Schnucks Announces Plans to Close Its Riverdale Store in the Mid-South
ST. LOUIS - Craig D. Schnuck, chairman and chief executive officer of Schnuck Markets, Inc., today announced that the Schnucks store located at 5270 Riverdale Road in Memphis, Tenn. will close Saturday, March 15 at 6 p.m. The Schnucks Express convenience store and fuel center also on Riverdale Road will continue to operate.
Schnucks acquired the former Seessel's Supermarket in 2002, as part of an agreement with Albertson's, Inc. that included 9 other stores in Tennessee and two in Mississippi. The Riverdale store first opened in 2001. It is the newest of Schnucks Mid-South properties, and at approximately 68,000 square feet, it is also the largest.
Schnuck said, "When we bought the store last June, we had doubts about Riverdale's economic viability and assigned zero value to it." He added, "All of our experience told us that there was very little chance of making Riverdale profitable. After eight months, we concluded the area simply could not generate enough sales to sustain a grocery store of this size."
The closing of the Riverdale store will result in the reassignment of approximately 70 associates. The company intends to place associates in other stores where possible. Schnuck said, "We will do everything we can to make this transition a smooth one for both our customers and our associates."
While Schnucks believes the location is not conducive to a large grocery operation, the company is confident that there are other uses for the building and land that might better serve area residents. Consequently, representatives of Schnuck Markets, Inc. are seeking new tenants for the property. All interested parties should contact Karen Holman, vice president of asset management, at the Desco Group at
(314) 994-4464.
Schnuck says the closing of the Riverdale store will not thwart the company's plans to build three new stores in the Mid-South as announced last December. Although completion dates for Schnucks stores in Germantown, Collierville and northeast Memphis have not yet been finalized; the new stores are slated to open in 2004.
Including Riverdale, Schnuck Markets, Inc. currently operates 102 stores and 93 in-store pharmacies in Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Tennessee and Mississippi. This includes five stores that operate as Logli Supermarkets. The family owned company was founded in St. Louis in 1939.

Falcons' Impressive Defense Leads To Victory Over Lycoming
Posted: 1/18/2012
Box Score | More Women's Basketball news
By Bryn Swartz, GoMessiah.com reporter
The latest stop on the win streak-- which is now at eight in a row -- was Lycoming College, where the Falcons took home a 51-34 victory. The win included, arguably, one of the best defensive stretches in program history: a 14-minute run where the Falcons held the Warriors scoreless.
"We were really good, especially defensively," said Messiah Falcons head coach Mike Miller. "We passed the ball well, made our shots, and played good defense. Taylor (Miller) was phenomenal in the first half with her shooting, and she helped get us going against their zone. (Lycoming) played zone all 40 minutes, and they did a pretty good job. They did outrebound us but we forced 30 turnovers and we made only thirteen (turnovers) ourselves."
The game was a defensive affair for all 40 minutes, though the beginning started with Messiah scoring just eight seconds into the game on a jumper from sophomore Taylor Miller. Messiah kept Lycoming off the scoreboard until the 14:56 mark in the first half, forcing five turnovers in that period.
Miller and classmate Chelsea Danel each hit threes in the next minute, giving Messiah a 9-3 lead, but Lycoming rallied to tie the game nine. Miller hit three more three-pointers over the next four minutes, as Messiah increased its lead to 23-13 with 7:46 remaining in the first half.
At that point, the Falcons embarked on what could go down as the single most impressive and dominant defensive stretch in the history of the program. For the last 7:46 of the first half, and the first 7:07 of the second half, the Falcons did not allow a single point. That's an unprecedented scoreless stretch of 14:53, unheard of even for a defense as dominant as Messiah's.
During the stretch, Messiah held Lycoming scoreless on all 26 possessions: eight missed shots and 18 turnovers. The Falcons had 10 steals during that stretch, six by junior Kate Vanderhoff.
On their offensive side of the ball during that time frame, Messiah's 22-0 run completely put the game away. Vanderhoff, Dori Gyori, Kira Maier, and Miller combined for all 22 points, and Messiah's 45-13 lead midway through the second half stands as the signature score of a game that ended up looking less lopsided than it really was.
Lycoming ended the game on a 12-0 run that cut Messiah's previous lead of 32 into a 17-point victory.
But this game was anything but a 17-point victory. This was as dominant as the Falcons have played this season. Coach Miller referred to the first half as a "top three, or four" half of the season.
"United was the word for the night," said Miller, whose team moves to 4-1 in the Commonwealth. "We were very united defensively. We took some chances on offense and defense, but everybody had each other's back tonight and it worked out. It was pretty impressive to only give up 13 points in the first half, and even more so that (Lycoming) didn't score in the first seven-plus minutes of the second half. That's a testament to our defense."
Taylor Miller led the team with 17 points in 22 minutes, including 14 in the first half on 5-7 shooting. Gyori scored 11 points in 22 minutes, and grabbed seven rebounds. Maier and Vanderhoff scored seven.
Vanderhoff also collected eight steals in just 23 minutes of play. Official single-game records are not kept in Messiah's basketball record book online, but Miller believes that Vanderhoff set the program's single-game record.
"In my 26 years of coaching, which is about 600 games, I can't ever think of a time when a player had this many steals in a game." he said. "They kept trying to get her player the ball to shoot and they couldn't because Kate kept stealing it away. She has a good understanding of space on the court."
The Falcons' dominant victory improved them to 13-3 on the season, setting them up for a match-up with Arcadia University (3-12, 0-5) on Saturday at 5:00 p.m. The game will be played in Messiah's Brubaker Auditorium.
Fans are reminded that Saturday is also Youth Night and Chick-Fil-A Night at Messiah. Chick-Fil-A will be on hand selling sandwiches, while all fans 16-under will receive a free Falcons' basketball poster.

Mid-Morning Skate: Feb. 8, 2013
What was expected to be a morning skate has turned into a full practice. The Albany Devils, which were originally scheduled to travel to play the Springfield Falcons at MassMutual Center today, will instead practice at Knickerbacker Ice Arena this morning due to the impending snowstorm. They will worry about the Falcons during the make-up day on Apr. 2.
Today's practice could be the first for newly acquired center Andrei Loktionov. The 22-year-old is in his fourth professional season after splitting each of the previous Los Angeles (NHL) and Manchester (AHL).
The New Jersey Devils improved to 6-1-3 with a 4-2 victory against Tampa Bay last night at the Rock. Patrik Elias, Andy Greene, Adam Henrique and Ilya Kovalchuk each netted goals and Martin Brodeur made 17 saves on 19 shots.

Northwest #18: Kim's Colorful-Cozy Apartment
Name: Kim
Location: Berkeley
Size: 660 sq. ft.
Rent/Own: Rented apartment
What is the advantage of SMALL? Obviously, less to clean!...
What is the advantage of SMALL? CONT'D
...I also love the smallness because I live alone, and it's cozy and warm and is the perfect amount of space for me!
What's your favorite resource for your home?
IKEA: When you mix and match from different collections, as well as adding pieces from Craigslist (or things you've inherited from family members), it doesn't look totally IKEA-sterile.
What is your one favorite element in your small, cool home?
The color - the mint walls and daffodil doors/trim make it feel like springtime all year round; and the magenta rug and multi-colored pillows really make it feel homey.
22 Comments
I, for one, could have done without the kitchen shot or the bathroom. They're not doing ANYTHING for you. This one's just OK for me. Love the wall color, but it's not being taken full advantage of.
I love the wall color in the lead shot. And the rainbows make me happy.
I see apples to apples and yarn.... my kind of place!
Can we be friends? I love Apples to Apples and Rainbow Brite.
I also love that blue paint on the walls.
eh. Sorry - it's a bit on the college side for me, with no unity in color themes, or styles. Tie dye should never be a part of decor. The furniture and decorative knick knacks feel very Pier 1 meets Kmart. The kitchen should have more personality. White appliances with white cabinets are boring.
I love the kitchen shot - so crisp and clean and what I wish my kitchen looked like. However, the rest of the place falls a little short. Its cosy and small, but not 'cool' in the sense of creating solutions to small space restraints. I would have preferred a second Ikea couch like the 2-seater: off the ground and not too bulky. Mismatching the light & airy 2-seater with the big clunky 3 seater makes the space feel mish-mashy. Using the same sofa creates unity and makes the space appear larger.
This looks like a great place to start from, but hasnt arrived yet.
Some entries are criticized for being too college, and then others are criticized for being too full of designer pieces. I wish we were seeing more happy mediums between the two!
The bedroom photo is very clever.
college much?
it's the flower photos and the tiedye blanket that do it...
Thanks for the comments so far! I know my apartment is not in the same league as the more designer/fancy ones...I just thought someone should represent those of us out there who subscribe to AT but don't necessarily fit in to the typical kind of "cool" found within its articles and contests. I know there must be lots of readers out there like me, who have perfectly lovely homes but don't always feel like they can identify with the common aesthetic found at Apartment Therapy.
And since when are photographs of flowers "college"? :-)
Happy apartment-ing,
very cute!
i love the colors, theyre so cheerful :)
another kim.
I love this apartment; it's what my apartment aspires to be but definetly falls short of this one. Maybe it's because I am a college student. It would be wonderful to come home to a fun place like this after a day full of classes and studying.
not a winner but cute place showing personality and a nice eye for both color and spatial organization. looks like a nice place to live!
Kim, hear ya. It's hard because people expect to see something beyond what they see on a daily basis when they are looking at entries. Something innovative and interesting, beyond just the interest at looking at pads that aren't theirs (which is fun, so thanks for entering and allowing us to take a look in your life). Your pad is nice though. Absolutely colorful and cozy.
Kim, I think your place is lovely. What paint did you use for that sweet and refreshing mint color?
The paint is good ole (cheap) Behr. The folks at Home Depot mixed me up a batch of the mint, and when (after painting the living room) I thought it would be too much in the bedroom, mixed me up a lighter version of the same color. I used Behr in the kitchen (and on the doors/window frames) as well, though I went for eggshell finish, since I was told that would be easier to clean (in case of, ahem, splattered spaghetti sauce or wayward cookie dough).
If you want the actual color names, just email me (email@example.com) and I'll look 'em up (they're on the cans, I'm sure)
Sorry, but I wasn't excited about anything.
college = 90's = tie dye and displaying empty wine bottles = the set from Friends.
liked it, its cute and cosy. Always love seeing another knitter. Are they two beside tables behind the couch...nice touch along with the shelf.
I think the place is very personable, and lived in. Which is what I personally like to see. I don't quite do the 'magazine layout' look. It may look nice, but give me a place you can sit down, lean back and have a glass of wine (like this one), and I'll give you my vote!
It's fun and very typically Berkeley....
Makes me yearn for my days at UCB...or Cal as they call it now....
I like it...
Love the candy colors in the livingroom and the white of the kitchen. Love your Pyrex dish too.
I LOVE color and can totally appreciate your aesthetic. I think it looks very cheerful and pretty. I would suggest that you bring some of that color and excitement into the kitchen, it looked very white and bland in comparison to your fun living room and bedroom! Nice job, though.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa(KTIV) - The State Legislature in Colorado is looking into the possibility of getting rid of the death penalty, not because of moral issues, but on a budgetary issue.
But would lawmakers in South Dakota consider a similar measure in the face of budget issues.
Right now the state of South Dakota has three inmates on death row.
The cost nationwide runs from $90 thousand in California to $2 million in Colorado.
The national average cost for incarceration of a traditional inmate, according to the Death Penalty Information Center, is $25 thousand a year.
They say that cost goes up the day it becomes a capital case.
"The day that the case is announced as potential capital case means that two lawyers will be assigned to defend the inmate, probably two prosecutors to prosecute, they will then bring in expert," said Richard Dieter, Executive Director at the Death Penalty Information Center
Experts on DNA, mental heath and mitigation all add to the cost, but it doesn't stop when the trial is over.
"You have typically single cell as opposed to multiple people in a cell because it's death row, people have to be watched more closely," said Dieter.
Death row inmates require individual recreation time and meal times in addition to having their own cell.
While cost is an issue in all states, State Senators from South Dakota say they aren't sure if they'll make any changes this year.
"It is perhaps something that states should look at, I don't think our state will be willing to look at that, I don't think that that argument is going to sway the folks that still want the death penalty in our state," said Sandy Jerstad, South Dakota State Senator from District 12.
"During my time in the legislature that proposal has come up at least twice, and I'm totally opposed to repealing the death penalty," said Gene Abdallah, South Dakota State Senator from Sioux Falls representing District 10.
The Death Penalty Information Center estimates that an inmate serving a life sentence costs the state about a million dollars if they spend an average 40 years in jail. For a criminal on death row, the cost jumps to $2 to $3 million even though they spend on average 12.7 years incarcerated.
But some lawmakers think the budget issue is just a ploy to get rid of capital punishment
"They give that it's not a moral issue but a cost issue, I'm not buying it," said Abdallah.
They concede that budget issues are only one factor playing into state's decisions.
"Costs has a new significance, a new urgency about it this year, than it had in other years," said Dieter.
In all there are 4 states that are considering getting rid of the Death Penalty within the next few months because of budget issues, they are: Maryland, Montana, New Mexico and Colorado.
New Jersey already banned the Death Penalty in 2007, to help with their budget.

Colorectal Cancer Health Center
Foods Interfere With Colon Cancer Drugs
The Role of Polyamines continued...
"Too much polyamine is decreasing the effect of the drug seen in the original study," she says.
The findings help to refine who will most benefit from this colon cancer preventive strategy, says Richard M. Goldberg, MD, head of the North Carolina Cancer Hospital in Chapel Hill.
"Prevention studies are probably the answer to cancer," he tells WebMD. "That's how we will make the biggest impact on [deaths]." Goldberg was not involved in the study.
When it comes to polyamines, it's still not known how much is too much, Raj says. "But people in the highest quartile in the study are eating about 50% more [than the average person]," she says.
Foods rich in polyamines include orange juice, red meat, corn, and peas.
DFMO, which is short for difluoromethylornithine, was developed as a cancer medication but is now used to treat African sleeping sickness. It's also used to remove unwanted hair. Sulindac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is also sold as Clinoril.

Entrepreneurial Expert Hired to Head New Center, Build New Majors
Fri Nov 22 2013
HICKORY, N.C. — Business has long been one of Lenoir-Rhyne University's most popular majors. The classrooms are full and the graduates are going on to bright futures. Now the university has decided to push its program one step farther.
That's why Dr. Ralph Griffith was hired to be the Assistant Professor of Entrepreneurship at LR's Charles M. Snipes School of Business. And that's why he'll also serve as the business director of the Center for Commercial and Social Entrepreneurship.
Griffith is forming the foundations of the CCSE. His goal is to offer professional consulting to people in the Hickory community who want to get started in business. He wants to extend LR's reach into the community and build key relationships that will last for decades.
"We can be a place for people to come in and help them find a path to business," he said. "We hope to create new LR-friendly businesses by helping people get started."
Griffith's goal for Lenoir-Rhyne's students is to build a campus-wide culture of entrepreneurial thought and outlook for all students—not just the ones in the new undergraduate curriculum he's designing—a new business administration degree with an entrepreneurial focus and a dedicated entrepreneurial degree due to debut in the fall of 2014.
In the meantime, Griffith plans to spread entrepreneurial thought throughout the school's disciplines. If a biology professor is discussing genetic manipulation as it relates to corn plants, why not bring in a local farmer to discuss the end product and how it will impact his yield and the local economy?
"I want us to give our students the edge—more opportunities than they would have otherwise have had," he said.
About Dr. Ralph Griffith:
Age: 32
Hometown: Midland, Mich.
Will move to Hickory in: December
Education: Doctorate of Business Administration in Entrepreneurial and Small Business Operations: Baker College Center for Graduate Studies, Flint, Mich.
Master of Business Administration in Integrated Management: Northwood University, Midland, Mich.

Mr Soros, whose flagship Quantum Endowment Fund generated 8pc returns last year compared to an average decline of nearly 20pc among other hedge funds, told Bloomberg Television: "The recovery will look like an inverted square root sign. You hit bottom and you automatically rebound some, but then you don't come out of it in a V-shaped recovery or anything like that. You settle down, step down.

(AP:TORONTO) CNBC's Jim Cramer has another feud on his hands.
Just weeks after "The Daily Show" host Jon Stewart took Cramer to task for trying to turn financial reporting into a "game," famous bear economist Nouriel Roubini criticized the host of CNBC's "Mad Money" on Tuesday for predicting bull markets.
In an interview, Roubini says Cramer has been wrong each time he's called a bull market.
Roubini is a New York University economics professor who predicted in 2006 that the worst recession in four decades was on its way.
CNBC, a unit of General Electric Co., is a cable television station specializing in financial news.
EN, over on MeanStreet at the Let's make a Deal… might as well be cranking on the Monkeys Grinders Organ and listenting to the CNBC Monkey as to figure out in the end that Cramer has not been right yet… how may times has he missed the banana boat headed for the bottom of the ABYSS to date!

The new "rules of the road" for Caribbean and other tax havens will be included in a communiqué issued by the Group of 20 nations at a much-anticipated London economic summit on Thursday, said Michael Froman, a deputy White House national-security adviser for international economic affairs. On the tax-haven question, Mr. Froman acknowledged that there were no major offshore havens among the nations of the G-20. (Bull S _ _ _ _), here come the "Tooth Fairy"! But, he said, the summit leaders have conducted "a series of dialogues" that will be reflected in the road map for clamping down on tax cheats. The U.S. remains somewhat divided from Germany and France, which are pushing to blacklist tax-haven nations that don't go along with the emerging G-20 prescriptions.

David MacAnally/Eyewitness News
Indianapolis, January 5 - Sometime between nine o'clock Wednesday night and seven Thursday morning, thieves broke into an unmarked SUV in the neighborhood around 21st Street and Girls School Road.
What they took could lead to a very dangerous situation. State Police Sgt. Dave Bursten describes what was taken, "Several weapons, an M-4 .223 rifle and a .40 cal Baretta handgun. That weapon was loaded."
There was no ammunition in the rifle. The thieves also got the Trooper's laptop computer, State Police radio and two bullet-proof vests. The radio has since been rendered inoperative.
Sgt. Bursten says the M-4 is an assault-type weapon. And the .223 caliber ammunition is similar to the military's M-16, which is regular issue in Iraq.
Sgt. Bursten says it's very important that police get the weapons back. "It's very serious. We are very concerned," he said. "They may try to sell it on the black market."
Police say the Baretta has a State Police insignia on the hand grips and one side of the gun's frame.
Police are asking anyone who might have information on the theft to call them at (317) 899-8583.

This recipe was fantastic.. everything I thought it would be plus more.. even my 3&$ year old enjoyed it. I was concerned at first about the chile's but they were a nice addition.. will make again.

I liked this stew. It was very filling. I did however make a few changes. I did not use butter, canola oil instead. I used black pepper to taste and added a couple pinches of salt because it really needed it.

Very good! I not a big stew fan but this isn't even in my realm of stew! I used a little more chicken broth, added broccoli in, only used two cans of beans (pureed one and slightly mashed the other), seasoned with pepper and a chicken boullion and served with a little bit of orecchiette, but I definitely think this recipe would be good without my changes too. I thought the stew was missing an endnote when I tasted it before adding the cream, but the little bit of cream definitely pulled everything together. Delicious!

Transparency and choice needed to address growing UK online privacy concerns and maintain customer trust
London - 11 July, 2012 - The latest TRUSTe privacy research published today, shows that UK consumer concern about online privacy is growing, with 94% of consumers worried about it and 54% more concerned than a year ago. The survey shows that the impact on businesses could be significant with consumers engaging less with companies they don't trust, but there is also evidence that transparency and consumer choice can improve favourability.
The TRUSTe 2012 UK Consumer Data Privacy Study was conducted online by Harris Interactive from 31 May to 6 June, just after enforcement of the EU Cookie Directive began. The research findings will be launched at the TRUSTe Data Privacy Summit in London today where representatives from global brands, publishers, advertisers, law firms and regulators are meeting to consider how best to manage data privacy and the potential impact of the research findings on UK businesses.
The headline findings on UK consumer attitudes to online privacy are:
- 94% of consumers worry about their online privacy - 54% are more concerned than one year ago
- 27% of consumers are more concerned with mobile privacy than website privacy
- Consumers engage less with companies they do not trust – leading to lower purchases (29%), app downloads (68%) and sharing of information (86%)
- Consumers believe advertisers, publishers and ad networks are all responsible for safeguarding their privacy, but trust themselves most
TRUSTe's research also highlights that transparency is key if businesses are to address these concerns. For example, 79% of consumers are aware of online behavioural advertising (OBA), 53% do not like it and 42% believe that personally identifiable information (PII) is attached to tracking activity. However favourability towards this kind of advertising almost doubles when consumers are assured that any data that could identify them personally is not used.
Consumers also reward companies for good privacy practices with 51% more inclined to click on an advertisement that gives them the option to opt out of online behavioural advertising and 55% are more inclined to do business with publishers and advertisers that give them the option to opt-out.
Advertisers can increase favourability by 42% through participation in the EDAA self-regulation programme and businesses can increase trust and engagement through independent privacy certification schemes. 60% of UK consumers said they checked for independent verification of privacy standards. The research shows that TRUSTe is the most familiar UK privacy brand with one in two UK consumers recognising the green TRUSTe certified privacy seal.
Speaking in London ahead of TRUSTe's Data Privacy Summit, Chris Babel, CEO TRUSTe said:
"The recent EU Cookie Directive has put third party tracking and online behavioural advertising under the spotlight in the UK and forced advertisers, publishers and brands to consider their data privacy practices and how they communicate these to their consumers.
Although our research shows that consumer concern in the UK is growing, it is reassuring to see how positively consumers respond to advertisers who adopt self-regulation schemes such as the EDAA programme and seek out businesses that demonstrate a commitment to good privacy practices through an independent privacy certification programme.
At TRUSTe we are committed, through our research programme and events such as the Data Privacy Summit in London today, to providing the consumer insight and solutions that businesses need to adapt to the constantly changing privacy and compliance landscape and ensure they remain ahead of the curve."
TRUSTe has recently launched five data privacy certification solutions in the UK for websites, mobile sites, mobile apps, and data collection. For more details go to http://truste.com/about-TRUSTe/press-room/news_truste_lauches_new_data_privacy_certifications

Most people know that family history can play a big part in whether someone is susceptible to a disease. But did you realize that your ethnicity can also affect your risk for some diseases.
Many people used to feel that heart disease was more of a man's problem, but more women are now dying of heart disease than men. In fact, heart disease is the number one cause of death for women. One in four women will die of heart disease. By comparison, one in 30 will die of breast cancer. Unfortunately, only 57 percent of American women know that heart disease is their leading killer, according to a recent survey by the American Heart Association.
"We want to raise awareness of this," says Annabelle Volgman, MD, director of the Rush Heart Center for Women. "We want to partner with women and help them take care of themselves," she says.
"Also, by educating women, we hope to have an impact on the whole family," says Volgman. "Women will be making lifestyle changes for themselves that have the potential to affect the whole family. They'll be leading more physically active lives and making more healthful meals, which are two positive lifestyle changes that they can share with their loved ones."
Heart disease not only affects men and women differently. It affects the lives of women from various ethnic groups differently. Black women, for example, are at higher risk for heart disease and most of its risk factors. Heart disease is more prevalent among black women than white women. And black women are more likely to experience some of the main risk factors for heart disease such as having high blood pressure and/or diabetes and being overweight. According to the National Institutes of Health, more than 80 percent of African American women at midlife are overweight or obese, 52 percent have high blood pressure and 14 percent have been diagnosed with diabetes.
Latinas are also at higher risk than white women, partly because of higher tendency to have diabetes, to be less physically active and to be overweight. American Indian, Asian and Pacific Islander women are also at higher risk for type 2 diabetes.
Along with other changes in the body, menopause brings an increased risk of heart disease. This is partly because of a drop in the levels of estrogen in the body, which can affect the concentration of lipids (including cholesterol and triglycerides) in the blood. "The risk of heart disease for women is lower than for men before menopause," says Volgman. "Yet, after she reaches menopause the risk becomes the same as men's."
Risk Factors

Risk factors that should be monitored and managed:
Diabetes Risk factors that you can't control:
Go online to learn "How to Reduce Your Risk."
Know Your Numbers
"It's important that people know their cholesterol and blood sugar levels," says Volgman. "Know not only your total cholesterol levels, but your LDL, HDL and triglycerides."
Also, know your risk factors and share them with your doctor. "For example, whether or not there is a family history of heart disease, because this really can change the whole picture," says Volgman. "This is very important for you to share with your doctor, as is whether or not you smoke or use other tobacco products."
"We want to empower people to lower their risk of heart disease and prevent type 2 diabetes and its complications," says Volgman. "Many times it's a matter of making small lifestyle changes like eating the right foods and getting more physical activity in your life. We love it when we see people turn their lives around and lower their risk of heart disease." Go online to learn "Warning Signs of a Heart Attack in Women."

Quitman - At first glance, they look like the real thing. But look a little closer and the differences are obvious. "You can see the color is more yellow in the real bill, and the fake actually looks like it was printed on computer paper," said Joann Saunders, Investigator.
Several counterfeits have passed through local Quitman stores in the past month. "They're printing them from their computers, passing them off in stores, and getting away with it," said Saunders. "Then the stores are just out of their money."
A teller at Heritage Community Bank found one of the fakes. "She could tell immediately something was wrong because the face was backwards on the back, and it just looked really funny," said Edna Wheeler, Bank Teller.
The bank uses visual inspection and this pen to spot a counterfeit bill. "We mark it like this, and you can see the mark is a yellowish color," said Wheeler. "If it had been a fake, the mark would have stayed black."
Not all local merchants have these special tools, but with a little extra work, anyone can tell the difference. "First of all, notice how the customers are acting, and if they seem nervous, something is probably wrong," said Saunders. "You call also tell by the texture of the bill."
Quitman investigators haven't caught the person responsible for printing the bills. Counterfeiting is a felony offense that could carry up to 20 years in prison.

A Waco man was arrested by the U.S. Marshal's Task Force on Monday for allegedly stabbing a man at a traffic light on August 12, 2012.
35-year-old Amado Manuel Delapaz was charged with aggravated assault for the stabbing. He also faces charges of two counts of not paying his child support and driving while his license was suspended.
According to police, the victim was stopped at a traffic light at 26th and Bosque when a man in a truck pulled alongside and started cursing at the passenger in the victim's car.
Delapaz was a passenger in the truck and he allegedly got out of the truck and started assaulting the passenger in the other car through the passenger window. The driver of the car got out to defend his father, who was being assaulted, and got into a fight with Delapaz.
The victim got into a fight with Delapaz. The victim had a stab wound on the left side of his neck, a cut on his head, a cut on his chest, a puncture wound on the left side of his chest and back, and a stab wound to his left shoulder.
The victim was driven to Providence Hospital, where police were called.
Delapaz's picture was picked from a photo lineup by the victim.

Samsung SSD 840 EVO Review: 120GB, 250GB, 500GB, 750GB & 1TB Models Testedby Anand Lal Shimpi on July 25, 2013 1:53 PM EST
- Posted in

- Samsung SSD 840
Final Words
I was extremely excited about Crucial's M500 because it was the first reasonably priced ~1TB SSD. Even though its performance wasn't class leading, it was honestly good enough to make the recommendation a no-brainer. The inclusion of features like eDrive support were just the icing on the cake. With the EVO, Samsung puts forth a formidable competitor to the M500. It's faster, uses less power at idle and carries lower MSRPs for most of the capacity range. Microsoft's eDrive standard isn't supported at launch, but Samsung expects to change that via a firmware update this September.
Endurance isn't a concern with TLC for client workloads, although I wouldn't recommend deploying the EVO in a write heavy database server or anything like that.
The additional features that Samsung threw in the pot this round really show some innovative thinking. TurboWrite does a good job of blurring the lines between MLC and TLC performance, while Samsung's RAPID DRAM cache offers adventurous users a way of getting a taste of high-end PCIe SSD performance out of an affordable TLC SATA drive.
The 1TB version is exciting because it offers a competitive price with the 960GB M500 but with better performance. It's also good to have an alternative there as the 960GB M500 has been supply constrained at times. At first I didn't believe that Samsung's TLC strategy could hold weight against the Intel/Micron approach of aggressively pursuing smaller process nodes with MLC NAND, but the EVO does a lot to change my opinion. I'd have no issues with one of these drives in my system even as primary storage. The performance story is really good (particularly with the larger capacities), performance consistency out of the box is ok (and gets better if you can leave more free space on the drive) and you've got Samsung's firmware expertise supporting you along the way as well.
To say that I really like the EVO is an understatement. If Samsung can keep quantities of the 840 EVO flowing, and keep prices at or below its MSRP, it'll be a real winner and probably my pick for best mainstream SSD.

HenryWell - Monday, July 29, 2013 - linkLove my job, since I've been bringing in $82h… I sit at home, music playing while I work in front of my new iMac that I got now that I'm making it online. (Home more information)
http://goo.gl/IxKJ1G Reply
Romberry - Saturday, July 27, 2013 - linkWell...that sort of depends, doesn't it? The first 2.5-3GB or so are at close to 400mb/s before depleting the turbowrite buffer and dropping down to around 110-120mb/s, 2-3GB covers a lot of average files. Even a relatively small video fits. And as soon as the turbowrite cache is flushed, you can burst again. All in all, long (very large file) steady state transfer on the 120gb version is average, but more typical small and mid file sizes (below the 3GB turbowrite limit) relatively scream. Seems to me that real world performance is going to be a lot quicker feeling than those large file steady state numbers might suggest. The 120gb version won't be the first pick for ginormous video and graphics file work, but outside of that....3GB will fit a LOT of stuff. Reply
MrSpadge - Saturday, July 27, 2013 - linkAgreed! And if your're blowing past the 3 GB cache you'll need some other SSD or RAID to actually supply your data any faster than the 128 GB 840 Evo can write. Not even GBit LAN can do this. Reply
nathanddrews - Thursday, July 25, 2013 - linkRAPID seems intended for devices with built-in UPS - notebooks and tablets. Likewise, I wouldn't use it on my desktop without a UPS. Seems wicked cool, though. Reply
ItsMrNick - Thursday, July 25, 2013 - linkI don't know if I'm as extreme as you. The fact is your O/S already keeps some unflushed data in RAM anyways - often times "some" means "a lot". If RAPID obeys flush commands from the O/S (and from Anand's article, it seems that it does) then the chances of data corruption should be minimal - and no different than the chances of data corruption without RAPID. Reply
Sivar - Thursday, July 25, 2013 - linkYou can always mount your drives in synchronous mode and avoid any caching of data in RAM.
I wouldn't, though. :) Reply
nathanddrews - Thursday, July 25, 2013 - linksoo00 XTr3M3!!1 Sorry, I just found that humorous. I've actually been meaning to get a UPS for my main rig anyway, it never hurts. Reply
MrSpadge - Saturday, July 27, 2013 - linkIt does hurt your purse, though. Reply
sheh - Thursday, July 25, 2013 - linkI wonder how it's any different from the OS caching. Seemingly, that's something that the OS should do the best it can, regardless of which drive it writes to, and with configurability to let the user choose the right balance between quick/unreliable and slower/reliable. Reply
Death666Angel - Friday, July 26, 2013 - linkThat was my thought as well. The OS should know what files it uses most and what to cache in RAM. Many people always try to have the most free RAM possible, I'd rather have most of my RAM used as a cache. Reply

One thing I love most about Bangkok is the food. I love their use of herbs and the way they cook pork. The Thais just know their pork! But this post is about their seafood which is uber excellent as well.
Anyway, we travel up to Bangkok once a year like an annual pilgrimage and during the last trip we stayed in this service apartment Unico Grande Sathorn(Now FuramaXclusive) which is almost like side by side with Lek Seafood. I didn't know better then and totally dismissed this dingy looking outdoor cooking "food place". Well better late than never!
This time round we made our way to Chong Nonsi BTS skytrain to savour their most excellent seafood. Oh and there's an excellent massage place called Healthland Spa thats around 15 minutes walking distance from this station too. Better to make bookings before going down though!
After getting all settled down in the air-conditioned section of the restaurant, we were served with their rendition of the quintessential Tom Yam Goong. Simple ordinary looking soup but is a burst of flavour. So much better than the version we had the night before at this award winning restaurant Baan Khanita. Compared one which is pretty upmarket to a regular restaurant, I'd take the regular one anytime.
After that came a vegetable that we've never tried before called bitter melon tip. Its like a cross between a Kangkong(Water Spinach) and Spinach with its own unique taste.
And then the most anticipated dish arrived. Grilled river prawns!!!!! The better half who supposedly had a bout of allergy reaction to prawns sometime back, whacked 2 of it without me prompting her to. I was expecting to walloped 3 of em but alas... she knows a good thing when she see one! Very fresh and succulent and plenty of juicy prawn paste in the head department. YUMMY!
Another one of my favourite is their grilled squid. Together with this spicy sauce... mmmm mmmm mmmmm mmmmmmmm... I practically finished the whole squid.
When we arrived inside the restaurant, we spied that most table had this baked seabass dish, so following the age old adage "when in Rome, do as the Romans do," we ordered one as well. It was no mistake at all! Its seemingly plain, seasoned with plenty of salt and probably a bit of garlic wrapped in banana leaf and aluminium foil and grilled. The fish was not even descaled and cleaned of its gills and innards. Boy oh boy, the freshness of the fish shines through and through. One of the nicest seabass I've ever had.
We over ordered and stuffed ourselves silly but if you were to ask me if I'd do it again, I'd say HELL YEAH and DOUBLE UP THE PORTIONS FOR THE RIVER PRAWNS!
Here's how it looks like from the outside.

|Closing the Food Gap: Resetting the Table in the Land of Plenty
|Mark Winne
|In Closing the Food Gap, food activist and journalist Mark Winne poses questions too often overlooked in our current conversations around food: What about those people who are not financially able to make conscientious choices about where and how to get food? And in a time of rising rates of both diabetes and obesity, what can we do to make healthier foods available for everyone?To address these questions, Winne tells the story of how America's food gap has widened since the 1960s, when domestic poverty was "rediscovered," and how communities have responded with a slew of strategies and methods to narrow the gap, including community gardens, food banks, and farmers' markets. The story, however, is not only about hunger in the land of plenty and the organized efforts to reduce it; it is also about doing that work against a backdrop of ever-growing American food affluence and gastronomical expectations. With the popularity of Whole Foods and increasingly common community-supported agriculture (CSA), wherein subscribers pay a farm so they can have fresh produce regularly, the demand for fresh food is rising in one population as fast as rates of obesity and diabetes are rising in another. Over the last three decades, Winne has found a way to connect impoverished communities experiencing these health problems with the benefits of CSAs and farmers' markets; in Closing the Food Gap, he explains how he came to his conclusions. With tragically comic stories from his many years running a model food organization, the Hartford Food System in Connecticut, alongside fascinating profiles of activists and organizations in communities across the country, Winne addresses head-on the struggles to improve food access for all of us, regardless of income level. Using anecdotal evidence and a smart look at both local and national policies, Winne offers a realistic vision for getting locally produced, healthy food onto everyone's table.

|Julie Guthman
|Weighing In takes on the "obesity epidemic," challenging many widely held assumptions about its causes and consequences. Julie Guthman examines fatness and its relationship to health outcomes to ask if our efforts to prevent "obesity" are sensible, efficacious, or ethical. She also focuses the lens of obesity on the broader food system to understand why we produce cheap, over-processed food, as well as why we eat it. Guthman takes issue with the currently touted remedy to obesity--promoting food that is local, organic, and farm fresh. While such fare may be tastier and grown in more ecologically sustainable ways, this approach can also reinforce class and race inequalities and neglect other possible explanations for the rise in obesity, including environmental toxins. Arguing that ours is a political economy of bulimia--one that promotes consumption while also insisting upon thinness--Guthman offers a complex analysis of our entire economic system.
|Food Politics: What Everyone Needs to Know
|Robert Paarlberg
|The politics of food is changing fast. In rich countries, obesity is now a more serious problem than hunger. Consumers once satisfied with cheap and convenient food now want food that is also safe, nutritious, fresh, and grown by local farmers using fewer chemicals. Heavily subsidized and underregulated commercial farmers are facing stronger push back from environmentalists and consumer activists, and food companies are under the microscope. Meanwhile, agricultural success in Asia has spurred income growth and dietary enrichment, but agricultural failure in Africa has left one-third of all citizens undernourished - and the international markets that link these diverse regions together are subject to sudden disruption. Food Politics carefully examines and explains the most important issues on today's global food landscape, including international food prices, famines, chronic hunger, the Malthusian race between food production and population growth, international food aid, "green revolution" farming, obesity, farm subsidies and trade, agriculture and the environment, agribusiness, supermarkets, food safety, fast food, slow food, organic food, local food, and genetically engineered food. Politics in each of these areas has become polarized over the past decade by conflicting claims and accusations from advocates on all sides. Paarlberg's book maps this contested terrain, challenging myths and critiquing more than a few of today's fashionable beliefs about farming and food. For those ready to have their thinking about food politics informed and also challenged, this is the book to read.

Historically, the NCAA Ice Hockey Rules Committee has come up with some good rules and some really bad rules as well. This year the Rules Committee decided that they are in favor of doing away with all hand passes even in the defensive zone.
Hand passes made illegal
Committee members proposed that all hand passes be made illegal, including in the defensive zone.
The referee will stop play on any hand pass, and the faceoff will be in the offending team's defensive zone. Additionally, if the team commits the violation in its defensive zone, that team will not be able to change its players before the ensuing faceoff.
"This is a way to promote scoring and create more chances on offense," McLaughlin said. "Not being able to make a line change can have a pretty big impact, and this takes away a rule that gave the defensive team an advantage."
From the bad rules department, this rule change is a head scratcher. There is no reason to change the hand pass rules.
The NHL has a hand pass rule and this rule works very well in the NHL game.
I don't see the logic in this rule change what-so-ever, it's incoherent. I don't know how it's going to promote more scoring in the offensive zone – which is also an illogical reason for promoting this rule change. If hockey seriously wants to "promote" goal scoring in hockey then they need to change the size of goalie equipment in all levels of hockey (NCAA, Junior Hockey, ECHL, AHL, NHL). The size of goalie equipment is too big.
Wouldn't it make sense if the NHL and the NCAA mimicked each other closely if college hockey is going to serve as a development league for the professional ranks?
Before you bite my head off, consider this: College Hockey Incorporated is promoting the NCAA route as a way to making it to the NHL. So if the NCAA is going to be an alternative development – as opposed to going the CHL route – why not have the NCAA rules mimic the CHL, NHL and AHL rules? Is the NCAA not sending players to the professional ranks in high numbers? College Hockey Inc said that 301 ex-college hockey players played in the NHL during the 2011-12 season. That means that the NCAA is currently supplying about 1/3 of the players in the NHL. Wasn't this one of the reason for promoting the half shields/three-quarter shields?
Honestly, I don't see how anyone couldn't make the argument that NCAA Division I Hockey isn't a developmental hockey league – all you have to do is watch the AHL and the NHL playoffs this season and you will see many ex-college hockey players playing in the playoffs.

7-Year-Old Boy Ripped from Family
A father mistakenly gives his son alcoholic lemonade at a baseball game and authorities quickly send the boy to foster care.
Christopher Ratte, a Michigan father of two, never expected a day at the ballpark would land his son Leo in protective custody. Momlogic spoke with Leo's Mom, Claire Zimmerman, who shares how her family's lives were turned upside down by an honest mistake.
Momlogic: What happened?
Claire: My husband, Christopher, took our 7-year-old son, Leo, to the zoo and a baseball game. The concession stand at the ballpark served only beer and lemonade. Christopher bought a beer for himself and bought a Mike's Hard Lemonade for Leo. Both of them went up to the counter and the man handed the beer to Christopher and the lemonade to Leo.
They didn't try to card our son or anything, so my husband didn't think anything of it. Christopher even checked the ingredients, and it had water, sugar, and hard lemonade. He thought it was like a PowerAde or something. My husband is a classical archeologist who digs up old things in Turkey. He didn't know what Mike's Hard Lemonade was.
Momlogic: What happened next?
Christopher called me that night and said I should come to Detroit to pick up Leo. He told me he mistakenly gave Leo lemonade that was alcoholic, and had been stopped by a security guard. The police put Leo and Christopher in an ambulance and took them to the emergency room to have Leo's blood alcohol level tested.
When I arrived at the hospital, we learned the authorities executed a police order to have Leo removed from our care. Even though he had no alcohol in his system, Child Protective Services was still coming to take him away from us. They took Leo to CPS and put him into a holding room while we were forced to wait in a hotel. The next day, they placed him in foster care. We had no idea where he was. We were desperate and it was an indescribable nightmare.
Momlogic: What did you do then?
The Legal Advocacy Clinic helped us get a preliminary hearing Monday. Leo was released to my care on the condition that Christopher moved out of the house until the full hearing. He moved to a hotel and I took Leo home. The hearing was Thursday, and thankfully the case was dismissed.
Momâ¢Logic: As a Mother, how did this experience make you feel?
Claire: My rights as a mother were clearly violated in a serious way. My son was taken away from me. I had spent the day as a good American woman. At the end of the day, my son was taken out of my hands and I had done absolutely nothing to merit this kind of treatment. It's a violation of my rights as a mother. We were guilty and then proven innocent, not the other way around.
God, can't the cops focus on catching the REAL criminals?
Once again, the system that is supposed to protect our children…..goes overboard. I hope that the family sues…..the agency has toooo much power, and many times just end up destroying lives instead of healing them. Opps, did I just say "healing them"? That phrase is not in the DSS handbook. Opps, did I say "DSS handbook"? I have not been able to get a copy of one, maybe because there is no such thing? The actions here must not be tolerated, because your or my child or children could be next!
I donât disagree with the other comments, and I don't mean to minimize your trauma…however, allow me to play devils advocate. I think when it comes to children you have to act in the best interest of the child. The cops (I am not a big fan of them) don't know you or your husband, all they know it the fact that a very young child was drinking alcohol at a ballgame with his dad drinking alcohol. Luckily you got your son back quickly and all was resolved. (I am sure it was hard on you, your son and your poor husband) But, You have to keep in mind that the cops responded that way, not because your husband made a mistake or he's an unfit parent….on the contrary, they responded that way because there really are bad parents out there that give bourbon to a baby or a joint to a 5 year old. It's unfortunate but because of all the "bad, abusive" parents out there, good parents like yourself who made an honest mistake end up going thru hell because of it. I can see your view about maternal rights or lack there of. And the fact that you were not even there and they still took him from you. But the cops are not there to interpret the law or to decide if you are fit or not. That is what the judge is there for.
FYI, I have heard the same story about Mikeâs Hard Lemonade and parents not realizing what it is on several occasions. If I were you,… I would let it go with the police. They were looking out for the safety of the child. I would focus my attention on the Makers of Mike's Hard Lemonade. I bet if you ran a search on Google you could find 10 other parents who had the same thing happen to them. If nothing else make them change the label and reimburse you for your legal fees. Again I am sorry that this happen to you, and I am not saying it is fair or right, but I would rather Keep the kids safe rather than sorry.
I think it is appalling how the State reacted and tore up this family. I have called our States Department of Family and Children on drug addict relatives multiple times and NOTHING happens. They don't even go question them. and then they react like this on a this family. What that mom must of felt like. No reason they couldn't of put Leo in her custody right from the hospital.
Not everyone knows what "hard" lemonade means.
Only staying anom. because of the DCF comment.
That's sad.
An honest mistake sent huge consequenses.
They'll take a kid away for that, yet I know a woman that's in heavy drugs with three kids, and they can't do anything because "they don't have proof" of anything.

Ok – so you know how people say "everything comes in three's" , like when really bad things happen or really good things happen….they come 3 at a time?
Well, that is exactly what happened to us on our honeymoon! We went to Cozumel on our honeymoon and while we were there we got a call from my sister at our hotel (at the time I wasn't even thinking it was weird that she was calling us in MEXICO on our honeymoon!), so she ends up having to break the news to me that my best friend that was just in my wedding got in a really bad car accident and was in a coma (don't worry she's ok now).
So we were blessed to be able to change our flights for way cheap and leave to go see her in the hospital (She lives in Denver and we live in Utah) which was super traumatic…..my poor husband was so comforting but I know it was hard for him to see me as an emotional wreck the first week of our marriage. Then the day after we got to the hospital , the doctors told us she was going to survive and we would just have to wait and see what happened in the weeks to come.
The next day I got a call from my boss and she asked if I could come in because they were swamped (mind you I was still supposed to be on my honeymoon). I explained everything that had happened and that I would, but I was in Denver and I couldn't. Then, without even saying anything about my friend or all the traumatic stuff I was going through she says " Well, I'm going to have to let you go then".
I was FLOORED!
I had worked there for almost a year and it was a secure job….I am a licensed insurance agent, so this came as a total surprise!
So then we finally get home from Denver…..exhausted and unemployed and 2 nights after we got home our cars got broken into and the stereos stolen. We had a $500 deductible on each of our cars and the damage to each car was about $490…..awesome!
In the end my friend healed, she's not the same, but she's alive. It took me a year to find a new job, but I got one and we learned the value of parking our cars in the garage .
I'm pretty sure we were being taught that life is going to be really hard sometimes, but you just have to roll with the punches. We've been married for a little over 3 years now and are expecting our first baby in 3 months and would LOVE the chance at a second honeymoon. Thanks!
Sincerely, a hopeful husband.

They get in fights
In which they get put in time out for
They have pillow fights
They get really excited over stuff
They call each other names
They play air guitar
They play childrens games
They laugh at everything
They do the cheesy smile ands winks
They get mad and pout when something doesnt go their way
They love to be center of attention
They want no ones help
They play hide and seek
they love to mess around with their boys
They make goofy faces when no one is looking
They always try to out do one another
They pull the charming face when they feel they might be in trouble
They think they're so cool when they dance
