Here is an eye-opener story about the Titans from Mike Freeman of CBSSports.com - Darren.
via CBSSports. com
"After Tennessee owner Bud Adams went all Donald Trump on his Titans team (the firings -- not the birtherism) let's just say: Mission accomplished.
Said one Titans assistant coach to me: "Everyone is scared. We're all looking over our shoulders now."
"When I say everyone, I mean everyone," the coach said. "There is a sense of panic now throughout the organization."
This source said that in the hours after Adams' declaration, some in the organization began covertly looking for other jobs just in case there is a mass firing at the end of the season. Considering this is only the halfway point, that tells you how much Adams' statement scared people inside the Titans.
There are two ways to look at this. In threatening to fire everyone from the coaches to the dudes who wash the underwear, Adams is making people accountable. Accountability is a good thing.
Yet in the NFL, these types of edicts don't work. In fact, they make things worse, especially in the locker room. Coaches begin to call plays they normally would not, make roster moves they normally would not, all out of desperation, and that kind of desperation rarely works.
Worse, players know the coaches are desperate and can tune the coaches out, knowing that next season these same coaches might be gone.
In some ways, Adams' edict might have torpedoed the very franchise he's trying to save.
Plus, Adams is being somewhat hypocritical here. It's not like he has been this great owner with this long track record of winning. His franchise has appeared in one Super Bowl, and Adams rode Jeff Fisher's admittedly overrated coattails. The franchise has never been able to stock talent with the best of the NFL, and some of Adams' hires have been questionable.
Current head coach Mike Munchak being one of them.
When doing that upcoming franchise evaluation, Adams might want to look in the mirror first."

Making healthy lifestyle changes alone is enough to help some people reach the cholesterol goals prescribed by their doctor. Others, however, need to take a cholesterol-lowering medication, as well.
According to the American Heart Association, there are five main types:
Statins (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, lovastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin, pitavastatin). These drugs work mainly by lowering LDL ("bad") cholesterol. They typically reduce LDL by around one-third. They can also help raise HDL ("good") cholesterol and lower triglycerides (other blood fats). Statins work by slowing down the body's production of cholesterol. They also increase the liver's ability to remove LDL from the blood. In research involving people who already had heart disease, statins led to significant reductions in heart attacks and heart disease deaths. They may also prevent first heart attacks in people who are at high risk of developing heart disease.
Bile acid sequestrants (cholestyramine, colesevelam, colestipol). These drugs also lower LDL, although somewhat less than statins. These medications work by binding with bile acids in the intestines and forcing them to be eliminated in the stool rather than absorbed. The liver needs cholesterol to make bile acids, so as more bile is lost, more cholesterol from your body is used up to make additional bile.
Nicotinic acid (niacin). This B vitamin increases HDL and lowers LDL and triglycerides when taken at levels higher than dietary requirements. Nicotinic acid is sold as both a prescription drug and a dietary supplement, but only the prescription form should be used for cholesterol lowering.
Fibrates (gemfibrozil, fenofibrate). These drugs help mainly by lowering triglycerides. They may also lead to modest improvements in LDL and HDL levels.
Selective cholesterol absorption inhibitors (ezetimibe). This drug lowers cholesterol by reducing the amount of cholesterol absorbed by the intestines. Ezetimibe, bile acid sequestrants, or nicotinic acid are sometimes combined with a statin to help people reach their LDL cholesterol-lowering goals.

A traditional poll surveys a few thousand people over several days. With social media, we could engage millions of people in hours. What could we learn from the wisdom of the crowd?
So We monitor the 2012 Presidential election on Twitter. Currently, we are tracking:
We follow approximately ten million active American Twitter users. These users are filtered based on their locations and connections. Thus we could remove most irrelevant tweets from spam-bots or foreign countries. A large set of keywords is used to track election-related tweets, and as of Oct 9th, there are over 60 million tweets since Jan 1st, 2012. Of course, with such amount of data, there are a lot more analyses that could be done. Suggestions are most welcome.
We are grateful for people in the open source community who created great tools that made this project possible. Our appreciation goes to Ubuntu, OpenJDK-Java, Twitter4j, MySQL, Flask, d3js, Google chart tools, Bootstrap and many others we are not even aware of.

Topic - UKC Cuillin Conditions report 22 January 2013
Mike Lates - on 22 Jan 2013
Conditions are serious but excellent. Crampons have been going on not far above 400m. Neve, often iron-hard, continues right up to 800m with windslab accumulations quite extensive above here. Fortunately these seem pretty stable and there has been nothing fresh to add to worries for over a week now.
The crest has a good covering that varies from rock-hard to (more often) semi-consolidated powder in drifts; about knee-deep or so. Most worrying is traversing on the flanks.
Climbing conditions are amazing, particularly on the mid-level cliffs. New routes this weekend included Branching Gully (IV) on An Dalliad, a line right of Waterpipe (III), Dyke Gully & Buttress (V,6), Far from the Crowd (IV), South Crack of Caisteal a Garbh Coire (IV,5) and Vixen Groove (V,5).
Possibly the greatest epic of the meet was Dave Fowler's 50m space "walk" along the glacis above the Cioch Slab. Totally banked out and reaching the end of the rope he then had to hope Ally would start taking the rope back in as he came back!
Drinking conditions are ideal too:)

Window Guards & Stops - Keep Children Safe
Window guards are an important and often-neglected device for the safety of children, particularly those under 5 years of age.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that each year more than 4,000 children are treated in hospital emergency rooms for injuries received from falling from a window. The CPSC knows of at least 120 window-fall related deaths of children since 1990. Most of the injuries and deaths were to children under the age of 5.
On June 21, 2000 the CPSC announced new safety standards for window guards to help protect children from falls, while ensuring that the guards do not prevent escape from a fire.
MedicineNet.com therefore wishes to share this important child safety information with you. (Although the wording here is largely ours, the information is based on the new safety standards set by the CPSC. -- Editor, MedicineNet.com)
Are window guards hard to install?
No. Window guards can be easily installed in windows. They serve to help prevent a child from falling from the window when it is open.
How do window guards work?
Window guards screw into the sides of the window frame. They need to be screwed securely into the window frame because gurads that are simply spring-loaded can be easily dislodged by a child.
Window guards should also have bars no more than 4 inches (10 cm) apart to keep a child from getting between the bars and falling out the window.
Where can I buy window guards?
Window guards are available at hardware stores and home maintenance and repair stores (such as, for example, Home Depot). The window guards come in different sizes for various size windows. They adjust for width. Guards must now meet requirements for spacing and strength and those that allow for escape in case of emergencies must be difficult for very young children to open.
Window guards generally cost between $10 and $30.
What about window stops?
Window stops are also very useful as a safety device. Some new windows today come with window stops already installed to prevent the windows from opening more than 4 inches (10 cm). (That's the maximum distance permitted between the bars in a window guard.) If your windows don't already have stops, you can easily add them to the window frame.
Where can I get window guards?
Window stops are generally available at the same stores as window guards; hardware stores, Home Depot-type stores, etc.
Window stops generally cost about $2.
What are the new guidelines for buying and maintaining window guards?
The CPSC issued the following guidelines to assist you in the purchase and maintenance of window guards:
Do you have a particular brand you recommend?
No. Window guards come in different configurations. You should compare features to determine which guards best suit your needs.
Where can I get more information about buying window guards?
You can call the following companies for more information about purchasing window guards:
John Sterling Corporation
LL Building Products
Automatic Specialties
Where can I see a recommended type of window guard?
You can see photographs of a recommended type of window guard and also view a video clip about window guards on the CPSC site at http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml00/00126.html

LEESVILLE, La. (KALB News Channel 5) - Veterans Day is a meaningful day for all of America. In military communities like Leesville, it is especially significant.
"Veterans Day here for the town of Leesville is very significant. We focus on our community and we really embrace our veterans here in our parish in our town--hometown. So it's something we want to do and remember," said Mike Long, former president of the Vietnam Combat Veterans.
It's an opportunity to honor those who gave their lives to serve and protect our nation.
"Memorialize those individuals that have fallen to give us the freedoms that we need and we deserve here the United States, as well as an attempt to recognize those that are still serving to keep us free," said Rick Bulcak, commander of VFW 3106.
Those participating say the event helps bring the community closer together.
"Number one, unifies the city, number two, honors our veterans, number three I think it makes a connection with Fort Polk--our soldiers at Fort Polk and the community of Leesville so I think those three are the connection and the significance for the City of Leesville," said Army Chaplain Jesus Perez.

Back in 2007, Lamborghini released a special edition Gallardo at the Paris Motor Show. Limited to only 185 units, these Gallardos were given the name "Nera" and were each powered by the same V10 engine of the standard Gallardo with an output of 550 horsepower.
Since then, these cars have been dispersed all over the world to their owners and just like their name, they seem to have vanished into the night without even a trace of their shadows.
It took a little over three years, but we've just gotten word that one of these black knights from Lamborghini has resurfaced in the hands of no less than Underground Racing. Over the past few months, the US-based aftermarket tuning company worked tirelessly on upping the proverbial ante on the Gallardo Nera's powertrain, determined to give the dark supercar a 1,000 horsepower belly, capable of thwarting any and all enemies that gets in its way.
Details are still limited at this point, but Underground Racing saw fit to release a little teaser video of the Gallardo Nera on a drag strip, including a small snippet of its incredible acceleration off the starting block.
Given that it's a teaser video, Underground Racing preferred to keep the video short to make us beg and plead for more. It seems to be working, though, because we can't wait to find out more on what these boys did to one of the most exclusive and elusive Gallardos on the planet.

Are home remedies effective for a bladder infection?
Cranberry products have been known to prevent bladder infections to some degree, although it is not advised to use them in lieu of antibiotics for treating an infection.
Adhering to the prescribed antibiotic regimen and staying well hydrated are essential components of home remedy for bladder infection.
How is a bladder infection during pregnancy treated?
In pregnant women, bladder infection can be complicated. Sometimes the presence of bacteria without obvious signs of infection in pregnant patients could be harmful and may lead to severe infections and the pregnancy can be compromised. The choice of antibiotics during pregnancy may be different for bladder infection during pregnancy due to potential harm to the fetus and thus, careful evaluation by a physician is very important to start the correct therapy promptly.
What are potential complications of a bladder infection?
Complications of a bladder infection can occur if it is not appropriately diagnosed or treated. Untreated or poorly treated bladder infection can ascend the urinary system and lead to kidney infection, pyelonephritis, and sepsis (infection spread into the blood).
Can bladder infections be prevented?
Cranberry products (whole cranberries, cranberry juice, cranberry pills) and vitamin C are current natural remedies known to at least prevent bladder infection.
Proper female hygiene (for example, wiping from front to back) can prevent or reduce simple bladder infections in females. Hygienic use of bath tubs and douches can possibly reduce the risk of bladder infections.
In individuals with Foley catheters, appropriate Foley catheter care and frequent changing of the catheter (guided by the prescribing physician) are important methods to avoid frequent urine infection. These patients are at higher risk for frequent and chronic (long-term) bladder infection and sometimes their doctor may place them on preventive bladder infection antibiotics despite the lack of signs or symptoms of an infection.
Sexual intercourse is another potential risk factor for bladder infection. Thus, it may be advisable to empty the bladder (urinate) after sexual activity, draining bacteria that could have entered the bladder. This is not completely supported by available clinical data and is not recommended by some experts.
Preventive use of antibiotics may also have a role in preventing bladder infections. In some female patients with frequent bladder infections (more than 3 to 4 times per year) or with symptoms of bladder infection present after sexual intercourse, a short course of antibiotics can be taken as a preventive measure. This method needs to be recommended by the treating doctor and the strategy needs to be outlined for patients who are deemed reliable.
Preventive antibiotics are also sometimes recommended in patients undergoing invasive urologic procedures (cystoscopy, prostate biopsy, bladder biopsy). Occasionally, urinalysis and/or urine culture may be ordered before the procedure and if an infection is suggested, then antibiotics are prescribed to prevent an infection after the procedure.

Len says last night was the best night of dancing they've ever seen. Rulebreakers Shawn and Derek get the encore. Because this show is more about ratings than competitive dance authenticity.
Never kid yourself about that.
Watching from the balcony last night, Emmitt observes of Melissa and Tony, "They nailed that [expletive deleted]." Emmitt's talkative because he also calls out to Gilles as he's hanging from the flying apparatus, saying he'd be too scared to do that. Gilles says he realized after he was hoisted up that his fly was open.
Kirstie and Maks are in jeopardy, but Emmitt and Cheryl, Gilles and Peta, and Melissa and Tony are safe.
Frankie Moreno, who's a Vegas crooner/piano player in the old-school tradition, is there to perform while Lacey Schwimmer (former "DWTS" pro) and Kyle Massey (former contestant) dance a jive. They're later joined by members of the "DWTS" troupe. I gotta say, I first saw Lacey in her season of "So You Think You Can Dance" and I really, really miss her being a brunette.
Shawn and Derek and Apolo and Karina are safe. Drew and Anna are in jeopardy. Kelly and Val are safe.
Between Kirstie and Maks and Drew and Anna, the couple going home is Drew and Anna. First past season champion down!
All the judges agree last night was really, really good. The dance styles that the couples will be picking for each other are revealed and they are:
• Bolero
• Bollywood
• Broadway
• Charleston
• Contemporary
• Disco
• Hip-Hop
• Jitterbug
• Mambo
• Rock 'n' Roll
This is getting pretty far away from ballroom. But since this last season of "So You Think You Can Dance" was weirdly unfulfilling, I'll take it.
The order of choosing will go like this: last place score picks for first place couple. Next to last couple picks for second place couple, and so on and so forth. With Emmitt and Apolo tied, they drew numbers. Each couple has ten seconds to confer and pick the dance for the other couple.

Sen. Deb Fischer and Democrat North Dakota Sen. Heidi Heitkamp have released a letter written to U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry asking him to expedite approval for the Keystone XL Pipeline.
Currently the project is waiting for the president's approval before proceeding.
In their letter, the senators say that after nearly five years, updated plans for the project have passed through the most rigorous environmental and safety tests in history. They add that now is the time to move forward with the project.
my time in the Nebraska Legislature, I have worked in a bipartisan manner to
ensure a fair process for consideration of this critical energy infrastructure
project," said Fischer. "Through this exhaustive review, the environmental integrity and
economic benefits of the pipeline have been clearly demonstrated. We're done
with studies, let's start building."
In January, Gov. Heineman approved the pipeline project following review of the state environmental report. He previously said about the construction of the pipeline in Nebraska, "I knew at the end of the day you're going to make some people happy and some people unhappy but you have to make a decision."
The State Department also produced an environmental impact report. In the draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement, the pipeline project was projected to have a minimal environmental impact along the proposed route.
Despite the separate report findings, several Nebraskans are still opposed to the pipeline, citing environmental risks for the Ogallala Aquifer as well as landowners that will be affected by the pipeline's construction. They are now clinging to the hope that President Obama will deny the proposal.

Three recruitment dates for filling positions at Dubai's foremost cultural event
The Dubai International Film Festival today announced the dates for its annual volunteer recruitment drive, and welcomed cinema lovers to take advantage of the opportunity to meet like-minded people and be part of an important, glamorous and interesting international event.
DIFF Managing Director Shivani Pandya commented: "The Volunteer program is a key and integral part of DIFF. We have volunteers representing all age groups and nationalities. Their hard work and commitment result in the creation of a great cultural event. They make DIFF feel like a community event, and we could not run the festival without them."
Recruitment will take place on three dates: On Monday November 10th recruitment is open to Emirati national volunteers at the Knowledge Village Auditorium at 18:00.On November 16 and 23 at 18:30 at the same location, recruitment will be open to the non-national general public. Those interested must RSVP their attendance dates by sending an email to: firstname.lastname@example.com
Bob McCarthy, Manager of the DIFF Volunteer Department, said: "Every year volunteers tell us that they have been very satisfied with the whole volunteer experience, from the training, knowledge and guidance they received to participating in the actual event. They enjoyed it so much that many have pursued jobs at the festival—in fact in 2007 41 volunteers from the previous year were hired as staff. With the wide variety of nationalities participating, it truly is an experience that bridges cultures and forges many new and lasting friendships. We're looking for friendly volunteers who like working with the public to do a variety of tasks before and during the festival."
DIFF's landmark fifth edition will run from December 11 to 18, 2008.

David Saur is in his second season as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Stetson University.
In Saur's first season with the program, Stetson set school-records for overall wins (27), conference wins (16) and longest winning streak (16). The Hatters also posted their first-ever NCAA postseason win, a 70-63 victory over Miami in the first round of the WNIT.
Saur's first recruiting class with the Hatters saw him put together the #69 Recruiting Class in the country (first in the Atlantic Sun), according to the All-Star Girl's Report.
In addition to his recruiting duties, Saur mentored the post players, including A-Sun Freshman of the Year Amber Porter and first team all-conference performers Sasha Sims and Porter. Sims and Porter ranked no. 1 and no. 2 on the team in scoring and blocked shots. Porter posted the highest single-season blocks total in school history (129) and the fifth highest blocks total for a freshman in NCAA history.
Saur previously served in a similar position at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP), where in 2012-13 he helped lead the Hawks to a 23-9 record, an appearance in the NCAA Tournament, and a #12 national ranking. As the posts coach he mentored forward Sarah Pastorek, an honorable mention All-American performer, and forward Lindsay Stamp, an NCAA Tournament Atlantic Region all-tournament team selection. As the recruiting coordinator he helped secure a Division I transfer prior to the start of the 2012-13 season. He was also involved with game planning, scouting, team travel and fundraising.
Saur also served as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at California University of Pennsylvania in 2011-12. While there he secured commitments from players in Maryland and Pennsylvania while also acquiring a pledge from a Division I transfer. As the guards coach he mentored first-team all-conference selections Danielle Luckett and Amy Johns. He was also involved with game planning, scouting and team travel.
Saur previously served on the coaching staffs of both the men's and women's basketball programs at his alma mater, Thiel. While with the Tomcats, Saur was involved in all aspects of both programs, including on-court coaching, game preparation, preseason workouts, scouting, recruiting and daily operations. During the 2010-11 season, the Thiel men's program recorded a school-record 20 wins and went undefeated in conference play for the first time ever.
Saur has also conducted several skill development workouts, including a four-year stint with Washington Wizards assistant coach Joe Connelly. He has worked with several current and former NBA players, including Rudy Gay (Memphis Grizzlies), Donte Greene (Sacramento Kings), Sam Young (Philadelphia 76ers), and DaJuan Summers (New Orleans Hornets).
A native of Sykesville, Md., Saur graduated from Laurinburg Prep in Laurinburg, N.C., in 2007. While at Laurinburg, he averaged nearly 15 points per game and helped lead the Tigers to a top-15 finish in the USA Today prep school rankings.
Saur earned his Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Thiel in 2011 and his Master's Degree in Sport Management from Cal in 2012.

After the New England Patriots were upended by the Arizona Cardinals in Week Two, there is a new team on top of the TSN.ca NFL Power Rankings.
The Houston Texans, who have cruised through the first two weeks, take over top spot, just ahead of the San Francisco 49ers.
Perhaps a surprising 2-0, the Philadelphia Eagles surged up from 12 to six after beating Baltimore, while the San Diego Chargers (also 2-0), Carolina Panthers and the aforementioned Cardinals were among the big risers this week.
Heading the other way, the Tennessee Titans inability to run the ball drops them from 21 all the way down to 31, while the New Orleans Saints' inability to defend has them moving from 10 to 15.
It's still very early in the season, so the rankings have more fluctuations than they will once teams have six, eight or ten games under their belt, but right now, there are 20 teams with a 1-1 record, so it's going to take some time to create tiers of separation.

16. Scariest Social Commentary: Brain Damage (1988)
A metaphor for drug addiction is presented in the form of a penis-shaped, brain-eating blob named Aylmer that will give you a feeling of euphoria in exchange for finding him victims. Disclaimer: You don't want Aylmer around if you're about to receive a blow job.
17. Scariest Oral Extraction: The Last House on the Left (1972)
Wince alert! In Wes Craven's debut, a woman bites off a rapist's penis as revenge for brutally assaulting her daughter. It's just one of the ultra-violent scenes that got this ugly exploitation flick banned for some time overseas.
18. Scariest Conspiracy Theories: Room 237 (2012)
In this doc obsessives of The Shining try to convince you that the movie's hidden message is about faking the Apollo moon landing, or that it's a metaphor for Native American oppression. Listen to these nutjobs for too long and you may pull a "Here's Johnny!"
19. Scariest Question: Basket Case (1982)
When Duane shows up to a gritty N.Y.C. hotel holding a wicker basket, it's only a matter of time before someone looks inside. Surprise! It's his blob of a Siamese twin brother, Belial, who has a habit of mauling his nosy victims into mangled corpses. Not the best picnic companion.
20. Scariest Fictional Episode of Dateline: The Poughkeepsie Tapes (2007)
The documentary-style film follows detectives as they try to piece together the heinous crimes depicted on more than 800 videotapes they discover during a house raid.
21. Scariest Rejected Pitches for Martha Stewart Living's Crafts Issue: Pieces (1982)
Before Buffalo Bill was wearing his woman suit, there was Timmy and his jigsaw puzzle made of sawed-off women's body parts.
22. Scariest First Date: The Audition (1999)
A widower auditions prospective wives and finds a timid ex-ballerina. But once she starts removing his limbs, he realizes she may not be his dream girl after all. Next time, try Match.com?
23. Scariest Pregnancy Scare: Inside (2007)
This French home-invasion thriller about a lady who is terrorized by a scissors-wielding woman desperate to steal her unborn baby will make you squirm more than sitting through What to Expect When You're Expecting.
24. Scariest Accidental Rental: Nekromantik (1987)
Maybe you thought your date would be impressed when you rented what you presumed was an artsy German love story…and it kind of is, except that one of the figures in the love triangle is a corpse.
25. Scariest Torture Scenes: Ichi the Killer (2001)
This Japanese movie contains enough torment and agony in the form of brutal beatings, skewers, and nipple clamps to make the Saw traps look like a La-Z-Boy.
26. Scariest '90s Cleavage: I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)
The heaving bosoms of Jennifer Love Hewitt and Sarah Michelle Gellar earned this slasher hit the nickname I Know What Your Breasts Did Last Summer, which of course only made us want to see it more. Even spookier than the movie's meat-hook-wielding killer? The eerie demise of costar Freddie Prinze Jr.'s career.
27. Scariest Opening Scene: Scream (1996)
In 12 minutes a random phone call about scary movies leaves Drew Barrymore hanging by her entrails. This is why we never answer blocked calls.
28. Scariest Serial Killer: Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986)
Loosely based on real-life murderer Henry Lee Lucas, this movie is even more disturbing than seeing Charlize Theron uglified in Monster.
29. Scariest Movie You Expected to Be Crap: Insidious (2011)
It has all the clichés of creepy kids, paranormal activity, and eerie voices, but those elements actually come together in one of the jumpiest horror flicks of the past few years.
30. Scariest Argument for Using a Pen Name: Misery (1990)
It's not just because we get insecure when you write us hurtful letters. But why have fans if they're just going to take a sledgehammer to your ankles to hold you hostage?

News - Afghanistan
Members of the Taliban leadership council, known as Quetta Shura, have reportedly reviewing Afghan peace process days after an Afghan delegation convinced Pakistani government to release senior Taliban officials as a confidence-building measure to bring Taliban to the negotiation table.
A member of the Shura, who didn't want to be named, has told Pakistani daily, The Nation, that the Taliban leadership council has welcomed new efforts by the Afghan and Pakistani governments.
President Hamid Karzai sent a delegation of High Peace Council members, led by Chairman Salahuddin Rabbani, to Islamabad to seek Pakistani officials support for the peace process. Pakistani government released eight ex-Taliban officials, including Taliban justice minister Noorudin Toorabi.
An ex-Taliban leader, Mohammad Akbar Agha, who lives in Kabul, said it would be effective if the Quetta Shura has changed its view regarding the peace process.
"If the comments by the Shura member represents the perspective of the whole council, it would be effectual for peace talks," Mr Agha told TOLOnews.
Afghan High Peace Council has welcomed the comments by the Taliban council.
The Afghan ambassador to Islamabad, Mohammad Omar Daudzai, earlier said that the Pakistani government has agreed to a gradual release of all Taliban prisoners in Pakistan.
Islamabad's role is considered as key to bring the Taliban to the negotiation table.

Invesco Ltd. Stock Buy Recommendation Reiterated (IVZ)
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 5.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 10.4%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
- Investors have apparently begun to recognize positive factors similar to those we have mentioned in this report, including earnings growth. This has helped drive up the company's shares by a sharp 41.92% over the past year, a rise that has exceeded that of the S&P 500 Index. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, IVZ should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Capital Markets industry average. The net income increased by 14.6% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from $193.90 million to $222.20 million.
- INVESCO LTD has improved earnings per share by 13.9% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, INVESCO LTD reported lower earnings of $1.50 versus $1.57 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.16 versus $1.50).
- The gross profit margin for INVESCO LTD is currently lower than what is desirable, coming in at 26.30%. Regardless of IVZ's low profit margin, it has managed to increase from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, IVZ's net profit margin of 19.46% compares favorably to the industry average.

A word from Saffire
Nestled within The Factory at Franklin, the chefs at Saffire begin stoking the coals early in the day, well before any guests ever arrive. These Tennessee Hickory coals radiate from within the hand-built smoker and cast iron grill of Saffire's exposed kitchen.Continued
Locally grown produce and indigenous flavors combine with exotic ingredients, deliciously tender meats and a phenomenal array of wines and libations to create a menu that is uniquely Saffire. A welcoming staff further distinguishes your experience at Saffire from anywhere else around.
Locally and nationally acclaimed, Saffire is a neighborhood restaurant with a big city feel.

- Great food and excellent servicegolfchk15Dined on 9/26/2014We took a chance taking 2 friends as we hadn't been here. We had a great time. One friend eats gluten free and our waiter Patrick was quite helpful making sure she knew what to order. I had the pit-smoked prime rib and loved the flavor. Leftovers were great with eggs the next morning.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Casual Gourmet DiningSophieZoDined on 9/20/2014The atmosphere is rustic and casual, but the dining is gourmet. The menu has excellent choices and the dishes we chose were nicely prepared and tasty. The noise level was a bit loud as the restaurant was pretty full, but the live music likely contributed to that. The live music was very good. The waiter we had was a bit slow, but he was knowledgeable of the food and drinks they have. Overall, we had a great experience.Special Features:

- Sexy Saffire in Fabulous FranklinbitesforbridgitDined on 9/12/2014I love Saffire. My mom, sister, and I had lunch there while shopping at The Factory. The service was exceptional. Please have the burger, because it'll be one of the best you've ever eaten, but you'll love all the other fresh and healthy choices on the menu, too. The crowd was very diverse, from couples to construction workers, and the noise level was just right (didn't have to yell to be heard, nor did we have to whisper). Saffire is definitely one of my new favorites.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/11/2014Great place to eat before Studio Tenn Performance. Maybe offer a discount to theatre goers.Special Features:
- Do Not Waste Your TimeHarshCriticDined on 9/9/2014This restaurant was terrible. I've been to this restaurant several times since they opened several years ago and they have consistently gotten worse. The service was great, but the food was awful. The $38 filet of beef I ordered was tough and didn't even look like a filet. I suspect it was sirloin. My mom had the prime rib and was extremely disappointed. For the same amount of money, I recommend going to The Southern in downtown Nashville which is owned by the same person as Saffire. It's quite surprising that both restaurants are owned by the same person and one is so much worse than the other.Special Features:
- Worth the visit...LampasasBadgerDined on 9/9/2014Tried the bam-bam shrimp for starters and it was excellent. My entree was the chicken fried chicken and it was outstanding. For dessert of finished with a cup of coffee and the white chocolate orange bread putting. It, too, was very pleasing. The next time I am in Nashville, I will pop down to Franklin to partake in all things Saffire. Highly, highly recommend you visit too.

- Best meal I have had in a long timedstone8411Dined on 9/5/2014Arrived late for our reservation because of weather related accidents but the staff was very accommodating. I had the salmon, my wife had the gumbo and fried oysters. Both of our meals were excellent. The other couple had a filet and chicken and thoroughly enjoyed their meals also. We also our deserts! Will definitely be going back soon!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just Right!Ketchup63Dined on 8/31/2014We took our family to eat here for Sunday lunch after church. The atmosphere was relaxing and inviting, service was friendly and attentive, and the food was great! Unique and good portions without being too much. I think it's always good when you leave wanting more... I'm sure we'll be back when we are in the area again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Had a great evening at SaffiredfreaseDined on 8/30/2014My wife and I went out for a date night to Saffire. The place has a great atmosphere. The food was wonderful and our server was exceptional.

- ZucchiniblumeDined on 8/29/2014The lobster empanadas were very good and the food was good but not excellent. However we did get a very nice waiter and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Great decoration and it´s a great place to people watch. Had a cup of coffee to end our meal but it was rather weak ... maybe they should get an espresso machine?Special Features:
- Great find in a smaller townOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/26/2014I'm a recent transplant from Atlanta to the Franklin area, and used to the great southern food scene in the ATL. This was a great find. I really enjoyed the food, the wine list is good, and the service was great. The restaurant is beautiful, and the location is great for a quiet dinner since all the shopping locations in The Factory close in the evening.Special Features:
- Pleasant surpriseJPinTNVIPDined on 8/24/2014The food was novel, but not too "out there". Definitely pleased with the menu choices during Restaurant Week and even more so with the service!Special Features:

- Shrimp Appetizers are Great !!!!OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/23/2014The bang bang shrimp was WONDERFUL !!!!! We went for our anniversary. Scheduled reservation online. Was immediately shown to our table. No for kids in my opinion. Great date spot. Prices not too bad. Drinks reasonable and not watered down.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fly me to Saffire'sSkyflierDined on 8/23/2014This is truly a gem. The ambience of the whole antique building is very charming, and the restaurant is in the same genre. Unbeknownst to us, is was restaurant week (my flying parter & I are from Los Angeles). First, kudos to our waiter Brad, who was as professional as we have seen. We both ordered the same dishes (Ribbon Salad & Shrimp & Grits) and were beyond impressed. The 2 different rolls were both good, but the buttermilk roll with chives was exceptional! Can't wait to go back and bring my family.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ASmithDined on 8/20/2014We had a great time. The restaurant was great. We loved every part of the experience. The food was some of the best I've had in Nashville. The shrimp and grits were fabulous. The grits were creamy and the shrimp was wonderful. The chicken fried chicken was fried well and the mac and cheese was also great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Always wonderful!JayLarimoreDined on 8/17/2014Saffire is a local place that always surprises and pleases. This was our first-time Sunday Brunch. The main room is bright and engaging, service was outstanding, loved the hint of barbeque smoke in the air. My companion and I both had an old-time favorite, Eggs Benedict, which Saffire offers with different twists. We had the version featuring a buttermilk biscuit, applewood bacon, white gravy and cheesy grits on the side - delicious! Coupled with a glass of the house Chardonnay, it was an outstanding meal at a moderate price.Special Features:
- Our "go to" place.OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/16/2014We have dined at Saffire many times since they opened and have rarely had a complaint. The food is always delicious. This last visit was exceptional! Their fish (corvina) & grits, hickory smoked filet & avocado, bacon cheeseburger were SO good! And their French fries? Crispy & hot. Perfection. Service was great! The only complaint we had was that it was very loud. The music was great, but we had trouble hearing our server & ourselves. We can understand it if it was later in the evening, but we were there at 6:15... We will definitely be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OutstandingtheLedgerDined on 8/16/2014I have eaten here twice for dinner and brought guests this last time and we were not disappointed. The wait staff were just great and were sensitive when to interrupt. The food was excellent and full of flavor. The filet was done right - again.Special Features:

- First but not last visit!gdgrlangelDined on 8/7/2014Visited Saffire for lunch for the first time this week and it was much more than I expected. The deviled eggs were divine. I think I could have eaten the whole order by myself! My entrée was the chicken fried chicken with country ham gravy over mac and cheese. It was wonderful. I am not always fond of gravy but this was very tasty! The buttermilk pie was a great ending!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding ExperienceNashtndinerDined on 8/2/2014I really enjoyed my first time at Saffire restaurant. Great food and service. Specialty cocktails were great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- NoisyOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/2/2014Too loud. Food is good service fine but my wife will not return because of the noise level
- Great food - odd surroundings!FoodloverDined on 8/2/2014We booked this based on the reviews found online. Wasn't quite sure what to expect when it came to the restaurant itself. It's in an old converted factory... which isn't all that converted! It has the old original windows and pipes everywhere. It was certainly unique! I can't say i like the vintage look when it comes to a restaurant, but the food was outstanding! Three of us had an appetizer, mains and shared a dessert. Really nice traditional southern food, very well cooked. The waiter was great, too. It was very busy (but it was a Saturday night) and quite noisy, lots of people at the bar, etc. I'd definitely come again for the food, wish the surroundings were a bit more pleasant, though. And it was pricey but worth the cost, I think.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great For Special NightLocalGuyDined on 8/1/2014Been there several times and always enjoyed it. Great food and adult atmosphere. Walked right to our table with a reservation. We hadn't had a "date night" in ages so this was a good way to start. This isn't a cheap place and you can spend some money without trying too hard but it's worth it. We aren't big eaters and my wife had a single glass of wine and we dropped $85. No complaints.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Time with friendsOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/26/2014Excellent experience. Easy reservation, quick seating, choice menu and great service. This is a fun location offering relaxed atmosphere with upscale menu items. Noise levels are low enough for easy conversation but high enough to hear everyone enjoying themselves. Great bar seating for singles or couples with plenty of table seating for larger groups – highly recommendedSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- food was greatbrentTNDined on 7/26/2014It's not a place for a romantic date night. The noise is high but it's cozy. Food was wonderful. I would give it $$$ for price.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good FoodLuisDined on 7/23/2014Great place to take mi family for dinner, small menu but with great option, big size portions but evertone finished up because it was so goodSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great food & service, but NOISY!maestromomDined on 7/15/2014We chose Saffire to treat out of town family to dinner for 2 reasons: Great food, and outdoor dining. Sadly, we discovered upon our arrival that patio dining is no longer available. The inside of the restaurant was VERY noisy, but the service and food were perfect.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Will be back ...TommyDined on 7/12/2014A very unique space, as it was once part of a factory you have exposed brick air conditioning pipes all really give it a factory feel, the staff works well together and is very knowledgeable of the menu and the product's and ingredients that go into the dishesSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for Out of TownerskarengDined on 7/12/2014This is a great place to take out of town guest. Its funky decor and local southern favorite foods make it fun. I especially like their grits. Really creamy and full of flavor. Top that with fish or shrimp and they throw in some collards for texture and its pure heaven. The sweet sauce on top was good but I got tired of it before I finished my dish. Still I'd recommend it. The service was great, the kitchen pushed our food out while its piping hot and all at once. My guest enjoy it and strolling around the historic Factory,Special Features:
- dak13Dined on 7/11/2014We have dined at Saffire several times since moving to the area. One of the reasons for selecting them has been the onion rings. They have taken the onion rings off the menu, the waitress said we were among at least five other customers to mention the onion rings so I hope Saffire will reconsider and put them back on the menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

First on today's agenda is West Liberty, Iowa, to find the graves of Frank and Retta (Gladfelter) Lair. Frank was the much younger brother of my gr-gr grandmother, Nettie Belle Lair of Princeville, Peoria county, Illinois, being 16 years younger than Nettie. Frank and Nettie were two of the nine children of Lawson Fuller Lair and his wife, Margaret Nickeson, who farmed just outside of Princeville. As a young man, Frank spent some time living with Nettie and her husband, Tom Graves, before marrying Retta Gladfelter in 1901. Frank and Retta moved to a Muscatine county, Iowa, in 1907, and there lived on several different farms before moving into West Liberty about 1919. His bride, Retta, was the daughter of Frederick and Julia (Bane) Gladfelter, and born in 1882, also in Princeville. They lived out the remainder of their lives in West Liberty, having no children. Frank died in 1945, at the age of 67, and Retta in 1959 at the age of 77.
We learn our lessons fairly easily - this time we called ahead and checked with the city clerk, who told us exactly where the graves were located, and exactly where Oakridge cemetery could be found -
and we located their former home...
Misson #2 Complete. On to Mission #3, and The Land of Lincoln!

I'm so grateful for fire Chief Steve Hall and the West Stanislaus Fire Protection District's new "going to birthday parties" program. There is a little 7-year-old boy who has epilepsy (my great-grandson) who will remember his seventh birthday for the rest of his life. I'm so thankful for the two volunteers who brought the fire truck to his birthday party. The two firemen were kind, respectful and compassionate. Thank you. God bless you all.
