Bed Bath & Beyond Tumbles After Forecast Trails Estimates
Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. fell the most since its stock market debut after forecasting fiscal second-quarter profit that was less than analysts' estimated amid slowing same-store sales.
The shares declined 17 percent to $61.17 at the close in New York, for the biggest drop since the company first sold shares in a public offering in 1992. The Union, New Jersey-based company has gained 5.5 percent this year.
Profit per share in the quarter ending in August may be 97 cents to $1.03, the company said yesterday in a statement. The average of 24 analysts' estimates compiled by Bloomberg was $1.08.
Bed Bath & Beyond said comparable-store sales in the first quarter rose 3 percent compared with 7 percent a year earlier. Analysts projected a gain of 3.8 percent, the average of five estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
"Despite the ongoing economic challenges that are affecting consumers, our fundamental business strategy remains unchanged: to offer a broad assortment of merchandise at everyday low prices with superior customer service," Chief Executive Officer Steven Temares said during a conference call yesterday.
In May, Bed Bath & Beyond agreed to buy Cost Plus Inc. for $495 million in cash to add its World Market and Cost Plus Imports chains. The deal would give Bed Bath & Beyond 295 new stores along with another e-commerce platform to help it compete with retailers such as Amazon.com Inc. and Target Corp.
Bed Bath & Beyond had 1,180 stores as of May 26.

Ozu's "Tokyo no Onna" (Women of Tokyo) is a short film that delivers alot of tragic import for its length, timing and execution. It is a simple tale, concerning the lives of a Japanese college student and his sister. Things go awry when he finds out that his sister is actually a "hostess"/prostitute at a local bar, and that she is actually financing his college education by means of that career. There are a series of fine indoor shots, perfectly lighted and composed in a dark, (pre-film noir) mood. There is one great outdoor shot I remember, and that is when the sister looks outside, seeing the steam coming from a nearby chimney, and hanging clothes/socks out to dry. The scene where the student/main character walks in the dismal street is also nicely done. Overall, the film is a great example of a strong short film narrative, and has a slightly (unexpected) tragic twist at the end.
When I watched "Woman of Tokyo", I was struck by the theme which
reminded me of Mizoguchi's works which were often on prostitution and
its effects. With this film, Ozu also shares Mizoguchi's compassion for
self-sacrificing women. See for yourself : in a poor working-class
district of Tokyo, a woman named Chikako (Yoshiko Okada) shares a
modest apartment with her brother Ryoichi (Ureo Egawa). Chikako works
every day as an office typist and every evening on commissioned
translations for a university professor, so Ryoichi can devote himself
completely to his studies. However, Chikako comes under scrutiny when a
police inspector pays an unexpected visit to her office one day. The
nebulous and undisclosed nature of the investigation leads to
speculation, and rumors begin to surface about Chikako's disreputable
conduct by working as a cabaret hostess. In an attempt to mitigate the
embarrassment of the brewing scandal, the well-intentioned Harue
(Kinuyo Tanaka), Ryoichi's girlfriend, decides to alert Chikako of the
gossip, but instead, reveals the information to Ryoichi. Outraged and
ashamed by his sister's behavior, Ryoichi rejects Chikako and leaves
There are many things to enjoy in "Woman of Tokyo" (the plot and the acting, to start with), but first of all it is an interesting film for all those who would like to see en early elaboration of Ozu's style, especially in his use of domestic setting and confined, interior shots. There is also an overt tribute to Ernst Lubitsch (much admired by Ozu) with a full-frame excerpt from Lubitsch's short film entitled "The Clerk" taken from "If I Had a Million". Ozu will get only better and better after this "Woman of Tokyo".
Seeing this a second time in a healthy restored print, I still can't say I'm entirely won over by this early melodrama involving a woman who is scandalized when her brother's girlfriend learns of her prostitution to help cover his student expenses. The chief interest of this film lies in its unusual structure: as J. Hoberman notes, the film is "a subtle riot of discordant formal devices -- two- character crosscutting is complicated by weird eye-line matches and bizarre special jumps, inexplicable interpolations, and exreme close-ups." (There's also some interesting non-matching of dialogue intertitles with the characters speaking them, which David Bordwell discusses in his study on Ozu.) Hoberman concludes that "inadvertant or not, it's a masterpiece," though I think one would have to appraise the film on strictly formalist experimental grounds to come to that evaluation (Hoberman was probably thinking of his favorite cut- and-paste classic ROSE HOBART as he wrote this). There certainly is plenty to baffle over, such as the sudden wild digression to two journalists bantering happily at the end of the film, which seems to suggest Ozu's contempt at public indifference to a private tragedy, a theme that gets a real workout in the much later masterpiece TOKYO TWILIGHT.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
In this medium length Japanese silent film (three quarters of an hour long), Ryoichi and Chikako (Ureo Egawa and Yoshiko Okada) are brother and sister living together in Tokyo. Ryoichi is a student at the university, while Chikako works at an office, and helps Ryoichi with his expenses. Unbeknownst to him, she also moonlights as a prostitute. When he learns the truth through his girlfriend, tragedy ensues. The material of this simple tale might seem today as outdated and melodramatic, but Japanese master Yasujiro Ozu's fluid, elegant direction makes it very compelling to watch. Chisyu Ryu, who appears in many later Ozu masterpieces, has a bit part as a reporter.

Navistar Inc. has secured more than 10,000 orders for International Trucks powered by the Cummins ISX15 engine and Cummins SCR aftertreatment system.
The announcement comes seven months after the re-introduction of the truck and engine combination.
In addition to availability in International's ProStar model, the engine was also re-launched in the International PayStar 5900 Set-Back Axle and the International 9900i in April of this year.
Navistar has received orders from a number of the industry's largest for hire and leasing fleets, including Knight, Penske, Ryder and Swift. In July, the company reported on-highway class 8 order share at its highest level in three years.
Navistar launched its transition to SCR-based technology with the Cummins ISX15 engine in late December 2012. The majority of configuration options for SCR-powered International heavy-duty vehicle models are nearing completion throughout the month of August.

Another Ugly Moment For US' War Against Marijuana ConsumersJuly 31, 2013
In what can only be described as a horrible tragedy for college student Daniel Chong–as well as for the American taxpayer–the Department of Justice's Drug Enforcement Administration has agreed to pay $4.1 million dollars to Mr. Chong for falsely imprisoning him after an April 20, 2012 party, and worse, literally forgetting about him in a holding cell for five days where Mr. Chong drank his own urine to survive, and cut himself to leave a dying message to his mother.
To date no DEA field agents or local managers have been held responsible for this gross error (ironically, only the taxpayer is left being the responsible party in this legal nightmare).
This kind of abuseful and money-wasting government nitwittery is another prime example of why cannabis prohibition must end in America post haste.
San Diego Union Tribune article about the settlement, and previous news coverage, is below:
DEA settles left-in-cell case for $4M
By Jeff McDonald1:08 a.m.July 30, 2013
Daniel Chong, the self-confessed pot smoker who was caught up in a drug sweep last year and nearly died after federal agents inadvertently abandoned him in a holding cell for five days without food or water, is now a millionaire.
Attorney Eugene Iredale announced Tuesday he reached a $4.1 million settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice, without even filing a lawsuit.
The harrowing experience for Chong, 25, an engineering student, began on a Friday night in 2012, when he admittedly went to some friends' house in University City to celebrate April 20, a special date for marijuana users.
Chong didn't know it at the time, but the home had been under surveillance by a federal narcotics task force.
Drug agents executed a search warrant early in the morning of April 21, Among other things, they found 18,000 ecstasy pills, marijuana and several weapons in the residence, according to court papers.
The agents also found Chong sleeping on a couch in the front room and transported him and six others to the San Diego field office of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration for follow-up interviews.
Chong said he answered all of the agents' questions and they agreed to send him home without criminal charges.
But instead he was returned to a temporary holding cell, where he spent the next four days without food or water. He has said he became delirious, drank his own urine, ate the broken shards of his glasses and used the glass to cut the message "sorry mom" in his own forearm.
He said he kicked the door and screamed for help but agents never came to his assistance. DEA agents admitted later they "accidentally" left Chong in the cell and took the unusual step of apologizing publicly to the UCSD student.
DEA officials declined to comment about the case Monday.
Findings of an investigation by the Office of the Inspector General's Office of the U.S. Department of Justice have not been released.
Allowed: Cop To Lobby For Marijuana LegalizationJuly 5, 2013
In St. Louis, Missouri Sgt. Gary Wiegert has been given permission by his chief of police to become an official lobbyist in the state to legalize marijuana for the non-profit organization Show Me Cannabis.
While there are hundreds of former law enforcement officers lobbying with the non-profit group Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP), having a currently employed law enforcement officer being given the 'green' light by their command to lobby for marijuana legalization maybe a first. Regardless, it most certainly will not be the last!
Article appeared from the AP in the Kansas City Star:
ST. LOUIS — St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson has reversed course and will allow a veteran officer to moonlight as a lobbyist for a pro-marijuana organization.Dotson wrote to police Sgt. Gary Wiegert on Tuesday saying his request for "secondary employment" will be allowed.
Wiegert filed a complaint earlier this year with U.S. District Court claiming the department violated his First Amendment rights to free speech for refusing to allow him to lobby on behalf of Show-Me Cannabis.
Wiegert worked for three years as a lobbyist for the St. Louis Tea Party. In February, he submitted a new application to the department. The application did not require him to state for whom he would lobby. It was approved but revoked after the department learned Wiegert was lobbying for the pro-marijuana group.
Reefer Madness: Law Enforcement Targets Marijuana Activists in PhiladelphiaJune 5, 2013
On May 18th, The Panic Hour and PhillyNORML held "Smoke Down Prohibition V" in a free speech zone near the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, PA. As the name suggests, this was the fifth such event they had organized. The previous four were well attended, with hundreds of legalization advocates attending and peacefully demonstrating against our country's failed policy of marijuana prohibition. You can view video of the largest event, held on April 20th of this year, by clicking here.
The previous rallies went off without a hitch. Protestors were peaceful and respectful while law enforcement kept their distance and allowed them to voice their constitutionally guaranteed rights (as evidenced in this video, where National Park Police refuse to interfere with the event). This time, things were different. It was immediately clear from the outset that the police were taking a different approach to Smoke Down Prohibition V, from the very beginning the police presence was massive, with a couple dozen officers standing by and a newly erected fence in place to keep the attendees contained.
Smoke Down Prohibition V continued as planned, despite the inclement weather and ominous group of National Park Service Officers and Philadelphia Police keeping watch. Speakers addressed the crowd of about 100 through the rain and things seemed to be going smoothly. However, as The Panic Hour's N.a. Poe began the countdown to 4:20, a time at which the crowd traditionally engages in a moment of "cannabis reflection," the police made their move. Rushing past a crowd of people openly smoking cannabis, they stormed the stage and began the process of violently detaining several marijuana activists, including N.a. Poe, radio host Adam Kokesh, and New Jersey Libertarian candidate for Senate, Don DeZarn. The travesty that followed can be best understood by watching cell phone video captured from the scene below:
(Poe's arrest starts around 1:50 mark, he is in the hat and yellow shirt being violently pinned to the ground by law enforcement.)
When the dust settled, several were detained and released. N.a. Poe and Adam Kokesh were taken into federal custody. For six days they were held in solitary confinement at a nearby federal detention center, with Poe being denied even a single phone call. The confinement was supposed to provide him with one hour out of solitary for every 23 hours he was in, but this often did not occur, with Poe spending over 36 hours straight in his cell at points. During these six days, he was also denied recreation, access to lawyers, and medical treatment.

When they were brought up for a hearing on their charges, Poe was charged with felony assault on a federal officer and resisting arrest though Kokesh ultimately had his charges dropped to citations. Unfortunately, Poe still must appear in court under these trumped up allegations, which it seems rather clear to any who watched the countless videos, filmed at multiple angles, never happened.
Despite law enforcement's best efforts to silence him, Poe remains undaunted in his fight against our nation's absurd marijuana policy. "The suppression of freedom of speech and targeting of activists expressing their views at the birthplace of liberty is a travesty that casts a bright light on the failure of marijuana prohibition at a federal level," he stated.
N.a Poe and The Panic Hour have long been supporters and friends of NORML and the marijuana legalization movement and the seemingly purposeful targeting of him and several other marijuana activists is an appalling example of the lengths law enforcement will go to, not just to criminalize marijuana smokers, but to silence our ability to utilize our First Amendment rights speak out against this prohibition. NORML will keep you updated as his case moves forward, you can click here to learn more how you can help by supporting N.a. Poe's legal defense fund.
Not ones to be intimidated, The Panic Hour and PhillyNORML will be hosting Smoke Down Prohibition VI on June 30th, featuring a pro-legalization march with the Cannabus and live comments from N.a. Poe (who will have to be video streamed in as the conditions of his release require him to stay off of federal park property). Stay tuned to The Panic Hour and PhillyNORML's facebook pages for more info very soon.
Minorities Disproportionately Arrested In U.S. For MarijuanaJune 4, 2013
The American Civil Liberties Union released a new report affirming NORML's historic data that minorities are disproportionately arrested (and most certainly prosecuted and, worse, incarcerated) at a rate four times higher than whites for cannabis (based on per capita cannabis use rates).
In some midwest states–like Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota–minorities are arrested at rates eight times higher than whites.
ACLU's report 'The War On Marijuana/In Black And White' is a fascinating and well researched multimedia presentation about why America's failed seventy-five year-old social experiment known as 'Cannabis Prohibition' must end, and new public policies created that reflect today's public sentiment in favor of such reforms.
Marijuana Prohibition Puts Industry Women at RiskMay 30, 2013
As more women are drawn to Humboldt County's marijuana trade and off-grid lifestyle, a local battered-women's shelter has noticed a growing trend of violent encounters. The Standard-Examiner reports that, "The bulk of… cases involve single young women aged 18 to 26, who may travel to the area and are lured to farms by promises of work, money and, often, romance. The women are hired for trim work, which involves cleaning freshly harvested pot and preparing it for sale." Most women who survive violence are hesitant to seek help in general. The women in the pot-growing business however, are under even more pressure to keep quiet because they are part of a culture that promotes secrecy.
There is no doubt the pot-growing industry supports the local economy by pumping much-needed cash into the community. The problem is however, that because farm owners and managers (most of whom are male) are running illegal operations under federal law, standard employment regulations such as working conditions and sexual harassment laws do not apply. The Director of W.I.S.H (Women's Crisis Center of Southern Humboldt), points out that, "Men managing the farms can be paranoid over the threat of raids or people stealing the plants. Women's cell phones may be taken away and they may not be allowed to leave until season's end. Some are forced off farms at gunpoint without being paid. Women may be beaten or psychologically controlled…".
The cycle of violence is perpetuated by an underground, black market economy. This is just one more reason marijuana needs to be legalized and regulated. Moving the entire marijuana industry above ground will protect workers' rights, hold employers accountable, and remove the culture of secrecy that continues to foster female exploitation.

We just returned from a two night stay at this hotel. After having just been to the Grand Hyatt in Kauai, I had high expectations. The location is great. We flew in to JFK an there is a bus service that drops you off directly across the street from this hotel. It is also easy to get back to this hotel with the subway, and you are within walking distance to Times Square and Broadway. The check-in staff was fabulous and provided great service. We had reserved a queen bed but they upgraded us with no problem to King. We did not really have a view from our room, but the room was a good size by NYC standards, and was very comfortable. The bathroom cleanliness was a 4/5 in my opinion - the rest of the room was very clean. The lobby is very cool and modern.
My only issues with this hotel were 1) the hot water ran out both mornings during my shower but came back on shortly thereafter (when I complained to the front desk, they credited me some Hyatt points). I have a feeling this may not be an unusual occurrence. Also, we returned after a show and we were hungry so we attempted to eat at the restaurant in the lobby. We waited for quite some time and nobody stopped to seat us, so we finally went into the bar and asked for service. They told us the restaurant closed 5 minutes ago (we had been waiting for a table prior to that). For our inconvenience, they gave us two bottles of water, but really, if we had received prompt service, we could have ordered food.
All in all, I would definitely stay here again. The hotel has a great location and NYC feel - I loved it for the most part.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

Skip to comments.Super Bowl National Anthem 2014: Highlights of Renee Fleming's Rendition
Posted on 02/03/2014 9:34:08 AM PST by afraidfortherepublic
Renowned operatic soprano Renee Fleming did a beautiful, unique rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" before kickoff of Super Bowl XLVIII Sunday, Feb. 2, between the Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos.
Fleming was a polarizing selection to sing the American national anthem because of her style. The precedent has been to have pop stars do their take on the historic tune. Often the piece can become glamorized, with too much ornamentation, vocal runs or spins of originality.
To deliver an epic performance on this grand of a stage at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., it took nothing more than Fleming's natural talent and mostly strict adherence to the song to allow her efforts to be a great success.
I hope this link works. If not, go to the article link and you can get the video there. I loved her dress too. Classy is an understatement!
Classic music ping!
I don't think I've ever heard a better rendition of our national anthem than the one last night.
From the pitch of her first note, it was evident we would be treated to a superb performance. Renee Fleming was outstanding. Brava!
Unlike pop stars Fleming can actually sing the difficult high notes.
I am well aware of Fleming's talent. I was mildly disappointed, especially with her very last note (that I thought she missed). However, when I spoke to my opera expert buddies, they said she was fine, and technically perfect. I'll have to listen to it again.
this was the best part of the entire Superbowl... better than the game, better than any of the commercials, and even better than the Halftime Show (which i thoroughly enjoyed—i thought Bruno Mars gave a great performance)... But Renee Fleming was SPECTACULAR!
I thought she might have slightly flat on the last note, but perhaps it was the stadium. Like your opera buddies, I thouroughly enjoyed her rendition, although I still like the Cactus Cuties of a few years ago.
Opera singers can have "off" days also (although I'm overstating it). And sopranos are not designed to sing in cold weather. Again, I didn't have a problem with her performance . . . just being hyper-critical.
I still love the Cactus Cuties of a few years back.
Next time make it an operatic bass.
"Mostly strict adherence" is now grounds for laud?
Tempo was too slow and she drew out notes, not in a pop way, but in an operatic way. Not much difference.
Listen to this: Chicago Bears National Anthem-Jim Cornelison
My wife, who has pretty good ear, thought the last note - in addition to being unnecessary - was a flat. I thought her phrasing missed the mark a couple of times. On the whole, far superior to most large sporting event renditions, though.
Unfortunately, while Fleming was a vast improvement over other pop singers, she was indeed flat, and not just on that last note. She was flat at the end of nearly every phrase, and I thought it could possibly have been the stadium or where the band was located too.
The Cactus Cuties sang the song the way it is SUPPOSED to be sung....The way it should be sung at ALL times..by anyone who sings it....
It should NEVER be modified for the singer's benefit....
I thought she might have slightly flat on the last note, but perhaps it was the stadium. Like your opera buddies, I thouroughly enjoyed her rendition, although I still like the Cactus Cuties of a few years ago.

As they say in Texas, they're all growed up now, but they still sing. And they are are just as nice and sweet.
Wow! Cornelison was terrific. But I dunno about the gunfire. Gunfire in Chicago makes me apprehensive!
Took too long. If we fought wars the way the majority sing the Natl anthem we would get our asses kicked.
That's the way it's supposed to be done. None of that crap where they just make up whatever tune they want along the way, and none of that "A-MER-HAIR-HAIR-HAIR-I-CA-AH-AH-AH-AH" crap either.
none of that A-MER-HAIR-HAIR-HAIR-I-CA-AH-AH-AH-AH crap either.
Lol...perfect way to describe it. I usually mute that part...not this time, she was perfect.
My all time favorite version:
Operatic bass.
Good idea! I wish we heard men in their natural range more frequently.
Listen to this: Chicago Bears National Anthem-Jim Cornelison
Yes. It was the best I've ever heard in my almost 69 years.
Cornelison also does the National Anthem before Blackhawks games, usually with a veteran at his side. He sings as it should be sung.
When the Hawks won the Stanley Cup in 2010, they gave Cornelison a Championship Ring. I believe he wears it when he signs at United Center (but I will check to make sure when the Hawks come back after the Olympics).
Fleming was polarizing??? Two sentences later they identify the problem with most pop singers trying to perform the national anthem. Clearly pop singers have been the polarizing selections.
Like listening to "God Bless HAMerica" at baseball games.
Best part of the flippin' game. - Sore Broncos fan.
US National Anthem drowned out by cheers at 91 NHL All Star
I was there and it was deafening. And the cheering is not disrespectful, it was in response to a game in the 80's where some Canadian fans booed our anthem.
I believe Renee is a graduate of the Crane School of Music in Potsdam, NY. I was a freshman when she was a senior. I saw her sing for Lionel Hampton at Algers Pub. She sang her standard jazz song "When Sonny gets Blue." He told her she was going places.
Good voice. But he's a baritone...which I was on the boards. But did you ever hear the likes of Nicolai Ghirurov or Walter Berry? Now they were basses.
Then there's always the changing of the guard at the witch's castle in The Wizard Of Oz.

As a tutor of English and French, I am both patient and encouraging, offering constructive criticism while helping you learn. I am enthusiastic about teaching, learning, and giving my personal best in life. I have spent 11 years working as a tutor. Communication skills help us build the foundation to succeed in life. I want to help you to be successful! A published author, I also have two Masters degrees: (MSE with both English and French emphasis) and MS in Counseling. With years of teaching experience (25), I know how to help students master integral concepts.
What age groups do I have expertise in teaching and tutoring? My students have ranged from junior high to college level. They have been enrolled in courses like these typically: English, English Honors, Composition, Reading, French I-II. My goal-oriented approach to tutoring is two-fold: to find out where you as a student need help and how you best learn. Both of those factors will indicate how we'll proceed together. Students have told me that I explain very well, breaking down concepts into understandable, digestible bites. What are my credentials? I have a Lifetime Teaching Certificate for both English and French. Besides my two Masters, I have 33 additional post-graduate hours. In France, I studied at Dijon University. As a tutor of English and French, I am both patient and encouraging, offering constructive criticism while helping you learn. I am enthusiastic about teaching, learning, and giving my personal best in life. I have spent 11 years
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
Having a Masters in Science degree in Education and over (20) twenty years of experience, I have taught public speaking as part of every English course. Speeches included these types: exposition, persuasion, description, and narration. Each one of these speech types would have the same structure such as introduction, body, and conclusion. However, inherent differences differentiated each type as also unique, which was clarified. Some specifics of speech making included the following: Presenting models of speech types, assigning research when needed, discussing key elements such as the "captivating hook," and both maximizing and utilizing voice, poise, and timing to make a successful speech.
Teaching study and listening skills is imperative to student success. Realizing its importance, I began every year in each of my English classes teaching these essential skills. I have taught for over 20 years and have a Masters in Science in Education degree.
Using Socratic method, I start with the basics such as developing a study environment conducive to learning, then building that concept with more advanced skills such as time management/goal setting, effective listening, methods of study, memory, test taking skills, and stress management.

Reincarnation in the Bible
Poster Handle
Post Content
The Bible also says man and woman were magically created by God and that the earth is less than 10,000 years old.
The Earth is 6,000 Years Old
It's a sad thing that many Christians have an appalling lack of biblical understanding, that at times enables our enemies to run rings around us. To take one example: You often see or read of mockers in the media saying words to the effect that: "The bible is inaccurate because it says that the earth is only 6,000 years old."
But the bible also says...2Pe 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day [is] with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
You can easily work out for yourself that if you multiply 360 days (lunar years) x 6,000 x 1,000 that you get a figure of well over 2 billion years. Which also leaves plenty of room for quite a few 1,000 year periods to pass as single days.
No doubt some carping evolutionist will start whingeing that "the bible is still inaccurate because the earth is 6 billion (or whatever) years old. And I've got two good answers to that one.
Firstly: Just because you have blind faith in (a) the inherent accuracy of their scientific instruments. (b) The true scientific integrity of those doing the laboratory work. (c) That they cannot be fooled by false readings and/or assumptions. Pleeeeeeeeze do not expect me to take your shaky assumptions at face value. I know for a fact that false science is being used to bamboozle everyone into believing what they say about 'global warming', so why should I give you the benefit of the doubt.
Secondly: Try and explain this one away. We are told in the story of creation that the earth was formed from the small stuff that was left over after the creation of the universe. Therefore it should be quite reasonable to expect that for instance one group of about 500 million cubic miles of rock that outcrops on the earth's surface is perhaps 6 billion or so years old. Another outcrop of perhaps 200 million cubic miles could be 3 or 4 billion years old. And so on.
To sum up. If the material that was used to make the earth was in existence before the earth was formed, then obviously it is older than the earth.
So if in the future you hear some idiot spouting off about "the bible being inaccurate because it says that the earth is only 6,000 years old," you can correct them.
This is ridiculous the Bible says the earth is less than 10,000 years old and that it was created in 6 days. Both were scientifically disproved.

Taking this with Relora and 7-Keto DHEA. What a trio! I was suffering constant fatigue was tired all the time and constantly run out of fuel when training. Now I am alert, energised and have enough go in the tank to get me through my training routines. iHerb shipped my order to AUS and I received it in under 5 days.. Really impressed.

I was very pleased with this product. I have increased energy.
Good Product
Posted by 5544970576100257455 on Apr 07, 2016
have been taking this product for 2 months now *along with triple strength astaxanthin*, and have observed much positive difference from before having started taking it. What i find most useful about this product is the energy release + focus it gives you. It gives me that extra edge i need *especially for long distance endurance type exercises* For sure though, it is very potent, so should be used appropriately. The price is very reasonable, compared with the cost of getting any sort of herbal-health products where i am. First time delivery was with UPS and was delivered within a few days. initial delivery charge was not very high but i had to pay an extra fee,which was quite large, to receive the product in my country. Second time delivery was with post office, took a few days longer, but did not have to pay any extra charge, so as far delivery and service its i can only say good things. For me its a 5/5
Nice product

Panax is great to get you going in the morning. It's not as strong as coffee but at least it doesn't have the side effects of keeping me up at night!

Editorial Reviews
"The research in Ralph Keyes' The Quote Verifier is impressive, and each conclusion is like the solution to a real-life historical mystery. Who knew a reference book could be so entertaining?" ―Will Shortz, Crossword Puzzle Editor of The New York Times
"Ralph Keyes has made it his mission to hunt down and expose false quotations, and in The Quote Verifier he does that brilliantly. The Quote Verifier is a much needed corrective to the countless 'quotations' that are misquoted, falsely attributed, or downright wrong. Keyes takes apart with surgical precision every dubious quotation, old and new. In the process, he tells engagingly the stories behind the quotes, stories that are often surprisingly funny and always interesting." ―Sol Steinmetz, co-author of The Life of Language
"Nice Guys Finish Seventh established Ralph Keyes as one of our leading quote sleuthers. With The Quote Verifier, he's become our verifier-in-chief. If you want to know who actually said what, this book is indispensable." ―Rosalie Maggio, author of The New Beacon Book of Quotations by Women
"Quotations are powerful tools. Michel de Montaigne, the father of all essayists, observed, 'I quote others only to better express myself.' Intrepid quotations detective Ralph Keyes helps us to discover the clear truth about exactly what was said and who exactly said it." ―Richard Lederer, author of Word Wizard
"Quotation tracers will find this an excellent book to consult. It provides all the known details about authorship and wording of a large number of quotes, maxims, observations, slogans, comments, and catch phrases. But this is not simply a reference work. Reading it is a real pleasure. The book is easy to use. Quotes are arranged alphabetically by key word and source references are provided in meticulous detail. As a valuable new scholarly resource, The Quote Verifier will take its place alongside standard books of quotations." ―Anthony Shipps, author of The Quote Sleuth
"'I never said half the things I said,' Yogi Berra said. Or did he? Ralph Keyes' The Quote Verifier is an invaluable and irresistible resource for determining the provenance of dubious quotations. These have always been around, but with the rise of the internet, on which anyone can attribute anything to anybody, they're spreading at a terrifying pace. Thanks, Keyes, we needed that." ―Ben Yagoda, author of About Town
About the Author
Ralph Keyes's books include The Post-Truth Era, The Courage to Write, and Is There Life After High School? He lives in Yellow Springs, Ohio.

With Quote Verifier (QV), Keyes has added more fodder to the quote mill, which he kicked off with his Nice Guys Finish Seventh. QV can be read from beginning to end, or it can be read non-linearly as a reference.
Who originally came up with "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country."? Kennedy? Which one? Neither, actually. You'll find this under the alphabetical listings under ASK, where you'll find that Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes said something remarkably similar 80 years before JFK did. There's an entire section (under the "Ks") devoted to the Kennedys, especially John and Robert. Having grown up in Massachusetts, I was often treated to "Kennedyisms." John Kennedy usually cited his sources. Bobby often cited John and Ted credited Bobby.
Also, as a former and unreformed New Englander, I was ecstatic to see that theologian Reinhold Niebuhr was correctly credited for his "Serenity Prayer," as opposed to "anonymous," which I so often see. (Niebuhr's widow lived up the street from me and was the speaker at my high school graduation.) However, "Shays' Rebellion" was spelled "Shay's Rebellion," a mistake commonly made in the Midwest.Read more ›

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' Rep Releases Statement on His Arrest
Sean "Diddy" Combs' team has released a statement after the rapper was arrested on the UCLA campus for assault with a deadly weapon.
The 45-year-old media mogul reportedly attacked a football coach after the coach allegedly was aggressively targeting the rapper's son.
"The various accounts of the event and charges that are being reported are wholly inaccurate. What we can say now is that any actions taken by Mr. Combs were solely defensive in nature to protect himself and his son. We are confident that once the true facts are revealed, the case will be dismissed," the rep said in a statement (via Revolt.tv).
Diddy was released on bail after posting a $50,000 bond.

Phosphorous from P2O5 is more effective than nitrogen for passivating the 4H-SiC/SiO2 interface. The peak value of the field-effect mobility for 4H-SiC metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) after phosphorus passivation is approximately 80 cm2/V·s. However, P2O5 converts the SiO2 layer to phosphosilicate glass (PSG)-a polar material that introduces voltage instabilities which negate the benefits of lower interface trap density and higher mobility. We report a significant improvement in voltage stability with mobilities as high as 72 cm2/V·s for MOSFETs fabricated with a thin PSG gate layer ( ~ 10 nm) capped with a deposited oxide.

Product Description
It is difficult to believe today that Swan Lake was a failure on its production in 1877 and was not successful until the Petipa/Ivanov version of 1895. Today it is regarded as one of the greatest works in the art of ballet. The magic of Tchaikovskys music, embodying the love of Prince Siegfried for the enchanted Swan Queen, has greatly contributed to making this the best loved of all classical ballets. This production, with designs by the late Leslie Hurry, stars Natalia Makarova as Odette-Odile and Anthony Dowell as Prince Siegfried. Prince Siegfried celebrates his twenty-first birthday; his mother tells him it is time to marry, but he prefers to go hunting. Alone, by a lakeside, he sees a swan who turns to human form. She is an enchanted princess who can be saved only by true love. He promises this, but is tricked by the wicked magician who disguises his own daughter as the swan-maiden. In despair, Siegfried and the swan-maiden leap to death together and their sacrifice destroys the evil power.

Miss Makarova is a great ballerina but she lacks elegance in her manner. This she covers up with her beautiful lines and delicate form. She is more suited for roles such as Don Quichotte and Romeo and Juliette where more dramatic expressivness is needed rather than regal restraint and otherworldly airiness.
Her portrail of Odile however is unparalled! She is bewitching.
The rest of the production is outdated and the renditions made by Ashton are not worth mentionning.
Inspite my criticism of miss Makarova's performance she is the only reason to buy this dvd IF, that is, you must have it!
One of the things I look forward most to in Swan Lake is the White Swan Pas de Deux, mostly because the music is some of the most beautiful I have ever heard. Sometimes, the dancers just don't embody the pathos in the music for that section much to my disapointment, but in this production, the dancers not only performed a wonderful pas de deux, but truly felt as the music sounded. The music sounds sad, just as Odette's fate is, and I was very pleased to see this piece reflect that emotional range. I think this may be my favourite version of that Pas de Deux so far.
Of course, the Black Swan Pas de Deux, as well as the rest of the black swan was equally impressive, and an impressive contrast to the white swan. In contrast to the gentle sad Odette, Odile is played with assertiveness and confidence. Nina Ananiashvili played both parts so well, each differently. Of course the dancing part was very exciting, including the traditional thirty-two foutté turns.
This production surprised me with a happy ending. Most versions of Swan Lake I have seen have a sad ending with the death of Odette and her prince. In this one, they both live and conquer the villain.
Now usually I compare the dancing component to the story-telling component. I would say that this production was very strong in the dancing, but other than a few instances, I did not get caught up in the story as much as I would have liked, though I could follow the story. This did not detract from my enjoyment of the production though, and so I still give it a perfect score.
Highly recomended.

Nice hotel, staff could be betterPosted Feb 10, 2014
The hotel itself is great. Right on the lake and close to everything in town. Clean rooms and comfortable. Although we had a issue with a girl drunk from the bar come back to a room with another party staying at the hotel and she blocked my buddies jeep in so we couldn't get out. We were in the area for the ice fishing derby, and we spend several hundred dollars on this weekend. Because we couldn't get out until 8:30 instead of about 6:30. The morning fishing was ruined and money well wasted on our part. The owner was helpful in the sense of moving this car but didnt offer any compensation off our bill for the troubles that occurred. In my eyes that is a poor way to get us to come back and we will not be back next year!

A hidden gem in NH lakes.Posted Sep 12, 2012
Pros: The location/setting/view and the shared/common areas (jetty with porch swing and the seating area around the fire).
Location: Beautiful lakeside setting. Perfectly situated for exploring lakes region. Less than 1/2 mile walk for superb evening meal & cocktails at Blue Bistro.
A lovely little place to stay as a base to explore the lakes region of New Hampshire. Great to come back to after a day's driving and walking because the setting is so relaxing - right on the water, and a fire to sit by at night under the trees and stars. Friendly owners really make you feel welcome. Can't really fault the place at all.

Great place to spend a weekendPosted Oct 18, 2011
This is not a 5 star resort, but it is very affordable, and the owner/operators are great people. It's right on the lake, and has a jacuzzi, fire pit, outdoor big screen TV (mounted in a boat hull), and swiming area. The parking is not great, and if you have a big truck, it may be impossible to get in and out. It does make a great place to hang your hat for a few days, and not cost a fortune.

Publisher's Description
There have been twenty-one universal gatherings 'ecumenical councils 'of the Catholic Church. The first opened in 325, the last closed in 1965, and the names of many ring out in the history of the church: Nicea, Chalcedon, Trent, Vatican II. Though centuries separate the councils, each occurred when the church faced serious crises, sometimes with doctrinal matters, sometimes with moral or even political matters, and sometimes with discerning the church's relation to the world. The councils determined much of what the Catholic Church is and believes. Additionally, many councils impacted believers in other Christian traditions and even in other faiths.
In this accessible, readable, and yet substantial account of the councils Joseph Kelly provides both the historical context for each council as well as an account of its proceedings. Readers will discover how the councils shaped the debate for the following decades and even centuries, and will appreciate the occasional portraits of important conciliar figures from Emperor Constantine to Pope John XXIII.
Joseph F. Kelly, PhD, is professor of religious studies at John Carroll University in Cleveland, Ohio. He is author of The Origins of Christmas, An Introduction to the New Testament for Catholics, The Collegeville Church History Timeline, and The Birth of Jesus According to the Gospels, all published by Liturgical Press.

Nice ads, but its essentially the same concept as the ones which had the stretched underwear, also H.N. but years ago!
I think new work on an existing campaign should be moved into a different category, with Guinness, VW and the Economist.
Get sick of seeing it credited for innovation.
It's only an ad.
