

Microsoft is readying a new highly configurable firewall for its upcoming Windows Vista operating system that is designed to give administrators much greater control over which applications are allowed to run on the systems they manage.
After just over one month of testing by users of Microsoft's Community Technology Preview (CTP), the firewall is "very much on track" to be in the final Vista release scheduled for later this year and the company is thinking about adding a similar feature for its consumer users, said Austin Wilson, a director in Microsoft's Windows Client group.
The new firewall is called "two-way" because it filters both incoming and outgoing network traffic, meaning that it can be used to block machines that are trying to connect to the Windows PC as well as applications on the PC that are trying to connect to other systems on the network.
This ability to block outgoing traffic does not currently exist in Windows XP, but it will give powerful options to Vista administrators, Wilson said. By using the firewall, administrators could, for example, ensure that their PCs only use a preferred instant messaging application. "If you tried a different instant messaging application, then it would be blocked," he said. "It's really something that we're targeting toward enterprise administrators in corporations."
Though Microsoft has previously discussed plans to include the firewall in Vista, it has only recently provided details on how it will work.
The new firewall capabilities were introduced in last month's CTP build 5270, but they were difficult to access, and turned out to be much more extensive than testers had expected, according to Windows blogger Ed Bott, a co-author of the book, "Microsoft Windows XP Inside Out".
"After installing Windows Vista Build 5270 and examining all security options in Control Panel, you might conclude that Windows Firewall hadn't changed at all," he wrote in a Jan. 14 blog posting.
In order to access the new firewall features, Vista users need to create a customized management console and then configure it to load the "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security."
The console can be run in two ways. It can be used in "single machine mode" to manage only the PC where it has been installed or it can be configured using Active Directory to set up policies that apply to a large number of machines. "If I have 10,000 machines, I can set up a policy, one time, to block a given application. And that would propagate across all of my 10,000 machines," Wilson said.
Though many security products already have similar capabilities, the fact that outbound blocking will be built into the operating system will make life much easier for enterprise system administrators, who will now be able to create custom scripts and group policies to restrict the uses of Windows PCs, Bott said.

LOS ANGELES – Five straight hits, and one nasty blow to the face.
That was the damage the Braves wrought upon Dodgers closer Javy Guerra in a riveting ninth-inning rally that produced three runs and a highly improbable 4-2 comeback win for Atlanta at Dodger Stadium.
"It's a great, great win for the ballclub," said third baseman Chipper Jones, who had the fourth of the ninth-inning singles and drove in the winning run, after which he pumped his fist. "A great series win, a great road trip."
Catcher Brian McCann, who had the second hit of the inning: "This was huge. To win two out of three here. This was an amazing road trip that we just played. To come out west and do what we did, the way we did it – it's pretty special."
The Braves won the last two games to take the series 2-1 and finish a 5-2 trip that began in Arizona. They've won 12 of their past 15 games and handed the NL West-leading Dodgers their first two home losses of the season.
After a red-eye flight back to Atlanta, the Braves are off Thursday and start a seven-game homestand Friday against Pittsburgh, followed by Philadelphia.
"Yeah, we'll probably get in at 6 or 7 in the morning, but it won't matter," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez, smiling. "We may get there before the plane does."
The Braves trailed 2-1 before Freddie Freeman's one-out single in the ninth. McCann followed with a line drive that caromed off the side of Guerra's face, but remarkably didn't knock him out of the game. He was checked by a team trainer and stayed in the game.
No one was more relieved than McCann, whose line-drive foul ball in a 2010 spring training game hit Braves minor league manager Luis Salazar in the face and damaged his left eye so badly that he had to have it removed.
"Oh, man," McCann said. "I told a couple of guys he's my new favorite player. I mean, it didn't even faze him. I hit it as hard as I possibly could, and I don't think it even hit his glove. And for him to get up and pitch … I don't think too many guys would want to mess with him."
Dan Uggla was up next and singled to right to drive in the tying run, after falling behind 0-and-2 in the count. Jones followed and singled through the right side on an 0-and-2 pitch to give the Braves their first lead since the fourth inning.
Jason Heyward's opposite-field single to left pushed the lead to 4-2.
"To come in with one out and nobody on and get five straight hits off a guy that kind of stuff," Jones said. "I mean, I never faced [Guerra] before and he threw me that first pitch, and I was like, oh boy, I've got my hands full here. But he made a mistake to a couple of guys in that inning and we didn't miss them."
Jones' game-winning RBI came after he homered Tuesday on his 40th birthday in a 4-3 win. The Braves also won that one in their last at-bat on Martin Prado's two-out triple in the ninth.
"It's a testament to our team," Freeman said. "We keep going from the first through the ninth."
There was a chorus of boos from a crowd of 26,345 as Guerra left the field. For the sake of Dodgers fans, let's say some were directed at the decision not to pull Guerra after the frightening incident or the next hit … or the one after that …
"These are not my fans, but I was a little disappointed that they booed him," Gonzalez said. This guy took one off the face and tried to stay in there and save the game, and they booed him coming off the field. You've got to give the guy credit for some courage there."
In a span of five batters, the Braves had one more hit than they'd mustered the previous eight innings.
"It says a lot," Braves reliever Jonny Venters (2-0) said of the comeback. "We're always in the game. Especially to come back against Guerra, who's a great closer… It was a big turnaround. We were in the dugout watching it happen. Real exciting."
Venters struck out the side in the eighth inning, and Craig Kimbrel struck out two in a perfect ninth inning for his seventh save.
In the seventh, Braves starter Brandon Beachy gave up a one-out single before reliever Chad Durbin induced a flyout by Mark Ellis. Durbin walked scorching-hot Matt Kemp and lefty Eric O'Flaherty struck out Andre Ethier with two on to end the inning.
"I thought a key to the game was in the seventh inning," Gonzalez said. "Having Durbin come in to face Ellis and get the out, and O'Flaherty get Ethier out. It gave us a chance. Kept it right there, one run, gave us a chance to do what we did there."
The Braves have won 12 of 15 games and five consecutive series after being swept at New York by the Mets to begin the season.
It had been seven months and 42 innings since Braves starter Brandon Beachy gave up a home run. Kemp ended that streak with a leadoff homer in the sixth inning that gave the Dodgers a 2-1 lead.
A lead that looked like it would stand – until the improbable flurry in the ninth.
It was the majors-leading 10th homer for Kemp, who matched Gary Sheffield's 12-year-old franchise record for home runs in April.
Beachy had whittled his ERA to a majors-leading 0.38 in the fifth inning before Dee Gordon's broken-bat groundout drove in the tying run, only the second earned run allowed by the right-hander this season.
Kemp led off the fifth by swinging through the first two pitches. The next two were called balls, and Kemp hit the fifth – a change-up – to the bleachers in left-center field to trigger chants of "M-V-P!, M-V-P!" from a crowd of 26,345 on a cool night at Chavez Ravine, where Kemp has hit five homers in just 31 at-bats.
Intermittent showers never turned into the heavy rain some had predicted might cause only the 18th rainout in the 50-year history of Dodger Stadium.
The Braves took a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning on Uggla's two-out single off left-hander Ted Lilly. He drove in Freeman, who had doubled.
After the Uggla hit, Jones grounded out to end the inning and begin a stretch of 10 consecutive batters retired by Lilly before he left the game after seven innings. Lilly gave up only three hits and one walk.
Until Kemp put the Dodgers ahead, the last homer off Beachy was hit by Raul Ibanez, then of the Phillies, on Sept. 7. Beachy didn't give up a homer in his last three starts of 2011 or his first three this season, and entered Wednesday with a .191 opponents' slugging percentage that led the NL.

Everyone on the team (with the exception of McCann!) is hitting the ball where it is pitched! Thank you again, Mr. Fletcher. Why a player of Brian's caliber and dedication can not learn how to hit a pitch to the opposite field defies the laws of the Universe!! WHY?? WHY?? WHY??

April 26th, 2012
2:01 am
Great game I think Tuesday really has changed this team from top to bottom.
We send Jurrjens to AAA, then Fredi Takes Pastornicky off the bench after benching him for underperforming, Pastornicky has actually hit the best since he has come off the bench, We have Fredi Showing Fire and intensity, arguing a call and getting it overturned, then we have a fired up team that comes back on back to back nights. Consistant pitching from the Starters and dominant Bullpen work by oventabrel.
In fact the only thing to complain about is the fact that the Braves hitters are not going the opposite way into that ridiculous shift. Especially McCann because last year they did that to him and he would drop a bunt on it and get a cheap single……. He needs to do that now. I mean these teams 3rd basemen are playing all the way at SS If you place a bunt on the 3rd base side you could walk your way to a single.
April 26th, 2012
2:02 am
O'Flaherty, Venters and Kimbrel had 6 straight strikeouts.
April 26th, 2012
2:05 am
I think you are right J-Man.
JJ and Pastornicky moves showed that people need to be accountable. And produce.
Pastornicky move was impressive because it was not a big deal, they just took a couple days and forced him to hit a mental reset well before it became a mental head case kind of thing, and his new approach has him getting some hits. They probably just said, you're not in trouble, we just need you to regroup. Pastornicky seems fairly scrappy, I think he will produce enough.

Best addition to this organization is by and far Beth Keener! Amirite or amirite? Can't get enough!
April 26th, 2012

Matt Kemp should have never had the chance to hit that homer. The 0-2 or 1-2 pitch from Beachy was strike three. No doubt about it. Thigh high on the inside corner. The whole ball over the corner, not just a piece of it, which is all that is required.
Why did Kemp get that call? Probably because the first time he batted, he was called out ON THAT SAME PITCH! Same location. But he turned around and argued, so the umpire probably thought, "Oh, that's Matt Kemp. He's leading the world in every hitting category, so that probably was a ball". Wrong Mr. Ump. It was a strike both times. Although I've seen the same thing happen with the great Chipper a lot of times. The great ones, hitters and pitchers, tend to get more umpire calls.

I find it funny how many people hate her and she is the sweetest thing ever……But because she comes out there and reads them overly positive Tweets some people here just say some crazy things about her. But I would love to see her read a tweet in that sweet voice of someone bashing the Braves like we were doing 3 weeks ago. But I like her I just think we need more honest from the tweets but shes probably reading the normal tweets now that we are 12-7. Oh well this is useless dribble hopw the Padres can pull off a win against the Nats and hopefully the Dodgers will beat the Nats up this weekend

We took my daughter to her first Braves game tonight, and oh what a great one to see! So many times growing up in Duluth I stayed up till 2am to watch the Braves win games like this in the early '90s when we were in the Western Division – - it was great to watch it live and be home by 11:30! These are the kind of games we have lost the last few years (I was at the Brooks Conrad SF playoff game, puke), so maybe that's a good sign. I can't remember Chipper being more clutch at any time in his career than he has been this year in the games he's played. Here's to that continuing. Looks like Beachy and Minor will be dependable for 7+ innings and 3 or less runs per start. With Hudson coming back and Hanson pitching well, this could be a fun season.
April 26th, 2012
4:40 am
@ Joe Adcock…. Please, we know you were a great hitter, but get a clue. McCann is the Braves best hitter and uses more of the field than any one on the team not named Freddie Freeman.
GO BRAVES!!! Please do more of this in September & October!

Am I the only one that can see that McCann is having trouble seeing the ball, (no pun intended)? Watch him when he comes to the plate, how he blinks multiple times and squints before taking his stance. That is a sign of someone who is having focus issues. I would be interested in someone comparing his stats before and after eye surgery.
April 26th, 2012
7:25 am
They're pounding Mac on the inner third every at-bat. He is hitting it where it's pitched. If they make a mistake out over the plate, he'll be happy to take it the other way. The hits will start coming for him.
April 26th, 2012
7:43 am
Coming into this season my starting rotation was, in order, Beachy, Minor, Medlen, Hanson and Delgado and start JJ in long relief or in AAA until if and when he reclaims his stuff. Then, when Huddy returned, decide among the last two after 3-4 starts who gets moved out of the rotation.
Well, I was spot on with Beachy being our best pitcher followd closely by Minor, and I still think Medlen is better than Hanson; I can live with it for now.
Great trip ending with a 9th inning rally against the Dodgers…and yes I still despise the Dodgers for just dominating our team in the old Western Division in the 70's and 80's.
Validation is sweet!
April 26th, 2012
8:00 am
I'm so glad I didn't go to bed in the 7th. What a great game to watch. I can't believe…and am relieved… their pitcher was not injured on that shot to his jaw. I'm wondering what it looks like this morning. Still, kudos to him for staying in there even though, in hindsight, they may should have pulled him out.
What a start to the year after the belly flop opening series in NYC. I never imagined I'd see Chipper doing so well in a part time role and Francisco is filling in nicely. And Tyler Pastor-how-do-you-spell-the-rest-nicky is exceeded expectations. Even when he struggles at the plate, you see he's trying to do the right thing. Heyward is swinging a good bat. Uggla is hitting. Bourne is getting on base. It's what I've been saying: If…*if*…the batters hit as they can (and Tyler has an okay year) then this line-up could be scary.

Once Hudson gets back – look out, think the staff of Beachy, Minor, Hudson & Hanson will be more than enough to reach play-offs.
Perhaps they let Bourne go as FA unfortunately, but sign Hanson long term.
Heyward can play center and why not – make him to biggest lead-off hitter in baseball.

Wow. What an impressive win and one heck of a road trip! This may be the year. I love the team chemistry. Chipper is flat out raking and Beachy and Minor have been outstanding. Fredi is pulling the right strings and Wren looks like a genious so far! Very impressed with my Braves!

This team is really fun to watch now. Beginning to look like the good old days of the 90s again. The slice hit by Uggla set the tone in the 9th for Chipper and Heyward to knock in their runs. Beautiful stuff! When do we play the Nats by the way??

GoTigers nailed it – I was fuming that Kemp wasn't rung up on that 0-2 pitch. It was right there. Absurd that he got another chance, though you have to give him credit for taking full advantage of it. The way I see it, the baseball gods evened things out in the ninth because Kemp should have been on the bench.
Now that I got that off my chest…great win Bravos. This team is showing signs of having a lot of the right stuff. Wish we had one more consistent bat in the middle of the order, but that's a small gripe at this juncture with the way we're playing. If Huddy comes back throwing well, this club is in business. Beachy and Minor are lynchpins for the forseeable future; kudos to the front office for having the foresight to hang on to both guys – particularly Minor – during last year's trade discussions.

Wasn't that the same umpire that called Kemp out on a close play at 1st the night before, when it appeared that he beat the throw and FF's foot was not on the bag?
Was it a coincidence that the umpire didn't ring him up on a pitch that looked like a sure strike three?
was that one of those make-up calls?
Inquiring minds want to know.
It doesn't matter, the Braves won.
go bravos!

Great game and a great win. I believe the key to this team is the young guns – Freeman, Heyward, Beachy, Minor, Pastornicky. They have the drive, persistence and talent to make the Braves go to the playoffs. If they can avoid injuries and stay hot, they have a good chance.
April 26th, 2012

How about this? The Braves did get put out 27 times in that game.

J. Adcock—–It isn't slow pitch softball! Even great hitters rarely hit the ball exactly (or close) to where they want. If they could, there would be very few hitters with batting averages below .700.

Two most impressive things about win and road tr. ip: Uggla's AB's, particularly in 9th when he went with a pitch to right and drove in the tying run; Fredi's use of situational pitchers, particularly Durbin and EOF last night. I honestly thought he was out of his mind for bringing in Durbin, and then leaving him to pitch to Kemp. But the BB worked and EOF got the left-hander. If Fredi keeps pulling the right strings and Uggla and Heyward continue going with the pitch, I may have to reevaluate my opinion of this team. A most impressive series win. GO BRAVES!
April 26th, 2012

Ugglas ab was huge and chipper showed why he is still clutch and is great to have in those situations the offense is clicking and the pitching is great bring on the bucs GO BRAVES!

Joe, you obviously do not watch a lot of baseball. BMac has been hitting the ball hard, just at people. He has been close to several Home Runs and had a bullet up the middle two games ago that would have been an RBI. Also, he hit a bullet up the middle that hit the pitcher in the face last night. BMac is a pull hitter and guess what, he has better numbers than any catcher in the game, so you questioning his hitting style is pretty asinine.
April 26th, 2012
10:53 am
Brian McCann is hitting the ball where it's pitched. The defense is set up for inside pitches and the pitchers pitch him inside. So he hits it to the right and he is hitting it hard.

GREAT-worth staying sort of awake until 1:10AM- Braves deserve a few like this one, they had everything go against them from last September until two weeks ago- Braves Fans will really miss Chipper and we hope he keeps half way healthy for all of 2012- I have all over Ugla as not "a winner at $11. million per-'- he was HITTNG WINNER in LA-keep it up Dan, Braves CANNOT win without your CONSISTENT HITTING AND FIELDING

I have no respect for Chipper Jones, he whines and fakes injuries.
If the Braves can get Tech's current 3rd baseman in the draft they will be much better off.
April 26th, 2012
11:43 am
I'm pretty sure Joe Adcock is dead so why is he hatin on McCann? Dude is a beast and the top catcher in the NL and arguably the MLB. Keep on playing small ball and we'll keep winning. Way to go Braves!!!
April 26th, 2012
11:52 am
I ditto Charles' ditto of GoTigers. Clearly the ump's call was influenced by 'who' it was and the glare he got when he called the same pitch strike three earlier. Having said that, the way it turned out was absolutely perfect. Kemp was so damned pleased with himself after he hit that HR and so 'cocksure' that 'he' was gonna be the hero…I mean how could it have been any sweeter? Maybe if he had come up in their last at bat and get 'smoked' by young Mr 'K' – my new name for Kimbrel – yeah that might have made it even more complete…then again having the smug (that's what I saw in him last night) so-in-so sit there on the bench and watch the spotlight shift over to the Braves' dugout was about as good as it gets.
And I couldn't agree more with McCann about the kid Guerra. Man – and by the way Mac, he, in fact, didn't go down – I thought at the time that if he could take that shot and it not even faze him, he's a hellofaman…and like McCann, he's now my favorite Dodger.
April 26th, 2012
11:57 am
What a great win, and it was awesome to see the guys so fired up last night. I've missed that fire from this team the last couple of years!
April 26th, 2012
12:01 pm
BMac is a fine catcher, but he is nowhere near the ALL-AROUND catcher that Yadier Molina is. Molina will save more runs with his arm during the season that will more than make up for any shortage of RBI's ha may have. Teams run on BMac all the time, as evidenced by him allowing OVER 100 sucessful steals last season, while Molina only had some 65 attempts against him last season. He also had a higher % of throw outs than did BMac. McCann is a solid catcher, but he is not the best.

@Larry, good call on that rotation. I was worried Beachy would have a bit of the "sophomore slump" – but he's been lights out. Heard someone on the radio on my way home say he might be the Braves' next John Smoltz. Can't say I'd complain about that (minus the injuries, fingers crossed). Minor is pitching like he has a bit of a chip on his shoulder, like he has something to prove. Love that. Can't wait to get Huddy back.
April 26th, 2012
1:17 pm
McCann is not as good on defense as Y. Molina, but how many catchers are as good as Molina on defense?
I think that McCann will generate more runs on offense, than Molina can defend against on defense, just my opin.
Also, a lot of bases are stolen due to the pitchers allowing the base runners to get too big of a lead, or because of the pitchers delivery to the plate(i.e. Tommy Hanson). Hence the phrase, 'he stole that one of the pitcher'.
April 26th, 2012

Hi everyone, What a great comeback!!! Go braves.

Is it just me ladies and gentlemen or do you get the feeling that this team has the feel of those mid 90's teams… Remember the ones where you never went to sleep because you never knew what was going to happen in the 9th inning? The bullpen is the best in the league, Starting pitching from minor, delgado, beachy, hanson well ok everyone but Jurjjens is performing well. Playing good solid Def and theres some energy on the bench that hasnt been there in years and I Love it…. I might actually shed a tear to see chipper win one in his last year. Go BRAVOS keep it up
Freddi for manager of the year… Eat freddi haters

@ Spud, it's coming, just give it time. Larry will be back on the DL soon…………
And for Ilovetacos, Goldenrod and other Chipper haters; the reality is, he may only be good for 80-100 games this year. But most people with at least half a brain (and you guys are not included in that group obviously) will understand that if the guy gives you the kind of production he is giving you right now (for you braniacs, he is hitting about .280 and has 3 hr and 10 rbi in 36 AB's while the other four guys with more than 10 rbi all have double the number of AB's), then we will take an RBI per game and a homerun every 12 ab's as well as getting walked and guys behind him getting good pitches to hit because people still fear him. But hey…don't let facts/statistics and a HOF career get in the way of your stupidity. I'll take Chipper for as many games as he can give us.
April 26th, 2012
1:31 pm
Maybe it's just me but Pastornicky getting nailed in the back seemed to be a purposeful payback pitch – just not sure why it would be done. MLB pitchers are generally too good to make a pitch like that without intent. Anything to it?
April 26th, 2012
1:41 pm
I agree bart. I think he felt he could get out of the inning that way. He didnt have to hit him. It was a lot of frustration.
April 26th, 2012
2:37 pm
My heart was in my throat last night when BMac hit Guerra. Poor Brian, that's all he needed….to hit another guy in the head. I couldn't believe Guerra stayed in.
Didn't mind losing sleep last night to watch that fine 9th inning comeback.
April 26th, 2012
3:36 pm
Damn it! I can't really afford MLB.tv Premium. After the open ing series in NY. I didn't think it mattered. Now I've got to pony up the money. I'm so upset (NOT).
Don't worry about the haters. They will continue no matter what happens. Their hate was never based on anything rational anyway.By the end of the season, we'll all be demanding that the Braves make Chipper into some kind of coach for next season, travelling with the team whenever they go into a funk.
April 26th, 2012
3:41 pm
reckingball, You're right that BMAC isn't as good a defensive catcher as Molina and few are. What shouldn't be overlooked is how good a job Brian does at the catchers true primary purpose. He's as good as any catcher in the game at calling a game and controlling his pitchers. Molina is good at that too, but I think Brian is better.
April 26th, 2012
3:48 pm
Let's look a little further. Over 100 stolen baess yielded last season. How many scored and how many cost the Braves a game?? Then think that only one more win would have gotten them into the playoffs. Also, Molina is more durable, having caught more games the past 3 seasons than any other NL catcher. McCann came in as a more complete, polished catcher, and he has not improved too much through the years, while Molina has worked hard each season to improve in all aspects of the game. He always was a superior defensive player, but now his offense is about equal to McCann. Molina saves alot of runs with his arm, both in steal attempts and pick-offs at 1st and 3rd. He is more durable; He hits with authority and is very hard to strike out. Taking all aspects of the position into consideration, Molina is the better catcher..
April 26th, 2012
3:57 pm
Why dont you become a Cardinal fan and leave McCann alone.
April 26th, 2012
5:33 pm
@Crawford, I am sorry if i hurt your little feelings. I have watched both play alot through the years, and IMO, Molina is the better catcher. That is no knock on McCann, because he is the second best. He is just not the all around threat that Molina is, and there is nothing wrong with being # 2 behind Yadier Molina.
April 26th, 2012
6:30 pm
The Braves are 12-3 since their 0-4 start and still some morons and whiners come out from under their rocks to pollute the Braves blogs. GO BRAVES!

Wow, Chipper's still playing? Four games in a row. Must be a record.
April 26th, 2012
7:09 pm
Mr not so fast. When the chips are down, I put my money on McCann. He will get you that winning hit. Take your Molina back to St Louis and you go with him. Stay the hell out of Atlanta with that attitude.
April 26th, 2012
7:11 pm
Been on the road 3 days. Time to see what is cookin at the house. See yall tomorrow. Go Braves!!!
April 26th, 2012
7:48 pm
When Guerra got hit in the face I immediately yelled out, "Oh my God!" I was at home watching the game on the TV and I yelled that. It was instinctive.
I could not believe he stayed in the game and would not had been surprised to see him knocked out cold in a pool of blood! It was prepared for something truly horrible and was very happy to just see him stay on his feet.
To boo him coming off the field — that's just low class man! LA fans aren't even filling the seats (or coming close to filling the seats) and they have one of the best teams in the NL to watch play. Los Angeles is a shell of the kind of city it used to be.
April 26th, 2012

You losers. Braves are still awful and will fade as always. Time to fire Chipper and have Fredi retire.
April 26th, 2012

Harley Davidson Right Side Saddle Bag Vault for Hard Bags
Secure Your Valuables in Your Harley Davidson Hard Bag Without Worry!
You know how easy it is for a thief to "pop open" your Harley saddle bags. Anyone with a simple screwdriver can get into them in seconds. Now you have a solution with the "Saddle Bag Vault" a firearm case for Harley saddlebags. This is for the Right Side only.
The Saddle Bag Vault is a steel safe made specifically for Harley Davidson saddle bags. The Saddle Bag vault has two purposes. It provides you with a secure safe to lock up your valuables when left in your bags, AND it secures your saddle bags to your bike frame, eliminating the chance of having your bags stolen.
Convert your Factory Storage Console to a Harley Bagger Vault – No Drilling or Bike Modifications
These vaults have been engineered to fit perfectly inside your Harley Davidson Full Dress Harley Hard Bags. Once you lock the Console Vault and close the lid of your hard bag, no one will be able tell a vault is inside.
The installation of the Saddle Bag Vault does not alter the original integrity of the bike. No part of the bike or existing bag is cut, drilled, modified or damaged in any way.
Use the Harley Right Side- Saddlebag Safe to Secure Your Valuables
The Saddle Bag Safe is great for securing your valuables when you just want a safer place to lock them down. Typically, the Harley Safe is used for the securing of:
- Extra bike key in an emergency
- Wallet, cash, credit cards, cameras
- Registration and proof of insurance
- Medicine, jewelry, passports, and tickets
Security for Law Enforcement Officers and those with CCW Permits
If you carry a CCW permit you can face the concern on how to properly, and responsibly secure your weapon. Many businesses will not allow anyone to bring firearms into their businesses (other than on-duty law enforcement). The following are just a sample of locations which usually restrict access to those carrying firearms:
Legally posted establishments and (private) property, including clubs, and sporting, and event venues
Federal property such as IRS, INS, and Post Office buildings
Military recruitment offices public venues such as concert halls, stadiums, and amusement parks
Harley Bagger Vault - Saddlebag Safe - Easy Installation
For Right Side Only-To install, remove your existing bag. Add the included (longer) vault bolt into the existing bolt hole which is already drilled on the bike frame, and replace your saddle bag. With your saddle bag installed, slide the Saddle Bag Vault into the front end of your saddle bag, allowing the saddle bag bolt to enter into the pre-drilled safe hole. Once the bolt is inside the vault, use the included steel nut and secure the bolt in the inside of the vault. This also prevents the saddle bag from being removed without opening the safe.
Harley Bagger Vault Motorcycle Safe Features Solid Bank Vault-Like Construction
The Harley Davidson Saddle Bag Safe was designed with bank vault technology in order to help protect its contents. The Saddle Bag Vault is the only mobile safe on the market that features a unique three-point, high-security lock system that cannot be defeated, even if drilled. Some of the other security design features include:
- Vault is made from massive 12-gauge, cold rolled plate steel and engineered like nothing else in the industry.
- All joints of the vault feature welded tab and notch seams which creates a fortress for your valuables.
- Rear locking hinge pins, just like the ones used on bank vault doors.
- Exclusive three point locking system that resists prying even if the lock is drilled out.
- Perfectly balanced spring assisted lid which makes the 12-gauge steel lid easy to lift open.
Harley Saddlebag Safe Fits all Harley Davidson Full Dresser Bike Saddle Bags
The Saddle Bag Vault is made specifically for Harley Hard Bags from 1994 to 2013 only!
Important Note: This vault will not fit Harley motorcycles with soft bags.
Additional Photographs of the Harley Davidson Saddlebag Safe
The photo above depicts the Saddle Bag Vault installed in an '07 Harley Ultra
Vault includes 3-dial combo lock or key lock
- The lid is spring loaded open
- The safe is finished in an industrial powder coat camera wrinkle finish

Flywheel Sports and Lauren Moshi's Hot New Clothing Collab
Written on March 28, 2013 at 10:47 am , by Heather Muir
One of my favorite ways to get motivated to workout is by wearing a cool outfit (hey, whatever floats your boat, right?). So I was thrilled to learn that my favorite Spin class—Flywheel Sports—recently partnered with one of my favorite celebrity designers—Lauren Moshi (a sister-brother duo that uses amazing fabrics and hand draws all of their designs)—on a rocker-esque line of pieces that are perfect for killing it at the gym (or your favorite Spin class, just saying) or hanging out on the weekends. I'm most excited to slip on the white tank pictured above but the collection also offers comfy black and white sweatshirts and sweatpants, all stamped with Flywheel's tagline, "You So Fly" and Moshi's signature diamond lips' print. When you're mustering up energy for that last mile, hill or rep, seeing one of these sassy pieces in the mirror might be just the boost you need. You can get your hands on the clothes at Flywheel studios in New York City, Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles and more. For more info, go to flywheelsports.com.

Glendale City Council is expected to vote Tuesday on a revamped lease agreement between potential Phoenix Coyotes owner Greg Jamison and the municipality.
The agreement would pay Jamison $320 million over 20 years and would be expected to keep the Coyotes in Arizona. If the new lease agreement is accepted, Jamison and his partners will attempt to complete the purchase of the team from the NHL by the end of this year.
Sources tell Scott Burnside of ESPN.com that financing for the $170 million deal is in place and the remaining challenges are the approval of the lease agreement and approval by the NHL's board of governors.
ESPN.com adds that the passing of the new agreement is not a guarantee because of the city's financial situation and the opposition to the deal by Glendale Mayor Elaine Scruggs.
If the lease agreement is not approved, it's expected that would end Jamison's bid to buy the Coyotes and the league may have little choice but to begin the process of finding a new home for the team.

5 reasons to shop on Small Business Saturday
Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Free Shipping Day, and now Small Business Saturday. Is yet another designated shopping day worth it? Yes.
This post is from Brandon Ballenger at partner site Money Talks News.
This weekend is one of the busiest shopping periods of the year, and it's crammed with made-up holidays -- including one you may not have heard of yet, but should.
After Thanksgiving, there's Black Friday. We all know this one, and like Christmas decorations appearing on shelves, it seems to be creeping closer. This time around some people are joking about "Black Thursday," since many retailers are set to offer deals through the night or open at the stroke of midnight Friday.
Then there's Cyber Monday, where after recovering from the frantic shopping weekend, people head back to the office -- and then continue shopping on the work computer because the online deals go just as fast. (And while it's a few weeks off, there's Free Shipping Day too.)
American Express is intent on bridging the gap between Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Last year, they introduced Small Business Saturday to encourage people to shop at locally owned stores. In the video below, Money Talks News founder Stacy Johnson introduces this new designated shopping day and asks a small business owner what she thinks of it. Watch it, then read on to hear how shopping at small businesses can benefit you.
A survey by American Express found 93% of consumers believe shopping at small businesses is important, and they're putting their money where their mouths are by spending about a third of their discretionary income at local small businesses. Here are a few reasons you should join them by participating in Small Business Saturday this year:
- Get free money. For Amex cardholders, shopping local on Nov. 26 can net a $25 credit on a $25 purchase. Check out the Small Business Saturday Facebook page for details on how and where. (FedEx partnered with American Express to offer 40,000 $25 Amex gift cards to non-Amex customers too, but they ran out in about an hour.)
- Find something different. They often have unique items or services you won't find in the mass retailers. These can make great gifts.
- Preserve unique places to eat, drink, and shop. That uniqueness can also help create a community character and a sense of place. Think of the reasons you like to travel -- it's probably not because the destinations have another McDonald's or Walmart. Shopping at these stores helps keep them alive, and encourages new ones.
- Make friends. The service is often much better. More than 20% of consumers in the American Express survey listed being greeted by name and getting personal recommendations as the primary reason for shopping small. Local businesses depend on maintaining relationships, unlike the giants who sometimes seem too successful to care.
- Improve the community. Small businesses support the local area with their taxes, by creating jobs, and often by buying from and working with other local companies. Many also support local nonprofits and community groups.
Small Business Saturday is good news for owners, too. Besides the benefit of getting extra customers, American Express is offering these freebies for small business owners…
- Free Small Business Saturday posters (to draw in customers seeking the $25 credit).
- 20% discount on printing (through FedEx Office).
- $100 worth of free, locally targeted Facebook advertising.
- $100 LinkedIn ad credit (although you may have to pay for a LinkedIn account if you don't have one).
- Help with social media marketing.
For more info on these perks, check the "For Your Biz" tab on the Small Business Saturday Facebook page.

-- Robert Preidt
THURSDAY, Feb. 17 (HealthDay News) -- People who use the
pesticides rotenone and paraquat have a 2.5 times increased risk of
developing Parkinson's disease, a new study finds.
U.S. researchers compared 110 people with Parkinson's disease
and 358 people without the nervous system disorder. All of the
participants were enrolled in the Farming and Movement Evaluation
Study involving licensed pesticide applicators and their
"Rotenone directly inhibits the function of the mitochondria, the structure responsible for making energy in the cell," study co-author Freya Kamel, a researcher at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, said in an institute news release.
"Paraquat increases production of certain oxygen derivatives that may harm cellular structures," she added. "People who used these pesticides or others with a similar mechanism of action were more likely to develop Parkinson's disease."
The study was recently published online in the journal

The Sony Open will announce on Thursday that semi-retired former No. 1 Martina Hingis has accepted a wild card to play doubles with friend Sabine Lisicki at the Key Biscayne tournament, which begins next week.
Hingis, the five-time Grand Slam winner and crowd-pleaser, is now 33 and dabbling in doubles. She joins a star-studded Sony field that includes Rafael Nadal, Serena Williams, Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Andy Murray and Maria Sharapova.
Fans should also keep an eye out for Ukrainian player Alexandr Dolgopolov.
Last week, Dolgopolov released a video calling for peace in his homeland, and it included messages from Nadal, Djokovic, Murray and Gael Monfils.
On Monday night in Indian Wells, Calif., Dolgopolov (known as "Dolgo") did something that he hopes brought Ukrainians a short respite from the government unrest and violence back home: He beat world No. 1 Nadal and established himself as a player to watch heading into the Sony Open.
Dolgopolov was 0-5 against Nadal going into Monday's third-round match at the BNP Paribas event and had never won a set against the Spaniard. He lost to Nadal two weeks ago on clay in the Rio final. But this time, his aggressive style and varied pace threw Nadal off his game and the Ukrainian won 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 (7-5).
The 25-year-old jumped from No. 57 to No. 31 in February and beat three top 20 players in Rio, including David Ferrer.
"As I said, it's good to make some results and make the people forget a little bit and have some happy moments in the news, [something] except the politics," he told reporters after the win over Nadal.
As for Nadal, he did not blame the loss on his back problems. He said he "played bad," never got in rhythm and was looking ahead to the Sony. "I will try to rest a few days and be fresh mentally, and I hope to be ready for Miami."
Azarenka withdraws
Two-time Sony Open winner and world No. 4 Victoria Azarenka on Wednesday pulled out of the tournament because of a foot injury.
"I am very sad not to be able to compete at this year's Sony Open in Miami," Azarenka said. "I love playing in the U.S., and my results in the past were also great. But it's been now over a year that it seems that bad luck has been following me. I couldn't play in Miami last year with a problem in my ankle, and now this with my foot. It is time for me to think about my recovery, and I will work hard for that. I wish the tournament all the best for this 2014 edition. Miami is an amazing place and a great tournament. I hope to be there next year fully recovered and able to be competing for the title."
Wild cards
Miami-born Haitian American Victoria Duval, who made a splash at the U.S. Open last year after stunning No. 11 Samantha Stosur in the first round, is among the players granted wild cards to the Sony Open main draw.
The wild card list also includes former world No. 2 Vera Zvonareva, coming back from a shoulder injury; former No. 3 Nadia Petrova, 2006 Australian Open finalist Marcos Baghdatis, and American Ryan Harrison.
