It's use in a headline or story denotes journalistic laziness or an anti-gun agenda. Or both.
"KABUL - AP Heavily armed Taliban gunmen stormed…"
"Eight purported cartel gunmen were killed…"
"…the dead were pro-regime gunmen."
And…it's not just the lib media that's guilty:
"Fox News - 2 days ago - A French police official says that a gunman who had taken four people hostage…"
It's pervasive and the use of the term seems to have become more prolific recently.
Keep in mind that the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty conference is coming up in NYC in July. I just have to wonder if there is any correlation?
In an editorial titled "Gun group can move on now," the Canton Repository recently criticized OFCC for trying to keep Ohio's concealed carry notification law at the forefront of the discussion surrounding Daniel Harless.
"Cantonians don't need any help figuring out what's important to them," stated the Rep's editorial. "What residents of Canton are talking about is whether Patrolman Daniel Harless belongs on the street, and what should happen to him when an internal affairs investigation wraps up. What Cantonians aren't talking about so much is Ohio's concealed-carry law."

Grilled Honey-Mustard Pork Tenderloin
MotorcycleCook Posted: 05/10/09
joyfullytired Posted: 06/24/09
The marinade was easy and tasted wonderful. I used it for two 2 lb tenderloins in a ziploc bag, and didn't need to double it. The timing was way off. At 8 minutes per side on direct heat of 350 it was getting burnt on outside and still raw on inside. Took more like 11 minutes per side, and should have been indirect heat for a more even grill. I will make it again though.
MKHaynes Posted: 06/22/09
Really easy, excellent flavor and the meat was so tender!! This recipe is a keeper!
MamaHuggz Posted: 04/25/09
Kids loved it... I just think next time I'll double the marinade mixture and reserve some as a sauce.
TiffNH Posted: 01/31/10
My family, even the pickiest eater, raved about this! I used boneless pork chops and spicy brown mustard. I'll definitely make this again!
SammyDee Posted: 01/12/11
Quite simply the BEST grilled pork recipe out there --- this is absolutely delicious!
marpen09 Posted: 03/19/12
This was tasty and I made it again, but I would definitely suggest turning the flame to low after you preheat the grill. The first time I made this, the pork was black on the outside and raw on the inside.
thisisbridgit Posted: 07/06/14
Very easy marinade and so flavorful ! Instead of grilling, I have oven baked the tenderloin according to package directions/cooking temperature but it turns out perfect and tender every time.

Paradise Found: Kalanggaman Island
Posted by August 23, 2011on
When I first learned that Kalanggaman Island is part of our 6-day PHILTOA Media Familiarization Tour in Eastern Visayas, I really got excited.
Technically speaking, Kalanggaman is not an island, but is just an Islet. it is still under the jurisdiction of the Municipality of Palompon in the Province of Leyte.
From Tacloban City, Palompon is appoximately 2 hours by public transport, and from Palompon you take a 45 minute chartered pump boat to the island for 45 minutes.
So on the 4th day of our Familiarization Trip, we got ourselves early and headed towards the town of Palompon. We first visited the Tourism office where the friendly tourism officers gave us an update of what's happening in the tourism sector of Palompon. They also gave us a brief background of Kalanggaman Island as well as other must-visit places in Palompon.
From the office we then headed straight to the pier where our pump boat is waiting for us. While we were making our way towards the island, several dolphins made its presence felt by jumping out of the sea.
A few minutes later, and we arrived in kalanggaman Island. Oh gosh! It's so beautiful! Kalanggaman Island is divine!
You'd run out of words to describe how beautiful the island is. German tourists would probably need a lot of German Translation to describe its pristine state. The island got its name from the Cebuano word langgam meaning bird. As many claims that the island is said to be shaped like a bird. I have to see this in the map myself.
The long stretch of white sand is just perfect. And the fact that there's no infrastructure, nor commercial establishments, or accommodations in the island, makes it even more attractive!
It is very pristine.The water is pleasantly cool even on a hot day.
And because there are no food outlets here, you sure have to bring your own food, water and booze when you visit.
Kalanggaman Island is actually a popular diving spot for tourists who come to Malapascua Island in Cebu. Most of the Dive shops there would offer dive here since the ares is just near Malapascua.
The whole island of Kalanggaman is pretty small, actually. The whole land area is only7 hectares big. There are tourist police station at the island ready to assist those in need.
When we were in Kalanggaman Island, I had the chance to snorkel for a bit. After we had our hearty lunch, we went back to Palompon and just like what we experienced earlier, several dolphins showed up again.
Aside from Kalanggaman Island, the town of Palompon also boats its other Eco-Tourism Project: The Tabuk Marine Park Fish and
Bird Sanctuary.
The sanctuary is located just 300 meters from the mainland and is 72 hectares big. Ideal activities in the area are bird watching, snorkeling, scuba diving, and marine safari. This is a perfect place for people who want to learn about ecological diversity. Perfect for school field trips!
The whole area of Tabuk islet is covered with lush mangrove trees with bats and birds flying everywhere.
The Tabuk sanctuary and Kalanggaman Island are just two of my recent discoveries that I am planning to visit again soon! These two will be available as tour packages at the upcoming 22nd Philippine Travel Mart in SMX Convention Center in Mall of Asia, September 2-4 2011
Experience the white sandy beaches of Kalanggaman Island via AirPhil Express! AirPhil Express now flies daily from Manila to Tacloban using the Airbus320 aircraft. To book, just log on to their website

Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert Divorce: He Wants the Liquor, She Wants the 'Baby'
Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert are happily married, but the tabloids haven't accepted that so the country couple is having fun with the divorce rumors.
Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert are happily married, but the tabloids haven't accepted that so the country couple is having fun with the divorce rumors.
Miranda Lambert has a unique approach to keeping baby fever at bay!
Miranda Lambert may be the reigning Female Vocalist of the Year, but that doesn't mean she's forgotten her good manners -- at least not for longer than a minute!
George Strait and Miranda Lambert honored Crystal Milestone Award winner Merle Haggard with 'I'm a Lonesome Fugitive' at the 2014 ACM Awards.
George Strait is a legend in country music, and now he's the 2014 ACM Entertainer of the Year.
Miranda Lambert snagged the 2014 ACM Award for Single Record of the Year with her hit 'Mama's Broken Heart.'
Most ACM Awards hosts would probably hope for good reviews on the Monday morning following the show, but not Blake Shelton. Shelton hopes he and co-host Luke Bryan get nothing but bad reviews following their return to the MGM Grand's Garden Arena stage.
A win in the Entertainer of the Year category at the 2014 ACM Awards would solidify Miranda Lambert as one of the all-time great female vocalists. She's got a great batting average at the last three Academy of Country Music Awards, pocketing 10 of the 13 awards she was nominated for. The big honor has alluded her so far, however.
When you're a superstar, your personal life gets pushed into the spotlight almost as much as your career. Mix that with marrying a fellow famous face and you have the life of Miranda Lambert and husband Blake Shelton, whose marriage is constantly being put on blast -- often in a negative life.
When George Strait took the stage for a final show in Music City on Friday night (March 21), he proved that the cowboy won't ride away quietly -- the King of Country is going out with a bang.
The lineup for the 2014 CMA Music Festival has been announced, and as expected, a slew of big artists are slated to perform during the event.
Country fans, get ready. Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton are getting ready to co-host the 2014 ACMs, and judging from these new promos, it's going to be a knee-slapping kind of night.

Wal-Mart Case Study posted by Shawn Carlson 8/29/2004
back to Articles
Update 8/27/2007: I have noticed a lot of people find my site by searching for these Case Studies (mostly Wal-Mart and jetBlue). With school starting, I realize they will become more of a resource than ever. To make it more of a resource, and to possibly receive critiques (time permitting) please send me what case studies you have. I will add them to my site, creditting them to you, of course, and allow others to access them. This way it can become much more of an academic resource. Please, of course, include all references, noting that anything copied/stolen will not be posted. Thanks for your help! Just email them to me.
1. a. Corporate Strategy
Before analyzing Wal-Mart's corporate strategy, it is important to decide what business it is in. For example, if Wal-Mart is in the business of selling consumer goods such as TV's, sheets, clothes, etc then it is pursuing a concentric strategy by entering the food business. However, this changes depending on how you analyze what business Wal-Mart is in. Wal-Mart is in the business of selling everything customers need in their everyday lives. This includes the consumer goods listed above as well as food-service items. Even still, Wal-Mart pursues multiple strategies. Concerning concentration, Wal-Mart continually finds more consumer goods to sell at its stores which can take money from competitors. Additionally, when Wal-Mart entered into the food market, it quickly consolidated and held to good, saleable products. Wal-Mart never forays too far into a market and only sells what will make it a profit.
Recently, Wal-Mart has pursued a conglomerate strategy by starting to sell used cars at some of its stores in Buffalo, New York[1]. Selling cars is an entirely different industry than selling consumer goods. Additionally, it requires a whole new set of expertise that does not come easily. As far as future plans are concerned, Wal-Mart should abandon this strategy and stick to what they do best.
Lastly, an argument can be made that Wal-Mart is also pursuing a vertical integration strategy. Wal-Mart has developed its own name brand to sell products called Sam's Choice. This puts Wal-Mart into the business of making things like soda, cereal, and dog food. While they still don't grow their own crops or raise their own livestock, it is still a form of vertical integration. Also, Wal-Mart works heavily with its suppliers. This symbiotic relationship can be see as vertical integration due to the level at which Wal-Mart analyzes its suppliers and improves their manufacturing processes, etc.
b. Business Strategy
Wal-Mart definitely has the business strategy of Low Cost Leadership. They do nothing to really differentiate themselves from competitors and provide no-frills self-service stores that always provide the lowest prices. Wal-Mart has built enough clout with suppliers that they can dictate the prices and go in and change suppliers manufacturing processes in order to wring out more and more savings for the consumer. Everything that Wal-Mart does from calling suppliers collect to having execs double up in hotel rooms, is to save the customer money. While they do try to provide good customer service on top of low prices, Wal-Mart's strength is low-prices. No one has such a supplier and distribution network like Wal-Mart that allows such low prices.
Porter's 5 forces:
One aspect of Wal-Mart that sets them apart from other corporations is how they manage their relationship with their suppliers. We have determined that Wal-Mart is such a dominant force and has become such an important account for their suppliers that they have managed to eliminate Supplier Power. By eliminating Supplier Power, Wal-Mart can pursue achieving their goals and concentrate purely on their Cost Leadership Strategy, which serves the consumer with "Everyday low prices." However, the fact that Wal-Mart is able to disregard Supplier Power begs the question of where exactly does Wal-Mart derive its power? Additionally, if Wal-Mart has nearly eliminated Supplier Power, then what kind of relationship do they have with their suppliers?
Wal-Mart's power is derived from their size and the influence that comes with it. A quick look at Wal-Mart's numbers is the proof of Wal-Mart's size and power. Some of Wal-Mart's numbers include 23% of Clorox's sales and 20% of Revlon and RJR Tobacco's sales.[2] If these companies choose to walk away from their supplier relationship with Wal-Mart, then they would lose out on nearly a quarter of their revenue. The fact of the matter is that this same concept extends to all of Wal-Mart's other suppliers like Kraft, Proctor & Gamble, Gillette, Campbell's Soup, and many more.[3] The reality that these suppliers live in is one where they know that their Wal-Mart account is one that they cannot afford to lose. In fact, suppliers are also faced to look at the predictions that, in an estimated five years, Wal-Mart will double in size, which mean Wal-Mart's account with only continue to grow.
Since Wal-Mart has effectively eliminated Supplier Power, it is also important to consider the state of their relationship with suppliers. In many ways, Wal-Mart has changed the dynamic of the supplier and buyer relationship. Joe Galli, Newell CEO, was quoted as saying, "The days of price increase are over."[4] Often times, Wal-Mart will tell their suppliers upfront what they will and will not pay for a good.[5] However, despite the fact that Wal-Mart has removed the possibility for supplier price increase, their suppliers generally feel one of two ways about Wal-Mart. The first supplier sentiment is serving a client like Wal-Mart forces a company to become more efficient.[6] Many suppliers feel that doing business with Wal-Mart is the equivalent of entering a corporate basic training exercise. Robin Prever, who was CEO of Saratoga Beverage Group, was quoted as saying that this relationship with Wal-Mart, "… wakes everybody up. And all our customers benefited. We changed our whole approach to doing business."[7] The second sentiment of suppliers is that Wal-Mart is the big brother who likes to push them around. In some instances when suppliers have attempted to raise prices, Wal-Mart has either denied their request or they also been known to pay the same previous amount to their supplier with no questions asked.[8] An example of this situation is Wal-Mart's relationship with Vlasic, who was "forced" by Wal-Mart to sell pickles in gallon containers for under $3.00 a jar. Making only pennies a jar and watching their supply of pickles dwindle, Vlasic attempted to negotiate a price increase for their product with Wal-Mart and was denied causing a loss of millions of dollars for Vlasic.[9]
In this regard, if their suppliers feel cheated, does it really affect Wal-Mart in the end since suppliers cannot afford to lose their business? The answer is yes because, "suppliers can affect manufacturing time, product quality, and inventory levels." All of these aspects of supply can shape Wal-Mart's ability to effectively restock their shelves for their inventory turnover.[10] In addition, if Wal-Mart pursued avenues that would seriously undercut their suppliers, then they face a variety of possible repercussions. For instance, if suppliers became unable to take care of their workforces, then Wal-Mart could see significant drops in their product inventories. Therefore, even though suppliers do not have power in regards to their relationship with Wal-Mart, it is still important for Wal-Mart to maintain relations with their 21,000 suppliers because suppliers are the key to Wal-Mart achieving its goals and strategy.
3. McKinsey 7S model
When analyzing the business of Wal-Mart, they actually employ all three of the "hard S's" in their pursuit of their goals: Strategy, Systems, and Structure. Their strength in all three of these S's is probably a big reason why they have been so successful.
As discussed with the business strategy, Wal-Mart's overall strategy is to always provide the lowest prices. Additionally, they aim to have a store which provides convenience by allowing consumers to find everything they need under one roof. This strategy of convenience with low prices has driven Wal-Mart to be the business leader that it is. Additionally, they plan to continue to expand into markets not yet penetrated by major chains, and some markets that are already saturated, such as New England and California. This strategy has infiltrated the entire company so that in encompasses all the other S's. The other two hard S's, systems and structure, support this strategy. Also, low prices everyday has become the style and shared values of Wal-Mart. Even the staff is completely committed to providing the lowest possible prices. The skills of workers are also geared to finding inefficiencies and towards decreasing prices. The low-cost strategy has driven Wal-Mart to do things such as call suppliers collect, do away with manufacturer representatives at sales meetings, do away with regional offices, etc.
Wal-Mart has in place a set of systems that helps it achieve its strategy of low prices everyday. The largest and most profitable of these systems is the Information Technology system. Wal-Mart has employed computers, networking, and the internet to reduce inventories and waste, and speed deliveries. Wal-Mart can connect to their suppliers and transmit them data so they know what Wal-Mart needs and when. This is similar to the "just in time" production that Harley Davidson uses to hold down its inventories. The lower inventories allow Wal-Mart to produce inventory turnover rates of around 70% which is really high. Additionally, Wal-Mart has worked with suppliers in order to improve their efficiencies in production which they then pass to Wal-Mart and then to the consumer. All this works to reduce cost. Because of Wal-Mart's strategy, these reduced costs due to systems allow Wal-Mart to reduce consumer's prices. Wal-Mart has streamlined the supply system so well that it would be very hard to find any inefficiencies and would be hard for any competitor to beat. Additionally, Wal-Mart has a very efficient human resource system set-up that has both mostly kept employees happy, and resisted unionization. Wal-Mart is the largest private employer and has developed systems to tie raises and bonuses to performance. This encourages employees to think of the company and to always do their best. System processes such as working with suppliers ties in with skills since being able to analyze supplier production processes is a skill that is learned and retained by Wal-Mart.
Wal-Mart also employs a good structure that works with the systems to empower the low price strategy. Wal-Mart has planned warehouses and integrated them with systems in order to achieve "cross-docking" so that supplies coming in never touch the warehouse floor before going out to stores, which greatly reduces inventory cost. Additionally, they place their warehouses strategically so that one warehouse can serve many stores. They have developed time schedules so that one truck can service many stores and that after a delivery the truck can take back returned goods to the warehouse. The supercenter design itself is a structural advantage and strategy that Wal-Mart uses. This design allows consumers to come to a single Wal-Mart store to find everything they need from groceries to gifts to clothes to toys. Wal-Mart has designed an efficient management structure that allows it to eliminate the regional office. Everything for Wal-Mart is planned and operated in their home of Bentonville, AR. This structure alone has saved Wal-Mart millions of dollars a year. When Wal-Mart places stores in strategic locations and drives traffic using convenience and then combines the sales with its systems and structure, you get a highly efficient and well-oiled corporation that can cut costs to a bare-minimum which are then passed along to the consumer, hence fulfilling the strategy. If Wal-Mart continues to dominate these three S's, it will continue to dominate the retail market.
Wal-Mart's success in Human Resource Management is keeping their workforce of 1.3 million from unionizing, while adding to it and pursuing other HR activities to further Wal-Mart's success. Wal-Mart would not have been able to expand and have the same level of success without hiring and taking care of quality employees. Some of Wal-Mart's human resource activities include employee advancement, employee recruitment on college universities, and employee training and development. Additionally, while most firms have slowed down their hiring of new employees, Wal-Mart has sought out new ways to attract employees to compensate for their further expansion over the next five years.[11]
Looking at Wal-Mart's Human Resource Management, one of the most important aspects is Wal-Mart's employee advancement program. Currently, 65% of the company's managers began working hourly jobs, such as cashiers.[12] Wal-Mart has taken great efforts to ensure that there are opportunities for their employees to rise up through the ranks so to speak. This availability of opportunities to advance past low-paying hourly wage jobs undoubtedly is part of the reason that Wal-Mart was voted as one of Fortune magazine's most admired companies and was distinguished as one of the best companies to work for in the U.S.[13]
In the realm of employee recruitment and employee training and development, Wal-Mart has targeted college students to add to their workforce. Wal-Mart achieves this recruitment by fanning out over 80 college campuses.[14] While they are at these colleges, they are also able to expand their demographics by looking at minority fraternities and sororities, which brings all types of people from different backgrounds, races, and genders together in the Wal-Mart family. Having a wide variety demographic for a workforce, only serves to attract more people to seek employment with Wal-Mart because they are able to show that they have a very open hiring process. Beyond this recruitment, Wal-Mart has taken an additional step with college students by offering management training for college students while they are still in school so they are more developed and prepared upon their graduation.[15] This program serves the purpose of making college students consider careers with Wal-Mart, and over the last two years, the program has had immense success.
The results of these Human Resource activities speak for themselves. Wal-Mart has achieved a very good retention rate for their employees, and the proof of this is their focus on adding to their workforce over the next five years by hiring 800,000 new employees bringing the total over two million.[16] Despite the reports that Wal-Mart's employees are underpaid and not given benefits, Wal-Mart has not wavered. Employees, as much as 60%, have gone on record saying that they stay with Wal-Mart because the benefits allow them to take care of their families.[17] If employees were unhappy and leaving at a considerable rate, then the focus would be on filling these open spaces rather than expanding their workforce.
5. Wal-Mart's future:
As Wal-Mart continues to grow and expand, they should continue looking into new product markets. The next opportunity that Wal-Mart should seek to incorporate into their stores is the sale of musical instruments. Specifically, Wal-Mart should look into the sale of guitars and other band equipment. This product market is a viable area for Wal-Mart to consider because they have already involved themselves in the music industry.
Wal-Mart is responsible for 14% of music sales worldwide, and they have also jumped on the online music bandwagon by selling MP3's on their website for $.88 a song.[18] They can bring a completely new aspect of music to their consumers by selling quality musical instruments, such as Fender electric and acoustic guitars, amplifiers, drum equipment, etc. Fender is one of the biggest players in this industry being the largest supplier of solid body electric guitars. Last year, Fender made an estimated $256 million dollars of sales with a workforce of 1,800 employees.[19] The musical instrument industry is one that is growing because of increased consumer interest. Another company that has found a great deal of success is Yamaha, which is the nation's largest maker of musical instruments. Yamaha made an estimated $822 million of sales last year.[20] These companies like Fender, Gibson, and Yamaha work mainly through dealers. Whether through online sites, such as guitarplayer.com or through actual dealer stores like Sam Ash, these dealers specialize only in selling musical instruments.
If Wal-Mart could come to an arrangement with a company like Yamaha or Fender, it would add a whole other level for musical instrument sales. Wal-Mart could offer a variety of products with a variety or price ranges that will attract experienced musicians and beginners alike. People that have never previously thought about buying a nice beginner guitar could now have the option to purchase a Fender or Yamaha guitar at a Wal-Mart everyday low price. One question that might come to mind is why wouldn't a customer seek out a dealer if they wanted to purchase a musical instrument? One potential answer to this question is that often times dealers are not nearly as accessible as a Wal-Mart. Also, dealers can raise prices and sell an overpriced product to an unsuspecting new musician. Dealers have the luxury of overpricing their products because it is the only source of revenue and there is very little competition from other dealers in a single geographic area. However, if a consumer were to see musical instruments and equipment for sale in a Wal-Mart, they could feel comfortable that those products meet Wal-Mart's Cost-Leadership Strategy of "Everyday Low Prices." The bottom line for Wal-Mart is that there is definite potential in this product market, provided that they could find a way to enter the market effectively and stay true to their values while supplying their 3,000 plus stores with musical instruments.
In addition to adding products to its stores like musical instruments, Wal-Mart needs to carefully plan further expansion. While most of the US market is already saturated with regular and super Wal-Mart's, there is still room to expand. Wal-Mart still has a lot of room to grow in both New England and in California. However, they need to be careful about doing this so as to not overextend themselves. If they were to do so, it could send ripples throughout the company, causing them to raise prices and destroy what they have built. Based on personal observations from having lived up there, New England is very sensitive about outsiders coming in, especially when it is a large chain. Most of the restaurants and stores are either owned or operated locally, and are rather small. Most convenience store "chains" only have one or two stores. Additionally, people like feeling close and maintaining the "ambiance."[21] Therefore, Wal-Mart needs to expand slowly into New England so that people can get used to it, just like they have gotten used to large-chain Dunkin' Donuts. Also, they need to alter their store strategy and consider opening smaller stores that would fit into the ubiquitous small New England town. When expanding into California, they again need to take it slow. There have been a lot of complaints in California about zoning for Wal-Marts[22]. Wal-Mart needs to penetrate the market slowly and do more to help the community in order to prevent backlash.
Finally, Wal-Mart needs to expand further into international markets. Once again the key word is caution since not many countries operate like the United States and Wal-Mart will have a steep learning curve. Wal-Mart should consider pairing up with existing companies when it is possible. This is because they will receive built-in experience and an existing structure. They can then take these companies and Wal-Mart-ize them like they did in Canada. Additionally, they should build only a couple stores in a new country until their staff has learned enough about the idiosyncrasies of the country they're in. Once they learn about a new country, they'll be able to leverage their strengths to deliver low prices everyday.
Extra Credit
Luckily one of Jonathan's best friends back home works for a Wal-Mart, as does his father. His dad has been employed at Wal-Mart since my friend was born over 20 years ago. While we didn't actually travel to a Wal-Mart to talk to an associate, we feel that gained the knowledge necessary to make a recommendation based on the Job Design Model based on the conversation with Marc's (Jonathan's friend) dad, who is an assistant store manager. We first asked Marc's dad if he was happy working at Wal-Mart after all of these years. He replied by saying that Wal-Mart has enabled him to seek out promotions over the years, but most importantly, it has given him a means to take care of his family. The next question was after all these years if he still looks forward to going to work in the morning or if it has become a boring routine. He said that it is hard not to get bored going to the same place and doing the same type of work but he said he likes the people that he works with so that eases the boredom of being at work. Based on these couple answers, we think that his store should consider combining people into work teams because it would increase interaction and possibly ease some of the monotony of a normal workday. Marc's dad could pursue this on many levels of his store's operations. For instance, have a work team that rotates to different jobs during the day, sales people moving around to different departments (electronics moving over to athletic equipment). Teams of two or three people could work together, so that there is constant interaction between employees over the course of the day. This could possibly help employees forget about doing the same type of job everyday because their colleagues are with them all day to take their mind off of it.

SAMHSA's Rapid HIV Testing Initiative (RHTI)
(October 1, 2004 -September 30, 2007)
Fact Sheet
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) will be implementing a Rapid HIV Testing Initiative (RHTI) during fiscal year 2005. In view of the disproportionate HIV/AIDS incidence and prevalence rates across minority communities, the RHTI is designed to reduce HIV incidence rates among minority populations who may be at an even greater risk for acquiring or transmitting HIV associated with substance abuse and/or a mental health disorder.
Since the epidemic began in 1981, minority populations account for 57 percent of the reported AIDS cases. Injection drug use (IDU) continues to play a major role in HIV transmission among minority populations; the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that IDU among African Americans and Hispanics accounts for over one-third (36 percent) of all AIDS cases.
Notwithstanding, between 1981-2002, CDC estimated 850,000 to 950,000 U.S. residents were infected with HIV. It was estimated that one-quarter of them are unaware of their HIV status (CDC, 2002). CDC further reported that 9,300 individuals out of an estimated 30,000 who test positive for HIV each year at publicly funded sites do not return for their results.
In response, the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) recently directed $4.8 million to SAMHSA to make a bulk purchase of rapid HIV test kits and train SAMHSA's eligible service providers.
SAMHSA has since secured a federal contract with OraSure Technologies to supply rapid HIV test kits at no cost to eligible service providers. These rapid HIV test kits were recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration and waived under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment of 1988 (CLIA) for use in non-clinical settings.
To ensure proficiency in the rapid HIV testing methodology, SAMHSA will provide access to training, including travel, to eligible service providers. The fundamentals of rapid HIV testing, prevention counseling, and related data collection activities will be covered.
With increased access to SAMHSA's new rapid HIV testing methodology through its program sites, more high-risk minority populations can be identified and screened. These populations will subsequently benefit from effective counseling, treatment, and other supportive services.
The goals of SAMHSA's RHTI are:
Target Populations
Targeted populations include persons with a substance use (e.g., injection drug users) and/or mental health disorder, men who have sex with men, at-risk college students, sex workers, at-risk pregnant women, reentry populations, and transgender populations.
Eligibility Criteria
Phase I/II Sites MUST:
Eligible Sites
SAMHSA will implement the RHTI in two sequential phases.
Phase I is comprised of SAMHSA's service providers who are equipped to meet SAMHSA's readiness requirements in Year 1:
Phase II is comprised of SAMHSA's service providers and service providers from other federal grant programs who will be equipped to meet SAMHSA's readiness requirements in Year 2:
SAMHSA's Readiness Requirements (Mandatory)
To obtain SAMHSA's free rapid HIV test kits, control kits, confirmatory kits, and confirmation laboratory services, eligible service providers are required to meet the following readiness requirements:

Iran's banks blocked from global banking system from today
The move will isolate Iran economically by making it almost not possible for funds to flow in and out of the country through official banking channels.
It will strike its oil market, but could also have a weighty affect on Iranians who live overseas and ship income property.
The move follows EU sanctions in opposition to Iran over its nuclear programme.
The US and its allies accuse Iran of attempting to develop nuclear weapons - a cost it denies.
Sanctions specialist Mehrdad Emadi: "Shedding Swift amenities is equal to not obtaining travel documents for a company man or woman"
Iran last week agreed to maintain talks with six key entire world powers over its nuclear programme, although no date or venue has been set.
Nearly all banking transactions move via Belgium-based Swift, the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication, which is at times named the "glue" that holds the economic system jointly.
Swift will pull the plug at 1600 GMT on Saturday, in what is all but the closing blow to Iranian enterprise dealings.

The Most Comma Mistakes
Grammatically, there are various ways of describing what's going on. One helpful set of terms is essential vs. nonessential. When the identifier makes sense in the sentence by itself, then the name is nonessential and you use a comma before it. Otherwise, no comma. That explains an exception to the only-thing-in-the-world rule: when the words "a," "an" or "some," or a number, come before the description or identification of a name, use a comma.

I read your Rivalry article and was surprised to find no mention of the great 1989 rivalry between Sunday Silence and Easy Goer, which included all three Triple Crown races and the Breeders Cup Classic. Surely, this neck and neck cometition compares favorably with any throroughbred rivalry in racing history. I suggest you watch all three races and judge for yourself.

I will most certainly check out video. I am only mildly familiar with those two. I spent a lot of time in the past three months on Affirmed and Alydar, thus my scope was limited. As I said, I will find replays dealing with them.
I'm bummed the stories weren't put online. I didn't even think they made it to print today. Apparently they did.

Try MidwayUSA? I get my PT92f mags there
WCU Rugby!
Lucky Taurus Owner... 3 out of 3! PT1911/ PT92F/ 44 Raging Bull
Thank you for all your responses. Everywhere that I checked they say that they are out of stock. (even my local dealer,turned out i bought the last one three weeks ago) So I ordered the 15 round P99 mag. From my research it's suppose to be able to fit my gun, not to mention i get 2 more rounds in rather than 13 rounds that's in my factory mags but i still would like to have a source for the factory blued 13 round mag for my PT92C and once again thank you for responses so far.
It's way BIG $$$$ but Magazine and Clips - TAURUS MOD PT92 COMPACT PRE-BAN 12-RD MAGAZINE,9MM - Auction: 5516984 (Ends 03/12/2010, 20:20:23 PST)
Thanks grey very helpfull
ok, so the "c" stands for compact. i was thinking it was a regular pt92 model.
the 99 is the same as the 92, the only difference are adjustable sights on the 99. newer mags hold 17 rnds, but the old hi-caps for the 92 and 99 were 15 rnd. im thinking that the 15 rnd ones you found are going to be too long for your compact grip.

Indiana played a November football game with Big Ten title implications. But just when IU had some first-time momentum under coach Kevin Wilson, Wisconsin provided an embarrassing reality check. A 62-14 Badgers win shows the Hoosiers football program still has a long way to go.
It was a beautiful afternoon to take a stroll through Bloomington. That's exactly what Wisconsin did. The Badgers strolled right through the Hoosiers defense for a school-record 564 yards rushing.
"It's not good," said IU senior Larry Black, who made just one tackle in his final home game. "You never want to give up 564 yards. That's not our defense. That's not what we represent. But give credit to Wisconsin. They came out and hit us in the mouth."
Montee Ball ran for 198 yards and three touchdowns. James White ran for another 163 yards and two scores. Wisconsin was just looking to run out the clock at the end of the first half when White broke a 69 yarder and broke the game wide open. Wisconsin led 24-7 at the half.
The Hoosiers Big Ten leading pass offense only found the end zone twice for a season-low 14 points. Cameron Coffman completed 25 of 46 passes for 233 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions.
"Obviously the result was not what we wanted," said Coffman. "But we're not going to go backwards at all. We've still got two games left. We've got a bowl ahead of us."
The sudden excitement over IU football got trampled by Wisconsin (7-3, 4-2). The blowout clinched a Wisconsin trip to Indianapolis for the Big Ten title game on December 1. The Hoosiers finish the season with two road games, at Penn State and Purdue. The Hoosiers (4-6, 2-4) must win both games to be eligible for a bowl game.
"We're a long way away," said IU coach Kevin Wilson. "But we're moving in a positive direction. We have an outcome today that we're embarrassed and don't like. But we need to find ways not to sugarcoat or find silver linings. There's a lot that needs to be a lot better."
A group of Indiana male student fans in the front row at Memorial Stadium spelled R-O-S-E-S-? across their chests. The answer: not for the Hoosiers, but maybe for the Badgers.

The number one bot app shutdown for almost a week when warden 2.0 was released with the latest patch, then blizzard patched again, which caused it to go offline for another day.
But don't worry the app has been back online and we are all farming away. Blizzard has been stepping up the 72 hour bans for exploiting the economy which means you dumped a bunch of stuff on the AH, more than could be humanly gathered. So now people are controlling the rate at which they list stuff on the AH so it doesn't look as bad.
They're back in your server, ruining your economy.
The in game economy has become strongly crafter driven ever since botters became commonplace. Human farmers who try to compete with botters end up with a very low gold/hour income. What we saw last week was what the economy would look like if only real players were out there gathering and selling.
Pyromelter said...
I seriously doubt that, Malkavos. While I don't think raw mats would be as low as they are with the botters, there would likely be some sort of equilibrium, higher than where they are with bots, but much lower than what you recently saw.
uncaringbear said...
And we will continue to report people who bot.

Vermont Yankee is preparing to shut down next year, a process expected to take decades. Entergy had three options for its decommissioning:
ENTOMB has never been used in the United States and would apply to cases where the plant is too unstable to dismantle -- like Chernobyl. Until recently, most plants, like nearby Maine Yankee, went into DECON -- immediate dismantling. But SAFSTOR, which Entergy chose, is a newer option for plants that allows for slower dismantling.
Experts say there are both financial and safety reasons why a company might choose the SAFSTOR method. The plant can shut off, while decommissioning funds earn interest over decades. And the radioactivity also decreases over time, which could be up to 60 years, though experts believe Vermont Yankee's timetable will likely be up for negotiation depending on other factors, like the fact that the federal government has no place to store spent fuel now.
"There's no doubt that a longer time frame will provide a greater benefit of radioactive decay," says Bill Irwin, Vt. Dept. Of Health, Radiological & Toxicological Sciences Chief. "But I don't think that's the only reason to make a determination on when the decontamination takes place."
That radioactive fuel means there will be new construction needed after the plant closes. Currently, Irwin says there are about eight dry casks of spent fuel on site. When the plant is dismantled, there will be many more, and a new spent fuel pad will be needed to hold them.
"We will have reports sent to us here at the Department of Health that report the temperature of those casks and the radiation levels from those casks so that we can be among the first to know if there are problems there relative to their overheating or emitting excessive amounts of radiation," Irwin says.
The health department also plans to continue monitoring the environment around the plant, though Irwin says it will generally be safer after shutdown.
He uses the analogy of a boiling pot: When the pot is hot and the water boiling, they're more concerned about spills. But a pot of cold water won't boil over -- though it could still leak, which is what they'll look for. But as the years go by, they will have to monitor a smaller and smaller area.
"After the fuel in the reactors cools down enough that they can take it out, then we're looking at maybe even shrinking that geographic zone down some more," says Irwin.
Ultimately though, the monitoring within the plant itself during the shutdown period, including worker safety, is left up to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
