Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, writers of smash hit "Zombieland" are feeling rather cocky of late.

Through his extensive work from the late 60's to today, R. Crumb single-handedly defined the underground comic genre. Although Puritan parents of the era dealt out spankings for finding any comic stash, an unearthed copy of Zap Comix could mean a trip to boarding school, or perhaps even a mental institution. If you've ever truly wanted to try and get inside the head of the twisted man behind Fritz the Cat and Mr Natural, Terry Zwigoff's 1994 documentary "Crumb" is about as close as you can possibly get.
CC's back, Joe's confused, and we hope you enjoy the new sound!

Dunwoody police are crediting a Facebook plea for help from the public as the reason they were able to help a disabled woman get off the streets and on board a train home to Washington, D.C.
Since Christmas Day, police in Dunwoody had noticed a woman in a wheelchair around the Perimeter Mall area. She was seen sleeping in her chair near the main mall entrance on Christmas night.
"A few people called because they were afraid she might get hit by a car," said Sgt. Fidel Espinoza. "One of our officers found her asleep near the Perimeter Mall area. It was a pretty chilly night."
Espinoza said the woman, named Dorothy, told them she rode Amtrak down from Washington, D.C., to visit friends in the Atlanta area. Those friends never showed up or met with Dorothy, and her money quickly ran out.
Espinoza said Dorothy has Parkinson's Disease and relies on a disability check to make ends meet. Without any money or a place to go, she effectively became homeless during her stay in the Atlanta area.
"Last few days, she's been on the streets," said Espinoza.
After finding Dorothy again on the street early Sunday morning, Espinoza took her to police headquarters. Upon learning more about her situation, police decided to find a way to get her home. That would require money for a train ticket.
Espinoza decided to ask the public for help via the department's Facebook page. He posted the request Sunday morning.
"My phone started chirping off the hook, so to speak," said Espinoza. "Within just a couple of minutes, we had the $178 Amtrak ticket paid for."
Espinoza said someone also stepped forward to pay for a hotel for Dorothy and get her to the Amtrak station. She was scheduled to leave on the Monday evening train for Washington, D.C.

Sigh. The skeptidrama doesn't stop. I don't feel happy writing about it, but something has gone down that I feel is serious enough that I just have to write about it. Please, if you'd rather not get involved (and I would have every sympathy if you didn't) please stop reading now.
PZ Myers is someone I've always greatly admired. I've loved his fights against creationism and intelligent design, and I've admired his brazen no-nonsense approach to things like Eucharist desecration. I was very happy to meet him at TAM London 2010.
But now, a fellow skeptic has been incorrectly labelled as someone who uses vulgar gendered insults (specifically c**t) against Rebecca Watson, and PZ is largely to blame. Coffee Loving Skeptic (henceforth referred to as CLS) has given his version of events, complete with actual evidence of what was said and when. PZ Myers has responded with his version, lacking such evidence. Seeing as Rebecca Watson's tweet was a reply to one of mine, I feel compelled to give my version of events.
I saw a tweet from CLS saying that PZ had blocked him. Seeing as Twitter is a public forum, I thought I'd ask PZ why he did that. Although he was under no obligation to do so (I don't usually expect a response from celebs on Twitter), he replied saying that he didn't believe that he had. With two people who I tend to trust saying conflicting things, I thought it might be a Twitter bug (certainly not unknown) and asked CLS to check again. He then provided conclusive evidence that PZ was blocking him. In the meantime, Rebecca Watson had replied to PZ saying that CLS was the guy who called her a c**t, and after he begged to be unblocked called her a c**t again. This is clearly untrue, and possibly a case of mistaken identity. CLS then wrote his blog post where he clearly showed that he DID NOT call Rebecca Watson a c**t. PZ then produced a few tweets mentioning "entitlement", and went on a rather baffling blocking spree more reminiscent of the climate change denier James Delingpole.
So, why do I care? Why don't I treat this as a piece of tit-for-tat that just isn't worth my attention? I care because someone has pretty much been libelled as someone who calls women c**ts, firstly by Rebecca Watson to her 24,000-odd followers, and then by PZ Myers with his 100k followers, when he retweeted her. So combined, Rebecca Watson and PZ Myers have let it be known to about 125,000 Twitter accounts that CLS is someone who uses gendered insults against women, when this is clearly not the case.
It's also very frustrating that all that's required from Rebecca Watson (at least if she wants to be civil), is a quick acknowledgement of her error and an apology. Instead, PZ has repeatedly obfuscated the issue by trying to make out that it's about "entitlement" and moaning about being blocked on Twitter. This is dishonest and evasive. I've amended the Twitter exchange to show the sort of thing that would make things so much better:
- PZ Myers: Don't know that I did. He has a protected account, apparently. RT
@skepticCanary: why did you block @TPRyan007 ?
- Rebecca Watson:
@pzmyers That's the guy I blocked for calling me a cunt. He emailed begging me to unblock, then called me a cunt again when I didn't. Ha ha
- Rebecca Watson (if she was being civil): Sorry everyone, @TPRyan007 did not call me a cunt
Is that really too much to ask?

Q) What's harder -- climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro or performing live on stage eight times/week?
A) They are both really tough in different ways; however, I have to say that the preparation for climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro was the toughest thing I've had to do. It was also very hard whilst I was climbing due to the altitude; you feel sick and dizzy all the time. However, it was so rewarding that it made it all worthwhile. I must add that being on stage eight times a week in Shrek is pretty grueling too.
Q) How did you prepare for each?
A) I had to train extensively for three months before climbing, I went on very long walks to prepare myself and I also exercised in a high-altitude room at my gym. Still, all the preparation that I did still didn't prepare me for the climb; it was physically and emotionally exhausting. Working out for Shrek is different because it's more about keeping up with my current fitness regime; being on stage for two hours is like a hard workout. I'm technically doing eight shows a week and two to three times a week at the gym, so it's a lot of working out. However, it does mean that I can have "cheat" days and eat what I like.
Q) What's your typical workout routine? Fave fitness activities?
A) I work out two or three times per week; however, before I was in Shrek I used to work out three to four times per week. Currently I like to run outdoors -- I'm not a fan of running in the gym because I get bored. By running outside I can be nosey and see what's going on. My favourite workout at the gym is the free weights; it gives me the most rewards and makes me feel tightened and toned. Additionally, I've recently got into yoga and Pilates. They both help me stretch out and I'm feeling much more flexible these days.
Q) What have been the biggest benefits of exercise for you?
A) Exercise makes me feel energetic and since working out, I don't feel so tired. Exercise has made me more toned and has made me pretty strong, which I'm proud about.
Q) You've got a rockin' curvaceous body. Were you ever pressured to get thinner than felt comfortable?
A) No, I've always had a curvaceous body, although when I was younger I wanted a different shape; however, everyone thinks like that when they're young. I've grown to accept my shape and embrace the curves that I have. My idols are Beyonce, JLo and Rihanna. They show women how having curves can be sexy!
Q) Do you work out with a trainer or on your own?
A) I work out with a personal trainer and she motivates me to keep up my fitness regime.
Q) BodyTrain is big on "buddy workouts." What's the best part about working out with your sis and friends?
A) I love working out with friends, Cheryl [Cole] and I go to the gym a lot, and she's a great person to work out with because she pushes me and she's got good stamina. I also go running with my sister Amy a lot.
Q) You've obviously got tons of energy -- how do you maintain it?
A) By staying active and eating well and getting lots of quality sleep at night.
Q) How do you de-stress and unwind?
A) When I get a night off from the theatre I tend to stay in with my boyfriend Justin and we just watch box sets such as Entourage and Sex and the City. I also find that cooking and baking cakes is therapeutic. I sometimes pull out a recipe on my day off and set myself a challenge to bake a cake. It helps me shut off for a few hours.
Q) You're an idol to teen girls and young women, and so many are consumed by weight concerns and body issues. What would you say to them?
A) I would say that you should have a well-balanced diet and never fad diet; it's just not worth it. I tried fad diets when I was younger and although you might see some weight loss, you tend to put it all back on when you finish. I now make sure that I work out and live by a healthy diet. Of course, I have days where I eat what I want and that's important. You should never starve your mind of food.

Nesmith Library Board of Trustees
Tuesday, September 11, 2012
Present: Trustees – Norman Boutillette (Chairman), Mark Branoff (Treasurer), Patricia Barstow (Recording Secretary), Karen Marcil (Assistant Treasurer), Tara Picciano via Skype (Corresponding Secretary), Mary Lee Underhill
Director – Carl Heidenblad
Assistant Directors – Diane Mayr, Lois Freeston
FLOW – Pam Skwiot (President)
Excused: Peter Tousignant (Vice-Chairman)
Call to Order:
The meeting was called to order at 7:00 pm. The minutes from the June 12, 2012 meeting were accepted with one spelling correction.
Correspondence: There was no new correspondence.
Treasurer's Report: 2/3 of the year has elapsed and about 2/3 of the budget has been expended. The size of the Technical Services expenditure reflects the payment of our annual GMILCS dues. A new section was added to the Monthly Financial Report to demonstrate the Library's compliance with RSA 32:7 (Lapse of Appropriations) of the Municipal Budget Law for appropriated funds transferred to the Library by the Town Treasurer, as of 12/31/2011.
Director's Report:
· Circulation statistics indicate changing library use patterns over the last 18 months or so. While the numbers are down, staff members feel they've been as busy as ever, but doing different things.
· There are no building maintenance issues at the moment, which is good since Al Barlow has not yet been replaced as the head of the town's maintenance department. The library appreciates all of the work Al did over the years on its behalf.
· Carpet cleaning has been rescheduled to Columbus Day.
· Carl requested that a CIP discussion for 2014 be placed on the agenda for the October or November Board meeting.
· There have been some broadband connection issues which FairPoint is monitoring.
· At the August 6 Selectmen's meeting, there was discussion about whether the library was in compliance with with RSA 32:7 (Lapse of Appropriation). It is in compliance.
· Budgets are due to David Sullivan and Dana Call by October 5. This should be discussed at the October Board meeting. Carl emphasized that, due to budgetary constraints, the library now makes due with about 20% less than it did in 2009 and that this belt tightening has not been without consequences.
· Carl requested that a meeting of the personnel committee be convened to discuss a few items he is proposing for the 2013 budget.
· New non-personnel-related items for the 2013 budget include weatherstripping the front doors, a lighting upgrade, and on-demand water heaters. These items could possibly be attended to this year if the property maintenance budget allows.
FLOW Report: FLOW's first Board meeting will take place next week. There has been some turnover in Board positions but Pam expects that all positions will be filled. The Strawberry Festival had its second best net income ever.
Unfinished Business:
Endowment Fund Committee: A motion was made by Mary Lee and was seconded to accept the proposed Named Fund document as presented this evening with the addition of a seventh policy.
Discussion: Policy 7: If the Nesmith Library ceases to exist as an entity, control of the Fund's assets will transfer in accordance with applicable state laws and regulations.
The motion passed unanimously.
Donations: A motion was made by Patricia and was seconded to accept two anonymous gifts, of $25 and $50, to be used for the direct benefit of the public. The Board gratefully acknowledges receipt of these gifts. The motion passed unanimously.
Personnel Committee Meeting: Wednesday, September 26, 2012, 5:30 pm.
Trustees' Meeting: Tuesday, October 9, 2012, 7:00 pm.
The meeting was adjourned at 8:05 pm.
Respectfully submitted,
Patricia Barstow
Draft subject to approval

Iridian Asset Management Owns 6% of W.R. Grace
Meena is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
A 13G filed with the SEC has disclosed that Iridian Asset Management, a special situations fund managed by David Cohen and Harold Levy, now owns 4.5 million shares of W.R. Grace (NYSE: GRA). W.R. Grace is a $5.4 billion market cap specialty chemicals company best known for its catalysts which are used to convert oil into transportation fuels. In the third quarter of 2012, Iridian increased its stake in the company by 52% to a total of 2.7 million shares; this new filing reports an increase of 67% from that level. We calculate that at the current stock price of about $71.80 per share Iridian's position is worth over $320 million, which would make it among the largest--if not the largest, as it would have been in Q3--positions by market value in the fund's portfolio (Find more of Iridian's favorite stocks).
In the third quarter of 2012, W.R. Grace experienced a 10% decline in revenue; this reversed the trend of top-line growth that the company had shown in the first half of the year. While W.R. Grace did reduce its COGS and SGA expenses, and margins actually improved despite the fall in sales, earnings ended up decreasing by 7%. The catalyst business, which is the largest source of revenue and responsible for over half of segment operating income, was the primary culprit: revenue and operating income there were each down close to 20%.
The markets are pricing in a recovery at the company, with the current price representing a trailing P/E of 21. Wall Street analyst consensus is for significant earnings growth in 2013 (the current-year P/E is only 16), and certainly Cohen, Levy, and their team have to be depending on an improved bottom line at the company. However, we would be wary of investing in a stock with that multiple unless it showed actual prospects of a turnaround.
Iridian had been the largest holder of the stock at the end of September in our database of 13F filings, but other hedge funds and notable investors were interested in W.R. Grace as well. Billionaire Richard Chilton's Chilton Investment Company initiated a position of 1.4 million shares during the third quarter of 2012 (see more of Chilton's stock picks). Tiger Cubs John Griffin (of Blue Ridge Capital) and Andreas Halvorsen (or Viking Global) also had large positions in the stock. Blue Ridge reported owning 1.9 million shares (check out more stocks Griffin was buying) while Viking Global had 1.6 million shares in its own portfolio.
Other specialty chemicals companies include Albemarle (NYSE: ALB), Rockwood Holdings (NYSE: ROC), RPM International (NYSE: RPM), and Methanex (NASDAQ: MEOH). W.R. Grace's trailing P/E of 21 places it in the middle of the range formed by these peers, with RM and Methanex trading at 25 times their trailing earnings (though current-year estimates put those stocks in the same range as W.R. Grace in terms of valuation) and the other two stocks being cheaper. Specifically, Albemarle carries trailing and forward P/Es of 18 and 11, respectively, while Rockwood's trailing P/E is 10 with a significant decline in net income expected for this year. Albemarle's earnings were down 62% last quarter versus a year earlier, but apparently as with many of these other chemical companies the business is expected to bounce back in 2013. We would note that as a general pattern most of these stocks have high betas, since the demand for chemicals is dependent on the broader economy. W.R. Grace and Albemarle, for example, have betas of 1.8.
We're not sure what the Iridian investment team sees in W.R. Grace. It's possible that the company is in a period of transition and that its business will improve going forward, but for now we would not call it undervalued and, as a result we would avoid the stock.

'The Baseline Is, You Suck': Junot Diaz on Men Who Write About Women
|The Atlantic:
|It sounds like you're saying that literary "talent" doesn't inoculate a writer—especially a male writer—from making gross, false misjudgments about gender. You'd think being a great writer would give you empathy and the ability to understand people who are unlike you—whether we're talking about gender or another category. But that doesn't seem to be the case.
|Junot Diaz:
|I think that unless you are actively, consciously working against the gravitational pull of the culture, you will predictably, thematically, create these sort of fucked-up representations. Without fail. The only way not to do them is to admit to yourself [that] you're fucked up, admit to yourself that you're not good at this shit, and to be conscious in the way that you create these characters. It's so funny what people call inspiration. I have so many young writers who're like, "Well I was inspired. This was my story." And I'm like, "OK. Sir, your inspiration for your stories is like every other male's inspiration for their stories: that the female is only in there to provide sexual service." There comes a time when this mythical inspiration is exposed for doing exactly what it's truthfully doing: to underscore and reinforce cultural structures, or I'd say, cultural asymmetry.

Pork Tenderloin With Burgundy Peppercorn Sauce
I remember as a kid growing up, my sister and I would always tease my parents about their love of freshly-cracked black pepper. We had a huge pepper grinder that used to be placed on the table for every meal, and — while we rarely touched it — they took great delight in cracking fresh pepper onto just about every meal.
Now, decades later, it's Yours Truly who has a slight obsession with the pepper mill. :) Absolutely love filling it with all sorts of beautiful peppercorns that I come across, and enjoying the satisfaction of grinding out some amazingly fresh, fragrant and oh-so-delicious black pepper.
So it will come as no surprise that I'm a huge fan of peppercorn sauce. I usually just improvise and toss in whatever ingredients (wine, brandy, cream, herbs, you name it…) I have on hand. But wrote down this delicious combination I tried last week on my day off to share on here. I ended up serving it over a cooked pork tenderloin, but it would be great on steaks, chicken, seafood, grilled veggies…whatever you'd like to make! Very simple, very versatile, and very flavorful.
So pull out your pepper grinder (or jar of coarsely-ground pepper), and give it a try!!
Pork Tenderloin With Burgundy Peppercorn Sauce
- 1 (about 1 lb.) pork tenderloin
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil (separated)
- 1 cup finely chopped shallots or onion
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup freshly-cracked black peppercorns (preferably coarsely ground)
- 1/2 cup red wine
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup parsley
To prepare the tenderloin: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Trim pork tenderloin of any excess fat, and remove silver skin. (For a helpful video on how to remove silver skin, see here.)
Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Generously season the tenderloin with the freshly-cracked black pepper, and press to be sure it sticks. Add to the skillet and cook, turning as needed, for 4 to 5 minutes (about 1 minute per side), until evenly browned. Transfer tenderloin to a greased baking dish, and place it in the oven to roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin reads 140 degrees. Remove dish from oven and transfer the tenderloin to a plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm.
To make the sauce: Meanwhile, in a skillet or saucepan over medium-high heat, add the shallots and sauté for 2 minutes. Then add the garlic and saute 1 more minute. Add the red wine and as it boils, deglaze the pan by scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon (helps to have one with a straight edge) to dislodge all the browned bits. Once the wine is almost cooked away, add the beef stock and turn the heat to high. Boil the sauce down until there's a noticeable trail when you drag a wooden spoon through the center of it (4-5 minutes).
Pour in the heavy cream and resume boiling. Again, boil down until you can make that telltale trail from the wooden spoon. Turn off the heat and add the parsley and any remaining black pepper (no more than 1 Tbsp, the rest should have already been used to pepper the tenderloin). Taste for salt and add if needed.
Cut the tenderloin on a slight diagonal (in 1/2" or 1" slices), and then spoon the sauce over to serve.
Ali's Tip:
Feel free to substitute in any other favorite wines, brandy, or cognac in for the red wine on this. Anything will work, and be delicious!

(WMC-TV) - If you heard an intruder entering your home, what is the first thing you would do? Would you reach for your phone? Or your gun? Staying safe in your own home can mean a split second decision, but whatever decision you make, be ready to live with the consequences.
Sherry Carruth lives with her children and two dogs in East Memphis.
"I still have kids here. You don't fool with my family."
When something suspicious is going on, Sasha and Lelo sound the alarm.
"I know when she barks, something's going on," Sherry explained. "Neither one of them appreciate anyone that doesn't belong here."
Southaven Police Chief Tom Long says a barking dog goes a long way in keeping you and your family safe.
"That has been proven over and over and over to be one of the best deterrents on the planet," said Chief Long. "Because you really are taking, you know, your life in your hands, even if it's five poodles."
And if the dogs don't stop them, Sherry is ready too.
"If I was back in the bedroom, I'd grab the gun first," she said. "If I'm up here, I'll get the bat that I have in the corner."
Chief Long says OK, but there is something else you should do first.
"Dial 9-1-1. Even if you can't talk, because we're going to respond. Everybody has the enhanced 9-1-1 system that is going to give us your location," he said.
Stay on the phone, and then barricade yourself inside your room to buy yourself some time until police arrive.
If possible, use a piece of furniture to block your door. Keep something in your room to protect yourself, such as a baseball bat or pepper spray. And let the intruder know that you are taking action.
"Tell them. Let them know what they're dealing with," said Chief Long. "At that point, it may be a relative of yours, that says 'Hey, it's me.'"
Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Missouri operate under separate Castle Doctrines or "Stand Your Ground" laws that allow a person to legally use deadly force when a victim feels his or her life is being threatened. Specifics vary state to state.
"Well, I'd automatically shoot them. There's no question on that," said Sherry. "I think any person who felt their life was threatened and had a gun, would use it."
Chief Long wants to remind everyone to think before acting.
"If it turns out to be some young teenager or some kid who ran away from home and crawled in, you know. You may not be near as zealous about wanting to defend it against that person as somebody that escaped prison that's murdered three people," he explained.
Sherry says regardless of who tries to get in, she is prepared.
"God helps those who help themselves. I'm prepared to take care of myself," she said.
Chief Long says if you are going to use a gun to protect yourself, do it legally. He also warns that you will live with the decision you make for the rest of your life, so be prepared to deal with the consequences.

Those of you fearing you'll be lost without "Lost," take heart. The historic Strand Theatre on the Marietta Square offers a sort of group therapy for you this weekend.
The Strand offers a free screening of the mysterious sci-fi drama's final episode this Sunday. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and a two-hour retrospective begins at 7 p.m. Then at 9 p.m. the last episode, which supposedly will answer all those lingering questions fans have, will be shown.
Admission is free. The Strand concession stand will be open so that you and fellow Losties can commiserate over popcorn, candy, soft drinks, beer and wine. But the theater has just 531 seats. If you show up and you're number 532, well, get lost.
For more information see the Strand's Web site.

Optimum Nutrition - Beta-Alanine Powder Unflavored - 203 Grams (7.15 oz.)
Optimum Nutrition Beta Alanine Powder with Histidine and Electrolytes is a muscle fatigue fighter. During high-intensity training, glucose and glycogen are broken down for energy. In the process, hydrogen ions (H+) are also produced within the muscles. H+ accumulation causes the muscle to become more acidic and ultimately leads to fatigue . Packed with Beta-Alanine, Histidine, and Phosphates Optimum Nutrition's Beta-Alanine Powder formula is deisnged to help boost your intramuscular buffering system so you can train harder, longer.
Beyond The Basics
About Optimum NutritionOptimum Nutrition, Inc. (ON) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Glanbia, a leading international cheese and nutritional ingredients group. ON owns and operates two brands of nutritional supplements (Optimum Nutrition and American Body Building) providing a comprehensive line of products across multiple categories. With state-of-the-art production facilities occupying over 500,000 square feet of operating space, ON is the only sports nutrition company to manufacture items in every product category. Whether it's nutritional bars, protein powders, ready-to-drink sports beverages, or vitamins, essential minerals, and herbs, Optimum Nutrition is able to control the integrity of all products through in-house manufacturing. Supported by Costello's Health Distributors (Optimum Nutrition's sister distribution company) and ABB's nationwide direct service distribution network, customers are ensured prompt delivery and unmatched customer support.
Collectively, Optimum Nutrition, American Body Building, and Costello's Health Distributors, are the dominant force in the sports nutrition industry with the highest quality products available in health food stores, specialty stores, gyms and progressive retailers everywhere.
HistoryOptimum Nutrition was founded in 1986 by brothers Tony and Michael Costello. Originally known as Costello's Health Distributors, the entrepreneurial brothers soon recognized an opportunity in the need for significantly improved quality and innovative vision in the sports nutrition industry. The Optimum Nutrition brand was launched to satisfy both demands, and after 22 years of success reflected in great part by the ongoing best-selling status of ON Gold Standard 100% Whey, the Costello's entered into agreement to sell the company to the international cheese and nutritional ingredients group Glanbia.
Optimum Nutrition Mission StatementOptimum Nutrition strives to produce distinctive, affordable, premium-quality products while making every effort to anticipate ever-changing customer needs and meet the demands of a dynamic market with innovative products, effective support materials, and unsurpassed service.
AffordabilityAs an advocate of healthy lifestyles, ON believes that every consumer should be able to purchase premium products; so they eliminate the middlemen and control the integrity of their brand throughout the entire production and distribution processes, making sure each product is not just top quality, but also among the most competitively priced in the industry.
Quality CountsOptimum Nutrition's commitment to quality is evident throughout the entire product development process. Before a single machine is turned on they carefully select vendors who supply premium raw materials. All vendors must provide a Certificate of Analysis for each raw material as a continued measure of quality. These certificates are then verified through random in-house and independent laboratory testing. Highly sophisticated equipment confirms the purity and potency of every ingredient on their labels. To further diminish any chance of physical, chemical, and microbiological contaminants, they have established and implemented their own Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) program. Quality assurance professionals make routine checks on all storage, blending, and production areas and conduct final inspections daily. Together, these procedures allow Optimum Nutrition to constantly deliver first-rate sports nutrition supplements under the strictest quality control standards known as current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs).
Customer SatisfactionFrom the beginning, Optimum Nutrition's customers have been their number one priority. While strict quality control, lab testing, and manufacturing under tightly controlled conditions are all very important, they are all done for one reason – to bring you high quality, affordable supplements. They pride themselves on customer loyalty and are pleased to report that nearly all of their first-time customers become devoted patrons. You can be confident that from the moment a product is conceived to the moment it leaves their facility they put only the best into Optimum Nutrition so you only put the best into your body.
Add 1 scoop of Beta-Alanine Powder to a glass or shaker cup filled with 6-8 oz. of cold water or your favorite beverage. Mix or shake thoroughly for 15-20 seconds or until completely dissolved.
Suggested Use: Consume one serving first thing in the morning and a second serving approximately 30 minutes before your workout (or mid-afternoon on non-training days). TIPS: The first few times you use it, Beta-Alanine Powder may cause a tingling sensation on your skin. With continued use, the intensity of the sensation will decrease or disappear. For best results, use Beta-Alanine Powder continuously for at least 8 weeks.

Heinz Ketchup: Only Available on a Whopper Sandwich?
John is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
On Feb. 14, news broke that Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway and partner 3G Capital would be purchasing the iconic American company H.J. Heinz (NYSE: HNZ). The $28 billion dollar deal represents a 20% premium to H.J. Heinz's closing price from Feb. 13. Brazilian investment firm 3G Capital, which maintains controlling ownership of Burger King Worldwide (NYSE: BKW), will be the operational partner going forward at America's favorite ketchup company.
Buffett praised the work that 3G Capital has done thus far at Burger King in widening its appeal among consumers and gaining traction in the competitive quick-service restaurant landscape. 3G purchased Burger King in October 2010, took the company private, and brought a tranche of the company public again in 2012 through a reverse merger transaction with billionaire investor Bill Ackman.
I was fortunate enough to begin my professional career by working at Burger King headquarters here in Miami directly out of college. 3G Capital implemented a hiring freeze, so I was brought in as an independent contractor, working in various roles within Accounting and Finance during 2011 and 2012.
3G Capital = Burger King + H.J. Heinz
How significant is 3G Capital's acquisition of H.J. Heinz for the Burger King brand?
A good friend of mine who is studying law at the University of Virginia sent me a text message upon hearing the Heinz news and suggested good-humoredly that 3G Capital is now in a position to withhold America's favorite ketchup from competitors McDonald's and Wendy's. All kidding aside, it turns out that the Wall Street Journal is reporting that Heinz's discussions with 3G began at a dinner that Heinz CEO William Johnson originally thought was about Burger King, confirming the potential for further connectivity between the two brands.
Here are six reasons I believe Burger King's stock is headed significantly higher:
- The company outclassed Wall Street when it reported fourth quarter 2012 earnings on Feb. 15, sending the stock higher by more than 4% in a single trading session. Burger King posted $0.23 EPS vs. only $0.15 consensus, and revenue came in 8% higher than expected at $404.5 million vs. $375 million.
- Free cash flow has increased more than 70% in the 21 months since the 3G acquisition. During the fourth quarter of 2010, free cash flow stood at $321 million. Fast forward to calendar 2012 and FCF has consistently exceeded $500 million per quarter.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin has increased a massive 820 basis points to 33.2% during fiscal 2012 alone. This conveys that Burger King earns approximately $0.33 before taxes for every $1.00 in sales, compared to a prior $0.25 for every dollar.
- System-wide sales increased 5.9% during calendar 2012 on a constant currency basis, on the back of the largest menu update in the brand's history. 3G Capital has successfully introduced a higher-quality and broader menu, including new items such as chicken tenders, salad wraps, and fruit smoothies.
- On Feb. 12, Burger King announced it is partnering with Seattle's Best Coffee, which is owned by Starbucks, in an effort to double its coffee lineup. The new coffee menu will include 10 items, including flavored iced coffees and vanilla lattes.
- The Wall Street community has become increasingly optimistic on Burger King, after having a moderately pessimistic attitude at the time of the June 2012 IPO. Citigroup initiated coverage of BKW on Dec. 13 with a Buy rating and $20 price target. I expect to see more analyst upgrades following the strong Q4 results.
Finally, I believe Burger King's business could be positively affected by potential synergies from 3G Capital's ownership of Heinz Ketchup. This is a huge wild card that has no downside but a tremendous amount of potential upside. Having worked at Burger King under the 3G Capital leadership, I am confident that no other party could leverage the collective value of the Burger King and H.J. Heinz brands better than 3G.
How much experience did I have at Burger King? For one, the head count reduction at headquarters became so dramatic that a handful of us worked with the 30 year-old grandson of 3G Capital's founder, myself included.
Broader Quick-Service Restaurant Industry
Competitors McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) and Yum! Brands (NYSE: YUM) have both reported quarterly earnings in recent weeks.
McDonald's posted fourth quarter earnings on Jan. 23, earning $1.38 per share on $6.95 billion in revenue. Both figures were higher than analyst estimates. While CEO Don Thompson stated the company has "plenty of room to grow," he spoke of a tough consumer environment internationally, particularly in Germany, which is the European continent's largest economy.
Research analysts at Sanford Bernstein expressed caution on McDonald's following the company's latest results, and the New York firm believes that 2013 comparable store sales could miss consensus estimates. Sanford Bernstein went as far to state that McDonald's is fairly valued at current levels and the company could face greater competition in the New Year. System-wide comparable sales at McDonald's grew a fractional 0.1% during the fourth quarter, compared to 2.7% at Burger King.
Yum! Brands also expressed limited visibility when the company reported fourth quarter results on Feb. 4. China same-store sales were down 6% during Q4, and Yum! dramatically lowered its full-year 2013 forecast. CEO David Novak said he no longer expects to achieve earnings per share growth during 2013, causing the stock to be downgraded at both Goldman Sachs and R.W. Baird. Goldman Sachs lowered its price target to $63 from $77 while Baird lowered to $60 from $72.
Foolish Bottom Line
Burger King's turnaround is real, and the company has the wind to its back going into 2013 at a time when competitors McDonald's and Yum! Brands are beginning to lose steam. 3G Capital's recently announced acquisition of H.J. Heinz is unquestionably positive for Burger King, and could ultimately surprise investors in a big way. I also believe Burger King could become the de-facto "beta play" in the quick-service restaurant space as investors look for new areas of growth.

Operating deficit grows as GST, PAYE misses forecasts
The government's operating deficit was wider than forecast in the first four months of the financial year as the Crown clipped a smaller tax take on consumer spending and wages.
The operating balance before gains and losses (obegal) was a deficit of $2.87 billion in the four months ended October 31, $169 million, or 6.3%, bigger than forecast in the May Budget.
Core tax revenue was 1.6% short of expectations at $17.92 billion, with GST and source deductions from weak private consumption and tepid wage growth the biggest drag on the accounts.
The tax take from GST accruals was 4.9% short of forecast at $8.13 billion in the four-month period, while source deductions missed expectations by 2.6% at $7.16 billion.
Treasury officials say they expect the weakness in both revenue streams to continue through the year.
The total corporate tax take was 1.5% below forecast at $2.41 billion after a smaller return from non-resident withholding tax.
Core Crown spending was 1.5% below forecast at $22.95 billion, with delays in health expenditure and less spent on welfare for fewer beneficiaries.
The under-spends were offset by higher than forecast expenditure on earthquake expenses from land zoning decisions, and the government has lifted its Christchurch red zone provision by $234 million to $1.17 billion.
Including gains from the New Zealand Superannuation Fund and Accident Compensation Corp's investment portfolio, the Crown's operating deficit was $34 million in the period, a 98% improvement on the forecast shortfall of $1.96 billion.
Net government debt was near expectations at $55.47 billion, or 27.1% of gross domestic product.
Comments and questions4
Including profits and losses from the Superannuation fund in the operating deficit distorts the underlying performance and it doesn't seem valid to do so when the government doesn't use the Super fund to fund its expenditure.
So this is why poor old Davey Bain can't be reimbursed for 13+ years of lost wages and dignity. Plus, I guess, AMI & the Finance companies and EQ Comission have siphoned off the rest.
If David Bain needs a job while he waits for his big pay day NZ First has an opening.

The whole series of these Asus notebooks have a major flaw in their motherboard. For some ridiculous reason all of the ports and recharge plugs have been recessed rather than solidly fixed. I have found this puts strain on the component strength and causes them to break away from the board eventually. Using silicon as a glue for extra strenth helps, but as to why Asus did this when there was ample space to fit them a lot more securely is a mystery. Maybe they like to provide repair techs with work?

The Swiss luxury watch manufacturer IWC Schaffhausen has strengthened its partnership with the Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF) and will come on board as a 'Supporting Sponsor' and Official 'Festival-Time' Partner alongside the Dubai Culture & Arts Authority (Dubai Culture) and the Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum International Photography Award (HIPA) for the 10th edition of the Festival, which runs from 6 to 14 December 2013.
The extended commitment from IWC is the result of a successful partnership over the past three years in which IWC has served as the Official 'Festival-Time' Partner of the Gulf Film Festival and DIFF. In 2012, IWC and DIFF launched the IWC Filmmaker Award to support Gulf filmmakers and the production of a feature-length fiction film with an award that offers a cash prize of USD 100,000 to help the winner transfer their vision to the screen. Last year's Academy Award winner and IWC Friend of the Brand Cate Blanchett, who was appointed head of the jury of the IWC Filmmaker Award, presented the award to Iraqi-Emirati director Maysoon Pachachi, of "Nothing Doing in Baghdad".
Submissions have now closed for the second year of the IWC Filmmaker Award, and three submissions will be shortlisted by an independent jury in October before IWC presents the award to its selected winner during the 10th Dubai International Film Festival.
Abdulhamid Juma, Chairman of the Dubai International Film Festival said: "DIFF is pleased to announce this new level of support. It's a pleasure working with IWC Schaffhausen, who so actively encourage the development of the region's film industry, and we look forward to celebrating another year of exceptional filmmaking with them."
The common ground for IWC and the film industry is storytelling. For years now, IWC has been inspired to sponsor the film industry and its most promising young talents. With its various film partnerships around the globe, such as the Tribeca Film Festival and the Beijing International Film Festival, and its annual Filmmakers Dinner at the Cannes International Film Festival, IWC has a wealth of opportunities to express its passion for film. The company is also known for its growing number of Friends of the Brand such as Cate Blanchett, Kevin Spacey and many others. Karoline Huber, Brand Director IWC Middle East & India, comments on the extended partnership with DIFF: "We are delighted to be strengthening our ties with DIFF to further support them in achieving a mutually shared vision of promoting regional talent in the film industry and bringing the very best of films to audiences in the UAE. IWC is proud to support the local film industry as storytelling is not only the essence of filmmaking but also part of IWC's brand DNA."

PacSafe 750 TSA Key Card Locks
The ProSafe 750 uses a key-card locking mechanism to unlock: a credit card sized key sits in your wallet, so you don't need to carry extra keys or remember a combination. The card's punched pattern is unique and coded, so should you lose it, you can contact PacSafe for a replacement. It may sometimes be the case that security staff need to check your bags before they join you on the plane. To avoid your locks being broken and thus rendered useless, PacSafe's Travel Sentry approved locks allow TSA agents (US) and HRSC officers (UK) to open and relock your bag using codes and secured tools.View Details
NOW: £8.00Quick View
BuckleSafe makes it possible to lock the side release buckles that are found on many top loading backpacks and other bags. The included TSA approved padlocks mean even checked luggage can be locked as airport security personnel can open and relock the BuckleSafe during inspection, using secured tools.View Details

MADISON, Wis. (WSAU-Wheeler News Service) - Supporters of Wisconsin's school voucher say it gives low-income kids struggling in public schools a chance for a better education in private schools. However, that's not happening this fall with the 500 students who received vouchers to attend private schools outside of Milwaukee County and Racine.
The state Department of Public Instruction said today that 73-percent of the 500-plus youngsters were already in private school a year ago. Only 21-percent made the jump from public schools. The other six-percent came from out-of-state -- or they were not in school at all last year.
The 73-percent figure for private school holdovers was higher than the 67-percent the D-P-I had predicted in August. Appleton and the Green Bay-De Pere areas had the highest private school enrollments in the voucher program with 53 each. Oshkosh had 29 at Lourdes Acadamy and another 20 at Valley Christian School. Sheboygan has 10 voucher students at Sheboygan Area Lutheran High School and another 20 at Sheboygan Christian School. Twenty voucher students attend Saint Mary's Springs Academy in Fond du Lac.
In Central Wisconsin, Marshfield had 27 students in the voucher program Columbus Catholic School. Stevens Point and Plover areas had 22 at one of the Stevens Point Area Catholic School sites. Wisconsin Rapids have 32 voucher students at Assumption Catholic School and 12 more at Immanuel Lutheran School.
The voucher expansion was limited to 500 students this year. It will be a-thousand next year.

If you use either the Auto Featured Image or Auto Post Thumbnail plugin you may have noticed that your automatically created thumbnails are not working since the WordPress 3.4 update.
The issue is that thumbnails which are created by the plugins don't have a _wp_attached_file entry in the _postmeta table, which manually created thumbnails do.
The solution to the problem in to do the following:
1: Open your media library in WordPress and delete all of the the grey, unattached images which do not appear to have a thumbnail. They should look just like the ones in the picture in this post.
2. You'll have to edit the plugin for this one so fire up your FTP client and download whichever of the two plugins you are using.
Open the plugin in your favorite editor and locate the code below. In auto-featured-image.php it's line 202, and it's line 258 of auto-post-thumbnail.php
wp_update_attachment_metadata( $thumb_id, wp_generate_attachment_metadata( $thumb_id, $new_file ) ); return $thumb_id;
Replace it with the code with the following:
wp_update_attachment_metadata( $thumb_id, wp_generate_attachment_metadata( $thumb_id, $new_file ) ); update_attached_file( $thumb_id, $new_file ); return $thumb_id;
Upload the plugin to your site, find the settings page for your plugin and hit the "generate thumbnails" button. Now sit back and wait while the plugin regenerates all of the thumbnails again.
Thanks to misthero for originally finding the solution for the Auto Post Thumbnail plugin.

Relay for Life live interview
Video Archives
The family of Michael Edwards, 55, who was killed last September in Benton City, called killer Noah Matlack the "son of Satan."
Two families agree: an alleged rape victim isn't getting justice. Those families include the father of the attacker himself. They say the Franklin County Prosecutor never should have struck a deal with the teenager accused of raping his former fiance. They go so far as to call the young man "dangerous" and said the prosecutor is lying. KEPR asked the tough questions to learn why the deal was made.
Consumer Reports offers advice for getting rid of old clothes, furniture and other things when you're doing your annual cleaning or moving someplace new.
Putting a parent or family member in a nursing home is a major decision. And knowing our state gets nearly a failing grade for care, is no comfort to the caretakers. KEPR poured over the records from Families for Better Care to examine our five Tri-Cities nursing homes. We found they were big contributors to bringing the state's grade down.
The Pasco homeless shelter is having the residents participate in community service volunteer hours to earn their meals.
Consumer Reports explains how some Blu-ray players now also provide internet streaming options.
A 17 year old Chiawana football player is in the hospital fighting for his life after a hunting accident.
There's a new way to build a microscope for your smart phone, for next to nothing. PNNL came up with the design.
The trial for a Richland woman accused of killing a baby, has been pushed back yet again. This time, into the new year. Kelli Jacobsen faces manslaughter charges for the death of Ryder Morrison.
A local crisis support center is still not open after running into money trouble this summer. Safe Harbor Crisis Nursery has been unable to offer classes again.
Another standoff led to police shooting a man in Richland this morning. This time, the suspect was hit with non-lethal bullets.
Consumer Reports reviews over the counter medicine and explains the safest way to remove lice.
After almost a decade of consistent drops in collisions, Kennewick is seeing big jump this year.
WSP says one person is dead and another injured when a car rolled over Highway 12 early Monday.
Pasco Police have issued more school zone-related citations over the past three years.
Consumer Reports explains why convertible car seats are a logical choice to protect kids. Consumer Reports also identifies the best options.
A group of Pasco businesses are calling for the withdrawal of plans to expand the UGM men's facility.
The district is looking to consolidate the areas around the elementary school.
Mom pleads guilty to manslaughter
KEPR is continuing to follow the tragic accident that killed a Benton City baby last year. Wendi Finkbeiner was in court today to settle her manslaughter case before it went to trial.

Crow Wing County Board tables reorganization plan eliminating two elected positions
Crow Wing County commissioners voted 3-1 to table a reorganization plan calling for elimination of two elected county officials.
The vote came after state Reps. John Ward, DFL-Baxter, and Joe Radinovich, DFL-Crosby, both said the county should take more time in considering the issue.
The county board needs the backing of a state legislator to pursue the special legislation needed for the change.

Maurizio Pellegrin's Art Studio in Venice, Italy
Maurizio Pellegrin's art studio is in a former 13th century Palazzo in the middle of Venice, Italy. The high ceilings, natural light and stunning features make this space the ideal artist studio. Work and living spaces interweave and finished pieces are shown beside works in progress.
A trained painter and sculptor, Maurizio Pellegrin works in mixed media, drawing, photography, film, installation and glass work. A visitor to his studio gets an invaluable glimpse into the artist's processes and current projects — some of which may never make it out of the studio.
See more of Maurizio Pellegrin's artwork on his website.

Che bella spazio e mi piace l'artista troppo, fortunato.
It looks dark, dreary, and heavy. But it's in Venice, so it's really all about location, location, location here.
Wow, I love the man-grit-euro-gallery feel.
dark? dreary? heavy?
okay, then you saw a different place than i did :-D
love it.
LOVE it!
Huh? Dark, dreary, heavy?
This is an amazing studio!
Very very nice!
Fantastic place, I love the grill above the doorway / aperture.
Interesting .. not my idea of a Venetian studio.
Yes, heavy and dark: heavy, massive dark woods, massive iron bars on windows, gray metalwork and gray kitchen, and the lack of color, excluding some actual pieces related to his work.
The bones of the space are excellent, but as this is a decor/design site mainly for interiors, the space does create a darker mood overall. Obviously, it's his choice, and was not meant to be negative.
mi piace :)

It was a different venue for Good Day Atlanta's Paul Milliken on Friday night as he walked the runway during the annual Simon Fashion Bow Wow at Lenox Square Mall.
The event benefited P.A.L.S. Atlanta and Bauder College. Our Paul worked the judges as he wore a jacket designed by Bauder College student Latasha Lane, who graduates in July. With him was his pal Bruiser, and apparently he impressed the judges to get Lane 1st runner up for her creation!
Now Paul says he tossed a few cookies to the judges, and that may have led to their decision. Maybe it was Bruiser that got Lane her kudos!
Click the video above to check out Paul's walk!

The final day of SXSW came much too quickly. After three days filled with music, fun and BBQ, Austin really picked up for one last day. The afternoon was filled with parties and outdoor shows, despite the frigid weather. Rachael Ray threw her annual party at Stubb's, complete with a fairly decent lineup.
The highlights of the party at Stubb's were She & Him, Andrew WK, Justin Townes Earle and OurStage acts Shayna Zaid and The Catch, The Orion Experience and Lawrence Arabia. Larger acts played on the stages outside while Daytrotter recorded sessions inside. Some of the lucky Daytrotter recorded bands were She & Him, Fang Island, Freelance Whales and Lawrence Arabia. Singer-songwriter Arabia, formally of The Reduction Agents, the Brunettes and the Ruby Sun, was enchanting as he sang songs off his self titled debut and Chant Darling. Fresh off tours with Feist and Okkervil River, Arabia was quite charming and soulful.

Lumps of coal in stocking? Thank you, Santa
This fuel has been out of favor for almost 2 years, but the sector could be poised for a technical rally.
We all want new and exciting electronic gizmos and gadgets for the holiday season. Unfortunately they have the tendency to lose almost all their value within weeks. But what if you just got a lump of dirty old coal in your stocking?
The only individuals who would appreciate a gift like coal would be those forward-looking investors who see major opportunities before they become the next big movers and headline news.
Knowing how to spot Stage 1 patterns is one of the most important bits of information you need to know as an investor. My main focus is on exchange-traded funds (ETFs). They provide lower risk but are very powerful when applied to individual stocks.
Coal and coal stocks have been out of favor for almost two years now. But these unwanted and hated shares may soon be owned by the masses, or at least by traders and investors. (A few weeks ago on Minyanville I talked about the four stages all investments go through and which patterns you must be able to spot in order to make huge money investing while having very limited downside risk in How Traders Get Wealthy Playing Apple, RIM, and Gold Stocks.)
In summary, trade with the NYSE big board, and only focus on buying stocks, ETFs, etc. as they are coming out of a Stage 1 Accumulation Basing Pattern. This puts the odds greatly in your favor for not only winning the majority of your trades, but for generating above-average returns.
The Big Board -- NYSE -- weekly major stock market trend
This chart formed a reversal candle last week, which points to lower prices. It's likely we see a one- to two-week dip before buyers step back in. Until then, individual stocks should pause or form mini bull flags until the sellers are finished and buyers step back into risk on assets (equities).
Coal sector ETF showing Stage 1 basing pattern
Coal stocks have been bouncing bottom for some time, and if you did not review the Stages Report using the link above then do so now so you know what to expect in detail. Market Vectors Coal ETF (KOL) is a basket of coal companies and is starting to show signs of a new bull market. A breakout and close above $26 should trigger strong buying with the potential of a 21% gain before it hits my first price target. This could go way past that, but one target at a time, folks.
Naturally I would like to see a bull flag or pause in KOL over the next couple weeks, then look to get long using the pivot low of that pause/bull flag as my protective stop. I'm not jumping in here as the broad market looks ready to correct and three-quarters of stocks follow the big board, which will pull KOL down.
Alpha Natural Resources -- my top coal stock pick
I pointed out Alpha Natural Resources (ANR) at $7.50 at the beginning of December to followers as it was the best-looking coal stock I could find. The two key indicators, price and volume, were clearly pointing to higher prices, and the potential gain -- even if it was just played up to the Stage 1 Resistance Level -- still netted a 30% move. The crazy part is that there is the potential for a 100% rally to my first price target.
You want gizmos or coal in your stocking?
In short, I really like the coal sector for the first quarter of 2013. I'm not too worried about the fiscal cliff as it's not the end of the world, and the U.S., along with most other countries, are all bankrupt together, in my opinion. New rules and ideas will be implemented and life and business will continue.
I am expecting stocks to continue sideways or higher into May at which time a serious correction could take place. But not to worry as we take things one week at time. I will be adjusting my outlook accordingly.
