Florida has 231 programs that help low-income buyers
ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 19, 2016 – Atlanta-based Down Payment Resource, a databank for homebuyer programs, released its fourth quarter 2015 Homeownership Program Index (HPI). According to the company, The U.S. has 2,406 homeownership programs available to help prospective homebuyers, and 84 percent currently have funds available – a one percent drop quarter-to-quarter.
The numbers are even stronger in Florida, however. The state has 231 buyer-aid programs administered by 113 agencies. And while 13 programs are not currently funded, 94.4% have money available to help prospective homebuyers.
The HPI found that 63 percent of buyer-help programs include a first-time homebuyer requirement, which they define as a buyer who has not owned a home in the past three years.
In 15 percent of homeownership programs, specific incentives are available for community heroes, such as special benefits for veterans, educators, protectors, firefighters, healthcare workers and disabled homebuyers.
"Renter surveys reveal the lack of understanding among consumers about downpayments and current requirements," says Rob Chrane, CEO of Down Payment Resource. "It's important for prospective buyers to research their home loan and downpayment options."
One Florida agency, the Florida Housing Finance Corporation, acts as a state clearinghouse for many programs funded by government resources. However, specific programs and rules can vary by state, county and city.

Pfizer Plans China Low-Cost Generics Drug Venture With Hisun
Pfizer Inc. plans to partner with China's Zhejiang Hisun Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. to produce low-cost generics for the world's third-biggest drug market. Hisun shares rose the most in seven months in Shanghai.
Pfizer is looking for new sources of revenue before it loses U.S. patent protection in November for Lipitor, the cholesterol medication that was the world's best-selling drug last year with $10.7 billion in sales. Off-patent medicines, including branded generics, are one of the fastest growing segments in the global pharmaceutical market, Pfizer and Hisun said in a joint press release issued late yesterday.
"The joint venture will mainly target the local market in China while also exploring opportunities in global markets," said Neena Moorjani, a spokeswoman for Pfizer, said in an e-mailed response to questions. The two companies "will focus on branded generic medicine" and "could contribute selected existing products," she said, adding their combined investment in the potential venture would amount to about $295 million.
China's pharmaceutical market, the world's third largest, is predicted to grow at least 25 percent this year, according to U.S. based pharmaceutical research firm IMS Health. Generics account for 60 percent of the domestic market, Pfizer and Hisun said in the release.
Pfizer is already the top drug company in China ranked by sales, followed by AstraZeneca PLC and Sanofi, according to IMS Health.
Shares Gain
"The potential joint venture would be an important milestone for Pfizer's efforts to broaden the reach of its world-class healthcare solutions in China," David Simmons, Pfizer's head of Established Products and Emerging Markets, said in the press release.
Hisun shares rose 2.9 percent to 36.92 yuan at the 11:30 a.m. trading break in Shanghai, after earlier gaining as much as 7 percent, the largest intraday increase since October.

Of course, you might disagree with that, but there's a relevant discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation#WikiProject Disambiguation banner discouraged on discussionless pages?. Uanfala (talk) 09:47, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

S-line templates[edit]
Hi. Thank you for your suggestion. I appreciate it. I certainly think your idea is correct and reasonable as you mentioned, however, I'm afraid that Japanese rail geeks won't agree with the idea. That's why I changed the Tawaramoto Line station succession boxes as other Kintetsu lines with multiple train services. Well, I will change the succession boxes again according to your suggestion. Thanks. BTW, I manually undo your correction for Local rail linking to a disambiguation page since I fixed the true problem. Thanks again.–KU (talk) 00:37, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
- @KU: After looking at more of those, it probably shouldn't look like the boxes I put on your page. The key point, though, is to not link to Local and Express, as those are both disambiguation pages. -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 23:39, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
This (The Motels album)[edit]
Responding to message left on Mburrell's talk page:
- I see that you reverted my change to the hatnote at This (The Motels album). When intentionally linking to a disambiguation page, the link should go through the (disambiguation) redirect per WP:INTDABLINK. This allows those of us who fix ambiguous links at WP:DPL (and the bots that help us) know that the link is intentional. -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 22:09, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- Intentionally linking to a redirect page to get to a disambiguation page sounds like the type of logic only a computer programmer would understand. It is not my intention to be disruptive. My goal is to minimize the amount of re-directs. For example, if a disambiguation page is labeled "This", it does not make sense to me to go to another Wikipedia page labeled "This (disambiguation)", just so Wikipedia can then redirect the user to finally get to the originally desired page labeled "This". The word "disambiguation" is used in the label as the visible link title, but just not in the hyperlink path. However, if you insist that you have bots that this would mess up, then I guess I should let a little bit of programming over rule common sense naming and linking. This is not a matter I am invested in much, so if you revert my edit, I won't make a fuss. I am glad you explained why you are doing what you are doing, even if the logic is programmer logic only. Mburrell (talk) 22:40, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- @Mburrell: Please be careful in your goal to "minimize the amount of re-directs." Please read WP:NOTBROKEN. -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 22:47, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- I know of that policy. I consider it one way that Wikipedia is broken. Was there a debate on creating that policy? In my mind, it is a bad policy. How can I debate it, or challenge it? Wikipedia does many things right, but imposing bad rules, or forcing super-editors opinions on every-day editors is one of the things Wikipedia does wrong. Wikipedia encourages multiple re-direct pages rather than encouraging editors to use correct terminology.
- @Mburrell: Please be careful in your goal to "minimize the amount of re-directs." Please read WP:NOTBROKEN. -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 22:47, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Mburrell (talk) 22:40, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
- The other thing Wikipedia does wrong, the major sin in my eyes, is removing articles for lack of notability. Lack of references, or poorly created are good reasons, but lack of notability is a poor reason. My reason for editing most days is music albums and artists. What I want Wikipedia to have is a list of every album out there, with a list of album length, song titles, song lengths, writers, guest appearances, instruments used, and other information. I want this for every album I own, or every artist who I am interested in. However, due to lack of notability, there are many albums that do not have their own pages, and are only listed by album title on the artist page, with no other information, or minimal information. Then I have to go to AllMusic.com, or Amazon.com, or hunt down other sources. AllMusic sometimes does not list song composers, and sometimes (rarely) gets something wrong, but because it is not a wiki site, it cannot be corrected. Wikipedia should be that one stop shop for all information, but has decided not to be. Maybe it is a space issue on the servers, or maybe they cannot deleted poorly created articles without an objective criteria that also encompasses less than notable albums, but this lack of information due to deletion has taken a bit of the shine off of Wikipedia. It is not the one stop shop for all information, just another stop. Sorry for the rant, but if I was explaining one thing I dislike about Wikipedia, I thought I would mention my main grievance as well. Mburrell (talk) 00:09, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for your help with James Lockhart[edit]

Glee season articles[edit]
Someone reverted all the glee seasons articles back to the way they were before and removed the notes showing which main cast members appeared in every episode and which were absent for some, please revert them back. I can't I use a phone to edit. It was very unnecessary. Zhyboo (talk) 19:38, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Zhyboo: The user that reverted the changes was BlueMoonset. You'll need to discuss the issue with them. -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 20:20, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
- As I have just pointed out on my talk page, that level of excessive (and unsourced) detail is not appropriate to Wikipedia articles, which is why it was removed. The Glee wikia might have it, and if you want to know Glee down to the last minor detail you'll probably want to go there, but we don't (and shouldn't). BlueMoonset (talk) 20:57, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Re: Tucson Roadrunners[edit]
The reason I did that was because the name of the disambiguation page was just Phoenix Roadrunners, and so I felt it was unnecessary. I was unaware that it was important. Thanks for letting me know. Sparkyb10123 (talk) 15:07, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
Disambiguation - Jitendra Singh[edit]
Hey, I'd just completed a move of Jitendra Singh (disambiguation) to Jitendra Singh. The latter was originally Jitendra Singh (Congress politician). I looked in to see and fix the links but then I saw that there're far too many and although the original title was for the congress politician, the incoming links are to all and sundry and not just that article. I've never used WP:Cleaner and was wondering if you could run that on this. cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 03:50, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
- @SpacemanSpiff: A template was causing most of the links, but I got the rest. All links are good now. -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 04:17, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

Closing panel for New York naming debate[edit]
A debate is underway about moving New York to New York (state) and placing either the city, the dab page or a broad-concept article at the "New York" base name. Would you be willing to exercise your wisdom and participate in a closing panel tasked with adjudicating this 15-year-old conundrum? Apply here: Talk:New York/July 2016 move request#Closing panel. Note that the move was first approved on June 18 then overturned on July 7 and relisted as a structured debate to gather wider input.

American Authors discography[edit]
Not a big deal, but you replaced a dab link for Oh, What a Life to a non-existent article Oh, What a Life (American Authors song) when it should have been the album, Oh, What a Life (album). I assume you were been going a little too fast and mis-typed it, so I've changed it. I only wanted to bring it to your attention in case WPCleaner (or some bot) made a bad suggestion that could be repeated in the future. Hoof Hearted (talk) 18:39, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Hoof Hearted: What I should have done was to create the song title as a redirect to the album. Either way, linking to the album is good for now. Thanks! -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 18:53, 27 July 2016 (UTC)

The Walking Dead's Andrew Lincoln Zombie Pranks Norman Reedus's Face Off
By Joanna Robinson | Videos | January 17, 2014 | Comments ()
During a publicity tour in Tokyo, Andrew Lincoln and Nick Santonastasso scared the stuffing out of Norman Reedus. Santonastasso, who has Hanhart syndrome and was born with only one arm and no legs, made a splash on YouTube last month with this great zombie prank video. Reedus is a fan of Santonastasso's pranks so the whole Walking Dead crew got together with Santonastasso to scare the crap out of Reedus. Andrew Lincoln is really there just to make us all feel uncomfortable about his natural, poncy accent. The real stars are the make-up team and, of course, Santonastasso's amazingly frightening scuttle. Reedus takes it all a little better than I would have. He didn't pee himself for one thing.

Like mentally challenged children, some Georgia legislators are trainable. We're speaking of a group that, for the most part, isn't intellectually impaired. Rather, the legislators are morally handicapped, so the techniques we'd apply to children – love and patience, for example – don't work. A figurative two-by-four wielded so that it smacks a legislator alongside the head is an excellent device for training members of the General Assembly.
Consider Rep. Steve "Thunder" Tumlin, R-Marietta. "Some of this you learn the hard way," Tumlin says, just a tad bit grumpily. "I sure did, over that payday lending bill last year."
Here's what he's talking about: In 2004, the Legislature passed a law that banned a vicious form of loan sharking called "payday lending." The least sophisticated consumers – the poor, poorly educated and (this would become significant) military personnel – were conned into taking loans against their next paychecks. With 360 percent annual interest rates and high fees, the borrowers often were forced to roll over the loans again and again as the principal never diminished and the payments soared.
What was the motivation for the legislators to reverse their years-long crusade against Georgia's poorest citizens? Did they have an epiphany of conscience? Did some of that Christianity they're always blathering and bellowing about finally sink in?
Well, no.
Doing the right thing hardly ever enters the mind of a Georgia legislator. The reason the General Assembly banned payday lending four years ago was because of a threat from the federal government. The Pentagon brass made it clear that states that fed young soldiers to the payday loan sharks were going to lose military facilities and all of their economic impact. That was the two-by-four that slapped the heads of Gov. Sonny Perdue and his attendant clowns from the House and Senate, who otherwise were perfectly happy to see their citizens treated as prey.
The tenacious crooks in the payday lending business didn't give up. Last year, Tumlin was one of the legislators who carried the predators' water in an effort to let them do their dirty business once again in Georgia. After being soundly thrashed, Tumlin has emerged as a born-again consumer advocate. Hallelujah.
And he's not alone. But before I describe an amazing outbreak of consumer-positive legislation at the Capitol, it's worth keeping in mind what this government is all about: money and lobbyists slathering cash (and bimbos) on legislators.
Example: You may have heard Perdue beating his chest, proclaiming he is pushing a constitutional amendment to eliminate a tiny 0.25 mil property tax that goes to the state. Is Perdue doing this, as he boasts, for beleaguered homeowners? Hardly. The real reason is that the small tax empowers the state Department of Revenue to ensure counties assess property at fair market value. Without the tax, the department has no role in assuring fair assessments. Thus, politically powerful industries – my bet is the timber business and/or utilities – pushed the amendment. If passed, these corporations will be able to lean on local officials to get sweetheart assessments – sticking common folks with the taxes the industries dodge.
The downside to craven pandering by the legislators is that they can't exactly tell citizens what they're up to. To an outsider, it appears there is absolutely no focus, or what little there is among legislators is a state embarrassment. When Roy Barnes was gubna, he'd hand out cards with three letters on them: WET, standing for water, education and transportation. That was focus. Now we have a guv whose passion is state money for fishing tournaments, and a Legislature whose main concern is on denying license plates to University of Florida fans and invading Tennessee to steal its water.
But there really is a sinister "focus." As state Rep. Rob Teilhet, D-Smyrna, puts it: "This Legislature is a government of the special interests, by the special interests and for the special interests."
With that backdrop, it is quite astounding that a few consumer bills have not been, as most are, summarily trashed -- and that several of the bills' proponents are Republicans. "Good old-fashioned shame is having an impact," Teilhet says.
The Republicans – notably Tumlin and state Rep. Rich Golick, R-Smyrna – don't exactly see it that way. "I'm a conservative, a free market guy," Golick says. "Sometimes when you pit a common person against a giant company, that's not a free market. Our job should be to level the playing field."
Golick is championing a bill (H.B. 130) that would allow consumers to freeze their credit reports to thwart identity thieves. The three massive credit agencies – a "triopoly" – wanted to charge $10 bucks to each member of a family. Golick figures $3 is sufficient. The Senate, meanwhile, is picking up the corporate kowtowing – adding a measure (S.B. 361) that would have the governor's banking commissioner set the fee, which means the credit agencies would call the shots.
Another bill (H.B. 1344) that is still surviving the slings and arrows of lobbyists would put a small dent in the "car title loan" business, a first cousin to payday lenders. Aside from the predictable usurious interest rates, the real scam with these sharks is that if a borrower is late on a payment, the title loan company gets the car, sells it and keeps all the proceeds. Thus, a consumer might have pawned an $18,000 car and lose all the equity for a $500 loan.
The bill, sponsored by Golick and Tumlin among others, would let the title pawn company keep what it was owed and any expenses involved in collecting its money – but would return the rest of the value to the consumer.
And still another bill (H.B. 1030) would force income tax preparation companies to admit that the money they give to consumers is not a tax refund – but actually a loan against the refund. Those loans charge the unwary customers 300 percent annual interest. "Half of all the tax refunds with these companies are eaten in fees and interest," Teilhet says. "The least we can do is force the companies to disclose those facts."
Georgia's average Joes and Janes can only hope for better treatment. "We've been behind where we should be in protecting consumers," Tumlin says. "But we're improving."

Apple Pay Locations Reach 2 Million, With Chick-Fil-A to Come
- The mobile-payment service doubled in-apps purchase volume
- Greater competition looms while consumers still skeptical
Apple Inc. said its mobile-payment service is now available in more than 2 million retail locations, with merchants such as Crate & Barrel, Chick-fil-A and Au Bon Pain rolling it out in stores.
Online retailer Zappos.com added Apple Pay on its iPhone and iPad apps Tuesday as competition intensifies among mobile payment providers. Globally, mobile payments will increase to $620 billion in 2016 from $450 billion last year, according to a report from TrendForce.
"We've been getting requests from customers to use Apple Pay for quite a while," said Aki Iida, head of mobile for Zappos. "It makes the customer experience easier, why not try it?"
Apple is highlighting services like payments amid slowing sales of the iPhone, which generates more than two-thirds of the Cupertino, California-based company's revenue. Apple last month forecast its first sales decline in more than a decade, spurring investors to question what the company will do next to revive growth.
In addition to pushing past its goal to make Apple Pay available in 1.5 million retail locations by the end of 2015, the company said the feature's in-app purchase volume more than doubled in the last six months of the year compared with the first half.
Changing Habits
Still, most U.S. consumers are reluctant to use their smartphones to make routine payments at retail stores. And most in-store terminals don't yet accept Apple Pay.
"The challenge for us and Apple as well is to see how much the feature is adopted -- not just by retailers but also consumers," Iida said. "Consumers have to change their mindset, that this is a feature they want to use."
In October, 16.6 percent of people who own newer iPhones had tried Apple Pay, an increase from 9 percent in November 2014, according to a survey by Pymnts and InfoScout, a consumer researcher. The service has been expanding globally.
Iida said he may consider working with Apple's rivals, such as Google's Android Pay. Competition is intensifying, with JPMorgan Chase & Co. scheduled to introduce its mobile wallet later this year and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. rolling out its payment service nationwide.
Eventually, every large bank and retailer could have its own mobile wallet, said Richard Crone, CEO of researcher Crone Consulting LLC. Those services may compete with or incorporate Apple Pay, and Apple's strategy is to get into as many of these wallets as possible to grab a piece of the action.

If you look at the pack here (picture) it is labeled raw, but these almonds were pasteurized and you can read it only when you get it. Actually there is one more sentence in ingredients which says - Steam Pasteurized. Misleading (as it is incomplete hence wrong, steam doesn't mean raw) information.
poor taste
Posted by Reviewer1861584 on Sep 29, 2013
Although labeled raw, these almonds were pasteurized. The taste and texture were not as good as almonds that are truly raw.

Very good raw almonds. All nuts are of good quality. A little less sweet in comparison with almonds from Now Foods. Хороший сырой миндаль. Орешки один к одному, плохих нет. Чуть менее сладкий, чем у Нау фудз.
Delicious and heathy raw and unsalted almonds.
Posted by Caerulea on Jun 07, 2014
Not only are these raw and unsalted almonds delicious, but they're naturally gluten free, safe for all people, have no known side effects, and are loaded with health benefits. Rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, including omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, protein, amino acids, dietary fiber, B vitamins (thiamin, vitamin B6, niacin, riboflavin, pantothenic acid), vitamins E and C, manganese, copper, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, pota ssium, zinc, calcium, selenium, phytosterols, and antioxidants, raw almonds are beneficial in treating high cholesterol, hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, heart disease, gastritis, acid reflux, gluten intolerance and celiac disease, arthritis, rheumatism, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's disease, various skin conditions, and cancer. These nuts lower triglycerides and LDL or "bad" cholesterol levels while increasing HDL or "good" cholesterol, protect against strokes, atherosclerosis and peripheral arterial disease, help stabilize blood sugar and regulate insulin levels, normalize blood pressure, boost and strengthen the immune system, flush toxins out of the body, aid digestion, prevent heartburn and acid reflux, relieve nausea and bloating, heal gastric ulcers, soothe the stomach lining, reduce colon inflammation, facilitate healing, stimulate the activity of the body's antioxidant enzymes and neutralize free radicals, improve brain function, restore hormonal balance, help maintain healthy bones, joints, skin, nails, and hair, alleviate the symptoms of depression, and even reduce the risk of cancer. Almonds also contain squalene, a naturally occurring antioxidant protecting from free radicals and preventing oxidative damage. I love these delicious raw almonds and would recommend them to people suffering from high cholesterol, heart disease, and diabetes, as well as to anyone wanting improve their overall health and well-being.

Check your nuts!
Posted by LicensedMassageTherapist on Jan 03, 2014
I didn't realize these had been PASTEURIZED. Apparently the FDA requires pasteurization (grrr) on raw nuts like almonds. BUT there are a couple different ways to pasteurize almonds: steam treatment or fumigation with toxic propylene oxide (PPO) gas. The package on these nuts does not specify which treatment was used. The nuts tasted great, but this new discovery has me reading labels even more carefully. I supposed buying organic is the ONLY way to go.
The best!!!
Posted by Reviewer2283138 on Dec 12, 2013
This is the best almond on this site, I've bought all whole almonds in iherb and this is my favorite one. Good size of nuts, dry enough, slightly sweet and always fresh.
High Blood Pressure
Posted by 5720508950197905733 on Oct 02, 2014
Along with L-Arginine and L-Citrulline my research also showed that a simple thing like Almonds and Walnuts can have a dramatic effect on High BP.They must be raw and natural and I grind them up to a flour consistency and put about two heaped dessertspoons on my cereal and eat it that way. Another way is to mix it with Yoghurt and diced fruit and eat that. I have had very high BP for last five years and with no help from Cardiologists I have been forced to do my own research and try natural things which have no side effects unlike the poisonous drugs they dish out. I also use Doctors Best L-Arginine (DRB-00200). My morning BP is still slightly high which must mean that my body is over producing Hormones during my sleep but when I get up and start taking my natural stuff along with a reduced quantity of BP meds my levels come down to almost normal at about 132/83 and remailn like that during the whole day. iHerb give me a quick delivery time to Australia, they are efficient and prices are very reasonable.
These taste rancid and not at all like raw almonds
Posted by health-enthusiast on Nov 24, 2013
These are the worst tasting almonds I ever had. They are labeled raw on the package, but they definitely do not taste like raw almonds. They have dark color, not light like raw almonds. They taste stale, rancid, and are hard .

Thought for the Day - Rev Lucy Winkett
The news that in the souvenir shop at Tate Modern, a replica of Damien Hirst's famous diamond skull will cost you £36,000 will seem incomprehensible to the vast majority of people who are worrying in these straightened days about fuel prices, benefit levels and the cost of keeping the family show on the road.
As an artist, Damien Hirst, once the enfant terrible of the art world, has often made works that comment on the commercialism of modern life, and when the art itself becomes fabulously expensive, it contributes to the commercial dynamic of hype and backlash that characterises a society where selling and buying has become arguably the defining activity of our culture.
The retrospectives not only of Damien Hirst but of David Hockney at the Royal Academy and of Lucien Freud at the National Portrait Gallery are hugely popular. They may also reveal another theme apart from the seemingly recession-proof art market. When the queues are so long to see what critics have called the "joyous" portrayals of East Yorkshire by Hockney it seems that a significant number of people want to seek out experiences that will move us, even overwhelm us, awaken our sensibilities and appreciation of what is not ordinary. These artists, although very different from each other, are all contemporary too; showing the rest of us our world as they see it – inviting us to look for new perspectives, unusual colours, singular expressions, that will give us back our eyes, interrupting what we think we know we see.
Until the 17th century, art was not thought of as separate from craft, religion or science; these human activities were all of a piece, practised by those with a sense of adventure, the spiritual, emotional and intellectual explorers of the world. And it's perhaps a sign of our times that the polarisation of these disciplines has lead often to a false separation between the provable empirical "facts" of natural science for example and the intuitive responsive sensibility of the artist. This separation and reduction happens in religion too; when the whole person is not taken into account and faith is diminished to a list of sentences to assent to, rather than a desire to awaken our spirits and learn to see afresh the realities of life, death, beauty and suffering in the world of which we are a part.
Whoever buys the diamond souvenirs may well be taking part in an ironic comment on the commercialism of 21st century Britain; but whatever the motivation, I want to refuse to be cynical about the fresh perspectives that artists keep alive for the rest of us, even if I will never be able to afford them.

TITLE: the Delusion of Susan Ballaster
By Theresa Santy
It happened on a day in summer which began in a manner strikingly similar to many other days in summer. Susan was busy in her home office tending to her time-consuming, yet flourishing online business. On this particular morning she had written a promotional newsletter, prepared for the day�s scheduled conference calls, and submitted five articles as a guest blogger. All of this had occurred before the beeping of her electronic calendar at precisely 8:00 a.m., which indicated it was time for breakfast.
In the kitchen, the Ballaster family gathered around the dining table for high-quality togetherness. Susan took a moment to quietly pat her own back for never failing to reserve enough energy to provide for both her loving husband and her exceptionally independent daughter.
�Work is crazy,� said Chris the husband and father figure, who couldn�t stay long. �I won�t bore you with all the details, but I really need to get in to the office.� He scooped some bacon and eggs onto a piece of buttered toast creating a sort of taco, and he left.
�I met a pretend friend yesterday,� declared seven year old Allison.
�Really,� said Susan, delighted. She�d read an article on a website by a Dr. McCharlatan, who was convinced that the invention of an imaginary friend was a sign of creative genius. It exhibited the child�s advanced ability to adapt to the world and should always be encouraged�and never questioned.
�My new pretend friend said we should meet again today, to play,� said Allison.
�Fantastic,� replied Susan.
Then Allison unloaded an excess of details regarding the happenings from Allison�s Fantasy World, while Susan unloaded and then re-loaded the dishwasher. When the forty-five minutes allotted for breakfast had expired, Susan went back to work.
At 2:00 p.m. Chris called from his cell phone, �Uh honey, things are you know, really crazy here at work. I�m sure you don�t want to hear the details. You�ll be able to manage without me tonight, won�t you?�
�No problem honey,� said Susan, who enjoyed being flexible and supportive.
As the day unfolded, Susan listened to the sounds of her daughter�s imaginary world�something to do with baby dolls and teddy bears�and it was a pleasant backdrop against an intensive work load.
At 4:00 p.m. Allison stepped into the office, �Mom,� she said, �it�s time for me to meet my new pretend friend. We�re going to play out front. Okay?�
�Sure honey,� said Susan. �Have fun.�
At 4:15 p.m. the electronic calendar beeped again, indicating it was time for a daily dose of vitamins. Susan decided to splurge and take an extra five minutes to check on Allison and her imaginary friend. But when the hard-working mother stepped outside, her daughter was not there.
Susan ran to the curb and peered up the street. Turning the corner was a girl who looked a lot like Allison holding the hand of an unknown man.
Susan grabbed her chest to keep her heart from falling out. �Allison!� she roared, and she ran, and she continued running and shouting�getting faster and louder with each passing second.
The stranger fled.
Susan reached her daughter and gathered her up, and then struggled to catch her own breath.
�Mom, what�s wrong?� asked Allison. �Mom, you�re squeezing me too tight.�
During interviews with the police, Susan collapsed into a chair, and for awhile she was unable to speak.
I missed the target, she thought, while she buried her face into the palms of her hands and rocked herself in a gentle back-and-forth motion. I always listened�always! But I never heard what my daughter was saying. Why was Allison drawn to this man, this stranger who told her to call him her �pretend friend.�? How could my daughter�s loneliness have gone unnoticed, despite her audible clues?
Susan had no idea what time it was when she called her husband, but he did not answer his cell phone. She sent him a text message, which went unanswered.
Impatient for a response, Susan called Chris� office number.
�I�m sorry Mrs. Ballaster,� replied the secretary. �Mr. Ballaster left the office at noon today since work has been, you know, so slow lately.�

Disability Bullying: Has Your Child Been a Target?
A new report and campaign from AbilityPath.org sheds new light on the rate of bullying among kids with different abilities -- even invisible ones like ADHD and LD. How has your family been affected?
Children with special needs, including invisible differences such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADD/ADHD) and learning disabilities, are two to three times more likely to experience bullying than their typically developing peers, according to a new report released from AbilityPath.org, a nonprofit serving families and children with special needs. Chances are that doesn't surprise you. As the mother of...

Scenes From an ADHD Conference
At the annual CHADD conference, I met ADHD adults struggling at work and parents of ADHD children trying to cope. They all had one thing in common: Hope.
ADDitude staff went to the CHADD (Children and Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) conference in Atlanta, a few months back, seeking answers, perspective, and even, as the yogis would say, a little lightness of mind. While many of the thousands of attendees found that threesome in the words and the flashy, funny PowerPoints of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADD/ADHD) experts, I found it in the adults and...

NEW YORK -- Phil Jackson was fined $25,000 by the NBA on Wednesday for criticizing referees Friday night after the Lakers' 114-108 loss to Utah.
Jackson was quoted in several newspapers about the way the officials -- Derrick Stafford, Derek Richardson and Leroy Richardson -- handled second-year center Andrew Bynum.
In the second quarter, Bynum was called for traveling and moments later he was whistled for a foul when he thought he drew a charge against Matt Harpring. The 19-year-old Bynum approached the referees, but teammate Kobe Bryant intervened.
"The big key with Drew is they wouldn't let him play," Jackson said following the game.
Jackson called the matchup a "roughhouse game" and said it was "one of those nights in Utah that you know you're going to get."
"The league throws out some referee corps that you're dubious about to start with and, you know, the game ends up to be like that," he said.
Each team was called for 26 fouls.

Written by Alyssa Gerace of Senior Housing News for ALFA Update
In the aftermath of the Great Recession, the need forand awareness ofsupplemental options for paying for senior living has grown substantially, spurring the growth of relationships between senior living providers and senior funding sources.
The economic downturn, burgeoning senior population, and ongoing budget crisis have combined to create an environment in which a growing number of seniors struggle to leverage their home equity with a lessening ability to rely on government programs to fund their retirement living.
In the near term, seniors whose investments took a hit while home values fell sharply are feeling the impact the most, and it shows in the heightened awareness of prospective senior living residents, says Jayne Sallerson, executive vice president of sales and marketing at Emeritus Senior Living.
Before the economic downturn, unless someone brought up a financial barrier, our salespeople werent as adept at educating consumers, she says. Now, people are so much more aware; theyre more cognizant [of supplemental funding options] and theyre asking about them.
The number one resource people turn to, in Sallersons experience, is the VA benefits program for Aid & Assistance. Qualified veterans and their spouses can apply to the program to get monthly benefits to help cover the cost of assisted living care.
While families can go on their own to a VA office to learn more about and apply for the Aid & Assistance Program, the application process can be complicated and in some cases take up to nine months for the funding to come through.
The Great Recession essentially left many seniors trapped in their homes and sparked the need for interim financing as potential senior living residents wait for their houses to sell, or for VA benefits to kick in, says Elias Papasavvas, founder and CEO of Elderlife Financial Services, whose company provides lines of credit used to fund senior care.
The typical consumers calling Elderlife Financial for help hadnt planned for a move into a needs-based senior living community, whether for themselves or a loved one, and werent financially prepared.
There was a significant spike in requests by families [following the recession], says Papasavvas.
Good economy or bad economy, there will be a need for this transitional financing, he continues. What will likely change is the amount of time it takes to repay the loan.
In a good economy it may be a few less months the credit is outstanding, compared to in a bad economy where it takes longer to sell the house, he says.
These days, the housing market is showing signs of a recovery as values slowly regain ground. But the economy is only one of three drivers that ensure the ongoing need for supplemental financing options. The other twodemographics and the debt crisisarent going away.
[Even] if the economy were to recover to pre-2008 levels, it would have no diminishing impact on our business, says Chris Orestis, co-founder and CEO of Life Care Funding Group, which converts life insurance policies to long-term care benefits.
Seniors with life insurance policies are ineligible for Medicaid. Rather than abandoning those policies, converting them into benefits can increase the timeline for privately paying for senior care by an average of 15 to 18 months, depending on policy size and care needs.
Although LifeCare Funding was founded just five years ago, its volume of business has grown by at least 100 percent each year, Orestis estimates. Today, the company has more than 4,000 senior living communities in its programa number that continues to multiply.
Thats not likely to change, Sallerson says. While VA benefits and interim line-of-credit financing are probably the most popular options for senior care funding, life insurance policy conversions will likely increase.
I think this awareness will stick, says Sallerson. People are going to continue to educate. The baby boomers are coming, and a lot of them dont have as much savings as the existing customers right now.
At this point, many supplemental financial services are still barely scratching the surface of market potential, says Orestis.
Theres no end in sight in terms of the number of seniors and those in the long-term care industry who can use our program, says Orestis. Long-term care services and providers have to look for how to educate and open up opportunities for consumers to access as many private pay options as possible.

It's me, Tracey.
I've been gone for so long (except for my Sunday morning pop-ins for my Weekly words to live by) that I am kind of wondering if I am writing this just for me, but maybe you're still there. (I hope so!)
Life has be way too ca-razy busy, with more changes and bumps in the roadway than I care for lately, and I can still see a few more on the horizon.
Both my son, and one son-in-law are navigating through big career changes and opportunities, and the sewing queen had an altercation with a small footstool while putting up her harvest decorations, in which the footstool won. She's on the mend now, thankfully, after surgery on a broken left wrist. She's sporting a now removable cast until nearly Christmas, and is very happy that this mishap occurred after golf season ended. (She is slightly bummed, as it is cramping her holiday sewing season, though.)
I ended up exchanging my day at the the Plucky Maiden's Bridal Faire for a day of quality time at the ER with the Sewing Queen,(followed by burgers at Red Robin!) but am signed up for their next one, coming up in March, and the Sewing Queen will be there helping in my booth.
On the topic of Plucky Maidens, it's very nearly time for the other Plucky Maiden Faire I am going to do...the Holiday Junk Fest!
I am extra excited about this one, since I am sharing the booth with one of my daughters and one of her friends. If you're in the area, mark your calendars to attend! It's going to be spectacular, and I am excited to be part of it.
I've been busy working on some New Year's Eve items, and I'll be sharing them with you (hopefully!) later this week.

Bavarian Nordic will receive a milestone payment of $25 million from the HHS. The fee is part of a contract to manufacture and deliver 20 million doses of the company's Imvamune® smallpox vaccine.
Bavarian Nordic received an advance payment of $50 million in October. In addition to this and the current milestone payment, the company expects to obtain another milestone fee of $25 million later this year.
The total value of the deal, signed in June of this year, including contractual options, is $1.6 billion, of which the base contract amounts to $500 million.
Besides the delivery of 20 million doses of Imvamune, the base contract will support additional R&D of the product to fulfil the requirements for the potential use of Imvamune during an emergency. Also, this alliance will fund nonclinical and clinical studies necessary for Bavarian Nordic to get FDA approval for Imvamune.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential.
