It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making.

Ask the Car Insurance Expert
Do I really need uninsured motorist insurance if I carry collision insurance for my vehicle?
Uninsured motorist (UM) is one of the most misunderstood types of car insurance coverage. Standard UM insurance doesn't cover damage to your car. Instead, it pays the medical expenses for you and your passengers if you're injured in a car accident caused by an uninsured driver, and in some states it pays out when you're injured by a hit-and-run driver.
[Let Insure.com help you find affordable car insurance now.]
Underinsured motorist (UIM) kicks in if the driver at fault has liability coverage but not enough to pay all your medical bills.
You might be thinking of uninsured motorist property-damage coverage (UMPD), which pays to repair your car if an uninsured driver causes an accident. It's separate coverage from UM/UIM. Some states require you to purchase UM/UIM and UMPD, while others make the coverages optional. Also, some states require insurance companies to offer coverage but let you reject it by signing a statement. In some other states, UMPD isn't even available.
UMPD kicks in only if the uninsured driver is at fault for the accident; it doesn't pay out if you cause the accident. You don't need the coverage if you have collision insurance, which covers damage to your vehicle from a traffic accident, whether you're at fault or you're struck by an uninsured motorist. However, remember that you must pay a deductible for collision coverage. UMPD has no deductible.

Baltimore County's decision to cut nearly 200 teaching positions last year has had far-reaching consequences in high schools, where hundreds of classes have been dropped from the rolls, leaving many more students packed into classrooms.
At Dulaney High School, for example, a chemistry teacher with a class of 34 said his students must take turns doing lab experiments because the stations are too small to accommodate more than three or four at a time. A journalism teacher doesn't have enough computers for each of her budding writers, so she sends part of the class to the library to do the work. And a math teacher has 168 students in her five classes, 30 or 40 more than would be normal.
Parents and teachers worry that the change, triggered by a cost-cutting move, threatens to undermine the quality of students' education. They say the increase in class size has made it more difficult for students to get individual attention and to participate in discussions.
"A teacher cannot realistically give 30-plus students specialized attention. How long before the bubble bursts? How many students are falling through the cracks? It's a shame that many students may not be reaching their full potentials," said Laura Mullen, a member of the Area Education Advisory Council, a group that gives the school board community input.
An analysis of class size data by The Baltimore Sun shows high schools dropped about 700 of their 9,200 classes. Nineteen were Advanced Placement classes, even though school administrators had pledged to the school board that they would not be cut at all.
Superintendent Joe A. Hairston said that fewer classes were offered this year because enrollment dropped in high schools and that some small classes, including AP, were offered online. The number of students dropped by about 500 to 30,664, according to school data.
The analysis also showed that while nearly all of the 26 high schools lost teaching positions, officials protected the lowest-performing high schools, where smaller classes were deemed important for struggling students. But that meant the best and brightest students at some of the county's star high schools have the largest classes.
About one-third of all classes at Dulaney, Towson and Pikesville have 30 or more students — a level that is used as a cap in some states; at Hereford, more than a quarter of classes are that big. All four schools are high-performing.
Donald Peccia, the head of human resources for county schools, said he was not aware of the number of classes with 30 or more students. "Thirty or more in a third of the classes is too many," he said after looking at the Sun analysis. He said the school system should take a closer look at the differences in some schools, adding, "That is certainly going to require more analysis."
It isn't just the physical education, art and music classes that have grown beyond 30 students; many core academic classes are large as well. At Dulaney, the average English class size went from 24 to 28; at Pikesville, the average biology class size has gone from 25 to 28.
Teachers at Dulaney say the large classes make it more difficult to get to know their students and give them individual attention.
"It is almost as if I am teaching an extra class," said American government teacher Sean Bowmaster, who says he has tried to be diligent about giving students quick feedback when they turn in assignments.
Students at Pikesville said they are not learning as much in large classes because the teachers spend more time disciplining students.
"It is kind of hard to learn," said Pikesville senior Ryan Kelly. "You can't really get the personal attention,"
Student-teacher ratio raised
Hairston decided to reduce the teaching staff as a way to save $12 million in the budget year that began July 1. The cuts were necessary, he said, because he had agreed to give all school system employees step increases, and other costs were growing.
Hairston cut 5 percent in school and administrative budgets, and reduced 196 teaching positions through attrition at high schools. Only one administrative position was eliminated.
Legislators wrote letters to the school board and Hairston, asking them to protect the classroom and make cuts elsewhere. Towson and Carver students rallied in front of the Towson courthouse, and Lansdowne parents expressed worry about the teachers they would lose.
Nevertheless, hundreds of high school teachers were redistributed into positions that became vacant over the summer in middle schools and elsewhere through the system.

It's the end of the road for the Galesburg Silver Streaks girls basketball team tonight, as they'll play their regular season finale at United Township. The Streaks enter the game with a record of 16-13 overall, and 4-5 in Western Big 6 Conference play.
Local Sports 2/12/14
Most of the area girls regional basketball tournaments are off tonight ahead of tomorrow's championship games, but there is one location where the semifinals are yet to be played. That's at Kewanee Wethersfield, where the Lady Spartans of Ridgewood will play Stark County. The two teams have split a pair of games in recent weeks, and tonight's winner will likely get a shot at top-rated Annawan in the championship.
The Galesburg girls have one more practice ahead of tomorrow night's regular season finale, when they travel to East Moline to play the United Township Panthers. The girls will be trying to even their Western Big 6 record at 5-5, and will then turn their attention to next week's regional tournament game with Alleman.
After a full schedule of boys basketball games around the area last night, all we have tonight are a few make-up games. One of those has Knoxville traveling to South Fulton. The Blue Bullets are coming off of last nights' 65-62 win over Farmington. Also tonight, Ridgewood will play at West Prairie. The Spartans topped Stark County last evening 43-41.
The Galesburg freshmen boys will play Dunlap tonight at 6:30 at Thiel Gym. The game was originally scheduled for tomorrow night, but has been moved up.
Local boxing coach Carlos Duncan reports that the long wait is over for Galesburg middleweight George Carter, Jr. Carter has signed a four-year professional contract with Chicago Fight Clubs, which will provide him with training expenses and a minimum of three fights per year. Duncan reports that the deal also should allow Carter to get quality sparring partners, and if he does well, to get ranked. The 27-year-old Carter is undefeated so far in his professional career.

NEW ORLEANS (WDRB) -- For two weeks, I've had the same column ready to go on the University of Louisville women's basketball team.Its premise is simple: What a tough loss in (insert NCAA Tournament round here), but what a great game, what great effort and tenacity. The team won't be defined by (insert loss here), but by all it accomplished despite major injuries and adversity every step of the way.It's a great column. I may not ever get to write it. The Cardinals keep winning.And now, get this. They're going to the NCAA Championship game. They outscored California 7-0 in the final 1:28 to stun the Golden Bear 64-57.Somehow, the Cardinals handled a California team that seemed to get every rebound and score whenever it wanted in the paint, a California team that had lost only three times all season. A Cal team that led by 10 points in the game.Let's just say it was a good weekend for Christian Academy graduates in the Final Four. One night after Tim Henderson hit two threes to spark the Louisville men to the national title game against Wichita State, former Christian Academy classmate Antonita Slaughter buried six three-pointers for all of her 18 points to lead the Cardinals to the title game.Buckle up, Louisville fans. You have two national championship games to watch this week. The men in Atlanta on Monday. The women in New Orleans on Tuesday. The commute continues. More to come after postgame interviews.Copyright 2013 WDRB News. All Rights Reserved.

911 recordings from Sandy Hook shooting to be released
The 911 recordings from the shooting that killed 20 children last December at Sandy Hook Elementary School will be released to the public on Wednesday afternoon, lawyers representing the Connecticut town of Newtown said.
Last December 14, a 20-year-old Newtown resident unleashed a rampage at the school, shooting dead the children and six adults before turning a gun on himself, in one of the worst mass shootings in U.S. history.
The audio-enhanced recordings of seven calls placed from inside the elementary school after the shooter, Adam Lanza, shot his way into the school go on for a total of about 25 minutes.
Newtown had at first fought the release of the recordings in defiance of Connecticut's Freedom of Information Commission. But after a Connecticut judge ruled against the town late last month, local officials relented.
Newtown First Selectman Pat Llodra recently said the tapes should be released in full in order to prevent partial leaks of the recordings.
Last week, State's Attorney Stephen Sedensky released a report on the Newtown massacre that concluded Lanza had acted alone, but that his motivation for the attack "may never be answered."

'East-west' fundraisers for Isaac to include ice show, yard sale
Citizen Staff Reports 04/26/12
Friends and family of one-year-old Isaac Corbett ("New Life for Joy Boy," 3/15/12 Citizen) will hold a fundraising blitz May 5 in Henrico that will include a yard sale at Rocketts Landing followed by an ice show at SkateNation Plus in Short Pump.
The yard sale at Rocketts Landing will take place from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. May 5 in the Cedar Works parking lot at the corner of Route 5 & Orleans Street. Organizers are looking for donated items to sell (donate by May 2; details below), as well as shoppers and buyers at the sale, which will benefit the Children's Organ Transplant Association (COTA), a national charity that helps children and young adults who need or have had a lifesaving transplant.
Although the Corbett family has lived in Durham, N.C. since October (while Isaac undergoes treatment at Duke University Medical Center) their home is in the Rocketts Landing community. Isaac was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder only days before his first birthday, and has undergone more than 60 x-rays, seven surgeries, chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant. The transplant is helping him to overcome Hurler Syndrome, a disorder that generally takes the lives of its victims at only five to six years of age without treatment. Isaac is doing well since his transplant, but he will need ongoing medical care throughout his life that is estimated to cost $60,000-$100,000.
The ice show, "Sk8 for Isaac," will be held from 5:15 to 6:30 p.m. May 5 at SkateNation Plus. The rink owners have generously donated ice time, so admission to the event is free, but tax-deductible donations to COTA are welcome.
Before Natalie Corbett became pregnant with Isaac, she skated for the rink's adult synchro team, the Twizzlers, under the direction of Coach Stephanie Meier. Coach Stephanie and other coaches attended the baby shower for Isaac, and she has helped organize the U.S. Figure Skating-sanctioned event with the help of the Richmond Figure Skating Club and SkateNation Plus. The ice show will also include a silent auction of several gift baskets.

Henricus Historical Park to host Publick Day Sept. 20
Citizen Staff Reports 09/15/2014
Henricus Historical Park will commemorate its anniversary during Publick Day, a signature annual event that celebrates the establishment of the second successful English settlement in the New World. In September 1611, Sir Thomas Dale, along with soldiers, tradesmen and farmers, ventured from Jamestown to create the Citie of Henricus. Leaders of Henricus developed the first English hospital, chartered the first college in North America, established tobacco as the first cash crop in Virginia, and created a place where Pocahontas lived and met John Rolfe.
Publick Day will take place Saturday, Sept. 20, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free and parking is $5 per vehicle. > Read more.

Friends and family are in mourning, after a teenager was killed in Harrisburg's first homicide of the year.
Hauson Baltimore-Greene, Jr., 18, was a senior at Steelton Highspire High School, where he played on the football and basketball teams.
Those who knew Greene said he was in many ways your typical teenager.
"He always cracked jokes. He had everybody laughing. He looked out for everybody no matter what. He's just real nice...a nice person," said Ta'Nea Washington, Greene's cousin.
"I mean he always had a good spirit. I could be down and he'd be like, 'keep your head up.' He never was a negative person," said Brien Hall, Greene's friend.
Greene's basketball coach, Tigh Savercool, said Greene was special.
"He couldn't find a ride so he just gets a taxi. That's committed. That's an adult decision that a high school kid makes leaving work how he's gonna get to practice instead of just trying to make an excuse he couldn't come and not come. He found a way. That's the type of kid he was," said Savercool.
Greene had big dreams of becoming a rap artist.
That dream came to an end around 10 p.m. Saturday. Police said Greene was on the porch of 30 North 16th Street when someone shot him. Greene was rushed to the hospital where he later died.
While investigators try to figure out who did it and why, those who knew Greene are trying to cope and are calling for an end to the violence in Harrisburg.
"They really need to stop because it's getting out of control. I don't wanna live in Harrisburg for real I'm ready to go. I don't want to be here," said Washington.
"I know we got a new mayor coming in, so I hope he's ready to take on the task of bringing this community together. There's a lot going on here. A cry for help. There's a lot of potential here," said Brian Carter, a friend of Greene's.
If we work together, we can save our children and stop the violence that is claiming far too many young lives," Mayor Eric Papenfuse said in a statement.
Papenfuse said he is trying to stop the violence by putting additional officers on the police force and starting a new community policing initiative.

[published: January 26, 2009]
Say It Plain
Elizabeth Alexander's inaugural poem has been criticized as "bureaucratic" and "too prosy" by a generally underwhelmed public. But this may say more about the public's appetite for soulfulness than it does about the merits of a remarkable work.
"You're not putting sugar on cake. You're building!"—William Carlos Williams
How do you ventriloquize a nation? Presidents are given the privilege to do so daily, as are, more peremptorily, talk show pundits and journalist hacks. To poets the notion is more anathema even though they have, from time to time, claimed to more accurately channel those energies of the demos, returning to bardic origins, becoming oracular. Perhaps the silence surrounding Elizabeth Alexander's inaugural poem attests to a disappointment; we played the dummy for eight years, but yet we (if we can say "we") are still looking for someone else to pick up the hollow limbs and give voice to what is a strange object. What Elizabeth Alexander's poem did was to keep it that way: to show that only word by word, each becoming strange as the next passes, can each person "build" what goes by another word ("democracy").
Alexander avoided inclusiveness—the violence of talking for others—but also highlighted the problem of alienation—which we inevitably still try to overcome—by beginning the poem with many instances of the word "each." "Each" is left to its own cell, and this is performed in the halting manner of her performance. Each also is left to resonate, so that, although she read off paper, the poem seems like it's coming up on the teleprompter, one word after another, as in Michael Snow's structural-concrete-poem-film "So Is This." Snow's film hyperextends the tendency of the word "this" to glom onto multiple angles when left unattributed, to the point that the film becomes an exploration of the ambience of meaning, even (and perhaps especially) heightened when phrase is stripped down to word units. Similarly, in Alexander's performance, you listen unit by unit, so that by the time you get to the first truly inclusive word ("all") it has become mere word, pomp deflated. Then "all" does at least two other paradoxical things. The inclusive word reminds of the separation with which the poem began . . . "All about us is noise." But the homily of the day might be in the third meaning. Noise doesn't just "surround" us, but it is what we are all about.
Each word was a space for projection, where the massive audience was invited to take up the work of figuring out the disconnects nearest to hand. I've never heard Alexander read before, but I think she played with this dynamic of projection just as much as she played with the materiality of each word. So she was both channeling the materialist, localist poetics of Williams and the more context-bending work of language poets. You don't hear much anymore about syntagmatic and paradigmatic axes and their poetic confounding, but she was doing just that. By placing word after word as if it could be sucked back into the totality of noise, meaning faded in and out. Only occasionally did she permit the temporal axis of language—the fragile syntagmatic—access to the paradigmatic—the history that powers a sentence and its overall meaning. Because of this, when she got to the obligatory American tableaux announced by the next abstract repeated word ("someone"), they did not have the cocksure gravitas of a Chevy commercial, but rather seemed instead the fragments glimpsed or imagined by only one person, in one place and time. And each "someone" described is dealing with their own attempt at this elusive "one." I like the line "the figuring-it-out at kitchen tables," precisely because of the way it just hangs there. You figure it out.
All these moves, by-now pedestrian in most contemporary poetry, are all told a striking response in this context to the unspoken expectations she was faced with, circulating around the problems of soul. And this is not only the problem of speaking the soul of the people, but also the perhaps racist expectations for a soulful reading. Soul, however, is not merely the cordoned off domain of how blacks (and poets generally) tend to be expected to perform, but is also what powers the down-home-before-hard-facts ethos of those who get along with their Texan (or Alaskan) soulfulness. Remember that many who voted against Al Gore cited his "robotic" qualities. Soul usually wins out, skimming over the hard details of the material substratum, even as it admits—or fakes—a deep knowledge of that material (which makes it different than, say, "spirit.") Soul can have liberatory potential—going straight to love through a world of pain—but can also miss the point—deranged by pain's surly revisions. When Alexander says, "say it plain, that many have died for this day" she starts to approach this fraught category of soul, albeit undercutting it still. If history appears—the thing which is no longer a thing—it is shared history of no special days and no special deaths. Sick of memorials used to cover cynical maneuvers, history is blanked. It's as if she's going for the Maya Lin-effect of reflective minimalist granite, although here without referent. When the word "love" rears, she is also at pains not to ally it with jingoistic forms of connection. It is instead something which may be akin to the future. "Today's sharp sparkle" picks up its light just a bit (for we are "on the brink, on the brim, on the cusp"), and this is the place where work happens—the task at the level of the sentence, where the world is passed on through the mechanisms of the word. For all those who rushed to their telecommunications device of choice to see "history" the other day, she was clearly telling us: nothing to see here; for all those people who celebrated on the streets a few months back, the message was also clear: Now, get to work.

very helpful and friendly staff
The staff were very helpful. The location is good with many bars and eateries very close by. Free basic wi fi. Fine for an overnight visit to NY.
Very cramped and over crowed rooms with too much unnecessary furniture. The lighting is very poor giving the room a gloomy disposition.
Near the UN,
Bed needs improvements
Good location and nice place
Very expensive parking
Friendly staff in all areas of hospitality spacious rooms great location roof terrace a bonus
Poor / or no wifi connection in some areas of hotel, elevators very busy at peak times
The hotel was a clean, reasonably comfortable place to stay at a somewhat competitive price.
If you are looking for something more than basic, keep looking. There's nothing I would call luxurious about it. Though there is a bar, there's rally no lobby to speak of. The staff were not discourteous, but they were not going to go out of their way either. There was a loud mechanical noise from air conditioning or some other equipment that was not enough to keep me awake, but was omnipresent.
location, staff service. got upgraded to huge suite without asking!
a little worn around the edges.
Location was perfect. Helpful staff.
No spa as listed as part of facilities on internet. No balcony too as per picture of hotel on internet. Disappointing
Location and very helpful staff.
Air conditioning generator could be heard most of the night resulting in disturbed sleep.
Great central location, staff were friendly and hotel room was a good size, very comfortable and clean.
The hotel offered a cab-fare to another hotel on a poor location. We rejected the given offer. The hotel offered another location close by - when we arrived this new hotel was not available more than one day - we have booked 2 days, so this was just another problem.... Egon Munk.
Excellent location.
Loud neighbors who came in late.
We loved the hotel. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They would help us with any query we asked in detail. The location is close to central station and Times Square is in walking distance. A great stay!!
Wifi doesn't work well, which wasnt too much of a problem for us so we just used the local restaurants when we went out for dinner.
1) 3 to 4 minutes walk to Grand Central Station. 2) Nearest Deli has variety of food and reasonable price.
1) There weren't pan and coffeepot in the room.
Location Comfortable
Value for money
Room size
Location was perfect , very centralized in Manhattan
The fridge was broken and not working, not enough lighting as the lamps were not working and had to stay with 2 small lamps. Informed the reception thrice about this but nothing was done.
Location was great!
Staff didn't know what to do when asked about busted safe or malfunctioning drapes. Lobby was horrible, and the gym was not to the standard. The hotel needs renovations ASAP, wall paper loosening, roof lights are busted and dangling.
Great customer service .. Room looked excellent
That I had to leave
The location
The very loud business meeting at breakfast with the off key singer.
The rooms/suites were of a good size with kitchen facilities. It would have been perfectly described as an apartment as it had all you needed for your trip. The rooftop terrace was small but provided somewhere outside to sit and take in the views. Breakfast was provided free with our booking and although 'Continental' was adequate; staff were friendly and provided a good service. I liked that Wifi was provided in the lobby free-of-charge!
Almost all of the reception staff were friendly and efficient however one male member of staff dealing with the hotel car/cabs was not helpful at all. That said when I raised my concern with the manager at reception, it was dealt with promptly.
Price, convenience, familiarity, beds, temperature
No soap, towel rack broken, bathtub drain out of place. No TV channel guide.
Clean and comfortable furniture. Bathroom was good.
Some areas need revamping like elevator carpet. Persistent noise in some rooms, probably coming from ac equipment outside. First room wounded like a constant low speed drill was running, until I asked for a switch. Free breakfast for vegetarians was simply oatmeal. I asked for potatoes, they said they had none, but saw person near me eating some. Lots of non-HD tv channels, if you care about that.
food Quality staff services
Room appointments and size, view of the Chrysler building, pleasant breakfast staff, close to restaurants on second avenue
Only two stuffy elevators, was approached by the timeshare salespeople, no doorman, lobby has one bench that was usually occupied by the potential timeshare recruits

Coca-Cola the Great
Alvin is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
No other company has quietly dominated the world as much as The Coca-Cola Co (NYSE: KO). Coca-Cola, which has been in business since 1886, is in the boring business of selling soft drinks. However, in the over 100 years that the company has been in existence, it has built up a globally recognizable brand that is unrivaled by any other company in the soft drink industry. Coca-Cola owns or licenses over 500 non-alcoholic beverage brands. According to BrandZ, Coca-Cola is the number one brand in soft drinks with a brand value of $60.3 billion. Diet Coke is number two with a brand value of $14 billion. The following table shows the top ten brands in the soft drinks industry (BrandZ).
As shown, Coca-Cola dominates the industry. While there are ten brands listed, there are actually only four companies with a brand in the top ten: Coca-Cola, Red Bull GmbH, PepsiCo (NYSE: PEP), and Dr. Pepper Snapple Group (NYSE: DPS). Coca-Cola owns Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Fanta, and Sprite; Red Bull GmbH owns Red Bull; PepsiCo owns Pepsi, Gatorade, Mountain Dew, and Diet Pepsi; and Dr. Pepper Snapple Group owns Dr. Pepper. Coca-Cola has a 20 year license agreement (agreed on in year 2010) with Dr. Pepper, in which Dr. Pepper licenses certain Dr. Pepper trademarks to Coca-Cola for use in North America. In "BrandZ Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands 2012," Coca-Cola sits at number six overall and beats out some other well known companies such as General Electric, Visa, Nike, and Intel. In comparison, Pepsi and Red Bull sit at 67 and 80, respectively. In terms of competition, Pepsi is Coca-Cola's biggest rival. In 2011, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and Dr. Pepper Snapple had net incomes of $8.6 billion, $6.4 billion, and $606 million, respectively.
In Q3 2012, in a tough global economy, Coca-Cola reported a solid quarter. Net revenue and net income grew by 1% and 4% year over year, respectively. Most impressively, Coca-Cola reported volume growth in all of its geographic operating groups including Europe, which was up by 1%. Coca-Cola CEO Muhtar Kent stated, "We have been able to crack the calculus for growth in this environment. We have done this by consistently investing in our system and our brands to ensure that our global portfolio is more relevant and healthier today than it has ever been. We remain resolutely focused on ensuring that we leverage our wonderful heritage and fuse it with what is expected by our consumers today in order to earn and sustain our place in their daily lives tomorrow."
Looking back, Coca-Cola recently (relatively) made expensive acquisitions. In 2010, Coca-Cola acquired Coca-Cola Enterprises' (NYSE: CCE) North America bottling business for $12.3 billion. In the exchange, Coca Cola Enterprises bought Coca-Cola's bottling operations in Norway and Sweden. Coca-Cola Enterprises' North America bottling business is Coca Cola's largest bottler in the region. Also, in 2007, Coca-Cola bought Glaceau the maker of Vitaminwater for $4.1 billion. While acquisitions have always been part of Coca-Cola's DNA, these are very expensive acquisitions. However, the acquisitions look like they have been panning out for the company. From 2006 to 2011, Coca-Cola averaged a 14.08% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) in revenue and a 12% CAGR in operating income.
Going forward, the company's growth hinges on increasing its volumes through developing markets and partnering with local bottlers. There should be a natural trend of growth because global and urban populations are growing. In a UN report, by year 2050, Africa's and Asia's urban populations are projected to grow from 414 million to over 1.2 billion and from 1.9 billion to 3.3 billion, respectively. In the quarter, Eurasia & Africa accounted for just 6% of the company's net operating revenue. Coca-Cola has plenty of opportunity to grow. However, there are risks to such a big global operation. Big global operations are very complex, susceptible to currency fluctuations, and at the mercy of local laws. Regardless, Coca-Cola is a solid business. It has a well established business with an overwhelming brand and opportunities to grow. At a PE of 19.1 and a tangible book value per share of only $1.21, the company is not cheap. In addition, the company has about $33 billion in total debt. However, with the current global economic problems (Europe, Fiscal Cliff, etc) investors might get the opportunity to snatch up shares at a cheap price. Boring Coca-Cola should not be ignored.

Kelly Clarkson & Brandon Blackstock Go 'Fancy' For Inaugural Ball
After performing at President Barack Obama's second inauguration ceremony on Monday, Kelly Clarkson and fiance Brandon Blackstock continued the celebration on Monday night – but according to the singer, the First Lady was the one who got the party started!
"Just partied at the White House ….I kid you not, Michelle Obama stood up and got the party started ….seriously cool First Lady," the singer Tweeted.
Earlier in the night, Kelly shared a photo of herself and her fiancé getting all dolled up for the big night in Washington, D.C.
"Me and Brandon in our 'fancy' attire :) Fun night!" she wrote. "My dress barely fit in the car for tonight's festivities. I feel like Cinderella! Thank you Oscar De La Renta!"
Earlier on Monday, Kelly gave a rousing performance of "My Country 'Tis of Thee" with the United States Marine Band helping her out.
"What an honor to be a part of history! Obama's presence was powerful and his words unforgettable. It's a proud day for America," the "American Idol" said of her performance.
And Kelly's performance appears to have won over at least one of her fellow singers.
Bette Midler Tweeted Kelly, writing "'My Country Tis of Thee'never sounded better! Thank you @KellyClarkson & US Marine Band!"
"Thank you!! Girl, I was so nervous!" Kelly Tweeted back.

The NHS Employers organisation and the British Medical Association (BMA) have worked together to produce A guide to consultant job planning. The challenges facing the NHS highlight the importance of consultant job planning as a means of organising resources effectively and efficiently.
This guide emphasises the need for consultants and managers to work closely together to meet their shared responsibility of providing the best possible patient care within the resources available to them. The consultant job plan, is a key mechanism through which this shared responsibility can be agreed, monitored and delivered.
This new guide supplements the material already available. It highlights the benefits of effective preparation for both managers and consultants and covers objective setting, information gathering, supporting resources which may be required and some of the contractual provisions relevant to component parts of the job plan.
The guidance doesn't change any of the current features of the consultant contract or the terms and conditions, but does offer guidance so that the flexibilities contained within the contract are used effectively.
Key principles to job planning
The guidance sets out some key principles which should characterise a collaborative approach to job planning. The principles are that job planning should be:
A consultant job plan assembled and agreed in line with these principles will help consultants and managers meet the challenge of delivering high quality care within a testing financial environment during a period of significant organisational change.
We encourage NHS organisations to review how job planning can be used to drive improvements and quality of patient care. Some trusts are looking at new IT tools, some at annualisation, others at team or departmental job planning amongst other initiatives. All these have the potential to improve the process and should be explored, but the best way to ensure sound job planning is to focus on objectives.
Download A guide to consultant job planning (July 2011)
This toolkit, issued in January 2005, aims to help those involved in consultant job planning to maximise the benefits to be gained and provoke thought and discussion at an organisational level.
The toolkit is split into a number of sections. These are set out under the following headings:

There are some who believe they, and everyone else, will go to Heaven when they die -- that it is not logical that a loving God would let anyone go to Hell.I was listening to my car radio some time ago and the announcer was saying that God loved everybody so much He would never let anyone go to Hell rather than Heaven. Some people are prone to talk in half-truths. God does love everyone; we know this from the Bible. John 3:16 tells us, "For God so loved the world ... " This does mean He loves everybody-the world. However, one must hear all that God is saying: "That He gave His only Son, that whosoever believes in Him would not perish, but would have eternal life." To go to Heaven, one must believe in Jesus Christ. This means one must have faith in Jesus in order to go to Heaven! God loves us! Yes! He is doing His part, giving us His plan of salvation. But we must accept fully this great offer of His Son's sacrifice, His death on the cross, His burial and His resurrection. If we do not, then our choice is punishment in Hell. There are many scriptures that fully back up this truth, that further explain the part we humans must believe in order to be saved. Ephesians 2:8 and 9 tell us,"For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works so that none can boast." We definitely are saved through our faith in Jesus Christ. I have the privilege of asking many each week if they feel they will go to Heaven when they die, and why. Many say simply: "I live a good life, and I go to Church when I can." Others say: "I'm a good person." And still others say: "Because I deserve it." These are all "work" answers and will not take anyone to Heaven. We just read that the Bible says, "Not of works." No, it is by faith alone that we are saved! All must repent of their sins and ask God to forgive them in Jesus Christ's name. There is no other way! We cannot earn our way to Heaven, nor can we modify God's plan in any way. Jesus said in John 14: 6, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father except by me." Romans 10: 9 and 10 says, "If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness and with the mouth one confesses resulting in salvation." Proverbs 14:12 says, "There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death." Romans 6:23 says, "The wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Will everyone go to Heaven one day? Only through faith in Jesus Christ. Our great God gives us a choice, either to accept Jesus as Savior or to reject Him. He wants to bless us and expand our mind, our capabilities and to guide us in our life as we live for Him. Will you put your faith in Jesus today? I pray you will. May God bless you.

JULY 9. 1991 r pi W li i Weber State University Ogden, Utah DILji!i Doug Peterson appointed to State Board of Regents By Jim Sawdey Editor-ln-chlef of The Sgnpost Doug Peterson, last year's ASWSU president, has been appointed student regent to the State Board of Regents. Peterson will become one of 1 6 voting members of the State Board of Regents, the organization that governs institutions of higher education in Utah. Fifteen members of the board are appointed to a three- year term by the governor. The student regent is appointed for one year. Gov. Norman Bangerter notified Peterson, a WSU junior, that his one-year term became effective July 1 . But a state legislative interim committee is expected to ratify the appointment today, Peterson said. Bangerter chose Peterson from a list of three candidates submitted to the governor by the Utah Council of Student Body Presidents. Peterson is the second former ASWSU president to be appointed to the board since 1989, when Stephanie Jessen served. Having representation from WSU on the board won't directly benefit the university, Peterson said. "My foremost responsibility is to represent all the students in Utah." But his membership won't hurt either, he said. "I'd be an advocate of Weber State and its interests."

|Associated Students of Weber State University; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.
