Choosing discount office furniture to decorate your office is definitely a great idea. However, you don't want to just go with any kind of furniture for the office. There are actually many things that should be taken into consideration when it comes to purchasing the right furniture for your office. So, if this is the type of furniture you are going to choose for your office, here are a few tips that will help you to make sure you make the right choice.
Look for Comfort
First of all, when you are purchasing your discount office furniture, it is so important that you look for comfort. The last thing you want is furniture for your office that is uncomfortable, no matter how much money you save on it. You want to make sure that you are going to be comfortable in the furniture and that your employees and customers are also comfortable as well. So, before you make the final purchase, ensure that the furniture that you are purchasing is going to be very comfortable for everyone.
Visual Appeal is Important
Of course another important thing to keep in mind when you are choosing discount office furniture for the office is visual appeal. You definitely want to be sure that the furniture looks great in the office. Not only should it look great on it's own, but it should also look great with the rest of the office décor. So, take a good look at the furniture before you make the purchase to make sure that it has the visual appeal that you are looking for in your office. After all, you don't want customers to walk into the office and instantly be put off by the ugly furniture.
Does it Get the Job Done?
Another thing to consider is whether or not the furniture will be able to get the job done. If it looks great but it isn't functional, then it is not going to be a great investment, no matter how great the deal is on the furniture. Make sure that the furniture you choose is going to be function in your office. You're purchasing office furniture, not furniture for a museum.
Consider the Price
Of course last of all, the price of the discount office furniture should be taken into consideration before you make the purchase. After all, the whole point of going with the discounted furniture for your office is to save some money. So, make sure that the price is reasonable for the office furniture. Also, you may want to take a bit of time to look around to see if that is the best price that you can get. You want to be sure that you save as much money as possible.
In this uncertain financial times it is of the greatest concern to preserve your capital. When your looking to make a statement with the look of your office be sure to come to Office Doctor to review the available styles and lines of office furniture. Here you will find the office furniture that will help you make the statement that you're looking to make when your clients come to your office. You will find the office furniture that will help you tell your clientele that you are professional, successful and a leader in your field. And you will be able to do all of this at substantially economical prices since all of the office furniture you will see is On Sale Now for Half Price.

In doing so, the importance of being more integrated within the community as well as local organizations became evident. Therefore, we officially designated a member of the Holland Police Department as Community Resource Officer. The purpose of this assignment is to improve our overall community policing program and philosophy by establishing a relationship with leaders of various organizations within the community. Furthermore, to determine if those leaders desire involvement or presence from members of the police department during functions or events held for or sponsored by the organization and to determine if they desire programming, lectures or presentations on specific subject matter involving public safety and law enforcement. We have already held several presentations with both the Holland Elementary School students as well as our senior citizens, receiving very positive feedback. We hope to continue our activity with them and also hope to expand by involving other community groups and organizations. If you wish programming for your organization or if you happen to be a group of citizens with interest in particular subject matter related to public safety / law enforcement, I welcome you to contact our Community Resource Officer, Lieutenant Jeffrey Forcier by voice mail 413-245-0117 ext: 331 or email email@example.com.

I love Daniel Bryan. How much do I love Daniel Bryan? So much that one of my favorite wrestling moments ever was having that guy (still wrestling under his real name of Brian Danielson) land his taint directly on my chair at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.
It was during the final match of Danielson's "Final Countdown" tour with Ring of Honor - right before being signed to WWE and joining the roster of the inaugural season of WWE NXT. At "Glory by Honor VIII: The Final Countdown" Bryan squared off against another one of my ROH favorites, Nigel McGuinness, who was also having his last match with the company before joining a larger promotion (in his case, TNA as Desmond Wolfe).
But yeah, back to Daniel Bryan's taint. I was fortunate enough to be seated in the third row on the floor at the event, and McGuinness had been knocked to the outside. As he groggily held himself up on the old wrestling style metal barricade, Danielson bounced off the ropes on the opposite side of the ring and dove straight at McGuinnes, knocking him over and through the barricade, with both men landing in a sweaty, bloody heap on the folding chair where I had been seated not a moment earlier.
Though I was a devoted ROH fan during that period, I was, embarrassingly, relatively late to the Brian Danielson Appreciate Society. Apparently, I had managed to catch the only two kind of lackluster matches that guy had against Takeshi Morishima, giving me a skewed perspective on Danielson's many talents.
Danielson's final match with Ring of Honor was an absolute classic, and McGuinness stayed right there with him every step of the way. If you haven't ever seen the guy's pre-Daniel-Bryan work, it's definitely worth tracking down a copy of this pay-per-view, or hell, pretty much anything else that guy did with the company.
But aside from the fact that the match was incredible, it was memorable for another very important reason. The fact that Bryan - an internet favorite 5'10" submission-based grappler - was getting signed by WWE was huge, encouraging news at a time when the company was still pushing musclebound former bodybuilders almost exclusively. Yes, people were nervous that Bryan would be misused, and for a time, he absolutely was (how anyone could ever think Bryan wasn't charismatic is completely beyond me), but since then, the wrestler has proved himself to be an indispensable part of the WWE roster.
And since that moment, WWE has begun looking more and more to the independent scene - especially the Northeast, technical, puroresu-influenced world I'm particularly fond of - signing guys like Claudio Castignoli (Antonio Caesaro), Chris Hero (Kassius Ohno), Jon Moxley (Dean Ambrose) and others, while putting their top title on another ROH Alumni, CM Punk. Even TNA has gotten in on the action, putting their version of the World Title around the waist of Austin Aries.
Wrestling is in a really fascinating, exciting place right now - if you can't find happiness in the fact that CM Punk and Austin Aries are the top champions of WWE and TNA, then I'm thinking that maybe you just don't like wrestling anymore. I love the increasing influence of the American indies on larger promotions, and am excited to see what comes next, but for me, the whole thing started with Brian Danielson's taint on my chair.

In recent years, predicting the Eastern Conference would have been much easier than predicting the balanced, consistently tougher Western Conference. However, as the Western Conference generally stayed put during the off-season, the Eastern Conference teams were much more aggressive in their pursuit to be a part of the playoff conversation.
So in a manner similar to predicting the outcome of the Western Conference, I offer my Eastern Conference predictions for the 2010-11 season. Rather than rank the projected finishes, I classify my predictions in three categories: The Ins, the Tweeners and the Outs.
The Ins:
Washington Capitals – Well they have Alexander Ovechkin and that's not a bad place to start. They also have a collection of offensive weapons surrounding Ovie in Nicklas Backstrom, Alexander Semin and Mike Green. Add to that a young tandem of young goalies in Semyon Varlamov and Michal Neuvirth, a pair of emerging young defensemen in Karl Alzner and John Carlson and you have a team who, on the surface, seems primed for the President's Trophy and a potential Stanley Cup run. However, the Caps are a team who has not experienced much success in Stanley Cup playoffs. Until they can get over the hump then the doubters will not view them as anything more than a regular season wonder.
New Jersey Devils– The Devils are similar to the Capitals in one respect: while more of an experienced team, they are also a team who recognizes regular season success but early-round failure. They were able to re-sign Ilya Kovalchuck to a massive contract extension, but not without much trepidation and uncertainty. Kovalchuck adds to an already offensively-gifted team lead by Zach Parise and Travis Zajac. The Devils also signed shot-blocking wunderkind Anton Volchekov to make future Hall of Fame netminder Martin Brodeur's goaltending life even easier. But with three consecutive first-round exits and a playoff record of 10-20 in the post-lockout era, the Devils are another team for which doubt of playoff success prevails until they prove otherwise.
Boston Bruins – The Bruins recognized the fruits of the Phil Kessel trade by drafting Tyler Seguin with the No. 2 overall pick in the NHL Entry Draft. They also acquired, Nathan Horton and Gregory Campbell via trade from Florida. David Krejci, Patrice Bergeron, and Milan Lucic comprise a solid tandem of forwards and they have the ever large and talented Zdeno Chara manning the blueline. One area to keep an eye on will be the use of the goaltending tandem of Tuukka Rask and Tim Thomas, particularly if Rask's playoff struggles were a harbinger of things to come. But the prevailing questions will be how the Bruins can recover from blowing a 3-0 series lead against the Philadelphia Flyers and whether star center Marc Savard can recover from post-concussion syndrome.
Buffalo Sabres – They have arguably the most talented goalie in the league in Ryan Miller, last year's recipient of the Vezina Trophy. They also have last year's Calder Trophy winner in defenseman Tyler Myers. The Sabres also have a balanced scoring arsenal with four 20-goal scorers lead by Thomas Vanek, an arsenal which may be enhanced by the arrival of speedy forward Tyler Ennis. However, for the Sabres to be considered a solid Stanley Cup contender, players like Vanek, Jason Pomiville and Derek Roy must provide Miller with more offensive support.
Pittsburgh Penguins – The 2008-09 Stanley Cup champion Pens were stunned by their second round exit in last season's Stanley Cup playoffs, another team that was upset by the other-worldly goaltending of Jaroslav Halak. But there were signs that a return to the finals was in doubt: A loss of role players such as Hal Gill and Ryan Malone, the puzzling mediocre mid-season, one in which the Penguins couldn't win more than two consecutive games in over a three-month span, and the return of some of goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury's issues with rebound control were key indicators of trouble. However, the Pens do possess the league's premier playmaker in Sidney Crosby and two premier centermen in Evgeni Malkin and Jordan Staal. The Pens also appeared to have addressed needs in their defensive corps with the acquisitions of and Paul Martin and Zbynek Michalek. But if Fleury can rise up in the playoffs as he did two years ago, then the Pens have a shot at winning another Cup.
Philadelphia Flyers – The Flyers went from a team who fired their coach midway through the season, to one who barely made the playoffs,to making the Stanley Cup finals and giving the Chicago Blackhawks all they could handle. All this happened without a consistent, go to goaltender. The Flyers bring both offensive firepower with centers Mike Richards, Daniel Briere and Jeff Carter as well as an extremely physical team with the likes of Chris Pronger, Daniel Carcillo and Scott Hartnell. The biggest question is whether goaltenders Michael Leighton and Brian Boucher were living a charmed playoff life or whether they will cause the team to struggle and disappoint.
Montreal Canadiens – The Habs appeared to have been on the cusp of getting back into the conversation of Stanley Cup contenders, but they puzzled the hockey world by shipping Halak for two St. Louis Blues prospects, thereby 'handing over the keys' to inconsistent goaltender Carey Price. They return forwards Mike Cammalleri and Tomas Plekanec and retain one of their strongest bluelines in recent memory with star defenseman Andrei Markov and rookie phenom P.K. Subban. But if Price's recent struggles continue and the team struggles out of the gate, this could be an interesting transition year for the Canadiens' GM Pierre Gauthier and coach Jacques Martin as expectations are always high in Quebec Province.
The Tweeners:
Tampa Bay Lightning– The Lightning's biggest moves in the off-season were made in their front office and behind their bench in hiring Steve Yzerman as team President and by landing coaching's 'Next Big Thing' in Guy Boucher. Boucher's 'pedal to the metal' system has yet to have been solved and with the likes of prolific young star Steve Stamkos, Vincent Lecavalier, Martin St. Louis and recent acquisition Simon Gagne manning their forward lines, the 'Bolts should have no trouble generating offense. The question with Tampa Bay is whether their goaltending tandem of Mike Smith and Dan Ellis is good enough to make them a serious playoff contender. But the future does indeed look bright and this could be the one team to watch for in the Eastern Conference
Ottawa Senators – The Sens had a reasonably successful 2009-10 campaign and bolstered their blueline with the free agent signing of Sergei Gonchar. They still possess two of the NHL's more prolific forwards in Daniel Alfredsson and Jason Spezza. It will be interesting, however, to see the effect of how Spezza will perform given his unhappiness with name being floated around in off-season trade speculation, as well as his coming off of a disappointing season and a mid-season MCL (knee) injury. Where the Senators may fall short this year is in the net, with oft-injured Pascal LeClaire and wildly streaky Brian Elliot manning the duties.
New York Rangers – While the Rangers narrowly missed the playoffs last season, one is hard-pressed to see how this team should even be considered for playoff consideration. Further, with the tandem of GM Glen Slather and owner James Dolan, it is surprising that fan unrest hasn't risen to unprecedented levels. The Broadway Blueshirts have never been shy about obliterating a salary cap, and while they obtained a slight break in sending Wade Redden and his $6 million plus/year contract to the AHL, GM 'Slats' Slather continued to puzzle with the $1.6 million signing of pugilist Derek Boogaard. If prolific sniper Marian Gaborik returns to his pattern of struggling to stay healthy, this could be a long season in Madison Square Garden.
Toronto Maple Leafs – You can say many things about Leafs' GM Brian Burke, but you can never accuse him of not having gumption. Burke has continued to re-shape the Leafs by building their blueline into a formidable group, particularly with last season's trade deadline deal of acquiring premier defenseman Dion Phaneuf. Burke has also assembled a physical, gritty team in the mold of his Anaheim Ducks teams with pugilist Colton Orr and the hard-hitting forward Colby Armstrong. While they did bolster their offense by acquiring Kris Versteeg, much more is needed from Kessel and the rest of the offense to make the Leafs a legitimate playoff contender.
The Outs:
New York Islanders – The Isles were a much-improved team during this past season, surprisingly hanging around the playoff chase for the majority of the regular season. While John Tavares didn't nab the Calder Trophy, he had a solid rookie season. The hope is for Tavares to make the next step in a manner similar to Stamkos' meteoric rise to NHL elite status. However, the team's fortunes were dealt a serious blow with the serious shoulder injuries to their best defenseman Mark Streit and to one of their best forwards in Kyle Okposo. Add to that the continued uncertainly as to whether Rick DiPietro will ever be healthy enough to recoup the 15-year contract investment the Islanders made in him, and you have the makings of continued struggles on The Island.
Carolina Hurricanes – To the 'Canes credit, they showed a great amount of pride in trying desperately to return to the playoffs after a horrific start and an equally horrific injury to goaltender Cam Ward. The 'Canes are a team in transition as they look to build with young players like first-round pick Jeff Skinner and Zac Dalpe. They hope for the return to good health of Eric Staal and the return of recently-departed defensemen Anton Babchuck and Joe Corvo. They will need a healthy and steady performance from Ward if they can expect to return to the playoffs in the near future.
Atlanta Thrashers – A team with so many different directions and spare parts has now added a new distinction of being named "Blackhawks South", by acquiring former Blackhawks' Dustin Byfuglien, Andrew Ladd, Ben Eager and Brent Sopel. They also brought in Rick Dudley from the Blackhawks front office in an attempt to bring stability and a forward direction to this rudderless organization. They made a very nice move in acquiring goaltender Chris Mason from the St. Louis Blues, who should be expected to challenge for the starting job as well as push young Ondrej Pavelec into becoming their franchise netminder of the future. The Thrashers are slowly building a core of young talent with recent drafts of Alex Burmistrov, Niclas Bergfors, Zach Bogosian and Evander Kane. However, the Thrashers are still a few years away from playoff contention.
Florida Panthers – Former Blackhawks GM Dale Tallon was brought in to rebuild the Panthers in the way he rebuilt the Chicago Blackhawks. However, given the eroded fan base, the current lack of offensive firepower and a drab, aged team, this second attempt at a turnaround will be a much taller order. The Panthers still depend on goaltender Tomas Vokoun to keep them in the majority of their games, while waiting for the development of successor Jacob Markstrom. The Panthers' hope of building of their blueline were dealt a blow with their inability to sign No. 1 draft pick Erik Gudbranson to a contract, as Gundbranson was expected to make the Panthers team out of training camp. This will be a long year in South Beach for the Panthers.

Performances by 20-year old Fwd Prospects in AHL (Last 10 Years)
In the post below I talked about the best prospects either graduating to the NHL without stopping at all in the minors or playing less than a full season before getting the call.
Of those players who do stay in the minors, what player type most often succeeds? How many of the truly skilled players spend a season or more in the minors, adjust their game enough to survive as a skill player, and then establish themselves as NHL players?
Over the last decade, the Oilers have had several prospects arrive at the pro level (age 20) and fail miserably in their efforts to make it to the show. Of those who did make an NHL impact, most are fringe players, enforcers or a combination of same. Here's a look at the Oilers forward prospects who played their first pro season at 20 and how their careers rolled out.
- Steve Kelly (96-97 Hamilton Bulldogs). 48gp, 9-29-38 .792ppg Kelly was a speed demon who the Oilers liked a "hair" more than Shane Doan at the draft in 1995. His pro debut wasn't Doan-like (Doan had played over 130 NHL games by the spring of 1997) but he held his value better than did Bonsignore and ended up having a better (if hugely disappointing) NHL career. Kelly's career GP stands at 147, compared to Bonsignore's 79. Kelly's 38 points in 48 games represented 28.6% of the Bulldogs offense that season.
- Jason Bonsignore (96-97 Hamilton Bulldogs). 78gp, 21-33-54 .692ppg Bonsignore's career has been well documented and his 20-year old AHL season placed in context (he was the 4th player chosen two years previous and 96-97 was the year Ryan Smyth popped 39 goals in the show) was a pretty good predictor of his future. Desjardins NHLE would have had him 11-17-28 and six months after the 96-97 season Sather offloaded him (and Steve Kelly) to the Lightning. Bonsignore's Bulldogs scored 220 goals in 96-97, so his 54 points that season represents 25% of his team's offense (adjusted for gp).
- Georges Laraque (96-97 Hamilton Bulldogs). 73gp, 14-20-34 .466ppg Laraque is the only one of the three 20-year old AHL prospects in 96-97 to become an NHL player and contribute to his team's wins. Laraque's ppg total in the AHL indicated he was marginal offensively (plus it's extremely unlikely he saw the PP or many skill linemates) but he was an enforcer of some quality and in that role has had a very good NHL career. Laraque has now played over 500 NHL games. His 34 points in 73gp for Hamilton that season represented 16.9% of his team's offense.
- Dan Lacouture (97-98 Hamilton Bulldogs). 77gp, 15-10-25 .325ppg Lacouture was a big kid with speed when he arrived in pro hockey. I remember him scoring a goal scorers goal against Boston (probably fall 2000) as he came in over the blueline and ripped a beauty by the goalie. Lacouture learned how to stay in the NHL after a time as a role player and although it's a stretch to say he's been a difference maker he has been able to survive for over 325 NHL games. His 25 points in 97-98 represents 10% of the Bulldogs' offense 97-98, and like Laraque he didn't likely get a lot of powerplay time.
- Michel Riesen (99-00 Hamilton Bulldogs). 73gp, 29-31-60 .822ppg Riesen's quality AHL season at 20 is somewhat misleading in that it was his second year in the league. He played well no matter the circumstance, so well that his entire line (Swanson-Riesen-Cleary) won jobs in the fall of 2000 on the big club. His 99-00 AHL season and the pre-season in fall 2000 represent the highlight of his NHL career (plus the 12 games he actually got into 00-01). His 60 points in 73gp represents 29.2% of Bulldog offense that season. He is somewhat unique on this list in that he (and Bonsignore) were on the top line as rookie pro's.
- Peter Sarno (99-00 Hamilton Bulldogs). 67gp 10-36-46 .687ppg Sarno was an interesting prospect who ended up with 7 career NHL games for two different teams (Oilers and Columbus). He gained a solid reputation as a powerplay specialist and got a couple of long looks from the Oilers. His 46 points in 99-00 represents 24% of his team's offense (no doubt helped by PP time).
- Jason Chimera (99-00 Hamilton Bulldogs). 78gp, 15-13-28 .359ppg Chimera is best known among Oilers fans as being the guy Kevin Lowe would talk up every summer as being a lock for the roster only to be sent out each fall by Craig MacTavish. To this day he rarely passes on a chance to dig at the Oilers. Chimera was a speed demon with size and an energy player as a rookie pro, and has built on that and has an NHL career. He has played almost 300 NHL games and has over 50 goals in the show. How much of a difference maker his is would be open to question but he's been able to hold a roster spot for 4 years now. His 28 points represent 12.8% of Bulldog offense.
- Jani Rita (01-02 Hamilton Bulldgos) 76gp, 25-17-42 .553ppg I thought Jani Rita would make it, swear to God. I remember at WJC goal he scored (it was real, and it was spectacular) and also saw a few AHL games in which he always looked like he was having an impact (plus he could score goals, 63 in 204 AHL games). He never made it, but that first AHL season would have to rank as one of the best on this list (and I believe Dennis will back me up on that). Rita has played in 66 NHL games, I'm still hoping he finds a career. His 42 points in 01-02 represents 17.9% of Bulldog offense.
- Jarret Stoll (02-03 Hamilton Bulldogs) 76gp, 21-33-54 .711ppg The two things I remember about Stoll in the AHL are a goal he scored maybe 5 seconds after the faceoff at center-ice and that the "shared" Habs/Oil team that year was a beauty. Stoll played with really good players and had an excellent season, which he has since built upon to become a solid NHL player. Stoll has played 205 NHL games and has scored 45 goals. His 54 points represents 20% of the Bulldog offense that season.
- Kyle Brodziak (04-05 Edmonton Roadrunners) 56gp, 6-26-32 .571 At this point we start looking at guys who have a lot of their story left to tell. Brodziak has a nice combination of size and skill. His AHL debut at 20 came on a very poor offensive team, and his 32 points reprsent 18.6% of the Roadrunner offense. Brodziak has played 16 NHL games so far.
- Marc Pouliot (05-06 Hamilton Bulldogs) 65gp, 15-30-45 .692ppg Pouliot played on a shared team (like Stoll) and put up similar offensive results. The difference was that Stoll's team was much better, and Pouliot's 45 points represents 25.2% of the Bulldogs offense. He has now played in 54 NHL games.
- Jean Francois Jacques (05-06 Hamilton Bulldogs) 65gp, 24-20-44 .677ppg Jacques had a helluva pro debut and his unique set of skills still make him an intriguing player even after the ridiculous NHL rookie season he just clocked in with in 06-07. He was an important part of the Bulldogs as a 20-year old rookie pro for all kinds of reasons, and his point total represents 24.6% of the Bulldog offense. He has played in 44 NHL games.
- Zack Stortini (05-06 Iowa/Milwaukee) 64gp, 2-8-10 .156ppg Should he make it, Stortini will definitely fall into the Laraque/Lacouture category of successful minor leaguers: enforcer/agitator 4th line player. He certainly has value and has played 29 NHL games already.
- Rob Schremp (06-07 SWB Penguins) 69gp, 17-36-53 .768ppg Schremp had a tough first year pro, getting benched a few times and was a healthy scratch a few times too. His coach did have some nice things to say about him but he's not there yet and the injury then surgery will also have an impact. His 53 points represent 22.8% of his team's total.
I think that's all of them, although with the affiliate situation lately I may have missed one or two (let me know). Anyway, these 20-year olds over a 10-year period represent the "mid-level guys", a rung below the Hemsky's and Horcoff's but a rung above those who spent time in the ECHL or didn't dress for a full season's worth of games at 20 (Tyler Spurgeon had somewhat special circumstances but I excluded him anyway).
Back to the questions I asked at the beginning:
Of those players who do stay in the minors, what player type most often succeeds? Enforcers and skill players with an idea about playing the game without the puck. One dimensional players have to be very good in order to have a career (ONE of them, Chimera, has become a player and he had to adjust his game some over several minor league seasons).
How many of the truly skilled players spend a season or more in the minors, adjust their game enough to survive as a skill player, and then establish themselves as NHL players? Not many. On our list Kelly, Bonsignore, Riesen and Sarno all failed. Riesen and Kelly put up numbers similar to Schremp (admittedly the gap in years is massive and the conditions for offense may be quite different), and although we don't have powerplay times obviously they all probably enjoyed at least some time with the man advantage. I think Chimera qualifies here as a success.
The 5 players I have in bold are the ones that made it based on my own set of requirements. You could argue Pouliot hasn't established himself yet and I'd agree but there seems to be enough evidence he'll make it. So, of the 5 players in bold, they are in three categories: enforcer/agitator, players with a wider range of skills than the rest on the board (Stoll, Pouliot) and Jason Chimera.
Of the current AHLers, Stortini would appear to quality in the enforcer/agitator category, Jacques may also qualify. I'd put Brodziak in the Stoll/Pouliot bin, and that leaves Schremp as a more-skilled Chimera. A much more skilled Chimera based on 20-year old numbers, but we don't have ATOI or powerplay times so it's an incomplete record.
One final thing: in a ten-year period, this ain't much folks. If you're 20, in the AHL and coming off a season that is in any way disappointing you're probably in trouble.

SUWANEE - A local mother was angry after her son, a Peachtree Ridge High School student, was given a Breathalyzer test without parental permission.Another student had falsely accused Carter Barron of being drunk at school. His mother, Lisa Barron, said the student was playing a prank by reporting this to administrators. Gwinnett County Public Schools spokeswoman Sloan Roach said school officials had an obligation to investigate the claim of drunkenness. The school resource officer had a Breathalyzer device, which he used to test Barron. "The Breathalyzer test was negative, so it was a quick and easy way to prove that he had not been drinking," Roach said. His mother's objection to the Breathalyzer test was that the school had not asked for her or her husband's permission before administering it. Barron did not face any disciplinary or criminal charges for drinking. However, school officials did find a cigarette lighter in his bookbag when it was searched for alcohol possession. Roach said the student was disciplined for having the lighter at school, which is against school policy.

Much of Iowa's ground is frozen, preventing snow and other precipitation from penetrating the soil, says Andy Lenssen, cropping systems agronomist with Iowa State University. And replenished soil moisture, down 5" and more, is what the state's corn ground needs following last year's severe drought.
"Pre-planting conditions are nothing like last year," says Lenssen.
In fact, subsoil moisture levels are worse than a year ago, according to Roger Elmore, Extension corn agronomist at Iowa State University. So far, the state isn't seeing the normal subsoil recharge that comes with winter and spring precipitation. That has growers across the state worried.
"At planting, we look for 10" of subsoil moisture, with 5" of it a 'savings account' for the crop," Elmore says. "When we go into spring without that 'down payment,' when we have that deficit in our soil moisture, growers are going to need more skills than normal to produce a good corn crop."
Mid-March's run-off, standing water and flooding mean the state's corn planting probably won't begin until mid to late April, the two agronomists say. While that's a normal planting start, it's later than last year, when conditions allowed some planters to hit Iowa's corn fields in March.
Iowa, which leads the nation in corn acreage, planted 14.6 million acres of the yellow-eared crop in 2012. That was up half a million acres from the year before. Hit hard by the drought, Iowa corn production fell to 1.87 billion bushels last year, down 4 million bushels from 2011.
Will Iowa corn growers match or exceed last year's acreage or production? Elmore isn't so sure.
"So far, dry conditions don't bode well for the year as a whole," the Extension agronomist says. "I expect this year's corn acreage number to be stable or even less."
Lenssen is more optimistic. "I've heard some projections that Iowa's corn acreage will be up this year," he says. "The [September 2013] price of corn is pretty good at $5.50-$5.80 a bushel, and price drives a lot of planting decisions."
Iowa's other major crop, soybeans, will begin planting once farmers get their corn well underway. The state's soybean acreage is likely to exceed last year's 8.8 million acres, Lenssen says, boosted by strong prices now in the range of $14.25 per bu. But there's another soybean acreage driver.
"We've been experiencing more resistance in corn to the Western corn rootworm," says Lenssen. "The best way to deal with that is to plant more soybeans because that crop is not a host" for the pest.

The town of Burco (also written as 'Burao'), in Somaliland, has the largest public hospital in the area and serves at least 350,000 people. Last year, Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) medical teams joined Ministry of Health staff at this eight-ward hospital to start providing high-quality, free medical services. Now, Somali staff work alongside MSF staff from as far away as China and Norway so that patients with medical emergencies receive quality health care. Trained surgeons are available 24 hours a day at Burco Hospital, whether for trauma or obstetric operations. Many patients choose to visit local healers before coming to the hospital, which can cause dangerous delays or even additional medical problems.More >

Eight courthouses in Washington reported bomb threats late Thursday afternoon. The courthouses were in Thurston, Chelan, Columbia, Benton, Adams, Douglas, Pacific and Clark counties.

The Montreal Canadiens got more bad news on the injury front on Tuesday, as head coach Jacques Martin told reporters that defenceman Marc-Andre Bergeron and winger Benoit Pouliot will be sidelined until at least March.
Bergeron will be out for six to eight weeks with a left knee injury, while Martin said that Pouliot has an 'upper body injury.'
Bergeron left the team's Feb. 4 game against the Boston Bruins after he was hit in the leg with a shot and missed the weekend's games against Pittsburgh and Boston.
Bergeron, 29, was signed as an unrestricted free agent last fall. In 51 games with the Canadiens this season, he has 10 goals and 28 points.
Pouliot, acquired from the Minnesota Wild in a trade for winger Guillaume Latendresse, has 11 goals and 14 points in 20 games with the Canadiens.

Have a Healthy Pregnancy with Asthma, Diabetes, or Epilepsy
Epilepsy is a disorder of the brain's electrical system that can lead to seizures. Many triggers can cause this abnormality including infections, head injury, brain tumors, and brain injuries at birth. Women with epilepsy face many health issues that may affect their reproductive systems and lead to osteoporosis, weight gain, and sexual dysfunction.
According to the Epilepsy Foundation, all epileptic women should be in good general health and pay close attention to their nutritional needs before and during pregnancy. This includes taking vitamins fortified with folic acid. Studies have shown that if a woman takes Vitamin B (folic acid) before conception and during the first few weeks of pregnancy, it may help reduce the risk of neural tube defects (spina bifida) in her baby. Epileptic women have a greater risk of giving birth to a baby with this birth defect, and, according to Dr. Swaamy, "it is recommended that they take 4 mg of the B vitamin daily."
Obstetricians stress that if epilepsy is kept under control, the chances for a healthy pregnancy and birth can be equivalent to those in women without a chronic condition. If a woman with epilepsy is planning on becoming pregnant, Dr. Swaamy says she should consult with her physician before conception "to determine if anti-seizure medication(s) are appropriate to take at the time of conception and during pregnancy."
The dosage of anti-seizure medication (commonly referred to as AED) that a mom-to-be might be prescribed may need to be adjusted. "A woman's metabolism changes during pregnancy, and therefore the same dosage of a medication may be inadequate to prevent seizures," says Dr. Swaamy.
Dr. Davis says preconception medical counseling is vital for women with epilepsy. "If a woman has been seizure-free for two to five years, we try to slowly tamper them off as much medication to where it may be a single dose, instead of a multi-dose."

Due to these trying economic time, the thought of a worthy 250 commuter, a workhorse, is certainly more appealing to riders than ever before. The Inazuma fills that role brilliantly.

The Vespa PX125 has essentially remained unchanged since its introduction in 1977, but it doesn't feel 35 years old.

It doesn't handle like a sportsbike - but a ...

The sports maxi-scooter that started it all. As close as you'll get to motorcycle handling in scooter form. The T-Max can tour, scratch and commute as good or better than many middleweight conventional bikes. But ABS isn't standard, it lacks the innovative features found on other maxi-scoots and the price is getting dangerously close to £9K.

There are a lot of good points about buying a maxi scooter like the SR Max. Fuel economy is one, simplicity is the other.

Techniques for archiving email
Email archiving involves more than just backing up your email directories. It is also a question of classifying the email and making it easier for users to find their way around overfilled email folders.
In the past few years, very few technology developments have been as versatile and necessary as email archiving. In fact, it ranks high on the best practices list of many corporations. Many administrators who hear the term "email archiving" for the first time think about data privacy and automatically file the term away in the category of backup. However, email archiving makes sense outside the scope of backup, if you think of it in terms of email management.

Voices: Regulatory Issues
The Supreme Court's Lesson on Labeling
In Pom Wonderful v. Coca-Cola, the court encourages 'policing' of labels by competitors.
The U.S. Supreme Court's unanimous ruling on June 12 in favor of Pom Wonderful has important implications for food processors. Until now, compliance with FDA labeling regulations generally meant a product was immune from a claim that its labeling is deceptive or misleading with respect to those aspects of the label sanctioned by FDA regulations.
This "safe harbor" has been decisively removed by the Supreme Court's ruling, which held that a plaintiff, such as Pom, may bring false advertising and unfair competition claims under federal law with respect to such statements. As a result, many food processors will need to rethink their marketing and labeling practices.
The case originated in 2008 when Pom alleged that Coca-Cola was misleading consumers about its Minute Maid "Pomegranate Blueberry" juice (with "Flavored Blend of 5 Juices" in smaller font below). Pom claimed the label was misleading because, despite the name, the product contains approximately 99 percent apple and grape juice with very little of the more expensive pomegranate and blueberry juices.
Pom sells 100 percent pomegranate juice as well juice blends containing significant amounts of pomegranate juice. From Pom's perspective, Coca-Cola was unfairly competing by selling a non-comparable product as "Pomegranate Blueberry" juice and undercutting Pom's sales. Pom's lawsuit included claims under federal statute governing false advertising and unfair competition (the Lanham Act).
Coca-Cola responded by noting that the images on its product correctly identified the five fruits in the juice blend and that the name – "Pomegranate Blueberry-flavored blend of 5 juices" – informed consumers as much while describing that the blend tastes like pomegranate and blueberry. Most significantly, Coca-Cola said the name of the product fully complied with FDA juice-naming regulations permitting a beverage to be named after a non-predominant juice in such circumstances.
The district court and appeals court accepted Coca-Cola's arguments and rejected Pom's Lanham Act claims because doing otherwise would "disturb" the "comprehensive food and beverage labeling regulations under the FDCA [federal Food Drug & Cosmetic Act] which specifically considered the naming of such juices."
But the Supreme Court unanimously sided with Pom. Rather than viewing the Lanham Act and the FDCA as conflicting, the court held that they are "complementary." "Although both statutes touch on food and beverage labeling, the Lanham Act protects commercial interests against unfair competition, while the FDCA protects public health and safety." Moreover, the FDCA's enforcement "is largely committed to the FDA" whereas the Lanham Act empowers "private parties to sue competitors to protect their interests on a case-by-case basis."
The Court then set forth the cornerstone of its ruling:
"Unlike other types of labels regulated by the FDA, such as drug labels …, it would appear the FDA does not preapprove food and beverage labels under its regulations and instead relies on enforcement actions, warning letters, and other measures. …. Because the FDA acknowledges that it does not necessarily pursue enforcement measures regarding all objectionable labels … if Lanham Act claims were to be precluded then commercial interests -- and indirectly the public at large -- could be left with less effective protection in the food and beverage labeling realm than in many other, less regulated industries."
In other words, the court saw no reason why aspects of a food label should be free from "policing" by competitors simply because those aspects are subject to FDA regulations. Indeed, the court found that even if an aspect of a label is specifically required or authorized by the FDCA or FDA regulations, it may be subject to a Lanham Act claim because the FDCA and its regulations are not a "ceiling on the regulation of food and beverage labeling."
For food companies, the ruling obviously opens the door to lawsuits by competitors alleging that aspects of a label regulated by the FDA are false and misleading. The biggest impact pertains to products similar to the Minute Maid juice blend that include a name or front-of-package claim that may comply with FDA regulations but help it compete against more expensive products.
In such circumstances, companies selling the more expensive products have a motive to bring suit if they have an argument as to why this competition is "unfair." For example, a company selling "strawberry" fruit snacks primarily made from strawberries might take offense to cheaper "strawberry" fruit snacks made with less expensive fruit and other ingredients.
Accordingly, food companies should immediately re-evaluate their labeling practices to assess whether any product might be susceptible to a competitor's claim that a label is false or misleading based, in whole or in part, on aspects of the label regulated by the FDA. Although most food processors do an excellent job of complying with FDA labeling requirements, they sometimes fail to fully assess the market risks of combining those approved statements with other marketing statements and imagery on the product.
In this case, the Minute Maid product included the statement "Nourish Your Brain" along with large images of a pomegranate and blueberries. These aspects increased the risk that Pom would view this label, in combination with the name "Pomegranate Blueberry," as deceptive to consumers. Simply put, food labels should be reviewed as a whole and with knowledge that mere compliance with FDA regulations does not provide any insurance against competitor lawsuits.

Meet Caleb... a 2-year-old who considers the alphabet child's play...
"Only God knows where he got the brain from," said Rosita Baptiste, Caleb's mother.
"The doctor said when he was just 14 he's going to be in college," said Matthew Baptiste, Caleb's father.
"I thought I was smart, but man, that guy's something else," said Dr. Akin, Caleb's pediatrician.
A-B-C... definitely easy as 1-2-3 for Caleb... who reads, writes and speaks three different languages... English, Spanish and Indonesian.
Caleb's parents... Rosita and Matthew... struggled 10 out of their 12 years of marriage to have a baby... but along came this bouncing bundle of knowledge.
"He comes to me and says things that I don't understand what he means so I have to learn. I have no choice," said Matthew.
"I have to tell him the book, going to sleep, so you have to go to sleep. If not, he will keep reading, keep asking me 'Mommy, what is this? What is this?' You know what, I want to sleep," said Rosita.
This spellbinding toddler... can't resist a good read.
Forget Dr. Seuss... how about studying to become a real doctor???
A page-turner on human anatomy has become caleb's favorite book.
Rosita says she first noticed Caleb's brain power when he became fixated on educational DVDs as an infant.
"He can stay up in front of the TV hours and hours...3-months-old...and even he, he couldn't even sit yet," said Rosita.
Caleb's pediatrician... Dr. Akin... says in his 18 years of practice... he's never met a child like Caleb.
While most 2-year-olds can only recognize letters... doctor akin believes Caleb can actually read because of a rare, intellectual gift... not because of a talent to memorize.
"As far as I can see, it's definitely something more like a gift, but if you really want to push it further, I'm sure there's some stimulation that needs to be done. I'm sure the parents must have been actually observant to pick this up," said Dr. Akin.
These parents... who watched their son take his first steps at 9-months... say they want to keep him normal while fostering his obvious talents.
"He goes to daycare everyday from 8 to 11:30 just to have him play with kids his age and even the teachers say he shouldn't even be there because Caleb goes to all the books and stuff there and then he gets bored after that," said Matthew.
Although the White House doesn't seem out of Caleb's reach... his parents say they have one main goal in mind for his future.
"Just let him be happy. My only concern is that I know outside is kind of cruel. He's too friendly. So I don't want to turn my back and somebody take him. That's my main concern," said Matthew.
Caleb's mother has spoken to him in Indonesian since birth.
He's picked up the Spanish in day care.
As the next step... Dr. Akin advises these parents to take their gifted son to a psychologist for an IQ test.
